[00:01] Okita
    Some things in this world aren't
    meant to be known, little girl.
[00:06] Okita
    Besides, you shouldn't go off talking
    out of character like that.
[00:12] Okita
    See? You've triggered my death flag.
[00:18] Kagura
    Kirie?!
[00:19] Tendo
    Don't move.
[00:21] Tendo
    If you don't want to take the daughter's
    life after taking the father's.
[00:25] Tendo
    Right, Mr. Sogo Okita, the murderer?
[00:31] Okita
    Kamiyama, listen to me.
[00:35] Okita
    Forget everything you just saw.
[00:39] Okita
    Rokkaku was already dead
    when we found him.
[00:45] Okita
    He was caught up in the battle and
    killed by the Anti-Foreigner Faction.
SIGN    
[02:28] Kirie
    Liar...
[02:29] Kirie
    You tricked me.
[02:32] Kirie
    You said you would help
    me avenge my father!
[02:34] Kirie
    You promised to help me kill this man!
[02:37] Kirie
    You were using me?!
[02:39] Tendo
    Oh? Don't make me sound so bad.
[02:43] Tendo
    Weren't you the one to break
    our promise first?
[02:47] Tendo
    You were supposed to approach the boy
    and serve as bait to draw him out.
[02:52] Tendo
    Yet, you moved on your own
    and created a mess.
[02:56] Tendo
    This boy is our prey.
[02:58] Tendo
    You aren't allowed to act on your own.
[03:00] Tendo
    Be grateful that we've used
    you as a tool to kill the boy.
[03:05] Tendo
    Revenge will still be yours.
[03:07] Tendo
    Your dead father must be happy for you.
[03:10] Tendo
    Honestly...
[03:11] Tendo
    Such a foolish daughter,
    just like her father.
[03:15] Tendo
    Dying while manipulated by others.
[03:17] Tendo
    That is the fate shared
    by you and your father.
[03:21] Kirie
    Manipulated...?
[03:22] Kirie
    Father was...?
[03:24] Kirie
    Do you know something about Father?!
[03:28] Tendo
    What a pitiful child.
[03:29] Tendo
    Shall I tell you?
[03:32] Tendo
    How your attempt to avenge
    your father is misguided?
[03:38] Tendo
    How your father isn't worthy of being
    avenged by his daughter?
[03:44] Kirie
    What are...
[03:46] Kirie
    What are you saying?
[03:47] Kirie
    I don't understand.
[03:48] Tendo
    You see...
[03:50] Tendo
    Your father, Muneharu Rokkaku...
[03:57] Kamiyama
    Are you a Rokkaku Inn staff member?
[04:02] Kamiyama
    Get a hold of yourself!
[04:04] Kamiyama
    Are you hurt?
[04:04] Kamiyama
    Everything's fine now!
[04:06] Kamiyama
    We've taken care of the Faction!
[04:08] Kamiyama
    Can you stand?
[04:17] Kamiyama
    This is...?
[04:21] Okita
    Kamiyama! You okay?!
[04:29] Kamiyama
    The next thing I knew, the Rokkaku owner
    was lying on the floor, covered in blood.
[04:35] Kamiyama
    Captain Okita wasn't the one
    who killed her father.
[04:39] Kamiyama
    It was me!
[04:43] Kamiyama
    The Rokkaku owner was a member
    of the Sokai Faction.
[04:46] Kamiyama
    I heard from the captain afterwards.
[04:49] Kamiyama
    His wife and daughter were taken hostage and he
    was forced to cooperate with the Sokai Faction.
[04:56] Kamiyama
    Not only was he forced to offer
    his inn as a hiding place,
[04:59] Kamiyama
    his savings were also used
    to help fund their activities.
[05:05] Kamiyama
    His wife and daughter never knew.
[05:08] Kamiyama
    That's right.
[05:09] Kamiyama
    The Rokkaku owner was fighting
    all alone to keep his family safe.
[05:13] Kamiyama
    Never telling anyone else so
    they wouldn't have to suffer!
