why not, because you believe stupid pol memes about how japs are all redpilled and honorary aryans?
Yeah, no. The reason they seem racist is because they are highly xenophobic and have little contact with people of other races, it's not because they intrinsically hate the color of their skin. Japanese people think blacks are really strange, they don't *hate* them. Plus as many anons have said, Yasuke was a real person, stupid memes aside.

As has been posted several times today, more blacks go to the theater than whites in recent years.

You voted with your wallet and now hollywood is going to pander to the people that actually pay money to see movies rather than kids that think they're cool because they figured out how to torrent.

Overall though, this sounds like a cool movie concept, but I'm sure it wont be anywhere near as good as The Last Samurai.
>>
I doubt Japan is going to make this movie, for starters they don't have black actors that speak Japanese well

And if it's make by USA, I doubt it will be better than The Last Samurai, that movie was pretty based
>>
>>81067599
The story of WA would actually make a better, more interesting film. Half of it could be his ill-fated journey to Japan, losing the majority of the men accompanying him, etc. The other half could be him dealing with the Japs and -- who was it -- the Portuguese? Trying to screw him.

Samurai were not specifically a title bestowed upon individuals, they were a caste.
Samurai were a warrior servant caste who, in later years managed to gain respect and land, as members of their families became warlords.
Samurai were basically the feudal japan equivalent to a militia.

If you were a servant to a lord, and could fight, you were basically a samurai.

But since samurai had specific laws and rules, only specific families were "samurai"

Hence why the black guy was made into a samurai.

It was a step up from where he was, but it was far from the equivalent of a knight.

>black dude shows up in Japan
>Nobunaga supposedly makes him strip and wash himself because he thinks Yasuke has charcoal or some shit all over him

>Nobunaga takes him on as a "samurai"
>Nobunaga literally immediately loses so bad he has to seppuku
>new guy tells Yasuke to fuck off and go live with the Jesuits

Yep, a real inspirational story. He was a giant compared to the Japanese, and Nobunaga kept him around basically as a sideshow.

You could definitely make a cool movie about the premise, but it's hardly some amazing "forgotten tale." I also like the wording of "first black samurai" as if there were more after him lol

to be fair, nearly EVERY decision Nobunaga ever made was about psychological manipulation of his enemies. And a 6 ft tall strong black man would be terrifying to feudal japan.

>>
>>81067625
Yeah. When the coup found place he first fought besides Nobunaga, but after that went to shit he ran to fight besides Nobunaga's son, and when that too went to shit he surrendered.
Since he was black and not Japanese they didn't want to kill him and handed him back.

The key to the story is that he's NOBUNAGA'S bodyguard.
His story isn't the interesting one.
It's that his perspective on the story happening around him that's interesting.

So why is he the protag if the story isn't even about him? The only reason they are adapting Nobunaga's story is because there was a black guy involved. If there were no blacks involved, they wouldn't have made a film. How can you possibly say that Hollywood doesn't worship niggers?

The American ethnicity are the original WASPs who founded the country, and to a larger extent the white Americans who assimilated later on. They are the Americans.

Man, I can't wait for the movie to tell us that Yasuke basically taught the samurai how to fight, and how they were all weak and pitiful until he came along and showed them the power of hip hop and overcame slavery single handedly, but had to be banished to Japan because white men felt threatened.

dude, it's easier if you explain it this way
A unique "american" ethnicity came about by having a mix of german, english, dutch, and later the eastern native american tribes. The population spreads from the carolinas over to arkansas and north texas.

The term may be inaccurate and outdated, but it refers to a specific type of "white people" that are rather unique to america.

>>81068807
It is barely any longer than the English one. Just like the English version a lot of the text is about how Nobunaga and other Japanese people viewed him and blacks in general, and not about what he actually did. The main thing the Japanese version elaborates on is theories about what happened to him after he surrendered, which is pretty much just speculation.

>>81067907

They would probably have some white people at the start of the movie bringing him to Japan as a slave.

One tidbit of post-surrender history that always sticks with me is the account of 3 black US soldiers raping some Japanese women, so the villagers kill them and hide their bodies worrying that the US military would find out.

Nowadays they would just protest. Back then, people solved their problems by themselves.Usually that meant killing black people, but oh well.
