[00:05] Oboro
    Shoyo is also watching
[00:07] Oboro
    as the student he sacrificed
    his life to protect
[00:10] Oboro
    falls apart without protecting a thing.
[00:14] Gin
    Don't you leave...
[00:16] Gin
    Don't you leave!
[00:19] Tsu
    Gintoki!
[00:30] Kondo
    Excuse me.
[00:31] Kondo
    What are you doing here
    so late at night?
[00:34] Sasa
    Excuse me, could you please
    show me your license?
[02:09] Oboro
    Please hurry, My Lord.
[02:11] Sada
    What's the matter, Oboro?
[02:12] Sada
    I was hoping to watch those
    rebels meet their demise.
[02:19] Oboro
    The crows are astir.
[02:21] Oboro
    It appears that there's
    been a shift in the wind.
[02:24] Sada
    What are you talking about?
[02:26] Sada
    Those rebels are already...
[02:33] Kondo
    Good evening.
[02:35] Sasa
    This is the police.
[02:37] Sasa
    What are you people doing?
[02:41] Sasa
    If you screw up...
[02:43] Kondo
    We'll lose our heads!
[02:46] Gin
    Y-You guys...
SIGN    Pinky Swear
[02:58] A
    I-Impossible!
[02:59] A
    Why are the Mimawarigumi
    inside the palace?!
[03:01] B
    What's going on here?!
[03:04] B
    You serve the Bakufu!
[03:06] B
    You're police officers, yet you assist
    the rebels, you traitorous scum?!
[03:10] Kondo
    Assist the rebels?
[03:12] Kondo
    Don't make false accusations.
[03:16] Kondo
    There was an order to execute
    those criminals in the morning.
[03:20] Kondo
    If you're trying to dispatch
    them before the sun is up,
[03:24] Kondo
    you would be the ones
    defying the government.
[03:28] Kondo
    Our lord ordered us to guard
[03:30] ---
    the criminals until the
    execution takes place.
[03:33] Kondo
    In other words, it is our duty
    to protect them until morning.
[03:40] Shin
    K-Kondo-san...
[03:42] A
    You rural samurai don't get to talk!
[03:44] A
    Have you forgotten who let you
    country bumpkins keep your swords?!
[03:48] A
    And now you're biting the
    hand that feeds you!
[03:51] A
    You're lower than rebel
    scum, you animals!
[03:53] Oki
    I'm fine with being an animal.
[03:55] Oki
    Beats being a dog that wags
    its tail at fat pigs.
[04:00] Oki
    When a fat pig is lying
    on the ground before you,
[04:03] Oki
    it gets eaten by
[04:05] Oki
    the wolves.
[04:07] Kag
    Don't call me a pig,
    you punk Chihuahua!
[04:09] Oki
    I wasn't talking about you, Miss Piggy!
[04:11] Kag
    It was about me!
[04:12] A
    Were you the ones who let the
    Mimawarigumi inside the palace?!
[04:15] A
    Has Sasaki joined forces with the
    Shinsengumi to start a coup d'etat?!
[04:22] Hiji
    Who joined forces with who
    to start a what d'etat?
[04:27] Hiji
    Why don't you repeat that?
[04:29] A
    Have you...
[04:31] Hiji
    Eh? I couldn't hear you. What was that?
[04:33] B
    ...and the Mimawarigumi...
[04:35] Hiji
    I said that I can't hear you! Yell it out!
[04:39] C
    ...joined forces?
[04:40] Hiji
    Can't hear a thing! And I'm
    not interested in hearing you!
[04:43] Hiji
    You make me want to throw up!
[04:44] Hiji
    Who would join forces
    with those losers?!
[04:46] Kondo
    Calm down, Toshi.
[04:47] Hiji
    Okay, Kondo-san.
[04:48] Hiji
    We've got them inside the palace.
[04:50] Hiji
    Let's torch 'em with Sadasada!
[04:52] Kondo
    Wait! That wasn't part of the plan!
