Nagoya Castle

Nagoya Castle

For generations, the Oda family had been surpplanting their superiors.

After his father's death, and Nobunaga succeeded,

there was treason by family members and prominent vassals.

In response, Nobunaga used force to suppress dissent.

Then he had to face his biggest challenge.

His brother Nobuyuki and vassal Shibata Katsuie revolted.

It took nine years for Nobunaga...

to suppress the numerous internal rebellions and unite Owari.

When Nobunaga unified Owari, he became as strong as Harunobu.

Soon Nobunaga would stand in Harunobu's way,

and was fated to eventually lead the destruction of the Takeda.

My son Harunobu proceeded to lnner-Shinano...

with his army and captured Katsureyama Castle.

To protect the Buddha of Zenkoji from the battle fires,

it was transferred to the town of Nezu.

Harunobu desired to end...

the warfare in Shinano as soon as he could.

However, Kagetora found Harunobu's actions intolerable,

and they fought for the third time at Kawanakajima.

Shortly thereafter, the Shogun sent an envoy.

I relay Shogun Ashikaga Yoshiteru's orders.

He prohibits you from entering lnner-Shinano...

with your army again.

Echigo has appealed to the Shogun, it seems.

Very strongly.

I understand what the Shogun wishes.

It is my intention to comply with them.

I will promise not to march into lnner-Shinano...

if the Shogun acknowledges my authority in Shinano.

You want to replace Ogasawara Nagatoki...

as the military commissioner of Shinano?

Exactly.

As you already know, with the exception of lnner-Shinano,

over the past 10 years, Shinano has become an arm of Kai.

If he will acknowledge this fact,

I shall honor the Shogun's wishes.

Then, you want guardianship of both Kai and Shinano?

That is right.

Enter.

Aside from our gift to the Shogun, this is for you.

It is gold.

You are most qualified to be military commissioner of Shinano.

Leave things to me.

She is fortunate to be chosen by the lord.

I am overwhelmed.

She is very beautiful.

Raise your head.

My daughter Eri has many shortcomings,

but, please be good to her.

Go on. Pay your respects to the lord.

Please forgive her.

I do not mind.

My name is Eri.

Ashikaga Takauji of the main branch of our lmagawa family,

was appointed Kazusu-no-suke, Jibu-daiyu, and Mikawa-no-kami,

and then became Shogun.

If I can become the Mikawa-no-kami,

then I will be of the same rank as Takauji.

Then, you can go to Kyoto and take over the country.

Okabe.

Watch your words.

Forgive me.

Mother. I have no intention of being the ruler.

But, Kyoto, where you were born and raised, is in turmoil.

Shogun Yoshiteru is being manipulated by a nothing called Miyoshi.

Who knows what will happen?

Do you want some brash unknown to rule?

Should anything happen to the Shogun and his family,

as the lmagawa, we will take over the rule.

However, before that, Nobunaga of Owari must be eliminated.

Owari

Owari's overlord, Oda Nobunaga, had won in the family power struggle.

But, he had not subjugated Owari as a province.

It has been a year since your father,

Saito Dosan, met his unfortunate death.

Abandon your sadness.

I will be by your side always.

Smile.

I can't.

I can smile even if nothing's funny.

The very act of smiling will bring another.

I will help you throw away your grief...

in the mountains today.

I will grant any wish you may have.

Please avenge my father.

I will promise you that.

I will attack Mino, behead every man responsible for his death,

and line their heads before you.

I will be looking forward to that.

Trust my power.

First, I shall conquer Owari.

Owari, Kiyosu Castle

Your younger brother Nobuyuki is collaborating...

with Lord Oda Nobuyasu of lwakura,

and plans to attack this Kiyosu Castle.

I had just forgiven him last year...

for raising against me. He hasn't learned a thing!

Forgive me. I was involved in that plot...

and was prepared to die,

but you showed mercy and forgave me.

I, Shibata Katsuie, will never forget that.

To repay your kindness, I tried to discourage...

your brother from this act.

But, his decision was firm and unbending.

Which is why I am here to inform you.

Please be cautious.

Thanks for telling me. I am grateful.

