Masatsugu was the second son of [[Kanamaru Torayoshi|Kanamaru Chikuzen no Kami Torayoshi]] (d. [[1572]]). He fought in many of [[Takeda Shingen|Takeda Shingen's]] battles, notably the [[Fourth Battle of Kawanakajima]]. He contemplated killing himself when Shingen died in [[1573]] but [[Kosaka Masanobu]] managed to convince him to carry on in the service of the [[Takeda clan|Takeda]]. He was killed just two years later, shot to death in the [[Battle of Nagashino]]. His three sons were among the final supporters of [[Takeda Katsuyori]] and died fending off [[Oda clan|Oda]] troops while their lord committed suicide at Temmokuzan.
