SIGN    Heart and Reason
[01:47] Father
    He eats so much. It's great.
[01:51] (Flashback) Mother
    Grow up strong, Rokurota.
[01:55] (Flashback) Mother
    Oh, my. Is it playtime
    now that he's had a snack?
[02:18] Genji
    Stand back, Sagiri!
[02:33] Sagiri
    Genji-dono!
[02:38] Sagiri
    You need immediate medical attention.
[02:40] Genji
    Run, Sagiri.
[02:43] Genji
    It's too late for me.
[02:46] Genji
    Hurry... run...
[03:04] Sagiri
    Gabimaru...
[03:05] Gabimaru
    Is he a condemned criminal or a monster?
[03:10] Gabimaru
    He's practically unharmed.
[03:12] Sagiri
    That's Rokurota, the Giant of Bizen.
[03:17] Sagiri
    He's assigned to...
[03:20] Sagiri
    Eizen-dono.
[03:26] Gabimaru
    Those are the eyes
    of a predator who's located his prey.
[03:29] Gabimaru
    It'll be tough for us to escape together.
[03:33] Gabimaru
    Then I have no choice.
[03:35] Gabimaru
    I'll kill him.
[03:37] Gabimaru
    That said, how?
[03:39] Gabimaru
    If that kick was ineffective,
    then he's as tough as an Iwagakure.
[03:45] (Flashback) Chief
    Shinobi Rule Number Nine.
[03:48] Chief
    Accurately analyze the enemy's abilities.
[03:54] Gabimaru
    I'll decide once I see how strong he is.
[04:02] Gabimaru
    What?
[04:13] Gabimaru
    Stay back. You'll die.
[04:15] Sagiri
    But...
[04:17] Gabimaru
    Physically, he's stronger than me.
[04:19] Gabimaru
    How long are you going to
    sit there and watch, Yuzuriha?
[04:22] Gabimaru
    Help me.
[04:23] Gabimaru
    You've got your own ninjutsu, don't you?
[04:25] Gabimaru
    Fight with me, like you promised you would.
[04:27] Yuzuriha
    Okay, okay.
[04:29] Yuzuriha
    Of course I'll keep my promises.
[04:33] Yuzuriha
    You're responsible for the fighting,
[04:34] Yuzuriha
    and I'm responsible
    for gathering information.
[04:37] Yuzuriha
    You've got this, Gabimaru.
[04:39] Yuzuriha
    Don't let him beat you, Gabimaru.
[04:41] Yuzuriha
    Go, go. Get him.
[04:42] Yuzuriha
    You're so strong, Gabimaru.
[04:44] Yuzuriha
    Get out there.
[04:48] Gabimaru
    There's nothing special about his swings.
[04:50] Gabimaru
    If I just focus on the
    destruction wrought by his fists...
[05:02] Gabimaru
    His swings and reactions are fast.
[05:05] Gabimaru
    I can feel it instinctively.
[05:07] Gabimaru
    It's impossible to defend
    against those fists.
[05:09] Gabimaru
    Touching them would mean instant death.
[05:10] Gabimaru
    In that case...
[05:12] Gabimaru
    Ninpo: Stone Storm.
[05:24] Gabimaru
    Projectiles are ineffective.
[05:29] Gabimaru
    Ninpo: Unformed Blade.
[05:34] Gabimaru
    Not even my Unformed Blade, which is
    comparable to steel, works against him.
SIGN    Ninpo: Unformed Blade
SIGN    Ninpo:
    Savage
     Headbutt
[05:39] Gabimaru
    What else do I have?
SIGN    Ninpo:
    Aqueous
     Bomb
SIGN    Ninpo:
    Quilt of
     Thorns
SIGN    Ninpo:
    Savage
    Headbutt
SIGN    Ninpo:
    Zephyr
     Weave
[05:41] Gabimaru
    What long-range ninjutsu
    would be effective against him?
