The Life of Saito Tatsuoki, Who Was Chased Out of Mino by Nobunaga - the Grandson of Dosan, Who Relentlessly Fought Back Against the Oda Clan

Saito Dosan was known as the "Mamushi" (Vampire). His son, Saito Yoshitatsu, fought with Dosan and had a tragic break with him. Both men lived the lives of typical Sengoku daimyo. But what about Saito Tatsuoki, Dosan's grandson and Yoshitatsu's son? In fact, Tatsuoki is not as well known as his grandfather and father, and is sometimes criticized as a foolish general, but he lived a life "typical" of a Sengoku daimyo. Let's take a look at the lif…Mino · Mino Read Article

The Life of Fuwa Mitsuharu, a Sengoku Warlord Who Was on a Par with the Mino Sanninshu - Dominating the Hokuriku Region Under Katsuie

His name often comes up in manga and books depicting the Sengoku period. However, lacking easy-to-understand anecdotes and spectacular exploits, he doesn't leave a strong impression. There are countless Sengoku warlords like him, but this time, we'd like to focus on one who seems to be particularly underrated... That's Fuwa Mitsuharu. When looking back at the history of Shibata Katsuie, Maeda Toshiie, or Sasaki Narimasa, he is a figure who alway…Mino · Mino Read Article

Enku and Ittobori: How Were the Wooden Buddha Statues that Enku Prayed to Carve "I Will Carve 120,000 of Them" Made?

: "Cool Japan" is a term we don't hear much these days, so doesn't it seem strange? If we value Japanese culture, it would make more sense if the slogan was in Japanese to begin with. If it was written in roman letters with an English caption, it would be easier for people overseas to understand. This time, we'll be looking at an object made using techniques unique to Japan that can be recommended to people overseas as "purely Japanese". July 15…Mino · Mino Read Article

The Life of Maeda Gen'i, a Sengoku Warlord of the Toyotomi Clan - One of the Five Magistrates and Active Behind the Scenes when Hideyoshi Became Regent

July 9th, 1602 (May 20th, 7th year of the Keicho era) is the death anniversary of Maeda Gen'i. He was a Sengoku warlord from Mino, but you may not have much of an image of him. Although he was one of the "Five Toyotomi Magistrates," known along with Ishida Mitsunari, even when he appears in manga and dramas, he gives the impression of being a very modest character, sitting on the outskirts of the many warlords and daimyo that line the streets. I…Mino · Mino Read Article

The Truth Behind the Legend that Made Hideyoshi Famous: "Sunomata Ichiya Castle" - Why Did Such an Absurd Story Spread?

Is it because he rose from the status of a peasant to become the ruler of Japan, and was loved by the common people for his affable character? Or is it because after he became the ruler of Japan, he fabricated a large number of legends himself? Even today, there are many fans of Toyotomi Hideyoshi with flashy anecdotes. Among these, the most famous episode is that of Sunomata Ichiya Castle, which is said to have been the springboard for Hideyosh…Mino · Mino Read Article

The Life of Mino's Sengoku Warlord, Hanbei Takenaka - A Military Strategist Who Was Praised on a Par with Kanbei, and His Achievements

Speaking of genius military strategists in the Sengoku period? Yamamoto Kansuke, the right-hand man of Takeda Shingen... I think he has a more earthy, wild image than a genius. Taira Sessai is also more of a cunning strategist, unique to a monk, than a genius, and Kuroda Kanbei is probably closer to being a "genius" than these two. However, in the historical drama "Gunshi Kanbei," there was a military commander who was closer to being "gifted wi…Mino · Mino Read Article

Her Husband, Saito Dosan, and Her Son, Yoshitatsu, Killed Each Other - Was Miyoshino a Beautiful Woman Who Brought Disaster to Mino?

Mino is in the spotlight as the place where Akechi Mitsuhide grew up in the historical drama "Kirin ga Kuru." There was a woman of unparalleled beauty in this area who gave birth to a boy on June 10, 1527 (the 7th year of the Taiei era), who later started a brutal war of patricide. The name of the beautiful mother was Miyoshino. Her husband, Saito Dosan, and her son, Saito Yoshitatsu, were engaged in a fierce power struggle that escalated into a…Mino · Mino Read Article

The Life of Ando Moriyasu, One of the Mino Triumvirate - the Tragic End of Hanbei's Father-in-Law While Following Nobunaga

Oda Nobunaga's vassals were of all sorts of origins. Some had been in the service of the Oda clan for generations, some had switched sides from the Muromachi shogunate, and some had lost in battle. Some had even given up on their former lords and joined Nobunaga, and the people who followed the Oda clan when they invaded Mino from Owari were known as the "Western Mino Three." [Western Mino Three] Inaba Yoshimichi (Inaba Ittetsu) Ujiie Naomoto (…Mino · Mino Read Article

Yasuda Kunitsugu Was the First to Strike Nobunaga with a Spear at Honnoji Temple, but He Didn't Receive Any Reward. What Happened to Him After That?

Even if you don't know the name Yasuda Kunitsugu, many people will be surprised when they learn of his achievements. He played a major role in the Honnoji Incident on June 2, 1582 (Tensho 10). And because he died on the same day, June 2, 1597 (Keicho 2), some people speculate that he was cursed by Nobunaga. What on earth did Yasuda Kunitsugu do? When Akechi Mitsuhide surrounded the temple, Nobunaga fought back for a while with his aides, includi…Mino · Mino Read Article
