Hineno Takayoshi (日根野高吉, Hineno Takayoshi^?) (1539-1600) was a retainer beneath the clan of Toyotomi throughout the latter Sengoku Period of Feudal Japan. At first serving as vassal to Oda Nobunaga, Takayoshi would pass on his services to Toyotomi Hideyoshi following his master's passing in 1582, forthwith taking part in the Odawara Campaign of 1590. Initially after this incident, Takayoshi obtained Takashima castle of Shinano province; and as such an establishment had been burned by the soldiery of Nobunaga in the year of 1582, he immediately set out to reconstruct the castle grounds and build for himself a domain. The time that followed was primarily defined by controversy with Hideyoshi during the 1st Korean Campaign of 1592, at which Takayoshi would have already possessed a heir known as Yoshimoto for the sake of succeeding his position after death in 1600.
