Ankokuji Ekei (安国寺 恵瓊, 1539 – November 6, 1600) was a descendant of the Takeda clan of Aki province. Although it is certain that he was from the Aki Takeda clan, there are various theories about his birth year and father, and the former is said to have been in 1537 or 1539. There are two theories about the father : one says that Takeda Nobushige († 1541) was his father, and the other says that Takeda Shigekiyo (†1541), the father of Nobushige, was his father. In 1541, when the Aki Takeda were destroyed by Mori Motonari, he was taken away by faithful vassals and put in a safe place in Ankokuji Temple in Aki Province.
