[00:03] Gu
    Twenty thousand kans.
[00:05] Gu
    A thousand times the amount the
    other prisoners were told of.
[00:09] Gu
    And it's hidden somewhere in Hokkaido.
[00:14] Gu
    He and I shared a goal,
[00:17] Gu
    so he told me the true amount.
[00:22] Gu
    It's only a third of the budget
    of the Japanese government,
[00:26] Gu
    but if we can get it out of the country,
     it becomes worth vastly more.
[00:30] Gu
    I'm starting to think I really
     can create a new nation.
SIGN    Golden Kamuy
[02:21] S
    What? What?
[02:23] Gu
    A hand grenade.
[02:25] Gu
    Was that an ambush?
[02:30] Gu
    That's him!
[02:33] S
    Somebody save me!
[02:36] Gu
    Ushiyama!
[02:38] Gu
    What the hell are you doing here?
[02:39] Gu
    And starting a fight with
    the soldiers, too.
[02:43] Gu
    You were supposed to wait
    in front of that brothel!
[02:46] Gu
    Shiraishi's right...
[02:48] Gu
    Shut up and get on.
[02:49] Gu
    We're leaving!
[02:57] Gu
    The gunshots and explosions
    came from up ahead.
[02:59] Gu
    Get the soldiers together.
[03:01] Gu
    We need horses, too.
[03:03] Gu
    What's all that fuss?
[03:05] Gu
    Looks like they're having
    a gunfight over there.
[03:11] Gu
    What's going on?
[03:18] Gu
    Well?
[03:20] Gu
    It worked, mister!
[03:24] Gu
    We shot one.
SIGN    Episode Eight
    Eyes of a Murderer
[03:25] Gu
    Two fled by horse, and we're pursuing them.
[03:28] Gu
    We suspect one of the ones that
    fled might be a tattooed prisoner.
[03:33] Gu
    He has no tattoos.
[03:35] Gu
    So the tip-off was a trap?
[03:37] Gu
    Did they intend to lure us
    out and steal our tattoos?
[03:42] Gu
    And they were willing to
    use dynamite to do it...
[03:44] Gu
    Lt. Tsurumi!
[03:46] Gu
    The explosions we heard earlier seem
    to have come from Sakaimachi Street.
[03:52] Gu
    The financial district?
[03:54] Gu
    This whole thing was a decoy...
[03:58] Gu
    They're after the bank!
[04:11] Gu
    We're leaving in one minute!
[04:14] Gu
    We found it, Hijikata-san.
[04:16] Gu
    This is it.
[04:18] Gu
    The tip that it was here
    seems to have been correct.
[04:25] Gu
    This blunt old thing just
    doesn't feel right...
[04:31] Gu
    After all this time, it's mine once more!
[04:45] Gu
    So the branch manager was threatened
    into opening the vault himself?
[04:49] Gu
    Then that explosion...
[04:53] Gu
    What's on the second floor?
[04:54] Gu
    Safe deposit vaults for valuables.
[04:57] Gu
    But to get inside, you need a key
    from the bank and the owner.
[05:01] Gu
    They didn't come up here.
[05:05] Gu
    The walls are thin.
[05:07] Gu
    The explosion was an attempt
    to get inside from the back.
[05:10] Gu
    They got the money and achieved their goal.
[05:14] Gu
    What did they want so badly that they
     were willing to split into two groups?
[05:17] Gu
    There's nothing in those
    vaults but bonds, jewels,
[05:21] Gu
    as well as works of art, like pictures
    and katanas that the bank owns.
[05:25] Gu
    Katanas?
[05:34] Gu
    Izuminokami Kanesada.
[05:44] Gu
    Hijikata Toshizou!
[05:52] Gu
    That's the soldier called Tsurumi, right?
[05:55] Gu
    I like that face. Very brave.
[06:01] Gu
    He even stole the horse I borrowed.
