[01:45] Kondo
    I see, I see. That's wonderful.
[01:49] Kondo
    The entire Shinsengumi will attend the ceremony.
[01:54] Mitsuba
    To tell you the truth, I had given up on marriage.
[01:58] Mitsuba
    My health isn't good, I'm an old lady, and no one would marry me. I should be grateful.
[02:03] Kondo
    No, no, you haven't changed at all, Mitsuba-dono.
[02:08] Kondo
    Pretty, polite and bright. Sogo often talked about you.
[02:12] ---
    He's very proud of his sister.
[02:14] Mitsuba
    Oh dear! Kondo-san, flattery will get you nowhere, you know.
[02:20] Member A
    Hey, who is that? That babe. What're they talking about?
[02:23] Member A
    Why're they laughing?
[02:24] Member B
    Didn't they just say something about marriage?
[02:27] Member C
    What?! He already has Otae-san-the son-of-a-bitch!
[02:30] Harada
    Shh! Keep quiet, stupid!
[02:32] Yamazaki
    You guys don't know? That's...
[02:35] Yamazaki
    Okita-san's sister, Mitsuba-san!
[02:37] Members
    What?
[02:38] Harada
    The one who sends those Super Spicy Rice Crackers every month?
[02:41] Harada
    They're too hot to eat.
[02:43] Harada
    But they're so different.
[02:45] Harada
    It's hard to believe such a polite and quiet person could be Captain Okita-san's...
[02:48] Yamazaki
    That's why they say: if one sibling is irresponsible, the other is very responsible.
[02:55] Yamazaki
    The world balances out that way.
[03:03] Mitsuba
    My, things are always so lively around here.
[03:06] Kondo
    Oh! Sogo...you finally made it.
[03:08] Okita
    I'm sorry. I'll join you after I take care of him.
[03:13] Mitsuba
    So-chan, you mustn't. You mustn't be rough with your friends.
[03:19] Okita
    I'm so sorry, Sister!
[03:21] Yamazaki
    What?!
[03:24] Kondo
    You can't compete with your sister, as usual, eh, Sogo?
[03:28] Okita
    It's been so long, Sister. You must be tired after journeying all the way to Edo.
[03:35] Yamazaki
    Who is that?!
[03:37] Kondo
    Well, spend some time alone together. You don't need us.
[03:41] ---
    Sogo, take the day off.
[03:44] Kondo
    She came all this way. Show Mitsuba-dono around Edo.
[03:50] Okita
    Thank you very much!
[03:52] Okita
    Shall we go, Sister?
[03:54] Yamazaki
    What was that, Chief?
[03:57] Kondo
    He lost his parents when he was very young.
[04:01] Kondo
    Since then, Mitsuba-dono has been like a mother to him.
[04:07] Kondo
    Let him be today. A man needs a place where he can let down his guard.
[04:14] Kondo
    Especially a guy like him...
[04:15] Kondo
    who never shows weakness and has lived obstinately all his life.
[04:20] Yamazaki
    Understood. I'll say I never saw today's Okita-san.
SIGN    [Battle Royal Host] [Note: Spoof of the Battle Royale novel and film and the family style restaurant, Royal Host.]
[04:27] Okita
    So this trip to Edo is also to meet your fiancée's family?
[04:31] Mitsuba
    Yes. I'll be staying in Edo for a while, so we can see each other anytime.
[04:35] Okita
    Really? That makes me so happy!
[04:38] Mitsuba
    Me, too.
[04:40] Okita
    If you wed and live in Edo, we can see each other anytime we want.
[04:44] Mitsuba
    That's right.
[04:45] Okita
    I'm...so happy.
[04:47] Mitsuba
    Me, too.
[04:48] Harada
    M-Me, too!
[04:51] Okita
    But I'm worried. Edo's air is filthy compared to Bushu.
SIGN    [Note: Bushu was a part of the Musashi province. Which today consists of Tokyo, Saitama and Kanagawa prefecture.]
[04:57] Okita
    I'm worried about your health.
[04:59] Okita
    Look at all those exhaust fumes.
[05:01] Mitsuba
    What?
[05:04] Mitsuba
    What? Where, So-chan?
