[00:31] Gu     The inn town of Barato used     to be run by the Hidoro clan, [00:35] Gu     but now one of their own,     a man named Kusuda Umakichi, [00:37] Gu     built another gambling hall nearby. [00:40] Gu     Ever since then, they've been      killing each other. [00:43] Gu     You're a bodyguard, too, right? [00:45] Gu     I can tell by looking at your face. [00:47] Gu     Who are you going to join? [00:49] O     I don't know. [00:50] O     By the way, you seen any men     with strange-looking tattoos? [00:55] O     Tattoos?

[03:32] Gu     The bodies in the basement seem     to have been buried in the rubble. [03:36] Gu     If those two's bodies are in here,     they might be down there. [03:39] Gu     Shiraishi said that Ienaga and Ushiyama [03:40] Gu     were on the second floor until     just before the explosion. [03:44] Gu     I can't see them being     buried in the basement. [03:47] Gu     It's possible the two of them got out okay. [03:50] Gu     Get rid of that fish cake. [03:52] Gu     That Shiraishi blew up the     explosives we just bought. [03:57] A     Where'd he go? [03:58] S     Susukino, probably. [04:00] S     That pervert. [04:01] Gu     I'm right here! [04:05] Gu     We'll need money to buy more explosives. [04:08] S     What's the plan? [04:09] A     There's a kotan in Naganuma, near here. [04:11] A     I have relatives there. [04:13] A     We can hunt there to make money. SIGN    Naganuma [04:21] A     Look, Sugimoto. We caught one. [04:23] S     You're right. [04:24] A     It's a cironnup. [04:26] A     A northern fox. [04:27] A     We hit it with a stick to finish it. [04:29] S     Please do it in one hit. [04:33] A     For this trap, you pound four-inch     nails into an old oil bucket. [04:37] A     When the fox sticks its head in to lick     the oil, it gets caught and can't get out. [04:44] A     There's a legend that when it gets     warm and the red-pelt foxes come out, [04:47] A     they do bad things to humans. [04:49] A     So we call them ikkakar     cironnup, "trickster foxes." [04:54] A     You can sell a fox pelt for one yen. [04:57] A     River otters sell for about the same. [04:59] A     Bear belts go for 5 yen this year. [05:01] A     Ezo squirrels are cheaper, around 20 sen. [05:04] Gi     One fox is 6 big bottles of sake, huh? [05:07] S     If you hadn't wasted those explosives,      right now we'd be... [05:12] S     You piss me off. [05:14] Gu     Sugimoto, there's also the     fact that in Sapporo, he... [05:17] Gu     Kiro-chan, don't tell him that! [05:19] Gu     He borrowed money from Asirpa     and lost it all at the races. [05:24] Gu     You told him! [05:26] (Flashback) Gu     Go, go! [05:27] (Flashback) Gu     No! No! [05:31] (Flashback) Gu     Oh, no... [05:36] Gu     You used that money for gambling? [05:38] S     Lick the bottom of this bucket. [05:40] Gu     No! [05:45] Gu     We'll have to stay here for a while. [05:51] A     This is Huci's little brother,      one of six siblings. [05:55] A     He's letting us stay in his cise here today. SIGN    I've been meeting some surprising folks lately! [06:08] A     A strange woman came here     a while ago and is staying. [06:12] A     She says she can see the past and future, [06:15] A     and she's driving everyone     in the village crazy. [06:21] A     There she is. [06:27] A     Her name is Inkarmat. [06:31] Gi     Look at our wonderful Nispa guests. [06:35] Gu     Shiraishi Yoshitake!      