Count Hisaichi Terauchi (1879-1946) was an Imperial Japanese Army officer and the son of Field Marshal Masatake Terauchi. He emphasized obedience to the Emperor and an end of factionalism in the Imperial Japanese Army, and was assigned to purge elements of the Imperial Way Faction after the February 26, 1936 Incident.

From 1941 to 1945, he commanded the Southern Area Army, including the Philippines. He was Tomiyuki Yamashita's superior officer but too sick to surrender or be arrested.
