the film give more than strong impression that Saito is loner, no family, no interest in woman, nothing to lose.
then he come to the Dr. with his grandson.
i guess that's not totally impossible.
but even if Saito gave birth after the war the children shouldn't be older than the Dr.
any thoughts?
I am he as you are he as you are me and we are all together.
Saito was a real person. He married after the war and had three children. He had nine grandchildren.

I also found in tje Samurai database, this little piece on Yoshimura Kanichiro.
Born: 1840
Died: 1868
Titles: Shinsengumi Investigator
Japanese: 吉村 貫一郎 (Yoshimura Kan'ichirou)
Yoshimura Kanichiro was a Nanbu han samurai who practiced Shinto Ryu in Morioka and Hokushin Itto Ryu in Edo. He left Nanbu han and joined the Shinsengumi in 1865. Despite the fact that he was a Kenjutsu teacher in the Shinsengumi, there is little record of his participation in battle, however his name is seen in some records as a negotiator. Kanichiro was missing during the Battle of Toba-Fushimi. After the Shinsengumi left for Edo, he visited his Nanbu han residence in Osaka and tried to return to Nanbu han, but was denied and he commited Seppuku there.
