Ok. Episode 8 of Shogun done ✅ I am not understanding something here, did Tonaraga conspire with that old man to commit sepakku or what. Because I am not understanding the weird love these Japanese people have with killing themselves 1 Like |

Catching up on the last 2 lastest episodes of Shōgun and i must say these Japanese Mfs take honour and loyalty, a little too real and overboard 😩😩. At any slightest inconvenience....."I want to commit Seppuku"......like chill bro, 😩. The show runners have done a good job so far, cramping a massive 1,100 page book into what would be a 10 episode limited series run, meaning they went straight to the heart of the story to capture the very essence of the book, with no unnecessary detour. and i also like how the entirety of the show, is mostly based on political wriggling, impact of cultural clash and imperialism and all the subtle scheming and backstabbing going on, as opposed to actual pillaging, war and all out violence, like the premise would suggest, in a brilliant way i might add, that it doesn't comes off as boring or tedious to sit through. A massive last 2 episodes in the offing i deduce. A brilliant brilliant show so far 👏🏿. 5 Likes

Chibudollar:lol apparently, utmost loyalty and honour is a very big part of the Japanese culture, albeit, the Seppuku bit, is a bit rare in modern times, but still happens in rural areas that still follow the old way, from what i read awhile back. Commiting Seppuku aside, bringing shame and dishonour to one's person, place of work or family, is kind of an everlasting social stigma in Japan and that's why the average Japanese is so so disciplined to a fault, but they are becoming more liberal tho. 6 Likes 1 Share |

Go and read about Japans pearl harbour attack on america in WW2 that resulted in america angrily dropping a nuke on Japan which consequently led to their capitulation. The japanese pilots intentionally/suicidally crashed their planes into the harbour, they called it the "kamikaze attacks" So seppku/suicide is a big part of the japanese culture, they started it before all this allahu akbar ppl phr0nesis: 8 Likes 1 Share |

° Brodaman, You need to understand they run a military kind of system. Soldiers and police die for the citizens, bodyguards die for ... The lower cadre put down their lives for higher cadre, those security details following politicians will put down their lives for those they are guarding. That's why there's treason, insubordination against the state, law, and higher commanding order. He knows his duty, he is giving his life for a greater purpose same way religious extremist and military personnel think. You know their meaning of death is different, death can come any time because of tsunami and earthquake, so why make earth a home when you can enjoy the moment while it lasts. ° ***Jarchi*** 1 Like |

Ashawoman82:lmaoo. It literally has 2 episodes more to go and that's it, no further season. Now if someone is saying the show is not "intriguing" so far, then they are probably viewing it from a different "lens" because the entire political and power meanuvre that is one of the main Pillars of GOT, is basically what Shōgun has been serving us deliciously for the past 8 episodes, so people expecting some sort of "big bang" to make the show "intriguing" for them are probably seeing the wrong show. Comparing this to GOT, side by side even, is even a mismatch imo, because GOT had a large volume of source material to chew from, hence ample time for proper world building and character development. It brings to mind my recent reading of recent comments of people saying "DUNE: Part 2" is boring because they expected some sort of intergalactic space and desert war unending for 2hours plus!, meanwhile, it was the best adaptation of a book Hollywood has seen for a while and probably my fave film this year, thus far. Case in point. Shōgun is almost 100% similar to one of the fundamentals that made GOT, great, which is the power tussle and political rogbodiyan. The remaining aspects of GOT outside this are the Fantasy aspect of which Shōgun is not a fantasy piece. So the comparism of Shôgun to GOT is not far fetched and is very valid!. 8 Likes 2 Shares |

After finishing fallout, I've come to realize I really enjoy post-apocalyptic series involving the transport of important artefacts from point A to point B. Twisted metal and z nation are two others that come to mind. |

Who can recommend tv series of ISIS, Al-Qaeda and the rest. Just like Tyrant and Homeland. I like tv shows like that. Seen Fauda. But didn't enjoy it. Tehran wasn't good too |

Omo... The expanse is such a good series man. Season one was very good. Season two cool off a bit, then season 3 moved things into a higher gear. Still on season 3, loving every minute of it.
