The Imagawa army's vanguard,
lead by Matsudaira Moteyasu,
has surrounded Marune Fortress with a force of 3,000 men.
The other fortresses are under attack as well,
and the total enemy force is believed to exceed 25,000 men.
So they did come when we were gone.
It's finally started.
The biggest event of Lord Nobunaga's Ambition...
Oda's finished.
"Owari" means "finished" in Japanese anyway.
That joke only gets five points, Princess.
We need to counter-attack.
It's impossible.
We've only got a force of 3,000...
Give up and it's game over.
Nobuna, you can win.
No.
You're the only one who can defeat Imagawa Yoshimoto.
Are you sure?
Is the Oda clan going to survive?
Yeah.
The plan is...
No need to say it.
Monkey.
You're fired.

Episode Four
Winds of Change! Okehazama!
Why?
Because you acted without my permission.
You ignored my orders and went ahead on your own.
Of course you're fired.
But I...
You left without a word to me.
That's too selfish.
I don't want to hear another word from you.
Nobuna...
Don't do anything else that you don't need to.
Yoshiharu-dono was concerned about you.
And he didn't need to be!
But the monkey has the power to see the future!
He may know how to win...
If we hadn't rushed here, everyone would've died.
Or did you go knowing you would die?
Wait a second!
Sure, this wasn't in the game, so I was in trouble, but...
You said you'd make my dream come true,
but those were just words!
I hate liars like you!
Asahina Yasutomo and Matsudaira Motoyasu are both attacking Marune and Washizu with forces of 3,000.
Oodaka Castle is under attack by Udono Nagateru.
Narumi Castle by Okabe Motonobu.
They're attacking on all fronts.
It won't be long before they attack Kiyosu.
Where's Nobuna-sama?
After returning from Nagara River,
she went into her room and won't come out.
And with Owari in grave danger!
If only Nobuhide-sama were still alive...
Nobuna's right.
I'm all talk.
I can't do anything by myself.
And because of that, I got the Kawanamishuu killed.
I'm scum.
But...
...you also saved others.
Old man...
A splendid city.
Only Oda Nobuna could create and defend such a place.
Can we really defeat the Imagawa?
It's a super famous event in history.
It's only after winning this battle that Oda truly becomes a conqueror.
Is that the future you know?
Yes.
But in that future, I'm dead, am I not?
W-Well...
You changed the future to save Nobuna's suffering.
How can you be certain that the future where she wins is still possible?
Nobuna is a genius.
She's likely realised this and decided not to take you to a battle she has no hope of winning.
Why?
You said it yourself.
The people she loves die.
You know what she's like.
The only way she could show how she felt was by firing you.
Forgive her.
That fool...
I loved historical simulation games of this period.
I always loved this era.
I was so happy the history I learned in the games could help everyone.
And maybe that made me change the future.
But...
...because I knew that history, I was able to save you, Saitou Dousan.
I can save Nobuna, too.
Child, go do the job that only you can do.
History is on my side.
I will go as well.
We stand with Sagara.
We will follow you into hell itself.
Thanks, everyone.
We've got another tough mission.
So where do we go?
Okehazama.
According to what I learned from my game,
Imagawa Yoshimoto should be resting there.
We can't launch an attack on our own.
We just need to find the location of her camp.
Nobuna will do the rest.
What if she doesn't believe your report?
She will.
You'll owe the boss big if we win.
Yeah.
But, kid, if you touch our eternal idol,
Boss Goemon, we'll kill you.
The boss will never...
...be tainted!
Guys...
I've burned all their provisions and gunpowder.
Okay!
Let's all go kick 'em around then!
That is Okehazama Mountain!
Mountain?
Okehazama is a mountain.
So the game and reality are different?
Oda never attacked a mountain in the TV shows either!
Did changing the future turn Okehazama into a mountain?
Did I take the wrong choice at the route split,
and now I'm stuck at a bad end?!
Save me, Goemon!
Stay calm!
Get off me!
Kill!
There's never a dull moment with you, Monkey.
Nobukatsu...
No... Nobusumi?
I lose.
I have completely lost this one.
What's got you down?
Shut up.
And what are you doing here anyway?
Let me help, too.
I want to help my sister.
Too bad.
My plan's over.
If Okehazama's a mountain, we can't launch a sneak attack on it.
Um, there's a flat part of Okehazama, not just the mountain.
Once Matsudaira's taken Marune,
they can take the lead to Kiyosu.
But our force has suffered heavy casualties.
Liar.
Motoyasu-san's a crafty one. She'd never fight like that.
Matsudaira's force is to proceed onwards.
Got it?
Indeed.
The Mikawa country samurai can be the ones to take all the damage.
We will enter the capital elegantly and unscathed.
That is how a noble fights.
That's it.
Yoshimoto's camp.
This place doesn't have a name,
but we locals call it Okehazama.
Then it's decided.
A sneak attack here and Oda wins just like in the game.
Nobusumi, you stall them.
Stall them?
This is the only place a sneak attack will work.
Use the girls to serve sake to their army and buy time.
Leave that to me.
I'll seduce Yoshimoto.
Nobusumi-sama, you cheater!
Take care of us after the job's done, too, okay?
Of course.
