Description

Not too much of a teaser for the upcoming Sengoku Fun Facts #12.
We will talk about what is a Koshō (小姓); and why they are better than your average retainer.

Also, Happy Valentine day, folks!

Comic is here!
Sengoku Fun Facts #12:
edgekagami.deviantart.com/art/…

===============================================
For people who don't know the context:
Panel 1) Oda Nobunaga (daimyo) and Ranmaru
Panel 2) Toyotomi Hideyoshi (daimyo) and Ishida Mitsunari
Panel 3) Uesugi Kagekatsu (daimyo) and Naoe Kanetsugu
Panel 4 & 5) Date Masamune (daimyo) and Katakura Kagetsuna/Kojūrō

===============================================
Notes:
Panel 2: Ishida Mitsunari was known to be really good at tax calculation and logistics. If he was alive today, I have no doubt he will be working for the tax department. He did intensive design for Hideyoshi's tax collection system.
Panel 3: See Otate no Ran war. Kagekatsu and Kagetora were fighting over succession of the Uesugi clan.
Panel 4: Don't worry, Kojūrō didn't get shot in real life. But Masamune's first helmet showed a lot of bullet impacts, which shows they dealt with guns very often.
Panel 5: If a person is shot, we will like to highlight that the first aid should be to apply pressure to the wound. Not to hug the person.

The Kosho most likely contributed to the image that a samurai is loyal to his lord until death.
