Irohi II (23 December 1929 - 15 October 2023) was the longest-serving Emperor of Tosichi. He became emperor following the death of his father Ichijou in 1966, and reigned until his death in 2023, at which point he was succeeded by his eldest son Sayako. As Emperor, Irohi reigned over a period of substantial change and modernization for Tosichi, including the departure of Siniapore, significant economic growth, and made efforts to bring the imperial family closer to the Tosichi people. Irohi II made official visits to all prefectures of Tosichi and to many of the remote islands under its territory, as well as most nations in the world. He had a keen interest in natural life and conservation, as well as Tosichi and world history.
