Another great episode. So many good moments - I particularly liked Mariko saying �Our every gesture is being observed� in the tea house and Blackthorne immediately doing a 360 degree turn to see where the sex noise was coming from while still walking forward.

This was a fantastic episode. The one thing that I found a bit unconvincing, though, is that Mariko could ever think that her standing in front of the explosives would do much to shield everyone else, given her size.

Mariko wanted to die and getting blown the gently caress up while a guest in Ishido's castle benefits her lord politically, so it's a win-win. I didn't get the sense that Toranaga rejected her earlier request for death because he disagreed with her reasons - it seemed more likely that he wouldn't let Ochiba's BFF die when she could still serve a purpose.

�A History of Japan� by Richard Mason gives a broad overview and covers a lot of cultural history so it isn�t just a list of battles and big names.
