Insolent old man.

What?
[00:43] Ichibanboshi
Hey.
[00:44] Ichibanboshi
Do you guys know the samurai
who wear these masks?
[00:47] Ronin B
Asshole.
[00:50] Ronin C
Where did you get that?
[00:52] Ichibanboshi
Looks like I finally found you.
[01:01] Ronin B
Who are you?

Damn it! Let go of me!
[01:23] Ichibanboshi
Long before I was born,
[01:25] Ichibanboshi
someone, somewhere, turned this
world into absolute shit.
[01:31] Ichibanboshi
And this shit world still
smells like shit to this day.
[01:38] Ichibanboshi
Samurai are samurai, and peasants are peasants.
[01:42] Ichibanboshi
Wretches die wretched deaths.
[01:54] Ugo
This is ridiculous. Where are we?
[01:59] Sogen
It would seem my heart is still beating.
[02:02] Suzuran
Have we arrived at the Sanzu River?
[02:05] Gyataro
Did you have to tie us up so tight?
[02:08] Bo
Huh?
[02:10] Akira
Who...
[02:11] Sakuya
...are you?
[02:14] Todo
I am the eighth unit captain of the

[02:19] Todo
Todo Heisuke.
[02:22] Ichibanboshi
What? You're a piece of shit
samurai of the shit brigade?
[02:29] Todo
A human-shaped turd like you has
no right to denigrate a samurai!
[02:35] Ichibanhoshi
What do you think you're—
[02:37] Todo
Looks like the man-turd
is spewing maggots now.
[02:39] Sakuya
Why did you bring us here?
[02:42] Akira
Let's make one thing clear.
[02:44] Akira
We were supposed to be beheaded.
[02:47] Akira
Are you going to kill us?
[02:49] Todo
On August 18th, the day
the government changed,
[02:53] Todo
someone assassinated Kondou Isami and
the other commanders of the Shinsengumi.
[03:00] (Flashback) Todo
Commander...
[03:01] (Flashback) Todo
Hijikata-san... Guys...
[03:08] Todo
You were condemned to die today.
[03:12] Todo
You'll die and be reborn as
leaders of the Shinsengumi.
[03:16] Suzuran
What, like shadow leaders?
[03:19] Sogen
Since they've already died,
we'll be more like substitutes.
[03:24] Todo
If you become their substitutes and
the Shinsengumi continues to exist,
[03:29] Todo
your executions will be called off.
[03:31] Todo
If you refuse, now that you know
our secret, you can't be allowed to live.
[03:36] Sakuya
If we refuse, we'll be executed immediately.
[03:39] Akira
That's why you chose criminals.
[03:41] Bo
Talk about a crazy plan.
[03:42] Gyataro
Out of the frying pan, into the fire.
[03:45] Todo
Kondou Isami, Serizawa Kamo,
Sannan Keisuke, Saitou Hajime,
[03:49] Todo
Harada Sanosuke, Okita Souji,
Nagakura Shinpachi, and Hijikata Toshizou.
[03:54] Todo
Choose now.
[03:56] Todo
Die here, or become their substitutes.
[03:59] Sakuya
What does the Shinsengumi do?
[04:02] Todo
Receive orders from Matsudaira Katamori,
and maintain peace and order in the capital.
[04:06] Sakuya
Do you kill people?
[04:07] Todo
Yes.
[04:08] Sakuya
Then I accept.
[04:12] Todo
Hijikata Toshizou, welcome.
[04:14] Ichibanboshi
That's all it takes for you
to join the Shinsengumi?
[04:17] Sakuya
Killing people is the only
thing I know how to do.
[04:21] Sakuya
As long as I'm getting paid to kill people,
[04:23] Sakuya
then it makes no difference whether it's
for the Shinsengumi or as a hitman.
SIGN The Hitman
SIGN Sakuya
[04:29] Sakuya
Until now, I've followed
the rules of hired killers.
[04:33] Sakuya
What should I follow in the Shinsengumi?
[04:35] Todo
Me. In the Shinsengumi,
Todo Heisuke is the law.
[04:39] Sakuya
Understood.
[04:40] Ichibanboshi
Hah! You're already sucking up to him?
[04:42] Bo
Wanna eat lotsa yum-yums!
[04:45] Todo
Naturally, we'll serve you
all the rice you can eat.
[04:48] Todo
We'll even provide drinks and sides to go with.
[04:50] Bo
Join the Shinsengumi.
[04:52] Todo

