Shinsengumi
Nagakura Shinpachi was one of 4 members who raided inside of Ikedaya. After the Kinmon rebellion, Kondo Isami's arrogant behaviours irretated some Shinsengumi members. Nagakura and Harada Sanosuke and Saito Hajime and other 3 members submitted a petition of the impeachment of Kondo to Matsudaira Katamori but failed. When they returned to Edo after the Battle of Koshu-Katsunuma, Nagakura and Kondo argued over plans. Kondo said "If you become my retainer" then Nagakura and Sano made decision to leave Shinsengumi. They formed Seiheitai, participated some battles in Utsunomiya, Imaichi and headed to north but it was too late.
