Shogun
Warning ! Spoilers ahead for Shōgunepisode 10 .
Summary
Well , we were very careful never to say clear if he always wanted it or not . As before long as around episode four , he says he ’s not concerned in becoming Shōgun — but he says many things for strategic reasons and his real intention is sometimes mysterious . If you demand me , I think that statement is true in this version of the floor . Toranaga did n’t specifically seek that position but finally , he need the title of Shōgun to make his dream of peace come true .
I feel myself relating to this because it kind of overlapped with my billet on this production . You know , on all of the movies and television set shows I worked on before , I never wanted or asked for the claim of manufacturer . But on this task , I start to experience the limit of what I can say and do behind the scenes as an histrion . You know , sometimes I had a strong position on how we should do by something , but I would have some hesitation to say it and I would n’t require to suffer other actors ’ or crew members ’ pride .
last , though , they take me to be a full producer this time . Right aside , I feel a braggart difference between make this title and not having it . I could apportion my views right aside . Everyone would heed , and the production would move forward . stimulate this title earmark me to help make a much good show . So maybe it was the same for Toranaga . He did n’t really desire it . But at some point , he realized the only way to make a peaceful era was to become Shōgun himself .
Toranaga ’s subtle smile to Yabushige during Shogun episode 10 ’s seppuku prospect let out a lot about his character without the demand for exposition .
Toragana’s Grand Plan To Become Shōgun Explained
What Toranaga’s Crimson Sky Really Was
While the series finale does n’t actually show Toranaga ascending to the role of Shōgun , it makes readable that this is where things are lead . He will eventually good Ishido ( Takehiro Hira ) in battle , having gnaw the warlord ’s al-Qa’ida of power . Earlier in the serial publication , it was divulge that Toranaga had a grand plan call Crimson Sky , which would see his forces rage Osaka Castle and quickly seize power , culminate with Toragana as Shōgun .
Crimson Sky was n’t , however , the violent takeover of Osaka Castle that was taunt . Instead , the design was far more subtle and it really only imply one soul . As becomes clear inShōgunepisodes 9 and 10 , theCrimson Sky plan need onlyAnna Sawai ’s Lady Marikoto work . Mariko would go to Osaka Castle and pressure Ishido ’s helping hand . The goal of the plan was to disclose that Ishido was keep other regents ' families surety in the castle , and Mariko ’s death finally make this clear , importantly reducing his number of allies .
As is seen in theShōgunfinale ’s brief flash forward to Toranaga ’s battle with Ishido , he will emerge winning in this twisting battle for political king . Toranaga has systematically out - plan and out - operate his enemy , hiding his true intention and using those around him as pawns to achieve his aims . According to Sanada , however , Toranaga was n’t all distraction inShōgun , and there was the true to his title that the eponymous title was not one he want at the beginning .
