[00:01] Tauemon
    Ishimaru...
[00:02] Ishimaru
    The more I look at your face,
    the more hate I feel.
[00:08] Ishimaru
    It makes me want to kill you all over again.
[00:12] Sakuna
    When did he get here?
[00:16] Tauemon
    Will you allow me to handle this?
[00:22] Tauemon
    It's been a while.
[00:25] Ishimaru
    I'll admit I'm impressed
    you've lived this long.
[00:29] Ishimaru
    It sounds like you were
    growing some good rice, too.
[00:33] Tauemon
    You understand, don't you?
[00:35] Tauemon
    Eating is the most
    important factor of survival.
[00:38] Tauemon
    If you want some of our rice, then—
[00:44] Ishimaru
    Don't get the wrong idea.
[00:46] Ishimaru
    "A samurai uses a toothpick even
     when he's got nothing to eat."
[00:49] Ishimaru
    I won't suck up to someone just for food.
[00:54] Tauemon
    But... but you're not a samurai!

    Light of Forgiveness
[02:33] Man A
    Where did they go?
[02:34] (Flashback) Man B
    Find them! Kill all the bandits!
[02:39] (Flashback) Ishimaru
    Damn. I'll kill them first.
[02:42] (Flashback) Tauemon
    Don't.
[02:43] (Flashback) Ishimaru
    You're too soft!
[02:45] (Flashback) Ishimaru
    It's kill or be killed.
[02:46] (Flashback) Ishimaru
    For us to live, we have to kill them!
[02:48] (Flashback) Tauemon
    Isn't it important to flee sometimes
    because our world works that way?
[02:54] (Flashback) Tauemon
    In order to live...
[02:58] (Flashback) Tauemon
    At times it seems to me like
    you're in a hurry to die.
[03:05] (Flashback) Tauemon
    What did you do before becoming a bandit?
[03:11] (Flashback) Tauemon
    A farmer?
[03:12] (Flashback) Tauemon
    No, based on your appearance,
    perhaps a fisherman.
[03:17] (Flashback) Tauemon
    Perhaps a carpenter.
[03:18] (Flashback) Tauemon
    No, a stonemason.
[03:20] (Flashback) Ishimaru
    Shut up! I hate you samurai!
[03:24] (Flashback) Ishimaru
    Because you won't stop fighting,
    our world has turned into this hell!
[03:29] (Flashback) Tauemon
    Perhaps you're right.
[03:32] (Flashback) Tauemon
    Not only that,
[03:33] (Flashback) Tauemon
    but I'm a samurai who became a bandit
    because I couldn't draw my sword in battle.
[03:39] (Flashback) Tauemon
    I have no reason left to live.
[03:41] (Flashback) Ishimaru
    Then die. Or shall I kill you instead?
[03:47] (Flashback) Tauemon
    Perhaps that would be acceptable.
[03:49] (Flashback) Tauemon
    I've thought countless times
    that I should die.
[03:54] (Flashback) Tauemon
    But for some reason, I want to live.
[03:56] (Flashback) Tauemon
    If I'm to die,
[03:58] (Flashback) Tauemon
    I'd like to die thinking
    I was glad to live.
[04:06] Tauemon
    Aren't you the same?
[04:09] Tauemon
    Aren't you living to find
    a reason to be glad you're alive?
[04:21] Ishimaru
    No. No, I'm not.
[04:24] Ishimaru
    It's not like that at all.
[04:27] Ishimaru
    Guys like you disgust me!
[04:56] Ishimaru
    Do it.
[04:57] Tauemon
    Ishimaru.
[04:59] Ishimaru
    Let's go back to being
    who we're supposed to be.
[05:02] Ishimaru
    You're a samurai,
    and I'm just a peasant.
[05:05] Tauemon
    That's not what I'm saying!
[05:08] Tauemon
    What good will come
    from continuing to hate each other?
[05:11] Tauemon
    Hating me won't quell any
    of the rage inside you!
[05:18] Ishimaru
    I know that already.
[05:26] Tauemon
    Kaimaru!
[05:27] Tama
    Oh, no!
[05:28] Ishimaru
    It's been a while, Kaimaru.
[05:31] Ishimaru
    Do you remember me?
[05:32] Ishimaru
    It's me.
[05:34] Ishimaru
    Ishimaru, the man who killed your father.
[05:37] Ishimaru
    He was hopelessly stubborn.
[05:41] Ishimaru
    He refused to steal from the weak.
[05:44] Ishimaru
    A bandit leader can't be acting like that.
[05:48] Ishimaru
    Don't worry. I won't kill you.
