**[00:01] M**
Vice Commander of the Chidori
Space Pirates' Second Division,
**[00:04] M**
Diamond Princess Mutsu.
**[00:06] Gin**
You were a space pirate?!
**[00:09] (Flashback) C**
Long time no see, Con—
**[00:13] (Flashback) Sak**
I've made up my mind.
**[00:16] (Flashback) Sak**
This ship now belongs to Sakamoto Tatsuma!
**[00:20] (Flashback) Sak**
I'll buy this ship, slaves and all.
**[00:24] (Flashback) W**
Thank you so very much, Captain.
**[00:28] (Flashback) W**
You're truly kind.
**[00:30] (Flashback) Sak**
Give and take.
**[00:32] (Flashback) Sak**
That's what business is all about.
**[00:36] (Flashback) C**
Tomorrow, at Planet Ken'o,
we shall execute all the slaves,
**[00:39] (Flashback) C**
along with that girl.
**[00:46] (Flashback) M**
Tell her it was delicious.
***SIGN*** Sakamoto Tatsuma's request: Watch this program in a
nice 'n' bright room and at a safe distance from your TV!!
**[02:31] M**
Even I couldn't say why
I did what I did back then.
**[02:37] M**
Perhaps I didn't want to get others
caught up in my own battles,
**[02:41] M**
or perhaps I wanted to atone for all
the slaves I'd sold up until then.
**[02:47] M**
No, most likely...
**[02:51] M**
the daughter of a pirate just wanted to
take part in a real trade at the very end.
***SIGN*** Always Leave Enough Room
for Pebbles in Your Bag
**[03:10] G**
Put out the fire!
**[03:14] Gin**
And? This is what your
"real trade" resulted in?
**[03:20] Gin**
Looks like you got some
pretty hefty change back.
**[03:24] M**
Yeah, droppin' all these coins
is most unbecomin' of a trader.
**[03:29] G**
Y-You bastards!
**[03:31] M**
I'd better collect 'em all this time.
**[03:34] M**
Right down to the very last yen.
**[03:45] Gin**
Where's that moron?
**[03:46] M**
They might've realized their bluff didn't work
**[03:48] M**
and decided to try to take him and escape.
**[03:51] M**
You search the deck.
**[03:54] Gin**
Got it.
**[03:59] Gin**
Wait, Muts—
**[04:06] Gin**
Why, you little...
**[04:12] G**
Welcome home, Vice Commander.
**[04:15] G**
How nice of you to finally come back to us.
**[04:20] G**
Let's pick up...
**[04:24] G**
where we left off that time.
**[04:31] (Flashback) C**
That's a pirate's daughter for you.
**[04:34] (Flashback) C**
You're putting on a brave
face right to the very end.
**[04:37] (Flashback) C**
Or so I'd like to say,
**[04:40] (Flashback) C**
but it seems you saw this coming.
**[04:44] (Flashback) M**
Everybody knows pirates don't
get to die painless deaths.
**[04:48] (Flashback) M**
And I can see the very next cut,
**[04:50] (Flashback) M**
where your face will be hit by bird
poop, coming from a mile away.
**[04:56] (Flashback) C**
Not again!
**[04:57] (Flashback) C**
And the seagulls on this planet drop huge turds!
**[05:01] (Flashback) C**
You're saying you were
prepared to die at any time?
**[05:04] (Flashback) C**
It won't come off...
**[05:06] (Flashback) C**
Then why did you stay on this ship?
**[05:12] (Flashback) C**
Was it for him, perhaps?
**[05:20] (Flashback) M**
Why didn't you run?
**[05:23] (Flashback) Sak**
The same reason you didn't.
**[05:28] (Flashback) Sak**
You alone weren't enough bait
**[05:31] (Flashback) Sak**
to ensure everyone could get away.
**[05:36] (Flashback) M**
You...
**[05:41] (Flashback) C**
By playing the decoy yourselves,
you tried to distract us
**[05:45] (Flashback) C**
and buy enough time for
the slaves to get away.
**[05:49] (Flashback) C**
Mutsu-sama, this is undeniably a rebellion.
**[05:53] (Flashback) C**
Now I can freely order your execution.
***SIGN*** 26.477
**[05:57] (Flashback) C**
And theirs, as well.
**[06:02] (Flashback) C**
How's it look?
**[06:03] (Flashback) G**
Targets sighted 50 km south of this ship.
**[06:09] (Flashback) G**
We just shot them down.
**[06:11] (Flashback) G**
The slaves are now sleeping with the fishes.
