[00:09] ---
    What do you mean by that?
[00:14] ---
    I don't mean anything else.
[00:19] ---
    I just got sick of something
    so miserable as pickpocketing.
[00:26] ---
    I don't like you. You're too cheeky.
[00:29] ---
    This is as good an opportunity as any.
[00:31] ---
    I'll take my time and
    show you just who is the master here.
[00:36] ---
    Mm, I worked up a good sweat.
[00:39] ---
    Now I'll go home
    and take a nice long bath.
[00:42] ---
    Oh, I wonder if Kenshin
    properly drew a bath yet?
[00:46] ---
    He went home before me,
    so at least he could do as much.
[00:50] ---
    Hmm?
[00:55] ---
    Wait, that's...
[02:27] ---
    EPISODE 3: KASSHIN-RYU - REBORN
[02:33] ---
    KANTO SHUEI GROUP
[02:38] ---
    Stubborn brat.
[02:40] ---
    All he had to do was make one apology.
[02:43] ---
    Hold up.
[02:45] ---
    Your nickname is Hitokiri Gaskeh.
[02:48] ---
    If you do any more than that,
    he'll really die.
[02:51] ---
    Boss...
[02:52] ---
    Yahiko... if you're
    gonna quit pickpocketing,
[02:55] ---
    how do you plan to live?
[02:58] ---
    If you think you'll somehow get by
    'cause you're a samurai,
[03:01] ---
    you're sorely mistaken.
[03:04] ---
    The Meiji era
    is all about cold, hard cash.
[03:08] ---
    Your pride ain't worth a penny,
    no matter how much you got of it.
[03:13] ---
    Rather, samurai hold on
    to something like that for dear life.
[03:18] ---
    And that's why
    they quickly see hard times.
[03:23] ---
    And lately, wives and daughters
    of previous daimyos
[03:26] ---
    are all over the red-light district.
[03:30] ---
    Catch a band of thieves, and sometimes
    they're all samurai fallen from grace.
[03:35] ---
    How miserable.
[03:37] ---
    Forget that you were born
    a samurai, Yahiko...
[03:41] ---
    and learn to live despicably.
[03:45] ---
    That way, I'll keep you around
    for a long time as one of my henchmen.
[03:53] ---
    Don't make me say it over and over.
[03:55] ---
    I've had enough.
[03:58] ---
    You little punk!
[04:00] ---
    What an attitude against our boss!
[04:02] ---
    He's the one who saved your life
    after your parents croaked!
[04:07] ---
    Yum.
[04:08] ---
    That's enough, already!
[04:10] ---
    You say samurai, but your dad only
    had 30 koku and fed only two people.
[04:14] ---
    He was a poor, stupid vassal!
[04:15] ---
    He stood up against the Imperial Army
    early in the revolution
[04:18] ---
    and got slaughtered!
[04:20] ---
    And your mother sold herself
    at the red-light district,
[04:23] ---
    then croaked from an illness! What a fool!
[04:26] ---
    I don't know who you're more like,
[04:28] ---
    but this kid definitely comes
    from those stupid parents!
[04:30] ---
    Shut up!
[04:35] ---
    Mr. Gaskeh!
[04:38] ---
    Father felt disdain
    for going with the flow
[04:41] ---
    and betraying the Shogunate
    by siding with the Imperial Army!
[04:44] ---
    That's why he joined the Shogitai
    and made a righteous sacrifice!
[04:47] ---
    Mother whittled her life away
    working to raise me and fell to illness!
[04:55] ---
    They both had pride and lived noble lives!
[04:59] ---
    I will never allow anyone
    to speak badly of them!
[05:03] ---
    I'm the one that won't allow you, brat!
[05:07] ---
    I'll slaughter you!
[05:09] ---
    Huh?
[05:15] ---
    Wh-Who the hell are you?
[05:18] ---
    It's a raid! Everyone get 'im!
[05:22] ---
    Calling for them is useless.
[05:24] ---
    They wouldn't let me in,
[05:26] ---
    so I had everyone outside this room
    take a short nap.
[05:29] ---
    Wha...
[05:31] ---
    I am Kenshin Himura, a rurouni.
[05:33] ---
    I have come here for you
    to hand the kiddo over to me.
[05:37] ---
    You came here, my ass!
[05:39] ---
    Mr. Gaskeh!
[05:40] ---
    Are you a samurai as well?
[05:41] ---
    I'll round y'all up and kill ya—
[05:45] ---
    I'm in the middle of a conversation.
