When Katsumoto asks the fate of the 300 at Thermopylae and Algren says they died to the last, Katsumoto's grin is one of my favorite moments.

To die in an otherwise victorious battle that changes the course of history is perhaps the second greatest type of victory a warrior like Katsumoto can ask for. The greatest would be to die in a hopeless battle and still win the war because your sacrifice was that powerful. Katsumoto's death in this battle was infinitely more powerful than his survival would have been. If they had won and captured or even killed Omura, the humiliation for the Japanese government would have been immeasurable. Without Omura there to be a political bastard, the young Emperor could be tricked into signing even more deeply unfavorable treaties. Had he lost and retreated, the last war cry of the samurai would have been silenced by Katsumoto's echoing shame. Had he been captured, it would have been confounded by the various humiliations Omura would inflict upon Katsumoto before killing him. But by dying in this battle, by going out on HIS terms, nobody else's, charging into a hopeless battle with weapon in hand and a battle cry in his throat, his message was infinitely louder than his defeat could have been. He just needed Algren to carry that message to the Emperor. The Spartans at Thermopylae had a similar situation. They made the Persians pay so dearly that they bought the rest of Greece enough time to muster up their armies. Also, the battle at Thermopylae actually had a few thousand Greeks, up to 4,000. After they were outflanked by the goat path, Leonidas commanded all non-Spartan forces to retreat and vowed to protect their retreat. 1000-1500 other Greeks stayed behind along with the 300 Spartans, and they were, to a man, slaughtered. Total losses put the Greeks at around 2,000, including the first few days of battle, and 20,000 Persians. Now, 20,000 is only 2% of 1,000,000, but modern estimates actually put the Persian force at up to 300,000, so that 20,000 is suddenly nearly a tenth of your force wiped out for what was barely a dent into the combined Greek military. 10 Persians for every dead Greek. So imagine their terror when they rocked up to Plataea and saw ~100,000 Greeks staring back at them.

I think the self stabbing (seppuku), which is not only stabbing, it's also moving the blade from left to right to slice up the belly, is to simulate the worst possible death you can have on the battlefield. It's done to show, that the samurai can endure the pain and suffering, and was not fleeing from the enemy to avoid such a death. Chopping his head off is done as act of mercy, to show he has suffered enough to prove his point.

Japan, its culture, its history, and its people are so interesting, and inspiring to me. I think there are aspects which many Westerners find to be lacking in our own culture. The conflict between progress, and entrenched tradition is not uniquely Japanese, but it does make me wonder if humanity might figure out at some point, how to hold on to the best parts of both.

I think the nature of progressive politics is that of destructive youth minded revolution and rebellion, I have never witnessed preservation ever enter a progressives mind. The idea that Conservative society never progressed is non sense because the influence of trade and conflict with other nations in the history of ethnic nations added specific cultural influences in art and technology to them over time. I am not convinced that loud Cultural Revolutionary political personalities like those that caused the French Revolution or the American Cultural Revolution can be convinced to spare destroying anything because they don't like to listen to their elders who they seem to think they are so much more intuitively smarter than. The concept of all inclusivity of everything from art work to one's own gender identity these days will not allow for impressive new creations of structured "conservative" style art/music/architecture to be formed like conservative historic societies made. Progressive upstarts and activists think real human society started with their ideology and pop art, but the human race under countless civilizations and empires built up structured mature rich styles of art and architecture of their societies that can be identified thousands of years later for their form and the influences from the select other cultures who influenced their style even through conflicts. If progress was meant to be for the better then it would by nature be a much more conservative limited/controlled mature thoughtful act rather than spawned most often from destructive revolution and aggressive emotional mob activist politics which seems to catch the imaginations of individuals especially young people better than anything Conservative does. Personally I find progressive politics to be immature youth popular but lacking in thoughtful mature personal argument substance rather than what talking point arguments has been given to them by ideological mentors. If woke people came to this village they would be all over them for not using non binary pronouns or any number of other sins.

I was more than skeptic when I saw Tom Cruise was going to star a movie called The Last Samurai. Having practiced martial arts for decades, I had a great respect for Bushi-do (Japanese way of the warrior), but I'm glad I watched the movie. It has become one of my favorites of all time. You don't have to apologize for your words and reactions. I think they are great. In my opinion, the problem is with YT. They want to control language, creators and content and have everybody under one cookie cutter format. I think it is absurd, but sadly there is no open competing platform where we could all move to, so they take advantage of it and we have to deal with their rules.

for those who dont know, Katsumoto's last line "they are all perfect" is also the last line in his poem that he was writing. Japanese poems, at least the most famous one - haiku, is a poem that goes on 3 lines with the first having 5 syllables, the second having 7 syllables, and the last line has 5 syllables. he does tell algren in the movie the first two lines in his poem and was struggling to find the last one

The film, even if it doesn't seem like it, is based on reality. The film depicts the Satsuma Uprising in 1877 led by Takamori Saigó. The battle at the end of the movie is the "Battle of Shiroyama". Captain Algren is also supposed to represent a real character. He is based on Jules Brunet, a French soldier who was hired to train Japanese soldiers. Brunet eventually fought alongside the Tokugawa Shogun. I also recommend the song Sabaton- Shiroyama.

