Academic sources on Yasuke's samurai status include:
- Lockley, Thomas (16 July 2024). "Yasuke". Encyclopedia Britannica. Archived from the original on 16 July 2024. Retrieved 17 July 2024. Due to his favor with Nobunaga and presence at his side in at least one battle, Yasuke is commonly held by Japanese historians to be the first recorded "samurai" of foreign birth, although this has been disputed by some people [...] In an unpublished but extant document from about this time, Ōta states that Nobunaga made Yasuke a vassal, giving him a house, servants, a sword, and a stipend. During this period, the definition of samurai was ambiguous, but historians think that this would contemporaneously have been seen as the bestowing of warrior or "samurai" rank.
