- čas přidán 28. 05. 2024
- Honda Masanobu is presented to us in the Shogun TV show as Kashigi Yabushige. Masanobu existed in the tumultuous era of the Sengoku period, marked by fierce Samurai Lords competing for supremacy, each aspiring to claim the coveted title of Shogun amidst a backdrop of extreme violence and upheaval.
In the midst of the chaos and devastation, Honda Masanobu, a relatively insignificant daimyo, forged an alliance with Tokugawa Ieyasu and would become one of his closest friends and retainers with the two communicating in code in many meetings to secretly communicate without others knowing. Yet, their relationship wasn't always amicable with the two even going to war against one another at one point. The Sengoku period was a time of warlords engaging in intricate mental warfare, involving schemes, betrayals, alliances, and enemy eliminations. It was a brutal contest of psychological manipulation and conflict. Amidst this turmoil, Masanobu emerged as a prominent figure, ascending to one of the highest echelons of power in Japan. This is story.

The actor in this version is excellent. Against my will he is making me like this character. He just exudes charisma.
Love him in the show
Any director who wants the audience to despise a villain should not cast this actor. He has such charisma he could be the next James Bond.
I wish we could have seen that teased buddy team up trip back to England.
Tadanobu Asano was just that great. I first know him from Zatoichi as the only guy who has the skill to kill Zatoichi, but failed because he can't hold his scoff.
He's a very good actor and in a lot of movies. Reminds me a bit of Toshiro Mifune (who played Toranaga in the original Shogun) because of how charismatic and how he steals a scene
Yabushige is probably the character that Clavell had the most creative freedom writing about, considering how much he’s so different from the real Honda Masanobu.
I agree, i like his portrayal in the show, great combination of a bit of comedy seriousness and schemes.
Please make a buntaro video
Llĺĺllĺllĺllllllll ll. Ll. L. Ll. L.
Tadanobu Asano is the actor who portrays Kashigi Yabushige/Masanobu in Shogun. Watch his portrayal as Genghis Khan in the movie Mongol > czcams.com/video/Q_-lDpJufIQ/video.htmlsi=z3LB84IEH1Tql9RA
The actor Tadanobu Asano also played Chinggis Khan in "Mongol" from 2007, one of the greatest movies ever made.
I haven't seen him in alot, but just from his stellar performance in "Mongol", he's one of my favorite actors.
I also liked him as Admiral Yamaguchi in Midway
@@TehIdiotOne I'll have to look into that thanks bud!
I love him in the show
He’s also in “Zatoichi”.
he was a yakuza in the movie the forewigner starring alongside jared leto
In the book, this character is even more untrustworthy. However, I like the character as portrayed by the actor. I don't know why. There's nothing especially redeemable but for some reason the character appeals to me. I have to give my congrats to a very good actor.
His look reminds me of mitsurugi from soul caliber, and he plays it realistic portrayal of trying to hedge your bets, trying to not being ruined by choosing the wrong side
@@Unknown31212 Absolutely!!! He's a very, very good actor. Your assessment nails it on the head!
He’s one of the best characters in the show bc of the actor. I liked him in the book. He’s got balls, he’s sneaky but has some honor. He just wants to win and be on top like everyone else. Just isn’t wise enough to hide his ambitions.
In the book he was also not the smartest samurai in the fold and really got played by Omi san
The actor's name is Tadanobu Asano. He is a quarter-American Japandese. If you like him, I recommend to check Takeshi Kitano's Zatoichi and Martin Scorsese's Silence.
Just got back from Japan and Osaka Castle is amazing. My interest in the feudal lords of Japan and the battles are so interesting. My interest in the Edo period and prior has grown significantly.
Mine has decreased significantly.
When I go to Japan, I will probably spend all day there reading everything! Do you have any recommendations on travelling there? I really want to go
I wonder how many pepo know that modern day Edo is Tokyo.
Go to Yoshiwara in Tokyo. The place that Madam Jin is talking about in Ep7.@@historyprofiles
@@historyprofiles Buy your tickets in advance and go early to avoid the long lines. Also, inside the actual castle are many floors and it’s awfully crowded as you ascend to the top it becomes elbow to literally elbow with people, but still worth the visit and experience.
By far my favorite character and actor.
Same here!!!! I dont know why!
I could not get through the first twenty minutes of the series but definitely had a love hate relationship with old Yabu. Thanks, very interesting
Awesome work!! Thanks
Thank you for watching!!!
Thank you so much for the information in this video 👍🏻
Thank you so much for watching!
@@historyprofiles you're welcome 👍🏻 enjoy your upcoming weekend
I would probably comeback and watch this after the series is done.
Thank you for this video. Yabushige is the fan favorite
I love him in the show
Simply excellent.
Thank you so much!!!
Can't wait to hear this!
I hope you enjoyed the video!
Great video keep it up you're doing amazing things 😁😄
Thank you so much it means a lot!
That actor reminds me of the main guy from Ghost of Tsushima. He's my favorite character from Shogun
Mine too! Shows a very human side to the samurai!
Ikko Ikki have always fascinated me.
