absolutely love the fact shogun shows john blackthorne as the arrogant white supemacist that he is, oh he thinks Japanese are barbaric and Japan is a godforsaken land?
oh no he’s the one who understands zero Japanese words and zero Japanese manners, he’s the one who is homophobic while Japanese ppl think homosexuality is as normal as heterosexuality, he’s the one who thinks Japan needs to be partitioned and controlled by his WHITE ruler while Japan is thriving on its own.
i rly appreciate the way shogun tells the story honestly instead of the usual white Hollywood orientalist BS

First episode down.
Great period drama, very respectful of Japanese history.
Don’t like the audience POV Character.

The debut of FX's “Shōgun” has pulled in 9 million views across Hulu, Disney+ and Star+ in its first six days of availability. This makes it the number one premiere of an FX series on Hulu in the U.S. ahead of “The Bear” Season 2.
(It should be noted, however, that the “Shōgun” viewership also includes Hulu on Disney+