I'm single, no girlfriend! [06:38] Gi     Oh, my! Your head is bleeding! [06:41] Gu     I was forced to wear a bucket     with nails on my head! [06:44] Gi     I have a weakness for men with scars. [06:47] Gi     You're quite the looker, too, soldier. [06:52] S     Thanks... SIGN    Sugimoto puts poop in his food and eats it. [06:57] Gi     Oh, isn't it stinky? [07:00] S     Asirpa, you just said the words "Sugimoto,"     "ohau," and "osoma," didn't you? [07:03] S     You told her I eat poop again, didn't you? [07:06] A     Did not. [07:07] Gi     Wait a second... [07:10] Gi     You came from Otaru, didn't you? [07:14] Gu     How did you know? [07:17] A     She probably heard that my great uncle     had a lot of relatives in Otaru. [07:21] S     I see. [07:23] Gu     I can see it... [07:25] Gu     You're looking for someone or something... [07:29] Gu     No way! Wow! [07:31] Gu     You're right! [07:34] Gu     I'm a fortune-teller. [07:37] Gu     The Ainu call it "niuok." [07:38] Gu     When they're uncertain what to do on     any matter, no matter how big or small, [07:42] Gu     they rely on fortune-telling. [07:44] Gu     And they obey the result,     regardless of what it is, [07:46] Gu     as the will of the gods. [07:49] Gu     Sirakki Kamuy. [07:50] Gu     A fox skull used in fortune-telling. [07:53] Gu     It's been passed down in     my family for generations, [07:56] Gu     and it's the skull of a white fox,     the kind with the most spiritual power. [08:00] Gu     First, you put the lower jaw on your head, [08:03] Gu     and then slowly drop it. [08:04] Gu     You look at the way it fell     to determine your fortune. [08:08] Gu     The teeth facing up are a good omen. [08:12] Gu     I shall tell your fortune and see if     you'll find what you're looking for. [08:25] Gu     The teeth are facing downwards. [08:27] Gu     There is no hope for you. [08:29] Gu     I feel an ominous sign. [08:31] Gu     You should cancel your plans. [08:34] Gu     Seriously? [08:36] A     She's just coming up with guesses     that could apply to anything. [08:41] A     I don't believe in fortune-telling. [08:43] A     I'm a new kind of Ainu woman. [08:47] Gi     I see. [08:48] Gi     It's simply a fortune, not an order. [08:53] Gi     By the way, is it your father     that you're looking for? [09:00] Gi     It's just a guess, so don't let it worry you. [09:08] A     That ikkakar cironnup... [09:11] Gu     Her fortune-telling is strangely accurate, [09:15] Gu     and the villagers have gone     crazy offering her gifts. [09:19] A     She's probably going to a lot of     different villages and doing this. [09:29] A     I knew it. Shiraishi's missing. [09:32] S     Sheesh. [09:33] Gu     I found him. I know where he is. [09:37] S     Where is he? SIGN    Naganuma Racetrack [09:44] S     Inkarmat-chan, make me filthy rich! [09:47] Gi     Sounds fun! I'm in! [09:49] Gu     Now, let's pick our horses! [09:52] Gu     That's your cue, Inkarmat-chan! [09:55] Gu     How about that one? [09:59] Gi     There we go. [10:00] Gi     That's the horse. [10:01] Gi     The Sirakki Kamuy says #4. [10:04] Gu     Really? [10:05] Gu     You're sure? [10:07] Gi     My Sirakki Kamuy never lies. [10:10] Gi     I've got just the thing     for you, Shiraishi-san. [10:12] Gi     This is a talisman called an ekaeka. [10:14] Gi     If you wrap it around your wrist,     it will protect you from disaster. [10:18] Gu     Thank you, Inkarmat-chan! [10:20] Gi     It's twenty sen! [10:24] Gi     Okay, I'm counting on you! [10:26] Gi     If I lose here, I'm flat broke! [10:28] ---     Number 4! Number 4! [10:30] Gi     Go! Go! [10:32] Gi     Looking good! There it goes! [10:34] Gi     Just like that— [10:38] Gi     I won... [10:39] Gi     I really won! [10:41] Gi     Wow, Inkarmat-chan! [10:44] Gi     Okay, help me with the next race! [10:46] Gi     I've got just the thing     for you, Shiraishi-san. [10:50] Gi     This is an ikema root. [10:52] Gi     It smells terrible, so it will keep evil away. [10:55] Gu     How much? [10:56] Gi     Seventy sen! [10:58] Gu     Gimme! [11:00] Gi     The next horse to win will be #2! [11:02] Gu     Okay, I'm counting on you! [11:03] Gu     Come on, #2! [11:12] A     There they are. [11:13] A     The red fox and the Scat King. [11:15] S     Hey, Shiraishi! [11:20] Gu     Oh, I thought I smelled     poor people. It's you guys, huh? [11:23] S     