In the [[Sengoku period]], Inabayama Castle was a stronghold for the {{Wiki|Saitō clan}} that ruled over the {{Wiki|Mino province}}. [[Oda Nobunaga]], warring against clan leader and his father-in-law [[Saitō Dōsan]], managed to weak the clan through diplomacy and bribery of the Saitō generals, enough to allow for a siege and subsequent conquest of the castle in 1567, which he renamed Gifu Castle.<ref name="Echoes Shadows 05"/> Having established himself in Gifu, Oda Nobunaga received many guests at the castle, including [[Jesuits|Jesuit]] historian [[Luís Fróis]]<ref name="Echoes Shadows 03">''[[Echoes of History]]'' – Shadows – Episode 3: Portuguese Missionaries in Japan</ref> and then-claimant to the position of [[shōgun]], [[Ashikaga Yoshiaki]], who gave Nobunaga pretext to march on Kyoto in 1568.<ref name="Echoes Shadows 05"/>

{{Era|Individuals}}{{WP-REAL}}
'''Luís Fróis''' (1532 – 1597) was a [[Portugal|Portuguese]] Catholic priest and missionary, being the historian of the [[Jesuits]] during their mission in [[Japan]].
 
During the mission, Fróis sent lengthy reports about the country, detailing what actions the Jesuits had undertaken, the situation in Japan's politics as well as in
the Christian communities therein. Though his writing were considered too extensive by his superiors, he continued sending reports of over 100 pages every year.<ref name="Echoes Shadows 03">''[[Echoes of History]]'' – Shadows – Episode 3: Portuguese Missionaries in Japan</ref>
 
Fróis, like fellow Jesuit [[Gaspar Vilela]], adopted many Japanese customs to better integrate himself in the society he attempted to convert. This effort was not seen kindly by the appointed heads of the Japan sector, [[Francisco Cabral]] and [[Gaspar Coelho]], who were in favor of maintaining their [[Europe]]an habits. Being open to a new culture, Fróis managed to ingratiate himself to [[Oda Nobunaga]], who once invited him to visit [[Gifu Castle]].<ref name="Echoes Shadows 03"/>

[[Battle of Anegawa]]
{{Era|Timeline}}{{WP-REAL}}
The '''Battle of Anegawa''' was the second clash between the forces of [[Oda Nobunaga]] and those under the {{Wiki|Asakura clan|Asakura}} and {{Wiki|Azai clan|Azai}} clans, following the [[Siege of Kanegasaki]] from a few months prior, taking place in July 1570. Having been forced to retreat by [[Azai Nagamasa]]'s forces joining the besieged Asakura forces, Oda Nobunaga joined forces with [[Tokugawa Ieyasu]]. At the shallow {{Wiki|Ane River|Anegawa}}, both sides plunged into the water to engage the enemy. Tokugawa managed to route the Asakura and crash into the Azai's flank while Oda sent his forces around the other flank, defeating their enemies.<ref name="Echoes Shadows 05">''[[Echoes of History]]'' – Shadows – Episode 5: Oda Nobunaga</ref>
 
The surviving members of the Azai and Asakura fled to [[Mount Hiei]], being taken in by the {{Wiki|Tendai}} [[Buddhism|Buddhist]] sect there. The Tendai, having enough military power of their own prevented Nobunaga from completely eliminating the clans following the immediate aftermath of the battle, but would be fulfilled with the 1571 [[Siege of Mount Hiei|massacre]] at the temples.<ref name="Echoes Shadows 05"/>

[[Siege of Kanegasaki]]
{{Era|Timeline}}{{WP-REAL|Siege of Kanegasaki (1570)}}
The '''Siege of Kanegasaki''' was a 1570 battle between the {{Wiki|Asakura clan}}, who sought to protect their domain, and the forces of [[Oda Nobunaga]], who claimed them to be rebels for ignoring a summons from the [[shōgun]]. It is part of Nobunaga's larger campaign that sought to reunite [[Japan]] during the [[Sengoku period]].
 
