Takanashi Masayori
Deceased Person

Who was Takanashi Masayori?
Takanashi Masayori was a retainer beneath the clan of Uesugi throughout the latter Sengoku Period of Feudal Japan. Masayori was the eldest son of Shinano warlord Takanashi Sumiyori and would mutually support his father's intent to restore their land after Takeda Shingen had claimed it as his own. As Masayori thus became a retainer to the powerful Uesugi Kenshin in prospect of achieving this goal, he would fight under the former's banner throughout the 3rd and Fourth Battle of Kawanakajima. In retrospect to Masayori's service he became known as one of Kenshin's Twenty-Eight Generals; despite this, Masayori did not support his lord following Kawanakajima in 1561, but chose the Ogasawara as a new master.
