Description / Lore

Imagawa Yoshimoto is a daimyo of Suruga Province (modern-day eastern Shizuoka Prefecture). He hails from a great family that claims descent from the Ashikaga, the clan of the shogun.

A celebrated general who was dubbed the "greatest archer in Tokaido", he successfully extended his clan's power all the way to Totomi and Mikawa. When he launched an assault on Owari, hoping to expand his clan's power westward, he was met with a surprise attack by Oda Nobunaga in Okehazama.

In spite of their overwhelming military might, the Imagawa forces were thrown into disarray by the surprise attack, and Yoshimoto was ultimately defeated by the protagonist.
