- เผยแพร่เมื่อ 28 มิ.ย. 2024
- I review, breakdown and explain Shogun episode 4 on FX. I discuss the story which is set in 1600 in Japan as John Blackthorne arrived there. I react to Yabushige betraying Toranaga and Ishido, Nagakado launching an attack on Jozen, and John and Mariko’s romance. I compare the story to the real events with Ieyasu Tokugawa and William Adams. I also give my theories and predictions on episode 5.

This was definitely the best episode of the season so far! It very much felt like the end of the beginning and I can't wait to see that chaos that's about to unfold! Let me know what you thought of the episode below!
I haven't read the novel, but I'm totally getting the vibe that Yabushige, the semi-comic relief Uncle, was written to become one of the fan favorites and a potential dark horse, who unfortunately, may become the unlikely turncoat hero... giving his life to protect our main protagonists. Yabushige's probable sacrifice as a dispensable character, though much more significant than plot cannon fodders, to provide that emotional gut punch for audience when called upon. He is a man who'd choose his death. The uncle's current situation is similar to being caught between the proverbial waves and rock.
Lol .. My man did you miss the part where the son of the "shocked" jabushiki (i think his name was) told him that he has a plan? The dude is in on it and is an ambitious snake. I love the character, but he is not shocked in the end. He too wanted that war, because it is in his interest to be valuable to someone, because it will keep him from insta death. Lord Toranaga is absolutely aware I think of the inner nature of his "ally", that by the way has done nothing that is not in Lord Toranaga's interest. (sorry for my shit English, it's my 3-rd language)
The story is written as it is, but cannon? Toranage needs infantry, and those cannon (not that they had the range) wouldn't scratch Osaka.
I am Japanese. It seems that some people are making a fuss about the lack of black people in SHOGUN. Several years before this era, there was a black samurai named Yasuke who served under Nobunaga. However, he was released from his samurai status at the same time as Nobunaga's assassination. Before him, there was no other black person in Japan. Also, in the era of this drama, only Europeans, let alone Americans, came to Japan. Also,There were no black aristocrats in Europe at that time.
@@takuh6830 My Japanese friend .. people are just stupid and don't care about reality if it goes against their own personal beliefs .. So don't waste your time to explain nothing to them. To me Japan has been and always will be the ICHIBAN !!!
Early in the story, you think it is the John Blackthorne story. As it progresses, you begin to feel like John is more of an observer of other people's stories.
He's the audience surrogate. We as the audience are supposed to be looking and asking questions about the world from his POV because everyone else already has a history separate from his character urgency at least at the beginning.
Welcome to basic writing
@@solarmaru49that is nit basic…
@@solarmaru49 might be basic but its not easy to do right
Very well said
The wife pointing the gun at the dude’s head was a serious, “Oh fuck yeah!” moment!
I was like oh shit I didnt know she was like that 😂😂
She was gonna bust a cap... Before busting caps were even a thing!
she early my resect after that shit she like he my lord now and I died protect him
Onna Bugeisha, Women Samurai were trained from a young age just as the men were. Women die on the sword just like the men, whether they are on the battlefield or not. So, they train in halberd, archery, and blade work. They were fiercer than the men in many cases. Case in pointe.
she's smart. no men ego involved so things got settled down
You got the dynamics wrong with Toranaga on the beach making a speech.
Toranaga was actually afraid that Yabushige could take him prisoner in Ajiro, and deliver him to Ishido.
That he was surrounded by a massive Yabushige army chanting "Yabushige!" made him more worried.
However, Toranaga being smart and manipulative, gave such a martial speech that the troops changed their chants to "Toranaga!"
He also took the occasion to suddenly leave by boat back to Edo, escaping to somewhere where he is safer and nor surrounded by potentially unreliable troops.
Very crafty this Toranaga!
There is where you are wrong. He went back to edo to Raise his Army for the upcoming war. You'll see in the upcoming episodes what in talking a about
@@Slycarlothat doesn't change the fact that he was safer in Edo rather than with Yabushige.
in my opinion i think he also predicted that ishido will want to sway yabushige so toranaga let his son to stay.. toranagas son would not permit them to see their tactics so he finished ishido messenge... son know no matter what war is here.. why give the enemy an edge..
@@donrog5035 safer yes but thats not the reason he left.
@@skooskipotato3750 it's one of the reason but not the main reason.
