***SIGN*** Watch the Silver Soul arc in a bright
room and at a safe distance from the TV!!!!!!!
**[00:06] Shin**
He's alive?
**[00:08] Shin**
What are you talking about, Okita-san?
**[00:11] Shin**
Don't tell me...
**[00:13] Shin**
You mean...
**[00:15] Oki**
Utsuro.
**[00:18] Oki**
Yoshida Shoyo.
**[00:20] Oki**
Nah.
**[00:21] Oki**
He might've taken a completely different
form that's neither of them now,
**[00:28] Oki**
but he's still alive.
***SIGN*** Gintama
***SIGN*** Silver Soul
***SIGN*** Silver Soul Arc
***SIGN*** Salvation
**[02:13] Shin**
When did you know that he wasn't dead yet?
**[02:20] Gin**
I knew all along.
**[02:22] Gin**
Back then, he willingly threw
himself into the ley line.
**[02:29] Gin**
But he was born from Altana anyway.
**[02:33] Gin**
So it'd be no surprise if he came back
reborn from some part of it.
**[02:41] Gin**
To top it off, I heard what he said.
**[02:45] (Flashback) Uts**
Humans.
**[02:48] (Flashback) Uts**
This isn't the end.
**[02:52] (Flashback) Uts**
You have gone and chosen...
**[02:57] (Flashback) Uts**
An endless war,
**[03:00] (Flashback) Uts**
and a life dyed in sorrow and suffering.
**[03:06] (Flashback) Uts**
Nobody can save your teacher anymore.
**[03:12] Gin**
He tried to end the world.
**[03:16] Gin**
We managed to stop that,
**[03:19] Gin**
but we couldn't manage to save our teacher.
**[03:25] Gin**
So I went back to being alone.
**[03:29] Gin**
Not a member of Odd Jobs,
but just a student again.
**[03:33] Gin**
I found something I needed to do
as Shoka Sonjuku's Sakata Gintoki.
**[03:40] (Flashback) Ane**
Investigate all the gates?
**[03:43] (Flashback) Ane**
But why?
**[03:45] (Flashback) Mone**
Gates are spiritual points where energy from
the ley lines gushes out to the surface.
**[03:51] (Flashback) Mone**
They differ in size and are
scattered all across the world.
**[03:55] (Flashback) Mone**
Not even we, the priestesses of the
Golden Dragon, know about all of them.
**[04:03] (Flashback) Mone**
And you want to go around
checking every single one?
**[04:19] (Flashback) Mone**
We've worshiped that gate for generations.
**[04:24] (Flashback) Mone**
As such, we've witnessed strange happenings
in these lands every now and then.
**[04:30] (Flashback) Mone**
But that one stood out among them all.
**[04:35] (Flashback) Mone**
At first, we thought it was an animal corpse.
**[04:39] (Flashback) Mone**
But within a few days,
**[04:41] (Flashback) Mone**
it began taking a different form.
**[04:45] (Flashback) Mone**
But that, um... What do I even call it?
**[04:51] (Flashback) Mone**
I'm not the least bit certain.
**[04:54] (Flashback) Mone**
Is this child human?
**[05:44] Gin**
I couldn't put an end to it.
**[05:54] Gin**
I don't know if he knew how I felt or not.
**[06:00] Gin**
He just grew rapidly in the blink of an eye.
**[06:08] Gin**
Not only did he never talk to me, but he
never even expressed any will or desire.
**[06:13] Gin**
He just quietly followed me,
**[06:19] Gin**
no matter where I went.
**[06:30] (Flashback) Gin**
Sheesh.
**[06:32] (Flashback) Gin**
Can't you at least ask for help?
**[06:36] (Flashback) Gin**
Actually, I guess I'm the one
being unfathomable here.
**[06:40] (Flashback) Gin**
I feel like I'm raising a final boss.
**[06:44] (Flashback) Sho**
You have to grow stronger than
me using your own sword.
**[06:50] (Flashback) Gin**
Is this how you used to feel, Shoyo?
**[07:02] (Flashback) Sho**
No, I don't think so.
**[07:06] (Flashback) Sho**
Compared to how you were as a kid,
**[07:08] (Flashback) Sho**
I was a much cuter, much
better boy, wasn't I?
**[07:17] (Flashback) Gin**
Shoyo?
**[07:20] (Flashback) Gin**
Are you... Shoyo?
**[07:24] (Flashback) Sho**
Shoyo? That sounds so nostalgic.
