- Join us as we take a look at the lore surrounding people and events of one of the most important battles in Japanese history, the Battle of Sekigahara. The battle and the characters in it form a pivotal focus in Nioh, Team Ninja's upcoming PS4 exclusive which releases February 7th, 2017. As this is a historical account, there will be potential spoilers for the game.

All I can say is Wow. Honestly, this is super high quality. This gets me even more hyped for Nioh. You got a new sub my man.
We're hyped too! And thanks for the sub :D
Nice video !
Two little things, though :
-Shimazu Yoshihiro was forced to retire and become a monk by the Tokugawa after Sekigahara, his son inheriting Satsuma lands.
-Otani Yoshitsugu was not betrayed by his men but Kobayakawa Hideaki switched sides during the battle and flanked Otani forces, crushing them.
And it's funny how the Tachibana are always portrayed as a loving couple while in reality Muneshige divorced and forced Ginchyo (her buddhist name) to become a nun when she failed to produce heirs. He then remaried but never had children.
SPOILERS :
Other Characters were revealed :
-Yagyu Munetoshi and Marune Nagayoshi, master swordsmen.
-Inei Hozoin, master spearman.
-Tenkai Nankobo, priest and Ieyasu's advisor.
-Yasuke first black man to arrive in Japan, sold to Oda Nobunaga as a "curiosity", depicted in the game as his bodygard.
-Saiga Magoichi, legendary mercenary specialised in firearms.
You guys are such a great asset to the gaming community, this video is wonderful and has enhanced my already amazing Nioh playthrough more (which I didn't think was possible). Thank you, Ivory Samoan.
Thank you for the kind words. It's a great game and knowing a bit of history certainly adds to the fun.
This hypes the hype even more
The hype is real!
Look up the mini-series called Shogun (1980). It's a fictional account of William Adams (renamed John Blackthorne) and will definitely get the hype train rolling.
Tachibana Muneshige is a bit short, here is a bit longer, he was known as the Warrior of the West as his martial prowess on the battlefield is comparable to Honda Tadataktsku. Beside being an excellent swordman, he was a poet, an artist and also a skillful at tea ceremony.
He armed his troops with katanas which is a bit extra longer than normal standard katanas for it time. He and Ginchyo never bore any children, some say they even disliked each other. Although Muneshige has a mistress he was fond of but died before giving birth to any children of his.
His last battle where he showed his skill as a military tactician and warrior was the Shimabara Rebellion before passing away peacefully in 1643.
Credit to Team Ninja and KOEI who took extra care with the Armor being exact similar to the historical counterpart. Alot of the armor that the character wore existed. Notably Tokugawa Ieyasu armor during Sekigahara.
Now this is one I want to learn more about since Nioh is pretty much wanting me to learn about Japanese history and culture.
I am very glad to see this video because Japans history and culture is so fascinating to read and study. Keep up the awesome videos
Happy you enjoyed it! :D
This helps a lot. It makes the game feel more connected to history. Great quality in the video work. Nice job.
Thank you! Happy you enjoyed it :)
The history and culture presented in the game is excellent !
I, for one, am hyped to see Shimazu Toyohisa join forces with Hanzo to battle the Clone Army and the Four Kings after spilling leprosy pus in Emperor Xerxes' tea =)
LOL you win the internet!
Lmao
just to clarify, Otani Yoshitsugu wasn't betrayed by his own men but by a general of the western army Kobayakawa Hideaki. He had one his men to cut of his head.
on another note the hanzo who helps us is the son and the one who was known as demon hanzo is the toad boss
One tiny mistake is when you said Toyotomi Hideyoshi's son was dead. Toyotomi Hideyori who was very young at the time of the battle, grew up and led a rebellion, failing Hideyori's suicide at 22 was the last obstacle to Tokugawa Ieyasu’s bid to establish his own family as the preeminent power in Japan.
It was mis-read, it was meant to say his "first" son was dead (who was adopted), and that his inheritance defender died a year later so Tokugawa saw to seize power.
no worries funny story about that is when Hideyori was born and then his adopted son "died" Hideyoshi also had the rest of his family put to death, my guess is that so his son could inherent the throne.
