==Shinsengumi==<br />
[[Image:Saitou hajime1.jpg|frame|left|Saitô Hajime]]<br />
Saitô Hajime was born as a son of [[Gokenin]] in [[Edo]]. <br />
He killed a [[Hatamoto]] when he was around 18 and he had to flee Edo.<br />
He joined the [[Mibu Roshigumi]] in Kyoto in [[1863]].<br />
In [[1865]], he became captain of the 3rd unit of the [[Shinsengumi]].<br />
When [[Ito Kashitaro|Itô Kashitarô's]] group formed the [[Goryo Eji|Goryô Eji]], Saito joined them as a spy and discovered their plan of assassination of [[Kondo Isami|Kondô Isami]] which resulted in Ito Kashitaro's assassination by the Shinsengumi ([[Incident at Aburano Koji]]).<br />
<br />
==Boshin War==<br />
He participated in the [[Battle of Toba-Fushimi]], and the [[Battle of Koshu-Katsunuma]]. <br />
Then he went to [[Aizu]] with several members.<br />
(Kondô Isami and other members went to Nagareyama)<br />
He was named the commander of the Shinsengumi instead of [[Hijikata Toshizo]] who was wounded.<br />
After they lost the [[Battle of Bonari pass]], Hijikata decided to<br />
go north to join [[Enomoto Takeaki|Enomoto Takeaki's]] Bakufu troops.<br />
According to Saitô Hajime's grandson, Saito said "The Shinsengumi has benefitted greatly from Lord [[Matsudaira Katamori]].<br />
I refuse to leave Aizu. I will die with them rather than leave."<br />
Saitô and around 20 other members stayed in Aizu and held a siege in Nyoraidô, but were defeated.<br />
In September, [[1868]], Aizu surrendered.<br />
Aizu samurai and families were expeled to [[Tonami han|Tonami]].<br />
<br />
==Meiji==<br />
Saito married [[Takagi Tokio]] in Tonami, sponsered by former Lord Matsudaira Katamori, the former Aizu han [[Karo|Karô]] [[Yamakawa Hiroshi]] and [[Sagawa Kanbei]]. (Saito had a prior marriage with ''[[Shinoda Yaso]]'' but details are unknown)<br />
Saito was given the new name '''Fujita Goro''' by Matsudaira Katamori.<br />
Later they moved to Tokyo, where Goro was hired by the Police department ([[1872]]).<br />
In [[1877]], he was sent to [[Kyushu]] ([[Seinan War]]) as a member of the [[Batto tai|Battô tai]] with many other former Aizu han samurai. It was compared to a "revenge" of the [[Boshin war]].<br />
In [[1891]],he retired from the Police and worked at schools until [[1909]].<br />
In [[1915]] he died of stomach ulcer.<br />
<br />
According to Fujita Goro's grandchild Fujita Minoru, sometimes Goro was assaulted by strangers who seemed to be the surviving members of the Goryo Eji after the [[Meiji restoration]].<br />
Unlike [[Nagakura Shinpachi]], Goro didn't talk about the Shinsengumi very much.<br />
<br />
==Kenjutsu==<br />
Saito is believed to have learned [[Mugai Ryu]] and [[Itto Ryu]].<br />

<br />
::For the time being, I think that we should leave "other names" out instead. <br />
<br />
::Other than Serizawa's full name, he could be referred as "Serizawa Kamo" or "Serizawa Kamo Mitsumoto".

[[User:Seven|Seven]] 23:38, 8 February 2007 (PST)<br />
<br />
:Well, those ''are'' "other names he was known by/referred to as", so it seems to fit the idea of another name. I'm not sure what the contention is here. It seems to fit there at least temporarily until we find some sort of consensus. If we knew what that type of name was called, we could add an additional line for it. I eventually want to list everyone's names under the correct title (imina, nanori, etc), but for now, until I sort that all out I've just been putting it under "other names". --[[User:Shogun|Kitsuno]] 00:38, 9 February 2007 (PST)<br />
<br />
::My point is that neither "Taira no Mitsumoto" or "Serizawa Mitsumoto" is like "Shimomura Tsuguji" at all. It's not a good idea to list them together under "other names" (in my opinion.)

<br />
==Mito==<br />
The Serizawa family were [[Goshi|Gôshi]] of Seizawa village in [[Hitachi province]].<br />
Serizawa Mistumoto was adopted into the Shimomura family and his name was changed to Shimomura Tsuguji.<br />
Tsuguji was jailed for involvement in the "Tamatsukurigumi" which was a [[Sonno|Sonnô]][[Joi|Jôi]] group in [[Mito han]], however he was released in [[1862]] and then he changed name to "Serizawa Kamo".<br />
==Mibu Rôshigumi==<br />
Serizawa joined the [[Roshigumi|Rôshigumi]] in [[Edo]] in [[1864]] and moved to [[Kyoto]].<br />
He and [[Kondo Isami|Kondô Isami]] protested against [[Kiyokawa Hachiro|Kiyokawa Hachirô]] and decided to stay in Kyoto.<br />
The 24 [[Ronin]] who stayed in Kyoto called themselves the [[Mibu Roshigumi|Mibu Rôshigumi]] and they were employed by [[Aizu han]].<br />
However, Serizawa's violent acts became a big problem in Kyoto, so Aizu han secretly ordered Kondo to assassinate Serizawa.<br />
In [[1863]], [[Hijikata Toshizo|Hijikata Toshizô]], [[Okita Soji|Okita Sôji]], [[Harada Sanosuke]], and [[Yamanami Keisuke]] stormed into [[Yagi Gennojo|Yagi Gennojô's]] house and killed Serizawa and [[Hirayama Goro|Hirayama Gorô]]. (There are alternative theories regarding the people involved in Serizawa's assassination.) Their graves are in [[Mibu temple]] Kyoto.<br />

<br />
Basically I looked all the books except "Hijikata Toshizo"(deleted). <br />
And I used google and Amazon.co.jp for "Fiction" section. Is that OK? --[[User:Shikisoku|Shikisoku]] 02:19, 4 November 2006 (PST)<br />

:In this case, I was referring to your(?) "Okita Soji died of Tuberculosis just a month after Kondo's death."<br />
<br />
:In 1868, April was the intercalary month. Kondou died on 05/17/1868 (04/25 lunar calendar) and Okita died on 07/19/1868 (05/30 lunar calendar).<br />

== Plans to edit sections 1-3 of the Shinsengumi page ==<br />
<br />
All, on Saturday afternoon (Jan 28), while killing time at Narita before my flight, I plan to start editing sections 1-3 of the Shinsengumi page. My edits will not do anything to the excellent information that has been posted unless I find issue with anything. I intend to add a little stylistic flair to the prose. While my Obenjo persona clowns around quite a bit on the forum, I assure alll taht there will be a no-nonsense approach to my contributions as I view the SA Wiki as a serious academic under-taking that reflects on all of us.<br />
<br />
I plan to have my first round of edits completed on Sunday (Jan 29) as I will basically have a free day. If I do add any new factual data or make any edits to the excellent factual details that have already been posted, a list of these changes will be summarized in the change box.<br />
<br />
Please keep an eye on the Shinsengumi page and give me CONSTRUCTIVE feedback.<br />
<br />
Thanks,<br />

