Pray. I will not listen, but I will laugh at you
You know Yabu’s nephew had to have told Toranaga that Yabu said that about him. How else would Toranaga be able to repeat that same line?"Why tell a dead man the future?"
Cold….ice cold….

Did you accidentally click on the "dubbed" version in Hulu?
He was a "privateer"...but his journal showed that he was mass murdering villagers in the Philippines.
So, the Spanish, Portuguese, and native Filipinos would DEFINITELY consider him a pirate...and so would their Japanese allies.
Nah, I don't have Hulu; the site I usually watch Shogun on just didn't have subtitles.
I just ended up watching it on TV instead.
Shogun's Lord Yabushige, Tadanobu Asano, Talks About the Emotional Series Finale
“Death is the biggest moment we have as human beings,” says the actor, who turned a scheming warlord into a fan-favorite character.
He was in the first 3 MCU Thor movies (his character gets killed in Thor: Ragnarok by Hela, lol).Shogun's Lord Yabushige, Tadanobu Asano, Talks About the Emotional Series Finale

I need to see him in more big-time roles. He's a good actor.

Check the history of how the Portuguese/Spanish got control of those island. Mass murder is involved
He was working for the Dutch and the Dutch were at war at with the Portuguese.
Spain and Portugal colonized the Phillipines . Isn’t that piracy? Those weren’t European lands and water to use and profit from.
Why do you think so many Filipinos and such have Latin like last names? The Portuguese/Catholic church were dominant in the area.
Blackthorne fighting a Dutch war isn’t piracy.

My point wasn't that they were good...it was that from the Japanese point of view he would be considered a pirate, since the Portuguese are officially their allies.

I wasn’t making a determination of good or bad.
I’m saying murder, stealing, and fighting don’t a pirate make. Everyone was doing it. It’s a trade war. Emphasis on war.
The only thing that separates a pirate, privateering, and an official military navy are those differences in things like papers. Attacking a vessel without could get you executed.
From the churches perspective the Japanese are idiot savages to be converted ( not alies really) and from the Japanese view they are barbarians. That’s not what either were.
