    Huki leaves are a spring
    food that can be eaten raw.
[00:06] Gi
    Ainu children enjoy them as
    snacks when they're out playing.
[00:13] Gi
    But the area around your lips
    turns black when you eat them,
[00:16] Gi
    so people can tell you did.
[00:19] Gi
    To the Ainu, there are only really
    two seasons: winter and summer.
[00:24] Gu
    Winter is the men's season, when they
    go into the mountains to hunt.
[00:26] Gu
    And when the ice melts and turns to water,
[00:28] Gu
    the women's season, matnepa, comes.
[00:31] Gu
    That's when you pick lots of
    herbs and vegetables to preserve.
[00:35] Gu
    You prepare during summer,
    so you won't have to worry
[00:39] Gu
    about starving in the long winter to come.
[00:44] Gu
    From now on, the women in every
    kotan are about to be very busy.

    Oh, looks like somebody's here.
[01:14] Gu
    You can stay seated.
[01:15] Gu
    Who could be here this early?
[01:18] Gu
    Hello.
[01:20] Gu
    Do you need something?
[01:22] Gu
    Good morning.
[01:24] Gu
    I've heard you deal in taxidermy.
[01:28] Gu
    Yes, that's right.
[01:32] Gu
    Please, come inside.
[01:34] Gu
    I have a lot I can show you.
SIGN    Edogai Taxidermist
[01:37] Gu
    Thank you.
[01:43] Gu
    I was hoping to get some mounts
    for the 7th Division's guesthouse.
[01:49] Gu
    You're as good as the rumors say.
SIGN    Episode Thirteen
    Edogai-kun
[01:51] Gu
    There are so many good pieces,
    I don't know what to choose!
[01:55] Gu
    Even a polar bear.
[01:56] Gu
    Sometimes I just import the pelts and
    put them over models I make here.
[02:01] Gu
    Is this one still being worked on?
[02:04] Gu
    Why is it upside down?
[02:06] Gu
    If you hang them like that, the skin and
    feathers plump up and make it more realistic.
[02:11] Gu
    The true test of a taxidermist's
    skill is how well
[02:15] Gu
    he can recreate what they
    looked like in life.
[02:17] Gu
    If you don't mind my asking,
[02:19] Gu
    is there sufficient demand for taxidermists
    in Yuubari to sustain your business?
[02:25] Gu
    A kitty!
[02:26] Gu
    It's a kitty!
[02:28] Gu
    No, most of my business comes from overseas.
[02:31] Gu
    Wealthy people all over the
    world want taxidermy mounts
[02:33] Gu
    of animals you can only find in Japan.
[02:36] Gu
    I was born in Nara originally,
[02:39] Gu
    but I moved to Hokkaido, where the
    temperature is low and the air is dry,
[02:42] Gu
    in an attempt to improve my craft.
[02:46] Gu
    You live alone here in Yuubari?
[02:48] Gu
    No, I live with my mother.
[02:51] Gu
    I'm afraid she has a bad hip,
[02:53] Gu
    and stays in the back.
[02:55] Gu
    Oh no, don't worry about it.
[02:59] Gu
    I see.
[03:01] Gu
    The most important part of a good
    mount is having fresh materials.
[03:04] Gu
    In other words, you need fresh corpses.
[03:10] Gu
    You're very particular about your work
    and take a great deal of pride in it.
[03:13] Gu
    The ideal craftsman!
[03:15] Gu
    No, I...
[03:20] Gu
    Edogai-kun...
[03:23] Gu
    I came to give you your glove back.
[03:31] Gi
    Oh, what could that sound be?
[03:34] Gu
    Something seems strange.
[03:36] Gi
    Yasaku-san, did you hurt yourself?
[03:38] Gi
    Are you all right?
[03:41] Gu
    It's nothing!
[03:42] Gu
    I just dropped a mount!
[03:45] Gu
    I've never seen that glove before.
[03:47] Gu
    It's not mine.
[03:49] Gu
    You thought you'd escaped
    us last night, correct?
[03:54] Gu
    We pretended we'd lost you,
    and then followed you here.
[03:57] Gu
    Edogai-kun...
[04:03] Gu
    Think he's got it?
[04:06] Gu
    There was a rumor several months ago about
    a coal miner who'd died in an accident,
[04:10] Gu
    a man with a strange tattoo.
[04:13] Gu
    We dug up the grave, but it was empty.
[04:17] Gu
    Which means it was stolen by a grave robber.
[04:22] Gu
    Drifters often end up working as miners,
    and they often don't survive long.
[04:26] Gu
    The air here is cool and dry,
    and bodies don't rot even when buried.