SIGN    Ninpo:
    Wild
    Archer
SIGN    Ninpo:
    Savage
     Headbutt
[05:46] Genji
    Enough.
[05:48] Genji
    This is pointless.
[05:50] Genji
    Run, Sagiri.
[05:54] Sagiri
    Don't give up.
[05:55] Sagiri
    You'll survive if we can stop the bleeding.
[05:59] Genji
    You're a strange person.
[06:02] Genji
    Moments ago, you were blustering like a man.
[06:07] Genji
    But now, I feel a woman's affection in you.
[06:11] Sagiri
    Right now, there are no men or women.
[06:13] Sagiri
    I simply don't want my senior, who
    studied under the same master to die.
[06:21] Genji
    So that's how you've chosen to live.
[06:25] Genji
    Rather than dividing everything in two,
    such as man or woman, strength or weakness,
[06:30] Genji
    you accept opposing
    concepts as part of yourself.
[06:34] Genji
    You embody the middle way.
[06:36] Genji
    That is your conviction.
[06:40] Genji
    I finally understand.
[06:46] Genji
    A warrior's sword is his soul.
[06:49] Genji
    I give this to you.
[06:52] Genji
    Rokurota probably killed Eizen-dono.
[07:00] Genji
    If you're a samurai, then I won't
     tell you to run anymore.
[07:06] Genji
    Kill Rokurota,
[07:11] Genji
    Yamada Asaemon Sagiri.
[07:20] Gabimaru
    Close-quarters combat is too dangerous.
    Projectiles are ineffective.
[07:25] Gabimaru
    If I could just get the chance
    to use Ascetic Blaze...
[07:31] Gabimaru
    If it were two against one,
    I could find a blind spot.
[07:39] Sagiri
    If you insert your blade at the junction
    of extended muscles, tendons, and bone,
[07:45] Sagiri
    even the strongest body can be cut.
[07:47] Sagiri
    No matter how outlandish your opponent,
    the principles of execution apply.
[07:52] Sagiri
    Understand the structure of their body
    and strike at the gaps.
[07:56] Sagiri
    That is the Yamada Asaemon style.
[08:01] Sagiri
    Gabimaru.
[08:03] Gabimaru
    Good timing. I was just looking for help.
[08:07] Both
    Assist me.
[08:09] Senta
    Um, I'd like to go tend
    my fellow student's wounds.
[08:13] Yuzuriha
    What? But it's too late for him.
[08:16] Yuzuriha
    Besides, you're not
    that kind of guy, are you?
[08:21] Yuzuriha
    More importantly, no monsters have
    approached despite the noise we're making.
[08:26] Yuzuriha
    Wouldn't it be more beneficial
    to observe them?
[08:29] Yuzuriha
    We can flee once they're dead.
[08:33] Sagiri
    His bleeding has stopped already.
[08:36] Gabimaru
    So that wasn't a serious injury for him.
[08:40] Gabimaru
    We need a single killing blow.
[08:42] Gabimaru
    We'll have to aim for the gaps
    between his bones and decapitate him.
[08:44] Sagiri
    But his neck is too high up.
[08:47] Gabimaru
    So we'll split up.
[08:49] Gabimaru
    Cut his legs from his blind spot
    and make him kneel.
[08:52] Sagiri
    You say that so casually.
[08:53] Gabimaru
    Huh?
[08:56] Gabimaru
    You can do it, can't you?
[09:01] Gabimaru
    I'll handle his attacks.
[09:14] Sagiri
    What?
[09:21] Gabimaru
    Are you all right?
[09:22] Sagiri
    Yes.
[09:24] Sagiri
    He's condemned to death
    and killed my senior.
[09:30] Sagiri
    But if I attack too aggressively,
    my swordsmanship will suffer.
[09:34] Sagiri
    I must remain calm.
[09:35] Sagiri
    I must push aside my emotions
    and rely on reason.
[09:42] Gabimaru
    He's coming. Again.
