SIGN    Restaurant Ketsunoi
[01:31] W
    Welcome.
[01:35] W
    Your room is this way.
[01:39] Kat
    You're late, Gintoki!
[01:41] Kat
    If this were back during the Joi War,
[01:44] Kat
    our troops might've been left in disarray
[01:46] Kat
    and suffered massive losses because of you.
[01:51] Sak
    Don't be a stick in the mud!
[01:53] Sak
    You know Kintoki isn't the kind of man
    who'd let military rules bind him.
SIGN    Joi Rebels Reunion
[01:57] Sak
    Did you forget how uncooperative he
    was, always going off on his own,
[02:00] Sak
    running wild and launching
    surprise attacks and whatnot?
SIGN    Joi Rebels Reunion
[02:04] Kat
    I couldn't forget, even if I wanted to.
[02:06] Kat
    We were the ones who always had to
    clean up after his messes, after all.
[02:09] Sak
    That's right.
[02:12] Sak
    Takes you back, doesn't it?
[02:15] Kat
    Yeah, those were the days.
[02:17] Kat
    Thinking back, it was ten years ago...
SIGN    Arriving Late to a Reunion
    Makes it Hard to Enter
[02:20] Kat
    Wait a second!
[02:29] Kat
    Wait a second!
[02:31] Sak
    Why not take a trip down memory lane?
[02:34] Kat
    Don't you get it?
[02:35] Kat
    The three of us don't
    get together very often!
[02:38] Kat
    It's a rare case!
[02:39] Kat
    It's a reunion!
[02:40] Kat
    Shouldn't you be overcome with joy?
[02:42] Gin
    Like hell I'd feel any of that.
[02:45] Gin
    I've had enough of seeing your
    mugs in the openings and endings.
[02:48] Gin
    You show up every episode,
    even though you're irrelevant.
[02:51] Gin
    I'm sick of it.
[02:52] Gin
    Nobody needs any more merch of you morons.
[02:56] Sak
    You didn't have to say it like that!
[02:58] Sak
    I may show up in the OPs/EDs,
[02:59] Sak
    but I don't get any actual screen time at all!
[03:02] Sak
    I'm getting the "Hoshi Ittetsu
    flips the table" treatment,
[03:04] Sak
    which only happens a handful of
    times in the actual episodes!
[03:10] Gin
    I only came here 'cause you said there
    was something important to discuss.
[03:13] Gin
    I don't have time to waste on you two goofs.
[03:16] Sak
    Chill out, Kintoki.
[03:18] Sak
    Drink up.
[03:20] Gin
    I'm not Kintoki, damn it.
[03:22] Kat
    There is but one reason I called
    all us former comrades here.
[03:26] Kat
    The anime has successfully
    resumed a second time,
[03:28] Kat
    and it's been released on Blu-ray.
[03:31] Kat
    There couldn't be a more perfect time.
[03:33] Gin
    For what?
[03:35] Kat
    Isn't it high time
[03:37] Kat
    we started a flashback arc?
[03:40] Gin
    Is this a scenario meeting?!
[03:41] Kat
    Don't you think we need fresh
    developments now, more than ever?
[03:45] Gin
    Who are you to be worrying about that?!
[03:48] Kat
    You must know this, too.
[03:50] Kat
    Using flashback arcs to give Jump anime
    second winds is almost standard procedure.
[03:55] Kat
    Countless series in the past
[03:58] Kat
    have used flashback arcs as a trigger
[04:00] Kat
    to move on to even greater
    heights of popularity.
[04:04] Kat
    And when do we want that second wind?
[04:06] Sak
    W...
[04:07] Sak
    Was there a mosquito flying around just now?
[04:09] Gin
    Not "we want it now"?!
[04:11] Gin
    Also, that's old!
[04:13] Gin
    Who'd want to watch such an
    obviously calculated flashback arc?
[04:17] Gin
    First of all,
[04:18] Gin
    nobody cares about the past
    or future of you idiots.
[04:22] Gin
    You've always been idiots,
    and you always will be.
[04:25] Gin
    Besides, I hate looking back on the past.
[04:28] Gin
    Even in reunions...
[04:30] Kat
    And dude,
[04:32] Kat
    I'd always finish my lunch in
    the morning self-study period.
[04:35] Sak
    Oh, man, I remember that!
[04:37] Sak
    And then, during lunch break,
    we'd rob everyone of their side dishes!
[04:40] Kat
    We did the stupidest things back then!