[06:07] Gu
    A ghost from the last
    days of the shogunate...
[06:09] Gu
    No, an evil spirit whose hatred
    still lives in this world.
[06:17] Gu
    Hey, ladies.
[06:20] Gu
    Sounds like you had a rough day.
[06:22] Gi
    And you look like a mess.
[06:24] Gu
    Yeah.
[06:25] Gu
    Anyway, about that favor I asked for...
[06:28] Gu
    You saw a man with tattoos, right?
[06:31] Gi
    Yeah, we swapped his with a new one.
[06:35] Gu
    Thanks, missy.
[06:36] Gu
    Buy yourself something nice.
[06:38] Gi
    But what do you want something like that for?
[06:41] Gi
    Now Retar will find him even if
    he hides under an outhouse.
[06:48] A
    Lend you Retar?
[06:50] Gu
    Please!
[06:51] Gu
    I want to be friends with that wolf!
[06:54] S
    You want to sell Retar's pelt
     for drinking money, right?
[06:58] Gu
    No way!
[07:00] A
    Retar isn't mine. I can't lend him to you.
[07:03] A
    And I'm never getting close to Retar again.
[07:07] A
    I don't want to get the wolves involved.
[07:10] A
    I don't know what you're planning,
[07:12] A
    but leave them alone.
[07:14] ---
    Hey, I feel something.
[07:16] S
    There's something soft there!
[07:17] A
    Okay, Sugimoto!
[07:19] A
    Spin the fur twister until it
    stops rotating, and then pull it out!
[07:23] S
    Got it!
[07:25] Gu
    It's so cute!
[07:26] A
    It's nice and plump!
[07:29] S
    Shiraishi, it's going to fall off.
[07:30] S
    Grab it, now!
[07:31] Gu
    It's not moving.
[07:33] Gu
    Think it's dead?
[07:34] A
    Tanuki play dead.
[07:36] A
    Be careful, Shiraishi.
[07:38] A
    Don't let it bite your head.
[07:40] A
    Make sure it doesn't bite your head!
[07:42] Gu
    Ow!
[07:44] Gu
    It got away!
[07:47] S
    You're useless, Shiraishi!
[07:50] A
    You really are, Shiraishi.
[07:53] S
    Ryuu!
[07:54] S
    You followed us?
[07:57] S
    Good boy, good boy!
[07:59] S
    You were trained by none other
    than Nihei Tetsuzou, after all.
[08:02] S
    Good boy! Don't bite me.
[08:05] Gu
    Listen, Ryuu.
[08:07] Gu
    This is the scent.
[08:08] Gu
    Find this scent!
[08:11] Gu
    Just you wait...
[08:13] Gu
    I won't let you call me useless anymore.
[08:18] Gu
    What's wrong?
[08:25] Gu
    Well done, Ryuu.
[08:27] Gu
    That's his scent you were looking for.
[08:40] Gu
    Another body was found on the Shakotan coast.
[08:44] Gu
    The head was split open with an axe.
[08:47] Gu
    The last one had their
    throat slit with a blade.
[08:50] Gu
    The victim was a herring fisherman.
[08:53] Gu
    Was it that man?
[08:55] Gu
    Henmi Kazuo...
[08:58] Gu
    A murderer with over a hundred victims
[09:00] Gu
    who's wandered the whole
    length and breadth of Japan.
[09:03] Gu
    I've heard him boasting about it.
[09:06] Gu
    He bragged that the trick to not being caught
[09:08] Gu
    is to keep moving and
    never stay in one place.
[09:12] Gu
    A guy like Nihei Tetsuzou is a hassle,
[09:15] Gu
    but predicting Henmi Kazuo's
    actions is impossible.
[09:23] Gu
    As for the rest...
[09:29] Gu
    Stupid dog!
[09:40] Gu
    You dislocated your own joint to escape?
[09:43] Gu
    I'll skewer your eyeball!
[09:47] Gu
    Ow!