<br />
:Like I mentioned in the PM, I think it would serve better as the main article for the actual Roshigumi entry, and just shorten it up as as a basic intro for the shinsengumi article. Good stuff! --[[User:Shogun|Kitsuno]] 10:44, 31 January 2007 (PST)<br />
<br />
<br />
:Thank you Mr Obenjo! If my article doesn't match with your article, you can modify it.--[[User:Shikisoku|Shikisoku]] 03:57, 1 February 2007 (PST)<br />
<br />
<br />
==Formal name==<br />
This issue is not only Shinsengumi category. Seven just added full name on [[Serizawa Kamo]]. I would like to say it's formal name.(If any better translation please post here)<br />
The name as a court noble.(朝臣としての正式な名のり)<br />
*From [[Serizawa Kamo]]"(His full name was Serizawa Kamo Taira no Mitsumoto.) "<br />
*From J-wiki:「芹沢氏は常陸国芹沢村(現茨城県行方市)の芹沢城主の流れを汲む上席郷士であり、平姓で、平氏の中の板東平氏の一族で、常陸平氏の大掾氏一族の平清幹、平成幹の後裔。諱は光幹であり、芹沢鴨の朝臣としての正式な名のりは「平光幹(たいら・の・みつもと)」。」<br />
The formal names are usually "Taira no something" "Fujiwara no something" "Minamoto no something".<br />
For example, Oda Nobunaga's formal name was Taira no Nobunaga.<br />
Tokugawa Ieyasu was Fujiwara no Ieyasu but he changed to Minamoto no Ieyasu later.<br />
But as we know, the names were rarely used on historical records and history books.<br />
So I have avoided to add the names.<br />
If we decide to add the names, small change may be needed to The official biography format.<br />
* ''Born: ''<br />
* ''Died: ''<br />
* ''Titles: ''<br />
* ''Childhood Name: Kipposhi''<br />
* ''Formal Name''<br />
* ''Japanese:''<br />
<br />
::I know that the formal names are usually "Taira no something", "Fujiwara no something", "Minamoto no something"...etc. Serizawa Kamo's formal name was ''Taira no Mitsumoto'' and his full name was ''Serizawa Kamo Taira no Mitsumoto''. Since some people get confused and mistake ''Taira no Mitsumoto'' for his former name or his alias, I've added his full name. [[User:Seven|Seven]] 20:12, 1 February 2007 (PST)<br />
<br />
:If the "Formal name" is listed as such (and it was uncommon to call someone Serizawa Kamo Taira no Mitsumoto") than it probably should go in the data section on the top. Japanese naming conventions are just plain outright confusing with childhood names, adult names, buddhist names, this name, that name, so I don't think there is any reason to treat the formal name any differently (i.e. put it in a "formal name" section in the top data section.) We've been using the "other names" as a catch all, but eventually I want to seperate out the different types of other names and list them individually on the data section, so this is a good way to start that. Basically, like the dates and uruu month issue, we'll just need an article and/or a link to explain it. Keeping everything standard and having links to explanations are better than trying to explain something in every article. So I think we should treat it the way we do the uruu months, just put them in as "usual", and when we get an article/description for the concept of "formal names", I'll link "formal name" to the applicable article. Seems the best way to handle it to me. --[[User:Shogun|Kitsuno]] 20:28, 1 February 2007 (PST)<br />
<br />
<br />
We may need a page for "Names" to explain all those names. Anyway, I am going to post this to S-A forum to let everybody know.--[[User:Shikisoku|Shikisoku]] 21:46, 1 February 2007 (PST)<br />
<br />
:We do need a page - I think Bethetsu is working one up - she's the expert on the various names. --[[User:Shogun|Kitsuno]] 21:52, 1 February 2007 (PST)<br />
<br />
::It was uncommon to ''call'' someone by his full name. Though it was fairly common to write someone's full name in some formal documents.

::I know that the formal names are usually "Taira no something", "Fujiwara no something", "Minamoto no something"...etc. Serizawa Kamo's formal name was ''Taira no Mitsumoto'' and his full name was ''Serizawa Kamo Taira no Mitsumoto''. Since some people get confused and mistake ''Taira no Mitsumoto'' for his former name or his alias, I've added his full name.

<br />
==Mito==<br />
The Serizawa family were [[Goshi|Gôshi]] of Seizawa village in [[Hitachi province]].<br />
Serizawa Mistumoto was adopted into the Shimomura family and his name was changed to Shimomura Tsuguji.<br />
Tsuguji was jailed for involvement in the "Tamatsukurigumi" which was a [[Sonno|Sonnô]][[Joi|Jôi]] group in [[Mito han]], however he was released in [[1862]] and then he changed name to "Serizawa Kamo". (His full name was ''Serizawa Kamo Taira no Mitsumoto''.)<br />
<br />
==Mibu Rôshigumi==<br />
Serizawa joined the [[Roshigumi|Rôshigumi]] in [[Edo]] in [[1864]] and moved to [[Kyoto]].<br />
He and [[Kondo Isami|Kondô Isami]] protested against [[Kiyokawa Hachiro|Kiyokawa Hachirô]] and decided to stay in Kyoto.<br />
The 24 [[Ronin]] who stayed in Kyoto called themselves the [[Mibu Roshigumi|Mibu Rôshigumi]] and they were employed by [[Aizu han]].<br />
However, Serizawa's violent acts became a big problem in Kyoto, so Aizu han secretly ordered Kondo to assassinate Serizawa.<br />
In [[1863]], [[Hijikata Toshizo|Hijikata Toshizô]], [[Okita Soji|Okita Sôji]], [[Harada Sanosuke]], and [[Yamanami Keisuke]] stormed into [[Yagi Gennojo|Yagi Gennojô's]] house and killed Serizawa and [[Hirayama Goro|Hirayama Gorô]]. (There are alternative theories regarding the people involved in Serizawa's assassination.) Their graves are in [[Mibu temple]] Kyoto.<br />

==Shieikan==<br />
<br />
Okita Sôji was born the son of a lower [[Shirakawa han]] Samurai. He was raised by his oldest sister Mitsu and her husband after his father died.<br />
When he was around 10, he became pupil of [[Kondo Shusuke|Kondo Shusuke's]] [[Shieikan]], the [[Tennen Rishin Ryu]] dojo.<br />
One of the famous episodes of this Kenjutsu genius is when he was just 12, he defeated a Kenjutsu teacher of Shirakawa han.<br />
Sôji became head coach of Shieikan when he was around 19.<br />
<br />
[[1863]], he joined [[Roshigumi|Rôshigumi]] along with other Shieikan members.<br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
==Shinsengumi==<br />
Sôji was involved in the assassination of [[Tonouchi Yoshio]] and [[Serizawa Kamo]].<br />
During the [[Ikedaya Affair]], he was one of 4 members who raided the inside of the Ikedaya.<br />
During the 2 hour battle, Sôji fought on the 2nd floor almost alone but <br />
fell down unconscious because of either Anemia or heat.<br />
(Recent research indicates that this was not a symptom of tuberculosis)<br />
Many people who witnessed the Shinsengumi in action described Sôji as <br />
one of the best Swordman in the Shinsengumi.<br />
On the other hand, [[Yagi Tamesaburo]] told [[Shimozawa Kan]] in early Showa period "Soji was always joking" and, "He used to play with neighboring children."<br />
<br />
==Tuberculosis==<br />
Soji became seriously ill in fall of [[1867]].<br />
He stayed at [[Osaka castle]] with the wounded [[Kondo Isami]] during the <br />
[[Battle of Toba-Fushimi]] in January [[1868]].<br />
In March, he visited [[Sato Hikogoro]] in Hino as a member of the [[Koyo Chinbutai]] <br />
but had to return to [[Edo]] because of his illness.<br />
He died 2 months after Kondo's death.<br />
His grave is in Keisho-ji, Tokyo.<br />
(Keisho-ji allows visitors for Soji's grave only once a year)<br />