[04:54] Bo
I'mma work real hard and eat lotsa yum-yums!
SIGN The Glutton

[05:01] Gyataro
I don't have any reason to say no, either.
[05:05] Gyataro
The great Gyataro will grace your
Shinsengumi with his presence.
[05:08] Kondou
Nagakura Shinpachi, welcome.
[05:11] Gyataro
There's no freaking way I'm dying here.
[05:14] Gyataro
I haven't had my fill of liquor,
women, or gambling yet.
SIGN The Crime Collector
SIGN Gyataro
[05:21] Ugo
Foolish Shinsengumi!

[05:29] Sakuya
Number 808.
[05:34] Bo
No...
[05:36] Sakuya
Did I do something wrong?
[05:38] Todo
No, that was the right call.
[05:40] Todo
I'll write in the record that
Serizawa Kamo died a violent death.
[05:42] Ichibanboshi
Damn samurai don't care about human lives.
[05:48] Gyataro
This place is crazier than prison.
[05:50] Sogen
I have an unrelated question.
[05:53] Sogen
May I have this body?
[05:58] Todo
Do as you please.
[05:59] Sogen
Then I shall join the Shinsengumi, too.
[06:02] Todo
Sannan Keisuke, welcome.
[06:06] Sogen
I doubt I'll lack for injured patients
to treat or dead bodies to dissect here.
SIGN The Psycho Doctor
SIGN Sogen
[06:13] Suzuran
I guess I'll join the Shinsengumi, too.
[06:16] Todo
Saito Hajime, welcome.
[06:19] Suzuran
If you're going to producing
that many corpses,
[06:21] Suzuran
you'll need someone to pray
for their restless souls.
SIGN The Sinful Monk
SIGN Suzuran
[06:27] Akira
Let me confirm one thing.
[06:29] Akira
Is it really acceptable for a woman
like me to take Okita Soji's place?
[06:34] Ichibanboshi
You're a woman?
[06:35] Todo
The Shinsengumi is a total meritocracy.
[06:38] Todo
You're the only one who cares
if you're a woman or not.
[06:43] Akira
Got it. I'll join, too.
[06:46] Todo
Okita Soji, welcome.
[06:49] Akira
I disguise myself in order
to test my strength.
[06:53] Akira
I won't be outdone by any man,
whether it's swordsmanship or academics.
SIGN The Cross-Dressing Woman
SIGN Akira
[06:58] Todo
I heard from the prison guards that
you're an instructor in swordsmanship.
[07:02] Akira
Indeed I am.
[07:03] Todo
I'd like you to train the other substitutes.
[07:05] Akira
Understood.
[07:08] Todo
That just leaves you.
[07:12] Todo
Choose.
[07:14] Todo
Die here, or change the times with us.
[07:19] Ichibanboshi
I'm not becoming no stinking samurai.
[07:23] Ichibanboshi
My family was killed by
samurai wearing funny masks!
[07:33] (Flashback) Masked Samurai
Give your lives...
[07:36] (Flashback) Masked Samurai
for the nation.
[07:41] (Flashback) Ichibanboshi'S Dad
Run, you two!

Ichibanboshi...
[07:57] (Flashback) Ichibanboshi'S Mom
Live.
[08:02] (Flashback) Ichibanboshi
Ma! Tsukito!
[08:08] Ichibanboshi
You're not changing the times.
[08:10] Ichibanboshi
You're just a murderer with
a sword hanging from his hip!
[08:12] Ichibanboshi
Don't act so self-important!
[08:15] Ichibanboshi
There's nothing I hate more than samurai!
[08:23] Todo
Is this the odd mask that
samurai was wearing?
[08:29] Ichibanboshi
What? Where did you get that?
[08:31] Todo
This mask was worn by the one who
killed the Shinsengumi's leaders.
[08:36] Todo
They belong to an organization
known as the Masked Demons.
[08:39] Todo
What a coincidence. We want
revenge on the same man.
[08:43] Todo
The Shinsengumi is searching for
the demon who wears this mask.
[08:46] Todo
Would you like to join the search?
[08:48] Ichibanboshi
Yeah.
[08:49] Todo
The Shinsengumi will exterminate
the Masked Demons and get revenge.
[08:54] Todo
Would you like to get revenge, too?
[08:56] Ichibanboshi
Of course. I swear I'll avenge my family.
[09:01] Todo
Good.
[09:04] Todo
This is Nagasone Okisato Nyudo Kotetsu.
[09:07] Todo
It was the late Commander
Kondou Isami's beloved sword.
[09:10] Todo
Will you take up this sword
and become Kondou Isami?
[09:26] Ichibanboshi
If it'll help me avenge my family,
[09:28] Ichibanboshi
I'll do anything.
[09:31] Ichibanboshi
I'll become a damn samurai.
[09:34] Ichibanboshi
I will be Kondou Isami!

