Michihito (方仁; 1517 – 1593), also known as Emperor Ōgimachi (正親町天皇), was the 106th emperor of Japan, reigning from 1557 until his abdication in 1586.[1]

In 1580,[2] Emperor Ōgimachi sent a court official to broker a settlement and a surrender by the Ikkō-ikki, putting an end to the Ishiyama Hongan-ji War between them and Oda Nobunaga.[3] Later on, Nobunaga himself financed the Emperor and furnished the Imperial Palace, helping Ōgimachi, who was widely respected as a descendent from the sun goddess but had little money, and gaining legitimacy as a ruler.[4]