Shiraishi, you owe Asirpa-san money,      and you're still coming to the racetrack? [11:27] S     That's pretty damn brave, if you ask me. [11:29] Gu     Owe her money? [11:30] Gu     How much was it? [11:33] Gu     Two yen? Three yen? [11:35] Gu     Here, pick it up. [11:37] S     What's he— [11:38] A     Wake up, Shiraishi! [11:40] A     If you try to use fortune-telling     to gamble, you'll end up regretting it! [11:44] A     Don't let this fox woman fool you! [11:46] Gu     Who are you calling a fox, you rude girl?! [11:49] Gu     Call her Inkarmat-sama! [11:50] A     Your breath stinks. [11:53] Gu     The two most likely to win next are #3 and #4. [11:56] Gu     You can tell fortunes, too, Kiroranke? [11:59] Gu     I grew up riding horses. [12:02] Gu     I know so much about them that     during the Russo-Japanese War, [12:04] Gu     they had me take care of the     combat engineer's horses. [12:08] Gi     The fox skull says #3 will win next, yes. [12:11] Gu     Number 3, right?! Off to go win, then! [12:14] S     Wait, you idiot! SIGN    Golden Kamuy [12:28] Gu     There you are, Takasaki! [12:29] Gu     I've been looking for you! [12:31] Gu     What? [12:31] Gu     Hey, that doesn't look     anything like him, idiot! [12:34] Gu     Takasaki doesn't have a beard like this! [12:36] Gu     And he doesn't dress like an Ainu, either! [12:39] Gu     Something wrong? [12:41] Gu     The jockey who owns that cap ran. [12:43] Gu     Can you ride a horse? [12:48] Gu     The horse's owner told his     jockey to cheat, so he ran. [12:52] Gu     The owner is a yakuza boss, [12:55] Gu     and he's planning to make     an unpopular horse win. [12:57] Gu     If we fail, they'll make us pay for it. [13:00] Gu     We'll give him a lot of     water before the race. [13:03] Gu     That'll make him a lot slower. [13:06] Gu     You can just ride it normally. [13:11] Gu     You want to win, don't you? [13:13] Gu     Hey, hold it down! [13:17] Gu     What are they doing? [13:19] Gu     That's the horse that's going to win. [13:21] Gu     They mix powdered viper into the water, [13:23] Gu     then jam a rubber hose up     its nose and pour it in. [13:26] Gu     Sometimes they put it down the     trachea and kill it, though. [13:34] Gu     Hey. [13:36] S     Who's there? [13:37] Gu     Is that... [13:39] Gu     Bet on me. [13:41] A     His beard... [13:42] S     What's going on? [13:44] Gu     I'll give you the details later. [13:45] Gu     I'll be riding horse #3 in the last race. [13:48] Gu     I'm going to win. [13:50] Gu     Inkarmat-sama, please tell me the future! [13:53] Gu     Give me guidance for I am a lost! [13:56] Gu     Very well... [14:04] Gu     The Sirakki Kamuy says that #3 can't win. [14:09] A     Shiraishi, that's enough. [14:13] A     Fortune-telling is what you need     when you're not sure what to do. [14:17] A     I have no uncertainty on this journey. [14:19] A     So I don't need fortune-telling. [14:24] Gi     The Sirakki Kamuy says that #6 will win. [14:27] Gu     Number 6, right? [14:28] Gu     I'll bet everything I have! [14:29] S     Shiraishi, you fool! [14:31] S     Leave enough to buy explosives! [14:33] Gu     No, I'm going to bet it all! [14:35] Gu     Inkarmat-sama, go buy the ticket for me! [14:38] Gi     Okay! [14:39] S     Wait! [14:41] Gu     You came to Hokkaido because     you needed money, right? [14:44] Gu     How much do you need? [14:46] Gu     You don't need 20,000 kan     worth of gold, right? [14:51] A     Fox woman! [14:54] Gi     Did you come to stop me? [14:56] Gi     I already bought it. [14:57] Gi     All the money he has on #6. [14:59] Gi     But wouldn't it be better for you if he lost? [15:06] Gi     If those men make a fortune here, [15:09] Gi     will they still help you? [15:13] Gu     There's a way to make money [15:15] Gu     right in front of you that doesn't     involve risking your life! [15:26] S     "I have the money I need, so I'm