==Aftermath==

Once the attack was done, Yamaguchi Tatsunosuke and Koibuchi Kaname committed suicide at the riverbank at Yaesu, and Arimura Jizaemon and his son Jirô did the same at the Tatsunoguchi gate of the castle. Kurosawa Chûzaburô, Hasuda Ichigorô, Saitô Kenmotsu, and Sano Takenosuke turned themselves in at the mansion of [[Roju|Rôjû]] [[Wakisaka Yasuori]], and Ozeki Washichirô, Mori Gorokurô, Sugiyama Yaichirô, and Moriyama Shigenosuke turned themselves in at the [[Kumamoto Edo mansion|Kumamoto domain mansion]]. Seki Tetsunosuke, Okabe Sanjûrô, Hiroki Matsunosuke, Kaigo Sakinosuke, and Mashiko Kinpachi escaped to various locations and went into hiding. Sano Takenosuke died of his injuries later on the same day of the attack, and Saitô Kenmotsu several days later. Co-conspirators involved in the planning of the attack but not in the attack itself included [[Arimura Yusuke|Arimura Yûsuke]] (elder brother of Jizaemon), [[Kaneko Magojiro|Kaneko Magojirô]], and [[Sato Tetsusaburo|Satô Tetsusaburô]]; once they heard the attack was successful, these three fled Edo for [[Kyoto]], but were apprehended at [[Yokkaichi]] [[post-station]] by Kagoshima officials. Magojirô and Tetsusaburô were brought to [[Fushimi]], while Yûsuke was sent back to Kagoshima.

Those who turned themselves in were all then held in the custody of Kumamoto domain for a time, before being split up and placed into the custody of [[Usuki han|Usuki]], [[Toyama han|Toyama]], [[Muramatsu han|Muramatsu]], [[Ichinoseki han|Ichinoseki]], and [[Zeze han|Zeze domains]]; though Hikone requested that they be turned over to Hikone authorities, the shogunate denied this request, and interrogated those in custody several times.
