[00:01] Nikaidou
    It's gone! It's gone!
    I can't find it anywhere!
[00:06] Tsukishima
    What is it, Nikaidou?
[00:08] Nikaidou
    When I woke up, my false hand was missing!
[00:14] Koito
    Somebody must've hidden it.
[00:17] Koito
    'cause you always make so much noise with it.
[00:19] Inkarmat
    Shall I use my ueinkar to find it?
[00:24] Nikaidou
    Please do, Inkarmat-san!
[00:31] Inkarmat
    I feel a strong sensation coming
    from the direction of Koito Nispa.
[00:37] Nikaidou
    There it is!
[00:39] Koito
    Amazing! How could you tell?
[00:42] Koito
    It's such a mystery!
[00:43] Tsukishima
    Even I figured that one out.
[00:46] Koito
    Inkarmat is amazing, Tsukishima!
[00:50] Koito
    She answers any question
    you give her. It's scary.
[00:54] Tsukishima
    What are you biting?
[00:56] Koito
    An ikema root, to ward off evil.
[00:58] Koito
    It cost one yen and 20 sen.
[01:01] Tsukishima
    Hey, no stealing money from Lieutenant Koito.
[01:05] Koito
    You don't believe me at all, do you?
[01:07] Koito
    Fine, why don't you have
    her do her magic on you?
[01:12] Tsukishima
    I'll pass.
[01:14] Inkarmat
    Shall I see what I can see, Tsukishima Nispa?
[01:17] Inkarmat
    Is there anything you're seeking
     but unable to find?
[01:26] Tsukishima
    Don't think you can win me over.
[01:32] Inkarmat
    Am I right to think that
    Tanigaki Nispa can't come here,
[01:33] Inkarmat
    even though he must be back in Hokkaido,
[01:36] Inkarmat
    because I'm a hostage?
[01:41] Nikaidou
    Huh? The chopstick's not coming out!
[01:44] Nikaidou
    There's something inside?
[01:47] Koito
    That's youkan.

[03:28] Tanigaki
    I'm not the kind of cold-blooded
    man who could kill Sugimoto Saichi.
[03:35] Tanigaki
    Is it even possible to kill someone
    who can survive being shot in the head?
[03:41] Tanigaki
    Even if I kill him, Asirpa's not
    going to do as I say.
[03:45] Tanigaki
    No, Lieutenant Tsurumi would do whatever it
    took to get the information out of her.
[03:52] Tanigaki
    What I'm doing will bring misery to Asirpa.
[03:57] Tanigaki
    Would Huci be happy if I brought
    her granddaughter home as an empty,
[04:01] Tanigaki
    broken shell of herself?
[04:04] Tanigaki
    I could just pretend to search for her
    until the hunt for the gold is over.
[04:11] Tanigaki
    But it may take years...
[04:15] Tanigaki
    I wouldn't be able to see Inkarmat,
    or my newborn child, for that whole time...
[04:21] Tanigaki
    Does that mean my only choice is to find her?
[04:28] Ienaga
    It's been nine months, right?
[04:30] Ienaga
    It could happen at any time.
[04:33] Ienaga
    Those mysterious curves your body has now...
[04:36] Ienaga
    Even if I ate you, I could
    never replicate them.
[04:41] Ienaga
    Looking at you reminds me of my
    mother when she was pregnant.
[04:46] Ienaga
    She was what I sought.
[04:50] Ienaga
    In my mind, with her
    belly swollen, she was perfect.
[04:54] Ienaga
    And I thought that she would be perfect,
    like Mother Mary, when she held her child.
[05:00] Ienaga
    But she slipped on a staircase
    and had a miscarriage.
[05:06] Ienaga
    I want to help you give birth to your child.
[05:11] Inkarmat
    That would make me very happy.
[05:13] Inkarmat
    I owe you my life.
[05:16] Ienaga
    Give me the placenta, then!
[05:18] Ienaga
    I've heard it's nutritious!
[05:43] Ienaga
    I knew you'd come.
[05:49] Tanigaki
    If I ask the people in the hospital
[05:52] Tanigaki
    where Inkarmat was moved,
    Tsurumi will find out I came here.
[05:59] Tanigaki
    I know I shouldn't try to look for her
    if it means putting her in danger.

