Everything Shōgun Won at the 2024 Emmy Awards

Heading into Sunday night's ceremony, Shōgun already made Emmys history, breaking the record for the most Emmys won for a single season of a television series after the FX historical drama took home 14 awards at the Creative Arts Emmys.

Those wins continued to pile up as the night went on, with Hiroyuki Sanada taking home his first Emmy for Outstanding Lead Actor in a Drama Series, Anna Sawai, taking home her first Emmy for Outstanding Lead Actress in a Drama Series, an Outstanding Directing for a Drama Series win for Frederick E.O. Toye and Shōgun nabbing perhaps one of the biggest awards of the night -- Outstanding Drama Series.

First up was Sanada, who was not only a first-time nominee, but first-time winner Sunday, thanking both the cast and crew of Shōgun for what the show taught him, and what it's been able to teach its viewers.

"Thank you, thank you so much. Oh my goodness. I am beyond honored to be here with amazing nominees," Sanada gushed. "Thank you for FX, Disney and Hulu for believing in me. Thank you my team for always supporting me. Thank you for all the crew and cast of Shōgun -- I'm so proud of you. It was an East meets West dream project, with respect. And Shōgun taught me that when people work together, we can make miracle, we can create a better future together. Thank you so much."

For her part, first-time nominee and winner, Sawai, thanked her co-star, Sanada, as well as her mother, who she says showed her the "stoicism" she needed to play Lady Toda Buntaro -- Mariko, on the FX series.

"I was crying before my name was announced, I'm a mess today. Thank you to The Academy for naming me alongside my fellow nominees whose work I grew up watching and love," an emotional Sawai said. "Thank you to John Landgraf and the whole FX team for believing in our story. Thank you Justin and Rachel for believing in me and giving me this role of a lifetime."

She continued, "Thank you to every single one of the crew and cast, led by Hiro. Hiro's over there. He really has opened doors, and continues to open doors for people like me. Thank you so much. Cosmo, you are the most honest, and truthful and no BS actor I know, and you made me give my 120 percent. Lastly, thank you to my team and thank you to my family. Mom, I love you. You are the reason I'm here. You showed me stoicism, and that's how I was able to portray Mariko. This is to all the women who expect nothing and continue to be an example for everyone. Thank you so much."

The show's cast and crew took the stage to accept the award for Outstanding Drama Series, with Sanada delivering a message in his native-Japanese for the Emmys audience and those watching at home.

"We would like to express our deepest gratitude to all the crew, directors and masters who have inherited and supported our samurai period dramas up until now," the show's producer, Justin Marks, said in a translation. "The passion and dreams that we have inherited from you have crossed oceans and borders. Arigatou gozaimasu."

"Thank you so much," Sanada added.

Last month, the show took home 14 awards at the Creative Arts Emmys, including Outstanding Guest Actor in a Drama Series for Néstor Carbonell. With 14 wins, Shōgun won the most Emmys ever for a single season of a television series, breaking the previous record held by 2008's John Adams, which won 13.

Shōgun -- which is set in 17th-century feudal Japan -- is the first Japanese-language series to be nominated for Outstanding Drama Series at the Primetime Emmys.

It premiered in late February to critical acclaim. Season 2 and 3 are in development.
