Quality 🤌🏾
Welcome to one of the most brilliant shows that no one is talking about enough!
Bro these edits are always on point XD
8:50 they are watching physical 100? are they gonna post it in the channel?
Bro the acting in this show is actually crazy. Not a single person isn’t on par with the rest of the cast. Casting Director needs a raise. Show is stacked asf.
I know right, every single Japanese actor delivering their best, I can only give praise to the JAPANESE actors, they are all on their best, there isn't one specific actor that I could point that is doing a bad job
I already knew how good Hiroyuki Sanada was of course but yeah, _everyone_ is amazing. I’ve never seen Blackthorne’s actor in anything else before and he’s also a standout to me.
@@MinniMaster It may be his voice and/or accent but idk why, the actor for Blackthorne reminds me a bit of Michael Fassbender (Magneto in X-Men prequals) so in other words I think he's a pretty good actor lol
@@MinniMaster You've probably seen people say this, but he was the mentally ill soldier in the beginning of the Peaky Blinders. The character name was Barney Thompson.
=SPOILERS=
He's the one that Tommy saves from a sure death (because Barney assaulted a member of another crime family on accident) by 'shooting' him in the head with a gun full of goats blood/brains to make it look like he was shot.
Raise? He should be fired. Why not cast any black actors? Suspicious.
(sarcasm)
Also, the attention to detail in this show is CRAZY. They wrote the script in English, translated it to Japanese, and then hired Japanese linguistics scholars to properly translate it into period accurate Japanese. Basically the William Shakespeare version of Japanese
i think that is a cool detail. But it leaves me questioning why they didnt try to do the other languages accurate. Obviously they are speaking modern english instead of old portuguese for it to be understandable for moden american/western audience. But why didnt they want it to be understandable for a modern japanese audience? (maybe old japanese is intelligeable enough for modern japanese people that they dont need subtitles, but still weird that they went for accuracy for one language and not the other)
@@KevinUchihaOG I think a modern Japanese audience is more used to period dramas having old-timey Japanese spoken. So modern Japanese would be conspicous in a period drama in a way that modern English isn't to an American audience.
I'm Japanese.
Precisely speaking, most of the Japanese language spoken in this show is old-fashioned but is not the same as that in around 1600.
It is true that some of the words are period-accurate, which we don't use today.
But as a whole it is what is called "period drama language", which is still understandable for modern Japanese people.
@@TN-ux5rk You would certainly know better than I would, I was just repeating what the show people said they did
The same thing was done on the show 1899 except instead of Japanese, it was: Spanish, French, German, Portuguese, Danish, Cantonese and Polish. It doesn't stop there because all casting (around the world) was done online due to COVID. I love shows that go the extra mile of striving for accuracy with other languages and I'm forever bitter that Netflix cancelled it. 😢
To explain how the white guy is so good at the language: in the book, the character is a well-educated (because all pilots in those days had to be like astronauts today) polyglot who spoke like 5 languages and picked up on new languages super easy
talk to a random homeless man in lisbon you'll figure out they know 19 different languages it's crazy
being able to pick up on languages quickly makes sense for any merchant or sailor of the day would've likely needed to know a little bit of many different languages just to conduct trade or exchange information in the ports of different countries, him being well-educated in navigation wouldn't affect his ability to learn new languages though
@@Dell-ol6hb right, he just happened to also be a polyglot in the book
Pretty sure its all based on William Adams, who was a real person during the early Tokugawa era.
Whether the book follows that and changes things like names etc is most likely, idk how much was changed though
@@IXxJordan yeah the book is a historical fictionalization of Adams’ real life
Hiroyuki Sanada isn’t just the lead actor he’s also one of the hands on producers on the show. He wanted an absolutely accurate depiction of 1600 Japan, so he brought on historians and experts in Japanese etiquette to make sure everything was absolutely perfect for that era.
Plus, Hiroyuki is not only one of the best and most charismatic actors around but with his world class sword fighting and martial arts skills, he’s practically a samurai in real life. They literally couldn’t have picked a better person for the job.
I suppose maybe he could be a bit more thicc for the character he's playing lol (although I can't find any definitive evidence suggesting Ieyasu wasn't fit af around 1600, I doubt he was lol)
@@jossecoupe446the weight of the character serves literally no purpose to the plot lmao don’t be that guy
@@teeski000 didn't say it's not a nitpick lol, but if histkrical accuracy is the goal, it might serve as a critcism. That being said, this is a book character loosely based on a real life histlrical figure so anything kinda goes in that department (though I don't know how he's described in the book)
@@jossecoupe446 I don't think OC meant historical accuracy in terms of people. Historical accuracy can be in terms of speech, attire, mannerisms, etc. as well.
