[00:13] Gin
    I'm still fighting.
[00:15] Gin
    What are you doing, idiot?
[00:18] Gin
    Get going already.
[00:20] Gin
    Take your mom and get outta here!
[00:23] Seita
    No...!
[00:24] Seita
    No way!
[00:26] Seita
    You said so!
[00:27] Seita
    That there were bonds stronger than family,
[00:29] Seita
    even when people aren't related by blood?
[00:32] Seita
    Everybody... Gin-san...
[00:35] Seita
    You're all like family to me!
[00:39] Seita
    The one and only people that taught me what's important!
[00:43] Seita
    And you're telling me to abandon you here?!
[00:46] Seita
    Let you die in this place?!
[00:50] Gin
    Hearing you say that is more than enough...
[00:54] Gin
    Get going.
[00:56] Gin
    Don't turn me into a loser again.
[00:59] Seita
    Gin-san...
[01:06] Seita
    Gi...
[01:08] Seita
    Gin...!
[01:09] Seita
    Gin-san!!
SIGN    ["Don't Trust Bedtime Stories"]
[02:52] Hosen
    How pathetic.
[02:55] Hosen
    Your nation, your master, losing everything you had to protect,
[02:59] Hosen
    and you die protecting for someone.
[03:04] Hosen
    You want to find a purpose for your sword so badly?
[03:07] Hosen
    You can't protect anything with a sword like that.
[03:11] Hosen
    Not even your own life.
[03:14] Seita
    G-Gin-san...
[03:16] Seita
    Gin-san!!
[03:34] Kamui
    Do you have time to be crying?
[03:38] Kamui
    A man made a request with his dying breath.
[03:42] Kamui
    Shouldn't you do as he asked?
[03:51] Gin
    Get going already.
[03:53] Gin
    Take your mom and run away!
[03:57] Gin
    Don't turn me into a loser again.
[04:09] Hosen
    A useless effort...
[04:12] Seita
    Mom!
[04:13] Seita
    Let's run away!
[04:14] Seita
    Run away from this place with me right now!!
[04:19] Seita
    Hurry, Mom!!
[04:20] Seita
    Mo...
[04:24] Seita
    ...Mom?
[04:27] Seita
    Why aren't you doing anything...
[04:29] Seita
    Why won't you try to move?
[04:33] Hinowa
    I can't escape.
[04:39] Hinowa
    I can't escape from this place...
[04:46] Seita
    What...are you saying?
[04:48] Seita
    What are you saying at a time like this, Mom?!
[04:52] Hinowa
    I'm sorry, Seita.
[04:55] Hinowa
    You run away by yourself.
[04:57] Seita
    Mo...!
[05:03] Hinowa
    S-Stop, Seita!!
[05:08] Seita
    Wh-What is this...
[05:11] Hosen
    I told you.
[05:13] Hosen
    The woman of Yoshiwara...
    Hinowa belongs to me.
[05:18] Hosen
    She cannot escape anywhere.
[05:21] Hosen
    She can try to take off to the surface, but there is no sky here.
[05:25] Hosen
    Let alone wings for her to fly with.
[05:28] Hosen
    They were torn into pieces long ago.
[05:34] Seita
    M-Mom...
[05:36] Hosen
    That woman can no longer stand on her own legs,
[05:41] Hosen
    much less walk on her own!
[05:43] Hosen
    She can no longer go anywhere.
[05:46] Hosen
    She cannot escape from me.
[05:52] Kamui
    You even took her legs to chain her down, huh?
[05:58] Seita
    How could you...
[06:00] Seita
    What did Mom ever do?
[06:04] Seita
    Why does Mom have to suffer all alone like this?
[06:09] Hinowa
    It's okay.
[06:13] Hinowa
    That's enough.
[06:15] Hinowa
    You've already saved me, Seita.
[06:19] Hinowa
    I was able to see you.
[06:21] Hinowa
    That's enough for me.
[06:26] Hinowa
    You called me your mom.
[06:28] Hinowa
    That's enough to keep me going...
    no matter where I am.
[06:34] Hinowa
    So don't mind me and get going.
[06:37] Hinowa
    Please live, Seita.
[06:40] Hinowa
    You're my...
[06:42] Hinowa
    Yoshiwara's... hope.
[06:48] Hinowa
    To us women of Yoshiwara,
[06:50] Hinowa
    unable to live as women or mothers,
[06:52] Hinowa
    you are our only child.
[07:00] Hinowa
    As long as you're alive, we can survive in any hell.
[07:05] Hinowa
    We can bear any hardship.
[07:08] Hinowa
    So live in freedom for our sake with all you've got.
[07:15] Hinowa
    Get going already.
