Topic	There's a Wild Scandal Going On with Historian Who Wrote Book About Yasuke
DodogamaRayBrst 07/17/24 7:14:12 PM #100:	If he actually wrote that Yasuke was the one who concluded Nobunaga's seppuku I'm shocked that wasn't caught out earlier because while I'm by no means an expert, I've read a fuckbucket of stuff about Nobunaga, including academic texts and I've never heard that before. My impression was always that there was not enough source material on Yasuke to make much of any definitive claims about him, much less something that significant. Considering how quick wikipedia editors are to smell bullshit, I can't believe that didn't raise an eyebrow. While this might be shady, at the end of the day I don't think anyone cares for any reason other than that there's a black dude in the new samurai game. <cite>DodogamaRayBrst posted [p:981339034] in There's a ...