Don't consider it as treachery against Nobuyuki.

Betrayal began in his heart.

They say the arrow of treachery often...

ends where it began.

Shibata. Is anyone aware of your coming here?

No.

Then, return and act as you normally do.

I will become gravely ill tonight,

take to my bed, and hover close to death.

Half a month later, I will inform my mother confidentially.

She will probably tell Nobuyuki.

What do you think he will do?

The lmagawa forces may attack us any day now.

This must be taken care of quickly.

What needs attention now are the horizontal connections,

as well as the vertical ones.

It is more important than a new army.

Hara, my topic is more urgent.

Excuse me, but please don't interfere.

This Kaizu Castle is in Kawanakajima.

We don't know when we will be attacked.

Every minute makes a difference!

The same can be said of the Kamanashi River.

Look at the rain! It may turn into a flood.

Kai is nothing without an army.

Kai is nothing without an army...

Where did the lord go?

Lord Harunobu...

It's about the outer moat to the west...

I will hear about it later.

It won't take long.

I am going to the "yama" (mountain).

In this rain?

That's right. There are "kusaki" (trees and grass) there.

Naturally, there are trees and grass in the mountains.

Does Lord Harunobu have something on his mind?

Where has he gone?

He was in the corridor, but acting strange.

Was he angry?

He said he was going in this rain to the mountain,

where the trees and grass are.

Perhaps the stress has made him a bit crazy.

It would be a disaster if this was so.

There are "kusaki" (trees and grass) at the "yama" (mountain).

There are "kusaki" (trees and grass) at the "yama" (mountain).

What's so funny?

There are "kusaki" (smells) there.

"Yama" refers to the bathroom.

Which is why there are "smells."

Now I see what he meant.

I see.

Inner-Shinano...

Inner-Shinano...

I'd like to report.

What is it?

A messenger from Oda Nobunaga of Owari is here.

Oda Nobunaga?

You are a retainer of Oda Nobunaga?

Yes, I am Oda Nobunaga retainer Yanada Masatsuna.

Raise your head.

I would like to thank you very, very much,

from the bottom of my heart, to be allowed this meeting.

What does Oda Nobunaga want?

My lord has been impressed many times by your military tactics,

and desires advice...

Those words are meaningless to me.

Just get to the point.

Pardon me.

Then, I will get to the point.

My lord would like to team up with you.

With me?

Yes, against lmagawa.

Is Lord Oda aware that the Takeda and the lmagawa are relatives?

Besides, Kai, Sagami, and Suruga...

have just recently formed a triple alliance.

He is very aware of that.

I see...

We wish to overthrow the lmagawa...

through this secret alliance.

Oda Nobunaga is an entertaining man.

I understand his motives.

May I have a reply?

Let's see...

Tell him, "Kan-pu-hatsu-mei."

"Kan-pu-hatsu-mei?"

That's right.

Forgive my ignorance.

I'm not highly educated and have difficulty comprehending this.

Tell me what characters are used.

"Kan-pu" means the "wicked wind,"

"hatsu" means "to send," and "mei" means "confusion."

"Kan-pu-hatsu-mei," is it?

What does it mean?

I think Oda Nobunaga will understand.

Very well.

I have an errand for you.

Go to Owari and learn about this Oda Nobunaga.

A couple of hours ago, Yanada Masatsuna,

one of his retainers came to see me.

He was clad as a priest and dark complexioned.

He is probably heading west. Follow him.

I will rebuild Kaizu Castle according to your plans.

Don't worry about it.

Then, I will depart immediately.

I am counting on you.

Suruga...

Totomi...

Mikawa...

Owari...

...Oda Nobunaga.

Pardon me.

Your younger brother Nobuyuki has arrived.

I rushed over after hearing of it from my mother.

I wasn't aware of his critical condition.

What do the doctors say?

He has very little time left.

Little time?

Of all things to happen...

Older Brother!

Nobuyuki, you are my real brother,

yet you've tried to kill me twice!

The first time, I forgave, as Mother begged me to.

However, the second time, I won't,

even if Mother was to beg me again.

Farewell!

You trapped me!

Prepare yourself!

