[00:28] Hana
    Weasel! Badger!
[00:33] Hana
    Where are you?!
SIGN    Episode 5
[02:09] Doan
    Tonight, you will bear witness
    to a menagerie of freaks,
[02:12] Doan
    gathered from distant Ryukyu, Ezo,
    and even China and the lands beyond!
[02:12] Sign
    The Doan
      Company
[02:12] Sign
    The   
    Mighty Man
     of Stone
[02:12] Sign
    The  
    Fire-Breathing 
    Daruma
[02:12] Sign
     The
     Terrifying 
    Snake-Woman
[02:12] Sign
      The
     Uncanny
    Knife-Thrower
[02:17] Doan
    A fire-breathing daruma
    who lights up the night sky,
[02:20] Doan
    a man of stone with unrivaled strength,
[02:22] Doan
    and of course, a dreadful snake-woman
    and her terrifying brood!
[02:56] Badger
    Big brother Weasel...
    Where are we? Where'd Hana go?
[03:01] Weasel
    Come on, quit crying.
[03:02] Weasel
    She said to meet up at the Jizo statue
     if we got separated, remember?
[03:08] Doan
    Well, now. Where did you two come from?
[03:15] Doan
    I must say, it seems some absolute
    treasures have found their way to me.
[03:21] Doan
    Welcome to the Doan Company.
[03:33] Soji
    All right. Time for a round to celebrate.
[03:36] Soji
    Wait, no, no. If I bet big on
    Nio's kite tomorrow, I'll score huge.
[03:41] Soji
    Where the hell's the sense
    in blowing cash before then?
[03:49] Soji
    Man, I'm still not buying it.
[03:50] Soji
    How do hands that have only ever held blades
     to kill know how to paint, of all things?
[03:58] Raizo
    When I face someone, sword in hand...
    At times, I find that time seems to stop.
[04:04] Raizo
    Much like in these pictures, really.
[04:08] Raizo
    And I have realized this same moment
    comes when I am holding a brush.
[04:12] Raizo
    Then, I need only depict what I see.
[04:15] Soji
    You mean to tell me you paint
    people the same way you kill them?
[04:20] Raizo
    No. Once you achieve that state,
    what you actually do is of little concern.
[04:25] Raizo
    "The sword and zen meditation are as one."
    I always thought the saying pretentious,
[04:30] Raizo
    but maybe it is close to the truth after all.
[04:33] Soji
    Well, shit, I like that even less.
[04:36] Soji
    If you're able to pull that off
    with a brush instead of a sword,
[04:40] Soji
    why exactly did all the people
    you killed have to die?
[04:46] Soji
    What? You mad?
[04:48] Raizo
    No. But I sincerely believe you have
    a better head on your shoulders than I.
[04:55] Soji
    Man, shut up! Go sharpen that
    butcher's knife of yours or something!
[05:03] Soji
    You better not start thinking
    you can do what the boss does.
[05:06] Soji
    By the time they first dipped him in a bath,
[05:09] Soji
    he was already the kinda monster who could
     paint, fold gold, and kill as good as anyone.
[05:15] Raizo
    Is something the matter?
[05:16] Soji
    Huh? No, man, why?
[05:19] Raizo
    Forgive me. I did not mean you.
[05:25] Hana
    My friends... Weasel and Badger...
[05:30] Hana
    They're missing.
[05:34] Soji
    I'm always tellin' Hana not to hang out with
    folk from the mountains, but she never listens.
[05:40] Raizo
    This is quite the hill.
[05:43] Raizo
    If the missing siblings lived up here,
    how could Hana have met them?
[05:48] Soji
    She tries to act grown-up,
    but she's still a little brat.
[05:52] Soji
    And sometimes, she misses her mom.
[05:55] Raizo
    I see. She was visiting her grave.
[06:01] Soji
    Aw, damn it. The kite battle's today.
[06:06] Raizo
    That thing?
[06:07] Soji
    That's right. Li'l Nio better do a good job.
[06:11] Soji
    I'm betting my whole fortune on you!
