> Chidori is a shinobi in service to Oda Nobunaga during Japan's Warring States period. Her origin stems from Nobunaga rescuing her from drowning as a child, an act forging her absolute loyalty to him and his dream of unifying Japan. > She wields exceptional ninja skills, proven by defeating elite adversaries like a leading Koga ninja, though her effectiveness is occasionally undermined by personal clumsiness and misjudgments. Her talents extend to diplomacy, successfully convincing political figures to support Nobunaga's cause. > Chidori's actions are defined by her relationship with Nobunaga; she recognizes his key vulnerabilities as his sister Oichi, alcohol, and sweets. She shares a close bond with fellow shinobi Sukezou, who develops tools such as smoke bombs for her use and holds romantic feelings for her. She also interacts with figures in Nobunaga's circle, including his wife Kichou and his sister Oichi, whose politically significant marriage is to Azai Nagamasa. > Her character development intensifies during the Battle of Anegawa, a focal point of the third season. This conflict pits Nobunaga against the combined forces of Azai Nagamasa (Oichi's husband) and Asakura, forcing a clash between familial loyalties and battlefield allegiances. Described as having "saved her tears," Chidori experiences an awakening during this battle, confronting the emotional and moral complexities of warfare where "even brothers must fight." This arc marks her progression from unwavering devotion to grappling with the personal costs of Nobunaga's unification campaign. > While her core traits of loyalty, skill, and clumsiness persist, the evolving political and military conflicts continually test her resolve and emotional resilience.
