[00:05] (Flashback) H
    Here's your ramen!
[00:07] I
    Late on New Year's Eve,
[00:09] I
    that scruffy-looking man ordered not
    New Year's soba, but a bowl of ramen.
[00:16] I
    "I can't eat this much."
[00:19] I
    Saying that, the man took two extra cups,
    divided his ramen into three portions,
[00:23] I
    and shared them with my husband and me.
[00:26] I
    And after devouring his
    portion in an instant,
[00:30] I
    he left, walking down the wintry
    streets with his stomach rumbling.
[00:38] I
    The next year, and the year after that...
SIGN    Hokuto Shinken
[00:41] I
    Every New Year's Eve, that man would visit.
[00:44] I
    He would always use
    what little money he had
[00:48] I
    to order a bowl of ramen
    and share it with us.
[00:53] I
    Each time, my husband would
    divide it into three portions,
[00:56] I
    load one of them up with pork topping,
    and serve it to the man.
[01:01] I
    Meanwhile, he would slurp on
    ramen that was nothing but soup.
[01:05] (Flashback) H
    Ikumatsu.
[01:07] (Flashback) H
    This is our restaurant's
    year-end tradition now.
[01:12] (Flashback) H
    Should anything happen to me,
    make sure you keep it going.
[01:17] I
    That would turn out to be the last
    bowl of ramen my husband ever made.
[01:22] I
    It would also mark the end of the little
    year-end tradition the three of us shared.

[03:07] I
    He didn't come last New Year's Eve, either.
SIGN    Ramen
[03:11] I
    Ever since my husband passed away,
    he hasn't shown up at all.
[03:15] I
    He was a strange one.
[03:17] I
    He clearly had no money to spare,
    but he'd share his ramen with us
[03:21] I
    and then leave, still hungry.
[03:23] I
    He must've been really lonely.
[03:26] I
    Maybe he was coming here
    for company, not ramen.
[03:31] I
    Who knows where he is
    and what he's doing now?
[03:34] I
    Meanwhile, here I am,
    upholding my husband's last wish
[03:36] I
    and waiting for him with a bowl
    loaded up with pork topping.
[03:40] I
    Here's your ramen—
[03:42] Shin
    Don't try to hog the pork!
[03:45] Gin
    Shut it! I'm the one who won big at pachinko!
[03:47] Gin
    You sit there and sip on the soup!
[03:49] Kag
    The egg! Let me just have the egg!
[03:50] I
    Jeez, you three.
[03:52] I
    Why not drink a soup of the dirt in that
    old man's nails while you're at it?
[03:56] I
    I hope he's doing just as
    well as you seem to be.
[04:00] I
    I can't help but be worried.
[04:02] Kat
    Ikumatsu-dono, I would say
    your concern is unnecessary.
[04:06] Kat
    If that poor, lonely man was coming here
    seeking company at the end of the year,
[04:12] Kat
    it's actually a good thing
    that he stopped showing up.
[04:16] Kat
    He must've settled down in life
[04:17] Kat
    and found someone he can eat traditional
    New Year's food with instead of ramen.
[04:21] Kat
    Or maybe the ramen here got
    worse once you took over—
[04:25] I
    Here's your soba!
[04:27] Shin
    Y-You know that's not right, Katsura-san!
[04:29] Shin
    Ikumatsu-san's ramen is the best in Edo!
    No, the best in the universe!
[04:33] Shin
    There's no doubt that man is just
    dying to have it one more time, too!
[04:36] Shin
    Right, Ikumatsu-san?
[04:37] Kag
    He's got some nerve to not show any
    gratitude after all that pork he ate.
[04:40] Kag
    If he's got money now, he should come
    back and share some ramen with us.
[04:44] Shin
    What do you have to do with anything?
[04:46] I
    This is a task my husband left to me
    after worrying about it until the end.
[04:51] I
    Taking over the restaurant was all well
    and good, but this lingers with me.
[04:55] I
    And I haven't returned that scarf, either.
[04:57] I
    But you're right.
[04:59] I
    He must be leading such a happy life that
    he forgot all about this dingy ramen shop.
[05:05] I
    I'll just assume that's what happened.
[05:06] I
    Either way, there's nothing I can do
    but stay here and keep making ramen.
[05:14] Gin
    Hey, Zura.
