The TV show they were talking about was called "水戸黄門- Mito Koumon" which started in late 1960"s. Actor Eijiro Tono made the character really popular with his awesome laugh.
Just for some clarification..... Mito/Tokugawa Mitsukuni was not the second Tokugawa shogun. The second Tokugawa shogun was Tokugawa Hidetada. Mito/Tokugawa Mitsukuni was the second daimyo of the Mito domain. He was a cousin of the third Tokugawa shogun, Tokugawa Iemitsu. The Mito branch of the Tokugawa was one of the branches eligible for the title of shogun, but Mitsukuni himself was never shogun. I enjoyed the video. It looks like an interesting and fun place to go. When I was living in Japan, I enjoyed going to museums.
a television series "SHOGUN" aired many years ago in the US. The series was a hit...one of my favorite! I even learned many Japanese words and phrases but long forgotten. Thanks again!
AMAZING , THANK YOU FOR THIS , I LOVE HISTORY , LOVE LEARNING SOMETHING NEW AND OLD, THIS IS AN AWESOME VIDEO , THANK YOU AND JENNIFER FOR SHARING , LOVE AND PRAYERS
I like Meiji era. Restoration and Opening the Country to the other cultures as well as new way of life. History is fascinating. Without old there is no new.
We have seen Amazing art from that Battle here in U. S. A. Well preserved. Jennifer is knowledgeable about the History of that time. That is correct Nobunaga & Tokugawa Shoguns.
If I spent more than half a day at the Hiroshima Peace memorial museum, I can't help wondering how much longer I'd have spent at this Tokugawa Museum. That's where the heart of the Japan Unification lies. Sad that places like these are not pushed as a tourist destination, especially for history buffs, and it's but a short ride from Tokyo. Thanks for bringing us here, John and Jennifer.
John, How do I get to mito with JR pass? I got this free JR pass for 7 days, Can I go with shinkansen? Or just express train? From which station? How long do you need to walk from the station to the museum? Please answer:)
+Najiyya Hafiyati a lot of questions! Did you try google maps? It not only tells you the trains, but the cost and distance! You can pick the location of origin. You have to take the JR HITCHI EXPRESS from UENO STATION or ride the usual JOBAN LINE to get to Mito. You can use the JR RAIL PASS. It’s a 30 walk through the park from the station. The map is in the description.
Hi greetings to you and and to all those that is dear to you Greetings from from Mauritius Yes I have a bronze statue weighting about 8kgs it is a Shogun its name is minamoto no yoritomo it is the first Shogun of the Kamakura shogunate it date is about year 1191to 1199 please tell what I can do with this piece of Japan historical antique
Fun stuff, but a couple of things that bug me: first, Mitsukuni was never Shogun, second why keep interrupting your co-presenter. Her opinions are well worth hearing.
There’s a live stream of rapid comments and I have to balance what you see with what you don’t. I do the best I can. There’s no English in the museum so we have to do the best we can on the spot, but not making the video does not get people to learn more about the background of Japan or think about coming here. Thanks.
❤️ 💕 Thank you Jennifer and John! It's almost like I am visiting with you! Thank you for taking everyone with you! Kannsya!❤️ 💕

They didn’t read the sign there saying “The second lord of Mito , Grandson of Tokugawa Ieyasu” :v
The one they called Yorifusa was the father of Mitsukuni :v, Yorifusa was the son of Ieyasu
Deep deep deep.. lol
Awesome museum. Thank you for showing us all!

ONLY in JAPAN * GO Thank u so muchhh for answering me:) Have a good day, John! Im sorry for asking u a lot of questions though
nice stream!
Em que cidade fica esse museu?
Late comment- you & Jennifer tandem is the right cocktail for a delicious drink. Any other combination won’t work
Tokugawa Shoguns ruled Japan 1603-1867 Samurai 940-1877 Daimyo 1467-1871 Shogun 1192-1867
what happened to the tea ceremony video? went to watch it and said it was not there
Very informative.
No mention of "Suke-san" "Kaku-san"?(Two vassals of Mito-Koumon accmpanied everywhere he went).
Maybe they are fictional characters.
Hi greetings to you and and to all those that is dear to you

The 3 famous person in japanese history: Tokugawa Ieyasu, Toyotomi Hideyoshi, Oda Nobunaga

I wanna see Kenshi's sword :D
( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°)
You mean Kenshin as in Rurouni Kenshin? The sakabato? 😁 I'd like to see it too if it was real 😁🗡
so Where is the samurai armor? Some sword without tilt.
Lol I still remember it's tamahagane.
YES!! TAMAHAGANE STEEL!!! From the Seki city knife episode!! Thank you Jerry!
Damascus steel. :-)
9:27
Damascus steel is the process for making Japanese swords and modern knives.
"happy to see me" lmaoooo
Is Jennifer Japanese and French?
BINGO!
I absolutely enjoy every one of your videos. However, the live stream videos look terrible on PC.
I hope they don't serve Donald T. from those cups.
I'm not sure, but I don't think he would appreciate it..
Sorry for going political.
