* ''Born: [[1570]]''
* ''Died: [[1644]]''
* ''Titles: Kanbei''
* ''Distinction: [[Tokugawa clan|Tokugawa]] retainer''
Kagenori became a Tokugawa retainer following the fall of the [[Takeda clan|Takeda]] and was made a page to [[Tokugawa Hidetada]]. He is known to have seen service at the [[Osaka Winter Campaign]] ([[1614]]) and is reputed to have been sent to the [[Osaka]] garrison as a spy by the Tokugawa. Kagenori is attributed with writing at least part (if not most) of the ''[[Koyo Gunkan]]'', the well-known history of the [[Takeda clan (Kai)|Takeda of Kai]] in the 16th Century, which in fact amounts to a piece of hagiography extolling [[Takeda Shingen]]. From this work comes the popular view of the events surrounding the [[Fourth Battle of Kawanakajima]], a contest otherwise poorly documented in more reliable sources.