**[07:28] (Flashback) Sho**
I've been called many, many names
and have lived just as many lives.
**[07:35] (Flashback) Sho**
But of those countless old names,
I remembered just this one.
**[07:40] (Flashback) Sho**
That's who I am.
**[07:42] (Flashback) Sho**
You're the one who made me remember, Gintoki.
**[07:47] (Flashback) Sho**
So I want to tell you while I still can...
**[07:51] (Flashback) Sho**
Entrust you with this while I'm still myself.
**[07:56] (Flashback) Sho**
Gintoki, I...
**[08:15] (Flashback) Sho**
Good grief.
**[08:17] (Flashback) Sho**
It seems we have some unwanted visitors.
**[08:26] (Flashback) Sho**
I'm sorry,
**[08:29] (Flashback) Sho**
but I won't let you have him.
**[08:35] (Flashback) Sho**
This is my heart right now.
**[08:39] (Flashback) Sho**
Utsuro... We must not be left
to roam free in this world.
**[08:48] (Flashback) Sho**
I entrust it to you.
**[08:55] (Flashback) Sho**
I'm sorry I caused you
trouble to the very end.
**[08:59] (Flashback) Sho**
And I'm truly happy to have met you again...
**[09:07] Gin**
Utsuro lost his body in
the battle two years ago.
**[09:13] Gin**
But the massive amount of Altana within him
**[09:16] Gin**
combined with the Altana he fell
into and regenerated his body.
**[09:23] Gin**
So now that I have this, Utsuro
will never come back to life again.
**[09:29] Gin**
Looks like the remnants of the Naraku were
working behind the scenes to bring him back,
**[09:34] Gin**
but he stopped them by gouging out
his own heart and giving it to me.
**[09:40] Gin**
I spent these past two years wandering
everywhere, trying to save him.
**[09:45] Gin**
But in the end, he had to
go and save me yet again.
**[09:51] Tak**
What exactly is the salvation you speak of?
**[09:54] Tak**
Putting an end to Sensei
and Utsuro as he wished?
**[10:00] Tak**
If so, why carry that around like
it's some precious treasure?
**[10:04] Tak**
Maybe it's your resolve that's
wavering and wandering.
**[10:10] Tak**
Then why not just give it back to Utsuro?
**[10:15] Gin**
Takasugi, you...
**[10:17] Tak**
Not a bad idea if it means we
can see Sensei again, right?
**[10:22] Tak**
Though it'll be a gamble on
whether he or Utsuro shows up.
**[10:26] Gin**
What's wrong with you?!
**[10:28] Tak**
Don't get so worked up.
**[10:29] Tak**
I don't intend to take that
gamble. There's no need.
**[10:32] Gin**
Huh? What do you mean?
**[10:34] Tak**
Why bring him back to life?
**[10:40] Tak**
His body's still alive.
**[10:45] Tak**
After you received his heart,
the Naraku took Utsuro's body back.
**[10:51] Tak**
It's in an inanimate state, but that's
probably more convenient for them.
**[10:56] Gin**
Convenient?
**[10:57] Gin**
Weren't they coming for the heart
so they could bring Utsuro back?
**[11:02] Tak**
Nope.
**[11:04] Tak**
I don't know about the Naraku,
**[11:06] Tak**
but the people controlling them...
**[11:08] Gin**
Wait, you mean...
**[11:17] Gin**
Takasugi, you...
**[11:21] Gin**
How'd your body end up like that?
**[11:24] Gin**
What did you see, and where?
**[11:27] Gin**
What did you learn?
**[11:37] Gin**
Takasugi, you...
**[11:40] Gin**
How'd your body end up like that?
**[11:43] Gin**
What did you see, and where?
**[11:45] Gin**
What did you learn?
**[11:55] (Flashback) Tak**
I'm sorry.
**[11:56] (Flashback) Tak**
I don't think I can take your
ashes back to the Shoka Sonjuku.
**[12:03] (Flashback) Tak**
Before I drop dead, there's
something else I need to do.
**[12:11] (Flashback) Tak**
I must destroy them, if nobody else!
**[12:29] (Flashback) Ten**
To think there'd still be someone
who'd point such eyes at us.
**[12:35] (Flashback) Ten**
Right now, we have no power.
**[12:39] (Flashback) Ten**
We can't even die.
**[12:42] (Flashback) Tak**
So what?
**[12:46] (Flashback) Tak**
My left eye knows...
