Sengoku Komachi Kuroutan - Ch. 98 - True Intent

[seagull123]

Yo, I know nothing about history, but if Azai-Asakura falls, which other clans are a credible threat to Oda? Cause Takeda is cooked, the warrior monks are on the retreat, Uesegi became a vassal so who's left?

Hojo, Mori, Shimazu, Miyoshi

I want to ask, why was Shizuko glad that Hashiba/Hideyoshi were order to attack Odani?

Might be a translation quirk, but I interpreted her words as "Oh, it's good that you're here. I've got a letter for you."

 

[Panino]

If I understood right Shizuko made the decision to explain the situation only to Akechi to help him. But at the same time it seems that instead of killing Nobunaga Akechi will try to kill Shizuko's instead?

And Shizuko also have something she wants Hashiba (Hideyoshi) to do?

Ch.75. Shizuko was teaching anatomy to a wife (12yo, maybe even younger) of a cunnisseur. uoh 😭

WE BORN IN A WRONG ERA 😭😭😭🙏🙏🙏

It's because in the real history Hideyoshi is the one who lay siege on Odani castle and capture it, that's why Shizuko is glad it stay true to real history. In the manga its Shizuko who lay siege on Odani Castle but because she leave her post to help Nobunaga and Mitsuhide, the 4 generals who got slapped is tasked to replace Shizuko on capturing Odani Castle with Hideyoshi capturing it in the real history.
I recommend another reading about this event in Nobunaga Kyousoukyoku Volume 9 Chapter 45-50

That would be the Mori clan to the west. They're the largest clan occupying the Chugoku region and the Honshu islands. They were the last enemies Nobunaga ordered his vassals to subjugate before his death at Honnoji. Other clans i can mention: the Shimazu but their daughter married one of the reincarnators so they might be friendly. There's also the Chosokabe south of the Mori but they have a relation with Mitsuhide by family/marriage. There's the Hojo to the east but the impenetrable fortress is the only claim to fame they have. There's also the Date to the North but Masamune would only be a teenager at this stage.

My prediction is that Akechi will also try to kill Nobunaga, not just Shizuko, because he thinks she has corrupted him. And they both time travel to modern times. That way, the author won't have to explain what happens if Nobunaga never died at Honnō-ji. Of course, Nobunaga being Nobunaga won't be satisfied and succeeds at becoming the Prime Minister, and somehow gets Shizuko to become the 2nd in command, which is Chief Cabinet Secretary if Google is correct.

Miyoshi trio is still there btw. I think next opponent is miyoshi and chosokabe

Personally I still think it's awkward the 4 generals didn't go with the plan. Nobunaga's been on a roll with victories and you'd think they'd trust his abilities more and just assume he knows cause he has some spies or something. I'm not saying they'd all follow without extra information but you'd think at least one of em would go in with Mitsuhide.

The manga narrative is truncated compared to the web novel. Akechi was portrayed as the most open-minded and flexible of Nobunaga's generals. He's readily receptive of Shizuko's help and advice, and often sought her before embarking on operations. He is direct and goal-oriented but stoic, personally distant and aloof. Whereas Hashiba was portrayed as flashy, gregarious, and clever but prideful, ambitious and somewhat insecure glory-hound, accepting help only after suffering setbacks or experiencing difficulties. The rest were either too rigid or unimaginative that Nobunaga or Shizuko had to spell it out for them.

My guess for the longest time is...Nobunaga is Shizuko's grandfather.

I'd be sad if that was the conclusion, but understandable. My selfish wish is just to ride this out for 10 years as Oda and Shizuko unite all of Japan haha