<hr />
<div>Japanese:新選組 or 新撰組<br />
<br />
The Shinsengumi was a special police force in [[Kyoto]], which was organized by the [[Bakufu]] during the [[Bakumatsu period]] .<br />
<br />
==Roshigumi==<br />
In [[1863]], the [[Bakufu]] recruited [[Ronin]] to guard the [[Shogun]] [[Tokugawa Iemochi|Iemochi]] on the occasion of a visit to [[Kyoto]].<br />
It was planned by [[Kiyokawa Hachiro]] of [[Shonai han]].<br />
Around 200 Ronin formed the [[Roshigumi]], <br />
they headed to Kyoto in Feburuary [[1863]]. <br />
The supervisors were [[Matsudaira Chikaranosuke]], [[Udono Kyuo]], [[Kubota Shigekatsu]], [[Yamaoka Tesshu]], [[Nakajo Kinnosuke]], [[Sasaki Tadasaburo]].<br />
Right after they arrived at Kyoto, Kiyokawa's conspiracy was revealed.<br />
The Roshigumi decided to return Edo except [[Kondo Isami|Kondo Isami's]] [[Shieikan]]<br />
and [[Serizawa Kamo|Serizawa Kamo's]] Mito group.<br />
Some other members also remained with them in Mibu village, Kyoto.<br />
In March, They named [[Mibu Roshigumi]].<br />
The Mibu Roshigumi was hired by [[Aizu han]] [[the Military Commissioner of Kyoto]]<br />
In August, they were dispatched for the [[Political change on August 18]].<br />
Lord [[Matsudaura Katamori]] evaluated their job and gave them new name Shinsengumi.<br />
(Some sources say the name was given by [[Buku Denso]])<br />
<br />
==Shinsengumi==<br />
September [[1863]], Shieikan group purged Mito group to control over Shinsengumi.<br />
In [[1864]] Shinsengumi raided [[Ikedaya Affair|Ikedaya]] where [[Sonjo Roshi]] <br />
were planning to burn [[Kyoto]].<br />
After following [[Kinmon rebellion]] , Shinsengumi recruited more than 200 new members <br />
with the prize money given by the Imperial court, Bakufu and Aizu han.<br />
<br />
The new members included [[Ito Kashitaro]] group who Kondo recruited in Edo.<br />
The Shinsengumi headquarter moved to [[Nishi Hongan-ji]] from Mibu.<br />
[[1867]] shortly after Shinsengumi were officialy hired as [[Bakushin]] ,<br />
Ito Kashitaro group were separated and formed [[Goryo Eji]].<br />
They were assassinated.([[Incident at Aburano Koji]])<br />
<br />
==Boshin War==<br />
January [[1868]] , [[Boshin war]] was started with <br />
the [[Battle of Toba-Fushimi]] and both [[Inoue Genzaburo]] and [[Yamazaki Susumu]] were killed.<br />
Shinsengumi and other Bakufu troops flighted to Edo with battleship [[Fujisan Maru]] .<br />
Shinsengumi was reorganized to [[Koyo Chinbutai]].<br />
The Koyo Chinbutai headed to take over [[Kofu castle]], but lost the [[Battle of Koshu-Katsunuma]].<br />
When they returned to Edo, [[Nagakura Shinpachi]] and [[Harada Sanosuke]]<br />
left the Koyo Chinbutai and formed [[Seikyotai]].<br />
Kondo was captured in [[Nagareyama]] three weeks later and executed at [[Itabashi]]. Harada died from injuries received during the [[Battle of Ueno]]. Two weeks later, [[Okita Soji]] died of Tuberculosis.<br />
[[Hijikata Toshizo]] was wounded at the [[Battle of Utsunomiya castle]],<br />
[[Saito Hajime]] then became the commander of the Aizu Shinsengumi during the [[Battle of Aizu]] and he decided to remain with the Aizu samurai when Hijikata decided to go to Hakodate.<br />
In May [[1869]] Hijikata was shot and killed at the [[Battle of Hakodate]] and the last Shinsengumi commander [[Soma Kazue]] surrendered.<br />
He was exiled to Niijima island later.<br />

#Leaving the Shinsengumi.<br />
#Raising money privately.<br />
#Taking part in litigations.<br />
#Engaging in private fights.<br />
#Anybody who breaks the rules will be ordered to commit seppuku.<br />
<br />
==Uniform==<br />
The famous blue [[Haori]] was designed from [[Chushingura]].<br />

But this Haori was used only for a year.<br />

<br />
The source of the photograph is a mystery. <br />
As far as I know, there is no books that mention the photograph as Soji.<br />
I have asked to a Japanese web site that listed the photograph, <br />
but they didn't even know where that came from.--[[User:Shikisoku|Shikisoku]] 16:32, 16 January 2007 (PST)<br />
<br />
:::This photo is the cover of a book published in 1977. According to the book, the photo was found among Hijikata's belongings. Many historians believe it isn't Okita because the family crest on this man's clothes isn't the Okita family's. [[User:Seven|Seven]] 22:25, 16 January 2007 (PST)<br />

Not page references, basically if you add info, we want to get sources - for example wikipedia, which hardly ever cites its sources, is a pile of useless crap, so I want to make this stand far above the generally horrible wicrapedia. Basically, all that means is just put the book you get the info from in the "references" section on any given article. The "research books" section is just that, a list of research books, but they have nothing to do with the writing of the article - the "references" section does. So just add whatever book(s) you use to the references section when you add info. Quick and easy and keeps this better than Wicrapedia - it keeps it verifiable and useful. Obviously if you are just cleaning up a draft or whatever, you don't need to list a source. --[[User:Shogun|Kitsuno]] 20:39, 12 January 2007 (PST)</div>Sevenhttp://samurai-archives.com/w/index.php?title=Talk:Okita_Soji&diff=9837Talk:Okita Soji2007-01-17T06:25:24Z<p>Seven: /* Photo */ the source of the photograph</p>

:It's good to have someone who has a solid grap of editing a wiki! Everything is pretty much the same as wikipedia with the exception that we try to cite all our sources to set us apart from them, and that we are far, far more strict on what goes up out of necessity in order to keep this a useful historical resource that can be referred to for further research. I tend to delete many things that WP would blithely leave up. Also, the articles tagged as a "draft" basically need a going-over for grammar and readability, so feel free to fix those up as you come across them. Thanks for the help! --[[User:Shogun|Kitsuno]] 22:26, 12 January 2007 (PST)<br />

