Saitoh
Hajime
Alias:
Mibu no Ookami (Wolf of Mibu)
Looks:
Severe. He's reasonably tall, with slicked-back black hair (except
one or two bangs), and finely-boned. Usually dressed in policeman
outfit or the Shinsengumi typic robes (add a long ponytail in that
case). Permanently serious or smirking, usually has a cigarette
handy (take this in consideration if you have weak lungs like me).
Brains:
Impressive. He's a superb spy (former Shinsengumi captain), current
agent of the Meiji government, so the Wolf must constantly sharpen
his fangs to survive in this muddy area. Extremely cunning, knows
how to talk to people and comes with good plans on pinches. Far one
of the most intelligent guys in RK along with Shishi-o or Enishi.
Personality:
Mostly ruthless, Saitou-san has his own code of justice and acting,
addaptating it to the circumstances. Unless Kenshin, he's ready to
kill the ones who refuse to see the way, by his code of Aku.Zoku.Zan
(Kill Evil Instantly). May show a slightly softer side to persons
like Okita-kun, Tokio or his daughters.
Cooking
- Home Economics:
It's suggested that he's pretty much a liker of order and cleaning,
as a good policeman is. Noted?
Fighting
skills:
Master of the ultra-fast and ultra-strong Gatotsu technique, whose
full potential wasn't shown in the anime (duh!!). In the manga, when
fighting Usui, Saitou didn't impale him like in the TV aseries: he
RIPPED the guy's body in TWO, and impale the UPPER part. I couldn't
believe it when I saw the scan. Even Kenshin had to see Gods to
defeat Saitou.
Special
ablilites: No
magical or superhuman ones (Thank god, some say). I'll count his
coolness everywhere, and how the hell did he survive when Houji
destructed the arena where Shishio and Kenshin fought?
Competiton:
Sorry gals. Saitou is MARRIED, for crying it loud! In Kenshin's
words: "She's gotta be a goddess if she's married to HIM".
Though she never appears in RK itself, in the fics Takagi Tokio is
portrayed as a woman of a will as strong as her husband's, silk
glove over the iron hand. So I don't think he'll be willing to leave
Tokio-san for a girl he barely knows.
In-Laws:
None is known about Saitou's real family aside of Tokio. Maybe Okita-kun,
his loyal assistant, could count as a sort of younger brother, but
it's only a possibility.
Sex:
Like Catherine Bloom said in the MP for Dorothy Catalonia,
"He's the one who's gonna be in charge". Saitou would try
to give a new meaning to the use of "handcuffs", in
example, so he'll be mostly in control of the sexual encounters from
the start to the end. Maybe he'll test your stamina and imagination
to their extremes, too.
Overall:
Avoid this man if you're not likely to put up with Saitou's dominant
personality, or may doubt at a difficult situation. The Wolf of
Miburo isn't much willing to be tamed by a porcelain doll. If you
think that you have the requirements (or think you're a Goddess ^^),
no one should stop you, ladies. But even if you do have them, be
warned that Saitou may be 70% of time far away from you, in his
mission to make the bad guys see how sharp his teeth are, by his
favourite phrase: Aku.Zoku.Zan.
