@Avocado Panda Some longer variants of Yari spears could be considered pikes, so I would say they did. And Yamabushi are sort of like Monk-hermits that live on mountains. They are a bit complex so I will just leave a link that has some great information for you. www.japanese-wiki-corpus.org/Buddhism/Yamabushi.html
During the Western Army's attack on Fushimi castle; where Torii Mototada was the deputy. The Shimazu expressed their willingness to join the Eastern Army and asked Torii to let them help defend the castle, but wasn't granted. The Shimazu then had no other choice but to join the Western Army. This account, along with their refusal to move upon Mitsunari's order during the Battle of Sekigahara, perhaps, convinced Ieyasu to spare the Clan of major punishment.
@@itsrye8001 This is a very interesting and popular story (it could also very well be true), yet it seems many historians over the past several decades claim it is probably false, and that Yoshihiro sided with Mitsunari from the start.
Have you thought of doing any videos on the Boshin war and the events that preceded it? I find the whole affair difficult to understand. Mostly the politics and gauging how advanced the Tokugawa (and the rest of Japan for that matter.) got before getting musket spammed by the Sat-Chō alliance.
The batshit insane Shimazu clan where everyone is a fierce warrior. And not to mention even as Damiyos they still personally go thick in the battle to fight instead of being tea drinking general.
@@edbagge ofc there are, a lot of the Sengoku Jidai clans are still around. I think the heir of the main line of the Oda clan is an olympic figure skating champion. I wonder what Oda Nobunaga would think :)
That's incredible, I must finish learning the language and visit. I feel like it would help my writing tremendously to learn about present Japan. I've studied Japanese history for 20 years, yet I know little of the present. Ps I imagine Nobunaga would be surprised his line continues to exist, considering his fate. Funny enough he's the main character in book 3 Legend of the Oda.
Fun fact: The current Emperor is actually the Great-great-grandson of the penultimate Daimyō of the Satsuma Domain, Shimazu Tadayoshi. One of Emperor Shōwa's daughters (the current Emperor's aunt) also married a descendant of the Shimazu as well. I'm not sure how closely related she & her husband are though.
When I was a kid and played Samurai Warriors. The time I fought Yoshihiro and his Shimazu Army, I know they are batshit crazy and very competitive. A strong impression that carved in my head. One of the clans that I really like.
A samurai clan whose warriors survive even through WW2, that's amazing! I want to see later the Sanada clan history, a small clan which even to this day have descendants!
@@aeoncalcos7830 Hiroyuki Sanada is not a descendant of Sanada clan, that's even not his real name, I heard. But I agree he has the looks of a samurai.
Man.. this is what I love about the Japanese. They honour their ancestors by keeping the surname in their family for centuries. And they are able to have an understanding of their family history..
Your wrong. Japanese people don't do that. Noble Families do that, and not just in Japan, everywhere. In fact, European noble families have older records about their ancestors then the japanese.
@@timokohler6631 lol Gaijin If you don't know, sit down. Even ordinary families place importance on preserving the names of their ancestors. Some even adopt boys from other families to preserve their name. That's why, not long ago, giving birth to a boy was considered important. This applies not only to noble family but also to ordinary farmers and merchant families. Even today in Japan, family lineage and family names are important. In every Japanese family, the family name and family crest are passed down through the family. Every family in your country doesn't have a family crest, right?
@@timokohler6631 You also make comments that degrade Japan in other comments. Why do you watch videos like this even though you hate Japan? Even if you say bad things about Japan here, Germany or your country will not become popular.
something i found a bit interesting that, during both Kamakura and Sengoku Jidai, Shimazu Clan was quite known for its solid experience in land battle (since their exposure to guns and experience in many invasion, notably Mongol Invasion). However, Shimazu led Satsuma domain, would dominated Japanese Imperial Navy (since Togo Heihachiro came from Satsuma) and its reversal also happen to ther fellow counterpart. Mori clan of Choshu domain
I'm so happy i subscribed to this channel. Always looking forward to new videos from you! Well researched and sticking to the facts without much fanfare. Keep up the good work. I'll definitely want to become a patreon!
At Sekigahara the Shimazu breakout at the end of the battle came close to overrunning Tokugawa's camp. If the timing had been slightly different they might have killed Tokugawa and changed Japanese history forever.
Oh my god!! That Shimazu theme from NA Iron Triangle really brings back memories!! My first ever completed campaign in my first ever NA game. This game makes me even more interested in other less known clans and figures in Sengoku era 😁😁