[04:54] Kondo
    Hell, you're sounding
    like one of the Joi now!
[04:55] A
    Forget it! Kill 'em all!
[04:59] Sasa
    Oh, it appears that
    they've gotten started.
[05:03] Sasa
    As you can see, the palace has
    been surrounded by us elites.
[05:08] Sasa
    I told them to drop their weapons
    and surrender, but I was lying.
[05:13] Sasa
    I've always wanted to say that.
[05:16] Sasa
    Please don't drop your weapons.
[05:19] Sasa
    It would look bad if the cops
[05:21] ---
    were to slaughter a
    bunch of unarmed people.
[05:25] Gin
    Y-You bastard...
[05:27] Nobu
    You're late.
[05:28] Sasa
    I'm so sorry, Nobume-san.
[05:31] Sasa
    Thank you for carrying out your
    mission alone while I was gone.
[05:36] Sasa
    Here's a donut for you.
[05:40] Sasa
    You see, being an elite, I was
    able to avoid a lethal blow,
[05:44] Sasa
    but it took a while to remove
    the poison from my body.
[05:46] Sasa
    Well, it was still easier than
    removing a curry udon stain.
[05:52] Sasa
    And it appears that you took good
    care of our Nobume, Sakata-san.
[05:57] Sasa
    I owe you now.
[06:00] Nobu
    They only got in my way.
[06:02] Sasa
    You can't blame them.
[06:04] Sasa
    Nobume-san, they're ordinary
    people, unlike us elites.
[06:09] Sasa
    But it appears that he won't be
    of any more use at this point.
[06:13] Gin
    That's bullshit.
[06:16] Gin
    The elite must be really
    special to need help
[06:19] ---
    from the ordinary to make it back here.
[06:22] Sasa
    It wasn't by choice.
[06:25] Sasa
    A certain person requested
    that we work together.
[06:28] Sasa
    And we are simply using each
    other to ensure our survival.
[06:33] Sasa
    The enemy of my enemy is my friend.
[06:35] Sasa
    Oh, excuse me.
[06:37] Sasa
    That's probably too difficult for
    you ordinary folk to understand.
[06:41] Sasa
    Essentially, it's like Nobita and
    Gian in the Doraemon movies.
[06:45] Sasa
    Two rivals who will use each other
     to achieve the same purpose
[06:50] ---
    when faced with a crisis.
[06:53] Gin
    Doraemon isn't such a dark story.
[06:56] Sasa
    In other words...
[07:04] Sasa
    Sakata-san, you are useless trash now.
[07:09] Sasa
    Now that I've disposed of that
    garbage, let's clean this place up.
[07:17] Tsu
    Bastard!
[07:21] Tsu
    Gintoki!
[07:22] Tsu
    Hang in there!
[07:23] Tsu
    Hey, Ginto—
[07:32] Tsu
    Gintoki, you...
[07:35] Tsu
    What is this?
[07:36] Sasa
    It's a form of acupuncture.
[07:38] Sasa
    His body will still feel numb for a while,
[07:40] Sasa
    but at least he'll be able to move.
[07:43] Sasa
    I also injected some serum into him.
[07:45] Sasa
    The elite never miss a step.
[07:48] Sasa
    Consider my debt paid.
[07:51] Sasa
    Now, go back to the
    other ordinary people.
[07:54] Sasa
    If you stick around, you'll end up
    being taken out with the trash.
[07:59] Gin
    Don't make me laugh.
[08:02] Gin
    You're not giving me any interest
    after taking this long to get here?!
[08:07] Sasa
    Begging for more again?
[08:09] Sasa
    What do you want?
[08:17] Gin
    Sadasada's head.
[08:19] Sasa
    Good grief.
[08:21] Sasa
    That's a lot of interest.
[08:25] Gin
    Nah, his head's worth nothing.
[08:35] Sasa
    I have an order for the Mimawarigumi.
