Warring States Japan: Sengoku Jidai - The Death of Oda Nobunaga - Extra History - Part 4

Wait, They used the open gate strategy? I thought it was a chinese strat..

Ieyasu tokugawa doing zhuge liang's empty fort strategy is something new that i learn from this videos.. thank you for the video!

Hanzo Hattori wasn't actually a ninja though he was the leader of the Iga ninjas. Hanzo himself was actually a samurai and was more well known for being a great spear fighter.

Shingen Takeda (as written Japanese style) actually once gave an enemy supplies, and when asked why, said to his truculent adviser "Wars are to be won with swords and spears, not rice and salt!"

Historical Honor is consistently overstated. Be it the slaving Spartans, the massacring crusaders, or these backstabbing Samurai lords.

We are still waiting for Takeda Shingen EH series...

Holding breath the whole video

NOOOO why did he had to die

This also happened in wano

Wait it goes from 1571 to 1557??

Netflix made a documentary on this and they got pretty much nothing right

Loyalty has nothing to do with honour. Just look at the mafia

Nobunaga narrowly survived an assassination attempt when the Iga Ninjas tried to poison him. Considering how he died in the end, I think poison was much better.

Haha, we have Calvary! What could possibly go wrong? Castle: I SHALL USE, THE HANZŌ…

Akechi Mitsuhide used to fight for the Saito and then the Asakura, perhaps part of his betrayal was vengeance for their destruction?

When you mention disloyalty of Samuri. although it may be true during the sengoku, the samuri were loyal in other periods of Japanese historu

I really hope they visit the Kenshin Uesugi - Shingen Takeda rivalry. It's one of the greatest rivalrys of all time.

I think that Takeda Shingen died from illness and not from a bullet wound

Akechi... Hmmmm I wonder where I've seen this one before.

The Oda-Tokugawa allied archers, infantrymen and riflemen won the Battle of Nagashino against the Takeda horsemen in 1575 but Nobunaga died of assassination by Akechi Mitsuhide at the Honnoji incident 7 years later.

Hattori Hanzo. The famous Ninja warrior who actually wasn't a Ninja, which may just be the most Ninja thing ever.

Anyone else read this as "Sengoku Jedi" when looking at the thumbnail with the ninja?

The traitor is not just any retainer
Its Tokugawa 's Wife lady tsugiyama

reason is absolute authority only come from other humans and abortion isnt murder. therefore you must expand for money.

One thing about Hatori Hanzo is that he was actually a samurai, it's just that he and his troops were like the equivalent of special forces for the day.

Think Hanzo was one of the coolest people in history that we don't know much about because he was too good at his job

Life is temporary, sepuku is eternal

Except for the Buddhist massacres, Oda was no worse than the warlords he cut down. The people had no love for their constant conflict and preferred to have the country united by force. Unfortunately he was too big of a weirdo to be allowed to rule it. He proposed capitalism and industrialization, and other progressive policies that would've raised the standard of living and made Imperial Nippon globally competitive. That made him a bane to traditional isolationists, who would've thrown support behind Tokugawa even if Oda hadn't been betrayed at Honnoji.

It's a shame that Hitori Hanzo ended up running a teahouse on Okinawa

Actually that's just a theory saying Takeda Shingen got sniped by someone that wasn't really proven historians actually think he died of a liver cancer but they don't even know if that's true either no one knows how he really died

7 years later this is still one of the best series

Please do the series on shingen

Shinobi rule no2:



The master is absolute. Hattori Hanzo is a true shinobi.

The horse illustrations are too cute .

Vary interesting

ieyasu the japanese belisarius

Our tendancy to read history backwards from an assumption beforehand is the reason we have that sense of Samurai to be more honourable vs Ninjas.

Suneemon: Jumps off the wall
Desmond: I raised that boy.

"The Mountain has moved!"

DAMN YOU AKECHI!

Suneemon is probably mythicized to be the future loyal japanese soldier in the 20th century

Oh, did you mean the Shogun of 13 days?

Wait what?

To be fair, the whole romanticized myth of samurai honor comes primarily from the Edo period, when Japan was at peace. In reality, the samurai during the Sengoku period were ruthless warmongers, with the intent of annihilating their enemies in the most brutal and unforgiving way possible. The Sengoku period is really not a time for the samurai to be trusting one another, it's about saving your own hair and your own lord who you serve.

I Think you messed the name of the Ninja up it was probably meant to ‘Jin Sakai, The ghost of Tsushima’

Takeda Samurais: titans irl
Tokugawa ninjas: survey corps
