Fits with Adams/Blackthorne not receiving permission to return to England for 15 years at which point he's much older and stays in Japan. He builds several western-style ships for Tokugawa and mounts several expeditions for trade and exploration. He also marries and has two children.

Agreed. Blackthorne has become the 8-fold fence Mariko spoke of in an earlier episode. I think he will always dream of returning to Europe again, but at the same time thrive in Japan which is also a dream, hence 'Dream Within A Dream.' Choices are made, but always the question, "but what if I did it differently?"

Lol, it simply implies Toranaga being overly ambitious. He manipulated them perfectly like a Chess Pieces and Him being a Chess Grandmaster. After settling or dealing with his current problem which is Ishido he will eventually aim to become a shogun on which he admitted indirectly to Yabushige before he beheaded him that is the reason why Yabushige smiles at ease knowing there is no great honor to be written in the History to be beheaded by the Future-Shogun Toranaga Himself. It also means Toranaga will eventually dispose of Taiko's (Toyotomi Hideyoshi) Heir in order to fulfill his dream. Hence, Dream within A Dreams.

i think when he hears “why tell a dead man the future” he kinda realized his nephew was relaying everything hes been upto to shogun from the very start since that what he told him in very 1st episode when he was having 2nd thoughts on his loyalty. he knew the betrays going on and still let him be around him to be part of overall plan of being ascended to shogun. and prolly very impressed with it. that was my take.

The image of old Blackthorn was a dream. It is Blackthorn envisioning himself as an old man with the spoils of his ambition. When he decides to sacrifice himself and commit seppuku in protest of the treatment of Ajiro he lets go of the dream. That's why his line "fuck it, we live and we die," is so resonant.

FUN FACT: It turns out that the ashes of James Clavel, the author of Shogun, were also spread in that very same lake where Blackthorne takes Fuji to spread her husband and child's ashes. And the producers of the show didn't even know! Clavel's daughters and grandaughters were invited to set when they shot that scene because it was close to where they lived, and they began getting incredibly emotional as they realized what scene was being shot.

It's amazing that Toranaga-sama won the war even before it started. With everything set in stone, especially through Mariko-sama's ordeal, and Anjin-sama's proof of loyalty, the war didn't need to have so much bloodshed, a few, but not as many. This series continues to surprise me week after week. It didn't need to have a great epic battle to show off its story, but what mattered most was the characters and how they did the drama excellently.

​@@princen8213Not a flash forward, a dream. William Adams (the real John Blackthorn) never left Japan. He oversaw construction of a fleet for Tokugawa (the real Toranaga) and continued advising him on foreign trade and the Spanish and Portuguese Christians, helped establish trade relationships with the Dutch, founded an ultimately unsuccessful English trading company, became a captain in Tokugawa's red seal trade ships, and settled down with the daughter of a minor official and had two children. During the sekiban, as a hatomoto, he was one of the few Westerners allowed to remain in Japan as a citizen. He died in his late 50s, and his son, Josef, inherited his fief, took a Japanese name, and his line faded into obscurity. Adams had some *very minor* influence on two events later in the shogunate: The first, about eight years after the battle of Sekigahara, occurred when a minor Japanese Catholic lord captaining one of Tokugawa's red seal ships was attacked by the Portuguese off the coast of Macao. Tokugawa permitted that lord to avenge his lost men by sinking the Portuguese ship responsible, but the lord wanted to parley that into expanding his fief, and conspired with other Catholic vassals and corrupt officials in a somewhat expansive but inept plot. After it came to light, and in part because of Adams' advice concerning the deceptions of the Catholics, Tokugawa forced all his vassals to renounce Christianity. Some 50 years later this leads to the Shimabara Rebellion, the banning of Christianity, and widespread persecution of Christians in Japan. The second, Adams helped negotiate the purchase of the cannons that Tokugawa would eventually use to siege Osaka, in order to kill the Taiko's heir and his mother, Lady Yodo (real Ochiba), when the boy comes of age.

