Lord Takanori Yamamura (山村伊豆守孝則 Yamamura Izu no Kami Takanori) is the leader of Oshima and Izu.

Born in Sashikiji, Izu Oshima, Takanori rose to become undisputed master of the Izu Archipelago before extending his power to the mainland and receiving the title of Izu no Kami (Governor of Izu Province) from the Shogun. He subsequently added Sagami Province to his domain after defeating the Hōjō family at the battles of Hakone and Odawara.

A noted kendoka, Takanori won his future wife Mitsuko Yamamura in a kendo tournament.