[05:07] Mitsuba
    My...what is that smell?
[05:10] Okita
    Isn't the air awful? I hope it doesn't affect your lungs, Sister.
[05:14] Mitsuba
    Don't worry about my illness.
[05:15] Mitsuba
    Thanks to the money you send every month, I'm getting full treatment.
[05:19] Mitsuba
    More importantly, are you okay, So-chan?
[05:22] Mitsuba
    Are you eating three meals a day?
[05:24] Okita
    I am.
[05:25] Mitsuba
    Are you getting enough sleep, even when you're busy?
[05:27] Okita
    I am. I don't even have time to count sheep.
[05:31] Mitsuba
    Are you getting along with everyone? You're not being bullied, are you?
[05:35] Okita
    Well, at times, some of the guys are nasty, but I don't give in.
[05:40] Mitsuba
    How about friends?
[05:41] Mitsuba
    Do you have a close friend you can confide your problems in?
[05:48] Okita
    My good friend, Gintoki Sakata-
[05:50] Gintoki
    What's up?
[05:52] Gintoki
    Hey, since when did you and I become friends?
[05:55] Okita
    Master, you don't become friends because you decide to, it just happens.
[06:02] Gintoki
    And friends just happen to leave, too.
[06:05] Okita
    Excuse me. Three chocolate parfaits, please!
[06:10] Gintoki
    We're friends, or rather, he's like a younger brother to me.
[06:14] Gintoki
    That's how it seems. Right, Soichiro-kun?
[06:17] Okita
    It's Sogo.
[06:18] Gintoki
    I like how he pays attention to details. Right, Soichiro Yagami-kun?
SIGN    [Note: Name of Light's father from DEATH NOTE.]
[06:23] Okita
    It's Sogo.
[06:24] Mitsuba
    My, so my younger brother made friends with an older person again.
[06:28] ---
    You've always surrounded yourself with older people.
[06:31] Okita
    That's okay. I'm still an eighth-grader in summertime at heart.
[06:35] Gintoki
    Eighth grade?
[06:35] Gintoki
    Of all things... Were you the most stupid eighth-grader in the world, Takeshi Kaga-kun?
SIGN    [Note: Takeshi Kaga is the Iron Chef Japan host.]
[06:40] Okita
    It's Sogo.
[06:43] Okita
    Master, please. Sister has lung disease.
[06:47] Okita
    She can't handle stress.
[06:49] Okita
    I don't want to needlessly worry her. Please do a better job of playing my friend.
[06:54] Gintoki
    Huh? Just a minute, Sister, what're you doing? Hello?
[06:59] Gintoki
    Sister! That's Tabasco!
[07:03] Mitsuba
    As a show of my appreciation for you taking care of So-chan,
[07:06] Mitsuba
    I thought I'd show you an especially delicious way to enjoy this.
[07:11] ---
    Do you like spicy foods?
[07:13] Gintoki
    Well, this is...not something that's supposed to be spicy.
[07:20] Mitsuba
    So you...
[07:21] ---
    don't like it...even though you're So-chan's friend.
[07:24] Gintoki
    Being friends has nothing to do with it.
[07:26] Okita
    You like it, right, Master?
[07:29] Gintoki (M)
    What is this? I've never met anyone like this. If I'm not careful...
[07:30] Gintoki
    I might like it, now that I think about it.
[07:32] Mitsuba
    Spicy foods are good for you.
[07:34] Mitsuba
    They enhance your appetite.
[07:35] Mitsuba
    Spicy foods have helped me many times when I was ill and had no appetite.
[07:39] Gintoki
    But I've already had two parfaits, so my stomach's full...
[07:43] Gintoki
    you know.
[07:48] Okita
    Master!
[07:49] Gintoki
    Get me some water!
[07:52] Gintoki (M)
    She wants me to eat this without water?!
[07:56] Okita
    Sister!
[08:05] Okita
    Sister! Sister! Please say something!
[08:09] Mitsuba
    I'm fine. I just spit out the Tabasco I just ate.
[08:12] Gintoki
    Nausicaa!!
