Time to rejoice! Chacha's finally pregnant. This will be Hideyoshi's first birth-child. Before this, all of his children were adopted, so basically, he was totally elated to hear the news. He had high hopes for it to be a boy, even went to the extent of preparing all boy toys. However, Chacha told him that if the baby is a boy, she has a wish to be granted. In order to celebrate his joy and prove his love for Chacha, he ordered a castle to be built where she will be giving birth. The castle, named Yodo shall be owned by Chacha, making her status as his wife, and also a Lord (for owning a castle). Which I think, was a pretty huge thing back then.
Finally, the day had come for the baby to arrive and I've always been amused by the comic relief this taiga offers every once in a while. Hideyoshi can be really hilarious in some scenes. And I like his little bickering with Gou most of the time.
However, he can also be really vicious in order to protect what's important to him. For example, there was a rumor floating around that the child wasn't his. They sort of made fun of him being a childless father for so long. When the culprit couldn't be caught, he simply executed and burnt towns to get his message through.
The middle sister, Hatsu came along to visit their newborn nephew, with her husband.
As to what Chacha wished for, Hideyoshi needed to hold a memorial service for both her parents. He agreed to give her anything she wishes. I think it's really nice of him and also Chacha to remember her parents.
I enjoyed this episode a lot basically because a new baby is born! It's always a happy thing to have a newborn xD I can't wait however to see Gou's first meeting with Lord Tokugawa's son, Hidetada (pic below). He finally appears!
