    Bunchu...
[00:21] Bunchu
    Your Majesty!
[00:24] Bunchu
    What are you doing at the
    Grand Preceptor's estate?
[00:27] Bunchu
    No, more importantly, why are you so pale?
[00:30] Chu
    My body... won't move as I want it to...
[00:57] Bunchu
    Your Majesty... What has Dakki done to you?
[01:01] Chu
    Don't go anywhere, Bunchu.
[01:04] Chu
    Don't go... Don't go!
[01:07] Chu
    I'm frightened.
[01:09] Chu
    I might fall apart.
[01:21] Bunchu
    That fox...

[03:10] Shuko
    He was a captive of Dakki's for far too long.
[03:18] Shuko
    My father has eaten less than
    a bird would ever since.
[03:24] Taikobo
    Shuko Tan...
[03:26] Taikobo
    I met with a young Ki Sho
    before you were even born.
[03:33] Taikobo
    I suppose it was about
    twenty years ago now...
[03:37] (Flashback) Hakutsuru
    Slipping out of the Sennin
    world without permission...
[03:39] (Flashback) Hakutsuru
    I'll get in trouble along with you!
[03:41] (Flashback) Taikobo
    What are you talking about?
[03:43] (Flashback) Taikobo
    You said you'd come with me for three Sento!
[03:47] (Flashback) Hakutsuru
    I know, but...
[03:49] (Flashback) Hakutsuru
    I'm exhausted from flying
    all over the country.
[03:54] (Flashback) Taikobo
    That's...
[03:56] (Flashback) Taikobo
    The Kyo!
[03:59] (Flashback) Guy
    Lord Ki Sho, they appear to be
    Kyo people who fled from Choka.
[04:07] (Flashback) Ki Sho
    Allow them into Hoyu.
[04:10] (Flashback) Guy
    B-But we'll need a massive amount
    of food if we take them!
[04:14] (Flashback) Ki Sho
    That doesn't mean we can just abandon them.
[04:17] (Flashback) Ki Sho
    The Kyo face discrimination in Choka,
[04:19] (Flashback) Ki Sho
    but there is no such thing in Seiki.
[04:22] (Flashback) Ki Sho
    If there's not enough food,
    use what's in the castle.
[04:27] (Flashback) Ki Sho
    Hakuyuko, we'll have much
    less food from tomorrow on,
[04:32] (Flashback) Ki Sho
    but stay strong.
[04:39] Taikobo
    I saw all of the Yin Dynasty,
[04:41] Taikobo
    but no man compared to Ki Sho.
[04:49] Shuko
    My father was just as you say.
[04:52] Shuko
    Because of him, I rarely had
    a good meal as a child. I hated it.
[04:58] Shuko
    Taikobo...
[05:00] Shuko
    I would like you to meet
    his second son, Ki Hatsu.
[05:03] Taikobo
    Ki Hatsu?
[05:05] Shuko
    Should the worst happen,
[05:06] Shuko
    my brother, Ki Hatsu,
    is to succeed my father.
[05:11] Shuko
    I would like you to judge whether
    or not he is worthy of the honor.

SIGN    Big Brother
[05:21] Taikobo
    Does this drawing really
    look anything like him?
[05:24] Taikobo
    I'm supposed to find him based on this?
[05:31] Ki Hatsu
    Oh, miss! Please wait for me!
[05:34] Girl
    Do you never give up?!
    You're not even my type!
[05:38] Ki Hatsu
    If that's how you feel, then I'll change!
[05:44] Girl
    Take that! And that! And that! And that!
[05:47] Girl
    Hmph!
[05:50] Ki Hatsu
    I'm in heaven.
[05:52] Taikobo
    Hey, you there...
SIGN    Big Brother
[05:54] Taikobo
    Do you know this man?
[05:57] Ki Hatsu
    Hey, are you a friend of Ki Hatsu's?
[06:00] Ki Hatsu
    I just saw him in that tea house.
[06:02] Ki Hatsu
    Later.
SIGN    Tea House
[06:03] Taikobo
    Ah, that must be it!
[06:06] Bukichi
    Master!
[06:10] Taikobo
    Bukichi and Supu?
[06:12] Bukichi
    You're looking for
    Lord Ki Hatsu, right? We'll help!
[06:15] Bukichi
    I know his face—
[06:16] Bukichi
    Er, huh? That man is...
[06:20] Ki Hatsu
    Rats. I guess I've been found out.
[06:23] Taikobo
    D-Don't tell me...
[06:25] Taikobo
    That's him?
[06:52] Ki Sho
    Taikobo...
