[00:04] Hinowa
    The sky is egalitarian... It doesn't discriminate against anyone.
[00:09] Hinowa
    It shines the light of the sun on everyone equally.
[00:12] Hinowa
    But the skies test us at times.
[00:17] ---
    Night comes...
[00:19] Hinowa
    the sun becomes obscured by rain or clouds.
[00:23] ---
    Even so, we do not lose our way.
[00:28] ---
    There is no night that does not end.
[00:31] ---
    There is no rain that does not stop.
[00:35] Hinowa
    As long as the sun shines in our hearts,
[00:38] Hinowa
    we will never lose our way.
[00:46] Hinowa
    But we did not know at the time
[00:51] Hinowa
    that the stronger the sun shines,
[00:54] Hinowa
    the more distinct the shadows become.
[02:47] Opening Creditsseita
    Sorry.
[02:56] Seita
    How depressing.
[02:58] Seita
    It's pretty empty.
[03:01] Seita
    I really can't make money going after samurai in this day and age.
[03:05] Seita
    Even I've got more money.
[03:07] Seita
    Huh? My wallet... It's gone!
[03:10] ---
    How? Did I drop it?
[03:11] Gintoki
    One, two, three... Yahoo! I've gone from rags to riches!
[03:15] Gintoki
    I guess I'll have a parfait and play some pachinko.
[03:18] Seita
    That's...
[03:18] Seita
    My money...
[03:23] Gintoki
    You thief!

[03:33] Gintoki
    You chose the wrong person.
[03:36] Gintoki
    You're a hundred years too early to be stealing my wallet.
[03:39] Gintoki
    Your work is sloppy.
[03:40] Gintoki
    When it comes to stealing, when you stick your hands into someone else's kimono...
[03:45] Gintoki
    important things also fall out of your kimono.
[03:49] Seita
    That's good enough, right? I paid for your parfait, so let it slide!
[03:53] Gintoki
    Now when you ask someone a favor, you've got to be reasonable.
[03:58] Gintoki
    Give me back the money that was in my wallet.
[04:00] Seita
    The money? Your wallet was empty to begin with!
[04:04] Gintoki
    Don't try to play dumb, kid.
[04:06] Gintoki
    There should have been seventy to eighty thousand in there.
[04:08] Gintoki
    I was going to pay my rent.
[04:10] Harura
    You're making a kid pay for your parfait and you're extorting money?
[04:13] Harura
    What kind of adult are you?!
[04:15] Gintoki
    The fact that you know you're a kid means that you're already an adult.
[04:19] Gintoki
    Adults have to accept punishments and responsibility.
[04:22] Seita
    Wait--! Wait, Bro! Please!
[04:25] Gintoki
    Who're you calling "Bro"?
[04:26] Gintoki
    I don't remember ever having a filthy little brother like you.
[04:30] Seita
    Please wait!
[04:32] ---
    I really need money!
[04:45] Woman A
    Sir, sir, care to have fun here?
[04:48] Gintoki
    All right, I'll come later!
[04:51] Woman A
    If you are, you should come now.
[04:53] Gintoki
    Let go! I hate clingy chicks!
[04:57] Gintoki
    The underground city, Yoshiwara Shangri-La.
[05:00] ---
    Sustained by corrupt government officials.
[05:02] Gintoki
    An area that is ignored by the government and beyond the reach of the law.
[05:06] Gintoki
    It is a city of eternal night.
[05:08] Gintoki
    You perverted kid.
[05:09] Gintoki
    Taking me to a place like this and trying to trick me with sexual pleasures.
[05:13] Gintoki
    It's pretty nice of you.
[05:15] Gintoki
    But regular women won't satisfy me.
[05:19] Gintoki
    You've got to get women of her level.
[05:23] Seita
    That's impossible. She's out of your reach.
[05:27] Seita
    That's Hinowa. She's this town's top courtesan.
[05:30] Seita
    If she doesn't like you, she won't bother with you.
[05:33] Seita
    No matter how rich you are or even if you're a lord.
[05:35] Seita
    She's far beyond your reach.
