    I have a deep connection with the story. When I was a young soldier in Afghanistan over a decade ago, a good friend of mind loaned me this book. At first I was hesitant to read it because it was so thick so it simply became a pillow that I packed in my ruck. It became my companion while camped out on overwatch positions in the mountains overlooking gardez... as days dragged on, on long 30 day plus missions, I decided to crack it open and chip away at it slowly. The story of a guy stuck in a strange world- not knowing who the enemy was or who he can trust, just trying to survive... that really resonated with me, since I was often responsible for dealing with our afghan counterparts. I kept that book in a ziplock bag for months until I could return it to my friend. Unfortunately, I never saw him again, but the gift of introducing me to a good story, that could take my mind off the stress around me, that I'll never forget.

    Shogun was written by James Clavell who was a prisoner of war under the Japanese during WW2. He suffered for 15 years of post traumatic disorders and health issues from his captivity from 1942 to 1945. How he had the focus and the will to pursue the formulation of the novel some decades later about a civilization that had brought him so much suffering and bringing it to life in a novel is an extremely challenging feat.
    I think by writing the novel Shogun it was some sort of a closure to his war and prison experience or perhaps a fixation that he would never be able to escape from.

    I'm Japanese grew up in Japan, it is very interesting that the period focused on this drama series. The favorite samurai drama for most Japanese is probably before the time depicted in this drama, when the big 3 (Oda, Tokugawa, Toyotomi) were fighting to become the top. The period of this drama is very important, of course, but many Japanese are not too interested in this period because we know that Tokugawa is the family who reigned Japan for the next 270 years after this. I'm excited to watch it since it may give me a new perspective. (Btw Tokugawa is the Shogun played by Sanada in this drama.)

    This novel was so important to me as a teenager, I read it countless times creating the film in my imagination. And then the Chamberlain series was produced and I loved it. This looks like it's going to be very exciting but also a very, very loose interpretation of the novel. I hope they preserve at least enough of the novel in this series to keep me interested. it's about politics, clan rivalries, ruthless plotting and betrayal, a corrupt church and a samurai lord looking for just one person he could trust on his way to fulfilling his karma. it's not about samurai battles. Mifune Toshiro had the presence absolutely necessary to portray Yoshi Toranaga and Shimada Yoko had the quiet subdued charisma to bring Toda Mariko to life. I'm curious to see what Sanada Hiroyuki and Anna Sawai bring to the characters. I can deal with disappointment, not heartbreak.

Indeed, so many samurai women trained with it that it became to be seen as a woman's weapon. Did they join the rank and file of common troops? No. Did they command armies? No. But in small numbers, samurai women did fight, mostly in defense of their homes and castles.You surely saw that she was standing at a gate in one of the cuts, and wore no armour, so they've put at least one of her combat scenes in the historical context where an armed woman would have been most likely to take up arms - defending against intruders. There's a wealth of historical evidence for this, to the point that there's a word for them in old Japanese - Onna-musho. Google it, there's a good article on it on Wikipedia.

    This comes from the book by james cleveville call shogun. It was originally made into a series for television starring richard chamberlain as black thorn. I loved that series and am curious how they are going to condense. Cleval's long book into a two hour movie.

    Agora eu entendi ainda mais porque essa história é realmente um espetáculo.
    Hiroyuki Shimosawa além de ser o ator principal, também está usando seus conhecimentos na produção dessa maravilhosa obra de arte.
    Os Japoneses tem muita cultura para nos ensinar.
    Meus mais sinceros parabéns a toda a equipe que estão nos proporcionando conhecer mais sobre essa nação extraordinária.

    I’ve said for years that someone needed to update Shogun, and I hope the rest of Clavells Asian saga too.

    This Shogun remake had huge shoes to fill & they crushed those shoes. Everything was superlative, but it was the cast that really brought it all together. The lead characters stand out but even all the supporting characters like Fuji & Buntaro were incredible.
    In this video at around @03:32 the actor Shinnosuke Abe who plays Buntaro talks about the 17th century period of Japan that’s the setting of Shogun. He is COMPLETELY different here than his portrayal of the stoic & brooding badass samurai Buntaro. This is a testament to his work. I mean his movements, gestures, voice & facial movements totally & completely contrast with Buntaro it’s like he is a totally different person. He really inhabited that role. This show should win several awards & also catapult many of these new actors into stardom. This show reminded us of what good tv & film used to be & can be when free of preaching, agendas & politics.

    This looks truly excellent! Also I can’t stress how amazing it is that the characters actually speak Japanese except for the Englishman! Also the fights and choreography look fantastic too

    Not sure about the casting of Cosmo Jarvis, but I guess we shall see. Really enjoyed the original miniseries back in the day with Toshiro Mifune, Richard Chamberlain, John Rhys-Davies et al. Hoping it does justice to the original work of James Clavell.