[05:51] Ishimaru
    Instead, I'll make you suffer like hell.
[05:55] Ishimaru
    Being hurt by the man
    who killed your own father
[05:58] Ishimaru
    will plant a hatred in you
    that can never be repaid.
[06:03] Tauemon
    Ishimaru...
[06:04] Ishimaru
    That's how you're going to live.
[06:08] Ishimaru
    Carrying a hatred and despair
    that never goes away,
[06:12] Ishimaru
    you'll starve, sleep,
    and be unable to die,
[06:15] Ishimaru
    living only motivated by hatred!
[06:23] Tama
    What's this?
[06:29] Ishimaru
    Stop!
[06:31] Ishimaru
    Stop! Stop talking!
[06:32] Ishimaru
    Stop talking to me!
[06:38] Sakuna
    What is this light?
[06:44] Tama
    He's probably...
[06:48] Sakuna
    A god?
[06:50] Kinta
    Kaimaru turned into a god?
[06:53] Tama
    He didn't become one.
[06:55] Tama
    Technically, he's becoming one.
[06:58] Kokorowa
    That's right. There's
    divinity growing inside him.
[07:03] Yui
    Well, that's a surprise.
[07:05] Kokorowa
    He's not the only one.
[07:07] Kokorowa
    It's probably true
    of the rest of you as well.
[07:10] Yui
    Us, too?
[07:12] Myrthe
    Will we become like Sakuna?
[07:15] Kokorowa
    Yes.
[07:16] Kokorowa
    Sakuna's mother, Lady Toyohana, was once
    a human living in the Lowly Realm.
[07:22] Kokorowa
    I hear she used her Divine Raiment to come
    to the Lofty Realm and become a god.
[07:26] Kokorowa
    Does that ring any bells?
[07:29] Kinta
    Come to think of it,
[07:31] Kinta
    lately my blacksmith's hammer
    seems like it's glowing sometimes.
[07:35] Yui
    Sometimes I feel like my loom is singing.
[07:39] Myrthe
    I've identified symptoms
    that can't be explained by medicine.
[07:45] Tauemon
    I can eat 20 bowls of rice.
[07:47] Sakuna
    That's different.
[07:49] Kokorowa
    In any case, it seems likely
    you're developing god-like powers.
[07:55] Kokorowa
    You should get used to
    them so they don't control you.
[07:59] Kinta
    A god, huh?
[08:01] Tama
    Depending on what you do next,
[08:03] Tama
    you could become wonderful
    gods like Lady Toyohana, or...
[08:13] Kinta
    This is just a temporary structure!
[08:15] Kinta
    It's dangerous in here!
    Let's go outside!
[08:21] Sakuna
    That's a pretty big one.
[08:23] Tama
    It's been happening every day
    since the mountain first spit fire.
[08:29] Sakuna
    Is it Omizuchi?
[08:31] Kokorowa
    Why don't we report this
    to Lady Kamuhitsuki?
[08:35] Sakuna
    To Lady Kamuhitsuki?
[08:36] Kokorowa
    Even Lord Takeribi had trouble
    with the evil god Omizuchi.
[08:40] Kokorowa
    Surely Lady Kamuhitsuki would do something.
[08:45] Tama
    You're right. However...
[08:50] Sakuna
    Is there a problem?
[08:52] Tama
    If Lady Kamuhitsuki goes
    to fight, we'll be at war.
[08:56] Tama
    It would be a major war involving not
    just this island, but the capital as well.
[09:02] Tama
    And if the Lofty Realm falls
    into chaos, then eventually...
[09:05] Sakuna
    There would be even greater
    chaos in the Lowly Realm.
[09:10] Tama
    Indeed.
[09:12] Tauemon
    Even more chaos?
[09:14] Yui
    If that happened,
[09:16] Yui
    no one would be able to live
    in the Lowly Realm anymore.
[09:36] Sakuna
    Kokorowa.
[09:38] Kokorowa
    You've grown quite skilled
    at using your Divine Raiment.
[09:42] Sakuna
    I've still got a lot to learn.
[09:44] Sakuna
    If anything, now that we don't have rice,
    I'm weaker than before.
[09:51] Kokorowa
    Do you intend to fight Omizuchi?
[09:54] Sakuna
    I'd love to defeat him if I could.
[09:57] Sakuna
    But if I lose, then all will be lost.
[10:02] Sakuna
    The efforts of my father,
    who defeated Omizuchi...
[10:05] Sakuna
    The efforts of my mother,
    who grew rice here...
[10:08] Sakuna
    The efforts of Ashigumo, the kappa,
    and everyone who defended the island...
[10:15] Kokorowa
    Sakuna...
