[00:27] ---
    The ancient seal has been broken.
[00:30] ---
    In the past, you buried all
    of the land with misfortune.
[00:35] ---
    A legendary Horror that even forced the emperor
[00:39] ---
    to move the location of his capital!
[00:42] ---
    Wake now from your long slumber.
[00:53] ---
    Go!
[00:54] ---
    Possess new feelings of darkness
    and bring disaster upon the capital!
[01:16] ---
    A seal guarded since ancient times
[01:25] ---
    Now it falls and turns to thorns
[01:32] ---
    Remnants of resentment brought to
    life by the darkness of night take breath

[01:40] ---
    What does that pyre desire
    and why does it beckon

[01:50] ---
    The flowers of darkness
    that fear and hate the light

[01:58] ---
    Rakshasa, who dances
    wrapped in a cloak of blood

[02:06] ---
    Release and call back the golden armor
[02:14] ---
    The blade, which can cut
    through inevitable destiny

[02:25] ---
    Night of the crimson moon
[02:27] ---
    GARO: CRIMSON MOON
[02:35] ---
    LURKING DEMON
[02:41] ---
    My! How lucky! How lucky!
[02:45] ---
    I've always thought that wares
    from a monk were all rubbish.
[02:49] ---
    Who knew I would find
    such a hidden gem from them!
[02:54] ---
    You call that a hidden gem?
[02:56] ---
    You made us come with you to
    the run-down market of Touji temple
[02:59] ---
    for an entire day just
    to buy that little bauble.
[03:02] ---
    It's just a shell of a river snail.
[03:08] ---
    Normal shells of river snails
    whorl out clockwise.
[03:12] ---
    But, this snail shell...?
[03:14] ---
    Wh-Whorls out counterclockwise?
[03:16] ---
    I'm glad you understand.
[03:18] ---
    We don't!
[03:19] ---
    Though they are such insignificant creatures,
[03:22] ---
    this one rebelled against the way of the world.
[03:27] ---
    Such a brave soul!
[03:31] ---
    Oh, sorry!
[03:36] ---
    Huh? Huuh?
[03:38] ---
    I-It's been stolen!
[03:40] ---
    Huh?
[03:40] ---
    Both of you! Chase after that river snail!
[03:42] ---
    Huh?!
[03:44] ---
    Okay.
[03:44] ---
    Why us?!
[03:46] ---
    He's a fast one!
[04:03] ---
    You chose the wrong targets.
[04:05] ---
    Did you think you could get away from me?
[04:10] ---
    Woah there!
[04:12] ---
    You don't know when to give up!
[04:14] ---
    Now, give me back what's mine!
[04:19] ---
    How dare you do that to my little servant!
[04:21] ---
    Huh? Did you call for me?
[04:23] ---
    I'm not talking about you!
[04:24] ---
    Now, give it up!
[04:25] ---
    Shit! Let me go!
[04:29] ---
    These are persimmon seeds
    in the shape of magatama.
[04:33] ---
    A tsuchinoko that's been
    impaled by a bull-headed shrike!
[04:35] ---
    Scabs from a bear!
[04:38] ---
    The hand of a kappa!
[04:40] ---
    Bastard! You have a good eye.
[04:43] ---
    What's the point of complimenting him?!
[04:44] ---
    You may have the river snail!
[04:46] ---
    In exchange, g-give me this!
[04:49] ---
    You're going to trade?!
[04:55] ---
    Is that you, Gobeh?
[04:58] ---
    Mum!
[05:02] ---
    Um, did Gobeh do something?
[05:07] ---
    The shadow of death is over her...
[05:10] ---
    She doesn't have long.
[05:14] ---
    He steals for the sake of his mother, huh?
[05:17] ---
    I'm weak to those kind of situations.
[05:18] ---
    However, the items he stole were all rubbish.
[05:22] ---
    Is that a complaint toward me?
[05:25] ---
    Not everyone loves strange things like you.
[05:29] ---
    Though he dirties his young hands,
    he cannot save his mother.
[05:33] ---
    You just have to accept some things as fate.
[05:37] ---
    Or...
[05:40] ---
    Can you go around and
    give charity to all the people here?
[05:44] ---
    And that one called Gobeh