[09:50] Gu
    No fair using weapons, Shiraishi-kun...
[09:55] Gu
    Don't kill him, Ushiyama.
[10:01] Gu
    I'm amazed you found this place, Shiraishi.
[10:04] Gu
    Hijikata Toshizou!
[10:13] Gu
    He looks like an idiot,
[10:15] Gu
    but he's a monster you
    shouldn't underestimate.
[10:21] Gu
    What will you do, Shiraishi?
[10:25] Gu
    We're willing to leave you alive, for now,
[10:28] Gu
    if you let us copy your tattoo.
[10:30] Gu
    The old man and me are working together.
[10:33] Gu
    Did you seriously plan on
    fighting the 7th by yourself?
[10:38] Gu
    You're not working alone, are you?
[10:43] Gu
    There's also a man called Immortal Sugimoto.
[10:46] Gu
    Immortal Sugimoto?
[10:49] Gu
    Now there's an interesting nickname.
[10:51] Gu
    Is he your partner?
[10:53] Gu
    Yeah...
[10:54] Gu
    Well, more like he works for me.
[10:57] Gu
    He's strong, but really moody.
[11:00] Gu
    He doesn't trust us prisoners.
[11:03] Gu
    There's no need to tell him about us.
[11:06] Gu
    Just make good use of your bodyguard.
[11:10] Gu
    By the way...
[11:13] Gu
    Do you and Sugimoto have
    even a single tattoo?
[11:29] Gu
    Nope!
[11:33] Gu
    Choose whether we fight
     each other, or work together.
[11:38] Gu
    I'm a pacifist, you see...
[11:41] Gu
    Then why don't you start...
[11:44] Gu
    ...with the skin of Henmi Kazuo?
SIGN    Golden Kamuy
[11:54] S
    The yanshuu?
[11:56] Gu
    Seasonal laborers who are
    hired to fish for herring.
[11:59] Gu
    At this time of year, people
    come together from all over.
[12:02] Gu
    Perfect place for an escaped
    convict to hide, right?
[12:05] Gu
    Lately, some of the yanshuu
    are turning up dead.
[12:09] Gu
    The killer's a man named Henmi.
[12:12] S
    How are you so sure?
[12:13] Gu
    The same character was found
    carved into all the bodies' backs.
[12:17] S
    Their backs?
[12:20] Gu
    They say killing is no different
    than breathing for him.
[12:24] Gu
    He looks like just a normal man, though.
[12:29] (Flashback) Gu
    I had a brother, but one day he was
[12:32] (Flashback) Gu
    eaten by a big boar on the
    mountain near our home.
[12:36] (Flashback) Gu
    All I did was hide and watch
    while he cried and screamed.
[12:42] (Flashback) Gu
    When I think about how he struggled
    so hard, but it accomplished nothing,
[12:45] (Flashback) Gu
    how he was killed so horribly by a monster
    he couldn't even communicate with...
[12:52] (Flashback) Gu
    When I think about how much fear
    and pain he must've felt...
[12:55] (Flashback) Gu
    When I think about how the light faded
    from his eyes as despair took over...
[13:00] (Flashback) Gu
    When I remember those eyes...
[13:02] (Flashback) Gu
    It makes me want to kill someone. Anyone.
[13:06] Gu
    His tattoo had the character for "eye" in it.
SIGN    Eye
[13:10] S
    "Eye," huh?
[13:12] ---
    I see.
[13:14] A
    I'm worried that prisoner
    might go after my uncle.
[13:18] A
    He and the other men are
    at the coast right now.
[13:21] A
    They're trying to catch the whales
    that are following the herring.
[13:24] S
    Whales?
[13:25] A
    Okay, Sugimoto.
[13:27] A
    Let's go to the coast,
[13:28] A
    and eat some whale!
[13:29] S
    Asirpa-san?
[13:33] S
    You said this prisoner called Henmi
    had no interest in the gold?
