Hakuoki ~Demon of the Fleeting Blossom~ (Drama)
The time is one of upheaval, at the end of Bakumatsu period. A young woman named Yukimura Chizuru travels from Edo to the capital, Kyoto, in search of her missing father. Suddenly, the Rasetsu (inhuman beings committing terrible deeds) appear before her, trailed by the Shinsengumi, a unit of warriors lead by Hijikata Toshizou. The Shinsengumi deal with the Rasetsu before them in an instant. Chizuru, however, doesn't know that the fate of her father, Koudou, is inextricably bound to both the Rasetsu and the Shinsengumi. Before long, Chizuru puts herself in the Shinsengumi's care as she continues the search for her father.

Excuse me!

I was hoping to ask a question...

He's a doctor who practices

How much?

You came here because you know
what Yukimura Kodo has done, right?
[05:49] Chizuru
My father was supposed to have come
to the capital for work!
[05:53] Chizuru
But... this summer, his letters
suddenly stopped coming.
[05:57] Chizuru
So I've come from Edo to...

Huh? You're not going to kill her?

[07:26] Okita
I'm joking.
[07:28] Hijikata

Yes.
[07:42] Toudou

That same Kodo-san

[08:24] Hijikata
and soon after, his relative appeared.
[08:28] Hijikata
Don't you think it's a little too much

Yukimura Kodo
[08:39] Hijikata
Kodo-san has betrayed us
and hidden himself.
[08:43] Hijikata
And to sound out our movements,
he's sent her as a spy...
[08:46] Kondou
When you consider the value of the rasetsu,
[08:50] Kondou
it looked like he had been kidnapped.

She doesn't seem like

[08:59] Hijikata

Please allow me to search with you.
[09:54] Hijikata
You aren't hiding anything else, are you?
[10:00] Chizuru
I am not.
[10:04] Hijikata
Forget the events of last night. Understand?

Yes.
[10:14] Hijikata
As long as you're here at our command post
you will be given no special treatment.
[10:17] Hijikata
You will be treated as a man... as my page.
[10:24] Chizuru
Then... was my father here, too?
[10:28] Hijikata
We of the Shinsengumi are also searching for him.
[10:32] Hijikata
He had been following the orders
of the shogunate alongside us,
[10:35] Hijikata
but he's been missing ever since
a fire broke out in the infirmary.
[10:41] Hijikata
We haven't found his remains.
[10:44] Hijikata
It seemed like he'd been caught up
in some kind of conflict.
[10:59] (Flashback) Okita
It seems someone wants to have a word...
[11:05] (Flashback) Okita
and it's Sannan-san.
[11:13] (Flashback) Sannan
As we are all looking for the same person,
[11:16] (Flashback) Sannan
why don't we have her
assist us in our search?
[11:21] (Flashback) Sannan
I believe that having her under
our control will prove convenient
[11:25] (Flashback) Sannan
once we've found Kodo-san.
[11:29] (Flashback) Sannan
And that's regardless
of whether he was abducted,
[11:33] (Flashback) Sannan
or whether he betrayed us...
SIGN Shinsengumi Command Post
[12:07] Hijikata
I'm concerned about the moves
the Imperial Loyalists are making.
[12:10] Sannan
You're speaking of the rumors of large numbers
of infiltrators from Choshu, correct?
[12:13] Hijikata
Yes.
[12:15] Sannan
I'll be careful. I'll be going then.
[12:30] Chizuru
Excuse me!
[12:31] Okita
You've been told not to walk about
without good reason, haven't you?
[12:40] Chizuru
Would it be possible for me
to go out to look for my father?
[12:44] Okita
No. We don't have the personnel
to spare to guard you.
[12:49] Chizuru
I have enough knowledge
of the sword to protect myself.
[12:53] Okita
Didn't you nearly get killed by outlaw
ronin soon after coming to the capital?
[12:58] Chizuru
That was...
[13:03] Saito
In that case, I will test you.
[13:05] Saito
Prove to me that your sword isn't just
a decoration hanging at your waist.
[13:11] Chizuru
But... if I use my katana,
Saito-san, you'll be—
[13:16] Saito
If you absolutely do not wish
to use your katana...
[13:20] Saito
then come at me with the back of the blade.
[13:45] Chizuru
Thank you for this opportunity!
[14:14] Okita
If Hajime-kun had been serious,
you'd be dead.
[14:25] Okita
This is a very nice short sword.
[14:36] Chizuru
I'm sorry for the trouble.
[14:39] Saito
Take pride in your swordsmaster.
Your blade is unclouded.
[14:45] Saito
If you wouldn't mind
accompanying the patrols,
[14:47] Saito
then I'll speak to the vice-commanders
about allowing you out
[14:50] Saito
to search for Kodo-san.
[14:59] Chizuru
Thank you so much.
[15:07] Toudou
Oh, now look here!
[15:08] Toudou
It's time to eat, you know...
[15:10] Saito
Apologies. I'll go now.
[15:12] Toudou
Make it quick, please!
[15:21] Toudou
So... you. Chizuru, you should come, too.
[15:25] Toudou
Or there won't be anything left to eat.
[15:27] Chizuru
I'm so sorry, Todo-san. I'll go right—
[15:29] Toudou
Um... Could you stop with the "Todo-san"?
[15:31] Toudou
Everyone calls me Heisuke.
That's good enough.
[15:39] Toudou
And you can stop speaking so politely, too.
[15:44] Chizuru
Can I call you "Heisuke-kun"?
[15:49] Toudou
Yeah.

Time to eat!

If you want to eat, come and get it!
[16:04] Toudou
Ow!
[16:07] Toudou
Hey! Don't eat my fish!
[16:08] Harada
You should smile like that from the start.
[16:12] Harada
We won't treat you badly.
[16:17] Chizuru
I've eaten dinner alone
more often than not, so...
[16:21] Chizuru
it's fun to eat with everyone like this.
[16:32] Okita
Don't let the fact that you haven't paid
for the food bother you, and eat your fill.
[16:36] Chizuru
If there's anything I can do, I'll do it!
[16:38] Saito
Don't let it bother you.
[16:40] Chizuru
No, sir.
[16:43] Chizuru
Whether it's cleaning,
or helping to prepare the food,
[16:45] Chizuru
I'd like to do what I can.

Please let me!

the wound is to his left arm...

They say it will be difficult
for him to hold a sword again.
[17:27] Okita
For Sannan-san... we'll have to use medicine
or whatever else it may take.

I'd aim to rescue Furutaka the moment
everyone leaves the command post.

Yes.
[05:26] Hijikata
That's why...
[05:29] Hijikata
I'm leaving the command post to you.
[05:34] Sannan
Understood.

How many soldiers are mobile?

We have thirty-four in total.
[07:04] Kondou
I can't say that's enough.

Any word from the Aizu clan
or the shogun's deputy?
[07:08] Saitou
We haven't received a reply yet.
[07:10] Toudou
With no message, we won't be
getting their help either, right?
[07:12] Hijikata
Since we haven't determined
the location of the meeting,

they probably feel they can't trust us.
[07:17] Hijikata
After all, they consider themselves
to be far superior to us.
[07:21] Kondou
In any case, with these numbers...
[07:29] Harada
Can we use the rasetsu?
[07:31] Hijikata
It seems we won't be using them
in battle for a while.
[07:33] Hijikata
As long as contact with blood
drives them into a frenzy...
[07:35] Nagakura
They were created using that insane drug.
We shouldn't be using them at all.
[07:39] Toudou
That's what I think.
[07:40] Toudou
I know it was an order from
the shogunate, but that drug...
[07:43] Okita
Quiet down.
[07:44] Okita
Kondo-san has made a decision.
Stop grousing about it, will you?
[07:46] Toudou
But still...
[07:47] Hijikata
This is no time to be arguing
about these matters. You will be quiet.
[07:50] Shimada
Vice-Commander!
[07:52] Hijikata
Shimada.
[07:54] Hijikata
How are things looking?
[07:55] Shimada
The locations likely to be used
by the Imperial Loyalists for their meeting
[07:58] Shimada
are all under exhaustive surveillance,
[08:01] Shimada
but we haven't been able to
narrow it to a specific place.
[08:04] Shimada
However, just now,
[08:05] Shimada
we received word that ronin
have begun to gather...
SIGN Shimada Kai
[08:07] Shimada
at Shikokuya...
[08:08] Shimada
and Ikedaya.
[08:10] Shimada
We believe it's likely one of those two.
[08:13] Okita
So, on top of not having enough soldiers,
[08:16] Okita
we haven't narrowed it down to one location.
[08:20] Okita
What will you do,
mister Demon Vice-Commander?
[08:23] Saitou
Which is the most likely to be the real one?
[08:26] Shimada
I couldn't really say,
[08:27] Shimada
but someone lodging in the same
place as the apprehended Furutaka,
[08:30] Shimada
an Imperial Loyalist known as Miyabe Teizo,
[08:32] Shimada
frequently visited Ikedaya with Furutaka.
SIGN Miyabe Teizo
[08:39] Hijikata
So they'd be unlikely to go there
on the night we've apprehended Furutaka.
[08:44] Shimada
Yes, sir.
[08:45] Shimada
Which is why we believe Shikokuya
to be the right choice.
[08:49] Saitou
But to dismiss Ikedaya on that alone...
[08:51] Shimada
We will continue to observe
and investigate, of course.
[08:54] Shimada
But if we probe much deeper,
[08:57] Shimada
there is a possibility that
they'll notice our movements.
[09:01] Hijikata
Understood.
[09:02] Hijikata
Send a messenger to tell the Aizu
and the shogun's deputy
[09:05] Hijikata
that it's one of those two locations.
[09:06] Shimada
Sir!
[09:10] Hijikata
Kondo-san, we'll split our men
and move out alone.
[09:18] Hijikata
If we wait too long,
we'll be the ones getting raided!
[09:27] Kondou
All right.
[09:31] Hijikata
Since we're mobilizing,
we will make sure to apprehend them!
[09:34] Kondou
Of course!
[09:36] Hijikata
We will divide into two squads.
[09:38] Hijikata
I'll take Shikokuya and the eastern side.
[09:40] Hijikata
Kondo-san, please take
Ikedaya and the western side.
[09:42] Kondou
Toshi, take twenty-four men with you.
[09:45] Hijikata
Kondo-san, are you
only taking ten with you?
[09:47] Hijikata
That's crazy!
[09:48] Kondou
It's more likely that you're headed
to the real meeting place.
[09:51] Kondou
I'm counting on you.
[09:53] Hijikata
I understand.
[09:54] Kondou
In exchange, I will pick
the men for my squad.
[09:58] Kondou
Soji!
[10:01] Kondou
Come with me.
[10:02] Okita
Yes, sir.
[10:04] Kondou
I'll also take Nagakura-kun...
[10:06] Nagajura
Sir.
[10:07] Kondou
and Todo-kun.
[10:08] Toudou
Sir!
[10:09] Kondou
The rest of you split into balanced groups!
[10:20] Kondou
Those who would defy justice...
[10:22] Kondou
Those who would shake the capital...
[10:25] Kondou
These outlaw ronin...
We shall take their ambitions and crush them!

