In this video we examine a great new essay "Togoku no Bugu" written by Gunsen History which details arms, armor, and fighting styles of samurai throughout eastern Japan during the Tensho era!

Check out the essay for yourself here: https://www.academia.edu/115026184/T%C5%8Dgoku_No_Bugu_%E6%9D%B1%E5%9B%BD%E3%81%AE%E6%AD%A6%E5%85%B7_Study_Notes_An_essay_on_the_gear_of_a_Samurai_from_the_T%C5%8Dgoku_regions_during_the_Tensh%C5%8D_era
