Yasuke

Post by FangTrigger »

Evening all. I'm working on writing a book/movie about Yasuke Nobunaga, the first ever Afro-Samurai of Japan, but I need a little help. According to different websites, he was granted the title/position of Weapon Bearer, yet I can't find any information about that tile. If anyone knows more about Yasuke or the above mentioned title, I'd really appreciate it.

From JP wikipedia: 時には道具持ちをしていたという記述がある

It's not a title, he just performed the duties of a weapon bearer.

You're going to have a helluva time getting sources if you don't read Japanese.

Don't I know it. I've been studying it for a while, but have only gotten up to 500 words. これわ むずぁしです
