Well... It is ANIME, if they wanted to go historical, the movie with Chadwick Boseman would've been shot if Chadwick didn't sadly pass away. I believe he was in pre production already for the film, EDIT: WAS looking forward to it. RIP
It actually is historically accurate because if you watch the show it explains his life years previously from a servant to a samurai until him and his master were invaded by enemies. If you read about yasuke you’ll realize nobody is exactly sure what happened to yasuke during this battle or if he was alive or not. Basically after that battle there is nothing to base yasuke off of. So it was historically accurate about his life in that sense.
Like that line completely ruined the premise of the show.. Why is being “black” special or unique to this character when there are giant robots and OP magic.. the context behind Yasuke’s importance as a character is diminished
@@draco_1876 and what about mechs, wizards and Russian wherewolves? It’s lazy/dumb to introduce a universe which is both historically accurate and heavily influenced in fantasy.
If they get surprised by him speaking Japanese, then what language were all of them speaking before this?! English? How do a bunch of rural Japanese villagers speak fluent English?!
@@YeImWafflezz Yes but they were already talking before that point at which he switched to Japanese, so they had to have been talking in some other language before that.
So let me get this straight, they took the story of Yasuke ,who is a real-life, historical figure and turned into a generic fantasy/sci-fi story. Complete with superpowers, demons and friggin' mechas! They could have make a historical drama, out of Yasuke's story, similar to the ''Shogun'' mini-series from the 80's with Richard Chamberlain, which is inspired on the real-life story of english navigator William Adams who ended up in service of the Shogun. You know, with political intrigues & battles & some drama etc. Or maybe do something similar to ''Samurai Champloo''. Nah, let's take this real-life, historical character and have him fight mechas in 16th century feudal Japan!!
Yep, they did, now get the fuck over it. Your expectations do not set the standard. Fantasy is fucking awesome and I'm glad they took creative liberty. It was enjoyable. If you didn't enjoy it, I'd bet it's because you came in with expectations -- which you should NEVER do. That's your own toxic trait, not the fault of the writers.
Dude if you don’t like it make your own. Quit comparing and take it at face value. No one said that it was gonna be exactly like the “actual historical character” you are basically saying if it had a different name too it then it would be good. If it didn’t have the name yasuke plastered on it you’d be sucking it’s toes like stfu
@@taywrdd they could have made a seriers about the real yasuke not shits with super powers and robots in the 16th century .What a waste.That was so unncesesary.
Hell they see him in one game and suddenly they’re all experts ignoring the chronicles of oda nobunga and jesuits reports to discredit him being a samurai
I was kind of hoping for a more grounded series, but I guess I’ll still give it a try despite the weird anime power stuff. Personally would’ve rather seen them stick to sword fighting as opposed to lasers and stuff.
i was taking a preview of this anime just looking at scenes to decide if i should watch it and after realizing it’s based off of real history, you can imagine my surprise as 10 seconds after finding that out, i see yasuke having a whole ass fight with a robot. shit’s wild.
I wouldn't mind fantastical elements like demons, magic, and shit in a historical anime. What I am kind of bummed out about is we could've had something similar to Rurouni Kenshin.
"He's black...?" Was not expecting that. idk if I wanna watch this now lf that's gonna be a main focal point in a fantasy show. Like bruh there's a talking robot and a wizard guy how is it possible that these guys think that the black dude is the strange one here lol.
It's barely ever addressed that he is black LOL the other characters in the show don't even care about his skin color, if anything they are more interested in his relationships, involvement and skill
@@ducasse8473 niggas just couldn’t grasp that black people existed back then lmao it’s not that serious. I imagine the real Yasuke went through this shit as well
I was expecting to see some dope ass champloo shit and that it all got ruined when I saw the robot fly in. I honestly think Netflix has to ruin every idea that they touch.
Seriously how are there robots in this world? Wouldn’t them being there defeat the purpose of of having warriors with swords? shouldn’t other soldiers have guns or some other technological weapon? Who made the robots? You see how many questions this raised by having them here?
Finally robots appeared in the ancient Japan😂 It’s a little funny However it is good cuz many great people in the ancient such as napoleon,Nobunaga, Xing and Akutagawa are portrayed as a cat cute femboy in japan now😂
Finished off the whole season. And still can't Fathom why alota people fuckin hate this amazing anime. Love how its Sci-fi Fantasy, something like "The Ice Pirates" movie. This anime is like Firefly. Everyone shits on it because it's "Popular and hip" then a month after it is canceled people are gonna be begging a new season.
Probably because most people thought that it was gonna be low fantasy or realistic with exaggerated fight scenes. People where interested because they thought that at thing saying it was about the life of the Black samurai would be about that instead of Mongol mechs, werepeople, and Shamans with stands.
The dialogue exchange in this scene was really bad. I guess my hopes were too high for this anime because what we got was a mediocre story with great animation and a non specific genre.
“The black man spoke japanese?”
- A Robot
LMAO You got me 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
“Yes I spoke Japanese!“
🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣

What the fuck, I never expected to have robots amd magic in this.

Yasuke looked best with his hair long and Nikita looked good in every scene.

