[00:01] Sada
    These criminals are guilty
    of murdering Bakufu officials
[00:04] ---
     as well as the leader
    of those snooping dogs.
[00:09] Tsu
    Stop.
[00:10] Tsu
    We've heard enough, Your Highness.
[00:12] Gin
    We already know the rest of the story.
[00:14] Hiji
    Try to commit a crime that's
    worthy of this punishment.
[00:18] Hiji
    What crime will you be guilty of?
[00:21] Gin
    The crime of
[00:22] Gin
    ripping off a lord's
    topknot down there.
[00:24] Tsu
    Are you sure about this?
[00:26] Tsu
    You'll be sacrificing
    everything for Yoshiwara.
[00:28] Gin
    It's too late.
[00:30] Gin
    I already made a promise.
[00:33] Tsu
    I see.
[00:34] Tsu
    In that case...
[00:36] Tsu
    Promise me this.
[00:37] Tsu
    We will all return alive.
SIGN    Five Pinkies
[02:17] Gin
    I promise.
[02:19] Gin
    We'll bring the old man
    back to Suzuran together.
[02:22] Nobu
    Finished with your last farewells?
[02:26] Shin
    Nobume-san?
[02:27] Shin
    Are you joining us?
[02:29] Nobu
    As a survivor of the Mimawarigumi,
[02:31] Nobu
    I must fulfill my mission.
[02:34] Nobu
    Besides...
[02:35] Nobu
    I'll get to cut people up.
[02:39] Kag
    Hey!
[02:41] Nobu
    Out of the way, mobs.
[02:43] Kag
    Or else we kill the princess!
[02:44] All
    Your Highness!
[02:46] A
    How dare you disrespect Her Highness?!
[02:48] A
    A hundred executions wouldn't
    be enough to punish this crime!
[02:51] Kag
    Shut the hell up!
[02:52] Kag
    Zip your stinkin' mouths!
[02:54] Nobu
    Every time someone speaks,
    I cut off a finger.
[02:58] Shin
    Gin-san, assuming that
    we manage to survive,
[03:01] Shin
    we won't be able to
    live in Edo anymore.
[03:03] Soyo
    H-Help!
[03:05] Soyo
    Why is this happening to me?!
[03:07] Shin
    This is the only time her
    acting has been believable!
[03:10] Shin
    How are we supposed to explain this?!
[03:13] Nobu
    She said to zip your stinkin' mouth.
[03:15] Soyo
    That applies to me, too?
[03:16] Nobu
    How many times did you speak?
[03:17] Soyo
    I-I don't know...
[03:19] Nobu
    Okay...
[03:20] Nobu
    I don't feel like counting,
    so I'll do this.
[03:22] Shin
    What?!
[03:23] All
    Your Highness!
[03:24] Nobu
    Okay, you talked again,
    so one more time.
[03:26] A
    We understand! Let them pass!
[03:28] Nobu
    Okay, you talked again,
    so one more time.
[03:30] Shin
    Enough! That's enough!
[03:34] Soyo
    That went well.
[03:36] Shin
    No, that did not go well, Your Highness.
[03:39] Shin
    The damage to our reputation
    is irreparable now.
[03:41] Soy
    I was really nervous, but it was funny
[03:43] ---
    how everyone was so surprised, right?
[03:46] Both
    Right.
[03:47] Shin
    The Three Sadisteers can shut up!
[03:49] Tsu
    However, it would be dangerous to
    continue this charade, Your Highness.
[03:51] Tsu
    Please find a place to hide.
[03:53] Soyo
    Please let me help you see this through.
[03:57] Soyo
    I didn't know what I was doing,
[03:59] ---
    but I was the one chaining
    Grampy inside the castle.
[04:02] Soyo
    Grampy probably wanted
    to leave the castle
SIGN    All right!
[04:06] ---
    far more than I did, but
    I never noticed a thing...
SIGN    Behave yourself, Your Highness!
[04:09] Soyo
    He was always watching over me.
[04:11] Soyo
    So it's my turn to help him.