[06:14] Soji
    Bring home the big one again this year!
[06:19] Nio
    There we go! There we go!
[06:26] Nio
    Which one should I cut next?
[06:28] Villager 1
    Don't even try it, little boy!
[06:30] Villager 2
    I'll show you, little girl!
[06:31] Nio
    Boy? Girl? Which is it gonna be?
[06:35] Villager 1
    Little girl!
[06:35] Villager 2
    Little boy!
[06:40] Villager 1
    Hang on! Stay away from me!
[06:42] Villager 2
    No, stay away!
[06:45] Villager 2
    Damn it!
[06:46] Villager 2
    I said stay away!
[06:47] Doan
    Usui-san.
[06:50] Doan
    It's wonderful to see you doing so well.
[06:52] Doan
    And looking even more beautiful than before.
[06:57] Yuen
    I don't think we know each other
    well enough to celebrate meeting again.
[07:05] Doan
    Then let me get straight to the point.
[07:08] Doan
    I ask that you let me take back my monster.
[07:12] Doan
    An angel with the taint of darkness.
[07:16] Doan
    Our separation has been a folly that
    I, Doan, have regretted ever since!
[07:19] Yuen
    If you mean Nio, I don't appreciate
     you using the term "monster."
[07:24] Yuen
    And it isn't a matter of money.
[07:27] Yuen
    Nio is a human being.
[07:31] Doan
    Surely you jest!
[07:33] Doan
    All of the monstrosities in the
    Doan Company pale by comparison.
[07:37] Doan
    You're talking about an abomination
    that reigns over all others.
[07:41] Yuen
    Please leave. We have
    nothing else to discuss.
[07:44] Doan
    Do you truly think a demon would be
     pleased at being defanged, declawed,
[07:48] Doan
    and dressed as a human?
[07:50] Doan
    Usui-sama, I am asking you
    to set the beast free.
[07:55] Yuen
    Leave.
[07:57] Nio
    I wonder what I should get
    Soji to buy me when I win.
[08:00] Nio
    Hey, Yuen!
[08:10] Villagers
    Hurray!
[08:19] Raizo
    The two siblings are not the
    only ones who are missing.
[08:22] Raizo
    It seems a number of children with
    remarkable appearances have disappeared.
[08:28] Yuen
    No one cares how many children
    from the mountains go missing.
[08:33] Yuen
    That's simply how it is in Nagasaki.
[08:41] Yuen
    That said, it was likely
    the Doan Company's doing.
[08:45] Raizo
    I heard they kidnap unfortunate children
    and make them part of their show.
[08:50] Yuen
    In the past, they were a simple
    company of traveling performers.
[08:54] Yuen
    But at some point, their chief, Doan,
    began collecting children who were different,
[08:59] Yuen
    with scant regard for anything else.
[09:02] Raizo
    You know a lot about this.
[09:04] Yuen
    Nio used to be among their number.
[09:07] Yuen
    I brought that child into my care,
    because I wanted to do something.
[09:11] Yuen
    But it seems Doan regrets letting Nio go.
[09:15] Yuen
    He visited me this afternoon.
[09:17] Raizo
    And this Doan—
[09:18] Soji
    Whoa, whoa, hold on a second!
[09:21] Soji
    You mean to tell me Nio
    lost because of that guy?!
[09:25] Yuen
    It must have come as a shock, yes.
[09:28] Soji
    That don't cut it, man!
    I lost everything I had on that bet!
[09:32] Soji
    And where the hell is Nio now?
[09:34] Yuen
    In hiding for the time being,
    just to be on the safe side.
[10:11] Badger
    Let go!
[10:12] Weasel
    G-G-Get off! Put us down!
[10:40] Nio
    Doan.
[10:46] Doan
    Nio.
[10:53] Doan
    My beloved beast. Why are you here?
[10:58] Nio
    You wanted to make me yours, right?
[11:02] Doan
    Yes! I'll never let you go again!
[11:05] Doan
    You belong only to me.
[11:10] Nio
    In that case, how much are you willing to pay?
