Yoshinobu was [[Takeda Shingen|Shingen's]] eldest son. His mother was the daughter of court noble [[Sanjo Kinyori|Sanjô Kinyori]] and Yoshinobu himself was married to a daughter of [[Imagawa Yoshimoto]] in [[1552]]. He argued with his father over the conduct of the [[Fourth Battle of Kawanakajima]] ([[1561]]), where he was wounded, as well as disagreed on what to do about the [[Imagawa clan]] in [[Suruga province]] after the death of his father in law, Imagawa Yoshimoto.  He went so far as to lobby his position to Shingen's generals behind his back, and relations between father and son soured after this. In [[1565]] he was accused of plotting against Shingen and was confined to the [[Toko temple]]. In [[1567]] he was made to commit suicide. Another theory has it that he died of illness, though most historians accept that Shingen ordered his death, possibly to insure that [[Takeda Katsuyori]] would succeed him.
