You have missed the legendary Shimazu's "Forward retreat", where his remaining 300 men charged straight into Tokugawa's army. Large number of soldiers on eastern army became scared of Shimazu soldiers that they just let them go through.
@@majormarketing6552 Actually, that's EXACTLY what happened; Shimazu's soldiers BROKE THROUGH encirclement, thpough at the cost of most of their men and Shimazu Toyohisa.
Well Mitsunari wanted Hideaki executed for his failure in Korea. Ieyasu intervened against his execution . This changed the course of history at Sekigahara
@@chrisanduncensoredjapan6627 Yes, thanks for mentioning. Hideaki avenged his honour since he was stripped of his lands by Toyotomi Hideyoshi following Mitsunari's libel for his "rash" actions in Korea. A well deserved revenge if I may say.
I honestly paused after the Footmouse bit and I was like: 'Surely they cant be serious? I mean... yeah I guess one could click with one's big toe aswell... but... what about actual control, hand-eye coordination etc. This is either a joke or a VERY stupid product.' I literally looked in the comments for a minute or two before I continued and saw it was actually an advert for Raid Shadow Legends. Oh History Marche! Should have done this April 1st! XD
Yes! Thank you for this video! Some facts: -Otani Yoshitsugu is thought to have had a skin disease, most probably was a leper, and still was present in the battle. -The shimazu didn't retreat to mt Tengu, they charged directly into the Tokugawa position, punctured through and escaped through the other side. Shimazu Yoshihiro's nephew, Toyohisa, died in the charge. -Hideaki hated Mitsunari since the Imjin war, when his efforts and his bravery in battle were ignored by Mitsunari which led to him being sanctioned by his uncle, Toyotomi Hideyoshi. That's where the grudge came from. Tokugawa defended Hideaki before Hideyoshi. That was the favour Hideaki owed Ieyasu.
In fact, the "Eastern Army" and the "Western Army" were just how the historians addressed for the factions of pro-Tokugawa and anti-Tokugawa (not necessarily recognizing Ishida Mitsunari as the supreme leader) later. In reality, you could hardly assure which daimyo is truly loyal (or disloyal) to your side. Most of them was just like "sit-and-watch by a moment, then join the side which looked more likely to win, and then probably switch side again later if necessary". It's a very, very complicated situation in obscurity among the 250-300 daimyos involved in such a huge civil war - both Tokugawa Ieyasu and Ishida Mitsunari had been writing a great number of letters to communicate with many of the other daimyos during the AD 1600 Sekigahara Campaign. So the entire war wasn't just a military competition, but also the political competition for procuring allegiance from daimyos as many as possible. Note that who initially joined Ieyasu's eastern expedition against Uesugi was not certainly Ieyasu's ally - the most famous daimyo who turned back at this stage was Sanada Masayuki, who broke with Ieyasu and fended off the 38,000-strong "Eastern Army" (actually largely composed of Tokugawa's troops, unlike the troops sent for westward via the coastal route) 's onslaught on his homebase Ueda Castle for a while, effectively delayed Tokugawa Hidetada (Ieyasu's son and heir)'s march towards Sekigahara to reunite with his father's coalition army, depriving Ieyasu of the invaluable reinforcement which would play the key role in the engagement. Yes, it's "coalition" and around 60% of the "Eastern Army" gathering at Sekigahara wasn't commanded by Ieyasu or the Tokugawa retainers - only that 30,000-strong reserve troops belongs to the Tokugawa Clan, along with his direct retainer Il Naomasa's troops, the rest was largely the retainers "enjoyed the favor of Toyotomi Hideyoshi" (either relatives or close retainers with fief granted) who still possessed independent command over their force despite of their recognition to Ieyasu's overall leadership. In addition, I disagree with the concept about Ishida Mitsunari's side being called "loyalists" - indeed, the Toyotomi Clan at Osaka never openly supported Mitsunari albeit acting favorably towards Mitsunari and his allies. Mitsunari desperately urged Toyotomi Hideyori (or said, his mother, Yodo-dono) to give him a gesture of "official support" (for example, Hideyori showed himself at the camp of the Western Army to declare the Toyotomi Clan's stance clearly) so that Ieyasu would become "a de facto traitor" the Western Army could fully capitalize on. However, the fact that Osaka (Toyotomi) actually remained neutral and supported neither side made the nature of the entire war far different from our popular, stereotyped concept that Ieyasu and his allies were the "rebel" who betrayed Toyotomi while Mitsunari and his allies were the "loyalist" who defended the authority of Toyotomi (that made people laughing, what authority could a 8-year-old child have without any "direct retainer" powerful enough to back him up ? Maybe Maeda Toshiie could "back him up", but he had been dead in AD 1599. And his mother Yodo-dono's political influence was basically confined of Osaka). Indeed, both Ieyasu and Mitsunari claimed that their side was the true loyalist while the counterpart was the treacherous who just fought for usurpation of power. And most importantly, the Toyotomi Clan never expressed stance in this matter, so the Sekigahara Campaign was actually "the civil war between the retainers of Toyotomi Hideyori". Also note that Ishida Mitsunari was never the effective supreme leader of the Western Army, unlike Tokugawa Ieyasu of the Eastern Army, since his prestige and military power (with just around 193,000-koku domain which was far less than Ieyasu's over 2,000,000-koku) was so weak in comparison with many major daimyos - that's why he asked the more powerful Mori Clan's leader Mori Terumoto nominally takeover the position of the "commander-in-chief" as a method to attract more daimyos of the Western Japan join his side. I have even more want to utter, but let me halt here and leave to your thought.
Very interesting information indeed. My impression by reading about the battle was similar, it was obvious that both Mitsunari and Tokugawa claimed that they fought in the name of the "Taiko" and his son.
I recommend to watch the series in netlix called “Age of samurai: Battle for Japan” story is about the japan famous Unifiers starting from Oda nobunaga until tokugawa Ieyasu, if youre still longing after the Shogun series.
@@nomooon the forward retreat isnt featured indeed, but the entire Mori army sitting nearby and doing nothing is actually mentioned. However from what i've read it wasn't exactly a forward retreat, he circled behind mount Tengu and reached the Mori position.
Tokugawa Hidetada was delayed to aid his father by foolishly trying to take the Ueda castle, controlled by the Sanada clan, while on the way. The Sanada were known for their tactical acumen, and held off Hidetada's much larger force.
One of my favorite historical battles, thanks to Kessen as a child. To subvert one's enemy before the battle begins and to turn their own allies against them. It is a thing of beauty.
Kessen is such an amazing game. That cinematic focus the game took, somebody needs to make a current day game like that, the photo realistic graphics would be the missing piece kessen didn't have at the time, would be a masterpiece.
This battle always reminds me of the speech by Robert Baratheon in GoT S1. "Which is bigger, five or one". Mitsunari's coalition never stood a chance against the united fist of Tokugawa.
The battle could have easily went the other way So saying that they never stood a chance when literally one of the three commanders, that didn't engage, engaged would have resulted in the loyalist forces victory
mitsunari would have won if mori terumoto or yodo-dono who at osaka at the time, bring young hideyori into the battle. the toyotomi at osaka still thinks that this are the fights between toyotomi's vassals. the truth is mitsunari is fight on the survivals of toyotomi's
Thank you very much. Yep, doing OK during this crazy time. Thank you for asking. I hope you and yours are also OK and that the lockdown isn't too severe where you live.
I first learned about Sekigahara and preceeding Battles of this era by playing the original Kessen on the PS2. As a young lad that game sparked a deep interest in me to research Japanese History. Great Video as always HM.
