[00:07] Kajika
    See? Fun, huh?
[00:10] Mumei
    Now try that one thing. The smacky-smack one.
[00:13] Ikoma
    I don't know if I remember.
[00:22] Kibito
    When did he learn Kurusu's techniques?
[00:24] Mumei
    Kabaneri are good at imitating people.
[00:28] Takumi
    How does it feel to meet
    your equal at swordplay?
[00:40] Ikoma
    What was that for?
[00:42] Kurusu
    Don't get cocky just because
    you copied one move.
[00:45] Mumei
    Man, you're like a little kid.
[00:46] Mumei
    You're so petty.
[00:48] Kurusu
    What?
[00:49] Takumi
    Ikoma, copy that technique, too.
[00:52] Takumi
    And hit him with it!
[00:54] Ikoma
    Okay.
[00:55] Kurusu
    What?
[00:56] Hatori
    Station sighted!
[01:02] Ikoma
    That's Shitori Station.
[01:04] Takumi
    What are we in for this time?
[01:12] ManA
    There are people there!
[01:13] ManB
    This time, it's a living station!
[01:15] ManC
    Hey!
[01:17] Ikoma
    Now we can finally relax for a bit.
[01:19] Mumei
    Yeah.
[01:26] Opening
    Are you human or kabane?
[01:28] Opening
    Neither!
[01:30] Opening
    I'm a kabaneri!

SIGN    Begging
     the Heavens
[03:01] Ayame
    We will meet with the lord of this station.
[03:04] Ayame
    Take care of the Kotetsujyo.
[03:07] Akouji
    Leave it to us.
[03:09] Akouji
    That's our job.
[03:11] SUzuki
    Ayame-sama, we have no more daita iron.
[03:14] Ayame
    Daita iron?
[03:16] Ikoma
    The material for the jet bullets.
[03:18] Ikoma
    It's easy to vaporize,
[03:20] Ikoma
    which helps them penetrate better.
[03:23] Ayame
    Can I ask you to buy some, then?
[03:26] Ikoma
    Okay!
[03:27] Sukari
    We need materials to repair
    the Kotetsujyo, too.
[03:29] Yukina
    True.
[03:31] Kajika
    I want some clothes and medicine, too.
[03:33] Kurusu
    We've been told to leave
    on the evening of the eighth.
[03:37] Takumi
    The eighth? That's tomorrow.
[03:40] Takumi
    So today's Tanabata?
[03:42] Sukari
    We don't have time to put up
    paper strips for decoration.
[03:45] Mumei
    What are you talking about?
[03:47] Ikoma
    You don't know what Tanabata is?
[03:49] Kajika
    You write a wish on a strip of
    paper and hang it from bamboo.
[03:52] Mumei
    I want to try that.
[03:54] Ikoma
    But I don't know if we'll be
    able to spare the expense.
[03:56] Ikoma
    I don't even know if we'll have
    money to buy what we need.
[03:59] Ayame
    Let's do Tanabata.
[04:03] Ayame
    If you need money, take this.
[04:06] Kurusu
    Ayame-sama, that's...
[04:09] Ayame
    Can I ask you to handle it?
[04:10] Ikoma
    Of course.
[04:15] All
    One, two...
[04:18] WomanA
    Did you hear? It's Tanabata, they say!
[04:20] WomanB
    I totally forgot.
[04:22] ManD
    The people who are out shopping
    say they'll bring back bamboo.
[04:25] ManE
    We have to make our paper strips then, huh?
[04:31] ManF
    The wind rustles the bamboo leaves...
[04:35] ManG
    It's too soon for that.
[04:36] Kajika
    Come on, stay put.
[04:39] Kajika
    Jeez!
[04:54] Kajika
    Wow, it's so pretty!
[04:56] Koi
    The color is beautiful!
[04:58] Tai
    I can't wait to buy clothes.
[05:03] Mumei
    It's nice to finally get
    a change of clothes, huh?
