Saitō Hajime is a fictional character in the anime and manga series Rurouni Kenshin created by Nobuhiro Watsuki.
His name is given as Hajime Saitō in Western-order, which is the chosen order used in the English anime.
Saitō Hajime (1844-1915) was an actual historic figure of the Meiji era, and a number of details presented in the fictional characters are based on facts.
When creating the character Watsuki used the concept of "anti-hero", much like The Punisher, Frank Castle, of Marvel Comics fame, from whom he drew inspiration.Watsuki considers Saitō as the "curse" of the villains in the series as he always ends defeating the enemies who believe they are the strongest. The Gatotsu sword technique that Saitō uses in the series is similar to the description of his original sword technique, but is purely fictional, and not entirely accurate to real sword fighting.
