This was an American Netflix (I think?) show, and all I remember is a Japanese actress as a minor character who guarded an old family home and carried around a shotgun. She had been guarding the house for like 10 or 100 years? Supernatural vibes, sort of Umbrella Academy-Sense 8-Dirk Gently kind of vibe? I remember the actress being SO pretty, and there's a scene where she kisses one of the main characters on the back of a moving train and then pushes him off onto the tracks, I think to save his life in some way. I remember the show being modern, but she wore like 20th century clothing (long skirt and blouse thing). The show was fairly recent I think, within the last 5 years.