[05:06] Ikoma
    Yeah.
[05:07] Mumei
    You're always half-naked, anyway.
[05:11] Ikoma
    Not because I want to be!
[05:14] Yukina
    Let's split up here.
[05:17] Yukina
    We'll be going to the repair factory.
[05:19] Ikoma
    Okay.
[05:21] Ikoma
    Ready to go?
[05:22] Takumi
    Sure thing.
[05:28] Kajika
    Mumei-chan, come with me.
[05:30] Mumei
    I don't know how to shop, though.
[05:33] Kajika
    They try to rip you off when
    they see a woman alone.
[05:35] Kajika
    Please, yojinbo!
[05:38] Mumei
    Okay!
[05:47] kajika
    Too expensive!
[05:48] kajika
    Way too expensive!
[05:49] Kotaro
    Way too expensive!
[05:50] Kajika
    Look, it's spoiled here!
[05:52] Kajika
    Give us a discount!
[05:53] Kotaro
    Give us a discount!
[05:54] Kajika
    You don't have anything thicker?
[05:56] Kajika
    Fabric this thin won't last three days!
[05:59] Kajika
    I'll take all these, so give me half-off!
[06:01] Saba
    Ten mon for these tiny little beans?
[06:03] Saba
    Don't be stupid!
[06:04] Mumei
    Kajika goes to war, too.
[06:15] Ikoma
    What's that?
[06:17] Owner
    Oh, fireworks.
[06:19] Owner
    In Shitori, we shoot fireworks for New Year's.
[06:22] Ikoma
    If you're shooting fireworks, you
    must have burst charges, right?
[06:25] Ikoma
    Can we have some?
[06:28] Owner
    Sure.
[06:28] Owner
    But what will you use it for?
[06:30] Ikoma
    I thought I could use them as a
    combustion agent for the jet bullets.
[06:33] Owner
    Jet bullets?
[06:35] Ikoma
    Well, you see...
[06:36] Bushi
    Hey.
[06:39] Bushi
    My gun's acting strange.
[06:40] Bushi
    It's an emergency.
[06:42] Owner
    One moment.
[06:44] Owner
    As soon as I'm done with them.
[06:48] Ikoma
    We were here first.
[06:49] Bushi
    You're just a steam blacksmith.
[06:51] Bushi
    You're going to disobey a bushi?
[06:52] Ikoma
    He's talking to me!
[06:55] Bushi
    Outsider!
[07:00] Ikoma
    How could you do that?
[07:01] Owner
    Jeez...
[07:02] Bushi
    Forget the screws.
[07:04] Bushi
    Help me first.
[07:05] Takumi
    Pick them up.
[07:08] Takumi
    Didn't your mom ever teach you to pick
    up your toys after you make a mess?
[07:15] Bushi
    Curse you!
[07:23] Ikoma
    Not even close to proper form!
[07:28] Bushi
    I'll come to get it this evening!
[07:30] Bushi
    Have it fixed by then!
[07:33] Takumi
    Bushi are nothing compared to the kabane.
[07:36] Ikoma
    Oh, right.
[07:38] Ikoma
    So jet bullets...
[07:41] Takumi
    Can you hear him out?
[07:43] Takumi
    Thanks.
[07:50] Boy
    Miss, you with the Kotetsujyo?
[07:54] Boy
    My dad rides on a hayajiro, too.
[07:58] Yukina
    I see.
[07:59] Yukina
    So we're comrades.
[08:00] Boy
    Yeah.
[08:01] Boy
    It's called the Husoujyo!
[08:09] Yukina
    I'm sorry.
[08:10] Yukina
    I don't know a lot about other hayajiro.
[08:12] Sukari
    The Husoujyo got swallowed by the kabane.
[08:15] Yukina
    Sukari!
[08:17] Sukari
    Everybody on it turned into kabane,
    and they rammed into Aragane Station.
[08:22] Sukari
    We fled from there.
[08:24] Yukina
    Why would you...