I heard in an interview he said with the language. They are not speaking modern day Japanese, its more older wording and terms that they would use from those days. Like Shakespeare English almost. They put in the work for this show and the quality comes through.
You guys had it correct first, they are actually speaking "Portuguese", but they have it as English for western audiences to understand. Its such a great show I've been hooked on it and cant wait to see how it retells the historical events.
And it would be too much work for the actor to memorized portuguese lines.
The patrons might have corrected them already
@@zulynava4059 or it would cost more money to hire Portuguese translators on top of the Japanese ones
It's a bit of the shame and probably only invites more confusion since we have japanese for japanese and english for both portuguese and english like we see here.
@@QuackAttack I think that they chose not to speak in portuguese cause it would be too complicated for mainstream audiences to follow and understand, americans overall are not big fans of captions
Roshi was right, the English in the show is actually portuguese, its english for our sake
also Blackthorne is English therefore protestant and during this time Catholics and Protestant had mad beef
A beef that exists even to this day which is wild
Both believe in God. Both believe in Jesus. Religious beef is wack
Damn even different religions had beef? I'm intrigued.
That wasn't just religion though. Protestant vs Catholic was a very popular excuse for political conflicts during the 16th century. Like the 30 year war started as kind of a local catholic protestant clash and became a major war between European powers,
@@ladyhotep5189 Not really, Papal authority is kind of the crux of things, not all protestants are the same either. Also, the Orthodox church, while not particularly strong at the time, was still pretty damn old.
This guy really couldn’t tolerate disrespect to his Lord and got his family line killed lmao.
I’d be a ronin in a heartbeat
@@uncle_ben_rices_nephewstg😭 fuck allat 😊😊
took ride or die to another level lmfaoo the loyalty is INSANE but understandable, in a way
@@uncle_ben_rices_nephewhe wasn't given the choice to be a ronin
@@leonrussell9607 Not him..me😅
To answer the questions at the end of the video, English is only spoken when Blackthorne is yelling/cursing etc or with his countrymen. Any other time you hear English it’s actually them speaking Portuguese, pretty sure they clarify it in a later episode.
Mariko understands his curse words and outbursts so he’s doing that in portuguese. Only time he spoke English was to his own men. Remember he’s fluent in portuguese meaning he has no reason to go back to English when he’s mad. He just keeps on going in the language he’s speaking.
The sailors he was with are from the Netherlands (Holland) and not from England. So, when he is talking with them they are speaking in Dutch, not English.
The Dutch were a neutral sea power during this time period, when the English was at war with the Spanish and Portuguese.
For this series, English is used for all the European languages in order to cut down on the amount of subtitles in the series. That said, they are primarily speaking in Portuguese when they are using English in the series.
@@zimvader25 Yeah I just mostly meant for this episode before he has met her, but makes sense.
@@joenull5945 Makes sense they would substitute for Dutch as well, had not thought about that. Cheers!
I think I remember in the book, Mariko used English and it sounded Shakesperian whenever she did. But it's been a long time since I read it.
The seppoku is actually true to life, drawing a weapon in a government building was a capital crime in that time. On top of all the delicacy of the situation lol
It's not just at that time, it's a huge crime in most of the countries even today.
It's mainly because of how far he drew it. If it wasn't thar far out he'd may be permitted to live
Welcome to the shogun fandom.
Anyone who isn’t a fan just hasn’t watched it yet!
Best show of 2024. Beautiful story telling
@@Batt-man right
@@joseabreu-nn5cu most definitely
Fun fact: "Anjin", which is title of this episode means pilot aka navigator. Traditionally, the first episode of a show is known as the "pilot" episode.
🫥
That's a sick little detail
🔥🔥🔥🔥 They hired a whole Japanese crew (historian, costume, historic linguists...) just to make it as authentic as possible. The characters and events may "fictionalized," but the time and culture is real.
7:56
Roshi: I respect this dude.
*Five seconds later condemned his child to death*
I know lupa about to sweat Excessively with this one,😂 Its a banger show❤
I just realised what toranaga meant by saying taiko would be happy seeing as they can't agree on anything even after his death cuz that's exactly what taiko wanted so that they will be in stalemate till the heir is of age!
Y’all’s show selection for this channel never disappoints.
