Who is Ban Naoko? Ban Naoko was the younger sister of Nobunaga's retainer Ban Naomasa (?-1576). Naomasa's wife was Shibata Katsuie's daughter. Now back to Naoko. She became one of Nobunaga's beautiful concubine and gave birth to a son Nobumasa in 1554. Nobumasa (1554-1647) was born at Nagoya Castle and had his genpuku in 1566. This is important since Nobumasa was born three years before Nobutada. It is also safe to assume that Nobumasa was an illegitimate child.
Nobunaga no tame!
