Great video. Please do a video about Sanada Yukimura.

This has to be one of the more dramatic events of the Sengoku period. Akechi Mitsuhide had a big role in the Tokugawa Shogunate becoming established.

I just watched the entire video and I expected this to have way more views than it actually does! In my opinion the guy deserved to be "betrayed", if you can even call it that at that point.

Hope you guys enjoy this video!! Do you think Akechi Mitsuhide was a good guy or a bad guy?

Saitō Dōsan was defeated by his son Yoshitatsu, not by his son-in-law Oda Nobunaga, who he even considered a possible heir.
