It's not just Hollywood, there's several centuries' worth of entertainment industries creating their own interpretations of how things look, and their successors copying and further developing those ideas. The idea of ninja wearing black, for example, comes from Japanese kabuki theatre.
Ninjas are often depicted as using deadly poison as a tool during their assassination. The truth is that the most common poison they used was horse manure. They would place needles in horse manures for a few days, and later on use said needle to injure their target. Hence, most people would actually die from an infection rather than poisoning, i.e. a long and gruesome death sentence.
There are two notable poisons they did use together with manure. One is ground up seeds from the wisteria plant, which were cooked into food. This could cause things like internal bleeding and dehydration through excessive sweating. Not very pleasant. The other is the bark and needles of yew trees used to kill livestock, to sabotage food supply over a long period of time.
I know this is just a sponsored video, and I don't know if it's just a one time thing. But I want to see this concept for other groups like knights, pirates, and vikings.
There’s a thought that the idea of all black ninjas came from stage-hands dressed in all black. The audience was taught to ignore the stage-hands until one of them turned out to be a ninja pretending to be a stage-hand.
Slightly wrong a director of a show felt like the show was lacking the element of surprise so he decided to make one of the stage hands an assassin in the shows story
@@lmXela To go more into it. IIRC it was a very well-known play that depicted the betrayal of a specific shogun. The stage directions just stated that "A Ninja kills him" and it was kind of a game among the viewers to see if they could predict which of the characters on stage would turn out to be the ninja. So in this one particular performance, since it was in front of the elite leadership, when the scene of death came, the moment one of the stagehands dropped the prop they were carrying, pulled out a sword, and attacked the victim, it took the audience by surprise and they lost their minds at it.
I gotta be honest I really appreciate this return to a focus more on drawing and character art. I know it may get old for Jazza but IDK, it just holds my attention better because it's where my own artistic interests lie, rather than always varying the mediums and subject matter.
From what he's said previously, it's actually some of his favourite stuff to do, but doesn't perform well on TH-cam. Good to see him enjoying himself though.
@@alexanderlambert295 Yeah, I'd seen that but I also thought he enjoyed the change of pace. But maybe that was just putting a positive spin on the unfortunate need to chase the algorithm.
I'm not an artist in any way, shape, or form, but still love this more basic content. I find it memorising watching artists work as they turn a blank page into a masterpiece. I have huge respect for all the artists out there 😍😍
I'm an author and major researcher into Japan and especially oda nobunaga and his life and this literally made me cry . You captured his death so beautifully and the music really got to me too
As much as I love when Jazza gets to do something “big” I ADORE when Jazza just gets to DRAW. As a longtime follower it just makes me happy to see something closer to the “roots” of the channel 😅
Fun fact: many of the ninja weapons were just farming tools. Since most of the Shinobi were just working class people while the samurai were mostly noble.
All that you need to be a Shinobi is money and training. They weren't separate groups. In fact multiple famous shinobi were samurai. Samurai is a class, shinobi is a job, you can be both.
Going to this straight from Metatron's critique of the game is quite fun. You are maybe even more historically accurate than Ubisoft, especially the fact that Shinobi and Samurai were not mutually exclusive:D Great art pieces as always! Seems like you really took your time with this art to make it quite refined. Love it.
having them mutually exclusive in hit case is more a game play thing. People did IIRC mumble about about how Evie and Fry was to similar to play. So it makes sense to have two clearly distinct play styles. But yeah.. Ubisoft can say what they want... The AC games are historicly accurate in the same way that 1910 history books were...
My favourite thing about Akechi Mitsuhide is no-one knows why he did it. It's one of history's great mysteries. There's a number of theories, including ones that he may have been bought off, but Oda Nobunaga was also infamously volatile and prone to mood swings and lashing out at/humiliating his retainers. He did things like push them in ponds and throw things at them. And I must admit, I do like the honestly pretty funny idea that Mitsuhide was just feeling especially petty after Nobunaga was mean to him during a council meeting.
all black would make them stand out, which is the LAST thing they would have wanted. The thought of someone, any one you pass could be a ninja out to kill you, that is mental warfare.

