Nobunaga the Fool Episode 22 Discussion

jfs said:


Waseda Uni in shinjuku, Ive been to kyoto, but only to visit castles lol....

Anyway, rather than continue discussing pointless historical stuff, cant people get back to the episode?

I notice nobody has mentioned Himikos MASSIVE death flag from the preview for next ep, and the possibility of saru x himiko

Also who wouldve thought that shakespere line 'et tu brute' (though the literal translation just says you too, brutus?)

Who wouldve guessed it would be alexander and not caesar who used that line

BaiHu27 said:


It would seem that she will die next episode. But I wonder why they decided to have Alexander use that line. It seemed out of place for me.

jfs said:

That said it does seem totally random.. the context of which the line was used , (in shakespere caesar said it when he was betrayed) but now a different person said it in a completely different situation idk what to make of that, i guess they think they are being creative..

Would himiko die so easily? they referenced needing 4 people from the east- jeanne himiko nobunga and saru , or maybe kenshin might take her place? he still has a regalia after all and if im not wrong they will need all the regalias to summon the grail

Bodomschild said:
I know that part was about Mitsu. I guess it looks to me like she won't forget him an dwill always have a place in her heart. She says stuff like she wishes she can go back and tell him her feelings etc etc. Thats why to me it feels like she still has/had feelings for him. In the last moments of her life like you said she chose Caesar though.

Himiko has a 99% of dying next episode nuff said. That et tu Brute? was pretty random lol...

BaiHu27 said:

Well if she dies, it would hinder Arthur's attempts. Can Kenshin take her place though? He can't wield a regalia like the others, and its unlikely that he will suddenly gain the ability to use one, unless we take his meeting with the dragon into account.

jfs said:

In ep 19, when they headed off to the trial, everyone took out their regalias, kenshin had one of his own, so if they need all regalias, he would need to be there, and remember in ep 14 when kenshin appears, da vinci said 'he should be invited to the banquet' , which clearly refers to the last supper and the 12 people (disciples of jesus/savior king or whatever) meeting so who knows

I barely noticed this but..

My inner shipper squealed when I saw this.

Bodomschild said:
Probably, but I would think the last supper would have the chosen 12. Ichi and Caesar aren't one of the chosen. Whatever it is it's nice to see Da Vinci ships them lol..

SKYflare said:
not a suprise to mitsuhides betrayal since the death of ichi. the thing that bugged me was that he said nobu didnt save her in time when nobu did most the work along with caesar and mitsu just stood on the sidelines whining.

mitsus ending is not gonna be pleasant.

keen to know whats going to happen next episode and hope that himiko doesnt die (fingers crossed) its apparent saru has feelings for himiko but she is faithful to her unrequited love for nobu.

Bodomschild said:
Honn�-ji it's coming. I guess it was too much for a Caesar/Ichi funeral scene. My guess is they needed Caesar's body for the perfecta. I'm surprised they didn't have a scene where Mitsu buried the comb. That Brutus was pretty random lol... Mitsu I want to like you but I can't seriously, they made him into a character that you really can't root for.

NiteBloomingRose said:


If they needed Caesar's body then why was Charlemagne there? Didn't he blow himself up? Maybe because he got out from Arthur's spell? I don't know, it's a mystery that may never be explained. XD

And Alexander totally stole Caesar's line. XD So random!

jfs said:


Well i think they just dont want to ruin Ichi and Caesars death scene which obviously should be left alone and made brutus take his place, its plot induced

I doubt its a time problem, since one of the twins was there....

Alexander getting pissed at cesare for offing his rival? was kinda nice

zunderdog24 said:
Is it just me or is anyone else getting slightly annoyed with how everyone is calling nobu the destroyer king even though most of the destruction is because of alexander, also a bit angry at how mitsuhide blames nobu for ichihimes death while walking next to cesare, the guy who literally killed her.... i might just hate mitsuhide.

Esheraz said:
Oh no, Mitsu turned...

jfs said:
Nobu is not Tetsuya, he cant save 2 people who were ambushed so suddenly, if anything he noticed the danger before anyone else

jfs said:
I cant imagine Kenshin being gone forever, with Mitsu now going traitor and the East side clearly underpowered, They will probably need his strength soon,.. he will probably make a dramatic entrance to crash the party at some point

Meritas said:
Kenshin will come back.

Meritas said:
I was eager to see the episode just to see another confrontation of Baihu and jfs, lol.

Lol, Mitsu didn't even see Ichihime instead of his father, I guess he really was more important to him in the end than her. I really expect nothing more from him than to keep on failing.

At least the East can take a break from Mitsu's shit .Da Vinci probably sent him as a Trojan Horse to the West, they're at a serious disadvantage now. I don't get the strategist hype on him. He can't see the West is to blame for Ichi's death, neither what happened with Caesar when he met Artuhur. Mitsu's only feat is organizing a party for Nobu.

Meritas said:

Fixed.

Meritas said:
Kenshin will come back.

Arthur can change his/her appearance to brainwash any person s/he met. I got worried with the development that Gonzo might rush the ending. Only 2 episode left with the next episode focuses on Himiko. Unless S2 is coming, I don't now how the producer gonna cramp the battle for last ep.

SevenSabers said:


Valvrave did a "pretty" good job by craming their last episode so...