[05:38] Seita
    Besides,
[05:39] Seita
    I already have dibs on her.
[05:44] Seita
    Mister, I've brought some more today.
[05:46] Man A
    All right. Thank you for going through the trouble every day.
[05:50] Seita
    Be sure to list it in the ledger.
[05:52] Man A
    Okay.
[05:54] Man A
    I know.
[05:55] Gintoki
    Hey, what's that for?
[05:57] Seita
    Isn't it obvious?
[06:00] Seita
    A woman.
[06:01] Gintoki
    Huh?
[06:04] Seita
    I need money in order to meet Hinowa.
[06:10] Otose
    This little guy wants to lay the best woman in Yoshiwara?!
[06:14] Catherine
    Kids shouldn't get sexually excited!
[06:16] Catherine
    Go home and drink your mother's milk!
[06:18] Shinpachi
    It's not funny. This is six o'clock TV.
[06:21] Shinpachi
    Do you think that they'd allow that?
[06:23] Kagura
    Don't worry about the details, Shinpachi.
[06:26] Kagura
    Are you panicking because you've been beaten by a kid?
[06:28] Shinpachi
    I'm not panicking!
[06:29] Kagura
    What do you mean you're not panicking?
[06:32] Kagura
    You're totally panicking. You even bit your tongue.
[06:34] Shinpachi
    Not at all. Huh? So what of it?
[06:37] Shinpachi
    I could do it whenever I wanted to. I only choose not to.
[06:41] Shinpachi
    Anyway, a child like that shouldn't be going in and out of a town like that.
[06:45] Seita
    I'm not a kid. It's Seita, you virgin.
[06:48] Shinpachi
    What the hell did you say to me?!
[06:50] ---
    Do you know what the hell that means?!
[06:51] Kagura
    Calm down, you virgin.
[06:52] Shinpachi
    Don't make fun of virgins--!
[06:54] Shinpachi
    Men who stay virgins until they're thirty are called
[06:56] Shinpachi
    God Hands and are reborn as something called the Kato Taka!
[07:01] Tama
    I'll add that to my data.
[07:03] Tama
    "Men who are virgins until they are thirty are..."
[07:04] Otose
    You don't need that sort of information!
[07:05] Gintoki
    Well, let him go.
[07:08] ---
    It's impressive for a kid to be interested in women.
[07:12] ---
    As they say, "Heroes enjoy the pleasures of the flesh."
[07:15] Gintoki
    He's even picking pockets to gather money to see a woman.
[07:18] Gintoki
    He's going to be scary when he grows up.
[07:21] Seita
    I have no parents, so I'm limited in the ways I can make money.
[07:27] ---
    That's why...
[07:29] Gintoki
    You need a lot of money to meet a woman in Yoshiwara, right?
[07:33] Gintoki
    You can barely survive from day to day, so why are you doing this?
[07:38] Gintoki
    Tell us the truth.
[07:42] Seita
    I...was abandoned by my parents when I was little.
[07:50] Seita
    I don't remember what my parents looked like.
[07:52] Seita
    The only person I can remember is the old man who took me in.
[07:58] Seita
    That old man died three years ago.
[08:02] Seita
    Before he died, he told me...
[08:07] Old Man
    Don't be ashamed, Seita. You weren't abandoned. You were saved.
[08:13] Old Man
    Your parents saved you from the darkness.
[08:19] Old Man
    Be proud of them.
[08:21] Old Man
    Even now, your mother is in the darkness of eternal night.
[08:25] Old Man
    She is shining there as brilliantly as the sun.
[08:32] Seita
    She might be my mom.
[08:34] Seita
    That woman might be my mom!
[08:39] Seita
    I want to see her. I want to talk to her in person.
[08:42] Seita
    But no matter how many times I call out or yell out to her...
[08:45] Seita
    she doesn't look my way.
[08:49] Seita
    I can't reach her.
[08:52] Seita
    So I decided to try and meet her, even briefly, as a customer.
[08:59] Seita
    I desperately did anything for money.
[09:03] Seita
    I even did stupid things, like stealing.
