Nansō Satomi Hakkenden
''Nansō Satomi Hakkenden'' ( ja, 南総里見八犬伝, label=shinjitai; ja, 南總里見八犬傳, label=kyūjitai) is a Japanese epic novel (''yomihon'') written and published over twenty-eight years (1814–42) in the Edo period, by Kyokutei Bakin. Set in the Muromachi period, the story follows eight fictional warriors, connected spiritually but born into different families throughout the Kantō region, coming together and fighting as vassals of the Satomi clan; as well as numerous side plots. Bakin researched about the Satomi clan by referring to war tales about the Satomi clan and the Hōjō clan such as ''Satomiki'' (里見記), ''Satomi Kyudaiki'' (里見九代記) and ''Hojo Godaiki'' ( :ja:北条五代記), and completed the story line of Nansō Satomi Hakkenden by referring to them.