I was lucky to have a chance to visit the Shimazu estate and gardens of Sengan-en right before the start of the pandemic. It was really interesting to learn about their history and the fact that they had one of the largest libraries of foreign books in the country for most of the Edo period and played politics with a lot of Europeans. It was clear that they used their sort of salutatory neglect from the Tokugawa shoguante as a way to really build their own power and independence. I was hoping for a mention of the Anglo-Satsuma war and how it later led to all mikans imported into the UK to be referred to as 'satsumas'. What really stood out for me though, was the fact that it was someone's job to inspect the poop of the head of the household everyday (though it was likely a more common practice, just that they made sure to let tourists know that fact). How they treated the Ryukyuans . . . not really mentioned all that much for obvious reasons and their control of the sugar that they produced for them.
"It's time I put you aside for a while Shogun 2, I love you, but I need to play more Rome and Three kingdoms." *The Shogunate uploads a new clan video.* "Aww shit here we go again"
At this point in time- I think the world can go as far as to consider the Shimazu clan/family as the "Guardians of Japan". Throughout the history and entirety of their existence- They've fought so hard for their family's survival and yet later in history leave a mark on the country that would influence the country on maintaining traditional identity but also a sense of proud national pride and patriotism even as Feudalism ended.
The Shimazu habit of retreating offensively when losing a battle applied even to the Imjin War, at Noryang Point. Claiming Admiral Yi’s life while at it…
I definitely recommend reading manga Satsuma Gishiden by Hirata Hiroshi it depicts Shimazu's culture, traditions and life of samurai in poverty very well
During my hospital internship, I spotted their mon on the portable x-ray when I was pushing it in the lift. I knew that family crest was familiar since I used to play Shogun 2. 😂😂
I wanted to ask if you knew of any good comprehensive books on the Sengoku Jidai. Most seem too focused on the 3 unifiers and ignore most of the time before that and areas outside of it. It's alright if they're in Japanese, though I'm still intermediate so it'd be a while before I could read those
In the future could you do videos on some of these lesser known (at least in the west) battles like Kazikihara. Okitawanate or Mimigawa? So many cool battles with such little info in English. What is so impressive about the Shimazu is that they regularly destroyed armies multiples of the Shimazu side..
Tokugawa, Oda, Toyotomi (descendant of Hideyoshi's sister), Ishida, Asai, and Shimazu. These bloodlines are inherited by the current Japanese Imperial family
Man i cant wait for the -Usagi clan (Uesugi) -Hyrule clan (Hojo) -One that Sekiro single handedly destroyed clan (Ashina) -Named after a fruit clan (Date) -One that switch sides and name (Tokugawa) - One that's name after a Conan character (Mori) - Y tu Brutus clan (Oda) - One clan to rule them all (Ashikaga) - Monk Monk revolution clan (Ikkio Ikki) - No reversed Uno card on you clan (Imagawa)
It would have been interesting if you could have explained how the army navy divide in the japanese imperial military came to be with the shimazu and the mori clan competing to become more dominante than the other faction
I have a question. is the mori clan still around, since I think I may have connection to it, my great grand ma and aunts are all from Hiroshima and my Great aunts all Hibakusha and I am just wondering since my last name is Mori.
I’m pretty sure the Mori was one of the big Imperial Aligned Clans during the Boshin War, and that was only a 150ish years ago, so unless the entire clan was wiped out during WW2 or something I’d think they still be around.
Ahh the legendary Shimazu of Satsuma and Hyuga All started with Tadahisa The alleged son of Yoritomo My favorites being Nariakira, Yoshihisa, Takahisa, Toshisa, Yoshihiro OK after this Please do the Hosokawa, Inoue, Chosokabe, Nitta, Rokakku or even the Nanbu but more so The UESUGI and their founder Shigefusa who have ties with the Ashikaga Bakufu Since shigefusa is the grandfather of Takauji All 32 Shimazu heads are profound in their own way
Maybe the Ogasawara clan? I was told relatives of the Takeda but was defeated by Shingen. Family survived till the end of the Samurai era, my Great-grandfather moved to Hawaii he was educated and found good work. I have been told to survive the family was on both sides of a few battles. One of my ancestors employed Miyamoto Musashi, I have been told.
I haven't played as a southern/far western clan in total war Shogun 2 yet. I wonder if I should play the Mori or Shimazu. Chokosabe is also interesting.
The Shimazu clan pretends to be their own pedigree. It was around the 15th century AD that Shimazu began to claim that Minamoto no Yoritomo was a illegitimate child. The first Shimazu clan, Koremune Tadahisa , is said to have been born in 1179, but is now suspicious from the literature of the 12th century. Tadahisa was appointed as Satsuma Mamoru around 1185, but if so, he would have been appointed governor of Satsuma at the age of six, which is impossible. Other sources indicate that Tadahisa participated in an event at the Kyoto Imperial Palace in 1179, suggesting that his birth year was in the early 1160s.
In the early 1160s, Minamoto no Yoritomo was young and was exiled to Izu. There is no point of contact between Minamoto no Yoritomo and Koremune Tadahisa. Common sense suggests that Minamoto no Yoritomo and Koremune Tadahisa have no parent-child relationship.

