和月伸宏
, known as Hajime Saito in the English-language anime dubs, is a fictional character from the "Rurouni Kenshin" manga and anime series created by Nobuhiro Watsuki. Being a fan of the Shinsengumi, Watsuki created Saitō as an anti-heroic and a foil to Himura Kenshin, the main character of the story, while basing him on the real life Shinsengumi member of the same name.
