inu-ou shares with phoenix's yamato arc a theme of competing histories. while inu-ou's take on this issue comes by way of government-sanctioned versions of the heian period tale of the heike, yamato is concerned with even earlier histories written during the kofun period. both of these stories are historiographical; they reflect on the influence of state power over the versions of history that descend through the years, the inherent biases of these grand narratives, and the necessity for constant revision of the histories we share with future generations.