Episode 1 :10/10
Episode 2 :10/10
Episode 3 :10/10
Episode 4 :10/10 OH my God can't wait for next episode !!! 😃😲😎
Genuinely this!
Ep 3 was a loser
All opinions respected 😉☦️💪
Top it off with massive bukake session. 😂
Episode 4... 20/10
This is perhaps one of rare instants of seeing how terrifiying how cannons are depicted. Usualy in oldder films a cannon blast as a simple explosion on the ground and people fell down. But here you see several people ripped apart due to chain shot and so accrately. So seeing those men get ripped in half must been a horror to witniss.
Yeah it was horrific to see!
Wasn’t expecting to see in live action what chainshot and grapeshot does to horses and people xd
@@TH_Sofayea that was... gruesome...
This is crap. Where did the canons that did all the damage come from ? The smoke from their firing is seen in the far distance. Chain and grape are used in decreasing ranges of approaching targets. The idea that firing them from such a great distance at targets removed from the friendly party by only a few yards with such great accuracy is truly laughable. Also, who sighted and placed those cannons without
Blacthorn’s knowledge or guidance.
@@tomswift9542 You are absolutly right. Stupidity. Especcialy if we read a book... Enemies were killed brutaly but from a close distance...
The beheading was savage as f.. 10/10 best episode for the season
How is it the best episode of the season if the season isn’t even over yet
@@bigpops4279 Insolence! I demand compensation from your reply.
Proceeds to behead 😂
@andrewquejano746 Hahahahaha spot on 😂
The line from book regarding Mariko's family name is "as long as men live in these islands the name Akechi will be foul"
They didnt change Mitsuhide name in the book?
@@bercerus They have changed almost everybody's name from the book in this miniseries. They mostly lengthened the names in an attempt to make them more authentic for the time period.
In the book he is Akechi Jinsai@@bercerus
I like Yabushige. Guy’s stuck between a rock and a very very hard place. Can’t wait to see how he wades through this mess he never asked for..
The thing is, he's causing all of his own problems by not being loyal to one. He's playing the game and if he actually picked a side he would genuinely lose half of his worries
I like him too😂
Im ashamed to admit that in a time of war, i might be yabushige. Like… im
Not sure which side i need to choose, i just wanna live and own my towns 😂😂😂
Exactly what I said to my wife. It is a lose lose situation.
i think the main thing toranaga’s son did was make most of japan side with ishido.
using a cannon to kill a messenger samurai is the most dishonorable thing to do
Shamefur dispray even.
Depend on how you present the fact to the public. He can still use the excuse that the messenger insulted him and his father honor and deem them hostile enough to allow retaliation.
Oh god she was wrong. Its not just war. Its Total War!!!@@PROVOCATEURSK
@@Patrick-cc7qm Then you clearly don't know what honor mean for Japanese.
Or he showed his troops how powerfull they are, meaning they will side with him.
Ramsay Nagakado: “If you think this is a happy ending, you have never been paying attention.”
damn
Well obviously. We are going to die and cease to exist and 100 years after our deaths no one will remember us ever again. You just stating the obvious my guy
100 years? We have thousands of years of recorded history, and that's before digital technology. @@cjc4426
@@cjc4426shawty he’s talking abt how war has no winners in the context of the show. Ur nihilistic diatribe is also telling the obvious
I like how Johns palate is used to fermented food my guess always being on ship you need food with shelf life and wont go bad fast and how the consort and translator both thought he would not like natto due to smell and taste he loved it instead. Consort proving her loyalty when pointing pistol was cool to see. She has purpose being with John we see loyalty for first time John has allies he can trust
Yeah, I was like "the guy's accustomed to 17th century naval cuisine, a bit of fermented beans really isn't going to faze him!".
He didn’t love it. His face said all! But he was coming to understand that he must embrace everything.
I like the weekly release...but god I wish I could binge it in one go! So GOOD!
I know what you mean!
Me too hell even if they release all of it id binge it over and over again and every time i get bored id watch it all over again
I wish that to. That is why i probally gonna watch this show again and again after its done airing because man this kind of a show is rare these days
It's so difficult not to watch it at home while waiting for my wife to get home to watch it together.
ITS SO GOOD
But I think of this like watching weekly anime
How many times will you watch first 4 episodes before next tuesday? Yes.
