The presentations were all amazing, very entertaining and well researched. I throughly enjoyed hearing the analyses.

What are the pieces at 14:11 called? Thanks for the video

Just shut up Deborah.

Nikkey is a fusion of Peruvian and Japanese food. Don't steal someone else's culture and ideas. It has nothing to do with Brazil. If you want to invent your own fusion, call it differently.

Hi.iwant to ask.. Is samurai wear open foot sandal like in video?

No way! How did I miss this, thank you for this! Ah so cool!

this is cool

THANKS FOR SHARING! Great advice regarding what to do for job manga and non-work manga. I think that's a good point.

i love samurai armor in fact in the future I would like to become an armorer as a hobby🥰

Pronunciation is so important! Thank you!

I love watching videos about armours from all over the world and seeing parallels. Only so many ways to protect the human body after all.

4:31~ The _hakama_ worn in the vid is more for everyday use. When wearing suits of armor, a special _hakama_ called a _karusan_ (軽衫, light under-trousers). It has the hems tightened beforehand so the _sune-ate_ can be worn more easily. 21:52~ The standard method to secure the _menpou_ is to tie three square knots: one under the chin, one in front of the chin, and one behind the neck.

Darren The Rei Sei, Zero Sen is Type Zero for the Fighter Plane

Tim also Midnight for Reiji Your Intro had me moved

Zack, Monkey Punch didn't choose his Pen Name and HATED it!

Darren, Post War Japan was ravenous for Western Movies and Culture. Just look at what happend when Monroe and DiMaggio had their Honeymoon in Japan. Baseball was already popular in Japan with the most iconoc Film Star of Hollywood

Darren...Tokiwa sou

Censorship of Yamato in the West omitted the sinking of the 1945 Yamato with American Pilot Saluting...which COMPLETELEY Negates The Otoko no Roman authentica

Zack Davisson, you have my support for releases

The Mercury Poisoning in the River...My Father Was the Photographer's Assistant who covered that. M Kono. I am using my Mother's Maiden Name for my handle Kind of like Yamaoka from Oushimbo

To paraphrase Okawara Kunio, when he was growing up in Japan Post War, the Militaristic Atmosphere "The Smell" (The gritty look and feel) was everywhere. So his works naturally as his contemporaries. So Creators of that Era just Naturally inserted it into their works. - taken from The Gundam Factory Interview

While I prefer the design of Sengoku period armor, I think the older style of the yoroi is very ornamental and beautiful. Thank you for the video!

I found this video just recently and I think it is a really fantastic discussion. So glad that I could watch it.

Thank you everyone who participated in the discussion! It was very interesting, I learned a lot 💛

ALSO i love Dick Fight Island, bought both volumes

It is very cool learning about the core nature of BL. I get it better now that I see it was originally made for heterosexual women as a kind of fantasy, BL has come far in its inclusivity for queer identities. Now I see why BL arguments on 'why is bl like this and that' may be a bit more nuanced than I expected. Very surprised to see such an honest take from the Korean BL analysis that seme use sexual violence to control the uke. That's brave.

Thank you!

Damn algren was fucked up on the inside only 2 came out that means one musiet ball is still inside😬

ありがとうございました。

Thanks from 🇧🇷

It is a crime that this only has 921 views great video super interesting and very engaging!

Very interesting video! I’d never seen any video so detailed like this one before. About the reason for wearing the right kote over the left one, according to my research, it’s because when shooting with a bow, the string might get stuck on the kote if the left one is over, and that would also be painful. So to avoid that, they would wear the right kote over the left one. This is the same reason why even male archers wear kind of a plate on the chest when practicing kyūdō, and also the reason why some old armors have a piece of leather on the torso part (dō).

Immaculate. Imagine making different ones for hundreds of characters.

Fascinating thank you! I'm so happy I found this! This really lends much needed context when reading his novels!!

Thank you for posting! I loved hearing from all the scholars. I hope to write my own paper on Zelda some day.

Thank you so much for this wonderful and informative panel! I loved every minute of it. ✨

Hey. What are they made of?

I might be making my own armor in the future, so i found this video helpful

It was a good conversation

This was fascinating and answered many concerns I had with the idea of women writing bl content for women instead of writing progressive content for heterosexual couples. If the bl industry in Japan was built by female writers and editors in an effort to have jobs in their male dominated world, well then I get it. Make a space where men dare not come. I was also worried that bl content written for women may not be what young gay people need. Were we damaging them in any way? Apparently not any more than gay writers writing about their own experiences. That makes a lot of sense actually. Writers do need to be able to effectively write all types of characters. It matters not their origin. It matters if they are good at their craft. I've had these questions for years, and you all helped me answer all of it. Thank you.

Thank you kindly.

One of the most inspiring presentations I've seen. Even though Shojo can reflect the misogyny society is still mired in today, there are many foundational sensibilities I'd consider very punk and subversive. I can confirm that as an adult gay man, I grew up looking at blurry heavily compressed images of BL from CLAMP and found solace in the representation of homosexuality. While there is a lot of problematic issues with some of these series, I was just glad that there was any representation especially for something with that production value and readership. Comparative representation in other countries wasn't great either, usually with character's sexuality being their sole defining feature. Through mangaka's experimentation I believe Japan was ahead of the game in normalizing a lot of these themes.

I'm so happy to see such a high quality CZcams video, thank you so much for making this video. This video has an excellent introduction. Studying ancient Japanese armor (especially samurai armor) is one of my hobbies. Samurai armor is an absolute military masterpiece. Even if you're not an armor fan or a samurai fan, people are usually drawn to the amazing look of these armors, how full of personality and so different. Regarding the practicality of Japanese armor, I guess I have to say: A lot of people are interested in armor but biased because they tend to only focus on the protective aspect of the armor. But what Japanese armorers who made Japanese armor (especially samurai armor) were really after was the balance of the armor, which is reflected in the armor (Tosei Gusoku) that began to appear in the middle of the 16th century AD. These armors usually have good security (Tosei Gusoku ranges from about 20 lbs to 60 lbs. The heavier armor is safer but also brings more burden, so the samurai will customize according to personal experience and needs armor), due to the excellent construction of Tosei Gusoku armor, they have excellent agility and you will be comfortable wearing them. And Japanese armor is one of the few armors in the world that can be quickly put on and taken off alone. Great video, let me thank you again.

Enjoyed this presentation. Sharing Japanese culture with clear expanations as to the thoughtful design. Many thanks! Who were the crafts people who made samurai Armor? Its inspiring to see the craftsmanship and the art form

L'ho detto e lo confermo: quando lessi La fabbrica capii l'eco di una delle piu' potenti voci al mondo, e anche piu' in profondita'. Inarrivabile.

this video is awesome
