This episode is the second dive into life and times of Saigo Takamori. We look at how Takamori went from being the Emperor's greatest ally to enforcing laws that he himself once fought against.   For more content follow me on @hikikomoripodcast on Instagram where I'll be posting photos relevant to this episode!   You can also find me on Twitter @sequencepod, or you can listen to my other podcasts Final Fanservice and Not Another Film on any big podcast app. Sources:
