* ''Died: [[1624]]''
Masatsugu was the son of [[Hajikano Tadatsugu|Hajikano Gengorô Tadatsugu]] (killed at [[Fourth Battle of Kawanakajima|Fourth Kawanakajima]] in [[1561]]). He was famed for testing the depth of the Sasao River during [[Takeda Shingen|Shingen's]] advance on Odawara in [[1569]] by fearlessly riding into the waters himself. He fought at the [[Battle of Nagashino]] in [[1575]] and survived the fall of the [[Takeda clan|Takeda]] in [[1582]] to die of illness in 1624, perhaps the last of the famous Takeda retainers to die.
