The jokes land fastest when you recognize the historical figure getting skewered. It's a comedy built on the assumption you know your samurai history well enough to laugh at what's being twisted. The pacing moves at sketch speed, not sitcom speed, so a bad joke clears out before it can sink you. This is for people who find accuracy funny, not despite it. The eyepatch itself becomes running commentary on how seriously these generals took themselves, which the show absolutely does not.
A short-form comedy that pokes fun at well-known samurai warlords and celebrated moments from Japanese history. Every week brings a fresh batch of gags, which the Japanese side playfully calls "gyags," as historical figures and incidents are bent into jokes. Among the guest stars is the famous Gackt. The episodes are brief and built around quick parody.
