In March 1582,

The Takeda family of Kai died out
when Takeda Katsuyori committed suicide.

To Sanada who had been served Takeda,
Hojo demanded compliance.

Masayuki's younger brother Nobutada said
Sanada should side with Tokugawa.

Sanada was too minuscule to
survive without making an ally.

SANADA MASAYUKI
They have to define their attitude now.

Masayuki, by the advice of his eldest son Nobuyuki,

TSUBOYA MATAGORO
secretly wrote Nobunaga to show his submission.

OKO

We're almost there.

MUKAI SAHEIJI

OKUMURA YAGOΒΕΙ

ANRAKUJI TEMPLE

Sir Yagobei.

I want you to take care of him for a while.

KOSUKE
He's injured.

He's related to Sir Matagoro.

To Sir Tsuboya?

Please leave everything to me.

There are great hot springs here in Bessho.

Have a bath and take care of your wound.

Let's go.

-See you, Sir Yagobei.
-Excuse me.

Where are you going?

You don't have to know.

Miss Oko.

Aren't you going to follow
the Oda spy who fled earlier?

I have to fight against him to the finish at any cost.

I will find him and then...

You must cherish your life.

IWABITSU CASTLE, KOZUKE
(Currently Known as Gunma Prefecture)

Name: Higuchi Akihisa, Lord of Shimoosa

SANADA NOBUYUKI
Aunt.

Yes.

Staying in your room forever will
make you feel even more depressed.

You should go out once in a while.

It's getting warmer.

Why don't you pick some flowers?

HISANO
You're so sweet saying that to me, Genzaburo.

I'm doing nothing.

You are my mother's sister.

Genjiro and I think Kakubei as our real brother.

YAYOI

SANADA YUKIMURA

Kaku.

HIGUCHI KAKUBΕΙ

Hey.

Sir Kakubei.

You must be missing your father,
but you have me and my brother here.

Lift your spirits.

You and Brother Genza cannot be my father.

Of course, we can't. But...

You can't be depressed forever.

Your father will be disappointed in heaven
seeing such a sissy son.

Well, you know...

Since it's been so warm...

I found this snake squirming out!

It's a rope. Just a rope.

Kaku.

Why don't you go Bessho with me?

We can have a bath and get refreshed.

Who wants to have a bath?

What happened?

Brother Genji doesn't know how to be considerate.

My father's death is nothing to him.

How dare...
how dare can he show me something like this?

How dare can he tell me to go Bessho?
His joke has gone too far.

I'm not joking.

-Then, you're too mischievous!
-Enough, Kaku.

I see. I'll go Bessho to be mischievous all by myself.

I don't like Brother Genji.

That was his way of cheering you up.

I don't like that!

Genjiro and I are blood related brothers.

If you don't like Genjiro, you don't like me.

-No! That's...
-Listen, Kaku.

I know how sad you are having lost your father,
but your mother must be feeling even sadder.

You are the only heir for the Higuchi Family.

You shouldn't be depressed like that forever.

Pull yourself together, so your
mother can depend on you.

BESSHO HOT SPRING

Do you live around here?

No... I am...

How did you get that wound?

Battle?

Yes.

Where?

Um...

Were you in Takato?

Yes...

So you were in Takato.

I'm glad you survived.

It's truly auspicious.

This spring water heals wounds good.

That's my horse.

Are you travelling?

I'm going to Sanada Estate tomorrow.

-Do you know anyone there?
-No.

Yes. I was told to visit someone.

I see.

Well, I'm glad you survived.

Young lord.

I met him in hot spring. He said he stays here.

Miss Oko brought him over from Takato.

Oh, is that so?

She said he is related to Sir Tsuboya.

-To Matagoro?
-Yes.

Did you say you are going
to Sanada Estate tomorrow?

Yes.

-I'll take you there.
-Oh, no.

Kosuke, I'm hungry.

Bring over something to eat later.

-We have nothing great here.
-That's all right.

-Is the head priest in his residence?
-Yes.

Hey, it's been a while. Be a good boy.

Excuse me.

Who is he?

-You didn't know and just followed him?
-Yes.

He is Sanada's young lord.

The younger one of two brothers, Sir Genjiro.

Lord, my sister, and even Sir Genzaburo told me
to say here in Iwabitsu.

Yes.

Now, you must become their vassal
and serve the Sanada Family.

I'm determined to do so.

-Really? Are you?
-Yes.

If possible, I want to serve Brother Genza.

I want to become a direct vassal for him.

-I'm going to do anything for Brother Genza.
-Well said!

I'm glad to hear that.

You are the only person I can depend on.

-I have no one else to depend on.
-Yes.

What?

If you have anyone in your mind,
why don't you marry again?

What? How dare...?

He is Sanada's ninja, Miyanotsuka Saizo.