[04:14] Soyo
    Even if it means he'll
    scold me for misbehaving.
[04:17] Kag
    Soyo-chan...
[04:18] Soyo
    Let's hurry.
[04:19] Soyo
    My uncle is over here.
[04:22] Shin
    Your Highness?!
[04:24] Shin
    Wait!
[04:25] Shin
    She just knocked herself out
    after saying she wanted to help!
SIGN    Odd Jobs
[04:28] Shin
    This looks like a murder scene now!
[04:30] Shin
    And why did she write Odd
    Jobs as her dying message?!
[04:34] Tsu
    We can't let anyone see this!
[04:36] Nobu
    It's faster to destroy the evidence.
[04:37] Tsu
    You're too fast!
[04:39] Gin
    Oops, I really embarrassed myself.
[04:41] Gin
    Wait.
[04:42] Gin
    My embarrassment is faster
    than my mouth can move.
[04:45] Tsu
    Enough with the Ikkoku-dou!
[04:47] All
    What have you bastards done?!
[04:50] Shin
    There's a whole horde coming for us!
[04:52] Kag
    Hold on, Soyo-chan!
[04:54] A
    Kill every single one of the rebels!
[04:57] A
    No mercy for the women and children!
[05:02] Kag
    Women and children?
[05:04] Kag
    That's some big talk!
[05:07] Nobu
    Naturally, that scum
    would be served by scum.
[05:10] Nobu
    This nation has no respect for women.
[05:17] All
    Open fire!
[05:20] Tsu
    Show that you can stop
    the women you sneer at!
[05:25] Tsu
    Show that you can defend the castle
[05:27] ---
    built upon the tears of those women!
[05:30] Tsu
    Since you've forgotten about them,
[05:33] Tsu
    we'll have to remind you!
[05:35] A
    Kill them!
[05:44] Tsu
    These women
[05:46] Tsu
    have come to topple a county.
[05:50] Gin
    Good grief.
[05:51] Gin
    We've got three nation
    breakers with us.
[05:53] Shin
    That sounds tougher than
    taking on the shogun.
[05:57] Gin
    I'll give you some advice.
    Call for reinforcements.
[06:00] Gin
    You might be the shogun's
    personal guards,
[06:03] Gin
    but you're probably too soft from
    all the peace and quiet to take us on.
[06:07] Gin
    Meanwhile, we're still at war,
[06:10] Gin
    fighting for our lives every day
    against those psychos!
[06:33] Kag
    Gin-chan, how many do we each take?
[06:36] Gin
    One hundred, two hundred...
[06:38] Gin
    Forget it. I'm putting myself to sleep.
[06:41] Gin
    Listen up.
[06:42] Gin
    Stay close together.
[06:44] Gin
    Trust the rest of us to watch your back
[06:47] Gin
    and focus on the enemies
    in front of you.
[06:49] Gin
    As long as you're standing,
    we're all standing.
[06:53] Gin
    Become the blade for
    taking down that wall.
[06:56] Gin
    We're gonna crush the
    shogun's silly toy box!
[07:00] Gin
    It's time to seize
[07:01] Gin
    this country!
[07:03] A
    S-Stop them!
[07:05] A
    Form a wall!
[07:06] A
    We can't let these rebels
    get any closer to our lor—
[07:10] Gin
    Weak!
[07:11] Gin
    Weaker than Zazami Original!
[07:14] Gin
    And you call yourselves
    the shogun's samurai?!
[07:19] A
    W-We can't stop them!
[07:20] A
    Not from the front, the
    right, the left, the rear!
[07:24] A
    There's no opening!
[07:25] A
    The five rebels are
    like a giant bullet!
[07:28] B
    Move!
[07:30] B
    We're going to shoot
    down these crazy fools!
[07:37] B
    Fire!
[07:38] B
    Fire! Fire! Fire!
[07:49] B
    W-Watch our flanks!
[08:01] A
    Second round loaded!
[08:03] A
    Blow 'em to smithereens!
[08:23] B
    Again!
[08:24] B
    Hurry up with the next shot!
