[00:23] (Flashback) Oug     After breaking the code     and abandoning your crew, [00:25] (Flashback) Oug     where are you going to     live out your life now? [00:30] (Flashback) Oug     You're the Dakini's greatest warrior,     the one hailed as the "Divine Horn." [00:36] (Flashback) Oug     Are you really going to leave     the battlefield forever? [00:40] (Flashback) Hed     I'd give away these horns if I could. [00:45] (Flashback) Hed     How many planets do you think     we've turned into wastelands? [00:49] (Flashback) Hed     How many lives blooming on those planets     have we plucked right out of the ground? [00:54] (Flashback) Hed     Just as we Dakini were born to fight, [00:59] (Flashback) Hed     the lives we plucked out must've been trying     to bloom for a purpose of their own. [01:07] (Flashback) Hed     I now want to see how they live, and what     kind of flowers they will make bloom. [01:15] (Flashback) Oug     I hear you were being treated for a     parasite you contracted on Planet Kohaku. [01:22] (Flashback) Oug     They said it was a parasitic plant     that takes root in its host's brain, [01:26] (Flashback) Oug     and that you changed completely     as a person ever since. [01:30] (Flashback) Hed     I didn't change. [01:32] (Flashback) Hed     I bloomed. [01:35] (Flashback) Hed     I grew a flower of my own.

[04:31] Sot     We would gladly lay down our     lives for the greater good. [04:35] Sot     That's the way of the Shinra. [04:43] Jir     I told you... [04:45] Jir     We remember how you people kill. [04:56] Gin     You're not alone? [04:58] Jir     Well, neither are we. [05:03] Jir     I guess fighting as a group     isn't so bad once in a while. [05:07] Gin     I dunno. I was this close to skewering     the annoying ganguro geezer, too. [05:16] Jir     Well, too bad about that. [05:23] G     Sotatsu-sama! [05:25] 73     See that? [05:26] 73     This is the power of the     universe's greatest gangsters, [05:28] 73     the Sewer Rats led by Jirocho! [05:32] 73     And I'm the Sewer Rats' right-hand man, [05:35] 73     the greatest seven-three part in     the universe, Kurogoma Katsu— [05:38] Kag     The universe's greatest gangsters, my ass! [05:40] Kag     Our young'uns were the ones who     took down the enemy's boss! [05:44] Kag     We're the universe's greatest     gangsters, the Odd Jobs Family! [05:47] Shin     When did we become gangsters?! [05:49] Chin     Besides, you ain't the right hand     man of the Sewer Rats, Kacchan. [05:53] Chin     Jirochon said he'd leave the     family's future in my hands. [05:56] 73     What?! [05:57] 73     Why haven't I heard of this?     What's this about, Jirochon?! [06:01] Jir     Who're you calling Jirochon? [06:02] 73     Do you have any idea how much I did to     keep the gang going while you were gone? [06:06] 73     Ever since that time, I've     always thought of you as... [06:11] 73     Yes. Back then, I was as sharp as a knife,     hurting anyone who dared touch me. [06:17] (Flashback) Jir     Whoops. Sorry about that. [06:20] (Flashback) 73     Hey, hold it right there! [06:22] (Flashback) 73     You bump into someone and     that's all you got to say? [06:30] (Flashback) 73     Wh-Who are you? [06:33] (Flashback) Jir     Kid, snapping at everyone around you in     a youthful frenzy is all well and good, [06:38] (Flashback) Jir     but let me say just one thing... [06:42] (Flashback) Jir     Do we really need a flashback for you? [06:45] (Flashback) 73     He rejected my flashback     within the flashback! [06:48] Jir     I think it went something like that. [06:50] 73     Could you not alter my flashback, old man?! [06:53] 73     You can't do this after multiple     flashbacks about your youth! [06:57] 73     Anyway, I fell for you back then     and followed you all this while! [07:01] 73     And you're tellin' me to quit right     after I got the gang back on its feet?! [07:04] Jir     I don't remember ever saying     that in the first place. [07:08] Jir     What kind of father would want     his daughter to be a gangster? [07:11] Chin     What? But you said, "I'm sure you     could handle being the young leader." [07:14] Jir     It was a hypothetical statement. I didn't     tell you to actually take that spot. [07:17] Chin     You did, too. [07:19] Jir     