Peace Maker Kurogane

 . OKITA . Light hearted, girlish, skilled fighter.
Okita seems to serve as the moral and source of "words of advice on 
the show. A bit of a prankster though. 
 . HIJIKATA . Very skilled fighter. Moody, violent,
and a sadist in many ways. A mean bastard with a good heart and a smoking pipe. 
Damn sexy too *.*
These two are much closer than they appear.

In episode 2 Okita gives Hijikata a shoulder massage.
POINT 2 Donated by : Ofuda Master
In episode 7 there's a cute scene where Okita asks Hijikata to go out 
with him. Normally Hijikata would be reluctant or put up a fight. But 
Hijikata goes without even asking what it is. They end up in a candy 
shop. If you're paying attention, you'll notice that while Okita is 
picking out candy, he is holding onto Hijikata's kimono... these two 
are just wayyy to kawaii *^-^* 
POINT 3 SPOILERS!
Towards the last few episodes in the series, there's an all out battle and
Okita gets really hurt. After all the comotion dies down, Hijikata, the so 
called mean, thoughtless and moody, rushes to Okita's side. Cradling him in 
his arms, Hijikata has never looked at anyone with such tenderness and worry 
before. He stays with Okita for a long while, holding him and nursing him 
back to health with his own special medicine. It was too sweet. *.*
POINT 4Donated by : Ofuda Master
As subtle as it is, really tells us that's there's something going 
on between the two of them: In episode 18, After Hijikata and Okita 
finish a skermish with the Choshu ronin, it starts to rain and they 
share an umbrella. This may not seem unsual. However, in Japanese 
culture, sharing an umbrella in the rain is something lovers to do. 
(FYI the Japanese equivalent to a heart and the initials of lovers 
is an umbrella with their names under it  -Rena)
Did I leave out anything?
