**[00:18] Guy**
I beg you... Please give us some food!
**[00:20] Lady**
Please, some food...
**[00:22] Guy**
Send King Chu out here!
**[00:23] Guard**
Back off! Come any closer to
King Chu's castle and you'll pay!
**[00:30] Official1**
The people's revolt grows
more extreme by the day.
**[00:33] Official1**
Public order in Choka
continues to deteriorate.
**[00:35] Official2**
More soldiers have fled recently
as well. If this keeps up...
**[00:41] Official3**
News, Your Majesty.
**[00:43] Official3**
The Shu army has broken through Menchi
Castle and is advancing toward Choka!
**[00:47] Chu**
What?!
**[00:47] Official3**
They number... 250,000!
**[00:52] Official1**
Two hundred and fifty thousand?!
**[00:53] Chu**
How has this happened?
**[00:55] Chu**
What can I do?
**[00:57] Dakki**
King Chu, dear...
**[00:59] Dakki**
I'm back.
**[01:14] Koyuken**
Damn it!
**[01:15] Ohma**
Calm down, Koyuken.
**[01:17] Koyuken**
But when is Master Bunchu
going to come back?!
**[01:21] Ri Koha**
Maybe we should go to Kingo Island
ourselves and help him...
**[01:26] Yoshin**
Have you forgotten that Master Bunchu
entrusted us with the protection of Choka?
**[01:31] Ri Koha**
I know, but...
**[01:32] Yoshin**
We can't leave Choka now that
the Shu army is heading this way.
**[01:39] Ohma**
Besides, Dakki vanished, and we
have no idea when she'll return.
**[01:45] Dakki**
Oho?
**[01:47] Dakki**
Bunchu's scent is still
lingering here, of all places!
**[01:51] Four**
Dakki!
**[01:52] Ohma**
You dare return so nonchalantly to Yin?!
**[01:54] Dakki**
Oh, please, don't yell!
**[01:57] Ohma**
We won't allow you to stir up any more
trouble in Master Bunchu's beloved Yin!
**[02:01] Ohma**
We Shisei will get rid of you,
just like before!
**[02:05] Dakki**
Come to think of it, you four
did pick on me a long time ago.
**[02:10] Dakki**
So...
**[02:12] Dakki**
King Chu, dear! Come take care of these boys!
**[02:16] Ri Koha**
King Chu?!
**[02:39] Koyuken**
I-Impossible...
**[02:42] Yoshin**
What did she do to King Chu?
**[02:45] Ohma**
Master Bunchu... Forgive us...
**[03:03] Dakki**
It looks like King Chu won't
be of any use to me anymore.
**[03:11] Fugen**
Thanks to Dakki, the people
have no faith in Yin anymore.
**[03:15] Fugen**
The truth is that Yin is already done for.
**[03:19] Fugen**
So I have a suggestion.
**[03:21] Fugen**
Let's all work together to defeat
Dakki and cleanse the human world.
**[03:27] Fugen**
After that, we'll swear to never
go to the human world again.
**[03:32] Fugen**
What do you say?
**[03:33] Bunchu**
Fugen Shinjin, humans have a thing
called "order of precedence."
**[03:39] Bunchu**
And for me, Yin takes the number
one spot in that order.
**[03:44] Bunchu**
I have learned that both Kingo and Kongrong
**[03:49] Bunchu**
never have, and never will,
serve any purpose for Yin.
**[03:52] Bunchu**
That's why I will destroy them.
**[03:55] Bunchu**
Why do you and Taikobo fail to
understand something so simple?
**[04:00] Fugen**
* It's no use. I can't break*
* through such an iron will!*
**[04:04] Bunchu**
I'm through talking.
**[04:06] Bunchu**
Fugen Shinjin of the Twelve
Elite Sennin of Kongrong...
**[04:11] Bunchu**
Disappear along with your
unneeded Sennin world!
***SIGN*** HAKYU
***SIGN*** HOSHIN ENGI
**[05:52] Shinkohyo**
Bunchu has finally made his appearance.
***SIGN*** Battle to the Death
**[05:56] Shinkohyo**
With that, this delightful Great Sennin War
has entered its final act.
**[06:00] Kokutenko**
Which side do you think will win, Shinkohyo?
**[06:04] Shinkohyo**
Without a doubt, Bunchu will.
**[06:06] Kokutenko**
Huh?! But Kongrong still has Taikobo,
the rest of the Twelve Elite Sennin,
**[06:10] Kokutenko**
and even Ryukitsu Kosho!
**[06:12] Shinkohyo**
It's certainly true that he's outnumbered.
**[06:16] Shinkohyo**
But his power, as well as his love for Yin,
**[06:20] Shinkohyo**
will smash through even those numbers.
**[06:23] Shinkohyo**
Only...
**[06:25] Kokutenko**
Only?