<br />
<br />
Todo Heisuke claimed to be the illegitimate child of [[Todo Takayuki]] of [[Tsu han]], [[Ise province|Ise]], but the truth is unclear.<br />
He learned [[Hokushin Itto Ryu]] in Edo where he met [[Kondo Isami]].<br />
His forehead was injured during the [[Ikedaya incident]].<br />
In late [[1864]], he recruited [[Ito Kashitaro]] and his pupils in Edo.<br />
When he returned to [[Kyoto]] in [[1865]], he was shocked that <br />
[[Yamanami Keisuke]] had comitted [[Seppuku]] which might have effected Todo's decision to leave the [[Shinsengumi]].<br />
In [[1867]], Ito Kashitaro formed [[Goryo Eji]] and Todo joined.<br />
They were assassinated in November ([[Incident at Aburano Koji]]). Kondo had wished to spare Todo's life. However, Todo was killed by a new member, Miura <br />
Tsunesaburo, whom did not know the circumstances. <br />
<br />
==Todo Heisuke's Sword==<br />
* ''[[Kaneshige|Kazusanosuke Kaneshige]]'' 上総介兼重<br />
<br />
The sword was too expensive for a [[Ronin]] to have so this credence to Heisuke's claim that he might have been an illegitimate child of Todo Takayuki.<br />

* ''Died: ?''<br />
* ''Japanese'':市村鉄之助 (Ichimura Tetsunosuke)<br />
<br />
Born in 1854, Ichimura Tetsunosuke was the third son of Ichimura Hanemoki, a samurai from Ogaki-han. Ichimura Tetsunosuke joined the [[Shinsengumi]] with his older brother [[Ichimura Tatsunosuke]] in [[1867]].<br />
After the [[Battle of Koshu-Katsunuma]], Tatsunosuke deserted from the [[Koyo Chinbutai]] (the renamed Shinsengumi) but Tetsunosuke stayed.<br />
During the [[Battle of Hakodate]], [[Hijikata Toshizo]] ordered Tetsunosuke to escape from there and take his photograph,hair and death poem to [[Sato Hikogoro]] in Hino.<br />
About 2 months after Hijikata's death, Tetsunosuke arrived at Sato's house and stayed there for 3 years.<br />
Then he returned to his home in Ogaki.<br />
<br />
There are a few theories in regard of Ichimura Tetsunosuke's death date, while many believe that Ichimura joined Saigo Takamori's army and died during the Satsuma Rebellion in 1877, some believe that he died from an illness in 1873. In conclusion, the date of his death is uncertain.<br />

<br />
The Shinsengumi was a special police force in [[Kyoto]], which was organized by the [[Bakufu]] during the [[Bakumatsu period]] .<br />
<br />
==Roshigumi==<br />
In [[1862]], the [[Bakufu]] recruited [[Ronin]] to guard the [[Shogun]] [[Tokugawa Iemochi|Iemochi]] on the occasion of a visit to [[Kyoto]].<br />
It was planned by [[Kiyokawa Hachiro]] of [[Shonai han]].<br />
Around 200 Ronin formed the [[Roshigumi]], <br />
they headed to Kyoto in Feburuary [[1863]]. <br />
The supervisors were [[Matsudaira Chikaranosuke]], [[Udono Kyuo]], [[Kubota Shigekatsu]], [[Yamaoka Tesshu]], [[Nakajo Kinnosuke]], [[Sasaki Tadasaburo]].<br />
Right after they arrived at Kyoto, Kiyokawa's conspiracy was revealed.<br />
The Roshigumi decided to return Edo except [[Kondo Isami|Kondo Isami's]] [[Shieikan]]<br />
and [[Serizawa Kamo|Serizawa Kamo's]] Mito group.<br />
Some other members also remained with them in Mibu village, Kyoto.<br />
In March, They named [[Mibu Roshigumi]].<br />
The Mibu Roshigumi was hired by [[Aizu han]] [[the Military Commissioner of Kyoto]]<br />
In August, they were dispatched for the [[Political change on August 18]].<br />
Lord [[Matsudaura Katamori]] evaluated their job and gave them new name Shinsengumi.<br />
(Some sources say the name was given by [[Buku Denso]])<br />
<br />
==Shinsengumi==<br />
September [[1863]], Shieikan group purged Mito group to control over Shinsengumi.<br />
In [[1864]] Shinsengumi raided [[Ikedaya Affair|Ikedaya]] where [[Sonjo Roshi]] <br />
were planning to burn [[Kyoto]].<br />
After following [[Kinmon rebellion]] , Shinsengumi recruited more than 200 new members <br />
with the prize money given by the Imperial court, Bakufu and Aizu han.<br />
<br />
The new members included [[Ito Kashitaro]] group who Kondo recruited in Edo.<br />
The Shinsengumi headquarter moved to [[Nishi Hongan-ji]] from Mibu.<br />
[[1867]] shortly after Shinsengumi were officialy hired as [[Bakushin]] ,<br />
Ito Kashitaro group were separated and formed [[Goryo Eji]].<br />
They were assassinated.([[Incident at Aburano Koji]])<br />
<br />
==Boshin War==<br />
January [[1868]] , [[Boshin war]] was started with <br />
the [[Battle of Toba-Fushimi]] and both [[Inoue Genzaburo]] and [[Yamazaki Susumu]] were killed.<br />
Shinsengumi and other Bakufu troops flighted to Edo with battleship [[Fujisan Maru]] .<br />
Shinsengumi was reorganized to [[Koyo Chinbutai]].<br />
The Koyo Chinbutai headed to take over [[Kofu castle]], but lost the [[Battle of Koshu-Katsunuma]].<br />
When they returned to Edo, [[Nagakura Shinpachi]] and [[Harada Sanosuke]]<br />
left the Koyo Chinbutai and formed [[Seikyotai]].<br />
Kondo was captured in [[Nagareyama]] three weeks later and executed at [[Itabashi]]. Harada died from injuries received during the [[Battle of Ueno]]. Two weeks later, [[Okita Soji]] died of Tuberculosis.<br />
[[Hijikata Toshizo]] was wounded at the [[Battle of Utsunomiya castle]],<br />
[[Saito Hajime]] then became the commander of the Aizu Shinsengumi during the [[Battle of Aizu]] and he decided to remain with the Aizu samurai when Hijikata decided to go to Hakodate.<br />
In May [[1869]] Hijikata was shot and killed at the [[Battle of Hakodate]] and the last Shinsengumi commander [[Soma Kazue]] surrendered.<br />
He was exiled to Niijima island later.<br />

