Read full review on AniList →Yasuke is kinda cool sometimes, but incredibly boring otherwise. Robots and magic can't save a bland script.

I went into Yasuke a bit weary but excited. I liked the last Netflix Original, DOTA: Blood of the Dragon despite its flaws, and was hoping Yasuke would have at the very least the same level of quality.
Unfortunately, instead of the Champloo inspired thrill r…

Read full review on AniList →What we have here is kind of rough and mediocre, with a cool aesthetic and likable elements to keep Yasuke afloat
Yasuke is an odd mixed bag. On the one hand, there are several likable aspects about the characters and the audiovisuals, making the show at least somewhat entertaining, On the other, it’s kind of a dumb, heavy-handed, rushed mess. LeSean Thomas’ 2nd anime showed some promise on the outset, taking o…
Read full review on AniList →Yasuke suffers greatly under tonal inconsistency that could’ve worked better if everyone pursued the same goal
_Rest in Peace Chadwick Boseman, who was to depict the character in the now-canceled film adaptation_
I’ve seen a fair amount of disorganized tv-shows, and as much as I can’t help but appreciate the post-modern themes of ‘_Darling in the Franxx_’, the second half of the series is certainly not stru…

Hoooo boy. First review, so go easy on me.
_Plot_
When I first heard that the historical story of Yasuke was getting adapted into an anime, I was extremely hyped. I mean come on, a story about the first Black Samurai?? WIth MAPPA, LeSean Thomas, and LaKeith Stanfield?? It sounds like a banger in th…

on hearing that yasuke’s story was getting an anime adaptation, i was truly excited. i’d heard good things about lesean thomas, and hearing that flying lotus was producing the soundtrack…well, you got me. i knew a little about yasuke, he’s a compelling historical figure as the first black samurai, s…
Read full review on AniList →A series with potential that tried too hard to be unique and suffered for it.
“The past informs our future. It shows who we are.”
- Yasuke, Episode 2
_Yasuke_ is a classic case of the writers having a lot of ideas and not knowing when to stop. Even the briefest summary of the key elements that are at work in this series include samurai, feudal conflict, religion, robots, su…
Read full review on AniList →If wasted potential had a physical form, this would be it
If wasted potential had a physical form, this would be it. The content of this story is so large that it has the potential of creating multiple seasons, 24 episodes could just be a prologue like in Vinland saga, instead, everything is squashed into just six episodes. Multiple things go unexplained,…
Read full review on AniList →Yasuke feels like a blend of fast-foods which want to forcefully leave your body.
Yasuke is your typical samurai story where nothing of worth really happens, but there is a lot of stuff happening on screen so that it makes you think that things happen. It’s a generic story about a warrior losing his place and having to learn to live a simple life, but then the bad baddies come, a…

Yasuke is ............a pretty weird show that exists. It's not great but ...y'know its not awful. I think my enjoyment of the show played a huge factor in my overall score. Don't get me wrong though, i still have problems with Yasuke.

I had seen this in passing on Netflix and was curious so I added it to my list. And when I read it was a Samurai anime, I had to watch it. It seems CGI a bi…