**[06:17] C**
Yes, it was just the same back then.
**[06:20] C**
You tried to protect your friends,
**[06:23] C**
but were unable to do anything
**[06:25] C**
and simply fell to the ground.
**[06:28] C**
And here you both are again,
**[06:31] C**
fallen on the ground.
**[06:33] C**
People never change, eh?
**[06:36] Sak**
Yeah, they don't.
**[06:39] Sak**
Just like your stupid face.
**[06:42] Sak**
Oh, sorry.
**[06:44] Sak**
I forgot I've never seen your face.
**[06:49] C**
Let me tell you this, Con Man!
**[06:52] C**
The one thing we wanted
to take back from you most
**[06:56] C**
was that girl's life!
**[06:58] C**
If she hadn't escaped back then,
**[07:00] C**
if I'd been the one at the helm,
**[07:03] C**
I could've gotten the crumbling
Chidori back on its feet!
**[07:06] C**
But this traitor ruined everything!
**[07:14] G**
Commander!
**[07:17] Sak**
You were the ones who tossed
her away, twice, like a pebble.
**[07:22] Sak**
I'm a trader.
**[07:23] Sak**
So long as I get paid, I'll gladly sell
you anythin', be it ships or bags.
**[07:28] Sak**
But no matter how large your offer,
**[07:31] Sak**
I have nothin' to sell to scum
**[07:35] Sak**
who don't understand the value
of those pebbles we call comrades.
**[07:40] Sak**
Could you please leave, good sir?
**[07:45] G**
Y-You bastard!
**[07:47] Sak**
People don't change, huh? Well said.
**[07:51] Sak**
You haven't changed a bit since then, either.
**[07:57] (Flashback) C**
Too bad.
**[07:59] (Flashback) C**
None of what you did affected
my plans in any way whatsoever.
**[08:06] (Flashback) C**
Now, if you'll sink to the depths of
the ocean, all will be as I planned.
**[08:10] (Flashback) M**
Business is no walk in the park, huh?
**[08:14] (Flashback) M**
In the end, all I did was take.
**[08:18] (Flashback) M**
I couldn't give them anything in return.
**[08:20] (Flashback) Sak**
Nah. Your pebble was a wonderful product.
**[08:25] (Flashback) Sak**
That was good business.
**[08:27] (Flashback) M**
That was nothing but a pebble.
**[08:30] (Flashback) Sak**
All goods are worth nothin'
'til they're on a store shelf.
**[08:33] (Flashback) Sak**
Traders are alchemists who derive
value from nothin' to turn a profit.
**[08:40] (Flashback) Sak**
That you discovered that value
makes you a proper trader.
**[08:44] (Flashback) Sak**
And now, it's my turn.
**[08:48] (Flashback) Sak**
Didn't I tell you that I'd buy
this ship, slaves and all?
**[08:53] (Flashback) Sak**
I never planned on leaving
anyone locked inside a cage.
**[08:58] (Flashback) Sak**
Including you, Mutsu.
**[09:01] (Flashback) Sak**
You're no longer a pirate,
**[09:04] (Flashback) Sak**
nor a mere pebble.
**[09:07] (Flashback) Sak**
You're a diamond I found in the rough,
**[09:13] (Flashback) Sak**
a gem known as a comrade!
**[09:16] C**
Y-You fiends!
**[09:19] M**
We played dead and disguised
ourselves among your men.
**[09:22] M**
I can't believe you fell for it twice.
**[09:24] M**
You really aren't cut out to be a captain.
**[09:28] M**
One moronic captain is more than enough.
**[09:34] (Flashback) G**
Fire!
**[09:39] (Flashback) G**
*Attention all pirates!*
**[09:41] (Flashback) G**
C-Commander! The slave ships!
**[09:44] (Flashback) G**
*We have taken over your fleet!*
**[09:48] (Flashback) G**
*Hand over the mother ship, too,*
**[09:51] (Flashback) G**
How did they...
**[09:51] (Flashback) G**
*and free all the slaves!*
**[09:54] (Flashback) G**
*You have five minutes.*
**[09:57] (Flashback) G**
*One...*
**[09:58] (Flashback) G**
*Two...*
**[09:59] (Flashback) G**
*Three...*
**[09:59] (Flashback) C**
Y-You bastards!
**[10:00] (Flashback) G**
*Four...*
**[10:01] (Flashback) G**
*Five...*
**[10:03] (Flashback) G**
*Gran?!*
**[10:05] (Flashback) G**
That was too quick! Didn't you
hear me say "five minutes"?!
