*Clouds shroud a night with a waning
moon quivering in the haze*
**[00:45] ---**
*A cruel trap involving
a pair of crucified fledglings*
**[00:55] ---**
*Oh, since smoldering feelings
lie firmly in their hearts...*
**[01:07] ---**
*...destruction!*
**[01:08] ---**
*Gently as the water, severely as a flower*
**[01:14] ---**
*pierce with a trembling blade*
**[01:19] ---**
*Even when I shut the fated
tears deep within my eyes*
**[01:25] ---**
*my eyelids still remember you*
**[01:42] ---**
"A Chance Meeting in the Next World"
**[02:07] ---**
*She hasn't changed a bit...*
**[02:15] ---**
Hey, Kouga.
**[02:23] ---**
We're at Hattori Hanzo-*sama*'s residence.
**[02:29] ---**
"Hattori Hanzo's Sunpu Residence"
**[02:41] ---**
Iga-no-Oboro, may I enter?
**[02:45] ---**
Yes.
**[03:02] ---**
I am Kyohachiro, son of the
second-generation Hanzo Masanari.
**[03:07] ---**
I am now son to the
fourth-generation Masahiro.
**[03:11] ---**
It is nice to meet you...
**[03:14] ---**
Oh. I guess you do not remember me...
**[03:39] ---**
All that has happened...
**[03:41] ---**
I can only assume you bear some hatred for us
**[03:45] ---**
for driving your clan
into the jaws of death...
**[03:53] ---**
It cannot be helped...
**[04:03] ---**
Where is your sword?
**[04:06] ---**
I do not have one...
**[04:09] ---**
I see...
**[04:13] ---**
Then take this.
**[04:17] ---**
It bears no name, but it is a fine sword.
**[04:26] ---**
I thank you.
**[04:32] ---**
Is there anything you would like?
**[04:54] ---**
How is Kouga Gennosuke?
**[04:56] ---**
Just barely conscious. However...
**[05:01] ---**
Then bring him quickly. He need simply stand.
**[05:06] ---**
Understood.
**[05:23] ---**
*Truly as quick as a whirlwind...*
**[05:26] ---**
*To think that such a tragic end
would come within a mere 10 days...*
**[05:36] ---**
"Kouga Gennosuke"
**[05:39] ---**
"Oboro"
**[06:13] ---**
*The harsh winter is ending at last...*
**[06:18] ---**
*How long I have looked
forward to this season...*
**[07:02] ---**
Oboro-*dono*.
**[08:40] ---**
No, it was very tranquil...
**[09:23] ---**
"West of Sunpu Castle - Abekawa River"
**[09:34] ---**
We were simply on our way to Ise.
**[09:37] ---**
It was just by sheer coincidence
that we became involved in this feud.
**[09:43] ---**
As you are the referee for this war,
**[09:48] ---**
we very much wanted you to see
**[09:51] ---**
that we've taken no part in this duel,
**[09:55] ---**
so that you may serve as
a witness for the retired shogun...
**[10:02] ---**
I understand.
**[10:05] ---**
K-Kouga Gennosuke has been
blinded and gravely injured by the Iga,
**[10:13] ---**
but that is just another part
of a *ninpou* battle, is it not?
**[10:18] ---**
Of course.
**[10:22] ---**
Your tedious speech just now...
**[10:26] ---**
It will make you appear all
the more suspicious, Ofuku-*dono*.
**[10:36] ---**
Is there anything you would like?
**[10:41] ---**
There is not much
I can do at this point, but...
**[10:47] ---**
There... is nothing.
**[10:51] ---**
I see...
**[11:03] ---**
Hattori-*sama*.
**[11:07] ---**
There *is* one thing...
**[11:10] ---**
There is one thing
I would like to ask of you...
**[11:20] ---**
I would like you to hold onto this...
**[11:30] ---**
An item associated
with the Tsubagakure Ten...
**[11:37] ---**
It is... our prayer.
**[11:48] ---**
I duly accept this.
**[11:51] ---**
If...
**[11:54] ---**
If I should fall...
**[11:59] ---**
That is quite unlikely to happen...
**[12:03] ---**
Judging from Kouga Gennosuke's condition...
**[12:10] ---**
Oboro, I ask that you send him
to the next world in one strike...
**[12:22] ---**
Yes...
**[12:47] ---**
*Gennosuke-sama...*
**[13:21] ---**
What are you doing?!
**[13:23] ---**
Oboro! Kill that Kouga this instant!
**[14:13] ---**
I love you...
**[14:16] ---**
Gennosuke-*sama*...
**[14:59] ---**
S-Someone! Someone slay Gennosuke!
**[15:04] ---**
Someone!
**[15:09] ---**
*Fool...*
**[16:48] ---**
Oboro...
**[17:14] ---**
Oboro...
**[17:25] ---**
Father...
**[17:27] ---**
Don't tell me those two are...
**[17:33] ---**
"Oboro"
**[17:37] ---**
Kyohachiro.
**[17:38] ---**
Right.
**[17:47] ---**
"The last one to write this...
**[17:56] ---**
...is the Iga ninja, Oboro."
**[18:04] ---**
*To think that the Iga,
and the Takechiyo faction,*
**[18:09] ---**
*would achieve a last-minute
victory in such a manner...*
**[18:13] ---**
We're done for... We're all done for...
**[18:19] ---**
*What devilish luck this woman has...*
**[18:28] ---**
The Iga have won. Go to the castle...
**[18:33] ---**
"The last one to write
this is the Iga ninja, Oboro."
**[18:46] ---**
*When the wind blows on us both...*
**[18:50] ---**
*When we both carve out a dream...*
**[18:55] ---**
*There is something that comes to my mind...*
**[19:02] ---**
*I wonder if you and I might
have been a single spirit long ago...*
**[19:12] ---**
*I wonder if the spirit was split
and now seeks to regain its true form...*
**[19:22] ---**
*And that's why I have
such strong feelings for you...*
**[19:29] ---**
*A spirit split in two would come together.*
**[19:37] ---**
*No matter how many shoals
or generations separate them...*
**[19:43] ---**
*...they will come together.*
**[19:52] ---**
They will...
**[20:46] ---**
*Melting away in the melody
you whisper in the twilight*
**[21:06] ---**
*I sense eternity in our attracting eyes*
**[21:17] ---**
*and life sprouts silently*
**[21:29] ---**
*The dew of emotions that dances
and flutters about in the spring wind*
**[21:41] ---**
*is a crumbling butterfly dream*

**[22:04] ---**
You're going to Aekuni Shrine?
**[22:07] ---**
Yes. I have an offering I wish to make.
**[22:15] ---**
There is no reason
for you to go personally...
**[22:18] ---**
It is something I really must deliver myself.
**[22:23] ---**
You're a truly laudable fellow...
**[22:27] ---**
Incidentally, Father...
**[22:31] ---**
The roster the late
Ieyasu-*sama* left unnoticed...
**[22:36] ---**
Where is it now?
**[22:46] ---**
I haven't the slightest.
**[23:09] ---**
*An age of peace has come...*
**[23:12] ---**
*Iga Tsubagakure, and Kouga Manjidani...*
**[23:19] ---**
*The two clans that fought to
decide the Tokugawa successor*
**[23:24] ---**
*were promised equal, eternal stipends,*
**[23:28] ---**
*and now, little by little,
more of them are said to come and go.*
**[23:37] ---**
*Oboro. Gennosuke.*
**[23:42] ---**
*Those who've fallen into the darkness...*
**[23:47] ---**
*The very least that I can do...*
**[23:56] ---**
*...is to never forget you...*
**[24:14] ---**
