IMO, I think the two clans have the coolest looking Mon, but I can't find any information what it means, does anyone know what exactly the Mon is suppose to be and what does it symbolize?

What type of flower is the Oda Mon?
I know the Akechi apparently have a bellflower.
It's called a Mukou and it's really complicated. Here's a quote I took of Koei wiki:
"The mukou is a graceful seal from China which has several different meanings and users. It is said to either be a wisteria flower, a bird's feathers, the sleeping beauty flower or a deviation of the paulownia seal. During the Tang Dynasty, it was originally designed after a bird and its nest, and it was a seal for shrines to represent auspicious hopes for the family's future children. It was first used as a family crest in Japan by Tokudaiji Saneyoshi during the Heian period and it gained several variations ever since."
