In the episode of the "[[47 Ronin]], Oishi Kuranosuke Yoshio on the whole appears to come off looking much better than his lord [[Asano Naganori]] from a purely historical standpoint. As Asano left the governing of his province to his vassals, Oishi as his chief retainer must get the credit for running the province in an effective and relatively smooth manner. Oishi seemed to be an intelligent man and a good judge of human nature-his management of the Ako ronin, 46 (actually more, but several dropped out over the course of the plan) other men with varying motivations and degrees of commitment (there is a report prepared by Oishi examined by scholar Henry Smith that rates the degree of commitment each of the plotters had in his estimation, one more piece of evidence that the men involved were not all acting out of loyalty to a failed lord), showed a shrewd ability to plot and implement a plan that required juggling many variables.
