Masanori Fukushima (福島 正則) is loyal general of the Toyotomi clan and one of the Seven Spears of Shizugatake. He is one of the many generals who joins the Eastern Army prior to Sekigahara.

Samurai Warriors
In Samurai Warriors 2, Masanori is usually seen alongside Kiyomasa Kato. They act as Nene's closest "children" and are very loyal to her. They address her as "Lady Nene" at all times. However, he can't stand Mitsunari and often berates him. When Sekigahara takes place, he is one of the closest units to the Western camp on the battlefield. He is dubbed as one of Ieyasu's Four Generals. During Nene's dream stage, he apologizes for his rash behavior.

Kessen
Masanori is a general who serves Ieyasu in Kessen. Naga Kuroda convinces him that joining Ieyasu's army will be rewarding. Although he is a Toyotomi loyalist, he passionately despises Mitsunari. He will boldly charge for his camp at Sekigahara. Should Ieyasu try to order him to do otherwise, Masanori will refuse to comply. He's Kiyomasa's childhood friend and won't fight him if they're on opposing sides. He leads a very speedy cavalry and is one of the faster units in the game. He can defect back to the Toyotomi side if Mitsunari is dead.

Masanori can be recruited into Nobunaga's army in Kessen III. If Hideyoshi survives as the rear guard at Echizen, Masanori will appear after the battle. He has a high cavalry proficiency and can serve as a good spear unit.

Saihai no Yukue
He also appears as a general for the Eastern Army in Saihai no Yukue. He hates Mitsunari and volunteered to join Ieyasu's troops. He is a strong braggart who is prideful of his capabilities. His nicknamed "pig-head" by some of the Western officers.