I am looking forward to
your achievements in the field.

[11:21] Toudou
It's too bad the other location
seems like the right one.
[11:23] Okita
I think Ikedaya's the right one, though.
[11:26] Toudou
Why do you think that?
[11:32] Okita
Because both Kondo-san... and I are here.
[11:38] Nagakura
Did you catch a cold?

[12:19] (Flashback) Hijikata
Also... regarding the matter of Kodo-san...
[12:22] (Flashback) Hijikata
Furutaka saw him with someone
from the western parts of the country.
[12:27] (Flashback) Chizuru
My father... and someone from the west?
[12:31] (Flashback) Chizuru
Where were they seen?

At Ikedaya.

[13:50] Okita
Then we've got the right one.
[13:52] Toudou
Soji, your intuition was right!
[13:54] Okita
What will we do, Kondo-san?
[13:57] Kondou
Have we had word from the Aizu clan yet?
[14:07] Chizuru
There is one thing... I'd like to ask.
[14:21] Chizuru
My father...
[14:24] Chizuru
What was he doing here...
with the Shinsengumi?
[14:38] Sannan
Your father...
[14:42] Sannan
simultaneously brought both
despair and hope to us.
[14:57] Yamazaki
Lieutenant Commander Sannan.
[14:59] Yamazaki
They are meeting
on Sanjou Street, at Ikedaya.
[15:07] Sannan
The Shinsengumi might be worse
at gambling than you'd think.
[15:28] Kondou
If they're thinking about rescuing
Furutaka from our command post,
[15:32] Kondou
then we should anticipate there being
a large number of people in there.
[15:35] Okita
You mean that it will be rough
with the number we have?
[15:39] Nagakura
Should we wait for Hijikata-san's squad?
[15:41] Nagakura
The surveillance teams
probably sent them a messenger.
[15:44] Toudou
Won't it take a long time for them
get the message and then get over here?
[15:50] Yamazaki
We must send word to Hijikata's squad
telling them to join Kondo's immediately—
[15:53] Sannan
Wait, please.
[15:55] Yamazaki
Is there a problem?
[15:56] Sannan
There is no guarantee that the ronin
aren't watching our command post.
[15:58] Sannan
Taking that into consideration,
our manpower is...
[16:01] Yamazaki
If I take the message alone,
and the ronin try to stop me,
[16:06] Yamazaki
then Hijikata's squad may receive
the message too late.
[16:08] Sannan
Yes. At the very least, two should go.
[16:11] Yamazaki
But even the slightest delay will—
[16:12] Sannan
I know!
[16:14] Sannan
If Kondo's squad goes in alone,
who knows how many casualties we'll suffer?
[16:19] Sannan
Waiting for Hijikata's squad to join them
before raiding is best.
[16:22] Sannan
Still!
[16:28] Toudou
If we don't hurry and they make the first move,
our command post will be in danger.
[16:31] Nagakura
We have to hurry.
[16:33] Nagakura
Letting ourselves get distracted
by the others will only cause problems.
[16:43] Sannan
I will...
[16:46] Chizuru
I will!
[16:53] Chizuru
I will go, if I may.
[17:02] Sannan
Are you worried that your father
might be caught up in this?
[17:11] Sannan
Yamazaki-kun, I'm counting on you.
[17:16] Yamazaki
In the worst case,
[17:18] Yamazaki
I will make sure that she, at least,
reaches Hijikata's squad.
[17:21] Yamazaki
That's what you mean, right?
[17:22] Sannan
Yes.
[17:45] Hjikata
Any movement?
[17:46] Saitou
Not yet.
[17:48] Saitou
Any word from the commander's squad?
[18:05] Yamazaki
Just as Lieutenant Commander
Sannan predicted.
[18:10] Yamazaki
No matter what happens,
keep running down this road.
[18:12] Yamazaki
There is no need to look back.
[18:13] Chizuru
Is someone there? How many are there?
[18:16] Yamazaki
You don't need to know.
[18:18] Yamazaki
You... just need to run!
[18:21] Chizuru
Yes, sir.
[18:27] Yamazaki
Don't waver! Look for bright sea-blue
uniforms and run toward them!

the extent of your skills.

but that your skills were top-notch.

According to Heisuke, they stated
that they weren't Choshu spies.

They seem to be spies from an outside faction

I've had the inspectors

They say he's a master of the
Hokushin Itto-ryu dueling style.
[11:09] Kondo
Thank you for traveling
all the way from Edo.
[11:15] Harada
Ito-san is an imperial loyalist, isn't he?
[11:18] Saito
That's what I've heard.
[11:21] Harada
Why would someone who feels
the same as those Choshu guys
[11:23] Harada
decide to join the Shinsengumi?
[11:25] Saito
When they went to Edo to ask
that the lord visit the capital,
[11:29] Saito
they spoke to Ito-san, who was
an acquaintance of Heisuke's.
[11:34] Ito
I heard that during the
recent incident at Ikedaya....
[11:36] Ito
your exploits were quite impressive.
[11:40] Kondo
Not at all.
[11:41] Ito
The Shinsengumi, at the very brink...
[11:45] Ito
prevented the abduction
of His Imperial Majesty.
[11:49] Ito
I hear that the shogunate
thinks very highly of you.
[11:53] Kondo
It wasn't anything to speak of.
[12:01] Nagakura
Where's Heisuke?
[12:02] Saito
Still in Edo recruiting troops.
[12:05] Harada
A guy like that...
Should we really let him join?
[12:08] Saito
It is having members
with many different beliefs
[12:11] Saito
which will help our organization to grow.
[12:14] Saito
However...
[12:15] Kondo
With the Aizu victory in the matter in July,
[12:18] Kondo
Aizu's position has become
firmly established in the capital.
[12:22] Ito
But on that occasion, I heard
that much of the capital burned.
[12:28] Kondo
It was the same as Ikedaya.
[12:30] Kondo
Our lack of manpower
was the main reason for that.
[12:35] Ito
In that case, it seems I might become
[12:41] Ito
a great help to the Shinsengumi.
[12:47] Saito
Forcing growth can lead
to a collapse starting from within.
[13:00] Kondo
Together... we will protect this land.
[13:04] Ito
Yes. Together.
[13:13] Harada
Kondo-san already seems to adore Ito-san.
[13:16] Okita
Kondo-san is good-natured. That's why...
[13:20] Okita
smooth-talking, black-hearted guys
like that can easily trick him.
SIGN February, Genji Year 2 (1865)
[13:44] Kondo
We'll be getting new troops in again soon.
[13:48] Kondo
I think it's time to move
to a new command post.
[13:51] Ito
Hated as we are within the capital,
is there anywhere that will accept us?
[13:56] Saito
Do you know of a place?
[13:59] Ito
Nishi Hongwanji.
[14:03] Sannan
I'd heard that Nishi Hongwanji
was sheltering Choshu ronin.
[14:09] Sannan
I don't think they'd accept us so easily.
[14:11] Ito
This is something which Vice-Commander
Hijikata and I have discussed at length.
[14:18] Hijikata
If we move to Nishi Hongwanji,
[14:20] Hijikata
the imperial loyalist ronin will
lose one of their hiding places.
[14:24] Sannan
But restricting the ministers' movements
with military force... Is that right?
[14:28] Hijikata
The ones using the temple and ministers
[14:30] Hijikata
as a front to do whatever
they like are the Choshu.
[14:32] Sannan
I know we must keep an eye on the
Choshu ronin. However, this isn't—
[14:35] Ito
Our capital...
[14:37] Ito
and its public safety are being thrown
into disarray by disloyal ronin.
[14:39] Ito
To show concern for them...
[14:42] Ito
Sannan-san, you are so very kind.
[14:46] Ito
Even if your left arm is forever useless
and you can never live as a swordsman again,
[14:53] Ito
your splendid and ready wit in debate...
[14:56] Ito
will certainly be needed as the
Shinsengumi grow. Don't you think?
[15:10] Hijikata

[15:12] Hijikata
What did you mean by that?
[15:18] Hijikata
Just as you say, Sannan-san
is highly skilled in debate.
[15:22] Hijikata
But...
[15:24] Hijikata
the Shinsengumi need his skills
as a swordsman, too!
[15:32] Ito
I seem to have slipped and spoken out of turn.
[15:40] Kondo
On the matter of moving
to a new command post...
[15:42] Kondo
Let's leave it until after we've all had a
chance to discuss it, Military Advisor Ito.
[15:47] Ito
Yes, of course.
[16:01] Chizuru
Is it already finished?
[16:04] Sannan
Well, I am, at least.
[16:09] Sannan
Since a brilliant military
advisor has joined us,
[16:13] Sannan
I will leave the position
of lieutenant commander.
[16:32] Chizuru
Excuse me.

