Shogun is a miniseries produced by FX, based on the famous 1975 novel of the same name. With a first season of 10 episodes, I can only applaud and appreciate the privilege of witnessing such a well-made production, with a fascinating script and an impressive setting.

The series follows the adventure of John Blackthorne, an English pilot who shipwrecks with his crew in Japan in 1600. This story serves as a thread to immerse ourselves in a sea of intrigues, betrayals, and power struggles between the fiefs over the future of the nation.

The series carefully presents the cultural conflict faced by the Portuguese people in their mission of evangelization in Japan. In addition, it shows us the severity, the courage and a concept of honor that sometimes seemed uncomfortable and impressive to me. The respect for families, the honor of the legacy, and the excellent female roles in a raw and masculine world, sometimes provoke the desire to stand up and applaud.

Shogun has the level of production, the war intensity and a carefully developed script that resembles a great saga. In my opinion, it is one of the highest points of television in recent years, which is a great achievement in today's times.
