Shoga Drama: Oda Nobunaga (2017)

What appears before them is the set of a television period drama series titled “Oda Nobunaga.” Outraged by the way he is being portrayed, the hot-tempered Nobunaga declares, “This is not what I was really like!” and proceeds to rewrite the script himself. The result is a series that features none of the grand historical highlights people expect—no Battle of Okehazama, no famous arquebus formations—just a collection of obscure, quirky, and surprisingly humorous episodes from his life. Far from being a sweeping historical epic, it becomes a tiny-scale “Shoga Drama” (“small-river drama”), a playful twist on the term Taiga Drama. Now, under the direction of the real Oda Nobunaga himself, filming begins on a historical drama that is ridiculous, entertaining, and yet entirely based on historical fact.