[09:47] Gabimaru
    My leg...
[09:49] Gabimaru
    I must've strained it
    while evading his blows.
[09:52] Gabimaru
    Dodging all his attacks takes
    a high degree of skill.
[09:55] Sagiri
    A simple open-palm strike
    from him hits like a cannon.
[09:57] Sagiri
    I must remain calm.
[09:59] Sagiri
    If I'm struck by a single blow, it's over.
[10:05] Sagiri
    Cutting through his bones
    while he's rampaging about will be difficult.
[10:08] Sagiri
    His movements close the gaps between his
    bones, leaving no space for my blade.
[10:12] Sagiri
    Normally, beheadings are performed
    on people bowing their heads.
[10:15] Sagiri
    Killing him with a single blow
    requires him to hunch over.
[10:19] Gabimaru
    But since our blades
    can't penetrate his limbs,
[10:22] Gabimaru
    it'll be difficult to make him do that.
[10:27] Gabimaru
    This is a tough problem.
[10:32] Gabimaru
    Is his stomach growling?
[10:40] Yuzuriha
    What is this?
[10:43] Gabimaru
    He's so loud.
[10:58] Sagiri
    Gabimaru!
[11:03] Gabimaru
    His extraordinary strength made me
    cautious, but I can withstand this.
[11:08] Gabimaru
    I can handle this.
[11:15] Sagiri
    No!
[11:18] Gabimaru
    Crap. I need to get back up.
[11:21] Gabimaru
    That wasn't a fatal blow.
[11:23] Gabimaru
    Stand up.
[11:31] Sagiri
    Death.
[11:33] Sagiri
    Calm down. I must remain calm.
[11:36] Sagiri
    Suppress your emotions. Think logically.
[11:40] Sagiri
    Calm down.
[11:41] Sagiri
    Abandon your passion and remain calm.
[11:45] (Flashback) Genji
    The middle way. That is your conviction.
[11:49] Sagiri
    Rather than dividing everything in two,
    accept the opposing concepts as they are.
[11:58] Sagiri
    Both emotion and reason.
[12:14] Sagiri
    Turn your emotions into strength.
[12:16] Sagiri
    Use logic to keep sight of the objective.
[12:19] Sagiri
    Choose neither calmness nor passion,
[12:22] Sagiri
    but the middle.
[12:30] Yuzuriha
    Wow.
[12:31] Senta
    Her Tameshi-itto-ryu rank is 12th,
[12:35] Senta
    but Yamada clan ranks
    aren't determined by pure skill alone.
[12:39] Senta
    They're assigned according
    to their suitability to lead the clan,
[12:43] Senta
    so she loses standing simply
    for being a woman.
[12:45] Senta
    In terms of pure skill, she's...
[12:49] Genji
    Sagiri lacks experience
    as a warrior on the battlefield.
[12:54] Genji
    But when her duty and goals
    are aligned with her heart,
[12:59] Genji
    when her hesitation vanishes,
[13:02] Genji
    her skill with a sword
    is better than first-rate.
[13:08] Genji
    She may fear the monsters of the island,
[13:11] Genji
    but as an Asaemon, in the face
    of a criminal, she shows no fear.
[13:18] Genji
    She's one stubborn person.
[13:21] Gabimaru
    I was right about her.
[13:24] Gabimaru
    That feeling I got when I first met her...
[13:26] Gabimaru
    She's strong.
[13:36] Sagiri
    A low-hanging head...
[13:51] Gabimaru
    I guess it's not that simple.
[13:54] Sagiri
    Is there any way to keep his head bowed?
[13:58] Gabimaru
    I've got an idea.
[13:59] Sagiri
    What?
[14:01] Gabimaru
    It might be a bit extreme.
[14:09] Gabimaru
    The Giant of Bizen.
[14:11] Gabimaru
    Close-quarters combat is too dangerous.
    Projectiles are ineffective.