[07:20] Hosen
    Just like eight years ago.
[07:23] Hosen
    Entrusting the child with your hopes and letting him escape to the surface.
[07:27] Hosen
    It's exactly the same.
[07:29] Hosen
    The only difference is, this time the child cannot escape.
[07:35] Hosen
    Time to stop playing mother, Hinowa.
[07:39] Hosen
    A filthy prostitute could never become a mother.
[07:44] Hosen
    You can never be a mother.
[07:46] Hosen
    I'll prove it to you.
[07:50] Hosen
    By killing...
[07:53] Hosen
    that child.
[07:55] Kamui
    Man... Never expected you to be into her this much.
[07:59] Kamui
    I find it hard to believe you were my master.
[08:02] Kamui
    Looks like you haven't made any progress in the past eight years.
[08:06] Kamui
    Ruining a prostitute and taking away her value as an item.
[08:10] Kamui
    Yet you still keep her at your side.
[08:13] Kamui
    Boss, it appears you need her not as an item,
[08:20] Kamui
    ...but as a woman.
[08:25] Hosen
    I need her?
[08:27] Hosen
    What nonsense.
[08:30] Hosen
    You've got it backwards.
[08:32] Hosen
    Money, authority, women, everything I wanted,
[08:37] Hosen
    I obtained with my power.
[08:39] Hosen
    But there is one thing even I cannot obtain.
[08:43] Hosen
    Something not even the King of the Night could bring down...
[08:49] Hosen
    I was forced to run deep into this underground world.
[08:53] Hosen
    Yet even in this eternal darkness,
    it still exists without change.
[08:59] Hosen
    My... No, the Yato's most dreaded existence,
[09:04] Hosen
    our one and only predator!
[09:07] Hosen
    Yes, the sun!
[09:10] Hosen
    No matter how much she suffers,
    those eyes never lose their light.
[09:16] Hosen
    No matter how low she sinks down to, her spirit wouldn't break.
[09:21] Hosen
    Her noble sight is just like the dreaded sun.
[09:29] Hosen
    My thirst won't quench.
[09:32] Hosen
    No matter how much I drank...
[09:35] Hosen
    No matter how many women I took to my bed...
[09:37] Hosen
    No matter how much blood I spilled...
[09:39] Hosen
    As long as the sun was shining,
    my thirst shall never quench.
[09:45] Hosen
    I had to drag the sun down to earth.
[09:49] Hosen
    Not through death...
[09:51] Hosen
    I would drag that noble spirit down,
[09:54] Hosen
    and force Hinowa to yield to me!
[09:57] Hosen
    Pressure her until she broke down into tears and begged me for mercy!
[10:00] Hosen
    I would obtain the sun!
[10:03] Hosen
    There is no other way to quench my soul's thirst.
[10:08] Hosen
    I would break you down and make you mine!
[10:13] Hosen
    Come down to me!
[10:15] Hosen
    You belong to me!!
[10:19] Seita
    Bring it down if you can.
[10:24] Seita
    It doesn't matter how many times you try to bring the sun down.
[10:28] Seita
    As long as the sky is clear, the sun will rise again and again!
[10:35] Seita
    It doesn't matter how many times you try to cloud the sky,
[10:38] Seita
    I'll clear it up again and again!
[10:42] Seita
    It doesn't matter how many times you try to cloud my Mom's face,
[10:46] Seita
    I'll make her smile again and again!
[10:50] Hosen
    Child! You...
[10:56] Hinowa
    Seita, put me down!!
[10:58] Hinowa
    You think you can escape from Yoshiwara while carrying an adult?!
[11:02] Seita
    You can scream all you want.
[11:04] Seita
    I was probably screaming like that when I was in Mom's belly.
[11:10] Seita
    When you're a baby, your parents would carry you.
[11:13] Seita
    Once you're grown up, it's your turn to carry the aging parents.
[11:18] Seita
    That's what a parent and their child are, right?
[11:21] Seita
    Let me carry you, too.
[11:23] Seita
    Don't just have yourself carry the entire burden.
[11:29] Seita
    A son is supposed to carry a mom or two.
[11:34] Seita
    This isn't heavy at all.
[11:37] Seita
    I've never carried anything before.
[11:40] Seita
    So this is just fine.
[11:42] Seita
    This weight makes me happier more than anything.
[11:45] Hinowa
    S-Seita...
[11:49] Tsukuyo
    That sounds quite encouraging.
[11:58] Hosen
    This is...?!
[12:02] Tsukuyo
    In that case, can you carry everybody here?
[12:04] Tsukuyo
    Your mothers... All 49 of them.
