Naotsugu Miura

Naotsugu’s Story Role

The rightful heir to the Miura family legacy, Naotsugu serves as both a samurai and a civil administrator for the shogunate, introduced in Episode 5 of Season 1. His unusual warmth toward people of all social classes marks him as peculiar by the standards of his peers. Beneath that approachable exterior, however, lie two defining obsessions: a deep fixation on swords and a burning desire to reconnect with a long-lost older brother, whose absence haunts him. His real birth name is Airmori, a detail revealed in Episode 6 that adds another quiet layer to who he truly is. He eventually marries Kinu, formerly known as the Harlot, a relationship that speaks to his rejection of social prejudice.

Naotsugu’s Personality

Where most men of his rank keep commoners and the lower classes at arm’s length, Naotsugu treats everyone with a disarming decency. TV Tropes aptly labels him a genuine “Nice Guy,” noting this quality is precisely why Yotaka (Kinu) falls in love with him. His sword obsession is not mere vanity; it ties directly into his search for his older brother and reflects his need to understand a family history that was severed too soon. He is a man holding both administrative duty and personal longing in careful balance.
