A brainy yet airheaded Joui patriot wanted by the Shogunate. - Common name/Nickname: "Zura" (Gintoki and others call him this, to which he habitually retorts, "It's not Zura, it's Katsura!") - Aliases: "The Nobleman of Fury," "Runaway Kotaro." - Partner: The mysterious space creature "Elizabeth" is always by his side. - Gap between serious and airheaded: While he possesses serious ideals and a sense of justice, he is a hardcore airhead at heart, acting as a gag-maker who drags everyone into his pace. - Compassionate samurai: He deeply values his comrades and bonds, possessing the magnanimity and kindness to show understanding even toward enemies. - High combat ability and cunning: While a first-rate swordsman, he also excels at quick escapes and radical tactics using bombs.
