[00:00] Gintoki
    Who...are you?
[00:03] Gintoki
    Where's Utsuzo?
[00:05] Nakamura
    He's not here.
[00:07] Nakamura
    He left this world a long time ago.
[00:10] ---
    What?!
[00:14] Gintoki
    Was it you?
[00:17] G Intoki
    I'm asking you if you're the
    one who killed Utsuzo.
[00:23] Nakamura
    The foolish son won't come
    out even though Boss dies.
[00:27] Nakamura
    The gang will need someone
    to take his place, right?
[00:29] Nakamura
    That's right. You can't have the
    unreliable heir take over.
[00:33] Nakamura
    You need someone with sharp
    skills and a sharp mind.
[00:38] Nakamura
    A real yakuza.
[01:00] Yakuza D
    Find him!
[01:01] Yakuza D
    Drag the river if you have to, but find him!
SIGN    [Utsuzo, who had supposedly locked himself inside the storehouse, is no longer alive.]

[02:51] Voice A
    Who could have imagined that
    Kyojiro would be in charge...
[02:53] Voice A
    of Boss Mashiroi's funeral ceremony.
[02:56] Voice B
    The one they call Guardian Dog.
[02:59] Voice C
    The Boss had only one son, I believe.
[03:02] Voice D (Woman)
    I hear they butted heads a lot over
    him wanting to live an honest life.
[03:06] Voice D (Woman)
    They say he ran away from home
    and no one knows where he is.
[03:10] Voice B
    Rumor has it that Kyojiro killed him.
[03:14] Voice B
    Who knows what really happened.
[03:18] ---
    Before the Boss took him in...
[03:20] Voice B
    he lived like a stray dog.
[03:23] Voice A
    Hey, he might bite you in the throat
[03:25] Voice A
    if he hears you spreading
    rumors like that.
[03:27] Voice C
    How frightening.
SIGN    ["Some Things Are Better Left Unsaid"]
[03:47] Shinpachi
    We're asking you where Gin-san went!
[03:51] Yakuza C
    I don't know what to tell you...
[03:54] Shinpachi
    He hasn't returned since that night.
    If you know anything, please tell us!
[03:58] Yakuza C
    I don't know anything...
[04:00] Kagura
    Dammit, you! If you're monkeying around
    with us, I'll rip out your hair!
[04:04] Shinpachi
    Kagura-chan, think a little before you
    speak. These are scary people.
[04:11] Yakuza C
    You're a spunky young lady.
[04:13] Yakuza C
    But I don't know anything.
[04:15] Yakuza C
    And even if I did, I probably
    wouldn't tell you anything.
[04:19] Shinpachi
    We're not getting anywhere with
    you. Call Nakamura-san!
[04:22] Kagura
    Right! We don't want
    to deal with small fries!
[04:25] Yakuza C
    Do you people understand
    what's going on here?
[04:29] Yakuza C
    Brother doesn't have the time
    to be bothered by you.
[04:32] ---
    Go on home.
[04:33] Nakamura
    That's enough.
[04:36] Nakamura
    Come this way. I'll hear
    what you have to say.
[04:43] Shinpachi
    So you're saying that when he learned
    the Boss died, he left right away?
[04:48] Nakamura
    That's right. His client died.
[04:52] Nakamura
    It's what anyone would do.
[04:54] Shinpachi
    Something's odd...
[04:58] Nakamura
    What do you mean?
[05:00] Shinpachi
    It's not odd that Gin-san
    didn't come back,
[05:03] Shinpachi
    but I can't imagine Gin-san giving up
    on the job for a reason like that.
[05:08] Shinpachi
    The Boss's words were full of sincerity
[05:10] Shinpachi
    when he said he wanted to confront
    his son face-to-face.
[05:14] ---
    That's why Gin-san accepted this
    job. I'm sure that's how it was.
[05:19] Nakamura
    He commands a great deal
    of faith...that man does.
[05:23] Shinpachi
    Well, most of his life is
    about slacking, but...
[05:27] Kagura
    That's right! Most of his body is made
    up of sugar and useless syrup,
[05:32] Kagura
    but Gin-chan would never
    give up halfway on a job!
[05:36] Nakamura
    Tell me something.
[05:39] Nakamura
    What is that man to you?
[05:43] Shinpachi (Firmly)
    He's like family.
[05:48] Nakamura
    Family, huh?
[05:51] Shinpachi
    Nakamura-san...you know
    something, don't you?
[05:56] Nakamura
    Let me tell you one thing...
[06:00] Nakamura
    Nothing good happens when decent
    people stick their noses
[06:05] Nakamura
    into yakuza business with
    a half-hearted resolve.
