**[00:09] Chu**
*I'm awful. I'm an awful man...*
**[00:12] Chu**
*An awful man!*
**[00:14] Chu**
*This is my last time!*
**[00:18] Chu**
It's the very last time!
**[00:27] Oma**
Hey, Chu-san...
**[00:29] Oma**
That thing you said before...
**[00:31] Oma**
It's the last time for what?
**[00:36] Chu**
My last time meeting you like this.
**[00:39] Oma**
Wait!
**[00:42] Oma**
Don't tell me...
**[00:43] Oma**
You're out of money?
**[00:50] Chu**
Yeah...

It's the work of Hakabi no Shugoro.
***SIGN*** Arson & Theft
Department
**[02:13] (Flashback) Hei**
Are you sure?
**[02:14] (Flashback) Kume**
I'm sure.
**[02:16] (Flashback) Kume**
The gravestone charm left
next to the corpse...
**[02:20] (Flashback) Kume**
It's his calling card.
**[02:22] (Flashback) Hei**
Hakabi no Shugoro...
**[02:25] (Flashback) Hei**
How difficult.
**[02:29] (Flashback) Hei**
We'll be enhancing our
patrols throughout the city.
**[02:32] (Flashback) Hei**
Make the preparations.
**[02:34] (Flashback) Hei**
Kimura...
**[02:36] (Flashback) Hei**
Chugo, you'll be part of them.
**[02:39] (Flashback) Chu**
I... will?
**[02:42] (Flashback) Sa**
Chief...
**[02:43] (Flashback) Sa**
Bunny Chu? Are you sure?
**[02:45] (Flashback) Saka**
Bunny Chu can't handle this.
**[02:48] (Flashback) Hei**
Why do you call him "Bunny Chu"?
**[02:50] (Flashback) Sawa**
Well... the sweets shop Matsumura,
near the Shiba Shinmei Temple,
**[02:54] (Flashback) ---**
sells these manju bunnies.
**[02:58] (Flashback) Sawa**
They look so much like Kimura...
**[03:01] (Flashback) Sawa**
We just couldn't help ourselves.
**[03:03] (Flashback) Hei**
Kimura.
**[03:04] (Flashback) Hei**
Why don't you fight back a bit?
**[03:06] (Flashback) Hei**
Give the paperwork a rest,
**[03:08] (Flashback) Hei**
man up, and show them what you can do.
**[03:11] (Flashback) Chu**
Um...
**[03:14] (Flashback) Chu**
Y-Yes, sir.
**[03:19] Chu**
So I went, patrolling Ueno and Yanaka.
***SIGN*** Iroha
**[03:41] (Flashback) Oma**
My name is Omatsu.
**[03:43] (Flashback) Oma**
Thank you for coming.
**[03:53] (Flashback) Oma**
So cute!
**[03:54] (Flashback) Chu**
Hey, I think you're moving a little too fast!
**[03:57] (Flashback) Oma**
When I like a customer,
I just can't hold back!
**[04:00] (Flashback) Oma**
What's your name, Mr. Samurai?
**[04:02] (Flashback) Chu**
Ch-Chugo. Um... I'm a ronin
from Ueda... in Shinano.
**[04:08] (Flashback) Oma**
Chu-san, then!
**[04:09] (Flashback) Oma**
Chu-san!
**[04:18] (Flashback) Oma**
Welcome!
**[04:21] (Flashback) Oma**
Welcome!
**[04:23] (Flashback) Oma**
Welcome!
**[04:25] (Flashback) Oma**
Welcome!
**[04:26] (Flashback) Oma**
Welcome!
**[04:27] (Flashback) Oma**
Welcome!
**[04:28] (Flashback) Oma**
Welcome!
**[04:30] (Flashback) Oma**
Welcome!
**[04:31] Oma**
And the next thing you knew,
you were out of money?
**[04:36] Chu**
I used the last of the
money my father left me.
**[04:40] Chu**
And I've borrowed to the limits
of my relatives' goodwill.