Man... Can we all agree whenever any japanese series Sanada-san works with, it's 💯 banger series 😂
Ngl the cannons brutal af wasnt expecting to see dudes explode so soon
yeaa for real😂 i only see people get thrown in movies by cannons but this time different 👀💥 everything cut off
The writing blew my mind some scenes are epicly poetic
Toranaga's model, Tokugawa Ieyasu, is actually like Toranaga in the drama. He was very patient and clever, yet charismatic at the same time. Since I'm a fan of Tokugawa, I'm rediscovering his charm through this drama. I cannot wait for the next show!
Show of the decade.
Bold statement, but seeing as though it's probably going to be a one season wonder, it will have the effect of making everybody want more!
@@BrainPilot Japan is one of the oldest and longest running culture in the world the 1600s- 1800s were straight samurai war periods , I’ll really doubt one season is all they do especially how good it’s been rated
@@stivenfern8198 It´s based on an old novel, which has a satisfying ending, so it´s impossible (said by the creators of the TV show) to have a second season
The version with Chamberlain from the 70’s is better than this.
@@KingRat71Yeah, I doubt it as shows back then had little historical accuracy.
It was Mariko who visited John at night, since even though her face was covered the hair was still the same as Mariko's and I think she just omitted that detail because she is not his consort.
Was it her or not?
@@user-vi9tk9ix4v it was
@@stevebubbie1126 interesting, I thought the silhouette looked like her along with the hair style matching. Could they possibly have diverged from the original source material? As the earlier scene has her falling for him after his comparison.
@@partyahmed5966 It is Mariko she just did not fully disclose that the next morning in public its already been confirmed its Mariko.
@@FireElFreak As I thought, although “she did not fully disclose it” is a bit of an understatement since she tried to hide that it was her by saying it was a courtesan her and Fuji hired, banking on the fact that John can’t speak Japanese to confirm with Fuji.
I absolutely love this show but won't be able to watch it until tonight. So i will tell you in advance great review and insights because they always are fantastic. Well done BrainPilot!
Thanks a lot! Enjoy the episode, it's a good one!
Havent been this excited for a show each week in years this episode specifically the ending really set the tone for how the rest of the season is going to go
This series is blowing me away ( pun intended ).
FX seems to have this ability to pump out surprising, insanely good series out of nowhere. The dude playing Blackthorn especially, I can't believe I've never heard of him before. He has so much presence I don't understand how anyone could stand on-scene with him.
Yeah FX are the dark horses when it comes to TV. They do produce some real gems. Gems that do just come out of the blue
With the success of Game of Thrones, Shogun was asking to be remade for the modern audience as it has many of the same ingredients but with a real world historical background. Even better that the series hasn't butchered novel but I suspect that's because James Clavell's daughter is one of the executive producers and she's known to be protective of her father's work.
@@stevebubbie1126 the whole fidgety thing makes sense though. He's a man in a foreign land, doesn't know customs, and is meant to stick out like a sore thumb. I don't know much about the book(s), but it all works for a series
I'm always grateful, though words seem inadequate to express it, for how you make your reviews so captivating. I'm particularly enchanted by episode 3, which remains my favorite. As for episode 4, I feel compelled to give it another watch, especially because of I got fixated with Kiku LOL. But seriously...
To support your theory, Yes, Its John Blackthorne moment well probably all his scene. And the the character of Omi is beginning to be interesting. Indeed, for the grand master Toranaga himself, he mirrors the brilliance of the great tactician Tokugawa Ieyasu.
That is a masterpiece... what a good show!! Tadanobu Asano is killing in this show... His expressions by the end of this episode are priceless!
It truly is! Smashing it every week
Mariko was already married to Buntaro when the whole betrayal thing happened. They were married for about 2 months, he could divorce her after that but instead he sent her away for 8 years
Yes he did her that courtesy
@@kansairobot2015 If he'd divorce her at that time she would be killed
The problem was she wanted to die. @@skittlesrequiem4362
This is the best television show on the air since Game of Thrones. The production quality, the story, ohhhhh, this series is soooo damn good. I dont know why, but I was in tears during most of the episode, not bawling, but there were tears running down my face.
It was an amazing one for sure!
The intricate writing and complexity in story is def up there with Breaking bad imo
Keep a box of tissues at hand for the final episode if this series follows the novel.
Same. the scene with Mariko and John chatting back to back was so touching that I was getting emotional and teary-eyed
Let’s hope when the series end, they make sure to end it right. Unlike GOT with that god awful ending. Such a shame because GOT could have went down as the GOAT TV show. Until this day I cannot or even think about rewatching GOT just because how bad the ending was.
