"People think, ‘Ah, I can’t be a samurai. They're so cool, and I'm just a normal person.' But that is not the case," Tetsuro told Fox News."I have noticed that the speed of society is moving way too fast and people have much less patience than they used to."The samurai warrior is one of the most iconic cultural symbols of Japan, both past and present. The swordsmen were a class of nobleman devoted to serving regional lords as soldiers, diplomats, and guards.
