Shigetaka was a son of Akada Shigeyoshi. He served Oda Nobuo, a son of Oda Nobunaga. In 1584, on the eve of the Komaki Campaign, Nobuo came to suspect that Shigetaka and a number of other retainers were plotting against him on behalf of Toyotomi Hideyoshi. Nobuo summoned Shigetaka and the others to his castle. Shigetaka and his fellows were taken by surprise and killed.
