description: "Kira Yoshinaka  was a Japanese kōke. His court title was Kōzuke no suke (上野介). He is famous as the adversary of Asano Naganori in the events of the forty-seven rōnin. Although his name (義央) has been long read as \"Yoshinaka\" especially in dramas and novels, Ekisui Rembeiroku (易水連袂録), written by an anonymous contemporary in 1703, recorded that his name was \"Yoshihisa\"."
