Episode Synopsis

Takeda Shingen was a powerful warlord during Japan's Sengoku period, known for his military brilliance and innovative tactics.
He is famous for his cavalry formation, known as the "Kakuyoku," which provided his forces with greater flexibility and adaptability on the battlefield.
Shingen's rivalry with other prominent figures like Oda Nobunaga and Tokugawa Ieyasu greatly influenced the political landscape of the 16th century, shaping the future unification of Japan.
In addition to his military achievements, Shingen expanded his clan's territory and controlled a key trade route, enhancing his wealth and power.
He was also a patron of the arts and an accomplished administrator, as demonstrated by the "Kōshū Hatto," a set of laws for his domain that promoted stability within his territories.
