Yamada: Samurai of Ayothaya

The show is based on a real person Yamada Nagamasa. He was a Japanese samurai who has lost his Lord and has therefore signed on to be a mercenary in Thailand during the Ayothaya era. At first he stays in the Japanese camp with the other Mercenaries. There is a plot to build unrest in the countryside and his group is responsible for stopping it. He learns that it is some Japanese that are behind the unrest. For this knowledge he is almost killed, but saved by some Thai warriors and taken back to their village. There he finds the purpose that he's lacking.

There are some flaws in the movie, some of the dialog is a bit childish. There is a bit of our martial arts is the best martial arts. However that is not the purpose of the movie. The movie is to show how this person of Japanese decent became a citizen of Thailand and ended up making this his home until he died there in 1633.
