The mother (died c. June 1579)[1] of Akechi Mitsuhide was a daughter of the Wakasa Takeda clan.[2]
In 1579, when Oda Nobunaga attacked Hatano Hideharu in Yakami Castle for breaking his surrender to Nobunaga's general Mitsuhide and the Oda clan, Mitsuhide sent his mother to Yakami as part of a hostages exchange. However, when Hideharu brazenly requested an audience with his rival, Nobunaga killed him, an act which made the Hatano clan execute Mitsuhide's mother in retaliation. Mitsuhide held Nobunaga responsible for her death[3] and festered a years-long resentment towards him that culminated in an attack on Nobunaga at Honnō-ji temple in 1582.[4]
