Active in politics as the Shinsengumi's advisor, he is also a genius swordsman with a master's license in the Hokuto Itto-ryu style. In truth, he harbors dark ambitions. He and Hijikata, who has seen through his true nature, loathe each other, but...

Despite being warned by a blacksmith, Hijikata took a cursed sword (inhabited by the spirit of a shut-in otaku). Once held, the sword cannot be let go, and he has been cursed with an otaku personality—a so-called 'wimp'—that threatens to consume his soul. He has managed to maintain his ego, but at any moment, his other personality 'Tosshi' may emerge. He is usually cool-headed.

She is slightly awkward with strangers but possesses monstrous communication skills. Like Okita, she is a massive sadist. According to her, her fetishes are twisted. She is incredibly airheaded and dense when it comes to romance. Fearless, she won't even make a sound during a test of courage. Somewhat tomboyish.

Occasionally uses Hiroshima, Kansai, or Edokko dialects. <Note: What is the Yodaka Tribe?> The strongest tribe of the underworld, they are half-wolf, half-human hybrids characterized by wolf ears and tails.