What I love about this channel is the ability to expand into the ideology, personal background, reasoning and details of its chosen battles/people. This video lacks what you usually excel at, and I don’t understand why. Furthermore, the Sengoku period can be a pool of perfect content for this channel; it’s a shame you introduced it with it’s final battle.
Oh boy, it's been a while since someone talked about the Japanese. Isn't it kinda ironic that the "loyalist" side of this conflict had 2 generals ignoring their orders to attack and a third one changing sides completely?
It begs the question though, loyal to what ? We all know if we've read the history of Japan at that time, that this 'loyalty' to the forces of the regent, succeeded by the council of regents, were built on very shaky foundations. Not just militarily or socially , but very much culturally.
It's not ironic, both sides were Toyotomi loyalists, they were fighting over the regency of the young Hideyori. Ishida Mitsunari wasn't their lord, he was just the guy at the head of the anti-Ieyasu faction. His problem was that he was a glorified desk clerk among a bunch of battle-hardened warriors who didn't respect him.
@@Seraphil1 Saying that Ieyasu would be a Toyotomi loyalist is quite a bit of a stretch Given that it is Ieyasu who would later wipe out the Toyotomi clan and kill both Hideyoshi's son and grandson
The concluding battle of "The Shogun." The Eastern and Western armies combined numbered 200,000 men. A total of 25,000 guns and cannons were deployed, and a fierce battle ensued. There has never been a domestic battle of this scale in Japanese history. We would love to see this battle dramatized.
Just finished the book "Shogun" by James Clavell and would highly recommend it to anyone interested in Japan in this period. It's a really intriguing fictionalized story, although it's based on the actual events of the time.
The Shimazu clan was the fox of Japan. They chose their battles well. Their clan was among the oldest and that maintained its territory in Satsuma to the end and even survived the fall of the shogunate as they were the ones that led the imperial forces against shogunate loyalists. Tokugawa clan was really lucky to reach such heights given that they were a cadet branch of the extinct Imagawa clan that Oda Nobunaga defeated. GREAT WORK though.
Another fact is that Naomasa Ii's Red Devils were inspired by Masakage Yamagata, one of Shingen's top generals for whom he donned the red armour from the Furinkazan, the Takeda's banner "as fierce as fire". Sadly, he and all other generals were killed at Nagashino
Coming here right after finishing Shogun with Hiroyuki Sanada. An absolute masterpiece and this amazing video provides the best conclusion on a epic show. Thank you!

I love that yall be interested in showing us this part history but its so many more battles in this period that deserve its own playlist but aye oh well low key learning to do this myself 😁
Can't understand how the western army could have lost. Look how well their amazing cavalry backs uphill while staying in formation. Such masterful horsemanship could not possibly be defeated.
20：09 The Battle of Sekigahara in 1600 brought an end to the Sengoku period. It is not completely right. Although Tokugawa Ieyasu built Tokugawa Shogunate in 1603, Toyotomi Hideyori （豊臣秀頼）, the young son of Toyotomi Hideyoshi （豊臣秀吉）, who resumed his father's title of Kampuku, is still a potential rival of Ieyasu. (Ieyasu is one of the five regents assigned by Hideyoshi to overlook Hideyori) So in 1614, Ieyasu found a excuse, and waged a war against Hideyori, beseiged the Osaka Castle, and forced Hideyori and his mother to commit suicide.
I love your content, and love watching videos about this battle. I will say as a minor complaint that the locations of some of the castles like Gifu and Ogaki seem a little bit off, but I suppose for legibility that might have been a necessary change. I live in Ogaki myself so I like to visit the sites of all of these battles, and the one for Sekigahara is worth checking out to get a feel for the scale of things! Keep up the great work!
