they actually did a vagabond chapter where musashis doing the exact same thing after a fight. its insane how far back mcdonalds goes in japanese culture
It's true I looked it up, apparently before his fight with Sasaki Kojirou he stopped at the nearest McDonald's to replenish his health and that's the reason he won in the first place
Miyamoto Musashi loves McDonald's burger. Got it! Never learned that from history, but we all trust Japaneat. He's always telling the truth 100%, right? 😂
Theres this burger place near Seattle thats called Katsu Burger. Theyre japanese inspired. The patties are even breaded and deep fried. Theres all these cool Japanese style french fries too. Its pretty great
It's actually not true, as according to one renown book of history of Japan, Miyamoto Musashi used to visited KFC after his training. The one who visited McDonalds after samurai training are, none other, the Shogun Tokugawa Ieyasu himself
I ate this burger a lot when I stayed in Japan. It's a bit bigger than a double cheeseburger and not as messy as big mac. The sauce is also very delicious.
Well those big crazy onions you like so much are the slivered onions that are used on the Quarter Pounder and also the McRib when they have it.. the tiny onions on the Big Mac and other burgers are rehydrated dehydrated onions. I am one of the people that preps all that fun stuff for all you hungry people.. for now but hopefully not much longer. If you ever want the bigger fresher onions on anything at Mickey's D just ask to sub or add slivered onions.
The solitary life of Miyamoto Musashi required a trip to a busy McDonald’s every time this iconic burger was offered. Seems legit. A true samurai saint.
I hate fact that since I work at McDonalds now I recognise stuff just by look. (the meat is just two regular 4:1, bigger will be only maestro ones. Bun is laced with potato flakes, and onions are cut with the same machine that cuts our fresh tomatoes so they are so weirdly thicc compared to neatly cut white/red onions that we get chopped already in bags)
As an absolute fan of Musashi a vision of him just munching on a burger after beating a person to death with a stick just using one blow makes me die of laughter
My favorite arc in Shingeki no Kyojin was when Eren Jaeger started the rumbling and had millions of Colossal Titans journey across the lands to bring him the most rare and exclusive McDonald's items from around the world
This video was really good. Loved the presentation. Niftski's current 4:54.6 is INSANE and I'm glad I caught it first day it was released on TH-cam (unfortunately I can rarely watch the streams due to college, work, timezones, etc.) We're living SMB history!!
10 Years ago i ordered a Samurai burger at McDonalds in KL. It had a single patty drenched in teriyaki sauce, lettuce and mayo and was amazing, i wish they'd bring it too Australia.
Yoooo! McD’s Samurai Pork Burger is such a cash cow in Thailand’s branches! What we get here is actually a teriyaki pork burger with lettuce and semi-sweet mayo. It’s actually really nice and it’s a Thailand McD thing. Usually don’t see it anywhere else…well, under the same name, at least.
fun fact they made a (japanese iirc) mcdonalds training game/software for the nds or dsi. some legend a while back tracked down a copy and now it lives in forever on the internet.
The difference between ground floor and 1st floor was because of horses and their poop. There was so much poop that no one wanted to be on the ground level, which they left for their horses and other stuff. The 1st floor was elevated off the ground and is the first floor for humans.
One of the best burgers I’ve ever had was from a McDonalds in Japan. It was a promotional burger for the World Cup in 2014. They had burgers for all the major teams. The burger I had was the Brazil Burger and oh my lord it was heaven. No clue what was on it/in it but I haven’t looked at any burger the same since.
funny tangent about the cashier console looking like a DS menu, there actually was a McDonalds training application for the DS exclusive to Japan, so that similarity might not be entirely by accident.
As a European that is always so confusing depending what country you're in. The bottom floor is the ground floor. And you number the floors that are added. So it's ground floor (think of this as 0 floor), first floor, second floor, etc.
Round 1, the samurai Mac... brings back memories of my last vacation. I'd love to hear your story about how you ended up in Japan man. Not sure if you've already put out a voice over about that topic in a video, but if you haven't, might be a good talking point in your next post :)
My Favorite Magic Knight Rayearth reference is when Umi is lamenting not being able to access McDonald's anymore when they're on another world *partial joke here
Yeah, Mushashi made over 1000 references to McD's in his Book of the 5 Rings, specifically extoling the dietary benefits of onion rings to a samurai's warrior spirit. The titular 5 rings specifically refers to 5 styles of onion rings he encountered in his journeys across Japan, likely a result of lax franchising laws during the time.
