The global appetite for Japanese content has surged, with demand for Japanese TV shows doubling since 2021.
This trend is largely attributed to the success of the historical drama “Shōgun,” which garnered a record 18 Emmy awards, including Best Drama and acting honors for Hiroyuki Sanada and Anna Sawai.
The series, featuring 70% Japanese dialogue, has been praised for its authentic portrayal of Japanese culture and history, resonating with international audiences.
This acclaim has not only elevated Japan’s cultural influence but also spurred interest in Japanese media worldwide.
The Japanese government’s support for local creators in international projects underscores the nation’s commitment to expanding its cultural footprint.
