เกี่ยวกับ
Ōishi Yoshio (1659–1703), known as Ōishi Kuranosuke, was the chief retainer of Lord Asano Naganori of Ako domain. When Asano was forced to commit seppuku for drawing his sword against Kira Yoshinaka in Edo Castle, Ōishi led 47 loyal retainers (rōnin) in a carefully planned vendetta—waiting nearly two years before killing Kira on the anniversary of their lord's death in December 1702. All 47 were subsequently ordered to commit seppuku.
Their act became the supreme example of bushido loyalty in Japanese culture. They are enshrined at Sengakuji Temple (Tokyo) and Ōishi Jinja (Ako, Hyogo).