**[04:44] Chu**
There's no more blood to get from this stone.
**[04:47] Oma**
Chu-san...
**[04:51] (Flashback) Zen**
Forgive me, Chugo.
**[04:54] (Flashback) Zen**
My awkward disposition has left
me little to bequeath you.
**[05:01] (Flashback) Zen**
You get your foolish honesty from me.
**[05:08] (Flashback) Zen**
Listen to me.
**[05:10] (Flashback) Zen**
Live your life... on the
straight and narrow path.
**[05:17] (Flashback) Chu**
Father!
**[05:19] (Flashback) Chu**
Father!
**[05:23] Chu**
Father, forgive me.
**[05:28] Oma**
Chu-san!
**[05:31] Chu**
S-Silly... Cut that out.
**[05:33] Chu**
Didn't you hear what I said?
**[05:35] Oma**
Yes... I'm so happy you went
through all that just to see me.
**[05:40] Chu**
That's not the point!
**[05:42] Chu**
I'm trying to tell you...
**[05:44] Oma**
I understand.
**[05:46] Oma**
But you don't have to worry about the money.
**[05:48] Oma**
I'll handle your bill.
**[05:55] Chu**
You... how did you...
**[05:57] Oma**
Another of my customers
was willing to pay for us.
**[06:01] Oma**
So you can keep on coming.
**[06:03] Oma**
Please, hold me again.
**[06:06] Chu**
You mean it?
**[06:07] Oma**
I want you.
**[06:08] Chu**
W-Wait, that's not the main—
**[06:15] Sa**
That fool, Bunny Chu...
**[06:17] Sa**
Has he been acting strangely of late?
**[06:19] Saka**
Yes.
**[06:20] Saka**
He's seemed more refined, in a way.
**[06:25] Sa**
Does going from paperwork to patrols
really change a man that much?
**[06:29] Saka**
That steamed luster. That glowing vitality...
**[06:34] Saka**
He'd outshine even a real manju bunny.
**[06:38] Sa**
Chief!
**[06:40] Hei**
What is it?
**[06:46] Hei**
Call Kume.
**[06:48] Saka**
Yes, sir!
***SIGN*** Iroha
**[06:53] Kawa**
How's that ronin you're so fond of doing?
***SIGN*** Iroha
**[06:57] Oma**
He's coming constantly, thanks to you.
**[07:01] Oma**
But why are you doing this, Master Kawagoe?
**[07:05] Oma**
Why give me ten whole ryo?
**[07:08] Kawa**
That friend of yours was sounding
rather light in the wallet.
**[07:15] Kawa**
Hearing he's been passing
on the wine and food lately
**[07:18] ---**
inclined me to step in.
**[07:20] Oma**
Even so...
**[07:23] Kawa**
None of that, now.
**[07:24] Kawa**
I'm too old for that nonsense.
**[07:28] Kawa**
I just want to spend time with you like this.
**[07:32] Oma**
You're very strange.
**[07:34] Kawa**
I am not.
**[07:37] Kawa**
While a man engages in wicked deeds,
he may find himself doing good.
**[07:42] Kawa**
A man who mainly does good may
find himself acting wickedly.
**[07:47] Kawa**
That's how life is.
**[07:51] Oma**
Kawagoe-san, are you a wicked man?
**[07:53] Oma**
I don't believe it.
**[07:54] Kawa**
I need to be wicked to do what I do.
**[07:59] Kawa**
At any rate, it's time for
me to return to Kawagoe.
**[08:04] Kawa**
I won't make it back to Edo for a while.
**[08:07] Kawa**
Look after that ronin of yours...
**[08:10] Kawa**
Omatsu.
**[08:14] Chu**
Kawagoe-san said that?
**[08:17] Oma**
I would have liked you two to meet,
**[08:21] ---**
but I don't know if he'll come back now.
**[08:24] Chu**
I see.
**[08:26] Chu**
I was hoping to meet him and
show my appreciation, but...
**[08:32] Chu**
"While a man engages in wicked deeds,
he may find himself doing good.