[05:16] Gin
    Unlike you, I'm a busy man.
[05:19] Kat
    I'm not Zura. I'm Katsura.
[05:20] Gin
    I'm in luck today.
[05:22] Gin
    The dice and the cards
    are all waiting for me.
[05:25] Kat
    What's that saying? A fool with a big
    mouth and his money are soon parted?
[05:29] Kat
    I said what I did earlier out of
    consideration for Ikumatsu-dono.
[05:32] Kat
    But Gintoki, what do you think
    happened to that man, honestly?
[05:37] Gin
    He had no home or family,
    and he was old to boot, right?
[05:41] Gin
    Probably died on the streets, at best.
[05:43] Kat
    Probably.
[05:45] Kat
    But that's only if the
    man was truly homeless.
[05:48] Kat
    This scarf he forgot at the restaurant...
[05:51] Kat
    It's worn out from use,
    but it's a high-quality item.
[05:55] Kat
    It would also have stuck out like a sore
    thumb if a homeless man was wearing it.
[05:59] Kat
    We might be able to find him.
[06:01] Kat
    If he's still alive, that is.
[06:04] Kat
    But if you truly are in luck today,
[06:07] Kat
    I might be able to clear
    my tab at Hokuto Shinken.
[06:10] Gin
    Not happening. Anyway,
    what I want to know is...
[06:13] Gin
    Zura, did you get all the way
    to **** base with Ikumatsu?
[06:19] Kat
    O-Of all the disgusting
    accusations! Have some shame!
[06:22] Gin
    I mean, you're always on
    her side for some reason,
[06:24] Gin
    and I keep running into you every
    time I go there for ramen lately.
[06:28] Gin
    So you haven't sealed the deal yet, huh?
[06:29] Gin
    And here I thought you'd already sucked
    on something else besides ramen.
[06:32] Kat
    Don't be stupid!
[06:34] Kat
    As if Ikumatsu-dono and I would
    ever have , get **** and ,
[06:37] Kat

    or worse, **** like *******!
[06:40] Gin

    Uh, I never said anything that vulgar.
[06:43] Gin
    Yeah, you have always been the passive sort.
[06:47] Gin
    So you wanna pound the pavement here and
    then pound Ikumatsu while you're at it, huh?
[06:52] Gin
    If that's how it was,
    you shoulda said so sooner.
[06:54] Gin
    I can give you a discount
    on the cupid service.
[06:57] Kat
    I didn't ask for that!
[06:58] Gin
    Don't play dumb! I know
    your tastes inside and out!
[07:01] Gin
    You've always been into married women.
[07:01] Shin
    That's one weakness I didn't expect.
[07:03] Gin
    Come to think of it, your first love
    as a kid was a neighborhood widow—
[07:07] Kat
    You dare insult a samurai?! Keep it up
    and I won't hesitate to cut even you down!
[07:11] Kat
    I'm not into married women!
[07:14] Kat
    I'm into cuckoldry!
[07:16] Shin
    You just exposed a fetish that's
    totally unbefitting a samurai!
[07:18] Kat
    And it's not Ikumatsu-dono
    that I'm in love with!
[07:21] Kat
    It's the taste of her soba!
[07:23] Kat
    She inherited that from her husband,
[07:25] Kat
    and I just want to make that
    man eat it one more time.
[07:28] Kat
    Eat that bowl of ramen she
    promised her husband to serve.
[07:31] Gin
    How admirable.
[07:33] Gin
    You wanna pound the pavement to help her
    fulfill her promise with your love rival?
[07:38] Kat
    Unfortunately, we're not rivals in love.
[07:41] Kat
    It's not something I will ever be.
[07:44] Kat
    Because Ikumatsu-dono only
    has eyes for one man.
[07:51] Bum
    Hey, what's all that about?
[07:53] Bum
    That's one young newcomer.
[07:56] Kat
    Pleased to meet you.
[07:58] Kat
    I grew sick of being a samurai,
    quit sticking swords in people,
[08:02] Kat
    and chose to stick myself in a cardboard box.
[08:04] Kat
    My name is Katsura Kuzutaro.
[08:06] Kat
    I hope to get along with all of you.
    You may casually call me Kuzura.
[08:10] Bum
    For someone who grew sick of his life,
    you're awfully lively, Kuzura-san.
