In Justin Marks and Rachel Kondo's rendering of 1600s Japan, authenticity is the name of the game

At long last, a full six years after this project was announced, two years since it wrapped filming, and a couple of weeks since its big Super Bowl ad, Shōgun has finally made it to our screens with a generous two-episode premiere. Based on James Clavell’s Shōgun, his 1975 tome of a dad book , and following the Richard Chamberlain-led NBC miniseries that aired in 1980, this new version of the classic tale boasts a cast of high caliber Japanese actors actually speaking Japanese.

This was before the late nineteenth century when Japan engaged in its own colonial projects. They had a good thing going where they were, they thought. Why would they care that much about these weirdos who showed up? Well, Blackthorne quickly exposes his Portuguese enemies’ odd dealings as soon as he has an audience with Toranaga, who’s scrambling to shore up power so that his frenemies don’t kill him. And boy does Toranaga hate to hear that his country supposedly “belongs” to Portugal.
