Sanada Yukimura (1567 - 1615), real name Sanada Nobushige, was a samurai warrior from the Sengoku period. During the unification of Japan, he fought for both sides of the conflict, but eventually stood against Tokugawa Ieyasu. He became famed for his leadership during the Siege of Osaka, where he held off much greater Tokugawa forces for many months before his eventual death during a desperate last stand. He was greatly honoured posthumously, lauded as a hero and a legend.
