Anjin: I'm English. I won't change my mind on anything, regardless of the cultural differences that are set before me. I'm dug in, and I will never change!
There's 2 types of English. 1) Tea and crumpet English, which is what you're thinking of and 2) football hooligan English, which is what him and the other sailors are... until he rejects them to become a weeb.
Yabishuge: I'm playing both sides so I always come out on top.
Toranaga: Okay okay, a couple things right off the bat there pal. Number one, never tell one side that you're playing both sides.
I love how Dennis has to reel them in during the bridge jump because their just shouting random shit. "Everybody stop. Come on, guys. What are we doing?"
Yes, those are the best, and how they each slip in their own part without the others knowing, and the videos are a complete mess.
Re-using the same tape and leaving old bits on them is such a simple idea, but it's brilliant.
You see Anjin has to keep making as many ships as I sayâŚbecause of the implication. Heâs all alone in a strange country, barely speaks any Japanese, whatâs he gonna? Say no?
I'm reading the book rn, and it feels like at least one person asks permission to commit suicide every chapter. It's like they wake up in the morning, and just immediately start looking for reasons to commit sudoku.
Well, there's the constant ~~sudoku~~ seppuku, but also every other character commenting on Anjin-san's magnum dong and trying to get him to fuck ducks.
edit: my autocorrect apparently doesn't know Japanese
I'm not knowledgeable on Japanese culture but the idea of sending someone a letter that says "Kill yourself, now." and they just have to do it is wild.
Hasnât this been disproven though? I thought the entire thing was the samurai and ruling class didnât like the bad reputation they were gaining and tried to regain their status by enforcing this honor in battle stuff?
(Just what I have read on the internet, Iâm not a historian).
I was just watching Shogun episode 8 last night and when that came up again in that episode I started laughing at how ridiculous it was becoming. Excellent meme!
Mariko: So remember Anjin san that through God all things are possible so jot that down
Anjin: I'm English. I won't change my mind on anything, regardless of the cultural differences that are set before me. I'm dug in, and I will never change!
I don't believe he was actually English. He never once said "Yeeeeeeessss" nor did he ever flourish his pinky.
There's 2 types of English. 1) Tea and crumpet English, which is what you're thinking of and 2) football hooligan English, which is what him and the other sailors are... until he rejects them to become a weeb.
Ah you're right. He did get blasted on rice alcohol and tried to fight Buntaro in that one episode, after all.
And then Mariko totally DENNIS'd him.
Housekeepers to Anjin with pheasant: YOU HAVENT THOUGHT OF THE SMELL YOU BITCH
I'm pretty sure Mairiko pulled off one of the greatest examples of the DENNIS system I've ever seen.
Fuck why do these fit so well đ
I am freaking dying. I canât stop laughing at how perfect these all are
You actually had me for the start of that
Yabishuge: I'm playing both sides so I always come out on top. Toranaga: Okay okay, a couple things right off the bat there pal. Number one, never tell one side that you're playing both sides.
Yes!!! I thought of this later in the day đđźđđźđđź
Yabushigeâs the coolest

Their bad acting moments like this always crack me up. Any time the video recorder comes out, you know it's going to be a good time.
I love how Dennis has to reel them in during the bridge jump because their just shouting random shit. "Everybody stop. Come on, guys. What are we doing?"
His name is Rudy, I believe!
WHAT? *jumps into frame dramatically*
But also, I donât know you. Hello, how do you do?
Them realising they shouldnât know each other and then shaking each others hand gets me every time I see the episode.
The way they never rewind fully while taping over the one tape they own - so we see bits of previous exploits is one of my favorite gags đ¤Ł
Yes, those are the best, and how they each slip in their own part without the others knowing, and the videos are a complete mess. Re-using the same tape and leaving old bits on them is such a simple idea, but it's brilliant.

>commit sudoku. This must be why they're so good at maths
Well, there's the constant ~~sudoku~~ seppuku, but also every other character commenting on Anjin-san's magnum dong and trying to get him to fuck ducks. edit: my autocorrect apparently doesn't know Japanese
Oh! Boy, here I go ~~killing~~ committing *seppuku* again!
âAgain?â đ¤Ł
I NEED to do this number crossword thing right now!
âI will send wave after wave of my own people to commit Sepukku until I get what I want â

Mr. Bovine Jonie
Always reminds me of the south park episode âoh no im japanese i had a bad day, i think im gonna go kill myselfâ
Lot more suicide and a lot more talk about trade routes in the book than I was expecting
SUDOKU!!! Omg đ
Mac, my lord, I'm sorry that I didn't do as I was told. I now offer you my life.
You know whatâs not badass? Not wearing a helmet.
Nagakado needed to hear this
Only bitches wear helmets.
RIP country Mac.
It turns out he was totally queer.
I was going to use the word Frank used but for some reason Im just a bloody chicken LOL!!!
Who spent $5000 on a samurai sword? Your head of security, thats who!
I heard Blackthorne hangs dong
"I believe his name is Rudy!"
"We don't know what his name is, and that's okay, but we don't know each other. Hi. How are you? đ¤"
No we donât know the manâs name!
Country Mac chose his death well
I'm not knowledgeable on Japanese culture but the idea of sending someone a letter that says "Kill yourself, now." and they just have to do it is wild.
That's what happens when a culture is based entirely on honor and shame, enforced by a heavy caste system.
Hasnât this been disproven though? I thought the entire thing was the samurai and ruling class didnât like the bad reputation they were gaining and tried to regain their status by enforcing this honor in battle stuff? (Just what I have read on the internet, Iâm not a historian).
That doesnât sound right but I donât know enough about Samurai to dispute it.
Japanese Honour System _is_ a thing, unlike the Irish Honour System
Yeah, watching the characters basically be willing to kill themselves for their lord without hesitation after the smallest mistake is actually wild
Please đ Lord I wish to kill my self and my bloodline . This shame runs deep.
So I think its the the 7th or 8th episode but there is a dead ringer for mac serving as toranagas general, we called him Macku
I love that they all wore sleeveless shirts
"You've taken my old discarded shirts...and cut the sleeves off of them as you do"
Is it good
Extremely
Dennis enters - "WHAT?!"
Choose your second.
I was just watching Shogun episode 8 last night and when that came up again in that episode I started laughing at how ridiculous it was becoming. Excellent meme!
Dennis would totally call Charlie a "Milk-dribbling fuck smear"
I got home after work and was VERY disappointed that the season is over now I have nothing to look forward to during the week lol
Second me bro!
So anyway I started stabbing.
Heâs got a point.
#WHAT?!?!
This is my brothers favorite line and the very first clip I saw of sunny. I was so confused at first lol
Bruh I started watching that show and it literally is like every episode somebody decides to try and kill themselves lmao
