Episode 2

I removed part of the description of the scene in episode 2 where Blackthorne tells to Toranaga about the secret Portuguese base in Macau. In this scene, Blackthorne does not explain any war between Japan and Korea, only that it was an uprising against Taikō years earlier. The fact that both Blackthorne and Mariko refer to "gun running (teppō no mitsuyu)" suggests that the uprising refers to an uprising within Japan. Given the historical facts, this would refer to Toyotomi Hidetsugu's alleged uprising against Taikō. In any case, explaining something that is not mentioned in the play is WP:ORIGINAL and should be removed.--SLIMHANNYA (talk) 06:35, 1 March 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Linking to the historical characters

Per WP:SURPRISE, I think that links should go where they're supposed to. Blackthorne should not be linked to Adams and Toranaga to Ieyasu in plot summaries. --SarekOfVulcan (talk) 19:21, 21 March 2024 (UTC)[reply]