Sorry, i am later for the wonderful showcase: My favourite topic, and your perfect, amazing voice telling stories. Thank you. Ps: It was a tough day for me, but i'm happy i can listen tonight to your great work
Thank you so much for watching!
@@historyprofiles
You are welcome! Thank you!
Very awesome actor! Love his character
I love him in the show !
Tokugawa Ieyasu loved Honda Masanobu so much that he didn't kill him like in TV dramas! Ieyasu would never kill someone who brought him benefits.
Toranaga is based on Ieyasu but they are different people.
You’re very welcome. Love your content in ancient Japan.
Thank you so much !!
I love him and his armour
He is my Favorite character! The man just want to live his life 😂😂😂😂
Love him in the show!
Thank You for this Japanese history series.
More coming soon!
good, very good! We can't wait for a new video from you!
Thank you! I can't wait to create one!
@@historyprofiles yes, I knew the story of Anjin-san, of Tokugaua, of Ishida, but I didn't know much about the other characters in the book/series! Thanks to your channel, I can also learn as much as possible about that period of Japanese history!
Kasigi Yabu is badass in the book and even more in the series.
Actually, Tokugawa Ieyasu founded the Tokugawa Clan. He was actually head of the Matsudaira Clan.
My favorite character from the show
I can say the guy can act he played hogun in Thor and now he is one of the best characters of this show
My favorite character
I agree, i like his portrayal in the show, great combination of a bit of comedy seriousness and schemes. Shows a very human side to the samurai
Yabu is great in the books
What is the source of the chinese music you used in the background? the title is cut off in the description
my bad, link here: czcams.com/video/WkvOjxHnPOI/video.html&ab_channel=NiceChineseMusic
@@historyprofiles wow, thanks for the response! It was so beautiful I wanted to be able to listen to it. Thank you again!
What are your sources for this biographic?
i think the model for Kashigi Yabushige is Araki Murashige .
He is famous as the most despicable man in the Sengoku period.
It appears all the main characters are playing chess, with exception of Yabu…. He’s playing checkers…lol
Love his character he’s like a troll
Yabushige in the show always reminds a bit of Yojimbo in the Akira Kurosawa movies.
call him what you want. But I think he's one of the most likeable characters in my opinion. He's the type of guy who just wants to have fun and party and drink beer with!
Interesting but no notes left by Clavel indicates that Yabushige (Yabu in the book and 80s show) is inspired by Honda Masanobu the two Characters are really really different. When one switches side continuously the other stay realialble and is a good friend of Ieyasu. One is a field warrior the other is a bureaucrate wispering behind the curtains. Also the destiny and end of both Characters is. different. The closest we have from Masanobu is really Toda Hiromatsu. Even of the last is inspired by Fujitaka Hosokawa, the long time loyalty and friendship and the âge reminds of Honda.
Yabu and Omi were created characters with no direct inspirations
In the fx shogun Wikipedia page, it states which characters are based off who according to the show runners narrative, u fortunately clavel is no longer with us to clarify this. I am going with the fx shogun narrative as it’s quite clear and logical. Clavel also drastically changed the personalities and deeds of many characters.
Same as Bernard Cornwell did in the last kingdom series. All characters were based on Anglo Saxon nobles and vikings. Their deeds characters were changed alot.
It comes with the territory of writing fiction when it’s based off real events however I understand your point. This series is simply meant to portray the true lives of some of the characters anyway I hope you enjoyed the video
❤
Thank you for watching!!
The Yabo character isn't Honda Masanobu... The older character Hiromatsu is
It was the grunts. The show goes to great lengths to let you know that the Japanese characters are hiding their true motivations, but Yabu is the most transparent to us, both because we see him betray Toranaga outright and because he vocalizes many of the same reactions the audience feels as things appear to go sideways for Toranaga.
👍
Thank you for watching!!
How did you figure Yabushige was based on Masanobu since they are such different personalities both in character and in their destiny?
Yet in the lastest episode we kind of hated him...damn
Is he really represented by Yabushige? I mean, Masanobu was one of Ieyasu's most trusted retainers (and his main political fixer). I don't know if you can say the same thing about Yabu.
In the FX Shogun wikipedia page, you can see which character is based on who here: en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sh%C5%8Dgun_(2024_miniseries)
The shogun series was based on historical event, but still most of the stories, characteristics of the characters are fictional. Even the toranaga that represents ieyasu are more likely to be better than historical ieyasu in some aspects
@@historyprofilesbut no confirmed by Clavel or essaies he wrote. Yabu is the representation of the small daimyos who had to take sides and navigate trough turmoils. If u rode the book and watched the 80s show u will realized they are different Characters. Hiromatsu on the other hand is really close to Masanobu (minus the cunning part) . Inspired.by Fujitaka Hosokawa, the last didn't do much during this part of Sengoku era (he wast a bigger player earliers with the Ashikaga). Clavell. mixed multiple Characters and took. liberties like the 3 régents. Only one is inspired by Maeda Toshiee the two others inspirations (Otani and Konishi were different)
@@Les_Carnets_de_Tom I understand your point. Unfortunately clavel isn’t with us to confirm which character is based off who. I am going with the shogun FX narrative on who is based on who. Anyway these videos are not about that, this series of the real lives of the people who they are allegedly based on, sharing their true lives and experiences.
