Storyline
Did you know
- Crazy creditsThe opening credit sequence is a modified version of a zen garden. This style of garden is often referred to as karesansui, which means "not using water."The two main elements of a Zen or karesansui (pronounced "kah-ray-sahn-soo-ee") garden are rocks to represent mountains (or islands) and sand to represent water. The sand used in Zen gardens is not beach sand; it is actually crushed or decomposed granite, small pebbles, or fine gravel. The particles of crushed granite are angular rather than round, so they can be more easily raked into patterns. Moreover, ripples in the sand or gravel represent flowing water or ripples in the ocean.
Featured review
Its episode 8 and people still dont understand what they are seeing
I mean when do you guys will understand that this is not an action samurai bloodbath which only can provide amazing effects and all-out fighting..Its basically like Game Of Thrones made in Feudal Japan. The timeline is after the Azuchi Momoyama period and all the leaders battling of who will become the next Shogun,the military AND political leader of Japan..And thats what this show trying to do..Instead of going in a more fascinating way which can bring more people to watch it they want to stay true on the political things of the amazing and beautiful Feudal Japan..And thats another episode that stays faithful to this..Everyone in this cast is amazing,some more than others but the performances are on point while sometimes they reach to the point that they grip you down with how amazing they are .. Yea i want a big Samurai fight and i believe we will see it in the last 2 episodes..And with the stakes that have been builted for 8 episodes i am sure it will deliver
Shogun is the pleasant surprise of this year and one of the most well-written and produced series of the last years.
