Buretsu
Buretsu ( Japanese 武 烈 天皇 Buretsu-tennō ; * 489 ; † January 7, 507 ) was the 25th Tennō of Japan (498-507) after the history books Nihonshoki and Kojiki . It presumably ruled in the late 5th century.
According to these two books, he was a man of sharp character. He died without children, which is why the court officials had to look nationwide for a successor related to him.
