Minamoto no Yoshinaka
Minamoto no Yoshinaka is one of many main characters in the Kamakura period epic, the "Tale of Heike". The story of Yoshinaka and Kanehira is fairly well known in Japan; it is also the subject of the Noh play "Kanehira", in which Kanehira's tormented ghost describes his and Yoshinaka's death, and his wish to go to the other side.
