Three iconic leaders in the Sengoku period are described their characters as, Nobunaga: Kills the bird if it won’t sing. Hideyoshi: Coaxes the bird sing if it won’t. Ieyasu: Sits back and waits for the bird to sing.
Nobunaga. He mixes the ingredients of the rice cake. Before he can bake the cake, he was force to commit Seppuku. Hideyoshi. He place the cake into the oven. Taken the cake out of the oven and forgotten it. Ieyasu. He had eaten the rice cake . After he had eaten the cake, Ieyasa had found it very good. He order the rice cake to be fix every day as well as share the recipe with rest of Japan.
I describe Ieyasu's personality: Intelligent, patient, cunning, cautious and strategic. Those made Ieyasu became my favourite Samurai leader along with Hideyoshi, despite they were rivals
Indeed very intelligent and cunning! He also lived a long life! My favourite was probably Takeda Shingen, the artwork on his is incredible, must have been quite the man being nicknamed the tiger of Kai
Oda Nobunaga still my favorite of them all. Considered as well how he was betrayed and ended is life, otherwise he would have made even a stronger impact. In Japan stoll is seen as respected or feared even today.
A very good study of Tokugawa Ieyasu was done by a Professor Shaw, an Australian, in 1937 entitled: Tokugawa Ieyasu, Maker of Modern Japan. Basically a Biography, covering all aspects of T.I. life. I am sure Clavell had read this book, and also library books in England on the British relations with 1500 and 1600 Japan.
I've always been captivated by Japanese culture for its discipline and rich heritage. There's a lot we can learn from their amazing stories and real heroes
Wow, I didn't know people outside Japan are interested in Sengoku era, which reminds me of a personal anecdote about it. When I was 12 or something there was this strategic game called Nobunaga's ambition and I was super hooked and literally memorized all daimyos, their famous samurai retainers and where they governed etc. One day, in the Japanese history exam, to my utter surprise, asked students to write down sengoku daimyos as many as possible with extra score 1 pts per daimyo. And as you expect I totally nailed it! I got 140 points out of 100😂
I first got into Japanese history because of the history of the minamoto clan and its tragic first shogun story. How the war hero Minamoto Yotshistne and legendary samurai was outlawed and killed by his brother she shogun yoritomo. The whole tale fascinated me to investigate into the samurai and japanese culture. The sengoku period is so strange and also interesting, it seems Japan's culture at the time was one of constant war, with daimyos and war lords all vying for power. And that is actually EPIC LOL! I want to visit Japan soon, but im only gonna interested in ancient temples and old castles and ofc the stories of the legends who once inhabited them. Thank you for watching and commenting! I appreciate you enjoyed the video!
lol.. congrats on getting 140/100!! A lot of us got interested into that period of Japanese history because of James Clavell's novel Shogun, written in 1975, on which two English language TV series have been made.
That's awesome bro. I had something similar happen to me in school about the Crusades and that was something I happen to read alot about when I was young( and still do)
Romance of the three kingdoms…… there needs to be a show or film made about this!!!!! Lu bu for main character, the villain / hero! Would be epic! Hope you enjoyed the video!
@@historyprofiles absolutely loved the video. And you're right. Lu Bu was a fascinating character in a time chalk full of fascinating characters. Guan Yu the God of War, The Little Conquerer Sun Ce, Cao Cao The Hero of Chaos, The Sleeping Dragon Zhuge Liang...
@@tomkeithley8598 so many amazing characters! I do need to re acquaint my self with the story, but ancient China was such a crazy time, they were so advanced in warfare and their weapons fighting styles etc compared to the rest of the world as well as their culture!
@@tomkeithley8598And some of the warriors during the three kingdoms period are some of the greatest to ever live. For example,Xiahou Dun has over 200 recorded kills.
@@safuwanfauzi5014oh, you have to know Hideyoshi was also a ursurper. Oda Hidenobu, was the son of Nobutada and the grandson of Nobunaga (both two were dead in Honnoji Incident) was basically used by Hideyoshi to gain total power when he was but a child. Im not surprised and feed sorry for Toyotomi much when they suffered the exact same fate from Tokugawa Ieyasu who took advantage of Hideyori as a child to create his shogunate and gain total power.
Hey, thanks for this. I've been watching this show and I absolutely loooooove it and I wanted to know the true history of it. Thank you so much for this video. 👍
The show is sooo damn good & gangsta as hell! Sucks that there's only gon be 1 season & it sucks even worse that they do that bs where they release a show per week smh! So I'm just waiting for all of the episodes to come out before I binge watch the whole season in 1 go lol
Just found you so thankful for all this information an wisdom of Japanese history I will follow you thankyou for all your research and your great presentation your story telling and respect does honor to him an Japan
Ieyasu to me is a competent general but a much better politician or diplomat who was able to convince many daimyo in the eastern part of japan to side with him. A man who is opportunistic in terms of using the circumstances surrounding him to gain the ultimate prize of becoming shogun and also a man who is adapatable in being able to bounce back from previous defeats to gaining even greater success in the future. I believe he was inspired by Imagawa Yoshimoto in terms of using diplomacy or politics in his lifetime since he was a hostage to the imagawa family for some time.
He was a competent general but not a genius tactician like Takeda Shingen or Oda Nobunaga, Ieyasu's strength is strategy and politics. The guy is a genius when it comes to playing the long game.
@@historyprofiles I did and thank you for showcasing them in the history of him. Most people just concentrate on the single figure without mentioning the people that helped them along the way
