4.5/5 - 4.4 ‘Flowers are only flowers because they fall But thankfully, the wind.’ ~ Mariko x Ochiba sama This was an exceptional season. Might be best of 2024. We’ll wait and see how ‘The Penguin’ is, for now it’s #1. "Shogun" concludes with a thrilling mix of political intrigue, martial arts, and personal vendettas. The author expertly ties up loose ends, leaving readers satisfied yet hungry for more. The character development shines as protagonists face their demons and make tough choices. Overall, a gripping conclusion that delivers on both action and emotion.