I was so proud of his son I rewatched it so many times 😂 he had that demon look in his eyes great acting from him in that scene
lol but this going backfire on him for sure
@@SoldierSpiderx definitely, he didn't listen to his father damn fool
@@raizen5389agreed he going get himself killed for sure
@@raizen5389he's a dumb brat indeed
Young and inexperienced
The best episode out right now you dam right thanks for the video great explanation I’m hooked 🎣
Glad you enjoyed the video! It was a great episode for sure
This looks good! :)
This build up is great, Love it.
Every episode gets better and better!
It really does!
I think Toranaga's son decision to kill the messenger was pretty brutal but it had to be done. Wasn't the smartest thing to do but it definitely sealed Yabushige's fate in which I believe Toranaga's son knows that he was going to potentially betray his father, in a way, he's cutting the burning fuse of a bomb before it explodes. With Toranaga being away, I think Ishido will send their men to capture the port. Holding Toranaga's son hostage, putting Toranaga in a tough situation potentially making him trade for John Blackthorne? This is just my opinion and a little bit of prediction. Can't wait to see what Toranaga has planned!
agree he did something he shouldn't but he had no choice this going backfire on him hard and he got nobody to blame but himself
@@SoldierSpiderx if you don't know that by killing ishidos men and that messenger is going to work for toronaga in the long run because ishido don't know how deadly those cannon are when time for war to break out toronaga is gonna steam roll everybody with them
@@SuperChuckkie that it true those but it Toronaga it ready those that the good question cause he went away to train their man and he had other plan so now he got come up with new plan and for sure the canon going work in his favor and I have no doubt his son going get kill for sure
If memory serves, in the book the messenger is shown the slain homing pigeons he'd sent out to warn Ishido before he dies.
Yabushige's fate isn't sealed. The envoy was taking him back to the Regents to be executed and no artillery demonstration was going to change that fact. Now that the envoy is murdered and the war is on, all eyes will be on Toranaga which leaves Yabushige off the hook... for now, so he has time to train his forces then throw his support behind the winning side. It's very clever and all part of the plan cooked up with his nephew.
Omi's smirk made me audibly yelp in glee in an already epic scene. hay!
Haha, he got exactly what he wanted!
That ending was crazy , seeing Toranagas son just step up and put an end to the "Meddling Brat" image he was tired of . Theres no going back now , the war has started ! Best show ive seen in awhile
It was the worse thing he could of done because the killing of messengers is taboo. It will make it much more difficult for his father to bring the Christian lords into his camp.
Nice episode review
Thanks!
That was a very thoughtful gift...
Giving Fuji the gun was a great move to show that Blackthorn was not her owner. She has agency if she really wants to end him in his sleep.
I actually liked this deviation from the book, fleshes out the Fujiko character much better than in the book or mini series. Besides she was absolutely Bad Ass
Fujiko is samurai class so she knows how to use weapons and would just kill him with a tanto if she wanted. She doesnt need a gun.
bro just watched it and damn what a masterpiece(s) 😂
Another great breakdown
Glad you enjoyed it
That ending man... My job in the U.S. Navy was to track targets on a radar and fire our 5" cannons onboard cruiser warships. 2 per ship, fore and aft. Sea, land, and air capabilities. So cool to see the O.G.'s at work here, haha. I was topside for a shoot and let me tell you, the cavity in your chest, any open space (i.e. lungs), will reverberate during a shot. Never felt anything like it. Some fun facts... before a shoot there is a thorough briefing. Things such as sea life are taken into account, even. A round and powder charge is manually loaded below deck by some mean gritty old bastards called Gunner's Mates. Shooters are called a Fire Controlman. These rounds are high-explosive and weigh about 60-80lbs a piece. Target practice is a workout, for sure. Another cool thing is that an entire warship will rock in the sea, as each round is discharged. The gun will shoot, you wait, then about 30 seconds later you see a large explosion on the horizon. Wild shit. When asked what you did for work, we used to say land scaping or population control. HOOYAH! ⚓
I am probably going to watch this series one day, but the fact that it wasn't filmed in Japan makes a difference to me. The 'Land of the Rising Sun' has a spirit all its own. After at least 2,000 years of living on the archipelago, the people and the land are one. Filming in Toronto, or some other Canadian province, isn't the same.
