Disney+ have smashed ratings with their new Japan ese period drama Shogun as the tense family relations and regular gore have drawn comparisons to Game Of Thrones from critics.
Read on for a look back at some of the goriest, tensest and most powerful scenes Shogun had to offer - with a massive SPOILER warning. Sailor gets boiled alive in first episodeShogun started as it meant to go on where gore is concerned. Samurai massacred by cannons Episode four ended with the most graphic scene of the show to that point when young Yoshii Nagakodo ordered cannon fire to obliterate his father's rival in a gruesome displayFar from a beacon of innocence, Yoshii Nagakado - the young heir of military giant Yoshii Toranaga - ended this part of the drama by ordering some of Blackthorne's armoury to be used to kill his father's rival and protecting Samurai.
While dark violence unquestionably pervades through Shogun, it is set apart by an ability to interchange that with scenes of intense calm. Blackthorne shows his loyalty in earthquake English Sailor John Blackthorne is the lead character in Disney+'s new series It is a stark contrast to earlier in episode five when Toranaga told his son in no uncertain terms to trust no-one, besides himself, and the later display of loyalty left him speechless.
In another example of a rapid change from peace to violence, a seemingly humourous anecdote by Saeki developed into him announcing that he had done a deal with Lord Ishido to replace his brother, as his troops surrounded their base. In a furied attack, he chased Saeki outside and across a stream, but when his uncle lay helpless in the mud, Nagakado slipped on a rock and died.
