>William Adams (24 September 1564 – 16 May 1620), known in Japanese as Miura Anjin (三浦按針: "the pilot of Miura"), was an English navigator who in 1600 was the first of his nation to reach Japan. One of a few survivors of the only Dutch East India Company ship to reach Japan from a five-ship expedition of 1598, Adams settled there and became the first ever (and one of the very few) Western Samurai.

nah... the dude that heared about him in 1630 and started reading up on japan and buying japanese shit and analy masturbating with a imported catana and annoying his neighbours with bad japanese phrases, without ever going to japan, he was the first weeaboo

or rather, historicaly, the romanticists going crazy over oriental crap were more or less the start of it all

then theres also marco polo... even if mongols arent realy japanese but whatever