[08:37] Sasa
    All elites will begin supporting
    that ordinary man.
[08:41] Sasa
    On our pride as elites, we must not
    allow a single person to go upstairs.
[08:48] Tsu
    You won't listen if I tell you that
    your body can't take any more.
[08:52] Tsu
    Then I'm coming with you.
[08:53] Tsu
    I won't let you break our promise.
[08:55] Tsu
    That goes for you and Maizo.
[08:58] Nobu
    Time for the last stage.
[09:00] Nobu
    I won't let you hog the glory.
[09:04] Nobu
    The last bite of a donut
    is always the best.
[09:18] Sada
    What's going on here?
[09:21] Oboro
    The Shinsengumi and Mimawarigumi,
[09:23] ---
    the two largest police forces
    in Edo, have joined forces.
[09:27] Sada
    I was told that they were rivals.
[09:31] Oboro
    It would seem that someone
    has brought them together.
[09:35] Oboro
    The ship will be here soon.
[09:36] Oboro
    You should escape, for your own safety.
[09:40] Oboro
    My Lord.
[09:41] Sada
    Are they serious about
    taking over this country?
[09:45] Sada
    In that case, I must respond.
[09:50] Sada
    Summon every remaining police
    force to the palace.
[09:55] Sada
    We'll crush them with all of our might.
[10:03] A
    Wh-What's happening?!
[10:05] B
    B-Big trouble!
[10:06] B
    There are armies attacking
    the north and south gates!
[10:08] A
    Impossible! Who are they?!
[10:10] Matsu
    Listen up!
[10:11] Matsu
    Clear me a path in three seconds
[10:13] Matsu
    or else I blow down the gates.
[10:15] Matsu
    One.
[10:19] A
    What happened to two and three?!
[10:21] Matsu
    Couldn't tell you.
[10:22] ---
    A man only needs the number
    one to get through life.
[10:27] A
    Th-The entire police force?!
[10:30] A
    Impossible!
[10:31] A
    The police are rebelling?!
[10:34] A
    That's absolutely absurd!
[10:36] A
    This is no uprising!
[10:38] A
    Nobody's capable of bringing
    all these men together!
[10:42] Kondo
    There's one person who can do that.
[10:44] Kondo
    One person capable of ordering
    the police, or anyone, around.
[10:48] Kondo
    You still don't understand
    what this is, Lord Sadasada?
[11:06] Shige
    You are the traitor who has betrayed
[11:08] Shige
    this country.
[11:10] Sada
    Shigeshige... So you're behind this.
[11:13] A
    My Lord! What are you doing here?!
[11:17] Shige
    Lower your weapons.
[11:19] Shige
    We've wasted too much time fighting.
[11:21] Shige
    You men are valuable soldiers
    who defend this country.
[11:25] Shige
    I will not allow you to
    throw your lives away.
[11:28] A
    B-But, My Lord...
[11:29] A
    We have orders from Sadasada-sama.
[11:31] Shige
    Were you not listening?
[11:34] Shige
    I told you to drop your weapons.
[11:50] Shige
    Will you clear a path for me?
[11:57] A
    My Lord?!
[11:57] A
    You mustn't!
[11:59] A
    They're rebel scum who
    wronged our country!
[12:01] A
    It's dangerous to approach them!
[12:07] Shin
    Sh-Shogun-sama...
[12:10] Shige
    My shortcomings have caused
    you so much suffering.
[12:13] Shige
    Let me offer you my gratitude.
[12:15] Shige
    Thank you for defending
    my loyal retainer.
[12:20] Shige
    If it weren't for you, I would have...
[12:23] Shige
    We would have allowed the beloved
    man who raised us to die.
[12:28] Soyo
    Grampy!
[12:32] Mai
    Y-Your Highness...
[12:33] Shige
    Grampy, I'm sorry.
[12:36] Shige
    I was by your side,
[12:39] Shige
    yet I never realized your pain.