[06:56] Ki Sho
    Will you remain in Seiki, even if I die?
[07:07] Taikobo
    Yes.
[07:10] Ki Sho
    I see...
[07:13] Ki Sho
    Hatsu.
[07:15] Ki Hatsu
    I'm here, Dad.
[07:18] Ki Sho
    I have fulfilled my duty.
[07:23] Ki Sho
    I leave it to you, Hatsu,
    to build the new country...
[07:30] Ki Hatsu
    All right.
[07:32] Ki Hatsu
    You can count on me, Dad.
[07:34] Ki Sho
    Think of Taikobo as my replacement.
[07:39] Ki Sho
    Taikobo will surely lead
    Seiki down the right path.
[07:50] Ki Sho
    How awful...
[07:52] Ki Sho
    There's truly nothing left for me to do...
[07:59] Hakuyuko
    Father.
[08:03] Ki Sho
    Hakuyuko...
[08:05] Hakuyuko
    As a man who died with regrets, I envy you.
[08:10] Ki Sho
    True... I...
[08:16] Ki Sho
    am truly blessed.
[08:29] Hiko
    No clouds, no wind...
[08:32] Hiko
    It's nice, quiet weather.
[08:35] Hiko
    It almost hurts my ears.
[08:45] Taikobo
    Ki Hatsu.
[08:49] Ki Hatsu
    I'm not interested in talking right now.
[08:51] Taikobo
    That won't do. You're about to be very busy.
[09:02] Ki Hatsu
    You're saying I can't even
    have time to mourn?!
[09:08] Shuko
    Brother.
[09:09] Ki Hatsu
    Tan...
[09:11] Shuko
    You will now become the king
[09:14] Shuko
    and rule over Seiki.
[09:17] Shuko
    That is the best way to combat Yin.
[09:20] Ki Hatsu
    Tan, damn you!
[09:23] Shuko
    Perhaps we should name
    the new country "Shu,"
[09:25] Shuko
    after the Shu people who reside in it.
[09:29] Shuko
    I must go.
[09:31] Ki Hatsu
    There's something wrong with you people!
[09:33] Ki Hatsu
    I'm supposed to just move on
    right after my dad dies?!
[09:37] Taikobo
    Say no more, Ki Hatsu.
[09:39] Taikobo
    Everyone grieves in their own way.
[09:43] Taikobo
    Don't think you're the only one in mourning.
[09:49] Ki Hatsu
    The wind...
[09:52] (Flashback) Ki Sho
    I leave it to you, Hatsu,
    to build the new country...
[10:02] Taikobo
    Ki Hatsu.
[10:06] Taikobo
    Let us go...
[10:08] Taikobo
    and defeat Yin!
SIGN    Seiki Castle
[10:24] Taikobo
    Listen to me, Buoh.
[10:26] Taikobo
    Ten thousand citizens are
    gathered beyond this door.
[10:31] Taikobo
    Try not to do anything careless.
SIGN    Hatchie
SIGN    Hatchie
[10:51] Ki Hatsu
    Yeah, so... I guess...
[10:56] Ki Hatsu
    Uh... There's nothing good about war at all.
[11:00] Taikobo
    That fool! That's not in
    the script I gave him!
[11:04] Ki Hatsu
    But I'm going to fight Yin anyway.
[11:08] Ki Hatsu
    I've had enough of letting
    them have their way with us.
[11:12] Ki Hatsu
    For now, think of me as
    your leader and follow me.
[11:16] Ki Hatsu
    I'm not as resourceful
    as my dad or Hakuyuko,
[11:21] Ki Hatsu
    but look at all the allies I have!
SIGN    New
SIGN    Hatchie
[11:28] Shuko
    I'm certain that my brother will
    take revenge for our father.
[11:34] Taikobo
    Yes.
[11:36] Shuko
    And one other thing...
[11:38] Shuko
    The Sennin of Kingo are, frankly, a nuisance.
[11:42] Shuko
    This is all taking an extensive
    toll on the Shu people.
[11:45] Shuko
    And if we're going to be killed anyway,
    we're prepared to die
[11:49] Shuko
    to defeat our enemies, Dakki and Bunchu,
[11:52] Shuko
    as well as the man backing them,
    Tsuten Kyoshu.
[11:56] Taikobo
    Yes... I knew that we would
    need the help of the humans.
[12:02] Taikobo
    And it was my plan to recruit you all.
[12:04] Taikobo
    But I can only allow humans to help us
     in fighting against other humans.
[12:10] Taikobo
    I want to keep the casualties to a minimum.
[12:14] Taikobo
    It may be my pride talking,
[12:17] Taikobo
    but I still don't want that to happen.