[13:38] Gu
    Yeah.
[13:39] S
    Does that make any sense?
[13:40] S
    Why would a guy who's cautiously
    moving to avoid being arrested
[13:44] S
    leave clues that would
    lure out other prisoners?
[13:49] Gu
    I don't even want to think about
    what's going on in Henmi's head.
[13:53] S
    Well, if he's that bad a guy,
[13:56] S
    I won't have to feel bad
    about stripping off his skin.
[14:08] Gu
    There are large herring
    fishing zones off the coast.
[14:13] Gu
    When they bring the fish back to land,
     they process them right there.
[14:17] Gu
    Henmi Kazuo might be trying to blend
    in with the workers there.
[14:23] Gu
    Asirpa!
[14:26] Gu
    Achapo!
[14:27] Gu
    Great timing! Hurry, this way!
[14:31] Gu
    Hurry, hurry!
[14:35] Gu
    Row harder, Sugimoto!
[14:38] Gu
    Why do we have to do this?
[14:41] Gu
    Another kotan's boat found a
    whale and hit it with a harpoon,
[14:44] Gu
    but it's been dragging them
    along the coast since yesterday!
[14:47] Gu
    Let's help them, Sugimoto!
[14:52] Gu
    That's the boat! We made it!
[14:54] Gu
    Look! A hunpe!
[15:07] Gu
    The neck, Sugimoto!
[15:08] Gu
    The skin around the neck is softer!
[15:11] S
    I can't even tell where the neck is!
[15:17] S
    Okay, got it!
[15:26] Gu
    Don't get knocked over!
[15:28] Gu
    Even this time of year, the sea's
     cold enough to kill you!
[15:35] Gu
    Crap! The whale's heading for them!
[15:38] Gu
    Hey! It's going to ram you! Be careful!
[15:41] ---
    
[15:42] Gu
    That kid's yelling something.
[15:44] ---
    
[15:57] Gu
    One of the fishermen fell in!
[16:02] Gu
    Grab on!
[16:04] S
    Let's help him!
[16:06] S
    That ship's big enough that it'll
    take time to get back to the coast.
[16:09] S
    We need to get him next
    to a fire to warm him up,
[16:11] S
    or he'll die from hypothermia!
[16:12] Gu
    Got it! I'll cut the nets!
[16:14] S
    Shiraishi, we're counting on you!
[16:16] S
    Bring us back some whale!
[16:26] S
    Hang in there!
[16:27] S
    Hang on tight!
[16:32] Gu
    Hurry! There should be fires on the
    coast to help process the fish!
[16:38] Gu
    Thank you...
[16:39] Gu
    Thank you...
[16:42] Gu
    I don't want to die because
    I fell into the sea...
[16:49] Gu
    It would be so boring.
[16:56] Gu
    It's warm.
[16:57] Gu
    I'm saved!
[16:58] S
    You should warm your back.
[17:01] S
    Take off your wet clothes, too.
[17:03] Gu
    Take off my clothes? Here?
[17:06] Gu
    That was definitely Shiraishi
    Yoshitake-san back there.
[17:10] Gu
    This soldier is probably with him.
SIGN    Eye
[17:13] Gu
    They must've taken the bait I left and come
    here in search of a tattooed prisoner.
[17:20] Gu
    Um, it would embarrass me to take
    off all my clothes while you watch.
[17:24] S
    Embarrass you?
[17:28] Gu
    Crap.
[17:30] Gu
    That just made him more suspicious.
[17:33] S
    Want a blanket?
[17:36] Gu
    He's nice!
[17:38] Gu
    He's so nice.
[17:40] Gu
    Am I wrong?
[17:41] Gu
    Maybe he didn't come to kill a prisoner?
[17:46] Gu
    But he has the same scent as me...
[17:51] Gu
    The scent of a killer.
[17:53] Gu
    Would he be willing to
    kill me in a horrible way,
[17:58] Gu
    like that beast that ate my brother?