[04:30] Gu
    Which means that Yuubari is an
    excellent source of fresh corpses.
[04:35] Gu
    I don't know what you're talking about.
[04:38] Gu
    Leave!
[04:41] Gu
    Night after night you dug up
    fresh corpses from the graveyard,
[04:45] Gu
    stripping off their skin to
    make this glove, didn't you?
[04:52] Gu
    Wonderful!
[04:54] Gu
    Can I have one, too?
[04:59] Gu
    What?
[04:59] Gu
    Even after heavy use, it's still
    comfortable and soft against the skin!
[05:04] Gu
    And it fits perfectly,
    right down to the tips of the fingers,
[05:06] Gu
    so your fingers can move freely
    enough to pick up tiny coins!
[05:08] Gu
    I've never seen a leather
    glove like this before!
[05:12] Gu
    You didn't come to arrest me?
[05:14] Gu
    Catching grave robbers isn't my job.
[05:22] Gu
    I'm sorry.
[05:24] Gu
    That glove isn't made from human skin.
[05:27] Gu
    It's pigskin.
[05:29] Gu
    Pigs?
[05:30] Gu
    The "nails" were made from
    pig hooves and glued on.
[05:34] Gu
    To tell you the truth,
    I'd gone to the graveyard
[05:37] Gu
    to dispose of a large amount
    of waste products from my work.
[05:42] Gu
    I thought you'd found me.
[05:45] Gu
    All right.
[05:46] Gu
    If you like it that much, you can have it!
[05:50] Gu
    I have more. I'll go get one.
[05:57] Gu
    You seem to be having a good time out there.
[05:59] Gu
    Yes, I am.
[06:01] Gu
    But you just met him, right?
[06:03] Gu
    It's not a good idea to trust him easily.
[06:06] Gu
    That's not true.
[06:08] Gu
    Yasaku-san's a great judge of character!
[06:10] Gu
    No, it's better to be careful!
[06:12] Gu
    That's why you have no friends.
    You talk like that.
[06:16] Gu
    Quiet, everyone.
[06:19] Gu
    Hello, everyone.
[06:27] Gu
    Are these all made from
    pigskin, too, Edogai-kun?
[06:32] Gi
    Kill him.
[06:33] Gu
    He's seen us.
[06:34] Gu
    Kill him.
[06:35] Gu
    Stuff and mount him.
[06:37] Gu
    Kill him.
[06:40] Gu
    Kill him!
[06:42] Gu
    Kill him!
[06:44] Gu
    Kill him!
[06:47] Gu
    They look like they could
    come to life at any moment!
[06:50] Gu
    You're a genius, Edogai-kun!
[06:54] Gi
    Don't trust him, Yasaku-san!
[06:56] Gi
    He's a bad man!
[06:58] Gu
    But, Mom, he's...
[07:00] Gu
    Are you the only one who can hear her voice?
[07:04] Gi
    Kill him!
[07:05] Gi
    Now that he's seen us, he cannot leave alive!
[07:07] Gu
    That's what you always say! You try
    to drive everyone away from me!
[07:11] Gu
    You killed Dad, and he was my friend!
[07:15] Gu
    It's not healthy to spend all
    day talking to stuffed corpses.
[07:20] Gi
    Shut up, plate-for-brains!
[07:21] Gi
    Your father was a bad man,
    just like all the other men!
[07:24] Gi
    Nobody loves you!
[07:27] Gu
    Shut up!
[07:28] Gi
    That's why I castrated you, because you
    looked like your father down there!
[07:31] Gu
    Edogai-kun, listen to my voice.
[07:34] Gi
    It was all for you!
[07:36] Gu
    Stop it, please!
[07:38] Gi
    I did it all for you!
[07:40] Gu
    Edogai-kun!
[07:46] Gu
    Incredible...
[07:52] Gu
    That's human skin, isn't it?
[07:55] Gu
    Yup. What do you think?
[07:57] Gu
    I made it by ripping skin
    off from bodies myself.
[08:00] Gu
    Don't open your heart to him!
[08:03] gi
    Shut up, Mom!
[08:05] Gu
    Shall we talk in your workshop?
[08:11] Gu
    You may not have done the "sen"
    process correctly during tanning.
[08:14] Gu
    "Sen"?
[08:16] Gu
    The process of scraping off pieces of fat
    and meat that are still stuck to the skin.
[08:20] Gu
    If you're not careful when you
    do it, the work won't last.
[08:23] Gu
    Your skin's a little rough here.
[08:25] Gu
    Did you use alum when you tanned it?
[08:28] Gu
    Yes.
[08:29] Gu
    That's not good for people
    with sensitive skin.
