Nishiki, Ikumatsu

錦幾松

She owns a ramen restaurant. She harbored a deep grudge against Joi participants because her husband was killed in a terrorist attack. Katsura worked at her establishment while recovering from injuries and hiding from the Shinsengumi. He repaid her kindness by assisting her during a crisis. Although she is now aware of his identity as a Joi participant, they remain on friendly terms. Katsura's subsequent television interview was conducted at her restaurant. She also maintains a fairly friendly relationship with Gintoki, who is noted to visit her shop frequently.