[05:47] ---
    You stay quiet for a while there.
[05:50] ---
    Mr. Gaskeh!
[05:52] ---
    So how about it, Mr. Boss?
[05:54] ---
    Why don't you show your big heart
[05:57] ---
    and willingly let go of that kiddo,
    that you will?
[06:03] ---
    I believe that would be a lot better
[06:04] ---
    than the shame of all your henchmen
    being routed coming out into the open.
[06:11] ---
    A-All right.
[06:14] ---
    Take him as you please.
[06:16] ---
    Thank you.
[06:17] ---
    Apologies for asking such a huge favor.
[06:20] ---
    Are you all right, kiddo, that is?
[06:23] ---
    I didn't know where you were.
[06:25] ---
    I'm late because I visited
    each and every group.
[06:30] ---
    Who asked you to save me?
[06:33] ---
    I was able to fight on my own!
[06:35] ---
    I could have fought!
[06:39] ---
    I see.
[06:40] ---
    It seems I have underestimated you
    yet again, kiddo, that I have.
[06:46] ---
    Then at the least allow me
    to treat your wounds
[06:49] ---
    in place of an apology, that I should.
[06:53] ---
    B-Bastard! You ain't getting' away!
[06:54] ---
    Stop it! Don't mess with him!
[06:57] ---
    Those are the eyes of a manslayer.
[07:00] ---
    Not just a Yakuza manslayer...
[07:03] ---
    a real one.
[07:07] ---
    I didn't think someone with those eyes
    would be left in these days of Meiji.
[07:12] ---
    You can't have enough lives
    going against the likes of those.
[07:17] ---
    It's a great deal if one brat
    will let us off the hook.
[07:23] ---
    Damn it.
[07:25] ---
    Damn it. Damn it.
[07:29] ---
    Damn it. Damn it.
[07:33] ---
    Is your lack of strength
    that frustrating, kiddo?
[07:38] ---
    Damn it.
[07:39] ---
    I wanna become stronger.
[07:42] ---
    So much that I won't need your help...
[07:45] ---
    so that I can protect the honor
    of Father and Mother on my own.
[07:54] ---
    I wanna become stronger
[08:01] ---
    KAMIYA KASSHIN
    SCHOOL OF KENDO
[08:02] ---
    They're late.
[08:04] ---
    Well, this is Kenshin we're talking about,
    so I'm sure he's fine.
[08:07] ---
    But that kid...
[08:12] ---
    I'm home, that I am.
[08:14] ---
    Welcome home.
[08:16] ---
    He's badly hurt, as I expected.
[08:18] ---
    I have a ride waiting
    out in the main street,
[08:19] ---
    so we need to hurry to a doctor.
[08:21] ---
    The acting master of Kamiya Kasshin-ryu,
    Miss Kaoru Kamiya.
[08:27] ---
    She'll be your instructor from now on,
    that she will.
[08:31] ---
    Hold on a sec!
[08:32] ---
    You want me to learn swordsmanship?
[08:34] ---
    From this ugly hag, to boot?
[08:35] ---
    Instructor? You can't mean bringing
    this kid in as an apprentice?
[08:38] ---
    Yup!
[08:42] ---
    Now, everything from here
    is depending on your own effort.
[08:45] ---
    I took the time
    to set everything up for you.
[08:48] ---
    You can become
    as strong as you want, Yahiko.
[08:52] ---
    You know what?
[08:54] ---
    You said, "ugly hag" again just now,
    didn't you?
[08:56] ---
    Yeah! What of it, ugly hag?
[08:58] ---
    What of it? I told you
    that you should stop doing that!
[09:00] ---
    Oro?
[09:01] ---
    - Ugly, ugly, ugly, ugly, ugly hag!
    - Huh?!
[09:02] ---
    RUROUNI KENSHIN
[09:05] ---
    Well, in any case,
    first try holding one.
[09:08] ---
    Here.
[09:11] ---
    Huh? What are you doing?
[09:13] ---
    Shut up! I have no idea
    why you're bossing me around, ugly hag!
[09:16] ---
    I told you not to call me an ugly hag!
[09:19] ---
    You'll pay for it!
[09:20] ---
    Yeah! Go ahead and try, if you can!
[09:22] ---
    Oro.
[09:23] ---
    Both of them have strong wills,
    that they do.
[09:26] ---
    Kenshin, you need to tell him, too!
[09:28] ---
    He has too foul a mouth!