[05:17] Kamiyama
    Even then, he was trying to protect
    his family, his daughter!
[05:23] Okita
    Listen to me.
[05:25] Okita
    Don't tell anyone that he tried
    to kill you, that you killed him.
[05:31] Okita
    No one will find out if we stay quiet.
[05:34] Kami
    But, Captain!
[05:36] Okita
    Hasn't he suffered enough?
[05:38] Okita
    He's drenched in blood.
[05:41] Okita
    There isn't any point in shaming
    him any further.
[05:44] Okita
    Let him die a father.
[05:48] Kamiyama
    The captain didn't do anything wrong!
[05:51] Kamiyama
    It was all my fault!
[05:55] Kamiyama
    Even after being forced
    to shoulder the crime...
[05:58] Kamiyama
    After people have tried to kill him...
[06:00] Kamiyama
    He's still protecting that secret!
[06:03] Kamiyama
    Even after being called a murderer,
[06:06] Kamiyama
    he's still hiding the fact that the father got his hands
    dirty, lost his life for the sake of his daughter!
[06:12] Kamiyama
    He's trying to protect what the Rokkaku
    owner was protecting!
[06:18] Gintoki
    That idiot.
[06:19] Kamiyama
    Please help the captain!
[06:21] Kamiyama
    The girl isn't the only one
    who's after the captain!
[06:25] Kamiyama
    The girl is being used by remnants
    of the Sokai Faction!
[06:30] Kamiyama
    Sotatsu Tendo, the younger brother of the Sokai Faction
    leader, Koutatsu Tendo, who died at Rokkaku Inn!
[06:35] Kamiyama
    He intends to crush us for destroying
    his brother and the Sokai Faction!
[06:41] Gintoki
    So the kid wasn't the only
    one who wanted revenge.
[06:46] Shinpachi
    We should let Kondo-san and
    the others know immediately!
[06:49] Shinpachi
    Before something terrible happens!
[06:51] Kamiyama
    We can't!
[06:51] Kamiyama
    He said he'd kill me if I told
    anybody else in the force!
[06:54] Shinpachi
    This isn't the time to be
    worrying about that!
[06:57] Kami
    A call from Captain Okita!
[06:59] Shinpachi
    You have him under super
    sadistic bastard.
[07:00] Shinpachi
    You were crying just a second ago, but you
    have him under super sadistic bastard.
[07:04] Kagura
    Why don't they kill you
    and get it over with?
[07:07] Okita
    Beats me.
[07:09] Okita
    Maybe they plan on using me as bait to lure
    in the Shinsengumi and fry all of us together.
[07:14] Okita
    Where's the kid?
[07:15] Kagura
    The lady's asleep. Staying up
    late is bad for your beauty.
[07:19] Okita
    She isn't asleep.
[07:21] Okita
    You're the one who knocked her out.
[07:23] Tendo
    You see...
[07:26] Tendo
    Your father, Rokkaku...
[07:27] Okita
    Would you normally knock someone out because
    you didn't want her to hear something?
[07:32] Kagura
    It seemed like you really wanted
    to hide something.
[07:37] Okita
    You were the one who was saying
    to tell the kid the truth.
[07:40] Okita
    Pretty abrupt change of heart.
[07:43] Kagura
    Like they say, Kaela Kimura's
    hair and a woman's heart...
SIGN    [Note: A Japanese celebrity known to frequently change her hair style.]
[07:46] Kagura
    Two things that constantly change.
[07:48] Okita
    That would mean Kaela has it rough when
    her hair and heart are changing all the time.
[07:52] Kagura
    More or less.
[07:53] Okita
    Don't reply like you're Kaela.
[07:56] Okita
    Well, Kaela schamaela,
    you have my thanks.
[08:00] Okita
    I don't need a weeping kid
    next to me in this situation.
[08:05] Okita
    I'm the one who wants to cry.
[08:08] Kagura
    I've never seen you look so unsure.
[08:10] Okita
    Sadists can't take the heat.
