[00:03] kane
I have come to invite you to a battle.
[00:06] keiji
A battle?
[00:08] kane
Our enemy is Toyotomi Hideyoshi!
[00:11] keiji
Wha...
[00:12] kane
Facing Hideyoshi at Jurakudai
would be a good opportunity.
[00:16] kane
As long as we can prepare
for our possible deaths,
[00:19] kane
he is not an unbeatable enemy.
[00:25] keiji
For crying out loud...
[00:27] keiji
At that moment, I was
shocked and speechless,
[00:31] keiji
at what kind of man you were.
[00:34] kane
And I felt rather bad that I had
invited you to a hopeless, losing battle.
[00:40] keiji
I didn't mind.
[00:41] keiji
We are both men of war.
[00:43] keiji
There was nothing to fear,
even if it was just the two of us.
[00:47] kane
Actually, there was one
other at that time...
[00:53] keiji
Oh? And by that, you mean...
[00:57] kane
My spear-bearer, Mosuke.
[01:03] kane
For our audience with the Chief Advisor,
[01:06] kane
you and I had left,
via separate routes, to get to Kyoto.
[01:11] kane
I thought it would be my first trip
alone in quite a while, but...
[01:24] kane
Mosuke!
[01:25] mosuke
I finally... caught up with you!
[01:28] mosuke
How dare you leave me behind?!
[01:31] kane
You...
[01:33] kane
Why did you follow me?
[01:34] mosuke
"Why"?!
[01:36] kane
I told you.
[01:37] kane
This would be a losing battle.
[01:39] kane
There's no need for you
to come die with me.
[01:42] mosuke
What are you talking about, Milord?
[01:44] mosuke
Did you forget what you had said
to me back then on this very land?
[01:50] kane
Me?
[01:53] mosuke
Yeah.
[01:54] mosuke
This is my spear.
[01:56] mosuke
That this is the spear that I bear.
[02:01] kane
I see...
[02:03] kane
This is Azuchi's land.
[02:05] kane
And where we had met.

SIGN The Eccentric, Yoroku
[03:50] guys
Heave ho! Heave ho!
[03:55] guys
Heave ho! Heave ho!
[03:58] guy
Louder! I can't hear you! Louder!
[04:00] guy
Louder!
[04:04] Nar
January, 1576.
[04:06] Nar
Oda Nobunaga announced
the construction of Azuchi Castle,
[04:11] nar
took the initiative to live on this land,
[04:14] nar
and oversaw the construction
of the castle himself.
[04:18] nar
Because of that,
at the base of Mt. Azuchi,
[04:22] nar
there were tens of thousands
of laborers who were lined up in shacks.
[04:29] nar
The merchants who went there for that reason,
enjoyed themselves with prostitutes.
[04:35] nar
However...
[04:39] guy
Do you want to die?!
[04:42] guy
Hurry up and give me that woman!
[04:45] mosuke
P-Please! Anyone but her!
[04:50] guy
Why you...
[04:52] guy 2
Now, now. No need for violence.
[04:57] guy
Boss.
[05:00] boss
We can talk this out.
[05:04] boss
Just gotta say it, so he understands.
[05:07] boss
We found that girl on the battlefields
of Shinano, and she is my slave.
[05:13] boss
It's only right that you return
her to her rightful owner.
[05:17] mosuke
B-But I had bought her from
a merchant for five kan!
[05:21] boss
And?
[05:23] boss
That merchant stole her
from me and sold her.
[05:28] boss
If you have a problem, discuss it
with that thief of a merchant.
[05:31] mosuke
Please don't!
[05:34] mosuke
She's not a slave anymore!
[05:36] mosuke
She's my wife!
[05:38] mosuke
She even has a baby in her belly!
[05:40] boss
Oh... a baby, you say?
[05:43] boss
Well, how about this...
in terms you understand.
[05:46] boss
I'll let you keep them
both for ten kan.
[05:51] mosuke
Ten kan?!
[05:53] mosuke
I-I don't have that kind of money!
[05:55] boss
Then the talk ends here.
[05:57] boss
Take or be taken is
the law of the warring era.
[06:01] boss
I'll just have to take back
what's mine by force.
[06:06] boss
This should be easy to understand.
[06:15] yoroku
Well, I'd say there's
a problem with that logic.
[06:20] yoroku
I don't believe that's how things
are done in Azuchi.
[06:24] boss
Who the hell are you, monk?
[06:26] yoroku
The righteousness
of the price of commodity:
[06:28] yoroku
Even if something is stolen,
[06:31] yoroku
if the owner doesn't know that,
they will not be punished.
[06:35] yoroku
I thought that was the rule
in the city of Azuchi.
[06:38] boss
Huh?
[06:39] boss
What the hell are you talking about?
[06:42] yoroku
Meaning, if a person
bought something that he
[06:45] yoroku
didn't know was stolen,
they are not at fault.
[06:47] yoroku
Even though it was stolen, the one
from whom it was stolen can't complain.