[14:16] Gabimaru
    Our only option is to get a blade through
    a gap in his body and decapitate him.
[14:20] Gabimaru
    Doing that requires more than
    exceptional physical abilities.
[14:25] Gabimaru
    We need the skills of the Yamada
    Asaemon clan, specialized in beheading.
[14:31] Gabimaru
    But given his massive bulk
    and reaction speed,
[14:33] Gabimaru
    a half-hearted effort won't be enough
    to reach him with a blade.
[14:36] Gabimaru
    In that case...
[14:44] Yuzuriha
    Crap.
[14:45] Senta
    What?
[14:45] Yuzuriha
    We're getting out of here, Senta.
[14:47] Gabimaru
    Ninpo: Stone Storm, Ascetic Blaze Mode.
[14:54] Gabimaru
    Ninpo: Zephyr Weave, Ascetic Blaze Mode.
[14:58] Gabimaru
    Ninpo: Grand Crag, Ascetic Blaze Mode.
[15:02] Gabimaru
    Ninpo: Quilt of Thorns, Ascetic Blaze Mode.
[15:15] Sagiri
    Any more would be reckless.
[15:17] Sagiri
    Besides, this should be enough.
[15:25] Senta
    How far do we need to run?
[15:27] Yuzuriha
    As far as we can, you four-eyed raccoon dog.
[15:29] Yuzuriha
    They're not just trying to kill Rokurota.
[15:33] Yuzuriha
    They're planning to set
    the whole area on fire.
[15:36] Senta
    Could it be?
[15:38] Yuzuriha
    It's the smoke.
[15:39] Yuzuriha
    The massive amount of smoke
    produced by the oils in raw wood.
[15:41] Yuzuriha
    By setting fire to branches and leaves,
[15:45] Yuzuriha
    they can instantly fill the area above
    with smoke, given smoke's properties.
[15:48] Yuzuriha
    And if he rampages about while crying,
[15:50] Yuzuriha
    he'll run short of breath
    and inhale a large amount of smoke.
[15:54] Gabimaru
    Like execution by fire,
[15:56] Gabimaru
    the poison in the smoke
    that causes loss of consciousness
[15:58] Gabimaru
    when inhaled is more harmful
    than the flames or heat.
[16:01] Sagiri
    Poison?
[16:02] Narrator
    In other words, carbon monoxide.
[16:04] Narrator
    It binds to the hemoglobin in the blood,
[16:07] Narrator
    causing the entire body to rapidly reach
    an oxygen deficient state.
[16:11] Narrator
    It is known as carbon monoxide poisoning.
[16:14] Gabimaru
    That was tough for me too,
[16:16] Gabimaru
    but as long as you stay crouched,
    you won't inhale any smoke.
[16:18] Gabimaru
    It's safe.
[16:20] Sagiri
    I could burn to death.
[16:23] Sagiri
    Will he reach his limit first?
[16:25] Sagiri
    Or will his head come down first?
[16:49] Gabimaru
    Cut him now while we have the chance!
[16:51] Gabimaru
    I won't last long in a contest of strength!
[17:01] Sagiri
    Calmly.
[17:05] Sagiri
    Fiercely.
[17:22] Rokurota
    Hungry.
[17:22] Rokurota
    Wanna play.
[17:23] Rokurota
    Wanna play. Wanna play.
[17:25] Rokurota
    Hungry. Hungry.
[17:29] Rokurota
    Why don't I ever feel full?
[17:32] Rokurota
    Why won't anyone play with me?
[17:36] Sagiri
    We allowed you to go on quite a rampage.
[17:40] Sagiri
    We must've frightened you. I'm sorry.
[17:43] Sagiri
    It's my fault for lacking experience.
[17:47] Sagiri
    But it's all right now.
[17:50] Sagiri
    Nobody hates you.
[17:53] Sagiri
    Those who might hate you now are dead.
[17:57] Sagiri
    Like them, I hope you rest in peace.
[18:07] Gabimaru
    The flames are getting stronger.
