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.

[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! [10:30] troops     Sir! [10:31] Kondou     I am looking forward to     your achievements in the field. [10:39] Kondou     Shinsengumi! We depart for battle! [10:42] troops     Sir! SIGN    June 5th, Genji Year 1 (1864) SIGN    Hour of the Dog (7-9 PM) [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? SIGN    Ikedaya [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? [12:35] (Flashback) Hijikata     At Ikedaya. SIGN    Ikedaya [13:06] Okita     Clang, clang, ting, ting, ting.     Clang, ting, ting. [13:11] Okita     Clang, clang, ting, ting, ting.     Clang, ting, ting. [13:15] Okita     Clang, clang, ting, ting, ting.     Clang, ting, ting. [13:49] Kondou     It's Miyabe. I'm certain of it. [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! [18:30] Chizuru     I will!

[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.

[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.

[14:28] Hijikata     The ones using the temple and ministers [14:30] Hijikata     as a front to do whatever     they like are the Choshu.

[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!

[15:42] 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. [17:05] Okita     Please find a suitable reason      to drive that man out. [17:11] Nagakura     That jerk Heisuke.     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.

[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.

[11:44] Todo     Then why pretend that you're dead? [11:47] Sannan     Because I... [11:51] Sannan     am no longer human. [12:02] (Flashback) Hijikata     We can't let Ito and the others     find out about the Water of Life. [12:08] (Flashback) Todo     So, you did this to hide it from Ito-san? [12:13] (Flashback) Sannan     The research on the Water of Life is secret. [12:17] (Flashback) Sannan     Forced out of my position by Ito-san's     arrival, I attempted to desert. [12:22] (Flashback) Sannan     I was caught and committed ritual suicide. [12:25] (Flashback) Sannan     Every soldier who doesn't know     the situation, including Ito-san, [12:28] (Flashback) Sannan     will be given that explanation. [12:31] (Flashback) Kondo     The fact that Sannan-san     drank the Water of Life [12:35] (Flashback) Kondo     is something I plan to share only     with those I can trust absolutely. [12:41] (Flashback) Todo     Sannan-san... are you     really all right with this? [12:52] (Flashback) Sannan     As I am a successful example     of the medicine's use, [12:55] (Flashback) Sannan     I plan to manage the other rasetsu. [13:05] Chizuru     Welcome back. [13:07] Todo     Kondo-san... [13:09] Todo     He respects the shogunate, but... [13:14] Todo     when it comes to that medicine,      I feel like they're just using him. [13:19] Todo     I just can't accept that! [13:22] Chizuru     Yes. [13:26] Todo     Ito-san knows a lot about      governmental matters. [13:28] Todo     I thought that if he joined, he'd guide     the company in a good direction. [13:35] Todo     But... [13:39] Todo     if it was Ito-san's fault that Sannan-san     drank the Water of Life, then... [13:45] Todo     then it's my fault, too,     for bringing him here. [13:54] Chizuru     But if we go back to the beginning... [14:00] Chizuru     if my father... hadn't brought     that medicine here... [14:14] Sannan     Are you wondering if I've gone crazy or not? [14:19] Hijikata     The Water of Life isn't something     that humans should be toying with. [14:21] Sannan     But the Water of Life can become     the Shinsengumi's secret weapon. [14:34] Sannan     You know that, don't you? [14:41] Sannan     The other day, when Lord Iemochi     proceeded to the capital, [14:43] Sannan     we were entrusted with his protection. [14:45] Sannan     The Shinsengumi have grown great in stature. [14:49] Sannan     Just as you'd envisioned. [14:59] Sannan     The Demon Vice-Commander should be thinking [15:03] Sannan     about things much more important than me. SIGN    End of May, Keio Year 1 (1865) [15:16] Chizuru     I'm sorry, Okita-san! [15:18] Chizuru     There's something I must look into. [15:23] Chizuru     Excuse me. [15:25] Chizuru     A man with an Edo accent     who looks about forty, [15:29] Chizuru     and he's a doctor     who practices Western medicine... [15:34] Okita     I feel like I tell you all the time     not to go off and do things on your own. [15:39] Chizuru     I'm sorry. [15:41] Chizuru     I thought that a medicine shop     might know my father's whereabouts. [15:44] Okita     I think searching in a panic like     that is pretty pointless. [15:48] Okita     You've already looked thoroughly, after all. [16:00] Chizuru     Okita-san? [16:01] Okita     Stay back! [16:04] Okita     Just stay there. [16:16] Chizuru     Are you all right? [16:19] Okita     What do you mean? [16:20] Chizuru     What do I mean? [16:24] Okita     Anyway... stop going off     and doing things on your own. [16:42] Okita     Well, I've got things to do.