Excellent job. You're mostly correct, and managed to cover overall history fact they used in game. I always find this kind of game fascinating.
Very impressive video! Thanks for sharing your research with us :)
And Honda Tadakatsu was a fucking Gundam.
thank you for making this really high quality video i appreciate this video so much this video hypes me up but makes me happy also because i really wanted to learn about the historical figures in this game thanks keep it
You're welcome! There'll be more info on the wiki pages for both real characters and yokai
Bravo! Great piece man.
Thank you! Glad you enjoyed it :D
Great work
Amazing video I love learning about this Era so much! which is why I play games like Samurai Warriors, Sengoku Basara Toukiden etc. I hope you can do a video like this for most of the NPC and figures. The Saika Clan and Sanada Clan were my favorates
Happy you enjoyed it!
Great video! Found out some interesting info about temples. Especially useful info, because im planning Japan trip next year. So, Sainenji temple is on my list to visit now! Thanks a lot :)
We have an article coming up with some pictures of some of my favorite temples, keep an eye on the fextralife blog if you're interested! fextralife.com/bloodborne-the-best-rpg-of-its-generation/
Sweet! Thanks for the insight. Very enjoyable to watch.
Glad you liked it :D
i heard the name a lot, but was too lazy to look it up tbh, that's done now ;)
DKS Four Kings Detected XD
haha nice catch ;)
lol at madara & 3rd hokage pic as the truce, we know how that ended up.
Haha :P
This was thoroughly enjoying
Great to hear! Nioh is going to be so much fun
Fun fact - Nioh tells the story of important events in sengoku period and sekiro is the fictional story of what happened after sengoku period
thank for this :D
0:27 this is so true. played nioh 1 and im going through nioh 2's dlc's right now and I constantly have moments where I'm like: "Holy shit! Is that who I think it is?!...IT IIIIISSSS!!!" or "Holy shit, we actually whitness Oda's place getting burned down."
This is the best thing you can do in a game. Combine it with history, fairely accurately depicted and sprinkling culture, folklore and mythology in.
If i may add Hideyoshi was not the shogun since he was a peasant so they would only let him have title of regent.
very well done!!!!
Respect Nioh. And arigato Fex-san for the in-depth explanation! ^.^ *bows*
Glad you enjoyed! Cut some corners to get some of the main concepts through, if you're interesting in history stuff we'll be publishing some more on the blog! :)
Looking forward to it! ^.^
Then you look at all the Yokaj lore as well, man they put some dedication and thought into this game
I think it was nioh who inspired FromSoft to make sekiro a japanese style game instead of another western style game
I love the fact they have Japanese History and mythology in one game I hoping the story is great
Nioh is an artistic cultural tour de force in both history and gaming .. it s a wonderful experience
Damn, love this. Subbed!
Any suggestion on what movie that is worth to watch based on this era?
There are some old movies (80s) and a lot of Drama from the period.
However, a new movie is coming out in Japan in August 2017 called
"Sekigahara" that will probably be just what you want :)
6:14 that gintama episode was great XD
Also, may I add something to correct the video, Toyotomi Hideyori (Hideyoshi's son and only heir to the Toyotomi clan before its eventual demise in 1615) did not died by the time Battle of Sekigahara take place. Mitsunari battled against Tokugawa is to protect the legacy of Hideyoshi's will.
talking about the first real son, and the adopted nephew forced to commit seppuku - he had left behind a mess that was undone when maeda died. had there been a grown up ready to take position this may not have happened
great story.. Currently playing this game, it's very challenging but rewarding..
It's indeed very enjoyable!
Very impressive video
Thank you :D
wow really well done man. thanks so much for making this. ○/ high five
Thank you! Happy you enjoyed it :D
"William was not a part of the battle itself." Well damn, there goes my end game dream of fighting an entire army on my own :(
But we will get to fight "the most brutal overlord of them all" I'm ready for that
D3th10rd A famistu article mentioned that William is a "combatant among 10,000" in the game during the battle of Sekigahara
The game may not follow history to the letter, so you may get your chance ;)
Toyotomi Hideyoshi was never Shogun, because he was born a commoner named Hiyoshi-maru. However he would go from being the son of a peasant-ashigaru to the most powerful man in Japan and the second of the Great Uniters.
