Kutsuna Yoshinori

Kutsuna Yoshinori was a naval commander of the Kutsuna clan who held Kōura Castle on Kutsuna Island in Iyo Province. Unlike his brother Shigekiyo, he served the Southern Court throughout and led the clan after his brother's death.

From 1339 he sheltered Emperor Go-Daigo's son Prince Kaneyoshi for three years and guarded him against the Kōno and the Aki-Takeda. He supported a Southern Court landing in Iyo and later fought alongside Ashikaga Tadafuyu.
