I really love how despite not appearing in the final episode, you can still feel Mariko's presence in how much she touched and was loved by every single character in the show. "Only her words remain with us now...but what a bonfire she made."
The moment when Blackthorn is realising how Mariko saved his life even after death and how he is leaving Osaka without her is the most heart-wrenching scene in the entire series. And the music... I can't...😢

@@madtitan0825in orignal 1980s miniseries he's like mustache twirling evil guy. In this new series he has his religious beliefs but actually struggles to be a decent person.
The heartbreaking subtleties of this scene of Anjin and Alvito in the woods - both loved Mariko/Maria in their separate ways, both had very deep affection for her; for Anjin, it was something akin to growing romantic love and perhaps even friendship as next to Yabushige, Mariko was the closest thing to a friend he had in Japan who didn’t predominantly see him as a well-liked but ultimately playable pawn as Toranaga saw him. For Alvito, there was what seemed a protective older brother’s love - something not lost in the cross that Alvito gave to a younger Mariko as a tether to keep her nearer to hope, and which interestingly became the token of grief and love that Anjin took from her dead body to remember her by (and which, heartbreaking detail, he was holding ever so tightly when he was quite ready to take his own life in protest of Toranaga’s putting the village to the sword). The two of them talking in the woods - Anjin and Alvito - is incredible as they’re both deeply mourning the same woman they loved - romantically for Anjin, brotherly/spiritually for Alvito, and in their shared grief something of a peace and almost brotherhood emerges. All possible because of the tragic loss of Mariko/Maria. Her presence over them, between them, within them in those woods is just - whoa.
In the book, Ainjin and Mariko had a passionate and brief affair while travelling to Osaka by foot. Spending many nights together, to the despair of their guards, it ended with the explosion. It made the loss all the more tragic and Blackthorne's despair all the more understandable.
The final episode of Shōgun is so emotional . The entire cast gives strong performances in this episode , I hope this series wins some Emmy awards ⚔️⚔️⚔️ .
My sentiment exactly. Everything was phenomenal - the sets to the costumes to the cinematography, but the actors brought it all together. The entire cast smoked it from major ones like Blackthorne, Toranaga & Lady Mariko to the major minor ones like Tommy Bastow as Father Alvito to Sinnosuke Abe as Buntaro & Tadanobu Asano as Yabushige. So good. If they don’t receive awards for their superlative work, it’ll be an epic travesty. 🙂👍
Alvito was always honest. From the moment he translated his first words to Toranaga to the end of the show. It was Blackthorne war against the Catholics that blindsided him from seeing his true friend.
Both he and the head priest had more screen time in the books and the old show with the deviantion from the books being the cut between Blackthorne and the Captain Ferera but both clergymen were honest though stuck in the imperial ambition of Portugal and Spain even during the confirmation of the treaty father Aquina told the truth seeing that lying to the japanese were more harmful than good and that they kept their words even protecting Blackthorne in the book against the captain of the black ship.
His character was consistent from the beginning. He translated Blackthornes words truthfully, made the Catholics sit with Toranaga and honored Marikos final wish.
I think priest alvito was also in love with mariko
6 месяцев назад+14
Because we are so used “”””Hollywood”””” making the holy man the bad guy, whose uses religion for his own selfish desires. That when they make a character who is genuinely religious and good we are surprised.
Mariko loved him deeply. The deal was her idea and she came up with it before they even left for Osaka. His life was so important to her that she made sure he was safe and protected even after her death. Just thinking about that makes me want to cry all over again.
This is why she held his finger when he asked her to consider living for him, he reciprocating without even knowing, lady Mariko spent her whole life being considerate to everyone for the greater of good for the realm, constant sacarfice, and anjin shows her worth in a simple line...the opposite of what she was striving for....
Here we finally get to see just how deep that 14-year friendship b/t Mariko & Alvito really goes. Its clear Alvito is in mourning, & is honouring his friends memory through carrying out her final wish
Sorry, but I don't agree. He is pretty flat in his deliveries and voice tone. I almost gave up on watching the series because of how bad I felt his acting was.
