Hijikata, Toushirou

土方 十四郎

Hijikata is the renowned chain-smoking vice commander of the Shinsengumi, a title given to him by his subordinates due to his intimidating presence. He is reportedly the strategic mind behind the group, takes his duties seriously, and remains fiercely loyal to his leader, Isao Kondo.
Hijikata holds a reputation as a terrifying leader, which earned him the moniker "demonic vice-commander." He is also quick-tempered and frequently mentions seppuku. Yet, beneath his cold exterior, he possesses a more compassionate side. Additionally, he has a habit of crying after watching films that are not particularly moving.
Hijikata is obsessed with mayonnaise, leading to the nickname "Mayora." He is known to douse any food he eats with a large amount of mayonnaise and carries several items shaped like mayonnaise jars, including his cigarette lighter. He was popular with girls until they learned of this obsession.
He enjoys combat and views Gintoki as a rival in nearly everything he does, from drinking contests to rock, paper, scissors, ever since losing a battle to him. He is constantly at risk of being killed by Okita's attempts on his life. However, despite all this, he considers Okita one of his close friends, and the feeling is mutual.
Before joining the Shinsengumi, he was a troublesome ronin. He enjoys fighting and having good battles, stating that he does not care how many Amanto buildings are destroyed; he only looks forward to a major clash with the Joui rebels after the Shinsengumi corners them in one swift move, as seen in Episode 5.
He also drafted the Kyokuchuu Hatto, the 45 Regulations that establish the disciplinary framework for Shinsengumi members, and enforces them strictly.