[04:45] Gin
    The guys who didn't amount to much in life
[04:47] Gin
    are always the ones making the most
    noise reminiscing about the past.
[04:51] Gin
    Especially the delinquents!
[04:52] Sak
    Are you calling me loud?
[04:55] Sak
    Can you blame me?!
[04:57] Sak
    The past is the only time I ever get to appear!
[05:00] Kat
    Stop that, you two.
[05:03] Kat
    Gintoki, it's because you're always like that
[05:06] Kat
    that nothing about our past
    has been revealed yet.
[05:09] Kat
    Even if you don't care,
[05:11] Kat
    and even if the gorilla mangaka
    hasn't thought of anything,
[05:15] Kat
    we will enter a flashback arc today.
[05:17] Kat
    No, we have to.
[05:25] Gin
    "It's been a while.
[05:26] Gin
    Are you doing well?
[05:28] Gin
    Actually, I'm in Edo right now.
[05:31] Gin
    If you'd like, why don't we
    get the gang back together
[05:34] Gin
    for a drink or two?"
[05:37] Kat
    To tell you the truth, we weren't the ones
[05:40] Kat
    who arranged this mini-reunion of Joi rebels.
[05:43] Kat
    Our former comrade, the one who
    sent that letter, is the organizer.
[05:49] Gin
    Who is this?
[05:50] Gin
    I don't remember.
[05:52] Kat
    So you don't remember him, either.
[06:00] Kat
    In the Joi war,
[06:02] Kat
    an era when every man
    fought for his country,
[06:05] Kat
    when every man was a hero,
[06:09] Kat
    the ones who survived
    through sheer devil's luck
[06:11] Kat
    and left their names in
    the history books were...
[06:17] Kat
    The White Yaksha, Sakata Gintoki.
SIGN    The White Yaksha
SIGN    Sakata Gintoki
[06:22] Kat
    The Rampaging Noble, Katsura Kotaro.

[06:28] Kat
    The Kiheitai Commander, Takasugi Shinsuke.

SIGN    Takasugi Shinsuke
[06:35] Kat
    The Loud Fellow, Sakamoto Tatsuma.
SIGN    The Loud Fellow
SIGN    Sakamoto Tatsuma
[06:38] Sak
    That's weird!
[06:39] Sak
    One of those is not like the others!
[06:42] Sak
    These four men would later
[06:45] Sak
    come to be known as the
    "Generation of Miracles."
[06:48] Gin
    I don't remember ever being called that!
[06:51] Kat
    However, it was only by luck that our
    names were recorded in history.
[06:56] Kat
    In truth,
[06:58] Kat
    there was another hero.
[07:00] Kat
    In our shadows was a man who fought
    to keep the battle in our favor,
[07:05] Kat
    a key figure who assisted
    us from behind the scenes.
[07:10] Kat
    A nameless hero unbeknownst to all.
[07:16] Kat
    And indeed, the organizer of this reunion:
SIGN    Kurokono Tasuke
SIGN    The Phantom Fifth Man
[07:22] Kat
    The Phantom Fifth Man, Kurokono Tasuke.
SIGN    Kurokono Tasuke
[07:26] Gin
    Hold it right there!
[07:28] Gin
    I've never heard of that guy!
[07:30] Gin
    Actually, I have, but in another anime!
[07:33] Kat
    I see.
[07:34] Kat
    Kurokono Tasuke is a man of legendary status.
[07:37] Kat
    It wouldn't surprise me if someone
    made an anime ripping him off.
SIGN    Kurokono Tasuke
[07:40] Gin
    We're the ones doing the ripping off!
[07:42] Sak
    Actually, I'm the same as you.
    I can't even remember his face.
[07:46] Sak
    After all, he was a man who worked
    exclusively behind the scenes.
[07:49] Sak
    I retain no impression of
    the kind of man he was
[07:52] Sak
    or the kind of stuff he did.
[07:53] Sak
    What a guy.
[07:55] Gin
    What part of that makes him a hero?!
[07:56] Gin
    If anything, his lack of
    presence is what's heroic!
[07:59] Sak
    But considering he called us to a reunion,
[08:02] Sak
    we'd better remember something about
    him or things will get awkward.
[08:05] Sak
    As such,
[08:06] Sak
    let's plunge into a flashback arc before
    he shows up and see if we recall anything.
SIGN    Joi Rebels Reunion
[08:11] Gin
    We're entering a flashback just so we have
    something to talk about at this reunion?!