**[06:37] (Flashback) Shinkohyo**
It's easy to break things,
**[06:40] (Flashback) Shinkohyo**
but restoring them to their
original state is much harder.
**[06:43] (Flashback) Shinkohyo**
Dakki has reduced Choka
to a badly broken state.
**[06:47] (Flashback) Shinkohyo**
Criminals running rampant,
public order at its worst...
**[06:51] (Flashback) Shinkohyo**
Women and children can't leave their homes,
**[06:53] (Flashback) Shinkohyo**
and spring seems to have
disappeared from the city.
**[06:57] (Flashback) Shinkohyo**
Bunchu, can you repair that?
**[07:02] (Flashback) Bunchu**
I don't need you to tell me that, clown.
**[07:05] (Flashback) Bunchu**
Yin will recover. That is certain.
**[07:07] (Flashback) Shinkohyo**
Will it really work out that well?
**[07:10] (Flashback) Shinkohyo**
With the Buseioh gone,
**[07:12] (Flashback) Shinkohyo**
you are basically the only
thing keeping Yin alive.
**[07:21] (Flashback) Shinkohyo**
I simply can't understand
**[07:24] (Flashback) Shinkohyo**
why you still cling to Yin so.
**[07:28] (Flashback) Shinkohyo**
Even if Yin, as a vessel, is lost,
**[07:30] (Flashback) Shinkohyo**
it will mean nothing to its people.
**[07:33] (Flashback) Shinkohyo**
In fact, as Taikobo says,
**[07:36] (Flashback) Shinkohyo**
the people already seek a
new vessel to replace Yin.
**[07:42] (Flashback) Bunchu**
Silence, Shinkohyo!
**[07:45] (Flashback) Bunchu**
Yin is as my own child.
**[07:49] (Flashback) Bunchu**
No parent would take joy in losing a child.
**[07:59] Bunchu**
* My relationship with Yin*
* began over 300 years ago.*
***SIGN*** Capital City Haku
**[08:09] Bunchu**
*When I was young, I had a rival.*
**[08:23] Bunchu**
*Shushi.*
**[08:24] Bunchu**
*Her strength equaled mine.*
**[08:33] Bunchu**
*Shushi wasn't particularly beautiful,*
**[08:35] Bunchu**
*and she was four years my senior.*
**[08:39] (Flashback) Shushi**
Bunchu, you and I have earned our place
as generals of Yin at such a young age.
**[08:45] (Flashback) Shushi**
It's a job that comes with responsibility.
**[08:46] (Flashback) Shushi**
Let's keep protecting Yin
together for all time.
**[08:52] (Flashback) Bunchu**
Yeah, let's.
**[08:55] Bunchu**
*But she had a cheerful, lively elegance*
**[08:59] Bunchu**
*that made her very charming.*
**[09:03] Bunchu**
* I thought she and I would remain*
* rivals until our deaths,*
**[09:08] Bunchu**
*but...*
**[09:13] (Flashback) Bunchu**
You're going to be queen?!
**[09:20] (Flashback) Shushi**
Well, it just means the king couldn't
pass up a fine article like me!
**[09:25] (Flashback) Shushi**
I'll be the second wife, though...
**[09:27] (Flashback) Shushi**
But his first wife has no children,
**[09:30] (Flashback) Shushi**
so if I have a baby, I could
legally become the queen.
**[09:33] (Flashback) Bunchu**
What about your job as general?
**[09:38] (Flashback) Bunchu**
Can you no longer take up the sword?
**[09:40] (Flashback) Shushi**
You're so silly.
**[09:42] (Flashback) Shushi**
I'll stand at the king's right-hand
side on the battlefield
**[09:45] (Flashback) Shushi**
and fight with you.
**[09:47] (Flashback) Shushi**
I'll never let all the training
I did with you go to waste.
**[09:58] Bunchu**
* That was when our paths*
* took us in different directions.*
**[10:06] Bunchu**
* To shake off the foggy feeling*
* that shrouded my mind,*
**[10:10] Bunchu**
*I was cruel to myself...*
**[10:16] Bunchu**
* Until my entire body began*
* to rot and grow necrotic.*
**[10:23] (Flashback) King**
To the Sennin world?
**[10:25] (Flashback) Bunchu**
Yes.
**[10:26] (Flashback) Bunchu**
I was not born with Sennin bones,
**[10:30] (Flashback) Bunchu**
but after all the training
I've put my body through,
**[10:33] (Flashback) Bunchu**
I seem to be developing them.
**[10:35] (Flashback) King**
I see!
**[10:36] (Flashback) King**
If you go there and come back a Doshi,
**[10:39] (Flashback) King**
it would greatly benefit Yin!
**[10:42] (Flashback) Shushi**
Bunchu.
**[10:42] (Flashback) Bunchu**
Yes?
