[00:07] Gu     When that man [00:11] Gu     ran over the battlefield,     amidst the bloody winds, [00:13] Gu     he was truly an oni. [00:20] Gu     So you're the boss? [00:22] Gu     Looks like I drew the winning card. [00:25] Gu     We finally meet. [00:29] (Flashback) Gu     Samurai. [00:31] (Flashback) Gu     What is your name? [00:34] (Flashback) Gu     Pakuyasa! SIGN    Gintama SIGN    The Battle on Rakuyo [02:08] (Flashback) Gu     Pakuyasa! [02:10] G     No, that's not me. [02:13] G     That wasn't me. [02:14] B     Don't play dumb. [02:16] B     You can deceive the eyes of others, [02:18] B     but you cannot deceive my enlightened eye, [02:21] B     Pakuyasa. [02:22] G     I'm not Pakuyasa. I'm the White Yasha. SIGN    Please watch this program in a bright room     and at a safe distance from your TV!! [02:26] B     It is indeed possible that     I got the name wrong. [02:29] B     But even if my eyes and ears are closed, [02:31] B     I can perceive everything with this eye. [02:34] B     That flabby double chin of yours,     and your Idaho accent, [02:37] B     definitely belong to Pakuyasa. [02:39] G     No, that's completely wrong. [02:41] G     You're describing a different person.     What is that eye looking at? [02:43] B     And just like it was then, your heart     is filled with thoughts of one person... [02:49] B     Is it your master? [02:52] B     Or your friend, or the     object of your revenge? [02:57] (Flashback) P     I can't lose! [02:59] (Flashback) P     Until I reach him, [03:01] (Flashback) P     I can't lose to anyone else! [03:07] (Flashback) G     You want to be my student? [03:09] (Flashback) G     Sorry, but I've never tried     to recruit new students. [03:12] (Flashback) G     If you really want to be my student, [03:15] (Flashback) G     go buy me some yakisoba bread. [03:18] (Flashback) P     I cannot lose [03:20] (Flashback) P     until I bring him this bread! [03:24] G     Yeah, that's me. [03:27] ---     Huh? [03:28] G     There was once this kid who came to me     and said he wanted to be my student. [03:33] G     But I figured he wouldn't last     a minute on a battlefield, [03:35] G     so I put him in charge of supplies. [03:37] G     He was all about appearances. [03:39] G     Everyone called him Pakuyasa. [03:42] G     I see. [03:43] G     I was wondering why this     wasn't making sense. [03:45] G     So you spent a decade looking for     the yakisoba bread supplier, huh? [03:51] G     He had no prowess with a sword,     so he quickly left the battle SIGN    White Onibito [03:56] G     and opened up a candy store     called White Onibito, [03:59] G     but someone sued him, [04:01] G     so next he opened a place     called White Pantyhose SIGN    White Pantyhose [04:03] G     and was arrested for public indecency. [04:05] G     Now he's doing shady part-time jobs. [04:08] G     I wrote down his address on this. [04:10] G     If you want to go see him, why not— SIGN    Pakuyasa [04:14] G     You're telling me that I,     the Star Sword King, [04:16] G     failed to defeat one of your students     and spent ten years searching for him? [04:21] G     If that's true, [04:23] G     then the man whose life as a     swordsman ended at my hand [04:27] G     is an insect worth even less than that. [04:29] G     I told you, I can see you! SIGN    Pakuyasa [04:32] G     You can't see a thing. [04:34] G     You haven't even seen the     tip of a samurai's topknot. [04:39] G     If you want to know, then use that     eyeball to look deep inside me. [04:43] G     It might be an abyss that you     can never come back from. [04:51] B     I'll do that, [04:53] B     right after I cut your belly open. [04:54] B     Drop the act. [04:56] B     You deflected the blade at the     last moment to avoid a fatal blow. [05:00] B     The next action you'll take is... [05:03] B     Below! [05:05] B     You'll twist your torso to avoid     a deep wound and