<br />
The Shinsengumi was a special police force in [[Kyoto]], which was organized by the [[Bakufu]] during the [[Bakumatsu period]] .<br />
<br />
==Roshigumi==<br />
In [[1862]], the [[Bakufu]] recruited [[Ronin]] to guard the [[Shogun]] [[Tokugawa Iemochi|Iemochi]] on the occasion of a visit to [[Kyoto]].<br />
It was planned by [[Kiyokawa Hachiro]] of [[Shonai han]].<br />
Around 200 Ronin formed the [[Roshigumi]], <br />
they headed to Kyoto in Feburuary [[1863]]. <br />
The supervisors were [[Matsudaira Chikaranosuke]], [[Udono Kyuo]], [[Kubota Shigekatsu]], [[Yamaoka Tesshu]], [[Nakajo Kinnosuke]], [[Sasaki Tadasaburo]].<br />
Right after they arrived at Kyoto, Kiyokawa's conspiracy was revealed.<br />
The Roshigumi decided to return Edo except [[Kondo Isami|Kondo Isami's]] [[Shieikan]]<br />
and [[Serizawa Kamo|Serizawa Kamo's]] Mito group.<br />
Some other members also remained with them in Mibu village, Kyoto.<br />
In March, They named [[Mibu Roshigumi]].<br />
The Mibu Roshigumi was hired by [[Aizu han]] [[the Military Commissioner of Kyoto]]<br />
In August, they were dispatched for the [[Political change on August 18]].<br />
Lord [[Matsudaura Katamori]] evaluated their job and gave them new name Shinsengumi.<br />
(Some sources say the name was given by [[Buku Denso]])<br />
<br />
==Shinsengumi==<br />
September [[1863]], Shieikan group purged Mito group to control over Shinsengumi.<br />
In [[1864]] Shinsengumi raided [[Ikedaya Affair|Ikedaya]] where [[Sonjo Roshi]] <br />
were planning to burn [[Kyoto]].<br />
After following [[Kinmon rebellion]] , Shinsengumi recruited more than 200 new members <br />
with the prize money given by the Imperial court, Bakufu and Aizu han.<br />
<br />
The new members included [[Ito Kashitaro]] group who Kondo recruited in Edo.<br />
The Shinsengumi headquarter moved to [[Nishi Hongan-ji]] from Mibu.<br />
[[1867]] shortly after Shinsengumi were officialy hired as [[Bakushin]] ,<br />
Ito Kashitaro group were separated and formed [[Goryo Eji]].<br />
They were assassinated.([[Incident at Aburano Koji]])<br />
<br />
==Boshin War==<br />
January [[1868]] , [[Boshin war]] was started with <br />
the [[Battle of Toba-Fushimi]].<br />
Shinsengumi and other Bakufu troops flighted to Edo with battleship [[Fujisan Maru]] .<br />
Shinsengumi was reorganized to [[Koyo Chinbutai]].<br />
The Koyo Chinbutai headed to take over [[Kofu castle]], but lost the [[Battle of Koshu-Katsunuma]].<br />
When they returned to Edo, [[Nagakura Shinpachi]] and [[Harada Sanosuke]]<br />
left the Koyochinbutai (the renamed Shinsengumi) after the Battle of Koshu and formed [[Seikyotai]].<br />
Kondo was captured in [[Nagareyama]] and executed at [[Itabashi]]. Harada died from injuries received during the Battle of Ueno. Two weeks later, [[Okita Soji]] died of Tuberculosis.<br />
[[Hijikata Toshizo]] was wounded at the [[Battle of Utsunomiya castle]] ,<br />
[[Saito Hajime]] became commander of Shinsengumi during the [[Battle of Aizu]] and he decided to remain with Aizu samurai when Hijikata decided to go to Hakodate.<br />
Hijikata was shot and killed at the [[Battle of Hakodate]] and the last Shinsengumi commander [[Soma Kazue]] surrendered.<br />
He was exiled to Niijima island later.<br />

*Hi Seven! I'm glad finally you came here!--[[User:Shikisoku|Shikisoku]] 16:27, 12 January 2007 (PST)<br />
<br />
:It's good to have someone who has a solid grap of editing a wiki! Everything is pretty much the same as wikipedia with the exception that we try to cite all our sources to set us apart from them, and that we are far, far more strict on what goes up out of necessity in order to keep this a useful historical resource that can be referred to for further research. I tend to delete many things that WP would blithely leave up. Also, the articles tagged as a "draft" basically need a going-over for grammar and readability, so feel free to fix those up as you come across them. Thanks for the help! --[[User:Shogun|Kitsuno]] 22:26, 12 January 2007 (PST)<br />

::I know where you're coming from. At the Wikipedia, the Shinsengumi articles have been on my watchlist since March 2006 and I also tend to delete everything that can't be backed up with historical references.

<div>* ''Born: [[1854]]''<br />
* ''Died: ?''<br />
* ''Japanese'':市村鉄之助 (Ichimura Tetsunosuke)<br />
<br />
Born in 1854, Ichimura Tetsunosuke was the third son of Ichimura Hanemoki, a samurai from Ogaki-han. Ichimura Tetsunosuke joined the [[Shinsengumi]] with older brother [[Ichimura Tatsunosuke]] in [[1867]].<br />
After the [[Battle of Koshu-Katsunuma]], Tatsunosuke deserted from the Shinsengumi but Tetsunosuke stayed.<br />
During the [[Battle of Hakodate]], [[Hijikata Toshizo]] ordered Tetsunosuke to escape from there and take his photograph,hair and death poem to [[Sato Hikogoro]] in Hino.<br />
About 2 months after Hijikata's death, Tetsunosuke arrived at Sato's house and stayed there for 3 years.<br />
Then he returned to his home in Ogaki.<br />
<br />
There are a few theories in regard of Ichimura Tetsunosuke's death date, while many believe that Ichimura joined Saigo Takamori's army and died during the Satsuma Rebellion in 1877, some believe that he died from an illness in 1873. <br />

<br />
<br />
Takeda Kanryûsai joined the [[Shinsengumi]] in [[1863]]. In [[1864]], He captured [[Furutaka Shuntaro]] which led to the [[Ikedaya Affair]].<br />
[[Kondo Isami]] treated particularly well because he was an expert of ''Koshu Ryu Gungaku'' (the Takeda clan's military science). However, Kanryûsai was disliked by other members and perceived as a flatterer.<br />
Later, the Shinsengumi adopted a more Western military style and ''Koshu Ryu Gungaku'' was no longer needed.<br />
<br />
He lost his position in the Shinsengumi and contacted [[Satsuma han|Satsuma]], which was discovered by [[Hijikata Toshizo]].<br />
In [[1867]], his request of leaving the Shinsengumi was admitted and <br />
[[Kondo Isami]] held farewell party for him.<br />
After the party, it is believed that Takeda was assassinated by [[Saito Hajime]] on the way to the Satsuma han residence. (There is an alternative theory that someone else assassinated Takeda.)<br />
Takeda's comrade [[Kato Higuma|Katô Higuma]] was later ordered to commit [[Seppuku]], possibly due to Kanryûsai's prior actions.<br />

<br />
==Mito==<br />
Suzuki Okura was born in [[Hitachi province|Hitachi]] as a son of [[Shizuku han]] Samurai. His family was expeled from the han when he was little.<br />
Okura left from family same time and moved to Mito to study which strongly effected him to be [[Sonno]].<br />
Later he moved to [[Edo]], became pupil of Ito Seiichiro dojo of [[Hokushin Itto Ryu]].<br />
He married to dojo master's daughter and inherited the dojo.<br />
(His name changed to Ito Okura)<br />
<br />
==Shinsengumi==<br />
In [[1864]], he joined [[Shinsengumi]] with [[Shinohara Tainoshin]],[[Kano Washio]],<br />
[[Hattori Takeo]].[[Utsumi Jiro]],[[Nakajima Nobori]],[[Sano Shimenosuke]]<br />
, and his brother [[Suzuki Mikisaburo]].<br />
Okura changed his name to Ito Kashitaro<br />
<br />
[[Kondo Isami]] adored his intelligence and treated him as executive officer in the begining.<br />
But they had opposite political philosophies.<br />
Kondo was [[Sabaku]], Ito was [[Tobaku]].<br />
<br />
==Goryo Eji==<br />
In [[1867]] shortly after [[Emperor Komei]] died, Ito Kashitaro group separated from Shinsengumi and formed [[Goryo Eji]]. Goryo Eji means "Guards of Emperor's tomb".<br />
They moved to Zenryu-ji, later moved to [[Kodai-ji]].<br />
They became under the protection of [[Satsuma han]] secretly. On November 18 ''(12/13/1867)'', Kondo invited Ito to his resident in Samegai.<br />
Ito was assassinated by Shinsengumi members on the way to Kodai-ji at the night.<br />
The Goryo Eji members who came to pick up his body were also attacked.<br />
([[Incident at Aburano Koji]])<br />

