Why would any one think anything of it? In fact aliens taking an interest in our culture is welcome so long as they're respectful and don't wewuz.

Nobody can tell I'm Asian underneath my dog-faced bascinet.

Stop fishing for approval and affirmation you faggot.

Yes, but usually as part of education demonstrations as done with the not-for-profit educational groups I am part of.

Occasionally, my gf, friends and myself will go to the little local ones for grins and giggles. We do not go for the same reason we do historic events.

>>2375425
Your point? There were Japanese envoys in Rome during the 15thC. The Italians had travel guides to China and India since the crusades, and maybe earlier.

>There were Japanese envoys in Rome during the 15thC.
You got a citation for this, and ideally the thing about travel guides to China/India as well? Could be useful for /tg/ stuff, explaining monks and all that. It always bothers me when people say they can't fit into medieval Euro settings because I'm aware of stuff like this in the abstract but don't know of many specific examples.

You should read the Travels of Sir John de Mandeville, then dress up as somebody from the lands of the Great Khan or Prester John. That would be fun as fuck.

I am on my phone, but I'll send what I got.

16th/17thC: Hasekura Rokuemon Tsunenaga, baptised "Francisco Felipe Faxicura", samurai and retainer of Date Masamune, the daimyƍ of Sendai.

If only to look at women with corsets, yes.

Otherwise I'm pissed off by all the cunts in Wizard & RPG clothing and other shit that has nothing to do with history.

Yes.

If anyone understands it will be the Renfair people.

In my town they have an "oyster fayre" every summer which is sort of like an American renaissance fair but most people don't dress up, only the people working their.

The festival is based on a festival that used to held to celebrate the oyster harvest and has now become a general medieval market with a few performances