For a european thrust into samurai intrigued and trying to find his place in this new world, his "wtf is happening face" and "what the hell are these people using me for now" face js pretty situation appropriate😂😂😂@@vini_fly
The person this character is based on, did embrace Japan. He even had a Japanese wife and children, he even cared enough to send money to is still wife and kids in Europe.
@@Nefelena Wow... Very nice... My version is the 1244 page Coronet paperback... Get settled down, as it may take a while to work through it... You will probably discover that this 2024 version, and the classic 1980 version, ( with Richard Chamberlain, etc ) is rather different to the book story... But, it is OK, the basic story remains the same... Good luck !
The entire casts was incredible, but the fact that Tommy Bastow was able to shine in his scenes as Father Alvito speaks volumes of his work. He really exuded a decent Portuguese Catholic holy man who was caught between living the values of the church he believed with the real life politics of the country of Japan he was in that in essence challenged him. Also he really showed concern for Lady Mariko & decency with John Blackthorne. I mean the fact that Tommy had to do that haircut truly shows his dedication to the craft.😆🤣 And wow. That admission of Father Alvito who was a decent man at heart showing the power & grace Mariko had in this world was emotional. They crushed that scene. Anna Sawai’s performance as Mariko was so good you felt her presence in that scene. Cosmo showing all that emotion on his face was beautiful but heart breaking. I love that many mentioned Blackthorne’s bow of respect to Father Alvito. This finale was so good. I don’t know how they pulled it off. Everyone wanted a spectacular CGI battle but we amazing got calls, cutbacks, a flash forward, exposition, story telling & a dream within a dream; yet everyone freaking loved it. That is art. That is story telling. That is cinema or tv at its best hitting on all cylinders. If the show’s producers/show runners & actors don’t receive awards it’ll be a travesty.
In a lot of ways I think Alvito was just trying to make the best of his circumstances and was honest in his missionary work. Him respecting Mariko's wishes sealed it for me. It's not his fault he was caught up in a global empire and more senior clergy basically wrote him off every time he tried to re-orient them to their mission to God.
@@DreamersOfReality Father Alvito didn't have the luxury of choosing the character of his superiors. Would a proper man of god have turned away from helping his flock because politics made it inconvenient?
My favorite chants are the Asperges Me, the Gloria (Missa Orbis Factor), and the Credo I. There are a lot of versions of them on RUclips, but the best, in my opinion, are those with an organ accompaniment and a full choir. I think the Kyrie, Sanctus, and Agnus Dei in the Missa Joannis Pauli Secundi are the best versions of those chants.
This scene, for me, was the pinnacle of Episode 10. The nonsense of wars. Human beings that cannot tolerate the differences in such a matter that the other "must die". Followed by the dialogue between Yabushige and Toronaga. The smile of Toronaga, answering Yabushige at the very moment Yabushige is going.
4:22 that shot dude.. there is a sigh of relief but also sadness, he can see a new future towards it but also there is anger in him. he wants to cry but he can't. so much emotions expressed at once. Comos Jarvis bravo 🔥

Seeing the Portuguese and the Spanish being the side characters who have the same intention as they conquered the new world. Father Alvito helped Mariko with her grief and purpose. Mariko christian name Maria how both although of different cultures. Father Alvito served his purpose as a man of God and she ensured John was safe even after she was gone. Both lost a dear friend, John lost his love. Mariko will live on as a fearless honorable warrior graceful in elegance as a Lady.
They could have easily written Alvito as a cliche evil priest but I love how they wrote him as a a sort of naïve but nuanced character with conflicting feelings.
you know I'm surprised they didn't make Father Alvito some kind of evil manipulating character. haven't read the book but considering this is a Protestant PoV story, I would have thought there would be a harsher depiction of catholics. I'm surprised how caring and compassionate (and honest) Father Alvito is, definitely one of my favorite side characters in the show.
