Eldest son of Takamori Saigo, a lower-ranking samurai of the Satsuma Domain in Satsuma Province. His given name at his coming-of-age ceremony was Takayoshi, later changed to Takeo and then Takamori. His childhood name was Kichiyoshi, and his common names were successively changed to Kinosuke, Zenbei, Kichibei, and Kinosuke. His pseudonym was Nanshu. Takamori Saigo shared the same name as his father because when he was awarded a rank under the Imperial Restoration statutes, his close friend Tomomi Yoshii mistakenly submitted his father's name, Kichibei, and he adopted his father's name thereafter. He also used aliases such as Saigo Sansuke, Gengo Kikuchi, Sanuemon Oshima, and Kichinosuke Oshima for a time. 【Other】 ◎We do not accept returns for reasons such as "different from image," "size does not fit," or "no longer needed."
