Oda Nobutaka was Oda Nobunaga’s (1534–1582) third son and ruled Gifu Castle from 1582 to 1583. As part of Nobunaga’s plan to control the important Ise region, Nobutaka was adopted into the Kanbe clan as their clan leader. In 1582, Nobutaka was ordered by his father to subjugate the island of Shikoku. However, just prior to the invasion,while Nobunaga was in Kyoto his trusted general Akechi Mitsuhide (1528–1582) betrayed and attacked him. Nobutaka quickly joined forces with another Oda general, Toyotomi Hideyoshi (1537–1598), and would kill Akechi during the Battle of Yamazaki in 1582.

On the death of their father and elder brother, Nobutada (1557–1582), a struggle for succession broke out between Nobutaka and his other brother, Nobukatsu (1558–1630). It would be Nobutada’s infant son who was eventually named heir, and Toyotomi Hideyoshi was given custody of the child. Nobutaka did receive Gifu Castle, but seeing Hideyoshi take on his father’s position, he joined forces with Shibata Katsuie (1522–1583), to attack him. During the ensuing Battle of Shizugatake (1583), Nobutaka’s brother Nobukatsu lay siege to Gifu castle, with him inside it. Shibata was killed following the battle, severely weakening Nobutaka’s position and forcing him to surrender Gifu Castle. He was exiled to Utsumi in present-day Aichi, where he was forced by Hideyoshi and Nobukatsu to commit ritual suicide.

織田信孝は織田信長(1534-1582)の三男で1582年から1583年のあいだ岐阜城の城主であった。信長の伊勢地方を重視する計画のため、信孝は神戸氏にそのリーダーとしてして養子に出された。1582年に父親信長に四国征伐の命を受けた。しかし、侵攻前に信長は京都で信頼する武将の明智光秀(1528-1582)に裏切られ攻撃され死亡した。信孝は1582年もう一人の織田の武将豊臣秀吉(1537-1598)と素早く連携し、山崎の戦い(京都郊外)で明智光秀を滅ぼした。

父織田信長と長兄織田信忠(1557-1582)の死によって、次兄の織田信雄(1588-1630)との間に織田家継承問題が起きた。最終的に長兄信忠の幼子が豊臣秀吉の後見で織田家を引き継いだ。信孝は岐阜城を手にしたが、秀吉が父信長の地位の簒奪を目にして、信長の武将の一人柴田勝家と秀吉を攻撃するため手を結んだ。1583年賤ケ岳の戦い(滋賀県)の間に、信孝の兄信雄が岐阜城を包囲攻撃した。柴田勝家は賤ケ岳で殺され、信孝は地位を弱められ、岐阜城の明け渡しを命じられた。愛知県知多半島の内海に追放され、秀吉と信雄に自刃させられた。