[11:17] Katamori
How are the substitutes, Todo?
[11:20] Todo
They joined the force today.
[11:22] Katamori
Public order in Kyoto worsens day by day.
[11:25] Katamori
To prevent the lawless ronin from
becoming even more impudent,
[11:28] Katamori
the Shinsengumi cannot be disbanded now.
[11:31] Katamori
It won't be easy, but I'm asking
you to look after the criminals.
[11:35] Todo
Yes, sir. I shall be strict in my guidance.
[11:42] Ichibanboshi
This is why things never change.
[11:46] Sakuya
Don't play with swords, fool.
[11:48] Ichibanboshi
Oh, shut up.
[11:50] Ichibanboshi
Huh? Where'd shorty go?
[11:53] Suzuran
Todo-chan said he was
off to visit Katamori.
[11:56] Ichibanboshi
Who's that?
[11:57] Sogen
The Kyoto Military Commissioner
from the Aizu Domain.
[12:00] Sakuya
He's our master.
[12:02] Sakuya
Don't forget that, fool.
[12:03] Ichibanboshi
Why do you have to keep calling me a fool?
[12:07] Akira
Enough.
[12:07] Ichibanboshi
Huh?
[12:09] Akira
Practice begins now.
[12:12] Akizuki
Katamori, there's no need to rely
on the leaderless Shinsengumi.

Akizuki Teijiro
[12:17] Akizuki
The shogunate has the Mimawarigumi—
[12:19] Katamori
Akizuki, the Mimawarigumi is currently
recruiting immediate followers of the shogun.
[12:23] Katamori
We've no choice but to let the
Shinsengumi handle things right now.
[12:28] Katamori
I hate to say it, but that's the current
state of the declining shogunate.
[12:32] Katamori
Todo, I don't expect
much from the criminals.
[12:36] Katamori
They just need to maintain enough
influence to scare the forces
[12:38] Katamori
attempting to overthrow the shogunate.
[12:40] Todo
You are too kind.
[12:43] Todo
I swear the Shinsengumi will be restored
and protect public order in Kyoto.
[12:49] Akira
Who among you has studied swordsmanship?
[12:52] Ichibanboshi
Not me.
[12:55] Gyataro
I use this thing.
[12:57] Bo
This for me.
[12:59] Suzuran
Monks don't kill.
[13:01] Sogen
Gunpowder is more effective.
[13:05] Akira
I'm worried about our future.
[13:08] Akira
Composed of members
from various social classes,
[13:11] Akira

