[00:20] ---
    You're a little... too... heavy.
[00:26] ---
    You okay, Souji?
[00:28] ---
    Oh, please, Hijikata-san.
    Of course I am.
[00:32] ---
    Vice Commander!
[00:34] ---
    Sorry. We failed.
[00:36] ---
    Very well.
[00:37] ---
    Yoichi!
[00:40] ---
    Yamazaki, take over here.
[00:41] ---
    Sir.
[00:52] ---
    Aww, what a shame.
[00:55] ---
    I wanted to finish them off myself.
[00:59] ---
    Hajime-kun, its only
    in moments like this...
[01:02] ---
    ...that you work quickly.
[01:04] ---
    I merely acted to carry out my duties.
[01:15] ---
    Listen. Don't try to run.
[01:17] ---
    If you turn your back to me,
    I'll cut you down.
[01:20] ---
    Thinking back on it now,
    our encounter that night
[01:24] ---
    was the moment that
    transformed my destiny.
[01:29] ---
    From that day forward,
    I continued to search for
[01:33] ---
    my missing father, Kodo Yukimura,
    together with the Shinsengumi.
[01:38] ---
    Later, following the Ikeda-ya Incident,
    the Shinsengumi name spread far and wide.
[01:45] ---
    Growing in numbers after
    the Forbidden Gate Incident,
[01:48] ---
    the group left the cramped Yagi Mansion
[01:50] ---
    and moved their headquarters
    to Nishi Hogan-ji Temple.
[02:12] ---
    "Hakuoki"
[03:26] ---
    "June, Keio Year 1 (1865)"
[03:34] ---
    Don't lower your arms!
[03:36] ---
    Are you already that tired?
[03:39] ---
    Thus Tanabata... No. Alas, Tanabata...
[03:45] ---
    Hijikata-san, I've brought you tea.
[03:48] ---
    Sure.
[03:51] ---
    I'll leave the tea here.
[03:55] ---
    Hogyoku Poem Collection... Is that haiku?
[04:00] ---
    P-Pardon me! I saw the cover and just...
[04:04] ---
    You just what?
[04:05] ---
    Well, I mean...
[04:08] ---
    I just wondered if you like haiku.
[04:12] ---
    You look like you think that's strange.
[04:14] ---
    Yes... No! It's just that
    you always seem so busy
[04:20] ---
    and I've never seen you
    writing poetry before.
[04:25] ---
    The Tanabata Festival
    is coming up soon, isn't it?
[04:32] ---
    I'm sorry! I've said too much again!
[04:35] ---
    I don't know if I like haiku or not,
[04:37] ---
    but I always write them down
    when they pop into my head.
[04:41] ---
    That's all it is.
[04:44] ---
    Doesn't that mean you do like it?
[04:47] ---
    Okita-san!
[04:48] ---
    Right, Chizuru-chan?
[04:49] ---
    Yes.
[04:51] ---
    You know what they say:
    "The worse you are, the more you like it."
[04:54] ---
    Isn't that right, Hajime-kun?
[04:57] ---
    Just shut up, Souji!
[05:02] ---
    Shall we go then, Chizuru-chan?
[05:04] ---
    Looks like Hajime-kun
    has business with Hijikata-san.
[05:07] ---
    What did you want, anyway?
[05:09] ---
    Nothing at all. All right, let's go.
[05:12] ---
    Yes. Please excuse me.
[05:15] ---
    Chizuru-chan,
[05:16] ---
    did you see how mad Hijikata-san got
    when he realized the saying fit him?
[05:21] ---
    But people also say, "When you
    enjoy something, you do it well."
[05:25] ---
    Well, aren't you a positive thinker?
[05:31] ---
    They showed up again?
[05:33] ---
    Yes.
[05:34] ---
    Threatening merchants
    and ripping off valuables.
[05:37] ---
    It's the same style as before.
[05:39] ---
    But it appears they spoke
    with a western accent.
[05:42] ---
    Western accent?
[05:44] ---
    Since they weren't in uniform,
[05:47] ---
    the shop owner filed a report
    and confirmed that.
