Okay, Jack might of bee the second... but its a story, history doesn't matter that much

He was the "first unifier" or how do you say it in English. Pretty important man.

They really didn't look like this!:( Chnu:( At least make Musashi taller and bulkier! And I hope you won't forget about Toyotomi Hideyoshi

Depends on what year he made the title. The first white Samurai might be Anjin Miura, formerly William Adams, who received his title at the start of the 17th century,. So, Musashi would be 20 something years old.

Tempestfury

Well. Jack was the first WHITE Samurai, right?

Mask

Ooh, Musashi is going to get a mention! Looking forward to this.

Looking over the book synopsis, it seems Jack Fletcher is a bit late to become the first gaijin samurai. That title goes to Yasuke - serving under Oda Nobunaga himself - the first foreigner samurai, who was actually an African who came with a group of Jesuits. It is definitely worth reading about him; he was a really cool guy. I know he didn't impact the period much, but I hope he gets a brief mention in the Sengoku Jidai series.

I'm curious why Hideyoshi isn't in this shot, but he is associated with Oda so I can understand why.

Zachary Taylor

You're correct, there is an anime named after him, dozens actually. As well as games!

I can't wait to learn more about Miyamoto Musashi! After he was in the Young Samuari series, I've been wanting to learn more about this duel-wielding master!
