And so Yukimura's last stand has commenced. I must say, as much as I have a weird feeling about how it's essentially over, I can only imagine what it was like for every samurai back then to just suddenly not have any reason to fight anymore in that moment.

If The Shogunate made a series on the bakumatsu period, I'd watch it

Just visited osaka castle and to imagine the death that occurred in the area is unimaginable. The fact the heads of the Osaka fighters were lined to Fushimi is fuckint insane. Thank you for teaching me about the history of this area.

When ieyasu heard that the toyotomi forces were getting ready for anotner attack.... YOU JUST DON'T KNOW WHEN TO QUIT DONT YOU.

It would be such a great plot twist if Date Masamune betrayed and joined with Yukimura to kill Ieyasu

Hard to believe this series is coming to an end, like all other good things. Thank you, Shogunate, for producing such an amazing documentary. It feels like a personal love letter to all samurai fans, as well as to all the fallen warriors of this warring states period. I look forward to what comes next, glad that I can be able to look back at this series with nothing but nostalgia and joy.

This has been one heck of a ride. From the days of fighting the emishi to the last stand at Osaka, it's been amazing to see the history of the samurai.
Thanks for the work so far~

The only time when I wake up, and see a new upload from the shogunate is like an honor that only the samurai and shinobi in the past will receive from the shogun. And only them will understand and other Japanese history nerds will appreciate the hard work you put in.
Thank you my shogunate.

This should have millions of views. You should make more money for this.

Man I remembered when I started watching this series like it was yesterday and to see it near it’s conclusion makes me appreciate the journey it took to get here…

@onaranayami 3 years ago

It should be remembered that Hideyori`s son was also Ieyasu`s grandson....

I really thought episode 62 was the last one I thought u left us with a cliff hanger 😅

@kuroakevizago 3 years ago

Waited this for a long time, thank you so much for your time and effort in this video.
Yukimura really fought valiantly in his last stand, really a goosebumps for sure if Ieyasu really slain by Yukimura.

I did not expect this when I woke up, but I am so glad to have watched this journey started just a few years ago reach it's conclusion.

@jlima5509 3 years ago

I loved that, for one last time, the thing that almost fucked ieyasu at the end was a sanada.

@tyrannicfool2503 3 years ago

OH I have been waiting for this. It seems the time to say goodbye to the Sengoku series is approaching, truly a fitting end I never knew how many engagements the summer siege had. One last climatic war to end the Sengoku period. Thank you for all your hard work, this truly is one of the best history contents on youtube.

@Buckyz-ef8hp 3 years ago

I have been on this series since episode 13, we have come a long way and I am proud and happy to see this final conclusion to the singoku period. Thank you very much for what you do

@Emily-86mc 3 years ago

It’s so cool to see it finally get this far. But also a little sad. I’ll just have to watch all of them over now. Again. 🤣🤣

I was late in discovering this channel, but I'd taken the time to watch every single video you have posted. Your videos are not only interesting and informative, the narration makes one feel as though he is living through the events. I am very grateful that you decided to do this. I look forward to your videos discussing the Edo period. I hope they are as interesting as the Sengoku ones.