Please find a suitable reason
to drive that man out.

Bringing in a guy like that...
[17:14] Nagakura
When he gets back,
I'm really gonna let him have it!
[17:16] Harada
I've got no idea why Kondo-san
is so devoted to a guy like that.
[17:20] Harada
A military advisor? Sannan-san
was more than enough already.
[17:40] (Flashback) Sannan
I will leave the position
of lieutenant commander.
[18:20] Sannan
Are you worried for me?
[18:28] Sannan
You wanted to know what Kodo-san was
doing with the Shinsengumi, didn't you?
[18:38] Chizuru
Yes.
[18:44] Sannan
Come this way.
[19:04] Chizuru
Who are these people?
[19:07] Sannan
They are...
[19:10] Sannan
individuals whom your father turned
into "something which is not human."
[19:16] Chizuru
My father did this?
[19:20] Sannan
With a medicine brought in under
a secret order by the shogunate.
[19:27] Sannan
Drinking this medicine endows one
with inhuman strength,
[19:32] Sannan
and wounds heal as soon
as they are inflicted.
[19:36] Sannan
This medicine was meant
to be the hope of the Shinsengumi.
[19:41] Sannan
But this medicine has one fatal flaw.
[19:47] Sannan
What becomes of a person
after drinking this...
[19:52] Sannan
You've seen it with your
own eyes, haven't you?
[19:58] Sannan
Once you've taken this,
[20:00] Sannan
you can no longer move
about under the light of the sun.
[20:04] Sannan
That would be enough in itself, but...
[20:08] Sannan
drinking this steals your ability to reason.
[20:11] Sannan
You become a monster thirsting for blood,
and can no longer be considered human.
[20:17] Sannan
Right now, we're suppressing their
desire for blood with medicines,
[20:21] Sannan
but you would never think they
were human, would you?
[20:28] Sannan
Though all your wounds would heal...
[20:32] Sannan
and you would gain incredible strength...
[20:36] Sannan
in drinking this,
you would lose your humanity.
[20:46] Sannan
Your father was working here
to improve this medicine.
[20:53] Sannan
In this test site known
as the Shinsengumi...
[20:59] Sannan
But research into
the medicine has been halted,
[21:02] Sannan
because Kodo-san has gone missing.
[21:07] Sannan
Even after Kodo-san disappeared,
[21:11] Sannan
I've used the notes he left behind
to continue trying to improve the medicine.
[21:23] Sannan
If I drank this medicine...
[21:28] Sannan
my arm would heal.
[21:34] Chizuru
That medicine...
[21:38] Chizuru
if it's your improved version, Sannan-san...
[21:44] Chizuru
will you heal without becoming blood-crazed?
[21:48] Sannan
If I've compounded it correctly.
[21:51] Chizuru
Are you planning to use it?
[21:59] Chizuru
Please reconsider.
[22:02] Chizuru

all know they need you!

[22:12] Sannan
You couldn't possibly understand!
[22:20] Sannan
I am of no use whatsoever,

I have already served my purpose, and yet
they spout nonsense about my being needed!
[22:28] Sannan
I know better than anyone that
there is no further need of me here.
[22:33] Sannan
You don't understand.
[22:36] Sannan
How can you understand how I feel, being
granted an important position out of pity?
[22:40] Chizuru
It isn't pity!
[22:41] Sannan
If I drink this, my arm may heal!
[22:46] Sannan
If it heals...
[22:48] Sannan
If it heals... I'll be
able to hold a sword again.
[22:53] Sannan
If it heals, I'll once again...
[22:56] Sannan
I'll once again become
someone this company needs.
[23:01] Chizuru
But if it fails...
[23:03] Sannan
If it means that I can be a swordsman,
even as a living corpse,
[23:10] Sannan
then please allow the human me to die.
[23:32] Chizuru
Someone... Is there anyone there?
[23:37] Chizuru

Good morning, everyone.

"Ugh" is your way of greeting me, I assume?
[09:24] Ito
What's this?
[09:26] Ito
The pallor of your faces seems
to indicate that you are all unwell.
[09:29] Ito
Does it have something to do
with the uproar last night?
[09:33] Saito
As you have guessed, Military Advisor Ito,
[09:35] Saito
last night, an incident occurred
within the command post.
[09:38] Saito
However, we have not
yet gathered all the details.
[09:44] Ito
My, my.
[09:49] Saito
To explain what we know at this moment
would only invite misunderstandings,
[09:53] Saito
so I believe it would be better
to convey the information
[09:55] Saito
at a later time, perhaps tonight.
[09:57] Ito
Then I look forward to your invitation
tonight with great anticipation.

[13:39] Todo
if it was Ito-san's fault that Sannan-san
drank the Water of Life, then...

The Water of Life isn't something

we, the Shinsengumi, have been given
an order to protect the edict boards.
[07:28] Kondo
Everyone, I hope you will
devote all your energies to this.
[07:48] Chizuru
Excuse me!
[07:50] Chizuru
About the next night patrol...
[07:51] Chizuru
would it make things
difficult if I were to join?
[07:54] Saito
Don't.
[07:55] Saito
Night patrols incur considerable risk.
[07:58] Chizuru
Yes, you're right.
[08:05] Harada
Chizuru.
[08:07] Chizuru
Yes?
[08:12] Harada
There's something
I wanted to talk to you about.
[08:21] Nagakura
Sano.
[08:23] Nagakura
You really did a great thing...
[08:25] Nagakura
saying you want to treat everyone
to some good food!
[08:28] Okita
If you want to praise him,
[08:29] Okita
you should be talking about
how he protected the edict boards.
[08:31] Nagakura
Well, that's a given.
[08:33] Harada
I never imagined there'd be a monetary
reward for the thing with the boards.
[08:36] Todo
Today, I'm gonna drink
as much as I want thanks to you!
[08:40] Okita
Though it's not like all of us
can drink alcohol.
[08:45] Todo
Hey! It's Chizuru!
[08:46] Nagakura
Hey! All right!
[08:48] Nagakura
Today, all of us with no restraint
are gonna drink with no restraint!
[08:51] Nagakura
Huh? Where's Saito?
[08:54] Saito
Here.
[08:55] Nagakura
What's this? You got here before us?
[08:58] Nagakura
Just how eager are you
to get drinking? You little...
[09:01] Todo
Come on. Let's go, Shinpachi-san!
[09:03] Nagakura
Yeah!
[09:09] Harada
Is everything ready?
[09:10] Chizuru
We're ready.
[09:12] Harada
Good.
[09:20] Nagakura
Let's get to drinking!
[09:26] Nagakura
Oh...
[09:28] Nagakura
Huh?
[09:31] Nagakura
Hey, wait!
[09:33] Nagakura
Huh?
[09:35] Nagakura
What?
[09:38] Hijikata
Just give up.
[09:40] Hijikata
The two of us have been caught in a trap.
[09:45] Hijikata
They must want us to have an
honest, heart-to-heart talk.
[09:47] Hijikata
I was brought here by Saito and Yukimura.
[10:08] Hijikata
You don't like the way
I'm doing things, right?
[10:16] Nagakura
It's sort of...
[10:19] Nagakura
It's not like we're good with words...
[10:23] Nagakura
and we don't know anyone important.
[10:26] Nagakura
But...
[10:28] Nagakura
the reason the Shinsengumi
have grown this much
[10:31] Nagakura
is because we've fought, ready to die!
[10:36] Nagakura
And yet...
[10:40] Hijikata
I'm sorry.
[10:46] Hijikata
I didn't want to be nice to all of you
[10:48] Hijikata
and give others the chance
to say stupid things
[10:51] Hijikata
about my relying only on the veterans.
[10:56] Hijikata
I'm sorry for going too
far in what I've said.
[11:08] Nagakura
And I...
[11:11] Nagakura
I've been sulky... and even childish.
[11:19] Nagakura
I'm sorry.
[11:24] Harada
Thank you.
[11:30] Nagakura
All right! Tonight, let's drink
to our heart's content!
[11:33] Nagakura
Hey! Let's order something weak
that even Hijikata-san can drink!
[11:38] Hijikata
No one asked for that kind of consideration!
[11:40] Hijikata
It's not that I can't drink.
It's that I don't drink, that's all.
[11:53] Saito
Hey, Shinpachi.
[11:54] Todo
Shinpachi-san!
[12:00] Nagakura
Heisuke! Heisuke!
[12:09] Nagakura
Hey, Saito!
[12:09] Todo
Hajime-kun, you come up here, too!
[12:13] Todo
You're hopeless!
[12:14] Nagakura
Hey, Sano. You ready for this?
[12:17] Harada
I guess I'll do it.
[12:22] geiko
Well done!
[12:25] Harada
All right.
[12:26] Todo
Sano-san!
[12:30] Nagakura
I like it!
[12:51] Nagakura
This is great!
[13:05] Nagakura
It's because of stuff like this
that I just can't give up.
[13:12] Nagakura
If Kondo-san and Hijikata-san had
changed after becoming all important,
[13:16] Nagakura
then I'd be able to leave
the company with no regrets.
[13:24] Nagakura
It'd be nice if we could always be together.
[13:27] Nagakura
All of us, like this.
[13:30] Saito
It would.
[13:34] Todo
What're you getting all
quiet for, Shinpachi-san?
[13:37] Todo
Could it be you're low on alcohol?
[13:40] Nagakura
What are you saying, Heisuke?
[13:42] Nagakura
Right, this means a challenge, you jerk!
[13:46] Harada
Let me join in, too!
[13:47] Todo
Hey, Sano-san!
[14:08] Hijikata
What are you just standing there for?
[14:19] Hijikata
They just never change.
[14:23] Hijikata
Back when we were just running
a destitute training hall in Edo,
[14:26] Hijikata
if a little money came in,
they'd go drinking like that.
[14:30] Hijikata
And they'd say that they weren't going
to let things end the way they were.
[14:36] Chizuru
To think you had times like that...
It's difficult to imagine.
[14:42] Hijikata
I think the same sometimes.
[14:45] Hijikata
I was a peddler, carrying
a box full of medicines,
[14:48] Hijikata
and now I carry a pair of swords,
serving the shogunate.
[14:53] Hijikata
And I wonder...
[14:56] Hijikata
All this time, could it be that I'm just
having a long, happy dream?
[15:06] (Flashback) Kondo
Do you think I can do it?
[15:08] (Flashback) Kondo
To be remembered as a warrior,
[15:12] (Flashback) Kondo
when I'm only the son of a peasant.
[15:15] (Flashback) Hijikata
You can.
[15:17] (Flashback) Hijikata
These are the words of a man
who is enamored of you to his very core.
[15:20] (Flashback) Hijikata
Trust them, just once.
[15:23] (Flashback) Hijikata
I promise...
[15:25] (Flashback) Hijikata
I will raise you to a place that befits you.
[15:32] (Flashback) Kondo
Together. Right?
[15:38] Hijikata
We're almost there.
[15:41] Hijikata
Just a little further, and Kondo-san will...
[15:43] Hijikata
And if it's for that purpose, I'd do...
[15:46] Chizuru
Hijikata-san.
[15:49] Hijikata
Back then... I made him a promise.
[15:53] Hijikata
If it's for the Shinsengumi...
[15:55] Hijikata
If it's for Kondo-san, then I...
[15:58] Hijikata
I would do anything, no matter how wrong.
[16:01] Hijikata
I would even become a demon from hell!
[16:10] Hijikata
It seems I've had
a little too much to drink.
SIGN Residence of the Satsuma Domain