They react to whatever is relevant
@@GamingGamer22 snowfall was underrated as f to the masses and they reacted to it. Hell, even the low views the channel got with the show, Roshi said that he wasn't dropped it, he didn't give a fuck cuz the show is literally that good... Top 3 reactions ever....
Roshi: "Nah, I respect this dude"
Bro doesn't have 5minutes of screentime
30:24 just to echo others: they’re speaking Portuguese. Blackthorne is English, but he speaks and understands Portuguese (which makes sense with how much traveling he’s done and who he’s fighting against)
Been waiting for this, best show ongoing rn. Sanadi is COOKING.
Poor Guy got the Kozuki Oden Treatment ♨🍲💀
BBBRRRUUUHHHH LMFAOOO
Well Oden Wouldn't Be Oden If It Wasn't Boiled
I need Lupa to oil up.
(Thanks for another reaction btw🙌)
Pause
no Diddler
No diddy
This historical drama is an adaptation of the 1975 novel of the same name by James Clavell which he loosely based on on the events around the first English Samurai William Adams (character John Blackthorne) which was also called Miura Anjin (means “the pilot of Miura”)
Also was adapted on the video game Nioh. William is the main char
If Blackthorne looks a little bit familiar, you may recognise him from Peaky Blinders! He was Barney, the sniper Tommy recruits for his assassination attempt against Oswald Mosely at the end of season 5
Blackthorne is the only Englishman within a few thousand miles - his crew is Dutch. He never speaks English, except maybe when talking to himself. English is Portuguese, sort of Shakespearian English is Latin, Japanese is Japanese.
John Blackthorne can speak Portuguese, English and Dutch. He's also a very intelligent man (able to pilot and navigate) who can pick up languages very quickly. He's also a privateer, attacking Portuguese and Spanish shipping on behalf of the crown, but of course to them he is nothing more than a pirate. This show is great because it really tries to be authentic, even if the general viewer is not well-versed in Japanese history. But there are many details that can delight people on repeat viewings.
Fun fact for lupasan they don’t have hurricanes they have typhoons because of location on the planet the wind spins the other direction
This show is amazing. Every danm character .
I heard people complain the " Lead " is White, ... it'd based of a Historical figure. The dude was the dude depicted.
He was at his last Ends, and he did what he could.
He didn't come from a Rich Family, he wasn't a lord or religious traveller .
He was literally just a Man stuck in a world he barely understood .
The best depiction of feudal Japan. Nothing comes close. Masterpiece.
“He just look like he’s a headache” that he is😭😭😭
Lupa: we watching this sub or dub?
Everyone: yes
I HAVE BEEN WAITING FOR 40 DAYS AND 40 NIGHTS FOR THIS!!
This show is insane. The cast, quality and score is top notch
Yes for us they are speaking English for westerners who can understand what they are saying, cause in real life they are speaking Portuguese and Japanese.
I'm so hyped y'all decided to react to Shogun!!!! Can't wait for more episodes 🔥
Finally we get the goat series rn. Some ppl say its too slow but im enjoying the hell out of Shogun
On a short history context: Spain and Portugal were top naval forces. Both catholic as well. They had beef with other naval powerhouses like England and Netherland, wich were protestant. Spain and Portugal found Japan, started to negotiate with them got ahead of its rivals. That explains why John is and english pilot on a dutch ship
I LOVE your reviews of WARRIOR, and look forward to your takes on SHOGUN!
Finallyyy!!! Been watching this every week and was waiting for the Roshi Squad to react, lessgggooo!!! 🔥🔥🔥
So glad y'all are doing this
Imagine now, you are Japanese and your boats are designed completely differently much smaller too, then you see a huge wooden European boat pull up, looking like the Black Pearl with it sails destroyed, I would pray to every God out of fear!
Finally, was wondering when you guys would see it! 🎉
I was hoping yall would get into this! It’s one of my new fav shows, super excited for your thoughts on it!
About time you guys got into this show! Can’t wait!
lol I ain’t ever seen Sheera be wrong… this is a first… Wow. The Portuguese is being spoken in English for the audience.
She's actually wrong a decent amount she just covers for herself by saying 'I know' when it's explained to her and when Lupas right they don't accept because they just assume he's wrong.
Yes, Blackthorn is speaking Portuguese. It's just English for us so we can understand
Yes, on the show English is actually Portuguese. John Blackthorne speaks several languages: English, Dutch, Latin, Portuguese, and probably Spanish. His skill at learning languages comes in handy.
yess!! thanks for doing Shogun!!!
