Great chapter again.
Honestly I'm partially hoping that someone makes a claim that the enemy hates a specific food, filling, topping, flavor, etc, just to pump the soldiers up.

Also, Shizuko is gonna have some folks believing that she's a prophet if this keeps up (assuming they don't already ofc).

I'm wondering how this will end.
I'm thinking:
  1. She returns to a distorted version of her time, when Japan is centuries ahead of the rest of the world.
  2. She lives to see the unification of Japan under Ieyasu, then goes back like nothing happens.
  3. She creates tanks and mechs and successfully invades Korea to battle a time shifted Admiral Yi who has modern battleships.
I'm personally hoping for the third one.

Um... why would you tell something so dangerous to someone with impulse control??
I mean, if she tells him that he can only tell Nobunaga about this, that greatly controls the fallout.

Otherwise, it just might be something that isn't clear in value until you start shooting it.

Didn't they already have muskets-type weapons? I guess it's a rifled bore/breech-loaded or something? Though do they have the technology yet for that?
Japan might not have had it yet. Remember they were a good 50-100 years behind the west in the firearms race. This lasted pretty much until the start of WW2.

The monk is wise not to test the heathen witch with her infernal machinations ready to bear down upon their faith.

Like how the author headed off any nerds screeching about the sizes of horses in that era “yes we know they weren’t that big it just looks cool.”
On that note Shizuko is either bordering on modern legal loli size or she'd be tall enough to be mistaken for a sengoku man given the poor nutrition and growth Japan faced up till the last century.

"people of color" in the translation feels out of place, as that's a very modern Americanized construction. The raw text is yūshoku jinshu (有色人種), which is commonly translated as "colored race" (you can google that and see examples of that translation). That fits the speaker and historical setting better.
