About Tsutsui Junshō

  • Tsutsui Junsho (?? ??, March 2, 1523 – August 2, 1550) was a warlord of the Japanese province of Yamato during the Sengoku period of the 16th century.
  • Junsho was the son of Tsutsui Junko.
  • Through one time in the Sengoku Period, Junsho was destined to ascend to the position of daimyo over the province of Yamato. Junsho's death was kept secret for three years.
  • A blind monk from Nara named Mokuami, whose physical appearance resembled Junsho, was used as a puppet to conceal his death.
  • Meanwhile, Junsho's son Tsutsui Junkei has grown up and took his father's position.
  • Mokuami, who has no value any more, was sent back to Nara as an ordinary priest.
