The story of the 47 Ronin is still a pretty commonly told traditional story. Like Hachiko the dog, it's essentially about complete loyalty, a very big deal for Japanese culture even now.
Right, it's common for familiars, not so common here. Which I why I did a very vague explanation. Other parts of my trip are very lesser known areas for people in the arts, but the japanese were extremely interested in hearing about because for many of then it was a "some day" kind of visit.
