If you are after a longer read (900 pages) , Charles S. Terry's translation of Eiji Yoshikawa's book "Musashi" is superb. I think it's slightly fictionalised, but still largely based on Musashi's life story.
I went to Kumamoto to see the museums and such dedicated to Miyamoto Musashi. I saw the variety of swords he owned and they were all big. The cave was amazing as well. I haven’t been up there in years but since it’s about an hour and a half by car I’ll probably go up there again, thanks to this video.
In the novel Musashi from Eiji Yoshikawa. The genius of Takuan was, after he captured the notorious Takezo, instead of bringing him to face justice and punishment, he locked Takezo in the library at the top of a castle for 2 years. Alone with no access to escape, Takezo has nothing else to do but read and consumed all books and scriptures in the library for whole 2 years. By the time Takuan decided to release Takezo from his library-prison. He saw a reformed man. Takezo is now re-born and given name as Musashi from Miyamoto village. Thus the legend begins.
Great story but its a fiction .Takaun never met Musashi, he was close to Yagu Munenori who was the Shoguns sword instructor .Yoshikawa himself stated he could not find anything about the real Musashi as a young man .Aside from the Kojiro duel there is nothing so he wrote a fictional novel about a real person .prior to Yoshikawa's story Musashi was known as a zen master .
I come back to this video every time my bills are due. I go to Walmart, buy a few fake bamboo trees, order a mastersmith Katana from Temu, and head to the backyard. 🌴🗡💨
Greatest "swordsman" in Japan is the correct word. Musashi was more of a Ronin than a samurai and barely fought in any war during that time. He was a swordsman who wandered and challenged many dojo and swordsmen so he can perfect his craft. Samurai is not the word for him.
"Suspicious-you know, like the look on your face right now," Musashi said sharply, abruptly sweeping his finger toward Dampachi. A sharp whistling sound broke the stillness on the plain. Dampachi gasped as Musashi struck. His attention diverted by Musashi's finger, Dampachi never realized that Musashi had drawn his sword. His body rose, flew forward, and landed face down. Dampachi would not rise again. -Musashi, Eiji Yoshikawa
There are some additional interesting aspects of the duel with Sasaki Kojiro. Musashi did not spend the time being late idly. He was carving one of the boat oars into a huge wooden sword. The wooden sword is significantly longer than a traditional Katana. This gave Musashi a reach advantage over Kojiro. Kojiro was enraged by Musashi's tardyness causing him to attack recklessly. Charging at an opponent with a reach advantage is a quick way to defeat.
I truly believe that his defining moment in life was the dokkodo! Throughout all his life through all his battles he truly obtained wisdom as he got older and that’s the point of life……in my spiritual opinion! Yes he was one of the greatest swordsman to ever live but…….to take a life is easy! To learn the spiritual way of life is the true test of one’s self! We all must find the truths in our life looking past our mind and using our soul!🙏☮️
bros life was literally the plot to an anime wtf, also WHAT QUALITY, this was insanely well put together, thats why his life felt like a movie, 10/10 this was prime story telling
No, because "writers" nowadays just ignore sorce material and instead make everything weird and gay, shoving their own real life politics into the game, instead of creating a fun experience. Nobody wants to receive a life lesson from a freak who hasn't actually done anything.

@@MRHEEL-ys2rq That's great. FWIW I used to help run 2 large online book discussion communities, so I could go on at length about must reads and personal favorites in various genres and nationalities.
I heard recently that many of his duels were won because while samurai fought with honor he fought dirty and would think nothing of throwing a knife at a samurai in a duel for example. From modern standards it makes sense to do anything to win a fight but it was unthinkable back then.
Bro, the notificaion bell on the side of the video is so absolutely annoying, made me pause and break immersion several times on the phone, hate it enough to engage in comments about it, good job I guess, also cool video
Musashi was not a “samurai” but rather a nobushi who was ronin by choice. People understandably focus on his many dramatic sword duels though he eventually abandoned the blade and retired to the solitary life of a hermit in pursuit of art and philosophy derived from his life experience as recounted in his Book of Five Rings, which is his ultimate legacy.

Should be made more clear in the title/description that it is not actual history but mostly fictionalised.

