Are the eyebrows Nobunaga's defining trait?

Thanks for another chapter.

So... Nobutada was the one dying at Nijō Castle during the Honnō-ji Incident. And this here is Nobukatsu. What I can recall about him is that he's the one Hideyoshi supported, while Katsuie supported Nobutaka.

If this manga does go that far, I suppose Ken will eventually become Nobukatsu's chef too, all the way to Komaki-Nagakute.

Akiyama's death is much more honorable and peaceful (for the lack of a better word...) in this manga than real life events.

In 1575, Katsuyori lost the Battle of Nagashino, a disaster for the Takeda clan which left Nobutomo at Iwamura Castle without support. Under repeated siege by Oda Nobutada, the forces under Nobutomo managed to hold the castle until November when Nobunaga swept in with the main army. Nobutomo signed a truce to surrender the castle after realizing that he had no chance to hold out any longer. Unfortunately, Nobunaga broke the truce and ordered Nobutomo, his wife (Nobunaga's aunt), and the troops of the castle garrison to be executed.

On December 28, 1575, Nobutomo and his wife, the Lady Otsuya, were crucified upside down along with his elder retainers Oshima Nagatoshi and Zakouji Sadafusa on the banks of the Nagara River.

I don't know how accurate this wiki is. But assuming that's true, then the events in the story, whether due to Ken's actions or not, have already differed with what happened in real life.
