The wild robot trailer reaction plz Greg

[@tanvu2728]

Based on these hints and clues, and history..... you can tell that Toranaga is based on Ieyasu Tokugawa.... FAMOUSLY KNOWN, Ieyasu in his childhood belonged to the Mikawa people (Matsudaira clan, aka Tokugawa other clan name), and his clan lost a major battle and lost prestige. So their heir, aka Ieyasu, was sent to the ODA clan and became a hostage (Living along side the famous ODA NOBUNAGA).... When they grew up, oda helped Ieyasu get his clan back in order and Tokugawa clan basically became Oda clan main ally, guarding its rear against Japan's greatest warlord (Takeda Shingen). At this time, Toyotomi Hideyoshi (AKA the TAIKO), became Oda's shoebearer (literally carrying his shoes), and eventually vassal.... Oda eventually was betrayed by Akechi Mitsuhide (another vassal) and his clan basically got mostly wiped out. Hideyoshi (aka the TAIKO) eventually took over and became the person that united most of Japan. Tokugawa (Toranaga) basically now served under the Taiko (not hating him or anything cause he did what had to be done when Oda died).... so the Taiko basically trusted him the most as a result. P.S. EDO (aka land that Toranaga rule right now) is modern day TOKYO. Osaka is the other major city of Japan and is basically the capital city during the TAIKO reign. Kyoto on the other hand is the EMPEROR capital city. (Japan has 2 types of ruler.... Shogun and Emperor.... the Emperor is basically a figurehead at this time, and the military/politics is controlled by the Shogun. aka the TAIKO is the Shogun, but he is dead, so the reagent system is there to take care of the government until the Taiko's Son can succeed him as a Shogun.)

[@ALTAJR-07]

FYI....Samurai women were educated to read and write and trained To Fight if NEEDED TO, from childhood because the Clans were in constant wars against each other prior to the Tokugawa Shogunate and the Wives, Daughters, Senior Women were left to run their Estates, Fiefdoms known as Daimyos while the men were off slaughtering each other. And they were expected to Fight To The Death for the Honor of their Family and Clan. it is known as Bushido or Way Of The Warrior and its Code Of Conduct applied to ALL Samurai including the Females

[@stephenmoney4722]

"Hatamoto" was a samurai that would work DIRECTLY under the Shogun. John blackthorne went from barbarian to General pretty much 😂

[@gb3376]

Or under Daimyo (Daimyos are under Shogun). So in Blackthorn’s case, it means he became directly under Taranaga. This word Hatamoto means flag protector or ‘origin of the flag’. Every strong warlords has their own flag/crest and appoints some of their men to protect the flag (literally in battles).

Another fantastic episode that draws you in, whether it's with tense negotiations, fast action or clever strategy! Each weekly wait will be a struggle, but it will be worth it! Love John's bawdy humour with Rodrigues, his awkward admiration for Mariko, and his obvious respect for Toranaga! Watching this story develop, it is EASILY one of the best shows I've seen in a long time! Also love the cast/crew interview too! When those involved really care about what they're making, it REALLY shows! Great reactions, guys!

[@michaellockhart554]

Gat to remember Buntaro is Hiromatsu's son and Fuji is his granddaughter, also Mariko's father was the main General for a lord who is now dead, he was the main guy before the Taiko

[@Maozedundu]

That scene between Torunaga and Buntaro was probably the best "that" type of scene iv`e ever seen. Gace me chills that went through my soul

[@samlanganke1262]

John ist NOT a pirate. He mentions previously that he has a "letter of marque" from the Dutch, which means he is a privateer. The big difference is that a pirate is an outlaw who attacks random ships and bases to plunder for his own. A privateer may use the same methods but does it not (only) for himself but for the government he has the letter of marque from. So basically a privateer is a mercenary at sea who attacks only ships and bases he is legally authorized to from the government which hired him. In John's case only spanish and portuguese ones. This statue of a combatant protects him unter the laws of war. He can't be hanged like a criminal but has to be treated as a prisoner of war by his enemies. It can be argued that the Japanese don't care for all this because it is their territory and they are not at war neither with England and The Netherlands nor with Spain and Portugal. But it matters for the Portuguese. If they would play along their own laws they would have to admit publicly everything what John told Toranaga about them which will lead to their undoing. This is the main cause they want to kill him by assassins or hang him as a "pirate".

