Fujiwara Seika was a Confucian scholar of the late 16th to early 17th centuries.

He met with a Korean embassy at Daitoku-ji in 1590, and is said to have learned much about Neo-Confucianism from them.[1]

He later was one of the main teachers of Hayashi Razan, the first of a series of Hayashi family Confucian advisors to the Tokugawa shoguns.