**[08:35] Chu**
A man who mainly does good may
find himself acting wickedly."
**[08:39] Chu**
What a deep saying!
**[08:43] Oma**
It doesn't make any sense to me.
**[08:45] Chu**
No, finer words were never spoken!
**[08:47] Chu**
Master Kawagoe is a true master of life!
**[08:50] Chu**
I'm sure he is!
**[08:55] Sa**
You great fool!
**[08:57] Sa**
Skipping patrol to engage in
afternoon delight at a brothel?
**[09:01] Sa**
And you call yourself a samurai!
**[09:04] Sa**
You call yourself part of
the Arson & Theft Department?!
**[09:06] Chu**
F-Forgive me!
**[09:08] Sa**
I was wondering why you were acting
so pleased with yourself lately.
**[09:12] Sa**
I could call you Weasel Chu. Rat Chu!
**[09:16] Sa**
Maybe Mouse Chu!
**[09:18] Sa**
You can spend the rest of your life
crawling around the floorboards!
**[09:21] Hei**
That's enough, Sajima.
**[09:24] Sa**
Sir...
**[09:26] Hei**
Hey, Bunny Chu.
**[09:29] Hei**
I know I told you to man up...
**[09:32] Hei**
But I think you chose the
wrong way to go about it.
**[09:37] Hei**
I'm putting you on office duty for a while.
**[09:40] Chu**
Sir!

**[09:55] Kawa**
Excuse me.
**[09:58] Oto**
Well, well, if it isn't Master Kawagoe.
**[10:00] Oto**
Join me in the back.
**[10:02] Oto**
Sadahachi, look after things here.
**[10:04] Sada**
Sir.
**[10:06] Oto**
Tea, if you like.
**[10:11] Kawa**
What are these?
**[10:12] Oto**
They've been popular lately.
**[10:20] Kawa**
Are things proceeding as planned?
**[10:23] Oto**
Yes, sir.
**[10:24] Oto**
Everything's in perfect order.
**[10:26] Kawa**
This will be our last job in Edo.
**[10:29] Kawa**
I want to make it a smash-and-grab job...
**[10:32] Kawa**
Since we'll be refraining
from big jobs in Sendai.
**[10:36] Oto**
Understood.
**[10:38] Oto**
But Boss, you know...
**[10:42] Oto**
Your love life?
**[10:45] Oto**
You've been frequenting the Iroha Teahouse,
**[10:46] ---**
where the authorities could
burst in at any time.
**[10:50] Oto**
It's had me worried.
**[10:55] Kawa**
Listen, Otokichi.
**[10:57] Kawa**
Do you remember a woman named Oshizu?
**[11:01] Oto**
Yes...
**[11:02] Oto**
I do remember.
**[11:05] Oto**
But that was twenty years ago...
**[11:08] Kawa**
I met a woman with similarly
fine features and disposition.
**[11:13] Kawa**
It's not a mad infatuation
or anything like that.
**[11:17] Kawa**
It's just pleasing to have her dote on me.
**[11:23] Oto**
For heaven's sake, Boss...
**[11:29] Oto**
Excuse me.
**[11:31] Oto**
The item you asked for.
**[11:35] Kawa**
Don't worry. I can keep the two separated.
**[11:38] Kawa**
Despite how I look, I'm
still Hakabi no Shugoro,
**[11:42] ---**
known for his violent thefts.
**[11:46] Kawa**
Let the others know...
**[11:49] Kawa**
This job will really send the blood flying.
**[11:59] Sa**
That fool, Bunny Chu...
**[12:01] Sa**
Has he been acting strangely of late?
**[12:02] Ko**
Yes. The swelling sense of
satisfaction is gone like a dream.
**[12:08] Sawa**
He looks half-dead.
**[12:10] Sawa**
We can't tease him like this.
**[12:13] Ko**
They say a rabbit can die of sorrow.
**[12:16] Ko**
Has something sad happened to him?
**[12:20] Ko**
Chief!
**[12:21] Hei**
What is it?