I thought this scene depicted Bushido's view of life and death through Mariko's death. Mariko continues to live, searching for value and purpose in death as well as in life. She is proud of her family lineage, accepts the mission given to her by Toranaga as the value of her death, and in the end, Mariko... He died while saving Anjin's life. Even though Mariko didn't appear in this scene, I think it was a wonderful scene that beautifully and poignantly portrayed Mariko's soul.
The part that everyone is missing here is that in 1616 Toranaga (historically Known as Tokugawa) wiped out the Christians in Japan. Its estimated he killed over 250,000 of his own people, to root out Christianity once and for all, and confined the Portuguese to Nagasaki for the next 250 years.
In the book this scene was quite different (If I make a mistake someone please correct me. It's been so long since I read the books) Blackthorne is actually escorted by Dell'Aqua instead of Alvito. John doesn't trust him, betting that the portuguese plan to kill him but Dell'Aqua assured him that's not the case. However once they reach the port Captain Ferriera and his crew await for Blackthorne and to burn him. This ends with a standoff between Ferriera and Dell'Aqua, the latter threathening to excomunicate Ferriera and his crew. Ferriera gives up and and orders his men aboard the ship. All follow except for one who tries to shoot John. Howevever the samurais kill him. This scene was present in the original show, except Ferriera is the one who dies.
I could not stand the priest and his [period accurate] hatred for protestants. He even admits to Blackthorne that he would have died there had Mariko not asked to spare him (in return for the ship). I cannot reconcile empathy with murderous intent. Blackthorne is the better and more honest man imho along with the protestant faith.
Best scene of the show. Alvito was such an impactful character despite little screen time. Edit: only flaw of the show is that there is no way Mariko remained in one piece after that blast.
Blast works in many ways. Sometimes people next to the blast are untouched, but others near them are killed, depends on the explosives & nature of surrounding materials.
It's so refreshing to see a production like this... amidst the swill Hollywood keeps throwing at us constantly. Watching these two actors at the top of their makes me believe that they're not acting.
“Not your god, or my god… just god” A perfect encapsulation of the utter lunacy of conflict between Catholics and Protestants. Not even arguing about which ‘holy’ text is true, but which interpretation of one ‘holy’ text is true. A completely insane waste of life and energy lasting centuries. And for what?
Utter lunacy? The protestant movement was a protest to the extreme oppression of both the catholic church in europe (killing "heretics" with fire) and the orthodox killing of pagans in Greece and Russia. Blackthorne was simply saying that in a moment of despair - he realized that God was the God of all men.
Funny how he says we'll never have peace, which at the time probably wasn't possible, but Protestants and Catholics no longer wage war. I'm Protestant and worked at a Catholic School. The Italian Priest there knew I was and we had some good conversations.
I was thinking how much this track reminded me of Panoramic from the Book of Eli. Lo and behold this is more fabulous work from Atticus Ross. So atmospheric.
This was the only way to spare Blackthornes life. Without his ship and supplies he brought they know he cannot do anything meaningful especially since they think Toronaga will surrender.
You have to respect Alvito's sense of Christian mercy. Because William Adams (Blackthorn's real historical counterpart) was the main cause and even one of the architects for Tokugawa Shogunate's brutal inquisition against the Catholics and all things Christian. Watch Scorsese's Silence as some sort of spinoff sequel for Shogun, and you shall see the handiwork Adams/Blackthorne and Ieyasu/Torunaga
In real life, the Shogun that Toranaga is based on banned all Christians from Japan, which set the stage for the series Blue Eyed Samurai a few decades later.
In the book, Avito knew that the Japanese would not accept Christianity. It was a mix of contempt and understanding of their culture. He was one of three western characters who seemed to really understand the japanese
I think the priest does have bitterness and vileness towards Blackthorne still, in his secret heart. Make no mistake, most of these characters are not pure goodness. And priests of any culture or religion never will be. Or humans in general... Like Blackthorne says, "there will never be peace". That is some George Carlin level realization of how world is and will be for the rest of this planets live.