SIGN    [Note: The voice actress for Mitsuba also voiced Nausicaa from Nausicaa The Valley of the Wind.]
[08:19] Hijikata
    What the hell is this?! Water... Water...
[08:22] Yamazaki
    It's a gift. "Super Spicy Rice Crackers" from Okita-san's sister.
[08:26] Hijikata
    Yamazaki, are you mocking me? What's with that afro?
[08:29] Yamazaki
    Don't get angry with me. Be angry at Mitsuba-dono.
[08:35] Yamazaki
    Vice-Chief, why didn't you go see her?
[08:38] Yamazaki
    Chief told me about it.
[08:40] Yamazaki
    You, Chief and Mitsuba-dono were friends back when you were in the Bushu countryside,
[08:44] Yamazaki
    before the Shinsengumi was formed.
[08:47] Yamazaki
    You should've let me take care of the trivial job
[08:49] Yamazaki
    of checking out suspicious vessels and gone to see Mitsuba-dono.
[08:56] Hijikata
    The kind of weapons the Anti-Foreigner Faction has these days
[09:00] Hijikata
    are different from those of the past.
[09:03] Hijikata
    In these times of the Sword ban, it's not easy for civilians to acquire goods like that.
[09:08] Hijikata
    I'm positive someone in the Bakufu government is diverting the goods through illegal channels
[09:10] Hijikata
    and selling them on the black market.
[09:13] Yamazaki
    Vice-Chief. Did something happen between you and Mitsuba-dono?
[09:16] Hijikata
    Yes, there's something there. I just know it.
[09:19] Yamazaki
    I knew it. There's still fire in the embers.
[09:22] Hijikata
    Yes. If there's a fire, it'll be big trouble.
[09:26] ---
    Seriously? Huh? No, it's nothing like that! Dammit!
[09:29] ---
    What're you talking about? I'll kill you. Why're you wearing an afro?
[09:33] ---
    I'll kill you. For Pete's sake.
[09:35] Yamazaki
    It looks like Mitsuba-dono is going to get married.
[09:37] Hijikata
    It's none of my businesses, I keep telling you! That afro!
[09:40] ---
    Hey! Why're you wearing an afro? I really will kill you!
[09:42] Yamazaki
    Her fiancé is a merchant and a millionaire. A real Cinderella story, I'd say.
[09:47] Hijikata
    What do I care? What's with the "I'd say"? You piss me off.
[09:51] Hijikata
    You only notice the useless things.
[09:55] Hijikata
    In the first place, why're you wearing an afro?
[09:57] Yamazaki
    Vice-Chief, over there...!
[10:01] Okita
    I had a fun time today.
[10:03] Mitsuba
    So-chan, thank you for everything.
SIGN    [Note: The bag Mitsuba is holding is from JUMP FESTA.]
[10:05] Okita
    You should stay at our headquarters, at least for today.
[10:08] Okita
    You don't have to stay over at your fiancée's place.
[10:11] Mitsuba
    I'm sorry. There are a lot of things I need to take care of.
SIGN    [Note: Gin is wearing a Chopper hat. Okita is wearing Usopp glasses. (from One Piece)]
[10:16] Mitsuba
    Sakata-san, thank you very much for your company today.
[10:21] Gintoki
    Don't mention it.
[10:23] Okita
    All right, Sister, I'll say good-bye here. Please go on in.
[10:26] Mitsuba
    All right.
[10:28] Mitsuba
    Oh, So-chan.
[10:31] Mitsuba
    How is...he...?
[10:38] Okita
    I won't let you see that bastard.
[10:40] Okita
    He left this morning on a job without saying anything.
[10:44] Okita
    He's a cold-hearted bastard.
[10:51] Mitsuba
    Work comes first, as usual, it seems.
[10:54] Gintoki
    He gets me mixed up in this and then just up and leaves.
[10:59] Mitsuba
    Forgive him. He's a selfish child.
[11:02] Mitsuba
    It's my fault.
[11:04] Mitsuba
    He lost his parents when he was very young,
[11:07] Mitsuba
    so in order to keep him from feeling lonely, I indulged him while raising him.
[11:11] Mitsuba
    He's selfish, bull-headed, and hates to lose.
