(Flashback) [00:27] Okita
    That's...
(Flashback) [00:32] Okita
    Hijikata-san's...
[00:44] Saito
    There you are.
[00:47] Okita
    Saito-san.
[00:50] Saito
    What's the matter? Something on your mind?
[00:54] Okita
    Yeah, sort of.
[00:57] Okita
    I was just thinking about Hijikata-san.
[01:02] Okita
    Seriously, where the heck is he?
[01:05] Okita
    Making us all worry like this...
[01:09] Saito
    Knowing him, he'll randomly
    turn up one of these days.
[01:14] Okita
    You're probably right.
[01:17] Okita
    I'll just have to punch the
    crap out of him when he does.

SIGN    Ikedaya
[03:01] Takasugi
    This is the area Seimei mentioned, right?
[03:04] Katsura
    Yeah. This is where he said
    he sensed the chronometer.
[03:07] Saito
    Takasugi! Katsura!
[03:11] Takasugi
    The Shinsengumi!
[03:13] Saito
    So wherever the chronometer is,
    we'll find you there, huh?
[03:17] Okita
    We let you go last time,
[03:20] Okita
    but I'll cut you down today!
[03:23] Takasugi
    Not if I can help it.
[03:25] Takasugi
    I won't let you guys have the chronometer!
[03:27] Okita
    That's what I was going to say.
    The chronometer will be our—
(Flashback) [03:33] Mugensai
    Are you all familiar with the pocket watch
(Flashback) [03:35] Mugensai
    known as the chronometer
    that my predecessor had?
(Flashback) [03:39] Mugensai
    With that watch, time can
    be controlled at will.
[03:45] Okita
    What if I could use that thing
    to see Hijikata-san again?
[03:50] Takasugi
    Stop spacing out!
[04:05] Takasugi & Okita
    The chronometer!
[04:11] Katsura
    He got the chronometer!
[04:12] Takasugi
    Damn it!
[04:15] Okita
    Yes! I finally got the chronometer!
[04:21] Saito
    Look out!
[04:33] Saito
    Okita!
[04:36] Takasugi
    What's going to happen to Okita?
[04:38] Katsura
    Either he'll be stuck wandering
    between time and space,
[04:42] Katsura
    or he's been sent to another time period.
[04:46] Saito
    Okita...
SIGN    Ikedaya
[05:00] Okita
    Ow...
[05:04] Okita
    Where am I?
[05:08] Okita
    Ikedaya? Wasn't I just here?
[05:13] Okita
    Where are Saito-san,
    Takasugi, and the others?
[05:17] Okita
    And the chronometer!
[05:23] Okita
    It's gone!
[05:24] Okita
    Oh, that's right.
[05:26] Okita
    I fell into one of the space-time
    rifts, which means...
[05:39] Okita
    The town seems the same,
    yet something feels off.
[05:44] Okita
    And normally I'd be able to see Susanoo
    Castle over in the distance there.
[05:50] Okita
    So this is another world's Kyoto?
[05:54] Saito
    We're here on official business.
[05:57] Hijikata
    Is the owner of this establishment here?
[05:59] Shop Worker
    Yes, please wait a moment.
[06:01] Okita
    That's... the Shinsengumi?
[06:05] Okita
    Saito-san and...
[06:11] Okita
    Hijikata-san!
[06:15] Okita
    Hijikata-san!
[06:22] Hijikata
    Soji?
[06:27] Hijikata
    Soji, what are you doing here?
[06:36] Okita
    Oh, sorry. I was so happy to see
    you that I couldn't help myself.
[06:40] Hijikata
    Hitting people when you're
    happy makes you crazy!
[06:43] Kondo
    What's all the racket?
[06:47] Okita
    Kondo-san!
[06:49] Kondo
    Soji acting crazy is nothing new.
[06:52] Hijikata
    Yeah, that's true.
[06:54] Hijikata
    Good grief.
[06:57] Hijikata
    What are you doing here, anyway?
[07:01] Hijikata
    Didn't you go to a hot spring outside
    Kyoto to help with your lung illness?
[07:07] Okita
    Illness? Hot spring?
[07:11] Hijikata
    And what the heck is with that weird outfit?
[07:15] Hijikata
    It's so gaudy.
[07:17] Okita
    Huh?
[07:18] Okita
    Well...
[07:20] Okita
    You see, th-this is all the
    r-rage at the hot spring.
[07:40] Saito
    What are you staring at?
    Time to go on our rounds.
[07:44] Okita
    Oh, right!
[07:49] Saito
    How are you feeling?
[07:52] Saito
    I thought you were going to spend
    a bit more time at the hot spring.
[07:55] Okita
    Oh, well... I wouldn't say
    I'm fully back to health yet.
