Prince Anahobe (穴穂部皇子) was a Japanese Prince.
He was born to Emperor Kinmei and a consort Oanenokimi, Anahobe would have been titled "Imperial Prince Anahobe"[1]
Life[edit]
Not much is known about his early life. His life is mainly recorded from 585 onward when Emperor Bidatsu died. He was recorded saying, 'I don't understand why you obey the dead king and not the living one.'[2]He wouldn't become Emperor despite effort as in October 585 Prince Ōe, would become the Emperor much to the prince's dismay. In May 586, Prince Anahobe tried to break into Hinkyu to rape Princess Nukatabe, the widow of Emperor Bidatsu. He and many others described her as, 'fair of face and figure; well-mannered and polite.' As Anahobe tried break in, Miwa no Sakau, a favorite retainer of Emperor Bidatsu refused to let him in closing all the gates.[2] Although Prince Anahobe called seven times at the gate, he still couldn't enter Hinkyu. He did complain to Soga no Umako stating Sakau was useless, this was an attempt to get him fired so that he could get to Nukatabe, Although this didn't work.[2][1] When Emperor Yomei was dying he wondered wether to practice Buddhism or not. While the Mononobe clan was anti Buddhist, Soga no Umako was pro Buddhist. He sent for Anahobe to get a Buddhist Priest named Toyokuni.[3] In May 587, Mononobe no Moriya wanted to make Prince Anahobe the Emperor. This was due to Ōe's death. Moriya believed that Anahobe would be on the Shinto side.[3] So he sent an agent to Prince Anahobe and asked him to come to Awaji, pretending to go out for hunting. Soga no Umako caught wind of this. This would end the Soga–Mononobe conflict due to Umako sending assassins to kill Moriya, Prince Anahobe[1], and Prince Yakabe an ally of Anahobe. When Moriya died Anahobe was defenceless. The assassin sent to kill Anahobe, climbed the tower Anahobe was on and cut his shoulder, Anahobe fell and died. The next day Yakabe also was killed.[1][3][4]
Soga & Mononobe clans[edit]
The clans of Mononobe and Soga attempted to win him over. Both wanted to make him Emperor. Soga no Umako sent Anahobe to get the Buddhist priest[3] as a way to (in his eyes) possibly convert Anahobe to Buddhism . The Mononobe then sent a request to prince Anahobe, to go "Fishing", this was an attempt to secretly crown and proclaim him as emperor. This failed.[1][3]