word "sincerity" on its flag

[13:12] Akira
and follows the way of the samurai.
[13:15] Akira
We can't neglect our sword skills.
[13:18] Akira
We'll begin training in pairs.
[13:20] Akira
Kondou.
[13:22] Akira
Commander Kondou.
[13:25] Ichibanboshi
Oh, you mean me.
[13:26] Ichibanboshi
All right. Let's do this.
[13:30] Akira
No need to hold back.
[13:32] Akira
Come and get me.
[13:37] Ichibanboshi
I won't be using this thing.
[13:39] Akira
You can't practice without it.
[13:42] Ichibanboshi
I just need to win, right?
[13:47] Katamori
I investigated this mask.
[13:49] Katamori
It resembles the ones they use in noh plays.
[13:52] Todo
Noh plays?
[13:53] Akizuki
If it's a rare article, then we'll
find them quickly.
[13:57] Katamori
We'll continue our investigation as well.
[13:59] Todo
Thank you. I appreciate it.
[14:02] Katamori
Now then, Todo.
[14:03] Katamori
I heard there are ronin wandering
around Shimabara and Gion.
[14:08] Todo
We'll take of it immediately.
[14:12] Akira
Pick up your wooden sword!
[14:14] Ichibanboshi
I'll fight my way!
[14:16] Suzuran
I'm surprised he can fight like that.
[14:19] Gyataro
I'm actually impressed.
[14:20] Sogen
Why was he chosen to be Commander Kondou?
[14:23] Bo
Huh?
[14:23] Sakuya
Dumboshi.
[14:30] Todo
Stop!
[14:41] Todo
You fool!
[14:45] Ichibanboshi
What was that for?
[14:46] Todo
Is your head full of
bean paste, you rotten bun?
[14:50] Todo
The sword is a samurai's soul.
[14:52] Todo
Who throws one on the ground?
[14:55] Ichibanboshi
I don't like swords.
[14:57] Sakuya
You let the shithead get ahead of himself.
[14:59] Ichibanboshi
What?
[14:59] Sakuya
You shouldn't have held back against him.
[15:02] Akira
But...
[15:05] Todo
We won't be fighting opponents
who can be defeated with kicks.
[15:09] Todo
Are you even trying to avenge your family?
[15:11] Ichibanboshi
Fine, fine. I'll learn
your stupid swordsmanship
[15:14] Ichibanboshi
and become the best of this
bunch before you know it.
[15:18] Todo
Get ready, everyone.
[15:19] Todo
It's your first job.
[15:34] Todo
We're heading out to patrol the city
and take care of some business.
[15:37] Ichibanboshi
All right. Let's blitz 'em!
[15:40] Sakuya
Blitz?
[15:41] Bo
Blitz!
[15:42] Gyataro
Does blitzing require a target?
[15:46] Todo
Of course.
[15:47] Suzuran
Akira-chan, have you
experienced a blitz before?
[15:49] Akira
No, I've never blitzed anything.
[15:52] Sogen
Blitz...
[15:53] Sogen
Is that perhaps a German word?
[15:55] Todo
Who cares? We've got a job to do!
[15:58] Todo
We'll split into three groups focused around
those of you with combat experience.
[16:02] Todo
Gyataro, Bo and I will head to Gion.
[16:05] Both
Understood.
[16:06] Todo
Akira, Sogen, and Suzuran
will go to Karasuma.
[16:09] All
Understood.
[16:09] Todo
That leaves Ichibanboshi and Sakuya to—
[16:11] Ichibanboshi
Hey, why am I going with him?
[16:11] Sakuya
Wait, why am I going with him?
[16:14] Todo
Sakuya, you're strong.
[16:16] Todo
Even with a puppy running
circles around you barking,
[16:20] Todo
you'll manage just fine by yourself.
[16:21] Ichibanboshi
Who are you calling a puppy?
[16:23] Todo
You, you mangy dog!
[16:24] Ichibanboshi
Arf!
[16:26] Todo
Ichibanboshi isn't the only one.
[16:28] Todo
Your sword skills are underdeveloped.
[16:30] Todo
Avoid combat as much as possible. Got it?
[16:33] All
Understood.
[16:38] Ronin D
You scoundrel!
[16:42] Rashomaru
So weak.
[16:43] Rashomaru
You're a weak one, aren't you?
Shall I give you this sword?
[16:48] Rashomaru
Use this sword for the nation.
[17:00] Bo
Huh?
SIGN Tempura
[17:09] Todo
Idiot!
[17:10] Shopkeeper
Huh?

