message: Could someone tone down the overdramatic aspects of this article? The influence of certain fictionalized accounts of the Shinsengumi is a little strong...

message: Shinsengumi was never called "Wolves of Mibu", this seems to be a Manga invention.  —Preceding unsigned comment added by 110.134.172.24 (talk) 17:16, 30 December 2010 (UTC)

message: I'm thinking this section might fare better if it breaks off of the current page, as it doesn't relate directly under the Shinsengumi's history. At least then there shouldn't be any big disputes about if the entry is historically accurate or not. I'd like to know what you guys think. (Gantou (talk) 01:39, 13 August 2009 (UTC)
thread_title:  Depictions in media Section 

message: Scenes from the Ikedaya are NOT shown in the RK anime (see: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Talk:Ikedaya_Jiken).  Also, since the Shinsengumi WAS a police force, saying that Saito's post-Shinsengumi job was in the Japanese police is like saying that Saito's post-police job was in the police.

message: "Mannequins dressed in Shinsengumi outfits" The mannequins are wearing "Happi" not "Haori". The Shinsengumi Happi is popular souvenir for foreigners in Kyoto and not accurate historical outfit of Shinsengumi. They wore "Haori" not "Happi" --Hskf4 08:09, 27 November 2006 (UTC)
thread_title: Picture

message: I don't know about anyone else, but I think the main image at the top of the article looks silly. Is there nothing better we can use? Maybe just move an image of one of the statues up? LordAmeth 10:02, 27 February 2007 (UTC)
replies: text: The image at top is factually incorrect version of the haori. Traditionally mountain stripes were only on the sleeves, not the base. Moden day recreations by some indivisuls put the mountains on bottom. Another picture that is factually correct should replace it.Jinnai (talk) 16:15, 5 July 2008 (UTC)

message: Shouldn't someone mention Peacemaker Kurogane in the media section? The Shinsengumi was pretty much the focal point of the plot and heavily dealt with them on a detailed level. RyoRiazaku (talk) 06:30, 2 July 2008 (UTC)

message: Apparently , up to 1945 there was a special police corps also called Shinsengumi . Whether this was the official name or some sort of nickname will have to be established . Here are two occurrences of this Shinsengumi :
1/at http://www.aikidojournal.com/article?articleID=125 , Kishomaru Ueshiba recalls his father in 1942 :
At that time there was a police chief named Kenji Tomita and through this connection my father was invited as a martial arts instructor to teach a group which was similar to the present riot police called the “Shinsengumi.”
2/at http://www.hiranuma.org/english/index_essay.html Takeo Hiranuma has : 
When the guard and I came to the front of the neighboring house burned in the air raid, we saw a group of about thirty policemen named SHINSEN-GUMI, who were surrounded by soldiers with machine guns

message: the Article claims, that the Shinsengumi would have had asagi-iro, an actually **greenish** blue. However, the source cited does **not** include that color - in fact all it says about color and pattern is "Blue and white uniforms". Can someone provide a better source? --89.15.238.3 (talk) 10:34, 17 June 2021 (UTC)

message: Does the section covering the focus on the Shinsengumi in RGG: Ishin deserve mention of the 2023 remake? Is there a style guide for handling video game remakes in other articles? Zetagaming (talk) 23:44, 8 December 2023 (UTC)
