Sagara Nagaari/Nagaaki (Japanese: 相良 長在 さがら ながあり/ながあきら[*]) was the 6th daimyo of Hitoyoshi Domain in Higo Province.
Life
In the 3rd month, 22nd day of Genroku 16 (1703) (according to another account, the 2nd month, 22nd day), he was born as the fifth son of Sagara Yoritomi, the 4th daimyo. On the 1st day of the 7th month of Kyōhō 5 (1720), he became the adopted son of his elder brother Nagaoki, the 5th daimyo, and on the 11th day of the 7th month of Kyōhō 6 (1721), upon Nagaoki's retirement, he succeeded to the headship of the house. In domain affairs, the domain's finances further deteriorated, as it suffered from frequent heavy rains and floods, droughts, locust swarms, and the Kyōhō famine. Also, in the 7th month of Kyōhō 10 (1725), he enacted the Kachū Shikiseigi (家中之式制), prohibitions (禁制), and other regulations.
In Genbun 3 (1738), while returning to the domain from Edo, he fell ill, and on the 25th day of the 6th month, he died at Dairi in Buzen at the age of 36. The headship of the house passed to his eldest son, Yorimine.
