Japan's entertainment industry must "catch the wave" of global streaming hits like "Shogun," according to one of the stars of new Amazon television show "Like A Dragon: Yakuza."
The crime-thriller series — unveiled at Comic-Con over the weekend, and out on Prime Video in October — is based on a popular and long-running Sega video game series about Tokyo crime gangs.
