Fuji honestly became cemented as my favorite character this episode. And the actress kills it. Such a nuanced portrayal with the subtle facial expressions. 10/10
Yesss , the fact she is very pretty got nothing to with it
The Japanese sword was considered a symbol of the samurai spirit, and it was considered disrespectful for a wife, daughter, or mother to hold it with her bare hands. The fact that she did not touch the gun with her bare hands when she held it suggests that she saw Blackthorne's gun as a Japanese sword for him.
Usami probably descends from a branch of the Fujiwara clan
just as it was insane to demand a samurai to hand over THEIR swords, it was obvious to everyone that his guns were the same to him. He made it clear that would happily take one man down with him in defiance.
@@krieger8825 Hashimoto is her family name. Her Grandfather is Toranaga's right hand man. He is the old man in Osaka, who tells the regents Torranaga has resigned from the regency. In one step making them impotent as the requirements are ALL 5 must vote, and the successor must be agreed by the Heir's mother.
Thanks, .. very interesting insight !!
日本人です。武士の末裔です。家族の女子が日本刀を素手で触ってはいけない、、、よく御存知で敬服致しますs
Blackthorne: "Tell this milk-dribbling fuck-smear that I'm ready to go"
Mariko: "....with the utmost respect, the Anjin apologises for the misunderstanding"
Also, the actress playing Fuji is amazing.
Fuji is the MVP so far for me
And I will say it again: Anna Sawai is truly a beautiful woman.
She's going to get so much work after this
Fujisama won my heart.
her facial expressions during the natto scene were perfection lmao
Most television from the familiar producers of television is just insulting crap.
This is anything but that.
A very memorable and fine production, impeccable acting, gorgeous sets and scenery.
I'm thoroughly enjoying Shogun.
Fuji : 😞
Fuji with a gun: 👹👹👹🔫🤑
She would have been a deadly fighter.
@@travelback5700 Maybe she has been trained as one.
I love Fuji-Sama, I almost started crying when she came back with the Daishō
She's amazing ✨
Fuji with a gun was fucking great; I wasn't sure about her before but now??? I would die for that girlie. She is serving Betty Draper shooting pigeons in the backyard female rage REALNESS.
Not so much as a way to not offend Fuji, but as a way for all three of them to plausibly deny it happened. To even suggest or imply a man slept with another man’s wife is an extreme insult and gives the husband, his father or brother right to kill the other man.
Fuji, a consort, does not care if Blackthorne sleeps with other women and it is even their job to arrange it if he wishes.
Everybidy thinks the Japanese culture is all about tradition. When in reality it's all about family and enhancing your familys status, not just in your life but through your lineage and the ages. This is done by gaining honour and status.
Usami Fuji is such a cutie.
Why Usami Fuji gives her family heirlon to Blackthorne? When she could give him almost any sword and she would still serve him loyally... There are surely several reasons, but ONE as I remember from the book, is she and her name become ashamed... She was essentially on the way to make a honorary seppuku, but being ordered to become consort to Blackthorne, she could live on, even redeem herself . Mixed feelings on Fujiko of course. (she still demanded the right to make seppuku) Anyway, giving Blackthorne this fine sword was a way to save the swords honor. so that sword would get a new master with great honor, without risking to become broken in shame...
Blackthorne is basically her protector and her master in a way by toronaga giving him a title
@@SuperChuckkie Yes, IF she chooses to live on, Blackhorne will be the perfect excuse - and protector.
And eventually they become toranagas swords
日本女性は切腹をしません。
自害です。
使用するのは、赤ちゃんを守ろうとして使用した短剣（懐剣）です。
あの時使った短剣は女性が持つ最後の武器です。
My favorite episode so far. For an ep with some of the gnarliest gore I've seen on television, it also had some of the sweetest, tenderest character work. Mariko, Fuji, and John being forced together against their will but finding peace in each other (as friends/confidants/respectful cohabitors/however you want to see it) was so rewarding. I love that everything slowed down to allow this to happen naturally.
And then the plot came roaring back in that last scene. Goddamn, Nagakado. I get why the kid wants to do things his own way and nip treachery in the bud instead of playing all these coy games (without realizing he himself got played), but it feels like he's doomed by the narrative now.
I loved Toranaga’s falconer demonstration showing Nagakado that he should not have hid his role in what he did behind someone else
I love Lady Fuji’s acting. She has become my favorite even over Mariasaka (who also does a great job)
This Blackthorne is more realistic than Chamberlain in the 1980 version. The other characters' actors are not as impressive as the 1980 version. Also noble women at the start of the 17th Century acted with more decorum and grace than the new Mariko.
Because 2024 Mariko is an SJW girlboss. No way this show would have been greenlit for production without heavy D.I.E rewrites and censorship for the goy plebs.
Giving Blackthorn her family swords was not an obligation.
As others have said. Fuji was and is my favorite character of them all. She was for me in the original 1980's miniseries and is still in this 2024 miniseries. She has a tragic and very sad story. And although regarding her charactor between both versions the 2024 version added more backstory for her which was great. There was some changes in this one to earlier version and It also ended differently with her. But as far as Fuji becoming Blackthornes consort. There was a primary purpose for it which was not really explained. That is to become a Hatamoto. One must come from a Samurai family. Blackthorne does not. Therefore to add legitimacy to his rank and position. It made sense to make Fuji as his consort for a couple of reasons. 1. she is from a long standing and proud samurai family therefore there is the link and 2. it gives her a purpose since the death of both her husband and son. As to Fuji giving Blackthorne what she thinks is her fathers swords, agree with you again it links to the having a purpose.