The Samurai Mac is actually not limited time at all, it's permanently on the menu now. I think it used to be limited time, but it was so popular they just kept it around.
Samurai champloo is a mood of its own. Compared to cowboy bebop depression, it has its depressing moments but way more hopeful and ends in a mellow but ultimately positive way.
as someone who has worked at an american mcdonalds, the register ui is the exact same as american ones, with the only real ui changes being text and the pngs on the buttons
My favorite Samurai Champloo episode is where the gang goes to get McDonald’s and runs into Miyamoto
Musashi eating pounds of burgers with onions
Some bird then swoops down and steals Fuu's big mac they were supposed to split between the three of them outta her hands
The hidden ova episode that few people know about XD. Love the part where
they actually did a vagabond chapter where musashis doing the exact same thing after a fight. its insane how far back mcdonalds goes in japanese culture
Is this the episode where they trade Fuus virginity for one mcdumpling burger
Yeah then Foo yells “100 nuggies” and Mugan kills everyone
Musashi was known to be able to fix the ice cream machine with a single slash of his sword. Truly a master of McKendo.
🤣🤣 loved this
😂Woooooooooow! That had me rolling!😂
I heard he invented the McRib with his McKenJutsu.
omgs 😂😂😂😂😂
😂😂😂😂
It's true I looked it up, apparently before his fight with Sasaki Kojirou he stopped at the nearest McDonald's to replenish his health and that's the reason he won in the first place
This is what i want to read
Kojiro pissed that by the time Musashi arrived the McFlurry he promised to pick up had melted.
It kills me that the manga was never finished.
@@sttyxx6270??? Not everything about Japan is an anime/manga reference you weirdo
@@Shortokeikiong wtf
Fun fact : the legendary battle between Musashi and Kojiro was for the last french fry. Ronald McDonald himself was the judge during the epic battle
Miyamoto Musashi loves McDonald's burger. Got it!
Never learned that from history, but we all trust Japaneat. He's always telling the truth 100%, right? 😂
Right
He HAS been in Japan for 80 years. He knows his stuff 😂😂
It's true, if you read the manga Vagabond you can find out more about it.
Is that an actual manga, sounds dope as hell
@@name-qd9eyyea its ab a sworsman learning how to fight and become at peace with himself
I need to stop watching these at 2am, dammit Im hungry
Tempted to drive to McDonald's right now 😂
They’re gross honestly - only the Shaka Shaka and red nuggets are great
5am and i'm fucking starving now
Bruh, I'm starving, it's 3am, and I made the same mistake of watching it suddenly despite knowing how hungry I am
Same xD
The samurai champloo ending just adds to this experience
1ST
Shiki no Uta (feat. Minmi) - Nujabes
Ah yes, I’ve heard tales of the legendary Miyamoto Musashi and his noble quest to to find the best fast food burger in ancient Japan.
He should've just waited for this.
With an oar!
A sweet soysauce sauce sauce 😂
Lmaoo glad im not going crazy
Japaneat definitely has the sauce.
Sauce clearly sourced from Aperture Science.
I also heard that he committed a McSeppuku in his final moments. I dunno
How much for the McSeppuku? Heard it was a popular option in Japan
Right after the McWarCrimes in McChina
He died of old age and most likely a sickness of some sort after he finished writing dokkōdō
Ha! 🤣
- Ronald McDonald
Theres this burger place near Seattle thats called Katsu Burger. Theyre japanese inspired. The patties are even breaded and deep fried. Theres all these cool Japanese style french fries too. Its pretty great
Doesnt Katsu mean "butt"?
@@battlesheep2552 Don't know about that, but it definitely also means "pork" (think katsudon, katsucurry, tonkatsu).
Not quite. Katsu is breaded + deepfried
@@toughmochi2997 Ah ok, it was the cooking method, my bad :)
@@Ginatuston is pork. Katsu is from the word cutlet.
Shiki no Uta 🎶🌻💚
Love that song such vibe honestly the whole show is.😊😊
yass
The Shiki No Uta in the bg floods my soul with nostalgia. Also, may Nujabes rest in peace
Those are straight up the onions they used to put on the McRibs here in Canada. MAN I LOVED THOSE
samurai champloo ost on samurai burger. i see what ya did there
I guess Musashi spent a little too long with Saber Alter to be the Burger Samurai in Japan lol
I dont think saber alter existed in at the same time as musashi because no two saber summons are in one holy grail war at the same time
@@BansheeN0rn Yeah, but you could get rogue servants in the mix
the dsi reference is so relatable
I had to look it up. I remember the DS, DS Lite, 3DS but not DSI apparently
So fkn relatable i wanna find my ds so bad just to hear the old shit i used to say💀💀
Frrr as a kid I recorded an entire song into mine and my sister deleted it years later 😃💀
@@wokcentral1sameeeee 😂
Musashi was such a legend, he adopted children just to train them in order to work at their local McDonalds.
Could not have picked more fitting music. Burger looks amazing, and thanks for the history lesson as always!
Shiki no Uta..!! One of my fave songs from samurai champloo.. My man's rockin Nujabes again.. Rest in beats Seba..
I love that you use Nujabes music 😊 in some of your videos 😊