That's not something a samurai should do.
[17:13] Bo
Oh...
[17:16] Todo
Forgive me.
[17:17] Shopkeeper
It's fine.
[17:20] Gyataro
You got in trouble.
[17:22] Bo
Aw...
[17:22] Todo
Gyataro, we're being paid by the shogunate.
[17:26] Todo
You don't need to do that.
[17:28] Gyataro
Do what?
[17:31] Todo
Put it back. You're not a criminal anymore.
[17:38] Gyataro
Hey, isn't this your wallet?
[17:41] Townsfolk Man
Oh, thanks.
[17:48] Suzuran
You were awesome, Akira-chan.
[17:51] Suzuran
If I'm going to die anyway, I'd like
to be killed by a beauty like you.
[17:56] Akira
I thought you were a former monk.
[17:58] Akira
Should you be hitting on women?
[18:00] Suzuran
"I saw a monk buy a hairpin for a girl."
[18:06] Suzuran
It's like the song.
[18:09] Akira
Good grief.
[18:12] Sogen
Look over there.
[18:15] Akira
Todo.
[18:16] Todo
Someone was testing a new sword.
[18:17] Gyataro
The wound's not deep, but the blood...
[18:21] Oito
Pops...
[18:23] Suzuran
Now this is an odd wound.
[18:26] Shigekichi
I'm not gonna make it.
[18:28] Sogen
I'll treat you.
[18:30] Sogen
You have a 93.5% chance of surviving.
[18:34] Sogen
Or would you rather be dissected?
[18:43] Suzuran
Don't worry. If you die,
we've got a monk right here.
[18:48] Todo
You two handle this.
[18:50] Todo
We're going after the lawless ronin.
[18:51] Both
Got it.
[18:52] Ichibanboshi
I'll surpass your sword skills before
you know it and become number one.
[18:57] Sakuya
You're already number one
when it comes to stupidity.
[18:59] Ichibanboshi
Why, you...
[19:00] Townsfolk Man
Please help!
[19:07] Sakuya
That sword...
[19:08] Ichibanboshi
It was me. I found them first.
[19:11] Sakuya
Hey.
[19:12] Ronin D
Give your life for the nation.
[19:16] Ichibanboshi
Blitzed ya!
[19:24] Ichibanboshi
Found you, you masked bastard.
[19:30] Ichibanboshi
Ow!
[19:31] Ichibanboshi
Sakuya, don't get in my way.
[19:34] Sakuya
Silence.
[19:34] Ichibanboshi
Huh?
[19:39] Sakuya
Number 809.
[19:57] Ichibanboshi
Damn it.
[19:58] Sakuya
What kind of moron suddenly
charges at the enemy?
[20:00] Ichibanboshi
I couldn't help it. My body moved on its own.
[20:04] Sakuya
You must learn your
opponents' abilities first.
[20:06] Sakuya
Draw your sword after.
[20:08] Ichibanboshi
Someone could've been killed if we waited.
[20:11] Ichibanboshi
What are you even wearing that sword for?
[20:14] Sakuya
To kill people.
[20:16] Ichibanboshi
Well, not me.
[20:17] Ichibanboshi
I wear one to protect people.
[20:20] Ichibanboshi
Hold up!
[20:20] Sakuya
Hey!
[20:21] Sakuya
We should follow orders and return to—
[20:23] Sakuya
Damn it, Dumboshi.
[20:28] Sakuya
Todo.
[20:29] Todo
Sakuya, what is it?
[20:32] Sakuya
A lawless samurai showed up in Shimabara.
[20:34] Sakuya
He was wearing one of those
masks and wielding an odd sword.
[20:37] Akira
Where's Ichibanboshi?
[20:38] Sakuya
He ignored orders and followed him alone.
[20:41] Todo
That absolute idiot!
[20:43] Todo
That dung beetle can't even
do anything on his own!
[20:49] Ichibanboshi
You're not getting away from me.
[20:52] Townsfolk Man
Help!
[20:54] Ichibanboshi
Don't.

I serve the Kyoto Military Commissioner

[22:01] Ichibanboshi
I mean, I'm a newbie who just became him.

Oh, yeah. It started glowing,
and I felt power welling up inside me.
[02:13] Todo
Could it be? But that's not...
[02:15] Suzuran
Todo-chan, what's the matter?
[02:17] Todo
It's possible the real Commander
Kondo Isami granted you his strength.
[02:24] Todo
It happened on August 18th,
the day the government changed.
SIGN Imperial Palace Kenrei Gate

[02:46] (Flashback) Tsuchimikado
I have a request for you.
[02:52] (Flashback) Todo

[02:58] (Flashback) Tsuchimikado
How unfortunate.
[02:59] (Flashback) Tsuchimikado
Despite embodying "sincerity,"
you've misjudged the situation.
[03:04] (Flashback) Tsuchimikado
Perhaps this was written in the stars.
[03:08] (Flashback) Tsuchimikado
Now give your life for the nation!
[03:14] (Flashback) Todo
We've already given our lives to Japan!
[03:29] Sakuya
Does Hijikata Toshizo's soul
reside within this as well?
[03:32] Todo
I don't know.
[03:34] Todo
Perhaps it's just what I'm hoping
for as the sole survivor.
[03:39] Ichibanboshi
The guy who killed the real Kondo
is the guy who wronged me, right?
[03:42] Todo
That's right. He's the leader

