When Toranaga-sama laughs after the earthquake, I can almost see him thinking, “I nearly sold this guy to the Portuguese, and now he pulls me out of the ground and gives me his 2 swords”. Life is strange!
@@DarkTyrantI wonder if toranaga was in on that deal seeing how he laughed? Idk that was my first thought but either way it was a crazy sequence of events.
@@Bizman-96 Tononaga-sama is a clever and intelligent man. He quickly deduced that his son was used to instigate war. I would also assume that he knew of her father's cowardice since he was also Tononaga-sama's underling, and yet still protected her honor with gifting her fake swords. Hell, he probably came up with the plan to give her the swords, hence his laughter when he got them back. Since he probably doesn't know that Hatamoto knows that they're just worth 3 sacks of rice.
@@DarkTyrantYes, he probably doesn’t know that Blackthorne knows the swords are bought, because he doesn’t know Mariko-San told him. Blackthorne is still agonizing over the Gardener’s death. He told Mariko-San the pheasant was meaningless. She set him straight by telling him point-blank that he GAVE it meaning when he FORBADE anyone to get rid of it. Maybe I’m seeing what I want to see, but I’m thinking that he quickly realized that by seeing Toranaga-sama unarmed, giving him those 2 swords now gives THEM meaning as well. Maybe Toranaga-sama also sees that, which is why he is actually laughing… Mario-San watched the whole thing. I wonder what she thinks of the Anjin-San now. I’m sure her mind is in turmoil. One minute he’s a stupid stubborn barbarian, the next he is brave, generous, and dare we say insightful…? He certainly learns quickly. He’s easily the most fascinating man she’s ever met.
If you read the book, Toranaga starts screaming at the ravine and Blackthorne cracks up. They both laugh and together piss in the chasm which nearly killed them.
So glad Fuji isnt dead. I kinda wish she and John grow closer together through this. Her giving John her fathers swords is my favorite moment in the series so far.
It's also the gardening thing he did, recognising and demonstrating to Fuji-sama that he understood the significance of what he'd caused and atoning for saying (not that she would necessarily have understood it) that the gardener died for nothing, by fixing his work.
@@AllaMortifyi think it's not really for nothing..spoilers with the "fake spy" thing..just like what mariko said, he died for greater cause, although not everyone knows that..
@@wackwabbit3831 I wasn't clear entirely on whether anyone but the Samurai spy knew about that going on. I thought it was just a convenient death-followed-by-disaster that he was clever enough to use to their aims. At the time of his death being ordered I'm pretty sure it was just that the pheasant had become a public health issue (fun fact, that really WAS how pheasant was cured in England at the time and some regions still do it today- he just forgot about it for waaaay too long with everything else that was going on) and yet the standing orders were that touching it meant death- so the gardener who was feeling more and more sick volunteered to solve the issue and give meaning to his death. And that after that, the earthquake and him being already dead was a super convenient cover.
I assume Toranaga didn't expect John (the Anjin) to save him during the earthquake. I'm also glad Fuji survived, and that face John made to her makes me think it was him apologizing for all his wrongdoing so far, and asks for forgiveness.
Is it common for Anjin/non-married person of opposite sex to touch his consort Fuji as her reaction to his touching out of concern seems like conflict of emotions? Tolerance or annoying admiration between Fuji and John?
@@DelectableDaysnah blackthorne is all about saving lives if possible. He despised kashigi but still wanted to save him after he fell from the cliff. He wanted to go back and bring Marikos husband onto the boat even though he didn’t like him and even his wife wasn’t protesting to save him. He had mad respect for toronaga, trying to save him was a lot more than just self preservation
I dont know if that was exactly the feeling. Dude fell down the ravine thinking he was dead, woke up and probably expected to see all his ancestors. Nope, white guy. xD
@@nachonachoman well... he's famous for one reason... plus eastern TV don't do acting and editing like western shows do where you just fix it in post...
