https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Yasuke
According to Histoire Ecclesiastique Des Isles Et Royaumes Du Japon, written by François Solier of the Society of Jesus in 1627, Yasuke was likely from Portuguese MozambiqueYasuke arrived in Japan in 1579 in the service of the Italian Jesuit Alessandro Valignano, who had been appointed the Visitor (inspector) of the Jesuit missions in the Indies, meaning East Africa, South and East Asia.The Lord Nobunaga Chronicle (信長公記 Shinchō Kōki) corroborates Fróis' account, and describes their meeting thus: "On the 23rd of the 2nd month [March 23, 1581], a black page (黒坊主 kuro-bōzu) came from the Christian countries. The man was healthy and good-looking with a good demeanour. Moreover, Nobunaga praised Yasuke's strength, describing it as that of ten normal men. Nobunaga's nephew gave him a sum of money at this first meeting.

>Let me tell you something that might be a bit dangerous. I was raised in Japan. I was schooled in martial arts. I was given the title of master. They take a movie “The Last Samurai.” They have a 5-foot-2-inch little guy, whether he was straight or gay, I don’t know. I don’t care. He had never been to Japan. He doesn’t speak Japanese. He has never held a sword. They make him the Last Samurai. We got 450,000 phone calls [laughs] from everybody in the world saying, “That role was perfect for you. How did that happen?” Most of the people I know didn’t like the film and didn’t go see it. It’s just a classic example of Hollywood and the politics.

I never understand this movie. I never understand race traitors like Avatar

Like, why did Tom Cruise offer the sword to the Emperor so he can find guts to fight USA?

I understand to a degree that Tom Cruise's character and Katsumoto respect each other because they are both warriors, they are both brave, they both lost faith etc. And they fought side by side to the end.

But Tom Cruise's character doesn't know the Emperor. Why did he act like he owes the emperor his life or something?

>>85294934
No, he owes Katsumoto his life.

>>85291799
Tom Cruise is a giant in Japan.

>>85294934
>I never understand this movie. I never understand race traitors like Avatar.
lol. It was established in the movie that he hated the officer in command before they even went to Japan. He wasn't a race traitor. All he did was fulfill his promise that he would eventually kill him for being an asshole. He fought for the Japanese against the Japanese, so how does race traitor even come in to it? There were only two white men on the battlefield.
>Like, why did Tom Cruise offer the sword to the Emperor so he can find guts to fight USA?
That's not what happened. He knew Katsumoto and the Emperor were close, and that Meiji was having second thoughts and regret about his death. All Tom did was give him his sword, which is symbolic in Japanese culture (something they establish early in the movie "a samurai's sword is his soul"). He told the American delegation to fuck off so that the Japanese could find their own way in the world rather than copying the west. This was in the early 1900's, and Meiji died in 1912, so there was never the intention to fight America or anyone else for that matter.
>I understand to a degree that Tom Cruise's character and Katsumoto respect each other because they are both warriors, they are both brave, they both lost faith etc. And they fought side by side to the end. But Tom Cruise's character doesn't know the Emperor. Why did he act like he owes the emperor his life or something?
Again, symbolism. He was merely puppeting Katsumoto in his interactions with the Emperor to establish how much he respected him and Katsumoto.

And actually, Tom didn't owe anyone anything. It would be more appropriate to say that Meiji owed him for showing him what it meant to be Japanese. Meiji was notorious for being west-crazy when he ruled, but often considered a great emperor for having brought Japan out of feudal society and into the modern age. It's not an accurate depiction of his life in the movie. If anything, he saved Japan from being taken over by a foreign power. They were, literally, still wearing armor and using swords by the time Meiji's reign started. The rest of the world had battleships, guns and superior army traditions.

Daily reminder that he did literally nothing wrong and that the samurai were worthless parasites on Japanese society

>>85292601
I can't believe he's appropriating their culture, what a piece of shit

>>85295066
>>85295277
Ok. But how can he extend his respect for Katsumoto to the emperor?

>>85295524
By giving him his sword

>>85295524
By giving him Katsumoto's sword, which he knew would be of value to the Emperor having been such a close friend of his. You show respect for someone by remembering who they were, what they did and what they stood for. Meiji knew little of it, so it was certainly welcomed to hear about the life of his former friend, especially since he was his teacher.

>>85295582
>>85295616
Sorry but that's not what I mean.
I mean, why did he respect the Emperor ? He respect Katsumoto but why did he respect Emperor?

>>85292707
There's another point he's missing as well, he's not a very good actor.

>>85295835
In WW2, an American ship went down off of Newfoundland. Among the survivors who washed ashore was a black man. The locals had never seen a black person before nor even knew that it was a thing.
So they brought him in with the other survivors that were covered in oil but when they tried to wash him, they found that's just how he looked all the time.
He expected to be segregated and put in a barn or something, but he was treated as well as the whites.
The locals had no idea that there was a kind of racism to deal with skin colour.

>>85296034
Because Katsumoto did.

>>85296034
Aside from being the Emperor, which deserves respect all by itself, I'd say it probably had to do with being educated by Katsumoto. Both Tom and the Emperor had something in common, as they were both friends of Katsumoto and were both schooled by him.

>>85295420
I was always bugged by the anti-Samurai sentiments of the Japanese antagonists. The relationship between Katsumoto and the Emperor, or the former-Samurai officer, felt more compelling: these were men who had nothing but respect for each other, but knew that only one of their groups could survive. The world was changing, and they needed to fight each other to the death, because their lives of consummate ceremony and tradition had left them ill-equipped for any other reality. They didn't begrudge each other, because they knew their place, their role, and their duty.

I think the spectre of time and modernity stripping away at a nation's foundations and principles, turning friend against friend, is a much more gripping and sorrowful story than having a stock antagonist money-grubbing railway tycoon, and would help capture Japan's unique flavour of ennui.

>>85296167
well put. I actually only recently saw the movie and I was impressed by the fact that the movie turned out that good despite being what I thought was nothing more than "white guy goes to japan and is the coolest guy around because he's white". There's a lot more to it and it even manages to make Tom Cruise look like a decent person. I don't think I've liked a Cruise movie this much since the first Mission Impossible.

It does, it literally does, that's probably the biggest thing fucking their growth since the burst. That and all the attention being focused on making oldshits comfy.