1543-1555 A.D. Matsudaira Takechiyo 1555-1557 A.D. Matsudaira Motonobu 1558-1563 A.D. Matsudaira Motoyasu 1563-1566 A.D. Matsudaira Ieyasu 1566-1616 A.D. Tokugawa Ieyasu Titles presented after his death Tousho Dai-gongen(Meaning: Incarnation of a great god who illuminates the east.)
Great story. Infighting and betrayal of trust have always been a part of human history, regardless of society. Passion, envy, desire, and submission. Love, haha.
I just finished watching the 3 videos recently posted that are of interest because of the Shogun 2024 series ( the older TV series was actually good too). Excellent history, well presented here, and very true telling of that was going on in Japan at this time to help understand the series better. Living in the Kyoto area, and the Shogun series a few weeks away from release, I’d just happen to visit the mountain top grave/shrine site of Hideyoshi with my wife. And, that reminded me of a book I would recommend for a historical (novel) background; “TAIKO’ by Eiji Yoshikawa.
Mine is Oda Nobunaga along with Sanada Yukimura and Saito Dosan, the reason why is because of course Nobunaga pave the way for unifying Japan, as for Yukimura well his nickname "The Crimson Demon Of War" explained it, i mean other than his famous wall of Sanadamaru and his feat of almost driving Ieyasu to death, last but not least, Saito Dosan "The Viper of Mino" man waited for 10 years to usurp the Toki clan, cunning and patience indeed
"A Hero who may appear once in a hundred years", "Crimson Demon of War" and "The Last Sengoku Hero" A man with that description definitely deserves a video to himself. Ill note it down for sure and read his life story thank you for the recommendation. Email me any additional information on him if you have any
Ieyasu's greatest qualities were his Patience and Opportunistic behaviour. He knew when to hold back and when to strike He waited during the times of Imagawa Yoshimoto, Oda Nobunaga and Hideyoshi and built up his strength. And once the time was right, he dealt the decisive blow
Took most of his life waiting for the right time to strike. Very intelligent and allowed his small clan to rise to prominence during an era of giants in feudal Japan
Tokugawa definitely outlasted and outsmarted his opponents,who were great strategists as well. A great example of playing the longest game, don't quote me on this. The Tokugawa Shōgunate was the last of the feudal era.
I've read the path of the assassin by Kazuo Koike many years ago, I still remember many of these facts. Recommended read for those that like feudal Japan imagery
Hey I was watching your Sigurd the crusader Viking. Then I watched the curse of Oak Island tonight. They are starting to put together a connection between the Templar Knights and Vikings. And they discussed the fact that a Viking did go to the crusades leave a bunch of ships like you said and man. This would have helped their Templar Knights take treasure to oak islands since The Vikings would have known also about the new world. My point is you really should get a hold of those guys on the curse of Oak Island you have information that would be helpful to them.
The Shogunate was inward looking and very conservative. It isolated Japan for two and a half centuries, maintained a very rigid and stratified social order, and turned the famed samurai class into clerks, and drunks dependent on the Shogun's government for their annual pittance. The warrior class became a shadow of what it had been, which is why the fictitious code of bushido arose. When Mathew Perry arrived in the middle of the 19th century, the inability of the Japanese government under the Shogun to expel him wrote the end of the Tokugawa hold on power. After the Meiji Restoration in 1868, following the violent overthrow of the Tokugawa regime, Japan transformed itself from a backward and feudal society into a world power capable of defeating the major European power in the east, Russia, and all that in just over 40 years. Bushido came again to Japan in Hirohito's reign, leading Japan to ruin, the last parting gift of the Tokugawa Shoguns to posterity.
One thing must history text tend to gloss over or write pretty brief is that Ieyasu actually seems to be a pretty good and brave warrior who personally fought in the battlefield in his younger years.
@@historyprofilesThank you for this video. Also the part about the Takeda demise always is heart breaking, as I really like the Takeda clan. Although their direct descendant still survive to this day, think one of them work as a Politic commentator in TV. Also Ieyasu did protected many Takeda clan retainers and even adopted Shingen grandchild who is blind
Japanese history is really interesting, but I find it hard to follow because I am unfamiliar with Japanese names. They're hard for me to remember and Japanese history always seems to involve a long list of characters. It's hard for me to keep track of who is who.
Once he entered Mikawa Province in February 1573, Shingen besieged Noda Castle, but then died in his siege camp. The exact circumstances surrounding his death are not known. Some accounts say he succumbed to an old war wound, some say a sniper had wounded him earlier, and others that he died of pneumonia. I simply said shot dead assumed he was shot and didn’t want to go into further detail, very good knowledge though
I hope you enjoyed! Check out my video on oda nobunaga the demon lord too, the first unifier of Japan! Video on toyotomi hideyoshi the taiko dropping soon!
I share your pain, I honestly spent hours trying to find some good royalties free Japanese music that wouldn’t get me a strike, alas I couldn’t find one on TH-cam, if you could share a beautiful royalty free Japanese musical piece that would be amazing. Again sorry for the inconvenience I hope you enjoyed other elements of the video
I looked for so long to try and find some good royalty free historic japanese music, however, I couldn't find one that fit this video. I do think this background music is beautiful and although chinese, matches with the story telling
I think the outcomes are slightly different however i'm not sure! Most o the video is his early life which the show doesn't cover! A lot of backstory lore here! ;)

