Shogun

Summary

Shōgunstar Takehiro Hira addresses his yield as the nefarious Ishido . Hira had a steadily increasing presence in the first instalment of the hail FX series , position as the opposite to Hiroyuki Sanada ’s Toranaga . Although the adaption of James Clavell ’s novel seems to put the two characters on a collision path , Shōgunseason 1 endedwith the implication that Toranaga and Ishido never fulfill on the battlefield .

In an interview withThe Playlist , which also discusses Hira ’s purpose inCaptain America : Brave New World , the actor touched on Ishido ’s destiny if more seasons ofShōguncome to fruition . give that Ishido , like other characters on the show , is based on a substantial - animation figure , Hira was asked whether he would reprise his role . Hecasts doubt on the possibility , note that it count on the direction the writers settle to take . Read his reception below :

Well , if the play proceed on with the sentence chronological succession as they did in time of year one , my character Ishido Kazunari would be executed after the Battle of Sekigahara .

He ’s not bushed yet . So , hopefully , I will survive the series , but the history severalise me otherwise . So , I ca n’t do much about that .

Takehiro Hira’s Response Touches On Potential Hurdles Of More Shōgun

The Show Will Have To Continue After Its Distinctive Conclusion.

Shōgunseason 2does have a possible avenue due to how one of its most crucial scene unfold . Toranaga narrate Yabushige ( Tadanobu Asano ) how his engagement with Ishido will unfold and how Ishido is essentially a dead military personnel walking after losing the support of Ochiba ( Fumi Nikaido ) . Butthe scene could be interpret as a flash - forward or , more simply , Toranaga ’s idealised edition of what could go on . If it ’s the latter option , that give the serial publication more room to research the story between Toranaga and his rival .

Shōgunstands out because it elude the expect climatic conflict and determine something equally stirring in its character - based conclusions .

The big inquiry remains whetherShōgunshould return for more seasons . It was explicitly set up as a modified series , which lead FX to aline after itshifted plans to produce more seasons following its critical and viewership success . As it stands , Creator Rachel Kondo and Justin Marks and their team of writers are working on getting a second and third time of year of the popular historical saga off the ground .

At first glance Shogun time of year 2 sound like a dream come rightful but a bring down timeline and lack of source stuff may impact the serial ' character .

Still , there are reason to be concerned about those efforts . There are a deal of examples , perhaps most notably HBO’sBig Little Lies , of show that return after initial succeeder but failed to enchant the impulse of the initial tale . Though the dispute between Ishido and Toranga is part of that initial history , Shōgunstands out because it elude the expected climatical battle and finds something equally stirring in its character - base finish . Revisiting the story could indent that memorable and wide - lauded approach .
