Under Nobunaga, he took part in a great many battles, including the battle of Anegawa in 1570, and the campaigns against the Ikkō-ikki of Nagashima (1571-4). Following Nobunaga's death in 1582, Takigawa, along with many of the Oda retainers, initially opposed Toyotomi Hideyoshi, but entered his service upon their defeat. Following a particularly grievous defeat in 1584, Takigawa retired from battle and become a Buddhist monk. He died in 1586. Takigawa's standard was three red circles arranged vertically.