I really love experimentation and i keep that flame alive in my day to day as much as possible. I also understand the struggles of the algorithm and why jazza makes some decisions some times. But man, when he paints, wherever and whatever, it is just a joy to watch.
Easy: Just draw a traveling salesman of farming and construction tools and the like. That's your authentic ninja from history, most likely. You don't blend in by wearing a kabuki stagehand costume that can be seen from 10 miles away. You blend in by, well, actually blending in.
It's one of the things that makes me kind of laugh about the female character in the AC game. They talk about how she can "blend in with the populace", while she's carrying a sword across her back. That would IMMEDIATELY make her stand out.
This was such a cool video, although I always loved the Japanese setting and was really excited to see when it comes out, I am truly amazed how you depicted both characters in such an awesome way.
TH-cam tried to hide this from me, but I LOVED this!!! Your depictions of characters from fiction and history are so amazing! And I love seeing you learn a new skill, it’s super inspiring!
Great to see this art. This is the kind of thing I started following this channel for years ago. So much better than all the gimmicks and shenanigans. Just good art. Love it.
Just want to say thank you for doing the research. I used to be viewer for you but dropped your channel when sponsor stuff got more aggressive and you started to "game" with thumbnails&titles more. But was so happy to watch Metatron to react to this video. I was expecting you to either draw fantasy armor or that theater attire but i am glad with me predicting wrong. I wonder if you consulted your brother or consumed youtube & other history content. But whatever you did - you did good job. Also these art pieces look incredible! Thank you for spreading closer to correct information onwards! I hope this video inspires and enlightens others ^^
I really want to see a storytelling video with your illustrations as a medium to tell the story. Something like what Thoughty2 does but with your own art! I'm sure it'll turn out epic just like these illustrations and we'll all love it!!
This is a VERY paraphrased summary of japanese/samurai armor. It actually varied WILDLY across the several centuries that the samurai were active prior to the Meiji revolution.
Great subtle perspective on that first pic. I have always admired Jack Kirby and his more extreme perspectives but appreciate other styles. Thanks for the great content.
This is an actually very pleasant Jazza video. Not to bombastic, simple, just him drawing and rendering a good set of pieces. Feels a bit closer to why i originally came to this channel, I really liked this video.
I don't know if this is true but my favorite factoid about ninjas is that the way we depict them in media is actually due to Kabuki. During Kabuki shows, they would have stage hands dressed in black to blend in with the background, move stuff around, assist with special effects and the like (like that one old video on youtube of the two guys fighting with a dozen guys floating them around). You'd probably condition yourself to ignore them as they moved around the stage. Apparently whenever a ninja showed up in the story, the actor would dress up as a stage hand and pretend to be one until their part started, where they'd suddenly jump out to assassinate someone. Sort of using the kayfabe to surprise the viewer.
Jazza! You drew the chest clothing the wrong way! It needs to fold and create a "y" shape, but yours has it flipped (the "y" is for people alive and the reverse is for when you're dead)
Say, you've caught my attention with this, since I'm a stickler for accuracy when using historical reference, but I don't quite understand what you mean. Could you please elaborate some more? I have a character with layered leather armor based on the samurai n' I'm intrigued.
@Sweetroll_Wolfie yes of course! What i mean is when you look at a person from the front, if you were to draw the shirt/kimono, you would need to create a "y", with the right line being shorter/cut by the left side, and not the opposite. The clothing on our "right side" (the person's left side) needs to be placed on top of the other, because if you do the opposite, it is how they dress up their dead people. I learned this in a TH-cam video, if I can find it I'll reply with the link Btw sorry for my English, I'm a French speaker
@@Sweetroll_WolfieWhen you wear traditional japanese clothing, you wrap it so that it's easy for a right-handed person to put something inside their clothing, if that makes sense. A lot of manga has been mirrored when translated since they are read from right to left in japanese, so many get their kimono refrences the wrong way. 😊
Came here to write this. Also, by copying and mirroring the row of samurai in the back of the seppuku, it makes the samurai at the left hand side of the picture hold their weapon left hand at the top, which is incorrect.
Jazz’s I’ve always loved your content. I’ve been totally inspired not only in my art but also in my life, for this thank you so much for your hardwork and dedication to your channel. I think an amazing idea would be to create the armor itself or a sculpture or a Samaria
We are currently in Japan and today we went to a ninja village and learned the way of the ninja and I thought it was so cool that you posted this video today the same day we went to the ninja village! Thanks for showing me how ninjas actually looked like Jazza
I could sense that you spent more time on each drawings and it really pays off ! The results are amazing and the storytelling on point, as always! What I was getting disappointed about before with the videos is that you were putting quantity over quality and it wasn't as exciting... Great job jazza! More videos like this please ! 💪
I like the historical facts and research gone into the art. Not only is the artwork amazing but its really interesting to hear about the backstory of the art.
I can tell that Jazza illustrates everything himself up to the point of the "final polish", then the design completely changes. Who is that artist and why aren't they credited?
As someone practicing kendo, "the way of the sword", it was so fun watching you draw historically accurate samurai and using all the names that we still use for our kendo equipment/armor!
Making a few conical hats has taught me that a hat with a shallower angle can be much more practical than a hat with a more sharply sloping angle, like those depicted in the Assassin's Creed Shadows Trailer. You're trying to keep the rain and sun off of your face, neck and shoulders, while trying to be as efficient as possible in making the hat for when you need it. A shallower hat angle gives more practical applications when traveling and for storing the hat on your shoulders.
Obviously, a good amount of research went into this samurai drawing and I appreciate that. Just one little gripe. The samurai warriors holding the swords in the first drawing...that's not how Japanese swords tend to be held. The hands are usually further apart so that the whole length of the handle is utilised. The samurai acting as Nobunaga's second would especially be holding his sword correctly as he is about to use it. Its small, its picky but it bugged me enough to mention it.
Idk. I think Shad would probably too honest for sponsors. Great for the armor, but the actual history part, probably wouldn't match what Ubisoft wants Jazza to say....