6:32 I hate it when that happens. My neighbor just sent me a letter containing 13 accusations and condemnations 2 days ago. Because apparently I had taken too long to shovel my snow. So I laid siege to his garage, which contains his liquor supply. Without it, he is useless. I expect him to commit Sudoku any day now.
on the right flank of tokugawa are kuroda nagamasa, kato yoshiaki and hosokawa tadaoki VS ishida left flank who consist of ishida's own troops. in the center of tokugawa are fukushima masanori (vanguard) , li naomasa and some minor lords VS ishida center, Ukita Hideie, shimazu yoshihiro, konishi yukinaga. on the left flank of leyasu are todou takatora and some minor lords VS ishida's right flank, otani yoshitsugu and kobayakawa hideaki. when kobayakawa hideaki switch side, his charges do not do any significant damage into otani's, but because otani's also facing new push by todo takatora and the others, otani's troops weaken and begin to routs
That's right. Anyway, the charge of Kobayakawa Hideaki didn't di significant damage immediately as Otani Yoshitsugu was prepared for his sneaky move. However, he couldn't hold them much longer as Todo takatora was charging in as well. On the other hand, Hideaki force was fresh and with high spirit and the is no way Yoshitsugu can keep them on check for any longer. Moreover, several minor lords switched side with Hideaki made the situation worse.
first of all , i am really starting to like the narator, i was used with Alex's voice, second of all, really nice you are diversefying the locations and history periods, but....hopefully you have not forgoten hannibal, and more ancient history battles will come :D Thanks to all the team involved in HistoryMarche channel!!Great job!
Tokugawa's firearms were supplied by Anjin San, a European named Richard Blackthorn. He was found shipwrecked in Japan but eventually gained the trust of the warlord and rose through the court. He even had an affair with the senior translator and helped Tokugawa escape a hostage situation by being dressed as a woman. - Shogun, a novel by James Clavel, later made into successful tv series.
Incredible how far video games have brought me. Getting interested in other cultures. And teached me history from other countries such as japan and china. Thank you capcom Thank you Koei
Great video! I see parallels between Tokugawa and Hanibal in the second Punic War. Having the respect of your soldiers and allies can make a smaller force much more powerful than a bigger but disorganized foe. I would very much love to see more Sengoku Jidai period videos, so if you have plans to do more, that would be awesome!
me : watching youtube with ad blocker on americans : talking about footmouse ads me : curious ... googles drunk brain : buy it ! my smelly feet : excited girlfriend : * grabs shotgun *
Quite a topical coincidence. I'm playing right now "Nioh" (PS4) which is set in this period. Highly recommended if you like action-RPGs. And a step up from the realistic historical setting is that it has yokai/demons and animal spirit summons added to it.
Nice reenactment of the most crucial battle. As for me, absolutely loved Clavell's book, and thought the 1980 cinematic production stayed closer to the book and was therefore much better than the recent version.

It begs the question though, loyal to what ? We all know if we've read the history of Japan at that time, that this 'loyalty' to the forces of the regent, succeeded by the council of regents, were built on very shaky foundations. Not just militarily or socially , but very much culturally.
It's not ironic, both sides were Toyotomi loyalists, they were fighting over the regency of the young Hideyori. Ishida Mitsunari wasn't their lord, he was just the guy at the head of the anti-Ieyasu faction. His problem was that he was a glorified desk clerk among a bunch of battle-hardened warriors who didn't respect him.
@@Seraphil1 Saying that Ieyasu would be a Toyotomi loyalist is quite a bit of a stretch
Given that it is Ieyasu who would later wipe out the Toyotomi clan and kill both Hideyoshi's son and grandson
The concluding battle of "The Shogun."
The Eastern and Western armies combined numbered 200,000 men. A total of 25,000 guns and cannons were deployed, and a fierce battle ensued. There has never been a domestic battle of this scale in Japanese history. We would love to see this battle dramatized.
AOI Tokugawa
Nonsense, the legend is that Tokugawa Wolololo’d Hideaki’s forces and won
😂
Anybody remember the movie about this? Can't remember the title.
Dang commercial got me.
Hehe, yeah the footmouse is a prank.