[11:20] Attraction A
    Give me my doll back.
[11:22] Attraction B
    Mommy... Mommy!
[11:26] Snake Woman
    Come on, no more crying. I've got food.
[11:29] Attraction C
    Gimme!
[11:31] Attraction misc
    I miss my mommy!
[11:31] Snake Woman
    Hang on, I've got yours right here. Just a sec.
[11:35] Snake Woman
    Here you go.
[11:39] Attraction Misc
    Give it back.
[11:41] Weasel
    Cut it out already! Put Badger down!
[11:46] Snake Woman
    Hey!
[11:48] Snake Woman
    What do you think you're doing?!
[11:55] Snake Woman
    Eat up and try to stay quiet.
[11:57] Snake Woman
    If you don't wanna end up getting
    slugged like me, you should do as they say.
[12:07] Badger
    What's gonna happen to us?
[12:13] Nio
    Well, if you learn some tricks,
    life might not be so bad.
[12:17] Badger
    Who are you?
[12:19] Nio
    I mean, it's better than
    living in the mountains.
[12:23] Nio
    You get to eat every day
    and sleep under a roof.
[12:27] Badger
    I wanna go home.
    I bet Hana's looking for us.
[12:32] Weasel
    Yeah. No way are we staying here.
[12:35] Nio
    Oh, is that right?
[12:49] Soji
    Hell yeah! Nicely done, Nio!
[12:51] Soji
    I might not starve now!
[12:54] Raizo
    So the target for revenge
    is the Doan Company.
[12:57] Raizo
    And the coin was bitten by
    the twins Hana is searching for?
[13:01] Raizo
    This works out perfectly.
[13:04] Teppa
    How exactly did some kids from
    the mountains get a gold coin?
[13:09] Teppa
    And how did you end up receiving it?
[13:11] Nio
    Does it matter?
[13:13] Nio
    I was on my way back from saying hi to Doan.
[13:17] Nio
    I came across it by chance. Honest.
[13:20] Yuen
    I asked you to stay away from Doan.
[13:22] Nio
    Oh, did you?
[13:24] Teppa
    Well, this all seems a little too convenient.
[13:27] Soji
    Whoa, excuse me, but when did we start
    questioning where the coins come from?
[13:32] Soji
    This is bitten gold, same as any other.
[13:34] Soji
    And now that it's in our hands,
[13:37] Soji
    ain't it our job as revengers to
    get to work, no questions asked?
[13:40] Soji
    Or are you gonna tell me that every
    other time, all those cases were legit?
[13:48] Teppa
    Well, you've got a point there.
[13:51] Teppa
    Once the gold bears the mark of a grudge,
     we have no choice but to act.
[13:56] Nio
    And there you have it.
    Isn't this great, Yuen?
[14:00] Nio
    Don't give me that scary look.
    You wanted him dead, too, right?
[14:06] Nio
    Oh, but Doan's mine, okay?
[14:09] Nio
    Since I'm the one who
    brought the revenge in.
[14:12] Nio
    I can have that, can't I?
[14:20] Nio
    Thanks for getting this for me so quickly.
[14:23] Nio
    I promised Doan I'd be back tonight.
[14:30] Nio
    It's too late, y'know.
[14:32] Nio
    If you wanted to keep me from going,
    you should've killed him first.
[14:37] Nio
    You could've done it without
    anyone catching on, right?
[14:42] Yuen
    It's not a question of whether anyone knows.
[14:45] Yuen
    I have already strayed from God's path.
[14:47] Yuen
    I adhere to a code because it's
    the last way I can stay faithful.
[14:56] Nio
    I don't get this stuff
    about religion and codes.
[15:02] Nio
    But I do get that we can't kill
    without a coin, because Yuen says so.
[15:07] Nio
    But we've got a coin now, so it's fine, right?
[15:15] Soji
    How's it looking? Nio said
    everything should be set.
[15:19] Soji
    You think we're gonna find
    that Doan guy snoozing?
[15:24] Raizo
    If he is the villain we have been
    told he is, I doubt he fully trusts Nio.