No, I didn't. [07:19] Chin     You did, too! [07:20] Jir     No, I didn't. [07:22] Chin     But you really did say it... [07:25] Jir     Pirako, I can't back down on this. [07:28] Jir     If I let you take such halfway measures, [07:30] Jir     I'd never hear the end of it from     your mother, who left you in my care. [07:34] Jir     If you're gonna do it, take     the throne, Boss Pirarin. [07:37] Jir     Jirochon will be yakuza     association chairman. [07:39] Chin     Hooray! [07:40] 73     That's what you meant by halfway?! [07:42] Jir     Aren't you glad, Katsuo? [07:43] Jir     Now you'll forever be the right-hand     man—halfway to the top. [07:46] 73     I never said I wanted to be the     right-hand man of the Pirarin Family! [07:49] 73     There's a limit to bein' a doting father! [07:51] 73     Young Miss, when will the Jirocho     we know and love return to us? [07:54] Chin     Not Young Miss, Kacchan.     That's "Boss" to you. [07:58] Chin     What will I do with you? [07:59] Chin     I'll let you off with five     chopped fingers this time. [08:01] Chin     It'll be ten each from next time. [08:03] 73     How many fingers do you think I have?! [08:05] Gin     Good grief. I really should've skewered him. [08:09] Gin     If this keeps up, even if we     chase off the Liberation Army, [08:12] Gin     this town still won't ever be peaceful. [08:16] Jir     Do you think this town     will calm down once I die? [08:20] Jir     You'll still be here after I'm gone. [08:23] Jir     And those guys will still     be here after you're gone. [08:28] Jir     Those brash kids who only feel [08:32] Jir     truly alive within the hustle and bustle. [08:38] (Flashback) Jir     Tatsugoro... [08:41] (Flashback) Jir     This ain't your place to die. [08:46] (Flashback) Jir     Let's go back together, Tatsugoro, [08:49] (Flashback) Jir     to our town. [08:53] (Flashback) Tsgr     But if we walk this slowly, she'll     become a gran by the time we get back. [08:59] (Flashback) Tsgr     But I guess that ain't too bad. [09:03] (Flashback) Tsgr     That's the one thing I want     to see most right now. [09:12] (Flashback) Tsgr     Jirocho... [09:14] (Flashback) Tsgr     What kind of town do you     think our home will become? [09:21] (Flashback) Tsgr     What kind of geezers and     grans will you become, [09:25] (Flashback) Tsgr     and what kind of youngsters     will gather there? [09:32] (Flashback) Jir     Knowing us, we'll be stubborn geezers     lecturing youngsters who can't stand us. [09:41] (Flashback) Tsgr     That sounds amazing. [09:44] (Flashback) Tsgr     I want to hurry up and lecture some kids. [09:48] (Flashback) Jir     Yeah, I can't wait, either. [10:32] Oug     The first was that man. [10:35] Oug     And I used my broken horn as     motivation to grow much stronger. [10:41] Oug     So why have I had a horn broken once again? [10:49] Oug     Why are we once again... [11:01] Oug     running in fear from these apes like so? [11:09] Oug     And it isn't just us. [11:14] Oug     The head?! [11:19] Oug     Retreat! [11:22] Tsu     Don't let them escape! [11:25] Oug     What are these people? [11:29] Oug     How are they driving back proud     warrior races one after the other? [11:34] (Flashback) Hed     The lives we plucked out must've been trying     to bloom for a purpose of their own. [11:43] Oug     What were they born for,     and what are they living for? [11:47] Oug     What is the name of the flower     these Earthlings are growing? [11:52] Jir     They're finally falling apart. [11:55] Jir     But unless we do something     about their main force, [11:59] Jir     we'll still be in a desperate situation. [12:02] Jir     If they regroup with the main     force, that's it for us. [12:05] Jir     What we did would amount to nothing more     than sticking a needle into an elephant. [12:09] Gin     Sure, one needle isn't enough     to defeat an elephant. [12:12] Gin     But if it were tipped with poison,     it'd soon spread throughout that huge body [12:17] Gin     and render the elephant immobile. [12:19] Gin     Fear is contagious, you know? SIGN    Kabuki District First [12:23] Gin     If they wanna get out of this town, let them. [12:27] Gin     But... [12:33] Gin     Only after we've laced them     with the poison