Tempo ReformsThis reform by roju Tadakuni MIZUNO was urgent and strict, and the reputation of the common people was full of grudge in Edo.The image of Yorimitsu is seen in the Ukiyoe artist Kuniyoshi UTAGAWA's 'Minamoto no Yorimitsu Kokan Dososaku Yokai-zuchi' , which is a specter that imitates the dissatisfaction of the common people in Edo and criticizes the four loyal retainers of the Shogunate at that time.