As much as it pisses me off, I'm counting on you.
We can't stay holed up in our castle!
Yoshimoto's first priority is to make it to the capital.
If we don't attack her, she may very well ignore Kiyosu.
If we don't fight, we'll be destroyed.
Two points.
Your retainers are divided in their opinions.
Without you, no decision will be reached.
Please...
Where's Monkey?
Nowhere to be found in the castle.
I see.
Even a dog doesn't forget a favour it's received,
but I guess a monkey does.
But this is for the best.
Hurry!
We need to hurry and tell Nobuna!
Imagawa ninjas?
So you found Yoshimoto's camp.
Impressive.
A ninja! A real ninja!
Hey, I'm a real ninja, too!
Sagara, I'll hold them off.
Hurry and get to the princess!
You dummy!
I can't leave you here and run!
You're the dummy.
Somebody must tell Nobuna the location of their camp.
B-But...
Go do the job that only you can do.
Don't worry, kid.
Leave them to us.
Guys...
Stay alive!
Damn it!
Excellent dodge.
I, Hattori Hanzou, never let my prey escape.
Hattori Hanzou... Motoyasu's ninja?
Nobody has ever seen me and lived.
Then I'll pretend I didn't see you.
Is this the end?
I'm sorry, Nobuna.
You're all talk.
Did you forget your promise with me?
I can't make everyone else fight,
and then give up myself!
I commend your fighting spirit.
But it's useless.
Give it up.
I can't beat him in a straight up fight.
But I've got another way...
Imagawa Yoshimoto is never going to let Motoyasu have Mikawa.
One of these days, she'll sacrifice Motoyasu for her own ambitions.
If Motoyasu wants to split off, this is her only chance.
So you would have my lord rebel?
She doesn't need to.
Nobuna will defeat Imagawa.
That fool Oda could never defeat Imagawa.
She can!
The battle of Okehazama will end with an Oda victory.
So you're Monkey?
You know me?
If Oda attacks Mikawa after her victory, then we gain nothing.
Nobuna will form an alliance with Motoyasu.
I'll make her.
Try it then.
But if you don't keep your promise,
someday I will come to kill you.
I'll make it back to Nobuna.
That is...
...my Okehazama.
Washizu and Marune have both fallen.
Our forces have been wiped out.
Both have fallen?
Surrender!
We must surrender!
And hand the princess over to the enemy?
No retainer should ever speak those words.
Zero points.
Stupid girl.
And you're a man who's whining like a girl!
Monkey!
Why are you...?
Blood?
What happened to you?!
It doesn't matter.
I've found Imagawa Yoshimoto's camp.
The eastern base of Okehazama Mountain.
A force of approximately 5,000.
They're resting and completely cut off from the rest of their forces.
Nobusumi's group is stalling them.
This is all I can do.
What kind of future do you see?
It's your path to follow, Nobuna.
You choose what to do.
I'll shut up and follow you.
I see.
Twenty years to a man...
...are but a single day as seen from heaven.
Is there anyone born who does not someday die?
The Atsumori dance.
You're ready, Nobuna.
We will attack the Imagawa camp with all our forces!
Since we're here at Atsuta Shrine,
why not offer a prayer to the gods for victory?
Yeah.
How long are you gonna leave this country a mess?
From now on, I'll take over for you and protect the people.
Got it?
If you've got it, then make sure I win.
We clear?
The god sitting in the back of the shrine...
...tells me we're gonna win for sure.
Looks like the gods are pissed.
This is divine providence.
The rain will provide cover as we attack!
The enemy's at Okehazama!
Look at this rain.
I can't even play with my ball.
Huh?
Where did Nobusumi-chan and his friends go?
We haven't seen them for a while.
Our only target is Imagawa Yoshimoto.
All forces, advance!
W-What's going on?!
Enemy attack!
All forces intercept!
It's no good!
They're all drunk, and we can't fight in this rain!
Out of the way!
What about their camp?
Katsuie-dono is on her way.
Someone, protect me!
E-Everyone?
Where have you gone?
Imagawa Yoshimoto, prepare to die!
How dare you?!
This is the way of the world.
Your life is mine!
I don't want to die!
Wait, Katsuie.
Don't kill her!
It's a waste!
If we kill a hot girl like that,
Stop... stop...
I'll regret it the rest of my life.
Don't kill her.
Please!
I won't kill her...
I won't kill her, so stop fondling my breasts!
Glad you understand.
I've been tainted.
W-Who are you?
Nobuna's retainer. Sagara Yoshiharu.
Imagawa Yoshimoto,
the war is over.
Surrender.
I-I can't surrender...
It's a total waste for a cute girl like you to die here.
F-Fine.
I'll let you off easy, just this time, so you don't look bad.
Thanks. I mean it.
With Yoshimoto's surrender, her forces scattered,
and the Imagawa clan, known as the strongest in the east, fell from power.
It's thanks to you.
Yeah?
Then I need to receive a reward.
Sure.
I heard from Katsuie.
That you tainted her by grabbing her breasts.
No, that's a misunderstanding.
And you let Yoshimoto off because she was cute!
That's also a misunderstanding.
Princess, a victory cheer.
I know.
Let's go!
Hip-hip-hooray!
