Fujita Ichirou (Japanese: 藤田一郎, Fujita Ichirō), born Kurisaki Kousuke (Japanese: 栗崎康介, Kurisaki Kōsuke) was the leader of the Tejano Proletariat Army during the first five years of the Tejano Civil War, the founder and first Chairperson of the Tejano Worker's Party, and briefly President of the Republic of H-Town Tejas. One of the most important figures in the Tejano revolutionary movement, and mentor to the TWP in general and President and Chairman Nagaraku Ryouta in particular.

Early Life

Kurisaki Kousuke was born in Christensen City, a small rural town in the same southern state as New Fukuoka. His family managed to acquire forged documents allowing them to leave the city and move to New Fukuoka, then called Houston. Kousuke, the youngest of five children, Shou, Junko, Saburou, Sakurako, and himself, was his parents' favorite, and they managed to get him into the best school in New Fukuoka accessible to non-whites. However, this still did not provide him with anything resembling a quality education, and he dropped out of 9th Grade, instead working various jobs to help put food in his family's mouth, both on the right and wrong sides of the law. One of the latter jobs was with Tawada pimp Joseph Umida, which was the job he held the longest. Through this, he met a younger kid named Irie Tetsu, whom he made friends with. After getting a factory job at age 17, Kousuke became involved in the suppressed, highly illegal Tejano labor movement, and from there developed democratic socialist views which he only confided in Tetsu and his fellow wokers, lest the government find out about his politics and kill him.

The Civil War

Kousuke began to organize the workers of his factory in distributing resistance literature, stockpiling weapons, and converting Houston's citizens to the cause. This work culminated in the October 25, 1987 riots, which went from small-scale protesting in the poorest neighborhoods of the city, such as Tawada, San Urbano, and Pantano to huge riots that put the entire city of Houston in the hands of Kousuke's resistance, which on December 15, he organized into the political Tejano Worker's Party and the military Tejano Proletariat Army. Using guerilla tactics to deadly effect in the underdeveloped swamp of Christensen State, the TPA spread from the Southern states like wildfire. The large variation in political ideals within both organizations, however, caused the revolutionary movement a lot of problems. Under Kousuke, who had given himself the nom de guerre Fujita Ichirou, and his charismatic leadership, the TWP and TPA stayed together, however, and after five years of war against the fascist regime, decadent and rotted to its very core with corruption, Fujita entered Austin and proclaimed the Republic of H-Town Tejas. Brand Christensen, the President of the Social Republic of Texas, and many other officials in his government, escaped into far-right dictatorships such as Parthia, Banduria, and Roach-Busters.

In Power

Fujita ruled for a month, which he would have spent rebuilding and reforming the country, which was in absolute shambles after a century of corrupt minority rule finally came to a close. However, militant supporters of the old regime and a mistimed UN "peacekeeping" force, came in to prevent him from doing anything of the sort, and he was killed by said UN operation on March 23, 1993. Tetsu, who had been known as Nagaraku Ryouta throughout the war, took his place as leader of the TWP and TPA, and Du Dongliang, his Vice President, became President.

Legacy

Fujita Ichirou is Tejas's undisputed national hero. Even Tejano organizations that resist the TWP regime, such as the Democratic Solidarity Front, hold a deep respect for him. The only Tejanos who don't respect Fujita would be the fascists.

Fujita's body was cremated in 1993, in accordance with Chairman Nagaraku's statement that "he would have wanted it that way." The massive Fujita Ichirou Memorial in Christensen City, now named Fujita-shi, is one of the most visited locations in Tejas. The street in New Fukuoka which the People's Assembly is on is named in his honor, as is New Fukuoka's International Airport and the city's foremost hospital. Both the PRH-TT Constitution and the TWP charter have some sort of paragraph that states, "The People's Republic of H-Town Tejas/The Tejano Worker's Party bases its ideology and policies off of Comrade Fujita Ichirou thought," although, as Democratic Solidarity Front leader Kong Shui has stated, "That would probably make our beloved Comrade Fujita turn in his grave."

Chairman Nagaraku Ryouta was apparently involved in writing the screenplay for a biographical movie about Fujita before his own assassination. He neither confirmed nor denied this. Fujita is commonly referenced in Tejano rap music, and many shirts that might be adorned with pictures of Che Guevara are adorned with his face instead. The irony of this near-deity status is that Fujita was quoted as saying, "I would hate so much to have a cult of personality."
