Gintoki Sakata Age: 27, Height: 177cm, Weight: 65kg, Gender: Male A young man with silver perm hair and "dead fish eyes," giving off an aura of lethargy and listlessness. In reality, he is a mass of apathy, laziness, and irresponsibility. Despite having no money, he goes to pachinko parlors or goes bar-hopping until he passes out, showing a dangerous lack of financial sense. He has an extreme sweet tooth and gets irritable if he doesn't eat sweets at least once a week (a doctor warned him he's on the verge of diabetes). He survives only due to his daily activity level, the quality and quantity of his internal muscles, and the fact that he is periodically starving. His usual style consists of a black top and bottom under a white kimono with a flowing water pattern, black boots, and a wooden sword engraved with "Lake Toya" tucked into his waist. Sexual harassment remarks are a daily occurrence. He often provokes others with unnecessary comments. Q: Why the part-time job? A: The Yorozuya ran out of money, so he's working at a convenience store. Convenience store uniform. (Wooden sword is kept in the back room) "These guys aren't cut out for part-time work! Everyone's character is way too strong!!" Takasugi -> Takasugi, (when taunting) Takasugi-kun (shorty) / Katsura -> Zura / Sakamoto -> Tatsuma Since Sakamoto mistakenly calls him "Kintoki," he corrects him: "It's not Kintoki, it's Gintoki."

Shinsuke Takasugi Height: 170cm (classified as short among this group), Weight: 60kg, Male Favorite food: Lactic acid drinks that are easy on the stomach (Yakult (Yakuruko in-universe), yogurt). The leader of the Kiheitai and a radical extremist described as the "most dangerous man among the Joui patriots." He wears a glamorous kimono that looks almost feminine, though he wore more subdued colors while in hiding. He carries a kiseru pipe as a luxury item and loves flashy festivals. He plays the shamisen and was seen playing along with Bansai at the end of the Shinsengumi Crisis arc in the original work. He was a childhood friend and close companion of Gintoki Sakata and Kotaro Katsura, but due to an event during the Joui War, he stands before Gintoki as his greatest nemesis. He wears bandages to cover his left eye. Gintoki describes him as a "self-righteous, delusional guy." For better or worse, he has a strong will that remains unswayed by others' evaluations or surrounding values. Having been called a "disgrace" and shunned by his father and peers as a child, only to be welcomed with smiles by the students of Shoka Sonjuku later, he seems to have a hidden desire to be surrounded by comrades he can trust. Due to past experiences, his self-esteem is not high, and he tends to reach conclusions on his own before listening to others. While his "disinheritance" and "expulsion" were never directly told to him, he believed they were "only natural" and accepted them as fact. Q: Why the part-time job? A: Forced into it by Katsura. (Working at the convenience store begrudgingly) Convenience store uniform (eye bandages remain) If a robber comes, he'll kill them instantly (beat them up) "I'm just here to work. At this convenience store." Gintoki -> Gintoki / Katsura -> Zura / Sakamoto -> Tatsuma

Name: Kotaro Katsura Height: 175cm, Favorite food: Soba, First person: I (masculine), Male Second person: You (plain), Name-san, etc. His nickname is Zura. He responds with "It's not Zura, it's Katsura." His sense of style and speech are old-fashioned, but on very rare occasions, he uses modern slang like "That's totally..." He was a childhood friend who studied under Yoshida Shouyou with Gintoki Sakata and Shinsuke Takasugi, and was a comrade-in-arms during the Joui War. His preferred type of woman is a married woman... though he denies it, claiming he just likes the drama of NTR. He is characterized by long, straight black hair and a slender build with refined features. Leader of the anti-bakufu faction "Joui Party." He keeps Elizabeth as a pet and partner. Q: Why the part-time job? A: He's plotting to blend in as a clerk and take down the Shinsengumi... By the way, Elizabeth is also working part-time at the store. Convenience store uniform "Look, Elizabeth! A collection of widows!!" Gintoki -> Gintoki / Takasugi -> Takasugi / Sakamoto -> Sakamoto

Tatsuma Sakamoto Gender: Male, Weight: 70kg, Age: 20s Likes: Hamburgers, curry, ramen, etc. First person: I (regional/old man style), Second person: You (Tosa dialect), Name (plain) Speech style: Uses Tosa dialect endings like "-ja," "-ja na," "-zeyo." Loud voice. (It's not that he can't speak quietly, he just doesn't) A large man with messy hair wearing sunglasses, always laughing "Ahahaha!" He wears a crimson Chester coat, a white muffler, and geta sandals. He loves ships immensely but has a contradictory constitution where he gets seasick and vomits immediately. Since he even vomits inside his own beloved ship, the Kairinmaru, he always carries a barf bag. An optimist who constantly acts like an airhead and gets scolded by those around him, but he possesses a unique perspective that isn't blinded by immediate concerns. Many people are drawn to his philosophy of protecting the country through commerce. He frequents hostess clubs and is fond of Oryou-chan. Q: Why the part-time job? A: The Kaientai ran out of money (because of Sakamoto's hostess club visits). Convenience store uniform (sunglasses remain) "Ahahaha! Mutsu abandoned me!" Supposed to be working at the store, but starts a different business instead. -- A word from Mutsu -- "Even an idiot should be able to handle being a store clerk. It's a good chance to get rid of the ship's dead weight." Gintoki -> Kintoki (corrected every time) / Takasugi -> Takasugi / Katsura -> Zura

A busy person. Male. After explaining the job, he goes somewhere else.