The shogunate and the Shinsengumi both...
[16:22] Ito
They will be left behind by the times.
[16:29] Ito
And the ones who will move the times are...
[16:37] Satsuma warrior
Ito, to have someone like you
as an ally is very reassuring.
[16:47] Satsuma warrior
The Shinsengumi are only a bunch of
peasants gathered together, after all.
[16:50] Satsuma warrior
A trash heap like that
doesn't suit you, Ito-san.
[17:00] Ito
And you two...
[17:04] Ito
You aren't from Satsuma, are you?
[17:09] Satsuma warrior
Their background is a little unusual.
[17:14] Satsuma warrior
By the way, there are some strange
rumors going around about the Shinsengumi.
[17:20] Satsuma warrior
Do you know anything about those?
[17:25] Kazama
Humans have a deep liking for lies,
betrayal, and pillaging, don't they?
[17:31] Kazama
It's enough to make this warrior laugh.
[17:37] Kazama
I think it's time we give our greetings.
SIGN March, Keio Year 3 (1867)

[17:51] Ito
Just as you say.
[17:53] Ito
I will leave here with those of a like mind,
[17:55] Ito
and we will be appointed to guard
the tomb of Emperor Komei as the Goryo-eishi.
[18:01] Ito
I, Ito...
[18:03] Ito
joined the Shinsengumi out of
a heartfelt devotion to the emperor.
[18:08] Ito
However...
[18:09] Ito
the Shinsengumi, as they are now,
favor the shogunate too heavily.
[18:14] Ito
As it stands...
[18:15] Hijikata
Enough rationalizations.
[18:16] Hijikata
Basically, you're saying
we'll split the company?
[18:21] Ito
The top officers appear to be hiding things.
[18:28] Ito
It affects morale.
[18:31] Kondo
Hiding things?
[18:34] Ito
They say...
[18:36] Ito
that you repeatedly perform
experiments which defy humanity...
[18:41] Ito
for example.
[18:50] Ito
It appears you would like me
to hold my tongue.
[18:56] Ito
I would like to leave this place.
[18:59] Ito
So...
[19:02] Ito
as I am leaving, I ask that you
spare me some of the men.
[19:08] Ito
Only as a sign of our friendship.
[19:17] Chizuru
Heisuke-kun and Saito-san both?
[19:19] Inoue
They said they'd go with Ito-san.
[19:22] Inoue
It's possible...
[19:23] Inoue
that we'll have to fight
against them as enemies one day.
[19:58] Todo
I had a feeling I might get caught.
[20:03] Chizuru
Heisuke-kun.
[20:09] Todo
This isn't something I decided recently.
[20:14] Chizuru
Yes.
[20:15] Todo
You know, I...
[20:17] Todo
I don't think Ito-san
is as wrong as people say.
[20:22] Todo
Just like Ito-san says,
[20:24] Todo
if we keep doing what the shogunate
tells us to, then... I feel that way, too.
[20:34] Todo
And that medicine... It just isn't right.
[20:42] Todo
I wonder if Sano-san and
Shinpachi-san are angry, too.
[20:46] Todo
They must be furious.
[20:50] Todo
I just can't face them.
[20:57] Todo
I'm sorry.
[20:59] Todo
For not being able to stay
with you until you find your father.
[21:13] Todo
Sorry.
[21:15] Todo
I'm gonna go on ahead.
[21:32] Saito
If you have something to say,
hurry up and say it.
[21:39] Chizuru
You're leaving too, Saito-san?
[21:43] Saito
I believe I told you.
[21:45] Saito
How should I live so that I can go
to the other world with no regrets?
[21:48] Saito
That is the only question I have.
[21:52] Saito
If it's to stay true to one's will, then one
should not concern oneself with feelings.
[21:59] Chizuru
I...
[22:02] Chizuru
I just don't understand.
[22:20] Saito
How many times has it been, I wonder...
[22:23] Saito
How many times have I seen the cherry
blossoms bloom in the capital?
[22:28] Saito
As time passes, many things change.
[22:32] Saito
The way the world moves, ideology...
[22:36] Saito
and the Shinsengumi, too.
[22:41] Chizuru
And because it's changed...
you're leaving this place?
[22:48] Chizuru
Saito-san, haven't you changed, too?
[22:51] Saito
Even so.
[22:54] Saito
It doesn't mean that everything will change.
[23:00] Saito
As time passes, some things change,
but others stay the same.
[23:04] Saito
And I...
[23:13] Saito
I believe in those things
which stay the same.
[23:22] Chizuru
Things that stay the same...

If it's for Kondo-san, I'll cut down
anything without hesitation.
[05:21] Okita
But, since all I do is lie around...
How long do you think they'll let me be?
[05:27] Okita
Now that I can't fight...

Allow me to tell you that I do not
require permission to take you away.

Come with me.

If you come with me,
you'll understand everything.
[12:06] Shiranui
You went with brute force?
[12:07] Kazama
If we stay here, we will be
caught up in the humans' misfortune.

What are you planning to do with her?
[12:18] Kazama
This is a problem among us oni.
[12:21] Kazama

understanding her worth.

That is why we are taking her back with us.

[12:36] Kazama

You will never again be able to interfere...
[12:43] Kazama
once you have tasted
the difference in our strengths.
[12:49] Hijikata
Blather all you like!
[12:58] Kazama
You are only a dog of the shogunate,
relying on the strength of fakes.
[13:30] Kazama
Why would you defend a human?
[13:32] Kazama
You're an oni!
[13:36] Chizuru
I... am not an oni...
[13:46] Kazama
No matter how much you may deny it...

Come with me.

We're known as the Miburo,

That woman belongs to me.

[14:21] Hijikata
is under the care of the Shinsengumi.

Don't you touch her!

The pitiful sight of those false
oni created by that medicine...
[14:37] Kazama
You've seen them, have you not?
[14:40] Kazama
They make something like that just
to have a name for themselves...
[14:43] Kazama
And you would stay with them?
[14:46] Kazama
Do you think that is right?
[14:50] Chizuru
The experiments with that medicine...
[14:53] Chizuru
My father brought those about.