known as fear! [12:38] Sai     Pako? [12:39] Gin     Our visitors will be leaving, Mama. [12:43] Gin     They had their fair share of fun in our town. [12:47] Gin     Right down to their butt hair, we'll... [12:48] Kag     ...fleece them for everything they've got! [12:55] G     N-No way! [12:57] G     The last mercenary group came back     with their tails between their legs! [12:59] G     It's not just here! [13:01] G     Even at the West Gate... [13:04] G     and the South Gate! [13:07] Jir     I've gotten in on quite the gamble. [13:10] Jir     Opening all the gates to     drive out the enemies inside [13:14] Jir     and using that momentum to make the     main Liberation Army force withdraw? [13:18] Jir     But who knows if we'll be able to make     that huge force sense impending defeat? [13:24] Jir     I'm a gangster, and even I wouldn't     make such a reckless gamble. [13:28] Bim     But maybe the only one capable of doing     something as absurd as saving the world [13:32] Bim     is a huge moron who could doom the     world to destruction with one misstep. [13:40] Gin     Run! [13:42] Gin     Keep running forward until you     can't see any enemies up ahead! [13:45] Gin     Squeeze out every last     ounce of energy you have! [13:48] Gin     Burn everything you have,     and leave nothing behind! [13:50] Gin     Keep running until you're running on empty! [13:56] Oug     Your enemy is that way. [14:00] Oug     If you still want to withdraw,     then I'll take you on. [14:07] Oug     Fight, you small fry! [14:15] Shin     With one roar, he revived     their fighting spirit! [14:19] Shin     Their fear of us was overwritten     by an even greater fear! [14:25] Oug     I am a Dakini. One who was born to     fight, and one who lives to fight. [14:31] Oug     There is nothing I fear. [14:33] Oug     If there were something, I would simply     pluck it out with my own hands. [14:42] Oug     Hey, you. Didn't you hear me? [14:49] Oug     Anyone who flees here has to answer to me. [14:52] Hed     I'm terribly sorry. [14:54] Hed     I heard a war was about to break out,     so I was helping everyone evacuate. [14:58] Hed     That's why I couldn't get here in time. [15:01] Hed     If only I'd planted you elsewhere sooner... [15:06] Hed     I'm so sorry! [15:10] Oug     Th-That flower... It can't be! [15:14] Oug     The parasite, Parappa Heaven! [15:17] Oug     It takes root in its host's head,     gradually takes over his thoughts, [15:21] Oug     and eventually turns their mind into     an empty, blissful bed of flowers... [15:25] Oug     A deadly parasitic plant from Planet Kohaku! [15:29] (Flashback) Hed     I bloomed. [15:32] (Flashback) Hed     I grew a flower of my own. [15:37] Oug     Are you... [15:38] Oug     The Dakini's greatest warrior,     the one who broke my horn... [15:42] Oug     The one hailed as the "Divine Horn"... [15:44] Hed     I have no idea who you are. [15:49] Hed     I'm just a friendly neighborhood florist. [15:53] Hed     I love the flowers, the lives,     that bloom on this planet, [15:56] Hed     and to Odd Jobs, I'm... [16:00] Hed     Neighbor Hedoro! [16:03] Hed     And so, I ask. [16:05] Hed     Who was it that trampled upon     one of this planet's lives? [16:09] Hed     Please be honest and raise your hand! [16:12] Shin     H-Hedoro-san... [16:15] Oug     Get him! [16:17] Oug     All hands, defeat this man! [16:19] Oug     Break the Divine Horn! [16:24] Hed     This won't do. [16:26] Hed     I did ask you to be honest     and raise your hand, [16:29] Hed     but I wasn't expecting     so many of you to do it. [16:33] Hed     I wanted the culprit to apologize to     the flower, but this will take all day. [16:39] Oug     Corrupted by the flower, you've lost your     character and all your fighting skill. [16:44] Oug     You don't need those horns anymore! [16:52] Hed     But... [16:55] Hed     Even if making you all apologize     is out of the question, [16:58] Hed     I think I can manage punishing     each of you with a punch. [17:05] Hed     Now... [17:09] Hed     I'd like to get this over with quick,     so could you all come to me at once? [17:18] Shin     H-Hedoro! [17:21] Shin     He took out that monster in one hit! [17:23] Shin     He threw the Liberation Army     into the deepest depths of