Technically we are talking about Spartans not hoplites. The Spartans had bows, javelins, and slings too. But ranged weapons aren’t great against steel armour. And their bronze armour would have caved like butter if hit by basically any of the steel weapons and ammunition the samurai used.
If they also have their yumi (longbow) & any amount of distance, that hoplite or spartan is a dead man.
Samurai also had straight up guns. For centuries. They bought them off of Portuguese traders and developed a local industry
So, don’t bring a bronze sword to an armored, steel sword/ longbow/ gun fight?
