Fujiwara no Fuhito

Fujiwara no Fuhito (藤原 不比等) (659 – September 13, 720) – was a Kugyō (公卿) during the Asuka and Nara Periods, the father of the founders of the four cadet branches of the Fujiwara Clan, the alleged father of Fujiwara no Mokou as well as a father-in-law of Emperor Monmu and Emperor Shōmu. =In Touhou Lore=

Fuhito and Fujiwara no Mokou
Fuhito is said to be the father of Mokou.

Fuhito and Kaguya Houraisan
In Touhou lore, Prince Kuramochi no Miko might have been inspired (or identical to) Fuhito. In The Tale of the Bamboo Cutter he was tasked to retrieve a jeweled branch from the island of Mount Hourai.

Fuhito and Hieda no Akyuu
Some Japanese ancient history enthusiasts believe, that Hieda no Are came from Fujiwara Clan or even that 'Hieda no Are' was Fuhito's pen name. However, this theories are not accepted by accepted by academic scholars.

Fuhito and Toyosatomimi no Miko
According to some, Fuhito deliberately invented Prince Shōtoku during the writing of Nihon Shoki. Fuhito did it, so that the Japanese people would have an archetypal philosopher-emperor, similar the Chinese emperors.

Other historians say that, on the contrary, Shōtoku was a real person and Fuhito tried to erase him from history.

Fuhito and Soga no Tojiko
Fuhito's father led to the downfall of Tojiko's Clan. He was later struck dead by lightning shortly thereafter, an incident which was said to be the curse of the Soga clan. If we take into consideration the fact, that Tojiko uses thunderbolt danmaku, it is possible that she is Fujiwara no Kamatari's murderer.