[06:52] yoroku
Didn't you see that written
on the official bulletin board?
[06:55] guy
You idiot!
[06:56] guy
Our boss can't read
something that difficult!
[07:03] boss
Oh, is that so?
[07:05] boss
A rule like that was written
on the bulletin board, eh?
[07:08] boss
But sadly, my eyes are pretty bad,
so I didn't see anything like that.
[07:15] yoroku
Then are those eyes
of yours just for show?
[07:18] boss
Yep, they're just for show.
[07:20] boss
How about I give them to ya?
[07:24] yoroku
Sniff, sniff, sniff.
[07:26] yoroku
Sniff, sniff, sniff...
[07:28] yoroku
sniff.
[07:30] yoroku
Hey.
[07:32] yoroku
You sure those eyes aren't rotten?
[07:34] yoroku
They smell so bad that
they're like rotten fish!
[07:37] boss
My eyes... are rotten fish?
[07:40] yoroku
Yeah, even cats would step
over that stench.
[07:46] boss
You dare mock me, monk?!
[07:55] boss
Ow!
[08:00] boss
Huh?
[08:01] boss
Huh? What?
[08:02] boss
My eye...
[08:04] boss
Hey, is it attached?
[08:06] boss
My eye.
[08:07] boss
Is it attached?
[08:09] guy
Uh, no... It's not
attached, right?
[08:12] guy
Y-Yeah...
[08:22] mosuke
Still want to go at it?
[08:34] yoroku
Ha!
[08:35] yoroku
A cat really did step over it!
[08:43] yoroku
Hey, is your baby safe?
[08:46] mosuke
Y-Yes!
[08:47] mosuke
Th-Thank you very much!
[08:50] wifey
Thank you very much...
[08:56] keiji
So that was how you
met the spear-bearer.
[09:00] kane
Yes.
[09:02] kane
That was the time
when I went to Azuchi
[09:05] kane
because I wanted
to meet Lord Nobunaga.
[09:09] kane
I'd come to know Mosuke
since that meeting,
[09:15] kane
so I asked him to cross
the River Styx with me.
[09:24] kane
However...
[09:27] kane
After I had safely gotten back
from my meeting with Lord Nobunaga,
[09:31] kane
and we were celebrating...
[09:49] kane
I could tell... that he was
willing to go to war.
[09:59] kane
I had learned that while Mosuke was
away from his house, his wife was killed.
[10:06] kane
The one behind that was
the one whose eyeball I had taken....
[10:09] kane
the leader of the bandits...
[10:12] kane
Gonza, the Ogre-slayer.
[10:26] mosuke
Ofuji...
[10:30] mosuke
I'll follow you. I'll be there soon.
[10:39] mosuke
You and my child are over there...
[10:44] mosuke
I have nothing left in this world.
[10:47] mosuke
This world is just lonely.
[10:57] yoroku
You're planning on dying by yourself?
[11:00] yoroku
Don't be such a loner.
[11:03] mosuke
Milord...
[11:06] yoroku
I heard everything.
[11:08] yoroku
I'm responsible for this, as well.
[11:11] mosuke
But we're dealing with...
[11:13] yoroku
I know... We'll be
dealing with at least a hundred.
[11:18] yoroku
If it was just you,
it would be one versus a hundred.
[11:22] yoroku
Therefore...
[11:24] yoroku
This is not just revenge,
but a proper war!
[11:29] yoroku
I, Higuchi Yoroku,
will have your back!
[12:00] mosuke
There really are a hundred...
[12:03] mosuke
And they even have guns.
[12:06] mosuke
It doesn't matter!
[12:07] mosuke
I don't care how many there are!
[12:08] mosuke
I'm going to die anyway.
[12:10] yoroku
That is a proper resolve.
[12:12] yoroku
Then you will not lose in this war.
[12:19] mosuke
What's that?
[12:21] yoroku
These are bombs.
[12:23] yoroku
They'll be useful in this war.
[12:27] mosuke
Bombs?
[12:31] boss
What?!
[12:33] boss
That wandering monk who took
my eyeball is a retainer of the Uesugi?
[12:39] guy
He is.
[12:40] guy
What shall we do?
[12:42] guy
I'm already prepared
to take him out.
[12:45] ---
[12:48] boss
I don't care whose retainer he is.
[12:52] boss
There's no way I'll let him live—
[12:54] yoroku
You're right. There's no way I'll let you live.
[12:58] boss
Eh?
[12:59] boss
Huh? Chi—
[13:25] boss
What... is...
[13:43] boss
Y-Y-You're...
[13:47] mosuke
This is for my wife and child!
[13:49] mosuke
Repay them with your life!
[13:57] yoroku
I, Higuchi Yoroku, the retainer
of Uesugi Kenshin, shall aide you!
[14:02] boss
Wh-What are you babbling about?!
[14:05] boss
You little brat!
[14:24] yoroku
Mosuke!
[14:26] yoroku
This is for your revenge!
[14:27] yoroku
Take Gonza's head!
[14:29] mosuke
Right!