[05:50] ---
    So their goal isn't just theft?
[05:54] ---
    Most likely.
[05:56] ---
    Toshi, you around?
[05:57] ---
    Yeah, Kondou-san. Over here.
[06:01] ---
    Good news, Toshi!
[06:06] ---
    Lord Iemochi will be
    visiting the capital soon.
[06:10] ---
    He wants the Shinsengumi
    to serve as bodyguards.
[06:12] ---
    I got the orders directly
    from Lord Katamori.
[06:16] ---
    Even more reason to put out
    those annoying fires.
[06:20] ---
    Understood.
[06:21] ---
    I will tell everyone to be more vigilant
    than ever on their patrols.
[06:26] ---
    I'm counting on you.
[06:32] ---
    Did something happen?
[06:33] ---
    Yeah. There's a fake Shinsengumi.
[06:37] ---
    "A Summer Breeze in Grass,
    Time Vanished into the Clouds"
[06:47] ---
    Thank you very much.
[06:49] ---
    The uniforms you ordered
    will be ready by tomorrow.
[06:53] ---
    Yo, Heisuke! Chizuru!
[06:55] ---
    Out shopping? Good work.
[06:57] ---
    Harada-san!
[06:58] ---
    Oh, Sano-san.
[07:00] ---
    Damn it, if you were coming,
    why couldn't you show up sooner?
[07:05] ---
    Did something happen?
[07:07] ---
    They mistook Heisuke
    for a fake Shinsengumi?
[07:11] ---
    Yes.
[07:12] ---
    When we passed that store back there,
[07:14] ---
    we saw guys just walking away
    with rolls of fabric.
[07:17] ---
    I stepped in to help, but...
[07:20] ---
    I'm Heisuke Toudou, Captain of
    the 8th Division of the Shinsengumi!
[07:25] ---
    Shinsengumi my ass!
    You aren't even in uniform.
[07:28] ---
    You're one of those fake Shinsengumi!
[07:33] ---
    And they laughed at me!
[07:35] ---
    I tried to get them,
[07:36] ---
    but they slipped away
    when I was grabbing the fabric.
[07:39] ---
    How pathetic!
[07:42] ---
    They won't get off that easy next time!
[07:45] ---
    Oh, and Chizuru,
    I'll go with you again tomorrow.
[07:49] ---
    They might show up again.
[07:52] ---
    Heisuke, aren't you on patrol tomorrow?
[07:55] ---
    Oh, that's right...
[07:59] ---
    Chizuru, be careful tomorrow.
[08:00] ---
    I will.
[08:03] ---
    We're back.
[08:04] ---
    Sorry for the wait, Gen-san!
[08:06] ---
    Welcome home.
[08:10] ---
    Yukimura-kun always chooses
    the freshest items. That helps a lot!
[08:16] ---
    Okita-san? What's the matter?
[08:20] ---
    You were so late,
    I thought I'd fall asleep.
[08:23] ---
    I couldn't wait,
    so I just started drinking.
[08:27] ---
    On an empty stomach,
    it went straight to my head. Feels great!
[08:30] ---
    Yeah, but you're always
    drinking, Shinpatsu-san.
[08:33] ---
    Sweetfish? I'm itching
    to try my hand at it.
[08:36] ---
    It's all yours, Saito-san.
[08:40] ---
    Welcome home, Kondou-san.
[08:42] ---
    Hey!
[08:44] ---
    Oh, today is sweetfish?
    That's exciting, isn't it, Toshi?
[08:49] ---
    I suppose so.
[08:51] ---
    I'll prepare it straight away.
[08:53] ---
    Isami-san, Toshi-san,
    just wait a little longer.
[08:56] ---
    Thanks, Saito-kun, Gen-san!
[09:04] ---
    What're you doing
    getting drunk alone, Shinpachi?
[09:07] ---
    It's your fault for being late!
[09:19] ---
    Chizuru, I'll take
    the change to the treasurer.
[09:22] ---
    Thanks, Heisuke-kun.
[09:28] ---
    Sakai-kun?
[09:30] ---
    Ah, Toudou-san?
