    ^ As if this conclusion wasn't satisfying. The Black Knight would be so proud!

    Of course, everyone ignores the other possibility, wherein knights and samurai become bestest buds.

    When you have 2 things, before you mix them up in the stew, you have to test which is the better ingredient.

    Thus, if you wrote a fanfiction where King Arthur teamed up with Samurai, I would read it...

    If it weren't for the 70's film quality, this could be the denouement of a Deadliest Warrior episode. Well, except for the helmets. What's up with those?

    ^^^^^^ 8D

    The logic bomb in your fanfic idea, Clocky, is that King Arthur predates samurai as we know them. /knightwank
    Although there was some degree of trade between Japan and Europe beginning in the 1500s, so it's not completely unthinkable that a knight and samurai would meet, even if there's no account of them duking it out officially (although Japan got its ass kicked by Sweden once, apparently).

    Using the Wikipedia emoticon list is cheating, y'know.

    That's not the Wikipedia emoticon list. That's a PMMM fandom thing. I learned how to type that way back in February while the show was still airing and I still cared about it.

    It's a Kyuubey smile.

    I'd like to see at least one fight between a gunslinger (Or any warrior profession with a gun for that matter) go up against a samurai and have bullets act realistically: They travel too fucking fast for the samurai to block with a sword, even if he blocked with a sword, his sword would become warped/damaged/flat-out broken, an in-flight bullet is impossible to be sliced through with a katana, any gunslinger worth his salt could shoot the samurai while he's charging forth without the samurai being able to sidestep around bullets and shit, a bullet travels too fast for the naked eye to track it and thus a samurai could not successfully block it with his sword, etc.

    Basically, almost every modern samurai fictional work is bullshit.

    ^^ Needs moar elaboration.

    ^ In reality, samurai (or any equivalent) were not well-known for blindly charging into gunfire. Samurai themselves were known to use guns regularly during the Meiji conflicts and, although considered distasteful, they employed them as early as the 16th century.

    Nasu is the writer for TYPE-MOON, the creators of Fate/Stay Night. Which featured King Arthur. And a samurai. ...And a lot of other historical figures, actually.
