Ranmaru was literally given to Nobunaga as a personal servant when Nobunaga became taken in by Ranmaru's beauty and charisma. Some sources say, Nobunaga actually said, " I want him." Ranmaru was 6 when he first met Nobunaga but Nobunaga was much older. This practice was something even monks would partake in, believing it to curb the feminine corruption of women that could distract from being a good warrior. Supposedly, the younger man would be trained to become a capable man and warrior, teaching him valuable lessons in beauty, honour and virtue, and the older Samurai was seen as in a position of strength and power.
