Toshimitsu was from [[Mino province]] and a long-time retainer of Akechi Mitsuhide, though he at first served [[Saito Yoshitatsu|Saitô Yoshitatsu]]. He was considered a competent soldier. According to one version of events, he was captured after the [[Battle of Yamazaki]] and executed. Another theory has that he killed himself the day after the battle. Toshimitsu's daughter was the well-known [[Kasuga no Tsubone]], who would be a nurse for the later [[shogun|shôgun]] [[Tokugawa Iemitsu]].

It is said that his close friends, the painter [[Kaiho Yusho|Kaihô Yûshô]] and the tea master [[Toyobo Chosei|Tôyôbô Chôsei]], took his head to [[Shinnyodo|Shinnyodô]], a temple in eastern Kyoto, where they buried it.<ref name=shinnyodo/>
