Why is the samurai mc of a Japanese game set in the edo period a blue eyed blondie?
it's a fantasy
>>335944323
All the human culture, all the results of art, science and technology that we see before us today, are almost exclusively the creative product of the Aryan. This very fact admits of the not unfounded inference that he alone was the founder of all higher humanity, therefore representing the prototype of all that we understand by the word "man." He is the Prometheus of mankind from whose shining brow the divine spark of genius has sprung at all times, forever kindling anew that fire of knowledge which illuminated the night of silent mysteries and thus caused man to climb the path to mastery over the other beings of the earth . . . It was he who laid the foundations and erected the walls of every great structure in human culture.

According to Wikipedia he's based on an actual half-white/half-Japanese samurai
>>335944323
If you think there wasn't other samurais you're dumb. A man from the Netherlands and man from the Congo both became samurais. The black man was a servant of Oda Nobunaga.
>>335945052
WE WUZ SAMURAIS N SHIET
>>335945052
Naw, it was just a Japanese man doing blackface.
Because nips have a huge boner for germans and scandinavians
It was very loosely based on William Adams, or Miura Anjin, famous white samurai and important adviser to would-be-shogun Tokugawa Ieyasu
>>335944885
No, William, the historical figure, was pretty white.
He was English Navigator working for the Dutch East India Company
>>335945052
AYO HOL UP
>>335945479
L I T E R A L L Y part of that black samurai's history was that upon arrival the dude ordered him to be soaped and scrubbed because he didn't believe his skin was actually dark, and lo and behold it was.
>>335944323
He's based off of an actual Englishman who got shipwrecked, made it to Japan, and became the first western samurai.
>>335944323
He's based off a real guy.
>literally Geralt
Why not ask him?
>>335946127
I think Yasuke could be argued to be the first foreign Samurai.
Adams did have a more lasting impact mostly because his lord ended up lasting way more than Nobunaga who died a year after meeting Yasuke

This isn't a black supremacist thing, There's an actual book of him called the black servant look it up.

I don't really like Tom Cruise. The only movies I've found a little entertaining is Edge of Tomorrow and Rain Man.
Is this movie good?
>>335944885
The character in Ni-Oh is bi-racial.
The historical figure he's based on, however, was just some britcuck who found his way to Japan.
Japanese peoppe are hideous so they give white aesthetics to their characters
>>335947108
Last Samurai is actually very good, definitely worth a watch.
>>335944323

More like thye know you guys will cry if a white man isnt on the cover so they just give everyone vaguely white features
Pretty much every other country does the same thing, its a thing thats tolerated since most of the money comes from whites

In other words that guy was extremely talented at pulling off blackface.
He's William Adams
>>335944323
Look up William Adams.
>>335947646
nah it's because the japanese prefer white facial features over their own and wish they looked white
>>335947917
I had a friend who was white/asian

There is literally a thread about this every single day.

Except that person was purely European, meanwhile the MC in Nioh is half-white only.

This is how a half-Asian person looks like.
>>335949802
I have a little tiny one somewhere that I used to decorate my desk, but other than that no.
Also I am fairly sure that having a katana doesn't make you a samurai.
>>335949759
What even is half-white? Can light skin asians even be considered their own race apart from white?

Nigga Yasuke was loyal to his master, quit your memeing.

He is only 1/8 Asian. His father was a mix of 4 ethnicities, one of them being Chinese, which is from where his Asian ancestry comes from.

>>335946380
Yasuke was not granted the title of Samurai, William was the first
>>335949759
>meanwhile the MC in Nioh is half-white only.
Perhaps both parents where half white.
1/2+1/2=1/2
A half jap half white can't have blue eyes. Both parents need to have white ancestry for that to happen. That's why some African Americans do have colored eyes.
>>335951189
>People in Azuchi even said he might be made a lord (殿 tono?), however this did not happen, but he was granted the samurai rank which came with a considerable stipend. Yasuke was also mentioned in the prototype of Shinchōkōki owned by Sonkeikaku Bunko (尊経閣文庫), the archives of the Maeda Clan. According to this, Yasuke was given his own residence and a short, ceremonial katana by Nobunaga. Nobunaga also assigned him the duty of weapon bearer.[8]
Straight from wiki.
Could be wrong tho.

