Yeah, Toranga has been shown as honorable but man is on some major scheming.

Not sure Ruri’s hatred of him isn’t unwarranted.

The way he held the truth about Mariko’s father’s plan on wedding her to keep her from facing the consequences as motivation was devious.

We know Mariko is a skilled fighter so he’s basically got an assassin going at the Queen in disguise of an old friend.

Mariko is gorgeous. Striking beauty :francis:
She is but I'm more of a Fuji man myself.

Also, did you notice near the end, Toranaga was reading a SECRET NOTE from someone, before he spoke to Mariko? I wonder who that was from :jbhmm: And why did he want Mariko with the Anjin in the whorehouse? He said to see if he pillow talks? But that didn't make sense, especially since Mariko didn't follow Anjin when he left with the escort in the next room, alone.

Is Toranaga testing Mariko? And do we really think Anjin hooked up with the escort?

‘I thought he was doing it as a punishment to make her jealous for falling for the barbarian (no negs..lol)…. So he knew she would get jealous if she had to watch.. punishment for making her husband whip her ass after he snitched on her being so in love with the barbarian… lol