[08:32] Gu
    I recommend tannic acid!
[08:35] Gu
    It's plant-based, so it's easy on the skin.
[08:37] Gu
    Edogai-kun, if you have
    any more of your work,
[08:40] Gu
    would you try it on for me?
[08:43] Gu
    Really?
[08:49] Gu
    What do you think, Tsurumi-san?
[08:53] Gu
    I love it!
[08:54] Gu
    It's wonderful, Edogai-kun!
[08:59] Gu
    I love it!
[09:01] Gu
    That's cutting-edge fashion, Edogai-kun!
[09:04] Gu
    I want to see more!
[09:05] Gu
    I want to see more of
    your wonderful clothing!
[09:09] Gu
    A kitty! Walk like a kitty!
[09:13] Gu
    It's so cute!
[09:22] Gu
    What the hell is going on?
[09:26] Gu
    Huh?
[09:31] Gu
    No dice.
[09:33] Gu
    It's gotta be Lt. Tsurumi's.
[09:36] Gu
    Oops... Youhei's ear.
[09:39] ---
    Huh? Wait, what?
[09:41] ---
    So much fun!
[09:43] Gu
    Mom!
[09:45] Gi
    No!
[09:47] Gu
    There's the ear!
[09:47] Gi
    What are you doing to Mom?
[09:51] Gu
    Here, take it.
[09:54] Gu
    Shoot your mother.
[09:57] Gi
    What sort of terrible son
    points a gun at his mother?!
[10:00] Gu
    Decide! Of your own free will!
[10:03] Gu
    No...
[10:04] Gi
    No! Don't shoot!
[10:05] Gu
    You have to leave your nest.
[10:07] Gu
    Your nest was a twisted place,
[10:09] Gu
    and that's why you grew up twisted!
[10:10] Gi
    Don't do it!
[10:18] Gu
    The voice... stopped.
[10:22] Gu
    My mother died of a heart attack.
[10:26] Gu
    I should've ended things while she was alive.
[10:30] Gu
    Thank you.
[10:34] Gu
    By the way, I wanted to
    make a deal with you.
[10:37] Gu
    What is it?
[10:38] Gu
    The tattooed skins that you and I are
     wearing right now are part of a code.
[10:44] Gu
    I want to make false skins,
    bearing nonsense.
[10:49] Gu
    I want you to make several clever
    fakes that only we can identify.
[10:54] Gu
    We're going to bring real chaos
    into this war for the tattoos.
SIGN    Otaru
[11:02] Gu
    We've got tattoos from me,
    Ushiyama Tatsuuma, Ienaga here,
[11:10] Gu
    Hijikata Toshizou, and two
    copies made on oiled paper.
[11:15] Gu
    And the one Ogata Hyakunosuke
    acquired in Barato.
[11:19] Gu
    That's six in all.
[11:21] Gu
    So the goal's to get a
    bunch of weirdos, old men,
[11:24] Gu
    and thugs together to
    restore the Ezo Republic?
[11:27] Gu
    If this is some petty dream of revenge,
[11:29] Gu
    that's not fair to the people
    who are following you.
[11:35] Gu
    Nopperabo is an Ainu, right?
[11:40] Gu
    Did Lt. Tsurumi know that?
[11:44] Gu
    There was one thing in
    common about the belongings
[11:47] Gu
    of all seven of the men Nopperabo killed.
[11:51] Gu
    They were damaged.
[11:54] Gu
    Ainu funerals involve destroying or damaging
    the items the dead are buried with,
[11:58] Gu
    ending their role in this world so
    that they can be used in the next.
[12:04] Gu
    He ripped the bodies apart, but took
    time to damage everything they owned.
[12:11] Gu
    It feels, in a way, like atonement.
[12:14] Gu
    The seven who were murdered were sent
     from villages from all over Hokkaido.
[12:18] Gu
    They were going to use the gold to
    buy weapons to fight the Japanese.
[12:22] Gu
    If Nopperabo was trying to help the
    Ainu gain independence for Hokkaido,
[12:26] Gu
    why did he kill them?
[12:28] Gu
    Did he betray them because he
    wanted the gold for himself?
[12:33] Gu
    My guess is that Nopperabo is a partisan
     from the far eastern part of Russia,
[12:38] Gu
    who was pretending to be Ainu.
[12:41] Gu
    Russia is far from a unified place.
[12:44] Gu
    There's the forces of the czar,
    Lenin's Communist Party,
[12:48] Gu
    and then there's the partisans, composed of
     some of the ethnic minorities.
[12:52] Gu
    Each one of these groups
    is fighting the others.
