Yamaguchi Tatsunosuke (1832-1860), one of the last group of Samurai in the early Meiji period who formed the Shinsengumi patrol group still using traditional weapons. The Bakumatsu warrior Yamaguchi Tatsunosuke was gravely injured in a big battle and fell on his sword rather than being captured. One of his poems: Let a strong wind blow away the thick clouds [of my mind] to give me a glimpse of the bright moon.
