Anyone know where I can read more about this old Chinatown in CDMX? I can’t seem to find non meme posts about it
Wikipedia lists the earliest known Chinese immigration to Mexico as 1635 (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chinese_immigration_to_Mexico), which is a liiiiitle bit more than 10 years after the fall of the Aztec Empire in 1521 (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Spanish_conquest_of_the_Aztec_Empire)
You can’t because it is not true. Most of the other post aren’t either. Both posts are great examples of what happens when people learn all their history from internet shitposts and youtube videos.
Sakoku in Japan started in the 1630s where basically no one was allowed to leave (and anyone coming back, even if Japanese blown of course in a boat or something, could be put to death).
After some poking around, it seems like some Japanese were in New Spain in 1613-1614, but I can’t find anything about mercenaries/guards (especially not large numbers of them). Is there a source?
You make some interesting points, but I choose to believe a random screen shot.
That would be one hell of a D&D campaign.
My favorite part of the original Dracula is that there is a literal rootin-tootin’ yee-haw cowboy in it.
The original Dracula is so good and the characters are so damn funny. You have the hero polycule consisting of a cowboy, a love stuck himbo, an autistic woman who’s special interest is trains, a romantic goth, a rich guy with a pack of corgis, an obsessive gadget guy and their adoptive eccentric uncle fighting against a man with a traditional harem he can’t keep happy and who spends half his time pretending to be his own servant to keep up appearances.
This 100% sounds like the next big Manga that gets turned into a 4-season anime
“I Was Transported to Victorian England to Defeat the Lord of Vampires, but My Party Is a Cowboy Gunslinger, a Lovestruck Himbo Solicitor, a Train-Obsessed Autistic Scholar, a Romantic Goth Girl, a Corgi-Hoarding Aristocrat, and a Gadget-Crazed Professor Led by Our Eccentric Adoptive Uncle. Meanwhile, the Demon Lord Keeps Cosplaying as His Own Butler Because He Can’t Manage Even a Single Harem?!", now available on Netflix.
Why does everything have to be a manga or an anime?
It’s the Carcinisation of art.
