O it’s funny

I dont get it

@@Karlss61 They are referring to Pokemon Conquest. A collab game between Koei Tecmo's Sengoku Musou (Samurai Warriors) and Nintendo's Pokemon. Where the characters of Sengoku Musou, like the aforementioned Oda Nobunaga, team up with Pokemons.

@@mdbr2 Some Pokemon/Warlord combos include Nobunaga/Zekrom, Hideyoshi/Reshiram, Iyeasu/Aggron, etc

very cool to see, I love to see remnants of clans and tribes still around in the modern era. Similarly in somalia, many tribes from the medieval period still exist and even still function relatively in the same way. Unfortunately this leads to some discrimination but its still cool to see tribes that were once known for dominating nearby regions or going toe to toe with european powers still exist.

Happened with lords in the uk, the decedents of medieval lords eventually became annoying pigs

It probably helps that most of the surviving daimyo were awarded Westernized peerages following the Meiji Restoration, making their lineages easier to trace

This is why I say many history teachers are bad at their jobs, and the curriculum they have to teach isn't well designed. History is amazing, and often more fantastical than fiction. The Sengoku Jidai. Bismarck. The bird-mania that happened after Augustus defeated Antony. The Dancing Mania, when people literally danced until they dropped dead of exhaustion. The battles of Alesia, or Cannae, or Zama, or anything that Bellisarius did. The pyramids. The Roman's self-repairing concrete that lasts centuries that we only figured out how it works in 2023. Admiral Sun Yi Sun-sin. If people say history is boring, it's because they were taught it by someone who had lost their passion for it, because history is littered with the most incredible stories. History classes in school should be designed to get kids interested and excited about learning it.

i like that quote cuz it makes sense cuz i mean people were kinda born so they could die later

People make all these frantic efforts to stay alive and safe, just to end up dead later. Might as well go out with *GLORY*

War of the Roses would be a good one, as would the War of the Three Kingdoms.

What I'd really like to see, the birth of Quantum Physics. It starts with Max Planck thinking about how to make a better light bulb, and ends with america building the bomb to take down the nazis. The characters in the story, a huge mix of wildly different personalities, all came together despite often having seriously divergent opinions on all manner of topics.

Columbus was not nearly as important as the textbooks make him. Actually his role in discovering America was pretty insignificant. Not exactly sure why American textbooks leeched onto him as the discoverer of the new world...

Sorry, but no. Giant enemy Crab was during Heian period, which was around 11th-12th century

Yes. Attack the weak point for massive damage.

***** Checks out.

And after the Japanese found which weak point they could attack for massive damage, the Giant Crab was quickly driven to extinction.

***** THat's kinda because Europe fucked with the history of every place in the world to a degree.

***** Because 'murica is heavily influenced by Europe, more than most countries.

***** Well aside from the fact that they've had fights with just about every european countries. I mean the US sttll makes fun of the French for Surrendering in WW2 never mind that France had still not recovered from WW1. Then there's the whole thing with the british.you know former colony and all that.

ehh in my classes I learned a lot about both Americas and Europe, a lot of the middle east and just a little bit about africa and east asia.

Would you like to know more? Check out Crash Course: World History, Part I and II, and/or Dan Carlin's Hardcore History podcast (in the case of the latter, I recommend starting with the Wrath of the Khans series - awesome stuff, esp. for those of us whose US/European public school system education didn't really cover much in the way of Asian history beyond brief mentions).

Is Oda odanobunaga

Hey about the gun odanobunaga used gun but why you no talk about it

I too feel like they didn't give Nobunaga the credit he deserves, It seems like they have already decide to show Ieyasu as the ultimate badass in the era.....but in reality? He was a bastard, a cold murderer of his own sons sending them to their doom and a kidnapper. Nobunaga? He was called "the fool of Owari" and that move on the imagawa prove the land he was SERIOUS BUSSINESS