**[10:07] (Flashback) G**
When you get old, time seems
to fly by so much faster.
**[10:11] (Flashback) G**
No, it really has only been five seconds!
**[10:14] (Flashback) G**
They fired at us!
**[10:16] (Flashback) C**
Curses! Ignore the firing and
turn the tables on the slaves!
**[10:20] (Flashback) G**
C-Commander! They've vanished!
**[10:23] (Flashback) C**
What?
**[10:31] (Flashback) Sak**
Hup.
**[10:46] Gin**
W-Wait.
**[10:47] Gin**
That fighting style,
**[10:49] Gin**
pale skin,
**[10:51] Gin**
and braided hat to ward off the sun...
**[10:53] Gin**
Don't tell me...
**[10:56] Gin**
You're a Yato?!
**[10:59] Gin**
So the heiress of a space pirate fleet
**[11:01] Gin**
is also a member of the universe's
mightiest warrior race?!
**[11:04] Gin**
Where does that leave our heroine?!
**[11:07] Gin**
Damn it, Tatsuma!
**[11:08] Gin**
You couldn't have picked a more
dangerous XO if you'd tried!
**[11:11] Sak**
Yato? What's that all about?
**[11:13] Gin**
You didn't know?!
**[11:19] C**
Fire!
**[11:20] C**
Hold them off!
**[11:24] Sak**
Are they trying to escape?
**[11:26] M**
Not on my watch.
**[11:28] M**
You're not the only ones
who can use projectiles!
**[11:34] G**
Commander! All the guns have been destroyed!
**[11:37] C**
I don't care! Get going!
**[11:44] M**
Don't you understand that
I'm tellin' you to wait?
**[11:46] M**
You forgot your change, sir.
**[11:51] C**
M-Mutsu...
**[11:52] C**
With that much power and talent,
**[11:56] C**
you could've become a notorious pirate.
**[11:59] C**
Why are you still serving that man?
**[12:03] C**
Why do you remain a mere trader?
**[12:06] C**
To repay your debt to him?
**[12:08] C**
To atone for the slaves?
**[12:12] M**
Nonsense.
**[12:14] M**
Even if I wanted to repay my debts,
**[12:16] M**
or atone for my sins,
**[12:19] M**
they're all gone.
**[12:24] M**
That insane trader took all
my debts and sins from me.
**[12:33] M**
I stand before you as someone
who lost everything she had.
**[12:37] M**
As plain old Mutsu.
**[12:39] M**
As Vice Captain of the Kaientai, Mutsu.
**[12:44] C**
Those are the slaves from back then!
**[12:45] C**
Don't tell me your Kaientai is...
**[12:49] M**
Remember this.
**[12:51] M**
I'm not a pebble that moron picked up.
**[12:55] M**
The one who found a pile of gems back then
**[13:03] M**
was me.
**[13:10] M**
What's this?
**[13:12] M**
Here I thought I'd finally get to see your face,
**[13:15] M**
but it's as filthy as ever.
**[13:24] M**
It ain't gonna sell.
**[13:33] G**
Mutsu-sama! I'm so glad you're safe!
**[13:36] G**
I knew you'd be able to pull it off.
**[13:40] G**
You even managed to buy a ship
with those unprofitable bags.
**[13:43] G**
Give it back! Give our ship back!
**[13:45] G**
Your business acumen is truly
beyond measure, Mutsu-sama.
**[13:49] G**
Let's celebrate Mutsu-sama's
safe return with a party!
**[13:52] Sak**
Hey! Doesn't anybody want to celebrate
the captain's safe return?!
**[13:57] Gin**
Well, you didn't return safe and sound.
**[13:59] Gin**
Your mug's gone bon voyage.
**[14:03] Gin**
Still, I'm amazed your Kaientai fleet
**[14:07] Gin**
is made up of the slaves you freed.
**[14:12] Sak**
This is a trade, too.
**[14:14] Sak**
The slaves have nowhere to go, so I
give them a home as members of my crew.
**[14:20] Sak**
In return, it saves me labor costs.
**[14:22] Sak**
It's a win-win.
**[14:24] Gin**
I'll leave it at that,
**[14:27] Gin**
because I'm sure you'd rather drop
dead than say you did it for a girl.
**[14:32] Gin**
You'll have to compensate me for my services.
**[14:35] Gin**
I'm running a business, too.
**[14:37] Sak**
I'll leave it at that,
**[14:39] Sak**
because I'm sure you'd rather drop dead
than say you did it for a girl, too.