counterattack. [05:08] B     Then a spin kick to keep the pressure up. [05:09] B     An attack from a blind spot! [05:16] B     What's wrong? [05:17] B     Is this what's deep inside a samurai? [05:20] B     The old you... [05:22] B     No, your student, was much stronger. [05:47] G     This is... a projection     of murderous intent. [05:51] G     He's using my eye's ability, to put pressure     on me with just his murderous intent! [05:55] G     This is the same feeling as before... [05:57] G     Maybe it's bad to have     vision that's too good. [06:00] G     If your eyes take in all that you see, [06:03] G     you'll be so busy looking at     everything, you'll miss out [06:06] G     on what you really want to see. [06:08] B     I see... [06:10] B     What I fought back then     wasn't your student. [06:15] B     It was the murderous intent behind     him that you threw at me! [06:22] B     Back then, [06:23] B     the worldly thoughts of your overzealous     student caused me to lose sight of you. [06:28] B     But this time, that won't happen. [06:30] B     Your target is the life of a swordsman. [06:36] B     And I'm after [06:38] B     the real you! [06:44] B     What does a swordsman think of when     he realizes his own death is upon him? [06:49] B     What does he think of in the     last moments before his death? [06:54] B     The answer... is nothing. [06:58] B     To accept the irrationality of death,     a swordsman simply empties himself. [07:03] B     An emptiness where even true     despair no longer exists. [07:06] B     Thus, when I see this emptiness in a foe, [07:09] B     I realize... [07:13] B     that I have won, and I am alive! [07:18] G     I'll have eggs sunny-side-up     for breakfast tomorrow. [07:21] B     No! [07:22] B     He's still far away from death! [07:29] G     Too bad. [07:30] G     That one wasn't me, either. [07:32] G     I told you, your eye's too good. [07:36] G     Even without a giant eyeball like that, [07:39] G     I can see exactly what's     inside you right now. [07:43] G     Want me to tell you? [07:48] G     You're empty. [08:03] B     You're the second one... [08:05] B     You're the second person whose     mind my eye couldn't see. [08:09] B     One is a man who thinks about     tomorrow's breakfast [08:12] B     as he stands next to the abyss of death. [08:16] B     The other is empty even as he is alive. [08:20] B     What is that thing to you? [08:23] B     Do you intend to fight it? [08:26] G     That's what I want to know. [08:27] G     I wish you could use that     eye of yours to find out. [08:31] B     Even with my eye open, I couldn't     see the outcome of a battle [08:34] B     between two men I don't understand. [08:38] B     You're a man who's lived     with death by his side. [08:42] B     The death of others, your own death, [08:44] B     they've always been close enough     for you to reach out and touch. [08:48] B     And you still live that way. [08:51] B     To you, breakfast and death     aren't that different. [08:55] B     They're just a normal part of your life. [09:00] B     But to that man, there is no life or death. [09:03] B     How would you fight something so empty? [09:07] G     Unfortunately, I don't have a nice eyeball     like you that can see this and that. [09:13] G     It's all I can do to pursue     one thing in front of me. [09:16] G     So whether it's the abyss of death [09:20] G     or an empty void, [09:22] G     I won't fight for the manju     offered to my grave. [09:25] G     I'll fight for tomorrow's breakfast. [09:30] G     That's all. [09:35] B     It's ironic. [09:37] B     Now that my eye is closed,     I can see for the first time. [09:40] B     That's no endless abyss. [09:42] B     He's just endlessly stupid. [09:53] Gu     Shirei-sama! [09:54] Gu     The Hotei's been sunk, right after the Fuso! [09:58] Gu     What are you doing? [09:59] Gu     You're not fighting a fleet! [10:01] Gu     Just one old