As his daughter, I cannot ignore them.
[15:08] Chizuru
I will not go with you. Please leave!
[15:28] Shiranui
To think I'd see Kazama get turned down.
[15:31] Kazama
I'm only granting her a deferment
until she comes to her senses.
[15:36] Kazama
Let's go.
[15:38] Shiranui
Sure thing.
[15:43] Kazama
A word of advice.
[15:46] Kazama
Stop turning simple humans into false oni.
[15:50] Amagiri
They are failures which you do not
have the capacity to deal with.
[15:55] Amagiri
There is no way to remedy
the symptoms of their sudden breaking.
[16:00] Amagiri
No matter what you do.
[16:04] Hijikata
You've got no right to tell us anything.
[16:08] Amagiri
Very soon, we will erase ourselves
from human history.
[16:13] Amagiri
And when we do, the rasetsu will,
of course, be included.
[16:17] Amagiri
Yukimura Chizuru.
[16:19] Amagiri
You will be, too.
[16:26] Kazama
Oni and humans are incompatible.
[16:29] Kazama
All the false ones will be eliminated.
[16:33] Kazama
Remember that.
[16:49] Chizuru
I'll switch with you.
[16:56] Yamazaki
Yukimura-kun, water please.
[16:58] Chizuru
Right away.
[17:04] Kondo
She's... an oni?
[17:08] Hijikata
I understand wanting to doubt it,
but seeing her ability, so like a rasetsu's...
[17:13] Hijikata
being told she's an oni makes more sense.
[17:22] (Flashback) Kazama
Why would you defend a human?
[17:25] (Flashback) Kazama
You're an oni!
[17:27] (Flashback) Kazama
Come with me.
[17:38] Sannan
The reason I returned to my senses...
[17:46] Sannan
It really must have been...
[18:00] Chizuru
It's Yukimura.
[18:01] Chizuru
I've brought some tea.
[18:04] Hijikata
Come in.
[18:19] Hijikata
Sorry, just leave it anywhere.
[18:21] Chizuru
Yes, sir.
[18:47] Hijikata
What are you doing?
[18:49] Chizuru
Oh, nothing.
[18:51] Hijikata
In that case, hurry up and leave.
[18:53] Hijikata
I have no time to entertain you.
[18:57] Chizuru
Isn't your hair in the way?
[19:03] Hijikata
It is.
[19:07] Hijikata
Now that we're under the shogun,
there's more detailed work to be done.
[19:09] Hijikata
I can't spare the effort to tie it back.
[19:13] Chizuru
If you're not opposed to the idea,
shall I put it up for you?
[19:20] Hijikata
I don't like people messing with my hair.
[19:24] Chizuru
I'm sorry.
[19:30] Hijikata
I will accept your thoughtfulness alone.
[19:42] Hijikata
Now I can focus on my work.
[19:44] Chizuru
Yes, sir.
[19:49] Hijikata
Since you're here, talk.
[19:54] Hijikata
You have something you want
to talk to me about, don't you?
[19:59] Hijikata
We've been together so long, I can tell
that much just looking at your face.
[20:04] Hijikata
What's happened?
[20:13] Chizuru
Is... Is it all right
for me to stay here like this?
[20:19] Chizuru
If I'm here, they'll come again!
[20:22] Hijikata
I will not allow you to leave here.
[20:26] Hijikata
You know too much.
[20:30] Chizuru
I suppose so.
[20:32] Hijikata
Besides, it isn't your fault
we were attacked.
[20:37] Hijikata
The fact that we weren't able to deal
with the enemy is our problem.
[20:42] Hijikata
And you...
[20:43] Hijikata
Back then, you raised
your blade against him.
[20:48] Hijikata
You fought alongside us.
[20:52] Hijikata
That's more than enough
reason for you to be here.
[21:03] Chizuru
Thank you!

Starting today, Saito will be

Saito-kun, under Toshi's command,
[22:10] Kondo
lay hidden within Ito's faction as a spy.
[22:15] Saito
Ito and the others are taking actions which
are clearly hostile toward the Shinsengumi.
[22:19] Saito
They have joined hands with Satsuma,
[22:20] Saito
and to cause the fall of the shogunate,
[22:22] Saito
they are planning to reveal
the existence of the rasetsu.
[22:25] Hijikata
They've grown desperate in their search
to find fault with the shogunate.
[22:30] Kondo
It seems the Satsuma want to use
this war to bring down the shogunate.
[22:35] Saito
Ito, with his status as a former
member of the Shinsengumi,
[22:38] Saito
feels a sense of inferiority
among the Satsuma.
[22:40] Saito
If he is able to crush the Shinsengumi,
a part of the shogunate itself...
[22:44] Saito
he seems to believe that he will
instantly make a name for himself.
[22:47] Hijikata
Sakamoto of the Tosa has only
just been assassinated,
[22:50] Hijikata
but it seems that Ito has been going
around saying that we're the perpetrators.
[22:55] Saito
And...
[22:57] Saito
there is one more pressing problem.
[23:00] Saito
Ito's faction...
[23:03] Saito
is planning the assassination
of the commander of the Shinsengumi.

But... Heisuke-kun is a friend,

Of course not!

I ask this not as your commander,

but it looks like we're
the ones caught in a trap!

It's an emergency.
[11:03] Yamazaki
Nagakura-san and the others,
and the Goryo-eishi,
[11:05] Yamazaki
have been interrupted and besieged.
[11:07] Yamazaki
I believe it to be the Satsuma.
[11:12] Yamazaki
We need anyone who can move to
be sent as reinforcements.
[11:13] Hijikata
No. Since Kazama showed up,
we can't spare anyone to go and assist.
[11:19] Chizuru
Then what will happen
to everyone at Aburanokoji?

Against these numbers,
even retreating to the command post is...

It was the wish of the faction
to whom I lend my aid.
[13:11] Kazama

then... Hey! Anyone!
[14:24] Nagakura
Please, get Matsumoto-sensei!
[14:26] Nagakura

[14:33] Nagakura
Fine. I'll bring him myself.
[14:36] Sannan
With that wound,
[14:37] Sannan
Todo-kun will die before
you reach Matsumoto-sensei!
[14:41] Sannan
Are you all right with that?!
[14:42] Nagakura
Of course I'm not!
[14:45] Nagakura
But, what you're trying to do...
[14:48] Sannan
You don't want to let him die
and I feel the same!
[14:52] Chizuru
But...
[14:54] Chizuru
Heisuke-kun... hates that medicine...
[14:59] Chizuru
more than anyone.
[15:01] Sannan
The final decision...
[15:05] Sannan
should be left to Todo-kun.
[15:09] Nagakura
You can't be serious.
Are you some kind of demon?
[15:13] Nagakura
Under these circumstances,
you're gonna ask Heisuke?!
[15:17] Sannan
If you plan to kill me,
aim for the neck or the heart!
[15:21] Hijikata
Both of you, stop!
[15:30] Sannan
Please... trust me with this.
[15:49] Sannan
Right in this moment,
a life is about to end.
[15:53] Sannan
This is a means to save it.
[15:57] Sannan
Is that really so great a crime?
[16:16] Nagakura
I...
[16:19] Nagakura
I found myself wanting Heisuke to live.
[16:25] Nagakura
That's why...
[16:28] Nagakura
I couldn't stop Sannan-san.
[16:35] Harada
I know.
[16:41] Nagakura
Is it better for Heisuke
to die pure and gallant...
[16:48] Nagakura
or to continue living as a rasetsu?
[16:57] Nagakura
I just don't know anymore.
[17:27] Todo
Hey!
[17:31] Chizuru
Is it all right for you to be up?
[17:34] Todo
I'm doing so well,
I can't believe what happened.
[17:36] Todo
I'm just like always.
[17:38] Chizuru
I see.
[17:39] Todo
Shinpachi-san and Sano-san
were just here, too.
[17:42] Todo
They laughed and said, "So it's true that
idiots won't change even if they die."