Excellent narrative. Throughout human history in all cultures the same kind of back stabbing treachery and infighting can be found. Greed jealousy ambition and obedience. Lust lol.
"Shintaro!!!!!"........"Hi !!!???.........Shusaku!!!!!" In the 60's "The Samurai" was on television every week day afternoon here in Australia. No school boy worth his salt would miss it. Koga ninja 🥷 were constantly a problem. Everyone would make their own ninja stars. 🌟
I do have it Mildly and it was an oversight on my part. When I checked the video for errors there are just so many names that some mistakes slipped past the net. It’s really annoying as the real imagawa yoshimoto would be pissed with me. I was thinking of making an video in his honour as I was annoyed with this myself, anyway I’m sorry I hope you enjoyed other aspects of the video
Dawg you don’t understand the show at all. It’s a bait and switch. You’re led to think John is the secret weapon the entire time when the real weapon is mariko. John was just a distraction, Toranaga admits that at the end
The samurai are interesting and certainly deserve study. But besides unifying Japan and defending it a few times they accomplished nothing and never conquered anything. The allure is there for shows and movies etc but they were not empire builders For that there are dozens of other countries that deserve better attention: Carthage, Greece, Rome, ottomans, conquistadors etc
He was failed to win battles in China... If they haven't Yue Fei in the battle field, Zhao Zilong, and other most feared masters general... He will only end up losing his head then.
A very good study of Tokugawa Ieyasu was done by a Professor Shaw, an Australian, in 1937 entitled: Tokugawa Ieyasu, Maker of Modern Japan. Basically a Biography, covering all aspects of T.I. life. I am sure Clavell had read this book, and also library books in England on the British relations with 1500 and 1600 Japan.

