Emperor, Shogun, Daimyo, Samurai*, Peasants, Artisan, and Merchants. *There are also Ronin, which are Samurai without a Daimyo (because he/she was killed, committed seppuku, etc.).
The Samurai in the Peasants view:Where said to have been money, hungry, corrupt gangsters and killers who oppressed the peasants. They only used religion and spirituality to give themselves "purpose" during peace time. It is clear that the Samurai oppressed the peasant and merchant class; this was the case of where the lowest common class is oppressed by the more socially astute class.Basically they saw the Samurai, NOT in a good way, becuase they were the lowest of the Japanese Feudal system!!!!!
Emperor at the top, followed by the Shogun, Daimyo, Samurai and finally peasants (farmers, merchants, crafts people). That was what it was supposed to be like. Instead, the Shogun was at the top, then the emperor, daimyo, samurai, and peasants. The shogun seized control after the emperor was so caught up with his own life at court. They were also known as a heirarchy.

Answer 1: SAmurais served their Shogun. A shogun was the military leader and as the years went on shogans became more incharge then the emperors. Answer 2: Samurai didn't serve the shogun, they served the daimyo, the Japanese lords. Then the daimyo would give the shogun loyalty and the service of some of the daimyo's samurai, in return for land which they gave some to the samurai. The shogun has (for example) 3 lots of land - A, B, C. Two lots of samurai -A,B - serve the daimyo. The shogun gives land lot B and C to the daimyo in return for samurai lot B. The daimyo gives land lot C to the samurai in return for their service. So even though samurai lot B 'serves' the shogun, they actually do that only because they serve the daimyo.
The samurai were seen as superior to peasants and other regular people, but inferior to the Daimyo they served.
The manor system is when knights allowed peasants to farm land on their large estates. In return, the peasants had to give the knights food or other payment.

It went emperor, figurehead, daimyo, samurai (warriors), and then peasants (poor, normal people). Imagine a pyramid.
The daimyo class was the middle class in the Japanese feudal system. The shoguns were above and the peasants were below.
Imagine a pyramid. At the very top is the emperor. Then comes the figurehead. Then the daimyo. The the samurai (warriors), then peasants (poor but regular people).
