* ''Born: [[1502]]''

* ''Other names: Yoshiyori, Yoshiaki''
* ''Distinction: Lord of [[Mino province|Mino]]''
Yorinari was a son of [[Toki Masafusa|Masafusa]] and took over the [[Toki clan|Toki]] following the death of his elder brother [[Toki Yorizumi|Yorizumi]] in [[1548]]. He resided at [[Inabayama castle|Inabayama]]. The authority of the Toki, already tenuous, steadily eroded under Yorinari, due in no small measure to machinations of [[Saito Dosan|Saitô Dôsan]]. Yorinari was finally overthrown by Dôsan in [[1542]] and went off into retirement, at length wandering from province to province. Following the death of [[Oda Nobunaga]] at the [[Honnoji]] in [[1582]], a number of Yoriaki's old retainers invited him to return to Mino, though he died soon afterwards. He may have been the biological father of [[Saito Yoshitatsu|Saitô Yoshitatsu]]: around [[1526]] Yorinari gave Saitô Dôsan his favorite concubine, although the circumstances surrounding this event are hazy. Less than eight months later, this concubine gave birth to Yoshitatsu and so, naturally, his parentage was questionable.