[09:10] Otose
    You're getting your priorities backwards.
[09:13] Otose
    Do you think that your mother would like it
[09:15] Otose
    if you did things like that so you could meet her?
[09:18] ---
    Come and work here.
[09:23] Otose
    I can't give you the money to see a Yoshiwara woman.
[09:26] Otose
    But I can help you out a little.
[09:29] Otose
    Just don't ever pick pockets again.
[09:37] Seita
    Thank you. Thank you very much!
[09:45] Gintoki
    Earn back the ten thousand that was in my wallet, too.
[09:49] Seita
    I told you that it was empty!
[09:52] Seita
    Besides, why is it increasing?!
[09:55] Gintoki
    It's interest.
[09:58] Otose
    Now let's begin.
[10:00] Tama
    Understood.
[10:00] Catherine
    All right.
SIGN    [Snack House Otose]
[10:06] Seita
    No!
[10:10] Tama
    Move your hands.
[10:11] Tama
    If you don't, I can't clean the place that the bacteria is propagating the most.
[10:16] Seita
    Stop!
[10:23] Otose
    It looks pretty good on you.
[10:25] Tama
    I've eliminated most of the bacteria on him.
[10:28] Tama
    All that's left is the bacteria between his legs on his scrotum.
[10:30] Catherine
    Don't be a smart-ass!
[10:43] Catherine
    Come on...
[10:44] Catherine
    If you have time to talk, then move your hands!
[10:47] Seita
    Yes!
[10:48] Catherine
    Once you're done with that, go buy my cigarettes!
[10:51] Otose
    You get to work, too!
[10:52] Catherine
    Oh! Were you there, Otose-san? Tell me, next time.
[10:55] Otose
    Hey, what happened to your accent?
[10:57] Catherine
    It's been a while since I appeared, so I forgot about it.
[11:17] Cm Bumpercm Bumpercourtesan B
    How about it, Mr. Samurai? Care to stop by?
[11:20] Courtesan C
    I'll throw in a little extra something.
[11:21] Samurai A
    Don't touch me, you tramp.
[11:23] Samurai A
    I didn't come to buy cheap women like you.
[11:26] Samurai A
    I heard that Hinowa, the best woman in Edo, is here.
[11:31] ---
    As part of the movement to overthrow the Shogunate,
[11:34] ---
    I want a woman of unsurpassed beauty to pour me my sake.
[11:37] ---
    Lady Hinowa would never bother with country samurai like you.
[11:42] Courtesan B
    Go home, you boors!
[11:43] Samurai A
    Are you making fun of warriors?!
[11:46] Samurai A
    I shall slay you! Stay right there!
[11:49] Courtesan B
    Do you think that you can get away with this in this town?!
[11:54] Courtesan B
    This is Yoshiwara.
[11:56] Courtesan B
    It's a different world from the one above.
[12:00] Courtesan B
    This is the land of women.
[12:09] Samurai A
    Oh? There really are beauties here.
[12:14] Samurai A
    How much are you?
[12:15] Tukuyomi
    You want to buy me?
[12:17] Samurai A
    How much? Tell me.
[12:21] Tsukuyo
    You've already...
[12:24] Tsukuyo
    paid the price.
[12:31] Samurai B
    You're a Hyakka!
[12:33] Samurai C
    She's a member of...
[12:35] Samurai C
    ...the Hyakka, Yoshiwara's para-military force!
[12:51] Tsukuyo
    If you don't...
[12:53] Tsukuyo
    hold a rose carefully, you'll get pierced by its thorns.
[13:11] Gintoki
    That kid's holding out pretty long.
[13:14] Gintoki
    How long has it been since he came here?
[13:17] Otose
    He's quite a find. He's clever, honest, and learns his job quickly.
[13:24] ---
    I'd like Catherine to learn from him.
[13:28] Gintoki
    He probably knows he has no way out.
[13:31] Gintoki
    He's seen quite a lot for a kid.
[13:35] Otose
    Seita's changed.
[13:38] Otose
    It's great. The look in his eyes has gotten better.
