"There's a whole lot of point of view that was omitted from the original series because it was thought at that time that American audiences wouldn't want to see the story from the Japanese point of view. And now, I think you have to tell the story from the Japanese as well as Western point of view."

FX take will rely heavily on consultants and its large Japanese cast for help with historical accuracy while also providing more agency to female samurai and other Japanese characters. Many scenes will be in Japanese with English subtitles, unlike NBC's 1980 take on the material.

we're hiring almost entirely Japanese actors,
Not bad.
Although I'm a bit concerned about "empowered" female samurais.
Yeah, there were some female warriors (Onna-bugeisha), but with the whole "empowerment" madness we face in this age I'm afraid they are gonna fuck it up.
I dunno. Even among young retardicans there are major and minor wars for every game where the majority will basically attack others for preferring the original japanese voice acting over the english. I would not be surprised if moronicans won't be able to watch a series in JP

Basically if you watch all these + all trailers you've seen the entire show. And it all feels like 2 years ago Japan at the downfall of their covid tourism ordered a series to lure some crowds back into the country.

Quality TV series for the Tik Tok generation.

I''m a huge fan of the original show.. I watched the trailer and I liked it.
However, it is obviously impossible to tell atm whether the story will be actually good. It could be good, or it could suck balls.
PS Constant moaning and whining about stronk women and other stuff are getting really old.

Yeah i agree Horny. These fucking whamen need to get the fuck out and star in their own shows thanks for pointing that out!
really good start, looks like serious epic series, brutal and very well done, very atmospheric. i know they are not the same but it reminded me the movie silence by scorsese
Watched EP1, and I like this so far.
Not an issue for me, but these shows are always:
1% real badass battle/historical scene where all the budget is blown
9% greenscreened scenes with crappy CGI and 10 extras, half of them just wearing a rice-farmer's hat and a tshirt
10% shot outside in a small setpiece
80% discussions in rooms
Not a bad thing per se (looks at Rome), but not everybody's cup of tea.

That’s a good description of low budget shows, haha. Even Game of Thrones was like that. But I did like the “room discussions” from Rome a lot more
