**[00:31] Gu**
*Did I fight to the end?*
**[00:39] Gu**
*Did I do the best I could?*
***SIGN*** A Few Days Ago
**[02:22] Gu**
Sir, at least take off our handcuffs!
**[02:27] Gu**
If we fall overboard like this, we're doomed!
**[02:30] Gu**
There's no need to show mercy to the exiles.
**[02:34] Gu**
Indeed.
**[02:35] Gu**
We're not gonna run away
in the middle of the ocean!
**[02:41] Gu**
Pathetic... I was once the
richest man in Hakozaki,
**[02:44] Gu**
and now I'm exiled along with this scum...
***SIGN*** Former Retainer of the Kamakura Shogunate
Kuchii Jinzaburou
**[02:50] Gu**
We're gonna die!
**[02:52] Gu**
No!
**[02:54] Gu**
Please, sir!
**[02:57] Gu**
We're not going to run now!
**[03:00] Gu**
Very well.
**[03:02] Gu**
Take off their handcuffs.
**[03:03] ---**
Yes, sir.
**[03:05] Gu**
Thank you!
**[03:07] Gu**
We'll never forget this.
**[03:08] Gu**
We owe you one!
**[03:10] Gu**
I wouldn't have done that.
**[03:12] Gu**
What?
**[03:14] Gu**
Do you still think you're a noble's servant?
**[03:17] Gu**
You're just a pitiful prisoner now!
**[03:27] Gu**
Let's do this, guys!
**[03:32] Gu**
Don't mess with Haejirou's gang!
**[03:34] Gu**
This no-name bureaucrat's going
to the bottom of the sea!
**[03:42] Gu**
There're too many people on this ship.
**[03:44] Gu**
Should we offer them to Wadatsumi-sama,
the god of the sea, too?
**[03:55] Gu**
This is great!
**[03:57] Gu**
Save me!
**[03:59] Gu**
Please! I have money!
**[04:01] Gu**
I buried it before I came here!
**[04:18] Gu**
Damn you!
**[04:30] Gu**
Don't mess with us!
**[04:41] Gu**
You, seamen! Helmsmen!
**[04:45] Gu**
If you want to survive, get to work.
**[04:47] Gu**
Take us to the island!
**[04:52] Gu**
Wow... What was that?
**[04:54] Gu**
He was like a demon god...
**[04:57] Gu**
He ain't nothing so fancy.
**[05:00] Gu**
Hey, Kuchii Jinzaburou!
**[05:02] Gu**
You look pathetic!
**[05:05] Gu**
Just two years ago, you were a proud general,
**[05:07] Gu**
leading the war against the pirates!
**[05:11] Gu**
Oh, I see.
**[05:12] Gu**
You're one of the pirates I captured.
***SIGN*** Onitakemaru
**[05:15] Gu**
I wondered why you were being so friendly.
**[05:17] Gu**
What?
**[05:18] Gu**
Did you forget me?
**[05:20] Gu**
I am Onitakemaru,
the greatest pirate in the land!
**[05:23] Gu**
I can't even count how many
pirates I've defeated.
**[05:33] Gu**
We can talk about old times later.
**[05:35] Gu**
For now, focus on getting us to the island.
**[05:39] Gu**
I'll get you eventually.
**[05:44] Gu**
Hey, we're raising the mast!
**[05:47] Gu**
You're crazy! Not in this wind!
**[05:50] Gu**
When I stick something big in a hole,
I don't stop until I'm done!
**[06:21] Gu**
We finally made it.
**[06:23] Gu**
Yeah.
**[06:27] Gu**
That's Tsushima.
**[06:29] Gu**
It looks better than I expected it would.
**[06:32] Gu**
It's supposed to be the
very far end of Japan,
**[06:34] Gu**
so I wondered what I was
getting myself into, but...
**[06:38] Gu**
What is it?
**[06:40] Gu**
Nothing.
**[06:42] Gu**
A great shark!
**[06:45] Gu**
A white shark, huh?
**[06:49] Gi**
That's an umisachihiko.
**[06:52] Gi**
It's been three years since
I've seen one myself.
**[06:54] Gi**
What a surprise.
**[06:56] Gi**
The island must be welcoming
our newest group of exiles.
**[07:01] Gu**
How beautiful!
**[07:03] Gu**
Welcome to Tsushima!
**[07:06] Gu**
I am the daughter of Sou Sukekuni,
the ruler of this island.
**[07:09] Gu**
My name is Teruhi.
