Anna Sawai as Mariko looking up next to Mariko looking solemn in Shogun episode 9
This article covers a developing story. Continue to check back with us as we will be adding more information as it becomes available. Warning: SPOILERS ahead for Shogun episode 9!
SCREENRANT VIDEO OF THE DAY SCROLL TO CONTINUE WITH CONTENT Summary Shōgun star Ana Sawai, who plays Mariko in the miniseries, has opened up about one key difference between the book and the show surrounding the end of episode 9. The final moments of the penultimate episode show Mariko, John Blackthorne, Kashigi, and other characters stuck in a storage shed, with ninjas outside planting bombs.
Speaking with Decider, Sawai explained why Shōgun episode 9's ending differed slightly from the books. In the books, Mariko refers to herself as a Toda, while in the show she uses her family name of Akechi. The actor explained how this change was an intentional reminder of who she is and what she was fighting for. Check out what Sawai had to say below:
If this is the way that it’s going to turn out, then she’s not going to be captured by the ninjas. There’s no way. Because that means that she’s not able to continue Toranaga’s plan. So if it means being bombed and passing and still being able to send that message, then she’s happy to do it. She’s not a Toda. She is an Akechi and she is also avenging her family at the same time. It was very intentional and it felt very powerful and I hope that people remember her as an Akechi rather than a Toda.
