Here It Is


 Here it is, Fuji TV's Battle of Okehazama.  It is not that bad at all.  There is a lot of flashbacks regarding Nobunaga's youth.  For example, as a young boy engaged in war, sumo, and the like.  His relationship between Takechiyo (Tokugawa Ieyasu) when he was a hostage for the Oda for a brief time, and his relationship between Saito Dosan.  I was surprised on how much blood they used for a television movie, a plus.  That being said, I hated the blabbering during battle.  Fight and stop Fight and stop.  Too much Hollywood garbage.  If you ever watched Nobunaga King of Zipangu Taiga drama, the Battle of Okehazama was lifelike and a continuous flow of the battle.  Ebizo Ichikawa's role as Nobunaga was good.  He the job.  However, his armor did not fit the time of the battle.  The armor he wore looked liked he would wear during the 1570s.  I plan to watch it again so I can write a better opinion on the flick.  Overall, not bad and more importantly, I was entertained.


Tenka no tame!
