Tokugawa Ieyasu is rightfully seen as a national hero, even though he betrayed his former leader's heir and took the Shogunate for himself. For example, Uesugi Kenshin is often portrayed as a noble warrior even though he very likely forced his brother to commit ritual suicide. I'm only asking because from a gaijin perspective Nobunaga doesn't look that much worse than some of his contemporaries. Is it a case of revisionist history where the Tokugawa shogunate wanted to make him look as evil as possible to put themselves in a better light? Is it because he was so ruthless to the Ikko Ikki and certain Buddhist monasteries? Is there a particular battle or bloody act that forever sullied his reputation? What I'd like to hear from some of the Sengoku experts on this site is whether Nobunaga deserves that reputation. I know from Japanese pop culture (movies and video games) that Nobunaga is often portrayed as the most brutal and evil leader of the Sengoku period. His death in battle continues to inspire Ranmaru as the "ideal warrior's death" during the main story.My current Oda campaign has gotten me interested in Oda Nobunaga's backstory. ![]() In order to protect Nobunaga, however, he was killed in action. Whenever he returned home to his son, he would tell him war stories and his admiration for their young lord. He was a talented user of the cross-spear and Ranmaru's idol. Geten no Hana doesn't refer to him by name yet he is mentioned in passing during Ranmaru's story route. Ranmaru -and to a lesser extent, Nagayoshi- inherit his proficiencies and skills when they appear in Nobunaga's army. In his grief, he snaps his war fan in two. The Oda generals mourn his death, Nobunaga particularly regretful for abandoning Yoshinari to his fate. Ranmaru hurries back from the disaster to report the news to Nobunaga. Yoshinari is mortally shot down and Tatsuoki gloats over his kill. ![]() Issuing a duel with Nagamasa, he appears to have the upper hand until he falls victim to an ambush staged by Tatsuoki Saitō. As always, Nobunaga brushes off Yoshinari's concerns and tells the elder to do as he pleases.ĭeciding to act on his lord's orders, Yoshinari departs and tries to defend Mt. When Nobunaga decides to confront the Miyoshi Trio at Nota-Fukushima, Yoshinari protests as it will leave the Oda's base of operations open to attack against the Azai forces. He is a mandatory unit for the Battle of Inuyama against the opposing Oda family in Owari, excelling as a leader for sword fighters or archers. Nobunaga often responds to his criticisms with jest, not taking them very seriously. He is a seasoned warrior with years of experience, acting as an admonishing figure to his master's reckless exploits. Yoshinari starts out as one of the initial officers for Nobunaga in Kessen III. In Warriors Orochi, Yoshinari serves as Ranmaru's replacement officer when players assume his son's role. Losing his life to defend the mountain, Ranmaru swears to avenge his father in the following conflicts against Nagamasa. During Nagamasa's story in the sequel, players fight him and his forces at Mt. In the Samurai Warriors series, Yoshinari is one of the Oda's early retainers before Nagashino and Honnōji. ![]()