@@JT11111 Wouldn't say nobody. Seems quite a few folks would like to see more, even if it's a prequel, or maybe even just diving in on each character. So yeah, more.
@@techniqueswithtodd quite afew people (like yourself) dont know what they’re actually asking for, because if they wanted to make more seasons, they would have stretched the story that ended in 10 episodes to multiple seasons, so the “deep dives” could have been explored there, bravo to the smart producers on doing a one and done, onto the next project they go.
Apparently no. Haven't read it but my understanding is they covered the whole book. Though if enough money is offered, I'm sure it'd give at least someone second thoughts
If it's the same as the original, there will be no season 2. The author is also already deceased. The story is based on fact. Although the names have been changed, Toranaga won the battle against Ishido and his clan's era lasted from 1603 to 1868, a time without war that Toranaga had hoped for. After that, Edo was renamed Tokyo. Anjin stayed in Japan until his death. There is a memorial at the site of his house in Tokyo and his grave in neighboring Kanagawa Prefecture.
Reading all the other responses, I guess: Only by knowing when to fall Do flowers become flowers And shows don't overstay themselves. "... but thankfully, the wind" - Ochiba No Kata, remote in hand, trying to remember which streaming service has 'The Expanse'.
The novel ends, but the history of Japan is interesting from here on out.The battle at Sekigahara with Ishido, a grand location similar to Game of Thrones, thousands of extras, and a bloody battle scene alone could make a second season. In season 3, the battle of Ochiba (Yodo-dono) who turned around and led Toranaga to victory in the Battle of Sekigahara, and his son fights Toranaga at the impregnable Osaka Castle, the winter camp, the battle of the summer camp, and the novel is written in a foreign country. Although the original author is a human being, starting from season 2, Japanese historians and talented screenwriters selected from Japan will be involved in the production, so the Japanese culture will be doubled.In season 2, Ochiha will be played by Fumika Nikaido, who will be the main character. It will be interesting because he will be the main character along with Hiroyuki Sanada.The Battle of Sekigahara, the Winter Siege, and the Summer Siege will reach the climax in history. Also, Mariko-sama and Yabushige, who passed away in season 1, will appear in flashback scenes, so they will likely appear in season 2 as well. Seasons 2 and 3 are likely to have a larger global audience than season 1. Please consider making a season 2.

Take note of Blackthorn. He's so absorbed Japanese culture that he _bows_ to his fellow foreigner.

Mariko continues to live, searching for value and purpose in death as well as in life. She is proud of her family lineage, accepts the mission given to her by Toranaga as the value of her death, and in the end, Mariko... He died while saving Anjin's life.
Even though Mariko didn't appear in this scene, I think it was a wonderful scene that beautifully and poignantly portrayed Mariko's soul.
I like this scene. Both the priest and Blackthorne played nicely.
I can see pain in his eyes
Another heart broken 😢
You can actually pinpoint the second when his heart rips in half.
The part that everyone is missing here is that in 1616 Toranaga (historically Known as Tokugawa) wiped out the Christians in Japan. Its estimated he killed over 250,000 of his own people, to root out Christianity once and for all, and confined the Portuguese to Nagasaki for the next 250 years.
The Portuguese weren't allowed at all. It was the Dutch who were allowed to trade through Nagasaki, because they agreed not to evangelize.
If Tokugawa hadn't done that, the Japanese actors' native language would have been Portuguese, I imagine.
Father Alvito is based on Fr. João Rodrigues, SJ
It breaks my heart that they will risk cheapening this masterpiece by making more seasons.
Blackthorne's face as he get's sailed away heartbreaking
In the book this scene was quite different (If I make a mistake someone please correct me. It's been so long since I read the books)
Blackthorne is actually escorted by Dell'Aqua instead of Alvito. John doesn't trust him, betting that the portuguese plan to kill him but Dell'Aqua assured him that's not the case. However once they reach the port Captain Ferriera and his crew await for Blackthorne and to burn him. This ends with a standoff between Ferriera and Dell'Aqua, the latter threathening to excomunicate Ferriera and his crew. Ferriera gives up and and orders his men aboard the ship. All follow except for one who tries to shoot John. Howevever the samurais kill him.
