Maya Erskine voices Mizu in Blue Eye Samurai on Netflix.
The Big Picture There's still a lengthy wait ahead for the 76th Emmy Awards, but the Television Academy is getting things started early with its juried category awards. Each year, a panel of professionals screens entrants in groups like Animation, Costume Design, Emerging Media Programming, and Motion and Title Design to deliberate over who and what among each category is worthy of an Emmy in those fields.
Set during Japan's Edo period, Blue Eye Samurai follows Mizu , a swordmaster spurned in society as a woman of mixed race. She seeks vengeance against four white men who've remained illegally in the country and could be her father, including the ruthless Abijah Fowler who plans to overthrow the current Shogun. The series was hailed last year as a bold, bloody, and sexy new addition to the streamer's animated catalog that is only the beginning of a larger overarching tale.
Other notable winners include Peacock's stop-motion interview series In the Know and the Ron Howard documentary Jim Henson: Idea Man. The full list can be found on the Television Academy's official website. Additionally, an edited version of the ceremony will be aired on Saturday, September 14, at 8 p.m. PT on FXX. Stay tuned here at Collider for more on the future of Blue Eye Samurai, which can be streamed in its entirety on Netflix.
