Description | Content |
Article description: (description ) This attribute controls the content of the description and og:description elements. | Something of a popular favorite for inclusion in samurai shows, The Shinsengumi have the advantage of actually having existed. The group, originally called the Roushigumi (lit.: the Roushi group, Roushi being a synonym for Ronin), later changed its name to the Shinsengumi and moved to Kyoto. There, taking the side of the current shogun, they requested and were granted policing powers to deal with the revolutionaries who wished to see the return of the emperor to power. The raid on Ikeda-ya, where the Shinsengumi managed to stop revolutionaries from setting fire to the city, is probably the most well-documented single engagement of the group during their existence. |