**[14:53] (Flashback) M**
You said I was no longer
a pirate, didn't you?
**[14:58] (Flashback) M**
How so?
**[14:59] (Flashback) M**
This is clearly worse than piracy.
**[15:05] (Flashback) Sak**
Don't sweat the small stuff.
**[15:07] (Flashback) Sak**
Pirates and traders do more
or less the same things.
**[15:11] (Flashback) Sak**
We eat, poop, sleep, and puke.
**[15:16] (Flashback) M**
You're the only one who pukes
anywhere and everywhere.
**[15:19] (Flashback) Sak**
Besides, you already know the difference
between pirates and traders.
**[15:35] (Flashback) Sak**
That's right.
**[15:37] (Flashback) Sak**
We Kaientai are pirates who live for pleasure.
***SIGN*** Kai-rates
**[15:41] (Flashback) Sak**
We're Kai-rates!
**[15:47] G**
We're good to go.
**[15:54] Sak**
Kaientai...
**[15:55] M**
...lift off!
***SIGN*** Odd Jobs Gin-chan
**[16:02] Shin**
Gin-san, Gin-san, we've received
a package from Mutsu-san.
**[16:06] Gin**
What? Is it my reward?
**[16:08] Gin**
The Razor XO really knows where it's at!
**[16:13] Kag**
Look, Gin-chan!
**[16:14] Kag**
It's 50 million yen!
**[16:15] Gin**
For real?!
**[16:16] Kag**
Or, well, a bag with room for 50 million,
**[16:19] Kag**
filled with pickled radishes!
**[16:33] M**
That was good business.
**[16:35] M**
* With those words, the woman*
* filled her pockets with pebbles*
**[16:40] M**
*and set sail across the sea of stars.*
***SIGN*** Odd Jobs Gin-chan
**[18:21] Shin**
Wait, what?
**[18:22] Gin**
We ended up with some time left over.
**[18:24] Shin**
Don't say it like that!
**[18:26] Kag**
I was irritated that characters who
usually only show up in the OP and ED
**[18:28] Kag**
got a two-episode arc that ended on a
nice note, so I'm glad this happened.
**[18:33] Kag**
What do you mean, she's actually
a Yato? That's news to me.
**[18:35] Shin**
Well, there have been ups and downs,
**[18:37] Shin**
but Gintama Season Three, which began
with an apology press conference,
**[18:40] Shin**
has now managed to stay on
air for a whole two cours.
**[18:42] Gin**
Seriously, so much has happened.
**[18:44] Gin**
We played basketball and wore the Cloths.
**[18:46] Kag**
We really did our best to
ride on others' coattails.
**[18:49] Shin**
Uh, well...
**[18:52] Shin**
And now,
**[18:53] Shin**
thanks to all of you, it's been decided
that we'll be airing a third cours, too!
**[18:58] Gin**
Oh...
**[18:59] Kag**
'Kay.
**[19:00] Shin**
Hey, what's with the lame reactions?
**[19:02] Gin**
Everyone probably already found out
we're continuing from anime magazines
**[19:04] Gin**
or TV Tokyo's official site.
**[19:06] Kag**
And considering we'll have to
make do with a shoestring budget,
**[19:09] Kag**
it's a double-edged sword.
**[19:10] Shin**
Hey! What's with this mood?!
**[19:12] Shin**
Act more excited, even if
you have to force yourselves!
**[19:14] Gin**
But well,
**[19:15] Gin**
it was really difficult to
make a return this time.
**[19:18] Gin**
I mean, the manga staff used Jump's
cover to tell us, "Don't do it!"
**[19:21] Gin**
And the filthy grown-ups went all,
**[19:23] Gin**
"This will set a bad example, so you
represent all the anime staff and apologize."
**[19:28] Gin**
To top it all off, they said,
**[19:29] Gin**
"Your hair's all crooked. Show some sincerity,"
**[19:32] Gin**
and nearly made me shave my head there.
**[19:35] ---**
I somehow convinced them to
let me off with a 7:3 part!
**[19:37] ---**
Any adult who'd associate with this
anime can't be a decent person.
**[19:41] ---**
Yeah, we did suddenly go
from a Sunrise production
**[19:43] ---**
to being produced by Bandai Namco *ictures.
**[19:45] Shin**
Uh, was that really the company's name?
**[19:46] Kag**
Bandai Namco *ictures is
just Bandai Namco *ictures.
**[19:50] Kag**
Oh, would abbreviating it to BN* be easier to say?
**[19:53] Shin**
I'm saying there's no beep there!