MIYANOTSUKA SAIZO
He is the best explosives specialist.

-Do you have message from Matagoro?
-Yes, my lord.

Excuse me.

The secret letter from Matagoro was telling
how Nobunaga rewarded his vassals.

According to the letter,

Nobunaga acknowledged leyasu's achievements during his
attack against Takeda and gave Suruga Province to leyasu.

Takigawa Ichimasu received Numata in Kozuke,
and Chiisagata and Saku in Shinano.

Chiisagata is in the Ueda-daira Area or
Sanada Estate where the Sanada clan started.

In short, Oda Nobunaga is trying to widen his power
into Masayuki's territory.

Chiisagata is Sanada's land.

Sanada's birthplace.

I'm not going to let him do anything he wants.

How about defying Ichimasu?

YAZAWA YORIYASU
Then, Nobunaga won't leave us alone.

Right.

If Takigawa Ichimasu is alone,
I can easily beat him up.

If I refuse, I will have Oda,
Tokugawa and Hojo for an enemy.

Yes.

I'm not afraid of battles.

-Instead, I'm getting excited.
-But, Father...

If we fight, Sanada will follow Takeda.

I know!

I already know that.

I think you should accept Takigawa Ichimasu quietly.

I agree with Sir Genzaburo.

Father, you should go to Numata
and meet Takigawa Ichimasu.

-Father...
-All right!

I'm saying I know that.

I already know I have to do that, but...

-It's so vexing.
-Nobunaga might be...

Testing Sanada.

What?

He wants to figure out our true intentions
after he received a horse from us.

Damn Nobunaga... Damn Genzaburo...

Damn Nobunaga!

LADY YAMANOTE

What is wrong?

Well...

I can't sleep well.

Oh, just stay there.

Lie down, dear. Just lie down.

What are you doing?

Well... because I can't sleep.

What nerve?

Nerve? What do you mean?

If you can't sleep, why don't you have some drink?

Wait!

Why did you follow me?

-I'm sorry.
-I'm asking why you followed me.

My lady...

My lady told me to see if you are being good
and going back to your bedroom.

I see.

Good.

I'm going back.

I'm going back to my bedroom.
Understood?

I'm not going anywhere.

I'm just going back to my bedroom.
Watch me.

I'm going back.

Ouch!

Saheiji, how do you like Ueda-daira?
Big land, isn't it?

Yes!

It's a great land with fruits of each season,
like peaches, chestnuts, persimmons and walnuts.

Well, my homeland Takato is great, too.

-I'm sorry, sir.
-That's all right.

I don't like people who don't
brag about their homeland.

Yes.

Do you have family in Takato?

No, my parents died already.

How are you related to Matagoro?

Well, I'm not quite sure.

She said he is related to my father.

He is a great ninja who used to
work for Lord Takeda Shingen.

After Lord Shingen passed away,
Lord Katsuyori gave him to my father.

As the chief of our ninja, he is
indispensable for Sanada now.

Did you say she is Oko?

-Yes?
-The woman who took you out of the battlefield.

Oh, that lady called Oko.

I hear her name from time to time.

What kind of woman is she?

Well... I don't know...

I heard she is a brave warrior who runs around
with men and survived a number of dreadful scenes.

-Is she like a wild bore?
-No.

-Is she short-tempered?
-Oh, no.

She is like the Goddess of Kannon sometimes.

When she gets mad, she is like the God of Fire.

She scared me a couple of times
with her strong-minded attitude.

-Is she strong-minded?
-Yes.

I don't like strong-minded women.

SANADA ESTATE, NINJA HOUSE
Hey, Toji! What are you doing?

Hurry and climb up! Here you go, Toji!

SAWAYAMA TOJI
Stop it, Jinpachi!

ANEYAMA JINPACHI
Hey, Toji! Climb up!

Stop.

YOKOZAWA YOSHICHI
Yoshichi.

Oh, young lord!

Young lord!

Welcome.

Since I came to Bessho.

-Is the Lord doing well?
-Yeah.

-Jinpachi, take his horse.
-No, I have to leave now.

I took him over here.

I'm Mukai Saheiji.

I heard about you from Oko.

She told me to let you stay here
until Sir Matagoro comes back.

Thank you.

I can't hold!

-I can't hold anymore!
-He's falling!

-He fell.
-Are you OK?

I'm leaving.

What is it, Saheiji?

Nothing.

Bye, Yoshichi.

Have a safe trip.

Saheiji!

I like you.

Come to Iwabitsu. Work for me.

Yes, sir!

Good. Yoshichi, tell Matagoro I took Saheiji.

You know, Saheiji.

When I run on horseback at full speed,
I feel wind blowing through my body.

