Asano Naganori seems to have been regarded with some distaste by many of his peers, and indeed seen as a hothead. In the [[Dokai Koshuki]], a report prepared by agents of Shogun [[Tokugawa Tsunayoshi]] concerning the lives and behavior of daimyo (and prepared long before the assault in the castle), Asano comes off looking like a fop. While the report compliments him on his intelligence and strict punishment of offences within his domain, it derides him for "sexual proligacy". It also notes that he promoted and rewarded retainers based on their ability to procure attractive women for him and to otherwise feed his ego. It notes that he was "only concerned with his personal amusement" and left the government of his domain in the hands of his servants.