[09:32] ---
    I'll leave the receipt
    and change right here.
[09:35] ---
    I appreciate it.
[09:40] ---
    Is this all of it?
[09:43] ---
    Well, yeah.
[09:46] ---
    It isn't enough.
[09:47] ---
    I gave you all of it. See?
[09:51] ---
    Oh man, sorry! There was more.
[09:56] ---
    Return confirmed.
[09:58] ---
    Hey there, Heisuke. You sure
    you didn't do that on purpose?
[10:01] ---
    Just gonna pocket the change, huh?
[10:05] ---
    Shinpatsu-san, Sano-san,
    you guys are awful!
[10:07] ---
    I know my wallet is
    a little light right now...
[10:11] ---
    What do you want, anyway?
[10:13] ---
    You were late, so we came
    to get you, of course.
[10:16] ---
    What are you talking about?
[10:18] ---
    We ran out of booze,
    so we have to go out drinking!
[10:23] ---
    I just said I've got no money.
[10:25] ---
    There is money!
    That's what Sakai-kun is here for.
[10:29] ---
    Our young frontrunner in battle
    wouldn't chicken out now, would he?
[10:33] ---
    Sakai-kun...?
[10:37] ---
    Understood.
[10:39] ---
    However, I'm deducting the amount
    from your next paycheck.
[10:42] ---
    --All right!
    --Yeah! We got it!
[10:44] ---
    Thanks, Sakai-kun.
    We won't forget it, man.
[10:46] ---
    I guess you three
    won't need any sweetfish.
[10:49] ---
    Looks like you'll get
    a piece, then. Lucky thing.
[10:53] ---
    Huh? I never said I wasn't eating, Souji.
[10:56] ---
    I like sweetfish, too.
    I'll eat before I go out!
[10:59] ---
    So, we go out after eating?
[11:01] ---
    --Sure.
    --Hey!
[11:03] ---
    You better be back before curfew!
[11:05] ---
    What about your meal, Hijikata-san?
[11:08] ---
    I'll eat afterward.
[11:10] ---
    But sweetfish is so much better
    hot off the grill...
[11:13] ---
    Yukimura-kun, would you go
    call everyone to dinner?
[11:17] ---
    Yes.
[11:18] ---
    Everyone, it's time to eat!
[11:28] ---
    My word, how lively!
[11:31] ---
    Aren't you all having a good time?
[11:33] ---
    Oh, Itou-san!
[11:34] ---
    Why don't you join us for once?
[11:37] ---
    I wouldn't think of turning down
    an invitation from you, Kondou-san.
[11:41] ---
    I haven't seen much of you all recently,
    so I'm happy to join.
[11:45] ---
    Please excuse me.
[11:47] ---
    Sure, have a seat!
[11:50] ---
    Did it just get stuffy in here?
[11:54] ---
    Here you go.
[11:55] ---
    Well, thank you! Don't mind if I do.
[11:58] ---
    Hajime-kun, this stew is delicious.
[12:00] ---
    Yeah. Gen-san made that.
[12:12] ---
    Yukimura?
[12:22] ---
    You're letting us go?
[12:24] ---
    We're in your debt.
[12:26] ---
    Thanks.
[12:38] ---
    What happened here, Sannan-san?
[12:41] ---
    You have my sincere apologies.
[12:43] ---
    By the time I noticed, the four
    Fury soldiers had already escaped.
[12:48] ---
    Sannan-san, your dinner--
[12:49] ---
    You get the hell out of here!
[12:51] ---
    Y-Yes!
[12:54] ---
    I'll leave it right here.
[12:59] ---
    I am certain I locked it this morning.
[13:02] ---
    I cannot imagine them
    breaking out on their own.
[13:07] ---
    Which means the unthinkable...
[13:09] ---
    At any rate, capturing the escapees
    quickly must be our top priority now.
[13:14] ---
    You are right.
[13:18] ---
    Listen. Search for those four Furies
    and bring them back immediately.
[13:23] ---
    But if they resist,
    we can kill them, right?
[13:26] ---
    It cannot be helped.
