@emmthreejonny you're refuring to Makai Tenshou, which was a fun film/novel...he is kind of like the japanese version of dracula in that novel, makes me wonder whod win in a fight Amuksa's supernatural being from Makai Tenshou or Count Dracula

Excellent work, this video.

Although this fascinating chapter of Japan's History deserves to be researched and told about in a much more in-depht scale.

Nonetheless, my sincere congratulations for this effort.

@N25Commando This is well known in Japan. We learn it in school, and watch this kind TV drama often.

oh great, christianity infects something else.

[emmthreejonny]

In what way did Christianity infect? Don't the Japanese people have the right to choose a religion?

[darkservantofheaven]

@emmthreejonny at the time, the shogunate didnt want any non-japanese influence during the Edo pierod, it was still wrong as the government was very opressive back then to keep order, but the Tokugawa shoganate is probibly one of the more hated shogunates in history over there due to their opressive regime, I did a paper on this in my first asian cultures class in college, the shima bara facts are fascinating, but I wish Japan would do more story's protraying Amukusa in a positive light

@emmthreejonny Everyone is free to choose any religion in Japan. The Edo period ended in the year 1868. After that choosing religion is free. There are many Christians live in Japan.

@emmthreejonny

Japanese can choose any religion. 2 Prime Ministers are Christian in Japan politics history, but almost ones are Buddhist. Japanese does not mind religion of Prime Minister.

@emmthreejonny the same way christianity infected Scandinavia.

[emmthreejonny]

@AntichristDemoncore As far as I know, Christianity was adopted by the Scandinavians not infected by it. I wouldn't rob them almost a thousand years of identity just to go back to a culture I'm sure they do not even identify strongly today. If you truly want to worship Norse religion, that's up to you, although Revelations ends better than Ragnarok. My only advise is you should be complaining on the Thor movie, because that movie was horrible, imo.

[AntichristDemoncore]

@emmthreejonny LOL WHAT, I don't rly care about religion at all I'm just fuckin sick of Christians trying to force their beliefs on everyone else. I could have used any other place christian scum have infected as an example.

[emmthreejonny]

@AntichristDemoncore I'm rather curious how some people continue to say they were "forced" to be Christians at this day and age. Proselytized yes that's natural but forced? Hardly so. Maybe its your own conscience.

[AntichristDemoncore]

@emmthreejonny indoctrination =/= choice

[emmthreejonny]

@AntichristDemoncore Fine. But I have chosen to believe.
