    Be careful, Kitaro.
[00:18] ---
    The one who released the Four Generals
    might still be in the human world.
[00:30] ---
    The world you see isn't all there is.
[00:34] ---
    There are things you can't see.
[00:37] ---
    See? In the darkness behind you...

[02:13] ---
    Maybe the economy's doing good
    and we just don't know it?
[02:17] ---
    Where do they find that sort of money?
[02:21] ---
    Seriously.
[02:22] ---
    You two!
[02:24] ---
    Quit your yapping!
[02:27] ---
    Sorry about that, Igarashi-san.
[02:28] ---
    Honestly. Workers these days...
[02:32] ---
    Huh?
[02:45] ---
    CHAPTER 76
[02:47] ---
    NURARIHYON'S AMBITION
[02:56] ---
    Dad.
[02:58] ---
    I brought out the roasted green tea.
[03:01] ---
    Ahh, it smells wonderful.
[03:08] ---
    You know, Dad?
[03:09] ---
    What is it, Kitaro?
[03:16] ---
    Nothing beats a peaceful day.
[03:20] ---
    Indeed.
[03:21] ---
    Tamamo-no-Mae put up quite a fight.
[03:25] ---
    Dad...
[03:27] ---
    I know.
[03:29] ---
    Who released the Four Generals, right?
[03:43] ---
    The Kyubi's been imprisoned
    and the underworld is stable again.
[03:47] ---
    You have my thanks, GeGeGe no Kitaro.
[03:50] ---
    Just one question.
    Who broke the seal of the Four Generals?
[03:55] ---
    I don't know.
[03:56] ---
    You possess the Johari Mirror that sees
    through good and evil, and you don't know?
[04:02] ---
    That's right.
[04:03] ---
    But according to the guardians,
    when the Four Generals escaped,
[04:07] ---
    a yokai with a red face was spotted
    in the lowest level of the underworld.
[04:13] ---
    A yokai with a red face?
[04:15] ---
    Yes.
[04:16] ---
    That is all I know.
[04:18] ---
    Be careful, Kitaro.
[04:19] ---
    The one who released the Four Generals
    might still be in the human world.
[04:27] ---
    Hmm. A red face isn't much to go on.
[04:31] ---
    Shojo and Aka-Gashira and Nikao-no-So
    all have red faces.
[04:36] ---
    So who released
    the Four Treasonous Generals?
[04:41] ---
    And...
[04:43] ---
    For what purpose?
[04:57] ---
    A secret meeting in a restaurant.
    Isn't this a little old school?
[05:02] ---
    The Heisei period has ended.
    It's the Reiwa period now.
[05:06] ---
    You'll have to forgive me.
    An old dog and all.
[05:12] ---
    So, about the golf course development.
[05:16] ---
    Have you considered it?
[05:19] ---
    I believe I made an official refusal?
[05:35] ---
    SHU-NO-BON
[05:37] ---
    Oh. Yes. Right away.
[05:42] ---
    This could be quite beneficial to you,
    Otsuka-sensei.
[05:49] ---
    You really are an old dog, aren't you?
[05:52] ---
    I have principles in my politics.
[05:55] ---
    I can't be bought.
[05:57] ---
    I'm afraid this is going nowhere.
[06:01] ---
    If you'll excuse me.
[06:08] ---
    Isn't youth wonderful?
[06:12] ---
    So blindingly luminous.
[06:16] ---
    However,
[06:18] ---
    the nature of a politician is
    to accept both good and evil.
[06:23] ---
    He doesn't seem to understand that.
[06:26] ---
    To put it bluntly,
[06:29] ---
    he's an idiot.
[06:32] ---
    What a waste of time. Drive.
[06:35] ---
    Yes, sir.
[06:35] ---
    I don't know about that Nurari--
[06:40] ---
    Today at 3:00 P.M.,
[06:42] ---
    a vehicle containing Lower House Member
    Katsuto Otsuka exploded.

[06:45] ---
    Both Congressman Otsuka
    and his secretary survived,

[06:49] ---
    but are in critical condition and
    currently being treated in the hospital.

[06:53] ---
    An explosive device was attached to
    Congressman Otsuka's car.

[06:57] ---
    The police are investigating it as
    a terrorist attack targeting politicians.