**[10:44] (Flashback) Shushi**
Make sure you come back
**[10:45] (Flashback) Shushi**
and teach this little one
all kinds of things.
**[10:52] (Flashback) Bunchu**
Understood, my queen.
***SIGN*** Kingo Island
**[10:57] Bunchu**
*Then, after ten years...*
**[11:00] (Flashback) Yokai1**
Did you hear? The Kyu clan has
invaded the capital of Yin.
**[11:04] (Flashback) Yokai2**
I heard.
**[11:06] (Flashback) Yokai2**
The king fought back,
but it seems he died in battle.
**[11:10] Bunchu**
*In that era, Yin wasn't that strong yet.*
**[11:38] (Flashback) Bunchu**
My queen!
**[11:43] (Flashback) Shushi**
Bunchu... You came back.
**[11:47] (Flashback) Bunchu**
You mustn't speak, my queen!
**[11:50] (Flashback) Shushi**
I fought, but... I guess I've lost my edge...
**[11:56] (Flashback) Bunchu**
My queen!
**[11:57] (Flashback) Shushi**
I know you can make this boy...
**[12:02] (Flashback) Shushi**
this boy... the next... king of Yin...
**[12:07] (Flashback) Shushi**
King of Yin... this boy...
**[12:11] (Flashback) Shushi**
Take care of...
**[12:16] (Flashback) Bunchu**
Shushi...
**[12:33] (Flashback) Bunchu**
After the battle,
that boy became the new king.
**[12:37] (Flashback) Bunchu**
He was a good king.
**[12:39] (Flashback) Bunchu**
He made Yin even more powerful.
**[12:43] (Flashback) Bunchu**
Starting then, I was put in charge
of education for the royal family.
**[12:47] (Flashback) Bunchu**
His son, his son's son, and King Chu
**[12:52] (Flashback) Bunchu**
were all my students.
**[12:54] (Flashback) Bunchu**
Among them were both good
kings and bad kings,
**[12:57] (Flashback) Bunchu**
but regardless of how good or bad they were,
**[13:00] (Flashback) Bunchu**
they all feared and idolized me.
**[13:03] (Flashback) Shinkohyo**
And they all died before you.
**[13:12] (Flashback) Bunchu**
This was useless to talk about.
**[13:14] (Flashback) SHinkohyo**
Not at all.
**[13:18] (Flashback) Shinkohyo**
You are indeed the father of Yin,
**[13:21] (Flashback) Shinkohyo**
Bunchu.
**[13:32] Bunchu**
*I am going to get Yin back on its feet!*
**[13:36] Fugen**
Gravity control!
**[13:52] Bunchu**
Not bad, Fugen Shinjin.
**[13:56] Fugen**
You truly intend to annihilate
everything, don't you?
**[13:59] Fugen**
To destroy the power reactor
without hesitation...
**[14:03] Fugen**
But Bunchu, you won't be
able to release my soul.
**[14:07] Fugen**
I'm generating repulsion.
***SIGN*** Repulsion... The Reverse of Gravity
**[14:10] Fugen**
Your Kinben can no longer reach me.
**[14:13] Bunchu**
Are you sure?
**[14:19] Taikobo**
Fugen!
**[14:23] Taikobo**
Don't do anything rash, Fugen!
**[14:27] Taikobo**
O-Out of energy?!
**[14:41] Ohkijin**
Sister Dakki, this is a beauty
treatment known as aroma massage.
**[14:46] Dakki**
I love it! I love it!
**[14:49] Dakki**
I approve of this!
**[14:51] Kokibi**
Sister Dakki!
**[14:53] [SONG] Text**
Unrefined Sake
**[14:53] [SONG] Text**
Cleopatra and
Yang Guifei, too?!
***SIGN*** Top Quality Unrefined Sake
Bishojo
**[14:53] Kokibi**
I brought the legendary unrefined
sake that Cleopatra herself drank!
**[14:57] Dakki**
Oh, let's see.
**[15:00] Dakki**
Gulp, gulp.
**[15:01] Dakki**
I love it!
**[15:05] Dakki**
A heroine should always keep refining
her beauty with things like these!
**[15:06] Kokibi**
Heroine!
***SIGN*** Message
**[15:12] Dakki**
Oh, it's a message from him.
**[15:18] Ohtenkun2**
*It must be nice to be you, Dakki.*
**[15:22] Dakki**
Enjoying a spa treatment while the boys
are off fighting is the ultimate luxury!
**[15:27] Ohtenkun2**
*Well, that's fine for you.*
**[15:29] Ohtenkun2**
* Incidentally, Bunchu has*
* finally made his move here.*
**[15:33] Dakki**
Oh? So things are going well.
**[15:34] Ohtenkun2**
* But if this keeps up, this will end*
* with Bunchu as the only winner.*
**[15:38] Dakki**
Don't be silly.