His rise to power occurred after his successful building of Sunomata Castle during the Oda clan's war against the Saito clan. This castle, said to have been built in one night, was instrumental in the fall of Inabayama Castle and the defeat of the Saito clan.
As a result of this and several other victories he quickly became a leading general for Oda Nobunaga. After Nobunaga's death at Honnō-ji he defeated Akechi Mitsuhide to assume leadership of the Oda clan. He would later go on to convince Tokugawa Ieyasu to serve him as a retainer following the Battle of Komaki and Nagakute, later unifying Japan after the fall of the Hojo.
Despite his position as the leading warlord in Japan, much like Oda Nobunaga, he would never be granted the position of Shogun and the closest he ever got was the position of Imperial Regent of Japan despite having the same level of power.
The Toyotomi would fall largely due to the harsh and brutal punishments handed out by Hideyoshi when his brother Hidetsugu was accused of treason. Hidetsugu's entire family, bar one daughter, were executed including the execution of the 15 year old daughter of Mogami Yoshiaki which would cause nany clans, especially the Mogami clan, to side with Ieyasu at the Battle of Sekigahara. Following the winter and summer Sieges of Osaka Castle the Toyotomi were crushed entirely and the clan dissolved.
We simplified a lot, as it was too much to cram into a short video and for simplicity sake acting shogun it is. The reason this all went down this way is because hideyoshi ordered his adoptive son and nephew to commit seppuku in an attempt to get his second real son in the inheritance list. With maedas death, Tokugawa saw his chance to dispute, and after sekigahara became shogun, spelling the beggining of the end of sengoku.
amazing
Thank you :D
Studying the history of my country is so damn boring compared to Japan's :/
This was such a cool video whether you are a NiOh fan or not, thanks a lot for the lesson Senpai!
Happy you enjoed it! :D
Yeah american history is not as fascinating due to it being a young country
Very good production and well thought out! Liked the cheeky "Four Kings" flashes!
Criticism:
- Histyory? Intentional?
- Naruto/300/Star Wars footage. Funny, but unnecessary.
- Pronunciation of names, places, etc. Most are fine, but some are glaring: "Takugawa." Most people won't care, though.
The typos and pronunciation are due to time constraints and late night editing to get this out before leaks started taking over - the funny stuff... just preference :P
Ty for watching! :D
I'm not into this game since no pc release but I loved your video
Glad you enjoyed it!
I'm surprised there was no mention of Sanada Yukimara. Sure he wasn't directly involved in the battle of Sekigahara, instead fighting at the second siege of Ueda Castle, which stopped 32000 (or something like that) men from reinforcing Iyeasu at the battle of Sekigahara, but the guy is a historical figure from this time and the poster boy for another koei tecmo franchise.
dff sanada is in onimusha. capcom has that, not KT
dff during the battle of sekigahara yukimura and his father were defending ueda castle from Ieyasu's son hidetada who was unable to participate at sekigahara.
Yukimura should be in the dlc of the Osaka campaign.
I agree. In fact, he is one of the Five Generals of Osaka (remaining four are Goto Matabe, Mori Katsunaga, Chosokabe Morichika and Asahi Takenori) that defending the Toyotomi Clan that is lead by Toyotomi Hideyori from the Shogunate in 1615, and also the only person Tokugawa feared even in his final days.
Just know this by watching Sanada Maru tv series.
They are two dlc of the winter and summer siege of Osaka so he will most likely be in that
I LOVE GINCHIYO TACHIBANA AAAH
that cho cho hype train!
Came back to this video b/c of nioh 2
just like afro samurai which is yasuke and the French samurai Jules brunet. plus samurai are great warriors
2:43 is that one of Four Kings from Dark Souls... You bastards :)
Nice catch. Hehehe.
Redar yoo
Shout out to that flash of The Four Kings from DS1 lol
amazing video... amazing game...
ahahahah That 4 kings subliminal message though
Lol glad someone saw it hahaha.
