Gorptholemew T 🍅 9.4/10 This show takes a really long time to get kicking but once it does IT DOES. I think while you watch it, you don’t realize how great it is until you’ve given it a couple seconds to fully kick in and once the plot unfolds you see how smart it is, even if it can be convoluted and confusing at points. It’s tied together really well. is it so good plz watch this show it’s just really great. It has amazing set pieces contrasted by the atmosphere, which just beautifully merges together to make an incredible experience and vibe. Shogun is definitely one of the best shows of the year. Pls give me season two I NEED IT WRITE FASTER… plz 🥺. I mean i’d be willing to wait for them to perfect. Rated 4.5/5 Stars •  Rated 4.5 out of 5 stars 11/21/24 Full Review Javier C Preciosa serie !!! Con una descripción detallada y actuaciones magistrales en camino a convertirse en una serie de culto … Rated 5/5 Stars •  Rated 5 out of 5 stars 11/16/24 Full Review Hendry L This is an excellent drama set in 1600s Japan. The plot is incredibly engaging, and it exceptional explores political tension, religion, and Japanese culture. Hiroyuki Sanada gives a phenomenal performance as Lord Toranaga, and Anna Sawai is a surprising standout as Mariko. Cosmo Jarvis plays the white man outcast John Blackthorn, and he can come off a bit stiff in his performance, but I think overall, he does a great job as an outsider. My only gripe is the final episode, with the series not portraying what it built up in a more impactful way. Nevertheless, this is still one of the best TV shows in recent history, and I highly recommend it! Rated 4.5/5 Stars •  Rated 4.5 out of 5 stars 11/07/24 Full Review Denys S One of the best series of 2024! It’s fascinating to watch the cultural contrasts between the main characters unfold. Lord Toranaga making some truly unexpected moves was brilliant. The show is a beautifully crafted adaptation of the book, capturing all the emotions and depth of the original story. Rated 5/5 Stars •  Rated 5 out of 5 stars 11/05/24 Full Review M. Hassan R I went in thinking it to be a bleak and boring show with high ratings, in other words without any expectations. To my surprise I got a feudal Japanese-esque Game of Thrones with intense politics, bloody drama and thrilling gore. I 10/10 recommend it. Rated 5/5 Stars •  Rated 5 out of 5 stars 11/04/24 Full Review Z Y The show is a fantastic watch, and I’d highly recommend it to anyone even slightly interested in its themes. However, I can’t help but nitpick some details: using English instead of Portuguese, without a Portuguese dub available, feels a bit illogical. Also, the protagonist’s minimal use of Japanese, especially later in the story after spending significant time in Japan, is perplexing. Although his Japanese expressions increase as the story progresses, it didn’t quite feel sufficient, especially considering he’s based on a historical figure who became deeply integrated into Japanese society. Despite these factors, it’s still an impressive show overall. Rated 4.5/5 Stars •  Rated 4.5 out of 5 stars 10/29/24 Full Review Read all reviews