[13:46] Otose
    Are you going there?
[13:48] Gintoki
    Huh? What are you talking about?
[13:51] Otose
    You know the significance of Yoshiwara, right?
[13:55] Gintoki
    It's the place where men's dreams are granted, right?
[13:58] Otose
    Not that.
[14:00] ---
    There's a dark side to Yoshiwara.
[14:04] Otose
    It's an extraterritorial area that's beyond the laws above ground.
[14:08] Otose
    One man is making that possible.
[14:13] Otose
    Hosen, the King of the Night.
[14:17] Otose
    He is the owner of Yoshiwara Shangri-La and the most powerful man in Yoshiwara.
[14:20] ---
    Even top officials in the Shogunate cannot touch him.
[14:23] Otose
    He is the king of the land of eternal night.
[14:26] Otose
    He goes by many names, but he's dangerous.
[14:31] Otose
    Those who have gone after him have never seen the light of day ever again.
[14:37] ---
    That's what people say about him.
[14:39] Gintoki
    King of the Night, huh?
[14:52] Man B
    Come to think of it, we haven't seen him lately.
[14:55] Man B
    I wonder what happened to that scruffy kid.
[14:58] Man A
    Oh, you mean Seita?
[15:00] Man B
    Yeah.
[15:01] Man B
    The dirty kid who brought us money every day because he wanted to meet Hinowa.
[15:07] Man A
    Ah. Well, I heard that he recently got a proper job.
[15:13] ---
    There's a place that hired him?
[15:16] Man A
    Yeah. There sure are some freaky people.
[15:19] Man A
    He's stopped coming every day, but he still comes once a week.
[15:24] Man A
    He brings all his money. It's pretty amazing.
[15:27] Man A
    Before, he used to look like a filthy stray dog,
[15:31] Man A
    but he's cleaned up now.
[15:34] Man A
    He's really chilled out and become more child-like.
[15:38] Man B
    Oh? Is that so? So, how much has he saved up?
[15:42] Man A
    Huh? How much what?
[15:44] Man B
    The money that Seita's been bringing every day, of course.
[15:47] Man B
    He's been looking at Hinowa every day
[15:50] Man B
    as if she were the sun, just as her name suggests.
[15:52] Man B
    He should have enough to at least have tea with her.
[15:56] Man B
    You can't mean to tell me that you...
[15:58] Man A
    Come on. It's impossible for a stray dog like that to meet Hinowa.
[16:04] Man A
    She probably wouldn't even talk to us.
[16:08] Man A
    Besides, that money was good for getting a drink every day.
[16:13] Man B
    You're really terrible.
[16:16] Man B
    So you don't have a single sen of it?
[16:18] Man A
    None at all.
[16:20] Man A
    Why should we care? We're talking about a stray.
[16:24] Man A
    He's probably doing despicable things to get that money.
[16:27] Man A
    He can't complain.
[16:29] Man B
    That's probably true. Take me with you the next time Seita comes.
[16:35] Man A
    Whoops. I shouldn't have said anything.
[16:42] Gintoki
    I thought so.
[16:45] ---
    Oh well.
[16:47] Gintoki
    I never thought that it was possible for Seita to pay to see her.
[16:50] Gintoki
    Miss, how much do I owe you?
[16:52] Employee A
    You don't need to pay. You made me feel better.
[16:56] Gintoki
    Do you know Seita?
[16:58] Employee A
    He was well-known around here.
[17:00] Employee A
    This isn't the sort of place where children come to.
[17:04] Gintoki
    This is all they have?
[17:06] Employee A
    Are you trying to get Hinowa and Seita to meet each other?
[17:09] Gintoki
    It's a nuisance to have a noisy kid live with me.
[17:13] Gintoki
    I just came to see if he had any relatives.
[17:17] Gintoki
    How can someone without money meet Hinowa?
[17:20] Employee A
    Hinowa is the highest ranking courtesan in Yoshiwara.
[17:23] Employee A
    You have to be a pretty important customer in order to meet her.
[17:27] Employee A
    You should probably give up.