Can i get you to tell me the names of the movies and games you use clips from. especially thoes who is about Samurais, The Battle of Sekigahara and so.
thanks a lot.
Nioh two coming soon please do a video like this for it 🤗
I love the splicing in, for the barest second, an image from the "Four" Kings battles from DS, each time he says something regarding the title of the "Four Heavenly Whatevers". Makes me giggle.
RIP grades
A weapon to surpass Vaati
Lol I am watching this video now in 2020 but it's worth watching!
Yep
Following Nioh's lore is harder than actual game 😜
I am glad i watched whole video
What movie was that ? Not the last samurai the other one
@2:43 what is that from ?
Very glad for this video and nice job. If you make more, please please be more careful with the pronunciation.
I apologize. See disclaimer.
I fuckin saw the dark souls ref.
oni shimazu doesn't mean shimazu demons, the correct meaning is "demon shimazu" or "shimazu the demon".
Indeed, yet the clan is the Shimazu clan and thus the correct naming when applied to the clan.
quick question is the Image shown at 2:42 from dark souls
;)
I see those little Naruto clips
Ninja! :P
He did not attack it until after sekigahara he did take control of it by doing certain political things.
Yes, we simplified things because we had to cram everything into a short video.
Fextralife I see your point just saying it might confuse other people.
Matthew Robertson
There's a written Lore page on the wiki that follows history in general, it is clear there (I think) but I'll look into adding some annotations if many people are confused
I wanna see a bigger variety of enemies in the final game! I hate fighting the guy again and again
There is a huge variety of enemies.
I know you didn't mention it but it's Nobunaga isn't? I am betting "The Devil king" Oda Nobunaga is the final boss, just like onimusha and many other sengoku games. I bet He's the one or his followers that release the demon armies in this game.
We don't have any info on Nobunaga being in game so far. The events of the game are long after his death
Croz Raven you are correct. spoilers.
so they can make sequels and go up to 20 years in niohs timeline before william actually dies if they wanted? im not against this lol
I believe there's DLC planned for the Siege of Osaka Castle, where the rest of the family of the defunct previous leader had its last stand.
Is it possible to meet Miyamoto Musashi ?
xGutz maybe. He fought for the western forces before fleeing the battle and dueling other samurai.
Anjin means - Dark Person - i have a japanese friend who told me that..sub sub!! good job with the video.
Your Japanese friend is incorrect. 三浦按針does not mean dark person - it's a name assumed by William Adams. Your friend may have been thinking of similar sounding words that do not share the same kanji :)
Glad you liked the video! :D
keep up bro ! my mistake then am sry
D Ivanov
No problem - will add more lore to the wiki as the game releases :D
So William Adam married Okatsu, right?
That will be too good to be true 😂
iiiiiido eeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeedo
Hideyoshi was never a shogun but a taiko
If you read the other comments you'll see why we went with this.
you butchered the shit out of these names
not really
If you could learn how to pronounce Japanese vowels once. Just once. It would do wonders for any future videos. It makes people who know better cringe when you cant even take two seconds to look up a pronunciation. Which is unfitting for a video trying to teach people something. The vowel sounds in this particular language never ever change. If you've ever heard more than a couple legitimate Japanese words come out of a native speakers mouth just use them as reference. Or find Nama-senseis' Japanese lessons and just watch the first episode.
Sincerely,
A concerned weeb.
We live in Japan. Cas's accent cannot be helped, I have tried, and when I speak as a native Japanese (Fex) foreigners complain of my English accent. Can't please everyone.
ElfenShow
I'm not the narrator ... It's Castielle, and indeed I couldn't get him to pronounce these well but we were on a time crunch to get things done for the wiki
Would love help with narrations, our video schedule gets rather hectic at times with all we want to do vs what we actually have time for. Will see next time :)
Oh my lord the english accent butchering of japanese names. Like fuck, did you really pronounced Shima Sakon as shima saycond? wtf? Naomasa as nowmasa?
This hypes the hype even more
be hyped! :p