[13:28] ---
    We've gradually improved
    the medicine, but...
[13:31] ---
    ...once the thirst for blood
    overpowers their reasoning,
[13:34] ---
    they'll be too much to handle.
[13:37] ---
    However, Furies sleep during
    the day, so they don't move then.
[13:40] ---
    To find them, you must blend into
    the night and face them in the darkness.
[13:45] ---
    Can I count on you all?
[13:47] ---
    Yes.
[13:49] ---
    Do not speak of this to anyone.
[13:51] ---
    You must not draw attention to yourselves.
[13:53] ---
    All right with you, Kondou-san?
[13:55] ---
    Yeah.
[14:00] ---
    Wake up, Heisuke-kun! Harada-san!
[14:04] ---
    Nagakura-san!
[14:05] ---
    They completely broke curfew, didn't they?
[14:09] ---
    You idiots!
[14:11] ---
    What the hell were you doing until now?!
[14:14] ---
    Your voice is so loud...
[14:15] ---
    --In that case, Sakai-kun,
    --What the hell are you always thinking?!
[14:17] ---
    --will you go along
    to pick up the uniforms
    --What the hell are you always thinking?!
[14:20] ---
    --so Yukimura-kun
    doesn't have to do it alone?
    --Heisuke, you have patrol duty today!
[14:23] ---
    --Very well.
    --I know! That's why we came back!
[14:24] ---
    --We'll be back later.
    --I know! That's why we came back!
[14:29] ---
    Chizuru-chan.
[14:30] ---
    The First Division will join you
    since we're on patrol anyway.
[14:34] ---
    All right.
[14:46] ---
    Recently, it feels like
    we're getting a lot of cold stares.
[14:50] ---
    Y-Yeah.
[14:52] ---
    So what?
[14:53] ---
    It just means the Shinsengumi
    is that well-known.
[14:56] ---
    I suppose so.
[14:58] ---
    I do still feel proud every time
    I put on this uniform.
[15:03] ---
    You're Sakai-kun, right?
[15:05] ---
    I'm glad you feel that way.
[15:07] ---
    Absolutely.
[15:08] ---
    Even though I chose to live by the sword,
[15:10] ---
    there aren't many places
    where I can put my skills to use.
[15:14] ---
    This way, I can even earn some money
    to send to my parents in the country.
[15:18] ---
    To your parents?
[15:20] ---
    Yeah.
[15:21] ---
    I don't have any siblings,
    so if I can't live nearby,
[15:24] ---
    I feel it's the least I can do.
[15:27] ---
    I'm an only child, too,
    but have no way to repay my father.
[15:32] ---
    You're a good person, Sakai-san.
[15:33] ---
    I don't know about that...
[15:35] ---
    If you have parents,
    you help your parents.
[15:37] ---
    If you have friends,
    you help your friends.
[15:40] ---
    Doesn't everyone do their best
    to support somebody?
[15:43] ---
    That means you too, Okita-san.
[15:46] ---
    You don't know me well enough to say that.
[15:48] ---
    Ah, I'm sorry.
[15:51] ---
    I want to do my best to help
    the Shinsengumi, too.
[15:54] ---
    Good for you.
[15:55] ---
    "Fabrics"
[15:58] ---
    We're going to make our rounds.
    You two wait here.
[16:02] ---
    All right. Thank you, as always.
[16:05] ---
    I'm not doing this for you.
    We just need to get those uniforms.
[16:09] ---
    Oh. Right.
[16:18] ---
    Excuse me.
[16:19] ---
    "Thriving Business"
[16:22] ---
    Pardon me, is anyone here?
[16:29] ---
    Hey, yeah. Come on in.
[16:32] ---
    What'd ya need, again?
[16:33] ---
    We've come to pick up
    the uniforms we ordered.
[16:36] ---
    Ah, they aren't ready yet.
[16:39] ---
    Why don't ya leave for today
    and come back another time?
[16:43] ---
    The agreement was for today, though.
[16:46] ---
    Would you mind calling the manager?
[16:48] ---
    Sorry, but he's out right now.
[16:52] ---
    Sakai-san.
