Who was the last Samurai
It often happens that when we think of the last samurai, we come to the image of Tom Cruise as the protagonist of the blockbuster film that bears that name. Although it is an entertaining and dramatic movie, it is not very faithful to the story.
The last samurai, historically, was Saigo Takamori . He was an intellectual, politician, and leader of the Satsuma Han, in present-day Kagoshima Prefecture, during the late Edo period and early Meiji period.
During this time, Japan was forced to open its doors to trade and foreign influence by the Western imperial powers, with which it signed commercial and legal treaties that harmed Japanese society. Many were very dissatisfied with these agreements and the abuses they received from citizens of these Western powers.
The government was led by the Shogun, Tokugawa , who was losing much of his popularity due to such treaties and other controversial decisions. Saigo Takamori was openly against the decisions of the government and had the support of his community, so after several incidents, battles and alliances, they overthrew the Shogunate government and established a new form of government with the Meiji Emperor at the head.

"Tell me how he died."
"I'm going to tell you how he lived."
Okay now I'm crying D: I finally watched The Last Samurai for the first time today and I loved everything about it.
Except for the stupid stupid romance.
#and except for the romanticisation of samurai but at least that made a good story#I also would have loved a title drop about Katsumoto#just to make sure that everyone gets that katsumoto was the last samurai and not the american captain#because people do be stupid#last samurai

He didn't know Kya was with child.#Katara never knew her father. Her mother died at childbirth and her grandmother raised her in the village.#Kanna taught her how to be a healer and told her to always hide her waterbending. When Katara was fourteen her grandmother died from illness#Katara was safe. She had peace. But she wasn't happy.
