**[00:16] Chu**
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*** Hoyu
***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.