[12:43] Shige
    You've devoted your life to
    serving the shogun family,
[12:48] Shige
    yet we've only made you suffer for it.
[12:53] Shige
    Grampy, is it too late to
[12:58] ---
    fulfill your promise?
[13:01] Mai
    Shigeshige-sama...
[13:07] Shige
    Soyo, take care of Grampy.
[13:09] Soyo
    Yes, Brother.
[13:12] Shige
    Clear a path.
[13:17] Shige
    I need to talk to my uncle.
[13:19] Sada
    The man who raised them?
[13:22] Sada
    Oboro, what is he talking about?
[13:27] Sada
    Who was the one who turned a helpless,
[13:31] ---
    fatherless boy into the shogun?
[13:37] Sada
    Who was the one who kept
    you and this nation safe
[13:42] ---
    while being accused of
    selling out this country?!
[13:47] Sada
    It was me!
[13:49] Sada
    I, Tokugawa Sadasada, am
    the father of this nation!
[13:54] Sada
    My rule has kept this nation safe.
[13:58] Sada
    Despite all that, you now
    choose to turn on me?!
[14:04] Oboro
    They say that a doll will gain
    a heart if enough time passes,
[14:09] Oboro
    though it seems that this doll
    was given a stubborn soul.
[14:13] Oboro
    He's realized that you were protecting
    yourself, not this nation.
[14:19] Oboro
    If you continue to
    cling to this country,
[14:22] ---
    your position may not
    be the only thing lost.
[14:24] Oboro
    You may lose your life.
[14:26] Oboro
    Please join me in seeking
    help from the Tendoshu.
[14:30] Sada
    Are you telling me to abandon
[14:32] ---
    what's taken me half
    my life to build up?!
[14:34] Sada
    To run off to the Tendoshu and
    allow these traitors to live?!
[14:40] Oboro
    Considering the contributions
    you have made,
[14:42] ---
    they will surely assist
    in restoring you to power.
[14:46] Sada
    Nonsense.
[14:48] Sada
    They consider both myself
    and Shigeshige...
[14:51] Sada
    No, they consider this entire planet
    to be nothing more than a tool.
[14:55] Sada
    Isn't that right, messenger
    of the heavens,
[14:58] Sada
    Yatagarasu?
[15:01] Sada
    The Tendoshu sent you to ensure that
    I would be an expendable tool.
[15:07] Sada
    If I am the traitor who
    sold out this country,
[15:10] Sada
    you Naraku are the crows
    who feed on its carcass.
[15:16] Sada
    That ship is here to help?
[15:17] Sada
    Don't make me laugh!
[15:19] Sada
    Once I meet with the Tendoshu,
[15:21] Sada
    I'll never return to Earth.
[15:24] Oboro
    We are ready to take
    you wherever you wish.
[15:27] Oboro
    Our mission is to assist
    you in any way possible.
[15:33] Sada
    You'll take me wherever I wish?
[15:35] Sada
    In that case,
[15:37] Sada
    let's go to Yoshiwara!
[15:41] Sada
    The place where my rule began.
[15:43] Sada
    The cursed land where I was betrayed.
[15:47] Sada
    I want you to prove your
    loyalty to me in that place.
[15:51] Oboro
    Prove our loyalty? How?
[15:55] Sada
    Kill Suzuran.
[15:58] Sada
    That betrayal was where this all began.
[16:01] Sada
    So Maizo and Suzuran...
[16:04] Sada
    I will completely shatter your promise
    and end this once and for all.
[16:12] Sada
    I will punish every person
    who dared to betray me.
[16:17] Oboro
    If that is what you wish.
[16:20] Oboro
    I will follow shortly.
[16:22] Oboro
    Set sail for Yoshiwara.
[16:31] Gin
    Yoshiwara?
[16:33] Gin
    I don't think so.
[16:36] Gin
    This ship won't take you to paradise...
[16:40] Gin
    It's headed straight to hell, bastard.
[17:04] ---
    You bastard...
