Give Mason Mount a chance!
The sword and battle scenes are really not good.
the rest of it is great, though.

Yeah they're absolutely riddled with honour.Another enjoyable episode. Though at the rate they sacrifice/abandon soldiers they are going to run out
You do!Yeah they're absolutely riddled with honour.
I don't mind the slightly tacky fight scenes, think they're pretty good. The show is definitely well built, feel like I really need to read the book now.
Not sure it’s actually meant to be a twist? Kind of obvious.Good episode. Saw the twist coming a mile away though.
ThisBloody love this show! Anna Sawai is also amazing
If it makes any difference:Watched the first episode and decided I've seen enough movies and TV shows about the far East with a white protagonist.
Haven’t watched the episode yet, but if the scene you are talking about is:Thought episode five was a bit meh until the final few minutes.
was that shit with the pheasant in the book? All felt a bit silly.
I don't get it?Just finally started watching and finished episode one. Pretty good but they speak a lot of non English in other countries.
This usually means there's an absolute banger episode coming soon.Latest episode was surprisingly slower than I was expecting after the cannon scene the week before. Some good character building though.

Yeah, feudal Japan seems like it was one of the bleakest times and places of all time. Absolutely fascinating.It's so good. Feudal Japan was fecking ruthless with honour holy shit.
I’m lost. They speak a lot of foreign languages in foreign countries? Yes, that’s usually how it works.Just finally started watching and finished episode one. Pretty good but they speak a lot of non English in other countries.
I was just taking the piss.I’m lost. They speak a lot of foreign languages in foreign countries? Yes, that’s usually how it works.
Must be the cleanest place in the world at that point though. Weird mix of high healthcare (by virtue of keeping shit tidy) and low life expectancy (by virtue of having being at risk of decapitation for the slightest offence - e.g. the bloke in episode 1 who gets in the way of the samurai).Yeah, feudal Japan seems like it was one of the bleakest times and places of all time. Absolutely fascinating.
Other than the obvious - Toranaga (Hiroyuki Sanada) - he’s the star of the show for me.I find Yabushige absolutely hilarious and have to keep reminding myself he's the dude who boils people for giggles.
