• Wada Koremasa

Wada Koremasa was a retainer of the Naitō throughout the latter Sengoku period of Feudal Japan. Koremasa was the son of Wada Wakasuke and directly supported the Ashikaga shogunate. He became a primary retainer to Ashikaga Yoshiaki following the murder of Yoshiteru in 1565. As Yoshiaki came under the influence of Oda Nobunaga in 1567, Koremasa continued to support his lord and proved himself as a useful figure to the Naitō during 1569. He secured an audience between Oda Nobunaga and Jesuit Missionary Luís Fróis. Following this event, Koremasa supported in affairs directly linked to the Takayama clan and at length became a valued retainer to the Oda, as shown by his collaboration with Araki Murashige in the defense of the clan in 1571. However, Koremasa was overwhelmed by the attackers, which subsequently resulted in his death.