Sekigahara
is that a joke?
One of the REALLY decisive battles of history.
Great stuff ! THX HM & Hoc !!
Our pleasure!
Just finished the book "Shogun" by James Clavell and would highly recommend it to anyone interested in Japan in this period. It's a really intriguing fictionalized story, although it's based on the actual events of the time.
Clavell's books are a blast check out the Tai Pan series if you haven't already.
Whirlwind is another fantastic Clavell novel!
A surprise, but a welcome one 🔥🔥🔥
Are you going to cover more of the Sengokou era in the future?
Quite possible.
@@HistoryMarche Please do Okehazama, the battle between Oda Nobunaga and Imagawa Yoshimoto 🙇♀️
Or maybe Toyotomi Invasion of Korea, no one cover that war till today
Tokugawa is that quiet kid in your class.
The Shimazu clan was the fox of Japan. They chose their battles well. Their clan was among the oldest and that maintained its territory in Satsuma to the end and even survived the fall of the shogunate as they were the ones that led the imperial forces against shogunate loyalists. Tokugawa clan was really lucky to reach such heights given that they were a cadet branch of the extinct Imagawa clan that Oda Nobunaga defeated. GREAT WORK though.
Another fact is that Naomasa Ii's Red Devils were inspired by Masakage Yamagata, one of Shingen's top generals for whom he donned the red armour from the Furinkazan, the Takeda's banner "as fierce as fire". Sadly, he and all other generals were killed at Nagashino
Naomasa actually lived through the battle hut suffered an injury that would cause his death 2 years later
Coming here right after finishing Shogun with Hiroyuki Sanada. An absolute masterpiece and this amazing video provides the best conclusion on a epic show. Thank you!
this is the best history channel on youtube that i know.
thank u guys.
i can only applaud 👏👏👏
Thank you kindly.
@@HistoryMarche keep up the good work 🙏
yall saving us during this quarantine
Not only the best collaboration in youtube, but it is equally amazing how fast you upload quality contents... I am always expecting something from you at the end of every week. Keep up the good work and lets not slow that pace
Wow, thank you!
that was one of the greatest advertisements on TH-cam i've ever seen, arguably rivaling Internet Historian's
thank you i need to learn this for histroy in my class thank you so much❤❤❤❤🥰🥰🥰🥰
I have been waiting for that video since I was 17 when I read SHOGUN for the first time, about 20 years ago thank you so much HISTORY MARCHE
Glad you enjoyed it!
I love the sound & graphic of this documentary..MilitaryMarche
Excellent production, as usual. Thank you!
Thank you sir.
While most people are busy making Total war references, here I am adding in the key details of Otani turning into a demon and dark wizards summoning a giant skeleton from all the dead corpses. Clearly, I have played too much Nioh.
ROFL!
Best thing to watch during quarantine 👍🏻💙👋🏻❤️
Loving the new graphics and animations! They're awesome. Great video as always!
Glad you like them! Hoc Est Bellum takes most of the credit in this one. Make sure to check out his channel as well. Link is in the description.
Thank you for the video! It was awesome!
Glad you enjoyed it!
the little rat Hideyaki was assassinated 2 years later by Tokugawa . Everyone knew "once you betrayed then you will do it again" . "I cant keep the traitor dog"
When you realise that raid shadow legends is owned by the largest gambling organisation in America that also makes casino slot machines 🤦♂️ it's so sad to see so many creators promoting this "game".
Great video other than that. Keep it up historymarche!
To be fair, HM has to make money too. TH-cam ads are just not reliable anymore.
Why it's bad ? ... it's different if "Owned by the Cartel". Gambling is legal in America.
Your self-entitlement makes me sick. These ads are creating a source of revenue that would have not existed otherwise. Are you going to put food on the plate of History Marche and the other creators for doing what they love? If not, suck it up and enjoy this video brought to you by Raid Shadow Legends.
