Just out of curiosity, What's the significance or meaning behind calling these drama "taiga", meaning "great stream"? LordAmeth 08:32, 22 October 2006 (UTC)
- "taiga" is loosely translated as "great river". A great river can be used as an analogy for describing time's past, as in the river of time. So in a way, if you were to hop on a boat and allowed the great river to take you in, you'd basically go back in time and experience all of these great events. Groink 09:27, 22 October 2006 (UTC)
- Ah, I like that metaphorical imagery. Very Japanese. I should have figured. Thank you. LordAmeth 12:27, 22 October 2006 (UTC)
