@ericcadman1329 That was far earlier, before their 200 years of relative isolation in early 1600s. Though I'm not sure of all the itineraries so it's possible another may have stopped by later. Those sorts of ties with Catholicism were the sort of thing that caused the shogunate to close the country in the first place. Christians rebelled against an anti-Christian crackdown, and that was put down. Most foreigners were expelled except for the Dutch who had sided with the shogunate and were less religiously meddlesome, and were allowed to maintain limited trade. These missions of Fukuzawa were sent after things were reopened in the mid-1800s, which is why we see a different set of players- the missions in this period focus more on GB, France, USA, Germany, and Russia and such.

Well, you can film but you aren't supposed to upload unless you had their permission to film in the first place. But even Japanese youtubers do it. It's potentially illegal so all the bigger companies that risk lawsuits mosaic... everything. Even my friends who aren't likely to actually get sued or anything often mosaic kids. Most people don't seem to mind, but it's good manners to be careful when filming faces. Obviously you asked so it's okay, but people filming should know it CAAAN be a sore issue, so best ask permission.