In western culture (represented by Algren), honor comes from never giving up no matter what, which baffles Ujio.

14:35 Seppuku is the ritual suicide of a defeated or shamed samurai. As a samurai cannot bear the shame of defeat, they take their life to retain their honor. A battlefield seppuku like in the movie uses whatever blade is available, and requires the samurai to plunge the blade into their left abdomen, and cut left-to-right, hopefully damaging internal organs or the abdominal aorta. There is a kaishakunin, usually someone very close to the samurai or, in this case, the highest ranking samurai on the field of battle, that performs the kaishaku, or ritual beheading of the samurai. Some rituals of seppuku also have the blade turned vertical after the horizontal cut then thrust upwards with hopes of hitting the heart or one of the major arteries, although the most brutal form of it is jumonji giri (literally "cross cut") where the samurai makes the left to right cut, then pulls the blade out, turns it vertically, and then plunges it back in, cutting up and across the original cut to make a cross that looks like the plus ( + ) sign. Jumonji giri was mostly reserved for the most heinous of crimes that could still be absolved through seppuku, or when the samurai had no kaishakunin to behead them. The kaishakunin was to strike when the samurai had finished their cut, or were in danger of showing pain or crying out in pain. The kaishaku in the movie is actually a pretty bad one, as the head came completely off. A properly done kaishaku will cut the spine, most of the neck, both arteries and the trachea, but leave the muscles and skin on the front of the neck intact so the head will flop down into the chest. A full beheading like the one in the movie was reserved for criminals that were to be executed and they had no honor to maintain

I have never understood why ppl tend to dislike Tom Cruise. The man is a phenomenal actor and this is his greatest performance in my opinion.

Insecure people are jealous of people like Cruise --- they will never have his money or fame or talent, so they only react with hate --- it shows all their flaws

I love that the intimate scene between them has no sex. Nothing against a good shaggin' but this was way more emotional, intimate and heartfelt. It was the right decision.

Thank you for this. This movie has a very special meaning for me and my family. Seeing you moved by it like that felt a bit like re-living it for the first time. I binged a lot of stuff from you today; I did not know you before today. You are very cool in many ways and wish I was your friend. May your journey into epic movies continue and shine bright!

Great Reaction Video 🎉 I once asked my friend ... What do you think about when you meditate? He replied nothing. I then asked how can you think about nothing ❓ He said if you have to think of something ... let it be about only breathing out slowly. Eventually, even that will become natural and you would have an empty mind. He was a very wise person.😊

this movie was inspired by the story of a French general named Jules Brunet, who embrassed the rebellion and fought as a samurai. The first and only French samurai of history. Brunet is buried now at the père lachaise cemetary in Paris.

Saigo Takamori is known as the Last Samurai of Japan. He lived from 1828 to 1877 and followed the path of the samurai, eventually leading reform in the Meiji govern- ment and dying for his cause. Hayashi is also regarded as the last Daimyo of Jouzai, who fought in the Boshin war until 1868 and lived until 1941. The Battle of Shiroyama in 1877 was fought between the Imperial Japanese Army and the last 500 remaining members of Saigo Takamori's contingent of samurai warriors.

It is interesting to see what parts of the movie get to the viewers. A lot of people cry when everyone is being shot at the end, but they gloss over reactions from the enemy soldiers who kowtow to show their deep and solemn respect. Your understanding of that moment really stands out. Kudos.

I'm sure you take movie choices from your Patreon polls, but for suggestions on what you might want to make for poll choices: Tom Cruise movies, I think the best are this one of course, A Few Good Men, Oblivion, Edge of Tomorrow, Top gun and Minority Report. Saw some other comments recommend Troy and Kingdom of Heaven for non-Cruise movies, but also being Period Pieces, and both of those are amazing movies as well.

Just discovered your channel, and this is a great, great film and story, I usually don't care for ppl who talk and analyze the film while watching it, but your comments and insight are welcomed to my ears, thank you for reacting to this movie, and I very glad you enjoyed it, like you, I was not a tom Cruise fan before I saw this movie, I believe he showed his maturity as an actor for this role, and it made me a fan of his work, hope all is well with you, take care!...👍👍👍👍👍

This is the pride of the Japanese to honor authority and give their life for their country. Failure is not an option in this time among the Japanese. This is also what made the Japanese tough to fight in WWII.

This was an awesome reaction. I’ve seen so many reactions by a lot that of reactors, but yours has been the most entertaining. This reaction was a mixed bag of fun, hilarity and emotion. Thank you for such a beautiful reaction. You managed to predict portions of the movie prior to it happening, and your joy of learning new things is encouraging. I can’t wait to see another reaction. You also have a very beautiful smile that lights up the screen. 😊