In 1570, Nobunaga sent an invitation to local warlords for a reception in [[Kyoto]] on the behalf of shōgun [[Ashikaga Yoshiaki]], though this invitation also served as a test to check who would accept his authority. {{Wiki|Asakura Yoshikage}}, daimyo of {{Wiki|Echizen Province|Echizen}}, refused the summon,<ref name="Echoes Shadows 05">''[[Echoes of History]]'' – Shadows – Episode 5: Oda Nobunaga</ref> which Nobunaga argued was an offense to both the shogun and the [[Michihito|emperor]]<ref>{{WP|Siege of Kanegasaki (1570)}}</ref> and launched a campaign to besiege the Asakura's {{Wiki|Kanagasaki Castle|main stronghold}}.<ref name="Echoes Shadows 05"/>
 
Because the Asakura clan had a multi-generational alliance relationship with the {{Wiki|Azai clan}}, [[Azai Nagamasa]], Nobunaga's brother-in-law, felt obligated to aid the Asakura and attacked Nobunaga's forces' rear, forcing Nobunaga to stop the siege and retreat, while a rear guard held off the combined forces of the Azai-Asakura. Feeling personally betrayed by a man he considered family, Oda would clash with the Azai-Asakura forces only months after, in the [[Battle of Anegawa]], which ended in a resounding victory for his side.<ref name="Echoes Shadows 05"/>

The '''Ishiyama Hongan-ji War''' was a [[Sengoku period|Sengoku]] military campaign by [[Oda Nobunaga]] and his forces against the [[Ikkō-ikki]], a faction of the {{Wiki|Jōdo Shinshū}} [[Buddhism|Buddhist]] sect, lasting from 1570 until 1580.
 
The Jōdo Shinshū were a sect whose power and wealth worried Nobunaga, who feared that the sect could issue a statement against him, declaring him an enemy and raising armies from their followers. He then launched a siege against their {{Wiki|Ishiyama Hongan-ji|main compound}} in [[Osaka]], which lasted much longer than expected due to the waterways leading to the complex since Chief Abbot {{Wiki|Kōsa}} had allies that managed to supply the castle by sea until Oda eventually defeated these mariners.<ref name="Echoes Shadows 01">''[[Echoes of History]]'' – Shadows – Episode 1: Civil War in Feudal Japan: The Sengoku Period</ref>
 
The Ikkō-ikki surrendered in 1580, after a court noble was sent by [[Michihito|Emperor Ōgimachi]] to broker a settlement between the two parties.<ref name="Echoes Shadows 05">''[[Echoes of History]]'' – Shadows – Episode 5: Oda Nobunaga</ref> When the Ikkō-ikki were forced out of their fortress, Kōsa's son set fire to the complex, not wishing for it to fall into Nobunaga's hands.<ref name="Echoes Shadows 01"/>

Nobunaga later had members of the Kitabatake clan assassinated to clear way for Nobukatsu to rise up the hierarchy, essentially taking over the clan from within.<ref name="Echoes Shadows 06">''[[Echoes of History]]'' – Shadows – Episode 6: The Tensho Iga War</ref>
 
==History==
Wishing to establish his reputation, Nobukatsu decided to invade the neighbouring province of [[Iga]] without permission from his father. In 1578, taking the [[Iga-ikki]]'s expulsion of their military governor as an excuse, he dispatched his general, [[Takigawa Kazumasu]], to build a castle for them to use as a staging point for the invasion, though the Takigawa and his forces were forced to retreat by November of the same year. In October 1579, Nobukatsu opts for a larger [[Tenshō Iga War|invasion]], gathering over 10,000 men and entering Iga through three passes: 8,000 going through the northernmost pass, a group of 1,500 and another of 1,300 going through different southern passes. Once again, however, the Iga forces used guerrilla tactics and inflicted heavy losses against Nobukatsu's forces, making him retreat.<ref name="Echoes Shadows 06"/>
 
Nobunaga, learning of his son's humiliating defeat, threatened to disown him, though did not follow through with it. Nobunaga took over the campaign against Iga and defeated them in 1581. In early November of that year, Nobunaga visited Iga before withdrawing his army from it and giving it for Nobukatsu to administer.<ref name="Echoes Shadows 06"/>

[[Ashikaga Yoshiaki]]
{{Era|Individuals}}{{WP-REAL}}
'''Ashikaga Yoshiaki''' (足利 義昭, 1537 – 1597) was the 15th and final [[shōgun]] of the {{Wiki|Ashikaga shogunate}}, ruling [[Japan]] from 1568 to 1573.<ref>{{WP|Ashikaga Yoshiaki}}</ref>
 
==History==
In 1565, Yoshiaki's older brother, shōgun {{Wiki|Ashikaga Yoshitero}} was assassinated and replaced with a puppet ruler, prompting Yoshiaki to travel around the provinces seeking someone who would become his benefactor and back his claim as shōgun. In 1568, just after [[Oda Nobunaga]] had established himself at [[Gifu Castle]], Yoshiaki visited the [[daimyō]].<ref name="Echoes Shadows 05">''[[Echoes of History]]'' – Shadows – Episode 5: Oda Nobunaga</ref> Nobunaga, being given a pretext to march on [[Kyoto]], becomes his ally.<ref name="Echoes Shadows 07">''[[Echoes of History]]'' – Shadows – Episode 7: Kyoto: Japan's Imperial City</ref> In November of the same year, Nobunaga entered Kyoto with his army and installed Yoshiaki as shōgun. Yoshiaki offered his benefactor the position of deputy shōgun, but Nobunaga declined.<ref name="Echoes Shadows 05"/>
 
