The most beautiful part of the finale for me was how many people were affected by Mariko’s death, either by regretting it (Ishido, the Regents, Yabusige), remembering her poetry (Lady Ochiba, Toranaga) remembering her words (Blackthorne, Fuji), or honoring her wishes (Toranaga, the Monk Alvito). Toranaga’s vision (and four-dimensional chess game) was finally realized, but the show never forgot that Mariko was the true heart of the story, transforming everyone by her life and by her death, and destroying Toranaga’s enemies in a way an army never could. She was such an unforgettable character in a such a wonderful show. Thank you, Mariko-dono. You are the beautiful flower that finally fell, but, thankfully, you have been carried by the wind for all of the world to see and cherish, and you will never be forgotten. 🌸🌺🌸

[@kevinking2380]

Never read the book but I think the ending was rushed and disappointing

[@reginaldcampos5762]

​@kevinking2380 i never read the book either, but i feel that thematically speaking, the war didn't need to be shown in its entirety. The entire theme of the story is fate, and Toranaga is always destined to win and become the shogun no matter what. Everything played out in Toranaga's favor, so the war became meaningless. Im actually a little glad that this story doesnt need a game of thrones or lord of the rings battle to get the point across. Although, there are a lot of plot holes like whatever happened to Toranaga's brother, why specifically does Lady Ochiba hate Toranaga, how did Blackthorne return home when his fate was against that. Perhaps just one more episode could have resolved this, but im fine.

[@GothPaoki]

Because it's not Hollywood and the war is not the object of the book.

[@Njbear7453]

The first like.... 7 episodes were amazing, the end / conclusion wasn’t ..... underwhelming, but the episodes “felt” different, They weren’t as deep as the others.

[@morganmariex]

After the final episode I can say that Shogun is a show that I personally consider a masterpiece. From the sets, cinematography, costumes, mannerisms, and the superb writing and acting. Every character had layers to them, and Yabushige is the perfect example of how fantastic the writing and acting was. You could go from hating him, to loving his character, to then hating him again, and then in the final episode you still somehow manage to feel a bit sorry for him after everything he did. ALL of the actors were phenomenal. Fuji's line to Blackthorne on the rowboat, "Let your hands be the last to hold her" was such an incredible call-back to episode 1 when Mariko said the same thing to Fuji in comfort as she was about to lose her child. That moment made me tear up.

The honorable traditions and the use of them for scheming is so fucking cool. Like everyone involved knew that a character would use the grieving period to bolster their forces but they couldn't outright do anything about it, and the person themselves was only moving pieces around in the background to keep up that appearance. I hope there's more to this story, it ended in a really great and conclusive way but I want more.

I've already seen a bunch of people complaining there was no big battle at the end and like, that was never 'really' the point. Toranaga was always playing to win, and the easiest way to win is to win so completely even having to risk fighting a battle would be a pointless waste of time. His plan came together so completely, outplaying his opponents, that the battle was won before it ever needed fighting.

[@SouthernSouthAsian]

@@Blisterdude123, I was first a bit annoyed by it but the more I dwelled on it I came to the same conclusion and now found the ending satisfying. He had won the war before it even started and there was no need to see it anymore. And also, as it is based on historical events, I did go watch a documentary on the Battle of Sekighara to "finish" the story.

[@Blisterdude123]

@@SouthernSouthAsian While yes, Toranaga's historical counterpart did engage in a more high-stakes military campaign, for dominion, Shogun's Toranaga was creative-licensed to be a 'touch' more of a schemer and thinker. The emphasis was always more on his mind, and plans, than his battlefield acumen. And honestly, yes, I don't believe it does diminish the narrative consequence. It was a marvelous adaptation.

The concept that, " how you die is just as important, if not moreso, as how you live." Is fascinating. One doesn't necessarily trump the other, but the finality of death elevates its importance. Thus, an otherwise unimpressive life lived can be redeemed if the circumstances of your death are of significance. And, in contrast, a dishonorable death can negate a lifetime of service, or leave a blemish on the memory. It's a fascinating culture with a LOT of nuance. The Catholic in the Osaka prison scene alluded to it, "their rules are too opaque." Rules on top of customs, on top of precedent, on top of tradition, on top of expectation. Love this show!

[@karite2]

Heard about it last night and then you drop this video. Gonna need to give this a watch.

[@Lebronscome]

SPOILERS (DO NOT READ IF YOU HAVEN'T FINISHED THE SHOW): I believe the death you are speaking about is Hiromatsu killing himself in front of everyone. The significance of that was to gain some time/doubt from the Christians who were there to witness it that would believe that Toranaga is genuinely surrendering. I wasn't sure at first if that actually bought them any time as the Christian leaders seemed to still believe that was a ruse but it definitely led to hesitation in the Japanese Christian leaders with their dealing with Mariko, while she was in Osaka castle. Furthermore, it may have led to the eventual deal with sparing the barbarians life, ultimately I believe it showed the Christian portugese that either Toranaga still had a plan and the Anjin would not be allowed to return to his home country or that if Toranaga was truly surrendering then they would have access to the Anjin after he was gone anyway. The main importance, arguably, also actually came in the form of quelling the other generals of Toranaga who believed that Toranaga was giving up as Hiromatsu kept claiming, "do not give up on our lord even when he seems to be giving up" which prevented the other generals from either acting on their own due to thinking toranaga didn't have a plan or killing themselves due to disobeying (or thinking they were disobeying) Toranaga. I hope that made sense, and I'm still confused about several parts of the show so I'm welcome to more discussion.