[08:14] Kat
    I'm not Kuzura! I'm Katsura!
[08:16] Kat
    And this here is my partner, Kuzuta—
[08:20] Gin
    Hey, how did things end up this way?
[08:22] Bum
    The other guy's got the same
    look in his eyes as us.
[08:25] Bum
    Welcome, Kuzuta-san.
[08:27] Bum
    Hey, nice to meetcha.
[08:27] Gin
    As if! Don't lump me in with you lot!
[08:29] Kat
    The best people to ask about a
    homeless man are the homeless.
[08:33] Kat
    I came up with this cover to
    make them less wary of us...
[08:36] Kat
    But I'm amazed you blended in
    instantly. That's my Kuzuta.
[08:40] Gin
    That doesn't make me happy!
[08:42] Gin
    I really should've gone looking for the
    scarf store with Shinpachi and Kagura.
[08:46] Kat
    Sorry, but who among you
    knows a lot about this stuff?
[08:49] Kat
    I have a lot of questions
    regarding the cardboard life.
[08:52] Bum
    Oh, then you should go meet the Lawd.
    You can introduce yourself, too.
[08:56] Kat
    The Lord?
[08:57] Bum
    Yeah. The chief of cardboard boxes
    and leader of all the homeless here.
SIGN    Lawd
[09:02] Bum
    We call him Lawd, for
    Leader At the Waste Dump.
[09:04] Bum
    The Lawd knows all, and he can
    solve most problems you might face.
[09:08] Musashi
    What's going on? It's awfully noisy.
[09:11] Bum
    It's the Lawd! The Lawd has
    graced us with his presence!
[09:19] Gin
    Hey, what are you doing, Hasega—
[09:23] Mu
    Men, throw these two out of Eden at once.
[09:27] Gin
    Uh, what are you talking about?
    What the hell is "Eden"?
[09:30] Gin
    Hey, stop talking through an interpreter.
[09:32] Gin
    You're totally made in Japan.
[09:35] Mu
    These two bring disaster wherever they go.
[09:38] Gin
    Uh, I don't wanna hear that
    from a walking disaster.
[09:42] Gin
    I'm willing to ask as many times as it takes.
[09:43] Gin
    What are you doing? Why are you
    here at your age, Hasega—
[09:47] Mu
    Quit chanting the Hasegawa death spell!
[09:50] Gin
    It's your damn name! And use
    your own mouth to speak!
[09:52] Gin
    You're pissing me off!
[09:54] Mu
    The lower realm's mores don't apply here.
[09:57] Mu
    This is Eden.
[09:58] Mu
    A different world where those who have
    been liberated from everything gather.
[10:02] Gin
    That so?
[10:03] Gin
    I don't care if you're Hasegawa-san
    or the Lawd anymore.
[10:05] Gin
    Just trash either way.
[10:06] Mu
    Who're you calling trash?!
[10:07] Gin
    Say, did you ever see anyone
    wearing this scarf—
[10:10] Mu
    Can't answer that.
[10:12] Mu
    Everyone here is truly free.
[10:15] Mu
    Nobody is allowed to pry into
    or bring up their past lives!
[10:18] Mu
    And we have no information
    to share with outsiders.
[10:22] Mu
    If you wish to become one of us so badly,
[10:25] Mu
    offer me 30 bags of empty cans and
[10:28] Mu
    60 discarded convenience
    store lunch boxes as tribute.
[10:31] Mad
    Got that, uh... Kuzuta-san, was it?
[10:34] Mad
    Only the people who were at rock bottom in
    the lower world can make it to the top here.
[10:40] Gin
    If you're gonna laugh, do it yourself!
[10:44] Bum
    Lawd!
[10:48] West
    Pick up empty cans?
[10:50] West
    Save yer sleeptalkin' for when yer asleep.
[10:52] West
    I thought we made it clear this was our yard.
[10:56] West
    All the empty cans and discarded
    convenience store lunch boxes are ours!
[10:59] West
    You louts hurry up and get
    outta this park already!
[11:01] Gin
    Who the heck are those guys?
[11:02] Bum
    The Westside Gang!
[11:03] Bum
    The armed cardboard gang who control
    the west side of this park!
[11:07] Gin
    What the hell is an armed cardboard gang?
