>anemoia (uncountable) (neologism, uncommon) Nostalgia for a time or a place one has never known

Shiet, I thought I was the only one. Read 65% of the book now and I'm loving it so far. Already downloaded all his other novels and can't wait to read them.

Is it actually true that there's a part where a woman wants to see the MC's erection just because he's a gaijin or are people just shitposting?

The original series from 1980 is the one you want to watch.

Far from the only one. There's a third.

>>Fag actor for Blackthorne

That's rich. There's a scene in the 80s series where he's offered boys instead of women, and he acts all offended.

Dogshit book for faggots.

You don't understand what noble savage means if you think it could be applied to Shogun.
>>
>>23322621
he was just being tsundere

What else would you call it?
>These simple brown people are so much better than us with their sex toys and their polygamy and their ooga booga heathen nonsense
>>
>>23322983
Noble savage as a trope comes from the romanticization of the uncivilized, like think of Rousseau or the "native americans were le peaceful and economically conscious" meme. The japanese don't fit this trope because they're extremely civilized, they just adhere to many customs that a european like the MC would find either bizarre, disgusting, or genuinely impressive and admirable.
