   Out of all Japanese historical figures, Oda Nobunaga is probably   
   the one with the widest range of interpretations. But what was   
   the real Nobunaga like, and why was he really betrayed and   
   murdered? While a lot of manga make their stories more interesting   
   by taking historical liberties, this one does the opposite, using   
   historical research to paint a clearer - yet more intriguing -   
   picture of the man behind the myth.   
   	   
   	Well this is another excellent historical manga with points   
   of departure in present time academia.  It brings up some   
   excellent point including at the present time a rehersal of   
   everything known about Akechi Mistuhide, who rebelled against   
   Nobunaga and started a rebellion that killed Oda and some   
   of his most valued relatives.  It darkens the glory of Hideyoshi   
   Toyatomi  as is common in such stories.   
      
   	The beginning at least of what should be a longer   
   story is now online. Worth the reading.