[09:30] ---
    Come, now. He is
    your eagerly awaited student, that he is.
[09:33] ---
    You should take better care of him.
[09:34] ---
    Better care, you say?
[09:37] ---
    KAMIYA KASSHIN
    SCHOOL OF KENDO
[09:39] ---
    One, two, three...
[09:41] ---
    Amazing! There are over 15 here!
[09:45] ---
    The rumors of defeating
    the Sword Bearing Police must have spread!
[09:48] ---
    This will let me revive
    the Kamiya Kasshin-ryu!
[09:51] ---
    This isn't good.
[09:52] ---
    Huh?
[09:53] ---
    Hey, all of you. I do not practice
    the sword style taught here,
[09:58] ---
    and I have no intention
    of taking an apprentice.
[10:00] ---
    If you came here
    after seeing yesterday's incident...
[10:03] ---
    I'm sorry, but I have to ask you
    to leave, that I do.
[10:10] ---
    There we go.
[10:13] ---
    Heh!
[10:16] ---
    If you didn't send everyone back
    that day,
[10:19] ---
    I would have endless lessons
    to give to students!
[10:21] ---
    Unexpected students who join for curiosity
[10:24] ---
    won't even last six months,
    that they don't.
[10:27] ---
    And that wouldn't have any meaning.
[10:30] ---
    More than that, slowly training someone
[10:32] ---
    who really wants to get into it
    is better, that it is.
[10:36] ---
    Hey, I came here
    so that I could become stronger.
[10:39] ---
    But it's out of the question
    if I have to deal with a young girl.
[10:42] ---
    A y—
[10:43] ---
    KAORU KAMIYA
[10:43] ---
    STUDENT
[10:43] ---
    ACTING MASTER
[10:44] ---
    Kenshin, you told me to become stronger.
[10:45] ---
    STUDENT
[10:45] ---
    KAORU KAMIYA
[10:46] ---
    Then teach me your sword instead.
[10:48] ---
    STUDENT
[10:49] ---
    I have no intent
    on teaching Hiten Mitsurugi-ryu
[10:51] ---
    to future generations, that I don't.
[10:53] ---
    I am simply a supervisor.
[10:56] ---
    Yahiko, you should learn
    Kamiya Kasshin-ryu
[10:58] ---
    and become stronger
    with a life-giving sword.
[11:01] ---
    You'll pay for it!
[11:02] ---
    Try me!
[11:03] ---
    Though, they aren't listening,
    that they aren't.
[11:03] ---
    Oh, is that okay?
[11:04] ---
    Yeah! Come at me!
[11:10] ---
    Hey!
[11:11] ---
    Stop right there!
[11:15] ---
    Yahiko!
[11:17] ---
    Yahiko!
[11:18] ---
    Yahiko!
[11:20] ---
    Sheesh, the moment I take my eyes off him,
    he slacks off.
[11:25] ---
    A foul-mouthed, cynical kid
    with no guts whatsoever.
[11:28] ---
    Kenshin, what exactly did you see
[11:30] ---
    in—Him?
[11:32] ---
    I sat quietly, and you
    mouth off to your heart's content!
[11:35] ---
    I don't recall ever being
    a student of this place!
[11:38] ---
    Compared to being taught by you,
    studying on my own is a lot better!
[11:42] ---
    In the first place, all the casuals aside,
[11:45] ---
    now that your false accusation
    has been cleared,
[11:47] ---
    why didn't any of your students
    return here?
[11:52] ---
    That's because...
[11:54] ---
    Maybe all of them got sick of you
    as the acting master?
[12:06] ---
    M-Miss Kaoru!
[12:08] ---
    Pl-Please help!
[12:11] ---
    Hira! And Sato, too!
[12:13] ---
    How'd you get those wounds?
[12:15] ---
    What happened to you?
[12:18] ---
    You can't run anymore!
[12:20] ---
    You're dead meat!
[12:22] ---
    And who exactly are you?
[12:24] ---
    What do you want
    with my former students?
[12:26] ---
    Shut up! Don't get in our way!
[12:39] ---
    What exactly is this about?
[12:41] ---
    Can you explain?
[12:44] ---
    Well, um...
[12:46] ---
    we ran across a drunken group of guys
    causing a riot in town.
[12:49] ---
    Right. They were causing trouble
    to everyone around them,
[12:53] ---
    so we held them down.
[12:55] ---
    Their buddies all came
    and resented what we did,
[12:57] ---
    so now they're chasing after us.
