The Ambition of Oda Nobuna (2012)
S01E06 Sunomata One-Night Castle
Episode Overview
Nobuna intends to construct a castle at Sunomata, close to the Nagara River, to aid in her conquest of Mino. Although Yoshiharu is eager to take charge of the project, Nobuna assigns it to her other generals to avoid showing favoritism. However, the construction is thwarted by Yoshitatsu’s troops, prompting Nobuna to reluctantly hand the responsibility to Yoshiharu. While Nobuna and Katsuie lead most of the Oda forces to Kisogawa to distract Yoshitatsu, Yoshiharu, Hanb?, Mitsuhide, Goemon, and Inuchiyo work overnight to build the castle. Meanwhile, Inaba and Ujiie, Yoshitatsu's generals, begin to doubt his leadership. Yoshitatsu plots to eliminate Nobuna's forces by luring them into a valley and trapping them with fire. To his dismay, he discovers the Sunomata castle completed by morning and swiftly mobilizes his army to destroy it