[08:28] A
    W-Wait! Our comrades are inside!
[08:34] Shin
    That was mean, Kagura-chan!
[08:35] Shin
    Why am I the only one
    getting this treatment?!
[08:37] A
    Shit! They took the cannon!
[08:46] Gin
    We finally made it to
    the shogun's place.
[08:49] Kag
    Huh? I don't see an intercom.
[08:51] Gin
    Oh well.
[08:53] Gin
    We'll have to use this.
[08:54] A
    Wait!
[08:55] A
    Not that!
[08:56] A
    Anything but that!
[08:57] Gin
    Shogun-sama!
[08:58] Gin
    Come out and play!
[09:09] Gin
    Sorry to keep you waiting, Shogun-sama.
[09:12] Gin
    The #1 delivery lady, the courtesan
    Suzuran, has come to see you.
[09:17] Gin
    And it's too late to request a change.
[09:19] Gin
    Did you wash that filthy ass of yours?
[09:22] Gin
    You won't be getting any sleep tonight.
[09:27] Sada
    Life is filled with surprises.
[09:29] Sada
    You must be the first in
    history to insult the Bakufu
[09:32] ---
    and sully the Tokugawa name
    in such a fashion.
[09:37] Sada
    If you intended to beg for mercy,
    you've only added to your crimes.
[09:42] Nobu
    You are the criminal here.
[09:45] Nobu
    I, Imai Nobume, vice-captain
    of the Mimawarigumi,
[09:49] ---
    know everything you've done.
[09:51] Nobu
    Tokugawa Sadasada,
[09:53] Nobu
    you are under arrest for the
    assassination of Bakufu officials.
[09:57] Sada
    A surviving Hitotsubashi
    dog is talking about
[10:01] ---
    judging me in a court of law?
[10:04] Sada
    How can you judge me when
    I rule this country?
[10:08] ---
    When I am the law?
[10:11] Tsu
    If we cannot judge you on the surface,
[10:13] Tsu
    we will judge you underground.
[10:15] Tsu
    The woman's tears you
    spilled in Yoshiwara...
[10:18] Tsu
    The man's blood you spilled...
[10:19] Tsu
    The heavens may forgive you,
[10:22] Tsu
    but the law in Yoshiwara,
    Lady Death, will not.
[10:27] Tsu
    Release that man.
[10:28] Tsu
    Where did you take him?
[10:32] Tsu
    I just asked you a question!
[10:42] Oboro
    When disaster strikes,
[10:44] Oboro
    some choose to curse the heavens.
[10:47] Oboro
    When misfortune befalls you,
[10:50] Oboro
    it is the will of the heavens.
[10:52] Oboro
    The fate the heavens have dealt.
[10:54] Oboro
    You must silently accept that fate.
[10:57] Oboro
    Our blades serve as the
    voice of the heavens.
[11:00] Kag
    Who are they?
[11:01] Nobu
    Be careful. That's not
    your ordinary cult.
[11:04] Nobu
    They're a group of assassins
    who have served
[11:07] ---
    the rulers of this nation from
    the shadows for a long time.
[11:11] Nobu
    Men of taboo who were eliminated
    from central government
[11:14] Nobu
    when we entered a period of peace.
[11:16] Nobu
    When the Oniwabanshu was disbanded,
[11:20] Nobu
    Sadasada turned to them
    for his shady business.
[11:23] Oboro
    We are the Yatagarasu for the heavens.
[11:26] Oboro
    The Tenshoin Naraku.
[11:29] Nobu
    Oboro...
[11:30] Nobu
    The leader of the Tenshoin and
    the strongest Naraku warrior.
[11:34] Nobu
    That man is involved in this?
[11:36] Sada
    The one to judge is heaven.
    In other words, the shogun.
[11:40] Sada
    The earth-crawlers are the
    ones who are judged.
[11:43] Sada
    That is how the world works.
[11:45] Sada
    You are only allowed to
    look up at the heavens.
[11:49] Sada
    However, you need not lament.
[11:51] Sada
    The heavens do not
    always bring disaster.
