» For those old enough to remember, City Hunter was a manga sensation that captivated readers in the late 1980s and early 1990s. This detective story, known for its blend of action, quirky comedy and elements tailored to adolescent boys, became a cultural sensation. Even if you haven't seen it, chances are you've encountered one of its numerous adaptations over the years, whether it be the 1990s Hong Kong rendition starring Jackie Chan, a 2011 Korean TV series, or even the French film Nicky Larson Et Le Parfum De Cupidon (2018).

» At first glance, it's easy to describe the new historical miniseries Shogun as Game Of Thrones meets The Last Samurai. The show's premise is an Englishman who finds himself in the middle of a fight for supremacy in feudal Japan. However, the 10-episode series is more than that as it blends elements of political intrigue, cultural clash and warfare in a gripping narrative. Produced by FX Productions and based on James Clavell's acclaimed 1975 novel, the series transports viewers to Japan in the year 1600.
