History of the Sengoku period. Introducing the latest research on the mysterious "Honnoji Incident"! Recent research has overturned the common beliefs that have been told in historical dramas and novels. Mystery 1: Did Akechi Mitsuhide really hate Nobunaga? Mystery 2: Did he really declare, "The enemy is at Honnoji!"? Mystery 3: What is the true meaning of "It is beyond the scope of right and wrong"? We will analyze various historical materials such as the Nobunaga Koki, the records of Luis Frois, and the Gokeikyoki to get to the truth of the "Honnoji Incident". The Honnoji Incident was an incident that occurred in the early morning of June 2, 1582 (June 21, 1582), when Oda Nobunaga, who was staying at Honnoji Temple in Kyoto, was attacked by his vassal Akechi Mitsuhide in rebellion. Nobunaga was attacked while sleeping and realized that he was surrounded, so he set fire to the temple and committed suicide. Nobunaga's eldest son and head of the Oda clan, Nobutada, moved from his lodgings at Myokaku-ji Temple to Nijo Onshinzo to fight back, but he soon set the temple on fire and committed suicide. This resulted in the loss of a central figure in the Oda government, and it became an opportunity for Hashiba Hideyoshi, who defeated Mitsuhide at the Battle of Yamazaki on June 13, to establish the Toyotomi government.