[11:09] Bum
    They're upstarts that use violent oppression
    to expand their rule on cardboard!
[11:14] Gin
    Wait, what? Did we enter the Warring
    Cardboard Era while I wasn't paying attention?
[11:20] Mu
    Get outta here!
[11:22] Mu
    This is a free utopia!
[11:24] Mu
    We won't hand it over, no
    matter how many times you try.
[11:26] Gin
    You're stepping on the Lawd!
    He was trying to say something!
[11:28] Mu
    We won't give in to violence!
[11:30] Mu
    We only fall to our knees
    in our cardboard boxes!
[11:33] Gin
    But the Lawd's totally giving
    in to violence beneath you!
[11:35] Gin
    And this interpreter's just
    running his mouth now, isn't he?
[11:38] Bum
    Interpreter? What are you saying, Kuzuta-san?
[11:41] Bum
    This is the Lawd.
[11:43] Gin
    What?! He was the Lawd all along?!
[11:46] Gin
    Then what was with the old man next
    to him who was dressed all godlike?
[11:49] Bum
    That's the guy always mumbling
    something by the Lawd's side.
[11:52] Gin
    In the end, you've hit rock
    bottom in this world, too!
[11:56] Bro
    Now there's a face that takes me back.
[11:58] Bro
    I found an unexpected diamond
    buried in the trash.
[12:03] Bro
    I see.
[12:04] Bro
    So you came here, too...
[12:07] Bro
    Katsura!
[12:08] Kat
    Y-You're...
[12:14] Gin
    Who are you, again?
[12:15] Bro
    Don't interpret for the
    people watching at home!
[12:17] Bro
    Don't tell me you forgot...
[12:20] Bro
    How you got me thrown in jail for that woman
[12:23] Bro
    and reduced me to being homeless!
[12:29] Gin
    I see.
[12:30] Gin
    After crossing swords with
    you at the Land of Korin,
[12:32] Gin
    I never expected you to return as a cyborg.
[12:35] Bro
    That's Mercenary Tao!
[12:37] Bro
    Just look at the quality
    difference in our comebacks!
[12:39] Kat
    I remember now! You're Ikumatsu-dono's
    brother from back then...
[12:43] Kat
    Fancy running into you here.
[12:46] Bro
    I'd rather you didn't sum it up so easily.
[12:49] Bro
    I mean, ever since then, I've lived my
    life thinking of nothing but you guys.
[12:54] Bro
    You two ruined my life,
[12:55] Bro
    so I was chomping at the bit for a
    chance to get my revenge on you two!
[13:00] Kat
    Oh? By becoming king of
    this cardboard mountain?
[13:04] Kat
    Talk about a roundabout revenge.
[13:06] Bro
    Look, I know that you're
    here to look for that man.
[13:12] Kat
    What are you talking about?
[13:14] Bro
    Don't play dumb.
[13:16] Bro
    I know all about it.
[13:18] Bro
    How my brother desperately looked for
    him here while he was still alive.
[13:23] Kat
    Ikumatsu-dono's husband did what?!
[13:25] Bro
    How that man visited that
    filthy ramen place every year,
[13:30] Bro
    and just who he is, too.
[13:37] W
    Um, if I may ask, where did you get this?
[13:42] Shin
    Oh, we're looking for its owner, too.
[13:46] W
    This crest on the lining
    certainly is Nishikiya's.
[13:50] Kag
    Really? Does it ring any bells?
[13:53] Kag
    Did some filthy old man come here to buy it?
[13:56] W
    This isn't one of our products.
    It belonged to the master of Nishikiya.
[14:00] Kag
    Master? Like the boss of this place?
[14:04] W
    Yes. I remember him wearing it
    with style whenever he went out.
[14:10] Shin
    Where is he? Where is he now?
[14:13] W
    He passed away around 20 years ago.
[14:18] W
    Why would this thing show
    up after all this time?
[14:20] Shin
    Um, was it given away to
    someone after he died?
[14:24] Shin
    Are there any family members who might know?
[14:27] W
    Just the young miss.
[14:29] W
    But she was very young when her father died.
[14:34] W
    She probably doesn't remember anything.
[14:36] W
    Nishikiya is a textile store that the
    master and mistress built themselves.
[14:42] W
    Right when they'd overcome hard times
    and put up shop, the master passed away.