**[12:49] (Flashback) Tak**
What you did,
**[12:52] (Flashback) Tak**
and what it is I must do.
**[12:57] (Flashback) Tak**
If you don't know how to die, I'll teach you.
**[13:02] (Flashback) U**
How cruel is that?
**[13:06] (Flashback) U**
They were no more than pawns.
**[13:09] (Flashback) U**
The one who really cursed you students
and your teacher to this fate
**[13:14] (Flashback) U**
was me, was it not?
**[13:16] (Flashback) U**
If you must kill someone, kill me.
**[13:19] (Flashback) U**
But the seeds I have sown are already
spreading across the country.
**[13:25] (Flashback) U**
You're going to die soon.
**[13:27] (Flashback) U**
Do you really have the time
to weed out all of them?
**[13:32] (Flashback) U**
This is the path you humans chose.
**[13:36] (Flashback) U**
The suffering won't end.
**[13:38] (Flashback) U**
The sorrow won't end.
**[13:41] (Flashback) U**
You have made another terrible mistake.
**[13:54] (Flashback) U**
Your enemy
**[13:59] (Flashback) U**
is yourselves!
**[14:08] (Flashback) G**
All right! Carry them out!
**[14:09] (Flashback) G**
Hurry up! The ship's gonna crash!
**[14:11] (Flashback) G**
Get a move on!
**[14:14] (Flashback) Tak**
Stop it.
**[14:17] (Flashback) Tak**
That power can't be allowed to survive.
**[14:21] (Flashback) Tak**
It's too much for people to handle.
**[14:25] (Flashback) Tak**
Are you trying to start the cycle again?
**[14:29] (Flashback) Tak**
Are you going to make
Sensei suffer even more?
**[14:34] (Flashback) Tak**
Am I going to fail
**[14:38] (Flashback) Tak**
to save him once again?
**[14:42] (Flashback) Tak**
Move...
**[14:45] (Flashback) Tak**
Move!
**[14:47] (Flashback) Tak**
Please, give me just a bit more time!
**[15:01] (Flashback) Tak**
Lend me your strength, senior student,
**[15:07] (Flashback) Tak**
so that we may save our teacher!
**[15:22] Tak**
I had no proof.
**[15:25] Tak**
But I felt no panic or hesitation, either.
**[15:33] Tak**
Our senior, and our teacher's blood,
helped me stand there once more,
**[15:41] Tak**
and I knew the reason all too well.
**[15:50] Tak**
The fact that I stayed alive by taking
in the ashes was practically a miracle.
**[15:56] Tak**
But this body's regenerative
abilities have already weakened,
**[16:01] Tak**
and it's starting to fall apart.
**[16:03] Tak**
I don't have much time left.
**[16:06] Tak**
But thanks to that,
**[16:09] Tak**
I've now become able to
do what I really want to.
***SIGN*** Tokugawa Nobunobu
**[16:22] Shi**
My earthling friends...
**[16:25] Shi**
We must never make the same mistake again.
**[16:30] Shi**
These past two years, I've done
all I can to make sure we don't.
**[16:35] Shi**
But perhaps we had already overlooked
something crucial back then...
**[16:39] Shi**
The seeds of calamity
that are sprouting today.
**[16:43] Kat**
It happened again?
**[16:45] Shi**
Yeah.
**[16:47] Shi**
They've all been major terrorist incidents.
**[16:49] Shi**
And a huge amount of Altana
was stolen in each one.
**[16:53] Shi**
Each was caused by residents of
the planet on which it occurred.
**[16:57] Shi**
People with no links to one another
**[16:59] Shi**
suddenly teamed up one day, committed
terrorism, and killed themselves.
**[17:05] Shi**
But there's one thing we've learned
while investigating their backgrounds.
**[17:10] Kat**
Are you talking about this?
**[17:13] Shi**
Katsura, you...
**[17:15] Kat**
One need only look at history to know.
**[17:18] Kat**
Any time chaos engulfs the world,
people always turn to religion.
**[17:24] Kat**
The idol they worship is the phoenix...
**[17:27] Kat**
In other words, immortality.
**[17:30] Kat**
It's spreading across Edo, too.
**[17:33] Shi**
That war was a major reason the
spread was so wide and so quick.
**[17:38] Shi**
People wanted to get back the
family and friends they had lost.
**[17:42] Shi**
And the religion worshiping
immortality sucked them all in.
**[17:47] Shi**
It was all started by some Liberation Army
members taking immortal blood with them.