"The black man speaked japanese"

This reminds me of when a game at e3 was being showing battles that actually took place in ancient japan, then a giant crab show up.
Give us the name of the game, don’t be shy :)
Probably Nioh 2
Genji
The way the music stop and proceed again lol

Nah that mech got me crying bro that caught me off guard 😭😭😭
Say what you will,the fights are good as hell.
The Benin man just assumed yasuke lived good and it pissed him off
Am i the only one who would prefer a realistic series about the actual life of Yasuke ??
No, but most likely we’ll never get another series based on yasuke, so we just gonna appreciate what we have.

The name of the song is Taiko Time/Sacrifice - Flying Lotus.
At the beginning ?
What about the first beat?
At the fight scene...
@@RR-zw1xd honestly… it set the whole mood for this fight and it goes hard
@@BSCaprini do u know the name of the song at the beginning?
I loved this anime and actually thought it was a good story. I know that’s an unpopular opinion.
Same here! If people just appreciate it on its own rather than what they want it to be, I think it’s pretty good
According to Rotten Tomatoes, 91% of people agree with you.
@@sebastiansanchez6308 because people thought it was going to be about the real life yasuke

Do you know how it's called?
name of it?
@@DraftyRum im sad no one still knows the instrumental 🤧
@@notjalxn the song is called drug trade by smoke DZA and flying lotus
couldnt find this anywhere u the goat fr
the beginning was hype as f@#$ i don't know people say bad , but for me it's actually a good anime
Because they thought it was going to be about the real life yasuke but little is known about him after nobunaga died so they went with something else
This man animes never make any sense but they are a guilty pleasure
I wish it wouldve turned out like the manga vagabond where they didnt have much to work with miyamoto musashi but still kept it grounded in reality
I love this damn anime!
I wouldn't mind fantastical elements like demons, magic, and shit in a historical anime. What I am kind of bummed out about is we could've had something similar to Rurouni Kenshin.
i hope ichika didn’t die bc at 2:16, her and yasuke looked like the most badass duo😔

Not enough ppl are here to explain the first instrumental
What's the name
smoke dza & flying lotus - drug trade (feat. black thought)
Reminds me a lot of Samurai Jack.
Samurai Black
His voice actor is also black.
it reminds me of samurai champloo and vinland saga

am i the only one that thought the show was actually pretty good??😭
Nope, I'm with you too.
I liked it alot ost animation and the voice actor for yasuke was great Yee the mech was overkill but whatever I'm happy I got a yasuke anime
I felt that it's good but I definitely went in thinking it would be more grounded and not have giant robots and magic.
@@Wayra_ i agree, when i saw the robot, i was like “what??? why??” but i kinda got over it but i still question it

*mecha appears in sengoku jidai*
I've never dropped something so fast
Cool fight scene
somebody i need to know the beat playing in the beggining its amazing
flying lotus
The Spear and Rope as a weapon, very nice touch
broooo it's been one whole year, what's the beat playing in the beggining????
People are crying about historical accuracy because “He’s black” but where the fuck did the robot come from
It took me 3 years to find the song at the start of the scene, it’s called Drug Trade by Flying Lotus to anyone that is still searching
the animation is very good here.
Wow, Samurai Jack would get along great with this dude.
I was expecting a sword fight not the mech lmao
This anime was actually really good I loved the soundtrack,animations,sound effects just an amazing anime expect I saw it in sub
Robots and magic eh? What's next, giant enemy crabs?
In the next episode, Hitler and Napoleon with cat ears will appear in the ancient Japan😂
It's incredible to know that all of this really happened.
Yasuke: This has been the weirdest day.
Seriously how are there robots in this world? Wouldn’t them being there defeat the purpose of of having warriors with swords? shouldn’t other soldiers have guns or some other technological weapon? Who made the robots? You see how many questions this raised by having them here?
Primarily its anime bask in how cool it is, Goku shoots lasers come on man. Second Yasuke can cut through whole trees and you draw the line at robots?
@@dashbry You understand nothing of world building.
@@benjaminroseman1794 nice criticism.
I'm still here wondering if we gonna findout name of song in very beginning of this vid
" THE BLACK MAN SPOKE JAPANESE ? "
*ROBOT*
1:15 I would've led with the pointy part first but ok
Anyone know the name of the first song that was playing. The beat from the first few secs
Finally robots appeared in the ancient Japan😂
It’s a little funny
However it is good cuz many great people in the ancient such as napoleon,Nobunaga, Xing and Akutagawa are portrayed as a cat cute femboy in japan now😂
When your mom says we have Afro Samurai at home,
So the robot thinks them 2 are related oh my lord that's hilarious 😂😂😂😂😂😂
Amazing
Anyone find out what the song at the beginning is?
The animation and theme is good, but.. yeaa you know.
Da f*** is this
This must have been authentic
mann the robot always ruins the whole story
Anime perferct
The anime overall was just too messy and really bad tbh but you gotta admit this fight scene was the best
Yasuke badass
"He is black"
~a robot
I wanna know the name of the music
I thought this historical and sci-fi at first. Any way...
anyone know the theme that stretches from 0:01 to 0:19?
i also would like to know. its not in the OST
right i wanted to know it too
*writes comment for future reply*
1yr later and no one still knows 😭. that beat was hard as hell
3 years later still no one knows
If anyone knows where i can find the music if its possible at the beginning
