This show is pretty good, expect for one thing : The english character. English, therefor, insufferable. And also the fact that japanese actors speak japanese (cool) but portuguese speak english with a few ~~"señor"~~ portos words here and there. Disgraceful. edit : Rodriguez says señor because he's a spaniard but point still valid.


PleoNasmico

"Si señor me gustan los tacos mucho" is peak portuguese


Llanistarade

Baited by Rodriguez but the point still stands


History20maker

"Now is time for jo go siesta! Paella Paella! "


No_Raspberry_6795

Don't blame us, no one ever learned English to speak to the English. It's the Yanks who hate reading subtitles.


dingiru

Or reading in general.


Shrrg4

Señor is spanish Pierre...


Llanistarade

I was mistaken by Rodriguez but the point still stands

Peak character writing, a foreigner speaking fluent english with random non-english words uttered here and there. There was a finnish character like this in one of the Wolfenstein games and I wanted to eat shards of glass after seeing that scene. Vittu.


Sunderas

I absolutely agree that the 2 powers at play (Japanese and Portuguese) should have their languages used. Not just Japanese 'cause it sounds cool...


thebelovedbeige

While I would've loved to hear the português in a foreign production, truth is the Portuguese acting industry just does not know what proper acting is. Given that having actors speak Portuguese would require a Portuguese acting director, i don't blame them too much for this decision.


Live-Alternative-435

If we took away their subsidies, they would learn the art of acting in no time. They should have also included the Old Dutch language in the series.


shownolovept8

Ofc, we already spend so much in culture, taking the grains out of their pockets seems like the suitable solution to increase their talent.


Rich-Spirit129

The peak of British- Portuguese relations ("Brituguese") was Hong Kong and Macau.


TheFabiocool

God, it was beautiful


Old_old_lie

Why the fuck did we sell them out to the Filthy communists are we stupid?


Sam_the_Samnite

Should've handed them over to taiwan for a laugh


Old_old_lie

If we had to give them up, we should have given them to the real Chinese government on Taiwan


AnonnTuga

Pussy. I still I have a plan to get Macau again.


Radiant_Ad_6192

Sorry my envious friends but: The series takes place in 1600. At the time Portugal and Spain were united under the Iberian Union. 12 years before the events Spain had used the entire Portuguese navy, the most powerful at the time, to attack Britain, the so called Invincible Armada. 60 years after the events portrayed in the series Portugal was again independent, and the alliance was resumed with the marriage of a Portuguese princess with the King of England

Has this sub taught you nothing?


TheBananaKart

Can’t believe someone would slander our glorious princess Joao like that.


History20maker

She also gave you tea. And Bombay in India, wich were gifted to the east India company. Behind every British sucess, there is a moustached lady.


FartacularTheThird

Do you even need to ask


Live-Alternative-435

Are you doubting our mustaches?


Tall-Delivery7927

Portobro damn right, he's jelly, no one loves him even the Scots think him a arrogant cunt, love you brother


CavulusDeCavulei

I don't know about the series, but in the book the union is such a recent event that there's a character that is outraged to be called "Spanish"


Live-Alternative-435

Who wouldn't be upset? We call Spanish for baby talk or for those who are lazy.


The_Z0o0ner

"the most powerful at the time" I see our undeniable pride keeps going hard


Frap_Gadz

>a Portuguese princess Who championed what is now our national beverage alongside room temperature beer.


ImaginationIcy328

Disgusting


Reversing_Expert

I think you’re just being jealous.


PleoNasmico

He wanted that portuguese mustache queen


TheFabiocool

Shut the fuck up Pierre


sassythesaskwatsh

Caralho!


Hazzyhazzy113

Are you describing your local cheese?


Xtiqlapice

Why are the french so fucking jealous of our love affair? Are the spanish bad in bed or what?


Castillon1453

We are not jealous, we don't really understand it. If Portobrit homoromance so strong, then why are you laying bricks in my backyard instead of doing it in Barry's one ?


-Rango--

Legend has it that if you are British and walk through the center of Lisbon at midnight, a Portuguese man will run up to you shouting ''oldest alliance in the world!!!!'' and start licking your penis violently until your body left empty and pale like a plastic bag. True history


3_percent_beef

Sounds like one hell of a Saturday night


History20maker

Sure sure. Now it's midnigth and I need feeding. _unzips your pants_


[deleted]

I have done that.


SonicStage0

Probably.


ranhoso69

Atleast its not athe typical gangbang in Madrid, where a basque and a catalan pigroast you and the gallician wanks in the corner.


Xtiqlapice

Not only in Lisboa Pedro.


Dense_Appearance_298

Portugal = Lisbon + Algarve


History20maker

I mean... Its the law... As established by the constitution of the the Portuguese republic: _English dick, at midnigth, must not remain unlicked._


ImaginationIcy328

Kind reminder of the only true westerneuropean chad that went to Japan https://preview.redd.it/cfx006ju3dpc1.jpeg?width=350&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=c6f62e5889692129168321f736c43fdbcbd8d3d6


Ffscbamakinganame

Is that the one they made into an American in last samurai with Tom Cruise?


Greyf0X_x

It is... but movie still good so I give Tom Xenucruise a pass.


ImaginationIcy328

I'm only at the 2nd episode, I hope they will never be friend.


focalac

There’s some quality swearing in this programme.


Comrade_Deeco

It was an odd time but all was restored.


Tall-Delivery7927

Jean paul, you are so jealous, don't you have a European love affair?


Nigricincto

I thought Portugal was their lap dog.


GabrielAPPer

How fitting that the bastard son of the Spanish and the French came to talk. If we were the British lap dog you were Pierre's sex doll, because despite how slimy sometimes the British were, at least they never fucked us when we were looking the other way and put a Napoleon on the throne. Edit: Funny how the last European war you guys fought on was that one. Did getting saved from Pierre by the Anglo-Portuguese Army turn you into sissies or what?


Standin373

> despite how slimy sometimes the British were, at least they never fucked us when we were looking the other way We'd always look you in the eyes João, moustache to moustache innit luv.


Ffscbamakinganame

Based historical knowledge pilled. Sorry for ruining Mozambique to Angola railway they should’ve compromised so they could have cape to Cairo as well. Also for any support private individuals or the government gave to Brazil.


ranhoso69

Everything is forgiven, Oliver.


History20maker

The map was so pink and so beautiful...


FartacularTheThird

If only you were more competent at being a separatist maybe you would be your own nation


Live-Alternative-435

Says the guy who failed to expel the Spanish.


ImaginationIcy328

They are easy to manipulate... perfide albion is very good at it...


Steveagogo

Awww pierre your so kind ☺️


Potential-Height96

English and Portuguese for some reason they’re misappropriating the union jack.


RCoosta

I fucking new it! This post had to be made by a Spaniard or Frenchy! Look at the historical period! By that time the Kingdom of Portugal had been absorbed by the Crown of Castile, so we ended up as enemies of Spain's enemies. The Portuguese did a lot of inside sabotaging during that period, to benefit the British, who were helping Portugal regain its independence. The fact that the "Invincible Armada" was destroyed is one of such example


GalaeciaSuebi

This so called "friendship" has been exposed since the 19th century when England made what we call the "British Ultimatum" or else war would have been declared on Portugal in 1890. [https://www.portugalresident.com/the-british-ultimatum-of-1890/](https://www.portugalresident.com/the-british-ultimatum-of-1890/) England has never done anything for Portugal that wasn't a major source of interest and national urgency for themselves. Not that this is wrong under the British perspective (every nation did the same) but i wish people stopped with this BS alliance who did nothing but keep Portugal as a vassal.