[15:28] Soji
    I hear that.
[15:30] Soji
    See? And here they are.
[15:33] Soji
    Okay, since we're the decoys,
    let's make this flashy...
[15:40] Soji
    I didn't mean literally!
[15:47] Soji
    Damn it.
[15:49] Soji
    Hey, samurai! You get the fat fire freak!
[16:02] Teppa
    Seems you knew we were coming.
[16:07] Teppa
    It's been a while, but...
[16:10] Teppa
    Guess it's time for a test of strength.
[16:23] Soji
    Bastard!
[16:27] Soji
    Asshole.
[16:37] Raizo
    If this keeps up...
[16:39] Soji
    He really lit a fire under us.
[16:42] Soji
    Take the whole deck, then!
[16:53] Knife thrower
    Damn you!
[17:03] Knife thrower
    Get your fat ass off me! You're in the way!
[17:13] Soji
    Well, someone sure owes someone.
[17:15] Raizo
    I do not know which of us you mean.
[17:24] Teppa
    Steady as she goes!
[17:33] Teppa
    Honestly...
[17:35] Teppa
    See what happens when you play with fire?
[17:39] Snake Woman
    Somebody! Get the keys, please!
[17:42] Snake Woman
    The kids will burn to death otherwise!
[17:48] Snake Woman
    Get out of here quick, boys!
[17:51] Snake Woman
    Help the kids who can't walk, you hear?
[17:56] Nio
    That's right. I want your eyes on me.
[18:00] Doan
    My precious abomination...
[18:03] Nio
    You wanted me to be
    yours and only yours, right?
[18:14] Doan
    Yes. I knew.
[18:21] Nio
    That's right. If you want to make sure
    I belong to you alone, this is how.
[18:47] Doan
    I can't.
[18:49] Doan
    I can't bring myself... to destroy you.
[18:53] Nio
    Okay.
[18:54] Nio
    In that case, I guess I'll have
     to make you mine, Doan.
[19:03] Doan
    Yes. From the very beginning,
    this was meant to be.
[19:10] Doan
    You exquisite creature.
[19:12] Doan
    At long last, I can become yours.
[19:18] Nio
    You've been waiting for this for a while, huh?
[19:21] Nio
    Now I'll love you, Doan.
[19:43] Hana
    Hey! Quit running!
[20:19] Nio
    This cake is expensive. What gives, Soji?
[20:21] Nio
    It must have cost most
    of your take from the job.
[20:26] Soji
    You said the other day that
    you wanted to eat your fill of it.
[20:31] Soji
    I guess I'd say... I'm just glad Hana's
    not worried sick anymore, all right?
[20:36] Nio
    But then there was no point!
[20:40] Nio
    I got those kids to bite the gold
    'cause you said you were going broke.
[20:46] Nio
    I didn't wanna hear you
    whining about the kite battle.
[20:50] Nio
    If you weren't gonna keep the money,
    I shouldn't have bothered killing Doan.
[20:53] Nio
    And those kids would've probably been
    better off there than back in the mountains.
[20:57] Soji
    What the hell? You mean to
    tell me you set up the whole thing?
[21:01] Nio
    Why are you giving me that look?
[21:03] Nio
    You're the one who said one piece of
    bitten gold is the same as any other.
[21:15] Teppa
    Nio asked me something the other day.
[21:17] Teppa
    Whether living in a town
     where I can smell the sea
[21:21] Teppa
    made me miss my old days as a scoundrel.
[21:25] Yuen
    What did you say?
[21:27] Teppa
    Same thing I said to you.
[21:29] Teppa
    I take these kinds of jobs to keep
    that side of myself in check.
[21:35] Yuen
    I doubt Nio understood what you meant.
[21:38] Teppa
    Well, that's human nature.
[21:41] Teppa
    Even if it only amounts to an excuse,
    we try to justify the things we do.
[21:46] Teppa
    Except for Nio, who doesn't feel the need.
[21:52] Yuen
    Even if that is the case...
[21:56] Yuen
    I still want Nio to live like a human being.