[07:01] ---
    The man I was just talking to,
    the target of terrorism?
[07:07] ---
    What an unpredictable age this is.
[07:11] ---
    I have other connections for
    getting approval.
[07:16] ---
    Shu-no-Bon, call Takami-sensei.
[07:19] ---
    And Shiraishi-san as well.
[07:22] ---
    Very good, sir.
[07:30] ---
    A golf course development
    in this day and age?
[07:33] ---
    Maybe the economy's doing good
    and we just don't know it?
[07:38] ---
    CONSTRUCTION WORK NOTICES
[07:38] ---
    Where do they find that sort of money?
[07:41] ---
    Seriously.
[07:43] ---
    You two!
[07:44] ---
    Quit your yapping!
[07:47] ---
    Sorry about that, Igarashi-san.
[07:48] ---
    Honestly. Workers these days...
[07:52] ---
    Huh?
[08:06] ---
    So, what does the letter say?
[08:10] ---
    A yokai appeared at
    the Mt. Date golf course development.
[08:14] ---
    It could be a yokai retaliating
    for being driven from their home.
[08:19] ---
    Building a golf course in these times?
[08:22] ---
    The economic bubble burst years ago.
[08:31] ---
    There's Mt. Date.
[08:33] ---
    That's where
    Tsuchi-Korobi lives, isn't it?
[08:37] ---
    Kitaro, let's split up.
[08:39] ---
    I'll go ahead and check in the mountains.
[08:42] ---
    Okay. Thanks.
[08:44] ---
    We should meet with
    the humans who sent the letter first.
[08:47] ---
    Yes, Dad.
[08:51] ---
    Look. The yokai is keeping us from
    continuing our work.
[08:57] ---
    Kitaro-kun, could you do something?
[09:01] ---
    You'll take that thing out, right?
[09:03] ---
    We've got
    our livelihoods on the line here.
[09:06] ---
    Your livelihoods, huh?
[09:09] ---
    So the yokai rolled off that way?
[09:13] ---
    That's right. But we ain't going in there.
[09:16] ---
    It's okay. I don't need a guide.
[09:19] ---
    You're going to want to evacuate.
[09:21] ---
    Fine. Just hurry up
    and exterminate that thing.
[09:25] ---
    I haven't decided if I will yet.
[09:29] ---
    First I want to see who I'm up against.
[09:34] ---
    Can we leave this to a kid like that?
[09:37] ---
    Who knows?
[09:39] ---
    This is pretty bad.
[09:42] ---
    Judging from how they've been smashed,
    this must indeed be Tsuchi-Korobi's doing.
[09:48] ---
    You can't blame him for being mad.
[09:57] ---
    These are acorns, which means it looks
    like this used to be an oak tree forest.
[10:02] ---
    Every tree is nearing 300 years old.
[10:07] ---
    It must have been a beautiful forest.
[10:10] ---
    Tsuchi-Korobi is a yokai
    who lives quietly in an acorn forest.
[10:15] ---
    Having his home ravaged
    must have angered him.
[10:19] ---
    Exactly!
[10:34] ---
    TSUCHI-KOROBI
[10:35] ---
    Tsuchi-Korobi, it's been a while.
[10:39] ---
    Well, if it isn't Daddy Eyeball.
[10:43] ---
    You must be Kitaro, his kid.
[10:46] ---
    That's right.
[10:48] ---
    Tsuchi-Korobi, I hear you attacked
    the human construction workers.
[10:52] ---
    Sure did.
[10:54] ---
    All things considered,
    I've been pretty patient.
[10:57] ---
    I buried balls of dung
    and dry leaves in the ground,
[11:01] ---
    and worked hard to grow those oak trees.
[11:05] ---
    The place was finally getting comfortable.
[11:09] ---
    Then the humans cut down the trees
    right in front of you.
[11:14] ---
    That's right!
[11:15] ---
    That's not all! I hear they want to
    cut down the whole forest
[11:20] ---
    to make something called a "golf course,"
    and take it all away from me!
[11:25] ---
    How could I not get mad?!
[11:28] ---
    Tsuchi-Korobi, I know how you feel.
[11:31] ---
    Know?!
[11:32] ---
    You know?!
[11:34] ---
    Kitaro, what do you know about me?!
[11:38] ---
    Tsuchi-Korobi, calm down.
    Force won't solve anything.
[11:43] ---
    The humans cut down the forest first!
[11:46] ---
    I'm going to crush every single human!
[11:50] ---
    I'll find you a new home!
    Please don't resort to violence!
[11:54] ---
    Shut up! I'm furious here!
[11:58] ---
    Wait, Tsuchi-Korobi!
[12:02] ---
    Take this!
[12:06] ---
    Kitaro!
[12:10] ---
    TSUCHI-KOROBI
[12:13] ---
    NURARIHYON
[12:15] ---
    -"Where are you?"
    -"Me here."
[12:17] ---
    Take this!
[12:24] ---
    Kitaro, are you okay?!
[12:25] ---
    Thanks, Catchick.
[12:27] ---
    Have some Adhesive Spit!
[12:32] ---
    I can't move!
[12:34] ---
    Catchick!
[12:37] ---
    Remote Controlled Geta!
[12:40] ---
    Watch out, Kitaro! Tsuchi-Korobi's body
    is covered with a sticky glue-like mucus!
[12:52] ---
    Anyone who sides with humans
    is no different from humans!
[13:00] ---
    At this rate, Tsuchi-Korobi will hit
    a populated area!

