I would be lying if I said I’m not looking forward to this. More about Yamada Nagamasa and the Japanese colony in the Thai kingdom of อยุธยา (Ayutthaya) here.  For some cool storyboards for the film and plot synopsis, go here.

Ayutthaya should not be confused with the northern Indian city, Ayodhya–the traditional birth city of Rama, the hero of the Indian epic, Ramayana (which shouldn’t be confused with the Thai version of the epic, the Ramakien)– though King Ramathibodi did name it after the ancient Indian city.
