Otaguro Tomoo
Person
Who is Otaguro Tomoo?
Ōtaguro Tomoo was a Japanese Nationalist and the leader of the Shinpūren Rebellion.
A sickly child, Ōtaguro was raised by his mother's family after the death of his father. In his early years, his health was so fragile that the family's physician even forbade him from reading.
Disgusted by the ukiyo lifestyle of contemporary Edo, Ōtaguro became involved with the Tosa Kin no To movement of Takechi Hanpeita. Concerned that his sonnō jōi activism would have negative repercussions for his family, he had himself stricken from the records of the Iida clan and was adopted into the Ono family. He became a disciple of Hayashi Oen, and followed his mentor into the Shinto priesthood, becoming shikan of the Isa Ote Jingu shrine at Shinkai.
