SCREENRANT VIDEO OF THE DAY SCROLL TO CONTINUE WITH CONTENT Summary Shōgun episode 10 masterfully concluded the show and wrapped up the stories of all main characters, raising the question of whether Yoshii Toranaga became shōgun following his victory against Ishido. The critically acclaimed FX series was based on James Clavell’s Shōgun novel, which itself was inspired by the true story of Tokugawa Ieyasu.

Considering James Clavell’s Shōgun novel is based on the origins of Tokugawa Ieyasu's shōgunate, it can be assumed that Lord Toranaga’s story concludes similarly to that of his real-life counterpart. How Toranaga Won The War Against Ishido In Shōgun’s Finale Ochiba-no-kata’s support won Toranaga the war Lady Mariko’s death in Shōgun episode 9 helped Lord Toranaga in many ways. Firstly, it brought instability into the Osaka Castle and disrupted Ishido’s power now that the daimyos realized he was keeping hostages. Without the support of some of the most powerful lords in the region, plus the inner conflicts within the Council of Regents, Ishido became much weaker after Mariko’s sacrifice.

Who Burned John Blackthorne’s Ship In Shōgun’s Finale Blackthorne survived but did not return home Lord Toranaga had John Blackthorne’s ship burned at the end of Shōgun. While Toranaga made it seem like a traitor in Ajiro was responsible for it, the Lord of Kanto secretly acted so that Blackthorne would never leave Japan. The destruction of Blacthorne’s ship was also part of a deal Mariko worked with the Portuguese in exchange for the Anjin’s life.

John Blackthorne’s Visions Of The Future Explained Blackthorne’s “dream of a dream” will not come true Shōgun episode 10 opened with an elder John Blackthorne lying down on his bed as his grandchildren talked about the sword he has up on his wall. The children talked about their grandfather’s feat against “savages” in a major battle in what appeared to be a flashforward set decades after the events of Shōgun.