@@unlivethesystem8634 sure but is doing what you love really worth cheating others out of their money?
I'm with you, but HM has patreon and you tube and if RAID wants them chances are other sponsors exist too.
Idk, but it's not as clear cut as you make it look.

Thank you Historymarche.
Never was a fan of japanese history but I will watch because it's Historymarche.
Trust me you won't be disappointed
I love that yall be interested in showing us this part history but its so many more battles in this period that deserve its own playlist but aye oh well low key learning to do this myself 😁
Awe thanks for the like hahah
That footmouse-Raid ad had me surprised. Congrats
Holly Sh*t, i just started watching "Drifters" and now this? Talk about a coincidence!
LEAVE YOUR HEAD HERE!
Thank god historymarche exists otherwise this lockdown would be unbearable
Have you considered moving to nature documentary’s your voice is brilliant
Yes! YES!!!! More of this era and country!!! Love u !
There will be more to come.
Hope this channel will have a series about Korea-Japan war in 1598
Oh yes, this is quite possible...
Shhh :)
Can't understand how the western army could have lost. Look how well their amazing cavalry backs uphill while staying in formation. Such masterful horsemanship could not possibly be defeated.
Yes!! Ive been looking forward to another video in the Japan series for ages!
More to come!
Siege of Osaka next? Awesome content as always.
More to come definitely, but it's a secret :)
20：09 The Battle of Sekigahara in 1600 brought an end to the Sengoku period. It is not completely right. Although Tokugawa Ieyasu built Tokugawa Shogunate in 1603, Toyotomi Hideyori （豊臣秀頼）, the young son of Toyotomi Hideyoshi （豊臣秀吉）, who resumed his father's title of Kampuku, is still a potential rival of Ieyasu. (Ieyasu is one of the five regents assigned by Hideyoshi to overlook Hideyori) So in 1614, Ieyasu found a excuse, and waged a war against Hideyori, beseiged the Osaka Castle, and forced Hideyori and his mother to commit suicide.
I played this battle on kessen. Best game wish they'd make a remake of that game.
I love your content, and love watching videos about this battle. I will say as a minor complaint that the locations of some of the castles like Gifu and Ogaki seem a little bit off, but I suppose for legibility that might have been a necessary change. I live in Ogaki myself so I like to visit the sites of all of these battles, and the one for Sekigahara is worth checking out to get a feel for the scale of things!
Keep up the great work!
Thanks for the tips!
I love your content !
Grettings from proud nation of Poland !
Glad you enjoy it!
6:32 I hate it when that happens. My neighbor just sent me a letter containing 13 accusations and condemnations 2 days ago. Because apparently I had taken too long to shovel my snow. So I laid siege to his garage, which contains his liquor supply. Without it, he is useless. I expect him to commit Sudoku any day now.
Great as always Historymarche! Love those collaboration of yours 😃
Thank you KHK! Love to see you come by to check out my videos!
You'll always find me here your videos are masterpiece!
@@KHK001 Hoc Est Bellum actually takes most of the credit here. It was his idea to cover the history of Japan.
Thanks I'll check his videos again too :)
The fake out with foot mouse, from a history video no less, literally had me laugh out loud.
on the right flank of tokugawa are kuroda nagamasa, kato yoshiaki and hosokawa tadaoki VS ishida left flank who consist of ishida's own troops. in the center of tokugawa are fukushima masanori (vanguard) , li naomasa and some minor lords VS ishida center, Ukita Hideie, shimazu yoshihiro, konishi yukinaga.
on the left flank of leyasu are todou takatora and some minor lords VS ishida's right flank, otani yoshitsugu and kobayakawa hideaki. when kobayakawa hideaki switch side, his charges do not do any significant damage into otani's, but because otani's also facing new push by todo takatora and the others, otani's troops weaken and begin to routs
That's right. Anyway, the charge of Kobayakawa Hideaki didn't di significant damage immediately as Otani Yoshitsugu was prepared for his sneaky move. However, he couldn't hold them much longer as Todo takatora was charging in as well. On the other hand, Hideaki force was fresh and with high spirit and the is no way Yoshitsugu can keep them on check for any longer. Moreover, several minor lords switched side with Hideaki made the situation worse.
