Any thoughts from academic on Netflix docufiction "Age of Samurai"?

by Fornbogi

Hi!

I watched the first episode, I did not like it very much. I had the feeling it was heavely dramatized and perhaps the kind of documentary that indulge in inacurracies for the sake of having a more entertaining narrative. However I know nothing of this time period so I don't know what to think about it.

Is it decent on the historical level?

Thanks for you answers :)
