Description:

Set during the turbulent Sengoku period, Sanada Maru tells the epic story of Sanada Nobushige, a legendary samurai warrior. Born to a lord with only a small piece of land in Shinsu, present day Nagano Prefecture, Nobushige learns to survive through sheer wisdom, courage, and relentless effort. Over the years, his perseverance transforms him into a highly respected warrior. His ultimate challenge arises during the historic Siege of Osaka. Facing immense danger, Nobushige constructs a small but ingenious fortress named Sanadamaru on the periphery of Osaka Castle. Against incredible odds, this brilliant fortification and Nobushige’s tactical mastermind successfully repel the much larger invading forces of Tokugawa Ieyasu. This dramatic historical tale captures the spirit of a true samurai fighting for survival and honor.