[08:27] Sukari
    It's much more cruel to make him
    wait for a dad who's never coming home.
[08:32] Sukari
    At least, I wish somebody had told me.
[08:35] Boy
    You're lying!
[08:37] Boy
    That's a lie!
[08:39] Boy
    Dad...
[08:41] Boy
    But he said he'd come back, no matter what!
[08:48] Sukari
    Sorry.
[08:50] Sukari
    I didn't mean to make you cry.
[08:53] Sukari
    But it's once the tears dry
    that the real fight begins.
[09:04] Kurusu
    She's late.
[09:06] Kibito
    We're uninvited guests.
[09:09] Kibito
    No place has enough food.
[09:11] Kurusu
    But they won't give us even
    a chance to negotiate?
[09:15] Kurusu
    They're fighting the wrong enemy.
[09:18] Kibito
    You're sounding like Ikoma.
[09:23] Kurusu
    I'll go talk to her.
[09:26] Kurusu
    Ayame-sama...
[09:29] Ayame
    Kurusu, this is, um...
[09:34] Kurusu
    Excuse me.
[09:37] Kurusu
    We'll wait a little more, perhaps.
[09:40] Kibito
    Are you sure?
[09:41] Kibito
    Don't we have to hur—
[09:42] Kurusu
    Just a little more.
[09:50] Yamazaki
    What is this?
[09:52] Ayame
    A pleasure to meet you.
[09:54] Ayame
    I am Ayame of the Yomogawa clan.
[09:57] Yamazaki
    I am Yamazaki, the daimyo's minister.
[09:59] Yamazaki
    But more importantly...
[10:01] Ayame
    A gift for Shitori-sama.
[10:03] Ayame
    A young steam blacksmith of ours made
    this. It fires what he calls "jet bullets."
[10:07] Ayame
    We couldn't allow any problems,
    so we were testing them.
[10:11] Ayame
    Kurusu?
[10:12] Kurusu
    Of course.
[10:13] Kibito
    Ready.
[10:23] MinisterA
    What power!
[10:25] Yamazaki
    It could penetrate the
    heart cage of a kabane!
[10:28] Ayame
    We're willing to give you
    the plans, if you like.
[10:31] Yamazaki
    Oh my...
[10:33] Ayame
    We need to help each other out
    when we're in trouble, don't we?
[10:36] Yamazaki
    Of course.
[10:38] Yamazaki
    I promise to supply you with provisions.
[10:41] Ayame
    Can we ask you to take our wounded and sick?
[10:45] Yamazaki
    Of course!
[10:47] MinisterB
    Sir!
[10:49] Hirotsuuka
    The heir to the Yomogawa clan awaits me.
[10:52] Hirotsuuka
    Make this quick.
[10:54] Kogenta
    I am Kogenta, of the
    Shogun's Council of Five.
[10:58] Kogenta
    This is the Liberator's former Ear.
[11:04] Enoku
    I am Enoku.
[11:07] Hirotsuka
    What is a Karikatashu doing here?
[11:09] Kogenta
    He works for us now.
[11:11] Kogenta
    The Liberator will arrive
    at Shitori Station soon.
[11:16] Hirotsuka
    Please, no!
[11:17] Hirotsuka
    Shitori has nothing to do
    with the wars at the capital!
[11:22] Kogenta
    If nothing else, you do.
[11:27] Kogenta
    Ever since that day ten years ago...
[11:33] Mumei
    We're back!
[11:34] Kajika
    Look! We bought all this!
[11:36] Takumi
    Wow!
[11:38] Takumi
    I don't know if we'll have room!
[11:39] Kajika
    Thanks.
[11:40] Kajika
    That's enough.
[11:43] Kajika
    He sleeps so well when you
    carry him, Mumei-chan.
[11:48] Mumei
    Oh, right. There's also this.
[11:51] Ikoma
    What?
[11:53] Mumei
    Kajika bought it for me.
[11:56] Kajika
    Let's go back!