[14:47] W
    After that, the mistress made the
    store grow this big all by herself.
[14:51] W
    But she died six years ago, too.
[14:54] W
    On top of that, the young
    miss lost her husband.
[14:59] W
    So even if she doesn't
    remember anything anymore,
[15:01] W
    I'm sure the young miss will
    be delighted if she sees this.
[15:07] I
    I wonder about that.
[15:09] I
    After having the scarf
    taken without permission
[15:11] I
    and people sniffing around
    without her knowing,
[15:14] I
    even the gentle young miss might get angry.
[15:17] I
    Just kidding.
[15:18] I
    Delivery for you, Osono-san.
[15:21] Bro
    Katsura, I came here to kill that man.
[15:27] Bro
    "That man" being Ikumatsu's dad,
    who is said to have died 20 years ago.
[15:43] I
    Oh, you're trying to find that
    homeless man using this scarf?
[15:48] I
    Jeez, you could've just told me.
[15:51] I
    Sorry you went through all
    this trouble for my sake.
[15:56] I
    Yes.
[15:57] I
    The scarf belonged to Nishiki Matsugoro,
    Nishikiya's founder, who died 20 years ago.
[16:03] I
    And I'm Matsugoro's daughter,
    Nishiki Ikumatsu.
[16:08] Shin
    Y-You're Nishikiya's heiress?
[16:13] I
    Sorry I didn't mention it.
    It's just not me, you know?
[16:17] I
    Running a ramen restaurant
    suits me much better, right?
[16:20] I
    Of course it does.
[16:21] I
    Nishikiya may be one of the
    top textile showrooms now,
[16:25] I
    but until it was started,
    we lived in abject poverty.
[16:29] I
    But while life was hard, we had fun.
[16:32] I
    Even if we had nothing to eat, the three
    of us supported one another as we lived.
[16:37] I
    But it all came crashing down the moment
    we became able to live a decent life.
[16:42] I
    Ironic, right?
[16:43] Shin
    If I may ask, how did your father pass away?
[16:47] I
    I was really young back
    then, so I have no idea.
[16:51] I
    Besides, he was living elsewhere
    with his mistress back then.
[16:57] I
    As soon as our store got on track,
[17:00] I
    he apparently made a move on
    one of the girls working here.
[17:03] I
    Mom found out and threw him out.
[17:06] I
    Not long after that, we heard
    that he'd died of illness.
[17:11] I
    People were saying he deserved it for
    abandoning his wife and daughter,
[17:16] I
    but I still remember how
    sad my mother looked then.
[17:22] I
    I don't know how the scarf found
    its way to that homeless man,
[17:26] I
    but I'm guessing it means my dad
    was living a similar life to him.
[17:32] I
    Thinking about it that way, I just
    can't think of him as any old man.
[17:36] I
    Sorry I made you waste your time for me.
[17:39] I
    Ultimately, maybe people are best off when
    they have to fight to live another day.
[17:46] I
    The moment we have more than we
    need, our eyes start to wander.
[17:51] I
    I feel like we could clearly see what
    was important when we were poor.
[17:57] I
    If it weren't for that, I'm sure his
    eyes wouldn't have strayed from us.
[18:04] I
    And we would've been able
    to forgive him, too.
[18:10] Kat
    Ikumatsu-dono's father is alive?!
[18:13] Bro
    That's right. He was barely
    scraping by in this dump.
[18:18] Kat
    No way. You mean the homeless man who
    kept visiting the restaurant was...
[18:24] Bro
    Wait, you really didn't know?
[18:27] Bro
    And Ikumatsu didn't realize
    that he was her father?
[18:33] Bro
    That's funny.
[18:35] Bro
    She forgot what her own dad looked like?
[18:40] Bro
    Of course you'd forget about a scumbag
    who left his family for another woman.
[18:46] Bro
    Isn't that right?
[18:47] Bro
    How long are you gonna stay
    silent? I know you're here.
[18:52] Bro
    Whatever.
[18:53] Bro
    I'm sure the kindhearted Katsura-san
    can't sit tight after learning all this.
[18:57] Bro
    Katsura, you bring Ikumatsu's old man to me.
[19:00] Kat
    What?
[19:01] Bro
    Don't get any funny ideas.
[19:05] Bro
    I control pretty much all
    the homeless in this town.
