hardball

When founding of Shinsengumi.
Of course there were Ronin who were originally samurai.
There was various reasons，they threw away their positions by own intention.
Therefore awareness about samurai would have been different with Kondo and Hijikata.
They were excluded by purge in the process of the growth of Shinsengumi.

"We are originally farmers not samurai."
Maybe Kondo and Hijikata there was a feeling inferior to their.

Okita was the youngest among the founding members.
He was also originally samurai.
However，He seemed fun being with just Kondo and Hijikata.
They were also deal like young brother to Okita.
Okita was the captain of the top team in Shinsengumi.
　
According to the folklore，Okita was always joking.
He had never become serious.
　
He also liked children.
If there is free time，he was playing with the kids in the neighborhood.
　
"If you have time to spare such，you should practice the sword."
He was also said such complaints.
But he was stronger than anyone else.
　
"If hardball，Kondo also will lose."
People said so.
