Nobunaga's troops made camp at Tsushima, to the northeast of Nagashima, on 16 May 1571.

Nagashima was given control of the team in November 1974, and he immediately rid the Giants of the tactical, small ball style left by his predecessor, relying instead on superior hitting and pitching to carry the team.

In 1993, Nagashima appeared on " Hateshinai Yume wo ( 果てしない夢を )," a collaborative single featuring Japanese artist Rev and bands Zygg, Zard, and Wands.

Since 1574, Naomasa took part in military actions and in 1575, he joined the sieges of Nagashima, a crackdown on the Ikkō-ikki rebellions in Echizen Province.

Nobunaga then moved on to fighting the Ikkō-ikki in their fortresses of Nagashima and Ishiyama Hongan-ji ( see Sieges of Nagashima, Siege of Ishiyama Hongan-ji ).

They established themselves in fortresses at Ishiyama Hongan-ji, just outside Osaka, and in Nagashima, on the borders of Owari and Ise Provinces, and in a series of temples of Mikawa Province as well.

Nagashima did not hit or field well, and his playing time decreased as the years went on.

Horiuchi ( a pitching coach while Nagashima was on the Giants ) was irritated at Nagashima, who probably spent more time partying than taking batting practice.

While Oda himself focused on the sieges of the Nagashima fortress and other campaigns, his armies remained camped out, assigned to monitor the Ikki's fortress, and take it if they could.

Nagashima, in Owari Province along Japan's Pacific coast, was the location of a string of river island fortresses and defensive works controlled by the Ikkō-ikki, which surrounded their Ganshō-ji monastery and which included Nagashima Castle, which they had captured previously.

Eventually, the defenders were forced back by a three-pronged attack, into the fortified monasteries of Ganshōji and Nagashima.

Regardless, Nagashima became the team's clean-up hitter by mid-season, and the Giants won the league championship.

The team attempted to revive him by giving him more at-bats, but Nagashima no longer had the success he had shown during his younger years.

* Nagashima was given a customized entrance and graduation test from his university, since he would have failed the standard tests taken by other students.
