Shogun S01E07 720p WEB-DL x265
Very pleased with this show so far. Seems to pay homage to the source material. And is beautiful to watch. Casting seems great, costumes superb, little SFX used also brilliant. Feudal Japanese seems incredibly realistic as much as it is complex. All the leads including the son are great actors. I wish I had read the book rather than watched the Richard Chamberlain series many moons ago. BUT so far, so excellent. Its probably gonna get some unfair comparisons to GoT but so what, yes its poltiical and yes its similar, but its just brilliant masterclass writing of West meets East with plenty of historical flair. I really hope you enjoy it as much as I am right now. X. And I hope I can read some material on any mistakes on the Japanese Feudal era as its quite captivating coming from a Westerners point of view. Nevertheless I am really enjoying this historical drama.
