Motoichi, also known as Yôichi, was the Deputy Governor of [[Settsu province]] under the Hosokawa. He rebelled and went to war against the [[kanrei]], [[Hosokawa Masamoto]], in [[1504]] in an attempt to replace him with his adopted son [[Hosokawa Sumitomo]], the [[shugo|shugô]] of Settsu province. Motoichi's rebellion was put down in a matter of weeks. He was captured and committed suicide.
