Netflix Yasuke

[Inori]

Should have used a different actor

Ima give this a thumbs up on Netflix but yeah his voice acting leaves much to be desired

I wish they stuck to Yasuke's back story and him serving as a samurai - it felt like there was loads more they could have fleshed out and explored in terms if his relationships with those around him. All the fantasy and magic they threw into this is a load of rubbish.

 

[Chi-Town B]

As soon as I turned on the first episode and saw robots and magic arrows I knew this wasn't telling a real story

 

[Old Man Cain]

As soon as I turned on the first episode and saw robots and magic arrows I knew this wasn't telling a real story

I thought I had picked the wrong series when I saw giant transformers on my screen.

I literally just started and paused after the first 2 min of the show to post this lol.

I’ll continue watching it but the Mechs kinda threw me off, I was expecting some oldskool samurai shit not this ‘Batman Ninja’ type of intro lmao.

 

[browncow]

I like it but yeah they could had called it something else instead of it being based off a real person

 

[The Lonious Monk]

This.

Hopefully, someone does something eventually telling the real story. Also, they ain't have to do my boy Hanzo like that.

lol we ended up watching all the damn eps and - eventhough the story was razor thin - shit was entertaining. Absolutely not as deep layered and well written as it could have been, maybe we’ve been spoiled with Castlevania and - to a lesser extend - Blood of Zeus and just assumed a lot of shit that was never on the table ...

Finished it. Overall it was pretty good

Went into this thinking it was going to just going to be about some samurai warrior. Didn't know they were going to add in supernatural stuff. Still pretty cool though

Had a feeling the mercenary group was going to come back and help out. Wasn't expecting them to go out so quickly though lol

 

[Chi-Town B]

They need to get back on that live action version. I know it's messed up that Chadwick passed before it got off the ground but that shouldn't stop them from telling this story.

I thought that too initially then I did some more research and found that not really is known about his life at all outside of basically the 3-4 year period he was documented to have been in Japan. Even after that short time period what happened to him is a complete mystery so I'm not surprised their using fantasy elements to fill in certain parts of the story

 

[Duwop]

Watched the first two episodes... Not bad

 

[Lord Nemesis]

This ain’t really holding my attention. Don’t particularly care about that little girl’s plot line

 

[Breezy_Kilroy]

Lakeith is a pretty good actor but voice over work might not be for him

Nigga sounded dry af in the trailer I watched which why I haven't peeppd the whole thing yet

 

[Dwayne]

This didn’t hit like I thought it would

 

[100MBS]

Only a few episodes in but I feel like they called this Yasuke for name recognition and attention. Seems like it's just gonna be about the girl. When I saw the robot land I was like wtf is this
