Isshiki Norimitsu

Isshiki Norimitsu (1325–1388), fifth head of the Isshiki clan and a shugo daimyo, fought alongside his father Noriuji and brother Naouji against the Southern Court in Kyushu, becoming Hizen shugo in 1353, until defeat by the Kikuchi drove him back to Kyoto in 1359.

He kept the trust of Shoguns Yoshiakira and Yoshimitsu, receiving Wakasa in 1366. From 1369 to 1371 he crushed the Wakasa kokujin ikki, securing the clan's place among the Four Offices. Later ordained, he died in 1388 aged 64.
