The Shaka goichidaiki zue is a meticulously crafted text with carefully illustrated graphics, executed near the end of both Isai and Hokusai's lives. Due to its delicate integration of this‑worldly elements and other‑worldly components, the book gained tremendous sales upon its publication in Edo, Osaka, and Kyoto. Interestingly, in the late 19th century, amidst changing perceptions of Buddha, this book experienced a revival and vigorous promotion, resulting in the reprinting of no fewer than ten editions during Meiji era.
