Will There Be a Shogun Season 2?
The Answer Is a Decisive No
But That's Actually the Right Decision
FX's press release says "The story and characters are intended to continue the saga," seemingly hinting that season 2 will happen. The story of Shōgun season 2 might explore new conflicts, potentially picking up during the Battle of Sekigahara. All of which makes Thursday's announcement that the show is coming back for more seasons pretty unsurprising.
But here's the catch: Shōgun will return for likely two more seasons and as such will move from limited series to ongoing series status. This is actually the right decision, as it will give the showrunners more time to develop the story and characters. A limited series format would have forced them to rush the story, which would have been a disservice to the fans.