A sword that was only worth three bags of rice to some unknown samurai has found new worth. A katana is only as valuable to the person that holds it. I LOVE IT. A sword only has as much value, meaning and usefulness as its user. There's just so much behind how its being passed down in the story, I hope others caught on to it.
A friend of mine thought at first that Toranaga-Sama would be offended by the Anjin-san's "worthless" gift, but I told him that a gift, honorably given, is NEVER worthless, and as you said, those two swords have just become THE most important swords in the whole empire.
That Face he makes..... A man who has trusted no one but himself (for good reason) coming to realize "Anjin might actually have my back.... a fucking English??"
The thing to bring down great men is mother nature. Nothing quite so humbling as that. And we almost lost the home girl so soon after we saw her being badass 😢
After studying earthquakes and their effects like how it can make tons and tons of dirt flow like an ocean, I was just speechless watching exactly that happen at the end of the episode, I don't think I've seen it more accurately done in any movie or show.
A son and a daughter were born to Anjin Miura (William Adams) and his Japanese wife; Japanese actress Kilin Kiki, who died in 2018, is a descendant of Anjin Miura.
In 2016, a program called "Family History" aired on Japan's NHK, tracing back the family tree of Kikirin Kiki, revealed that her paternal Miura family ancestors, who were adopted by her son-in-law, were Hatamoto's Miura family.
The CGI in this scene was superb. They must have studied landslides from real videos, seeing as Hollywood loves to absolutely botch depictions of natural disasters I was pleasantly surprised
@@AankerStoneshield In Hollywoods defense somewhat, their job is to provide entertainment via spectacle, and often the reality of a thing is boring. For a grounded series like this I fully agree, this approach was fantastic. But if they're making a big disaster film, go crazy with it don't go for perfect realism 😂
incredible ending to episode 5, the music, the way John comes to his realisation of what he is beginning to love and understand in this new world. This series is phenomenal
New Zealand has the nickname ‘The Shaky Isles’. It’s yet something else we Kiwis share with Japan. Where I lived, it seemed there was a decent quake every few weeks. You know you’ve got accustomed to them when you can continue drinking a cup of coffee while watching buildings sway back and forth across the street. They still scared the crap out of me. It was the utter helplessness.
As someone who's also from NZ, I've always been amazed at some of the similarities between our country and Japan. Both are island countries, so we're geographically similar. Earthquakes are also common place here. The vowels in Japanese are almost identical to the ones in te reo Māori too. Japan is an amazing place.
It always feels a bit surreal when the shaking stops but you still get those smaller waves that make you feel like you're on the ocean while on land. Luckily the only major quake I've experienced was Loma Prieta in '89.
I was in Japan on deployment in 1984, and mightily impressed with it's beauty, and the people. I heard a Japanese Colonel sing a 500 year old love song. My first experience listening to Karaoke.
There is a recording of a earthquake (I think in Alaska early 1900s, but I can't find it) that was shown to me during a Geology class in college. Its filmed from a boat, but you could swear you where looking at the ocean with how the land just became a liquid. This show mimicked it perfectly.
@@jamiedildine1785 Pretty sure it was an earlier event. It was mentioned as not the biggest during class. Also the film quality was very low. Think maybe the 1938 one but could have sworn it was even earlier. Still can't find the video.
@perceptionmatters7082 16mm and 8mm was the standard at the time. Color film vs black and white had a major price difference. So something shot in the 1960's in B&W could look like something from the 1930's with the modern lenses of today's perspective.
Much greater earthquakes have happened in that past and still will. But bc of changes in technology (e.g., building materials etc.) and predictive abilities the consequences are no longer as strongly suffered.
Such a tragic but beautiful scene where you can see Blackthorne is finally beginning to understand why the Japanese are the way they are. Also that part with Fuji-sama broke my heart😵
such a pivotal scene in the novel, truly the beginning of Toranaga-sama's friendship with the Anjin-san, 1980 was good but with 2024 visual effects it truly hits home.
TheAnjin, John saves Toranaga after get buried on the landslide, the and again by giving the Daito, Katana, the swords. A samurai's life is with his swords, losing then with would bring shame and the end of his life by seppuku.
