Well this is hardly the first anime to do that so I don't think it'll be a problem for me.

While it can work, and does work in certain anime, the way they were just thrust together in Yasuke felt off and weird. Perhaps it might have worked better if they didn't try focusing on a historical figure.

But like some users have already pointed out, why are there still arrows and swords when the technology exists to have gun and lasers? While you could answer that it's rare, it begs the question on how the technology even exists when there doesn't seem to be anything in the middle of that past time period and the far off future period. Like, is he a time traveling cyborg? We will never know.

I actually found the magic to be more distracting, especially in the second half of the show.

Samurai 7 had robots & samurai. (No magic or animal people) but it was still good.

My exact thoughts. It’s not like it can’t work and hasn’t been done before. It just doesn’t work here, for me at least.

Realistically, it doesn't make sense but I think it's a rather unique combination of genres. I really like it.
