Person
Ohatsu
Ohatsu was the second daughter of Azai Nagamasa and Oichi. She married Kyōgoku Takatsugu and after his death in 1609 became a Buddhist nun as Jōkō-in. Linked by blood to both sides, she acted as an intermediary between her elder sister Yodo-dono at Osaka and the Tokugawa, whose shogun Hidetada was married to her younger sister Go, during the Osaka campaigns of 1614–1615.
