No wonder Shogun, as the first Japanese-language series, has won Primetime Emmy Award for Outstanding Drama Series. This 2024 release is about an English sailor, John Blackthorne, who washes up in feudal Japan and gets tangled in a world of samurai, honour, and political intrigue. As he learns the culture and earns the respect of the locals, he becomes a key player in a power struggle between warlords. It’s a clash of East and West, packed with drama, sword fights, and a deep dive into the beauty and brutality of samurai life.