This scene was present in the original show, except Ferriera is the one who dies.
I was a sobbing mess during this scene I had to pause and take a break. The priest ended up being one of my favourite characters. What a show.
I could not stand the priest and his [period accurate] hatred for protestants. He even admits to Blackthorne that he would have died there had Mariko not asked to spare him (in return for the ship). I cannot reconcile empathy with murderous intent.
Blackthorne is the better and more honest man imho along with the protestant faith.
Best scene of the show. Alvito was such an impactful character despite little screen time.
Edit: only flaw of the show is that there is no way Mariko remained in one piece after that blast.
Blast works in many ways. Sometimes people next to the blast are untouched, but others near them are killed, depends on the explosives & nature of surrounding materials.
Also that and there is no way Tornaga's ridiculous plan would work.
It's so refreshing to see a production like this... amidst the swill Hollywood keeps throwing at us constantly. Watching these two actors at the top of their makes me believe that they're not acting.
Just great acting across the board really...
Great acting by everyone involved. ❤
I hope FX will adapt Noble House at some point!
That day will come. End of days.
“Not your god, or my god… just god” A perfect encapsulation of the utter lunacy of conflict between Catholics and Protestants. Not even arguing about which ‘holy’ text is true, but which interpretation of one ‘holy’ text is true. A completely insane waste of life and energy lasting centuries. And for what?
Exactly because Orthodoxy is true
Utter lunacy? The protestant movement was a protest to the extreme oppression of both the catholic church in europe (killing "heretics" with fire) and the orthodox killing of pagans in Greece and Russia.
Blackthorne was simply saying that in a moment of despair - he realized that God was the God of all men.
The show was pretty faithful to the book. Everyone should read the book. Some slight changes.
Like how the soldiers at the back just standing there without knowing what they are saying.
Just GOD.
EP1 : didn't like Alvito (even though he didn't do anything wrong). by EP 10 : I like Alvito, he was never dishonest.
This show was simply amazing
Farewell Father

Funny how he says we'll never have peace, which at the time probably wasn't possible, but Protestants and Catholics no longer wage war. I'm Protestant and worked at a Catholic School. The Italian Priest there knew I was and we had some good conversations.
I should re watch it.
I’m going to. There were some subtleties I didn’t pick up on initially.
@@lisasharf1442 totally worty watch it again.
I was thinking how much this track reminded me of Panoramic from the Book of Eli. Lo and behold this is more fabulous work from Atticus Ross. So atmospheric.
This was the only way to spare Blackthornes life. Without his ship and supplies he brought they know he cannot do anything meaningful especially since they think Toronaga will surrender.
Does anyone know the soundtrack at the end of the scene
Its called Two Hearts. You can find it on the Shogun tracklist.😊
@@shr.rub.bry1that’s a good track but it’s not this one. This one is unfortunately missing from the album
@@jacobflores78 It’s called “Confession”
@@ОлегМалкавианthank you! I’ll look it up 🙌
You have to respect Alvito's sense of Christian mercy.
Because William Adams (Blackthorn's real historical counterpart) was the main cause and even one of the architects for Tokugawa Shogunate's brutal inquisition against the Catholics and all things Christian.
Watch Scorsese's Silence as some sort of spinoff sequel for Shogun, and you shall see the handiwork Adams/Blackthorne and Ieyasu/Torunaga
Aún sigo llorando por ti Mariko sama😢
“It was Lady Maria” 😭
He didn't have to say that.
In real life, the Shogun that Toranaga is based on banned all Christians from Japan, which set the stage for the series Blue Eyed Samurai a few decades later.
He sounds exactly like Russel Crow in Gladiator
What is the name of the soundtrack that plays when Blackthorne js rowing away? I can’t find it on the Spotify soundtrack!
It’s called ‘Confession’, it’s on Volume 2

Is this show a single season only?
