Honda Masanobu is presented to us in the Shogun TV show as Kashigi Yabushige. Masanobu existed in the tumultuous era of the Sengoku period, marked by fierce Samurai Lords competing for supremacy, each aspiring to claim the coveted title of Shogun amidst a backdrop of extreme violence and upheaval.

In the midst of the chaos and devastation, Honda Masanobu, a relatively insignificant daimyo, forged an alliance with Tokugawa Ieyasu and would become one of his closest friends and retainers with the two communicating in code in many meetings to secretly communicate without others knowing. Yet, their relationship wasn't always amicable with the two even going to war against one another at one point. The Sengoku period was a time of warlords engaging in intricate mental warfare, involving schemes, betrayals, alliances, and enemy eliminations. It was a brutal contest of psychological manipulation and conflict. Amidst this turmoil, Masanobu emerged as a prominent figure, ascending to one of the highest echelons of power in Japan. This is story.
