  1. If Hollywood wasn’t such a woke shit show this would be an amazing series to watch! But instead they’d rather make up bs then enjoy true history

  2. There were never any black samurai. Yasuke was a koshō or sword bearer. He served on Oda's court for somewhere around 18 months. He was mentioned in fighting in only 2 battles and both were losses. In first one, Honnō-ji Incident. The second, the battle of Akechi forces. In the first one, he abandoned Nobunaga and in the second, he gave up his sword and returned to European monastery right after.
    He was following Oda Nobunaga in inspection after the battle of Tenmokuzan but there is no evidence that he took part of it. Oda Nobunaga didn't even fight in this battle, his army was led by his son, Oda Nobutada. Yasuke was the servant of Oda Nobunaga.
    Yasuke returned to the monastery after Oda Nobunaga was killed and he was never mentioned again. Its very likely he returned to Africa.

    Now, Englishman William Adams, known as "Miura Anjin", was made Hatamoto and true Samurai. He served the great Tokugawa Ieyasu, and helped him defeat the Council of Regents and rule Japan.

    Tokugawa became Shogun of Japan's final Shogunate ever. Formed in 1603, dissolved with the Meiji Restoration in the 1860s.

    Yasuke is nothing compared to Adams.
