 Kagemusha - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The shadowed warlord of the story is based on Daimyo Takeda Shingen and the climactic fight on the Battle of Nagashino which took place in 1573 (source: [1]).
The film was released in 1980 and is generally considered a great costume reincarnation of feudal Japan with its endless warlordism as well as the story of a man with a divided personality, or more generally that of an actor who falls too deep into his role.
Nobukado presents the thief to the generals and contrives a plan to have the kagemusha impersonate Shingen full-time.

 Battle of Nagashino - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Ironically, while Takeda's cavalry charge represents the old, traditional, means of warfare, it was invented by his father, Takeda Shingen, less than a generation earlier.
Takeda's cavalry was feared by both the Oda and Tokugawa, who had suffered a defeat at the Battle of Mikata ga Hara.
In the film, a wayward thief is recruited to impersonate the dead Takeda Shingen in the years preceding Takeda Katsuyori's defeat at Nagashino.

The Takeda of Aki Province were related to the Takeda of Kai and were powerful in that province from the late 12th century until their downfall at the hands of Môri Motonari between 1516 and 1523.
Nobukado was at any rate usually to be found within the Takeda headquarters when he went on campaign with his elder brother and nephew.
Yoshinobu was the eldest son of Takeda Shingen and therefore a grandson of court noble Sanjô Kinyori.

 Kagemusha (1980)
Takeda Shingen, the Lord of Kai, is among their most formidable enemies.
In early 1575 his son Katsuyori leads the Takeda army against Nobunaga's forces and is wiped out, his traditional battle formation of cavalry and foot-soldiers unable to withstand the obliterating firepower of Nobunaga's solders armed with muskets and barricaded behind stockades that horses cannot jump over.
The kagemusha ruse is out, Katsuyori rushes to assume the command of the Takeda clan that he had so long lusted after, the retainers resign themselves to having to follow his rash judgment.

The castle had been under siege from Takeda Katsuyori; Okudaira Sadamasa, a vassal of Tokugawa Ieyasu, commanded the defending force.
Oda and Tokugawa positioned their men across the plain from the castle, behind the Rengogawa, a small stream whose steep banks would slow down the cavalry charges for which the Takeda clan was famous.
The short distance, great power of the Takeda cavalry charge, and the heavy rain, which Takeda assumed would render the matchlock guns useless, encouraged him to order the charge.

Shingen Takeda is known as The Tiger of Kai and was a major warlord during the Sengoku-Jidai period.
After Yoshimoto Imagawa (a close ally of the Takeda was defeated) Shingen made a clever move against the weak Imagawa.
However Shingen Takeda died soon after and his son Katsuyori would bring the clan to ruin by trying (unsuccessfully) to fulfill the ambition of his father by further pressing onto Tokugawa lands.

The Takeda clan is to remain in its homeland and guard their domain rather than venturing forth on military offensives.
The Takeda warriors fight just as ferociously and die just as courageously to protect a figurehead who is an impostor as one who was born into his position.

 Pure Film――The Shadow Warrior
His right hand man, brother Nobukado Takeda (Tsutomu Yamazaki), is right where you'd expect him to be, while an unnamed thief is foregrounded because he doesn't belong (and perhaps because the same actor also plays Shingen).
The screen is basically split into two diagonals with hundreds of troops decked out in their armor raising their lances and shouting in the bottom left while "Shingen," almost acting as a composer, and his generals ride by the front line in the top right.
The Takeda clan was famous for their strong cavalry, but the Nobunaga clan had 3000 guns.

The Takeda clan of Kai was politically no more after the famous battle of Nagashino (click here for movie scenes or here for the real thing).
Yet, fightings between the Takedas and Tokugawas were still extant and both sides became engrossed in mutual raiding expeditions to and fro betwen Mikawa and Kai.

 Kagemusha (1980 || Japan)   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-12)
Kagemusha (shadow warrior in Japanese) is the story of a thief who is to be hanged, but is saved by a warlord's brother, Nobukado Takeda, because of a peculiar resemblance to the king Shingen Takeda.
Katsuyori was passed over as king and that position was granted to Shingen's grandson and Katsuyori 's son Takemaru as soon as he reaches of mature age.
Later in the film, we realize that Shingen did this because Nobukado is too aggressive and is not leader material, not to spite him.

 Movie
Set in the late-16th century, Kagemusha centres on the Takeda clan, one of three warlord clans battling for control of Japan at the end of the feudal period.
When their leader Lord Shingen (Tatsuya Nakadai) is mortally wounded in battle, he orders that his death be kept secret and that his "kagemusha"--or "shadow warrior"--take his place for a period of three years to prevent clan disruption and enemy takeover.
The identical double is a petty thief (also played by Nakadai) spared from execution due to his uncanny resemblance to Lord Shingen--but his true identity cannot prevent the tides of fate from rising over the Takeda clan in a climactic scene of battlefield devastation.

 Kagemusha at benhourigan.com: musings and reviews
It draws on the uncertainty surrounding the death of the historical Takeda Shingen, one of the great warlords of the period shortly before the unification of Japan and the beginning of the Edo period (1603-1867).
The criminal looks exactly like Shingen, and when Shingen dies, he is given the task of appearing in his place to keep up the clan’s morale and to intimidate rival warlords Oda Nobunaga and Tokugawa Ieyasu, who regard Shingen as a fearsome general.
The ere, the conduct of Shingen’s son, Takeda Katusyori, is appalling: he sends hundreds of his warriors to die in charges at an impenetrable barricade through which arquebusiers mow them down with gunfire.

After his elder brother Takeda Yoshinobu died, Katsuyori's son Nobukatsu became heir to the Takeda clan, making Katsuyori de facto ruler of the Takeda clan.
His forces were destroyed by the combined armies of Oda Nobunaga and Tokugawa Ieyasu at Temmokuzan in 1582, after which Katsuyori and his son Nobukatsu committed suicide.

 dOc DVD Review: Kagemusha (1980)
The director's keen interest in the history of his country is in some respects the animating force behind this movie, which is based on historical materialÑthe action begins in 1573, with Japan not yet unified, its regions presided over by warlords and samurais.
The focus here is on the Takeda clan; the emperor, Shingen, is fearful that the only thing yoking together his domain is the force of his personality.
Of course he cannot be everywhere at once, and from time to time employs his brother, Nobukado, to stand in for him.

The leader of the Takeda clan is Shingen, portrayed by Tatsuya Nakadai.
As Shingen cannot be everywhere at once, his brother Nobukado, played by Tsutomu Yamazaki, steps in from time to time to act as a “double”.
The thief known as Kagemusha, also played by Tatsuya Hakadai, is soon employed by the Takeda clan and trained to become the official “double” for Shingen.

The isolation alone is enough to drive a normal man insane and at the same time, it is well known that, aside from the faux-bodhisattvas looking to earn themselves a name, there are very few normal men would dare to travel the mountain itself anyway.
However, with the death of Takeda Shingen, it seems we are bound to fall to the Tokugawa.
He believes that if he can appease the Tengu King then Sojobo will train the Takeda army in the ways of fighting, the same way that the Iga ninja clan and even Minamoto Yoshitsune himself were trained.
