At the moment Sakura is killed by the shogun, we can see in Maeve's afflicted expression that at that instant she relives her daughter's murder. Maeve observes with tenderness how Akane protects Sakura, feeling empathy for her Asian counterpart. This murder "awakens" Maeve and achieves in her the genuine human reaction that inspires William (Ed Harris) to search for that authentic element, that "reality" within the park. Her story and the purpose of her character were changed however, Maeve still remembers her little daughter running by her, holding her hand, and being brutally murdered at the hands of the Man in Black. It is this element that makes her "wake up" and that, despite her constant reprogramming, she never forgets. Mother's loveįrom the first season, we discovered that Maeve's motivation is her daughter. In Akane's case, Sakura (Kiki Sukezane) is not her biological daughter, but her protégé, whom she has raised and trained as a geisha.Īkane and Maeve are strong and intelligent women, whose determination is absolute when it comes to protecting their daughters, which brings us to the next point. By noticing the similarities between the two, a connection is created between them and they immediately feel identified by the love they have for their daughters. Their reactions are completely the opposite of those of Hector and Musashi. One, a madame in a Westworld brothel the other, Okaa-san (mother or madame) in Shogun World.