[06:07] Nakamura
    That's a warning to you.
SIGN    [Shutenkaku]
[06:21] Boss A
    You all know why I called this meeting.
[06:25] Boss A
    I wanted to discuss the
    Mashiroi Gang situation.
[06:31] Boss B
    About a successor...?
[06:32] Boss C
    Wasn't there a spirited guy there...
[06:35] ---
    What was his name now?
[06:37] Boss A
    Kyojiro Nakamura, the Mashiroi
    Gang's junior boss.
[06:41] Boss B
    They call him Guardian Dog Kyojiro.
[06:44] Boss D
    Guardian Dog? Are you kidding?
    He's more like a mad dog.
[06:48] Boss B
    He's sharp and he's got balls. But...
[06:58] Boss C
    It's just a rumor, but...
[07:01] Boss B
    However, we do have to
    decide on a successor.
[07:04] Boss D
    But we have to set an example
    for the other gangs.
[07:13] Boss A
    Okay, it's unanimous. Is that okay?
[07:28] Yakuza
    Brother!
[07:29] Yakuza
    Brother.
[07:31] ---
    There's a letter for you.
[07:36] Nakamura
    It's from the organization bosses.
[07:43] Nakamura
    It's been decided.
[07:44] Yakuza D
    What?
[07:45] Nakamura
    The date for the inauguration
    ceremony's been set.
[07:47] Yakuza D
    Then...
[07:49] Nakamura
    Yes, they've officially decided
    that I am the successor.
[07:53] Yakuza D
    But I'm worried...
[07:55] Nakamura
    About what?
[07:56] Yakuza D
    That rumor's been going around.
    Will everything be okay?
[08:02] Nakamura
    It's the truth, so there's nothing
    we can do about it.
[08:06] Nakamura
    Let people talk.
[08:07] Yakuza
    But Brother...
[08:09] Nakamura
    That's enough! Leave
    me alone for a while.
[08:29] Yakuza E
    There he is!
[08:30] Yakuza E
    Over there!
[08:32] Nakamura (M)
    To survive, I did anything
    I had to...except kill.
[08:36] Nakamura (M)
    Anything to survive that day...
[08:45] Nakamura (M)
    Everyone despised, detested
    and feared me...
[09:15] Yakuza E
    Boss! This is the brat who's
    been raiding our turf!
[09:19] Yakuza F
    Around here, he's known
    as Guardian Dog Kyojiro,
[09:22] Yakuza F
    a brat so well known that even adults
    make way to let him pass.
[09:25] Yakuza F
    He's a street urchin with no
    parents and no home.
[09:27] Yakuza F
    No one's going to complain-hey,
[09:29] Yakuza F
    they might even thank us-if we wrapped
    him up and dumped him in the river.
[09:32] Boss
    Guardian Dog.
[09:36] ---
    He certainly does look
    like a Guardian Dog
[09:38] ---
    with those scowl lines between
    his eyebrows.
[09:43] Boss
    You can't form lines like those
    without going through a lot.
[09:46] Boss
    You've suffered a lot, haven't you, kid?
[09:52] Boss
    That settles it. I'm taking this dog.
[09:58] Boss
    I want to see him lose those scowl lines!
[10:04] Nakamura (M)
    There was no enmity or insult.
[10:07] Nakamura (M)
    The first adult who ever smiled at
    me was a bigger villain that I was.
[10:16] Boss
    Utsuzo, come here.
[10:19] Boss
    Come...
[10:21] Boss
    From today on, this is
    your friend, Kyojiro.
[10:26] Utsuzo
    Kyojiro?
[10:28] Boss
    Kyojiro, this is my son, Utsuzo.
    He's a yakuza's kid,
[10:33] Boss
    but he's a weakling. Look
    after him for me.
[10:36] Nakamura (M)
    From that day on, the stray dog...
[10:39] Nakamura (M)
    became a Guardian Dog.
[10:44] Nakamura (M)
    For someone like me,
[10:46] Nakamura (M)
    unwanted and hated by everyone,
[10:50] Nakamura (M)
    to be needed by someone
    made me happy.
[10:55] Nakamura (M)
    I didn't mind being a guard
    dog. That's how I felt.
[11:05] Boss
    What?! Utsuzo was attacked
    by the Zannenbi Gang?!
[11:09] Boss
    Utsuzo!
[11:15] Utsuzo
    Daddy!
[11:16] Utsuzo
    Daddy!
[11:17] Boss
    Kyojiro!
[11:20] Boss
    Kyojiro!
[11:24] Nakamura (M)
    Boss was more worried
[11:26] Nakamura (M)
    about my injuries than about his
    own son...his tears felt warm.