[13:01] ---
    Where'd they go?
[13:02] ---
    This way!
[13:05] ---
    Found 'em!
[13:06] ---
    Th-They have so many buddies.
[13:09] ---
    That's too many enemies!
[13:10] ---
    Everyone, go into the dojo!
[13:16] ---
    Damn it!
[13:17] ---
    Mr. Hachisuka!
[13:18] ---
    Heh. Great.
[13:20] ---
    Just great.
[13:22] ---
    Show 'em what it means to make fun
    of the Hishimanji Guren Gang!
[13:29] ---
    Now I remember.
[13:30] ---
    That's the Hishimanji Guren Gang.
[13:33] ---
    Hishimanji Guren Gang?
[13:35] ---
    A group of thugs,
    like a reserve army of criminals.
[13:38] ---
    Because they don't know their limits,
[13:39] ---
    they're more tenacious and ill-natured
    than even Yakuza.
[13:42] ---
    But this is a problem.
[13:44] ---
    Of all times,
    they came when Kenshin isn't here.
[13:47] ---
    Wha? I thought I didn't see him.
[13:49] ---
    Where the hell did he go?
[13:51] ---
    I asked him to go shopping.
[13:53] ---
    Rice, salt, miso, and soy sauce.
[13:56] ---
    You idiot. Is there a need
    to buy all of that at once?
[14:00] ---
    Wh-What should we do, Miss Kaoru?
[14:02] ---
    Don't "What should we do" us.
[14:04] ---
    This is something you guys started.
[14:06] ---
    It's not their fault.
[14:09] ---
    Are you a genuine idiot?
[14:11] ---
    Are you taking
    what they're saying seriously?
[14:13] ---
    Huh?
[14:16] ---
    You two have been reeking of booze
    since you came here.
[14:19] ---
    I'm guessing that the guys
    who got drunk and caused a riot
[14:22] ---
    were probably you two,
    not the Hishimanji guys.
[14:24] ---
    And through drunken momentum,
[14:26] ---
    you picked a fight
    against their underlings, right?
[14:29] ---
    Is that so?
[14:34] ---
    Is that really true?
[14:38] ---
    I'm sorry.
[14:45] ---
    Turtling up is useless
    against the Hishimanji!
[14:48] ---
    Come on out, damn it!
    I'll crush you, ragtag dojo and all!
[14:53] ---
    A wooden cannon!
[14:53] ---
    He's got something that terrible?
[14:57] ---
    Wooden cannon—a simple cannon
    used up until the Bakumatsu Era.

[15:01] ---
    The force of clay balls
    shot out of oak-wood barrels

[15:05] ---
    can hold its own
    against normal cannons at close range.

[15:09] ---
    Are you surprised?
[15:11] ---
    This is the true power of the Hishimanji!
[15:13] ---
    Just 'cause you learned
    a bit of swordsmanship
[15:15] ---
    doesn't mean you can get all stuck-up!
[15:17] ---
    I'll get plenty of revenge
    for my buddy that got a broken arm!
[15:22] ---
    You guys swung swords around
    in a drunken fight
[15:26] ---
    and injured someone else?
[15:29] ---
    Those guys are idiots
    that don't know their bounds,
[15:32] ---
    but these guys
    are scum who sunk even lower.
[15:34] ---
    I mean, "former students"
    means that they scurried off
[15:37] ---
    during the crossroad killings incident,
    right guys?
[15:41] ---
    The fact you're trying to seek refuge
    in the dojo is barking up the wrong tree!
[15:49] ---
    You can't run anymore. Come out!
[15:53] ---
    Go ahead and take them.
[15:54] ---
    They got nothin' to do with us anymore.
[15:56] ---
    N-No way.
[15:58] ---
    Moron! You too! That girl over there
[16:01] ---
    is in the same boat
    'cause she hid 'em from me.
[16:05] ---
    What was that?
[16:06] ---
    I'll take whatever revenge
    you want to deal.
[16:11] ---
    So keep your hands off of these three.
[16:14] ---
    Hold on a sec. What's that about?
[16:16] ---
    My late father and I
    taught these two swordsmanship.
[16:20] ---
    Although they no longer study under us,
[16:23] ---
    I do have some responsibility
    for their foolish swords.
[16:26] ---
    I thought I was doing my best
[16:29] ---
    to teach the way of a life-giving sword
    that can be of use for others...
[16:33] ---
    but I guess it was just wishful thinking.
