Nobunaga Concerto ( Japanese 信 長
content
The lazy high school student Saburō ( サ ブ ロ ー ) fell from what is today Japan to the Sengoku period in Owari . There he meets the young Oda Nobunaga , who has fled the palace. Since Nobunaga is weak and tired of life and demands in the palace, Saburō, who looks like him, should take his place. Before he knows what is happening to him, Nobunaga's servants have found him and Nobunaga has fled. Now Saburō takes the place as prince and first has to find his way into his new surroundings, causing a lot of confusion. He knows little about the palace and does not recognize his wife Kicho . He makes unusual decisions and is initially considered crazy by many. But he soon resolves to fill the place of Oda Nobunagas and to unite Japan so as not to change the course of history.
Due to his strange behavior, he initially frightens his surroundings. So his servant wants to kill him for his foolish actions, but is convinced by Saburō's determination to serve him faithfully. Nobunaga's teacher also realizes after a while that Saburō is not crazy, but just sees things differently. He can still confirm Saburō in his decision to unite Japan before he dies in an assassination attempt. Soon after, Saburō travels to see Kichō's father Saitō Dōsan , who is notorious for his severity and ruthlessness. But Saburō learns that he is also a Japanese from the future: a policeman who has lived in this time for a long time. Both are immediately close and Saitō Dōsan supports Saburō so that he can at least return to his time. But soon he dies in a riot led by his son.
