The text states that a Japanese koi fish named Hanako died in 1977 at the age of 226 and had several owners during her lifetime.
The claim that Hanako, a Japanese koi fish, died in 1977 at the age of 226 is widely reported but disputed. Evidence from sources like Wikipedia and Snopes suggests that while Hanako's age was determined by analyzing her scales, the claim remains unproven. The claim about Hanako having several owners is supported by Wikipedia, which mentions multiple owners, including the last one, Komei Koshihara. However, the overall reliability of these claims is moderate due to the lack of definitive evidence.
