I'm surprised that there are still old-fashioned Westerners who still misunderstand that Japan's modernization began with the Meiji Restoration.
Even during the period of nation's isolation, the Edo shogunate was enough sensitive to overseas situations, and at the time of Perry's visit, it had already begun seeking support for modernization from multiple European countries.
The latest research has revealed that the success of the Meiji Restoration in Satsuma and Choshu was due to British strategy. But even if Satsuma and Choshu had been defeated, Japan was forced to modernize.

ishido real hero in the story. and their allies are legendary. At the battle of Sekigahara, the shimazu clan was so feared that instead of surrendering, they attacked forward with the remaining soldiers and managed to kill a son and general of ieyasu.
Otani Yoshitsugu, a leper man that joined western army knowing full well that they couldn’t win, just because out of the entire Japan, only Mitsunari gave him respect and does not shun him for his leprosy.
Konishi Yukinaga, a christian of merchant descent, the lowest of lowest in sengoku pecking order, gave his life to repay Mitsunari’s respect of his belief.
Shima Sakon AKA “the oni”, charged straight into the enemy and die fighting, he could’ve escape or surrender, but he prefer Mitsunari’s friendship than Ieyasu’s forgiveness.
Gamō Yorisato Charged into massive easter army’s force even after Sakon was killed, and push them back again and again until been overwhelmed.
Haratsuka Tamehiro, hold 10, 000+ of eastern army’s forces at bay with 360 men.
Takashi Yutaka, gave his life carried Otani’s head away from the battlefied, just so that his lord’s leper stricken face won’t be laughed at.

Mitsunari's treatment after capture and torture illustrates why samurai lords committed sepuku rather than being captured.

Fun fact: The young Hiroyuki Sanada once played Ishida Mitsunari character in 90's Taiga Drama, Hideyoshi. He was portrayed as an ambitious guy in that TV series who will do all dirty works for Hideyoshi (Taiko) and had a thing for Chacha (Ochiba).

Ishida Mitsunari's punishment should have been "beheading.'' This is because Tokugawa Ieyasu had not yet become a shogun in 1600 (he became a shogun in 1603) and was in the position of a vassal of the Toyotomi family. In other words, since the highest ranking vassal punishes the same vassal, it cannot be a special heavy punishment. If he did that, he would have aggravated the resentment of the people who were Ishida's territory, and some of the feudal lords who had sided with him would have secretly sympathized with Ishida, it will have a negative impact on his assumption of ruling power.

[saaccitt]

If the drama were created from Mitsunari Ishida's point of view based on historical facts, it would end up being as emotional as SHOGUN, albeit a sad one.
There is a line in the play in which he looks down on farmers, but Taiko Hideyoshi, whom he served, and Mitsunari himself were also farmers.
His episodes with Yoshitsugu Otani and Sakon Shima give us a glimpse of his sincere humanity.

I want to see the Sengoku period in Japan, where the novel “Shogun” ends.
The epic scale Battle of Sekigahara was fought between 70, 000 Toranaga (Tokugawa Ieyasu) army and 80, 000 Ishido army (Ishida Mitsunari), totaling 150, 000 samurai.
The battle between Ochiba no Kata, his son, and Toranaga's ``Winter Siege'' and ``Summer Siege'' takes place at Osaka Castle during the internal conflict that occurs after Toranaga unifies the country.
Japanese history is interesting from where the Shogun's novel ends.
They should definitely make a season 2.

Ishida was one of the most complicated characters in history. He alone was trying to defy the law of rule-by-might. A Flavius Aetius of Japan.

- He almost certainly tried to oust Tokugawa out of loyalty to Taigo, who was like a father to him. I.e., his motive was not to gain power for himself. In this regard, his portrayal in the show was very unfair.

- However, he was liked by few and strongly hated by many.

- Would he become the dictator that always happened in history? We would never know. The best guess is that the country would be plunged into prolonged chaos and wars had the West Army won. Ishida simply did not have the strength to unify the country.

In other words, there was basically no chance for Ishida to become the dictator/absolute leader that Tokugawa did.

cool video. what software do you use for the english voiceover?

[dailyqwikbytes]

Some of this blends Shogun events with real historical events, presumably accidentally, but it's mostly good.

[jackbarnhill]

Tokugawa was not the architect of modern Japan. The Emperor Meiji was. He over-threw the Tokugawa Shogunate, which refused to modernize.

[Traptalk]

I’m so hurt Hanzo Hattori is already retired at this point he would have been an amazing addition to this cast

[dorime]

ishida was actually loyal to heir, toranaga kills the lady ochiba and heir (through seppuku)

[ReconMarine-lvkj]

Google translation to read it in English.

[twophan]

I'm more curious how Toranaga dealt with that treacherous half brother

[rickglass]

You need to check your pronunciation of Japanese names. And you need to check your grammar usage, specifically sentence structure. Otherwise, good stuff. I really enjoyed it.

[afroahmed]

Fun Fact, the battle of sakigahara introduced 16 year old Miyamoto Musashi to real samurai warfare

[Sugaranch]

I was expecting there would be white walkers after he become shogun

[youssefhaddouch]

Why in serie the name of Tokugawa is toronaga

[cesaravegah]

For a society which despised torture and deemed it a benheat of Samurai honor, only to be performed on their orders by the dregs of society they were way too good at it... nothing would had convinced me to not kill myself on the event of inminent capture by a group of those jerks.
