She is a fictional character who leads a troupe of travelling entertainers. Thanks to it, she has connections with the influential persons in various areas. Koma was once a member of the troupe so she knows her well. Before the Battle of Nagaragawa, she is told to let SAITŌ Dōsan escape to Echizen (eastern part of present Fukui) by Kichō but Dōsan refuses it. Then she takes Mitsuhide and his family to the same place after the fall of Akechi Castle.
FUJITA Dengo (Satoshi Tokushige)
A samurai who served Mitsuhide and one of the few vassals who was told about the attack on ODA nobunaga before the Honnoji Incident. However, he committed suicide during the battle against HASHIBA Hideyoshi. His another name is Yukimasa.
ASAKURA Yoshikage (Yūsuke Santamaria)
A lord of Echizen and uses Mitsuhide to contact with Muromachi Bakufu in the series. The Asakura clan ruled the province for many years. He opposed ODA Nobunaga and won Asai (Azai) Nagamasa, a brother-in-law of Nobunaga over to his side but killed himself after the betrayal of his cousin Kageakira (*). He is said to have preferred art to battle maybe because of the deaths of his family members and the estrangement by his vassals.
(*) It is said that the skulls of him and Nagamasa were lacquered and gilded under the orders of Nobunaga. Then he compelled his vassals to drink sake from them but some say it's groundless. In "Komyō ga Tsuji", such behaviour of Nobunaga is blamed by his sister O-Ichi.
