NamelessJigoku

The squid game is essentially a hodgepodge of Japanese project. But because The Squid Game became famous, it brought a lot of tourists to the genre. Tourists behave ignorantly. They're not interested in the genre itself, but they think they know more than others (having only watched one series). Of course, people are different, and I enjoy meeting those who want to learn. But in reality, such people are in the minority.

The squid game wasn't original and didn't have its own plot. You might want to explore the survival game genre a little better.

Shogun it is Western series, not Japanese. So it doesn't count.

Is this possible?

If the rating is on this site will 8.5
Then something very big will die in the forest.

Let's move on to private messages?

Shogun is yet another American exploitation of Japanese culture. But thankfully, they invited the Japanese to this celebration of life. You see, this topic is much more complex. Let's move it to private messages to avoid spamming.

It's not that Japanese companies aren't interested. They didn't need it. Take the music market, for example. Japan has the second largest music industry in the world. They felt perfectly at home. And they don’t have to adapt to the trends of Western countries (how Koreans have to do it). They were able to preserve their identity. And despite this, Japanese music is popular.

The situation with cinema is much more complicated. We all know the contribution Japanese directors made to the development of cinema. And also the influence of Japanese culture on world cinema. It seems to me that the topic of cinema is much more complex and it would be more interesting to discuss it in more detail. Okay. I won't waste words. I'll just tell you about the situation that's bothering Okada Junichi. Japanese companies are just weird. But in fact, Japanese companies are investing in Japanese cinema. They're developing many projects. For example, the freshest one. As many as four major companies have teamed up to adapt the historical action series (https://kisskh.at/801912-chiruran-shinsengumi-requiem). They are betting on him. Additionally, in October (as far as I remember), there was a meeting of various film industry figures, sponsor companies, and others. The topic of the meeting was the promotion of Japanese cinema, project sponsorship, and discussions of future projects. The most incredible announcements await us ahead.
.
But Japanese artists don't know how strong the bias against Japanese cinema culture is in the world. If Okada Junichi project has been released not on Netflix, but through a Japanese company, it wouldn't have been such a success. It would have passed most people by.

I know about this. But it's much more complicated. I don't even know where to begin.

8,0 wow
something died in the forest

By the way, yes. The camerawork was stunning. Many complex scenes were captured in a single take.

Yes! Ryoma very good actor)))

I love Ainu warrior too. They found a good actor for this role)

Tokio

Yokohama Ryusei may be not evil, but it can already be said that not everything is right in his head. Or he looks like an autistic person. He's like a child at heart, born in a bloody time. His character is actually very intriguing. And I really hope that he doesn't suffer the same fate as Tamaki Hiroshi's character.

I really wouldn't want this character to be just a promotion for the second season, and then end up getting dumped very quickly.

I agree. If we talk about a righteous hero, then he is definitely not the ML. The Ainu warrior fits this description better. He's wonderful)

I will pray for a second season (so that it won't be in 10 years).
The original source has 4 books (even 5). How long in total might it take to produce a series for all the books? I really hope so

Why?

I'm so happy for him! He put a lot of effort into this project)

lol