Minor quakes are pretty common where I live. Highest I've experienced was a 7.1, which made things a bit bumpy for a few minutes, but something like this would be insane. A quake with liquefaction would be terrifying.
Yeah. I watch a RUclips movie which was recorded on January 1st this year where big earthquakes hit in Noto area. The landslides were terrifying. I was quite surprised that they made the scene pretty authentic.
Since I have seen the 1980 one as well so I pretty sure what is going to happen next, glad they are true to the original, also liking this one as well.
It's also like holding a knife in your pocket while moving through a dark alley with no present danger. Toranaga has trained with swords his entire life. He never feels more secure than with his hand on their hilt; It's a psychological brace
Did they leave out the scene where Blackthorne and Toranaga laugh and piss on the cracked ground together? Why? It shows how good solid their friendship had become by then
I think they omitted that part because of the story with the gardener. It would've disturbed the flow of the episode if they did the comedic pissing scene, lol
I understand " O Kega wa" can be used as expression of "Are you okay now" to instil some kind of relief to the person who had almost deadly accident. kinda like when you get carcrashed, get bruised up but somehow survive. But the litertal meaning is "Any Injuries?"..what de hell dude he was almost become Potato underground and you ask for any injuries..hahaha.
Just consider the ownership history as well. Those swords went from a drunken samurai, to an Englishman a long way from home, to one of the most powerful men in Japan. Even if it turns out their actual steel quality is garbage, stick them in a museum anyway.
There are several landslide vids online from California. They have stragne general creaking and popping then a MASSIVE upheaval. It's incredible. and nothing seems to be "under" the push, like it's not water or a large rock pushing out. The dirt just seems to push. Look up the one that is one the beach. One that is water-based, these landscapers are filming as they try to get in the truck. Looks like in the hills above LA. Narrow street, walls and houses around. The bushes and trees just "come into" the road. In one motion. At first, it's just alarm and you can see stuff shaking, as they are jumping into the truck WHOOSH, her comes the greenery. It's very rapid but calm seemingly. The greener and obvious dirt is folling the truck down the hill, held in by the walls and surrounding houises. Behind the truck ..... it flows like a river. Smashing cars. etc etc. It's not just the greenery BY the road, in the back you can see MUD still pushing, an incredible amount of mud. Truck drives like crazy. It al;l still follows.
Blackthorn jumping down for future Shogun first (Ahead of any Japanies samurai) and His first aid/treatment - surprise, surprise for such sequence of activities here
This show is absolutely amazing. From the story down to the cinematics if you think they're doing the original an injustice you're wearing rose tinted glasses
Japan has abundant water resources and is an island nation surrounded by the sea, making it excellent for land defense. However, it must continue to contend with the disasters of periodic earthquakes and tsunamis.
By accepting Blackthorne's swords, Lord Toranaga has made them the 2nd MOST valuable swords in the whole empire, with only the sacred sword of the emperor, Kusanagi-no-Tsurugi, one of the three imperial regalia, aka "The Three Treasures", being greater.
I did some quick research because I was interested. There were 3 major earthquakes at this time. One in the 9th century, one in the 17th century and one in the 18th century (1703 in Tokyo). As Blackthorne arrives around the year 1600, it can be assumed that the Keichō Sanriku earthquake is shown here (1611). Over 4000 people lost their lives. The quake triggered a wave of over 20 metres that travelled 4 km inland. I don't know if it's this quake, as I've never actively watched the series. Maybe some viewers know about the approximate timing of the named episode. 🧐But it could also be that it is simply a small local earthquake and was only chosen for the film moment. However, if the year 1610 - 1611 is mentioned in the episode or the episode before it, the series makers could have been hinting at the well-known earthquake.
I don't think it's necessarily about them ending up together. First of all, Fuji is his consort so they're technically together anyway. Secondly, Blackthorne is rushing to his household because he learned that the world is desruptive and people there are his to care for. Fuji's life depends on him. Just like the gardener.
