    Buntaro is such a badass. He 1)slew a bunch of samurai's when the procession was ambushed. 2)Led a rearguard action that saw him cut a bunch of pursuers. 3) Survived against a small army and escaped in full armor back to Edo. 4) Caught a fly with his bare hands like Bruce Lee. 5) Shot 2 arrows through a paper hole while wasted. 6) Let's be honest... without him, the wreckage of the Erasmus would not have been recovered so easily. No wonder, when Toronaga imagined facing Ishido in battle, Toronaga took Buntaro as 1 of 2 samurai retainers for the talk before the fight!

      The Edo period of Japan saw a flourishing of art and commerce as Lord Tokagaya's "peace" enveloped the land, but it was also probably the longest period of sustained fascism in human history - a brutal era where life held almost no worth and the peace was maintained through millions of acts of infanticide, executions, purges of all Christians, and murders of the lower class.
      So yes, "Toranaga" may well be the real bad guy. And his new Japan was a stagnant isolationist culture built on the principle that nothing should ever change.

      Did you even watch the show? Yabushige and Blackthorne went to Osaka to pledge their allegiance to Ishido, because they believed their lord had given up. When Yabushige asks Toranaga to tell him the plan before he commits seppuku, Toranaga scoffs and says, "why tell a dead man the future". Until the end of the episode, Blackthorne believed that Mariko burned down his ship in exchange for his life, not knowing that Toranaga was the one who approved it so John can't leave. So no, they didn't figure Toranaga out.

      That was my thought, too. He's finally starting to understand the man he serves. Toranaga's philosophy summed up: The man with the most power is the loneliest man. Hiromatsu was Toranaga's only friend; everyone else he keeps on a leash. Blackthorne may not be Toranaga's friend, but he understands the game now. And that makes him more a part of Japan than any number of honorary titles or land grants could.

    I think people are missing the point when they say Toranaga is the twist villain. He's always been ruthless and manipulative, but more importantly he's calculative. Even though he was willing to sacrifice those closest and dearest to him to attain the title of Shogun, he desires peace for Japan's future and in the end there's clearly no doubt he achieves his ambition without spilling the blood of countless men on the battlefield. Toranaga is a reminder of how many great leaders had to sacrifice something that leads to an era of peace and allows society to evolve. Constantine was a ruthless Roman emperor who helped end the persecution of Christians. Napoleon Bonaparte fought many wars, but he helped shape the face of democracy in modern Europe. Even Gandhi and MLK's civil protests led to many innocent people getting mauled, imprisoned or killed in order to show the world the injustice of their aggressors. There are no heroes or villains in this world, only logic and strategy. Peace and prosperity are not the endgame but a byproduct of victory.

    A whole bunch of people all mucking in together like that is actually a very very Japanese thing to do. It's a big part of their culture. Maybe not for people of Samurai rank back then though.
    At sports days in Japanese high schools they have big ropes and teams have a tug of war together. There is another event called 'Mukade' (Centipede) where teams, big teams have their feet in loops attached to long ropes, then race each other. The best coordinated team usually wins. It's also a lot of fun. Again though, the group is the emphasis.

    I like how the show doesn't shy away from the good or the bad parts of Toranaga/Tokugawa's rise to power. The Tokugawa Shōgunate brought on 200 years of brutality to Japan, but it also brought peace and stability, and it is arguably the number one reason why Japan was able to resist European colonialism for so long. The Portuguese were effectively banished, and the Dutch were only allowed to trade at a single port. The creeping hand of empire was never able to wrap its fingers around Japan... until Japan became a famously brutal empire itself. Good with the bad, the bad with the good.

      Somewhere in the Vatican archives, the journals of Father Martin Alvito is found that records what happened.
      In a Japanese museum, Toranaga's personal papers are found. One of those is his declaration of making him the administrator of the port for Dutch traders. The document explicitly refers to his English and Japanese name.

    Guys, it’s really hard and really expensive to film a battle scene that involves thousands of elaborately detailed samurai all armed to the teeth. TV shows don’t get that type of budget. Game of Thrones, The Crown…end of list.
    Also, it’s smart to not depict the battle because the story was never about that. Watch the movie, SEKIGAHARA. It builds to the battle and shows it because the battle is the core of the film. The core of this story is Toranaga and his machinations, not the overall battle for control of Japan.

      @JamesTobiasStewart Před měsícem +30

      It is very likely that something useful can still be salvaged. Plus ultimately it doesn't matter. The point of this effort is not to repair the ship, the point is to keep Blackthorne occupied and motivated to serve the new Shogun.
      Even if he successfully rebuilds her, Toronaga has already decided that "Anjin" will never leave Japan. If the Erasmus is made seaworthy, Toronaga will have it burned again, find someone to blame, offer his sympathies for the setback and then bid Blackthorne start over.
      Because while Blackthorne works on this pet project, he will also be building Toronaga a fleet of powerful vessels. The fleet is the prize, this effort is just a carrot on a string, held forever just out of Blackthorne's reach to keep him going.
