Small addition. Kagetora was forced into monkhood at a young age. He wasn't really leading armies until Nagao retainers sought to put him in power. It's also why he is known for being a pious monk. Unlike other Daimyo who paid lip service to religious institutions, Kagetora was an actual practicioner.
Siege of Kawagoe is Okehazama or Miyajima before they are even a thing. The exagrated numbers of Uesugi and Ashigaka is even more than 80000. It is truly impressive victory and changed history like how Kagetora will became Kenshin.
Same reason why I love Kenshin as a Samurai Warlord. He never had any ambition compared to other lords like Nobunaga and Shingen. I think his ideal to rebuild his clan and their retainers is difficult and arguably naïve to maintain because so many other factors caused Uesugi to always be on the defensive both internally and externally. In reality he was very noble, but human nature definitely tested the Uesugi's resolve. I always imagine how history would have been if Uesugi took the the fight to Nobunaga after the battle of Tedorigawa. Just my take. :D
Wow, the tension mounts. I get goosebumps of excitement on how it all goes on. Just binging the Sengoku Jidai Chapter 1 playlist. Outstanding series of documentaries! Thank you Shogunate for your lovely work! A Shogun 2 Total War player, considering to start with the Uesugi for once
11:45 Takeda Shingen (The Tiger of Kai) vs. his greatest rival and also a friend Uesugi Kenshin (The Dragon of Echigo) 4 times at Kawanakajima, Nagano 😁👍
I'm playing Nobunaga's Ambition SOI, I'm thinking about putting my clan in the east and being a ally to the Hojo, I think I'll be able to get a piece of kanto during this time period
@@TheShogunateCan I ask where you get these numbers from? For example the Uesegi Ashikaga Army of 85,000 seems extremley high for the region and dwindling power of the three daimyos. Thanks and have a nice day
Hello! Who has drawn all the beautiful and colourful pictures of armed samurai in action? Are those from some historical armour illustration books? Thanks!
Some of them are from books and video games. Specifically the Samurai Warriors and Nobunaga's Ambition by Koei Techmo. Look up the Sphere of Influence addition in Nobunaga's Ambition for the majority of the portraits.
Apparently I have ancestors from Japan and one was a navy pilot and navigator William adams and others who were whalers from America and other pacific countries

This makes him abandoning his position and intending to go be a monk even more funny, he just wanted his chill life back.
@@tyrannicfool2503That’s not so sure. Maybe it was his plan to show how indispensable he is 🤷🏻♂️
Hojo have overpowered genes. 3 generations of great leaders. 😭
Well they are asura reincarnations after all
Hohenzollern: Hold my beer
Honestly Hojo Ujimasa was highly competent too, he just had too much pride to bend the knee to Toyotomi.
Hojo were fucking Spartans, bro. Going to battle a force 10x with no armor: Fucking legit
or just reckless
@@FlyingHands994 You are only reckless if you lose
I just love how throughout the Sengoku Jidai, the Ikko Ikki just constantly served as a ploy for everyone else
Amazing work. This type of video should be used on history classes!

This is my fave new channel!! Kenshin was always my fave Samurai! Honorable with high morals and ethics.

That rivalry is epic. I'm surprised there's no anime adaptation thus far. Or is there? 🤔
@@stanleysmith7551 There's a few but none completely focus on them. There are several movies dedicated to them though.
My new favorite channel🔥

Great content bro keep it up 👏👏
Cool playlist bro, I just wish the intro wasnt as long, it adds up when youre binge listening.
It's not that long
Keep up the great work 👍! When you get to it temporally make sure to talk about the Date clan.
Thank You! And of course! the Date will have a large role to play later in the series!

Bro, the music shouldn't be louder than your voice. It's great music, great history telling, just adjust the volume.
the three major clans of kanto region are op ngl.
Did Nagao Tamekage die in a fight against Ikko Iki movement?
IMO, Kenshin was the best military commander of his time
I love how everyone talks about shingen and kenshin even though realistically I think ujiyasu was a far greater commander and daimyo as a whole.
The time when being bald was an honor 😄
AI pic at 20s? .... all look like famous japanese actors :S
Those were artworks from nioh games I think
13:22 Don't need to see that kind of thing on the battle field though, super gay samurai couple lmfao
Noooo.
He was decapitating the other guy😭😭😭
