Happy D-Day, Nobunaga!

It’s June 21st, the anniversary of Oda Nobunaga’s death at Honnō-ji.

This is Nobunaga’s 442nd D-Day! Let’s party in the memory of our favorite Fool of Owari. Or, if he’s not your favorite, then just don’t party. Or maybe party anyway because Nobunaga was a pretty big deal. Up to you.

And there’s the full roster! Plus the older versions of Nobunaga and Mitsuhide. Fans had been wondering whether they would have older looks for the characters like Sanadamaru (Soul of Sanada) did, because one of the staff made mention of it during an interview after the initial teasers showing the young Nobunaga and Mitsuhide dropped. Now we have an answer.

I guess they would eventually have the age-up look for Ieyasu as well. I have to say the little child appearance is very odd to behold. It was already weird with Hanbei, it’s even more weird on Ieyasu.

This is not Nobunaga-relevant per se, but there’s been found documentation that domestically-produced grape wine exist in Japan prior to 1632. After the shogunate enacted a ban on Christianity, wine was considered a “Christian drink” and is no longer produced.

I was thinking that people have repeatedly debunked the idea that Nobunaga likes European wine. As with many other things, people these days tend to exaggerate just how much did Nobunaga “love” Western culture. Instead, it turns out that a number of the “first time to enjoy/appreciate so-and-so Western culture” turns out to be Hideyoshi.

Now, this is all based on the fact that missionaries regularly report back home the items that they gifted to the lords they met with. Apparently accounts of presenting Nobunaga with wine do not exist, but accounts of Hideyoshi being presented wine does. Instead, Luis Frois says “Nobunaga does not drink (wine/alcohol)”. The translation, however, isn’t clear whether he meant all alcohol (sake included) or he had just meant specifically European wine.

However, now that we know some form of domestic wine exist, we have another question: Is it possible that Nobunaga ever had a taste of domestic wine? The Higo domain account mentioned in the article doesn’t really say how long has grape wine been produced locally in Japan, after all.

I have to pretend to be one of the humans, a good citizen, and also because we can’t let anyone know of the dozens and dozens of bodies that are buried in your backyard.. and front yard… or about the ones in the basement. I need to keep a good image.”