This serie will end with the samurai ragnarok; sekigahara.
Damn. If a cannonball just looked like this can't wait to see that battle
Skigahara 1600, kino af
I agree this is the best one yet.
It really is!
Thank you for explaining some of the background of the characters.
Glad you enjoyed the video!
Great show on many levels, cant wait 😊
Me neither
You’ve got a great channel dude. Found it through the Gentleman, staying for Shōgun lol
Cheers! Thanks a lot!
Very much agreed👏🏽 Blackthorns acting and delivery was much more natural in this episode. This is definitely a show I look forward to watching wednesday nights.
Yeah it stepped up for sure!
The acting of toranaga. Is solid. The deminic eyes that started when he commands his troops. Damm
great video mate, beautifuly explained.
Thanks, glad you enjoyed!
I remember the first series in 1979. It cemented a curiosity, fascination and love of Japanese culture. Now 45 years later, I’m obsessed with Koi, have over 1,000 Kokeshi and love sushi and ramen. Have 3 grown half Japanese children, 5 3/4 Japanese grandchildren and another on the way in June. I’ve lived in Japan for 34 of the past 42 years. I still love this show, this is better than the original! And Mariko-San is absolutely amazing, the character development and her sheer beauty!
You may have been Japanese in a past life!
Hai Sou desu@@queennubianuniverse
Like you said I think he left Edo initially because he knew true colors wouldn’t show in his presence. While he’ll be disappointed in his son I’m sure he’d be kinda proud with him exposing a snake
I wish they would not kill off Fuji-Sama. I'm totally adoring her.
After the full season is out i probally will watch it again because holy shit this is so fucking good of a show
Fujisan has ball of steel for pointing the gun at them🙌🏻🙌🏻✨️✨️, i respect her so much at that moment
Shessssh IT IS WAR!
The ending was insane a sign for war !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Such a good ending!
I saw it this night...The last few minutes...WWOOOWWW ...never saw that coming! That, as you say, utterly brutal moment was that! BRUTAL!!
Such a good ending!
Amazing storyline. Seems like first 4 episodes are the real built up for what is coming next.😊
Little finger good reference. That’s exactly what I was thinking.
I agree this has been the best episode so far. It showed that Mariko came out from behind her fence and shared an intimate moment with Anjin, but not as Mariko it seems. She was a courtesan that nite. Then, we see Toranaga's son ignore his father's advice, made the first move, and the first mistake as now, this was an undeniable provocation for war. Toranaga himself will be pissed and I'm sure he will feel that it was not an honorable way to fight for samurai.
Really dynamic storyline with so many characters developing around the flirtations of war on the horizon.
This show is amazing.
great show
Hadn't even heard of this series until a few days ago, but wow, I'm gripped. It's like Game of Thrones, but set in feudal Japan.
Yupp the vibe is very similar to GoT early season
me and my parents have been watching every episode together and the final cannon scene shocked us all so much lmao
Mariko is played to the tee.. but I also was awesome struck by the action and scenes with John and fujisan.. she is fantastic. Every episode feels like 5 minutes and thus and our short.. finally something worth watching and getting excited about.
bruh have u even read the book or watched the old show? mariko is not even portrayed right. fuji has more romantic chemistry with blackthorn then the person that is supposed to be his love interest lol.
I haven't read the book, but I just correctly guess (and verified it) who her family is, and why she is thus with Toranaga. I won't give that bit away, but the second she said "it (her family name) is well-known in Japan", but it is one she absolutely has to hide, I knew who she was. And the fact that an Englishman is now entangled with basically Tokugawa, gives her away if you know Japanese history of the period. Which is why, the last scene, is her absolute horror at war coming again.
Her clan lost everything, literally everything but her (and historically the character she is based on became essentially a political prisoner) the last time two great armies fought to unify Japan and be Shogun.
It also makes sense why she was married to Toda, who is loosely based on the Honda clan.
I think John liking Natto was what made Mariko fall in love with him 🤣🤣🤣
im confused who having sx with John is it Mariko or random girl ? but i see a glimpse of Mariko hairstyle😂
@@ramasyaks6077come on now… context clues. Of course it was Mariko.
@@ramasyaks6077yeah the jawline looks like her but that convo after was like wtf just happened who did he pipe?
Nah I don’t think it was mariko the lips didn’t match
@@gregordrizzlewing7339 I think Mariko was just fucking around with him
Two words ."Pure perfection"👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏
Yabushige: "I'm playing both sides so I always come out on top"
Lol, he definitely doesn't feel like he will!