I'll prepare your meal.
[17:54] Todo

[18:17] Harada
I'll help.
[18:22] Chizuru
I'm sorry... for things turning out this way.
[18:27] Harada
Without that medicine...
Heisuke would've died for sure.
[18:33] Harada
You have no reason to feel bad.
[18:36] Chizuru
Yes.
[18:39] Harada
And the Shinsengumi having that medicine...
[18:41] Harada
is not solely Kodo-san's responsibility.
[18:44] Harada
It was Kondo-san and
Hijikata-san who agreed to it.
[18:48] Harada
Though it's not like they had a choice.
[18:53] Harada
If we're ever abandoned by the shogunate,
[18:55] Harada
Kondo-san and Hijikata-san would
have been stripped of their samurai titles.
[19:00] Harada
For them, a life outside
of the Shinsengumi...
[19:06] Harada
doesn't exist.
[19:26] Sannan
There is no need to be afraid.
[19:31] Sannan
I was simply hoping for a little...
[19:34] Sannan
of your blood. That's why I've come.
[19:38] Chizuru
Blood?
[19:40] Sannan
I've been thinking about it for a long time.
[19:43] Sannan
Why was I able to return to my senses?
[19:49] Sannan
Could it be because I...
ingested some of your blood?
[19:57] Sannan
That is how it appeared to me.
[20:01] Sannan
The blood of an oni completely
suppressed a rasetsu's madness.
[20:06] Sannan
The Water of Life is something
which has come to us from the West.
[20:08] Sannan
It's likely that other beings with
oni-like powers exist in other countries.
[20:14] Sannan
I still don't know how
the Water of Life is made.
[20:19] Sannan
However...
[20:21] Sannan
In all likelihood...
[20:24] Sannan
the blood of the living...
[20:30] Sannan
At the very least, it's worth testing.
[20:36] Sannan
With your very existence,
we in the Rasetsu Squad... No!
[20:41] Sannan
everyone in the Shinsengumi might be saved.
[20:47] Sannan
If we have your blood...
[20:52] Chizuru
I...
[20:54] Hijikata
You, of all people.
[20:59] Hijikata
Drawing your sword inside the command post...
Have you gone mad?
[21:04] Sannan
Hijikata-kun.
[21:06] Sannan
Perfect. Will you help me?
[21:09] Hijikata
Sheathe your sword.
Personal duels are forbidden.
[21:12] Sannan
Yukimura-kun is not one of the soldiers.
[21:15] Hijikata
She's not a soldier, but she's with us
so long, she's no different!
[21:19] Sannan
In that case, naturally,
she'll want to help us.
[21:22] Sannan
The Shinsengumi need the power of the rasetsu.
You've been saying that since...
[21:26] Hijikata
You just want to think that it's needed!
[21:32] Hijikata
For your own sake, not anyone else's.
[21:47] Sannan
I will withdraw, but please remember...
[21:53] Sannan
as things stand, Todo-kun will also...
[22:07] Hijikata
Are you all right?
[22:09] Chizuru
Yes.
[22:12] Hijikata
Before...
[22:14] Hijikata
He wasn't someone who'd
say things like that to me.
[22:20] Chizuru
I'm very sorry.
[22:24] Hijikata
Why?
[22:26] Hijikata
You have reason to apologize.
[22:31] Chizuru
The reason Sannan-san is behaving strangely...
if you go back to the beginning...
[22:39] Chizuru
Heisuke-kun, too...
[22:41] Chizuru
He can't be seen
by the outside world anymore.
[22:45] Chizuru
The medicine that my father brought here...
[22:48] Chizuru
Hijikata-san, you and the others treasure the
Shinsengumi, but the medicine is eating away at it.
[22:54] Hijikata
The Water of Life is a path
that we chose for ourselves.
[22:58] Chizuru
I beg of you.
[23:01] Chizuru
If there's anything I can do,
please order me to do it.
[23:08] Chizuru
I know that I lack the ability to help.
[23:12] Chizuru
I just...
[23:15] Chizuru
I've been saved so many times...
[23:17] Chizuru
and I haven't been able to do anything...
[23:25] Chizuru
I don't want to cause any
more trouble for anyone!
[23:28] Chizuru
Please.
[23:32] Chizuru
Is...
[23:34] Chizuru
Is there any way I can be of
more use to the Shinsengumi?
[23:45] Hijikata
Don't bow your head so readily.
[23:48] Hijikata
If there is something in your
heart which will not yield,
[23:53] Hijikata
then keep looking ahead,
no matter the circumstances.
[23:57] Chizuru
If there is anything
I can do, please tell me.
[24:05] Hijikata
You are a strange woman.
[24:07] Hijikata
We had you here under house arrest
to start with, didn't we?
[24:13] Hijikata
If you insist, then start
by making me some tea, will you?
[24:18] Chizuru
Yes, sir.
[24:26] Hijikata
You weren't the only one who was saved.
[24:32] Hijikata
You're doing a lot for us.

[02:59] Shimada
On the way back from
the war council at Nijo Castle,
[03:02] Shimada
we were suddenly attacked
while we were on horseback!
[03:05] Hijikata
If you'd fallen from your horses, you wouldn't
have been able to outrun the assassin.
[03:09] Shimada
I can't apologize enough for not being
able to protect the commander!
[03:13] Hijikata
No.
[03:15] Hijikata
He said he didn't need an escort so big
that it would leave this place shorthanded,
[03:19] Hijikata
and I couldn't convince him
otherwise. It's my responsibility.
[03:23] Hijikata
What's that?
[03:23] Inoue
Toshi-san!
[03:25] Inoue
It's Soji.
[03:29] Shimada

[03:52] Sasahara
To think you'd take the trouble
of leaving your sickbed for us.
[03:56] Sasahara
How convenient.

[03:59] Sasahara
How is Kondo?
[04:02] Sasahara
Is he dead?
[04:30] Okita
Were you the one... who shot Kondo-san?
[04:56] Okita
The likes of a gun isn't enough
to kill me anymore.
[05:13] Okita
Huh?
[05:26] Okita
That's strange.
[05:28] Hijikata
Soji!
[05:36] Hijikata
Soji.
[05:38] Okita
Hijikata-san...
[05:41] Okita
If Kondo-san dies...
[05:45] Hijikata
Don't talk. You may have
the body of a rasetsu, but...
[05:47] Okita
If Kondo-san dies...
it's your fault, Hijikata-san.
[05:54] Okita
If that happens, I'll never forgive you.
[05:59] Okita
I'll follow you wherever you go...
[06:03] Okita
and I'll cut you down, Hijikata-san.
[06:08] Hijikata
Yes, it's my fault.
[06:11] Hijikata
So...
[06:15] Hijikata
Soji.
[06:26] Hijikata
Soji... has tuberculosis.
[06:30] Nagakura
So to cure that, he became a rasetsu?
[06:36] Hijikata
How is Soji's condition?
[06:39] Sannan
He's still asleep.
[06:46] Todo
But normally, as a rasetsu,
he'd already be...
[06:49] Sannan
Yes.
[06:51] Sannan
Once the bullet was removed,
he should have recovered immediately.
[07:02] Sannan
This is the bullet I removed from Okita-kun.
[07:06] Sannan
I believe it is made of silver.
[07:11] Hijikata
Wounds inflicted by silver...
[07:13] Hijikata
don't heal, even for rasetsu.
Is that what this means?
[07:15] Sannan
It is a truth I was unaware of, as well.
[07:18] Sannan
It seems they have someone
knowledgeable about rasetsu with them.
[07:42] Chizuru
I'm so glad.
[07:45] Saito
The commander has
survived the critical stage.
[07:47] Saito
His condition has stablized.
[07:51] Okita
Is that true?
[07:52] Saito
As to whether I like to joke
or not in these situations,
[07:55] Saito
you should know better than anyone.
[08:00] Okita
Kondo-san's going to be all right.
[08:03] Saito
So don't do anything more
to cause the commander to worry.
[08:10] Okita
I'm so glad.
[08:19] Harada
Saito, Sannan-san wants to see you.
[08:30] Sannan
This is the last of the
Water of Life that we possess.
[08:36] Sannan
We bear both responsibility
for our research into the Water of Life,
[08:41] Sannan
and the right to its benefits.
[08:44] Sannan
In this battle where anything
might happen, if one...
[08:47] Sannan
thought that they would not die, then...
[08:49] Nagakura
Quit messing around!
[08:54] Nagakura
Whatever happens, being ready to die
is something I prepared for a long time ago!
[09:04] Sannan
In our current circumstances,
[09:06] Sannan
losing any one of our top
officers would be problematic.
[09:11] Sannan
I pray that my goodwill will not be wasted.
[09:40] Saito
As for me...
[09:42] Saito
giving my life for that which I believe
in is my most cherished desire.
[10:00] Harada
Once he's caught up in something,
a man has a duty to see it through.
[10:14] Inoue
The Shinsengumi has grown quite large.
[10:19] Inoue
To think that it's now the strongest force
supporting the shogunate...
[10:24] Hijikata
Yes.
[10:25] Inoue
I'm glad that both Soji
and Kondo-san are safe.
[10:31] Inoue
Taking responsibility for everything
yourself is a bad habit of yours.
[10:36] Inoue
When you're with me, at least,
you can go back to who you used to be.
[10:46] Hijikata
I...
[10:49] Hijikata
I may have forced something
unthinkable onto Kondo-san.
[10:54] Hijikata
These last five years...
[10:57] Hijikata
I forced the idea of a "true warrior,"
[10:59] Hijikata
something that doesn't exist
in this world, onto Kondo-san,
[11:03] Hijikata
leading us to meddling
with a medicine like this.
[11:08] Hijikata
And it isn't just Kondo-san.
[11:10] Hijikata
You, Gen-san, and all of them...
[11:13] Inoue
For me...
[11:14] Inoue
these five years since coming
to the capital have been like a dream.
[11:20] Inoue
There have been many
painful experiences, of course.
[11:23] Inoue
It wasn't all fun by any means.
[11:26] Inoue
Even so, for us,
who weren't born as warriors...
[11:33] Inoue
To be honest, I never
imagined we'd come this far.
[11:39] Inoue
It's incredible.
[11:41] Hijikata
Gen-san...
[11:44] Inoue
Beyond any doubt, everyone here
[11:48] Inoue
is a true warrior, a rarity in this world.
[11:55] Hijikata
Yes.
[12:05] Inoue
If someone like me can prove
useful in battle, then...
[12:11] Inoue
this can serve in place
of a protective talisman, I suppose.
[12:45] Chizuru
You're still awake?
[12:47] Hijikata
I should be asking you that.
[12:50] Chizuru
No, I was...
[12:54] Hijikata
Matsumoto-sensei is at Osaka Castle.
[12:56] Hijikata
I've made arrangements for
Kondo-san and Soji to go there.
[13:01] Chizuru
I see.
[13:03] Chizuru
Our facilities here aren't sufficient,
so I think that will be for the best.
[13:09] Hijiata
And you should—
[13:09] Chizuru
I...
[13:11] Chizuru
With your permission,
I would like to stay here.
[13:15] Chizuru
If Matsumoto-sensei will be
seeing to them in Osaka,
[13:19] Chizuru
then I'll stay here and look after everyone!
[13:23] Hijikata
You really are an Edo woman.
[13:27] Hijikata
All right.
[13:29] Hijikata
I'll be taking over command for Kondo-san.
[13:33] Hijikata
We have never once lost
a battle we've gotten involved in.
[13:37] Hijikata
And this battle is one
we absolutely cannot lose.
[13:43] Hijikata
I will not fail. The company...

