Female Samurai Are Historically Accurate (Ghost of Yotei Controversy)

The backlash against the female samurai protagonist in Ghost of Yotei has sparked debate, but historical evidence shows that female warriors, or onna-musha, were a well-documented part of Japan's samurai class. Figures like Tomoe Gozen, Hangaku Gozen, and Kaihime played significant roles in battles throughout Japanese history. This video addresses the complaints and highlights the historical precedent for women in samurai roles, showing that such a portrayal is far from unrealistic.

I think it’s great to see female samurai in a game. People should be more open-minded, it's just a different perspective.

[@jbstarkiller4626]

Don’t be so open minded that your brain falls out of your head😒

​@@jbstarkiller4626He says, ignoring objective historical facts.

[@statusbro6659]

People really mad about a female samurai? lmao, they existed in real life so it makes sense to me.

[@deepalisangare1022]

Don’t know what everyone’s upset about. It’s a video game at the end of the day. Who cares if it’s a guy or girl leading?

[@crusadetactician149]

Its not that the main protagonist is a girl.....its the voice actor....shes is so woke and is a straight up left activist

[@jellydamgood]

Warrior and samurai arent the same. Any rando can choose to pick up a weapon and fight, but that does not make them samurai.

[@Carbdeliveries]

Did you perhaps miss parts of the video, or is my English not quite clear enough? If it’s my accent, fair enough; but female warriors in Japan weren’t merely “randoms picking up weapons”; they were trained members of the samurai class with established roles. This also isn’t modern revisionism-women served as warriors until the Edo period shifted society towards stricter, male-centric norms. Overlooking this is more than a misunderstanding; it’s ignoring a documented part of samurai culture. The historical records do speak for themselves here.

[@jbstarkiller4626]

This is extremely disingenuous 1. Being a military leader/ commander and being a warrior are 2 separate concepts. 2. The character in the game seems to be a lone wolf type character which makes her presence even more unbelievable, suspension of disbelief can only go so far.

What did you expect? Honesty? Accuracy? Anything other than lispy creeper validation for a game destined to fail?

[@MdTaufik-tf6st]

Nah, this doesn’t feel right. I know women fought too, but I don’t think a female samurai works for this kind of game.

[@cammyshill3099]

Sir, you were surrounded in fighting chicks in Ghost of Tsushima, what the hell do you mean they don't work for this kind of game?