I think Toranaga is so cunning that not only he was able to implement Crimson Sky, he also was able to revise the image of Masanobu from a trusted retainer to a flip floping Yabushige, it was all part of Toranaga's plan all along.
Honda Masanobu eh? I think I read that real Masanobu actually disliked by other Tokugawa generals due to his pada involvemrnt with the radical Ikko Ikki..
Ofc this is quite subjective as Ieyasu seems more lenient and willing to give his former enemies second chances,
In any given country at any given time in history, how would a regular ass person avoid the turmoil warlords put their people through? At least most of these guys throughout history in different places were on the field fighting too putting their’s on the line.
But did the real-life man grunt as much?
In the FX Shogun, he was portrayed as a scheming warlord who has no true loyalty. How come?
because FX Shogun is based off the book of James Clavell which is loosely based on real events. James changed a lot of events in his books, and the personalities and deeds of many characters! Although I do love his story, I feel it's important to share the true stories of these men
the picture you used is Hanzo Watanabe not Hanzo Hattori they're two separate people look it up before you make a video
story of yabushige and masanobu honda is very different in historys and movie shogun 2024
yabushige is appear coward. backstabbed person. wicked . and opportunist
while masanobu is histroy is loyal and brave
@0:15 sad the hat kinda looks like someone's junk.
徳川家康は本田正信が大好きだったのでドラマみたいに殺したりしてません！家康は自分に利益をもたらした人物を殺しはしません。
How did they figure out that Yabu was "based" on Honda Masanobu? Simple they pulled a name out of a hat
Look in the shogun fx Wikipedia page, all the lists are there.
@@historyprofiles Did james Clavell author the Wikipedia page? is every single character in the show "based" on a historical person? Sometimes fictional characters are just products of the authors imagination
@@forddon not every character but many are based on real people. That’s the whole basis of the show
**SPOILERS**: So in the serie of Shogun, the son of Taranaga die hiting his head with a stone while trying to kill his uncle... So that part is hella wrong cuz he was part in the Osaka siege??
I’m releasing a video on him shortly. The son of toronaga in the show is based of ieyasus 4th son, not hidetada who became shogun after him
@@historyprofiles Oh! thank you for the clarification! nice video btw.
@@historyprofiles but he was also alive even took part in sekigahara battle
@@belvinanandaCame late and really pissed his dad off!
This is the 3rd video I've started watching of yours. Each time, I've heard you give incorrect information and identify characters incorrectly. Sadly people think you are giving them a true history lesson. When you're just making your own stuff up. The Shogunate has some of the best true history with accurate references and historical facts. People watch that channel. Not this false/fake history channel.
Name one bit of incorrect information please.
And name one person who I have identified incorrectly.
I’m waiting.
That’s what I thought! A lot of research went into this series and for you to say that and discredit the videos because you prefer another channel is just sad. Couldn’t come up with a single point.
Truth be told. I know a lot about the period, without being blessed to have my own channel. And yes Clearly I don't know it all. So that's why I hunt for more information as well as I enjoy other views and reviews. To get more knowledge.
Honda isn't Kashigi Yabushige. Honda would be about 61 at the time period. A much more loyal general at this period of time than this character in Shogun. Honda would be more than likely one of the other generals in the war room in episode 8. Seated in the front row. Because of his importance to Toranaga(Ieyasu). I clearly deflect the fact that the writer has much more of a story to tell than a history lesson to teach. That's why more so than not. The history and historical facts are changed for the book and series of Shogun. But Honda was such an accomplished general and leader in his own right. Yes early in his life he had friction with Ieyasu. But by this period and the year that these actions take place. Honda was a very loyal general. As close to his Right head man as any. So no sir. You aren't correct about the character you are attempting to describe. Let's understand. Your viewers are getting some, some, history and historical facts. But they better not take your information and use it on a history test. They may not pass. 😂
I love history! I love and enjoy learning as much about most cultures and their rich long history. So please, you can be free to entertain. But if you even have one fact wrong, Without confirmation, clarity, or even if you just came out and said this is your opinion on who this character represents. Well I would've just passed by without a comment. But sir, you are attempting to say these are historical facts. Which you are then discrediting and dishonoring the man Honda. What did he do to you?
@@gregbarthjr9621 Greg, if you go on the shogun fx tv programme it tells you who yabushige is loosely based on. All I did was tell the life story of who the show identified on who yabushige was based on. I don’t cover the fictional character at all. I tell the real story of Honda masanobu who the show identified him as, so if there was a history lesson and they asked a question about him yes they would pass.
Here who can see who the characters are loosely based off, and the show and real life have events that happen a lot differently as the show and the characters in it are fiction.
en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Shōgun_(2024_miniseries)
Yabushige. I think the main characters are kinda boring. Especially the englisch man and the translator
What a lame ass way to end an amazing series 😫
not all daimyo were after the title of shogun, it was fewer then many
Agreed, I hope you enjoyed the video nonetheless!
Grunt- Yabushime sama
Real hero’s not the butt pirates of Japan in the Second World War.
