Nobunaga's eldest son, given the headship of the house and Gifu Castle at an early age as his successor. In the Takeda campaign he showed his quality as commander-in-chief, taking Takatō Castle and destroying the Takeda. On the morning of Honnō-ji he was at Myōkaku-ji in Kyoto; he moved to save his father but was too late, made a stand in the Nijō Palace against the great Akechi army and, hopelessly outnumbered, took his own life. The young head who should have carried the Oda into the future.