He taught them how to aim the canons. They already know how to use them.
I knew the spiritual aspect of the sword but didn't know of the restrictions until now. Thanks.
In the book her name is Usagi Fujiko-Noh-Anjin.
On a separate note I'm so sick of these stupid narrator programs!!!
AI narration > "Block Channel"
Sayonara, I guess.
I agree, too many repetitions.
Fermented soybeans, served cold, and stinks like rotting cheese like the show said.
Generally only eaten in Eastern Japan, so it may have been used as an additional signifier to show that they're "home" in Kanto rather than being in Osaka/Kansai.
Or maybe it's from the book. Natto is often the go-to "watch a foreigner try to eat this" food in Japan - similar to balut in the Philippines, stinky tofu in Taiwan/China, marmite/vegemite in the UK and Australia, lutefisk in Scandinavia, etc. Every culture seems to have one of these foods that were eaten 1000 years ago, but now only exist for people to try on a dare.
Natto Is so good. Grandmother used to make it all the time for us as kids, it's more commonly made than you think
@@seanpaterson6592 it is consumed regularly in Japan, all over the place
Nattouは戦前までは、東日本の食べ物だった。冷蔵庫の普及により、西日本でも食べられるようになつた。第二次世界大戦において、米国兵捕虜にこのNattouを食べさせた、として日本の捕虜収容所長が、極東国際軍事裁判に於いて有罪となり、処刑された。その理由は、腐った豆を食べさせて、捕虜を虐待した、という理由だった。戦時下の日本では、常に食料不足であり、Nattouはぜいたくな食品だった。今では、日本のどこでも普通に売られて、米国に於いても、製造、販売されている。
You forgot to mention durian, which is eaten all over Asia.
Mariko and Fuji maybe care very much for Blackthorn, give him natto.
It would be nice if they had used something better than a cheap souvenir-style "mogito" for the scene though.
The classic Japanese wife is referred to as the “家内” and has almost complete authority over household events. The wife keeps the money, and the husband receives pocket money (this is the same in modern times and is often depicted in anime). I want Westerners to understand that Japanese wives are not devoted or obedient because of their weak position, but are strong because they are given rights (household finances and housework) and a sense of responsibility. The position of a full-time housewife is completely different from that of a Western-style housewife, so it is a misunderstanding that she is kind to her husband because she is devoted to her husband.She says, ``The husband bears the brunt outside the house, but within the home, the wife's opinion is more respected than the husband's. This is classic Japan.
Great comment, especially for people like me who don’t know much about the culture. Thanks for sharing.
Today on the west, women have ALL the freedoms and zero responsibility, even to the kids. My only fault was I did not talk enough and wasn't enough "spiritually developed" She went full bat shit crazy into New Age madness. Of course I have built the house and provided money for the first 10 years, working my ass off.
Cows never realize what a lightly taken divorce does to a man and children. I raised two of my daughters and the youngest one could easily achieve more in academics, if we were not separated. She was wild and reckless as me, but it ended well.
I always longed for: my home is my castle, so when I come home I don't need to keep fighting. Had this over my head outside, running my small business.
With all the injustices she had faced, I felt they were setting her up to betray Toranaga (and it still can go that way). So I was very leery of her. I empathized with her but I didn’t “like” her. This episode changed my whole emotional state with her. I don’t even entirely know why. It became my favorite scene of the episode when by all accounts it should’ve been the climactic last scene. I’m enamored now. And by the thumbnail to so many reviews of this episode, it seems to be pretty widespread.
Too bad this is not CW show, she will have her own show because she is people favourite
Speak the words correctly.
Hey Movies Vibes teach your AI to pronounce Japanese properly. Makes it almost unbearable to listen to at normal speed
And clear up the script because it's too repetitive.
Sad that in this 2024 version the swords she offered were portrayed as cheap & of lesser quality by Mariko & by some other reviewers of the 2024 version. She was of a high born house. No doubt that there were various qualities of swords & if one had both wealth & and higher station one might have a better set of swords. The gift was significant here as they were when re-gifted post earthquake.
Just read the book
Why do you have to repeat yourself so many times? Very annoying.
What is "Shin-gan"? These robotic voices need to stop.
Just to confirm... the "courtesan" who slept with Blackthorne = totally Mariko, right? I thought it was her and then they had the conversation with Fuji afterward, and I got a little confused. It seemed like they were speaking euphemistically, but I am not 100% sure.
They are trying to keep it on the down low.
Secret affair.
I can't stand AI narrated Videos.. NO Sub here
Haddamodo. Really? Can you perhaps strive to pronounce it correctly?
📽️🎁⚔️
Fuji is gayb
It is really annoying when the narrator of this video didn't bother to learn the proper pronuciation of Japanese words and names. "Yabbu-shidge", REALLY? "Shoo-gun", c'mon, dude. Do yer damn homework!
Yes, it bothered me listening to his mispronounciation of Shogun (Shogin) and other words. Like hearing chalk on blackboard 😬
It's A.I. not a person.
@Mwoods2272. thanks for explaining
So desu ne. Yada!