[13:04] ---
    Kitaro! Fly in the air!
[13:06] ---
    Spread your chanchanko like
    a flying squirrel!
[13:09] ---
    Right!
[13:10] ---
    Follow me, Tsuchi-Korobi!
[13:12] ---
    Get back here!
[13:17] ---
    Spirit Hair Chanchanko!
[13:23] ---
    Take this!
[13:26] ---
    Oh no!
[13:27] ---
    Kitaro!
[13:28] ---
    This will finish you!
[13:35] ---
    Kitaro!
[13:39] ---
    That takes care of that nuisance!
[13:42] ---
    I can crush
    the human houses with impunity!
[13:44] ---
    They took my home!
    It's only fair I take theirs!
[13:54] ---
    What's that?! Pesky thing!
[13:57] ---
    Why you! Stop!
[13:59] ---
    Huh?
[14:00] ---
    Huh?
[14:02] ---
    Huh?
[14:04] ---
    Huh? Hey!
[14:06] ---
    Stop!
[14:07] ---
    Why you little...!
[14:08] ---
    Why you!
[14:09] ---
    Wait! Stop flying around!
[14:12] ---
    You little...!
[14:15] ---
    What the heck?!
[14:20] ---
    Curses! I can't undo it!
[14:23] ---
    That's a Kitaro Knot!
[14:25] ---
    What?!
[14:26] ---
    It's a secret knot that
    only Kitaro knows how to tie!
[14:31] ---
    You'll never get it undone!
[14:33] ---
    What?!
[14:35] ---
    Why you...! I'll smash you too!
[14:39] ---
    Huh?!
[14:40] ---
    Ow, ow, ow. I can't get my balance
    with my whiskers in a knot.
[14:46] ---
    Tsuchi-Korobi.
[14:47] ---
    Huh?
[14:49] ---
    Kitaro! Are you okay?!
[14:53] ---
    The humans share the blame this time.
[14:55] ---
    I'll ask them not to
    cut down the forest any more.
[15:01] ---
    You will?
[15:02] ---
    Yeah.
[15:04] ---
    Tsuchi-Korobi, you and Kitaro
    can't do anything like that.
[15:09] ---
    Why don't we call it a truce for now?
[15:12] ---
    So who won is undecided?
[15:16] ---
    I'm fine with that.
[15:17] ---
    Could you free Kitaro and Catchick now?
[15:21] ---
    Sorry. No can do.
[15:24] ---
    Why not?
[15:25] ---
    I can't do anything
    with my whiskers like this.
[15:30] ---
    Kitaro, Tsuchi-Korobi is very strong,
    but he's also honest and straightforward.
[15:36] ---
    Go ahead and untie him.
[15:38] ---
    All right.
[15:40] ---
    Tsuchi-Korobi,
    follow my chanchanko with your whiskers.
[15:43] ---
    Right.
[15:48] ---
    I'm finally untangled!
[15:50] ---
    Now for us.
[15:52] ---
    Right. I keep my promises.
[16:03] ---
    I'm finally free.
[16:05] ---
    Kitaro.
[16:07] ---
    Don't forget your promise.
[16:10] ---
    I know. I'll talk to the humans.
[16:23] ---
    Huh?
[16:28] ---
    You're...
[16:33] ---
    Don't be ridiculous!
[16:35] ---
    We asked you because you said
    you'd exterminate the yokai!
[16:38] ---
    Now you're telling us to
    stop construction for the yokai?!
[16:42] ---
    That's backwards!
[16:44] ---
    I finally got this job!
[16:46] ---
    Our livelihoods are on the line here!
[16:50] ---
    How arrogant.
[16:52] ---
    What?!
[16:53] ---
    You cut down the forest as you please.
[16:55] ---
    And it's not even to survive.
[16:58] ---
    It's just for some recreation.
[17:00] ---
    That's how we put food on the table!
[17:03] ---
    I won't have some kid lecture me!
[17:08] ---
    Tsuchi-Korobi spent 300 years
    making this forest.
