| An interesting development but probably too little to late |
| I really don't have faith in that Young Shogun he just seems a bit useless. |
| There is too much talking in this show....and just the shogun appears out of nowhere. |
 |
| once again it was not bad but ah,i wanted more even the music doesn't bring enough emotions for me... |

| Damn the Shogun is younger than I thought |
 |
| Nio's treasure continues with meeting a young man needing few cups of water, and he's a pretty spoiled brat at that. But it's not until the entrance of an assassin wanting to swing a sword in the restaurant, that has the 3 children stopping him all at once before he wrecks the place apart, revealing the young man's name of Kikuchiyo. The strong, burly hitman who wants him dead, with the Miburo attending affairs thereafter to know that Kikuchiyo, is the Shogun of Tokugawa Iemochi...but not quite exact, under the alias of Seii Taishogun. Escorting him back to Nijo Castle is a tall order, even for the Miburo knowing they have a group of 7 assassins chasing their tail. Despite Nio's grandmother's qualms about him, she did indeed teach him a valuable lesson to act the part of the Lord. With Nio's plan to diverge the current Miburo forces and leave Iemochi with him, not even he could analyze the same assassin coming back for his sword, and taunting the both of them with a hunt. The Shogun who wanted to live life outside of his jurisdiction, on top of the current issues of foreigners invading the land and slwoly destroying the life they've worked so hard to build, the indecisive, powerless side of him as it is, Kikuchiyo still wants to see it come to past. The Miburo will protect the Shogun, power or powerless as he is. |

| The young Shogun is being hunted by pro-Imperial swordsmen. The people at the castle wouldn't let him go and he finds out the consequences of carelessly causing trouble for commoners (which Nio's grandma scolds him for, she'd tell off even the emperor). The Miburo send two decoys but the tall swordsman from earlier finds the real Shogun with Nio. The shogun's speech about not being able to keep out foreigners like his followers say he will is harsher in hindsight as "his" faction ultimately lost in real life. He was right about the two ideologies not being mutually exclusive. |

| Shogun ka yooooooo!!!! sry, I had to do this xD |
| Assassins after our young shogun, well that's not good. Nio and the Miburo that are present right now will have to protect themselves and to make sure that Shogun remains unharmed. |