the background music sounds like a Mongolian moriin khuur. Matches though nonetheless.
I looked for so long to try and find some good royalty free historic japanese music, however, I couldn't find one that fit this video. I do think this background music is beautiful and although chinese, matches with the story telling
You pronounced "Imagawa" incorrectly a few times in the second section.
My apologies, I hope you enjoyed the video
Damnit, could have provided a spoiler warning, the show just started 😂
I think the outcomes are slightly different however i'm not sure! Most o the video is his early life which the show doesn't cover! A lot of backstory lore here! ;)
Amazing cunning leader.
Indeed he was, had a very turbulent childhood as well, thank you for watching!
Yeah, the end says it all. He's the type of person you just wouldn't want to come across in ancient Japan.
The BGM is Chinese-style. Other than that, I like it.

Excellent narrative. Throughout human history in all cultures the same kind of back stabbing treachery and infighting can be found. Greed jealousy ambition and obedience. Lust lol.
indeed, power will turn humans corrupt and against each other quickly, no matter what the language or culture it, I hope you enjoyed the video!
Ofc Toranaga is based on Tokugawa
Halfway thru the video until I released this isn't about scorpion from mortal Kombat lol
He who eat the cake
"Shintaro!!!!!"........"Hi !!!???.........Shusaku!!!!!" In the 60's "The Samurai" was on television every week day afternoon here in Australia. No school boy worth his salt would miss it. Koga ninja 🥷 were constantly a problem. Everyone would make their own ninja stars. 🌟

Why did most leaders die in there 40’s and 50’s, very short lives.
Either from diseases or war.
What about the true story of the monkey devil?
Coming soon, nobunaga also needs a half hour video to himself
Ohayo goyzamas
Note this is bits
I think you might have dyslexia? Or maybe just trouble saying one persons name: several times I heard Imawaga, Yoshitomo
I do have it Mildly and it was an oversight on my part. When I checked the video for errors there are just so many names that some mistakes slipped past the net. It’s really annoying as the real imagawa yoshimoto would be pissed with me. I was thinking of making an video in his honour as I was annoyed with this myself, anyway I’m sorry I hope you enjoyed other aspects of the video
Is taiko oda nobunaga?
No, Taiko(太閤)is an honorific title of Toyotomi Hideyoshi.
Nobunaga in Shogun is Goroda, the man Mariko's father(Akechi Jinsai/Mitsuhide) betrayed

Got lost in the names, ugh
The only thing I don't like about him is the persecution of Christians which originated from Israel, not europe.
I hate that the Shogun series focuses so heavily on the Englishman.
No, i dont think that.
dumb
yeah , and John is the least interesting and ungrateful character on that show, it's a huge let down
you HATE it? That's a very strong word. Maybe you dislike it. Hate is a terrible and deep feeling that no human should be proud to show.
Dawg you don’t understand the show at all. It’s a bait and switch. You’re led to think John is the secret weapon the entire time when the real weapon is mariko. John was just a distraction, Toranaga admits that at the end

You totally mixed up.
The samurai are interesting and certainly deserve study. But besides unifying Japan and defending it a few times they accomplished nothing and never conquered anything.
The allure is there for shows and movies etc but they were not empire builders
For that there are dozens of other countries that deserve better attention: Carthage, Greece, Rome, ottomans, conquistadors etc
White people, right? After all, we haven't been paying them enough attention in history LMAO
Your reading is elementary my dear Waston.

I pretty much stopped watching when you pronounced Imagawa as "Imawaga" (6:49)
My bad corrected my self later in video, a lot of names to pronounce
No mention of YASUKE the Black Samurai.

Your wrong about a great many things

Who came here after playing genshin impact 😂
While this is an amazing video, you forgot to include that Ieyasu used a Cannon Spear as can be seen in the historically accurate, Samurai Warriors.
A lot was going on around the 1600 in the world. The fall is Ming and the rise of qing
He was failed to win battles in China... If they haven't Yue Fei in the battle field, Zhao Zilong, and other most feared masters general... He will only end up losing his head then.
A very good study of Tokugawa Ieyasu was done by a Professor Shaw, an Australian, in 1937 entitled:
Tokugawa Ieyasu, Maker of Modern Japan. Basically a Biography, covering all aspects of T.I. life.
I am sure Clavell had read this book, and also library books in England on the British relations with 1500 and 1600 Japan.

Thank you for the information! And thank you for watching!
