This week’s optional discussion prompt: What historical subjects did you first encounter through pop culture? Was it enough to pique your interest, like Miku finding her beloved Sengoku Warlords through a video game? Was there something that seemed interesting in a fictional portrayal, but when you looked into the subject found there was less than meets the eye? Is there something you found interesting in a movie, game, book or other piece of media that you’d like to learn more about, but don’t know where to start learning about it? This is the thread for you!