I was also fascinated to realize, that when Anjin first arrived to the village that the people there treated him as a bad omen or tatarigami, but in this episode the Anjin spared the lives of the village people of Ajiro from Toranaga's ruse by offering his life to Toranaga. Now people may be having more respect for the Anjin, even Buntaro acknowledging it in the last few minutes of the episode. Also his dream of becoming an old man ended when he let go of Mariko's cross to the river, I think that the writing there was very well done ❤

This is pretty much the way the book ends. John, like the real William Adams, never returned to England. He died in 1620. But, he had won his war with the Portuguese. They fell out of favor before his passing, and were eventually expelled from Japan. William Adams married a Japanese woman and they had several children. He reportedly regularly sent funds to his English family until he died.

Good point. The real Toranaga (Tokugawa) was considered by most Japanese to be a more just ruler (and better politician) than most of the Daimyos of this period, including Oda Nobunaga and Toyotomi Hideyoshi (The Taiko). But he was often the bad guy and quite capable of being a tyrant when he felt it was necessary. There is a Japanese saying about these three great unifiers of the end of the Sengoku (Civil War) Period. There is a bird and all three are sitting there and want it to sing. Nobunaga (Lord Kurodo in this show, the one Mariko's father killed) says "If the bird doesn't sing, kill it." Hideyoshi (The Taiko) says "If the bird doesn't sing, make it sing." and Tokugawa (Toranaga) says "If the bird doesn't sing, wait for it to sing."

Toranaga wanted a peaceful world without war. Therefore, I think it is significant that this drama ended the series without any battle scenes. Toranaga tells everything about what will happen in the future in a conversation with Yabushige.

Tokugawa gave Adams conditional permission to leave, meaning he could only leave for short periods of time and not travel far. That is he did not give him permission to return to England or Holland. Hidetada gave him permission to leave Japan entirely. Adams' cause of death is unknown. All that is known is that on May 16, 1620 he fill quite ill and called his friends Richard Cocks and Willian Eaton to his bedside to record his last will and testament. They suspected he died from malaria that he caught in Cochinchina (Vietnam), or a fall from his horse while hunting which he never completely recovered from. Granted that is less likely, than the former. So, to be more accurate I should have stated that he died from an illness.

Ochiba and her child* Also that was technically their fault. They were openly gathering arms against Ieyasu to seize back control of the country. Then again, yes that is probably what Ieyasu wanted as if he could kill off Hideyoshi’s line, that would mean that no one else could oppose him. Therefore, securing peace in Japan and allowing his dynasty to rule for over 250 years. Edit: Additionally, another dark fact is that Hideyori had an infant son, he did not have the chance to take his son’s life himself, so the infant was killed by the Tokugawa Samurai and brought before Ieyasu. Also, it is said that there were so many heads collected, that they filled the road from Osaka to Kyoto.

@@ignas49 No in actual history. Tokugawa Ieyasu (who Toranaga is based on) seized power at the Battle of Sekigahara and founded the Tokugawa Shogunate. This effectively ended the Toyotomi Government (The government made by the Taiko) and therefore the Heir, Toyotomi Hideyori, lost his power to become ruler of Japan. His mother Yodo Dono (who Ochiba is based on) obviously didn’t like the fact that her son had just been practically dethroned. So she poisoned her son against Ieyasu and he began to grow ambitious. However, this is exactly what Ieyasu wanted, as that would mean wiping out the Toyotomi line, leaving no opposition to his dynasty. In the end, he succeeded and Hideyoshi’s whole clan was annihilated.

William Adams, also known as Miura Anjin He was Japan's first Western samurai. Actually, in Japan, Anjin is written about in school textbooks. I learned about him at school. Tokugawa Ieyasu had Anjin as a friend and diplomatic advisor. After that, he became fluent in Japanese and spent his life building Western-style sailing ships. He and the villagers became very friendly with each other, and they would invite them to parties and treat them to beef, which the villagers rarely get to eat. He and his Japanese wife had two sons. Even today, there is a William Adams Memorial Park in Japan, where a society is held to honor his achievements. British Ambassador to Japan, Dutch, British, Mexican, and Japanese people who edge to Anjin participate. I enjoyed your reaction videos. Thank you so much.

