* ''Born: [[1517]]?''
* ''Died: [[1582]]''
* ''Sons: [[Nanbu Harutsugu]] (d. 1582), [[Nanbu Nobunao]] (adopted)''
* ''Distinction: [[Mutsu province|Mutsu]] warlord''
Harumasa was a son of [[Nanbu Yasunobu]] and succeeded him in [[1540]]. He was granted the use of 'Haru' in his name from the [[shogun|shôgun]] [[Ashikaga Yoshiharu]] in [[1539]]. He attacked the [[Tozawa clan]] to the south and captured [[Iwate district]]. In the late 1550's he went to war with the [[Akita clan|Akita family]] of the [[Ugo]] region. His effective leadership and rapid attacks assured the [[Nanbu clan|Nanbu]] a status as one of the most powerful clans in northern [[Mutsu province]]. In [[1581]], however, he suffered the rebellion of the [[Oura clan|Ôura]] ([[Tsugaru clan|Tsugaru]]). He was succeeded by his son Harutsugu, but as the latter died soon afterwards, Harumasa's adopted son and nephew, Nobunao, was named the heir.
