Osaka Jōdai
were officials of the Tokugawa shogunate in Edo period Japan. Those appointmented to this prominent office were exclusively ''fudai daimyōs''.Beasley, William G. (1955). ''Select Documents on Japanese Foreign Policy, 1853–1868'', p. 326. Conventional interpretations have construed these Japanese titles as "commissioner" or "overseer" or "governor". This ''bakufu'' title identifies an official responsible for holding and defending , and for administration of the city of Osaka. This office was considered only slightly less important than the Kyoto ''shoshidai''; and this important ''daimyō'' officer was charged with guarding the security of the ''Kansai'' region. Originally, there were six ''jodai,'' but that number was eventually reduced to only one. Conventionally, the man appointed to this essential position would have previously demonstrated his abilities and loyalty by serving as ''jisha-bugyō'' or by having succeeded in another similarly important role.

Bugyō
was a title assigned to ''samurai'' officials during the feudal period of Japan. ''Bugyō'' is often translated as commissioner, magistrate, or governor, and other terms would be added to the title to describe more specifically a given official's tasks or jurisdiction.