    A perv with a big butt and big boobs,

    who looks like a hairy bear
    and lurks around the hospital.
[06:27] (Flashback) Woman
    You're Tanigaki-san, right?
[06:29] (Flashback) Woman
    My dad's in that hospital
    so I go in and out a lot.

    Inkarmat-san asked me to give
    this postcard to the pervy bear.

    I failed to bring Asirpa back to Huci.
[06:51] Woman
    I'm useless, which means I have to run.
[06:55] Woman
    But I wanted to at least be with you and our child.
[06:59] Woman
    Even if it put us all in danger.
[07:01] Inkarmat
    I left that postcard for you
    hoping you'd come here.
[07:06] Inkarmat
    I'm ready for danger.
[07:08] Tanigaki
    Sergeant Tsukishima, your guard,
     went to the bath.
[07:11] Tanigaki
    He takes long baths, but hurry and get ready.
[07:21] Tanigaki
    Quiet!
[07:26] Tanigaki
    The sound of a soldier's hobnailed boots!
[07:32] Tanigaki
    From the second floor...
[08:14] Tsukishima
    If you're here, that means you've decided
    to disobey Lieutenant Tsurumi's orders, right?
[08:21] Tsukishima
    This was your choice, Private Tanigaki.
[08:25] Tanigaki
    Inkarmat, get off me!
[08:28] Inkarmat
    If this is your idea of justice,
    Tsukishima Nispa, then kill me first.
[08:36] Ienaga
    Run.
[09:03] Ienaga
    He won't be able to move for two hours.
[09:05] Ienaga
    Get as far away from here as possible.
[09:09] Ienaga
    You're wondering why a self-interested
    murderer like myself would do this?
[09:16] Ienaga
    Inkarmat-san is about to become perfect.
[09:21] Ienaga
    Please don't miss your chance
    to see that, Tanigaki-san.
[09:25] Inkarmat
    Ienaga-san...
[09:28] Tanigaki
    Let's go.
[09:54] Koito
    Go.
[10:05] Tanigaki
    Why would Lieutenant Koito do that?
[10:08] Inkarmat
    Maybe he let us go because I told his
    fortune a lot when he was stuck in bed.
[10:14] Tanigaki
    That wouldn't be enough for him to do that...
[10:17] Tanigaki
    Not the Koito I know...
[10:32] Tanigaki
    Are you okay, Inkarmat?
[10:34] Tanigaki
    Are you cold?
[10:37] Tanigaki
    What's wrong? Does your stomach hurt?
[10:40] Inkarmat
    Being on horseback...
[10:42] Tanigaki
    I'm sorry, I was in too much of a hurry.
[10:45] Tanigaki
    We've made it out of town.
[10:47] Tanigaki
    Let's rest in that abandoned
    house for a while.
[10:53] Tanigaki
    Wait. I'll start a fire.
[10:57] Inkarmat
    Tanigaki Nispa, your head is bleeding.
[11:04] Tanigaki
    There we go.
[11:05] Tanigaki
    Let's rest a little more, then get going.
[11:08] Tanigaki
    We need to get away.
[11:11] Inkarmat
    Your leg is bleeding so badly.
[11:13] Tanigaki
    Those last two shots must've grazed me.
[11:16] Tanigaki
    I was so desperate to
    get away, I didn't notice.
[11:22] Tanigaki
    This is bad!
[11:30] Tanigaki
    Inkarmat, head out from the back!
[11:32] Tanigaki
    Hurry! Hurry!
[12:01] Inkarmat
    Tanigaki Nispa!
[12:16] Tanigaki
    Are you okay, Inkarmat?
[12:18] Tanigaki
    It's morning.
[12:19] Tanigaki
    But with my rifle he
    can't risk getting close.
[12:23] Tanigaki
    We can get away from him if
    we make it to the mountains.
[12:25] Tanigaki
    I know the mountains better than he does!
[12:37] Tanigaki
    What's wrong? Is he after us?
[12:42] Inkarmat
    I think my water broke.
[12:49] Tanigaki
    I'm sorry to do this after
    all you've done for us.
[12:51] Tanigaki
    Forgive me.
[13:12] Tsukishima
    So he made me chase the blood from his horse?
[13:15] Tanigaki
    Hang in there, Inkarmat!
[13:17] Tanigaki
    Hang in there!
[13:19] Tanigaki
    It's okay! I'm with you! You can do this!
[13:22] Tanigaki
    It'll all be fine!
[13:46] Tanigaki
    Huci... I'm sorry... I'm back.