**[12:33] Chu**
*Lonely...*
**[12:36] Chu**
*I'm so lonely!*
**[12:39] Chu**
Omatsu!
**[12:43] Ban**
Did you hear something?
**[12:45] Ban**
Yes.
***SIGN*** Arson & Theft
**[12:48] Ban**
O-Oh, hello there.
**[12:49] Ban**
Thank you for your service.
**[12:52] Chu**
I didn't hear anything.
**[12:54] Chu**
Did you?
**[12:56] Ban**
N-No...
**[12:57] Ban**
Nothing, really...
**[12:58] Chu**
Good.
**[13:00] Chu**
Stay on your guard.
**[13:04] Chu**
The Arson & Theft label works like a charm!
**[13:08] Chu**
I owe you one, lantern buddy!
**[13:15] Chu**
Preparations complete.
**[13:17] Chu**
Wait for me, Omatsu! I'm coming.
**[13:24] Chu**
That's right.
**[13:25] Chu**
I need to hide this, or they'll know who I am.
**[13:35] Chu**
*Just pretend you didn't see that.*
**[13:37] Chu**
*Omatsu's waiting!*
**[13:42] Chu**
*You get your foolish honesty from me.*
**[13:48] (Flashback) Chu**
Listen to me.
**[13:50] (Flashback) Chu**
Live your life... on the
straight and narrow path.
**[13:57] Chu**
*Father...*
**[13:58] Chu**
*Why do I have to think about that now?*
**[14:03] Chu**
*Damn it!*

Where's the boss?
**[14:11] Oto**
Not here yet.
**[14:12] Oto**
You're the fourth.
**[14:13] Oto**
Eight remain.
**[14:17] Chu**
N-N-Not good!
**[14:19] Chu**
They're planning some kind of big break-in!
**[14:29] Chu**
Yeah, I can see it.
**[14:32] Chu**
Sorry to bother you this
late at night, sir.
**[14:34] Monk**
It's gladly done.
**[14:36] Chu**
I'd like to ask one more favor.
**[14:39] Chu**
Take that lantern to the precinct
office by Shimizu Gate.
**[14:42] Chu**
Tell them what's happening here.
**[14:47] Chu**
Go on.
**[14:48] Man**
Yes, sir.

*I need to make sure I watch every one.*
**[15:08] Hei**
How many now?
**[15:10] Chu**
I wrote it down there...
**[15:14] Chu**
Chief!
**[15:17] Hei**
Eleven, eh?
**[15:18] Hei**
That means there's one left.
**[15:20] Chu**
Y-Yes.
**[15:22] Hei**
You're sure it's a thieves' den?
**[15:25] Chu**
Yes.
**[15:26] Hei**
I'm impressed that you're
on a patrol at this hour.
**[15:31] Hei**
It's very admirable.
**[15:32] Chu**
N-Not at all.
**[15:33] Saka**
Yes, it's admirable.
***SIGN*** Arson & Theft
**[15:35] Ko**
Extremely admirable.
**[15:39] Hei**
Hey.
**[15:48] Hei**
Take your positions.
**[15:50] Hei**
Chugo, you keep watch on the front.
**[15:53] Hei**
If anyone we missed comes out,
**[15:55] Hei**
don't hesitate to slay them.
**[15:57] Chu**
Y-Yes, sir!
**[16:07] Hei**
I am Hasegawa Heizo of the
Arson & Theft Department!
**[16:10] Hei**
Give yourselves up!
**[16:43] Chu**
Surrender now!
**[16:49] Shu**
Pathetic child!
**[17:13] Shu**
O...matsu...
**[17:29] Hei**
Hey, Chugo!
**[17:32] Hei**
You okay?
**[17:34] Chu**
Y-Yes...
**[17:39] Hei**
You know the man you finished off?
**[17:42] Hei**
That was Hakabi no Shugoro.
**[17:45] Hei**
We retrieved a gravestone
charm from his robe.
**[17:49] Hei**
It's a real accomplishment.