[16:55] ---
    I guess it can't be helped, then.
    We'll return another time.
[16:58] ---
    Let's go, Yukimura-kun.
[17:00] ---
    Oh... yes.
[17:06] ---
    --Wait!
    --Yukimura-kun, run!
[17:08] ---
    Okay!
[17:11] ---
    Well, if it isn't the fake
    Shinsengumi from yesterday.
[17:15] ---
    Where's youse think
    you goin' in such a hurry?
[17:18] ---
    Kill 'em!
[17:22] ---
    Yukimura-kun!
[17:31] ---
    What the...?
[17:33] ---
    --Yukimura-kun!
    --Hold it!
[17:38] ---
    Sakai-san!
[17:39] ---
    Run! Quick!
[17:42] ---
    But...!
[17:55] ---
    Let's go, Yukimura-kun!
[17:57] ---
    Okay.
[18:06] ---
    What the hell ya doin'?!
[18:08] ---
    Why ain't you chasin' em?
[18:10] ---
    Ain't no way I was beatin' that guy.
[18:13] ---
    But now, maybe I got a chance.
[18:16] ---
    All righty, I'm off to kill.
[18:20] ---
    Yukimura-kun, at least... yourself...
[18:23] ---
    I will not leave you, Sakai-san!
[18:26] ---
    Tell Okita-san and
    the others what happened.
[18:29] ---
    A blood trail.
[18:31] ---
    Yeah. He must be nearby.
[18:33] ---
    Where is he?
[18:35] ---
    --Hurry!
    --Keep looking.
[18:37] ---
    I promise to return. Stay right here!
[18:48] ---
    There he is! Don't let him get away!
[19:02] ---
    Father...
[19:03] ---
    Mother...
[19:10] ---
    Yukimura-kun...?
[19:12] ---
    It's all right now.
[19:14] ---
    If you drink this, you'll survive.
[19:25] ---
    Yukimura-kun and Sakai-kun are missing?
[19:30] ---
    When we raced back,
[19:32] ---
    the store employees were all
    in the back room, dead...
[19:37] ---
    ...and the uniforms had been stolen.
[19:41] ---
    Weren't you supposed
    to be with them, Souji?
[19:43] ---
    Cool it, Heisuke.
[19:46] ---
    It's fine, Sano-san.
    I'm wondering the same thing.
[19:49] ---
    Why didn't I at least go into the shop?
[19:52] ---
    I would've killed them all!
[19:54] ---
    You're right. I'm sorry.
[19:57] ---
    I was supposed to go with them, too.
[19:59] ---
    Vice Commander, if I may?
[20:01] ---
    Is that you, Yamazaki? Enter.
[20:04] ---
    Please excuse me.
[20:07] ---
    It seems the men in the sword fight
    were ronin and speaking in Tosa dialect.
[20:12] ---
    Tosa dialect?
[20:14] ---
    There sure are a lot of people coming from
    the west to imitate the Shinsengumi.
[20:19] ---
    Indeed.
[20:20] ---
    Fine, but let's split up
    and search for Chizuru again!
[20:23] ---
    No. We've been entrusted
    as Lord Iemochi's escorts.
[20:26] ---
    We can't make this incident public.
[20:31] ---
    Toshi-san...
[20:32] ---
    If these enemies simply held
    a grudge against the Shinsengumi,
[20:36] ---
    they would have killed them there
    and the bodies would already be found.
[20:40] ---
    So since they haven't been found,
[20:42] ---
    it means Chizuru and Sakai
    are either hiding, or were abducted?
[20:46] ---
    Yes.
[20:47] ---
    We'll have inspectors search for them.
[20:49] ---
    Meanwhile, just carry out
    your squad duties as normal.
[20:53] ---
    That is all.
[20:54] ---
    Are you serious, Hijikata-san?
[20:59] ---
    You think he's the type to joke?
[21:07] ---
    Yamazaki.
[21:09] ---
    Take care of it.
[21:10] ---
    Yes, sir.
[21:12] ---
    Let's go, Heisuke. You too, Shinpachi.
[21:18] ---
    Toshi-san, is this really the best way?
