Set in Feudal Japan, this show is fiction but loosely based on a real story of an English Navigator who landed in Japan and integrated in the Japanese society and structure. This show gave me real Game of Thrones vibes. Shōgun details the events leading up to the creation of the Tokugawa Shōgunate – an isolationist government that lasted more than 250 years. A fragile peace built on ritual and bureaucracy... DETAILS Shōgun An original adaptation of James Clavell’s novel, FX’s Shōgun is set in Japan in the year 1600 at the dawn of a century-defining civil war. Lord Yoshii Toranaga is fighting for his life as his enemies on the Council of Regents unite against him. Is Netflix, Hotstar, Prime Video etc. streaming Shōgun Season 1?
