In the days of the Mibu R\u014dshigumi, Makoto had already been well recognized as the team\u2019s spirit and framework. Made of red gauze, the banner was approximately four feet long and three feet wide, with the Kanji character printed in the centre and adorned with a mountain-shaped pattern on the bottom. Makoto means sincerity and truth. As the name suggests, this represents their respect and loyalty to the sh\u014dgun and the Aizu-han.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-text-align-justify wp-block-paragraph\">The choice of the word Makoto had other implications. When the banner was held high and swaying in the wind, the \u8aa0 Kanji character appeared similar to\u8a66, a word representing Shieikan, a dojo for Tennen Rishin-ry\u016b. Back in 1860 Kond\u014d Isami, at the age of twenty-seven, succeeded as the fourth generation Tennen Rishin-ry\u016b master on the merits of his remarkable swordsmanship and integrity. Okita S\u014dji and Hijikata Toshiz\u014d respectively joined the Shieikan in 1852 and 1859, and both Yamanami Keisuke and T\u014dd\u014d Heisuke enjoyed a temporary stay there prior to their duty in R\u014dshigumi. The core figures of the Shinsengumi had a particularly strong affection for the Shieikan, and the correlation of the two Kanji characters in term of writing no doubt tightened the two\u2019s bond.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-gallery aligncenter columns-2 is-cropped wp-block-gallery-1 is-layout-flex wp-block-gallery-is-layout-flex\"><ul class=\"blocks-gallery-grid\"><li class=\"blocks-gallery-item\"><figure><img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" decoding=\"async\" data-attachment-id=\"648\" data-permalink=\"https:\/\/shinsengumijapan.com\/en\/2020\/10\/03\/flag\/2-2-1\/\" data-orig-file=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/shinsengumijapan.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/09\/c8090-2.2.1.jpg?fit=402%2C536&amp;ssl=1\" data-orig-size=\"402,536\" data-comments-opened=\"0\" data-image-meta=\"{&quot;aperture&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;credit&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;camera&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;caption&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;created_timestamp&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;copyright&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;focal_length&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;iso&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;shutter_speed&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;title&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;orientation&quot;:&quot;0&quot;}\" data-image-title=\"\u300c\u8aa0\u300d\u5b57\u65d7 NHK\u300a\u65b0\u9078\u7d44\uff01\u300b &amp;#8211; SHINSENGUMI \u65b0\u9078\u7d44 Makoto banner, from taiga drama Shinsengumi!\" data-image-description=\"&lt;p&gt;\u300c\u8aa0\u300d\u5b57\u65d7 NHK\u300a\u65b0\u9078\u7d44\uff01\u300b &amp;#8211; SHINSENGUMI \u65b0\u9078\u7d44 Makoto banner, from taiga drama Shinsengumi!&lt;\/p&gt;\" data-image-caption=\"&lt;p&gt;\u300c\u8aa0\u300d\u5b57\u65d7 NHK\u300a\u65b0\u9078\u7d44\uff01\u300b &amp;#8211; SHINSENGUMI \u65b0\u9078\u7d44 Makoto banner, from taiga drama Shinsengumi!&lt;\/p&gt;\" data-large-file=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/shinsengumijapan.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/09\/c8090-2.2.1.jpg?fit=402%2C536&amp;ssl=1\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/shinsengumijapan.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/09\/df1c0-2.2.1.jpg?ssl=1\" alt=\"\" data-id=\"648\" data-link=\"https:\/\/atomic-temporary-181982033.wpcomstaging.com\/?attachment_id=648\" class=\"wp-image-648\" \/><\/figure><\/li><li class=\"blocks-gallery-item\"><figure><img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" decoding=\"async\" data-attachment-id=\"649\" data-permalink=\"https:\/\/shinsengumijapan.com\/en\/2020\/10\/03\/flag\/2-2-2\/\" data-orig-file=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/shinsengumijapan.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/09\/20922-2.2.2.jpg?fit=801%2C1200&amp;ssl=1\" data-orig-size=\"801,1200\" data-comments-opened=\"0\" data-image-meta=\"{&quot;aperture&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;credit&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;camera&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;caption&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;created_timestamp&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;copyright&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;focal_length&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;iso&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;shutter_speed&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;title&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;orientation&quot;:&quot;0&quot;}\" data-image-title=\"SHINSENGUMI \u65b0\u9078\u7d44 \/ \u6536\u85cf\u65bc\u571f\u65b9\u6b72\u4e09\u8cc7\u6599\u9928\uff0c\u65b0\u9078\u7d44\u8896\u7ae0\u662f\u6975\u5c11\u6578\u5370\u4e0a\u300c\u8aa0\u300d\u5b57\u7684\u771f\u5be6\u7269\u54c1 The Sodesho is one of the few Makoto printed artifacts of high historical value.

