Loved the final episode. A dream of a dream. Blackthorne never reached 'home' never died an old man in Tudor digs with grandchildren, with pale blue eyes. He was holding Mariko's crucifix. That was 'buried' at sea with Fuji's husband and son. No need for a battle, Crimson Sky had done it all, made by the bonfire of Mariko's actions and sacrifice. Best show I have seen in years. Now to binge watch it with my wife.
-
Not a different cross, present Blackthorne is dreaming about a future Blackthorne, a future he gives up. Anjin never returns, he thrives, marries and dies in Japan.
-
Yabushige in the first episode : “Why tell a dead man the future” Toranaga to Yabushige in finale : “Why tell a dead man the future” Me to the entire cast/crew/creators/writers (in Blackthornes voice) : “WELL DONE YOU GLORIOUS BASTARDS!!!” This show was brilliant!
-
Immediately after watching episode 10, I was unhappy about not depicting the Battle of Sekigahara, but when I remembered Toranaga's line to Nagakado, "Those who have never experienced warfare want to fight immediately," I knew that I had Nagakado in my heart, and at the same time I realized how great he was for winning the battle without spilling blood.
-
I hope Shogun wins all the Emmys as it certainly deserves it. An excellent drama with such a laser focus on cultural and historical accuracy. Bravo!
-
Wow, I just learned that the bay where Fuji spread out the ashes of Fuji’s husband and baby and where Anjin gave to the deep sea Mariko’s cross, was the same bay that the Clavell Family grew up in, and where they spread James Clavell’s ashes when he died ….. Michaela, James’ daughter, was so emotional when she was talking about this …
-
44:28 Toranaga was not trying to avoid being Shogun, he was actively manipulating his way to it. Like in the first episode's monologue where he remarks on the bird hiding in the sun.
-
The scene where Fuji and John was sitting together was beautiful. That simple, emotional, powerful scene was able to even make me cry.
-
I love that he and Fuji-Sama had such a beautiful moment together, burying their lives at sea, before she left.
-
I’m glad the show didn’t heavily rely on action, I know some are sad that we didn’t get enough action but I think the show was meant to be about the diplomats not the impending war which is why the show runners stated it was more like house of cards and not game of thrones
-
What a finale! This show is a masterclass in how to craft perfect television! 10/10 final episode for a 10/10 show! I'm gonna miss Shōgun so much!🌟✨️🎉
-
“flowers are only flowers because they fall… but thankfully, the wind.” PHEW! had to pause the episode for a cry break there haha. this show man. i’m so grateful for it. thank you guys for these wonderful reactions. ❤️
-
Only by knowing when to fall Do flowers become flowers And people become people by : Hosokawa Gracia ( Akechi Mariko ) . "a good story is only good because it has an end.. " I'm gonna miss this show. it was truly special . thanks for your reaction guys !
-
So many full circle moments in this episode. This was a masterclass in storytelling and cinematography from beginning to end. I’m gonna miss these characters!
-
After watching the episode twice, I conclude that the flashfoward is not really a flashfoward but a dream of how blackthorne sees himself in the future. Not in japan anymore and still holding on to the cross (not letting go of mariko). He lets that dream go when hes about to commit seppuku but doesnt really let it go until he drops the cross in the river.
-
Mariko to Fuji in the first episode : “Let her hands be the last to hold her son.” Fuji to John in finale : “Let your hands be the last to hold her.”
-
The first episode ended showing the back of Toranaga's head probably telling us that the 'Shogun" was merely an idea, an ambition inside of his head. Now in the last episode it ends with Toranaga's back once again but this time it zooms out, showing the land beyond telling us that this man in front of us was finally the shogun of Japan, no longer an idea, or an ambition - he is, SHOGUN.
-
THANK YOU ALL SO MUCH for being so great week-to-week, flavoring our experiences with your insights & interpretations - stuff like this make it easy to remember why we love doing this stuff :)) What was your FAVORITE scene from the FINALE??
-
最終話を見てまた1話から見始めた。 何度見ても、細かな動き、目線、唄、言葉に散りばめられたその先にあるストーリーに一片の無駄が無く、見れば見るほど深い感心に包まれる。 血を流す戦いも人の裏切りももう沢山だという虎永の思い通りの素晴らしいエンディングだった。 この時代に生まれ、この素晴らしいショーを見る事が出来て幸せだった。
