Storyline
Did you know
- Crazy creditsThe opening credit sequence is a modified version of a zen garden. This style of garden is often referred to as karesansui, which means "not using water."The two main elements of a Zen or karesansui (pronounced "kah-ray-sahn-soo-ee") garden are rocks to represent mountains (or islands) and sand to represent water. The sand used in Zen gardens is not beach sand; it is actually crushed or decomposed granite, small pebbles, or fine gravel. The particles of crushed granite are angular rather than round, so they can be more easily raked into patterns. Moreover, ripples in the sand or gravel represent flowing water or ripples in the ocean.
Featured review
What. An. Episode. Wow. Just wow.
This episode's level of intrigue and subtlety about what's going on and what's going to happen is just off the charts.
Each and every one of the actors and actresses needed to give a 10 out of 10 performance to make the storyline believable to the audience and boy, they delivered all right.
This is the first time in a loooong time that I mumble phrases like "What have you done?", "Oh my god", "Ah Jesus...." when I am watching a television series or movie.
It is unbelievable television and I am actually sad that it has only 2 more episodes left.
Rachel Kondo and Justin Marks, can we get a second season, please?
Pretty please?
Oh, and to reviewer "osloj", after 8 episodes, you still do not understand why each character did what he/she did and also, Japanese culture in general?
Really... ?
I urge you to read "episode recap" articles for this Shogun episode and maybe, re-read your own review after that.
Hopefully, you would then realize how embarrassing your review really is.
