[00:02] Kazama     You who will become my wife, oni woman. [00:04] Hijikata     We're known as the Miburo,     the Wolves of Mibu, and this is our den. [00:06] Hijikata     I won't hand her over so easily! [00:08] Chizuru     I will not go with you. [00:10] Chizuru     Please leave! [00:11] Saito     Ito's faction... [00:13] Saito     is planning the assassination     of the commander of the Shinsengumi. [00:17] Okita     Of Kondo-san? [00:21] Hijikata     Ito Kashitaro. [00:24] Hijikata     That man will die. [00:29] Hijikata     And we will cut down     everyone in the Goryo-eishi. [00:31] Hijikata     The units will be led     by Shinpachi and Harada. [00:34] Hijikata     The Goryo-eishi end here. [00:37] Hijikata     Anyone who wants to turn back,     this is your last chance. [00:40] Chizuru     What about Heisuke-kun? [00:42] Chizuru     The Goryo-eishi's Heisuke-kun...     What will you do about him? [00:52] Hijikata     If he defies us, we'll cut him down. [01:01] Hijikata     I will tell you the plan in due course. [01:05] Chizuru     Wait, please! [01:07] Chizuru     But... Heisuke-kun is a friend,     someone who spent so much time with us... [01:23] Chizuru     Someone who's left the company... [01:25] Chizuru     isn't a comrade anymore, so... [01:31] Chizuru     it doesn't matter if they die? [01:33] Chizuru     Is that what he's saying? [01:34] Kondo     Of course not! [01:39] Kondo     Even Toshi, in his heart... [01:42] Kondo     After issuing an order to kill a friend... [01:47] Kondo     Of course he's not all right! [01:54] Chizuru     I'm very sorry. [02:03] Kondo     No... Heisuke is much loved. [02:13] Kondo     I ask this not as your commander,     but as Kondo Isami. [02:19] Kondo     Heisuke... Can't you please just let him go? [02:25] Kondo     If it's possible, I want you to convince     him to come back to the company. [02:29] Kondo     I beg of you! [02:32] Harada     We understand. [02:36] Harada     So does Hijikata-san. [02:40] Harada     I'm sure that's why he picked us. [02:45] Okita     Hijikata-san. [02:50] Okita     Who should I cut down? [02:56] Hijikata     You should sleep.     You're not feeling well, right? [03:02] Okita     We're going to assassinate     those who plan to kill Kondo-san, [03:05] Okita     but you're not giving me a place to shine. [03:12] Okita     I resent this, Hijikata-san.

[03:59] Okita     Hajime-kun, would you drink     the Water of Life? [04:03] Saito     Whether I drink the Water of Life or not,     what I must do would remain the same: [04:06] Saito     use this katana to cut down the enemy.     Then, one day, fall to the sword. [04:10] Saito     That is all. [04:14] Okita     That's true. [04:18] Saito     Starting now, guard duties will     take me away from the command post. [04:22] Okita     Well, to the troops, it looks like you left,     then came back from the Ito faction. [04:27] Saito     Until things calm down, I cannot stay here. [04:31] Okita     Yes. [04:32] Saito     That is why... [04:38] Saito     You must hurry up and heal yourself. [04:44] Okita     You don't have to tell me that. I know.

SIGN    November 18th, Keio Year 3 (1867) [07:11] Yamazaki     Excuse me. [07:13] Yamazaki     Ito has been successfully assassinated. [07:15] Yamazaki     Just as the Vice-Commander planned, [07:16] Yamazaki     we've left the corpse     at the Shijo-Aburanokoji intersection [07:18] Yamazaki     to lure in the Goryo-eishi. [07:20] Hijikata     All right. [07:21] Hijikata     Yamazaki, return to Aburakoji     and keep watch on the situation. [07:24] Shimada     Vice-Commander! [07:33] Hijikata     At a time like this... [07:46] Hijikata     Gen-san, Shimada, stay here     at the command post and gather the troops. [07:48] Hijikata     Search the grounds.     If you find Kazama, send word to me. [07:51] Inoue     Understood! [07:51] Shimada     Sir! [07:55] Hijikata     And you, don't leave my side. [07:58] Chizuru     Yes, sir. [08:02] Sasabara     Master Ito! [08:06] Sasabara     Master Ito... [08:09] Sasabara     Hurry! [08:10] soldiers     Sir! [08:26] Sasabara     So it was you lot who did this... [08:32] Sasabara     What are you doing, Todo? [08:34] Sasabara     Draw your sword! [08:37] Sasabara     Todo! [08:39] Todo     What am I supposed to do     with something like this? [08:44] Todo     I thought if I followed Ito-san,     he'd lead us in the right direction. [08:50] Todo     And that crazy medicine... [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... [09:26] Harada     Heisuke... [09:35] Sasabara     You rat... [09:37] Todo     This is all wrong! [09:40] Todo     Setting up Sano-san as Sakamoto's killer! [09:43] Todo     Doubting Satsuma     and trying to kill Kondo-san! [09:46] Todo     It's wrong, no matter     how you think about it! [09:50] Todo     I've thought about it,     and I think it's all crazy. [09:57] Shiranui     Oh, that's enough already. [09:59] Shiranui     We've had our fill of the sob story. [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! [11:01] Yamazaki     Vice-Commander! [11:02] Yamazaki     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? [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! [12:26] Chizuru     Sannan-san! [12:28] Kazama     It's taken you quite a while. [12:31] Chizuru     Are you all right? [12:42] Kazama     Remember this. [12:43] Kazama     This is the fate of the impostors. [12:49] Nagakura     Yamazaki! [12:51] Nagakura     Anyone! [12:52] Nagakura     Get a doctor! It's Heisuke! [12:55] Nagakura     Don't you die! Don't you die, Heisuke! [12:58] Harada     Heisuke! [12:59] Nagakura     Heisuke! [13:01] Nagakura     I'm gonna kill you, understand?! [13:04] Kazama     Today, I was simply here to buy time. [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? [13:38] Yamazaki     This is... beyond our help. [13:45] Nagakura     Heisuke! Stay strong! [13:49] Chizuru     No! Heisuke-kun! [13:53] Todo     This is so pathetic. [14:00] Todo     I'm fine. Don't worry about me. [14:09] Chizuru     Heisuke-kun! [14:11] Sannan     If there is nothing that can be done, [14:14] Sannan     then please, entrust it to me     and leave this place. [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. [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.

[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. SIGN    Preview [24:57] Shimada     We were suddenly shot at while on horseback!
