Storyline
Did you know
- Crazy creditsThe opening credit sequence is a modified version of a zen garden. This style of garden is often referred to as karesansui, which means "not using water."The two main elements of a Zen or karesansui (pronounced "kah-ray-sahn-soo-ee") garden are rocks to represent mountains (or islands) and sand to represent water. The sand used in Zen gardens is not beach sand; it is actually crushed or decomposed granite, small pebbles, or fine gravel. The particles of crushed granite are angular rather than round, so they can be more easily raked into patterns. Moreover, ripples in the sand or gravel represent flowing water or ripples in the ocean.
Featured review
Incredible drama!
This was an absolutely amazing episode from beginning to end! It is clear that the end is near as the intensity grows and the consequences are felt!
This seems like the Turning point for Blackthorne as he now has to descide, which cause he picks! Who will he side with?
There is a theme of loyalty in this episode, as the characters almost have to descide what is more important.. loyalty or their faith?
Toranaga was however the best character in this episode! His scenes were incredible and I saw a whole new side of him! He has always been a bit mysterious and I now feel he is about to reveal his true intentions!
The scene near the end with him was the most dramatic and intense! I felt like he stared at my soul!
All the qctors did a PHENOMENAL JOB!!