[08:11] Okita
    I wish people would be more
    considerate to me.
[08:17] Kagura
    What have you done in your life to
    make so many people hate you?
[08:21] Kagura
    Even if you have a million lives,
    isn't enough make up for it.
[08:24] Okita
    It's because I live by killing others.
[08:28] Okita
    No difference if a kid or two
    starts hating me now.
[08:33] Okita
    Since I can't deny that I'm a killer.
[08:35] Kagura
    You're one hell of a killer.
[08:38] Kagura
    You've managed to piss off all of these people
    yet you can't stand to watch a little girl cry?
[08:43] Okita
    A kid wouldn't understand.
[08:45] Okita
    Some things in this world must be protected,
    even if it means getting your hands dirty.
[08:51] Okita
    Some things can only be seen
    through a tainted eye.
[08:54] Okita
    Of all the things that have to
    stay clean, no matter what...
[08:59] Okita
    Well, I'm not saying that it has anything
    to do with a kid's tears.
[09:05] Okita
    Oh, and one more thing...
[09:06] Okita
    I want to ask you something.
[09:12] Okita
    Is it okay if I take a dump here?
[09:16] Okita
    Not good! Definitely not good!
[09:17] Okita
    I've got it bad! Real bad!
[09:19] Kagura
    What, are you serious?!
[09:20] Kagura
    Hold on!
[09:21] Kagura
    You just said some things has to stay
    clean, and this is what comes next?!
[09:23] Kagura
    This is the part where
    you CAN'T get dirty!
[09:25] Okita
    Impossible! It's impossible!
[09:27] Okita
    It's gonna come out!
[09:28] Okita
    Hey, lend me the covers on your head!
[09:30] Okita
    They'll do, so hand them over!
[09:31] Kagura
    What are you going to do with them?!
[09:33] Kagura
    It's not going to fit!
[09:34] Kagura
    Help!
[09:35] Kagura
    Excuse me, guards!
[09:37] Kagura
    This guy wants to poop!
[09:38] Kagura
    Could you let him go to the restroom?!
[09:40] Guard
    He's probably trying to escape.
[09:42] Guard
    Tell him to hold it in.
[09:43] Kagura
    Don't give me that crap!
[09:44] Kagura
    Do you know what will happen
    if he poops here?!
[09:46] Kagura
    Don't underestimate a sadist's poop!
[09:47] Kagura
    I've seen one Gin-chan forgot to flush!
[09:49] Kagura
    It was super huge!
[09:50] Kagura
    It was super long!
[09:51] Kagura
    You could spell the letter "S" with it!
[09:53] Okita
    S-Sis, wait up.
[09:55] Okita
    Take me with you.
[09:56] Okita
    Huh? Why is there a river?
[09:57] Okita
    Oh, it's a washlet.
[09:58] Kagura
    He's seeing things now!
[09:59] Kagura
    He's trying to cross the washlet Styx!
[10:01] Kagura
    Hey, get a grip!
[10:02] Tendo
    Hey! Don't get the place dirty!
[10:03] Tendo
    Don't we have a bedpan or something?!
[10:05] Man
    B-Bedpan? I'll go look!
[10:08] Okita
    Oh, it's okay now.
[10:13] Tendo
    What?
[10:15] Tendo
    It's okay?
[10:16] Tendo
    Huh?
[10:18] Tendo
    Could you have... Uh?
[10:19] Tendo
    Let it out?
[10:21] Okita
    No, I didn't.
[10:23] Tendo
    Wait, h-hold on.
[10:25] Tendo
    Uh? But you have this enlightened
    look on your face.
[10:29] Tendo
    You're looking far into the distance!
[10:32] Okita
    I didn't let it out. Please give me a break.
[10:35] Tendo
    He's sitting funny now!
[10:37] Tendo
    He's trying to keep his ass from touching!
[10:38] Tendo
    No! How filthy!
[10:40] Tendo
    Clean!
[10:41] Tendo
    Clean it up immediately!
[10:44] Kagura
    I'm starting to feel sick...
