Can't wait for samurai clans that are still around, like the Date. How will you handle or manage to investigate their current status? Like if they're sportsmen, have companies of their own or subsist based on land that they still own?
@@DavidMyrmidon same, the first clan is the Oda clan, i really love the story about Nobunaga and how his rise to become the most powerful daimyo of the Sengoku Jidai

@@huanquocmanh416 they failed to adapt to guns because Shingen had no proper access to major ports and could not trade with Western merchants. Only an idiot would have charged against palisade and guns. If Shingen were alive Nobunaga wouldn't have breezed to unification
My Family the Ogasawara was said to come from the same ancestor as the Takeda, my line was in Minobu south of Kai before moving to Hawaii. I visited the family graveyard and there was both Takeda and Ogasawara buried there. I was told family was on both sides Toyotomi and Takeda, we lost Matsumoto Castle soon after Tokugawa came to power. Note the family mon is Matsu or Pine 3 diamonds
The unmovable mountains, The Takedas. My favorite clan. I always choose them for some reason in games set in Sengoku period. I think it all due to the Kurosawa movie "Kagemusha". I think Shingen Takeda himself is a Sinophile, as he was an expert in Chinese poetry and really loved reading Sun Tzu art of war, even his famous red oni looking helmet with the white hair was imported from rare Yak hair from the "Mainland". Funny how I got this info from the videogame Nioh as you can receive Shingens helmet in the game with the description where the white hair came from. I remember someone mentioned that the Takeda clan might have been destroyed, but their descendant still survived probably thanks to Tokugawa Ieyasu who protected majority of the Takedas. Think one of them now work as a Political commentator.
@Warren Shredder!! haha kinda ironic as historically they were destroyed by firearms. Another lost gem that is now abandonware and probably hard to find is "Takeda", think there are 3 series made of it by Magitech they had a pretty good theme song th-cam.com/video/UtZe3PtyO1A/w-d-xo.html
@Warren Shredder!! Haha to be honest, Nioh 2 seems like a disappointment the way they put the storyline wise. I would have preferred they focus on the Shimabara Rebellion with William Adam further adventure. Maybe William Adam have a longevity life and we see him living long life in Japan to see the Samurai culture end up to the Black Ships. Still credits to Nioh and Koei Tecmo, as they always research their history well. Alot of the samurai armor in the Nioh game are really based on the historical samurai armors to the point. For example Tachibana armor is exact like the historical one. Also they mention small tidbit info about the armor, Like Ieyasu changed into a small hat in his Osaka campaign due to old age. The only inaccurate portrayals are the weapons. Although majority of the sword do exist, including the 5 National Treasure of Japan swords.
Takeda is my favourite clan of Sengoku Jidai. I first learned about them through playing the original Samurai Warriors game and they've stuck with me ever since then. From the wise Shingen, to his generals like Masakage Yamagata, Masanobu Kosaka, to his brothers, Nobushige & Nobukado Takeda to his sons in Katsuyori and Yoshinobu. Takeda was an all around very interesting clan of Sengoku Jidai. Add their legendary cavalry and unique persona's their battles witht he Uesugi{Who are my second favourite clan of SJ} and their brief expansion before their initial downfall. They are a clan whose to be highly respected despite having their rough downfall, but at one point they came close to ruiling Japan and I know if they did conquer it back then, Japan would be a very different place than it is today. So in saying that, I'm glad *The Shogunate* is doing a video on them and shining some limelight in their history.
Thanks for making this my dude. This is one of my favorite Clans from the sengoku jidai period, so seeing an in depth video dedicated to them is awesome.
You read my mind!! This is one of things I had always wanted to ask you! Biographies of important people or clans, their history. This is brilliant! Keep it up Nick!
I'm so loving this channel! The work on here has just gotten better and better! And then I happen to come back to TH-cam after a couple days away only to see this video uploaded! And it is of one of my all time favourite clans! Thank you for this work, The Shogunate. I'm looking forward to the Shimazh and Date histories...!
Just wanted to take the time and say THANK YOU SO MUCH for making these videos and keeping them organized! Whoever is behind The Shogunate is doing Japan and the whole world a great service 🙏
Really excited for this new series! I think an episode on the Uesugi would be really interesting as I find the history of the clan during the late Muromachi and early Sengoku periods to be a really fascinating yet often overlooked topic. It also provides some more context for the later expansion of both the Nagao and Hojo clans.
Just stumbled upon your channel, you’re reigniting a lot of curiosity and awe I had of samurai and their ideals. I appreciate the work you do, keep it up 💪🏽
You should also talk about those clans that are still relevant today, such as the Honda, these connections are extremely interesting. Excited for the new series!
You deserve a lot more attention your content is good and you explain everything really good looking forward to more I came across this channel not to long ago
Ever since the release of Ghost of Tsushima, I keep coming back to your channel to learn more about the history of feudal japan and all the clans, particularly their emblem. Thanks Shogunate. I love the modern look even though it was made centuries ago. My favourites are the Takeda and Oda.
Another idea for a series, would be the history of the different prefectures. You could include clans, climate, geography, resources and industry, and what the region is known for. It'll give people a better idea of the differences in regions. Especially since Japan has quite a variety how different climates and geographic features.
