I watched the original #Shogun series in the 80s (and read the book) in junior high, leading to enjoying most of #JamesClavell's novels (especially King Rat and Whirlwind) but am wondering what the remake intends to achieve? There is a lot in it to unpack, and I'm not sure what will stay and what will be changed to suit current sensibilities.
