Miori Takimoto: Tsuma, wa Kunoichi episode 2 screenshots and recap

 First two episodes may have been better by being put together as a mini movie because the second episode continued along the theme of the first as far as letting us know the characters a bit more and setting things up for future episodes. Orie(Miori) this time was given an assignment to protect an important woman but came up with a plan to avoid doing that job as she probably would come into contact with her husband Futaboshi. Her plan was eating poisonous mushrooms, she had just enough to disable her for a while so another ninja would take her place and it worked but the question that lingers is will it come back to haunt her? Meanwhile her husband Futaboshi has settled in quite nicely in Edo, most of his neighbors really like him and he ends up getting a job as a teacher in an elementary school. Futaboshi is still on the lookout for Orie but has no idea where to even start looking, little does he know she's been keeping a watch on him. It's a good thing for him that she was as towards the end of this episode he was attacked by some men of the Shogunates but he stated they acted on their own. It was Orie who came to his rescue, she is one skilled ninja and was able to take out the small group of men, she was disguised in her uniform the whole time so Futaboshi had no idea it was his wife, she disappeared right after her victory. And so ended episode two of this drama, yeah it's a bit slow going and is taking too long to get to the main plot but both episodes have been solid watches, mthe 42 minutes flew by and maybe it's been slow going as in order to set everything up for the rest of the series, really hope that's the case. so far would recommend it, to end off here's some screenshots of one fine looking ninja, that being Miori.