[12:57] Gu
    So Nopperabo was a partisan, trying to
    gain funds for a war of independence.
[13:03] Gu
    He tried to move the money
    out via Karafuto, but failed.
[13:07] Gu
    And that's how this whole thing got started?
[13:10] Gu
    You never trusted Nopperabo
    at all, did you, old man?
[13:16] Gu
    Which means that No-Face's
    allies outside the prison...
[13:21] Gu
    ...are very likely to be partisans
    pretending to be Ainu, too.

    The masu salmon have come back
    to the rivers again this year.
[13:37] Gu
    Sugimoto, you were eating huki, weren't you?
[13:39] Gu
    So were you!
[13:41] Gu
    So were you, Asirpa-chan.
[13:44] Gu
    You're kidding me.
[13:45] Gu
    How?
[13:46] Gu
    Asirpa-chan, you ate too much!
[13:52] Gu
    This is masu salmon ohau,
[13:54] Gu
    the most delicious food
    you can eat in spring.
[13:56] Gu
    Let's eat!
[14:00] Gu
    Hinna, hinna.
[14:02] Gu
    It's great!
[14:03] Gu
    The pukusa is so sweet!
[14:05] Gu
    We survived the long winter
    by eating dried foods,
[14:09] Gu
    so it's wonderful when spring comes
    and you can eat fresh foods again.
[14:15] Gu
    The huki's a little bitter,
[14:17] Gu
    but it's sweet and delicious.
[14:18] Gi
    It's the taste of spring, sweet and bitter!
[14:39] (Flashback) Gi
    Tell me about Mommy.
[14:42] (Flashback) Gu
    Again?
[14:44] (Flashback) Gu
    She was a beautiful woman, just like you.
[14:48] (Flashback) Gu
    We met in Otaru.
[14:50] (Flashback) Gu
    She taught me all the things I didn't know.
[14:54] (Flashback) Gu
    The words of the Ainu who lived here,
[14:56] (Flashback) Gu
    and everything they believed.
[14:59] (Flashback) Gu
    My blood, and the blood of
    the Ainu who live here...
[15:03] (Flashback) Gu
    You're a mix of both, so you'll
    be a new kind of Ainu woman.
[15:08] (Flashback) Gu
    And you'll be the leader of the Ainu.
[15:12] (Flashback) Gu
    Your eyes are the same as mine.
[15:17] (Flashback) Gu
    Never forget what I'm about to tell you.
[15:24] Gu
    Shiraishi, wake up!
[15:27] Gu
    How long are you going to
    keep sleeping, you pig?
[15:30] Gu
    We're leaving.
[15:31] Gu
    Yuubari's still a long way off.
[15:33] Gu
    You seem upset this morning.
[15:36] Gu
    Your breath probably stank
    while you were asleep.
[15:43] Gu
    It's no good.
[15:46] Gu
    I can't get the same color this way.
[15:50] Gu
    It won't fool anybody!
[15:52] Gu
    You can only get that color
    off of a living human.
[15:56] Gu
    Damn it! I can't do it!
[15:58] Gu
    I just can't do it!
[16:00] Gu
    Keep at it, Edogai-kun.
[16:02] Gu
    Concentrate! Concentrate!
[16:03] Gu
    Okay, Tsukishima-san! Should I
    tattoo you and then rip off your skin?
[16:07] Gu
    Where's Tsurumi-san? I want to see him!
[16:11] Gu
    Lt. Tsurumi returned to Otaru.
[16:13] Gu
    I'm only taking orders from him, got it?
[16:17] Gu
    Bring Tsurumi-san here!
[16:20] Gu
    Bring him here!

    Your friend there doesn't look Ainu.
[16:34] Gu
    Are those soldiers' clothes
    underneath that jacket?
[16:37] Gu
    Just give me bullets for this Murata gun.
[16:41] Gu
    You know, an Ainu woman
    was here not long ago.
[16:44] Gu
    She asked if I knew of a village where
    an Ainu girl with blue eyes lived.
[16:49] Gu
    Didn't your niece have eyes like that?
[16:52] Gu
    What was she like?
[16:55] Gu
    She was pretty.
[16:57] Gu
    I think she said she was a fortune-teller.
[17:02] Gu
    You're walking a lot better now.
[17:04] Gu
    Yeah.
[17:05] Gu
    It barely hurts at all now.
[17:07] Gu
    What will you do now, Tanigaki?
[17:15] Gu
    Want to kill it before we go home?
[17:17] Gu
    It'll make a nice present.
[17:20] Gu
    That bird's ripping off its winter
    coat to take back to its nest.
[17:23] Gu
    Good... the deer hasn't noticed us yet.