[11:37] Nakamura (M)
    The person who taught me-
[11:39] Nakamura (M)
    someone with no family-what
    it meant to be family was...
[11:44] Nakamura (M)
    you, Dad.
SIGN    [Inauguration Ceremony]
[12:23] Nakamura (M)
    Dad, I made up my mind that day.
[12:31] Nakamura (M)
    Your blood may not run
    through my veins.
[12:37] Nakamura (M)
    But I will shed my blood at the same time
[12:40] Nakamura (M)
    and for the same things that you do.
[12:45] Nakamura (M)
    ...Yes, that's what I've decided.
[12:49] Nakamura (M)
    That's what I decided, but...
[12:54] Gintoki
    Let's not all be so formal. Drink up.
[12:59] Gintoki
    Only those who work can
    enjoy the taste of sake.
[13:03] Gintoki
    Of course the work you do
    is probably only crime.
[13:19] Gintoki
    Yo! Is this a birthday party?
    Happy birthday.
[13:24] Nakamura
    You're...?!
[13:26] Gintoki
    I thought we were friends?
[13:28] Gintoki
    You could've at least invited
    me to your party.
[13:36] Gintoki
    I intend to repay you in full for the present
    you gave me the other day.
[13:45] Nakamura
    I've been in this business a long time
    and met a lot of strong guys.
[13:49] Nakamura
    But I've never met a guy who returned after
    getting slashed and shot up like you.
[13:56] Nakamura
    I'm glad you're not a yakuza.
[14:00] Nakamura
    You put on quite a show here.
[14:02] Nakamura
    Those guys are the bosses
    of our organization.
[14:06] Nakamura
    You'll never get out of here alive.
[14:10] Gintoki
    Is that so?
[14:13] Nakamura
    Was it because of the Boss?
[14:14] ---
    You intend to take on the
    entire organization
[14:17] ---
    just for the sake of a yakuza
    you only met once?
[14:19] Gintoki
    Yakuza or not, it doesn't matter.
[14:24] Gintoki
    Lawless fellows like you and me
[14:26] Gintoki
    have nowhere to go once we've
    lost our honor and humanity.
[14:33] Nakamura
    You're exactly right.
[14:36] Nakamura
    I may've sunk low, but I'm still a yakuza.
[14:40] Nakamura
    I can't survive in this business if
    I've lost my honor and humanity.
[14:48] Nakamura
    They're not my guys. It would appear...
[14:51] Nakamura
    the inauguration ceremony
    was just a pretense.
[14:56] Nakamura
    Rumors of my actions have gotten around
    inside and outside my own gang.
[14:59] Nakamura
    The association never had any intention
    of allowing me to succeed the Boss.
[15:06] Nakamura
    They were after my life.
[15:11] Nakamura
    Kill me.
[15:12] ---
    It'll be payback for blowing
    a hole in your belly.
[15:15] ---
    I'll let you take my life.
[15:19] Nakamura
    Having a guy like you take my
    life rather than those guys
[15:24] Nakamura
    would give me something to boast
    about in the other world.
[15:28] Gintoki
    You came here knowing what
    would happen, didn't you?
[15:31] Gintoki
    You came here to die, didn't you?
[15:36] Nakamura
    Honor and humanity?
[15:38] Nakamura
    I'd forgotten those words
    a long time ago.
[15:41] Nakamura
    I have nothing left to protect.
[15:46] Nakamura (M)
    Nothing...
[15:49] Boss
    What? I dare you to say that again!
[15:52] Nakamura
    Calm down, Boss!
[15:53] Utsuzo
    I'll repeat it as many times as you want!
[15:55] Utsuzo
    I don't want to live with you
    and your men, Father!
[15:58] Utsuzo
    If it's a successor you want, there's
    someone much more suitable!
[16:01] Utsuzo
    I'll live the way I want to live!
[16:04] Boss
    Wait! Utsuzo!
[16:05] Utsuzo
    Father, you have Kyojiro-san!
    He's got guts, brains and strength!
[16:10] Utsuzo
    He's a much more decent son than me!
[16:13] Boss
    Stupid fool!
[16:14] Nakamura
    Boss!
[16:18] Nakamura
    Young Boss!
[16:20] Yakuza G
    Young Boss!
[16:22] Yakuza F
    Young Boss! Come on out!
[16:24] Yakuza
    Young Boss!
[16:25] Yakuza G
    Young Boss!
[16:32] Boss
    This is so stupid...
[16:35] Boss
    Having him succeed me...
[16:37] Boss
    Maybe I thought that was the way
    to show my love for my son.
[16:41] Boss
    Laugh at me, Kyojiro.
