This time, I will be explaining the history of the first Emperor Jimmu to the 15th Emperor Ojin based on the "Nihon Shoki," criticizing the parts that are relatively unreliable as historical fact. Please understand that this is merely one point of view. In this and the next video, I will be tracing the history of the emperors up to the 26th Emperor Keitai, who is said to be the first emperor whose existence and lineage are known, so I hope that this will serve as basic knowledge for the period from the 6th century onwards.
