would love to see this get translated. i skimmed through some of the chinese translated chapters and i was shocked to see just how brutal this manga is. i think it's more gruesome than shigurui and apocalypse zero. very stylish too.
Re: End notes on chapter 6: the Shoguns were required to be related to the Imperial house, that's why Hideyoshi was never Shogun and why Ieyasu claimed to be related to the Taira.
