The eldest son of Yoshie Saigo, a low-ranking retainer of the Satsuma clan. His imina (personal name) was Takanaga at the time of his coming-of-age ceremony, later changing his name to Takeo, Takamori. His childhood names were Kokichi, and his common names were Yoshinosuke, Zenbei, Yoshie, and Yoshinosuke, changing in order. His pseudonym was Nanshu. Takamori Saigo has the same name as his father, but this is because his close friend Tomomi Yoshii mistakenly submitted his father Yoshie's name when he was awarded a rank in the Charter Oath of the Five Articles, and he has used his father's name ever since. He also temporarily used pseudonyms such as Sanosuke Saigo, Gengo Kikuchi, Sanemon Oshima, and Yoshinosuke Oshima. 【Other】 ◎We do not accept returns due to the buyer's circumstances, such as "it's different from the image," "it doesn't fit," or "it's no longer needed," so please bid carefully.
