Who was the Strongest Swordsman in Shinsengumi?

Video Description

If you are a fan of samurai and swordsmanship, I’m very sure you know about the famous Mibu Wolves: 新撰組 Shinsengumi. Shinsengumi is super famous and popular in Japan and there are still fan clubs and new movies and dramas about them coming out. They are a group of swordsmen that fought through a turbulent time of Japanese history. But haven’t you ever wondered before… Who was actually the strongest swordsman? So today, I will first briefly explain about the history of Shinsengumi, then introduce the three strongest members of the squad. I will be counting down the three swordsmen by how skillful they were, so I hope you can enjoy this video till the end. The strongest man might actually not be the person you had in mind.... However before I start, I need to make it very clear that no one actually knows who was really the strongest, it’s all just speculation for fun. If you know about any other theories or studies, please let me know in the comments.