Not to mention the whole descriptive sword fighting in battle that is pure fantasy (btw katana is a side arm used as a backup (or for civilian duelling) equivalent to a handgun, not a primary weapon in war where you would usually prefer something with more range). Good storytelling, but nothing to do with history and should not be misunderstood or presented as such.
It’s called a saga I’ve never seen anything historically accurate called a saga or story. The book of five rings however is a unique discretion of how to wage conflict it couples well with the art of war.
In the battle of Sekigahara, the Toyotomi coalition was not led by Hideyori, (as he was only 5 years old, and therefore spared after the loss), but Ishida Mitsunari, a loyal retainer of Hideyoshi.
A pure talent.. A "natural" Instinct, talent, determination.. ego. Does that make him a "savage"? Entering a duel with a Bokken? Arrogant and somewhat mercenary.. I understand the point of “savage skill and determination”.. he owned that. “Pure savage ability”? Yes, pure talent.. A "natural".. Instinct, talent, determination.. ego. Does that make a "savage"? “A pure savage”?? I guess it boils down to semantics.. 👍😎 Be Well!!
Maybe read Prof Alexande C Bennett's book about Musashi as some of the stuff here are based on mythology more than history. Also, the international budo uni in katsuura produced a book about two decades ago containing only the parts of Musashi's life that can be proven by historical records. Bennett's book is probably the most reliable source of info produced in English and has all of Musashi's writings translated.
Mushashi's first fight didn't go that way. He even wrote that he attacked first in a surprise attack (which wasn't very honorable) and ended up killing his opponent who obviously couldn't tell his side of the story. His legend is likely a bit overblown, but that doesn't take away from his eventual greatness. Like many, he has to fake until he made it.
when I first heard in this video that he challenged an adulst samurai when he was only 13 yo .... I was sure that it was a woden swords fight for points most definetly not a real KATANA fight to the death ! as the story progressed and the adult samuray was depicted in the video as holding a real KATANA and the boy a woden one ..... I thought it was a mistake on the anime side of things I was AMAZED at the fact that it was a FIGHT TO THE DEATH kind of challenge that they both agreed to and that the boy showed up with a WODEN KATANA and not only that but he WON ! he was willing to say goodbye to the rest of his life and was willing to bet everything on such small chances INCREDIBLE !
You'd think, after WASTING the two previous leaders of their dojo, they'd come to him, lay their swords on the ground, and BEG HIM to teach them... because their previous masters were punk *** B*thces.
Trust me you wouldn't want to be around him. The reason why he quit at the age 29, was the dead would haunt him day and night. He had to carve stone statues of people in the walls of caves and make smoke offering asking for their forgiveness. Trust me you would not want to be in same room with a guy like that.
what about the time before and after musashi? were there other legendary samurai then? what's the rest of his story? how and when did he die? was he ever beaten? guess i can look it up.
Musashi died of stomach cancer. He never lost. He was trying to find enlightenment through the sword. His last duel used a wooded oar against what was considered the best of the time. It reminded him of his first duel at 13 ish. Both were probably very barbaric kills. He never dueled again. He teach his “Heaven Blade style”. Though he said he never perfected it. Musashi was probably left handed. Which would explain why he was so good at duel wielding. It was pretty much against the law or culture to wear your sword on you right side. Probably had to hide the fact he was left handed. As he aged he wrote the book titled “The 5 Rings”.
Musashi (1584 -1645) is certainly the most famous samurai/ronin to westerners thanks to his philosophy and undefeated records in mostly deathly duels, but he is not really a legendary samurai in the same league as the Sengoku goats samurai. Like one of the most powerful Sengoku warlord, Uesugi Kenshin. Historically (1530 -1578) he was a living legend and called The Dragon of Echigo. Uesugi was believed to be the reincarnation and avatar of Bishamonten. His extraordinary feats and prowess on the battlefields as a military genius, devastating warrior and war hero made his believers worshipped him as Kenshin the "God of War". These are real historical records about him.
Take your pick of any great samurai movie. Seven Samurai to Yojimbo to Lone Wolf and Cub to Zatoichi. Basically every samurai movie is inspired by Musashi: lone wandering samurai defeats clan of other samurai who are defending their clan's name.

Highly underrated comment!
when I first heard in this video that he challenged an adulst samurai when he was only 13 yo .... I was sure that it was a woden swords fight for points
most definetly not a real KATANA fight to the death !
as the story progressed and the adult samuray was depicted in the video as holding a real KATANA and the boy a woden one ..... I thought it was a mistake on the anime side of things
I was AMAZED at the fact that it was a FIGHT TO THE DEATH kind of challenge that they both agreed to and that the boy showed up with a WODEN KATANA and not only that but he WON !
he was willing to say goodbye to the rest of his life and was willing to bet everything on such small chances
INCREDIBLE !
"and so he was hung from a tree for a few days and mocked by this bald guy and that made him a better person"...wow kids were built different then
You'd think, after WASTING the two previous leaders of their dojo, they'd come to him, lay their swords on the ground, and BEG HIM to teach them... because their previous masters were punk *** B*thces.
The video never mentions he wrote a book too The book of 5 rings. Great read

This sounds like ghost of Tsushima story
The last Ronin 😮
They shoulda used this guy as the protagonist i Assassin's Creed Shadows instead of Yasuke.
nah just a side character like Leonardo da Vinci in Ac2, the protagonist* could be someone from Izu, and commanded by Hattori Hanzo
what about the time before and after musashi? were there other legendary samurai then? what's the rest of his story? how and when did he die? was he ever beaten? guess i can look it
up.
Musashi died of stomach cancer. He never lost. He was trying to find enlightenment through the sword. His last duel used a wooded oar against what was considered the best of the time. It reminded him of his first duel at 13 ish. Both were probably very barbaric kills. He never dueled again. He teach his “Heaven Blade style”. Though he said he never perfected it. Musashi was probably left handed. Which would explain why he was so good at duel wielding. It was pretty much against the law or culture to wear your sword on you right side. Probably had to hide the fact he was left handed. As he aged he wrote the book titled “The 5 Rings”.
@@edwardrichard2561 ty for that! learn something new every day.
@@edwardrichard2561He lost his first fight.
Musashi (1584 -1645) is certainly the most famous samurai/ronin to westerners thanks to his philosophy and undefeated records in mostly deathly duels, but he is not really a legendary samurai in the same league as the Sengoku goats samurai.
Like one of the most powerful Sengoku warlord, Uesugi Kenshin. Historically (1530 -1578) he was a living legend and called The Dragon of Echigo. Uesugi was believed to be the reincarnation and avatar of Bishamonten. His extraordinary feats and prowess on the battlefields as a military genius, devastating warrior and war hero made his believers worshipped him as Kenshin the "God of War". These are real historical records about him.
@@snowshock8958 thanks!
This needs a movie.
The 1954 Samurai trilogy is pretty good for that - Mifune is iconic in the role
Take your pick of any great samurai movie. Seven Samurai to Yojimbo to Lone Wolf and Cub to Zatoichi. Basically every samurai movie is inspired by Musashi: lone wandering samurai defeats clan of other samurai who are defending their clan's name.
The title is misleading. Surely his saga didn’t end after he battled the clan. Where is the rest of the story?