[12:11] Tsukuyo
    We're happy to have such a nice son.
[12:15] Hinowa
    Tsukuyo!
[12:16] Hosen
    Fools!
[12:17] Hosen
    What is this?
[12:19] Hosen
    A rebellion?!
[12:21] Hosen
    You're rebelling against me,
    the King of the Night?!
[12:26] Tsukuyo
    Don't blame us.
[12:28] Tsukuyo
    We were merely fooled by a rude guest.
[12:31] Tsukuyo
    Bluffing us with a bedtime story about launching a sun into Yoshiwara.
[12:37] Tsukuyo
    Everyone here was tricked by his words.
[12:42] Tsukuyo
    See? It's the guy lying over there.
[12:45] Tsukuyo
    We come here believing in him and this is what we get.
[12:49] Tsukuyo
    What a joke this is.
[12:50] Tsukuyo
    After all that big talk you made, look at you!
[12:54] Tsukuyo
    Where's that sun you promised?
[12:57] Tsukuyo
    I was a fool for expecting anything from you.
[13:00] Tsukuyo
    You...
[13:01] Tsukuyo
    Big stinkin' liar!!
[13:10] Gin
    ...I didn't lie.
[13:14] Gin
    The sun did arise.
[13:17] Gin
    All around the place!
[13:32] Gin
    The sun did rise.
[13:35] Gin
    All around the place!
[13:48] Hosen
    Y-You...
[14:01] Gin
    It's so bright I can't even sleep.
[14:04] Seita
    Gi...
[14:05] Seita
    Gin...!
[14:06] Seita
    Gin-san!!
[14:09] Kamui
    Oh wow, he's up.
[14:12] Kamui
    So he's still gonna fight.
[14:13] Tsukuyo
    Guess I made a mistake.
[14:16] Tsukuyo
    I thought you were dead.
[14:18] Tsukuyo
    But it doesn't look like you'll be much help.
[14:22] Tsukuyo
    You can barely stand.
[14:24] Gin
    Shut it, bitch.
[14:26] Gin
    I could say the same to you.
[14:29] Gin
    Nice of you to finally show up.
[14:32] Tsukuyo
    I followed the smoke and crawled back from hell.
[14:36] Gin
    I appreciate the hard effort,
[14:39] Gin
    but you took so long so I already sucked on it.
[14:43] Gin
    Though it saved my life.
[14:46] Tsukuyo
    What are you talking about?
[14:48] Tsukuyo
    I don't remember using a dirty pipe like that.
[14:54] Tsukuyo
    My pipe isn't a cheap piece of crap.
[14:59] Tsukuyo
    It was made by the name brand "Bitch".
[15:01] Tsukuyo
    You can't buy one here.
[15:03] Tsukuyo
    If you lost it, you'd better buy me a new one.
[15:07] Tsukuyo
    ...On the surface.
[15:09] Gin
    Man...
[15:10] Gin
    This is why I can't stand women in the night business.
[15:13] Gin
    Talk about being ripped off.
[15:16] Gin
    Win or lose, its hell for me.
[15:26] Hosen
    You half-dead fools.
[15:29] Hosen
    No matter how many ants you gather,
    it won't change a thing.
[15:33] Hosen
    Why can't you understand?
[15:35] Hosen
    Why don't you die?
[15:36] Hosen
    Why do you stand up?
[15:37] Hosen
    Why do you have that look in your eyes?!
[15:41] Hosen
    Can't stand...
[15:43] Hosen
    I can't stand...
[15:45] Hosen
    those eyes!
[15:47] Hosen
    Get rid of that look!!
[15:49] Gin
    Go, Seita!!
[15:52] Seita
    Gin-san! Tsukuyo-Ne!!
[16:22] Hyakkaa
    Fire!
[16:30] Hyakkaa
    Did we get him?
[16:40] Hosen
    The thirst...
[16:42] Hosen
    That undeniable thirst.
[16:46] Hosen
    No matter how many times I make them fall...
[16:49] Hosen
    No matter how many times I destroy their hope...
[16:51] Hosen
    They always stand back up.
[16:54] Hosen
    Their eyes are the same.
[16:57] Hosen
    These noble spirits are just like Hinowa's...
[17:11] Hosen
    I don't need it.
[17:12] Hosen
    In this eternal night... I do not need a sun!
[17:18] Hosen
    Every time you fools light a pathetic flame,
[17:21] Hosen
    I'll wipe it out!
[17:27] Hosen
    I'll tear apart that abominable body and spirit.
[17:42] Hyakkad
    Hinowa-sama!
[17:43] Hyakkad
    Bear with us just a little longer!
[17:44] Hyakkad
    Hang in there!