[17:29] ---
    Yoshiwara Shangri-La is a country bound by different laws.
[17:35] ---
    Things don't follow the same rules as above.
[17:38] Employee A
    If you don't follow the rules here, you'll never return to the surface ever again.
[17:44] Gintoki
    Sorry.
[17:45] Gintoki
    Above or below, I live by my own rules.
[18:05] Guard
    Intruder! Intruder!
[18:07] Gintoki
    Tsk! Things have gotten troublesome!
[18:11] Seita
    What's this? What's going on?
[18:13] Shinpachi
    Hey... Wait, Seita-kun!
[18:17] Shinpachi
    It's hard to walk in this!
[18:19] Kagura
    Walk quickly, Shinpachi!
[18:22] Hosen
    Are the Hyakka on the move?
[18:25] Courtesan D
    It seems that a strange ronin has snuck in.
[18:28] Courtesan D
    One of the Hyakka was defeated. He's pretty strong.
[18:33] Courtesan D
    I hear he's looking for Hinowa.
[18:36] ---
    That's not unusual.
[18:39] ---
    She is the sun in this land of eternal night.
[18:43] Hosen
    The women are treated as inmates in this prison.
[18:49] ---
    But she is the only one whose eyes
[18:51] ---
    show no signs of weariness, vulgarity, or worry.
[18:55] Hosen
    Even though she's here, underground,
[18:57] Hosen
    her soul remains unbroken.
[19:01] Hosen
    She will never lose her true beauty.
[19:05] Hosen
    All the women in this town have great respect for her.
[19:09] Hosen
    And all the men who come to this town love her,
[19:15] Hosen
    even though she is beyond their reach.
[19:18] Courtesan D
    No.
[19:19] Courtesan D
    It seems that that ronin doesn't want to meet Hinowa,
[19:23] Courtesan D
    but was hired by that child.
[19:26] Hosen
    That child who said he wanted to meet Hinowa and was hanging around?
[19:32] Hosen
    So it is him. I had ignored him because I thought it wasn't worth my time.
[19:37] Courtesan D
    From what I have learned...
[19:39] Courtesan D
    There's no mistake. He's that child from eight years ago.
[19:45] ---
    I see. I thought that he had died off somewhere,
[19:50] ---
    but I never thought that he would follow Hinowa's scent all the way here.
[19:56] Courtesan D
    It's dangerous for Hinowa and that child to come into contact with each other.
[20:00] Hosen
    Are you saying she'll try to escape with him again?
[20:04] Hosen
    She won't ever escape.
[20:06] Hosen
    She knows too much about the underground to live above ground.
[20:12] Hosen
    We need to keep her in the eternal night until she dies.
[20:18] Hosen
    Use Tsukuyo.
[20:20] Hosen
    We can't defeat him unless we use whatever means possible.
[20:25] Hosen
    Don't let that child or that ronin get back to the surface alive.
[20:32] Seita
    What?!
[20:33] Seita
    They used up my money?!
[20:36] Shinpachi
    Yeah.
[20:37] Shinpachi
    Those shopkeepers you've been leaving your money with
[20:40] Shinpachi
    were jerks who would use the brothel's money.
[20:44] ---
    It seems they were well-known for it.
[20:47] Seita
    Those bastards!
[20:48] ---
    I changed myself and worked hard, but it was all for nothing!
[20:54] Shinpachi
    It wasn't for nothing. We were watching you.
[20:59] Shinpachi
    You'd be too embarrassed to meet your mother if you had picked pockets.
[21:03] Shinpachi
    You were working really hard.
[21:05] Seita
    What's the point in any of that?!
[21:08] Seita
    If I don't have money, I can't meet my mom.
[21:12] Seita
    It's meaningless!
[21:14] Shinpachi
    It has meaning.
[21:17] Shinpachi
    Dressed like this, we can meet your mother openly.
[21:20] Kagura
    Besides, it's strange to have to pay to meet your mother.
[21:25] Kagura
    Parents and children should be able to see each other whenever they want.
[21:29] Kagura
    Do you think that granny made you work for her