[@anonypersona3189]

Yeah, this was 100% it. They needed everyone (including all on their own side) to believe that the surrender was genuine. So many still had their doubts that Toranaga could just give up, but sacrificing his oldest friend convinced many that the act of surrender was indeed genuine and all hope was lost so the enemy would put their guard down.

[@brobocops]

You're spot on, it was a performance almost.

[@goat9295]

One thing people tend to get wrong about Hiromatsu is that they think that he was in on the plan. He wasn't. He just figured it out in the moment and kind of gave a look of recognition to Toranaga. He knew he'd have to give his life in order to make the plan succeed. That is true loyalty.

In recent memory, Shogun has to be among the top (if not already the top) shows I've had the absolute *honor* of watching. The set design, the acting, the cultural values of the past, collision between East and West, it's a marvelous journey all around. Highly recommend.

this has been one of my favorite shows to watch it is so good.

[@a-blade-named-Oil-Seller]

I finished watching the series last night, it's worthy of all the praise it gets. Like charlie said, the writing is incredible. I might only speak for myself, but as a huge fan of the book I found it incredible they could fit so much story in only 10 episodes. I definitely understand the whole plot hole thing, because there are many details that were changed or left out that would make much more sense to the viewer. (Warning: spoilers ahead) Without diving too deep into the lore, a few notable discrepancies that need some clarification is Ochiba's hatred for Toranaga. The series made a veiled allusion to it, telling Ishido what she had to go through to produce an heir. About as veiled of an illusion as being served a cherry flavored carbonated drink and spiting it out when you realize you were served La Croix when you asked for Fanta. Some notable major differences that set the series apart from the book would be some of the deaths seen on screen; the timing, reasoning, details, and consequences. It was quite a surprise and shock to see these differences play out on screen. It does seem odd and I totally understand Charile's stance about it being somewhat plothole-ish. While it might weaken the plot, the foundation the writers built upon stands very strong, and the end product is still very much a masterpiece. I disagree with everyone saying the ending was the same as the book. Both end epically. Both are equally captivating and like everyone who finished the series and read the book, we all want more. That being said, I am a bit biased and will give the book the edge. that extra 5% that would give charlie's score 100%. Which is perfect. But we're all gamers here and for some of you we all know the real complete save file is greater than 100%. James Clavell's Shogun, his magnum opus, is a timeless masterclass in storytelling. I've finished the book many times, purchased it many times, even had a pirated pdf at some point. To those who want more, I would very much recommend reading it. (Just an opinion as a fanboy, I firmly believe it is possible that some of the missed details and the book's epilogue, along with some action perhaps, could be realized as a major motion picture. It wont happen, but one could dream)

I said this before and I’ll say it again. This show was one of those shows that very few managed to do which was that for every Tuesday night, for two months, for 90 minutes, I felt like a fly on the wall. Every episode felt like I was there because the writing and performance was so well executed. I seriously don’t think I’ve seen a show of this quality before..maybe besides Better Call Saul. But still, this show impressed me in more ways than one and I couldn’t be happier with the ending as well as the show itself. 100% worth it. 💯

As an enthusiast of Japanese history, culture and traditions, I was absolutely stunned with the accuracy, the emotions portrayed and breathtaking sets. The writing and acting which is portrayed here by the likes of Anna Sawai and Cosmo Jarvis are truly award worthy. It really does feel like they took the novel and stuck all of its beauty to a show, hence making it truly immortal. The final episode where they were on the cliff took me to a whirl, like it was a sudden realisation of what Toranaga did and how everything folded. The ending is beautifully ambiguous and ended where the book did....I will remember this show for a long long time

[@rustknuckleirongut8107]

I love how much this version of Shogun is so different from the 80`s version, but still the same in a weird way. The perspectives are so different. Where the 80`s show is the perspective of Blackthorn and what he does not understand or know, you also do not understand or know and this modern version is the perspective of the people he met. You learn so much more about the personal situations of the people around him. And it is beautiful.

One thing this show does amazingly is build translation and interpretation as well as the subtitles themselves into a crucial aspect. Sometimes the translations are off or purposely interpreted differently from what is actually being said. Also I got some behind the scenes videos of the Shogun set on my channel

I noticed some people expecting grand battles like GoT, but Shogun did not have the budget for it. No one was expecting Shogun to be so good.

[@steezymiguel2393]

i don’t think they ever planned to have “battles” like that though? Toranaga knew he would lose if he went to war like that

[@Njbear7453]

That’s what good acting / writing/ and cinematography does ! Sucks you in.

[@Nate3million]

It wasn't necessary to show the battle. Toranaga won it before it even began. This is the genius of his character. It is a great example of the quote “Every battle is won before it's ever fought.” - Sun Tzu

[@Blisterdude123]

I don't think it was really a budgetary thing. Shogun was never about battles on the battlefield, but battles of words, and politics, and faith. Toranaga was always playing to win so completely, that any battle he fought was won before it began.

[@poggamus4330]

The characters and dialogue carried the show, and it ended with the characters and dialogue. No need for grandiose battle scenes to understand the outcome.

At my university we hosted a samurai expo, where two people that ran a NY samurai training program for Japanese/asian actors came down and demonstrated their abilities. The man in charge of that academy said that he was IN this show, as one of the bodyguards in an episode of Shogun, and he was so excited for it to come out.

Shogun is god tier but I want to warn everyone who's enjoying it that the show is 100% complete after season 1 based on the source material. Not a single fragment of the source material remains for additional content so if the show does continue for additional seasons we are completely dependent on writers inventing all the new details and dialogue from their own minds as there is nothing for them to transform from page to screen. For me the show is over and i'm happy with it as it exists but if you're expecting more than I just want to fans to know the situation. All the other novels that could be the basis for a potential season 2 in discussion take place hundreds of years after season 1.
