About Saito. I heard his real name was Yamaguchi & he was forced to become a fugitive after he killed someone. Then he joined the Shinsengumi as Saitou Hajime under sponsorship by the Aizu Han. After the Bakumatsu ended, he became a policeman Fujita Goro. After retirement from the police force, he took up a job as a musuem guard. He married one Takagi Tokio, daughter of a high-ranking AIzu official, and had 3 sons. He died of a stomach ulcer from his over-indulgence in sake. (I thought it'd be lung cancer the way he smokes in RK)
Wonder if any of these is right.
