Samurai were respected by various groups in Japanese society, particularly during the feudal era. They were revered for their adherence to bushido, the way of the warrior, which emphasized honor, loyalty, and martial skill. Nobles and feudal lords relied on samurai for protection and military service, and common people often viewed them as symbols of discipline and honor. Additionally, the samurai's role in shaping Japanese culture, including arts and philosophy, further cemented their respected status.

Samurai were the elite and most respected fighters, so much so that one could be immediatley executed for not showing them the proper respect. Thus when the Sengokujidai ended and Japan experienced 2 centuries of peace the samurai had little to do.
In the pre-Edo period, the samurai held high social standing as members of the military class. They were respected for their fighting skills, leadership qualities, and loyalty to their lords. Samurai played a crucial role in shaping the social hierarchy and political landscape of Japan during that time.
The Chinese samurai were known as the "wuxia" warriors. They were skilled fighters who followed a code of honor similar to the Japanese samurai. The wuxia warriors played a significant role in Chinese history, often serving as protectors of the people and defenders of justice. They were highly respected for their martial arts prowess and dedication to their principles.
The samurai of ancient Japan could wear two swords, were the highest level of hierarchy, and could behead anyone they wanted to, just because they wanted to. Of course, if a samurai happened to kill someone of high status, or especially their ruler, they would face challenges including being demoted in their status. Many samurai would commit seppuku if that were to happen, which is a ritual , honorable suicide for the ancient samurai. They would cut their abdomen open and be beheaded by an assistant. Also, the samurai were very respected. Peasants looked up to them greatly.
