This is a short entry about Hijikata.
I love how he is like a durian. All pricky outside but actually soft inside. I love him. Happy St. Valentine's Day, everyone!
Specially on this day, I would like to share Okita Souji's Romance. There were rumours about this particular gallant swordsman. Fun Facts Shinsengumi Members
Shinsengumi was an organization under the sponsorship of Aizu Clan during the Bakumatsu Period in Japan. They were consisted of men who strived to become samurai, retainers of Shogun. They were peasants and they did it as a form of patriotism and nationalism to their beloved motherland. They, too, had sides. Here are some fun facts I would love to share When America arrived in Japan in 1853, why did Japan refuse? Why did Japan agree later on to signing the treaty?
What supported the formation of treaty with America? Why was Japan anti-westerners? Shinsengumi was mentioned in Botan -peony-, my novel, but who were they? From the name, 'shinsengumi', an image of an organization might pop up in your mind. Yes, Shinsengumi was an organization.
Shinsengumi was an organization built in 1863 in Kyoto, Japan. In the beginning, it was not called Shinsengumi but Roshigumi, which means 'a group of roshi'. Roshi literally means masterless samurai. As their name states, they were not samurai which was an honorable status that allowed men to serve the Shogun. Men of roshigumi were men of lower castes(merchants, farmers, fishermen.) |
