What Hara San is going to do, I have no idea. In real history, Riboku doesn't lose any wars, but I don't think Qin can lose here for narrative purposes. They're on their last legs. Which makes me even more curious to know where this war will lead. I hope for Qin's victory, but historical facts say otherwise. I wonder what Hara San will do with Riboku's future.

    If Hara-san decides to follow real history, then that’s what will happen. But if he chooses to go another way and make changes to adapt the story like he’s done before and give that victory to Shin, I’m excited either way to see what’s coming.

    hara takes creative liberties when it comes to narrative and the intricate dynamics of the plot like battle tactics or a generals gender (obviously tis his story after all) but he's stayed accurate to the objective timeline of the warring states via the shiji.