<br />
==Shieikan==<br />
Okita Soji was born as a son of lower [[Shirakawa han]] Samurai.He was raised by his oldest sister Mitsu and her husband after father died.<br />
When he was around 10, he became pupil of Kondo Shusuke's [[Shieikan]] dojo of [[Tennen Rishin Ryu]].<br />
One of the famous episode of this Kenjutsu genius is when he was just 12, he defeated a Kenjutsu teacher of Shirakawa han.<br />
Soji became head coach of Shieikan when he was around 19.<br />
<br />
[[1863]], he joined [[Roshigumi]] along with other Shieikan members.<br />
<br />
==Shinsengumi==<br />
Soji was involved in the assassination of [[Tonouchi Yoshio]] and [[Serizawa Kamo]].<br />
On the [[Ikedaya Affair]], he was one of 4 members who raided inside of Ikedaya.<br />
During the 2hours battle, Soji fought on the 2nd floor almost alone but <br />
fell down unconscious because of either Anemia or heat.<br />
(Recent researches deny that this was symptom of tuberculosis)<br />
Many people who witnessed the Shinsengumi in action, described Soji as <br />
one of the best Swordman in the Shinsengumi.<br />
On the other hand,[[Yagi Tamesaburo]] told [[Shimozawa Kan]] in early Showa period <br />
"Soji was always joking" <br />
"He used to play with neighboring children."<br />
<br />
==Tuberculosis==<br />
Soji became seriously ill in fall of [[1867]].<br />
He stayed at the [[Osaka Castle]] with wounded [[Kondo Isami]] during the <br />
[[Battle of Toba-Fushimi]] in January [[1868]].<br />
March, he visited [[Sato Hikogoro]] in Hino as a member of [[Koyo Chinbutai]] <br />
but had to return to [[Edo]] because of his illness.<br />
He died 2 months after Kondo's death.<br />
His grave is in Keisho-ji, Tokyo.<br />

''"On November 18 (lunar calendar)"'' <br />
Do we have to mention Lunar calendar everytime when writing dates?--[[User:Shikisoku|Shikisoku]] 17:12, 12 January 2007 (PST)<br />
<br />
:Since a lot of people get confused, I believe that we do have to mention it's a lunar calendar date whenever possible. [[User:Seven|Seven]] 17:16, 12 January 2007 (PST)<br />
<br />
I had discussion about this with Kitsuno when writing Timeline.<br />
And conclusion was that this wiki takes Lunar calendar. <br />
So please stop adding (lunar calendar) until Kitsuno decide what to do.--[[User:Shikisoku|Shikisoku]] 17:25, 12 January 2007 (PST)<br />
<br />
There is no need to add "lunar calendar" because unless otherwise noted, it is understood as lunar calendar. I just have to update the main page to reflect that.

The Shinsengumi was a special police force in [[Kyoto]], which was organized by the [[Bakufu]] during the [[Bakumatsu period]] .<br />
<br />
==Roshigumi==<br />
In [[1862]], the [[Bakufu]] recruited [[Ronin]] to guard the [[Shogun]] [[Tokugawa Iemochi|Iemochi]] on the occasion of a visit to [[Kyoto]].<br />
It was planned by [[Kiyokawa Hachiro]] of [[Shonai han]].<br />
Around 200 Ronin formed the [[Roshigumi]], <br />
they headed to Kyoto in Feburuary [[1863]]. <br />
The supervisors were [[Matsudaira Chikaranosuke]], [[Udono Kyuo]], [[Kubota Shigekatsu]], [[Yamaoka Tesshu]], [[Nakajo Kinnosuke]], [[Sasaki Tadasaburo]].<br />
Right after they arrived at Kyoto, Kiyokawa's conspiracy was revealed.<br />
The Roshigumi decided to return Edo except [[Kondo Isami|Kondo Isami's]] [[Shieikan]]<br />
and [[Serizawa Kamo|Serizawa Kamo's]] Mito group.<br />
Some other members also remained with them in Mibu village, Kyoto.<br />
In March, They named [[Mibu Roshigumi]].<br />
The Mibu Roshigumi was hired by [[Aizu han]] [[the Military Commissioner of Kyoto]]<br />
In August, they were dispatched for the [[Political change on August 18]].<br />
Lord [[Matsudaura Katamori]] evaluated their job and gave them new name Shinsengumi.<br />
(Some sources say the name was given by [[Buku Denso]])<br />
<br />
==Shinsengumi==<br />
September [[1863]], Shieikan group purged Mito group to control over Shinsengumi.<br />
In [[1864]] Shinsengumi raided [[Ikedaya Affair|Ikedaya]] where [[Sonjo Roshi]] <br />
were planning to burn [[Kyoto]].<br />
After following [[Kinmon rebellion]] , Shinsengumi recruited more than 200 new members <br />
with the prize money given by the Imperial court, Bakufu and Aizu han.<br />
<br />
The new members included [[Ito Kashitaro]] group who Kondo recruited in Edo.<br />
The Shinsengumi headquarter moved to [[Nishi Hongan-ji]] from Mibu.<br />
[[1867]] shortly after Shinsengumi were officialy hired as [[Bakushin]] ,<br />
Ito Kashitaro group were separated and formed [[Goryo Eji]].<br />
They were assassinated.([[Incident at Aburano Koji]])<br />
<br />
==Boshin War==<br />
January [[1868]] , [[Boshin war]] was started with <br />
the [[Battle of Toba-Fushimi]].<br />
Shinsengumi and other Bakufu troops flighted to Edo with battleship [[Fujisan Maru]] .<br />
Shinsengumi was reorganized to [[Koyo Chinbutai]].<br />
The Koyo Chinbutai headed to take over [[Kofu castle]], but lost the [[Battle of Koshu-Katsunuma]].<br />
When they returned to Edo, [[Nagakura Shinpachi]] and [[Harada Sanosuke]]<br />
left from Shinsengumi and formed [[Seikyotai]].<br />
Kondo was captured in [[Nagareyama]] and executed at [[Itabashi]].<br />
[[Okita Soji]] died of Tuberculosis on May 30 (lunar calendar)<br />
.<br />
[[Hijikata Toshizo]] was wounded at the [[Battle of Utsunomiya castle]] ,<br />
[[Saito Hajime]] became commander of Shinsengumi during the [[Battle of Aizu]] and he decided to remain with Aizu samurai when Hijikata decided to go to Hakodate.<br />
Hijikata was shot and killed at the [[Battle of Hakodate]] and the last Shinsengumi commander [[Soma Kazue]] surrendered.<br />
He was exiled to Niijima island later.<br />

==Regulations==<br />
The Shinsengumi Regulations (Kyokuchu Hatto) were established<br />
to control the members. <br />
The regulations were first used to purge Serizawa's Mito group.<br />
<br />
#Deviating from Bushido.<br />
#Leaving the Shinsengumi.<br />
#Raising money privately.<br />
#Taking part in litigations.<br />
#Engaging in private fights.<br />
#Anybody who breaks the rules will be ordered to commit seppuku.<br />
<br />
==Uniform==<br />
The famous blue [[Haori]] was designed from [[Chushingura]].<br />
The pale blue color ''Asagi'' was known as the color of seppuku [[Kamishimo]].<br />
But this Haori was used only for a year.<br />

