Episode 7: Bloody Betrayals

Samurai dramas paint feudal Japan in gleaming armor and noble duels.

But the truth was far darker.

In this episode, we descend into the Sengoku era, which was a century of civil war, betrayal, and blood. From Oda Nobunaga, the self-styled “Demon King of the Sixth Heaven” who burned monks alive on a mountain, to Toyotomi Hideyoshi, the peasant who rose to power only to fall to ambition, to Tokugawa Ieyasu, the patient schemer who built an empire on the ashes of his rivals.

Along the way, we'll uncover massacres, betrayals, ninja shadows, and curses that linger to this day.

This is the true story of how Japan was unified... through fire, treachery, and rivers of blood.
