The Shogunate | In Defense of Takeda Katsuyori @TheShogunate | Uploaded May 2022 | Updated October 2024, 3 hours ago.
Takeda Katsuyori is a figure that is often looked down upon due to his decision making at the battle of Nagashino. A significant defeat that would later lead to the clan's demise. But was he really a bad leader? In this video I make an argument in defense of one of Japan's most notorious figures.
