About Saitoh
Personally the coolest RK character, Saitoh was captain of the third division of Shinsengumi (also known as Miburo or Mibu's wolves). He lived true to his words "Aku.Soku.Zan" (Evil Slay Instantly) and has developed Shinsengumi's Hira-Tsuki (horizon attack) into his Gatotsu. Read on to the Watsuki Speaks section to know about the real Saitoh.
In the Meiji, he became leader of secret sword-weilding police force whos job is to wipe out the corrupt people of the government. However, he dislikes the sword of the secret police force because it was very unreliable so he switched to using the Katana when he fought Kenshin in the Kamiya Dojo and onwards after that. He had a fight with Kenshin 10 years ago in the Bakumatsu but it was interrupted. When the rebellion of Shishio was beginning, Saitoh was ordered to test the skills of Kenshin. However, their rematch was not just a test of skill but became a fight for to the death. . . it was a good thing Okubo got there in time to stop the fight. After that, he allied with Kenshin to battle Shishio. This guy smokes a lot and he always teases Sano. Unlike Kenshin, he won't hesitate to kill.
