While the vote on the next-next mini-series (oy) wraps up tonight, I thought we'd all enjoy a look ahead to the upcoming topic: Sengoku Jidai! This series on the Warring States Era of Japan will begin on November 8.

I CAN'T WAIT ! Sorry, but I can't be bothered to be excited by the new avenger, the new star wars, dragon age, the new blah blah blah… And I thought I was beginning to be just a blazé dude that could never be excited again by the coming of a piece of media. But here: there is childlike candor in my eyes when I read that, there is excitement, physical and juvenile excitement for a series about history… Do you realise guys that you can make a person, sitting in an office chair, on the other side of the globe shiver in excitement for HISTORY OF ALL THINGS?! I think that's a testament to how good of a job you're doing. Thank you so much.

Matches the Sonic Boom premier date, interestingly. Love the outfits, and looking forward to the episode. Also looking forward to Lies, as it is a chance to listen to James talk about History.

Fantastic work :D This is a lot cleaner/less cluttered than the intro in the Seminal Tragedy.

The next video will come out this Saturday. It won't be animated - instead, James will reflect on the World War I series, talk about some of the mistakes we made and tell a few more stories he didn't get to include in the script.

Yes! I was really hoping you'd cover Japan's history. Didn't think it'd be this soon. I'm super hyped.

Have you considered mentioning this series to George Takei? After seeing his "Takei's Take" on Japan (multiple parts about past, present and future), he might be not only a great way to bring eyes to E.H, but also to help with fact checking/etc. as you go!

Also, you brought, with semi-animation, voiceover and music, more of an impact on my knowledge about history and emotion about it than most teachers and TV shows had on me as a kid. The Seminal...just...bring me the tissues! MORE if Jidai is worse in impact! And this is the reaction of a "grown ass man"!

Cool I have very little experience with non-Western history.

I was lucky enough to have Global Ed. teacher all the way can in 7th grade that actually loved what he taught. Talk about tangential learning. I've never study more for anything I knew I would never be tested on. These series's remind me of that passion every time. I personally guarantee you are making people want to learn. something oh so rear. I really hope this is getting to the class rooms...make a series on the history of physics and I can promise it will.

Thanks ! I´m little by little learning to use Flash properly and I feel more confident after the seminal tragedy arc.