[12:22] Taikobo
    Don't worry. The Sennin world
    intends to make its move as well.
SIGN    Lady Dakki
SIGN    Lady Dakki
[12:42] All
    Lady Dakki!
[12:44] Dakki
    Listen, everyone! I'm speaking
    in place of the poor, sick King Chu!
[12:49] Dakki
    The Shu are about to attack Choka!
[12:55] Dakki
    Oh no! I don't know what I'll do! Help!
SIGN    Dakki
SIGN    Lady Dakki
[13:03] Bunchu
    Fox!
[13:04] Bunchu
    What did you do to the king?
[13:07] Bunchu
    And what's more...
[13:09] Bunchu
    How dare you incite the people as well?
[13:11] Dakki
    Aw, what's the problem with making
    the humans fight each other?
[13:17] Dakki
    We're just controlling them from the shadows.
[13:20] Dakki
    It's exactly the same thing Taikobo's doing.
[13:24] Bunchu
    The same thing?
[13:25] Bunchu
    At least Taikobo is acting out
    of concern for the humans.
[13:30] Bunchu
    You're just playing a self-serving game!
[13:36] Dakki
    Is that right?
SIGN    HAKYU HOSHIN ENGI
[13:44] Genshi
    There's no way the Juttenkun will allow this!
[13:47] Genshi
    Can you not strike first
    by marching on Kingo Island?
[13:51] Taikobo
    No.
[13:52] Taikobo
    I'm thinking about a compromise
    with Tsuten Kyoshu.
[13:58] Both
    What?!
[14:00] Taikobo
    The main goal of the Hoshin Plan
[14:03] Taikobo
    is to defeat Dakki and
    create a new human world.
[14:07] Taikobo
    Not to take out Kingo Island.
[14:10] Taikobo
    On that note, I'm planning to
    make a trip to Kingo Island.
SIGN    Kingo Island
[14:19] Bunchu
    I haven't been inside
    Kingo Island in a long time.
[14:34] Bunchu
    Ohtenkun. Assist me
    alongside the Juttenkun.
[14:39] Ohtenkun
    Huh? That's pretty damn impudent.
[14:43] Ohtenkun
    We of the Juttenkun are far
    higher Sennin than you are.
[15:05] Bunchu
    The war against Seiki... no,
    against the Shu will soon begin.
[15:09] Bunchu
    You Juttenkun and I will bring
    down Konron Mountain first
[15:13] Bunchu
    and coerce the Shu to surrender.
[15:15] Ohtenkun
    That's a pretty roundabout plan.
[15:17] Bunchu
    It will minimize human casualties.
[15:23] Ohtenkun
    Fine.
[15:24] Ohtenkun
    It bugs us that the Konron Mountain
    gang has been skulking around, too.
[15:31] Bunchu
    I'm going to meet Lord Tsuten Kyoshu.
[15:33] BUnchu
    Come with me.
[15:36] Bunchu
    Ohtenkun.
[15:38] Ohtenkun
    Huh?
[15:41] Bunchu
    Keep your shallow wit to yourself.
[15:46] Ohtenkun
    What are you talking about?
SIGN    Tsu
[15:57] Bunchu
    Lord Tsuten Kyoshu, it's Bunchu.
[16:00] Bunchu
    I'm coming in.
[16:11] Bunchu
    Lord Tsuten Kyoshu...
[16:15] Bunchu
    I'm going to lead the Juttenkun
[16:18] Bunchu
    in bringing down Konron Mountain.
[16:20] Bunchu
    To that end, I have a proposal...
[16:22] Tsuten
    Bunchu.
[16:24] Bunchu
    Yes?
[16:25] Tsuten
    I grant you full authority.
[16:27] Tsuten
    Make sure you bring Konron Mountain down.
[16:33] Bunchu
    Lord Tsuten Kyoshu...
[16:35] Ohtenkun
    It's no use, Bunchu.
[16:37] Ohtenkun
    That's all he'll ever say.
[16:39] Bunchu
    What are you saying, Ohtenkun?
[16:42] Ohtenkun
    It's been about twenty years since
    you descended to the human world.
[16:45] Ohtenkun
    As time has worn on,
     this is just how he's become.
[16:49] Ohtenkun
    He's basically a husk.
[16:51] Ohtenkun
    He gives orders occasionally,
    as if he just remembered them.
[16:57] Bunchu
    Someone stole his soul?
[16:59] Bunchu
    But who would be capable of that?
[17:07] Bunchu
    Is this Dakki's doing, Ohtenkun?!
[17:10] Ohtenkun
    Huh? Like I know.
