Nobuo was the second son of [[Oda Nobunaga]]. He was adopted into the [[Kitabatake clan|Kitabatake family]] following the submission of that family to the [[Oda clan|Oda]] in [[1569]] and assumed leadership in [[1576]]. He ordered the 1st (unsuccessful) Invasion of [[Iga province|Iga]] in [[1579]] and led around 10,000 men in the 2nd Invasion after being rebuked by his father for his lack of sense. Nobunaga had intended to send him against Shikoku (as a surviving letter indicates) but was killed before this could occur ([[1582]]). Following the [[Kiyosu Conference]], Nobuo received much of [[Owari province|Owari]] as well as [[Ise province|Ise]]. His claim to his father's position was supported in [[1584]] by [[Tokugawa Ieyasu]] and as a result the [[Komaki Campaign]] was conducted, for the most part in Owari. Nobuo felt compelled to make a separate peace with Hideyoshi by the end of the year and as a result was allowed to retain some of his lands in Owari and went on to lead troops under [[Toyotomi Hideyoshi|Hideyoshi's]] standard during the [[1590]] [[Odawara Campaign]]. He recieved the title Chûnagon in [[1585]].