>>335952871
He's not the first Japanese foreigner, He arrived in 1600, while Yasuke arrived in 1579. He's the 1st weeabo that arrived that wasn't a slave.
>>335952884
What did I say that was wrong? An ethnical japanese and a random white person with blue eyes or whatever cannot have children with blue eyes. That is, unless the ethnical japanese has the recessive blue eyes gene dormant, which is un-fucking-likely.
This game is set when Japan just barely opened up to western people, you see. How the fuck does his japanese parent even have this gene?
>>335952713
also a new name
Miura Anjin
>>335953414
Someone literally posted a picture of a Chinese broad with blonde hair and blue eyes.
>>335946303
This is a common misconception but Tom Cruise wasn't the Last Samurai, the dude he hung out with and learned from was the Last Samurai.
>>335952754
Yes, but because of the way the alleles work it's possible for a 1/2 Asian child to have blonde hair and blue eyes if both parents were also mixed, and he got lucky.
Blonde hair is recessive, black hair is dominant.
Blue eyes are recessive, brown eyes are dominant.
If each parent were hiding the recessive alleles they could give life to a blonde-haired blue-eyed WhAsian at 1/8th probability.

>>335952018
>This is the third time this happened this year
what were the other two?
I think its pretty odd William, the main character, is half-european half-jap when we see him literally coming out of a western ship wearing sailor clothes in 1600.
This implies that he was sailing with the westerns around 1600, and dudes a gruff man
When did his parents fuck? They must have fucked, have the kid, then either the father or the mother travel BACK to Europe so he could sail back to japan when he is older.
Thats just odd
>>335953538
You mean an Uyghur girl, which is a group of people of mixed race. Two parents of mixed race can have blue eyed children, if they both have the recessive gene, duh.
I'm talking about a fucking island nigger who hasn't met a white person in 10000 years and a white person who just arrived to this same island and they have a son. That is the MC of this game.
>>335953613
Oh, I thought you were strictly talking about the ethnic halves.
>1/2+1/2=1/2
I was like wtf
>>335947108
It's damn good. Cruise is spot on and Watanabe plays a good foil to him

We've gotten to the point where anti-SJW are triggered by facts and history too.
How long is it until ww3 starts because someone says 2+2 equals 4?
>>335953837
Or an Asian person went to Europe, had a kid and the kid grew up and sailed to Asia?
Why did you make that way more complicated?

Are slavs Aryans?

>forbidden to leave by the Shogun

No.
>>335954052
I find it fucking hilarious. I bet if they made a game with Yasuke there would be constant bitching.
>>335953365
>implying he wasn't a slave as well
He forced to stay in Japan to build boats. Sure, he was a samurai and given a qt azn wife, but who knows if he wanted to stay or go back to England.
>>335953837
>I think its pretty odd William, the main character, is half-european half-jap
Japs make white characters and claim they're half Nip all the time, look at Guilty Gear.
>>335948570
Why did he get surgery
>>335954363
But people on /v/ enjoy Afro Samurai and Samurai Champloo so I doubt they would be triggered that much.

>>335954404
I know that part but I was meaning when he arrived. It sucks ass that he had to stay but he probably liked it.
>>335954363
No one would be bitching, only making fun of it with WEEEE
Japs wouldn't play it though.

Japs would play it, he's a popular showcase considering he worked for one of the most feared/respected warlord.
>>335954613
You might be right, in fact I think you are.
>>335954754
So European Mediterranean is Aryan?
Greek? Italian? Spanish?
>>335954767
Wasn't civilization born in the middle east?
Then the middle east fell and southern European civilizations flourished and became giants, while east-Asia just did its own thing and became huge too and India got big as well
Americans were being technologically slower but they also had a bunch of civilizations
>>335954075
The first japanese mission to europe happened in 1982. They only got in actual europe around 1984.
That seems to be the first time Japanese went to europe and actually left families there. That would put the MC with 15-16 years
Or he is some rape baby either of some poor Jap chick who got sold as a slave in the slave trade or some poor european chick that somehow managed to meet Japanese Pirates
because the first cutscene you see someone on a fucking raft who came from a boat off into the distance, onto an island. Are people really going to be this retarded and wonder how naval travel works?
>>335947108
SAAAKEEEEE!
Finally beat level 1.
Shit was tough.
But its cool that strong enough bows can one hit dudes in the head. I was trying to hard to parry when I started but the reward is so fucking tiny compared to the reward. Youre better of just waiting until they run out of stamina and going for the kick to seal the deal with the Charged triangle finisher.
Made the game 10x easier after that. Also Sprinting backwards instead of dodging is 10x better than just dodging.
>>335955531
Reward is tiny compared to the risk*
>all of these biased as fuck answers
Literally reminds me of any and all internet news comment sections.
>>335955531
The timed guard is more useful than the parry in my opinion. Staggers them and drains about 2/3 of their stamina. The parry is top tier for style though. Especially if you get the follow ups.
>>335949917
looks like downs
>>335955531