[08:14] Gin
    What kind of setup is that?!
[08:15] Gin
    Did this guy even exist in the first place?!
[08:18] Kat
    He did.
[08:19] Kat
    Kurokono certainly did stand on
    the same battlefield as we did.
[08:24] Kat
    He was a master of assists.
[08:27] Kat
    Given the way he worked,
[08:28] Kat
    if we think back to incidents where
    we got help at the perfect time,
[08:33] Kat
    we should be able to remember.
[08:37] Kat
    Oh?
[08:38] Kat
    Something's coming to me!
[08:39] Kat
    I'm starting to remember...
[08:41] Sak
    Really, Zura?
[08:43] Kat
    I believe that was...
[08:46] Kat
    Right, it was at the height of the Joi War.
[08:53] Kat
    During a match with the powerhouse Joi High,
    with the Inter-High victory at stake.
[08:57] Gin
    No way that's right!
[08:59] Gin
    Why were you playing basketball?!
[09:01] Kat
    I wasn't.
[09:03] Kat
    Back then, I'd ignored the coach's
    repeated orders to cut my long hair,
[09:08] Kat
    and had been benched as punishment.
[09:10] Gin
    That wasn't my point!
[09:12] Gin
    I'm asking you when you had
    the time to play basketball!
[09:15] Kat
    Long-haired and powerless, all I could do was
[09:18] Kat
    cheer my teammates on from the sidelines.
[09:20] Gin
    Just cut your damn hair!
[09:21] Gin
    Actually, go fight in the war!
[09:24] Kat
    I was so powerless, I chilled my
    Pokari to the point that it froze,
[09:29] Kat
    leaving me unable to even quench my thirst.
[09:32] Gin
    For a benchwarmer, why were you so
    enthusiastic about chilling your Pokari?!
[09:35] Gin
    Thought you were on a picnic?!
[09:36] Kat
    With my throat parched and
    my body and soul worn out,
[09:40] Kat
    I thought I was done for.
[09:43] Kat
    But that's when...
[09:47] (Flashback) Kur
    Want some?
[09:51] Kat
    The man who, by a misdirection,
[09:52] Kat
    to assist me with a Pokari perfectly
    chilled to a sherbet state...
[09:59] Kat
    was Kurokono Tasuke.
[10:01] Gin
    You call that an assist?!
[10:03] Gin
    I'm willing to overlook the basketball,
[10:05] Gin
    but at least make him
    assist you on the court!
[10:07] Kat
    That Pokari tasted especially divine.
[10:10] Gin
    All you did was drink Pokari on the bench!
[10:13] Gin
    You call that a flashback arc?!
[10:15] Kat
    No, it wasn't just the Pokari.
[10:17] Kat
    Like I said, he was a master of assists.
[10:19] Kat
    I remember him being louder
    than others while cheering, too.
[10:22] Sak
    Louder?
[10:26] (Flashback) Sak
    Rebound!
[10:27] (Flashback) Sak
    Nice shot!
[10:29] Sak
    Zura, that was me.
[10:31] Kat
    Huh? Is that so?
[10:33] Gin
    Why were you in the basketball game, too?!
[10:35] Sak
    Oh, that wasn't during the Joi War.
[10:39] Sak
    The war had ended and
    people were feeling down,
[10:42] Sak
    so we decided to play basketball
    for a change of pace.
[10:44] Gin
    You guys were doing stupid crap like
    that when everything was in tatters?!
[10:49] Sak
    That aside, I'm pretty sure Kurokono...
[10:51] Kat
    Did you remember something?
[10:54] Sak
    Right.
[10:55] Sak
    It was at the height of the Joi War.
SIGN    In Use
[11:02] Sak
    Back then, I was desperately trying to
    remove the aliens from the interior ministry.
[11:09] Gin
    What kind of Joi War is that?!
[11:13] Sak
    I was young and stupid.
[11:15] Sak
    I hadn't realized
[11:18] Sak
    that starting wars was easy, but
    cleaning up the mess was much harder.
[11:22] Gin
    Hey!
[11:23] Gin
    Why are you making such a big deal
    over the lack of toilet paper?!
[11:26] Sak
    I'd mouthed off about rebuilding the
    country, but I lacked the means to do so.
[11:31] Sak
    My foolishness had left me in
    despair, but that's when...
[11:35] Sak
    I saw it.
[11:41] Sak
    It felt like everything had been washed anew.
[11:44] Gin
    Pokari again?!
