Born in 1338, ascended the throne in 1352 as the 4th Emperor of the Northern Court during the period of the Nanboku-chō (Northern and Southern Courts). His reign was marked by the ongoing dynastic struggle between the Northern Court, which he represented, and the Southern Court. His rule saw attempts to stabilize the Northern Court amid political unrest and conflict. After his abdication in 1371, lived in retirement until his death in 1394, with limited impact on the prolonged civil conflict between the two factions. His legacy continued through the line of emperors that followed.