Consisting of a pool of r\u014dnins from all walks of life and adapted with a carefree lifestyle, it was very difficult to keep the team cohesive especially in face of uncertainty and challenges. However Kond\u014d Isami did it via an incredible demonstration of his extraordinary interpersonal skills. Nagakura Shinpachi once shared in his memoirs that refining his swordsmanship was the goal towards approaching the Shieikan on initial thought. Along the way, he was fascinated by Kond\u014d Isami\u2019s chivalrous nature along and decided to remain behind so that they could pursue these ideals together.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-text-align-justify wp-block-paragraph\">\u800c\u984f\u8272\u65b9\u9762\uff0c\u8840\u7d05\u8272\u8c61\u5f81\u72a7\u7272\ufe54\u300c\u8aa0\u300d\u5b57\u53ef\u4f5c\u767d\u8272\u6216\u91d1\u8272\uff0c\u767d\u8272\u8c61\u5f81\u5c0d\u5fe0\u8aa0\u5fc3\u7121\u96dc\u5ff5\uff0c\u800c\u91d1\u8272\u5247\u8c61\u5f81\u5fe0\u8aa0\u53ef\u8cb4\u3002\u968a\u65d7\u5167\u542b\u9019\u4e9b\u610f\u601d\uff0c\u60f3\u5fc5\u80fd\u8b93\u968a\u58eb\u5011\u58eb\u6c23\u9ad8\u6602\uff0c\u8996\u6b7b\u5982\u6b78\u3002<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\"><figure class=\"aligncenter size-large\"><img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" decoding=\"async\" data-attachment-id=\"651\" data-permalink=\"https:\/\/shinsengumijapan.com\/en\/2020\/10\/03\/flag\/no-6-3\/\" data-orig-file=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/shinsengumijapan.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/09\/0e037-no.-6.3.jpg?fit=1593%2C893&amp;ssl=1\" data-orig-size=\"1593,893\" data-comments-opened=\"0\" data-image-meta=\"{&quot;aperture&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;credit&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;camera&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;caption&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;created_timestamp&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;copyright&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;focal_length&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;iso&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;shutter_speed&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;title&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;orientation&quot;:&quot;0&quot;}\" data-image-title=\"\u300c\u8aa0\u300d\u5b57\u65d7 NHK\u300a\u65b0\u9078\u7d44\uff01\u300b &amp;#8211; SHINSENGUMI \u65b0\u9078\u7d44 Makoto banner, from taiga drama Shinsengumi!\" data-image-description=\"&lt;p&gt;\u300c\u8aa0\u300d\u5b57\u65d7 NHK\u300a\u65b0\u9078\u7d44\uff01\u300b &amp;#8211; SHINSENGUMI \u65b0\u9078\u7d44 Makoto banner, from taiga drama Shinsengumi!&lt;\/p&gt;\" data-image-caption=\"&lt;p&gt;\u300c\u8aa0\u300d\u5b57\u65d7 NHK\u300a\u65b0\u9078\u7d44\uff01\u300b &amp;#8211; SHINSENGUMI \u65b0\u9078\u7d44 Makoto banner, from taiga drama Shinsengumi!&lt;\/p&gt;\" data-large-file=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/shinsengumijapan.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/09\/0e037-no.-6.3.jpg?fit=1024%2C574&amp;ssl=1\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/shinsengumijapan.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/10\/48996-no.-6.3-1024x574-1.jpg\" alt=\"\u65b0\u9078\u7d44\u968a\u65d7 -\u300c\u8aa0\u300d\u5b57 (makoto)\" class=\"wp-image-651\" \/><figcaption><strong>Stage photograph of Taiga drama Shinsengumi!<\/strong><\/figcaption><\/figure><\/div>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>\u8840\u7d05\u7684\u300c\u8aa0\u300d\u5b57\u65d7\u3001\u6dfa\u8525\u8272\u7684\u7fbd\u7e54\uff0c\u9019\u4fbf\u662f\u65b0\u9078\u7d44\u7684\u6a19\u8a8c\u3002\u8f49\u540d\u70ba\u65b0\u9078\u7d44\u524d\u7684\u58ec\u751f\u6d6a\u58eb\u7d44\uff0c\u90a3\u6642\u5019\u5df2\u5236\u5b9a\u4e86\u300c\u8aa0\u300d\u5b57\u65d7\u7684\u69cb\u601d [&hellip;]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":191962175,"featured_media":657,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_coblocks_attr":"","_coblocks_dimensions":"","_coblocks_responsive_height":"","_coblocks_accordion_ie_support":"","_jetpack_newsletter_access":"","_jetpack_dont_email_post_to_subs":false,"_jetpack_newsletter_tier_id":0,"_jetpack_memberships_contains_paywalled_content":false,"_wpcom_ai_launchpad_first_post":false,"_jetpack_feature_clip_id":0,"_jetpack_memberships_contains_paid_content":false,"footnotes":"","jetpack_publicize_message":"{title}\n\n{excerpt}\n\n{url}","jetpack_publicize_feature_enabled":true,"jetpack_social_post_already_shared":true,"jetpack_social_options":{"image_generator_settings":{"template":"highway","default_image_id":0,"font":"","enabled":false},"version":2},"_wpas_customize_per_network":false,"jetpack_post_was_ever_published":false},"categories":[755837497],"tags":[755837503,755837504,227201116,41898239,2181662],"class_list":["post-646","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-755837497","tag--makoto","tag-755837504","tag-227201116","tag-41898239","tag-2181662"],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v28.5 -

In the days of the Mibu R\u014dshigumi, Makoto had already been well recognized as the team\u2019s spirit and framework.