[18:02] Gu
    Oh... maybe I should just show him...
[18:09] Gu
    No, no.
[18:10] Gu
    I can't show him my tattoos.
[18:12] Gu
    That's no different than suicide.
[18:15] Gu
    I need to struggle with all my strength.
[18:19] Gu
    Just like my brother...
[18:22] Gu
    Um... I'm fine, thanks to you.
[18:26] Gu
    I have some clothes back at the dorm...
[18:32] Gu
    I want to know more about him.
[18:42] Gu
    Those are some rare tattoos you've got there.
[18:46] Gu
    What are you doing here
    in the middle of the day?
[18:50] Gu
    My cold got worse.
[19:01] S
    Excuse me.
[19:02] Gu
    Yes?
[19:04] Gu
    What is it?
[19:05] S
    Are people other than fishermen
    allowed to stay at the dorms here?
[19:10] S
    Could I work here enough to pay for lodging?
[19:15] Gu
    I'll ask the boss later.
[19:22] Gu
    This herring is gutted at the
    fishing grounds and dried.
[19:27] Gu
    Herring rots, so it's how we preserve the
    fish to send it back to the mainland.
[19:32] Gu
    The leftover parts of the fish
    are stripped of their oil
[19:34] Gu
    and then used as high-quality fertilizer.
[19:36] Gu
    It's a very popular product.
[19:40] Gu
    After they're squeezed for oil,
    you end up with these blocks,
[19:42] Gu
    which need to be chipped into
    tiny parts so they can dry.
[19:47] Gu
    You use this knife to cut apart the blocks.
[19:52] Gu
    It's a big knife, right?
[19:54] Gu
    Give it a go.
[19:58] S
    I just need to cut this?
[20:00] Gu
    You look so cool!
[20:08] S
    Like this?
[20:10] A
    Sugimoto.
[20:11] A
    We should go after Shiraishi.
[20:14] A
    We don't know what our
    enemy's face looks like.
[20:17] A
    There's no sense in staying here alone.
[20:18] S
    True...
[20:19] S
    Asirpa-san, let's go.
[20:21] Gu
    Um, how about at least staying for a meal?
[20:24] Gu
    It's not much considering
    you saved my life...
[20:27] Gu
    But some warm white rice...
[20:30] A
    White rice?!
[20:32] Gu
    Let's eat.
[20:35] Gu
    Herring's so good!
[20:37] Gu
    It's got just the right
    amount of sourness to go
[20:39] Gu
    with these sweet pickled vegetables...
[20:40] A
    And white rice is a luxury!
[20:43] S
    This combination is hinna!
[20:47] A
    Hinna, hinna!
[20:53] A
    I'm off to osoma.
[20:55] S
    Asirpa, call it a bathroom.
[20:59] Gu
    By the way, were you at Port Arthur?
[21:03] Gu
    How was it?
[21:05] S
    How was what?
[21:07] Gu
    Did you kill anyone?
[21:10] S
    Well, it was a war.
[21:13] Gu
    Do you remember how many you killed?
[21:17] S
    I can't ever forget their faces.
[21:19] S
    The ones I killed up close
    enough to see, anyway.
[21:23] Gu
    Just like me...
[21:26] Gu
    Is it because of guilt that you can't forget?
[21:30] S
    Remembering them, at least,
    is my way of atonement.
[21:34] S
    I had a reason I had to kill them.
[21:39] S
    In exchange...
[21:41] S
    When I die, I don't think for a
    second I'm going to go peacefully.
[21:49] Gu
    I want him to kill me so badly.
[21:52] Gu
    Okay, I'll try to kill him!
[21:55] Gu
    Because if he's what I've been seeking...
[21:59] Gu
    There's no way someone
    like me really could kill him!
SIGN    Next Time
    Gleaming
[23:36] Gu
    Next time: "Gleaming."