[11:45] Gin
    You've been talking about nothing
    but Pokari the entire time!
[11:48] Gin
    Don't tell me you used that to wash!
[11:49] Gin
    You used Pokari?!
[11:51] Sak
    Oh, that's right.
[11:52] Sak
    While I was in the bathroom,
[11:56] Sak
    I passed by a man.
[11:58] Sak
    That must've been...
[12:00] Gin
    It's just Zura from before!
[12:03] Sak
    Oh, so that Pokari really was yours?
[12:06] Kat
    Yeah.
[12:07] Kat
    I'd drunk too much chilled
    Pokari and upset my stomach.
[12:11] Sak
    Ah. That's one mystery solved.
[12:14] Gin
    What happened to Kurokono?!
[12:16] Gin
    Forget about basketball and Pokari!
[12:17] Gin
    Don't you have any memories of
    being saved on the battlefield?!
[12:20] Kat
    On the battlefield?
[12:22] Kat
    Oh, there was that one time!
[12:25] Kat
    Don't you remember it, too?
[12:27] Kat
    The rearguard battle on Mt. Eiroku!
[12:32] Kat
    As our forces numbering less than 300 took
    on the Bakufu army a thousand strong,
[12:36] Kat
    we received information that 3,000
    Amanto were marching toward our rear.
[12:40] Kat
    We were left with no option but to retreat,
[12:43] Kat
    and the unit Gintoki and I were in
[12:44] Kat
    was chosen as the rearguard
    to let the rest of us escape.
[12:49] Kat
    When we took up that responsibility,
    we were prepared to die.
[12:55] Kat
    I don't remember what happened
    after that very clearly.
[12:58] Kat
    I just cut down the enemies in
    front of me as I ran and ran.
[13:03] Kat
    Next thing I knew, I lay collapsed
    in the middle of the forest.
[13:08] Kat
    Having a parched throat felt strange.
[13:12] Kat
    Knowing I was breathing felt strange.
[13:17] Kat
    Shedding tears from my eyes felt strange.
[13:22] Kat
    But now I understand.
[13:25] Kat
    I was simply happy.
[13:28] Kat
    Happy that I'd managed to
    survive with my friend.
[13:33] Kat
    And that
[13:35] Kat
    Pokari was being sold there.
[13:37] Gin
    Where did the Pokari come from?!
[13:39] Gin
    Why is there a Pokari vending
    machine on the battlefield?!
[13:41] Gin
    Did that really happen?!
SIGN    Chilled
[13:45] Gin
    "Damn, what a ripoff,"
[13:48] Kat
    muttered Gintoki.
[13:49] Gin
    Muttered, my ass!
[13:52] Gin
    "I only have 4,000 yen,"
[13:53] Kat
    muttered Gintoki.
[13:55] Gin
    This is no time to be buying Pokari!
[13:56] Gin
    Run away!
[13:58] Kat
    "I have 10,000. I'll get two
    bottles, so gimme that 4,000.
[14:03] Kat
    You can pay me back the 500 yen later,"
[14:06] Kat
    I muttered.
[14:08] Gin
    "But I paid for Yakulk the other day.
[14:11] Gin
    So 4,000 yen should be enough,"
[14:13] Kat
    muttered Gintoki.
[14:16] Kat
    "But Yakulk is 540 yen for a five-pack,
    and I only got one of those.
[14:20] Kat
    540 divided by 5 is 108 yen, and
    4,500 minus 108 is 4,392 yen, right?"
[14:26] Kat
    I muttered.
[14:28] Gin
    "Does that include tax?"
[14:30] Kat
    muttered Gintoki.
[14:31] Gin
    Enough already! This is taking too long!
[14:34] Kat
    We decided that I'd pay there and Gintoki
    would pay me 4,300 yen once we got back,
[14:41] Kat
    but my condition took a turn for
    the worse once we got back to camp.
[14:45] Gin
    You're still going?!
[14:45] Gin
    How long is this story?!
[14:47] Kat
    With my consciousness gradually fading,
    I saw the faces of the men I'd protected.
[14:52] Gin
    Oh, so he'll show up now, right?
[14:54] Gin
    Kurokono Tasuke's finally
    gonna show up, right?!
[14:56] Kat
    I searched for the words to say to them,
[15:00] Kat
    but all I could manage was...
[15:04] (Flashback) Kat
    Gintoki made me pay him 108 yen
    for a Yakulk the other day.
[15:07] (Flashback) Kat
    Did he make you guys pay, too? It wouldn't be
    fair if I was the only one who had to pay.
