[The Elusive Samurai] What the hell is this guy?

Those people are the enemies of Buddha who have burned me. Shoot them down!!

1: Japan Otaku ReviewsYeahx16

If it’s about supernatural powers, it’s a straightforward development of divine punishment.

2: Japan Otaku ReviewsYeahx7

Well, it has to be explained that the Shirou clan, or rather, the mild ones, were thought of by everyone as someone to be killed, so they lost…

3: Japan Otaku ReviewsYeahx15

It might be the “Taiheiki” that should be said, “What is this?”

4: Japan Otaku Reviews

However, Naoyoshi’s fate is…

5: Japan Otaku Reviews

Nagao is becoming more and more of a common-sense person.

7: Japan Otaku ReviewsYeahx1

Nagao Uesugi is on the winning side of history, so I guess that’s why, but I really don’t think it’s the treatment you would expect for a character who originally appeared like that.

8: Japan Otaku ReviewsYeahx9

What is this?!

Because it is written in the Taiheiki…

It says so… I guess there’s no helping it…

9: Japan Otaku ReviewsYeahx3

Shijō’s death was expected, and since Naoyoshi was doing things that led to his defeat, it makes sense that Yoshimitsu would win in comparison; it really is a safe outcome.

He’s trashing Yoshinori to lift up the one-hit wonder comedian, so it just seems like the flow is off.

10: Japan Otaku ReviewsYeahx4

Well… even by the standards of that time, I can only say that they’re just acting strangely…

11: Japan Otaku ReviewsYeahx3

I don’t think I can complain about actions that would enrage and summon the Kongō-Zao Gongen.

What are the other great Avengers then?

12: Japan Otaku ReviewsYeahx2

It’s just a bunch of fanatics with no escape, but honestly, it looks like the night before the coup is repeating itself over and over again. I really wonder what the historical figure Naomasa was thinking.

Did they not think they would be treated?

13: Japan Otaku Reviews

Raping noblewomen and daughters is the ultimate pleasure!

14: Japan Otaku Reviews

It’s sad that it doesn’t really mean much that Shiyo was overwhelming against Momoi and Himeyasha since this is the side that determines the outcome of the battle…

15: Japan Otaku Reviews

With this author, I can’t believe it has finally been transformed to this extent…

17: Japan Otaku Reviews

Having great people and spirits as allies is like Fate.

18: Japan Otaku Reviews

I thought it was quite a ridiculous development, only to realize it was based on the Taiheiki.

19: Japan Otaku Reviews

It was recorded in the Taiheiki!

20: Japan Otaku Reviews

Your skin is blue…

22: Japan Otaku Reviews

Saying this to the Momoi, who are part of the Ashikaga clan, is way too challenging.

“Killing Nobuyoshi, the Takeda clan monopolizes the core of the shogunate! They become the regents who control the country! From my generation, I will manipulate the shogun like the Hojo.”

Saying this to the Momoi, who are part of the Ashikaga clan, is way too challenging.

24: Japan Otaku ReviewsYeahx1

I’m tired of the ongoing war.

25: Japan Otaku Reviews

The materials are a mess, but it can’t be helped since that’s all we have.

A ten-don gag complaining about materials that are crazier than manga…

26: Japan Otaku Reviews

The Taiheiki itself is clearly a creation rather than historical fact, but since there are no other records from that time that seem to exist, we have no choice but to reference it.

27: Japan Otaku ReviewsYeahx4

The Taiheiki is better because it doesn’t have any youkai appearing.

28: Japan Otaku Reviews

Maybe, just maybe…

The Taiheiki was more of a secondary creation that cannot be used as historical material, wasn’t it…

31: Japan Otaku Reviews

Unlike the Warring States period, not many families leave behind records.

32: Japan Otaku Reviews

There were sightings of yokai and examples of ancient great figures rushing to the battlefield up until around World War II.

33: Japan Otaku Reviews

However, if you’re going to depict this era, you have no choice but to use “Hojoki” as your material…

35: Japan Otaku Reviews

There are materials other than the Taiheiki.

Nige Waka’s base is based on the Taiheiki, and the supervision is just because he likes Naoyoshi.

…However, the actual Taiheiki is much harsher, so it’s written in a fairly mild way.

37: Japan Otaku Reviews

What is this unexpected intelligence capability of the Gemba that has persisted from the beginning to now?

If the opponent is Ashikaga Takauji, we can’t have a conversation without someone of this caliber.

40: Japan Otaku Reviews

For some reason, I mistook Nagao for Toki…

41: Japan Otaku Reviews

It’s hard to say he’s a one-hit wonder since he has three chances to shine, but two of those were quick kills and one was just a bonus from Kenka, making it difficult to evaluate him.

42: Japan Otaku ReviewsYeahx2

Is it okay to have a little spotlight in Musashino for the recapture of Kamakura…?

It’s going to end there, but…

44: Japan Otaku Reviews

Zao Gongen, huh~

45: Japan Otaku Reviews

I do not seek the recovery of Kamakura by the Hojo.

46: Japan Otaku Reviews

How appropriate is it for the Prince and the horse to fight according to the will of Buddha?

49: Japan Otaku Reviews

I thought Nagao-san would link it to Bishamonten…

There was nothing special.

51: Japan Otaku ReviewsYeahx2

Hmm? Speaking of which, is that why Nagao’s descendants are like that?

54: Japan Otaku Reviews

The people at the eaves are enemies, but I don’t feel a creepy malice coming from them.

I recently realized that it was to make them my ally.

55: Japan Otaku Reviews

The episodes where Daigo and others become tengu and engage in evil plots after they die have just been cut, so at least the fantasy elements of the Taiheiki are somewhat better.

56: Japan Otaku ReviewsYeahx2

While many noble families from the Northern and Southern Dynasties have disappeared, some named ones remain even until later, which is interesting.

Iee was a family with a normal historical background…

57: Japan Otaku Reviews

In historical narratives, people with surnames that aren’t often heard typically end up being the ones who lost.

Is it okay to feel like this?

60: Japan Otaku Reviews

I know it’s cosplay, but…

It seems better to say that I can’t fight because it’s against a Buddha…

61: Japan Otaku Reviews

If you burn a temple or shrine, you will be struck back by the main deity or enshrined god there.

64: Japan Otaku Reviews

It’s impressive that, despite having a properly divine power world view, they handled it with cosplay without making it overly fantastical!

67: Japan Otaku Reviews

I’m not well-informed, but for example, during the compilation of the Great Japanese History, what original sources were used for the history of this era?

68: Japan Otaku Reviews

The rise of a samurai starts from the point of burning gods and buddhas.

71: Japan Otaku Reviews

Even if the details have deities appearing, as long as the overall story flows correctly, it’s fine…

73: Japan Otaku Reviews

It is also written that way in the Taiheiki.

75: Japan Otaku Reviews

In this era, I am curious about what hearsay remains in materials that are considered unreliable.

76: Japan Otaku Reviews

Many of the materials on yokai that have been passed down to the present day first appeared around this time…

78: Japan Otaku Reviews

This guy is Zao Gongen, but his descendants become Bishamonten?

80: Japan Otaku Reviews

Rather, isn’t this about how the Taiheiki is being exaggerated this time!?

81: Japan Otaku ReviewsYeahx1

Today, someone killed by Hojo’s parents is feeling energetic.

82: Japan Otaku Reviews

While Masanobu is one thing, I feel that Naoyoshi is also acting like a usurper during this time, isn’t he?
