>>112985028There are few happy endings.
As for continuity, those few serious changes in status quo I can recall are Adachi Plain (becoming a ronin), Usagi finding out that Jotaro is his son (Usagi is no longer the last of his line), Usagi befrending the Geishus (safe haven for a poor ronin), Shingen dying (Chizu becomes the boss of Nekos and tensions rise as she tries to cut her clan's ties to Hikiji), Inazuma getting possesed by Jei (Keiko now has a deadly auntie instead of a deadly uncle), Chizu getting banished (Nekos are again a real threat to Usagi), Jeinazuma dying (back to good old Jei) and now Usagi considers leaving his life as a servant of Mifune in the past and moving on with his life. Oh, and in no specific moment, but slowly with passage of time, Usagi seems to feel less and less comfortable with bushido and constantly using violence to solve his problems, when he felt just fine following those strict rules and killing all opposition when the story had started.
Did I miss anything else that happened during those 35 years and what changed how the story flows, or even what kind of stories can be told?