Gang Gang! Hyped for the reaction. Watching from Temple Terrace
Ok, SOOOOOO GLAD y'all are reacting to this!
i really appreciated the scene where blackmoore and the priest were arrguing. the protestant and catholic division ran deep. nicely acted!!
Protestants and Catholics slaughtered each other for about 200 years in Europe
Oh god thank you!!!! I was waiting for you guys to react to this 🔥
Always found the not being able to swim strange but I spoke to a man who was ex navy and he said where would you swim to? XD
showrunner credits for the series are Justin Marks and Rachel Condo
novel was written by james clavell
Ah yesssss I've been waiting for this!!!
Finally. Was hoping you guys will watch this🎉❤
Ive been waiting for the shogun reactions its time 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥
the show is actually based on the real battle of sekigahara and the white guy is supposed to be William Adams who became the only English samurai
Love the 2k12 throwback in your outro song
Bruh not the editor putting in a Shera ambulance 😂😂😂
Theyre speaking Portuguese but it's in english for us.
Been waiting for this one guys.
So the book this show is based on was based on a real event that actually happened in Japan.
The only thing that was really changed in the book was the characters names, making it "fictionalized"
I was waiting on yall to start this 🔥
Yes. FINALLY.
Also, 3 Body Problem reaction when?????
Bro. Its been since 1600 that im waiting for this
I’m actually enjoying it, really makes me wanna read the book and watch the original 1975 miniseries. One of the reasons why I was see the Osaka Castle next time I come back to Japan.
YES! I’m so glad they’re watching this!
this is the best tv series out rn, every episode just gets better & better
They are using English to represent all non-Japanese languages. So yes, he is speaking Portuguese to the priests and Rodrigues and when he was speaking to his men in the hole he was actually speaking Dutch.
I started Shogun today because I want to watch your reaction. Time well spent. So here I am now. ✋🏻
Been waiting for y’all to react to this. One of the best shows on tv right now
They're speaking portuguese but it's english for us, they made it easier for the people to watch instead of having to pay attention on 3 different languages being spoken at once, so Roshi was on the money with that, it's portuguese being portrayed when they're speaking english with each other.
Guys I am from south africa... thank u for reacting to this... I will enjoy it because of u
The Last Samurai is one of my favorite movies of all time and this has been hitting on a lot of the same notes. Soooo fucking good so far.
This is a decadeish after the Spanish Armada being defeated. England and Holland are at war with Spain and Portugal This story is essentially true but the author changed names and moved events around a bit.
LETS GOOOO SHOGUN REACTION!!!
I've been waiting for this amazing moment
I been waiting for this to drop
Hell yeah, you guys caught on
Here we go!
This show is amazing!!! You guys won’t regret it☺️
Found out today George RR Martin said to have drawn inspiration from this book!
Nah the editing is insane amazing intro not many care to put small details they can find themselves that extra love gives the intro and editing that cherry on top keep doing what your doing !
sheera’s scream with the ambulance threw me 😂
OMG!!! Bout damn time 😁. I’m 71 yrs old & was literally dying waiting for you guys to join the party!!! Was vacillating b/t waiting or continuing without you. Now my rewatch can begin!! Hurry up ; catch up please 😍😘
They based John Blackthorn on William Adams (Miura Anjin) was an English navigator who sailed with a Dutch trading fleet to the far East and landed in Japan in 1600. He became a vassal under the Shogun, Tokugawa Ieyasu, was bestowed with a title, lands and swords, and became the first SAMURAI from England.
LETS GOOOOOO 👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽
FINALLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLY. been waiting for yall to react to this show lmao. Now i can resubscribe to your patreon xD
English is the substitute for Portuguese on the show. FYI, the actual people when these events took place were speaking Portuguese, and the person john's character is based on spoke Portuguese. The priest that came to Japan were Portuguese Jesuits. It would not make sense that if John is the first English man to get to japan, and they did not know what England is, that Japanese characters would speak English.
YESSSS YALL ARE WATCHING THIS SHOW
Hellz yeaaaaaaaa glad you guys watching this show, its fire!
You guys are probably the first reactors I've seen use subtitles. Idk why others don't, it really does help with some confusing things here and there. Like, I love Rodrigues, but I wouldn't understand half the things he says without subtitles. lol
the scream and ambulance gif killed meee
such a great show! ♥
I've been waiting for this reaction 🔥. Now I hope X men 97 isn't far off
Waiting for more..
Been waiting on this one
FINALLY. I'm honestly shocked you guys are only just now watching this!!!
You guys will love this one.