[14:31] mosuke
Gonza!
[14:36] mosuke
Huh?!
[14:38] boss
Don't underestimate me...
[14:40] boss
I won't let my head
be taken by the likes of you!
[14:44] guy
Damn it...
[14:49] yoroku
Well, this isn't good.
[14:50] mosuke
M-Milord!
[14:52] boss
Bombs, eh?
[14:54] boss
That'll definitely make
some noise and startle people,
[14:57] boss
but you won't be able
to kill too many with it.
[15:01] yoroku
Then... we're fleeing, Mosuke.
[15:05] mosuke
Huh?!
[15:05] mosuke
F-Fleeing?!
[15:10] yoroku
Ha!
[15:11] yoroku
Kiss my ass!
[15:14] yoroku
You fool! Idiot!
[15:26] boss
Don't you screw with me!
[15:27] boss
You owe me for my eye!
[15:29] boss
I won't let you leave alive!
[15:32] boss
Catch them and kill them!
[15:56] mosuke
M-Milord!
[15:58] mosuke
Leave me and run!
[16:00] mosuke
They'll catch up to us
if I'm with you.
[16:03] yoroku
That's exactly what I want.
[16:05] mosuke
Huh?
[16:19] mosuke
M-Milord... what are you doing?
[16:33] guy
They have more bombs!
[16:38] guy
Why are you stopping?!
[16:40] guy
Keep moving!
[16:41] guy
You idiot!
[16:42] guy
Turn back!
[16:50] mosuke
I see!
[16:51] mosuke
The enemy's stuck on the long,
narrow bridge and has nowhere to go.
[16:54] mosuke
So you purposely brought them here?
[16:57] yoroku
A war without intelligence
cannot be won.
[17:00] yoroku
That is from the teachings
of Omijou-sama.
[17:06] yoroku
Now...
[17:07] yoroku
Let us start this war!
[17:11] yoroku
Take this!
[17:29] mosuke
Gonza!
[17:38] boss
I'm right here!
[17:46] ---
M-Milord!
[17:48] yoroku
Were you planning to ignore my aide?
[17:50] boss
Curse you, Higuchi Yoroku...
[17:59] yoroku
Gonza, the Ogre-slayer,
we shall be taking your head.
[18:03] boss
Uh... That's really long...
[18:38] yoroku
Those who want
to face me, come forward!
[18:50] keiji
To face a hundred bandits
with just the two of you...
[18:53] keiji
Nothing less from Kanetsugu-dono.
[18:54] kane
That was rather reckless,
if I do say so myself.
[18:58] kane
I'm embarrassed now
that I look back on it.
[19:01] keiji
But how does that revenge and what
the spear-bearer said connect?
[19:06] kane
Right... That happened on the day
I was going to leave Azuchi.
[19:18] mosuke
Ofuji... I miss you.
SIGN Mosuke Hana Ofuji
[19:23] mosuke
I miss you so much...
[19:28] mosuke
I can't live.
[19:34] yoroku
To use your own grave
as a stepping stone to hang yourself...
[19:37] yoroku
what an accursed thing to do.
[19:41] mosuke
M-Milord?!
[19:43] yoroku
What in the world are you doing?
SIGN Hana
[19:52] yoroku
I see... So the child who was
to be born was a daughter.
[19:58] nar
Mosuke had seen his wife with
her belly sliced open...
[20:04] nar
That is how he possibly knew
the baby was to be a daughter.
[20:11] mosuke
She was supposed to be born
right around the time
[20:15] mosuke
the cherry blossoms start to bloom.
[20:17] mosuke
That's why we named her Hana.
[20:29] yoroku
How about it, Mosuke?
[20:31] yoroku
If you're going to hang yourself
beneath a cherry tree, do it in the spring!
[20:34] mosuke
Huh?
[20:36] yoroku
When a thousand,
tens of thousands of blossoms
[20:40] yoroku
create a storm of petals
to accompany you...
[20:44] yoroku
Even hanging yourself would
look rather extravagant.
[20:52] mosuke
Ow...
[20:54] yoroku
Hey.
[20:55] mosuke
M-Milord?
[20:58] yoroku
I don't have anyone to hold this spear.
[21:01] yoroku
To Echigo...
[21:02] yoroku
No. Until your death...
[21:05] yoroku
Will you bear this spear for me?
[21:11] mosuke
M-Milord...
[21:18] mosuke
Milord!
[21:23] keiji
I see...
[21:25] keiji
So that's how he became your spear-bearer.
[21:28] kane
Yes.
[21:31] kane
And I shall never forget...
[21:34] kane
The gleam in his eyes...
[21:39] kane
truly belonged to a man of war.
[21:47] kane
You're right.
[21:48] kane
That is, indeed, your spear.
[21:53] kane
Then will you bear that spear...
[21:56] kane
until your death?
[22:00] mosuke
Yes, sir!
[22:03] kane
Now, let us hurry...
[22:05] kane
to the battlefield in Kyoto!
[22:07] mosuke
Yes!