He brought the captured Ishido back and buried him to his neck in a slum where passersby were invited to saw at his neck with a bamboo saw. He lasted 3 days.

At the end, when the ship is pulled up, Anjin is in command, and you can feel the historical lord of the Miura Peninsula in the background. Oumi has a hunch that Toranaga may give him another land and move on. . . . Tadanobu Asano's performance as Yabushige in episode 10 was very good. Thank you for all the fun reactions each time. If you have a chance to travel to Japan, please be sure to check out the monument to Miura Anjin, which is located behind Anjin's house. The tomb of Ieyasu, the model for Toranaga, is Nikko Toshogu Shrine. It has become a wonderful tourist destination. A straight line from Ieyasu's grave leads to Edo Castle. It was built there by the second generation of the Tokugawa shogunate, with the meaning that Ieyasu would watch over the prosperity of Edo and Japan even after his death.

Supplement. I noticed this after it was pointed out on a reaction channel by another Western person, but Yabushige's final death haiku seems to have been translated quite differently. Either is fine as long as you can convey his feelings, but the English translation of Yabushige's death poem that OUMI actually read out in Japanese is completely different. By the way, the haiku that Oumi read out in Japanese is: "Don't burn the dead body, don't bury it, let it be exposed in the open, and feed the hungry dogs." In any case, this is also Yabushige's YAEGAKI.

When Torunaga let that bird go and said 'go bear many daughters' it was kinda like him saying goodbye to Mariko who was very useful to him but also symbolic cos she never 'hunted' before until Torunaga invited her to one and she marvelled at the 'steel bird' in a way its like he's releasing her from her duty and is mourning in his own way. I love the use of poems in this show to reveal a person's inner heart/secret heart. Mariko's words are always lauded as unbeatable and in her poem Ochiba asked her son how he would continue it. The Heir's words show his innocence - he sees the possibilities of fruits and flowers. But Ochiba ocntinues with the Wind. When Toranaga talks with Yabu about commandingthe wind you realise that she's speaking of him and that is when she reveals her secret alliance with him. I guess that the poem Mariko wrote and her continuation was what she wrote to Toranaga and is enough to state her intent of their alliance, given that he spoke the poem Mariko said to him and he wept in his own silent way. Yabu's poem was also simple, short and to the point. He wants to be useful even in death in so far as he can try to fight but if he loses (relevant to John's first words to Toranaga) then he is simply meat for hungry dogs. In John's seppuku he speaks the words Mariko said in her last breath, showing that he not only learns language fast but also that he has taken her lesson to heart - Life and Death are the same and both can be used as weapons and not useless at all. John can make Toranaga do what he wants but either way, he gets to die and join Mariko in death. He contemplated that future - dying old and alone clutching unto the memories but decided 'fuck it' In that whole scene, we know later that it was Toranaga who burnt his ship understanding that Mariko bargained for his life. And yet Toranga insisted on punishing the village to test John and his resolve. He claimed he had given up his war when the very reason he is alive is cos his witty response to Toranaga amused him so much he kept him around. And yet he is willing to give up his life for this small petty reason as the village same to how Toranaga found his depression around the gardeners death petty and small - John calls the whole religious war with the Portugeuse 'small' contrasting ep 2 where Toranaga's conflict with the regents seemed small in comparison to this new larger global threat John revealed to them about the Spanish-Portuguese treaty. In the scene where John and Fuji sat together, you can see the lessons that Kuki the courtesan taught in the WIllow World - the empty space beside John framing him and Fuji as they sit is highlighting that the empty space is an absence that can be seen and felt, t he absence of Mariko in their lives. I love the scene Omi takes his gun and sword - mirroring the conflict in early episode down to Fuji behind him but this time they're both so broken by their losses and trials there's no other for fighting anymore - which is a mirror to the entire conflict as a whole: to fight without fighting, to win before the war even starts. Toranaga won before they fought at Sekigahara. Also the poetry of just Yabu almost dying on a cliff to being executed on a cliff. Mariko's words that Fuji used to say 'let your hands be the last to hold her'