<br />
==Shieikan==<br />
Okita Soji was born as a son of lower [[Shirakawa han]] Samurai.He was raised by his oldest sister Mitsu and her husband after father died.<br />
When he was around 10, he became pupil of Kondo Shusuke's [[Shieikan]] dojo of [[Tennen Rishin Ryu]].<br />
One of the famous episode of this Kenjutsu genius is when he was just 12, he defeated a Kenjutsu teacher of Shirakawa han.<br />
Soji became head coach of Shieikan when he was around 19.<br />
<br />
[[1863]], he joined [[Roshigumi]] along with other Shieikan members.<br />
<br />
==Shinsengumi==<br />
Soji was involved in the assassination of [[Tonouchi Yoshio]] and [[Serizawa Kamo]].<br />
On the [[Ikedaya Affair]], he was one of 4 members who raided inside of Ikedaya.<br />
During the 2hours battle, Soji fought on the 2nd floor almost alone but <br />
fell down unconscious because of either Anemia or heat.<br />
(Recent researches deny that this was symptom of tuberculosis)<br />
Many people who witnessed the Shinsengumi in action, described Soji as <br />
one of the best Swordman in the Shinsengumi.<br />
On the other hand,[[Yagi Tamesaburo]] told [[Shimozawa Kan]] in early Showa period <br />
"Soji was always joking" <br />
"He used to play with neighboring children."<br />
<br />
==Tuberculosis==<br />
Soji became seriously ill in fall of [[1867]].<br />
He stayed at the [[Osaka Castle]] with wounded [[Kondo Isami]] during the <br />
[[Battle of Toba-Fushimi]] in January [[1868]].<br />
March, he visited [[Sato Hikogoro]] in Hino as a member of [[Koyo Chinbutai]] <br />
but had to return to [[Edo]] because of his illness.<br />
He died 2 months after Kondo's death.<br />
His grave is in Keisho-ji, Tokyo.<br />
(Keisho-ji allows visitors for Soji's grave only once a year)<br />

<br />
<br />
Takeda Kanryûsai joined the [[Shinsengumi]] in [[1863]]. In [[1864]], He captured [[Furutaka Shuntaro]] which led to the [[Ikedaya Affair]].<br />
[[Kondo Isami]] treated particularly well because he was an expert of ''Koshu Ryu Gungaku'' (the Takeda clan's military science). However, Kanryûsai was disliked by other members and perceived as a flatterer.<br />
Later, the Shinsengumi adopted a more Western military style and ''Koshu Ryu Gungaku'' was no longer needed.<br />
<br />
He lost his position in the Shinsengumi and contacted [[Satsuma han|Satsuma]], which was discovered by [[Hijikata Toshizo]].<br />
In [[1867]], his request of leaving the Shinsengumi was admitted and <br />
[[Kondo Isami]] held farewell party for him.<br />
After the party, it is believed that Takeda was assassinated by [[Saito Hajime]] on the way to the Satsuma han residence. (There is an alternative theory that someone else assassinated Takeda.)<br />
Takeda's comrade [[Kato Higuma|Katô Higuma]] was later ordered to commit [[Seppuku]], possibly due to Kanryûsai's prior actions.<br />

<br />
[[Image:Kondo_Isami.jpg|thumb|right|Photograph of Kondo Isami]] <br />
==Shieikan==<br />
<br />
Kondô Isami was born Miyagawa Katsugoro, in the village of Kami-Ishihara in [[Musashi province]], where he came from a farming family. In [[1848]] Kondô Isami started training in the [[Tennen Rishin Ryu]] sword style, at the [[Shieikan]] (this ryu was studied by many members of the Shinsengumi). A year later in [[1849]], he was adopted by [[Kondo Shusuke|Kondô Shûsuke]] (the third master of the Tennen Rishin Ryu) and changed his name to Shimazaki Katsuta. In [[1861]] Kondô became the fourth master of Tennen Rishin Ryu.<br />
<br />
In [[1863]], Kondô and another 8 Shieikan members joined the [[Roshigumi]]. The Roshigumi arrived at [[Kyoto]] on Feb 23, staying at the [[Yagi Gennojo]] residence in Mibu.<br />
<br />
==Shinsengumi==<br />
[[Kiyokawa Hachiro]] suggested the Roushigumi return to [[Edo]], however, Kondô and 23 other Roushi decided to stay in Kyoto.<br />
They submitted a petition to Lord [[Matsudaira Katamori]] of [[Aizu han]], the [[Military Commissioner of Kyoto]] and started working under Aizu han as [[Mibu Roshigumi]].<br />
<br />
The Mibu Roshigumi were ordered to guard Ohanabatake gate during the [[Political change on August 18]].<br />
After that, they were given the new name [[Shinsengumi]] by Katamori (Or [[Buku Denso]]).<br />
On September 16, Kondô Isami's group killed [[Serizawa Kamo|Serizawa Kamo's]] group and Kondô became commander of the Shinsengumi.<br />
<br />
In [[1864]], the Shinsengumi raided the Ikedaya ([[Ikedaya Jiken]]) and destroyed the <br />
[[Sonjo Roshi]] group. <br />
After the [[Kinmon rebellion]], Kondô went back to Edo to hire more members.<br />
He brought [[Ito Kashitaro|Ito Kashitaro's]] group to Kyoto.<br />
In [[1867]] June, Shinsengumi members were appointed to be [[Jikisan]].<br />
In December, Kondô was shot in the right shoulder on the Fushimi street, and was narrowly saved by [[Shimada Kai]].<br />
<br />
[[Image:Isamigrave5sm.jpg|thumb|right|100px|Kondo isami's grave site in Chofu city.]]<br />
<br />
==Boshin war==<br />
Kondo was at the [[Osaka Castle]] with [[Okita Soji]] who was ill at the time during the [[Battle of Toba-Fushimi]] <br />
in January 1868, Kondô returned to Edo,reorganized the Shinsengumi to [[Koyo Chinbutai]].the Koyo Chinbutai headed to [[Kofu castle]], but lost the battle at the [[Battle of Koshu-Katsunuma]]. <br />
In April,the Shinsengumi were surrounded by imperial troops at [[Nagareyama]], Kondô surrendered as [[Okubo Yamato]].<br />
He was beheaded on May 17 1868 at [[Itabashi]].<br />
His head has been missing after being displayed at Sanjo river side, Kyoto.<br />
<br />
Kondo's grave sites are <br />
*Itabashi, Tokyo. <br />

<br />
Born in 1854, Ichimura Tetsunosuke was the third son of Ichimura Hanemoki, a samurai from Ogaki-han. Ichimura Tetsunosuke joined the [[Shinsengumi]] with older brother [[Ichimura Tatsunosuke]] in [[1867]].<br />
After the [[Battle of Koshu-Katsunuma]], Tatsunosuke deserted from the Shinsengumi but Tetsunosuke stayed.<br />
During the [[Battle of Hakodate]], [[Hijikata Toshizo]] ordered Tetsunosuke to escape from there and take his photograph,hair and death poem to [[Sato Hikogoro]] in Hino.<br />
About 2 months after Hijikata's death, Tetsunosuke arrived at Sato's house and stayed there for 3 years.<br />
Then he returned to his home in Ogaki.<br />
<br />
There are a few theories in regard of Ichimura Tetsunosuke's death date, while many believe that Ichimura joined Saigo Takamori's army and died during the Satsuma Rebellion in 1877, some believe that he died from an illness in 1873. <br />