[10:17] Sakuna
    My mother left me this Divine Raiment.
[10:20] Sakuna
    My father left me Tama,
    who was the Blade of Hoshidama.
[10:25] Sakuna
    I inherited heirlooms from
    a harvest goddess and a war god,
[10:29] Sakuna
    but what did I do?
[10:31] Sakuna
    I distracted myself from
    the sadness of my parents' absence
[10:35] Sakuna
    by playing, drinking,
    and sleeping every day.
[10:38] Sakuna
    If only I'd noticed sooner.
[10:41] Sakuna
    I had plenty of time to get stronger.
[10:46] Kokorowa
    Tama and Lady Kamuhitsuki
    have always been telling you
[10:51] Kokorowa
    to mend your ways
    and become a great goddess.
[10:56] Sakuna
    You're right.
[11:01] Kokorowa
    It was you who taught me there's
    no point in regretting the past.
[11:07] Sakuna
    Kokorowa...
[11:09] Sakuna
    You're right.
[11:11] Sakuna
    What's important is to have faith.
[11:14] Sakuna
    In myself, and the power my parents left me.
[11:22] Tauemon
    Sakuna...
[11:23] Sakuna
    What is it? Is it about Ishimaru?
[11:27] Tauemon
    Is fighting our only option?
[11:30] Sakuna
    He'll kill us if we show any weakness.
[11:34] Sakuna
    He showed no sign of holding back.
[11:37] Tauemon
    "Eat or be eaten. Kill or be killed."
[11:42] Tauemon
    That's what he used to say.
[11:48] Tauemon
    Even against the weak, he was merciless.
[11:52] Tauemon
    It was as though he hated himself and
    wanted to create someone who would kill him.
[11:58] Tauemon
    That's why I don't
    want to fight to the death.
[12:03] Tauemon
    If you wield a sword with hatred,
    you're playing into his hands.
[12:08] Kokorowa
    But I doubt he would listen.
[12:12] Tauemon
    Just once, he smiled.
[12:15] Sakuna
    He did?
[12:17] Tauemon
    It was when Kaimaru first began walking.
[12:28] (Flashback) Kaimaru
    For you.
[12:32] (Flashback) Ishimaru
    I don't need any.
[12:34] Tauemon
    No matter how much it deteriorates,
    that spirit is still somewhere inside Ishimaru.
[12:40] Tauemon
    That's what I want to believe.
[12:46] Ishimaru
    Damn it!
[12:47] Ishimaru
    Why am I so angry?
[12:52] Ishimaru
    What was that voice?
[13:01] Ishimaru
    The last of the Ashigumo, huh?
[13:04] Ishimaru
    Good timing. I was just feeling pissed off.
[13:08] Ishimaru
    I may look like I've fallen,
[13:11] Ishimaru
    but I've still got a bit
    of demonic energy left in me.
[13:15] Ishimaru
    I wasn't expecting anyone
    to come in the night.
[13:23] Ishimaru
    You're a dead one, huh?
[13:35] Ishimaru
    No matter. Sorry, but I
    don't believe in retribution.
[13:40] Ishimaru
    The only things here
    are strength and weakness!
SIGN    Onigiri
    
    Onigiri have been around for centuries. The archetype for the onigiri is the tonjiki.
     During the Tokugawa Era, their use as a convenient and portable "bento"
    became widespread, and they were eaten during intermissions at theatrical
    performances and on outings. Onigiri are also known as "omusubi."
     According to one theory, the name originated among housemaids because
     they were made by weaving the hands together.
    They are also said to help bring people together and defeat oni.

[14:05] Tauemon
    Ishimaru...
[14:07] Kokorowa
    Look.
[14:11] Sakuna
    What is that?
[14:14] Sakuna
    What's this?
[14:15] Tama
    Your Highness!
[14:25] Sakuna
    Ashigumo!
[14:27] Kokorowa
    Sakuna!
[14:39] Sakuna
    Are you all right?
[14:40] Ashigumo
    Yes. Thank you.
[14:42] Sakuna
    What's going on here?
[14:44] Ashigumo
    I don't know.
[14:46] Ashigumo
    The corpses of my people began moving again.
[14:49] Ashigumo
    Driven by their hatred, they're attacking
    the demons that killed them.
[14:57] Tauemon
    What's this?
[14:58] Tauemon
    Does this have something
    to do with Ishimaru?
[15:02] Tama
    The evil energy has grown stronger again.
[15:05] Tama
    Perhaps Ishimaru's powerful hatred spread,
[15:08] Tama
    and the Yomotsugami responded to it.
[15:18] Sakuna
    Tauemon!
