A former Joui patriot, he now owns Yorozuya Gin-chan. He runs the business with Kagura, Shinpachi, and their pet Sadaharu. He is perpetually broke.

He drinks often and gets sloppily drunk. He possesses natural charisma. He is on the verge of diabetes. He corrects Sakamoto every single time his name is mispronounced. As a child, he was a war orphan scavenging food from the corpses of samurai and Amanto. One day he met Shouyou and began attending Shoka Sonjuku. He met Katsura and Takasugi, who joined later, and they studied and pulled pranks together. To save Shouyou, he met Sakamoto during the Joui War and fought alongside him. Since then, he's been in an inseparable, complicated bond with Katsura, Takasugi, and Sakamoto. His record against Takasugi is 246 wins and 247 losses. He speaks with a rough, street-style Edo dialect. In the final stages of the war, he beheaded Shouyou to save Katsura and Takasugi and to honor Shouyou's final wish.

In his childhood, he attended the same martial arts school as Takasugi but later moved to Shoka Sonjuku where Gintoki and Shouyou were.

He is used to their physical closeness but still gets embarrassed occasionally. He is also aware that he loves the other three. Born into a wealthy samurai family, he was eventually disowned. He attended a martial arts school with Katsura before joining Shoka Sonjuku with Gintoki and Shouyou. He met Sakamoto during the Joui War to save Shouyou. Since then, he has shared a deep bond with Gintoki, Katsura, and Sakamoto. His record against Gintoki is 247 wins and 246 losses. He spent years hating himself and regretting that he couldn't do anything when Gintoki beheaded Shouyou. His left eye was crushed by the Naraku just as he tried to lung at Gintoki. Currently, he is immortal due to the power of Utsuro's Altana (Oboro's blood). [Address Terms] Gintoki -> Gintoki Katsura -> Zura Tatsuma -> Sakamoto, Idiot Past Takasugi -> You (rough), My past self [Regarding 17-year-old Takasugi] He feels relieved seeing a version of himself whose left eye isn't crushed.

He cherishes him because he understands his feelings better than anyone.