***SIGN*** Daughter of Sou Sukekuni, The Local Ruler
Princess Teruhi
**[07:11] Gu**
I have come to welcome you all.
**[07:13] Gu**
You've spent two days aboard
your boat since leaving Hakata.
**[07:16] Gu**
You must be tired.
**[07:18] Gu**
We've prepared to a small
banquet to welcome you.
**[07:22] Gu**
Come this way...
**[07:26] Gu**
Why even think about it?
**[07:28] Gu**
We exiles have nowhere else to go.
**[07:31] Gu**
Let's do what Momotarou did, and go have a
huge party with Otohime at Ryuuguu Palace.
**[07:40] Gu**
That was Urashima Tarou.
**[07:55] Gu**
This is great!
**[07:57] Gu**
It's been two days since I've had food!
**[07:59] Gu**
I'm so glad I survived!
**[08:02] Gu**
They're all so tough...
***SIGN*** Chouminpuku
**[08:04] Gu**
I'm still barely able to stand,
**[08:07] Gu**
and my stomach feels awful...
**[08:09] Gu**
Rich man.
**[08:11] Gu**
Eat up, even if you don't want to.
**[08:13] Gu**
We don't know what's coming tomorrow.
**[08:16] Gi**
Exiles...
**[08:20] Gi**
Is the food to your liking?
**[08:22] Gu**
Otohime-sama!
**[08:24] Gu**
Come here and pour me a drink!
**[08:26] Gu**
Princess Teruhi of the Sou clan, right?
**[08:29] Gu**
Let's hear what this is about.
**[08:31] GI**
You're Kuchii Jinzaburou-sama,
**[08:33] GI**
formerly in the service of
the Kamakura, correct?
**[08:38] GI**
What do you mean by that, exactly?
**[08:41] Gu**
There's no way you didn't
notice that there was nobody
**[08:43] Gu**
from the government aboard that ship.
**[08:45] Gu**
And yet we're being warmly welcomed.
**[08:47] Gu**
There must be some reason.
**[08:50] Gi**
Not at all, Kuchii-sama.
**[08:53] Gi**
We simply wish that all of you will fight with
**[08:57] Gi**
all your strength for
the sake of this island.
**[09:01] Gu**
Fight?
**[09:03] Gu**
Fight what?
**[09:06] Gi**
The Mukuri.
**[09:09] Gu**
Mukuri? The Mongolians?
**[09:12] Gi**
You must have heard the rumors, I'm sure,
**[09:15] Gi**
about a vast army of Mukuri invading
the land of the rising sun.
**[09:20] Gi**
They are almost upon us.
**[09:23] Gi**
I am told the Gappo inlet in Goryeo
is covered with thousands of warships.
***SIGN*** Goryeo Gappo
**[09:30] Gi**
Their first target will be Tsushima.
**[09:35] Gu**
So you asked the Kamakura to exile anybody
who could help in a war to this place?
**[09:41] Gi**
We submitted an official request
through the Dazaifu magistrate,
**[09:44] Gi**
which they could not refuse.
**[09:45] Gi**
You were all to be put to death to begin with.
**[09:50] Gi**
In other words...
**[09:52] Gi**
We saved your lives.
**[10:03] Gu**
I thought it was something like this.
**[10:05] Gu**
Hell no!
**[10:07] Gu**
This is no different than being put to death!
**[10:09] Gu**
You bitch! I'll make you pay for—
**[10:19] Gi**
Now, all of you...
**[10:22] Gi**
Die for the sake of Tsushima.
**[10:31] Gu**
The alcohol wore off.
**[10:32] Gu**
Fight the Mongolians?
**[10:34] Gu**
That's insane.
**[10:35] Gu**
Are they really going to attack?
**[10:38] Gu**
Not after all this time.
**[10:40] Gu**
I heard a rumor an ambassador of theirs
came to us about three years ago,
**[10:43] Gu**
and then nothing.
**[10:44] Gu**
Kuchii-dono, what will you do?
**[10:47] Gu**
Will you join the island's army and fight?
**[10:50] Gu**
I don't know.
**[10:53] Gu**
But I figured something had to be up.
**[10:57] Gu**
I wouldn't normally get off
with just exile for what I did.
**[11:00] Gu**
It's the same for you all, right?
**[11:24] Gi**
You did well to endure all that, Princess.
**[11:28] Gi**
Otaki.
**[11:30] Gi**
I don't like murder.
**[11:32] Gi**
No, this is only the beginning, I'm sure.