[17:21] Todo     Shinpachi, I think it's your head     you should have him take a look at. [17:24] Nagakura     Huh? [17:25] Matsumoto     Nagakura Shinpachi, healthy. Next! [17:28] Nagakura     Wait, Doctor! Come on, really look! [17:31] Saito     In an exam, the doctor looks at you.     It isn't about showing off for him. [17:35] Harada     Shinpachi, the line's getting backed up.     Hurry up and finish already. [17:45] Matsumoto     That's enough. [17:45] soldier     Thank you. SIGN    Soldiers' Medical Logs      Begun in March      Matsumoto Ryojun [17:49] Hijikata     Doctor Matsumoto! [17:51] Hijikata     I'm sorry, there's one more     person I'd like you to examine. [18:01] Chizuru     So everyone's having a medical exam. [18:05] Inoue     From a court physician Kondo-san met in Edo. [18:08] Chizuru     Really? [18:09] Kondo     Yukimura-kun! [18:11] Kondo     Do you have a moment? [18:18] Chizuru     I, um... [18:20] Kondo     When you came here,     you were looking for a person [18:23] Kondo     you thought might know where Kodo-san was. [18:26] Kondo     That person was Doctor Matsumoto, right? SIGN    Matsumoto Ryojun [18:29] Chizuru     This gentleman is... [18:32] Chizuru     Yes, thank you so much! [18:37] Chizuru     Doctor Matsumoto, about my father... [18:40] Matsumoto     I'm sorry. [18:44] Matsumoto     Unfortunately, I don't know     where Kodo-san is, either. [18:48] Chizuru     I see... [19:04] Kondo     Oh, Doctor. How did the exams go? [19:07] Matsumoto     Well... About that... [19:10] Matsumoto     From cuts to bowel pains, [19:12] Matsumoto     the total number of injured and sick     is nearly a third of your men. [19:16] Matsumoto     This place is like     a trade fair for illnesses! [19:19] Kondo     It can't be... [19:20] Matsumoto     Don't give me "it can't be," Kondo-san! [19:23] Matsumoto     First, you need to clean up     the command post. [19:26] Saito     Cleaning everything like     this feels very good. [19:29] Todo     Mice! Mice! [19:32] Todo     Sanosuke-san! Wait! [19:34] ---     Look! Look, mice! [19:37] Todo     Sanosuke-san! Look! [19:40] Harada     You! Stop it! [19:43] Saito     Don't run rampant right after we've cleaned! [19:45] Saito     You'll kick up dust! [19:50] Matsumoto     I'll start with my conclusion. [19:53] Matsumoto     You have pulmonary tuberculosis. [19:56] Okita     Is it? I thought so. [19:58] Okita     Well, that's a problem. [20:00] Matsumoto     It's no laughing matter. [20:02] Matsumoto     You must immediately quit     the Shinsengumi to convalesce. [20:04] Okita     I can't do that. [20:06] Matsumoto     If you don't, then one day you     won't even be able to get out of bed! [20:09] Okita     Then, until that day, I'll cough up blood     and keep swinging my sword. [20:14] Matsumoto     Why would you go so far? [20:17] Okita     I am the Sword of the Shinsengumi. [20:20] Okita     That is everything to me. [20:24] Okita     Please don't tell Kondo-san. [20:26] Okita     And please tell Hijikata-san it's just a cold. [20:33] Okita     I beg this of you. [20:39] Matsumoto     I suppose there are some things     that just can't be said. [20:43] Matsumoto     I have something I couldn't     reveal to that girl. [20:47] Matsumoto     I'd heard that Kodo-san was     with the Satsuma, but... [20:52] Matsumoto     apparently he disappeared     from there, as well. [20:54] Matsumoto     Perhaps he's no longer in this world. [21:02] Okita     The world just doesn't work     the way we'd like it to, does it? [21:08] Matsumoto     Well, I'll be going. [21:13] Okita     Chizuru-chan, come on out.     It's all right now. [21:26] Okita     You won't tell anyone, right? [21:31] Okita     If you plan to tell someone... [21:33] Okita     I might have to kill you. [21:39] Okita     I'm joking. [21:43] Chizuru     Okita-san. [21:46] Okita     A sword... doesn't think, you see? [21:51] Okita     It doesn't decide whether it should     or shouldn't cut down its opponent. [21:54] Okita     If Kondo-san gives me an order, [21:55] Okita     I'll cut down and kill anyone, no matter who. [21:58] Okita     That is my role. [22:00] Okita     That's the reason I'm here. [22:04] Okita     If I stop being needed, I... [22:10] Okita     I was wondering... [22:12] Okita     What do you think of my hair? [22:15] Chizuru     Huh? It... suits you. [22:17] Okita     This is me imitating Kondo-san. [22:20] Chizuru     Oh. Yes, the way you dress     your hair is the same. [22:23] Okita     Keep it a secret from the others. [22:27] Okita     So? Can you keep it a secret or can't you? [22:31] Chizuru     Um, yes. I will keep it a secret. [22:36] Okita     Chizuru-chan... You're nice     to everyone else and only cold to me. [22:41] Chizuru     That's not true! [22:43] Okita     You don't have to lie about it. [22:44] Chizuru     It's not like that! I'm not lying. [22:51] Okita     It's just a joke. No need to get so upset. [22:58] Okita     Then, here's a reward     for keeping it a secret. [23:07] Okita     Kondo-san gave it to me. [23:12] Okita     Now, then. [23:18] Chizuru     About your illness! [23:21] Chizuru     I won't tell anyone about that, either. [23:24] Okita     Thanks. [23:27] Okita     And no giving up. [23:29] Okita     About Kodo-san. Let's keep looking for him. [23:34] Chizuru     Thank you.

