[[Takeda Motoaki]] (d.[[1582]]) sided with [[Akechi Mitsuhide]] following the latter's destruction of Oda Nobunaga in 1582 in the hopes of recovering land they had earlier given up at Nobunaga's behest. Motoaki was afterwards killed on [[Toyotomi Hideyoshi's|Toyotomi Hideyoshi's]] orders. The Wakasa Takeda were best known for cultural pursuits.
