Lord Kira lived, but Lord Asano died, and after his death, his samurai became ronin, samurai without a master. And so began their long plan for revenge on Kira. Their loyalty to their dead master made him famous, and people in Japan remember them to this day. The story of the 47 ronin has been told and retold for 300 years - in plays, novels, and films. A major Hollywood film was made about the 47 ronin in 2013."The most consistent of all series in terms of language control, length, and quality of story."
