Oda Nobunaga was not against all Buddhists; rather, he opposed certain militant factions within the Buddhist community, particularly the Ikko-Ikki sect, which had become politically powerful and hostile. His campaigns against these groups were driven by a desire to consolidate power and reduce their influence, rather than an outright hostility towards Buddhism as a whole. Nobunaga himself was known to be pragmatic and allowed other Buddhist practices to coexist, as long as they did not challenge his authority.
