The Big Picture John Blackthorne has never been in control, but in the promo for Episode 7 of Shōgun, he is in even more dire straits. Since the English navigator first washed up on the shores of Japan, he has been at the mercy of Lord Toranaga and a culture he doesn’t understand. He fails to endear himself to the samurai, notably Mariko’s husband, Toda–Buntaro , or to his friends. In the new trailer for the upcoming episode, it goes without saying that Blackthorne is not his friend.
Meanwhile, Toranaga faces mounting pressure about what to do with the Council of Regents, who want him dead. Toranaga is a man of honor, and while he agrees to conduct the act of Crimson Sky, he understands the ways of war. Not everyone will make it out of this conflict. That was the reason he was so hesitant to declare war in the first place. But war is upon them, and there is no choice but to surge ahead into battle in the episodes to come.
To avoid any ramifications, Mariko has forbidden any further romantic interaction between her and Blackthorne. The interpreter faces many threats, but even so, it hasn’t stopped her from yearning for her former paramour, especially after his liaison with Lady Kiku . Buntaro has already vocalized dissent in his marriage, and sensing that his wife is warming towards another man – let alone an Englishman – is certain to inspire fiery passions.
