Character Description: Katsura Kogoro
Katsura is the leader of the Choshu Ishin Shishi, a clan who fought against the Shogunate. After seeing Kenshin's skills as a swordsman, he recruites him into the Ishin Shishi to become a Hitokiri (assassin).
After the fall of the Choshu in Kyoto, Katsura sends Kenshin and Tomoe to live as husband and wife. Katsura then disappears until he visits Kenshin after Tomoe's death.
Later on (not indicated in the movie), Katsura dies during the Satsuma Rebellion.
