The tale of the Forty-Seven Ronin, also known as the Forty-Seven Samurai, the Akō vendetta, the Akō Wandering Samurai (赤穂浪士, Akō rōshi?), or the Genroku Akō Incident (元禄赤穂事件, Genroku akō jiken?), is a prototypical Japanese story. Described by one noted Japan scholar as the country's "national legend" [1], it recounts the most famous case involving the samurai code of honor, bushido. The story tells of a group of samurai who were left leaderless (became ronin) after their master was forced to commit seppuku (ritual suicide) for assaulting a court official named Kira Yoshinaka (whose title was Kōzuke no Suke), who had insulted him. They avenged him by killing the court official after patiently waiting and planning for over a year. In turn, they were themselves forced to commit seppuku — as they had known they would be — for committing the crime of murder. With little embellishment, the true story was popularized in Japanese culture as emblematic of the loyalty, sacrifice, persistence and honor which all good people (but especially samurai) should preserve in their daily lives. The popularity of the almost mythical tale was only enhanced by rapid modernization during the Meiji period of Japanese history, when many people in Japan longed for a return to their cultural roots. <b>Original Squad Lineup</b> OISHI KURANOSUKE YOSHIKATSU YOSHIDA CHUZAEMON KANESUKE HARA SOEMON MOTOTOKI KATAOKA GENGOEMON TAKAFUSA MASE KYUDAIU MASAAKI ONODERA JYUNAI HIDEKAZU HAZAMA KIHEI MITSUNOBU ISOGAI JYUROZEMON MASAHISA HORIBEI YAHYOE AKIZANE CHIKAMATSU KANROKU YUKISHIGE TOMIMORI SUKEEMON MASAYORI <b>Deceased or retired samurai</b> TOMIMORI SUKEEMON MASAYORI HARA SOEMON MOTOTOKI MASE KYUDAIU MASAAKI <b>Awaiting to play for Lord Asano</b> YADA GOROEMON SUKETAKA OISHI SEZAEMON NOBUKIYO OISHI SHIKARA YOSHIKANE HORIBE YASUBEI TAKETSUNE NAKAMURA KANSUKE MASATOKI SUGANOYA HANNOJYO MASATOSHI FUWA KAZUEMON MASATANE KIMURA OKAUEMON SADAYUKI OHIBA SABUROBYOE MITSUTADA OKANO KINUEMON KANEHIDE KAIGA YAZAEMON TOMONOBU OTAKA GENGO TADAO OKAJIMA YASOUEMON TSUNEKI YOSHIDA SAWAUEMON KANESADA TAKEBAYASHI TADAHICHI TAKASHIGE KURAHASHI DENSUKE TAKEYUKI HAZAMA SHINROKURO MITSUKAZE MURAMATSU KIHEI HIDENAO <b>Feats to be remembered</b> Top passer: Hazama Kihei Mitsunobu, 6 completions.
