Sanosuke

RK's Sagara Sano is based on the actual Harada Sanosuke. And PMK's Sano is based on RK's Sano! Is this confusing?

The historical Harada Sanosuke is described as a large man. Kinda peasant-type. And a spear user. ;D We see Sagara Sano swinging a zanbatou. He also has a fishbone sticking outta the corner of his mouth.

PMK's Harada Sano is portrayed as a large man, with a bamboo straw sticking out the corner of his mouth in some frames.

If anyone is wondering abt why Seta Soujirou resembles RK Okita so much, Soujirou is based on Okita. In fact, Okita can be read as Seta. We see both as child prodigy swordsmen.

Well the RK shinsengumi character models look exactly like their RK meiji "Kenshin-gumi" models. The link has a picture of the Shinsengumi as drawn by Watsuki. Can you see Harada and Okita? I have poster like this on my wall! XD

Ummmmmmmm....yeah, at first I was really confused on how the RK san and the PMK sano were somehow the same.... I'm sort of on track now.... ;D Oh--I like the pic, I've seen it somewhere, but my brain isn't working right now...I just got back from school...XP

Yeah, it's like a lot of my original characters in my stories & fanfics are based on family members etc, especially the strong female characters.

PMK Sanosuke reminds me of a bear, a friendly one. (Well, he must have the constitution of an ox to survive his near-seppuku). RK Sanosuke reminds me of a street punk.