[24:01] Kazama     What do we do when the humans     themselves try to have us intervene? [24:06] Amagiri     Are you speaking of the Water of Life? [24:09] Kazama     In seeking power,     they would remake humans as oni. [24:18] Kazama     They must envy us. Envy our strength.

[01:06] (Flashback) Matsumoto     The plan involving     that medicine is a failure. [01:09] (Flashback) Matsumoto     It would be best not to continue it. [01:12] (Flashback) Kondo     But it's an order from the shogunate. [01:14] (Flashback) Kondo     And it was wisdom granted to us     to help compensate for our lack of men. [01:18] (Flashback) Matsumoto     It seems even the shogunate      has abandoned that plan. [01:24] (Flashback) Matsumoto     That medicine isn't something     humans are able to handle.

[04:42] Saito     Shinpachi is unhappy with the vice-commander,     who seems to have changed. [04:48] Saito     It's true that, as the Shinsengumi have grown,     they have changed greatly. [04:53] Chizuru     Is changing... a bad thing? [04:59] Saito     Shinpachi was drawn to the commander     and vice-commander's personalities. [05:03] Saito     He's been with them since they were in Edo. [05:06] Saito     All the more reason he cannot     forgive them for having changed. [05:12] Saito     And I, as well...

[05:47] Saito     I will live and die by the sword. [05:50] Saito     So I ask myself how I should live so that     I won't have regrets in my final moments. [05:55] Saito     For me, that is the only question. [06:02] Saito     Shinpachi is... [06:04] Saito     He probably feels like the vice-commander     has changed as the company has grown. [06:08] Saito     But the vice-commander has always changed      his thinking according to the situation at hand, [06:12] Saito     and made the best choice he can.

[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?

[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.

[13:34] 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.

[15:38] 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.

[18:03] Ito     joined the Shinsengumi out of     a heartfelt devotion to the emperor. [18:08] Ito     However...

[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.

[21:45] 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?

[22:41] 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...

[08:53] Todo     I thought no more of my friends     would have to be sacrificed to it! [08:57] Todo     But... [09:01] Todo     It's all out of control. [09:06] Todo     I realized that lately,     all I've thought about [09:09] Todo     is my time with the Shinsengumi. [09:15] Todo     All I've remembered are the good times... [09:21] Todo     I...

[10:01] Harada     Why are you guys here? [10:02] Shiranui     Hurry up and crush each other. [10:13] Sasabara     Why has the Satsuma faction surrounded us? [10:16] Sasabara     Is this a betrayal? [10:18] Amagiri     The Satsuma have never been     the allies of the Goryo-eishi. [10:23] Amagiri     Our goal is the removal of all who      obstruct our attack on the shogunate. [10:27] Nagakura     You meant for us to clash     with the Goryo-eishi so it'd crush us both? [10:32] Harada     We thought we'd trapped the Goryo-eishi, [10:34] Harada     but it looks like we're     the ones caught in a trap! [10:47] Todo     Guess I've got no choice. I'll help you out. [10:49] Nagakura     Took you long enough to make up     your mind, you complete idiot! [10:54] Harada     It's been a while since the three of us     fought with each other like this!