Yes, sir. As you already know,
they are the substitutes.
[04:38] Tsuchimikado
That Kondo Isami doesn't seem
like much of a strategist.
[04:42] Sakuya
You can read, can't you?
[04:43] Todo
He's a bit of an idiot. I've been
having some trouble with him.
[04:44] Ichibanboshi
Shut up. I can read "Shinsengumi," at least.
[04:46] Tsuchimikado
I'm not concerned.
[04:48] Sakuya
I'm surprised.
[04:49] Tsuchimikado
He's someone who attracts
people to him and unites them.
[04:49] Ichibanboshi
Do you have to insult
me at every opportunity?
[04:52] Sakuya
Stop shouting, Dumboshi.
[04:52] Tsuchimikado
He's a lot like Kondo Isami.
[04:53] Ichibanboshi
Eh?
[04:55] Todo
You must be joking.
[04:57] Tsuchimikado
Straightforward people like him
are the most terrifying of all.
[05:01] Ichibanboshi
What should we do with this?
[05:04] Suzuran
Hang it up at the base?
[05:05] Gyataro
Shouldn't we give it back?
[05:07] Tsuchimikado
Hijikata Toshizo's substitute
seems to have noticed us.
[05:08] Bo
I could write that.
[05:10] Sogen
Then let's return this one and
have Bo-dono write us a new one.
[05:13] Todo
How dare he look at you like that.
[05:16] Todo
I'll be sure to give him an earful later.
[05:19] Tsuchimikado
It's fine.

the way that man treats you?
[05:38] (Flashback) Sakuya Mom
Sakuya, don't call him "that man."

He's your father.

No careless mistakes.
[06:12] Todo

[06:32] Shozan
So this is my escort?
[06:34] Shozan
They're a sorry-looking bunch, aren't they?
[06:38] Todo
They're an inexperienced lot. Forgive them.
[06:42] Katamori
I believe Shozan-sensei knows a
bit about the art of war as well.
[06:45] Shozan
Not just a bit. No one's
more knowledgeable than I.
[06:49] Katamori
Then I hope you'll teach them the basics.
[06:51] Shozan
Katamori, I requested an escort to
the naval training center, not students.
[07:00] Shozan
We've met before, haven't we?
[07:04] Todo
Perhaps you've mistaken him for someone else?
[07:06] Shozan
Don't underestimate my memory.
[07:08] Shozan
He must be the same man.
[07:11] Sakuya
I am Shinsengumi Vice-Commander
Hijikata Toshizo.
[07:16] Katamori
Shozan-sensei has a wide circle of friends.
[07:19] Shozan
I'm the pearl of the Matsushiro Domain.
Everyone wants to meet me.
[07:25] Shozan
No matter. Let us depart.
[07:27] Shozan
Lead my horse!
[07:36] Gyotaro
Sensei, those things you're
wearing are cool as hell.
[07:39] Bo
Cool as hell.
[07:40] Shozan
Aren't they?
[07:42] Shozan
They're called sunglasses.
[07:44] Shozan
They protect my eyes from the sunlight.
[07:46] Shozan
I can even have staring
contests with the sun.
[07:48] Both
Wow!
[07:50] Shozan
I invented them.
[07:53] Gyataro
You're an inventor, too?
[07:55] Bo
Wowee.
[07:56] Shozan
You're impressed, are you? Keep it up.
[07:56] Suzuran
He's a fun man.
[07:58] Shozan
You could compliment me for
three days and three nights,
[07:58] Sogen
Making glasses using colored glass
is certainly a brilliant idea.
[07:59] Shozan
and it still wouldn't be enough for me.
[08:02] Shozan
Hey, tattooed man.
[08:04] Gyataro
Huh?
[08:04] Shozan
You can have these.
[08:07] Gyataro
You sure?
[08:11] Ichibanboshi
I want them! Gimme!
[08:13] Gyataro
He gave them to me.
[08:15] Ichibanboshi
That's not fair! I saw them first!
[08:18] Ichibanboshi
Give me half!
[08:19] Gyataro
What even is half of a pair of glasses?
[08:21] Todo
Idiots, we're on an escort mission!
[08:25] Both
Yes, sir...