Luis Aguilar Well to be fair, Ieyasu did care about the people and ruled with that idea in mind. He was still a brutal warlord--don't get me wrong, but he genuinely was a badass figure who led an amazing life. Unfortunately, compared to Nobunaga and Hideyoshi...his story kinda pales in comparison. I mean let's just take Nobunaga for example: Nobunaga was a recognized military genius who didn't really think the same way as most Japanese nobles. He didn't care much for rank or bloodlines or titles, seemed to have been contemptuous of gods and deities when most held that they should at least be respected, had a comparatively laid-back (and meritocratic) ruling style, promoted and improved trade, opened a tax-free market zone near his castle, his bodyguards and lieutenants are oftentimes composed of the same peasant brats he played (and wrestled) with as children ; he sang and danced whatever the hell he wanted to, did his own thing despite the amount of constant criticism he gets on a daily basis (as well as the general belief before Okehazama that he was a self-indulgent simpleton), was very receptive to new and novel ideas (especially in regards to the west) invented new battlefield tactics (especially in the deployment of firearms), and was probably a bisexual. The man, by all accounts, was REALLY, REALLY WEIRD...which of course means that a lot of time people misunderstand him (like with the gold-plated skull episode), and because of his own eccentricities, the way he responds to these misunderstandings was often quite odd as well: when people began calling him "Dairokuten Maou" (Demon King of the Sixth Heaven) after the Mt. Hiei episode, he seemed to have taken a liking to it and adopted it for himself. Part of the reason he got such a bad reputation was because he challenged and flat-out antagonized much of the common-held values of his time and a lot of people saw him as a violent reformer. And of course, because of the Hiei scenario, the monks understandably didn't like him. And they were the ones doing most of the writing. The man embodied the unpredictable nature of the times, was both hero and villain to most of his contemporaries, and at least for me, he also embodies a few delightful traits of the Japanese people: innovation and a special love for novelty. His reputation is recovering in more recent portrayals of him in Japan partly because I feel that because of modern Japan's very rigid and conservative (and frankly disillusioning) social structure, he now represents the new generation's (romantic) desire to reform and change their country--to "take their fate into their own hands", "to go against the old world" and to "prove themselves after being underestimated" like Nobunaga did, and also because the younger Japanese people are, like him, generally more open to foreign concepts than their predecessors, and now see the wisdom in his policies and his adoption of foreign ideas. In many ways, he's become the spirit of Japanese counter-culture.

In other words, he was what Nitzche would call a superman, Ieyasu was nothing at his side. Meanwhile, Hideyoshi Hashiba was a peasant that rise from literally nothing and was too a weird man for the timw (he marry because of love, that was weird by its own means)

What do you expect from a pop-art inspired

He gets more focus in the next few parts. There are six parts of this series, so a

Re: the second part... You're going to enjoy a moment a few scripts down the line ; ) -JP

Kessen III is a lot of fun, but if you want another excellent experience based on the era, you should try out the Nobunaga's Ambition series. More political than Kessen, but that's part of what makes this time period so interesting.

Matsudaira Takechiyo ↓ Matsudaira Motonobu ↓ Matsudaira Motoyasu ↓ Matsudaira Ieyasu ↓ Tokugawa Ieyasu

It was actually the game Samurai Warriors 2: Empires that first got me interested in the era. I've also played the first Kessen, Nobunaga's Ambition: Iron Triangle, and Shogun 2, and I'm waiting for Samurai Warriors 4 to fall in price a bit so that I can afford it with my budget.

Currently playing Sengoku Basara 4 lol

Nice. ^-^

Extra Credits I got a suggestion for you. How about doing a topic no one expected? Ferdinand Magellan and the philippines.

+Extra Credits COMMIT SEPIKU!!!

liam megahy​ Ehh? No.

+Extra Credits Let me see if I have this straight. Ieyasu was taken hostage in 1548 and released 8 years later. Does that mean he was 8 when he was taken hostage!?

I mean makes sense this war is what Samurai Warriors series is based off of.

I second this. Maybe a series for each of the kingdoms.

Also the seven warring states of china

Yassss!!! I grew up playing KOEI historical sims so these warring periods of Ancient China and Japan always fascinate !

a series about Wu Zetian would be great too

What Netflix series? Just curious

Quote: "And whoever controls the Shogun, *at least in theory*, controls Japan."

I was thinking similar.I for one will be looking for more information on that I think. Something to do before the next one comes out.

Well, I *think* it's like this. The Shogunate is Japan's military leader, basically the only person with more authority then him is the emperor himself. If a clan could march on Kyoto, defeat the shogunate, and claim the title, they will be basically the military leader of Japan, thus kinda controlling it. It's basically a fight to become the alpha male of the pack of wolves. This information could be completely inaccurate though so please don't take my word for it.

Nogitsune Actually, the Emperor was a figurehead for almost the entierity of Japan's history, unlike the one in China. The Shogun had much more real power than he did. The emeperor's role was as a spiritual and cultural leader, and he and his court spent most of their time on pointless rituals in the capital. Outward displays of status. Only a few Emperors managed to break this mold.

Unahim Enter Emperor Meiji, gunpowder and the Boshin Senso. It amazes me to this day that Japan turned from an almost medieval state to a fully modernised, armed nation almost entirely under his rule.

KONO WALPOLE DA!!!!!

Correction. Rich and important people hired samurai, poor people who could not afford a samurai did not hire a samurai.

+Justt436 Only if it was grounded in realism. Nothing would suck the interest out of the historical setting more than dudes jumping twenty feet in the air and running faster than a bullet.

I think they have made Sengoku era many, MANY different animes. After all, It is one of the most famous era in Japan. And Oda Nobunaga are really famous.

Justt436 it did look at Naruto

There are animes based on it. If you want, try looking up Hyouge Mono.