    Don't worry.
[14:07] Osoma's Mom
    Every night, my husband gets him drunk.
[14:11] Osoma's Mom
    Even if Osoma steps on
    his face, he won't wake up!
[14:21] Tanigaki
    What's Huci doing?
[14:22] Osoma's Mom
    She's touching to see if it's a boy or girl.
[14:25] Osoma's Mom
    It's said that if it's a boy,
    you must deliver it face-down,
[14:28] Osoma's Mom
    and a girl it must be face-up,
    or they won't live a long life.
[14:32] Tanigaki
    You can tell which it is
    by touching their stomach?
[14:35] Osoma's Mom
    Supposedly the size of
    the hip bones tells you.
[14:38] Osoma's Mom
    Only a very few can do it, even then.
[14:41] Osoma's Mom
    She says that her personal god,
    who dwells just behind her neck, tells her.
[14:45] Osoma's Mom
    Huci has been helping women
    give birth since she was 19.
[14:48] Osoma's Mom
    She's a veteran ikoinkarmat, or midwife.
[14:53] Osoma's Mom
    She helped give birth to Asirpa, too.
[14:57] Tanigaki
    Okay, I'll leave her to you.
[15:00] Tanigaki
    Sergeant Tsukishima knows about this kotan.
[15:04] Tanigaki
    He'll realize we're here and come after us.
[15:07] Tanigaki
    I'll fight him in the mountains.
[15:08] Inkarmat
    No, Tanigaki Nispa.
[15:10] Inkarmat
    Don't fight him.
[15:12] Tanigaki
    I'll come back. I'm immortal.
[15:15] Inkarmat
    You're not immortal. Run!
[15:25] Osoma's Mom
    What?!
[15:26] Inkarmat
    Stop!
[15:30] Tanigaki
    Just kill me! Don't hurt
    Inkarmat or the others!
[15:34] Tsukishima
    Private Tanigaki, you started making
    the wrong choice a long time ago.
[15:40] Tsukishima
    When you met her and the old woman
    instead of coming back to the unit.
[15:45] Koito
    Tsukishima!
[15:48] Koito
    Enough, Tsukishima!
[15:49] Koito
    Stop it!
[15:50] Tsukishima
    Were you following me to
    see if they could get away?
[15:56] Koito
    What's the point of killing the two of them?
[15:59] Koito
    We have other ways to find Asirpa
    besides relying on Tanigaki!
[16:04] Koito
    If someone wants to run, let them!
[16:06] Tsukishima
    You need to follow through on
    a threat or it's worthless.
[16:09] Tsukishima
    The others might start getting ideas.
[16:12] Tsukishima
    I told you I'd kill you if you interfered.
[16:16] Tsukishima
    Does this mean you're
    betraying Lieutenant Tsurumi, too?
[16:20] Tsukishima
    Which are you, Lieutenant Koito?
[16:23] Tsukishima
    Are you one of the traitors, suspicious
    that Lieutenant Tsurumi used both
[16:28] Tsukishima
    you and your father?
[16:32] Koito
    Put your gun down.
[16:33] Koito
    That's an order as your superior officer.
[16:35] Koito
    I'm prepared to watch
    both you and Lieutenant Tsurumi
[16:39] Koito
    with my own eyes until the end of all this.
[16:43] Koito
    Tsukishima, you said that the people
    who follow Lieutenant Tsurumi will be saved,
[16:48] Koito
    and that you saw nothing wrong with that.
[16:52] Koito
    I agree.
[16:54] Koito
    Even if both my father and I were
    used for that purpose, I don't care.
[17:01] Koito
    But if Lieutenant Tsurumi has a
    true goal, then I want to see what it is!
[17:07] Koito
    If there's no justice at the end of
    it that I can be satisfied with...
[17:12] Koito
    The guilt and regret will kill me.
[17:15] Koito
    And that's why we can't kill those two!
[17:19] Tsukishima
    It's too late for me!
[17:22] Tsukishima
    I've killed so many people!
[17:24] Tsukishima
    I've used them and sent them to their deaths!
[17:26] Koito
    It's not too late!
[17:29] Tsukishima
    I've given up on what was truly important...
[17:33] Tsukishima
    and thrown it away.
[17:36] Tsukishima
    All I have left is doing my job.
[17:40] Koito
    Does that sternness come from bearing the
    weight of what you threw away, Tsukishima?!
[17:54] Tsukishima
    Inkarmat...
[18:01] Tsukishima
    She was...
[18:10] Tanigaki
    Inkarmat!
[18:12] Osoma's Mom
    The baby's about to come out! Everyone help!
[18:15] Osoma's Mom
    You go heat up a lot of water!
[18:18] Osoma's Mom
    You go gather up a bunch
    of straw from nearby!
[18:21] Osoma's Mom
    And you watch him!
[18:27] Osoma's Mom
    You three!
[18:29] Osoma's Mom
    Go get these from the other houses.

