To be fair, yasuke never was a samurai. He was a bodyguard of a jesuit monk (I think?) and was sold to obu nobunaga because he thought he looked “funny”. He was a trusted retainer under nobunaga, but never owned land or was a samurai.
To be fair to be fair, those people never complained about the historical accuracy with Pope sword fights, or Leonardo Divinci having technology that wouldn’t be produced until the 1800s, and I’m sure many more historical inaccuracies involving white folks.
Is kinda suss though that Ubisoft couldn’t do more black characters when in the Americas though, but can totally do it when it’s in Asia. 🙆🏾♂️
I don’t know about other people in his exact position. I do know, however, that in historical records, he was referred to as “suke” which means retainer, not “bushi”.

Other people in his exact position were called samurai back then, at least that’s what I’ve read around