I told you that there would be no second chance.

Did you think you could defeat me?

No one can defeat me!

You fool!

Brother...

Fool!

Why do you sadden our elderly mother?

Two years later, Nobunaga would plot like Nobuyuki...

against Oda Nobuyasu and capture lwakura Castle.

But, this present incident let him...

carry out the unification of Owari.

Eri...

Once you turn over a shell,

memorize the shape and its picture.

Do you understand?

Yes.

Eri is from the mountains.

She has probably never seen shells before.

My lady, Kai is located in the mountains,

but we have all seen shells before.

Right, Eri?

Yes, I have seen them.

They must have been on a tumulus.

No, they were from the sea.

If you lie, the devil will take your tongue.

But... It's not a lie.

Very obstinate.

My lady, it doesn't happen in the summer,

but during the winter live clams are brought...

from the waters of Sagami and Suruga.

Satomi, how many years have I lived in Kai?

Pardon me?

Eri, do not talk back to her ladyship.

Let's play games that will not offend her.

Satomi... It's your turn.

Yes.

How dare you! What are you doing?!

Please forgive me.

This is funny...

What a beautiful view!

Yes, truly.

It is hard to leave such a view.

May I sit next to you?

Be my guest.

How nice to gaze upon this view while eating.

Yes.

Priest...

Priest... Yes.

Yes.

Can you spare me some water?

I don't have much, but you are welcome to it.

Thanks. I dropped mine somewhere.

Thanks, again.

It's delicious.

On the mountaintop, water is a treasure.

In a deep valley, sunlight is a treasure.

The less we have of, the more grateful we become.

Where are you going?

To Suruga, then west.

I travel around the country.

What sect do you belong to?

Which one do you think?

What about yourself?

What is your guess?

I don't think it's any of them.

A priest must follow the ten commandments.

One says that a priest shall not eat at noon.

You have defied that rule already.

Though clad as a priest, you are not.

You have also broken the rule.

What is your name?

Sanmi. It's san for mountains,

and mi from the sutras.

I'm Ryozen.

"Ryo" is for "beam," "Zen" for "meditation."

I am almost forty...

I do not want to end my life in some battle...

deep in the mountains.

Youth outshines everything.

Owari - Tsushima

Isn't Owari warm compared to the East?

Yes, I agree.

I was born here in Tsushima.

Allow me to extend my hospitality tonight.

We have arrived.

Go in, Sanmi. Do not hesitate.

I have just returned.

Good work. Is this the man?

Who is he?

I am Oda Nobunaga.

Tell me your real name.

If you do, I won't kill you.

If you don't, I'll kill you on the spot.

I am Yamamoto Kansuke.

How did things go in Kofu?

Can I report it here?

It doesn't matter if he's an agent,

for Takeda or lmagawa.

It is a known fact that I sent a messenger to Takeda.

What was Lord Takeda's response?

Has he refused?

No, not exactly. He laughed and said...

Tell me. Don't worry.

Lord Takeda's reply was just "kan-pu-hatsu-mei."

He said you would comprehend the meaning.

"Kan-pu-hastu-mei?"

"Kan-pu" means...

..."wicked wind" and "hastu" is "to send,"

and "mei" is for "confusion."

"Kan-pu-hastu-mei."

Is he laughing at you for being confused...

enough to send such winds of mischief?

No, this is not it.

He has expressed his honest emotions, "Kan-pu-hastu-mei."

Winds of mischief stir in his heart,

and he is confused.

He is considering the betrayal of the lmagawa,

and is undecided at this time.

Because of that, he sent this man...

to find out what kind of fool I was.

Am I right?

Let me present you with the female dance...

performed by the biggest fool of Owari.

Watch it well.

"Kan-pu-hastu-mei"...

"Kan-pu-hastu-mei."

What blossomed in my son Harunobu's heart...

could be likened to the yearnings...

of a country bumpkin for the faraway capital.

Or, was it a fear of losing his youth?

Perhaps, it was that fierce male desire...

to possess everything that prompted him.

This man was also seeking the capital.

And, so was this man...

and, this man!

We shall end here for tonight.

To be continued.

To be continued.
