WW Vs SW Characters

Guys,

I think the comparison between the characters in WW and SW being in parallel roles is not quiet true.

Maeve/Clementine vs Akane/Sakura – Geisha’s in Japan are not prostitutes but rather an entertainer. It takes years to train as a Geisha to learn to traditional dance and do things like the Tea Ceremony. Unless Maeve/Clementine have been winners of Sweetwater’s Got Talent the comparison is not apples for apples.

Hector vs Musashi – a Ronin is a masterless samurai vs Hector just a straight up bank robber. Ronin became outlaws out of necessity vs greed in Hectors case.

Same as in my pervious email, I think SW characters fall into stereotypes that the guests (rich western people) want vs historical realism.

Take care and try and not to get Teded!
