Fujita Toranosuke was a notable [[Mito han]] ''[[karo|karô]]'' (House Elder) of the [[Bakumatsu period]].

He was placed under house arrest by the shogunate along with former lord of Mito [[Tokugawa Nariaki]] and fellow ''karô'' [[Toda Ginjiro|Toda Ginjirô]]; Toda and Fujita were released, however, on [[1846]]/12/28, while Nariaki remained confined for a time.

By [[1853]], Toda and Fujita were actively engaged in petitioning the shogunate to allow for Nariaki's involvement in discussions or policy decisions regarding foreign relations and coastal defense; they were eventually successful, and Nariaki was formally brought into policy discussions.
