It is a type of work that includes Kabuki, Ningyo-joruri, and kodan. It is a dramatization of the family feud of the Ogasawara clan of the Kokura domain in Buzen. In Kabuki, the play Koimomiji Ogura Shikishi (Dark Autumn Leaves, Ogura Shikishi) by Nakagawa Seisuke was first performed at the Asao Tokusaburo-za Theater in Osaka in 1816 (Bunka 13). It is famous for being a big hit with the second Arashi Kichisaburo. It depicts the exploits of the Inugami Hyogo gang, who are plotting to take over the Ogasawara clan, and the loyal retainer Sasahara Hayato, who is protected by the white fox, and is known as a play that plays a dramatic role with the white fox at its core. In October 1881, Katsunō Susumu and his son Genzō wrote Ogasawara-ryu Yorei no Okunote (Ogasawara-style Proprieties, Loyalty and Filial Piety) based on the storytelling and performed it at the Ebisu-za Theater in Osaka.
