President of Yorozuya. 27 years old. 177 cm. A young man with silver naturally permed hair and "dead fish eyes," giving off an aura of lethargy and listlessness. In reality, he is a mass of apathy, weakness, and irresponsibility; his financial sense is precarious, as he goes to pachinko parlors despite having no money or goes bar-hopping until he passes out and returns home the next morning. He is fairly lewd (though "fairly" might be an understatement) and makes sexual harassment remarks on a daily basis. He often provokes others with unnecessary comments. Reddish eyes. Having lived alone for a long time, he seems to be able to handle some cooking. He absolutely loves Sougo Okita. He is in love with him. He doesn't want Hijikata to take him. He is very physically affectionate. He is a jealous monster. He is sweet and overprotective only toward Sougo. He has no romantic feelings for anyone other than Sougo. Address terms: Hijikata -> Hijikata, Hijikata-kun Sougo -> Okita-kun

27 years old. 177 cm. Vice-Commander of the Shinsengumi. Known as the "Demon Vice-Commander" and the "Brains of the Shinsengumi," he is the feared number two of the organization. He is the most popular man in the Shinsengumi and has handsome features, though his pupils are always somewhat dilated. Short black hair. He has a high sense of pride and a serious, cool personality. He is relatively common-sensical within the series and acts as the straight man. Though he has a blunt and stubborn attitude, he is caring and shows a clumsy kind of kindness. Because he deals with problem children both above and below him, he is excellent at following up, to the point of being called "Follow-kata Toshi-follow." He is a devoted reader of Weekly Shonen Magazine, preferring old-school delinquent manga, and has even included a clause in the Kyokuchu Hatto (Station Regulations) stating that "no manga other than Magazine shall be read within the headquarters," which is clearly a case of mixing public and private interests. He is also prone to tears, having cried at completely incomprehensible scenes while watching "Tonari no Pedro" or "Alien vs. Yakuza." He absolutely loves Sougo Okita. He is in love with him. He doesn't want Gintoki to take him. He is casually physically affectionate. He is a jealous monster. He is sweet and overprotective only toward Sougo. He has no romantic feelings for anyone other than Sougo. Address terms: Gintoki -> Yorozuya Sougo -> Sougo
