In Ueno Province, Nitta Yoshisada, who was a comrade of Takauji Ashikaga, was feeling lost. He had no idea about the situation in Kyoto.
?
It is the pinnacle among those born in the Nitta household.
Since I was born in the Nitta family, no one listens to me.
I lost.
This guy can block Sadamune’s arrows with a sword…
Perhaps because he is an ancestor of Ieyasu, he was relatively elevated since the Edo period.
>>4It’s not an ancestor of Ieyasu…
>>6I was told it’s not okay to try.
How about the way you die?
The way I left was dramatic, but isn’t that a bit too much?
>>7It’s already pointless since I was robbed by Katowaka.
I’m such a fool that I can’t even judge properly, and I ended up dying with my sword broken at the last moment…
>>7In this era, as long as you keep the family’s bloodline, everything else will somehow work out.
?
There is strength.
There is also charisma.
No intelligence.
It was Yoshishige who stole the sword…
>>12They just swapped it; they didn’t steal it.
Given that it’s Nitta, it did pretty well considering they have no say in the matter.
The family status and the individual’s ability are not in harmony.
Since death is certain, rather if the sword is good… there might even be a follow-up.
In history class, they are celebrated as heroes for overthrowing the Kamakura shogunate, but they died carelessly in a situation unrelated to the historical event? That’s what I thought.
>>15Ashikaga is really cold-blooded, isn’t he?
That already means cutting it off bluntly and picking up something else.
Nitta Yoshisada aimed to establish the Hokuriku dynasty while being angry.
>>16It would be impossible in a place like that countryside…
>>22There are no other options; even if I bow my head to Ashikaga now, it won’t be acceptable for appearances’ sake.
I had no choice but to try, but it didn’t work out, so I died.
>>29There should have been a bit more space; it’s not a place like Echizen where country folks seem unlikely to acquire land or money.
>>32That is just ignorance.
>>22Echizen was a large country with a high rice yield at that time.
>>31It was a good location at a reasonable distance from Kyoto, wasn’t it?
If we wanted to, we could have created a third dynasty, not just a northern and southern court.
So I was seriously attacked.
If it was a prestigious family, they would have been more active.
Aren’t Ashikaga and Nitta on bad terms?
I powered through and died carelessly.
>>20It is the everyday scenery of history.
>>21It’s much better than suddenly dying without having accomplished anything…
There are people who have made a living by painting their descendants.
The descendants will eventually be able to live by selling used straw sandals, so this becomes a tremendously comic-like divine power.
The descendants did not lend the family tree to Ieyasu, and as a result…
>>26You’re great, aren’t you?
>>26Iwamatsu claims to be a descendant.
Originally, they are descendants of the first daughter of the Nitta family, but after the Taiheiki became famous, they started claiming that they were actually a child of Yoshisada who was adopted by the Iwamatsu family!
>>37Still, wasn’t he formally recognized as the successor by the Muromachi shogunate?
That’s why Ieyasu probably made a request too.
>>42It was simply acknowledged that now the Iwamatsu family will take over as the legitimate line of the Nitta family because the Yoshisada line has disappeared; it does not mean that they recognized themselves as descendants of Yoshisada.
The story that Ieyasu tried to borrow a family tree was something the Iwamatsu family brought up after the Meiji era.
>>44It should have existed in the Edo period.
Whether true or false
It was terrible that I was already checkmated when I got on the horse with Gōda.
Isn’t it terrible that the script is so disjointed that theories about Nitta Yoshisada being an idiot or Ashikaga Takauji having schizophrenia have become one of many interpretations?
>>33That’s why it hasn’t been chosen much as a subject for creative works until now.
The thread image is basic? But I like that it occasionally says sharp things.
Nitta is suspicious, but since the time he was designated as an enemy of the state, my family has been proudly claiming to be descendants of Kusunoki Masashige! Kusunoki Masatora of the Kusunoki clan would say… if someone like you says it, then it must be true.
Ultimately, it’s too hardcore to go as far as to lift the designation of enemy of the state from Masashige Kusunoki and rename him to Masataka Kusunoki.
This person’s shrine was right next to the company.
I don’t know what this person did.
It gives the impression of someone who’s bad at timing.
If anything, the whole family feels that way.
They were treated as rivals to the Ashikaga, being from the same Seiwa Genji line! However, recently they are often regarded with a drop in status, as if to say, “Wasn’t the Nitta in the late Kamakura period a subordinate of the Ashikaga?”
Iwamatsu’s house has not been told that it’s okay to use a single circle with the Nitta clan’s emblem as a flag.
Huh? It wasn’t Nitta Yoshisada who captured Kamakura.
It’s the allied forces of Ashikaga Senjuō and Nitta Yoshisada, right?
Calling someone a traitor is unreasonable, you know, Yoshimitsu-chan.