[11:14] Mitsuba
    That's why he was always a loner even back then.
[11:17] Mitsuba
    He didn't have a single friend.
[11:22] Mitsuba
    If he hadn't met Kondo-san, who knows how he might've turned out.
[11:26] Mitsuba
    Even now, I'm a bit anxious. Is he doing okay?
[11:32] Mitsuba
    You're not really his friend, are you?
[11:35] Gintoki
    Is he doing okay? How could he be?
[11:39] Gintoki
    He skips work, he's awakened his sadistic side, he's committed scandal,
[11:43] Gintoki
    and he's awakened his sadistic side...
[11:44] Gintoki
    He's no good. That shitty brat.
[11:47] Gintoki
    What kind of education did you give him?
[11:50] Gintoki
    He needs to choose his friends.
[11:52] Gintoki
    If he hangs around with people like me, nothing good is going to happen.
[11:59] Mitsuba
    You're a funny man. But...
[12:02] Mitsuba
    No wonder he's attracted to you. You're sort of similar.
[12:08] Gintoki
    Huh? Similar?
[12:12] Hijikata
    Hey.
[12:14] Hijikata
    What're you people doing here?
[12:17] Hijikata
    This mansion...
[12:26] Mitsuba
    Toshiro-sa...
[12:35] Gintoki
    Hey! Get ahold of yourself. Hey!
[12:43] Yamazaki
    She seems to finally be resting.
[12:46] Yamazaki
    I heard she was in poor health...
[12:48] Yamazaki
    but it appears her condition is worse that we thought.
[12:52] Yamazaki
    But that aside, why were you with Mitsuba-san, Boss?
[12:55] Gintoki
    It just happened.
[12:56] Gintoki
    What's with that afro?
[12:58] Yamazaki
    It just happened.
[12:59] Gintok
    How did that "just happen"?
[13:02] Gintoki
    For you...it doesn't look like "it just happened."
[13:08] Gintoki
    The way she collapsed just from seeing your face...
[13:10] Gintoki
    Something major must've happened between you two.
[13:14] Hijikata
    It's none of your business.
[13:16] Gintoki
    Forgive me.
[13:18] Gintoki
    It's boorish of me to stick my nose into what happens between a man and a woman.
[13:22] Gintoki
    I'm really sorry.
[13:23] Yamazaki
    Don't stop there, Boss.
[13:25] Yamazaki
    The Vice-Chief may not look it, but he's very naïve.
[13:29] Hijikata
    I said it's none of your business! What are you doing here, anyway?!
[13:33] Yamazaki
    Vice-Chief, calm down! There's an ill person right next to you!
[13:36] Hijikata
    Shut up! What're you wearing an afro for, anyway?!
[13:43] Kuraba
    Everyone.
[13:45] Kuraba
    I'm sorry I couldn't do more for you.
[13:49] Kuraba
    I'd like to thank you for carrying Mitsuba to my mansion.
[13:54] Kuraba
    I run the trading company "Tenkaiya." My name is Toma Kuraba.
[14:00] Yamazaki (Softly)
    He's going to become Mitsuba-san's husband.
[14:04] Kuraba
    I had warned her against walking around town because it would affect her health.
[14:09] Kuraba
    My Mitsuba has caused you all a great deal of inconvenience.
[14:12] Kuraba
    Your uniform...might you be members of the Shinsengumi?
[14:16] Kuraba
    Then you must be friends with Mitsuba's younger brother...
[14:19] Okita
    They're not my friends.
[14:22] Kuraba
    Sogo-kun.
[14:23] Kuraba
    Sogo-kun, so you came. Mitsuba-san is...
[14:28] Okita
    Well, if it isn't Hijikata-san. How odd for us to meet here.
[14:34] Okita
    How dare you come to see Sister.
[14:39] Yamazaki
    You misunderstand, Okita-san! We came because...
[14:47] Yamazaki
    Ow, ow, ow...
[14:49] Hijikata
    Sorry to bother you.
[14:53] Yamazaki
    Hi-Hijikata-san... Are you sure about this?
[15:08] Mitsuba
    So-chan. So-chan!
