I'm through the first 4 episodes, two to go. Yes, it strikes me as a great balance of re-enactments and talking heads, and delves into the talents, skills, and character of all the key players to just the right degree. A good use of the budget. Very satisfying.
As for the suggested drinking game -- yikes, that's a lot of lemonade.
Two peculiar things stand out for me. First, the key players are regularly looking over very good maps of Japan, and I have to wonder what the state of maps were at that time, and whether they had anything remotely accurate at that time. Second, I was surprised to learn that all the key players shared the same hobby: rock collecting.