    may be more sly than you think.
[05:50] ---
    What do you mean?
[05:51] ---
    He has too many stolen goods
    for a child to sell on his own.
[06:00] ---
    Don't joke around!
[06:01] ---
    You're telling us that your
    tribute is a measly river snail?!
[06:05] ---
    This is a rare river snail shell
    that whorls out counterclockwise.
[06:09] ---
    It's a treasure that cannot be replaced.
[06:11] ---
    Are you making fun of us, you shitty brat!
[06:19] ---
    Stop!
[06:24] ---
    Gobeh, give it up.
[06:28] ---
    Boss.
[06:30] ---
    You can't become one of us.
[06:34] ---
    Why?! Even I...
[06:36] ---
    We don't just steal anything we come across.
[06:39] ---
    We hate the aristocrats.
    We want to cause them trouble.
[06:45] ---
    Can you do something like that?
[06:47] ---
    And you're a goofy one.
[06:50] ---
    Huh?
[06:54] ---
    Yasusuke!
[06:55] ---
    I have thrown away that name.
[06:58] ---
    My name is Hakamadare now.
[06:59] ---
    Hakamadare? You?!
[07:01] ---
    Oh? You've heard rumors of me in the capital?
[07:05] ---
    So you were serious!
[07:07] ---
    You really became a thief!
[07:09] ---
    Didn't I tell you? In this world,
    the criminals are the sane ones.
[07:15] ---
    As I thought, this has to do
    with the disappearance of Kosode.
[07:20] ---
    Don't ever say that name again!
[07:24] ---
    Gobeh, if you really want,
    I will give you one more chance.
[07:30] ---
    I don't care if it's their shaku or eboshi hat.
[07:32] ---
    Go and steal something from an aristocrat.
[07:39] ---
    The boss got mad at me because of you guys!
[07:43] ---
    Why are you trying to become one of them?
[07:46] ---
    It's to help my mum of course!
[07:50] ---
    Do you think your mom would
    be happy if you became a thief?
[07:54] ---
    She would!
[07:54] ---
    Of course she'd be happy
    if she stopped being sick!
[07:58] ---
    If she feels better,
    she'll be able to produce milk.
[08:00] ---
    If my sister could drink milk, she'd laugh!
[08:02] ---
    If my little sister laughed,
    mum would be feel even better!
[08:06] ---
    Boss Hakamadare is amazing!
    He has food, clothes, and even medicine!
[08:13] ---
    Gobeh.
[08:16] ---
    Sis.
[08:18] ---
    You've mistaken the one you should follow under.
[08:21] ---
    Huh?
[08:27] ---
    Sis! I swiped a raccoon-skinned
    potpourri satchet!
[08:31] ---
    Oh! Good work!
[08:34] ---
    Yes, the fact that it smells
    even without anything in it is nice!
[08:39] ---
    Here! Your reward.
[08:42] ---
    Sis! A mermaid tail!
[08:44] ---
    Good work! This obvious fakeness is wonderful!
[08:48] ---
    Sis! A charred corpse doll of
    some sort from the city of magic!
[08:51] ---
    Ooh! The cryptic wind-up motions are so fun!
[08:56] ---
    Sis! A rattle drum!
[08:58] ---
    Oh, that's boring.
[09:00] ---
    It's popular among aristocrats
    with too much time.
[09:02] ---
    A silly object.
[09:03] ---
    Unforgivable.
[09:05] ---
    In the end, she's having him steal!
[09:07] ---
    Well, it's better than him
    joining a crew of bandits.
[09:10] ---
    And it seems he is receiving rewards properly.
[09:13] ---
    I believe this is
    Seimei's way of helping others.
[09:20] ---
    Committing crimes to help people.
[09:22] ---
    Helping people by supporting crime.
[09:25] ---
    Are things like this really okay?!
[09:27] ---
    Ouch!
[09:38] ---
    I don't know how to thank you.
[09:41] ---
    I really appreciate everything you are doing.
[09:43] ---
    It's nothing.
[09:44] ---
    Gobeh is working under a lady of such status.
[09:50] ---
    I'm embarrassed to say this,
[09:52] ---
    but Gobeh has a habit
    of collecting strange things.
[09:57] ---
