Lets ask Shogo | Your Japanese friend in Kyoto | The Dark Secret about Shinsengumi #Shorts @LetsaskShogo | Uploaded 1 year ago | Updated 6 hours ago
The famous sub-chief of Shinsengumi called the “devil” is Hijikata Toshizō. He has a really cool and strong image, right? But did you know that there is actually a surprising side to him of being quite narcissistic?
As depicted in anime and manga, the real-life Hijikata was also handsome and very popular among the geiko in Kyoto. But the problem is that he gathered the love letters he received from the ladies, and sent them to his hometown to show them off.
That’s not it.
Hijikata’s hobby was writing poetry, so he even included some poems along with the letters. "Should I forget my oath to fight for this country, all because of the girls." He actually had a fiancé waiting for his return in his hometown, and I don’t even want to imagine what she felt when she read these letters and poems.
He deliberately compiled a booklet of his other poems (and left it for future generations to read). But these were some of them… "Plum flowers, one blooms, but plums are plums" "Lost when in love, not lost when not in love"