**[17:52] Hei**
This is my reward to you.
**[17:55] Hei**
Take it. Don't hold back.
**[17:59] Chu**
I can't accept this.
**[18:02] Hei**
Why not?
**[18:03] Chu**
Well... the truth is...
**[18:07] Chu**
I... I wasn't actually heading out on patrol.
**[18:11] Chu**
I was sneaking out to see a
woman at the Iroha Teahouse.
**[18:16] Chu**
And... I'm very sorry!
**[18:24] Hei**
Bunny Chu...
**[18:25] Hei**
Don't be so stiff.
**[18:28] Hei**
The nature of man is to
balance work and pleasure.
**[18:32] Hei**
While a man engages in wicked deeds,
he may find himself doing good.
**[18:36] Hei**
A man who mainly does good may
find himself acting wickedly.
**[18:41] Hei**
That's how life is.
**[18:46] Hei**
What's wrong?
**[18:48] Chu**
Nothing...
**[18:50] Hei**
Well, I'm tired.
**[18:53] Hei**
Would you mind rubbing my shoulders?
**[18:57] Chu**
Yes, sir.
**[19:02] Hei**
You're very good at that.
**[19:03] Hei**
Fantastic technique!
**[19:05] Chu**
I frequently massaged my
late father's shoulders.
**[19:11] Hei**
He passed six years ago, didn't he?
**[19:16] Hei**
I'm told he was serious and passionate
about his work, but also kind.
**[19:23] Hei**
Though this was before my time,
so I never met him.
**[19:35] Chu**
S-Sorry.
**[19:40] Hei**
The truth is, the Iroha Teahouse
is closing today.
**[19:47] Hei**
Lord Shirakawa wouldn't stop complaining.
**[19:51] Hei**
"To think of such a place so close
to the shogun's family cemetery."
**[19:55] Hei**
So they're closing it down.
**[20:00] Hei**
You could still make it in time.
**[20:05] Chu**
Thank you for the three ryo.
**[20:09] Chu**
As a farewell gift to Omatsu, the woman
at Iroha Teahouse who looked after me...
**[20:15] Chu**
And as severance for the man I used to be.
***SIGN*** Iroha
**[20:30] Woman**
Oh, Chu-san.
**[20:32] Chu**
Mistress?
**[20:33] Woman**
I'm so sorry about the sudden closure.
**[20:36] Woman**
You're looking for Omatsu?
**[20:39] Woman**
She's been moved to Yoshiwara.
**[20:41] Woman**
A place called the Hishi-ya.
**[20:43] Woman**
She's said she'd be waiting for you.
**[20:46] Woman**
But now, Chu-san, look that way.
**[20:49] Woman**
Go on.
**[20:51] Woman**
It's true. You look just like your father!
**[20:55] Woman**
Calling yourself a ronin from Shinano...
how heartless!
**[20:58] Woman**
Had you given your full name from the start,
**[21:00] ---**
I would have seen to you personally.
**[21:02] Woman**
You see, yesterday, Hasegawa-sama stopped by,
**[21:05] Woman**
and offered to pay any
expenses you'd racked up.
**[21:09] Woman**
I said, "Which ronin was that?"
**[21:11] Woman**
And he said it was an employee
of his named Kimura Chugo.
**[21:15] Woman**
I said, "The son of Kimura Yoshiyuki-sama?"
**[21:18] Woman**
My goodness, I was so surprised!
**[21:21] Woman**
That's right. Your father
was a customer of mine!
**[21:25] Woman**
He was so terribly kind to me.
**[21:28] Woman**
Even when times were hard,
he always found the money to pay me.
**[21:33] Woman**
And he was quite good in other departments.
**[21:35] Woman**
It must be fate that Omatsu
would fall for you.
**[21:40] Woman**
Now, take care of yourself, Chu-san.
**[21:51] Fb**
* Live your life... on the*

**[21:55] Chu**
That...

That rotten old man!

Wait for me, Omatsu!
**[22:03] Chu**
I'm on my way!