[09:31] Sogen
Suzuran-dono!
[09:36] Suzuran
Sogen-chan, are you sure that was
the right amount of gunpowder?
[09:38] Sogen
Perhaps I used too much.
This one should be fine.

Whoa, whoa, whoa!
[09:56] Sakuya
You're in the way, Dumboshi.
[09:57] Ichibanboshi
It's your fault for standing there.
[10:00] Sakuya
You're the one who entered my range.
[10:00] Shozan
Katamori, these men aren't even ready
to learn the basics of warfare.
[10:01] Sogen
You did it again, huh?
[10:01] Ichibanboshi
Huh? You're the one who got in my way.
[10:04] Bo
Best buds.
[10:04] Sakuya
Shut up, Dumboshi.
[10:05] Ichibanboshi
Huh?
[10:07] Shozan
Good grief.
[10:08] Shozan
Individually, you're skilled, but you're
completely out of sync with each other.
[10:13] Todo
I have no excuse.
[10:15] Ichibanboshi
Seriously? Who does he
think just saved his ass?
[10:18] Shozan

[10:19] Ichibanboshi
Y-Yeah?

Uh, what sign?
[10:25] Gyataro
You're issuing orders
when you don't even know?
[10:27] Shozan
We don't have time to properly
dispose of their bodies.
[10:31] Shozan
Unless we leave a sign
explaining why we killed them,
[10:34] Shozan
people will think the Shinsengumi
are a group of murderers.
[10:38] Ichibanboshi
Oh, right.

Force rival domains to form allegiances
[14:20] Shozan
and integrate the shogunate
and imperial court.
[14:24] Ichibanboshi
That's too complicated for me to understand.
[14:27] Shozan
It's simple. Japan must be united as one.
[14:33] Ichibanboshi
A united Japan...
[14:43] Suzuran
Akira-chan, you look down.
[14:46] Akira
I know. I've devoted my life to the blade,

but those cannons made me realize
time is marching forward.

You gonna drop your sword for a gun?
[14:59] Bo
Maybe it's the age of brushes.
[15:02] Akira
I'll think about it.
[15:04] Shozan
Without a doubt, cannons are
stronger than swords.
[15:07] Shozan
But what's more important than raw strength
is how you use that strength.
[15:12] Akira
You're absolutely correct.
[15:14] Shozan
What about you, surly?
Will you abandon the sword?
[15:17] Sakuya
The only thing I can do is cut people down,
so I won't be abandoning the blade.
[15:21] Sakuya
All I need is a reason to kill.
[15:25] Shozan
You were born to kill
and have no other goals.
[15:29] Shozan
It's like you're a sword.

Will you abandon the sword?
[15:35] Ichibanboshi
I hate swords, but I won't give mine up.
[15:39] Ichibanboshi
I need it to get stronger.
[15:40] Shozan
Oh? What will you do once you're stronger?
[15:43] Ichibanboshi
Avenge my family.
[15:44] Shozan
What about after that?
[15:47] Ichibanboshi
After that? After that, I'll...
[15:51] Ichibanboshi
I'll change the world.
[15:53] Ichibanboshi
I'll change this shitty world someone made.

You're an unusual man.

Normally people try to stay in their lane.

But you're saying you'll

[16:17] Shozan
Will you become a revolutionary,
or just another nuisance?

He's already a nuisance.

There's someone I want you to meet.
[16:28] Shozan
His name is Sakamoto Ryoma.

fixed people, not swords.

