Yes you're right but we're talking about the Bakumatsu and Seinan War, it was mostly firearms and very little armor, samurai armor can't stop 19th century bullets even a little so it just weighs you down
There wasn’t much need for armor during the Edo period. There were low level conflicts and some peasant revolts, but Japan was largely peaceful and orderly during that period. The Tokugawa bakufu brought much needed stability after literally hundreds of years of war. Crime was dealt with swiftly and harshly, and any signs of revolt or disloyalty by a han could result in their lord being ordered to commit seppuku, the han being abolished and their land being confiscated and taken over by the bakufu or another clan.
@@23Lgirl I know all about it. The Samurai were dismantled by a gnarly army.... and slaughtered by ninjas on the regular reward the later part of their class reign. Protectors of wealthy Japs who owned vast land. Ultimately defeated due to their evil ways.
Samurai didn’t have tattoo they would never do that. Only Famous Japanese criminal gang members and leaders did. Don’t upload nonsense and misrepresent Samurai !
They aren’t samurai we’re only removed as a social class in I believe late 1800s all be it many are colourised photos that were previously black and white but they are all very much real
Long live samurai 1185/ 1868.
Yes
Wow, that is a very long legacy.. long live Japan!
Rewatch The Last Samurai for 20th time..
Those warriors were brave
Sincerly also the beginning had a begining what was it that got fused that it got created just before that era? Or a while before?
Looking at this pictures brings a certain heaviness to me and a feeling of spooky/strange, like something isn't quite right.
Suffered the same fate as the Templar Knights. Betrayed by their own people and political corruption.
Photographs from this period take time to take. It's hard to smile.
The real character of Tom Cruise in the Last Samurai was french
À bon . Ça veu dire que les américains toujours traichent les vérités c est ça?!!
Yes. Jules Brunet I believe
I didn't know that. Thanks 👌🏾
@@JayNomad He was never a samurai.
@@thequeenmidas He was not a real samurai.
these look amazing.
the thing is, this is all heritage armor even when these pictures were taken, even the samurai at the time wore very little armor
In duels, sure. But in battle, any samurai with armour would wear it, as samurai armour is great at stopping arrows.

徳川幕府の平和が、２６０年も続き…上級武士は甲冑の着方を忘れてたそうです。

Sadly many oft these pictures are not actually real samurai and more like modern reenactment and posing for a photo
