They say the Yasuke stuff is historically accurate on their multilingual website, but they block Japanese from viewing this website. But on their Japanese local site, they acknowledge it's fiction/fantasy. It's almost as if they are trying to misinform the non-Japanese about something they would have limited information on, while knowing the Japanese would see through and call out their misinformation immediately.

@@The_JamesV I mean, think about it this way. It's actually simple. If Ubisoft is not engaging in some sort of agenda that serves as history revisionism, there would be no need to constantly insist that Yasuke is actually a "real" samurai in Japanese history. Why? Because just like they say on their Japanese site, "it's fictional". So why does Yasuke *_have to_* be a real samurai in history for them? Because they want to revise Japanese history. Plain and simple.

The most realistic reception to Yasuke would be the one going on right now with Japanese fans and fans of any sort of historical accuracy reacting to the nonsense of Yasuke as a Samurai. Look at the backlash online. That would've been the backlash in 1500 Japan to a six foot black guy walking around town in armor bearing the crest of Oda. It's a literal "elephant in the room" metaphor made real, there would be thousands of references to the giant black samurai in Oda's court protecting him. But no, there are virtually zero references to Yasuke, and none of them state he was a samurai. Most of Yasuke's story is based on the fiction written by Lockley. Even the claim he was given a stipend and land is dubious, you cannot find original text be it Jesuit or Japanese, there are places that say this and they provide sources, but if you actually read the sources you won't find any reference and at best a footnote, which again is the elephant in the room, how could there not be a hundred references over the course of a year about a giant black guy whether he a Bushi or Samurai...

That's the normal impression the average Japanese gamer would have if they saw this game. A Japanese man who first visited America and within 15 months became a hero respected by Americans during the Civil War. He spoke fluent English and became a legendary soldier with a thorough understanding of American culture. This is about as messed up as it gets. If it were fiction, it would be a stupid game and laughable, but when you say "true to history," it's a culture war.

Wikipedia was correct before but the staff in Ubisoft changed this to make their game closer to historic accuracy. And someone else changed it back. They kept going back and forth until Wikipedia locked the page claiming that experts suggested that Yasuke was a full-fledged samurai. Most websites in the west talking about yasuke was already changed as well. The truth is a lot of entertainment is trying to push minorities into having more relevance in history just to make us feel more important, and anyone who challenges them about it is called a racist and homophobe just to shield themselves from the criticism. And it's not the first time the West has tried to revise history through entertainment. They changed the races of Cleopatra, Achilles, Anne Boleyn, Isaac Newton and other important figures in an attempt to erase white or light skinned people from any accomplishment in history for the next generation. Western companies and activists are trying to change Japanese culture to suit themselves and say they speak for the entire Western world and most of us here are against it. We would like Japan to stay the way it is, but we fear sooner or later it's going to end up with the same problems like we have.

Thank you for explaining our feelings with your well-researched knowledge. I laughed along with you as you explained the scene with a half smile on your face. I learned some things that I did not know. I am very grateful that you are conveying the feelings of the Japanese people. As for the controversy over Yasuke's surname, my personal opinion is that since Yasuke worked for Oda, it is highly likely that the values surrounding Yasuke and his surname were basically those of a samurai. Therefore, it would be much better to interpret the surname according to the values of the samurai than to interpret it according to the values and common sense of the common people. Incidentally, there is a record that Nobunaga Oda was fond of sumo and gave his surname to the winner of a tournament he organized. There are many other records concerning rewards. If Yasuke had obtained a family name, it must have been recorded, so we have no choice but to accept the theory that he could not have a family name, which is necessary for a samurai. From this point on, I think the only way is to follow the records related to Nobunaga, not Yasuke. I think that Yasuke was not a samurai. Still, I would like to believe that the 15 months Yasuke spent with his mansion, wages, and dagger were much more human than those of a typical black slave. As for Naoe, I remember that there was no such hood in Japan at that time. So, first of all, let's modify the hood to a more Japanese design, just a little more, and then modify the hairstyle as well. Then think about the sword and clothes.... よく調べられた知識で私たちの感情を説明してくれてありがとう。半笑いしながら解説しているシーンなど、私も一緒に笑ってしまいました。又、私の知らないこともでてきたのでとても勉強になりました。日本人の気持ちが伝わっている事、非常に有難いです。弥助の苗字論争についてですが、個人的な意見としては、弥助は織田のもとで働いていたのだから、弥助とその苗字をめぐる価値観は基本的に武士のものであった可能性が高いと思います。従って、庶民の価値観や常識で苗字を解釈するよりも、武士の価値観で苗字を解釈する方がずっと良いのではないでしょうか。ちなみに、織田信長は相撲が好きで、自分が主催した大会で優勝した人に名字を与えたという記録があります。他にも、報奨に関する記録はたくさんあります。弥助が姓を得たのであれば、必ず記録に残っているはずなので、武士に必要な姓を持つことはできなかったという説を推すしかなのが現状かとおもいます。此処から先は弥助ではなく、信長に関する記録を追うしかないのではないかと思います。私は弥助は武士ではなかったと思っています。それでも、弥助が屋敷と給金と短刀を貰って過ごした15カ月は、一般的な黒人奴隷のそれよりもはるかに人間に近いものだったと信じたいです。ナオエについては、当時の日本にはそのような頭巾はなかったと記憶しています。なのでまず頭巾をもう少しだけ日本よりのデザインに修正し、ついでにヘアスタイルも直しましょう。それから刀や服について考えましょう…。

