Mōri Terumoto was the head of the Mōri clan, a powerful daimyo family in Aki Province (present-day Hiroshima Prefecture) during the Sengoku period, and the grandson of Mōri Motonari. He opposed Nobunaga, who was invading western Japan. He considered the security of his territory his top priority.
This will be Hama's second appearance in a Taiga drama, the first being as Taira no Koremori in "The 13 Lords of the Shogun" (2022), four years ago.
