Description
Ōttsumae Kyōdai are the best friends of the Summer Emperor Toshyo.
The two boys are descendants of a small vassal clan of the Taga family, which over the centuries has gained a reputation for unswerving loyalty to the imperial house.

Traditionally, the commander of the imperial guard is chosen from among the younger sons of the Daisu clan (usually the second gento), but the flag-bearer (Hatamochi) is always chosen from the Ōttsumae clan. At this time, the position is held by the father of the two boys, Sato, who also serves as commander since Norinobu left the court.

Yoton (Left) is the older of the two, and also the more serious and thoughtful. A master of the use of short swords, he is convinced that his brother and his imperial majesty are too foolhardy for their role.

Shige(Right) is a few years younger, has quickly demonstrated skills with the spear and the sword and is Toshyo's closest friend, because he shares his sunny and daring character, the two often get into trouble.