[15:11] Mitsuba
    So-chan, it's time for practice.
[15:16] Mitsuba
    What's the matter? You usually get up early by yourself to go to the dojo.
[15:21] Mitsuba
    Did something unpleasant happen?
[15:24] Young Okita
    There's a guy who pisses me off.
[15:26] Mitsuba
    The one who began coming to the dojo recently?
[15:29] Young Okita
    He's junior to me, but he's cocky and talks like we're equals.
[15:33] Young Okita
    Since he came, Kondo-san doesn't pay much attention to me.
[15:37] Young Okita
    I've had it. I don't want to go to the dojo.
[15:41] Mitsuba
    So-chan...
[15:46] Hijikata
    Okita Senpai. Time for practice.
[15:51] Young Okita
    You! Why're you at my house?!
[15:54] ---
    You jerk!
[15:55] Hijikata
    Kondo-san said to bring you.
[15:57] ---
    Lemme go, you jerk!
[15:59] Young Okita
    Ow, ow, ow!
[16:00] Hijikata
    C'mon, lets go, Senpai.
[16:03] Young Okita
    You! Is this any way to treat your Senpai?! Damn you!
[16:16] Young Okita (M)
    I don't like him.
[16:23] Kondo
    Just a minute! Mitsuba-dono!
[16:25] Kondo
    You shouldn't put on so much chili pepper!
[16:27] Kondo
    How many times do I have to tell you? It's bad for your health!
[16:30] Mitsuba
    But it's delicious.
[16:31] Kondo
    But nothing! It's definitely bad for you! It's completely red!
[16:35] Kondo
    Man, today's young people have a strange sense of taste.
[16:38] ---
    Don't they, Toshi?
[16:40] Kondo
    Toshi!
[16:42] Kondo
    What're you doing?! What's that you're eating?!
[16:45] Hijikata
    It's an IT taste revolution.
SIGN    [Note: A line from a joke by Japanese comedian Hikomaro.]
[16:46] Kondo
    What're you talking about?! Who're you trying to mimic?!
[16:51] Kondo
    Come on! Mitsuba-dono, you shouldn't eat that, I'm telling you!
[16:55] Mitsuba
    The inside of my mouth feels like the Social Insurance Agency coming apart.
SIGN    [Note: The Social Insurance Agency (found guilty of insurance fraud) was penalized with mass firings and restructuring. This was a big news item in Japan.]
[16:57] Kondo
    That's because you can't taste anything! What's that supposed to mean?
[17:00] Hijikata
    The inside of my mouth is...
SIGN    [Note: A famous phrase from the movie "Sailor Suit and Machine Gun."]
[17:01] ---
    Doddoddoddodotto!
[17:02] ---
    Wonderful!
[17:03] Kondo
    Now who're you supposed to be?! Hiroko? Masami?
[17:05] ---
    Either way, you gross me out.
[17:09] Young Okita (M)
    I don't like him.
[17:12] Young Okita (M)
    I don't like that guy.
[17:14] Young Okita (M)
    Yes, he's a guy I never liked from the beginning.
[17:20] Young Okita
    Hijikata-san.
[17:22] Okita
    Would you mind giving me a lesson?
[17:30] Mitsuba
    Forgive me.
[17:31] Mitsuba
    The ceremony's been postponed because of my health again, hasn't it?
[17:35] Kuraba
    That's all right. Let's take our time and make you well.
[17:38] Kuraba
    The ceremony is just a formality.
[17:40] Kuraba
    I've thought of us as a couple for quite some time now.
[17:44] Mitsuba
    Thank you, Toma-san.
[17:46] Kuraba
    I'll be going now since I have work to attend to.
[17:50] Kuraba
    You mustn't eat spicy foods, okay? It's bad for your body.
[17:53] Mitsuba
    I know. I'm not that much of a fool.
[17:58] Kuraba
    Well then... I'll be back.
SIGN    [Note: Bag says "Daioh Buffet" a spoof of the spicy snack, Dictator Habanero.]
[18:14] Mitsuba
    Incredible. You really do anything I ask!
[18:18] Gintoki
    I'm an Odd Jobs.
