Imagine if a Japanese guy came to America and learned how to gunfight and then became one of the most notorious outlaws in the wild west who could draw faster than anyone.

Replace America with early 17th century Europe and that's basically the plot to pic related.
I mean imagine a 6 foot tall large framed white man fighting 5 foot medieval japs. Or someone like Charlemagne dropping in who was 6'5 and utterly massive even in his own country, he'd obviously become the best warrior over there.
He and Yoshitsune had made up their minds to die, though. It wasn't like Benkei got caught out and died unprepared, he stood on that bridge intending to fight until he died.
Japs >short >dark hair >dark eyes >obsessed with “muh honor”
Chinks >short >dark hair >dark eyes >obsessed with “muh face”
They had to make him outlandish looking, or else the duel at the end would just be two clones fighting eachother

You guys didn't even watch the movie, the blond guy is some european/scandi mercenary who barely speaks chinese and ends up betraying them in the end anyway. He's not supposed to represent china
Luo Lang was so badass. when i brought up Sword of the Stranger to Scott McNeil at a con he was genuinely shocked someone brought it up cause no one ever does, he thinks i'm the first to do so.
The guy who wrote this is a western film nerd into New Hollywood and Blockbuster shit, that's why you like it.
It's also why War in the Pocket is more like a western war film than a Japanese one.
Why would japs make this?

And then he's only brought down by a chinaman who traveled to America and became a bounty hunter.
Sounds comfy.
And his legacy was ignored because of American racism. Sounds legit.
Typical American just has to take a cool concept and make it cringe

Dammit I looked at the thumbnail. Now I'm fated to turn into a troon. Frick you, OP
>implying you weren't one already
Who would do such a thing? Go onto the internet and lie?
These threads are low effort trash bait to draw out the truly pathetic and moronic dregs like these
"people", but Sword of the Stranger is a perfect film. A 10/10, 5/5, 100/100. Perfect movie
It’s decent. Redline is a better movie.
>Make an anime
>Want a Chinese Antagonist
>Need to differentiate him from the Japanese Protagonist
>Make him Blonde, Blue-Eyed, Tall and White
Lmao
Lost Roman legions theory chud

Benkei the Sohei priest was over seven feet tall. And they killed him with a hail of arrows.

Anon, the protagonist is also a foreigner. He just dies his hair to fit in.

To be fair. Japanese anime guys do Hollywood better than how Hollywood does Hollywood.
>Anime can't be kin-
g because it's not human, it's a cartoon
What are some good samurai anime/manga? Is Rurouni Kenshin aimed at adults? It seems fairly childlike.