"The lord is that mountain. Both in battle and at home, he is steadfast, like a mountain. When his army advances, first the horsemen attack, swift as the wind. Second, the lancers raise a forest of spears, advancing with silent resolve. Third, more horsemen engulf the enemy ranks, as mercilessly as fire. And the lord is always behind them, watching over them, immovable as a mountain. That is why our army, from general to foot soldier, can fight so resolutely... Immovable as a mountain. The lord is that mountain."
i got into your channel with your Sengoku Jidai videos and i was curious if you'll consider doing similar videos for earlier eras of japan. I for one would be EXTREMELY interested in such content from you! The kamakura and Muromachi periods are such that i know little about other than that the Onin war and the Mongol invasions occurred. Regardless i thank you sincerely for the amazing content youve given us. and a special nod to your Gekokujo review video for getting me into Mount and Blade. feels like a bit of a disgrace id never heard of/ played the game until recently and I've already put in 100 hours just this past month alone
I was hoping for a video about the Takeda clan. Even though they perished in the Sengoku Jidai, they're still my favorite clan. Thanks for making this video dude, you're awesome!
@@goodcomrade2949 Especially since the last lord of the clan committed seppuko, along with his wife and child. I felt so sorry for them for having that kind of end.
@@PhantomRaider100 Yes that one charge that killed it all. It also shows an honorble charge would work in fantasy but never in real life in real life only the smart can win
The takeda clan actually exists today still. Takeda Shingen’s fifth son, Nishina Morinobu’s sons survived the era and their family continued all the way till now. A branch of the family also survived in Kazusa. So ya, the Takeda are alive and well today, although they’re probably just living normal lives like the rest of society lol.
Hey there, love your channel :) I was curious if you could do a video on what Sumo was like in older times, anywhere between its beginnings in the 700s AD via the Sengoku Jidai or even the Tokugawa shogunate. Theres a fair number of videos on modern sumo, but not so much on medieval and early modern sumo
Can't wait to see more videos like this one, but I'm curious, would you do videos about minor clans too? My surname really is Saito, so you can imagine why I ask XD
13:50 "...injury or illness" According to the Buke Jiki (among other sources), Shingen had tuberculosis and suffered effects for several years. The Takeda army was actually assembled in Suruga and Shinano, and had just defeated the advance force of Ieyasu and prepared to march on Nagoya when Shingen suffered another attack, and died. The rumours about him being wounded were (at least according to local historians in Yamanashi) invented by Hideyoshi, to make it sound like he had been "defeated"
I really wish they made a taiga about the last few generations of the Takeda. Both Furin Kazan and the Shingen taiga end too early and don't show the decline. Poor Katsuyori is lucky when he gets a bit of screentime in Nobunaga-centric stuff.
There is a manga I can recommend which was drawn by Yokoyama Mitsuteru from his Three Kingdom fame called "Takeda Shingen" . It basically tell the whole Shingen life in a matter of fact.
Thank you very much for your efforts i wish to contenoue in this series and the sengoku jidai series the best Ever vedios i have Ever Seen and reed for the history of japan thank you again
The Tiger of Kai is my favourite historical figure of Japan. I was pretty hyped for Nioh 2 as the game might show Shingen as baddass as he is. Too bad he was showed as an oversized revenant :(
Takeda! You have answered my unspoken wishes Sir 😃❤ Any further Takeda videos in sight? Also, I have some spare cash to spend on support of a TH-cam historian, any idea where to go with it?
Ich bin Deutscher und finde die themen sehr interessanttt da ich die samurais sehr beindruckend finde mit ihrem mut ihrer ehre und nicht zu vergessen ihren legenderen schwert katana und so weiter mega mach weiter so
I was curious about Aki branch of Takeda clan. There is so little info about them and their history is confsing once Wakasa branch joined as well. Anyway still learned more info about them. Obviviously famous clans gonna have spotlight a little while but I'm looking forward to see Ouchi, Amago, Hosokawa, Yamana, Ashina, Asakura, Miyoshi histories.
My favourite clan! When I was a kid I loved the story of their success. When I first saw Akira Kurosawa's 'Kagemusha' I was in tears - I still curse when I hear Katsuyori's name, he was a fool at times.
I think Katsuyori gets too much flak he had a lot to live up to and not to mention that battle was less the ideal for him he was a capable general who had won victories he just had the pressure of living up to his father’s name and he needed a great win to secure loyalty it just sucked he went against Nobunaga.
@@alfredkingofwessex This is true, though in hindsight, looking at the situation it makes you wonder what was he thinking charging the Oda/Tokugawa firing lines as he did. It was such a one sided battle, and more to the point, such a waste of men for the Takeda.
@@PortbyhanMan true but the triple volley musket firing was a new concept that Katsuyori had never seen before the Takeda cavalry had run down muskets before he assumed it would be able to again Nobunaga changed the way wars where fought in Japan then Katsuyori was on the short end of the stick unfortunately.

Another great video of another great clan in the Takeda.
Great job! This helped me understand the backstory to the film Kagemusha.
Fun fact, the Takeda Clan maintained and popularized the art of Daito Ryu Akijujitsu, the father of Aikido and Hapkido.
