Netflix's new series, Last Samurai Standing, pays tribute to Tom Cruise's 2003 film, The Last Samurai.

Last Samurai Standing, an all-new live-action series that is set in Japan during a time when the feudal samurai era is coming to an end, came out on Netflix on November 13. Adapted from a Japanese manga, the series features Junichi Okada as Saga Kokushu, who is among the dozens of samurai involved in a live-or-die survival game, The Independent reported.

All the participants have been provided with wooden tags to wear. Whenever they kill any of their rivals, they get to add another one of these wooden tags, while the last one standing holds the chance to collect 100 billion yen (around $650 million).