Though he attempted to rule, Yoshiaki noticed that his power relied on Nobunaga's. By 1572 there was tension between the two, with Nobunaga issuing several admonishments causing Yoshiaki to take offense. Yoshiaki began to orchestrate against him, trying to convince other daimyō to turn against Nobunaga and "rescue" Yoshiaki in Kyoto. In 1573, Yoshiaki rebelled, leading to Nobunaga's forces marching on Kyoto and expelling him. He managed to escape with his life and took up residence with the Mori family in Western Japan. From there he would continue to attempt to undermine Nobunaga, but could not manage to overthrow his enemy nor to reinstall himself as shōgun.<ref name="Echoes Shadows 05"/>

[[Imagawa Yoshimoto]]
{{Era|Individuals}}{{WP-REAL}}
'''Imagawa Yoshimoto''' (今川 義元, 1519 – 1560) was a [[Japan]]ese [[daimyō]] in the [[Sengoku period]]. A powerful warrior, Imagawa controlled {{Wiki|Suruga Province|Suruga}}, {{Wiki|Tōtōmi Province|Tōtōmi}}, and {{Wiki|Mikawa Province|Mikawa Provinces}} and was in constant conflict with his western neighbour, [[Owari|Owari Province]], first under [[Oda Nobuhide]] and later under [[Oda Nobunaga]].<ref name="Echoes Shadows 05">''[[Echoes of History]]'' – Shadows – Episode 5: Oda Nobunaga</ref>
 
==History==
In 1560, Imagawa decided to attempt to march on [[Kyoto]] and seize control of the central government of Japan, raising 25,000 troops for his invasion. The march had to go through Owari to reach the capital, though Imagawa's forces outnumbered Nobunaga's almost 10 to 1. His invasion of Owari began with significant successes, taking several forts.<ref name="Echoes Shadows 05"/>
 
Imagawa was with only a few thousand troops, with the rest of his men spread out, when they decided to rest and celebrate their future win at the small gorge of Dengakuhazama. While there, a rainstrom hit, allowing Nobunaga's forces to position themselves for a direct attack against Imagawa and his forces. At first, Imagawa assumed it was a drunken brawl between his men, realizing only too late he was under attack. Imagawa was killed and beheaded, leading to his surviving men to either surrender or flee.<ref name="Echoes Shadows 05"/>

[[Battle of Okehazama]]
{{Era|Timeline}}{{WP-REAL}}
The '''Battle of Okehazama''' was a [[Sengoku period|Sengoku]] military confrontation between the invading forces of [[Imagawa Yoshimoto]] and the defensive forces of [[Oda Nobunaga]] in [[Owari Province]], [[Japan]] on 12 June 1560.
 
==History==
In 1560, Imagawa, then controlling {{Wiki|Suruga Province|Suruga}}, {{Wiki|Tōtōmi Province|Tōtōmi}}, and {{Wiki|Mikawa Province|Mikawa Provinces}}, decided to attempt to march on [[Kyoto]] and seize control of the central government of Japan, raising 25,000 troops for his invasion. The march had to go through Owari to reach the capital, though this seemed easy since Nobunaga's forces were about one tenth of Imagawa's. Though Nobunaga's advisors counseled him to withdraw to {{Wiki|Kiyosu Castle}} and attempt to withstand a siege, he decided to seek an opening and attack.<ref name="Echoes Shadows 05">''[[Echoes of History]]'' – Shadows – Episode 5: Oda Nobunaga</ref>
 
By midday, the Imagawa forces had made progress against the Oda, with its vanguard taking over several forts. Imagawa was with only a few thousand troops, with the rest of his men spread out, when they decided to make camp and celebrate their future win at the small gorge of Dengakuhazama. While there, a rainstrom hit, allowing Nobunaga's forces to position themselves for a direct attack against Imagawa and his men. At first, Imagawa assumed it was a drunken brawl between his men, realizing only too late he was under attack. Imagawa was killed and beheaded, leading to his surviving men to either surrender or flee.<ref name="Echoes Shadows 05"/>
 
With the Imagawa family losing his leader, several of their retainers were able to claim independance, including [[Tokugawa Ieyasu]], who established himself in his home province of Mikawa and allied himself with Nobunaga.<ref name="Echoes Shadows 05"/>