[16:46] ---
    My arms may be good at hitting
    and threatening people,
[16:51] Boss
    but they don't even know
    how to hug their own son.
[17:14] Nakamura
    Young Boss...
[17:31] Nakamura
    Listen up...
[17:33] Nakamura
    Don't let the Boss near the storehouse.
[17:36] Nakamura
    Boss will die soon.
[17:39] Nakamura
    Until then, take turns living
    in the storehouse
[17:41] Nakamura
    and don't let him know that the
    Young Boss is not there.
[17:44] Nakamura
    Understand?
[17:45] Yakuza H
    Brother...where is...the Young Boss?
[17:48] Nakamura
    Young boss...
[17:52] Nakamura
    ...I killed him.
[18:01] Nakamura (M)
    This is...how it should be...
[18:04] Nakamura (M)
    Boss died without knowing
    anything. My duty is...
[18:09] Nakamura (M)
    Fulfilled.
[18:11] ---
    I have nothing left...to protect.
[18:28] Nakamura
    Wh-What...?! Are you...
[18:32] Nakamura
    doing?!
[18:33] Gintoki
    I already repaid you for the
    hole you put in my gut!
[18:37] Gintoki
    Like I told you, I only came to fulfill my
    obligation to honor and humanity.
[18:41] Gintoki
    I promised the old man, you know.
[18:44] Gintoki
    That I'd bring his foolish son to him.
[18:49] Gintoki
    So draw your sword! Fight!
[18:57] Nakamura
    You understand, right,
[19:00] Nakamura
    that I'm the guy who
    tried to take your life!
[19:03] Gintoki
    That kind of thing wasn't going to kill me.
[19:05] Gintoki
    I was just going along with
    your lousy playacting.
[19:09] Nakamura
    You...
[19:10] Gintoki
    I saw right through you.
    You're a lousy actor!
[19:14] Gintoki (Recollection)
    Was it you?
[19:16] Gintoki (Recollection)
    I'm asking you if you're the
    one who killed Utsuzo.
[19:22] Gintoki
    You would kill me and shoulder all the
    blame to keep the secret hidden.
[19:29] Gintoki
    And what's more,
[19:31] Gintoki
    you were going to die and take
    everything to your grave?
[19:34] Gintoki
    Stop trying to make yourself look good!
[19:37] Gintoki
    If you really think of the old
    man as your father...
[19:40] Gintoki
    If you're really doing this for his sake...
[19:43] Gintoki
    Live. Bring even a single lousy flower
    and go visit him at his grave!
[19:49] Gintoki
    I won't allow any more of the
    old man's sons die!
[19:53] Gintoki
    I won't let you die!
[19:56] Gintoki
    I'll drag you to that old man's
    grave if I have to!
[20:00] Gintoki
    Out of my way!
[20:01] Gintoki
    Scumbags!
[20:24] Gintoki
    Kyojiro!
[20:27] Gintoki
    Kyojiro!
[20:31] Gintoki
    Hang on! Hey!
[20:34] Gintoki
    Dammit! Wait I'll get a doctor!
[20:37] Nakamura
    Don't bother. It hit me in the worst spot.
[20:41] Gintoki
    Don't be so weak!
[20:44] Gintoki
    You're a yakuza, aren't you?!
[20:46] Gintoki
    Don't whimper just because
    there's a hole in your gut!
[20:50] Nakamura
    This is...how it's supposed to be.
[20:54] Nakamura
    I...can't face the Boss.
[20:58] Nakamura
    I couldn't protect what
    was precious to him.
[21:01] Nakamura
    It's divine punishment.
[21:04] Nakamura
    He helped me so much, but I couldn't
    do a single thing for him in return.
[21:14] Nakamura
    I was a useless Guardian Dog.
    Once a stray, always a stray.
[21:21] Nakamura
    When I die, throw my
    body in a back alley.
[21:25] Nakamura
    It's a death befitting a stray dog.
[21:30] Gintoki
    You're not a stray dog.
[21:33] Gintoki
    The rest of the world might scorn
    you, but I know the truth.
[21:38] Gintoki
    Even if you had to take all the blame,
[21:41] Gintoki
    you protected it until the very end.
[21:44] Gintoki
    You're not a stray dog.
[21:48] Gintoki
    You're a noble Guardian Dog.
[21:56] Boss
    Guardian Dog.
[21:59] ---
    He certainly does look
[22:01] ---
    like a Guardian Dog with those scowl
    lines between his eyebrows.

    You've suffered a lot, haven't you, kid?
[22:16] Boss
    That settles it.

    I'm taking this dog. I want to see
    him lose those scowl lines!