I believe the episode title "A Dream Of A Dream" has the meaning of the ideal dream of Tokugawa Ieyasu unifying Japan with the minimal number of casualties and avoiding the Battle of Sekigahara (and its consequent horrific loss of Japanese lives) if he could have helped it. In this series, Toranaga succeeded in the same dream with the fewest deaths possible. There is no need to show any carnage of a showdown battle between the five armies because Toranaga has already won. Mariko has succeeded in moving Ochiba and any highborn samurai family to distance themselves from Ishido, let alone support him on the field of battle. And Toranaga did not reveal the true intentions of keeping Blackthorne to Yabushige either. Blackthorne is more than just a distraction. He is the best naval captain he knows, which he still needs to secure against the colonial dominion from distant empires. Blackthorne also (finally) understood Toranaga's leadership style but the real test is Blackthorne being willing to sacrifice himself for the villagers, making him an ideal candidate for a true vassal. After the sacrifices of so many vassals, Toranaga needs Blackthorne (and Omi) to fill his ranks again.

You guys should react to the 1980 mini series and compare/contrast. Keep the goodness that is Shogun going! I love how Anjin's fate was changed. In the flash forward he left Japan and returned "home". You see he is holding Mariko's cross. But when Anji took Fuji out to help her let go of her past, he dropped Mariko's cross... accepting his fate. Like Toranaga said.. he wasn't controlling the winds, he was reading them. Anjin, based on William Adams, stayed in Japan, had a family and owned land.

Also I'd like to add: One of the reasons cinepals is my favourite react channel is that you guys really consider the best moments to highlight, it seems like a no-brainer but aside from a small handful of others like The Reel-Rejects or Blind wave, most channels I've seen haven't even thought to include those small little profound moments in the show that, to me, really make it what it is. That simple camera pan across the woods when Blackthorne points out the absurd nature of all the religions. Including those scenes and even discussing them. Reading between the lines. That's what really separates a reaction channel worth watching from a redundant piece of content. You guys get the point haha, great job J&A!

The best compliment I can give for this show in a world of on demand, streaming and DVR, I still was counting down to when the show was going to be available. In the reality that this book was based on, Osaka did get attacked, some 16 years later. With use of Portuguese cannon and mostly home forged cannon, although the native cannon were not as good. Willaim Adams (blackthorn) never left Japan. He did send money back to care for his family. But did marry and have two children.

Thomas Blake Glover(Scottish arms dealer) has written down“Bribery didn't work for Tokugawa(Toranaga's)samurai“ As I Japanese “Seppuku“was sad and scared traditional but it wasn't nonsense.And I believe you guys know why …after this show😊

Overall, i was satisfied with the ending. Although, i think itll be badass if they decided to do a full length movie showing the big battle and open it in theaters haha. They would make alot more money too.

That's also what people don't get. They have a budget and make choices where they are going to put the money. I huge realistic looking battle is extremely expensive to create.

​@@Rabbithole8yeah, there's no way they'll have a budget to put together the full battle and in detail. But maybe with the success to this series. They could put a movie of yhe battle on the big scene. I would watch it for sure haha.

The book ends at the exact same point in a slightly different way. I mean, same style? The adaptation used a different path to get there, but everything dovetails perfectly at the end in terms of feeling. The show was very true to the spirit and major beats of the book for the most part. First time with any adaptation I have no complaints knowing the source materials. The show presented the spirit of Clavell's work.

This was art this was poetry this was beautifully done you don’t always need action and violence all the time because that’s what we always expect but bravo to shogun I really enjoyed this I watched the 80s version a hundred times 1 of my favorite shows ever and this version was well done also 👏🏼

"Why tell a dead man the future?" is exactly what Yabushige said about Toranaga in the first episode regarding the anjin.

That he has the cross in the forward flash, makes it a flash and not the future, the real William Adams never left Japan

it's unfortunate not to see a battle, but then again the book was never about battles. blackthorne adapts to japanese society, mariko sacrifices herself , and toranaga's machinations win him the war before the battle even begins . the actual battle was a forgone conclusion. i think it ended pretty well.

The flash forward of an old blackthorn was a fantasy, not real. It was him reflecting on his future-dying in England, and eventually letting go of it by letting go of the cross