In the book, Avito knew that the Japanese would not accept Christianity. It was a mix of contempt and understanding of their culture. He was one of three western characters who seemed to really understand the japanese
Kinda cool guy.
Father Alvito had -Rizz
Mariko sama + John Blaclthorne...
Given this later history of Christianity being banned, he will be martyred in Japan. It brings tears to my eyes.
He later moved to China after the ban on Christianity and became an interpreter there as well
Blackthorne rode the boat and became a twitch streamer
The actor who plays Blackthorne could narrate War Of The Worlds. Sounds like Richard Burton.
Soundtrack name 😥
It’s called “Confession”
I think the priest does have bitterness and vileness towards Blackthorne still, in his secret heart. Make no mistake, most of these characters are not pure goodness. And priests of any culture or religion never will be. Or humans in general... Like Blackthorne says, "there will never be peace". That is some George Carlin level realization of how world is and will be for the rest of this planets live.
Where is the orange garb
Mmm. I think, a Portuguese Jesuit priest wouldn't have said "Good luck," but "Vá com Deus."
Who else thinks this show was AMAZING!!!!!! Who wants PREQUEL?
No one, good things are good because they dont over welcome their stay, stop it with season 2 rubbish, the story does not need another season
Don’t create the next GOT ending pls lol
@@JT11111 Wouldn't say nobody. Seems quite a few folks would like to see more, even if it's a prequel, or maybe even just diving in on each character. So yeah, more.
@@mayl4152 Obviously, not that yeah. Just more good stuff.
@@techniqueswithtodd quite afew people (like yourself) dont know what they’re actually asking for, because if they wanted to make more seasons, they would have stretched the story that ended in 10 episodes to multiple seasons, so the “deep dives” could have been explored there, bravo to the smart producers on doing a one and done, onto the next project they go.
The sound of crows; it is ubiquitous in Japan.
i could never get around to liking him
..who is lady maria
Mariko
That is not Father Alvito
Is there a second part or not?
Apparently no. Haven't read it but my understanding is they covered the whole book.
Though if enough money is offered, I'm sure it'd give at least someone second thoughts
@@solokalnesaltam3015 You dont ruin something good by overdoing it, so there is no season 2 as there shouldnt be
If it's the same as the original, there will be no season 2. The author is also already deceased. The story is based on fact. Although the names have been changed, Toranaga won the battle against Ishido and his clan's era lasted from 1603 to 1868, a time without war that Toranaga had hoped for. After that, Edo was renamed Tokyo. Anjin stayed in Japan until his death. There is a memorial at the site of his house in Tokyo and his grave in neighboring Kanagawa Prefecture.
No second season
Reading all the other responses, I guess:
Only by knowing when to fall
Do flowers become flowers
And shows don't overstay themselves.
"... but thankfully, the wind" - Ochiba No Kata, remote in hand, trying to remember which streaming service has 'The Expanse'.
I said I can.
The novel ends, but the history of Japan is interesting from here on out.The battle at Sekigahara with Ishido, a grand location similar to Game of Thrones, thousands of extras, and a bloody battle scene alone could make a second season. In season 3, the battle of Ochiba (Yodo-dono) who turned around and led Toranaga to victory in the Battle of Sekigahara, and his son fights Toranaga at the impregnable Osaka Castle, the winter camp, the battle of the summer camp, and the novel is written in a foreign country. Although the original author is a human being, starting from season 2, Japanese historians and talented screenwriters selected from Japan will be involved in the production, so the Japanese culture will be doubled.In season 2, Ochiha will be played by Fumika Nikaido, who will be the main character. It will be interesting because he will be the main character along with Hiroyuki Sanada.The Battle of Sekigahara, the Winter Siege, and the Summer Siege will reach the climax in history.
Also, Mariko-sama and Yabushige, who passed away in season 1, will appear in flashback scenes, so they will likely appear in season 2 as well.
Seasons 2 and 3 are likely to have a larger global audience than season 1.
Please consider making a season 2.
