One day, Toshizo met [[Kondo Isami]] at [[Sato Hikogoro]]'s dojo and he became pupil of [[Tennen Rishin-ryu|Tennen Rishin ryu]].
One day, Hijikata met [[Kondo Isami]] at [[Sato Hikogoro]]'s dojo and he became a pupil of [[Tennen Rishin Ryu]] in [[1851]] and was officially enrolled at the school in [[1859]].
In [[1863]], Toshizo and other [[Shieikan]] members joined [[Roshigumi]].
His skill of the [[ryu-ha]] was just [[Mokuroku]], however his name
was listed on [[Bujutsu Eimei Roku]] which means he was known as
a swordmaster in those days.
In [[1863]], Hijikata and other [[Shieikan]] members joined [[Roshigumi]].
==Shinsengumi==
==Shinsengumi==
Kondo Isami and Hijikata Toshizo ruled the [[Shinsengumi]] completely after eliminating [[Serizawa Kamo]]'s Mito group.
''Kyokuchu Hatto''(The Shinsengumi Regulations) is believed to be Hijikata's idea.
Many of Shinsengumi members lost their lives because of the strict regulations.
During the [[Ikedaya Affair]], Hijikata's troop arrived at Ikedaya later than Kondo's troop.
Hijikata first secured around Ikedaya to not let Aizu and Kuwana han samurai in.
As the result, the Shinsengumi received all the fame and prizes.
==Boshin war==
==Boshin war==
Hijikata commanded the Shinsengumi at the [[Battle of Toba-Fushimi]] and the [[Battle of Yodo-Senryomatsu]](1868 January) instead of Kondo Isami, who was wounded at that time.
The Shinsengumi lost many members in those battles.
Then Hijikata realized "The age of swords is over."
When Kondo was captured at [[Nagareyama]], Hijikata went back to Edo, already occupied by the imperial army, to appeal to [[Katsu Kaishu]] for Kondo's life.
Hijikata then headed to Utsunomiya with several Shinsengumi members ([[Saito Hajime]] took most of the members to Aizu) , to join the [[Bakufu]] troops.
He injured his foot in April and was sent to Aizu. However he was unable to
come back to the front line until August.
Kondo's grave in Aizu was built during the time.

==Hakodate==
Hijikata and Bakufu troops occupied [[Goryokaku|Goryôkaku]] in October and [[Matsumae castle]] in November.
They announced the new "Republic of Ezo" ([[Enomoto Takeaki]] as the president) and Hijikata was appointed to be the ''[[Ezo]] Army [[Bugyo]] Nami''.
[[1869]] March, they attacked [[Battle of Miyako bay|Miyako bay]] to take over the battleship ''[[Kotetsu|Kôtetsu]]'', but failed.
In April, the Imperial troops started landing on Ezo.
Hijikata was guarding Futamataguchi, but had to
return Goryôkaku because the Imperial army was getting close to Goryôkaku.
1869/5/11, Hijikata took a small unit to save the Shinsengumi in ''Benten battery'' where they were surrounded by the the Imperial army.
Hijikata was shot at Ippongi.
His body is believed to be buried in [[Hekketsuhi]] or Ganjo-ji.
Two months after his death, his page [[Ichimura Tetsunosuke]] visited Sato Hikogoro's house and handed Hijikata's photograph, hair and death poem.
Hijikata's grave sites are
*Sekiden-ji (Hino city.Tokyo)
*Shomyo-ji (Hakodate city, Hokkaido)
*Itabashi, Tokyo
