That's a conquistador, and these were brown manlets with black eyes and hair and didn't wear plate armor because it was too hot in Spain.

Yea it was never 60 vs 600. The first skirmish that happened on the Cape Borgardor near Cagayan was on the Flagship but it was 260 wako not 600. Which is still impressive enough but we dont know how much actually died considering they just say few (the Wako definitely lost most of their men) and the captain of the seized mast died as well. It's impressive enough but not even the first hand accounts seem sure of how many there were in the two fights.

Honestly Japan lasted a long time as a sovereign nation despite having bad weapon quality. literally until Perry came in the 1850s

It honestly is sad to read about now. Because you realise you missed a rare opportunity historically. It still exists in some ways, like if you're from a rich, white country and you go to, say, Africa, you could make a name for yourself, get lots of land, multiple wives, etc. But that time is fast passing for any place you'd actually WANT to go to. Unless you're rich. But as late as the 1950s you had stories of people from some shit town in rainy England going Hong Kong and basically living the high life in a huge house with servants and stuff.. Doesn't happen anymore unless you're loaded.