[10:48] Kagura
    Gonna hurl...
[10:49] Man
    Nooo!
[10:50] Man
    Now the kid who's feeling sick
    from the poop is gonna hurl!
[10:53] Tendo
    Hello! Do something about that kid!
[10:55] Tendo
    Bring a Kitaro barf bag quick!
SIGN    [Note: From "GeGeGe no Kitaro". "Gegege" is the Japanese onomatopoeia when vomiting.]
[11:01] Man
    How much did that kid eat?!
[11:03] Man
    It's like a waterfall of barf!
[11:05] Tendo
    Ew! Do something!
[11:06] Tendo
    Hurry! Do something quick!
[11:08] Tendo
    Filthy...
[11:10] Man
    Lord Sotatsu!
[11:11] Man
    Here's a Kitaro barf bag...
[11:21] Kagura
    Is this what you meant when you said
    some things must be protected,
[11:24] Kagura
    even if you have to get your hands dirty?
[11:26] Okita
    Are you an idiot?
[11:27] Okita
    My anal sphincters aren't
    weak like Kondo-san's.
[11:31] Okita
    Like I'm going to poop
    my pants at this age.
[11:34] Tendo
    They escaped!
[11:36] Tendo
    After them! After them!
[11:37] Tendo
    Don't let them get away...
[11:38] Man
    Can't get anywhere when
    we keep slipping...
[11:41] Man
    Damn it! Don't let them get away!
[11:45] Kami
    What do we do?! What should we do?!
[11:47] Kami
    I have to come alone!
[11:48] Kami
    They said if I call for help,
    Captain Okita's a dead man!
[11:51] Kami
    They intend to kill everyone who was
    involved in the Rokkaku incident!
[11:57] Gintoki
    Oh really?
[11:58] Gintoki
    Let's go, Shinpachi.
[11:59] Shinpachi
    Yes.
[12:00] Kami
    Hold on!
[12:01] Kami
    Didn't you hear me?!
[12:02] Kami
    If I bring any help, the captain...!
[12:04] Gintoki
    You don't need to worry.
[12:06] Gintoki
    We aren't on your side.
[12:09] Kami
    You aren't on our side?
[12:12] Kami
    Then why are you going?
[12:15] Gintoki
    Because we're the same as him.
[12:18] Gintoki
    Samurai, that's why.
[12:43] Man
    Don't let them get away!
[12:45] Man
    After them!
[12:46] Okita
    The kid sure hooked up
    with an annoying bunch.
[12:49] Okita
    There's no end to this.
[12:51] Kagura
    This is bad!
[12:52] Kagura
    The three of us won't be
    able to escape together!
[12:54] Kagura
    At this rate, we'll be wiped out!
[12:55] Kagura
    We have no choice!
[12:56] Kagura
    Leave it to us!
[12:58] Kagura
    While we run away, you
    deal with the enemies!
[13:01] Okita
    What do you mean, we have no choice?
[13:03] Okita
    You're making me do all the work.
[13:05] Kagura
    A couple of little girls will
    only hold you back!
[13:08] Kagura
    Get going!
[13:08] Kagura
    To be a decoy!
[13:09] Okita
    You call yourself a little girl when
    it suits your purposes!
[13:16] Okita
    What are you doing?
[13:18] Kagura
    My leg! It won't move!
[13:22] Okita
    A rifle?
[13:23] Okita
    Those bastards are even armed with...?!
[13:26] Okita
    Stupid girl!
[13:27] Okita
    This way, hurry!
[13:28] Okita
    Stop taking your time!
[13:29] Kagura
    I want to take my time! Damn sadist!
[13:35] Man
    Look over there!
[13:36] Men
    Yes, sir!
[13:39] Okita
    I'm beat.
[13:40] Okita
    This is why I hate kids.
[13:43] Kagura
    I refuse to be a burden on you.
[13:47] Kagura
    Take Kirie and run.
[13:49] Okita
    I refuse to be in your debt.