    He is very useful.
[09:59] ---
    I see.
[10:01] ---
    How are things? Are you able
    to eat a little better now?
[10:05] ---
    Thanks to you.
[10:07] ---
    I never thought I'd be able
    to eat rice porridge in my lifetime.
[10:13] ---
    Now. There, there.
[10:17] ---
    I know that my body doesn't have much time left.
[10:23] ---
    I believe that to be the will of heaven.
[10:26] ---
    No matter how much I struggle,
    my life is reaching its end...
[10:35] ---
    No!
[10:37] ---
    The will of heaven?!
[10:39] ---
    I don't want to die! No, I can't die yet!
[10:46] ---
    I would rather live in this
    hellish world than leave my children!
[10:53] ---
    I do not want to die!
[11:01] ---
    It's true!
[11:03] ---
    When I got up to take a piss last night,
[11:05] ---
    there were red flames in the sky!
[11:07] ---
    I got it. I got it.
[11:09] ---
    Why won't you believe me!
[11:13] ---
    Dad...
[11:13] ---
    Hey!
[11:17] ---
    Da...
[11:21] ---
    Boy! Boy!
[11:24] ---
    Mum! Blood... Blood!
[11:24] ---
    Help me. My throat. My throat! It burns!
[11:34] ---
    This is...
[11:38] ---
    A plague?
[11:39] ---
    In the Western slums of Ukyo.
[11:43] ---
    Small pox or malaria?
[11:45] ---
    It is a disease we have never seen before.
[11:47] ---
    The infected vomit blood and their
    throats burn until their death soon after.
[11:54] ---
    It seems we must close the
    gates of the Light Palace for a while.
[11:58] ---
    We should transfer the sick to the Rajou Gate.
[12:02] ---
    To the Rajou Gate?
[12:04] ---
    They will die, either way.
[12:06] ---
    It is a way to prevent
    the sickness from spreading.
[12:10] ---
    I see. Reasonable.
[12:20] ---
    There, there. So noisy.
[12:52] ---
    Rajou Gate
[13:01] ---
    It seems no one has
    ever returned alive from there.
[13:04] ---
    They do such terrible things.
[13:07] ---
    You want to go, no matter what?
[13:09] ---
    I gotta stay next to Mum.
[13:13] ---
    I'm the only one who can
    protect my little sis and Mum.
[13:18] ---
    I found this at the medicine shop in Touji.
[13:23] ---
    This is from us.
[13:25] ---
    I hope you can at least escape hunger this way.
[13:32] ---
    Thanks.
[13:38] ---
    Well, then.
[13:44] ---
    Goodness. Such a stubborn child.
[14:11] ---
    I don't know.
[14:12] ---
    What do you mean, you don't know?!
[14:14] ---
    You're telling me someone like you doesn't know
    if this is the work of a Horror?
[14:18] ---
    I didn't say that.
[14:20] ---
    You suddenly barged in so
    enthusiastically that I teased you.
[14:26] ---
    The seal of the Itsumaden has been broken.
[14:29] ---
    It is a Horror that loves plagues.
[14:31] ---
    Disaster creates darkness. Envy. Rebellion.
[14:37] ---
    Or perhaps, attaching oneself
    too much to this world.
[14:42] ---
    Please wait.
[14:43] ---
    The weakness in a human heart
    creates the darkness that lures a Horror.
[14:47] ---
    On the other hand, wanting to live
    should strengthen the human soul.
[14:53] ---
    So, why?!
[14:54] ---
    There is a limit to everything.
[14:57] ---
    In the past, the Itsumaden appeared
    alongside an epidemic in the South.
[15:03] ---
    At that time, the Horror possessed
    a human who wanted to live at any cost.
[15:12] ---
    The one possessed by the Itsumaden
[15:14] ---
    spread disease until the South fell to ruin.
[15:19] ---
    As a last resort, the Makai Knights
    at the time sealed it away
[15:22] ---
    under the Crying Snake Mound.
[15:27] ---
    Epidemics lure the Itsumaden.
[15:31] ---
    It must be destroyed before it's too late!
[15:36] ---
    Otherwise, this capital will
    meet the same fate as the South.
[15:43] ---