[17:43] Todo
Why does it feel so good?
[17:56] Harada
Just as you start up the hill,
they fire from the sides.
[18:00] Saito
And the guns the Satsuma-Choshu
are using have a terribly long range.
[18:03] Saito
They're far away, but one out
of two shots is hitting its mark.

And the second unit?
What happened to Shinpachi?

They went to raid the enemy's stronghold,
the Gokogu Shrine, but...
[18:15] Harada
Sorry, Chizuru. Take care
of the rest after we get back.
[18:21] Hijikata
Where are you going?
[18:23] Harada
To assist Chinpachi, where else?
[18:24] Hijikata
Stop! Now isn't the time to move.
[18:26] Harada
What?
[18:30] Hijikata
If you go now, you'll only

I managed somehow.
[19:07] Harada
Around sunset, I really
thought I was going to die.
[19:12] Nagakura
The cannon fire stopped
in the middle of things,
[19:14] Nagakura
so we managed to make it back.
[19:17] Hijikata
I sent out the rasetsu squad.
[19:19] Hijikata
The bombardment stopped because
the rasetsu squad's attack was successful.
[19:24] Nagakura
I see.
[19:27] Saito
Vice-Commander, what do we do?
[19:31] Hijikata
Up until now, we've been mostly
fighting a defensive battle,
[19:34] Hijikata
but now that the sun's set,
their guns shouldn't be as accurate.
[19:37] Saito
If we're going to counterattack,
[19:39] Saito
then now, while the cannons
are stopped, is the only time.
[19:42] Hijikata
We'll take advantage of the darkness
to march on their main camp.
[19:46] Hijikata
It will be an all-out battle.

What's the situation?

The rasetsu squad's attack
has broken the enemy formation,

[21:26] Yamazaki
And they've resumed shooting again.
[21:28] Saito
That is much sooner than we'd anticipated.
[21:30] Harada
But how are they doing it in this darkness?
[21:32] Yamazaki
They've set fire to the surrounding homes,

[21:36] Yamazaki
I believe it will be difficult
to reach their camp.

[22:19] Chizuru
I will go.
[22:20] Harada
You, Chizuru?
[22:24] Inoue
I will go with her.
[22:25] Inoue
And it will be safer for her
than staying here, won't it?
[22:31] Hijikata
All right. I'll leave it to you.
[22:49] Inoue
Are you sure you're all right?
Shouldn't we rest a little?
[22:52] Chizuru
I'm fine. This is no time to be resting.

Seeing as they aren't wearing
kimono with work sleeves,

they're probably with the Todo faction.

We're from the Shinsengumi!

We're on our way to Yodo Castle!

Hey! Wait, Yukimura-kun.
[23:17] Chizuru
Weren't they on the shogunate's side?
[23:20] Inoue
They probably have been up until now.
[23:31] Inoue
Let's go back. It's dangerous.
[23:33] Chizuru
But Hijikata-san said to get reinforcements.
[23:36] Chizuru
They might have fired on us by mistake.
If we talk to them, then—

You need to stop!
[23:43] Inoue
I want to get reinforcements

However, I also have a duty to protect you.

I'm sorry.
[23:55] Chizuru
I couldn't do anything.
[24:00] Inoue
What are you saying?
We're talking about Toshi-san here.
[24:02] Inoue
He'll think up some outrageous scheme
to overturn this whole situation.
[24:11] Chizuru
Inoue-san, your hand is warm.
[24:16] Chizuru
It makes me remember that my father
often used to touch my shoulder.
[24:20] Inoue
Yes, well. I'm old enough that having
a daughter your age wouldn't be strange.
[24:26] Chizuru
I think I saw my father in you, Inoue-san.

We were suddenly shot at while on horseback!
[00:02] Yamada
I think tonight will be the crisis point.
[00:03] Okita
If Kondo-san dies,
it's your fault, Hijikata-san.
[00:07] Saito
Do not falter!
[00:08] Saito
Forward!
[00:10] Hijikata
I will not fail. The company...
[00:13] Hijikata
and you...
[00:14] Hijikata
I will protect you both.

Father...

Father!
[00:27] Chizuru
Father!
[00:30] Chizuru
It's you.
[00:35] Kodo
I'm sorry for not keeping in touch with you.
[00:37] Chizuru
Father, where have you been?
[00:41] Chizuru
No, more importantly, is it true
that you're involved with the rasetsu?
[00:47] Chizuru
Then, do you know a way to change them back?
[00:50] Kodo
It isn't possible to turn
a rasetsu back into a human.
[00:53] Kodo
But there isn't any need to do so.
[00:57] Kodo
The Water of Life is necessary for the
restoration of the Yukimura family.
[01:03] Kodo
I've come to get you.
[01:06] Chizuru
Father... what are you talking about?
[01:10] Kodo
From now on, you and
I will always be together.

Send word to Toshi. Hurry!

Blast it. Hey!
[01:45] Nagakura
Cannon fire has set the

[01:47] Nagakura
If we don't get out of here

[01:51] Yamazaki
Vice-Commander, it's urgent.
[02:00] Kodo
Chizuru?
[02:03] Chizuru
Why did you leave the Shinsengumi?
[02:10] Kodo
To perform an even bigger experiment.
[02:13] Kodo
The Satsuma said they'd provide the funds,
so I turned to them for help.
[02:18] Chizuru
In order to... restore the Yukimura family?
[02:23] Kodo
Yes.
[02:25] Kodo
Everyone living in this country
will be given the Water of Life.
[02:31] Kodo
If every human drinks the Water of Life,
there will be fewer injuries and diseases.
[02:35] Kodo
Many lives will be saved.
[02:38] Kodo
And...
[02:41] Kodo
with wars against other countries
rapidly approaching,