**[15:39] Dakki**
Bunchu may come close to being the
strongest of all, but he's just a human.
**[15:45] Dakki**
And humans have a very fragile
weakness called a heart.
**[15:49] Ohtenkun2**
Heart?
**[15:50] Dakki**
So long as they don't go mad, like you did.
**[15:53] Dakki**
The trick is to hit the
weakest part of his heart.
**[15:57] Dakki**
You know what that is, don't you?
**[16:01] Ohtenkun2**
*I see... You really are amazing.*
**[16:04] Ohtenkun2**
*I'm no match for you.*
**[16:11] Hiko**
Huh?
**[16:12] Tenka**
What is it, Dad?
**[16:14] Hiko**
The three sisters...
**[16:15] Tenka**
Dunno. They got separated
from us at some point.
**[16:19] Tenka**
Anyway, where the heck is
Grand Preceptor Bunchu?
**[16:38] Fugen**
* Taikyoku Fuin's gravity*
* control isn't working.*
**[16:41] Fugen**
* Is Bunchu's Kinben really*
* just that powerful?*
**[16:46] Bunchu**
Fugen Shinjin, I ask you this:
**[16:49] Bunchu**
Why did you let Taikobo escape
and come to fight me alone?
**[16:54] Bunchu**
Did you think you could stop me on your own?
**[16:59] Fugen**
Perhaps.
**[17:00] Bunchu**
You're lying.
**[17:02] Bunchu**
You just wanted to keep Taikobo,
if no one else, alive.
**[17:05] Bunchu**
And you're trying to stall me to help
your allies who are on their way here.
**[17:11] Bunchu**
Even if it means giving your own life.
**[17:16] Bunchu**
I don't understand you people.
**[17:19] Bunchu**
Do you think you can defeat me
simply by outnumbering me?
**[17:25] Fugen**
*I have to buy time somehow.*
**[17:29] Fugen**
*Once they all get here...*
**[17:31] Bunchu**
Are you foolish enough to believe
that's actually possible?
**[17:35] Fugen**
Once they all get here...
**[17:38] Fugen**
Once they all get here, we can defeat you!
***SIGN*** Nuclear
***SIGN*** Fusion
**[17:48] Bunchu**
Oh? It's the paopei
Taikyoku Fuin's nuclear fusion.
**[18:35] Taikobo**
*Fugen...*
**[18:37] Taikobo**
*At that rate...*
**[18:43] Fugen**
That was definitely a direct hit.
**[18:46] Fugen**
Did I do a little damage, at least?
**[18:53] Fugen**
I-Impossible...
**[18:56] Fugen**
It didn't even put a single scratch on him!
**[18:59] Bunchu**
The difference in strength
between us is cruel.
**[19:02] Bunchu**
Out of pity, I will tell you one thing.
**[19:08] Bunchu**
I have no weaknesses.
**[19:10] Bunchu**
No matter how many of you
come at me, it's futile.
**[19:15] Fugen**
*I'm scared...*
**[19:21] Bunchu**
What's wrong, Fugen Shinjin?
**[19:31] Bunchu**
I see.
**[19:33] Bunchu**
Farewell, Fugen Shinjin.
**[19:45] Fugen**
Wind?
**[19:46] Bunchu**
A wall of wind?
**[19:58] Taikobo**
Fugen.
**[20:01] Taikobo**
You're such a fool.
**[20:02] Supushan**
We made it in time!
**[20:05] Fugen**
Bo!
**[20:08] Taikobo**
Hey, Bunchu!
**[20:09] Taikobo**
It's been a while!
**[20:12] Bunchu**
You didn't run with your
tail between your legs?
**[20:14] Taikobo**
As if!
**[20:16] Taikobo**
It won't turn out the
way you want this time!
**[20:19] Bunchu**
Fine. Come at me, Taikobo!
**[20:29] Kokutenko**
Looks like the battle between Taikobo
and Bunchu is finally beginning.
**[20:34] Kokutenko**
Bunchu's sure to win this, huh?
**[20:37] Shinkohyo**
Yes.
**[20:40] Shinkohyo**
Unless...
**[20:42] Kokutenko**
Unless?
**[20:43] Shinkohyo**
If the Signpost of History is
not pointed toward Bunchu,
**[20:49] Shinkohyo**
we have no way of knowing who will win.
**[22:29] Ohtenkun2**
*But what are you going to do now?*
**[22:33] Dakki**
I'm going to do my part.
**[22:37] Ohtenkun2**
*Understood.*
**[22:42] Dakki**
The age of myth is nearing its end.
**[22:45] Dakki**
History's archetype,
**[22:48] Dakki**
the most fundamental element of
the world's history, will end.
**[23:09] Chu**
The people, Bunchu, Dakki...
**[23:14] Chu**
They're all gone...
***SIGN*** Next Time
Bunchu