I always assumed that it was plural, as in "These are the last samurai."
>>335946303
I never understood the hate for that movie. I mean, arguing about the quality is fine, but people got mad because they cast a white person as the last samurai? The plot is an American outsider becoming a samurai, having an Asian instead of Tom Cruise wouldn't make any sense.
>>335944323
For a second I thought that was the Witcher 2 box art
>>335949917
Good for him, you don't see many of them become cops.
>>335956365
No one who has seen the movie hates the movie.
>>335956109
Also accurate.
>>335956365
The question is:
Is necessary to even have the american outsider element.
I mean the Satsuma Rebellion actually happened, and there wasn't a american dude who helped the big last samurai in his seppuku.
I mean i like the Last Samurai enough to not get bothered by it, but its the mentality that you need a westerner to sell the movie to westerners
Consider the Forbidden Kingdom. That one movie where Jackie Chan fought with Jet Li. That enough should've been a selling point of the movie. But then we also got some white kid played by Michael Angarano who became the choosen hero at the end. As much as i think the kid did alright with the fight choreography, i just think the movie would've been plainly better without him.
>>335953593
It's an easy mistake to make for anyone who hasn't seen the movie though. I mean just look at that picture. It practically says "TOM CRUISE IS THE LAST SAMURAI, LOOK AT HIM"
>>335956970
>Is necessary to even have the american outsider element.
From a storytelling perspective it gives viewers an entry point for cultural differences and shit shown in the movie.
Accessibility was made in mind.
>>335957146
Couldn't that be done with any of the poor japs conscripted by the Modern army?
I mean, i get it that it allows you to have a bigger audience and so a bigger budget, i just don't think its necessary for a better product.
>>335957356
>Couldn't that be done with any of the poor japs conscripted by the Modern army?
Not at all because they made it a very important part of the movie to show their culture.
It would be out of place to have a native japanese guy learning japanese culture with what they were going for.
>>335947567
This is millennia of breeding, not some "jap guy meets white girl" shit story.
>>335956970
Oh shit nigger, is this like your first Samurai Movie?
The Movie with Tom Cruise was interesting, it's not the TYPICAL Samurai Story. If you want that, there is tons of better stuff. This was about the end of an era, brought by the white race and white tech.
And he as a Gaijin, who brought all this "trouble" accidently sided with the local folk and learned to love it.Forbidden Kingdom was shit, get some taste
>>335957836
It was shit.
I blame the fact theres that white kid there.
>>335947108
>not watching Minority Report
>not having watched Collateral
I mean, he has a shit bias for his church, but some of his movies are gold. Especially Collateral is a movie i can always watch.

>>335957972
Yeah, that white kid was sure just for quotes and making it like Karate Kid, you know, that big hit around the world, where two cultures clash together in a new way.
Thats what people want.
Sometimes it works out, sometimes it doesn't.
Ni-Oh works fine, because it's japanese folk tale and fantasy stuff, you don't have to be accurate at all.
And it actually looks like there is more characters to choose than just this whitey.

Wat? Forbidden Kingdom was literally Last Action Hero but with fung-fu instead of 80's action. The entire plot revolves around the 'fish-out-of-water' outsider element of the film.
But, to be fair, the movie was pretty awful.
>>335958714
I guess they just wanted one character for westerners to identify with then. Even William Adams adopted a Japanese name though, it's odd for them to keep his name English, also considering his father is Japanese and not his mother.
He reminds me a bit of Soki from Onimusha
>>335958714
>>335958193
>Ni-Oh will have multiple playable characters besides Will
>And it actually looks like there is more characters to choose than just this whitey.
Where are you guys taking this from?
>>335958851
Yeah, but then again you could just take every single actor/character from that movie take the white kid and have the movie work.
The fish out of water element isn't wrong or compelling enough and with some restructuring you could easily make it work without the kid.
I understand completely what they're going for.
But both the kid from Last Action Hero and this kid from Forbidden Kingdom sucked so what we're left with?
>>335959193Even if Last Action Hero is kind of a meh movie the Hamlet scene absolutely saves everything.
>>335959193
Don't use a shitty kid as the protagonist of your film?
I'm trying to think of a movie where a young child played the main role in a fish out of water story that wasn't complete garbage. So far I'm kind of drawing a blank.
