Well done in so many ways.

Well done. I have been a rennie since 1995. I started at games and now I am a merchant of note at one of the best festivals in the U.S. And I honestly feel they have got this right. Here is a cut and paste of my favourite scene thus far. (From ep1.) I think my favourite part so far is her first full day in the village, from the moment she says "Aye aye captain" thinking the words work, the music starts and she takes the map. Wandering through the village, a place that should never be part of her world, they got that so right. They have built her up as some one who would scoff at the environment, but it feels like with each step she appreciates what she sees just a bit more and evolves (gonna be a long journey though.) From psaltery to samurai to belly dancers, nothing historically correct but I can totally relate to the scenes. And they got the newbee look right. I have seen it often, from people I have met years back who could not believed they let themselves be dragged to a renn fest. I will be seeing those same people in just a few months in full apparel. I can watch this scene repeatedly. IMHO they definitely got it right.