[15:25] Tama
    Tauemon!
[15:28] Tauemon
    I am ashamed.
[15:32] Tauemon
    I'm still not ready to be a samurai.
[15:37] Tauemon
    There's no reason
    for me to live after all.
[15:40] Sakuna
    Shut up, you hopeless samurai!
[15:42] Sakuna
    How can you say you don't want to live
[15:44] Sakuna
    after serving yourself dozens
    of bowls of rice every night?
[15:48] Tauemon
    Sakuna...
[15:51] Sakuna
    You like making rice, don't you?
[15:54] Sakuna
    You like working with the soil
    and growing things, don't you?
[15:58] Sakuna
    Isn't that enough?
[16:00] Tauemon
    But...
[16:02] Sakuna
    Leave the rest to me. I love this island.
[16:07] Tauemon
    Sakuna...
[16:10] Sakuna
    Kokorowa, you handle the rest.
[16:12] Kokorowa
    Understood.
[16:14] Ashigumo
    I'll assist you.
[16:15] Sakuna
    Ashigumo.
[16:17] Ashigmo
    That voice is probably...
[16:20] Kokorowa
    Let us return to the pass.
[16:23] Tauemon
    Princess Kokorowa.
[16:27] Tauemon
    I have a request.
[16:35] Ashigumo
    It's not here.
[16:42] Ashigumo
    It seems to be calling us to it.
[16:52] Ashigumo
    This is it.
[16:54] Sakuna
    The sky...
[16:56] Sakuna
    So it's always night here.
[16:58] Tama
    The evil energy here is tremendous.
[17:01] Tama
    Keep your wits about you.
[17:30] Sakuna
    Ishimaru...
[17:31] Ashigumo
    He was consumed by the Homusubi Specter.
[17:35] Ishimaru
    Hate... hate...
[17:44] Sakuna
    What was that?
[17:46] Sakuna
    That was nothing like before.
[17:49] Tama
    Its evil energy is incredible.
[17:52] Tama
    The Homusubi Specter and Ishimaru...
[17:54] Tama
    Their hatred is responding to each
    other and running wild in there.
[18:03] Ashigumo
    I'll draw its attention!
[18:13] Sakuna
    What?
[18:31] Sakuna
    Ashigumo!
[18:32] Tama
    Your Highness!
[18:37] Sakuna
    It's fast!
[18:46] Tama
    Your Highness!
[18:49] Sakuna
    It's so fast. It's nothing like before.
[18:53] Tama
    It's too dangerous.
[18:56] Tama
    We should retreat.
[18:57] Sakuna
    But...
[19:02] Sakuna
    If I can't defeat this thing,
    then defeating Omizuchi is a wild dream.
[19:07] Sakuna
    Mother...
[19:10] Tama
    Your Highness!
[19:20] Sakuna
    What is this light?
[19:33] Tama
    Your Highness!
[19:34] Tama
    Your Highness!
[19:37] Tama
    Stop! Stop this at once!
[19:39] Tama
    This is Princess Sakuna!
[19:42] Tama
    I, the Blade of Hoshidama,
[19:44] Tama
    am prepared to sacrifice
    myself to protect her!
[19:53] Tauemon
    Ishimaru!
[20:04] Tama
    You...
[20:09] Tauemon
    What are you afraid of?
[20:11] Tauemon
    There's no need for fear,
    anger, or hate anymore.
[20:21] Tauemon
    Because you're already dead.
[20:44] Sakuna
    Tauemon...
[20:52] Ishimaru
    Well, if it isn't Katsura.
[20:58] Ishimaru
    Did you kill me?
[21:02] Tauemon
    You still don't understand?
[21:04] Tauemon
    You died long ago,
    consumed by your own hatred.
[21:12] Ishimaru
    What is this?
[21:14] Tauemon
    The rabbit you cut. I saved it.
[21:20] Tauemon
    It says that it will forgive you.
[21:23] Tauemon
    Haven't you had enough?
[21:25] Tauemon
    Free yourself from hate.
[21:29] Ishimaru
    Katsura, you truly disgust me.
[21:45] Kokorowa
    Sakuna! Are you all right?
[21:50] Sakuna
    Did the Divine Raiment protect me?
[22:11] Sakuna
    Tama.
[22:12] Tama
    Yes, Your Highness.
[22:14] Sakuna
    I love this island.
[22:17] Sakuna
    I love everyone who lives on it.
[22:21] Sakuna
    I want to protect this island, so...
[22:26] Sakuna
    So I...
[22:28] Sakuna
    I will fight Omizuchi!
[22:33] Tama
    Your Highness...