[@stephenmoney4722]

I agree, that he is most likely a privateer, but what about when he told Mariko, "i have no lords, i came out here on my own accord" makes me think hes more pirate than privateer (with what little difference that would make to japan). However, that statement he made could have been made from a privateer, or a pirate.

[@samlanganke1262]

@@stephenmoney4722 I think he means that literally. He does not serve an english lord. And he describes his motifs clearly in his monologue about the horizon. He sees himself as a sailor and explorer first. His service for the Dutch was just a way for him to do so. But as consequence he had not only to fulfill his role as a hired pilot but also as a mercenary in the greater protestant-catholic war at sea. Meaning to torch and plunder portuguese and spanish bases along the two year journey. The fact he basically sacrificed his family for his desire to be the first Englishman and protestant to reach "the Japans" underlines his dedication.

[@BlackDeathThrash]

I think they either missed that part, or they still don't understand the difference between pirate and privateer, OR I think they chose to ignore it so that they can keep using those stupid Pirates of the Caribbean movie clips in a lame attempt to appear funny or clever.

[@lizmccarthy-edwards2115]

Probably. I remember in the book Blackthorne was teaching Toranaga how to dive and he kept belly-flopping until he got it right. I remember that scene well because anyone who's ever belly-flopped knows how painful ( 😵 ) it is to do it once let alone do it multiple times as Toranaga did. It's a shame that was portrayed in the TV show because you really got a sense of Toranaga's perseverance and desire to learn as well as the bond emerging between these two.

He "knew" how to dive already- he wanted him to "bathe" as his smell was still not addressed especially now that he has a title of imnportance - and also maybe now a bit tired before the "race" to shore... Loving this series!!

[@charlesedwards2856]

I caught the bathing part as well and was cackling as he dove in over and over. I didn’t think about the fact of his new title being the reason why, just that the smell was terrible for them, hahaha! That said, his dive was more of a belly flop even after that, so I wonder if it wasn’t like 3-fold for him to learn, bathe John, and tire him out.

[@Birthday888]

Technically, this isn't true? The scene goes a bit differently in the book, but even in just watching the show, you can tell Toranaga actually bellyflops slightly when he goes to dive alongside John.

[@jasminda2401]

I never watched GoT but I relate. I love a good plot as much as everyone, but ever since I was a child, my real joy has been characters. So this episode was really perfect for me because we got to see more sides of the characters, especially Mariko-sama and John. It's so good.

Those four regents are definitely not allies. Remember, the Taiko chose them specifically because they all hated each other and did not get along, to maintain a political impasse until the Heir came of age. They only recently united on this one issue of distrust of Toranaga's motives because of his strategic family marriages making him more powerful, so now they're united in seeing him as a threat. But in all other matters they are not allies and do not get along.

[@sbam4881]

Blackthorn should actually feel at home witnessing the court intrigue going on in Japan 😂. After all, England had recently just emerged from the War of the Roses which had much the same ingredients: powerful lords switching sides multiple times like the Earl of Warwick and Baron Stanley, hostage taking, underage heirs being fought over by supposed protectors/regents and then getting "disappeared" (the Princes in the Tower) etc. Heck, he even named his son Tudor after the line that probably wouldn't have come to power if a certain faction hadn't switched sides _mid-battle_ at Bostworth Field (and *spoiler alert:* will also happen at Sekigahara 😛).

If they broke the Taiko rules (which each of the Regents had previously agreed to), then their enemies could claim they reneged on their words and thus could be viewed as usurpers - making it easier for their enemies to gather more allies.

A lot of the roles of females have been overlooked; I’m assuming due to modern sensibilities. Blackthorne’s reluctance to bathe is shown, but not his acquiescence and enjoyment of being bathed and dressed by lovely Japanese women every day. The influence of the various courtesans has also been downplayed so far. Of course Mariko fights. She isn’t a servant, but a Samarai like her husband. Female Samarai can also commit seppuku by cutting their throat instead of disembowlment.
