Maybe they're not wearing helmets because they know they're not gonna help? I mean, if a katana lightsabers its way through a chestplate, I'd imagine it'd go right through a helmet, too, right? They totally missed out there, they should've shown everyone going into battle naked!

I do think *ASIDE FROM THE DRAMATIZATIONS* Age of the Samurai is a decent jumping off point. They never said it was a main battlefield weapon, they said, "it was the finest sword ever made." Which is not only highly subjective, but lacks a lot of context. Frankly, the fact that the Japanese were able to forge something even usable out of tamahagare is nothing short of miraculous. The katana is an excellent weapon, and a very good all-rounder, imo. It can thrust, cuts very well, is highly shock resistant, but is it the "best"? Not really. Its strengths are that it is good at all those things, but there are other swords that are better than it in each individual aspect.

The idea that important people don't wear a helmet is such a video game trope. In many games where a faction has uniformed gear the notable NPCs don't wear helmets so you can easily find them. Ironic, since wealthy Samurai would wear extravagant helmets to show their status, wealth and probably intimidation as well.

@ezrafaulk3076

I know right; ironically, it'd probably be fairly accurate to portray them wearing Kawari Kabuto (strange helmets) that had horns on them, as it'd make them look intimidating on the battlefield (especially paired with the mask), AND of course make them easier to identify. There might be SOME kinds of outfits you'd wear without a helmet, but a full suit of armor ISN'T one of them.

The historians who worked on this also helped Sony with Genji 2.

Ok, I died inside several times watching that series. Now, I need a "brutal" reaction...! 🤣

Metatron, please talk about the Mochizuke Chiyome, i've been reading about and it has no historic backup, right? In the series they say, also, that she was a Iga ninja, but the even in the Inagaki book, she was a Koga ninja.

When I first saw the trailer I admit, I was kinda hyped, like everyone else. But after the first episode...I was laughing and crying, because all of the mistakes they made and the way they showed us Nobunaga and all of that anime-like thingies. My favourite ,,what the hell?" moment when the commander named Sakuma literally charged into the Toyotomi forces in the battle of Shizugatake alone, without a helmet, waving his sword in the air, in short, he done it in the most stupidest way he could possible do.

Thanks for your honesty ! Netflix really needs to step up their research game instead of using hollywood clichés! They have the audience to set things right too. Disgraceful History channel level stuff sadly

Yes do make a video about the difference between early firearms.

Would you consider making a video on the armour, weapons and general equipment of the sohei warrior monks? I think it would make a nice video, since of course there was variation but there seems to be a running theme (naginatas, kanabos, the covering of the armour, etc)

You know this is gonna be serious when the Metatron start the video with a pilum harakiri.

Great insight from metatron, just watched the doc.

Got to say I love your channel man and I'm happy you are correcting this series before I finished it. Secondly, could you recommend any good and reliable Samurai history/armor and weapons books?????

Epic video!

Dear Metatron, In an older video you talk about effective martial arts. You placed Kenjutsu in combination with Kendo at 2nd place after HEMA. I wondered if you took Kenjutsu and combined it with Gekiken? Would that change this where they might be a bit more equal? Since Gekiken is much less limited then Kendo (Which as you mentioned is more akin to modern fencing then anything else.) and incorporates throws and grapples? Thank you :)

Unrelated to the video but I’m curious about aikuchi style swords, swords with no tsuba. I’d like to know when in history they were made, where and why? Thanks for all the informative videos keep it up!

DAmn bro. You got some quality showmanship :D

Getting new Metatron content actually makes up for Age of Samurai’s existence.

About the thrusting the point of your katana into the ground, I remember quite clearly despite the years passed (it was 1986 last time they aired it, at an inhumane time of the day too) that one of the latest episodes (second to last episode, if I recall correctly) of the TV drama Lone Wolf and Cub (in Italian laconically renamed "Samurai") was explained by the off screen narrator voice it was a gesture of momentary truce in a duel or battle. Are my memories defective or my,long time in the past sources incorrect?

Apart from the awesome content and daring impression at 13:42; I must say: you have a very impressive collection of tin soldiers.

And this is why I trust the Metatron over any Netflix series anytime!! Thank you professor for providing truth and light over such a series. Please do one on the Roman Empire series from the same streaming service. once again TRUST THE METATRON!!!

I would have thought a closer translation of 忍 is "to endure". Great review. I saw the first episode, shuddered, and expunged it from the mental record.

Oh shit, there's a new episode?! Can't wait; thanks for the heads up, mate!

@metatron whats your opinion on the extra history episodes on the sengoku jidai?

Love you videos! The naginata looks more like a machete or a dao mounted in a pole than a katana... you are funny when you are incassato! Auguri ;)
