I’m halfway through the first ep and this great

#

Commercials are killer though, this feel like it should be an hbo production

#

Unrelated but have you also watched Tokyo Vice?

#

Ansel is definitely ehh and tough to root for as a human, but he’s good in the show and as a whole it’s entertaining

#

Ok I was literally about to make a “sho-ho sho-ho a shogun’s life for me” joke

#

Just started it

#

Also got irrationally excited about the Englishman being Jason Mantzoukas but alas, it wasn’t meant to be

#

I'm thinking I might want to start this over the weekend. Sounds like positive so far?

#

My dad apparently already started it and lost interest because he wasn't interested in "reading the whole show."

#

I'm gonna give it a shot anyway

Spot on after finishing episode 2

I was wondering if it's because of 1899's reception.

#

Amazing show. I love it dearly. But I'm sure a lot of the potential audience was never gained because most of the languages were not English. Which annoys me. Multiple languages is one of the things I really enjoyed about it.

#

Shōgun not using Portuguese confused me at first. I was wondering if the Portuguese people who interacted with Japan just told the Japanese people that both English and Portuguese were Portuguese.

#

But nope.

Feels very Chernobyl-like in that regard

Damn that’s a good comp too

Oh nice – I thought these were Wednesday night drops

The boys love it @lost drift

#

Same — it just moved and felt connected

#

And an old school, smart way to keep ||Mariko narratively relevant without unnecessary movement||

Directors cut of Blackthorne before the race

I'm worried about their ||son though. Now that he's by himself. And his dad is a traitor.||

Ooo what am I now?

Yes! I love Redwood Creek!

I can never post again.

I thought it was Tuesday???

#

Ohhhhh

||WAAAAR||

#

Not sure how I feel about the coupling.

#

I guess if something is easily seen from the get-go, it doesn't mean it's bad.

#

Fuji with the gun had me fanning myself. "Give them to me." Because she knew they'd have to go away if she was the one holding it up.

#

Give that lady some people to kill and she's going to be just fine.

#

Wait

#

Wait. Wait.

#

Is it tonight at 9? But it's Monday. My brain is doing a poop.

#

Damn elder millenial brain. Come on.

#

I have watched the past three episodes at 9pm on Monday but for some reason forgot today.

#

Maybe my brain likes to lose its memory at times in order to let me experience surprises.

#

A little treat.

#

I have not read the story or watched the old show. But that definitely sounds like "big bad" music.

#

Is she the final boss?

tall zinc
#

I love her.

#

Just got done with episode 2

#

They did a really poor job establishing who or where this character was from lol. I was so fucking confused, thought he was Spanish or Portuguese, but then the Spaniard who works for the Portuguese calls him Ingles

#

The soundtrack slaps so fucking hard

tall zinc
#

Thank youuu

#

Omg totally forgot crazy ||earthquake mudslide ish happened last time.||

tall zinc
#

I really thought Mariko would join.

#

I am confused.

#

Toranaga gave her an excuse to follow her desire. A ding dang blessing to do so.

#

Get out of jail free card. Noone would blame you. Treat yourself.
My brain can't comprehend her decision.

#

Tomorrow

#

Yeah.

I was thinking they should use the Willow World.

#

But wasn't sure if that parted too far from the historic inspiration.

#

Then boom it kind of happened.

#

Just not well.

#

I was hoping that's what Gin went to Toranaga for. To offer some tactical aid.

#

"With one stick of time I'm going to tell you how we're going to win this bitch and you'll reward me with a red light district."

It's on!

In Blackthorne's case he has to learn to survive. Good motivation to pay attention and learn.

#

Had the same exact thought

#

“The Gang Goes To Japan”

Couldn’t agree more. Loaded conversations in small rooms, done well, will always be my favorite form of drama

keen shuttle
#

Didn’t realize he actually responded 😂😂

#

Also you two need to watch Tokyo Vice!

God damn this show is insane

I want to read the book now but I don't want to spoil this masterpiece of a show lol

Bahaha discord is telling. Anyway 100% to Tadanobu Asano being amazing!

#

My fingers!

#

Yabushige is probably my favorite character in this Shōgun.

Soon

#

I'm sad it's over. The setting, music, lighting, writing, sound, acting etc was so welcoming.

#

One of those shows that whispers only it exists at the moment you watch it.

#

My Yabushige!

#

What do they mean they have no story? What about history?

#

Man that ending was week

#

Toranaga spends the last 20 mins explaining what a genius he is.

#

The wars during the Sengoku period was fucking epic. They should do a season two and focus on that. SMH

#

Finally watched the finale and hmmmmmmm

#

Not at all and now I’m listening to all of the interviews and I feel like they can speak to it better than they produced it

#

I do think it’s interesting that Anjin’s role is a subversion of white savior narratives and he ended up as little more than a jester/distraction/tool

#

But I don’t think that was executed well either

cant tell if this is real or a really well done photoshop
