The title of each episode is always 100% what the episode is about. Since the show named this Crimson Sky, then you can bet dollars to donuts that what the episode showed you WAS Crimson Sky. Remember Mariko's own words in Episode 3: "My Lord is well known for his trickery." Crimson Sky was never about an invasion, loudly announced to all his men (and any spies that might have been listening). Crimson Sky was always about destroying Ishido's hold on the other noble houses. Mariko forcing the Catch-22 and then her subsequent seppuku * was * Crimson Sky. In the great game of Chess, Toranaga sacrificed his Queen. Next episode we'll see whether or not this sacrifice was worth it. And also end the show.
We are blown away by this episode, the final episode didn't quite match the emotions of this one for us but still answered a lot of questions for us! The shocking reveal at the end of this episode hit us hard, we didn't expect it at all!
Really appreciate that mate! We have reacted to a few movies an have them scheduled next after Shogun before we jump into another series, we’ve watched Crank, Arachnophobia, Grave of the Fireflies, Cocaine Bear and Tusk…. So keep a look out for them!
Mariko was Crimson Sky