Come with me, Chizuru.
[02:59] Inoue
Yukimura-kun.
[03:02] Inoue
Go on ahead and rejoin Toshi-san.
[03:05] Inoue
I will keep him here.
[03:22] Chizuru
Rasetsu?
[03:24] Chizuru
But the sun is up.
[03:27] Kodo
Magnificent, isn't it?
[03:29] Kodo
I have perfected the Water of Life!
[03:32] Kodo
These rasetsu have overcome
the light of the sun.
[03:37] Kodo
With these rasetsu, regaining the
glory of our family will be simple.
[03:44] Inoue
Yukimura-kun, hurry up and go.
[03:45] Chizuru
You'll face this many alone? I'll—
[03:48] Inoue
Yukimura-kun.
[03:50] Inoue
Will you tell Toshi-san for me?
[03:55] Inoue
I'm sorry that I wasn't skilled enough.
[03:57] Inoue
I hope he will forgive me for not being
there with him at the end.
[04:02] Inoue
And, for giving me one last dream,
I can never thank him enough.
[04:08] Chizuru
Wait, please! My father
is here for me! So—
[04:11] Inoue
Hurry! Go!
[04:14] Chizuru
Inoue-san!
[04:24] Inoue
Halt!
[04:56] Chizuru
Inoue-san...
[04:57] Kodo
Come, Chizuru!
[04:59] Chizuru
No...
[05:02] Chizuru
I don't want to.
[05:04] Chizuru
I won't go with someone like you!
[05:10] Kodo
What an unreasonable child.
[05:13] Kodo
Any slight injuries will quickly heal.
[05:15] Kodo
Make her be silent!
[05:36] Kazuma
Contemptible vermin.
[05:38] Kodo
Kazama?
[05:45] Kazama
For the sake of your ridiculous plan,
[05:48] Kazama
you would use the blood of this precious,
pure-blooded female oni?
[05:53] Chizuru
What do you mean?
[05:55] Kazama
There is one difficulty with producing
a large quantity of the Water of Life.
[05:59] Kazama
The raw materials come from abroad.
[06:01] Kazama
Refining a large amount would be difficult.
[06:04] Kazama
But Kodo realized...
[06:06] Kazama
that the components of the Water of Life
[06:08] Kazama
could be cultured from the blood of a
pure-blooded oni woman, as they were similar.
[06:12] Chizuru
From my blood?
[06:18] Kodo
That's right.
[06:20] Kodo
I will squeeze as much blood
from you as possible
[06:24] Kodo
to make vast quantities
of the Water of Life.
[06:27] Kodo
If you hadn't done something so pointless
as coming to the capital,
[06:30] Kodo
I would have been able to
make use of you sooner.
[06:35] Chizuru
I...
[06:39] Chizuru
I came to the capital to look for you, Father!
Are you saying that was pointless?
[06:44] Chizuru
Are you? Are you, Father?
[06:46] Kazama
Kodo isn't your father.
[06:51] Chizuru
What?
[06:53] Kazama
Yukimura Kodo...
[06:56] Kazama
abducted you from the main
Yukimura house and raised you.
[06:59] Kazama
He's no father to you.
[07:01] Kazama
Kodo isn't like you, with your pure blood.
[07:04] Kazama
He's born of a branch of the Yukimura family
that has mixed with humans.
[07:08] Kazama
In order to extract as much blood
from you as possible,
[07:10] Kazama
he must have waited for you to grow up.
[07:13] Kodo
But it was I who raised you
until now. That is a fact.
[07:19] Kodo
Chizuru.
[07:20] Kodo
You're a good girl, so you'll help
with your father's plan, won't you?
[07:28] Kazama
Wait there.
[07:31] Kodo
Do you think you can win
against these numbers?
[08:07] Kodo
If things continue this way,
we oni will forever walk
[08:10] Kodo
in the shadows of this land
of the rising sun!
[08:12] Kodo
Our existence will not be acknowledged,
and if we step out of line, we'll be wiped out!
[08:16] Kodo
Are you saying that's how you want to live?!
[08:18] Kazama
That's enough foolish talk.
[08:23] Kodo
With enough power, it can be changed.
[08:25] Kodo
I can change it!
[08:49] Kazama
From this point forward,
we of the oni families...
[08:53] Kazama
will withdraw from the powers working
to overthrow the shogunate.
[08:57] Kazama
We've already more than repaid
our debts to the Satsuma.
[09:02] Kazama
And the promise of "until the shogunate
is toppled" is as good as kept.
[09:11] Kazama
You are the ones who have lost.
[09:14] Kazama
The Satsuma-Choshu forces have
raised the Imperial banner.
[09:17] Kazama
It's the symbol of the
Imperial Court's loyalist forces.
[09:20] Kazama
This is likely to cause...
[09:24] Kazama
many of the clans
to side with Satsuma-Choshu.
[09:26] Kazama
And now...
[09:28] Kazama
you have no reason to stay
with the Shinsengumi any longer.
[09:34] Kazama
Now... come with me.
[09:41] Chizuru
Even if I'm with you...
[09:47] Chizuru
It won't atone for the atrocities
my father has committed.
[09:53] Chizuru
And even if the Shinsengumi's
lot is a harsh one,
[09:57] Chizuru
I will stay until the end!
[09:59] Kazama
I thought you were smarter than this.
[10:04] Kazama
It seems you require some discipline.
[10:10] Chizuru
If the alternative is to let you do
whatever you want to me, then I'd rather...
[10:14] Hijikata
And who gave you permission
to do something like that?
[10:21] Hijikata
Don't go trying to throw your life away
where I can't see you.
[10:28] Hijikata
When I heard that the Yodo faction
switched to the Satsuma-Choshu side,
[10:31] Hijikata
I got a bad feeling about things, but...
[10:41] Kazama
I won't speak ill.
This is a favorable opportunity.
[10:46] Kazama
Leave this oni woman behind.
[10:50] Kazama
If you do...
[10:52] Kazama
I shall overlook these events here.
[10:56] Hijikata
That's advice I can't take.
[11:06] Hijikata
Both the company...
[11:09] Hijikata
and her...
[11:11] Hijikata
I will protect them.
[11:14] Hijikata
That's what I've resolved to do!
[11:38] Chizuru
Hijikata-san!
[11:46] Chizuru
Are you all right?
[11:47] Chizuru
Hijikata-san...
[11:49] Chizuru
Hijikata-san...
[11:50] Kazama
Spoiling things like that.
What a ridiculous interruption.
[12:00] Kazama
You're in the way.
[12:03] Hijikata
Stop!
[12:10] Kazama
The Water of Life again?
[12:12] Kazama
You fool.
[12:14] Hijikata
Fool? And what's wrong with that?
[12:23] Hijikata
We have always been a band of fools.
[12:27] Kazama
Even if you become a rasetsu,
you will be no more than a fake.
[12:31] Kazama
No match for an oni.
[12:33] Hijikata
That's something I won't know until I try!
[12:37] Chizuru
No!
[13:08] Hijikata
I can't hold back anymore.
[13:12] Hijikata
The cowards and the shogunate...
[13:16] Hijikata
and you rotten oni,
always getting in the way...
[13:20] Hijikata
Fakes, you say? And what of it?
[13:27] Hijikata
All this time, we've...
[13:29] Hijikata
we've been treated horribly,
as fake warriors.
[13:36] Hijikata
But you know...
[13:39] Hijikata
whether we're fakes or whatever else...
[13:43] Hijikata
if we keep to our principles,
we'll become the real thing!
[13:54] Hijikata
What's wrong? You're getting pushed back.
[14:04] Hijikata
How does it feel to be wounded by a fake?
[14:14] Kazama
You are the only one I will never forgive.
[14:37] Kazama
Rejoice, human.
[14:40] Kazama
For you will die the very same
moment you have seen a true oni!
[14:47] Hijikata
Blast it, you...
[15:07] Hijikata
Soji.
[15:08] Kazama
All these dirty fakes!
[15:14] Hijikata
Saito.
[15:28] Kazama
You lowly humans!
[15:45] Hijikata
Saito!
[15:49] Hijikata
Soji!
[15:58] Kazama
You seem to be under a misapprehension.
The Water of Life doesn't cure illnesses.
[16:03] Kazama
You are all fated to fall, like blossoms.
[16:07] Kazama
Receive your punishment
for losing yourself in being a fake.
[16:22] Okita
I told you, didn't I? Back at Ikedaya.
[16:26] Okita
Our enemies must die.
[16:38] Kazama
You dirty, little...
[17:10] Yamazaki
Yukimura-kun!
[17:12] Chizuru
Yamazaki-san.
[17:36] Kazama
This is the end.
[17:50] Hijikata
Yamazaki...
[17:53] Yamazaki
What kind of fighting
is that, Vice-Commander?
[18:04] Yamazaki
Losing yourself and charging in...
[18:08] Yamazaki
Even if it means using
other soldiers as a shield,
[18:13] Yamazaki
you must live and command...
[18:20] Hijikata
Yamazaki?
[18:36] Amagiri
Enough. Stop.
[18:38] Kazama
Amagiri.
[18:40] Amagiri
The Satsuma wish to overthrow
the shogunate by their own hand.
[18:44] Amagiri
To destroy the Shinsengumi now
would be to go against their will.
[18:49] Kazama
These dirty fakes injured me. Me!
[18:51] Kazama
And you're telling me to let them go?
[18:54] Amagiri
Oni are not supposed to involve themselves
in the governing of the human world.
[18:59] Amagiri
And now that we are finally on the verge
of repaying our debt of gratitude,
[19:02] Amagiri
we cannot afford to quarrel
with the Satsuma clan.
[19:06] Amagiri
You know that, too, don't you?
[19:18] Kazama
You called yourself Hijikata, didn't you?
[19:21] Kazama
We will finish this one day. Remember that.
[19:35] Chizuru
Hijikata-san!
[19:43] Chizuru
Yamazaki-san...
[19:45] Okita
Yamazaki...
[19:47] Hijikata
I never would have imagined that I...
[19:52] Hijikata
would end up sacrificing the life
of one of our soldiers to prolong my own.
[21:01] Chizuru
Father.
[21:20] Chizuru
I'm sorry, Hijikata-san.
[21:27] Hijikata
What is that apology for?
[21:31] Chizuru
I was so sure that the research...
[21:39] Chizuru
was something my father
was doing against his will...
[21:45] Chizuru
That there must have been some
kind of profound reason for it...
[21:51] Chizuru
I'd always believed that.
[21:54] Chizuru
And it gave my heart strength.
[21:59] Chizuru
But...
[22:02] Chizuru
My father was only using
everyone in the Shinsengumi!
[22:15] Hijikata
There's no reason for you to feel
responsible for those transgressions.
[22:21] Hijikata
Those of us left alive must finish the path
the ones who have died believed in.
[22:26] Hijikata
We have no other choice.
[22:33] Chizuru
Inoue-san...
[22:37] Chizuru
Before he died, he spoke.
[22:44] Chizuru
He hoped you'd forgive him for
not being with you until the end...
[22:50] Chizuru
and that, for letting him
have one last dream...
[22:55] Chizuru
he would never be able to thank you enough.
[23:05] Hijikata
Maybe it's because I've become a rasetsu...
[23:10] Hijikata
but today, the light of the sun
stings my eyes more than before.
[23:23] Hijikata
This time, we lost.
[23:31] Chizuru
I heard... that they will leave for Edo.
[23:36] Hijikata
We've had word from Kondo-san.
[23:40] Hijikata
Lord Yoshinobu...
[23:43] Hijikata
abandoned the shogunate's forces,
who had staked their lives on this fight,
[23:47] Hijikata
and ran away to play in Edo.
[23:51] Hijikata
But the moment you're really beaten isn't
when you suffer defeat in battle...
[24:00] Hijikata
It's when you lose heart.
[24:05] Chizuru
Yes, sir.
[24:08] Hijikata
We may have tasted defeat,
[24:10] Hijikata
but though our blades are broken
and dirtied with this crushing loss...
[24:13] Hijikata
even if we have to slurp up the mud...
[24:17] Hijikata
even if lose our comrades,
we will fight our way through.
[24:21] Hijikata
That is the Shinsengumi
we imagined for ourselves.
[24:34] Hijikata
Once we return to Edo,
we will begin the fight again.