Lol @ the Miyamoto Reference! Good Job Japan Eats, thanks for the laugh!
I love your commentary for every short. It’s what keeps me coming back 😂
Love the Samurai Champloo ost, It's a bop

It has to be true because Musashi was a dual wielding swordsman so they had to give him a patty for each sword
Miamoto never lossed a duel or miss a meal
Ngl you had me in the first half with that Miyamoto Musashi bit
I had one in Thailand a few years ago, I don't remember it very much, yours looks better
Love that Champloo soundtrack its a timeless classic.
Agree, this is definitely the best Mac burger.
Ubisoft is definitely taking their samurai lore knowledge from this guy lol
That cash register looked like one of those Vintage Mcdonalds Cash Register Toys i used to play with as a kid 😂😂
The solitary life of Miyamoto Musashi required a trip to a busy McDonald’s every time this iconic burger was offered. Seems legit. A true samurai saint.
Holy early. Also Musashi reminds me of the Baki anime. Awesome details
Love the samurai champloo music in the background
samurai champloo music so good. love your vids stop making me hungi
I hate fact that since I work at McDonalds now I recognise stuff just by look.

THAT LAST BIT!!! 😂😂😂
We call it the ground floor in Australia. I think they call it the ground floor in the UK too.
I worked at McDonald's in Texas from 2008 to 2012. Happy to see the way workers ring up orders on the register hasnt changed in a decade
Obsessed with you using Champloo in the background 🥰
As an absolute fan of Musashi a vision of him just munching on a burger after beating a person to death with a stick just using one blow makes me die of laughter
Musashi's journeys are legendary. He was a boundry pusher, wearing a tight crop top yet wielding a giant oar on the left and his katana on the right
That Samurai jack song is my favorite 🔥
I honestly like when he talks about burgers their delicious

For some strange reason, all I got out of "Samurai Burger" was a sudden desire to become either a spirit channeler or a defense lawyer.
Best background music in all this channels videos

That Musashi bit almost sounds like something out of Gintama 😂
Dude, the background music, i can't believe you did it. You are a genius! :D
To be honest. Samurai Champloo is probably my favorite anime of all time. You have some serious class using a remixed OST. Sheathes off to you sir.
The best scene in Vagabond is when he has to fight 6 guys in McDonald's and Musashi cut the perfect fry creating the fry standard still used today.
I remember when Musashi & Pickle went to McDonalds in Baki, fav episode
Japan's outburgered america so hard that the samurai mac makes its ways to Malaysia every year without fail
Singapore too.
Seems like an Asian version of the Rodeo Burger (onion rings and barbecue)
I love how the cheese looks less fake at a Japanese McDonald's.
samurai champloo soundtrack was also his fav song to dine 🍔 to
fun fact they made a (japanese iirc) mcdonalds training game/software for the nds or dsi. some legend a while back tracked down a copy and now it lives in forever on the internet.
Perfect music choice 👌
This unexpected song choice hit hard maaan, why do you have to do that to me
The voice recording app reference was absolutely perfect, nothing could describe it better
The only thing Japanese fast food trends have taught me is that there would definitely be a McAllmight under the appropriate circumstances.
I really want to eat that burger
The 4x sauce tripped me up real good
The comment section going with the bit is the gem for my day 😭
Yes stacking burgers and fries to make it look stacked and crunchy.
Bro I dig that back story to Miyamoto Musashi,I fk with onions tough both my grandmothers used onions alot in their recipes
Omg when our mcd have the burger samurai back, our local mcd was PACKED, I absolutely love samurai burger
The difference between ground floor and 1st floor was because of horses and their poop. There was so much poop that no one wanted to be on the ground level, which they left for their horses and other stuff. The 1st floor was elevated off the ground and is the first floor for humans.
"Super thick onions"
*shows normal sliced onions*
This burger is soooo good. I had it a couple of times in Tokyo. I wish they had it in the UK.

I have my doubts that any samurai went to McDonald's, but on the other hand it's safe to believe everything you hear
I love your super hilarious bored voice commentary 😂😂😂
It's true. In the early 1600's there was a McDonald's just down the road from the East India Company trading storehouse.
So dedicated! I’m impressed with the amount
Of research you must have done to have
Gotten that information!
I bet it was exhausting.
My Favorite Magic Knight Rayearth reference is when Umi is lamenting not being able to access McDonald's anymore when they're on another world *partial joke here
First thing I said was "Phwoar, look at those onions".. Then you pointed out how unusual the onions were lol. I really want that burger right now!
@@LT-dn7mt In the UK.. Never seen fried onions at McDonald's in 40 years lol
Great song! Definitely my fav anime, samurai champloo is so slept on

So disappointed that Puppet History didn't include such an important part of Miyamoto Musashi's story!
That Sumurai story is correct , I can vouch 😂
Had it when I was in Japan last month. Prob my favorite burger at McDonald’s, though I’m not much of a fast food person.
For a McDonald's burger this actually looks like real food. Neat.
Samurai champloo is a mood of its own. Compared to cowboy bebop depression, it has its depressing moments but way more hopeful and ends in a mellow but ultimately positive way.
Love how hyped Bobby got when Rudy said she’s been playing stardew valley
Thank you for your groundbreaking work into burgers in Sengoku era Japan
as someone who has worked at an american mcdonalds, the register ui is the exact same as american ones, with the only real ui changes being text and the pngs on the buttons
Love ‘Shiki No Uta’ playing in the background. That song lives rent free in my head.
Fries on the burger like a true champion 👍🏻
