First couple of episodes are amazing, but conclusion is dissaponting for me.
Don't get me wrong, acting is wonderful setting is also but at the end of the season lots of thing seem empty. Blacktorne's necessity has removed in last episodes.
I haven't read the book but show makes you expect there will be a epic conclusion at the end of the season like Hiroyuki Sanada will charge into battle, decimate his enemies with the help of Blacktorne's cannons and become Shogun.
But show follows very weird way. And this makes Englishman's role very diminished. I mean why he is there at the first place and what is he accomplishing ? He is just there to make love drama with the woman ?
First episodes make some expectations on you that with the information provided by Blacktorne, Japan will get rid of Portoguese and their bases.
An epic battle scene in Shogunate Japan with samurai is a must. But we don't see anything.
I don't know if there will be a second season but I can say that last couple of episodes does not align with first half at all.