2:17 I wonder why Hiroyuki Sanada decided to laugh at that moment. Like what was he thinking as an actor, what feeling he was trying to convey. I usually figure these things out very easily but this show, i mean so many things can be interpreted so many different ways i do not know which one would be more accurate.
I've seen the argument, that he's laughing as he considers that he very nearly handed Blackthorne over to the Portuguese and how well the decision not to has just worked out for him.
I had read that this Series and the Characters are based and inspired by the Original History of Japan, Toranaga here is clearly inspired by Tokugawa Ieyasu...did he (Ieyasu) really nearly died in a Earthquake?
When Toranaga-sama laughs after the earthquake, I can almost see him thinking, “I nearly sold this guy to the Portuguese, and now he pulls me out of the ground and gives me his 2 swords”. Life is strange!
Not to mention the swords he received were bought for only 3 bags of rice and used to lie and protect Hatamoto's wifes honor.

And the Fuji name comes full circle
If you read the book, Toranaga starts screaming at the ravine and Blackthorne cracks up. They both laugh and together piss in the chasm which nearly killed them.
You beat me to it! Cheers!
Damn I kinda wish they had that in there now
That's right, Toranaga is even glad because of the earthquake Blackthone understood concept of Karma.
@@WujekFu Ah yes! Very good! Remember karma is the beginning of knowledge and that if you don't give way to the seven emotions, you're patient.

A Samurai's swords are considered an extension of themselves, so he was likely trying to secure them.

One that is water-based, these landscapers are filming as they try to get in the truck. Looks like in the hills above LA. Narrow street, walls and houses around.
The bushes and trees just "come into" the road. In one motion. At first, it's just alarm and you can see stuff shaking, as they are jumping into the truck WHOOSH, her comes the greenery.
It's very rapid but calm seemingly.
The greener and obvious dirt is folling the truck down the hill, held in by the walls and surrounding houises.
Behind the truck ..... it flows like a river. Smashing cars. etc etc.
It's not just the greenery BY the road, in the back you can see MUD still pushing, an incredible amount of mud.
Truck drives like crazy. It al;l still follows.
Blackthorn jumping down for future Shogun first (Ahead of any Japanies samurai) and His first aid/treatment - surprise, surprise for such sequence of activities here
Great episode⚡⚡
what is the song played during the blackthorne come and look fuji and fix the stones at garden. PLEASE I NEED IT
It's not a part of the soundtrack from what I can tell as of now. Maybe it was a bonus?
This show is absolutely amazing. From the story down to the cinematics if you think they're doing the original an injustice you're wearing rose tinted glasses
Wonderfully acted
What’s the song starting from 3:20 isit on the soundtrack?
it is so good. also need the name
Pls song name
Does anyone know the soundtrack name for this scene? I cannot find it anywhere and I love it !!
What's going to happen from now on because Toranaga lost his army due to the earthquake and the following landslide they were buried all over
Amazing show
1980年版は、三船敏郎が小さな割れ目に落ちて、按針が手で引っ張り上げるだけだったけど、今作はスケールが違うな。
intense scene
Great scene love Hiroyuki Sanada but you gotta admit the thumbnail looks hilarious if you dont know the context of the scene xD
Japan has abundant water resources and is an island nation surrounded by the sea, making it excellent for land defense.
However, it must continue to contend with the disasters of periodic earthquakes and tsunamis.
The last two episodes have been wild
By accepting Blackthorne's swords, Lord Toranaga has made them the 2nd MOST valuable swords in the whole empire, with only the sacred sword of the emperor, Kusanagi-no-Tsurugi, one of the three imperial regalia, aka "The Three Treasures", being greater.