[08:02] Okita
    I get it... The version of me here is sick.
[08:06] Okita
    And he's away from the squad
    right now, recuperating.
[08:10] Okita
    But that works out well for me.
[08:13] Okita
    This means I can at least pretend to
    be part of this Shinsengumi for now.
[08:18] Okita
    Also, I have to find a way to
    get back to my own time.
[08:25] Woman
    Thief!
[08:29] Ronin
    Huh?
[08:33] Ronin
    The Shinsengumi!
[08:37] Woman
    Thank you so much!
[08:38] Okita
    Please be careful.
[08:40] Okita
    There are lots of lawless ronin around here.
[08:43] Woman
    I will. Thank you very
    much again, noble samurai.
[08:49] Okita
    Noble samurai, huh?
[08:51] Okita
    The Shinsengumi's duty to protect the
    city's peace hasn't changed here, either.
[08:57] Saito
    You took care of that quickly, as usual.
[09:00] Saito
    Guess there's no need to
    worry about your illness.
[09:06] Soldier A
    Okita-san, Saito-san, please come with me.
[09:10] Saito
    What is it?
[09:11] Soldier A
    It's Hijikata-san.
SIGN    Ikedaya
[09:16] Hijikata
    I can't overlook such slights
    against the Tokugawa.
[09:19] Ronin A
    What?
[09:20] Ronin D
    Drop the act, you stupid Mibu Wolf!
[09:24] Hijikata
    Drawing your swords on me?
[09:28] Hijikata
    I will teach you to regret that.
[09:31] Okita
    Hijikata-san!
[09:33] Okita
    I'll help you.
[09:35] Hijikata
    I don't need your help.
[09:36] Hijikata
    I can handle filth like this on my own.
[09:38] Okita
    I can't let you do that.
    Kondo-san would be angry with me.
[09:42] Hijikata
    Then let him.
[09:43] Okita
    Not a chance.
[09:44] Okita
    Besides, you can't handle
    this many on your own.
[09:47] Hijikata
    Huh? Are you insulting my abilities?
[09:50] Okita
    I'm not insulting you.
    I'm only stating the truth.
[09:52] Hijikata
    Excuse me?
[09:53] Okita
    Anyway, let's handle this together.
[09:55] Hijikata
    No, I can do it myself.
[09:57] Okita
    It'll be more efficient with the two of us.
[09:59] Hijikata
    Who cares about efficiency?
[10:01] Ronin B
    Stop messing around, you assholes!
[10:09] Okita
    He always fights so recklessly.
[10:12] Ronin G
    Don't just stand there, you moron!
[10:20] Hijikata
    That Soji... Always playing around.
[10:23] Okita
    Take that!
[10:33] Saito
    Hijikata-san, are you all right?
[10:35] Hijikata
    Oh, you're here too, Saito?
[10:37] Saito
    Okita is always so damn fast.
[10:41] Saito
    It's hard to believe he's sick at all.
[10:48] Ronin D
    Damn it. We'll get you for this!
[10:51] Okita
    All taken care of, right, Hijikata-san?
[10:54] Hijikata
    Soji.
[10:55] Okita
    Yes?
[10:57] Hijikata
    You...
[11:02] Hijikata
    Nothing, never mind.
[11:04] Hijikata
    We'll spar when we get back to headquarters.
[11:07] Okita
    Oh, okay.
[11:11] Okita
    Isn't this the place where
    I arrived when I got here?
SIGN    Ikedaya
[11:23] Okita
    Was that a space-time rift I just saw?
[11:28] Okita
    Maybe if I wait here a bit longer,
    I'll be able to go back?
[11:32] Hijikata
    Hey, what's the hold-up, Soji?
[11:33] Okita
    Oh, coming!
SIGN    CRISIS
[12:02] Okita
    Hijikata-san is definitely tough.
[12:08] Okita
    But this is so much fun!
[12:12] Okita
    Staying here might not be so bad.
[12:17] Yamazaki
    Kondo-san.
[12:19] Yamazaki
    I've ascertained the
    anti-shogunate ronin's plans.
[12:23] Kondo
    Good work. Tell me more about it.
[12:25] Yamazaki
    And...
[12:28] Kondo
    What is it?
[12:31] Yamazaki
    Well, this arrived a bit ago.
[12:42] Hijikata
    Soji...
[12:44] Okita
    What is it?
[12:46] Hijikata
    Who are you?
[12:51] Okita
    What are you talking about, Hijikata-san?
[12:54] Okita
    I'm Okita Soji, captain of the
    1st division of the Shinsengumi.
[13:05] Hijikata
    That's certainly true.
[13:10] Kondo
    You two!
[13:12] Kondo
    Got a moment?