[13:53] Okita
    Besides, there'd be no point if the
    kid stabbed me from behind.
[13:59] Okita
    They're after me.
[14:01] Okita
    Once I show myself, run
    in the opposite direction.
[14:03] Okita
    You should be able to
    make do with one leg.
[14:07] Okita
    Listen up.
[14:08] Okita
    Don't talk to anyone about this business.
[14:15] Kagura
    You intend to settle this alone?
[14:18] Okita
    I fabricated evidence in this case.
[14:23] Okita
    If Hijikata finds out, I'll be fired.
[14:27] Kagura
    Is that really what you're trying to hide?
[14:32] Kagura
    Aren't you trying to silence them all so Kirie
    doesn't hear about what her pappy did?
[14:40] Okita
    That's not it.
[14:42] Kagura
    Do you really think that's
    the right decision?
[14:46] Kagura
    I don't know what kind of bad
    stuff Kirie's pappy did.
[14:50] Kagura
    I don't know why he died.
[14:53] Kagura
    But do you really believe that
    shouldering the sin
[15:00] Kagura
    and covering up what he did is
    best for Kirie, best for you?
[15:08] Okita
    Like I said.
[15:10] Okita
    Some things can only be seen
    through a tainted eye.
[15:13] Okita
    Her old man died with dirty hands for the
    sake of his family, to protect his daughter.
[15:21] Okita
    Now the daughter is getting her hands
    dirty for the sake of her old man.
[15:25] Okita
    Isn't that stupid?
[15:30] Okita
    As long as she considers me the target
    of her revenge, she'll stay clean.
[15:35] Okita
    Since I'm invincible.
[15:39] Okita
    Revenge won't make anybody happy.
[15:44] Okita
    Especially not her old man.
[15:49] Okita
    That should be our job.
[15:54] Okita
    It's our duty
[15:59] Okita
    to get our hands dirty.
[16:02] Kagura
    You...
[16:03] Okita
    Look.
[16:04] Okita
    The enemy's found us because
    you took too long.
[16:09] Tendo
    It's the same as two years ago.
[16:12] Tendo
    You fighting alone to protect
    your comrades.
[16:17] Tendo
    While we have you surrounded.
[16:20] Tendo
    The only difference is in the numbers.
[16:24] Tendo
    Which means, boy...
[16:27] Tendo
    You're the one who will lose this time.
[16:31] Okita
    Lose?
[16:33] Okita
    That'd be the same result as last time.
[16:36] Okita
    When you fight, it doesn't matter
    how many enemies you kill.
[16:39] Okita
    If you fail to protect what you're
    supposed to protect, you lose.
[16:42] Okita
    We lost that battle two years ago.
[16:46] Okita
    We weren't able to protect
    what we needed to.
[16:52] Okita
    I refuse to let that happen again.
[16:57] Okita
    I refuse to lose again.
[17:02] Okita
    This time, I'll protect what I need to.
[17:04] Okita
    No matter what happens.
[17:06] Okita
    I won't let a single person
[17:11] Okita
    get past me!
[17:14] Man
    D-Don't insult us!
[17:16] Man
    What can you possibly do by yourself?!
[17:25] Tendo
    D-Don't fall back!
[17:27] Tendo
    Everybody rush him at once!
[17:31] Okita
    Hurry up and run!
[17:45] Tendo
    Th-That's right!
[17:47] Tendo
    Snipe him from afar!
[17:49] Tendo
    Fire!
[18:04] Okita
    I said that it's useless.
[18:06] Okita
    Can't you understand?
[18:08] Okita
    I'm not budging one step,
    not even if I die.
[18:15] Kagura
    That guy's an idiot.
[18:19] Kagura
    He still made a girl cry in the end.
[18:26] Kagura
    Were you holding it in the whole time?
[18:29] Kagura
    Were you pretending that
    you weren't awake?
[18:34] Kagura
    You probably wanted to stay
    and stop that stupid fight.
[18:39] Kagura
    You probably wanted to apologize.
[18:42] Kagura
    You probably wanted to thank him.
