 Isshin Tasuke

Brimming with the Japanese values of "giri" and "ninjō," the fishmonger Tasuke is the epitome of the "Edokko," the son of Edo.A stock character in works set during the time of the third Tokugawa shogun Iemitsu (who ruled from 1623 to 1651), he collaborates with the veteran samurai Ōkubo Hikozaemon.
