    Song: Shiroyama
    Author: Sabaton
    Movie: The Last Samurai (2003)
    Lyrics for "Shiroyama"
    It's the nature of time
    That the old ways must give in
    It's the nature of time
    That the new ways comes in sin
    When the new meets the old
    It always end the ancient ways
    And as history told
    The old ways go out in a blaze
    Encircled by a vulture
    The end of ancient culture
    The dawn of destiny draws near
    Imperial force defied, facing 500 samurai
    Surrounded and outnumbered
    60 to 1, the sword face the gun
    Bushido dignified
    It's the last stand of the samurai
    Surrounded and outnumbered
    As a new age begins
    The way of the warrior comes to an end
    As a new age begins
    The ways of the old must apprehend
    It's the nature of time
    That the old ways must give in
    It's the nature of time
    That the new ways comes in sin
    An offer of surrender
    Saigo ignore contender
    The dawn of destiny is here
    Imperial force defied, facing 500 samurai
    Surrounded and outnumbered
    60 to 1, the sword face the gun
    Bushido dignified
    It's the last stand of the samurai
    Surrounded and outnumbered
    Until the dawn they hold on
    Only 40 are left at the end
    None alive, none survive
    Shiroyama
    Imperial force defied, facing 500 samurai
    Surrounded and outnumbered
    60 to 1 the sword face the gun
    Bushido dignified
    It's the last stand of the samurai
    Surrounded and outnumbered
    60 to 1, facing the gun
    60 to 1, culture undone

      @masterexploder9668 Před 2 lety +37

      Historically it was most complicated, as Satsuma province was actually a home to a clan which was always more pro-imperial and pro-modernization as having closer ties to west than others, courtesy of geography and Nagasaki port, used first by Portugal and then by Netherlands. Saigo Takamori knew it was needed to modernize the country, he just wanted to keep samurai as ruling class. Tricky thing with samurai, other than warfare, they didn't really have other purpose or were allowed to pick other professions, which turned plenty of them into poverty, so many were actually glad that class restriction were getting lifted. Takamori at some point before his resignation from government service wanted to travel as envoy to Korea and behave in a super insulting fashion to get himself killed and provoke a war which he calculated that modernized Japan would win. After all his plans were failed, he resigned and later setup schools over the country to train his new paramilitary forces. During the rebellion he actually wore western uniform and had nothing against using artillery or guns, himself leading numerous artillery schools.
      Nathan Algren was inspired by French officer Jules Brunet, who served during Boshin War, 10 years before Satsuma Rebellion so there is a clear timeline issue here. Brunet was part of French contingent hired by Bakufu (Tokugawa Shogunate) government in an effort to modernize their outdated forces. Actually both Bakufu and Imperials did recognize the need for change, but the question was: who would control the Emperor and do the actual reforms. They also had unfinished business between each other, as clans like Choshu wanted revenge 250 years in the making.

      Exactly. EVERY culture is equally fascinating and these cultural differences are what set various peoples apart and the similarities are what unify us all. The inherent uniqueness of each individual is what makes humanity beautiful. Without chaos there can be no perfection, and with beauty comes inherent imperfections.

      I'm kinda hoping this is satire. If so, this is all of the comment. If not, read more below.
      Firearms take a lot of skill to properly maintain and use in modern combat. Not only does it take countless hours of training and discipline to be able to aim straight in a high tension fight, but you have to understand your weapon and it's capabilities, as some situations will put you at a disadvantage with certain gun types or calibers. Is the skill needed to use it the same as a sword? No. Is it less than the sword? Also no. They're different, but that doesn't make one dishonorable.

      By clicking the gun you can kill someone, you need to use your whole body to use a sword. Thus a weapon like a gun, shooting from the distance in most cases, is more easier to use in general, than a sword where your nerves explode while you fight with a foe face to face.

    This, right here, is the difference between Chinese and Japanese history. China removes the history of itself except for the successes. Everything about them is written from the victor. But in Japan, they understand, they recognize what got them that far, that their history is a treasure to be cherished and understood. Because of this, Japan has an extremely strict ideal of familial and personal honor to this day, while China believes the winner is always right, even if they cheated.