I knew a lot about this battle. But it seems that I didn't know everything about it. Nice job. This was a fun video.
Can't wait to see this portrayed in the Shogun series. Hope they do justice do this battle!
Shogun (the book at least) ends before the battle of Segihara
Lol
Thank you for making Quarantine a fun and educational time!
Glad you enjoy it!
first of all , i am really starting to like the narator, i was used with Alex's voice, second of all, really nice you are diversefying the locations and history periods, but....hopefully you have not forgoten hannibal, and more ancient history battles will come :D
Thanks to all the team involved in HistoryMarche channel!!Great job!
Thank you for the kind words. As a matter of fact, Hannibal part 9 should be finished in a few days.
Tokugawa's firearms were supplied by Anjin San, a European named Richard Blackthorn.
He was found shipwrecked in Japan but eventually gained the trust of the warlord and rose through the court. He even had an affair with the senior translator and helped Tokugawa escape a hostage situation by being dressed as a woman.
- Shogun, a novel by James Clavel, later made into successful tv series.
After 250 years of rule. Came another turmoil of bloody carnage and mayhem in the form of the meji restoration and the end of the shoguns authority.
Now I want to play samurai warriors again
Shogun 2 Total War is gonna be free to keep on steam from 27 to 1st of may xD
it is
Thats my favorite game next to Rome 2
@@metalmayhem4365 I agree!
already own it so i wish they have some new content also. or maybe announce Shogun 3??? Or even better Empire 2 which includes China+Japan.
TY for this comment!
Incredible how far video games have brought me. Getting interested in other cultures. And teached me history from other countries such as japan and china. Thank you capcom
Thank you Koei
Great job.
Although not so interested in Japanese history but your presentation is fantastic as always
Thank you very much!
Allways fan of your presentation skills and the voice Woau such a nice intro
Great video! I see parallels between Tokugawa and Hanibal in the second Punic War. Having the respect of your soldiers and allies can make a smaller force much more powerful than a bigger but disorganized foe. I would very much love to see more Sengoku Jidai period videos, so if you have plans to do more, that would be awesome!
Been looking forwards to this one!
Wow, 2 commercials before the video actually starts...someone's getting greedy xD
1st ad is fake
Love this channel
Dude I am in love with your voice mate
Great content like always. Continue History March
history marche congratulation on your first japanese video
Cheers 🎉
Wow that's exactly why I love samurai
me : watching youtube with ad blocker on
americans : talking about footmouse ads
me : curious ... googles
drunk brain : buy it !
my smelly feet : excited
girlfriend : * grabs shotgun *
History Marche you got me big time with that foot mouse ad I was about to start looking at reviews thinking you were serious lmao.
Your video is better than Kings and Generals - I’ll give you that
Quite a topical coincidence. I'm playing right now "Nioh" (PS4) which is set in this period. Highly recommended if you like action-RPGs. And a step up from the realistic historical setting is that it has yokai/demons and animal spirit summons added to it.
and Nioh 2 if you like samurai and japanese setting.... and ofc soon to be here Ghost of Tsushima
tbh the only reason i knew about this battle was the game, mad underrrated
Super nice video with effective voice of introducing thanks of clear explaining of events
I watch your channel as I sleep it's so relaxing for me lol idk why, but thank you plz never stop,
Nice reenactment of the most crucial battle. As for me, absolutely loved Clavell's book, and thought the 1980 cinematic production stayed closer to the book and was therefore much better than the recent version.
Bro I watch yo shid like it’s a TV show and it’s blowing my mind lmao
