I collected a lot of information about ancestry of the current monarch, emperor Akihito, to ninth generation.
Here it, formatted in Kekule system.
Adoptions have not been taken in, these are intended to be only biological descents.
Probably some problematic points are yet left, and possibly some mistakes. It has been particularly difficult to ensure who was mother in several cases. (Has it always even been recorded that someone was born of a concubine while then getting held as child of the official wife... such adoptions tend to leave little trace.)

Welcome to fill some of the blanks
There are yet several intriguing points in roots...
What were personal names of a number of ladies, here known only by family name and possibly father is known by his name.
