Need to rewatch season 1 and then watch 2.
What are you confused about? Put it in a spoiler tag and I'll try to answer your questions.Finished season 2 and still confused about the timeline w/ the Trade Minister or the events in his life for that stint. I wonder how many more seasons the show has in it and when it will tie everything together.

don't think they have actually really given alot of info on his timeline, he did look like he recognized Juliana in season. I get the feeling he is able to move between alternate realities. Looks like we'll get more answers next season.

I wonder how many more seasons the show has in it and when it will tie everything together.The whole timeline, couldn't tell if he was reminiscing before the war, but then again Juliana was his grandchild's mother so in the current reality, she doesn't even know who he was in the beginning. Everything else I'll to unfold like the films
Tagomi, through meditation on his wife, accidentally entered "another world", which is an alternate timeline similar to our real world (Allies won WWII), and is seen in many of "the films". (Note that the films show several different possible realities based on decisions that the characters make.)
In this alternate world where Japan was defeated, Tagomi's son[SIZE=1em] marries Juliana, but Tagomi's relationship with his family has greatly deteriorated due to the fact that he has been absent, since he has been living in the main [/SIZE][SIZE=1em]TMITHC timeline. However, he is able to patch things up with them before he returns to the main timeline with the film of the H-bomb that was recorded in that reality.[/SIZE]
After Tagomi returns to the main timeline, Tagomi's aide is revealed to be from "the other world" by the scars on his arms that he sustained from the atomic bomb blast at Nagasaki. He accidentally entered this world while meditating to try to ease the pain of his injuries in the other world.
So by knowing of at least two characters that have traveled between the worlds, and knowing that it is possible to bring physical objects (like a film reel) back with you, we now start to understand where "the films" are coming from (alternate realities) and how they might be available in the main timeline (meditation).
This is WAY deeper than the book got. The TV show is better than the book in every way, IMO.

This is WAY deeper than the book got. The TV show is better than the book in every way, IMO.Great explanation, I was leaning towards that but again didn't want to subscribe to itI first suspected at the end of season 1 but when you mentioned the film he brought back, it made sense. Now the question that remains, how many people can do it?

This is WAY deeper than the book got. The TV show is better than the book in every way, IMO.I dont think he was absent but rather that he was dead but assumed to be missing; didn't alternate Juliana mention that he went missing in the fog and implied that he jumped from a bridge. I think that your counterpart has to be dead in order to move between realities. Thats why Tagomi's aide stayed in TMITHC timeline because his family died in the alternate timeline and its assumed he is dead in the TMITHC timeline
Now THAT is the real question, isn't it? Guess we have to wait until Season 3 to find out more...The whole timeline, couldn't tell if he was reminiscing before the war, but then again Juliana was his grandchild's mother so in the current reality, she doesn't even know who he was in the beginning.

Btw, we haven't discussed the Nazi side, but I love how the storyline with Joe's father (Heusmann) played out over Season 2...

That was the one part that didn't make perfect sense when I was re-reading my post. It wouldn't make sense for there to be a version of Juliana in both timelines but for Tagomi to only have one.
Very good theory about who can move between timelines... if true, that would avoid the paradox of seeing yourself.
I just finished season two. So did it explain how they are getting films from the future?
Finally finished season 2. Enjoyed the season a lot. Not a fan of juliana or joe but I like how the man in the high castle explained why juliana was so important. She did kind of deserve some happiness at the end of the season. Not sure howthat person is alive unless the death was staged from the very beginning to get juliana involved.
Is there more than one book? I read "The Man in the High Castle." To be honest, I willed myself through it... it was pretty dry at times. The show is way better, IMO, lol
