For those curious about the monkey cards, the wiki says: “This monster is based after Toyotomi Hideyoshi, a samurai lord who united Japan. He served Oda Nobunaga (the model of "Shien") as a footsoldier. He had the nickname Saru, meaning "monkey", because he looked like one.”

I might as well explain. It is a popular joke towards Toyotomi Hideyoshi. The person who succeeded Nobunaga. Japan loves to assosiate Hideyoshi with a monkey because of a nickname Nobunaga gave him. His nickname was "Kozaru" due to his physical resemblance to a monkey.

[@CaptainRed1000]

You joke with that intro, but I'm convinced that that's how Six Samurai was able to get so much good support.

Shien is based on Oda Nobunaga. He was a sengoku judai daimyo and the teacher of Hideyoshi who was commonly referred to as “the monkey” who would go on to continue his legacy. Also funny note, one of Nobunaga’s most infamous moments is when he burned down a temple with many women and children in it. Which makes the fact that Shien is a fire type kinda darkly funny.

Generations (In order of Lore): Legendary Six Samurai (Since this is when Enishi, Mizuho, Kizan [Grandmaster] and Elder [Assuming that's Advisor while he was younger. Or maybe Advisor is actually an older form of Great General] are still younger and active warriors. Plus we still have Shi En at his full power. Plus, Shinai is sadly dead; thus giving us Spirit Of The Six Samurai. Plus, Kageki ends up being Chamberlain due to his multiple robotic limbs) Six Samurai. (Main 6 of Yariza, Kamon, Yaichi, Zanji, Irou and Nisashi) which seems to also show Kagemusha becoming the "Body double" of Shiem in his hay day. Secret Six Samurai. (Perhaps a secret battalion of the Six Samurai faction)

[@soren1803]

“It’s no time walk, let me tell you that...” A MAGIC THE GATHERING REFERENCE?!

[@joshuaxiong8377]

The reason for the monkeys: I do know that Nobunaga Oda nicknamed one of his subordinates, Hideyoshi Toyotomi, "Saru" (Monkey). Maybe he even called his even lesser subordinates (like the cannon fodder) Monkey but this is just a guess. Seeing how Shien is based on Nobunaga, Footsoldier (the lesser peons) and Squire (Hideyoshi Toyotomi), fall in place nicely with the other classic samurai references that I do know about. Mizuho/Hand (Oichi), Shinai/Spirit (Azai Nagamasa), Kagemushua/Shadow (Akechi Mitsuhide), original Six Samurai + maybe Grandmaster (The Seven Samurai for the whole group, Miyamoto Musashi, Sasaki Kojiro), Enishi (could be Tokugawa Ieyasu), and the Ninjas of the Six Samurai could be Ieyasu's ninja crew with their leader Hattori Hanzo. Also, great video Rata as usual. Take care of yourself and Happy Birthday. :)

[@thehighwayman3122]

Also, Elder might be based on Nobunaga's father in law Saito Dosan, who was betrayed and killed by his own son Saito Yoshitatsu.

[@AniGaAG]

Good. Very informative and very well researched. _Now_ explain why they're all wearing glowing sci-fi armor, why Shadow Shien's shoulder is dislocated, why the Secret Six Samurai are ninja instead of samurai, and what there is supposedly even an amount of six of here.

[@Rahnonymous]

Damn, Yugioh is deadass gonna rip off Nioh 2 like that?

[@notreallythere477]