<br />
The Shinsengumi was a special police force in [[Kyoto]], which was organized by the [[Bakufu]] during the [[Bakumatsu period]] .<br />
<br />
==Roshigumi==<br />
In [[1862]], the [[Bakufu]] recruited [[Ronin]] to guard the [[Shogun]] [[Tokugawa Iemochi|Iemochi]] on the occasion of a visit to [[Kyoto]].<br />
It was planned by [[Kiyokawa Hachiro]] of [[Shonai han]].<br />
Around 200 Ronin formed the [[Roshigumi]], <br />
they headed to Kyoto in Feburuary [[1863]]. <br />
The supervisors were [[Matsudaira Chikaranosuke]], [[Udono Kyuo]], [[Kubota Shigekatsu]], [[Yamaoka Tesshu]], [[Nakajo Kinnosuke]], [[Sasaki Tadasaburo]].<br />
Right after they arrived at Kyoto, Kiyokawa's conspiracy was revealed.<br />
The Roshigumi decided to return Edo except [[Kondo Isami|Kondo Isami's]] [[Shieikan]]<br />
and [[Serizawa Kamo|Serizawa Kamo's]] Mito group.<br />
Some other members also remained with them in Mibu village, Kyoto.<br />
In March, They named [[Mibu Roshigumi]].<br />
The Mibu Roshigumi was hired by [[Aizu han]] [[the Military Commissioner of Kyoto]]<br />
In August, they were dispatched for the [[Political change on August 18]].<br />
Lord [[Matsudaura Katamori]] evaluated their job and gave them new name Shinsengumi.<br />
(Some sources say the name was given by [[Buku Denso]])<br />
<br />
==Shinsengumi==<br />
September [[1863]], Shieikan group purged Mito group to control over Shinsengumi.<br />
In [[1864]] Shinsengumi raided [[Ikedaya Affair|Ikedaya]] where [[Sonjo Roshi]] <br />
were planning to burn [[Kyoto]].<br />
After following [[Kinmon rebellion]] , Shinsengumi recruited more than 200 new members <br />
with the prize money given by the Imperial court, Bakufu and Aizu han.<br />
<br />
The new members included [[Ito Kashitaro]] group who Kondo recruited in Edo.<br />
The Shinsengumi headquarter moved to [[Nishi Hongan-ji]] from Mibu.<br />
[[1867]] shortly after Shinsengumi were officialy hired as [[Bakushin]] ,<br />
Ito Kashitaro group were separated and formed [[Goryo Eji]].<br />
They were assassinated.([[Incident at Aburano Koji]])<br />
<br />
==Boshin War==<br />
January [[1868]] , [[Boshin war]] was started with <br />
the [[Battle of Toba-Fushimi]].<br />
Shinsengumi and other Bakufu troops flighted to Edo with battleship [[Fujisan Maru]] .<br />
Shinsengumi was reorganized to [[Koyo Chinbutai]].<br />
The Koyo Chinbutai headed to take over [[Kofu castle]], but lost the [[Battle of Koshu-Katsunuma]].<br />
When they returned to Edo, [[Nagakura Shinpachi]] and [[Harada Sanosuke]]<br />
left from Shinsengumi and formed [[Seikyotai]].<br />
Kondo was captured in [[Nagareyama]] and executed at [[Itabashi]].<br />
[[Okita Soji]] died of Tuberculosis just 2 months after Kondo's death.<br />
[[Hijikata Toshizo]] was wounded at the [[Battle of Utsunomiya castle]] ,<br />
[[Saito Hajime]] became commander of Shinsengumi during the [[Battle of Aizu]] and he decided to remain with Aizu samurai when Hijikata decided to go to Hakodate.<br />
Hijikata was shot and killed at the [[Battle of Hakodate]] and the last Shinsengumi commander [[Soma Kazue]] surrendered.<br />
He was exiled to Niijima island later.<br />

==Mito==<br />
The Serizawa family were [[Goshi|Gôshi]] of Seizawa village in [[Hitachi province]].<br />
Serizawa Mistumoto was adopted into the Shimomura family and his name was changed to Shimomura Tsuguji.<br />
Tsuguji was jailed for involvement in the "Tamatsukurigumi" which was a [[Sonno|Sonnô]][[Joi|Jôi]] group in [[Mito han]], however he was released in [[1862]] and then he changed name to "Serizawa Kamo".<br />
<br />
==Mibu Rôshigumi==<br />
He joined the [[Roshigumi|Rôshigumi]] in [[Edo]] in [[1864]] and moved to [[Kyoto]].<br />
He and [[Kondo Isami|Kondô Isami]] protested against [[Kiyokawa Hachiro|Kiyokawa Hachirô]] and decided to stay in Kyoto.<br />
The 24 [[Ronin]] who stayed in Kyoto called themselves the [[Mibu Roshigumi|Mibu Rôshigumi]] and they were employed by [[Aizu han]].<br />
However, Serizawa's violent acts became a big problem in Kyoto, so Aizu han secretly ordered Kondo to assassinate Serizawa.<br />
In [[1863]], [[Hijikata Toshizo|Hijikata Toshizô]], [[Okita Soji|Okita Sôji]], [[Harada Sanosuke]], and [[Yamanami Keisuke]] stormed into [[Yagi Gennojo|Yagi Gennojô's]] house and killed Serizawa and [[Hirayama Goro|Hirayama Gorô]]. (There are alternative theories regarding the people involved in Serizawa's assassination.) Their graves are in [[Mibu temple]] Kyoto.<br />

<br />
==Shieikan==<br />
Yamanami was [[Ronin]] from [[Sendai han]] who practiced [[Onoha Itto Ryu]] ([[Menkyo]]) and [[Hokushin Itto Ryu]] ([[Menkyo]]). In [[1860]].<br />
He visited [[Shieikan]] dojo and had a match with [[Kondo Isami]].<br />
He was defeated and was enrolled at the Tennen Rishin Ryu's Shieikan. In 1863, Kondo and other 8 Shieikan members joined the [[Roshigumi]].<br />
<br />
==Shinsengumi==<br />
Yamanami is believed to have been involved in the assassination of [[Serizawa Kamo]].<br />
[[1864]] January, he captured [[Futei Roshi]] at Iwaki Masuya and received prize money from<br />
Lord [[Matsudaira Katamori]] of Aizu. <br />
On the [[Ikedaya Affair]], he stayed in the [[Mibu Roshigumi]] headquater.<br />
<br />
In 1864 October, [[Ito Kashitaro]] joined [[Shinsengumi]], he could have been given higher status than Yamanami.<br />
<br />
Later in 1864, according to some sources, Yamanami protested Kondo and [[Hijikata Toshizo|Hijikata]]<br />
over moving the headquater to [[Nishi Hongan-ji]].<br />
But Kondo and Hijikata completely ignored him which made him feel isolated.<br />
<br />
==Death==<br />
[[1865]] February 21, Yamanami suddenly ran away from Shinsengumi. <br />
He was captured next day and ordered to commit [[Seppuku]] along the Shinsengumi Regulations (Kyokuchu Hatto).<br />
His grave is in [[Koen-ji]], [[Kyoto]].<br />