[18:45] Kagura
    But you pretended you didn't
    hear a thing for his sake?
[18:50] Kagura
    You didn't have a choice but to leave without
    a word, out of respect for his feelings?
[18:58] Kagura
    You don't need to cry.
[19:00] Kagura
    There's no need to thank
    or apologize to that idiot.
[19:05] Kagura
    That isn't why he's standing firm.
[19:10] Kagura
    Just try to kill him the next
    time you see him around.
[19:15] Kagura
    The idiot will be happier that way.
[19:18] Kagura
    You don't need to worry.
[19:21] Kagura
    He won't die until you've
    gotten your revenge.
[19:33] Okita
    This is looking a little bad.
[19:35] Okita
    I keep swinging away but their
    numbers won't go down.
[19:38] Okita
    Hell, it looks like there's
    more of them now.
[19:43] Okita
    My vision is starting to fail me...
[19:51] Tendo
    I see that you've finally given up.
[19:53] Tendo
    Now! This is our chance!
[19:54] Tendo
    Everybody attack him!
[19:59] Kagura
    Because that idiot has...
[20:03] Kagura
    Plenty of more idiots around him.
[20:05] Gintoki
    Sorry. Sounds like a pain, so I refuse.
[20:09] Kami
    Captain! Are you okay?!
[20:11] Tendo
    Who are you?
[20:14] Hijikata
    Who are we supposed to cut down next?
[20:16] Hijikata
    The idiot who violated bureau policy?
[20:19] Kondo
    A written apology won't be
    enough this time, Sogo.
[20:22] Tendo
    Sh-Shinsengumi!
[20:23] Tendo
    Why are you here?!
[20:25] Tendo
    What are you doing?!
[20:26] Tendo
    Hurry and dispose of them...
[20:28] Gintoki
    Sorry, we already disposed of them all.
[20:33] Tendo
    Why?! Why did this happen?!
[20:35] Okita
    Seriously...
[20:37] Okita
    Why did this happen?
[20:40] Okita
    Who was the
[20:42] Okita
    snitch?!
[20:49] Okita
    There are these things known
    as death flags in our world.
[20:54] Okita
    A spoken line which foreshadows death.
[20:56] Okita
    A bad guy who suddenly
    becomes a good guy.
[20:59] Okita
    Well, in any case, it means that you shouldn't
    do anything out of character.
[21:04] Okita
    Even if you manage to survive the flag,
[21:07] Okita
    you'll end up suffering as
    much as if you had died.
[21:10] Kami
    Captain, how many more do you have?
[21:13] Okita
    I'm gonna die...
[21:14] Kami
    That's right, Captain.
[21:16] Kami
    Did you ever run into the Rokkaku
    owner's daughter again?
[21:18] Okita
    No, haven't seen her.
[21:21] Kami
    What?! Doesn't that mean she still
    thinks you killed her father?!
[21:24] Kami
    She might come after you again!
[21:27] Okita
    I heard that she was taken in by
    some relatives in the country.
[21:29] Okita
    We probably won't ever see her again.
[21:31] Okita
    Man, that kid was one
    hell of a troublemaker.
[21:33] Kami
    I hope she's able to lead a happy life.
[21:36] Kami
    So happy that she forgets
    about the captain.
[21:38] Kami
    But you tend to leave
    a lasting impression.
[21:41] Okita
    You're one to talk.
[21:44] Okita
    But it's possible that these flags
    don't always bring misfortune.
[22:07] Okita
    Sometimes, it isn't so
    bad to trigger a flag.
[22:10] Okita
    You may find yourself feeling
    that way on rare occasions.
[22:14] Okita
    Huh? What did it bring?
[22:18] Okita
    Hey, old man.
[22:19] Okita
    Give me this, this, and this.
[22:20] Man
    Gotcha.
[22:22] Okita
    And top it off with tabasco sauce.
[22:24] Man
    Gotcha.
[22:25] Okita
    That's something for you to find
    out when you trigger a flag.