So, to explain The Lore of Six Samurai: The original Six and related cards are pretty straightforward and serve essentially as the framework from which the rest of the story follows. It's six dudes who serve their shogun, and also a few others who act in supporting roles behind the front lines. The Legendary Six is essentially a prequel, with Shien (back then known as Shi En) along with the support gang from the original archetype back in their glory days (and back when Kageki/Chamberlain still had his original arms). Shien's Advisor was from that era, with Elder of the Six Samurai being the same guy, but much older. Spirit of the Six is because Shinai was killed in a sacrifice play (as implied by Shinai's effect), and Mizuho, heartbroken, joined the Japanese equivalent of a nunnery to become Hand (there's a pretty dark significance to the fact that Mizuho couldn't tribute herself, but Hand can, if you consider the implications of that). Kagemusha eventually becomes Shadow of the Six Samurai and is also Kagemusha of the Blue Flame (Kagemusha likely represents his time during the period when Shien was Tenkabito Shien, prior to his becoming Great Shogun), and in a storyline that takes place across a dozen or so largely unrelated spell and trap cards, Shadow betrays and kills Shien, presumably to take his place. It's unknown how well the plan worked out, precisely, but it leads right into the Secret Six Samurai, who serve either Shadow, or whatever other authority filled the vacuum in Shien's absence. Given that they transitioned from samurai to ninja, one can assume that Shadow played to his personal strengths and took the whole operation underground when he found he couldn't keep Shien's empire together on his own. Legendary Secret of the Six Samurai is Shien's ghost, now suffering the same fate to which he'd once consigned Shinai. It's also possible that the Secret Six and normal Six coexisted, and it's just that the Secret Six sided with Shadow, which is why Legendary Secret specifies their sub-archetype (only they know that Shien is dead), and that Shadow took over seamlessly. Also, Shien's Daredevil was eventually informed of the archetype's actual playstyle and become Battle Shogun, though it's unclear which time period he belongs to (given he was loyal to Shien and Daredevil came out alongside Advisor, and that he becomes a general and not some sort of ninja master, it seems likely that Daredevil was from the Legendary era and thus Battle Shogun was contemporary with the original set).

Glad to hear that you're not sounding so down anymore, and you're back into your 'groove' of hilarious content. Also, Karakuri's maybe?

Just when I thought today couldn't get any better

[@ArsSymphinity]

I've been waiting so long for another video I almost couldn't believe it when this showed up in my notifications. My body is ready.

REJOICE For Rata has returned, but more importantly, that means more Ojama Green lore.

[@vanory1997]

I was in my peak of playing yugioh during the period where six sams were tearing apart the meta. I remember buying two storm of ragnarok booster boxes plus singles after to make the deck ( ended up opening 2 ghost odins as well, back then I thought they were worth a fortune ) , and proceeded to top multiple times at my locals, also destroying low ranks on dueling network . I have the deck to this day and even though I am nowhere near as involved with the game as I was back then i still save up money to update it every once in a while for the sake of nostalgia, along with my other favorite deck, gkeepers. WHICH YOU SHOULD TOTALLY MAKE AN ARCHIVE FOR !! Seriously though, good video as always, thanks for taking me back to an older time.

[@Specter053]

OH BOY, BEATING PEOPLE WITH WEABOO STICKS! Also Happy Birthday, dude.

[@I_Kick_Jawas]

I legit missed your videos. Since my only experience with the game since gradeschool has been Duel Links, I like watching your unique brand of informative videoes to learn about archetypes and possible deck builds. Here's hoping for another video before the end of the year! Still waiting for my Ojama Lime animated series btw

Thanks for making another wonderful video Rata. These always make my day when you release them.

If I remember correctly, "Kagemusha of the Blue Flame" ends up becoming "Kagemusha of the Six Samurai" in the lore

[@DrDrao]

He did refer to OCG volume 1 in the video, as well as a pic of kagemusha, so I think it's safe to say he knows this little fact.

[@BILOUUU59]

Which become legendary six samuraïs shi en after that.

[@RevRa-3]

Yep. Then he became Shadow Of The Six Samurai. *"Kagemusha" translates to "Body Double"*

[@somepony13]

@@RevRa-3 So he's "Shien's Body Double" as a Normal Monster. Sounds a _lot_ cooler than its mistranslation.

[@RevRa-3]

@@somepony13 Actually, "Shien" does translate to "Blue Flame" so the wonky translation still works

[@SamuraiOfTheSix]

Six Samurais are my favorite archetype of all time. I’m glad you did this video.

[@TheAz0680]

He grades He archives But most importantly HE BACC

[@NikNath395]

Not only is it a solid archtype with nice designs and best of all a strong lore but it's also one of few archtypes to have one. This makes this archtype amongst my favourites since there is so much stuff to discover and discuss about on the cards they appear on.

[@Corrifa]

"The card is no Time Walk i'll tell you that" Was that a MTG reference in my Yugioh Video?

[@Blu_Laguna]

All the ads in this video were for Sekkiro Shadows die twice. This video just got +3 more Bushido counters.