[11:58] Kajika
    We have lots of great bamboo.
[12:01] Mumei
    That's for Tanabata?
[12:02] Kajika
    That's right.
[12:04] Kajika
    You write your wish on the paper,
[12:07] Kajika
    and hang it like this.
[12:17] Takumi
    Okay, let's go!
[12:19] Takumi
    Gotta get back and put up the decorations!
[12:21] Sukari
    Want to get some dinner
    in town while we're here?
[12:23] Takumi
    Sounds great!
[12:29] Kajika
    What's wrong?
[12:31] Ikoma
    Where's Mumei?
[12:35] Kajika
    She was just here.
[12:37] Ikoma
    She didn't bring lunch!
[12:40] Ikoma
    Sheesh!
[12:41] Kajika
    Lunch?
[12:43] Yukina
    This.
[12:44] Kajika
    Oh...
[12:57] Ikoma
    There you are!
[12:58] Ikoma
    I've been looking for you.
[13:00] Mumei
    What's wrong?
[13:03] Ikoma
    You forgot your lunch, right?
[13:10] Mumei
    Thanks.
[13:12] Ikoma
    Say, "Let's eat," before you drink it.
[13:14] Mumei
    Let's eat.
[13:16] Ikoma
    Let's eat.
[13:27] Mumei
    I've done Tanabata before.
[13:31] Mumei
    I forgot about it.
[13:34] Mumei
    But I remembered when I
    saw the bamboo leaves.
[13:37] Ikoma
    Yeah?
[13:39] Mumei
    Mom put up the decorations and said
[13:43] Mumei
    "Hodsumi, isn't the weather nice today?
    You can see the milky way."
[13:49] Ikoma
    Hodsumi?
[13:50] Mumei
    My name.
[13:52] Mumei
    From before I met brother.
[13:54] Mumei
    I wonder how it was written.
[13:58] Ikoma
    Probably like this.
SIGN    Piles of Rice
[14:05] Ikoma
    She probably gave it to you hoping
    you'd be able to eat your fill of rice.
[14:14] Ikoma
    Why are you laughing?
[14:15] Mumei
    Because you took it so seriously.
[14:17] Ikoma
    I mean, I'm sure of it!
[14:22] Mumei
    But my mom was so dumb.
[14:24] Mumei
    We lost the ability to
    grow rice a long time ago.
[14:28] Mumei
    And our food now is...
[14:33] Mumei
    I'm talking to you right now,
[14:35] Mumei
    but tomorrow I might be a kabane.
[14:39] Mumei
    Or it might be today.
[14:41] Mumei
    When I go to sleep, I always think...
[14:45] Mumei
    When I wake up tomorrow,
    will I be the same person?
[14:52] Mumei
    That maybe my mind will disappear.
[14:59] Mumei
    And when that happens,
    then tomorrow I'll bite everyone!
[15:07] Mumei
    That would be one hell of a wake-up, huh?
[15:12] Ikoma
    Stop it.
[15:15] Ikoma
    Go back to being human.
[15:18] Ikoma
    Stop fighting the kabane.
[15:21] Ikoma
    You don't need to fight the kabane
    if it means you're going through that.
[15:25] Ikoma
    I've decided.
[15:27] Ikoma
    I'm turning you back into a human.
[15:29] Ikoma
    And then you can eat a lot of rice,
    like your mom wanted.
[15:34] Mumei
    Wait, what are you talking about?
[15:37] Mumei
    We don't even know how to
    turn me back into a human!
[15:41] Mumei
    And growing rice means making paddies,
[15:44] Mumei
    which means getting rid of the kabane!
[15:48] Ikoma
    I'm going to do both.
[15:50] Mumei
    That's impossible!
[15:52] Mumei
    Just one would be hard enough!
[15:54] Ikoma
    No. I've decided.
[15:57] Ikoma
    I'm turning you back into a human.
[16:01] Mumei
    But if I'm not a kabaneri,
[16:04] Mumei
    I can't fight.