**[11:35] Gi**
Once the war starts, even more will...
**[11:39] Gi**
The bath is ready.
**[11:41] Gi**
Warm yourself and calm down.
**[11:57] Gi**
By the way, where is this Tsushima place?
**[12:01] Gi**
You know, monk?
**[12:02] Gi**
No.
**[12:03] Gi**
I don't know much about faraway lands.
**[12:06] Gi**
You?
**[12:07] Gi**
It's my first time outside
the land I was born in.
**[12:11] Gi**
Hey, you old geezer. Do you know?
**[12:14] Gi**
Who do you think you're talking to, brat?
**[12:16] Gi**
I'm a merchant, unlike you country hicks!
**[12:20] Gi**
I owned a map of Japan.
**[12:23] Gi**
The island of Tsushima is on the right side,
***SIGN*** Hakata
***SIGN*** Iki
***SIGN*** Tsushima
***SIGN*** Goryeo
**[12:26] Gi**
that is, the west side,
**[12:28] Gi**
in between Goryeo and Kyuushuu.
**[12:31] Gi**
So when merchant ships travel
between Goryeo and Hakata,
**[12:35] Gi**
they first pass through Tsushima.
**[12:38] Gi**
I never imagined I'd be here
under such circumstances, though.
**[12:43] Gi**
It's all the fault of those eastern
barbarians in the Kamakura.
**[12:48] Gi**
The way they run their government...
**[12:51] Gi**
Right, right.
**[12:53] Gi**
If the Mongolian Navy is truly on its way,
**[12:56] Gi**
it's true that this island
will be their first stop.
**[12:59] Gi**
But that doesn't make
**[13:01] Gi**
the idea of dying in a place you've
got nothing to do with any less scary.
**[13:06] Gi**
* So now I'm a prisoner, sent all the way*
* to the end of Japan to fight a war...*
**[13:12] Gi**
*No matter where I go, it's another war...*
**[13:39] Gi**
*What will happen to Tsushima?*
**[13:43] Gi**
*Will the Mukuri take it?*
**[13:45] Gi**
*The land, the people?*
**[13:48] Gi**
*No, maybe the Mukuri will never come.*
**[13:53] Gi**
*Maybe we're doing this for nothing...*
**[13:57] Gi**
Otaki, you get some rest, as well.
**[14:00] Gi**
Very well.
**[14:06] Gi**
*I'm no good...*
**[14:09] Gi**
*I ran again.*
**[14:11] Gi**
* If someone throws a stone at*
* you, you can close your eyes,*
**[14:14] Gi**
*but it will still hit you...*
**[14:19] Gi**
Princess!
**[14:21] Gi**
Princess, run—
**[14:23] Gi**
Otaki?!
**[14:31] Gi**
Princess!
**[14:32] Gi**
Run—
**[14:47] Gi**
Intruders!
**[14:49] Gi**
The princess!
**[14:50] Gi**
Hurry!
**[14:51] Gi**
Hilarious. The guards left.
**[14:54] Gi**
They're so disorganized...
**[14:56] Gi**
But it's perfect for us.
**[15:00] Gi**
Somebody's trying to get
into the princess's bed?
**[15:03] Gi**
The noise is coming from over there.
**[15:05] Gi**
The soldiers are just
running around helpless.
**[15:07] Gi**
You can see them?
**[15:08] Gi**
Yeah.
**[15:10] Gi**
I can see at night.
**[15:13] Gi**
Well, either way, it's good news for us.
**[15:16] Gi**
Heaven has favored us.
**[15:17] Gi**
The Buddha is on our side.
**[15:19] Gi**
Let's raid the fisherman's homes and have
them send us back to Hakata by boat!
**[15:23] Gi**
Wait, you're going to try and cross
those awful seas in a fisherman's boat?
**[15:27] Gi**
They say that one out of three of the
bigger ships don't survive the trip.
**[15:31] Gi**
You might be better off
fighting the Mongolians.
**[15:33] Gi**
You just want to fight a war, don't you?
**[15:37] Gi**
Don't be stupid.
**[15:38] Gi**
What would be in it for me?
**[15:39] Gi**
I don't know...
**[15:41] Gi**
You look like a dog that's found its prey.
**[15:45] Gi**
So do you.
**[15:46] Gi**
The three of us will be splitting up.
**[15:49] Gi**
We're bandits and mountain monks.
**[15:51] Gi**
We can hide in the mountains
if we can't take a boat.
**[15:53] Gi**
Well, you guys...
