"content": "Given the current controversy surrounding the upcoming Assassin's Creed and its inclusion of a black samurai based on the historical figure Yasuke, I have decided to throw in my two cents.<br /><br />When it comes to history, the more primary sources you have, the better. In the way of Yasuke, there are few primary sources about him, leaving a great amount of speculation on his origins or his position within the history of Japan.<br /><br />The only two known primary sources that mention Yasuke are the Jesuit Missionaries and Oto Gyuichi, a historian and samurai in service to Oda Nobunaga. The issue here being; when it comes to one of the primary sources, the Jesuits, it becomes apparent that there is considerable lack of understanding of the Japanese culture.<br /><br />For example, according to the Jesuits, Yasuke was made a \"lord\" because he was given land, and from a Eurocentric view, this is correct, but when one considers that in Japanese court traditions of the time, one must have some form of property to have a title, and one must have a title to labor within a noble court.<br /><br />So, for Yasuke to be a direct servant of Lord Oda Nobunaga, he had to be granted land, so to have the title needed to enter into servitude. <br /><br />Now the question comes in: what was Yasuke's title.<br /><br />Among most Japanese scholars, it is believed Yasuke was granted the title of kosho. However, recently, even this has come into question, but for me to explain, I must go into detail about particular titles.<br /><br />A kosho is a specific title given to a specific type of servant under a lord, or \"daimyo.\"<br /><br />A kosho was typically a youth who, by birthright or lack of wealth, would not inherent his father's title of gokeninkabu, or \"samurai.\" The boy would enter into the service of a daimyo to earn this rank, whether by proof of ability or by earning enough money to buy his title.<br /><br />Should a kosho fail to earn the rank of samurai by time he becomes a young man, he can choose to buy into the ranks of the ashigaru and work their way up through combat, or drop out of the bushi (warrior) class entirely and become a common folk with the freedom to seek a trade of their choice.<br /><br />This was the unique flexibility of the kosho rank, being one that straddleds the line between bushi and the common people, as a kosho's position gives them both domestic and martial responsibilities. <br /><br />An example of domestic tasks would be to oversee the work of the tyuugenn or middle rank common servants. On the other hand, for martial responsibilities, a kosho was expected to act as a bodyguard to their daimyo, sometimes by literally being a human shield. A responsibility that was carried into the war campaigns of their daimyo.<br /><br />This brings up a question, Yasuke was not of a noble family, being a slave brought to Japan by the Jesuits. Meaning he was not entitled to receive the rank of kosho, but if not kosho, then what?<br /><br />Remember the rank mentioned above? The tyuugenn? There is speculation that Yasuke was given this particular rank.<br /><br />While considered a common title, tyuugenn can work in direct contact with a daimyo, and given that Oto Gyuichi mentioned that Yasuke occasionally carried Oda Nobunaga's tools, this brings a real possibility of Yasuke being a tyuugenn, especially since, despite his size and strength, he was given an armed escort in the form of a bodyguard to protect him when he went about his way within and without his duties. Hardly a testament of a hardened warrior, as some would believe.<br /><br />To further this point, Yasuke was given a \"tanto\" described as a decorative sword.<br /><br />Had Yasuke been a samurai, he would have been given a tachi or, at the very least, an uchigatana along with his short sword.<br /><br />A lot was thrown in there, so I will explain. A tachi is a type of long sword that is hung from the waist similar to a saber and was the primary sidearm of the bushi class throughout most of their history. An uchigatana is a sort of precurser to a katana and was considered of lower quality than the tachi, but was very common by the time of Yasuke's sojourn in Japan, even amoung samurai.<br /><br />Most interesting, however, was the word, or rather the use of the word \"tanto.\" A tanto in contemporary terms is a dagger, but during the time of Oto Gyuichi, a tanto was a term used for any short sword and could vary in length from that of a dagger to sort sword and anything in between. It wasn't until the Edo Era that a distinction was made between a tanto (dagger) and a wakizashi (short sword).<br /><br />So now come the question: was Yasuke given a dagger like tanto or a short sword style tanto, because the length of the tanto given could very well make the difference between whether Yasuke was a kosho or a tyuugenn.<br /><br />As for Yasuke's heritage or, rather, lack there of, being what would hold him back from receiving a title or kosho, it is important to remember whom he served, a daimyo well noted for his eccentric personality and his tendency to shrug off tradition.<br /><br />So, who was Yasuke? He was no samurai. That much we can deduce from the chores he was entrusted with, the gifts he was given, and his lack of a surname. He was a man in a foreign land, with strange traditions, in service to an eccentric lord, who had a rare opportunity to see first hand the shifting destiny of a whole country as fightening as it was, and to sell this man as more or less is to do a disservice to the life he lived.",