[15:11] Gin
    Enough about that already!
[15:14] (Flashback) Sak
    What?
[15:15] (Flashback) Sak
    He took 540 yen from me.
    Did I only owe 108 yen?
[15:18] Gin
    What the hell are you talking
    about in the middle of a war?!
[15:20] Gin
    What's going on?!
[15:22] (Flashback) Kat
    You were ripped off, Sakamoto!
[15:25] (Flashback) Kat
    Damn Gintoki.
[15:26] (Flashback) Kat
    He said he was treating us, but he
    intended to rip us off all along!
[15:29] Gin
    I have no idea what you're talking about!
[15:30] Gin
    I don't remember that at all!
[15:36] (Flashback) Bo
    You...
[15:37] Gin
    Oh, I see.
[15:38] Gin
    So the one who cleared my
    good name was Kurokono...
[15:41] (Flashback) Tak
    As if he'd ever do something like that.
[15:45] (Flashback) Tak
    I was the one who treated you to Yakulk.
[15:48] (Flashback) Tak
    He didn't pay for anything.
[15:49] Gin
    It was you?!
[15:52] Kat
    There you have it.
[15:54] Kat
    Gimme back my 4,500 yen.
[15:56] Sak
    Gimme back my 540 yen.
[15:58] Gin
    This is the ending you arrived at?!
[16:00] Gin
    What about Kurokono?!
[16:01] Bo
    Just pay us back already!
[16:03] Gin
    Screw you!
[16:04] Gin
    I told you, I don't remember this!
[16:06] Gin
    As if he would treat anyone to Yakulk, anyway!
[16:09] Gin
    I'm done with this shitty reunion!
[16:12] W
    Excuse me, sirs.
[16:14] W
    Your friend has arrived.
[16:17] All
    H-He's here!
[16:20] Gin
    We haven't remembered a thing,
[16:22] Gin
    but Kurokono showed up
    at the reunion already!
[16:25] Gin
    I-I just remembered I had something to do.
[16:28] Gin
    I'll be back later.
[16:30] Sak
    Where do you think you're going, Kintoki?
[16:32] Kat
    We're not letting you get away!
[16:34] Kat
    The Pokari money...
[16:35] Sak
    The Yakulk money...
[16:36] Kat
    Gimme back my 4,500 yen!
[16:36] Sak
    Gimme back my 540 yen!
[16:38] Gin
    That's what you're worried about?!
[16:39] Gin
    Who cares about that right now?!
[16:41] Gin
    Kurokono's almost here!
[16:43] Gin
    A really awkward reunion's about to begin!
[16:46] Kat
    We're not falling for that.
[16:48] Sak
    This has gone on for ten years.
    We're settling the score right now.
[16:51] Gin
    What kind of pathetic lives have you
    guys led for the past ten years?!
[16:58] Tak
    Talk about a rowdy reunion.
[17:03] Tak
    Relax.
[17:05] Tak
    Kurokono's not here yet.
[17:08] Tak
    For this reunion to begin,
[17:11] Tak
    and for you to welcome the phantom fifth man,
[17:15] Tak
    don't you think you're one member short?
[17:17] Gin
    Y-You're...
[17:21] Kat
    It can't be!
[17:22] Tak
    That's right.
[17:24] Tak
    I'll simply destroy
[17:28] Hen
    this awkward reunion.
[17:34] Hen
    Time out! I was kidding!
[17:36] Hen
    It's just a reunion joke!
[17:40] Hen
    Spare my shins, 'kay?
[17:43] Gin
    We stake our lives on our jokes, too.
[17:46] Gin
    Are you sure?
[17:47] Gin
    Are you okay with that being
    the last joke you ever tell?
[17:49] Kat
    Wait.
[17:50] Kat
    If memory serves, you're Takasugi's...
[17:54] Kat
    No, just a random lolicon—
[17:55] Hen
    I'm not a lolicon. I'm a feminist.
[17:59] Hen
    Actually, no.
[18:01] Hen
    I'm the Kiheitai's strategist,
    Takechi Henpeita.
[18:05] Gin
    Kihentai?! Did Takasugi
    send you to spy on us?!
[18:08] Hen
    I'm not a pervert. I'm a feminist.
[18:11] Hen
    Please wait.
[18:12] Hen
    While it's true that you and
    Shinsuke-dono are currently enemies,
[18:16] Hen
    our general is not boorish enough
    to ruin a gathering of his
[18:21] Hen
    former comrades over a personal grudge.
