no it's like. it's like.......blackthorne stepping up to be mariko's second when kiyama doesn't show up. blackthorne not being a catholic, not necessarily buying what they're selling, but seeing how terrified mariko is of committing the "sin" of taking her own life. blackthorne raising a katana to strike down this woman who navigated her way into his heart – because she needs him to be the one to step up and do it, even though every bone in his body is rebelling against it. but what she needs comes first. she comes first. i'm drinking bleach.

Shogun ep 9 has me reeling with all the implications but one that struck me that I haven’t seen anyone talk about is that now John is stranded without a translator. I know he has some basic Japanese but he still seems lost in most meaningful conversations and now that Mariko has sacrificed herself, he has lost both his love and his way of communicating.
His only alternative is the Portuguese catholic priests and I imagine he would rather not be at their mercy…. I’m just curious how he’s going to survive in this world without her :( did Mariko confess to Alvito her feelings for John and will his friendship and admiration for her enable him to help John out?
Also if anyone has any ideas about the meaning of John drawing the line in the sand during Mariko’s confession scene… was he drawing a cross to pray to? Was he doing it as an act of defiance against the facade of structure and rules they are trapped in?? Im lost on that one…

Blackthorne: Look, all I'm saying is that spending a Full Action to mark a character and make yourself completely immobile for the chance of bonus damage isn't effective or engaging gameplay. I'm using a Railgun for this, right? Why would I ever spend an entire round thinking about how much damage I could be doing with it when instead I could spend that round actually firing it?
Mariko: The Anjin sees great potential in improving the Death's Head's Core System.

what’s so absurd is I really didn’t feel super strongly about the John/Mariko of it all until he volunteered to kill her
it’s like just such an insane culmination of everything between them-
like first of all, it's the fact that no one showed up for her to do her even the basic respect of being her second and so he will step up because by god has she earned HIS respect
and also obviously he loves her and doesn’t want her suffering to be prolonged and so he will do what he can to spare her as much pain as he is able, and to bear that pain for her by continuing to live after having killed her
and of course it’s him understanding her greatest relief would be him taking that final sin off her hands, delivering the killing blow himself, as he said to her he already knows hell and can handle it
but I think what really, really got me is the way all season long she’s been trying to explain to him her worldview to, her feelings on loyalty and morality and courage and the value of life and death, and he couldn’t get past the death thing, like he just cannot ever really see her views on what it means to be dead vs alive and how life can feel like endless suffering and death can feel like powerful freedom
and yet when the time came he didn’t try to stop her or rescue her or impose his views on her. instead he loved her enough to embrace death with her, to ensure her death has the meaning she choose for it and that it will be the freedom she deserves to gain. you can tell by the way he was gripping that sword, the look in his eye- he was taking every part of him that was afraid or screaming to not do it and stuffing those parts deeeeep down because he was so determined to do this for Mariko, to honor her
and it just, oh my god it got me so hard, like fully as of one episode ago I was like “I don’t really feel anything about their pairing, it’s nice and all but I’m more interested in the political intrigue” to like going fully feral and wailing as he stood over her with that sword adjusting his grip
Tumblr media
anywho- with regards to the specific way my brain has been broken to find one lover ritually murdering another to be the height of romance, I blame Tamsyn Muir

Some sweet moments in an episode filled with treachery and death:

Also, give it up for the most genki guy in Osaka. Bro is putting his life and soul into that drum like there's no tomorrow. (I know it's probably the required technique, but I choose to believe he was just really feeling it.)