[17:33] Gu
    Yes!
[17:39] Gu
    I was going to aim for the neck.
[17:41] Gu
    We got interrupted.
[17:44] Gu
    Still, nice job getting it in a single shot.
[17:46] Gu
    Is that a boy from the village?
[17:48] Gu
    I've never seen him before.
[17:49] Gu
    He's a weirdo.
[17:51] Gu
    He never plays with the
    rest of the village kids.
[17:52] Gu
    But he's interested in the hunt.
[17:57] (Flashback) Gu
    Tanigaki's kid, Genjirou, put on a straw
    coat and followed the hunt again!

    If you want to watch from up closer,

    gather up some pine boughs.
[18:11] Gu
    The front legs of a yuk are only connected
    by muscle, so they're easy to detach.
[18:18] Gu
    This is yours.
[18:19] Gu
    Really?
[18:23] Gu
    I can see you were born an Ani Matagi.
[18:25] Gu
    You know just how it's done.
[18:27] Gu
    Why was this tiny yuk all alone?
[18:31] Gu
    It's a male, so it must've
    just left its parents.
[18:33] Gu
    Or maybe they died.
[18:35] Gu
    Then it's just like me, huh?
[18:40] Gu
    His siblings and parents all died.
[18:42] Gu
    All the old people in the
    village take care of him.
[18:45] Gu
    His real name is...
[18:47] Gu
    Your parents gave it to you
    before they died, right?
[18:50] Gu
    Cikapasi!
[18:51] Gu
    Great name, huh?
[18:52] Gu
    Yeah.
[18:53] Gu
    Cikapasi? What does that mean?
[18:56] Gu
    "He who makes birds fly."
[18:58] Gu
    But it also means "to get an erection."
[19:03] Gu
    In other words, "boner"?
[19:05] Gu
    You really do have a good name, Cikapasi.
[19:10] Gu
    It's a great name, "boner."
[19:19] Gu
    Ayapo!
[19:20] Gu
    Anpene!
[19:21] Gu
    Iyainuman.
[19:25] Gu
    Oh, look at this wonderful Nispa.
[19:29] Gu
    I love men with scars on their faces.
[19:33] Gu
    My name is Inkarmat.
[19:36] Gu
    It means "the woman who sees."
[19:38] Gu
    You there, the handsome Nispa.
[19:40] Gu
    Shall I tell your fortune?
[19:41] Gu
    No, I'll pass.
[19:46] Gu
    Did you lose your little sister?
[19:50] Gu
    The thought came to me as I looked at you.
[19:55] Gu
    I'm very sorry.
[19:58] Gu
    Who are you?
[20:01] Gu
    I came here in search of someone.
[20:04] Gu
    Is there a girl with blue
    eyes who lives in this kotan?
[20:08] Gu
    My Sirakki Kamuy says
    this is the right place.
[20:13] Gu
    We met in Naganuma.
[20:15] Gu
    She said she was traveling
    to accomplish a certain goal.
[20:18] Gu
    She had three Nispa with her.
[20:24] Gu
    One of them is going to betray Asirpa-san.
[20:31] Gu
    He's a very dangerous man.
[20:33] Gu
    If he's not stopped,
    her life may be in danger.
[20:46] Gu
    I'll bring back Asirpa safely. I promise.
[20:50] Gu
    Osoma, you have something to give him, right?
[20:58] Gu
    She spent a long time trying to make
    you tekunpe, with Huci's help.
[21:02] Gu
    She only managed to get
    one done in time, though.
[21:04] Gu
    When an Ainu woman's in love, she makes
    a pair of tekunpe and gives them to her man.
[21:10] Gu
    Thank you, Osoma.
[21:11] Gu
    I promise I'll come back.
[21:13] Gu
    So make me the other one.
SIGN    Gods, protect Tanigaki Nispa!
[21:24] Gu
    Shall I tell your fortune to
     help find where Asirpa-san is?
[21:28] Gu
    No. I'm not going because I
    believe your fortune-telling.
[21:33] Gu
    The problem is that the villagers do.
[21:37] Gu
    The Sirakki Kamuy tells me that
    good fortune lies to the east.
[21:41] Gu
    Let us go, Tanigaki Nispa.
[21:44] Gu
    Why are you coming with me?
[21:46] Gu
    I have a weakness for men
    with scars on their faces.
[21:53] (Flashback) Gu
    I see.
[21:56] (Flashback) Gu
    Use the man named Tanigaki
    who's at the kotan.
[22:00] (Flashback) Gu
    His leg should have healed by now.
SIGN    Next Time
    Fakes
[23:36] Narr
    Next Time: "Fakes."
