Original Note:
While Yasuke was indeed a historical person that existed, he was never a samurai, but a Servant and Retainer and then later a koshō (小姓). There is also no historical sources he was ever called the "African Samurai" https://www.ndl.go.jp/kaleido/entry/14/2.html https://www.huffingtonpost.jp/entry/yasuke_jp_609347f7e4b09cce6c26a9b2