I want to watch this movie but i dont want to give money to disney+
I did some quick research because I was interested. There were 3 major earthquakes at this time. One in the 9th century, one in the 17th century and one in the 18th century (1703 in Tokyo). As Blackthorne arrives around the year 1600, it can be assumed that the Keichō Sanriku earthquake is shown here (1611). Over 4000 people lost their lives. The quake triggered a wave of over 20 metres that travelled 4 km inland. I don't know if it's this quake, as I've never actively watched the series. Maybe some viewers know about the approximate timing of the named episode. 🧐But it could also be that it is simply a small local earthquake and was only chosen for the film moment. However, if the year 1610 - 1611 is mentioned in the episode or the episode before it, the series makers could have been hinting at the well-known earthquake.
How much did each episode cost to make? Every episode looks like a big budget blockbuster. Technically impressive on every level.
このドラマ、やたらと地震多いよな。外人から見た日本の印象なのだろう。
Could be
do they end up together? i feel like the show is setting them up.. and mariko having a heartbreaking heroic end..
Well do u want spoilers
yess
I don't think it's necessarily about them ending up together. First of all, Fuji is his consort so they're technically together anyway.
Secondly, Blackthorne is rushing to his household because he learned that the world is desruptive and people there are his to care for. Fuji's life depends on him. Just like the gardener.
Great scene
0:47 top right corner?
The village being engulfed in moving earth?
@@RetroDaddyPH full of greenhouses?
@@mamazur actually those are the military tents for the army encampment.
Yes and the book mentioned a 150 samurai in the camp perished
@@mamazur😂😂😂
これは慶長の大地震のときの加藤清正ですね。でも天変地異、自然現象を時代劇の枢要なイベントに据える外国人の視点を日本の映画人は見習わなくては。江戸期、安政の大地震や富士大噴火があったけど時代劇にほとんど反映されていない。日本映画はポリコレばかり気にして、まったく進歩、発展がない
awsome
the ost ?
The way they use geography to portray why Japanese society there are so accepting to death is marvelous.
Goji needs to stop moving so much in his sleep
On what budget is this production on?
That was scary and awesome
このシーン凄いぶっ飛んだ～！ヤッパリハリウッドとの合作効果は目を見張るものが有る。
The fact Blackthorne just said he wanted to leave the country permanently and then gets hit by an earthquake is so fucked.
When the entire mountain above you becomes a non-Newtonian liquid.
It must be suck to live in Feudal Japan knowing there's constant wars, famine, and natural disasters.
I can tell you for a fact they would not be standing still like this from an earthquake of that magnitude
2:17 I wonder why Hiroyuki Sanada decided to laugh at that moment. Like what was he thinking as an actor, what feeling he was trying to convey. I usually figure these things out very easily but this show, i mean so many things can be interpreted so many different ways i do not know which one would be more accurate.
He laughs in the book too, basically out of adrenaline
@@1998rg ah didnt know that. That is damn good attention to detail
I've seen the argument, that he's laughing as he considers that he very nearly handed Blackthorne over to the Portuguese and how well the decision not to has just worked out for him.
If I survive that landslide and be given a sword right after I would laugh too.
He was given the sword worth 3 bags of rice after surviving an earths quake which is Bizarre for someone of his rank
Suddenly it became 2012
You mean March 11th, 2011.
@@yojin4103 no I mean the apocalypse movie when everyone thought the world would end 12/12/12
Bro someone tell me what music is this at the end I've looked everywhere
sadly i believe it wasn't offically released with the Album.
Was this part of Toranaga's plan, too?
JAPAN has many Volcanos.

Did earthquake destroy whole army? Or just village?
Can someone help me please?…That landslide: did it role over where his army was encamped? I couldn’t tell
yes..i think they showed it..
WE RIOT IF THEY KILL OF FUJI.
Did the landslide destroy toranagas army?
I had read that this Series and the Characters are based and inspired by the Original History of Japan, Toranaga here is clearly inspired by Tokugawa Ieyasu...did he (Ieyasu) really nearly died in a Earthquake?
Grabbing his sword no fighting this one haha
1:43 For the thumbnail
How does one create an earthquake??
The fk are those weird ass grunts by blackthorne as hes goin down i thought i was watching an anime
I'm actually curious as to just how many people in the world have died to earthquakes over the years 🤔

This was crazy 🤪