[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? [11:21] Shimada     Vice-Commander! [11:23] Shimada     We've found Kazama. [11:47] Harada     Against these numbers,     even retreating to the command post is... [11:49] Harada     We have to hold out     until reinforcements arrive! [11:51] Nagakura     Don't think you'll beat us     with just your numbers! [11:56] Nagakura     Starting with any of you     who want to die, come at me! [12:07] Saito     Sorry I'm late. [12:08] Nagakura     Right! We should be able to     make a path to retreat now. [12:13] Todo     Shinpachi-san, without me,     you're just way too awful. [12:21] Nagakura     Heisuke!

[13:07] Kazama     It was the wish of the faction     to whom I lend my aid. [13:11] Kazama     Now that it's done,     I have no reason to stay longer. [13:22] Nagakura     Heisuke, hang in there! [13:26] Chizuru     Heisuke-kun! [13:32] Todo     I messed up. [13:33] Harada     Idiot! Stop talking! [13:35] Chizuru     It's not as bad as it looks, is it?

[14:19] Nagakura     You can't be serious. [14:21] Nagakura     If Yamazaki can't do anything,     then... Hey! Anyone! [14:24] Nagakura     Please, get Matsumoto-sensei! [14:26] Nagakura     Hurry! [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." [17:49] Chizuru     I'll prepare your meal. [17:54] Todo     Thanks. [18:13] Harada     Thanks for your hard work. [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.

[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     Vice-Commander! [03:52] Sasahara     To think you'd take the trouble     of leaving your sickbed for us. [03:56] Sasahara     How convenient. [03:57] Sasahara     Okita! [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...

[13:15] 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.

[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. [18:07] Harada     And the second unit?     What happened to Shinpachi? [18:09] Inoue     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     increase the number of casualties! [18:37] Nagakura     Hey. [18:41] Nagakura     We're back. [18:45] Harada     Shinpachi... [18:47] Nagakura     Sano. [19:00] Nagakura     So you're still alive? [19:05] Harada     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. [19:47] Hijikata     Everyone rest until     the sun has completely set. [19:51] everyone     Sir! [19:54] Chizuru     Please have some. [19:56] soldiers     Thank you. My thanks.

You've been     holding back and not eating. [20:32] Chizuru     No, it should be you who eats it rather     than me, Hijikata-san. [20:48] Hijikata     Then this should be fine, right? [20:58] Chizuru     Thank you. [21:05] Chizuru     It's delicious. [21:07] Hijikata     When it comes to food,     make sure to eat your share. [21:10] Chizuru     Yes, sir. SIGN    Integrity [21:21] Hijikata     What's the situation? [21:22] Yamazaki     The rasetsu squad's attack     has broken the enemy formation, [21:24] Yamazaki     but it seems they've already     brought in reinforcements. [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,     and are using the flames for light. [21:36] Yamazaki     I believe it will be difficult     to reach their camp. [21:41] Harada     Hijikata-san, we don't have a chance now. [21:45] Yamazaki     Vice-Commander, your decision, please. [21:48] Inoue     Toshi-san. [21:52] Hijikata     I see. [21:55] Hijikata     It's no longer the age of the sword     and spear, is that it? [22:01] Hijikata     Now... [22:03] Hijikata     we retreat. [22:05] Hijikata     But we haven't lost yet.     We will repay them for this. [22:10] Hijikata     We'll start with the wounded     and move our forces. [22:12] Hijikata     I need someone who isn't injured to go     to Yodo Castle and request reinforcements. [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. [22:59] Inoue     Seeing as they aren't wearing     kimono with work sleeves, [23:01] Inoue     they're probably with the Todo faction. [23:04] Chizuru     We're from the Shinsengumi!

[23:36] Chizuru     They might have fired on us by mistake.     If we talk to them, then— [23:40] Inoue     You need to stop! [23:43] Inoue     I want to get reinforcements     for Hijikata-san, too. [23:47] Inoue     However, I also have a duty to protect you. [23:53] Chizuru     I'm sorry. [23:55] Chizuru     I couldn't do anything.

[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.

[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.