[18:25] Hen
    I'm merely here to relay a message from him.
[18:29] Gin
    Don't tell me he got invited
    to the reunion, too.
[18:32] Gin
    Nobody would talk to him even if he came!
[18:34] Gin
    He'd spend all night on his
    phone, and that'd be that!
[18:37] Hen
    He deeply regrets not being able to attend.
[18:41] Hen
    After all,
[18:43] Hen
    Shinsuke-dono and Kurokono-dono
    were so close,
[18:47] Hen
    it wouldn't be an exaggeration
    to call them best friends.
[18:50] Gin
    R-Really?
[18:51] Gin
    He had a best friend?
[18:54] Hen
    Knowing you all, he figured you
    wouldn't remember anything,
[18:58] Hen
    so he entrusted me with a letter.
[19:01] Gin
    A letter?
[19:02] Sak
    From him?
[19:03] Kat
    To us?
[19:05] Hen
    He hopes that it'll help jog
    your memories at least a little.
[19:10] Gin
    F-For real?
[19:11] Gin
    So he remembers Kurokono?
SIGN    The Yakulk at this reunion's on me, too. Drink with Shirako all you want.
[19:16] Tak
    The Yakulk at this reunion's on me, too.
[19:19] Tak
    Drink with Shirako all you want.
[19:21] Gin
    Who the hell is Shirako?
[19:22] Gin
    He got his best friend's name all wrong!
[19:25] Gin
    Also, is he still holding a
    grudge over the Yakulk thing?
[19:27] Gin
    Did he really write this?!
[19:31] Hen
    Oops.
[19:31] Hen
    Sorry, wrong letter.
[19:34] Gin
    I knew it!
[19:35] Gin
    Takasugi would never write
    something like that!
[19:37] Hen
    If I recall correctly,
[19:39] Hen
    he couldn't attend the
    Kiheitai's New Year's bash,
[19:43] Hen
    so he sent this letter along with
    tons of Yakulk and shirako roe.
[19:46] Gin
    So it was Takasugi?!
[19:47] Gin
    Even there, he's buying people Yakulk?!
[19:49] Gin
    He's become a Yakulk character with that face?!
[19:51] Gin
    No way!
[19:53] Hen
    My apologies.
[19:55] Hen
    There's indeed no way Shinsuke-dono
    would write something like this.
[19:58] Hen
    This is the actual letter.
SIGN    There's Yakulk in the fridge. Please save one for me.
[20:00] Tak
    There's Yakulk in the fridge.
[20:03] Tak
    Please save one for me.
[20:06] Gin
    Nothing's changed!
[20:08] Gin
    Forget Kurokono, he's talking
    about nothing but Yakulk now!
[20:12] Gin
    This is a joke, right?
[20:12] Gin
    Tell me it's all a joke, Barney!
[20:15] Hen
    Oops. Wrong letter.
[20:16] Hen
    I think this is the note he left the Kiheitai
[20:19] Hen
    when he had to travel
    for a few days recently.
[20:21] Gin
    Deny that Takasugi wrote this!
[20:23] Gin
    You okay with this? You're okay with
    this guy being your general?
[20:26] Hen
    My apologies. This one really
    is the actual letter.
SIGN    Rest in peace, my comrade
[20:32] Tak
    Rest in peace, my comrade.
[20:39] Hen
    I shall take my leave now, then.
[20:44] Gin
    I-I have no idea what
    this is supposed to mean!
[20:48] Gin
    Pokari and
[20:50] Gin
    "rest in peace"?
[20:52] Gin
    What does it mean?!
[20:54] Gin
    All he's done is make
    things more complicated!
[20:57] Gin
    Would he give it a rest with his
    pretentious bullshit already?!
[21:01] Sak
    Wait, Kintoki.
[21:05] Sak
    This Pokari...
[21:08] Sak
    I... I see.
[21:10] Sak
    Whenever Zura and I tried
    to remember Kurokono,
[21:15] Sak
    we kept getting distracted by Pokari, but...
[21:19] Kat
    We weren't on the wrong track!
[21:22] Kat
    Our past with Kurokono really was linked...
[21:27] Bo
    ...to this Pokari.
[21:29] Gin
    What're you talking about?
[21:32] Gin
    Don't tell me, you remembered everything?
[21:35] Gin
    Thanks to this Pokari?
[21:37] Gin
    You've gotta be kidding me.
[21:38] Gin
    How could this...
