Overall it wasn't a bad series, but the ending was too dumb.
Many big and effective battles were ignored in the series and scenes of personal and emotional life of Mitsuhide and those around him were shown instead.
For example, one of the conflicts between Nobunaga and Mitsuhide occurred during the capture and defeat of Takeda, but it was not discussed at all.
But the ending was the most disappointing of all, the Battle of Yamazaki was the climax and end of Mitsuhide's life, which was not depicted. According to history, there were two cases, firstly, Mitsuhide was killed by bandits two weeks after fleeing the battle (which was never officially confirmed, as the severed head could not be identified) and secondly, Mitsuhide took refuge in Ieyasu and became a monk Tenkai (which is also ambiguous).
In the two previous historical series of this company, the end of Yukimura Sanada's life and the fate of the Ii clan, both were completely accurately depicted.
I hope that the next series, that is, the series that deals with the life of Ieyasu and will be broadcast in 2023, will cover the ambiguities of this series and take a better path.