    Put the rasupakap in the hot water.
[18:39] Osoma's Mom
    That creates a disinfectant
    that helps lubricate the birth canal.
[18:43] Osoma's Mom
    Hang this tar strap from the beam above!
[18:46] Osoma's Mom
    She'll pull on it to brace herself!
[18:48] Osoma's Mom
    Put the straw on the left side of the
    fireplace and put some old rags on it.

    Hold the baby in your arms, Tanigaki Nispa.
[20:25] Tanigaki
    He's got a huge dick!
[20:27] Inkarmat
    That's what's left of the umbilical cord.
[20:31] Tanigaki
    So I've got a daughter...?
[20:36] Tsukishima
    Hey, wake up.
[20:41] Koito
    I'll keep this a secret from Lieutenant Tsurumi.
[20:44] Koito
    Spend a week in town to cool your head.
[20:47] Koito
    And then continue to report to him
    that nothing unusual has happened.

[21:02] Tanigaki
    Osoma... How've you been?

    Osoma!
[21:14] Tsukishima
    Lieutenant Koito...
[21:16] Tsukishima
    Did you really mean that?
[21:19] Tsukishima
    Or were you simply trying to
    convince me to put down the gun?
[21:23] Koito
    Whichever you prefer.
[21:26] Koito
    But it just seems to me that
[21:27] Koito
    Lieutenant Tsurumi isn't the kind of man whose
     goal is something as petty as lust for power,
[21:33] Koito
    or a desire to sacrifice everyone
    else to enrich himself.
[21:41] Koito
    Do you have no idea what
    his real objective is?
[21:46] Tsukishima
    He may not have one.
[21:51] Tsukishima
    He may truly want to properly bury his
    comrades and ensure prosperity for Japan.
[22:03] Tsukishima
    Finger bones...
[22:05] Tsukishima
    Have you ever seen those finger bones?
[22:08] Koito
    Whose finger bones?
[22:11] Tsukishima
    Never mind. It might not be relevant.
[22:16] Koito
    Fighting and dying for his comrades is
    the most noble thing a soldier can do.
[22:22] Koito
    Right, Tsukishima?
[22:24] Koito
    Your stance toward
    Lieutenant Tsurumi isn't healthy.
[22:29] Koito
    I'm going to believe in the best in him.
[22:32] Koito
    So you believe in me and follow me!
[22:42] Koito
    This is what I mean, Tsukishima!
[22:43] Tsukishima
    I don't understand.