**[17:54] Tak**
I spent these past two
years pursuing them.
**[17:58] Tak**
Utsuro's blood had scattered
across the world,
**[18:05] Tak**
and I wanted to destroy it all.
**[18:08] Tak**
But the seeds had already begun sprouting.
**[18:12] Tak**
They've started to understand
how to use the immortal blood.
**[18:17] Shi**
The remnants of the Tendoshu used that power
as bait to rapidly gain massive power.
**[18:24] Shi**
They said, "Believe in us,
and you will gain immortality."
**[18:29] Shi**
And they need one last
key to open that door...
**[18:35] Kat**
The reborn Utsuro, huh?
**[18:38] Tak**
They're trying to find the recipe
for all-encompassing immortality,
**[18:43] Tak**
and that heart you have is
the crux of their research.
**[18:47] Tak**
So you and I were both working toward
the same goal in different places, huh?
**[18:54] Tak**
We worried, hesitated,
**[18:57] Tak**
and in the end,
**[18:59] Tak**
we couldn't change a thing.
**[19:01] Tak**
But isn't that enough?
**[19:05] Tak**
Sensei and you have
suffered more than enough.
**[19:10] Tak**
If you wanna save him, go ahead.
**[19:12] Tak**
You can do that now.
**[19:16] Tak**
Let's just go save what
we couldn't back then.
**[19:22] Tak**
Let's save Sensei from
them and his cursed fate.
**[19:27] Tak**
This time for sure!
**[19:31] Gin**
Where is Shoyo's body now?
**[19:35] Gin**
Where is this boat headed?
**[19:38] Tak**
Edo.
**[19:40] Tak**
Their next target is Edo.
**[19:46] Shi**
What's going on?
**[19:47] Kat**
Run, Shijaku!
**[19:49] Kat**
I didn't expect them to attack me first!
**[19:52] Kat**
Immortality technology will require
massive amounts of Altana,
**[19:55] Kat**
so surely they want Earth's
Altana for themselves.
**[19:58] Shi**
You've figured out that much?
**[20:00] Kat**
Part of the reason I took this crazy position
**[20:04] Kat**
was to control the cabinet, spread a
net to every corner of the country,
**[20:08] Kat**
pick up any movements related to
Utsuro, and to prepare for it all.
**[20:14] Kat**
That was my own way of doing the right thing.
**[20:18] Kat**
Shijaku, take a different route to escape!
**[20:21] Kat**
And if I don't return,
**[20:23] Kat**
take care of Princess Soyo
and the new government!
**[20:25] Shi**
Katsura?!
**[20:27] Shi**
Wait, Katsura!
**[20:30] Kat**
Fret not, Nobunobu.
**[20:32] Kat**
I know that when I die,
the country dies with me.
**[20:36] Kat**
Do you really think I succeeded you
shoguns without being ready for that?
**[20:40] Kat**
Behold from up there in heaven...
**[20:42] Kat**
what this country and its
prime minister are capable of!
**[20:45] Kat**
Let's roll!
**[20:47] Oki**
Katsura!
**[20:48] Shi**
Wait, who are you?!
**[20:50] Shi**
The enemy's not who I expected at all!
**[20:52] Shi**
What's worse, most of them are coming my way!
**[20:55] Shi**
Is this how you do things?!
**[21:08] Kag**
What are you gonna do, Pachi-boy?
**[21:12] Kag**
He said Utsuro's still alive,
**[21:14] Kag**
and that he needs to find
Gin-chan, so he wants our help.
**[21:18] Kag**
It's not like we know
where he is now, either.
**[21:23] Shi**
If Utsuro's alive, Gin-san
must've already made his move.
**[21:29] Shi**
Actually, that's probably why
he left Edo in the first place.
**[21:32] Kag**
To kill him again?
**[21:35] Shin**
I don't know.
**[21:37] Shin**
But maybe Gin-san didn't know, either.
**[21:44] Shin**
*What would I do?*
**[21:46] Shin**
* If someone dear to me from*
* the very bottom of my heart*
**[21:51] Shin**
*became an enemy of the world,*
**[21:55] Shin**
*would I fight them to protect the world?*
**[21:59] Shin**
* Or would I believe in them, even if*
* it turned the whole world against me?*
**[22:04] Shin**
*I don't know.*
**[22:07] Shin**
*But there's one thing I do know I'd want...*
**[22:13] Shin**
*I'd want to see them again.*