When the wind blows through my body,

I feel as if my heart, guts and liver are blown
out of my body. It's tremendously comfortable.

This is the mansion I was born.

I was born over there.

Not in the castle?

No.

Don't tell anybody.

You'd better not.

Let's go.

Mother.

Please continue.

I wonder why the Lord went to Numata.

Probably...

Yes?

He's having a meeting with Uncle Yazawa.

What is it?

You're so sweet, Genzaburo.

Yes?

You're so considerate. You're trying to
make me feel better. It makes me happy.

Mother?

I know that.

He's having an affair with a woman in Numata.

I don't know.

-Lord has been like this all the time when it comes to women.
-Mother.

You're being considerate to me
while you're trying to cover up for your father.

I'm just...

As you can see, having dinner.

I wonder if he knows your consideration.

-Why does he adore only Genjiro!
-Mother!

Genzaburo, I wonder what kind
of woman he has in Numata.

I heard her late husband was a foot soldier.

How did you...?

She must have a gorgeous
body. She must be younger...

I don't know.

How old is she?

Mother.

I, too, want to be younger again...

But no one can be younger again.

I am no match for younger women.

Mother.

Genzaburo. You're the only person I can depend on.

What are you talking about?
You have Father and Genjiro, too.

I beg you.

Please go and see what he's doing in Numata.

Brother!

Brother!

-Ah, you're back.
-Yes.

Brother, I hired a man.

He is related to Matagoro.

-Yeah?
-Saheiji!

This is my brother.

I am Mukai Saheiji, sir.

-Where's Father?
-He went to Numata.

To Numata?

-Will you recommend Saheiji to Father?
-Got it.

Saheiji.

I'll show you the castle. Follow me.

Yes, my lord!

Kaku.

This is Saheiji.

He is my cousin, Higuchi Kakubei.

Let's go.

How can he? You don't have a vassal yet.

-What's wrong?
-How can he have a vassal before his elder brother.

Then, you become my vassal.

Yes!

You must be Mukai Saheiji.

Yes.

You must be...

Sir Tsuboya?

Thanks to you, I am alive like this.

From now on, you have to serve Sir Genjiro.

Yes!

Tell me, sir.

How did you know my father?

Sir Matagoro.

Thanks for your troubles saving him.

Yes, he was a big trouble.

He cried when Takato Castle fell,
and he didn't listen to me.

I heard you were chasing an Oda spy.

I looked around all over, but I couldn't find him.

-Well, then, are you going back to work?
-Yes.

Keep an eye on Nobunaga.

Yes.

NUMATA CASTLE, KOZUKE
(Currently Known as Gunma Prefecture)

My lord.

Is it true that somebody is taking Numata Castle?

Poor you.

Do you really think so?

Yes.

How sweet of you, Toku.

Why do you think so?

You're trying to comfort me.

I've been having headache because of that,
but my wife doesn't care about me at all.

The other day...

Hey, are you listening?

OTOKU
Yes.

I went to her bedroom, but she kicked me out.

Do not move, my lord.

To a man who takes care of his fiefs and his clan,
women are oasis.

Place of relaxation.

-My wife doesn't try to understand that.
-It's done.

Done!

I heard your wife in Iwabitsu
is from, how should I say...

From a Kyoto-based noble
family called Imadegawa. Right?

Why does that matter?

Then, it's not her fault that
she doesn't know much about lower class samurai.

Yes?

Right.

You might be right.

Marrying a noble woman was the greatest...

Well, that wasn't my choice.
Lord Shingen forced me to marry her.

But her younger sister is not
like her. She's much easier...

Never mind.

Say, my lord.

Your wife might already know about me.

No way!

Then, it's OK.

Even if she knows, I don't care.

I don't care.

I can just make you my concubine.

You know, think about Lord
Hideyoshi (Lord of Chikuzen),

Tokugawa leyasu and Lord Shingen.
Everybody has concubines.

Look at me. I have no concubine.
Only one concubine doesn't hurt.

My lord!

-Right, Honey? O-TO-KU.
-My lord.

Reporting.

Lord of Satsuma is asking you to come over.

All right.

CONFERENCE ROOM, NUMATA CASTLE
You're here, Matagoro.

I left everything to Oko and
came here to report to you.

Nobunaga left Hamamatsu. He's heading west now.

To Kyoto?

Probably.

Nobunaga must be thinking of
inviting leyasu to Kyoto to reward him.

Have you heard anything from
Takigawa Sakon-no-Shogen (Ichimasu)?

That's it.

He sent me a messenger yesterday.
He wants to meet me sometime soon.

This is Genzaburo.

-What?
-Please come in.

Genzaburo, why did you leave the castle?

I apologize for having left
the castle without your permission.

I'm asking you why you left the castle.

Because I heard
you had a messenger from Takigawa Ichimasu.