[16:37] ---
    Yahiko, as long as you feel
    that you want to become stronger,
[16:41] ---
    you can improve anywhere you go.
[16:43] ---
    So you should do your best.
[16:47] ---
    You're going to take on
    all of their crimes?
[16:52] ---
    Well, it's not bad to face
    a martial arts girl every so often.
[17:00] ---
    Gimme a break!
[17:03] ---
    Don't lump me, Yahiko Myojin,
    together with these two scumbags!
[17:07] ---
    I can't just let you alone feel
    the pain of all this and end it like that!
[17:11] ---
    Mr. Hachisuka!
[17:12] ---
    This brat!
[17:14] ---
    You're not getting away with this!
    I'll slaughter you!
[17:17] ---
    Slaughter?
[17:19] ---
    That's far from quaint, that it is.
[17:22] ---
    Kenshin!
[17:24] ---
    I don't know the circumstances,
[17:26] ---
    but no need for you
    to pull out the wooden cannon.
[17:29] ---
    Let's stop getting carried away.
[17:31] ---
    Don't act out of stupidity,
    that you shouldn't.
[17:33] ---
    Shut up! Who the hell are you?
[17:35] ---
    Mr. Hachisuka, this isn't good.
    This guy is—
[17:38] ---
    Huh?
[17:39] ---
    You know that rurouni
    who's the talk of the town
[17:41] ---
    after crushing
    the Sword Bearing Police by himself?
[17:44] ---
    If I recall, this guy is the one.
[17:46] ---
    Idiot! Why are you cowering
    over one simple rurouni?
[17:50] ---
    We have this on our side!
[17:52] ---
    Ready the wooden cannon!
[17:54] ---
    Yeah!
[17:56] ---
    Kenshin!
[17:56] ---
    Fire!
[18:09] ---
    This blade on my sakabato mercilessly
    slices apart anything other than humans.
[18:15] ---
    I will say it again.
[18:19] ---
    Stop acting out of stupidity.
[18:23] ---
    Great.
[18:25] ---
    Just great!
[18:27] ---
    Hey, guys!
[18:28] ---
    Y-Yeah?
[18:29] ---
    Let's beat it!
[18:33] ---
    I see. So something like that
    had happened while I was out, that it did.
[18:38] ---
    Um...
[18:39] ---
    It's fine. You guys should go home now.
[18:42] ---
    And forget that you
    were ever a student here.
[18:46] ---
    And never hold swords in your hands.
[18:51] ---
    Hira.
[18:55] ---
    That wound on your shoulder...
[18:57] ---
    make sure to get it checked out
    by a doctor.
[19:06] ---
    STUDENT
[19:12] ---
    Please cheer up, Miss Kaoru.
[19:17] ---
    No matter how hard you try in good faith,
[19:21] ---
    there are times the feelings
    don't come across, that there are.
[19:26] ---
    Don't you be sobbing. It's not like you.
[19:36] ---
    I won't end up like those guys.
[19:39] ---
    So I'll be one of your students.
[19:43] ---
    It's impossible for me to immediately
    become someone like Kenshin.
[19:46] ---
    So I'll settle
    for someone like you for now.
[19:52] ---
    Now let's hurry up
    and clean this place up to practice!
[19:56] ---
    However...
[19:58] ---
    there are those that will squarely accept
    your good faith, that there are.
[20:10] ---
    There's no time to waste.
[20:12] ---
    Hurry on over, Kaoru!
[20:13] ---
    I wanna become strong real quick!
[20:15] ---
    First it's "ugly hag"!
    Now you ditch honorifics?
[20:17] ---
    KAMIYA KASSHIN-RYU
[20:18] ---
    Kamiya Kasshin-ryu has no master.
[20:22] ---
    Acting master, Kaoru Kamiya.
[20:25] ---
    Student, Yahiko Myojin.
[20:28] ---
    And rurouni, Kenshin Himura.
[20:31] ---
    One day in early spring
    in the 11th year of Meiji,

[20:34] ---
    a small, new step was definitely taken.
[22:15] ---
    All right! We're defeated! You're strong!
[22:18] ---
    Now let us go! We were just frustrated!
[22:20] ---
    No need to say anything. I'm done.
[22:23] ---
    You guys are way too weak.
[22:27] ---
    If I keep going,
    it will just end up being bullying.
[22:32] ---
    BAD
[22:33] ---
    Man, I sure got myself
    into a really boring fight.
[22:38] ---
    Aren't there any good tough guys
    out there somewhere?
