The Komatsu House (Komatsu-no-miya) or Higashifushimi (東伏見) ōke (princely house) was the sixth oldest branch of the Imperial House of Japan, created from branches of the Fushimi-no-miya house, presently extinct. It was founded by Imperial Prince Yoshiaki, the seventh son of Prince Fushimi-no-miya Kuniye, in 1872. Prince Yoshiaki was given the title of komatsu-no-miya and changed his first name to Akihito. Since he died without an heir, the Komatsu-no-miya reverted to Higashifushimi-no-miya[broken anchor] (東伏見宮家) in 1903.