**[15:54] Gi**
Farewell.
**[15:55] Gi**
Yeah.
**[15:57] Gi**
Now, I'm going to kill some time...
**[16:01] Gi**
by burning this whole place to the ground.
**[16:07] Gi**
Look carefully!
**[16:08] Gi**
The intruders are somewhere in this darkness.
**[16:11] Gi**
Find them!
**[16:12] Gi**
I have shamed myself!
***SIGN*** Princess Teruhi's Servant
Kaitani Gontarou
**[16:14] Gi**
Our lord entrusted me with the princess, but...
**[16:19] Gi**
The exiles? Curse them!
**[16:22] Gi**
Rebelling now, of all times!
**[16:24] Gi**
Gontarou-dono, look!
**[16:27] Gi**
That's her!
**[16:28] Gi**
Over there!
**[16:30] Gi**
The fire helped us!
**[16:32] Gi**
Princess, I'm coming!
**[16:35] Gi**
We're heading to the beach, fast.
**[16:36] Gi**
Get close to the hostage.
They can't shoot at her.
**[16:40] Gi**
*A foreign language...*
**[16:42] Gu**
There are only six of them!
**[16:43] Gu**
Don't use your bows!
**[16:45] Gu**
Get around them and surround them!
**[16:52] Gu**
They're skilled warriors?!
**[16:54] Gu**
Pathetic.
**[17:07] Gu**
Not bad, I guess.
**[17:26] Gu**
So that's the warrior from the east?
**[17:29] Gu**
He uses the Gikei style.
**[17:31] Gu**
Gikei?
**[17:32] Gu**
I've heard rumors of it.
**[17:34] Gu**
Gikei is the style used by Yoshitsune.
**[17:38] Gu**
A style of fighting created
by the great general
**[17:40] Gu**
of the Genji a century ago,
Genkurou Yoshitsune.
**[17:45] Gu**
Genkurou Yoshitsune?
**[17:58] Gu**
*This one's...*
**[18:34] Gu**
So you use the Gikei style, as well?
**[18:58] Gu**
Foreign ships?
**[19:04] Gu**
Who was that?
**[19:08] Gu**
In the end, you wound up getting involved.
**[19:12] Gu**
Well, it doesn't matter to me,
as long as it's fun.
**[19:17] Gu**
I'm not like you.
**[19:41] Gi**
Otaki, I'm sorry.
**[19:43] Gi**
You must have suffered so much...
**[19:48] Gi**
All of these people were born
and raised on this island.
**[19:51] Gi**
I've known them all since I was a child.
**[19:58] Gi**
Gontarou?
**[20:00] Gi**
Give them a proper burial.
**[20:03] Gi**
War is a sad thing.
**[20:06] Gu**
War?
**[20:07] Gu**
Fool, this was just a little scrap.
**[20:10] Gu**
War is a whole different beast.
**[20:13] Gu**
It takes more people, more resources,
and a stronger mind.
**[20:19] Gu**
You don't know a damn thing,
**[20:21] Gu**
so I don't know where you get off
telling others to fight for you.
**[20:25] Gu**
But everyone here did the best
they could before they died.
**[20:30] Gu**
I won't say they're happy about it,
**[20:32] Gu**
but I'm sure they have no regrets.
**[20:37] Gu**
Do you have the stomach to be the
person they'd want you to be?
**[20:46] Gi**
I have a duty...
**[20:49] Gi**
to protect this island and the people on it.
**[20:55] Gi**
I won't lose anyone else!
**[20:58] Gi**
And you're going to work hard
to help me, Kuchii Jinzaburou!
**[21:04] Gi**
You did well last night.
**[21:07] Gi**
I shall give you a reward later.
**[21:13] Gu**
That's great.
**[21:15] Gu**
The famous Kuchii Jinzaburou-sama,
receiving a reward from a little girl.
**[21:20] Gi**
I'm not famous at all.
**[21:23] Gi**
Princess!
**[21:25] Gi**
Kano?
**[21:26] Gi**
You're supposed to be at the capital!
***SIGN*** Princess Teruhi's Servant
Kano
**[21:28] Gi**
They're coming!
**[21:31] Gi**
A message from from
the ones watching Goryeo.
**[21:36] Gi**
Warships are leaving Gappo
port one after another.
**[21:41] Gi**
The Mongolians are coming!
**[21:45] Gi**
*October 3rd. The 11th year of the Bun'ei era.*
**[21:50] Gi**
* 900 Mongolian warships that*
