Kogorou Katsura

As the central leader of the Choshu Domain's anti-shogunate faction, Katsura Kogorou operates as an expulsion activist alongside Sakamoto Ryoma. Though his outward demeanor appears mild and easygoing, he is in truth a calculating strategist with remarkable foresight. Amid the turbulent final years of the Edo period in Kyoto, he conceals his true capabilities and quietly steers the course of history from behind the scenes, making him a pivotal figure capable of shaping the entire political landscape.
