Birthday: September 8 Zodiac: Virgo Height: 161 cm Weight: 50 kg Murata Tetsuko is a swordsmith in Edo. She is the daughter of renowned swordsmith Murata Jintetsu, and younger sister of Murata Tetsuya, both of which are deceased. She has helped Sakata Gintoki and the Yorozuya on several occasions. Shy and withdrawn, Tetsuko wouldn't even greet Gintoki properly when they first met during the Benizakura arc. However, she is goodhearted, as seen in Episode 61, when she saved Gintoki from Nizou. She talks in a relatively low voice, contrary to her brother who had a hearing problem, and usually ended up shouting while trying to talk normally. Tetsuko made another appearance during the Itou arc, when the Yorozuya visited her along with Hijikata Toushirou, who had been cursed by his new sword. She then displayed a wide knowledge of swords, explaining the history of the hikikomori-possessed cursed sword that was plaguing Hijikata, in Episode 102. Tetsuko was also one of the citizens who helped fight for Kabuki District during the war in manga chapter 303.
Birthday: November 15 Zodiac: Scorpio Height: 181 cm Weight: 70 kg Age: 20's Sakamoto is a former member of the Joi. He is a good-natured man and optimistic to the point of being ridiculous, even in the most dangerous situations. His favorite phrase is "AHAHA! It must be _____". He also has a tendency to misspell names; he calls Gintoki "Kintoki". Gintoki often corrects him, citing that if he were named Kintoki, they would be in some kind of hentai anime (because 'Kin' from 'Kintoki' instead of 'Gin' would make the title 'Kintama', which means 'testicles' instead of 'Gintama', which means 'silver soul'). Despite his goofy nature, Sakamoto is actually a successful businessman in the galaxy. He believes that business is a way of protecting his country. He has a private, well-equipped defensive business fleet. He believes that sacrifices should be made for the good of the community, which is why he chose to abandon his comrades on Earth to travel into space. Sakamoto is shown to be skilled with a pistol in an anime filler episode. His name is based on the historical character Sakamoto Ryoma. Sakamoto speaks in Tosa-ben, much like the inspiration for his character, Sakamoto Ryouma.