**[19:55] Shin**
I mean, it's just a P!
**[19:57] Gin**
When you're running a company,
**[19:58] Gin**
there are some things you just
gotta hide from the public.
**[20:01] Shin**
What's the point of hiding
the company's name?!
**[20:03] Kag**
That aside, what do we do
about the remaining airtime?
**[20:05] Gin**
Oh, maybe run a recap or something?
**[20:08] Kag**
The higher-ups said to make
it seem a little special,
**[20:10] Kag**
because if we did a normal recap,
**[20:12] Kag**
we'd look like all those other shows
delayed by production issues.
**[20:15] Gin**
Man, that's such a pain in the ass.
**[20:17] Shin**
Uh, in that case,
**[20:19] Shin**
how about the three of us describe all
that's happened so far as we reflect on it?
**[20:23] Gin**
But if it's just the three of us,
won't it all be the same stuff?
**[20:27] Kag**
We could make it seem special
by having three special guests.
**[20:30] Kag**
How about something like this?

What the hell is this?
**[20:55] Gin**
Guests, my foot!
**[20:56] Gin**
They're all me!
**[20:57] Gin**
How are we all coexisting at the same time?!
**[21:00] Ginko**
Oh, shut it.
**[21:01] Ginko**
Because there's demand for us, obviously.
**[21:04] Gin**
Screw that! Your demand is my demand!
**[21:07] Ginko**
Who are you, Gian?
**[21:09] Ginko**
You despicable scum!
**[21:11] Gin**
Um, you're me, you know!
**[21:13] Hij**
I'm not you on the inside.
**[21:15] Hij**
Don't get the wrong idea.
**[21:17] Gin**
And you, get out of my body already!
**[21:19] Ginko**
Hey, President. Whatcha think
of this dude's attitude?
**[21:24] Hij**
I don't remember allying with you, either.
**[21:26] Hij**
Crazy bitch.
**[21:27] Ginko**
Say what?!
**[21:28] Ginko**
Don't get all cocky using
my body, damn Mayopiggy-X!
**[21:31] Hij**
Who are you calling Mayopiggy-X?!
**[21:33] Ginko**
Also, what's with that hairdo?
**[21:35] Ginko**
Trying to act cool?
**[21:36] Ginko**
Even though your real
body has V-shaped bangs?
**[21:37] Ginko**
Is it because of the V-shaped bangs?
**[21:38] Ginko**
Because you want to be freed
of the V-shaped curse?
**[21:40] Hij**
Like hell, dumbass!
**[21:42] Hij**
I can set my hair in my
real body if I try, too!
**[21:44] Hij**
I can get a makeover at any time!
**[21:46] Gin**
Stop it, you two!
**[21:47] Gin**
This is making me feel
really awkward, so stop!
**[21:50] Gin**
I can't do this anymore!
**[21:51] Gin**
Cut, cut! Let's start over!
***SIGN*** Odd Jobs Gin-chan
**[21:54] Kag**
What was that for, Gin-chan?
**[21:56] Kag**
That seemed really special, you know.
**[21:58] Gin**
We don't need special if it's
going to be so out of control!
**[22:00] Gin**
We're not after something
on the level of Christmas
**[22:02] Gin**
and New Year's coming at the same time!
**[22:03] Gin**
Just a little bit is fine!
**[22:05] Gin**
A three-day weekend is fine!
**[22:07] Kag**
A three-day weekend, huh?

**[22:26] Gin**
I said three-day, not Tri-Stars!
**[22:28] Gin**
Though I should've seen it coming!
**[22:29] Gin**
That joke was in SD Gundam already,
as the Black Tri-Defeats or something!
**[22:32] Kag**
By taking a step back,
**[22:34] Kag**
it's actually become
easier to mess with this.
**[22:37] Kag**
I wanna ask them what the story is
behind the move from Sunrise to BN*.
**[22:41] Gin**
Those guys know what happened?!
**[22:44] Kag**
I guess they wouldn't.
**[22:46] Kag**
How about this, then?

And couldn't you talk like
a human being before?!
***SIGN*** Odd Jobs Gin-chan
**[23:11] Kag**
I thought a pet special would be soothing.
**[23:13] Gin**
It's not! It's nothing but unsettling!
**[23:15] Shin**
Uh, I'm sorry,
**[23:16] Shin**
but while we were messing around, we ended
up with less than 30 seconds remaining!
**[23:20] Gin**
Seriously?!
**[23:21] Gin**
Forget about the project now. Let's just
flash back to everything in one go!
