Reviews for Shōgun

“Flowers are only flowers, because they fall.” Shogun made a statement, it was already a fantastic, even brilliant show. But this episode truly showcases its true glory and immortalises it into tv history. Beautiful episode, fantastic in every conceivable way. Beautifully shot, acted, directed and

Honestly I loved it when he said it's crimson skyin time and proceeded to crimson sky all over the place.

Best episode of the show and best episode of tv this year so far, the way this show builds tension is unbelievable, you could feel it coming but it just kept creeping up on you, the end was shocking and amazing, Mariko continues to be the best character of the show, her loyalty and political mind ma

"I am no peasant to be trodden on. I am daughter of the great Lord Akechi Jinsai. My line has been samurai for a thousand years, and I will never be captive, or hostage, or confined." Mariko-sama, you are in my heart forever ♥️

Anna Sawai's got a point. She's an icon. She's a legend. And she is the moment. I, Terence-san, protest this shameful attack by Lord Ishido. Fuck him and Yabushige, all my homies hate him and Yabushige.

"You'd walk into a sword just to prove the blade is sharp?"

Oh. My. God. I’ve just sat in silence staring at the screen for a good 5 minutes. Phenomenal. Every single second. The performances on display here, the score, the writing, the direction, the stunt work. Television is an art, this was art.

MARIKO-SAMA 🛐 (Best character of the show). This episode was a rollercoaster! The seppuku scene offered a glimmer of hope, only to be shattered by the heartbreaking ending. Now all eyes are on Toranaga and Blackthorne. Finale's about to be crazy next week.

There just isn't any other way to rate this, this is a complete 5 star episode. This show has been incredible so far, an outstanding piece of storytelling, and that woman has been nothing but extraordinary so far, but here she just took it to the stratosphere. What an incredible acting range, from

Me to Hiroyuki Sanada: I love you in every universe! I watch Shogun for the plot: Anna Sawai 🥵 This was gorgeous. This episode was like a refreshing breeze in the midst of a sweltering summer day. Till now best episode of 2024 so close with Green Queen from The Curse finale!

One more to end and already missing this great show!

I feel so empty after this episode... Just WOW!!! The sound design, the look, the story, the characters, the cinematography, the costumes, the effects, the sets, the fight quoreographies, the acting. -all incredibly masterful and flawless I was glued to the screen for the entire episode, the hour