fear! [17:26] Shin     The enemy's been consumed by fear     and is retreating all at once! [17:29] Shin     Hedoro-san, you're too scary! You really     are the scariest one of them all! [17:39] Shin     Gin-san! Now's our chance to gang up on them! [17:42] Shin     Even these guys are running away! [17:44] Shin     Why are you all being consumed by fear, too?! [17:46] Gin     Are you stupid? [17:47] Gin     If that monster's flower withers, that'll     mean the advent of a new demon king! [17:50] Gin     This final arc was nothing but the prologue     for Jump's trademark power-creep system! [17:55] Gin     I've had it with this! I'm making     the jump to Shonen Sunday! [17:57] Shin     What are you even talking about?! [18:03] Gedo     No need to worry, Gintoki-sama. [18:06] Gedo     No matter what manner of demons     or evil monsters show up, [18:09] Gedo     Edo has the Ketsuno Clan     of onmyoji on its side. [18:16] Kag     Gedomaru! Ketsuno Ana! [18:18] Shin     Wh-Why are you here? [18:20] Ket     The Ketsuno Clan was entrusted by     the bakufu with the guarding of Edo. [18:25] Ket     Did you think we only take     on demons or spirits? [18:30] Ket     Tell them, Gedomaru-san. [18:32] Ged     I'm late 'cause Satan stubbornly started     the Third Underworld War with Nurarihyon, [18:40] Ged     but I'm now prepared to switch     from occult to sci-fi. [18:43] Shin     Uh, that other thing sounds much more scary! [18:45] Ged     From here on, I won't be a     shikigami of the Ketsuno Clan. [18:50] Ged     I'm ready to fight together     with you all as a human friend. [18:54] Ged     So Gintoki-sama, please wipe that     pathetic look off your face. [18:59] Ged     If you still want to withdraw, [19:06] Ged     then I'll send you to the same hell I     sent Satan to. Is that okay with you? [19:10] Shin     The bad guy just played     that same card earlier! [19:12] Ged     Fight, you small fry! [19:15] Shin     I can't tell which ones     are the shikigami here! [19:19] G     Wh-What the hell is that? [19:20] G     They're coming this way! [19:26] G     Run for it! [19:29] Shin     Wait a damn second! [19:30] Shin     Instead of making the enemy retreat, we're     retreating faster than the enemy here! [19:34] Kag     We overtook the enemy!     We left them in the dust! [19:37] Gin     Hey, this is bad! We're gonna     catch up to the monster up ahead! [19:40] Shin     We're sandwiched between monsters! [19:42] Shin     What kinda sandwich is this?     Which earl came up with this thing?! [19:46] Gin     Crap! There's nowhere left to run! [19:49] Ged     Get going already. [19:59] Sei     An illusion technique? [20:01] Sei     To make an army that large retreat, we     can't fight with only what we have on hand. [20:07] Dou     You must make your empty hand     look like it's full of cards [20:10] Dou     and borrow the strength of the nonexistent. [20:13] Dou     Only con men or we onmyoji     could pull that off. [20:18] Sei     Indeed. [20:20] Sei     Con man, I don't intend to     recognize you as an onmyoji. [20:24] Dou     But I will recognize you as     this country's best con man. [20:28] Dou     Even a con man's ability can come     in handy at a time like this. [20:33] Sei     Doman! [20:34] Dou     Seimei! [20:36] Bo     Throw in everything you've got! [20:48] G     Hold your ground! [20:50] G     If we retreat any farther,     the entire force will collapse! [20:53] G     We have an overwhelming numbers advantage! [20:55] G     Surround the enemy and crush them! [20:58] G     Reinforcements will arrive     soon! Hold out until then! [21:02] G     Is it reinforcements? [21:06] G     N-No way... [21:09] G     There's no way they still have     so many troops remaining... [21:12] G     Hey, look! [21:18] G     They keep showing up from everywhere! [21:20] G     I-In crazy numbers! [21:22] G     Is this it? Are we surrounded?! [21:25] G     Calm down! That can't be! [21:27] G     How are we supposed to calm down? [21:29] G     D-Does that mean we're... we're... [21:34] G     Hey, wait! [21:35] G     I said wait! [21:50] Shin     We did it. [21:52] Shin     The Liberation Army... [21:55] Shin     ...retreated! [21:57] Kag     Gin-chan, we did it! [22:00] Kag     W-With this, a little peace will     return to the Kabuki District.
