  • Died: 1523
  • Other names: Môri Motosuna, Sôgô Shirô Motosuna
  • Distinction: Môri retainer


Motosuna was a younger brother of Môri Motonari, though the two shared a different mother. Adopted into the Sôgô family, Mototsuna opposed Motonari's assumption of leadership of the Môri house in 1523. Though he gathered a number of notable Môri retainers to his cause, he was captured by Motonari and beheaded.