[17:48] Hyakka
    There! The rebels!
[17:50] Hyakkad
    Damn it! Here, too!
[17:58] Hyakkad
    We left behind too many to battle Hosen!
[18:00] Hyakkad
    I didn't think so many would still follow him!
[18:08] Seita
    ...Mom!
[18:10] Hinowa
    We won't be able to escape like this.
[18:13] Hinowa
    Seita... You go on ahead.
[18:15] Seita
    Mom!
[18:17] Hinowa
    Don't worry.
[18:18] Hinowa
    I won't tell you to escape by yourself again.
[18:21] Hinowa
    Let's fight.
[18:22] Hinowa
    Together, with everyone.
[18:24] Hinowa
    If I'm here, I can distract the enemy.
[18:27] Hinowa
    You head to the control room.
[18:31] Hinowa
    Defeating Hosen with numbers alone is difficult.
[18:37] Hinowa
    But that doesn't mean we don't have a chance.
[18:41] Hinowa
    Do you know why the King of the Night built Yoshiwara deep underground?
[18:47] Hinowa
    Yes, this place isn't a Shangri-la for anybody.
[18:51] Hinowa
    It was made for that man to escape the sunlight.
[18:55] Hinowa
    A Shangri-la built for that man alone.
[18:59] Hinowa
    More than anything, Hosen hates and fears the sun.
[19:03] Hinowa
    The Yato have always feared the sunlight...
[19:05] Hinowa
    What would happen if a Yato, who hadn't seen sunlight in years, was exposed to the sun?
[19:12] Hinowa
    This underground space where Yoshiwara was built,
[19:14] Hinowa
    it was originally a shipyard for building Bakufu ships.
[19:18] Hinowa
    You can't see it now, but there's a hatch in the ceiling for ships to come in and out.
[19:23] Hinowa
    Go to the control room.
[19:25] Hinowa
    If you go there, you can force open this lead-tinted sky.
[19:30] Seita
    You're telling me to use you as a decoy for that?
[19:33] Seita
    That's...
[19:34] Hinowa
    We won't find freedom if we simply run.
[19:37] Hinowa
    We must fight.
[19:40] Hinowa
    We must fight from inside the cage.
[19:42] Hinowa
    If we don't smash through this cage,
    we'll never obtain true freedom.
[19:48] Hinowa
    Let me fight to the end, Seita.
[19:59] Seita
    Mom...
[20:03] Seita
    The next time we meet, there won't be any cage bars...
[20:07] Seita
    So spoil me all you want, okay?
[20:11] Hinowa
    Seita...
[20:17] Kagura
    Hey, are you ready?
[20:20] Kagura
    ...Momma's boy!
[20:23] Shinpachi
    Come on, let's go.
[20:26] Shinpachi
    To bring back the sun to Yoshiwara!
[20:39] Hosen
    You bastard!!
[20:51] Gin
    Hold together...
[20:54] Gin
    the soul!
[20:56] Gin
    Draw together, the life!
[21:02] Gin
    Cling on! Hang tight! Bite! Pray!
[21:07] Gin
    No matter what happens...
[21:16] Hosen
    It's over...
[21:22] Tsukuyo
    Go!!
[21:32] Gin
    Protect it!!
SIGN    [To Be Continued]
[23:05] Gin
    Uh, this is a bit sudden...
[23:07] Gin
    but today we have an important message from TV Tokyo.
[23:10] Both
    Okay.
[23:11] Gin
    Well, I'm telling you this important message because they told me to,
[23:14] Gin
    and I'm gonna pick my nose while I deliver it,
[23:16] Gin
    so listen carefully!
[23:17] Shinpachi
    Wait, isn't this an important message?
[23:20] Gin
    So here goes.
[23:22] Gin
    The current analog broadcast will be ending on July 24, 2011,
[23:27] Gin
    and switching to a terrestrial digital broadcast.
[23:30] Gin
    After that, analog televisions will require a digital tuner to work properly.
[23:37] Gin
    Hey, I picked a big one.
[23:39] Shinpachi
    Oh wow, that is a big deal.
[23:41] Shinpachi
    Our TV will stop working.
[23:44] Gin
    Well, does it even matter?
[23:47] Kagura
    That's true.
[23:49] Shinpachi
    Huh? Why's that?
[23:53] Gin
    Because this anime...
[23:55] Kagura
    Won't last till 2011.
[24:02] Shinpachi
    That's true.
SIGN    
[24:05] Gin
    You can't blow out my flame.
[24:09] Gin
    As long as I have them,
[24:11] Gin
    I'll burst back into flames every time you blow them out.
[24:15] Gin
    Someone like you can never blow out our flame!
