★ '''Kakitsu gannen''' or '''Kakitsu 1''', on the 24th day of the 6th month (1441): Shogun Yoshinori is murdered at age 48 by Akamatsu Mitsusuke; and shortly thereafter, his 8-year-old son, Yoshikatsu, is proclaimed as the new Shogun.[1]
★ '''Kakitsu 3''', on the 21 day of the 7th month (1443): Shogun Yoshikatsu died at the age of 10. He very much like riding horses; but he was gravely injured in a fall from a horse. This was the cause of his death. He had been shogun for only three years. His 8-year-old brother, Yoshinari, was then named shogun.[2] [Yoshinhari will later change his name to Yoshimasu; and he may be better known by that name.]
The years in which Yoshikatsu was shogan are more specifically identified by only one era name or ''nengÅ''.
