Kacho (died 1582) was a Japanese criminal and the leader of a child-abduction ring located in Osaka.

Biography

A disturbed woman, Kacho had kidnapped a local baby girl and raised her as her own, despite the girl never becoming close to her. Meanwhile, she led her fellow kidnappers Richo, Shucho and Mucho to abduct children from wealthy businesspeople in order to seize control of their trades. Her "adopted" daughter saw an opportunity, however, to be free from Kacho's criminal ways.[1]

In 1582, the kunoichi Fujibayashi Naoe found notes during a game of collecting paper butterflies. The notes illuminated the locations of Kacho's plan and her co-conspirators, whom died by Naoe's hand. From her investigation, Naoe determined the paper used for butterflies was bought by a wealthy woman and the location of Kacho being at Nishinomaru Garden, west of Osaka Castle.[1]

Traveling there, Naoe confronted Kacho, who blamed her daughter for being too weak to follow her orders. Kacho ultimately died by Naoe's hand but not before revealing that local woman who sent Naoe was part of her criminal enterprise.[1]

Personality and traits

Kacho wielded dual tantōs as her main weapons.[2]
