Nasu Suketaka Yoichi (also known as Nasu no Yoichi) is a nineteen-year-old man with a very effeminate appearance. Although he died many years prior to Nobunaga and Toyohisa, Yoichi is the youngest member of the group. His historical date of death is uncertain, though some records suggest he died either on August 8, 1189, or in October 1190. Historically, he is recognized as a formidable warrior who served Minamoto no Yoshitsune during the Genpei War and appears in the Tale of the Heike. However, Nobunaga observes that Yoichi differs significantly from these historical accounts. Yoichi serves as the group's archer, killing enemies who attempt to flee.