Can't help feeling sentimental and nostalgic for my first Shogun 2 campaign
Was my first as well!
Best starting location
Gotta fire it up tonight and try another Legendary Shimazu
my favorite clan to play, shimazu are bad ass
Ah yes
The batshit insane Shimazu clan where everyone is a fierce warrior. And not to mention even as Damiyos they still personally go thick in the battle to fight instead of being tea drinking general.
@@Pravlord haha yes that the one I was hinted on
@@Pravlord jumps onto six yaris just to shoot naomasa

@@HungTran-gz5em Now just imagine having a prof called Sanada or Ishida when your last name is Tokugawa
That’s amazing the Shimazu family is 800 years old and still going

One of Emperor Shōwa's daughters (the current Emperor's aunt) also married a descendant of the Shimazu as well. I'm not sure how closely related she & her husband are though.
Why do people always say “fun fact” before saying something trivial and boring?
Shimazu Toyohisa, remembering "The Drifters" Anime 🤣, thanks The Shogunate
"I love the smell of conflict in the morning"
- Grandpa Yoshihiro
underrated gem
Shimazu Toyohisa never died, he just got transported to another elves world.
I love Drifters
Oh wow, the Shimazu clan is indeed a powerful and amazing clan. Can't wait to see the great content of the other clan too.
Thank you for this. As a descendant of the Shimazu clan, I found this really interesting!
That is amazing!
When I was a kid and played Samurai Warriors. The time I fought Yoshihiro and his Shimazu Army, I know they are batshit crazy and very competitive. A strong impression that carved in my head. One of the clans that I really like.
Same! Has been afraid of Yoshihiro when I was trying to play Ginchiyo's story 😅
A samurai clan whose warriors survive even through WW2, that's amazing!
I want to see later the Sanada clan history, a small clan which even to this day have descendants!
Hiroyuki Sanada is showin the world what a Sanada warrior actually look like
@@aeoncalcos7830 Hiroyuki Sanada is not a descendant of Sanada clan, that's even not his real name, I heard. But I agree he has the looks of a samurai.
Speaking of WW2... It funny that now Shimatsu Toyohisa team up with WW2 Ace Fighter “Captain Kanno Destroyer Naoshi” to fought Blacklord in Isekai...
The Shimazu Clan is truly fascinating
Gotta watch it later after work but I can't wait to see it :3
I love that you made a video about the Shimazu, I was always interested in them, your channel deserves more and more subscribers :)
Great video's about the Samurai's and their clan histories. Really interesting stuff. Thanks for sharing 🙏
Nice, I was waiting for this. One of the most underrated clans of the period imo.
Man.. this is what I love about the Japanese. They honour their ancestors by keeping the surname in their family for centuries. And they are able to have an understanding of their family history..

I like how all these centuries, they just won't let go of that "hisa" element XD
Tell that to your pal Shimazu YoshiHIRO.
The leader of the Date clan has inherited the name of "mune" from generation to generation.
current head of the Date clan is ''Date Yasumune''
In the Shimazu clan, the name "hisa" has been taken over intermittently.
@@wadepsilon01For Tokugawa it is either "Ie" or "Yoshi".
Thank you. This was most informative

What?! Drifters AND Last Samurai?! AND STILL ALIVE TO THIS DAY?! Shimazu wins everybody, thats game
I love history. To learn from You, makes me smarter. Arigato Sensei, Your student is very happy.
Ah fellow Iron Triangle Fans I love that game so much, all the unique clans have their theme I especially like the Uesugi theme
I actually share some ancestry with this clan, so I have always had an attachment and obsession with it!
That is awesome!
me too!! i found out recently that my great grandmother was related to minamoto no yoritomo and the shimazu clan

One of the powerful daimyo family. My ancestor is upper class samurai of the Tsugaru clan and part of the daimyō's family. I love daimyō system.

Yes the Mori family is still in existence! It appears the current head of the Mori family is someone by the name of Mori Motoyoshi.
ah nice I am glad that my family may have a connection, thank you for this info!
my big sister just confirmed my great great great grand ma (from my moms side) was apart of a branch of the Aki Mori!!
Ahh the legendary Shimazu of Satsuma and Hyuga
All started with Tadahisa
The alleged son of Yoritomo
My favorites being Nariakira, Yoshihisa, Takahisa, Toshisa, Yoshihiro
OK after this
Please do the Hosokawa, Inoue, Chosokabe, Nitta, Rokakku or even the Nanbu but more so
The UESUGI and their founder Shigefusa who have ties with the Ashikaga Bakufu
Since shigefusa is the grandfather of Takauji
All 32 Shimazu heads are profound in their own way

I haven't played as a southern/far western clan in total war Shogun 2 yet. I wonder if I should play the Mori or Shimazu. Chokosabe is also interesting.
Shimazu Nariakira is the GOAT.
when you say "Before the outbreak of WW2), do you mean by Western reckoning, or before Japan invaded China?
Can you do a video on the different types of sashimonos soldiers wore into battle and what were their specific purposes?
