Amari Nobunaga

is a member of the Takeda clan, and is also an idiot who seems to have a lot of trouble with (luckily) shallow cliffs. He has a pet monkey, which he calls Hiyoshimaru. He was first introduced as a hungry person, looking for food in Kagome's bagpack, but ended up with her clothes instead by accident. He is madly in love with Princess Tsuyu, who has newly married into another clan.

Everytime he walked in a certain direction by himself, Inuyasha tells him, "I think I wouldn't go that way if I were you", and Nobunaga would always fall off a shallow cliff.

He helped Kagome and Inuyasha fight against Tsukumo no Gama, "the immortal frog".

At the end of episode 8, he refers to himself as the world's biggest idiot and fool, before, once again, walking off the same shallow cliff. Both Inuyasha and Kagome agree with that statement.

He didn't join the group with Inuyasha and Kagome.

His character is also like Hojo in some ways, they're both oblivious, happy, caring and sometimes a little naive.

Appearance and personality
Nobunaga wears a purple shitagi and a blue hakama over it. A standard obi is tied over the costume, which holds his katana. He also wears a pair of wooden zōri on his feet.