Looooove this show. I rarely think shows are better than movies but I am hooked on this show
Yeah this is great!
This show has been amazing! It has all the hallmarks of an Epic like GOT, sans the dragons. Thx for covering it!
I totally agree! Glad you're enjoying the videos
Lord Toranegas Son made the right decision. He was left alone in a snake pit with no street cred yet. The war was going to happen anyway, it denied his enemy the knowledge of his technical advantage and he certainty got everyones attention. Well done Lad.
and given it was dishonorable could easily have made lords who would have sided with toranga side with his enemies
i am really enjoying this series
Same!
I feel Nagakado just trying to look out for his dad the best way he knows how. Foolish? A bit. But pretty ballsy. He was right in a sense that any ‘information’ taken by the enemy would deem detrimental to his father’s chances of success. He just wants to make Father proud and to be dependable as the next heir. But in the eyes of Samurai… it is deemed savage and cowardly. But war is War.. us in the present wouldn’t see that. But back then it was dishonorable. I‘m curious to find out what his father’s response would be…
Can we make a petition to get it all released in one go?!
Blackthorne's elevation to the status of Hatamoto is not just a reflection of his personal growth and adaptation but also a strategic move by Toranaga to utilize Blackthorne's foreignness as an advantage in his campaigns. As a Hatamoto, Blackthorne is granted a fief, becomes a key figure in Toranaga's court, and plays a crucial role in the daimyo's ambitious plans.
I more than agree, best show out there right now. I just hope they don't do like so many other wonderful shows have done in the past, and mess it up somehow somewhere down the line.
I heard the phrase "Kill the messenger" but damn!
I loved this episode!
Same here!
Episode 4 yet another banger 🔥🔥🔥
Are you referring to pillowing?
@@ssotkow hmm hearing for the first time 😅
Looool
So now Toranaga has to fight all 4 regent armies? Does he get any allies or aid to help him, yabu army alone or his ppl from edo aint enough?
Howd yall already watch the episode? It was only released 2 hrs ago for me in the US
MY fav scene when he say i will let your father know about this... i dont care... in fact i want him to know.... i am son of Yoshii toranaga... Yoshii Nakagado!!!!
The 8 fold fence thing gotta be related to the 8 gates in Naruto. I wonder if they both are drawn from the same thing
"It's war." So fucking epic.
Such a powerful final line!
Finally, we have a worthy successor to Succession! This is THE new great show!
Shogun is fantastic. I am loving it.
Same here!
This is an excellent breakdown, but i think you left out something major that came forth in this episode....FUMI!!! WHAT A BADDASS?!?!!? This war is gonna be nasty... im ready!
Glad you enjoyed the video! It's gonna be an epic next few episodes for sure!
How do I get my subtitles like that on Disney plus?
I believe that was Kiku that showed up in John’s room.
That kid tore em up😲
Their innards became their outards
I'm happy Yabu Kashigi is still alive. He's a great character.
Pretty thin. I noticed you did not address the idea that these newly trained artillerymen could fire shotgun like ordinance with such precision to within yards of friendlies without hitting them . See what happens to the Virginians in Armistead’s brigade when they approach the Union held wall at Gettysburg to get an idea of the effect of the type of rounds supposedly fired by the Japanese .
There are a lot of great historic Asia dramas just getting more acknowledgement now. Been watching them for say 15 years. Game of thrones (comparison) ain't got nowt compared to quite a few a dozen at least.
GoT was too big and after the directors/writers idk ran out of book material it went completely to shit after S4/S5
I'm guessing that misstep of Toranaga's son at the end of the episode means that they lost the opportunity to send Yabushige back to Osaka with the messengers, where he would be forced to commit seppuku. They're kind of stuck with him now.
Yeah that is true!
John should be proud that his soldiers are very receptive to his training. 4 shots in rapid succession, 4 hits without collateral, all without his supervision.
Also, great foreshadowing!
"May the gods blast you without pity."
"You will see the cannons fire across the plains and blast their targets with perfect accuracy."
As joke good...
Yabushige Sama Hoooooo!
Toranaga Sama Hooooooo!
On a loop 100x 😂
Goroda is Oda Nobunaga, the first of the 3 Unifiers. Ishida/Hideyoshi was Oda/Gorodas right hand man.
Make sense