[11:56] Sada
    The heavens also bring good fortune.
[12:00] Sada
    I believe you were
    looking for that man.
[12:03] Shin
    Gr-Grampy!
[12:05] Sada
    If you can escape alive, you will be
    able to reunite him with Suzuran.
[12:09] Sada
    Though I doubt he will survive
    long enough to reach Yoshiwara.
[12:13] Sada
    Even if he does survive,
[12:18] Sada
    he's lost the pinky he swore on
    and the arm he used to hold her.
[12:24] Sada
    He should just end his miserable life.
[12:27] Sada
    So much for loyalty when he's
    betrayed me not once, but twice.
[12:31] Sada
    The heavens are punishing
    him as a result.
[12:35] Sada
    And now he's literally an
    earth-crawling worm.
[13:01] Gin
    Hey.
[13:03] Gin
    The pinky he swore on is still around.
[13:07] Gin
    He's got five pinkies right
    here that are gonna drag you
[13:11] ---
    from heaven to hell.
[13:29] Grampy
    Wh-What are you...?
[13:31] Tsu
    You've endured so much.
[13:34] Tsu
    You've been through so much.
[13:36] Tsu
    I'm sorry that you had to wait so long.
[13:41] Tsu
    But there's nothing to worry about.
[13:43] Tsu
    The moon you have longed for
[13:45] Tsu
    has risen.
[13:47] Tsu
    In the land where you once made a vow,
[13:50] Tsu
    there is a light that will
    shine through any darkness.
[13:54] Tsu
    This moon will never fall.
[13:58] Tsu
    Shinpachi, Kagura, please guide him.
[14:01] Tsu
    We'll bring up the rear.
[14:03] Nobu
    I'm allowed to cut down
    whoever I want now, right?
[14:06] Tsu
    Yes, do as you please.
[14:08] Tsu
    In the morning, this will have
    been nothing more than a dream.
[14:16] Sada
    You're buying time for
    an old man to escape?
[14:19] Sada
    Do you really think you can escape
[14:22] Sada
    from my grasp?
[14:25] Gin
    I'm not running away.
[14:28] Gin
    Is it gonna be the sun or the
    moon that sits up in the sky?
[14:32] Gin
    Let's settle this once and for all.
[14:34] Gin
    How about it, heavenly errand boy?
[14:47] Tsu
    Let's go!
[15:56] Tsu
    What are you doing, Gintoki?!
[15:57] Tsu
    Pull yourself together!
[15:58] Nobu
    If you want to die, I'll
    cut you up right now.
[16:01] Nobu
    You were hit in a pressure point.
[16:03] Nobu
    By a poisoned needle.
[16:05] Gin
    Is it bad?
[16:06] Nobu
    It'll paralyze you,
[16:08] Nobu
    and kill you if the poison isn't removed.
[16:14] Sada
    You seem to be struggling.
[16:17] Sada
    It's rare to see someone
    last so long against you, Oboro.
[16:26] Oboro
    Actually, it's happened once before.
[16:30] Oboro
    There was a demon who chose
    to oppose the heavens.
[16:40] Oboro
    You still have that same
    look in your eyes,
[16:44] Oboro
    White Yaksha.
[16:45] Gin
    Yo—
[16:48] Gin
    You're...
[16:50] Tsu
    Gintoki?
[16:51] Sada
    Oh? Do you know him, Oboro?
[16:55] Oboro
    My Lord, he is an orphan
    of the Kansei purge.
[16:58] Tsu
    Kansei purge?
[17:01] Sada
    Are you from Yoshiwara?
[17:03] Sada
    Then you wouldn't know.
[17:06] Sada
    The Joi war...
[17:07] Sada
    When the nation was opened
    up, the ignorant samurai
[17:11] ---
    accused the Bakufu of selling
    the country and revolted.
[17:17] Sada
    As our relationship with the Amanto
    soured, we put down the samurai.
[17:22] Sada
    Ever since, this nation has
    been in a state of civil war.