There were people who carried swords on their backs. It was just that you could not draw the sword while carrying it on your back. This theory has remained basic to this day. Recently, I saw a video of a person trying to draw a sword from his back. However, after all, it was also a process of pulling down the scabbard in a circular motion and then pulling out the sword. So...yes. If they are on the battlefield, it would be safer to let them wear swords on their waists rather than on their backs. 刀を背負って運ぶ方はいましたよ。背負ったままでは抜刀できないというだけで。このセオリーは現代まで基本となっています。背負い姿から抜刀してみる映像も最近みました。しかし結局それも鞘を円を描くように引き下ろした後で抜刀するという流れでした。なので…そうですね。もし彼らが戦場にいるというのであれば刀は背中ではなく腰に佩かせてあげるのが無難でしょうね。

The "flawed" history is best explained in the first game in a conversation between Vidic and Desmond, Desmond tells Vidic that the history seemed off, flawed somehow, Vidic retaliates with "doesn't match up with what you read on an online encyclopedia, what your high school history teacher taught you? Let me ask you something, do these supposed experts have access to secret knowledge kept hidden from the rest of us?", "But there are books, letters, documents, all kinds of source material from back then, some of it seems to contradict what the animus is showing me." "Anyone can write a book, and they can put whatever they want on its pages...".

There is zero period evidence for Yasuke at all. Try to find pictures of letters or accounts discussing him that can be verified from the period. The claims about Portuguese missionaries all come from the book African Samurai, by Thomas Lockley and Geoffrey Girard. I suspect they got the claims from a myth by actual Japanese people but with no actual source for the myth, that's where it ends. You cannot find actual period evidence because it doesn't exist.

@The_JamesV 16 күн бұрын

Probably should have stated my sources hehe - On the Japanese side: Yasuke was mentioned in the "Shinchō Kōki" written by Ōta Gyūichi, which is a chronicle about Oda Nobunaga. It is preserved, translated and was published in 2011. The Japanese wikipedia acknowledges him, which is also worth mentioning. Since the majority of Japanese were illiterate back then, it's more difficult to obtain written evidence that lasts to this day. - On the Western side: In 1581, there's a letter from Luís Fróis to Lourenço Mexia that retells the actually meeting, saying that Nobunaga forced Yasuke to strip and scrub the black from his body because he thought it was soot. In 1582, Luís Fróis wrote a report that documented the entire meeting.

IDK, it is pretty wild that Japan, among nearly all Asian countries, have been hyper racist against black folks well into today's age. So i get that Ubisoft embellished, obviously, but the racism outcry is disgusting and honestly people who think that way don't deserve video games. I keep seeing the word "pandering" and its funny, because you all are just having jump scares seeing yet another main character who is black. LOL And weren't y'all the same ones who were pissed about affirmative action being used "too much" for black students, so you got it reversed, and then suddenly Asian students no longer could benefit from AA as well so they started to yell into the void because their racist angles ended up backfiring on them? I have to giggle. Anyway, I hope folks enjoy the game because as much complaining as gamers do about literally everything, they still somehow play the games in spite of their own Monster Energy induced rage.

At the very least, Japanese people, Japanese residents, and other Asians who are familiar with Japan will not enjoy it. This is because the game does not even match the depiction of the four seasons, which is a minimum requirement. Furthermore, yesterday, an image of rice cultivation in Myanmar was unearthed from the concept art. UBI even got the country wrong in their preliminary research. Reading the interview, it sounded like they were very precise and correcting their mistakes as they went along. Akechi Mitsuhide was a subordinate of Nobunaga before the Honnoji Incident. Mitsuhide was a great ruler and was adored by the people. It is strange that Yasuke should go to Fukuchiyama and ravage the place. You know how they say, "When making a fantasy, there is a minimum plot to follow in order to make it interesting"? Shadows deviates from that requirement by a long shot. 少なくとも、日本人や日本人在住者、日本に詳しいアジア人は楽しめないでしょう。なぜならこのゲーム、最低限必要な四季の描写さえ合っていないから。更には昨日、コンセプトアートからミャンマーの稲作の画像が発掘されました。 UBIは下調べする国さえも間違えました。インタビューを読むととても正確に、間違いを正しながらつくっていったように聞こえていたのですけどね。そもそも本能寺の変の前までは明智光秀は信長の部下でした。そして光秀名君であり民衆から慕われていました。福知山にいって弥助が荒らし回ること自体がそもそも奇妙です。「ファンタジーを作る際、面白くする為に最低限守るべきプロットがある」というのはご存知ですか？シャドウズはその要件を遥かに逸脱しています。

But what we can say for sure is that there is no primary documentation that a legendary samurai who was respected by the Japanese people and climbed to the top of the Japanese hierarchy ever existed in Japan. Yasuke is a historical fact that he existed in Japan, but he was nothing more than a leaf floating in a puddle of water. If you deny it, show me where the description is in the primary sources. Wikipedia, which can be freely rewritten, is not a source. Neither is Lockley's historical novel. Documents, journals, and manuscripts from the Warring States period are primary sources. If you have clear evidence, the Japanese will admit it, just like William Adams (Anjin Miura). You don't criticize propaganda without any evidence, do you?