[17:12] ---
    In only a few days
    you've cut almost all of it down.
[17:17] ---
    All for short-term profit.
[17:20] ---
    So what?!
[17:21] ---
    It's our job to develop this land!
    How is it our fault?!
[17:26] ---
    That's right!
[17:59] ---
    Yes, this is Igarashi.
[18:03] ---
    Huh? What?!
[18:05] ---
    But why?!
[18:06] ---
    We've already done so much!
[18:10] ---
    Yes, sir.
[18:11] ---
    Yes, sir.
[18:12] ---
    I understand.
[18:15] ---
    We're done here.
[18:16] ---
    Huh?! How come?!
[18:20] ---
    This is all I've got this month!
[18:23] ---
    The people upstairs
    called off development.
[18:25] ---
    They'll still pay us.
[18:27] ---
    Let's go back to the office for now.
[18:30] ---
    So we've kept our promise with
    Tsuchi-Korobi.
[18:34] ---
    I guess that's the result.
[18:43] ---
    There he is.
[18:44] ---
    Tsuchi-Korobi.
[18:45] ---
    Hmm. In that case, fine.
[18:47] ---
    Then, as promised...
[18:52] ---
    A yokai with a red face was spotted
    in the lowest level of the underworld.
[18:59] ---
    A yokai with a red face!
[19:00] ---
    That's Shu-no-Bon!
[19:03] ---
    Shu-no-Bon?
[19:05] ---
    Hey, Kitaro!
[19:07] ---
    What do you want?
[19:09] ---
    Tsuchi-Korobi, it looks like they've
    cancelled development of this mountain.
[19:14] ---
    Don't talk like you deserve credit.
[19:19] ---
    Kitaro, I see convincing the humans
    went nowhere.
[19:26] ---
    I was right to ask him for help.
[19:30] ---
    He said he has power that you don't.
[19:34] ---
    He said he'd stop the humans from
    developing here right away.
[19:39] ---
    Are you saying that's what put a stop to
    the golf course development?
[19:44] ---
    Tsuchi-Korobi, who are you talking about?
[19:48] ---
    You mean Shu-no-Bon?
[19:50] ---
    Shu-no-Bon?
[19:53] ---
    He's just a messenger!
[19:56] ---
    Then who is it?!
[19:58] ---
    Nurarihyon!
[20:00] ---
    Nurarihyon?!
[20:03] ---
    He works to help us yokai.
[20:07] ---
    I'm following Nurarihyon.
[20:10] ---
    Adios!
[20:18] ---
    Kitaro?
[20:22] ---
    CONSTRUCTION OFFICES CLOSED
[20:23] ---
    If Shu-no-Bon appeared in
    the lowest level of the underworld,
[20:28] ---
    then the one who released
    the Four Treasonous Generals
[20:32] ---
    was Nurarihyon.
[20:35] ---
    If we're up against Nurarihyon,
    this could get very bad.
[20:40] ---
    Yes, Dad.
[20:46] ---
    Ah, Takami-sensei.
[20:48] ---
    I appreciate your efforts, but if
    a near-threatened species lives there...
[20:55] ---
    It's fine. The money I gave you
    wasn't a waste.
[21:01] ---
    Yes. We'll speak again.
[21:09] ---
    Shu-no-Bon,
    did you give Shiraishi-san the money?
[21:13] ---
    Yes. But are you sure about this?
[21:16] ---
    Spending all that money after finding
    some near-threatened species of bug?
[21:21] ---
    It's fine.
[21:23] ---
    I've gained Tsuchi-Korobi as a new ally.
[21:29] ---
    If it's to restore the glory of the yokai,
    no amount is too much.
[21:41] ---
    Kitaro-kun.
[21:43] ---
    Your way is far too soft.
[21:47] ---
    Coexistence between humans and yokai
    is an impossibility.
[21:55] ---
