Date Masamune factoids

The Helmet of Date Masamune was an inspiration for the costume of Darth Vader of the Star Wars trilogy.

In the Thomas Harris's novel Hannibal Rising, Hannibal Lecter's aunt, Lady Murasaki, is said to be a descendant of Date Masamune. It is one of Masamune's swords that Lecter uses to commit his first murder by killing a butcher named Paul Momund for insulting Lady Murasaki because she is Japanese.
