Let’s talk about a man that is as much legend as he is real: Miyamoto Musashi. You either know him as the greatest swordsman ever, the inspiration for half your favorite anime, or the philosopher you’re trying to shape your life after. Personally, I know him as a dude who caught his first body at age 13, and who didn’t stop until he increased that number drastically over 61 undefeated duels. Let’s tell the truth about Miyamoto Musashi, a story that also has to include his greatest rival: Sasaki Kojiro.

Notes:
I don’t have a lot of notes with this video, but I do want to point out that to this day, both Miyamoto Musashi and Sasaki Kojiro are forever immortalized with a statue on Ganryu Island, and also within everyday pop culture:
Dark Souls features Kojiro’s sword.
Vagabond, tells the tale of Miyamoto Musashi and devotes large portions to Kojiro
Jesse and James from Pokemon were originally called Musashi and Kojiro, League of Legend’s Yasuo and Yone are inspired by the two sword masters as well, and of course, Record of Ragnarok has Kojiro battling the god Poseidon.

Also, as you can probably tell, this video — and my previous video — were a bit shorter than my videos usually are. That's simply because, for one, these topics were easier to cover in less time, but also... all those videos that were thirty minutes to an hour long... they were taking a toll, man. I'm not gonna lie. So expect more videos in the 10-25 minute range, because it just really makes my life a whole lot easier. Hope y'all understand.

Support:
I also hope you all like the new art style, inspired by ancient Japanese art. Personally... I really love it.