guy! [10:05] A     What's going on here? [10:07] A     The son, the dad... [10:09] A     They really look like they might     destroy the Harusame on their own. [10:14] A     If this is going to be a legendary battle, [10:17] A     will there be anything for us to do in it? [10:24] A     We can say there were those who     watched the legends' backs! [10:31] Gu     Hurry! [10:32] Gu     Protect the commander's life at any cost! [10:38] Gu     Commander! SIGN    Sakamoto SIGN    Harusame Forces SIGN    Gintoki SIGN    Katsura SIGN    Takasugi's Group SIGN    Matako, Kagura [11:05] Gi     Where is Shinsuke-sama? [11:07] Gi     Where is he?! [11:18] Gi     Shinsuke-sama! [11:33] Gu     Bansai-san! [11:37] B     Not yet... [11:38] B     Don't die yet, Shinsuke. [11:41] (Flashback) T     If you're going to be judged     and die at the nation's hands, [11:44] (Flashback) T     why not die for me instead, Murderer Bansai? [11:49] (Flashback) B     Then what will you die for? [11:53] (Flashback) T     I won't die. [11:55] (Flashback) T     No matter whose corpse I need to step on, [11:58] (Flashback) T     I won't die until I crush this country. [12:04] B     That's what you bragged to me [12:06] B     when you were going to be     executed the next day, right? [12:16] Gu     Bansai-san! [12:19] Gu     Oh, my... [12:20] Gu     It appears the Three Mad Stars     weren't enough to stop you. [12:27] Gu     You can't trust stuff from space. [12:29] Gu     You can only trust stuff made on Earth. [12:35] O     I can't let any of you meet up with     the survivors of the rebel army. [12:42] O     The students of Shoyo will     never meet again in this life. [12:49] B     I'm sorry, Shinsuke. [12:53] B     I promised to use this life for your sake. [12:58] B     I didn't expect I'd waste it here. [13:03] B     Kid, you've got five minutes. [13:06] B     I'll hold them off. [13:08] B     While I do, get out of here. [13:10] Gu     Bansai-san, wait! [13:13] Gu     Sadaharu! [13:15] B     I see... [13:16] B     So you'll listen to the     last request of a samurai? [13:21] B     Then, if you see him,     will you tell him something? [13:26] B     Shinsuke... [13:28] B     This country isn't dead yet. [13:38] B     Even hurt, and crawling on the ground... [13:41] B     We're not giving up,     but still trying to rise. [13:45] B     We're writhing from the pain, [13:49] B     but we're going forward,     and trying to change. [13:55] Gu     I paid my debt. [13:57] B     So Shinsuke, you must rise once more, too. [14:05] B     You promised me, right? [14:08] B     Your enemy is still standing. [14:11] B     Your friend is still fighting! [14:16] B     So you must fight once more. [14:20] B     Become the enemy of this country as it     is reborn and destroy it, if you want. [14:25] B     Or become its friend,     and watch over its fate. [14:34] B     Either is fine. [14:36] B     But do one thing... [14:44] B     When you die, [14:47] B     die next to your friend. [14:52] Gu     Bansai-san! [14:56] Gu     Stop! [15:29] Gu     So he has actually [15:32] Gu     come back here? [15:37] T     The sky looked like it was     about to cry at any minute. [15:41] T     I guess that's where I came down from. [15:46] T     I try to think back on my hazy memories... [15:49] T     Was I the first rain that came     down from a gloomy sky that [15:53] T     could no longer hold it back? [15:56] T     Or was I the last rain that fell down from     a sobbing sky that was trying to stop? [16:04] T     It feels like it was both, [16:06] T     and it feels like it was neither. [16:11] T     The one thing I can say [16:15] T     is that [16:18] T     I'm sick of rain. [16:23] T     Attention, Kiheitei. [16:28] T     Crush the crows! [16:38] Gu     Kill him! [16:40] Gu     Kill that man! [16:49] Gu     Takasugi-san! [17:15] T     Move. [17:16] T     There's someone that... [17:18] T     ...I have to greet before you. [17:21] T     Move!
