Yoshinori was a son of [[Otomo Yoshinaga|Ôtomo Yoshinaga]] and was married to a daughter of [[Ôuchi Yoshioki|Ôuchi Yoshioki]]. He worked to secure [[Otomo clan|Ôtomo]] influence over Bungo and clashed with the [[Ouchi clan|Ôuchi]] and [[Shoni clan|Shôni]]. He inherited a troubled retainer band and had to contend with his independent-minded brother, [[Kikuchi Yoshitake|Yoshitake]]. He indicated that he wished to name a younger son as his heir. This prompted a group of retainers who supported his eldest son, [[Otomo Yoshishige|Yoshishige]], to conspire against him. In February of [[1550]] those retainers, led by [[Irida Chikazane]], attacked Yoshiaki's residence, mortally wounding Yoshiaki and killing his son, Shioichimaru and Shioichimaru's mother.
