Summary

Hijikata Toushirou is a 27-year-old male human with an A blood type, standing 177 cm tall and weighing 64 kg. Born on May 5, which is Children's Day in Japan, he falls under the Taurus zodiac sign. A right-handed chain smoker, he serves as the vice commander of the Shinsengumi, a position for which his subordinates have dubbed him the "demonic vice-commander" due to his fearsome demeanor. Although often regarded as the strategic brain behind the force, he is known for his hot temper and frequent mentions of seppuku, yet he remains fiercely loyal to his leader, Isao Kondo. Beneath his cold exterior lies a compassionate side, evidenced by his surprising tendency to cry after watching movies that are not particularly emotional. Hijikata has a well-known obsession with mayonnaise, earning him the nickname "Mayora." He smotheres his food in the condiment and carries jar-shaped items, such as a cigarette lighter, though this quirk reportedly caused him to lose popularity with girls once they discovered it. Before joining the Shinsengumi, he was a trouble-making ronin who enjoys a good fight. He formulated the Kyokuchuu Hatto, the 45 Regulations that serve as the disciplinary framework for the group, and enforces them strictly. In Episode 5, he expressed indifference toward the destruction of Amanto buildings, focusing instead on the prospect of a large-scale battle with Joui rebels. He views Gintoki as a rival in nearly every contest, from drinking to rock, paper, scissors, a dynamic established after being defeated by Gintoki in battle. Despite constantly facing assassination attempts by Okita, whom he considers a close friend, Hijikata maintains this bond. His life is marked by his smoking habits, his mayonnaise consumption, and his dedication to his duties within the Shinsengumi.