[21:20] ---
    Yeah.
[21:25] ---
    The Tanabata Festival
    is coming up soon, isn't it?
[21:35] ---
    Nobody would last long
    after losing this much.
[21:39] ---
    Chizuru...
[21:40] ---
    Ouch! What the hell, man?!
[21:42] ---
    Quit talking out of your ass!
[21:44] ---
    We don't know if that's Chizuru's!
[21:47] ---
    --Anyway, let's get searching.
    --Yeah.
[21:50] ---
    Heisuke, take Kamogawa.
    Shinpachi, go west. I'll search the north.
[21:53] ---
    --Got it.
    --Okay.
[21:55] ---
    Chizuru! Sakai-kun!
[21:59] ---
    You open?
[22:00] ---
    --Sure. How many?
    --Two.
[22:03] ---
    Come on in. I'll open up.
[22:06] ---
    Thank you, as always.
[22:08] ---
    I'm not doing this for you...
[22:13] ---
    Today was pretty good, eh?
[22:15] ---
    Oh, for sure.
[22:18] ---
    That there's Okita, the Shinsengumi!
[22:20] ---
    Hey, fellas...
[22:24] ---
    Stop! Wait up!
[22:34] ---
    Well, isn't that too bad.
[22:36] ---
    This is a dead end.
[22:38] ---
    You know something, don't you?
[22:41] ---
    If you don't spit it out, I'll kill you!
[22:44] ---
    You government dog!
[22:56] ---
    Stay out of my way, Hajime-kun.
[22:59] ---
    If you kill them, they'll never give you
    information about Yukimura or the Furies.
[23:04] ---
    I don't give a damn about the Furies.
    That's Hijikata-san's fault, anyway.
[23:11] ---
    Souji, you need to calm down.
[23:14] ---
    "Calm down"? She could be killed
    while we're out here talking!
[23:19] ---
    Hajime-kun, you should just do
    what Hijikata-san told you.
[23:24] ---
    I'll find her myself.
[23:38] ---
    "Udon"
[23:38] ---
    Here you go.
[23:40] ---
    I'll leave the money here.
[23:41] ---
    Thank ya kindly.
[23:43] ---
    Yukimura...?
[23:54] ---
    --Gi-Give us blood!
    --W-Wait!
[23:56] ---
    Calm down! I'll go get the medicine!
[23:58] ---
    Looks like you're in trouble.
[24:01] ---
    It's you! Good thing you're here.
[24:03] ---
    Quick, give them some of that medicine!
[24:06] ---
    Why don't you let them drink
    real blood for once?
[24:09] ---
    Don't be an idiot!
    What the hell you thinking?
[24:12] ---
    A posse from the Shinsengumi
    is posted out front.
[24:15] ---
    What?
[24:27] ---
    Yukimura-kun?
[24:29] ---
    Where is this?
[24:32] ---
    There's no mistake.
[24:34] ---
    These are the inspectors who
    searched the Tosa mansion yesterday.
[24:46] ---
    Thankfully, those things are
    taking care of the Shinsengumi for us.
[24:50] ---
    Shinsengumi?
[24:51] ---
    Next, it'll be your turn.
[26:43] ---
    What happened, Kazama?
[26:45] ---
    The Tosa Clan may be taking advantage
    of Shogun's trip to plot an assassination.
[26:50] ---
    We're being asked to investigate,
    and if it's true, put a stop to it.
[26:54] ---
    So what are we going to do?
[26:57] ---
    There's no other choice.
[26:58] ---
    We go to the capital.
[27:02] ---
    "Chapter 2 Preview"
[27:07] ---
    I swear I'll rescue Chizuru-chan.
[27:10] ---
    I've got to get back to everyone!
[27:12] ---
    We're just getting started.
[27:14] ---
    What in the world is happening to my body?
[27:17] ---
    Let's go, Heisuke.
[27:18] ---
    How dare you draw your sword on me.
[27:21] ---
    We'll finish off
    every single one of them...
[27:24] ---
    ...by our own hands.
[27:25] ---

    Hawk Moths at the Lantern"
