Japan is isolated, full of tradition, laws, and a language no other culture has ever seen. Historic.

A fleet of ships, 100 strong leave Britain is 1800s to find new land for trading, after getting lost at sea and everyone dying expect for Captain Blackthorn ship. Starving, sleeping in filthy conditions, somewhat crazy, and advance stage scurvy.

They crash on the beaches of Nippon, and from here the story of Blackthorn is crazy and too long.

A fact of life back than but too much detail in how people were used, how they were punished and how they were owned.

This the books the Tv show are based on, and a lot if left out.