[17:08] Kondo
    Did he pull it off?
[17:11] Kagura
    Gi—
[17:12] Shin
    Gin-san!
[17:16] Oboro
    You refuse to die.
[17:19] Oboro
    I didn't expect you to drag that
    beaten body back before me again.
[17:23] Oboro
    You continue to fight?
    You continue to howl?
[17:27] Oboro
    If you would close your eyes, you
    would not suffer any more loss.
[17:31] Oboro
    Yet you return to the
    battlefield again,
[17:35] Oboro
    White Yaksha.
[17:37] Oboro
    It's too late now.
[17:39] Oboro
    No matter how much you struggle,
[17:41] Oboro
    none of it will come back to you.
[17:44] Oboro
    Not this country, not your
    friends, not Shoyo...
[17:47] Sada
    Th-The Tendoshu!
[17:49] Sada
    Did they come here after
    hearing about the revolt?!
[17:53] Sada
    I-It's over...
[17:55] Sada
    You're all finished!
[18:01] Oboro
    You are nothing more than a ghost
[18:02] ---
    who roams the battlefield in
    search of that which was lost.
[18:05] Oboro
    This is not where you belong.
[18:09] Oboro
    You will be consumed by the flames
    of revenge and sent back to hell,
[18:13] Oboro
    demon!
[18:19] Oboro
    He's trying to prevent me
    from using poison needles?

[18:28] Oboro
    He learned my technique just
    by experiencing it once?
[18:32] Gin
    Sent back to hell?
[18:34] Gin
    You must be dreaming.
[18:37] Gin
    You and I are already
    on a date in hell.
[18:47] Oboro
    Do you believe you can use
    my own technique against me?
[18:50] Oboro
    My assassination techniques aren't meant
[18:52] ---
    to attack enemy pressure points.
[18:55] Oboro
    They're meant for controlling my own
    pressure points to maximize my strength.
[18:59] Oboro
    I can easily remove any
    poison from my body.
[19:03] Sada
    O-Oboro...
[19:06] Gin
    That's enough.
[19:08] Gin
    Hell's too good for that guy,
[19:11] Gin
    but it seems appropriate
    for him to be judged
[19:13] ---
    by the laws he created.
[19:15] Oboro
    What?!
[19:24] Oboro
    I don't need needles to attack
    your pressure points!
[19:53] Oboro
    It's over, White Yaksha!
[19:57] Gin
    It's not over.
[19:59] Gin
    I haven't lost.
[20:04] Gin
    My body can still move.
[20:07] Gin
    My hand can still reach.
[20:10] Shoyo
    Gintoki,
[20:12] ---
    look after things for me.
[20:15] Shoyo
    Don't worry. It's no big deal.
[20:17] Shoyo
    I'll be back very soon.
[20:21] Shoyo
    So until then, please protect our friends,
[20:25] Shoyo
    protect everyone, for me.
[20:33] Shoyo
    Promise me that.
[20:47] Gin
    Yeah.
[20:48] Gin
    It's a promise.
[20:52] Gin
    Sensei!
[21:09] Oboro
    Go back to hell, White Yaksha!
[21:18] Gin
    Sorry, I have a prior engagement.
[21:21] Gin
    I already made reservations,
[21:25] Gin
    so you'll have to wait in hell for me.
[21:30] Gin
    Say hello to Sensei for me.
[21:32] Oboro
    You bastard!
[22:04] Gin
    Promises shouldn't be made lightly.
[23:45] Gin
    Uh, so when in summer is
    the movie coming out?
[23:49] Kagura
    Summer's a long time.
[23:51] Gin
    Stupid, summer is the period
    when TUBE is active.
[23:55] Gin
    So the movie can only be released
    when Maeda's feeling up to it.
[23:58] Shin
    Hell no!
SIGN    Unsetting Moon
SIGN    The Courtesan of a Nation arc
SIGN    ends next episode.
SIGN    Will the promises that were made
SIGN    be fulfilled...?