[17:13] Ohtenkun
    Why ask me?
[17:18] Bunchu
    It appears I'll have to meet with Dakki.
[17:21] Bunchu
    I'm going back at once.
    You prepare to attack Konron.
[17:26] Ohtenkun
    Attack Konron?
[17:28] Ohtenkun
    You want us to just fly in and attack?
[17:31] Bunchu
    No. I have the perfect strategy.
[17:35] Ohtenkun
    Strategy?
[17:40] Chu
    Bunchu!
[17:43] Bunchu
    Your Majesty, are you well now?
[17:47] Chu
    I've always been well.
[17:51] Chu
    What's the matter, Bunchu?
    It bothers you that I'm well?
[17:57] Bunchu
    Your Majesty, where is Dakki?
[17:59] Chu
    Dakki?
[18:02] Chu
    Who is that?
[18:07] Shinkohyo
    Now this is interesting.
[18:08] Kokutenko
    What now? Want to take a
    look at Taikobo's crew?
[18:11] Shinkohyo
    That's enough of your
    clairvoyance, Kokutenko.
[18:15] Shinkohyo
    Something just as interesting
    is right in front of us.
[18:24] Dakki
    I can do just about anything, you know!
[18:28] Shinkohyo
    Is there something you need?
[18:30] Dakki
    Taikobo is collecting allies
    and making his way here.
[18:34] Dakki
    Listen, Shinkohyo. I want you to
    lend your services to Yin next.
[18:40] Dakki
    If this goes on, Yin is going to fall.
[18:43] Shinkohyo
    You want to save Yin?
[18:44] Shinkohyo
    That's not true, is it, Dakki?
[18:47] Shinkohyo
    Your goal is to destroy Yin.
[18:50] Shinkohyo
    You hide many secrets within you.
[18:54] Shinkohyo
    You left Kingo Island
    and became a vagrant Sennin.
[18:59] Shinkohyo
    Bunchu left the Sennin world
    in order to live alongside humans,
[19:03] Shinkohyo
    yet he still maintains
    his connection to the Sennin world.
[19:07] Shinkohyo
    But not you.
[19:09] Shinkohyo
    You've completely cut ties with it.
[19:12] Shinkohyo
    Not only that, but you brought half
    of the Yokai Sennin under your rule
[19:17] Shinkohyo
    and took up residence in the palace.
[19:19] Shinkohyo
    Yet Tsuten Kyoshu remains silent for some
    reason, even after you took his followers.
[19:26] Dakki
    Tsuten Kyoshu?
[19:28] Dakki
    Oh, yes. I remember him.
SIGN    Kingo Island
[19:33] Yotenkun
    That Bunchu certainly came
    up with a bold plan.
[19:38] Chotenkun
    He is not to be taken lightly.
[19:40] Sontenkun
    Are you going to go along
    with his plan, Ohtenkun?
[19:44] Ohtenkun
    Yeah, sure.
[19:51] Ohtenkun
    Listen up, you guys.
[19:53] Ohtenkun
    We're going to let Bunchu
    do as he likes for now.
[19:59] Shinkohyo
    Take a look, Kokutenko.
[20:01] Shinkohyo
    This country's history will soon change
    course at the hands of Sennin and Doshi.
[20:06] Kokutenko
    Is that what you want?
[20:07] Kokutenko
    Wouldn't all this be settled
    if you defeated Dakki?
[20:11] Shinkohyo
    I can't do that.
[20:12] Kokutenko
    Why not?
[20:14] Shinkohyo
    Just because.
SIGN    Kingo Island
[20:16] Shinkohyo
    But things are taking shape now.
[20:19] Shinkohyo
    Kingo and Konron will leech off
    of Yin and the Shu, respectively,
SIGN    Konron Mountain
[20:23] Shinkohyo
    and face each other in war.
[20:33] Supushan
    Master...
[20:36] Supushan
    Are you really going to
    Kingo Island by yourself?
[20:39] Taikobo
    Yes.
[20:40] Taikobo
    I'm only going to propose a ceasefire.
[20:43] Supushan
    B-But I'm worried.
[20:46] Supushan
    They might refuse to listen,
    then capture and torture us!
[20:51] Supushan
    They might even skin us alive!
[20:54] Taikobo
    You're overthinking this.
SIGN    Kingo Island
[22:53] Taikobo
    Wh-What is that?!
[22:58] Fugen
    Kingo Island is...
[23:02] Fugen
    moving.
[23:08] Ohma
    The battle between Kingo
    and Konron is about to begin.
[23:18] Shinkohyo
    There's no going back now.