@grrman It's a freaking video game, quit it.
@@grrman what's wrong with it?
It's always things like Pirates, Ninjas, and Samurais that I feel like get a complete redesign after going through Hollywood
In the 2000s there was also a comic book titled Pirates vs Ninjas.
Most of the redesign was done in theaters especially in the case of ninjas
I think we need a realistic pirates video next
Don’t forget about the vikings too. Tho if we’re being technical, they’d be considered pirates.

similar to the Vietcong, I did not know that but I guess it makes sense
Shinobi also used the most modern tools they could get their hands on, so they would have used firearms too if they got a hold of them.
I know this is just a sponsored video, and I don't know if it's just a one time thing. But I want to see this concept for other groups like knights, pirates, and vikings.
Me too! :) especially Vikings

Fun fact: many of the ninja weapons were just farming tools. Since most of the Shinobi were just working class people while the samurai were mostly noble.

Okay but that is literally SO cool!!!
Your explanation of seppuku while trying to remain vague enough so that you don't get flagged by youtube as me rolling 😂😂
On a side note, it's important to note that seppuku is usually performed by a Japanese warrior as an "honorary death."
I love that kind of video, great job!

Love the combo of history and your art...superb
Most ninjas usually were farmers which is a reason why so many ninja “weapons” were tools like scythes.
Loved watching Metatron's response video. I'll love studying yours, Jazza.
The unpredictability of TH-cam algorithm is a tragedy, but the attempts to circumvent the cencorship are a piece of art themselves.
Obviously, a good amount of research went into this samurai drawing and I appreciate that. Just one little gripe. The samurai warriors holding the swords in the first drawing...that's not how Japanese swords tend to be held. The hands are usually further apart so that the whole length of the handle is utilised. The samurai acting as Nobunaga's second would especially be holding his sword correctly as he is about to use it. Its small, its picky but it bugged me enough to mention it.

Hey Jazza you should check out Metatron’s breakdown of this video not to spoil it for you but he loved it!
Getting sponsored by Assasines Creed is a flex ngl
Also everything you do it amazing
Jazza, for the next “drawing historical warriors” video, you should draw the order of the assassins themselves.