[16:06] Ikoma
    You won't need to.
[16:08] Ikoma
    The kabane will be gone.
[16:11] Mumei
    Oh yeah.
[16:13] Mumei
    That's right, isn't it?
[16:21] Takumi
    We're back!
[16:23] Suzuki
    Oh! Daita iron! That's great!
[16:37] Kotaro
    You're so good!
[16:39] Kurusu
    This isn't what my sword is for.
[16:43] Takumi
    Okay...
[16:46] Mumei
    What'd you write?
[16:48] Takumi
    Hey, don't look!
[16:51] Takumi
    Ow!
[16:54] Takumi
    Let me see...
[16:56] Takumi
    "Please let me survive."
[17:00] Takumi
    That's about all we want right now, isn't it?
[17:08] Ikoma
    Okay, I've got mine!
[17:11] Ikoma
    My wish is to destroy the kabane and
    take back all our fields and stations!
[17:19] Sukari
    Hey, that's getting too greedy.
[17:22] Ikoma
    Then you're content with just surviving?
[17:26] Ikoma
    I'm not!
[17:28] Ikoma
    I want to wish for more than survival!
[17:30] Ikoma
    I want to have more!
[17:33] Ayame
    I wrote mine, too.
[17:35] Ayame
    My wish is to rebuild Aragane Station!
[17:43] Ayame
    Was that funny?
[17:46] Kurusu
    No. I'm sure your father would be happy.
[17:50] Ayame
    Right?
[17:51] ManH
    That's right.
[17:53] ManI
    We can at least have big dreams!
[17:54] ManJ
    Especially when times are this bad!
[17:56] Takumi
    Okay! I'm gonna get rich and
    have three pretty wives!
[18:02] Ikoma
    Three?
[18:03] Takumi
    Gotta dream big, right?
[18:05] Kajika
    I want to be a teacher at a temple school!
[18:08] Sukari
    What did you say on yours, Yukina-san?
[18:10] Yukina
    I want my own hayajiro.
[18:12] Sukari
    Can I ride in it?
[18:14] Yukina
    Nope.
[18:17] Ayame
    What did you write, Kurusu?
[18:21] Kurusu
    Ayame-sama, you mustn't.
[18:22] Kurusu
    If someone sees, it won't come true.
[18:24] Ayame
    Really?
[18:26] Ayame
    I showed mine to everyone...
[18:28] Kurusu
    No, well...
[18:31] Kajika
    What did you say, Mumei-chan?
[18:34] Mumei
    I want to eat my fill of rice.
[19:27] Mumei
    Brother...
[19:30] Mumei
    It's okay.
[19:32] Mumei
    Everyone's nice.
[19:38] Ikoma
    Is your brother the one who made
    you give up the name "Hodsumi"
[19:43] Ikoma
    and told you that the weak
    had no choice but to die?
[19:47] Ikoma
    If that's true, then I...
[20:02] ManK
    The Karikatashu!
[20:03] ManL
    All hail the Liberator!
[20:09] Kajika
    Who are those people?
[20:11] Kibito
    The Karikatashu.
[20:13] Kibito
    An independent group formed
    to defeat the kabane.
[20:17] Sukari
    They've never lost a fight to the kabane.
[20:20] Sukari
    They say any land they pass
    through is cleared of kabane
[20:23] Sukari
    and returns to human hands.
[20:26] ManM
    It's Biba-sama!
[20:28] ManN
    He's so handsome!
[20:29] Man40s
    You can tell he's the son of the Shogun!
[20:32] Mumei
    Brother!
[20:35] Biba
    Mumei!
[20:37] Mumei
    I finally found you!
[20:38] Biba
    You're safe?
[20:40] Yukina
    Brother?
[20:41] Kajika
    Mumei-chan's brother is...
[20:43] Takumi
    Biba-sama?
[20:46] Biba
    Are you alone?
[20:47] Biba
    Where's Shimon?
