Rather than nitpicking or complaining about bad things, he focused entirely on educating. What a wonderful mindset he has.
-
“The man dies without so much as a final word. It is wonderful” - Kaito Suiju
-
"I saw this movie 58 years ago, when I was 16" this dude is 74 years old?! I would have guessed 54 tops, he looks amazing.
-
“I saw this film as a young boy and it changed my life. Based on this film I dedicated my life to the art of the samurai. 8/10.”
-
I love how wholesome he is, whenever he sees a nearly impossible maneuver hes always just like ‘yeah that guy must be very skilled’
-
Expectation: "This is pure BS!" Reality: "This is a very difficult move. He must be very skilled."
-
Just a note, Insider. The thumbnail of this video seems to have Kaito Sujiu mirrored (as in flipped horizontally). This makes him appear to be wearing the kimono with the right side over the left, which is only worn in such manner by the dead. I think it would be best to correct the thumbnail to properly portray and respect Kaito Sujiu.

I've watched a few of these "how real" videos with Tom Cruise movies, and in every one of them the experts praised his movements. Say what you will about the man - 'cause make no mistake, he's a bit unhinged - he really puts a lot of work into his art.
-
I love how even if you can tell he doesn’t always approve of what he is seeing, he still focuses on what he finds impressive or good.
-
“[Tom Cruise’s] movements truly look like those of a samurai.” What a compliment!
-
I am Japanese, but I can feel the majesty of his atmosphere and aura. He is calm and undisturbed, and he praises and develops others. He is a true samurai.
-
Compared this to other "experts" react only to brag about their own skills, he is very respectful and humble. Real master here 🙇🏻
-
Take "This would barely be possible." Filter through an immense amount of dignity and humility. Get "They must be very skilled."
-
”If he can do that, he must really be skilled!" -- The Japanese way of saying "BUUUULLLLSHIIIIITTTT"
-
As someone who trained under a private master, I am in love with this man. He’s entirely focused on education instead of nitpicking and gives a great analysis of the situation. I love it. He says all the right things and is full of facts. I can’t state how much better it gets as you watch.
-
Fun fact: Kenshin Himura is based on a true Hitokiri during Late Edo period named Kawakami Gensai. A highly skilled swordsman and one of the four most notable assassins of the bakumatsu era.
-
How is it a man can command such respect just by sitting and talking? This has been my favorite one of these I believe.
-
In Japan it is considered rude to be negative or critical of a lot of things, Especially on TV. He wouldn't know that he even could or was supposed to be critical of these films. It is in the culture to just focus on the positive aspects.
-
I like how he mentions the "noren" cloth can only be cut vertically, the attention to detail is amazing. A small thing most of us would miss.
-
This was an amazing episode. The expert doesn't criticize or belittle even the most obvious obscurities. Instead, he provides lessons on the right things they do and educates. The positivity of this episode make this one of my favorite in this type of series.