[17:27] Sada
    As the war dragged on, the Amanto
    began intervening in domestic affairs
[17:31] ---
    under the pretense
    of cleansing the rebels.
[17:36] Sada
    Ironic that the Joi revolt led
    to increased Amanto influence.
[17:41] Sada
    And then the Tendoshu instructed
    the Bakufu to initiate
[17:45] ---
    the deadliest cleansing of the
    century, the Kansei purge.
[17:49] Sada
    Every last Joi rebel, from
    the minor agitators to
[17:53] ---
    the public officials, was
    targeted as part of the purge.
[17:57] Sada
    The brutal crackdown led to a
    sharp decline in Joi activity.
[18:03] Sada
    Oboro and his brethren were
    instrumental in that process.
[18:08] Sada
    They were led by his predecessor,
[18:12] ---
    but he was every bit as
    skilled in the martial arts.
[18:17] Oboro
    My Lord, that wasn't the
    end of the samurai.
[18:22] Oboro
    While many samurai threw away their
    swords after losing their leaders,
[18:26] Oboro
    some were plotting to rescue
    one of those captive leaders.
[18:31] Oboro
    They were these men, the ones
    known as the last samurai.
[18:38] Oboro
    They were the students of
[18:40] ---
    the evil criminal who dared
    to oppose the heavens,
[18:43] Oboro
    Yoshida Shoyo.
[18:45] Oboro
    His students took up their swords
    to rescue their teacher.
[18:51] Tsu
    G-Gintoki?
[18:53] Tsu
    You lost your teacher?
[18:56] Oboro
    Do you recall that name, my Lord?
[19:00] Sada
    Yoshida Shoyo...
[19:03] Sada
    Was there such a person?
[19:07] Sada
    Do you think I remember the corpses of
[19:09] ---
    every worm I stomped on my way to power?
[19:11] Sada
    If he happened to be a major
    criminal, I might remember him.
[19:14] Sada
    What was his crime?
[19:18] Oboro
    Actually, I can't recall either.
[19:22] Oboro
    I do remember that he
    taught sword and pen
[19:25] ---
    to some children in the country.
[19:27] Sada
    That was it?
[19:29] Oboro
    However, my Lord, we
    were told to crush such gatherings
[19:33] ---
    as they might foment rebellion.
[19:38] Sada
    I see. And I was correct to order that.
[19:42] Sada
    Yoshida Shoyo...
[19:43] Sada
    His crime was creating
     dissenters like him.
[19:51] Tsu
    Wait, Gintoki!
[19:59] Oboro
    Why is the demon who battled the
    heavens and fell to the ground
[20:03] Oboro
    still wandering around here?
[20:09] Oboro
    Why is the demon who lost everything
    to the heavens still howling at them?
[20:15] Oboro
    You, all of you, should
    have learned your lesson.
[20:19] Oboro
    You can shout, you can scream,
[20:22] Oboro
    but your voices will
    never reach the heavens.
[20:26] Oboro
    And neither will your sobs.
[20:32] Tsu
    Gintoki!
[20:37] Oboro
    Will you make the same mistake
    again, White Yaksha?
[20:41] Oboro
    You can sit there and watch
    until you bleed to death.
[20:44] Oboro
    As everything you tried to
    protect is destroyed again.
[20:50] Oboro
    Shoyo is also watching
[20:53] Oboro
    as the student he sacrificed
    his life to protect
[20:55] Oboro
    falls apart without protecting a thing.
[21:03] Gin
    Don't you leave...
[21:06] Gin
    Don't you leave!
[21:09] Gin
    You bastards are...
[21:18] Tsu
    Gintoki!
[21:27] Shin
    Kagura-chan!
[21:29] All
    Die!
[21:38] Gin
    Move...
[21:43] Gin
    Move!
[21:48] Gin
    Please...
[21:50] Gin
    Move!
[22:00] Kondo
    Excuse me.
[22:01] Kondo
    What are you doing here
    so late at night?
[22:04] Sasa
    Excuse me, could you please
    show me your license?
[22:08] Kondo
    Good evening.
[22:10] Sasa
