Wikipedia definition
1. Onoe Kikugorō VOnoe Kikugorō V (五代目 尾上菊五郎, Godaime Onoe Kikugorō, 4 June 1844 - 18 February 1903) was a Japanese Kabuki actor, one of the three most famous and celebrated of the Meiji period, along with Ichikawa Danjūrō IX and Ichikawa Sadanji I. Unlike most kabuki actors, who specialize in a particular type of role, Kikugorō, as a kaneru yakusha, played both tachiyaku (male heroes) and onnagata (women) roles and was best known for his roles in plays by Kawatake Mokuami.