[18:09] Gabimaru
    Monsters might approach.
[18:11] Gabimaru
    We should get away from here.
[18:21] Sagiri
    Genji-dono...
[18:23] Gabimaru
    If we don't hurry, we'll burn to death.
[18:36] Sagiri
    On this island where I can't mourn my
    fellow students, much less criminals,
[18:40] Sagiri
    I must be strong.
[18:47] Sagiri
    Strong...
[18:50] Genji
    Rather than dividing everything in two,
[18:52] Genji
    such as strength or weakness,
    you accept them.
[18:55] Genji
    That is your conviction.
[19:10] Gabimaru
    They're coming.
[19:12] Sagiri
    They're heading toward the flames.
[19:15] Sagiri
    But normally, animals instinctively avoid fire.
[19:20] Gabimaru
    They're looking less and less natural.
[19:25] Gabimaru
    We don't have a choice.
[19:27] Gabimaru
    Let's head in the direction
    where the monsters came from.
[19:29] Sagiri
    Wouldn't that be dangerous?
[19:31] Gabimaru
    Well, yeah, but we have no other choice.
[19:34] Gabimaru
    The monsters' ecology
    is our only lead on the Elixir.
[19:39] Gabimaru
    I'm still feeling the damage I took earlier.
[19:42] Gabimaru
    I need a break. This is such a pain.
[19:46] Sagiri
    Would you rather give up, then?
[19:47] Gabimaru
    No.
[19:49] Gabimaru
    No matter how small or dangerous,
    if it's a lead, I'll follow it.
[19:53] Gabimaru
    I'll find the Elixir of Life as quickly as
    possible and see my wife as soon as I can.
[19:58] Gabimaru
    Are you sure you're not worried about
    the safety of your fellow students?
[20:07] Sagiri
    No.
[20:09] Sagiri
    They all took this job
    knowing it could kill them.
[20:12] Sagiri
    It would be disrespectful
    to be too concerned about them.
[20:15] Sagiri
    If I'm worried about my fellows,
[20:17] Sagiri
    then I should find
    the Elixir as quickly as possible
[20:20] Sagiri
    and release us from this responsibility.
[20:24] Gabimaru
    Our interests are finally aligned.
[20:27] Sagiri
    I'm still your monitor.
[20:37] Sagiri
    What is that?
[20:38] Gabimaru
    The vixen and raccoon
    dog fled all the way here?
[20:47] Gabimaru
    Hey, what about our promise
    to fight together?
[20:53] Sagiri
    Is this a village?
[20:59] Yuzuriha
    Doesn't look like it could be anything else.
[21:02] Senta
    If this place really is Shinsenkyo,
[21:06] Senta
    does that mean hermits live in this village?
[21:24] Chobe
    Man, that's gross.
[21:25] Chobe
    Doesn't even fill you up.
[21:28] Toma
    Is that safe to eat?
[21:31] Chobe
    I'm not eating it, I'm drinking it.
[21:34] Chobe
    The bodily fluids of animals are the
    water you drink in the mountains.
[21:39] Chobe
    Anyway, what are those
    hermits you mentioned earlier?
[21:44] Toma
    Well... they're imaginary.
[21:48] Toma
    They're a type of superhuman being
    according to Shenxian philosophy.
[21:51] Toma
    Most resemble old men
    and cast mysterious spells.
[21:54] Toma
    Allegedly, they're immortal.
[21:56] Toma
    They may exist on this island.
[21:59] Toma
    It's supposed to be hermits,
    not monsters, that live in Shinsenkyo.
[22:04] Chobe
    Sounds dumb.
[22:06] Chobe
    Just kill the old farts and be done with it.
[22:09] Chobe
    They might actually satisfy my hunger.
[22:12] Toma
    You're joking, right?
[22:17] Toma
    Brother?
[22:18] Chobe
    Something's out there.
[22:23] Chobe
    These better be good.