out." [15:32] S     Do you think I could say that to her? [15:39] Gi     Your eyes... [15:41] Gi     They have a pretty color,     just like your father's. [15:47] Gi     We'll meet again, Asirpa-chan. [15:56] Gu     What's this horse's name? [15:58] Gu     Reppuu. [15:59] Gu     Listen. [16:00] Gu     It's #6 that has to win. [16:02] Gu     If we don't get #6 to win, we'll be killed! [16:07] Gu     Make sure Reppuu drinks all this water. [16:14] Gu     Let's go, Reppuu. [16:23] Gu     I'm counting on you, #6! [16:25] Gu     If you lose, I'll dine on horse stew tonight! [16:28] Gu     Go, #6! [16:35] S     Kiroranke was slow out of the gate! [16:36] Gu     Told you. [16:40] Gu     Out of my way! [16:50] Gu     Go, Reppuu! [16:51] Gu     Run as hard as you can! [16:53] Gu     Look! [16:55] Gu     How is #3's jockey doing that? [17:05] A     This one ticket is for #3. [17:10] A     Go, Reppuu! Go, go! [17:14] A     What is he doing? [17:16] A     Stop! Stop! [17:23] A     No! [17:24] S     Go, Kiroranke! [17:26] Gu     Go! [17:43] Gu     Let's get out of here. [17:44] Gu     The yakuza boss lost some serious money,      so he'll be looking for me. [17:49] Gu     Where's Shiraishi? [17:50] S     Over there. Broken. [17:53] A     Let's leave him. [17:54] A     He'll follow us. [17:59] Gu     I did it! I'm rich! [18:06] Gu     I was tricked by a fox. [18:31] Gu     Is this what you're looking for? [18:34] Gu     What are you after? [18:35] Gu     I followed you here because I happened     to hear rumors about the tattoos. [18:40] Gu     But when I saw you at     the barber, I knew it was you. [18:43] Gu     I worked for Lt. Tsurumi, so I know you well. [18:50] Gu     Do you need a good bodyguard,     Hijikata Toshizou-san? [19:03] Gu     Hey! [19:04] A     Did you wake up from your dream, Scat King? [19:07] Gu     Yeah, I guess I had a bad dream. [19:10] Gu     Gambling is wrong, huh? [19:12] Gu     I've learned my lesson. [19:13] S     You haven't learned your     lesson at all, have you? [19:16] Gu     Get to work getting ready. [19:18] Gu     Abashiri's a long ways away. [19:19] Gu     But first... [19:21] Gu     Interested in some special information? [19:24] Gu     It had better not be as     horrible as it usually is. [19:27] Gu     Well, hear me out. [19:28] Gu     I heard this from a cutie in Susukino. [19:33] (Flashback) Gi     A month ago, a man came to my hotel, alone. [19:37] (Flashback) Gi     He was a thief, [19:39] (Flashback) Gi     but when he snuck into a certain house,     he saw something strange. [19:43] (Flashback) Gi     There were taxidermied human     mounts made from corpses. [19:47] (Flashback) Gi     And he saw a skin with a strange     tattoo that wasn't a yakuza's. [19:53] Gu     And that house is in Yuubari, she says. [19:58] Gu     We don't know for sure that the     Abashiri plan will work, right? [20:02] Gu     If we happen to get information on     the prisoners or tattoos on our way, [20:06] Gu     I think it's worth checking out. [20:11] S     Yuubari, huh? [20:20] S     We have five tattoo code skins. [20:23] S     Lt. Tsurumi has at least one... [20:29] S     Have they gotten any more? SIGN    Yuubari [22:24] S     Sergeant Tsukishima, [22:25] S     keep your eyes on that grave. [22:28] S     It was dug just after the accident     in the coal mines yesterday. [22:32] S     Yes. [22:33] S     Do you think they'll take the bait? [22:35] S     Word of a coal mine accident will     spread through Yuubari quickly. [22:40] S     I'm sure the grave robber will hear it, too. [22:45] S     What's wrong, Nikaidou? [22:47] S     Youhei's ears look just like yours. [22:51] S     Can I have just your left ear? [22:54] S     I feel bad for him, 'cause he's missing one. [22:57] S     Sure, sure. Once I'm dead, you can have it. [23:01] S     Lt. Tsurumi! [23:03] S     Really, Lt. Tsurumi? [23:14] S     Follow him. [23:15] S     Don't kill him, Nikaidou!
