"Kamakura-Dono no 13 Nin" (2022) or "The 13 Lords of the Shogun" is the 61st Taiga drama of NHK. Set from the end of the Heian period to the beginning of the Kamakura period, and based on the historical book "Azuma Kagami", the Taiga depicts the Genpei War and the struggle for power that unfolded in the process of the birth of the Kamakura shogunate. And surprisingly, a major figure who came out on top, was Hojo Yoshitoki (Oguri Shun), who started out as a second son of an obscure local warlord of a small manor. With a screenplay by acclaimed writer, Mitani Koki, the Taiga is presented as both a humorous depiction of a family drama as well as a fascinating historical portrayal of unrelenting impermanence and gruesome struggle for political supremacy. The "thirteen" of the title refers to the chief retainers and top government officials who made up the "thirteen-person council," a collective leadership system established after the death of Minamoto no Yoritomo.

For the drama notes for "Kamakura-Dono no 13 Nin", I will present them in the form of a glossary.
Watching a taiga drama can be daunting and overwhelming, with the barrage of names, characters, places, unfamiliar terms coming at you, especially if you are not familiar with this part of Japanese history. And I know you might give up along the way too, if you feel frustrated. For example, many of the characters have several different names or aliases, and they are all mentioned or used to address that character in this drama, so understandably, it might cause confusion (So far, I've counted 4 characters named "Jiro"). So I came up with this glossary to help you keep up with what you're watching.

Notes:
As much as possible, I try not to include major spoilers here. However, the links for each historical character might contain spoilers so please click and read the articles to your discretion.
This glossary will continually be updated as the drama progresses.

How to use this Drama Notes Glossary:
While you're watching the taiga drama, Kamakura-Dono no 13 Nin, and you read a name of a person or place, or a person's position or title, or any Japanese word from my subtitles, and you're curious, or don't remember who it was or what it means, press Control+F, (or use the "Find in Page" tool of your phone's browser), type the word, and click enter. That way, you will be directed straight to that word/name, without having to read or scan all the other items in the glossary.
