Let's take a tour of Edo, Japan's capital (now Tokyo) during the Tokugawa Period. 🗻

I've watched Japanese Samurai movies and shows such as The Last Samurai, Shogun TV series, 13 Assassins, 47 Ronin and this video is among those I admired the most in your channel.

Japan going French is a huge mistake Japan going German 😮‍💨

Agent2: The edo period Was badass and you know it!



Agent 1: dammit you're right

This is why you don't hire a narrator that doesn't understand the culture, to do a culture-heavy video...

Life in Spanish empire

Although many will criticise the Edo period as backward and isolationist, it is also the most peaceful period within its borders and its foreign relations. The most violent period came after the Meiji Restoration and Westernization, when Japan became imperialistic, starting to conquer and colonize its neighbours emulating Western imperialists. The horror and depravity of wars followed well into the second world wars.

In the year negative a billion. Japan might not have been here.

Edo Tensei no jutsu

Recently I found an edo "dai" helmet my last name but I have the last name Nagy which means great like the dai kanji

My japanese girlfriend loves edo period so much.

"Good god! WHY are we only using weapons from Japan's Edo period!?"
"Hey! The Edo period was badass and you know it!"
"Dammit, you're right."

Your lazy subtitle guy needs to be fired

The driving force that made US approach Japan was the demand from the whaling industries. As they expand their operation to the Asia, they needed Japanese ports for logistic purpose(in order to obtain firewoods and fresh water.
After the fall of Tokugawa Regime(Edo Bakufu), there were 2-step transition of power from Samurai Class to the new government. First, they surrendered nationwide political rule(sovereignty). Then Samurais gave up all the land they used to hold during the Edo Period. Under the new laws of post-Tokugawa regime, everyone in Japan was deemed equal. However, they also created new Aristocrat Class(entitled to generous annual govenment payout) called Kazoku. They were mostly high-ranking samurais(Daimyou Lords and their close aides) & royal family members. These people are give privilege for smooth power transiton from the old to the new ruler of Japan. In some cases, high ranking military officers(e.g.generals) are also added to the class of Kazoku(new aristocrats) due to their merit at war. World famous admiral Heihachiro Togo(beaten Russian fleet in the battle of Japan Sea 1905)was also given the title of marquis for his outstanding attainment in Russo-Japan war.

Wow, Nice subtitles.

Japan is the most preserved nation on the planet for its classical culture and the most creative country on culture and industry, purely phenomenal

After watching Tokugawa Aoi Sandai, their rise to power are more intense and complicated politically. The Tokugawa were so careful not to betray the Emperor directly while slowly but steadily increase their own power and influence.

Subtitles mf gave up 😭😂😂😂

Western tradition n life style is Desease

I love the Edo Period so much. It's so beautiful and pretty.

3 years later

It's probably worth mentioning that the "samurai code" was always a myth ironically created during the Edo period. In truth samurai tended to be opportunistic asshats attempting to cozy up to daimyos as a way of getting land from them.

Great English subtitles ahahahaha

samurai still exist, as company leaders with political influence

During the fall of the Samurai class in the late Edo period, breeding goldfish become a Samurais' second job for income. In fact, Samurai was the first goldfish keepers in Japan back in the 16th century. Ranchu, Ryukin, and Tosakin are the 3 signature breeds developed by Samurai

No copyright Japanese soundtrack music. Nice.
