You can check out this week's recap of SHOGUN episode 7 "A Stick of Time" on the Pay Me No Mind YouTube channel, or you can listen to the audio-only version, if necessary. This week's episode was a bit slow on the over-arching storyline - the impending Ishido & The Council of Regents-Toranaga showdown - but we have our first death of a major character. The biggest headline this week on SHOGUN was how we all wrestle with our perception of our FATE. Are you a fighter, brawler, puncher, boxer-puncher or counter-puncher? Toranaga has been on his Floyd Mayweather ish for weeks now, downloading information on his chief rival Lord Ishido, and with the failed attempt of wooing his half-brother Saeki onto his side, Toranaga seems like he's really up against it.