[18:20] Gintoki
    Don't eat too much now. It'll give you hemorrhoids.
[18:23] Mitsuba
    Do you think I collapsed because of hemorrhoids?
[18:28] Gintoki
    Hey, you want something, too? I have bananas.
[18:31] Yamazaki
    No thank you. I always carry sausages with me on secret agent activities.
[18:37] Mitsuba
    Oh, Yamazaki-san?
[18:39] ---
    What are you doing here?
[18:40] Yamazaki
    Oh no!
[18:42] Yamazaki
    Ow, ow, ow.
[18:45] Okita
    Looks like you've been sniffing around my sister lately.
[18:52] Okita
    What's the meaning of this?
[18:58] Okita
    Don't do anything more to ruin Sister's happiness.
[19:04] Okita
    I want you to stop.
[19:08] Hijikata
    Tenkaiya.
[19:10] Hijikata
    They are suspected of conspiring with lawless ronin in large weapons deals on the black market.
[19:15] Hijikata
    He's been selling weapons at high prices to ronin.
[19:19] Hijikata
    He's a black market dealer.
[19:21] Hijikata
    Your sister's fiancée is our enemy.
[19:26] Gintoki
    Does that woman know?
[19:29] Yamazaki
    No, the Vice-Chief told me not to tell anyone.
[19:31] Gintoki
    Sure you are-you're telling me.
[19:33] Yamazaki
    Ouch! But Boss, you...
[19:35] Gintoki
    What about me? Are you making it my fault?
[19:36] Okita
    Hijikata-san.
[19:37] ---
    Regardless of what sort of weapons the Anti-Foreigner Faction possess,
[19:40] ---
    all we have to do is kill them all. It's a minor problem.
[19:43] Okita
    He can't stay in business unless he's willing to deal with all sorts of people.
[19:50] Okita
    And you saw the kind of man he is and how deeply he is in love with my sister.
[19:56] Okita
    I'm sure he can make her happy.
[19:59] Hijikata
    Are you telling me to look the other way?
[20:03] Okita
    Is that how it sounded?
[20:06] Hijikata
    I'll pretend I didn't hear that.
[20:09] ---
    Your lesson is over.
[20:13] Okita
    We aren't finished talking yet!
[20:16] Hijikata
    Are you half-asleep or something?!
[20:18] Hijikata
    Surely you can't believe your sister will be happy with that...
[20:27] Okita
    She doesn't have much longer.
[20:30] Okita
    I'm told she doesn't...
[20:33] Okita
    have much longer to live.
[20:37] Okita
    I can't stand it.
[20:39] Okita
    Since I was little, she took care of me, ignoring her own needs, and even...
[20:45] Okta
    But now when she's about to grasp happiness at last...
[20:49] Okita
    At least before she dies, I want her to experience happiness like other people.
[20:56] Okita
    I'm not saying to let him go. Just for a little while...
[21:02] Okita
    Hijikata-san, Sister stayed single all this time because you were...
[21:07] Hijikata
    Hey.
[21:08] Hijikata
    The deal goes down tomorrow night.
[21:12] Hijikata
    Make sure your sword's in good shape.
[21:16] Okita (M)
    I don't like him.
[21:18] Okita (M)
    He's always like that.
[21:20] Okita (M)
    He just happens to show up and swipe everything I hold dear.
[21:30] Okita
    Hijikata!!
[21:39] Mitsuba
    Is it true you're all going to Edo to find success?
[21:42] Hijikata
    Where'd you hear that?
[21:44] Mitsuba
    So-chan...he looked so happy this morning.
[21:47] Hijikata
    That idiot.
[21:50] Mitsuba
    Take me...with you...
[21:54] Mitsuba
    I'm...after all, like a parent to So-chan. If I'm not there, that child...
[22:01] Mitsuba
    And also because...I...
[22:05] Mitsuba
    Everyone...
[22:10] Mitsuba
    I want to stay with...
[22:13] Mitsuba
    you, Toshiro-san.
[22:22] Hijikata
    Whatever.
[22:26] Hijikata
    What you do is up to you.
[22:34] Okita
    I...don't like...
[22:37] Okita
    him...