It was me

YAZAWA YORITSUNA
who sent him a letter in Iwabitsu.

What do you want to say to me?

As I told you the other day,
please accept Takigawa Ichimasu quietly.

Why didn't you just send me a vassal instead?

Right.

Genzaburo.

You've been acting too far saying I should side
with Nobunaga and I should accept Takigawa.

You're.. you're... who do you think...?
-He is...

The heir of the Sanada.

Since he is the heir,
I called him to be part of this important meeting.

-I see.
-Yes.

-Matagoro.
-Yes.

What kind of person is Takigawa
Sakon-no-Shogen (Ichimasu)?

He helped Nobunaga when Nobunaga was younger, and have
numerous achievements. Also, he is a rifle expert.

He seems to be a generous-hearted,
good-natured and sincere man.

Well, it might be better than
giving to Uji-bug (maggot)...

Excuse me?

You know, Uncle. Hojo Ujimasa.

Rather than giving this castle to the Uji-bug
(maggot), maybe I should give it to Takigawa so-and-so.

Good! I'll meet him.

I'll meet him. But I can't guarantee
what kind of conclusion I'll reach after that.

-Genzaburo.
-Yes.

-Go back now and guard the castle.
-Yes.

Matagoro.

I'm counting on you.

I'm gathering as many spies as possible
to prepare for the situation.

-Sir Gengoro.
-Yes.

Do you hate Genzaburo?

What are you talking about?

He is my son.

I'm sorry.

It's not true that I hate him, but...

Genzaburo is too good.

He scares me sometimes.

I can't feel at ease with him.

IWABITSU CASTLE On the
day when Masayuki meets Takigawa Ichimasu,

Brothers in Iwabitsu are armed
and waiting for the turn of events.

NUMATA CASTLE

I am Takigawa Sakon-no-Shogen Ichimasu.

I am Sanada Masayuki, Lord of Awa.

I can imagine how painful it has been to you.

Thank you for your consideration.

-Numata is a magnificent castle.
-Yes.

Speaking of Iwabitsu, Toishi and Sanada,

I want you to govern Chiisagata
in Shinano as before.

What did you say?

Just like I have to ride a horse you've never ridden, it
feels somewhat uncomfortable to sit on a land I've never been.

Horse, too, will feel comfortable
when the regular rider holds the reins.

Thank you very much.

Not at all.

Ichimasu's grandson, Takigawa Sankuro Kazuatsu,
will be closely related to the Sanada in future.

Nobody could imagine that at this time.

NINJA'S HIDEOUT, SHIMO-KOGA
This is one of the hideouts Sanada's ninja use.

It is located in Shimo-Koga,
about 2 miles south of Kyoto.

SHIKANO GONZA

Gonza, Nobunaga is going
to attack Mori in Chugoku.

Is that true?

He ordered Akechi Mitsuhide to go into battle.

Because Hideyoshi is not
making much progress there.

-Report to Sanada.
-Understood.

KYOTO
June 1582

Nobunaga was in Kyoto after he left Azuchi Castle.

Oko was in Kyoto, too.

Nobunaga was staying at Honnoji Temple
with a small number of attendants.

Oko walked around the temple
a couple of times every day

To check what kind of people visited Nobunaga.

Nekota Yosuke...

So he is in Kyoto.

NEKOTA YOSUKE

Tomorrow Sir Akechi is leaving the
castle in Kameyama to go to Mori's lands.

-Was there anything out of ordinary
during your trip? -No. How's Lord Nobunaga?

He started a party this evening.
He's going to bed early tonight.

Why the Akechi Army is in Kyoto?

They are heading toward Honnoji Temple!

Oko.

See you again.

That night, Akechi Mitsuhide and his soldiers
attacked Nobunaga in Honnoji Temple.

Nobunaga slit his belly.
His 49 year-life burnt out in flames at Honnoji.

What did you say?

Nobunaga was killed by
Akechi Mitsuhide at Honnoji.

Father.

-Prepare for battles.
-Yes!

-Before Hojo comes, I will take Numata Castle.
-Yes!

Go!

Takigawa Ichimatsu had already left Numata Castle
as soon as he heard the news about Nobunaga.

Sanada Army did not have to fight
to enter the castle.

I feel sorry for Sir Takigawa, but I didn't want to
give this castle to Hojo Uji-bugs (maggots).

-Right.
-Hojo must be vexed now.

Yes. He wanted this castle.

Nobunaga is dead now.
Uesugi in Echigo will make a move.

-Are they going to invade Shinano?
-Probably.

I need another castle.

To prepare for Uesugi's attack,
I definitely need a castle in Chiisagata.

In 1582,

Takeda died down in March,
and Oda Nobunaga died in June.

Japan was entering a period of upheaval.
