Lord Yabushige is my favorite character in this entire series. He's clearly intelligent enough to be a threat and/or valuable ally in his own right, but always much more expressive than the other characters. He's a walking comedic relief that always somehow manages to be a critical character when it matters most, and he always seems so damn tired of it.

[@dunjica77]

he's so over it:)))))

[@Levon_RnD]

We must have watched two different series😂 Intelligent enough to be a threat, oh my😂

[@Tiku-]

“Ehh?” “Uuggghhhh” 😂😂😂

[@Hossak]

Ishido is being outmaneuvered and he is angry. Angry for not seeing the trap, angry for his massive loss of face, angry because he is being made to look weak and stupid in front of everyone. Brilliant series and Mariko is just perfect.

[@brianpeck4035]

I think Ishido is more worried about any delay in closing with his enemy on his ground of choice. I think he's worried about losing his grip on Toranaga and on losing his own head.

[@Kncperseus]

Not to mention, mad because Mariko reminded everyone of his peasant roots.

[@thespiritphoenix3798]

"You would walk into a sword just to prove the blade is sharp" That delivery by Blackthorn is so restrained and pensive. It shows how much he and Mariko care for one another.

[@kevinbirmingham8629]

@@grandmufftwerkin9037 I'm not a woman but I think it might be because he never tries to control her. He asks her to do something, or to not do something, he actually listens to her, values her opinion. She seems to be completely controlled by men and her sense of duty. John never does that to her.

[@DrCruel]

In chess, Mariko is what we call a "poisoned pawn." Lord Toranaga disposed of her masterfully.

[@CrniWuk]

I don't think it's that simple.

[@Snipsey01]

I've played chess for so long, never heard that term before

[@CrniWuk]

@@Snipsey01 It's because it's a deadly manouver because the moment the pawn is touched, the player dies.

[@DrCruel]

@@Snipsey01 *Why Are Poisoned Pawns Important?* _Being aware of the concept of a poisoned pawn can protect you from a lot of trouble. If you spot a pawn hanging, it is always a good idea to double-check to see if it is poisoned. Not only that, but you can also use a poisoned pawn to set a trap for your opponents._ _Additionally, there are quite a few openings with a poisoned pawn variation, like the London System, the Trompowsky Attack, and the Sicilian Najdorf. Some of these variations have a lot of theory related to them, and that is why it is easy to find yourself in an unfortunate position if you play them without knowing the opening theory or book moves._ You're probably a fish. Maybe you want to read some chess books or join a club. Never too late to learn. In any case, it was my pleasure to school you. Good luck.

[@CrniWuk]

"What are Toanaga's plans? I can help him, we can do this together." Oh Yabu San, but you are. You are helping Toronaga. Very much.

Highborn ladies walk in a gliding motion to convey beauty and elegance. It’s why you see those Geisha depictions in every horror games and what not to be flying and stuff, to them that is the peak of beauty and femininity.

[@kevinbirmingham8629]

I just realized that Anjin stood there and let dude vent....but only up to a certain point. When Yabu got too in Mariko's face that's when John stepped in (like any man who's protecting his woman would) and was like "Dude! Chill". Yabu's response was hilarious

[@lukefury8162]

I noticed that, too, but I wasn't sure the reason now it makes sense

[@saiaini2439]

Toranaga plan to destroy Ishido politically by sending Mariko to her death in Ishido Castle. From Mariko words we know that her Akechi klan is honoured by others samurai clan in japan.

[@earthling123]

I am not japanese so I dont understand. Arent clan hate each other? Always vying to outbest everyone and becoming number one? Why would her death trigger any kind of rage at all? They dont care when her family got hunted down and forced to kill themself

[@svyatoslavrurikovich8831]

Osaka Castle, not Ishido Castle.

[@Vonhoz]

@@earthling123 They do care. But they are playing the great game and if the rules permit it, its fair game. But if you break the rules. Not only does the one you cheated recieve sympathy. Everyone also will try to ensure they dont get cheated on in the future. In the end everyone has to agree to a set of rules of conduct and if someone breaks those rules the system self-regulates the bad player away.

[@annstillwell730]

Mariko wanted to die her dilema like the real woman Gracia she is based on was that she was a christian and she also believed killing herself would consign her to hell. But the japanese part of herself felt burdened by the dishonor of her father and family. Having a crappy husband and unthankful son didn't help either. I think Toranga was killing 2 birds with one stone. Using her as trap and stalemate as well as giving her a chance for the honorable end she wanted.

[@scribe3]

Ishido's, way of thinking is...he has the Regents and other Allies on his side, so he has the advantage against Toranago, but as Madame Gin stated fate is like a sword only useful to those who know how to wield it... Sun Tzu, said if you know yourself and you know your ememies..in a thousand battles you will not be defeated....In my opinion, Ishido, didn't do his homework properly...

[@travelback5700]

He kept people who are supposed to be allies as hostages in his castle. That is why in the end, his own key allies abandoned him and sided with Toranaga.

[@ogion539]

I love this show, but it cracks me up how it seems like Yabushige is just this guy trying to get ahead only to have some oooooouuuuuutrageous stuff happen at every turn! What makes it funnier is that he's just intensely evil.

[@Ngamotu83]

This is the moment when it becomes obvious Yabushige is an audience surrogate. The character through whose perspective the audience is able to learn and understand the story.

"You'd walk into a sword just to prove the blade is sharp" What about everything you've seen in the Japans makes you surprised by this statement?

Even in our current modern society, most people won’t believe the blade is sharp until it cut somebody. In contrast to them, ours can be explained to sheltered life bubble and self fabricated delusion.

[@John-ru2gq]

The final act is amazing. But it would be boring for someone who just wants to see cool sword fighting and cheap dialog. Mariko just secured the winning position for her lord without having to use an army. That is the art of war. The show is about grand strategy and the courage it takes to see it through with all of the human elements/instincts. But to each their own.