SIGN    Kondo Isami-dono
[13:19] Okita
    What is this?
[13:22] Kondo
    A letter from Soji, who's undergoing
    the bathing cure outside Kyoto.
[13:27] Hijikata
    How can that be?
[13:29] Kondo
    It says he'll be back in about two weeks.
[13:36] Kondo
    But, Soji, you're right here.
[13:40] Okita
    I changed my mind after I sent that.
[13:43] Okita
    I can't believe it took so long to get here.
[13:46] Kondo
    Are you trying to trick me?
[13:56] Kondo
    Tell me the truth.
[13:59] Okita
    Okay...
[14:01] Okita
    You probably won't believe me, though.
[14:10] Kondo
    You traveled through time
[14:13] Kondo
    and came here from a world
    different from this one?
[14:17] Kondo
    The chronometer, space-time rifts...
[14:21] Kondo
    It's definitely hard to believe.
[14:26] Kondo
    But after seeing you show up
    today in those weird clothes,
SIGN    Kondo Isami-dono
[14:30] Kondo
    and receiving this letter from Soji...
[14:32] Kondo
    If what you say is true, it all makes sense.
[14:37] Hijikata
    It also explains the strange
    feeling I've been having.
[14:40] Hijikata
    You're definitely Soji,
    but you're not the Soji we know.
[14:49] Kondo
    Is there a way to return you to your world?
[14:52] Okita
    About that...
[14:57] Okita
    I might be able to go back that way, but...
[15:05] Kondo
    The Shinsengumi will be heading out shortly
[15:08] Kondo
    to subdue some ronin who plan
    to overthrow the shogunate.
[15:12] Kondo
    But you'll be staying here, Soji.
[15:14] Okita
    Why? I'm a member of the Shinsengumi.
[15:18] Okita
    I want to be helpful to you and Hijikata-san!
[15:21] Kondo
    That's exactly why.
[15:24] Kondo
    You have your own world that you live in,
[15:26] Kondo
    and I'm sure you have things
    you need to do there.
[15:29] Kondo
    I can't take along someone
    who isn't clear-headed.
[15:46] Hijikata
    We're heading out now.
[15:48] Okita
    Hijikata-san...
[15:51] Okita
    Please don't die.
[15:52] Hijikata
    Huh?
[15:54] Okita
    You're the Demon Vice Commander
    of the Shinsengumi.
[15:56] Okita
    But you just have to go and...
[16:00] Okita
    It's annoying.
[16:01] Okita
    The duties increase, the papers stack up,
[16:04] Okita
    and I have to keep the books
    after morning practice!
[16:07] Okita
    It's weird, and I feel like I'm going crazy.
[16:11] Okita
    Without you around...
[16:13] Okita
    Without you...
[16:15] Hijikata
    Soji.
[16:22] Okita
    Ow...
[16:26] Hijikata
    That's payback for this afternoon.
[16:28] Hijikata
    I'm not gonna die so easily.
[16:31] Hijikata
    Not even in your world. Got it?
SIGN    Ikedaya
[16:40] Kondo
    We're here on official business!
[17:11] Ronin
    Wh-Who the hell are you?
[17:23] Kondo
    You've made your decision, then.
[17:24] Hijikata
    That's a good look for you, y'know.
[17:30] Hijikata
    What's that?
[17:32] Kondo
    Is this how you travel through time?
[17:34] Okita
    Kondo-san, Hijikata-san.
[17:47] Kondo
    Captain of the 1st division of
    the Shinsengumi, Okita Soji!
[17:50] Hijikata
    Go!
SIGN    Ikedaya
[18:07] Takasugi
    Okita...
[18:12] Takasugi
    Huh?
[18:16] Saito
    Okita?
[18:19] Okita
    Looks like I've made it back to
    my world and where I was before.
[18:26] Takasugi
    You little... How dare you look so carefree
    after landing on someone's face?!
[18:31] ---
    Wait...
[18:33] Takasugi
    Did you see something interesting
    in the space-time rift?
[18:38] Okita
    Something like that.
[18:41] Okita
    Saito-san, let's withdraw for today.
[18:44] Okita
    The chronometer's disappeared, anyway.
[18:46] Saito
    R-Right.
[18:51] Saito
    So that's what happened...
[18:54] Okita
    Perhaps my strong desire to see Hijikata-san
[18:57] Okita
    sent me to another world to see him.
[18:59] Okita
    And when I wished strongly
    enough to come back, I did.
[19:05] Saito
    That could be.
[19:08] Okita
    The other Hijikata-san said
    that he wouldn't die so easily.
[19:14] Okita
    So we should stop worrying and wait.
[19:17] Okita
    For when he randomly shows up.
