Akechi Mitsutsuna (明智光綱, ? - 1538) was a senior retainer under the Toki clan throughout the latter Sengoku period of Feudal Japan. He was the son of Akechi Mitsutsugu and ascended to the headship of the Akechi by the late 1400s. According to conjecture, Mitsutsuna settled his domain within the southeastern half of Mino Province, occupying Akechi Castle as his initial base of power. Following such means, Mitsutsuna fathered many potential heirs to his family line, one of such being the reputed Akechi Mitsuhide, who would carry on his respective clan through heirship, initially serving under the Toki following the headship of his father. As Mitsutsuna thus served under Toki Yorinari for many years by means of his genetic relation to the former, he died by some unknown means within 1538, conjectively by means of old age, considering that the Toki were already neutral in their political aspirations and did not meet any direct form of harm until Saito Dosan's overthrownment.