    Mum!
[15:45] ---
    Mum!
[15:47] ---
    Gobeh...
[15:49] ---
    Why are you here?
[15:50] ---
    Hey! Here's another one!
[15:57] ---
    Come!
[15:58] ---
    What are you doing to Mum?!
[15:59] ---
    Shut up!
[16:00] ---
    Gobeh!
[16:01] ---
    How could you do that?!
[16:03] ---
    Hurry up and stand!
[16:05] ---
    No, stop. Please give her back!
[16:08] ---
    G-Give me back my baby!
[16:12] ---
    Give her back!
[16:18] ---
    I won't die.
[16:22] ---
    No matter where I go.
[16:24] ---
    I will not die!
[16:37] ---
    Slowly. Drink it slowly.
[16:43] ---
    Sis Seimei gave me this medicine.
    It should knock out that epidemic!
[16:49] ---
    So Mum, please cheer up!
[16:53] ---
    I'll make some rice porridge. Just wait!
[16:58] ---
    Such a cute child.
[17:00] ---
    The baby on his back, even more so.
[17:04] ---
    Who are you?
[17:17] ---
    Stop!
[17:18] ---
    We will not allow anyone to pass!
[17:22] ---
    Beautiful women can pass.
[17:26] ---
    Yes. Beautiful women can pass.
[17:32] ---
    Mum.
[17:34] ---
    Hang in there, Mum!
[17:37] ---
    I want to live! I want to live!
[17:38] ---
    That's right. You'll live, Mum!
[17:42] ---
    As you say, there is nothing after death.
[17:47] ---
    Not even darkness.
[17:49] ---
    R-Rather than becoming nothingness,
    I'd rather become darkness!
[17:59] ---
    Kintoki, is the will to live
    a strength or a weakness?
[18:05] ---
    Isn't it a strength?
[18:07] ---
    To give up living.
    Is it a strength or a weakness?
[18:11] ---
    Isn't it a weakness?
[18:12] ---
    That's right. I believe that as well.
[18:15] ---
    However...
[18:17] ---
    Let us see for ourselves.
[18:20] ---
    That answer.
[18:24] ---
    Mum...
[18:26] ---
    Darkness over nothingness. Such splendid words.
[18:30] ---
    I must live on for my children.
[18:36] ---
    Then accept the darkness.
[18:47] ---
    Hey. There, there. Hey, hey.
[18:52] ---
    Rattle rattle! Rattle rattle!
[18:58] ---
    There ya go!
[19:00] ---
    Rattle rattle!
[19:03] ---
    Gobeh will...
[19:07] ---
    What's wrong? Accept it.
[19:11] ---
    Thank goodness.
[19:15] ---
    Accept the darkness!
[20:16] ---
    Everyone!
[20:36] ---
    Seimei!
[20:37] ---
    All right!
[20:52] ---
    Raikou!
[20:52] ---
    Raikou-sama!
[20:54] ---
    Bro!
[21:34] ---
    Damn. How long does
    Gobeh plan on making us wait?!
[21:42] ---
    Forget it. Leave him alone.
[21:54] ---
    Hey, Seimei.
[21:55] ---
    What?
[21:57] ---
    Can there be strength in giving up your life?
[22:02] ---
    Who knows.
[22:14] ---
    I don't understand such convoluted matters.
[22:42] ---
    Illusions of darkness
    reflect where there is light

[22:49] ---
    The way of the current world is so fleeting
[22:56] ---
    The fluttering butterfly that
    is drowning within your dreams

[23:03] ---
    Will only disappear if you
    reach out gently to touch it

[23:10] ---
    The dancing of the glowing flames (sweetly)
[23:13] ---
    The flower-like music (far away)
[23:16] ---
    The elegance of the moon
[23:20] ---
    Warmth that does not return (gently)
[23:23] ---
    Hold me (look for the light of twilight)
[23:27] ---
    Dance up high, passing
    everything down the family crest

[23:34] ---
    The heart you want to protect
    even to the end of all memory

[23:41] ---
    Dance and bloom proudly,
    these lights that call each other

[23:48] ---
    Will overlap and shine again
[23:51] ---
    These crimson flowers
    of oath that drift to and fro

[24:02] ---
    Next Episode: MOTHER DAUGHTER
[24:03] ---
    Read the moon and see the world.
[24:05] ---
    Follow the darkness and hunt the demons.
[24:08] ---
    The true intent of each lies there.
[24:11] ---
