Imagine if White people kept demanding there be White samurai in Japanese historical films just because there were a few White samurai who existed, And in the case of the so called "black samurai Yasuke", he probably didn't even exist and was made up by the jesuits https://kotakuinaction2.win/p/17sP1tdvfF/the-fake-myth-of-the-black-samur/
How many bad Ninja and Samurai movies have been made with that exact premise? Blood sport, 3 Ninjas, American Ninja, Shogun, Last Samurai are the ones I can remember.
Bloodsport isn't a Samurai movie. American Ninja is about ninjas not samurai. And Cruise isn't a Samurai in The Last Samurai. Keanu Reeves isn't a Samurai in 47 Ronin.
I didn't watch the original Shogun or read the books so I can't comment on white samurai in that.
