This chapter came to me as a real shocker. I always thought Shigure was an
only child. As the title says, were there any references or perhaps even hints
or foreshadowing that Shigure had a brother?

Was there any reference to Shigure's brother before Chapter 545?


Since he knows Kosaka style, I want to say he's the biological son of her
adoptive father, Hachirobe Kosaka. Pretty sure he alluded to his son being
dead.

There was a reference when Akisame dropped off Shigure at the Kousaka
household. It was confusing, however, because at the time, we learned of her
so called "brother" as Kousaka's number 1 apprentice. Therefore he is not
actually her brother by family register.

Chapter 545 has Shigure calling him Nii-san (for the first time), which made
me think he was actually the son of Kousaka when he really wasn't.
