- Distinction: Court noble
Hachijo was a younger brother of the Emperor Go-Yozei. Toyotomi Hideyoshi adopted Hachijo in 1588 in an effort to strengthen Toyotomi and Imperial ties. In 1590 he was given land worth 3,000 koku and was slated to act as Hideyoshi's governor of Japan after China's hoped-for submission (during the Korean Invasion of 1592-93).
