**[00:00] Hijikata**
Why do you have
the same powers as a rasetsu?
**[00:02] Hijikata**
Tell me the truth!
**[00:04] Chizuru**
And my father will know whether
there's a way to turn rasetsu back.
**[00:06] Kazama**
And that pure-blooded oni woman.
**[00:08] Kazama**
We cannot leave her among false oni forever.
**[00:13] Okita**
I'll cough up blood
and keep swinging my sword.
**[00:15] Chizuru**
Okita-san.
**[00:16] Okita**
A reward, for keeping it a secret.
***SIGN*** July, Keio Year 2 (1866)
**[00:31] Sannan**
I have created a few more successful cases.
**[00:35] Sannan**
I have put them under my command,
***SIGN*** Rasetsu Squad
**[00:42] Sannan**
and named them the rasetsu squad.
***SIGN*** Rasetsu Squad
Sannan Keisuke
Leader
**[00:48] Sannan**
The Shinsengumi have grown larger, however...
**[00:51] Sannan**
The Imperial Loyalists' movements
are likely to become more radical.
**[00:56] Sannan**
When that happens,
**[00:57] Sannan**
it's clear that the rasetsu will be
an even more necessary force.
**[01:02] Kondo**
Lord Aizu has great
expectations of us, but...
**[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.
**[01:29] Sannan**
Though those may be
the words of the shogun's doctor,
**[01:32] Sannan**
someone who isn't a soldier
has no right to interfere.
**[01:36] Kondo**
But, though this may seem to be successful,
**[01:39] Kondo**
it could be putting great stress on your body,
as Doctor Matsumoto—
**[01:41] Sannan**
I...
**[01:43] Sannan**
am in exceedingly good health.
**[01:49] Sannan**
If we have suppressed
the blood-seeking side effect,
**[01:52] Sannan**
then this should be something we can use.
**[01:57] Hijikata**
It's true that we need strength.
**[02:01] Kondo**
Toshi.
**[02:03] Hijikata**
Now that we are finally being acknowledged,
**[02:06] Hijikata**
making our presence known
is the most important thing.
**[02:09] Hijikata**
There's no mistake about that.
**[02:11] Sannan**
Exactly.
**[02:13] Sannan**
And the things we must be careful of...
**[02:17] Sannan**
do not lie only outside our company.
**[02:19] Sannan**
Even as they are members of the Shinsengumi,
**[02:21] Sannan**
there are those who repeatedly
criticize the shogunate.
**[02:26] Hijikata**
We've come this far...
**[02:28] Hijikata**
We aren't going to stop now.

**[02:53] Nagakura**
What is all this?
**[02:55] Nagakura**
Our troop's gotten huge,
**[02:57] Nagakura**
so I know things aren't like before. I do!
**[03:00] Nagakura**
But still...
**[03:01] Nagakura**
Just because we've known
each other for so long
**[03:03] Nagakura**
doesn't mean Hijikata-san should
treat us like this, right?
**[03:05] Nagakura**
Nagging and nagging over
little, stupid stuff...
**[03:08] Harada**
Hijikata-san must have a plan.
**[03:10] Nagakura**
And he doesn't say anything to Ito-san!
**[03:13] Nagakura**
That rat Ito's scurrying around,
gathering up allies.
**[03:16] Nagakura**
He needs to say something!
**[03:18] Nagakura**
How's he the "Demon Vice-Commander"?
**[03:20] Harada**
You've got a lot pent up, huh?
**[03:21] Nagakura**
And most of all!
**[03:23] Nagakura**
That medicine made
of who knows what, I just—
**[03:26] Harada**
Stop!
**[03:29] Harada**
Not here.
**[03:31] Nagakura**
Don't yell.
**[03:33] Nagakura**
I just want it to be more...
**[03:37] Nagakura**
You know, the people we've been comrades
with since forever. Right, Heisuke?
**[03:40] Harada**
He's not here.
**[03:42] Nagakura**
Why? Why isn't Heisuke here?
**[03:45] Harada**
Don't ask me!
**[03:46] Nagakura**
Heisuke should be here, right?
**[03:47] Harada**
Go say that to Heisuke!
**[03:50] Nagakura**
Blast it! He must be in Shimahara!
**[03:52] Nagakura**
Shimahara!
**[03:55] Harada**
He yells too much.
**[04:08] Ito**
It seems we're all here.
**[04:11] Sasabara**
Yes, sir.
**[04:29] Harada**
Shinpachi.
**[04:37] Saito**
What's wrong?
**[04:39] Chizuru**
Oh, nothing.
**[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...
**[05:14] Saito**
If not for them being
the kind of men they are,
**[05:16] Saito**
I would not be here, as a warrior.
**[05:22] Saito**
I am something which should
not exist in this world,
**[05:23] Saito**
a swordsman who has strayed
from the true path, fighting left-handed.
**[05:26] Saito**
And though I'm like this,
**[05:28] Saito**
Hijikata-san acknowledged my
strength, even my abilities.
**[05:39] Chizuru**
I see.
**[05:45] Saito**
For me, there is only this.
**[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.
**[06:13] Saito**
That's who he is.
**[06:15] Saito**
The Water of Life. He is more opposed
to it than anyone, but...
**[06:20] Saito**
if he denounces the Water of Life now...
**[06:23] Saito**
he would end up robbing Lt. Commander Sannan
of his reason for existing.
**[06:27] Saito**
That's why he accepts it and
tries to move forward in spite of it.
**[06:35] Saito**
No matter how much this
company may change...
**[06:39] Saito**
that man will never...
***SIGN*** September, Keio Year 2 (1866)
**[07:06] ---**
Kyoto Defense Force
Under the auspices of the Aizu
Shinsengumi Troop Headquarters
**[07:07] Kondo**
With Lord Iemochi's passing, the Choshu
have dealt a blow to the shogunate.
**[07:11] Kondo**
I'm sure you are all aware.
**[07:14] Kondo**
Perhaps as a result of that, the edict board
listing the crimes of the Choshu
**[07:17] Kondo**
which was posted on the Sanjo Ohashi Bridge
was torn down and thrown into the Kamo River.
**[07:21] Kondo**
The work of a band of scoundrels.
**[07:22] Kondo**
And so,
**[07:23] Kondo**
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
**[16:18] Ito**
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)
**[17:49] Kondo**
The Goryo-eishi.
**[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...