[19:21] Okita
    And when that happens,
[19:24] Okita
    I'll punch the crap out of him!
[21:01] Okita
    You're so cute.
[21:04] Kondo
    What's going on, Soji?
[21:05] Okita
    Just look at him! Isn't he cute?
[21:08] Hijikata
    A stray dog?
[21:09] Okita
    I found him while I was out on patrol.
[21:11] Okita
    The poor thing had been tossed
    in a plain wooden box.
[21:15] Okita
    Look, that's Kondo-san. He's the most
    important person in the Shinsengumi.
[21:21] Kondo
    He's cute.
[21:24] Okita
    And that one over there is Hijikata-san.
[21:26] Okita
    He's called the Demon Vice
    Commander of the Shinsengumi.
[21:31] Hijikata
    Huh? Why is he hostile toward me?
[21:33] Kondo
    Maybe it's because your face is scary?
[21:37] Hijikata
    So fresh, it's jumping off the plate.
[21:38] Okita
    Please don't talk like
    he's a piece of sashimi.
[21:41] Kondo
    Soji, are you going to keep him?
[21:43] Okita
    Of course I am! I can't leave such
    a helpless little guy all alone.
[21:47] Hijikata
    You seem to be taking this pretty
    lightly. Can you handle it?
[21:50] Kondo
    Which reminds me, Toshi, didn't you
    also have an abandoned dog you took in?
[21:53] Hijikata
    Yeah.
[21:54] Okita
    You helped him when he was injured.
[21:57] Okita
    It was surprisingly sweet of you.
[21:59] Kondo
    Wasn't he called...
[22:01] Hijikata
    Don't say it!
[22:01] Okita
    Toshio! it was Toshio!
[22:04] Kondo
    That's right, it was Toshio.
[22:06] Okita
    I'm the one who named him.
[22:08] Okita
    Since he was Hijikata Toshizo's dog,
    I called him Hijikata Toshio.
[22:12] Hijikata
    Do you know how much hell you put me
    through by naming him that first?!
[22:15] Kondo
    You could've just renamed him.
[22:17] Hijikata
    He didn't respond to the
    other name I gave him.
[22:20] Hijikata
    I came up with a great name, too.
[22:22] Okita
    You still haven't let it go, huh?
[22:23] Hijikata
    Your taste is just twisted, anyway.
[22:26] Hijikata
    You even gave your own cat a weird name.
[22:28] Kondo
    Yeah, that's true.
[22:30] Kondo
    When I saw something black hiding in
    the shadows and you calling it "Hijiki,"
[22:36] Kondo
    I thought, "Well, it's finally happened."
[22:39] Okita
    It was a black cat, so I
    thought Hijiki fit perfectly.
[22:43] Okita
    There, there. I'll give you a good name, too.
[22:46] Hijikata
    Wait, Soji. I'll come up with a name.
[22:48] Okita
    But I'm the one who found him.
[22:49] Hijikata
    You're just going to give him
    a weird name, anyway.
[22:52] Hijikata
    I know. He has a pretty rough-looking
    face, so I'll call him "Ruff."
[22:55] Okita
    Ruff? Call a dog Ruff?
    That's just ridiculous.
[22:59] Hijikata
    You're one to talk!
[23:00] Kondo
    Come, now. How about we split
    the difference, and I'll name him?
[23:03] Okita
    What do you mean, split the difference?
[23:04] Kondo
    He's a brown shiba, so we'll call him "Chashiba."
[23:07] Hijikata
    That's just as bad!
[23:08] Kondo
    Then how about Chashibu?
[23:10] Okita
    What's that supposed to mean?
[23:11] Okita
    You two are hopeless.
[23:13] Okita
    Oh, I know. Why don't we have him
    decide for himself what name he likes?
[23:17] Kondo
    What do you mean?
[23:19] Okita
    We'll each pick a name, and whoever
    he comes to is the name he'll have.
[23:23] Hijikata
    That sounds fair.
[23:25] Kondo
    Fine.
[23:25] Okita
    Okay!
[23:27] Okita
    Now, let the abandoned
    puppy naming contest begin!
[23:31] Kondo
    Okay, over here, Chashibu!
[23:32] Hijikata
    Come to me, Ruff!
[23:34] Okita
    Over here, Osashimi.
[23:35] Hijikata
    Why "Osashimi"?
[23:36] Okita
    'Cause he's fresh.
[23:38] Hijikata
    That's what I said earlier!
[23:39] Kondo
    Chashibu! That's it, Chashibu!
[23:41] Hijikata
    Ruff! Ruff! Ruff, Ruff!
[23:42] Okita
    Osashimi, Osashimi.
[23:50] Mikado
    I'll go with you. Will that work for you?