[19:08] Bro
    I think some starving homeless even camp
    out at the dump near the Hokuto Shinken.
[19:13] Kat
    You knave!
[19:15] Bro
    This is my revenge.
[19:17] Bro
    Bring me the head of the
    father of the woman you love.
[19:26] Bum
    Lawd, what should we do?
[19:29] Bum
    The Lawd was right.
[19:31] Bum
    Those guys really brought about a disaster.
[19:34] Bum
    We should've thrown them out right away.
[19:36] Bum
    Who's Ikumatsu's old man, anyway? I've
    never even heard of someone like that.
[19:40] Mu
    No need to worry.
[19:42] Mu
    We already found Ikumatsu's father.
[19:47] Mu
    Hurry up and take this man
    in shades to that punk.
[19:51] Mad
    What're you pulling the Lawd's strings for?!
[19:54] Mad
    Who're you calling Ikumatsu's old man?!
[19:56] Kat
    You must endure this, Hasegawa-dono.
[19:58] Kat
    Ikumatsu-dono has practically
    been taken hostage.
[20:01] Kat
    We can't do anything unless we shut
    up that knock-off Mercenary Tao.
[20:04] Mad
    Before that, do something about
    this knock-off Commander Ikari!
[20:08] Mu
    Listen up. Use Shades as a
    decoy to distract the enemy.
[20:13] Mu
    In the meantime, I'll guide these men
    outside the park via this secret passage.
[20:18] Mad
    Why's the Lawd getting into it, too?
[20:21] Kat
    Lawd...
[20:23] Mu
    Instead of looking for her father,
[20:27] Mu
    you must first ensure the daughter's safety.
[20:31] Mu
    Don't lose sight of your cause.
[20:33] Mu
    And my cause is... No matter whose
    father or how big a scumbag they are,
[20:38] Mu
    I will protect everyone here!
[20:40] Mad
    But you're not protecting me at all!
[20:43] Mu
    We should work together.
[20:44] Bum
    What are you talking about, Lawd?
[20:46] Bum
    You're half-senile, fool.
    Can you really show them the way?
[20:49] Mu
    Who're you calling a fool?!
[20:51] Mu
    I plunged into the straight man
    routine the moment I was born!
[20:53] Mu
    This way! Follow me!
[20:55] Bum
    Where are you taking a plunge now?!
[20:58] Bum
    Hey, we'll handle things here,
    so take care of the Lawd.
[21:03] Mad
    In the end, I get to lead
    this band of idiots?
[21:06] Mad
    I'm done with this crap. I'm gonna
    leave this place and find a proper job.
[21:09] Kat
    I still can't believe that homeless
    man was Ikumatsu-dono's father.
[21:14] Kat
    He was going to see her
    unbeknownst to all, huh?
[21:17] Kat
    And he hid who he was due to the
    guilt over abandoning his family?
[21:21] Kat
    In that case, why did he
    suddenly stop showing up?
[21:25] Kat
    Because he'd seen that his daughter
    was blessed with happiness?
[21:28] Gin
    She lost her husband, and now a weird
    guy with long hair is stalking her.
[21:32] Gin
    Nobody would consider her blessed.
[21:33] Kat
    I never stalked her!
[21:35] Gin
    Keep it down. What if they hear you?
[21:37] Gin
    You're not used to straight man
    work. Don't push yourself.
[21:39] Mu
    Yeah! Let me plunge into the
    straight man routine instead!
[21:41] Mad
    Seriously, where do you think
    you're taking a plunge?!
[21:44] Mad
    The Lawd's getting swept away!
[21:45] Gin
    You've got it wrong, Hasegawa-san.
[21:47] Gin
    This straight man really wants to
    plunge into Ikumatsu's pus—
[21:50] Mad
    Hey, knock it off!
[21:51] Mad
    I can't handle these three stooges!
[21:54] Gin
    H-Help!
[21:55] Gin
    I... I can't swim!
[21:55] Kat
    Screw you!
[21:57] Kat
    When did I say I wanted to plunge into
    Ikumatsu-dono's , , or *******?
[21:59] Mad

    Look, we don't have time for that!
    Help me rescue him!
[22:03] Mu

    I'll take the plunge instead!
[22:05] Mad**
    Why?!
[22:06] Mad
    I can't deal with this!