Don't blame yourself. You were a child.
[19:05] Ichibanboshi
I'll become stronger.
[19:10] Ichibanboshi
I'll become the strongest
member of the Shinsengumi.
[19:15] Akira
Sounds promising.
[19:46] Bo
Yummy...
[19:51] Ichibanboshi
Ow! Huh?
[19:55] Ichibanboshi
Sakuya?
[20:07] Kawakami
Sakuya, why haven't you killed Sakuma Shozan?
[20:11] Kawakami
Why do you defy your orders?
[20:14] Sakuya
I was betrayed by my colleagues
who failed to kill Shozan
[20:18] Sakuya
and was sold off as a criminal.
[20:21] Kawakami
Sakuya, return to the fold.
Follow the rules of the hired killers.
[20:25] Sakuya
I died once and was reborn
as Hijikata Toshizo.
[20:30] Sakuya
I follow the rules of the Shinsengumi now.
[20:32] Kawakmi
We do not forgive traitors.
[20:35] Sakuya
I won't allow you to kill Sakuma Shozan.
[20:44] Kawakami
Number 1,728.
[20:46] Sakuya
Number 824.
[20:49] Sakuya
Kawakami Gensai, do you see the world
differently after killing over a thousand men?
[20:53] Kawakami
You don't need to know that.
[20:56] Kawakami
After all, you'll be dead before
this sand finishes falling.
[21:10] Kawakami
Strong as ever, Sakuya.
[21:12] Sakuya
"Don't hesitate." It's what you taught me.
[21:18] Kawakami
Now die.
[21:21] Sakuya
That sword again?
[21:32] Sakuya
What?
[21:39] Sakuya
You're a monster. But I simply
need to remove your entire arm.
[21:42] Ichibanboshi
Sakuya!
[21:45] Ichibanboshi
Hey, who's that guy?
[21:48] Sakuya
Dumboshi, stay back.
[21:50] Ichibanboshi
I'm not the one who wanted to come here.
[21:52] Ichibanboshi
It was Kotetsu.
[21:55] Kawakami
One of your allies?
[21:58] Sakuya
No, just an interruption.
[21:59] Kawakami
Sakuya, you cannot escape.
[22:02] Kawakami
Not from us, or from the
guilt of killing your father.
[22:09] Ichibanboshi
What? You killed your dad?

What? You killed your dad?
[00:39] Kawakami
I'll start by eliminating this pest.
[00:44] Ichibanboshi
Whoa!
[00:52] Kawakami
That sword is too good for
one as inexperienced as you.
[00:55] Kawakami
You can lament your mistake
in the underworld.
[00:58] Sakuya
Kawakami!
[01:02] Kawakami
Sakuya, you are one who
lives in the darkness.
[01:08] Kawakami
The light will never be yours.
[01:21] Sakuya
That took as long as I expected.
[01:25] Ichibanboshi
Hey, hold on a second.
[01:27] Sakuya
No need to thank me.
[01:28] Ichibanboshi
Is what he said earlier true?
[01:32] Sakuya
I've counted all the people
I've killed until now.
[01:37] Sakuya
And the first one was my father.

Put your hips into it!
[03:22] Akira

Oh, shut up!
[03:28] Gyataro
Watch it!
SIGN Sincerity
[03:32] Todo
Katamori, thank you for coming.
[03:36] Katamori
I had some business in the area.
[03:39] Todo
I've heard those who wish to overthrow
the shogunate are wandering about.
[03:43] Todo
Please be careful.
[03:44] Katamori
Do you recognize the name Katsura Kogoro?
[03:48] Todo
He's from the Choshu Domain, isn't he?
[03:50] Katamori
Indeed. The source is unreliable, but I've
heard Katsura is up to no good.
[03:56] Todo
The Shinsengumi shall
look into it immediately.
[04:00] Katamori
They seem like a lively bunch.
[04:02] Todo
What? You saw the substitutes?
[04:05] Katamori
Just now, on my way here.
[04:07] Katamori
They're rather interesting, aren't they?
[04:09] Todo
Thank you, sir.
[04:11] Suzuran
Hi-yah! Hi-yah!
[04:14] Sogen
The aerodynamics of a wooden sword require
different calculations from a real sword.
[04:21] Gyataro
Hey, Sogen.
[04:23] Gyataro
Could you attach my sword to the end of
this thing and turn it into a bayonet?
[04:27] Sogen
That would be a simple modification to make.
[04:30] Bo
Wow!
[04:32] Gyataro
For real? Could you take care
of that real quick later?
[04:35] Suzuran
Hi-yah! Hi-yah! Hi-yah!
[04:41] Akira
Katsu!
[04:43] Akira
This always happens the
second I stop watching.
[04:56] Todo
The Shinsengumi is going
after Katsura Kogoro.
[04:59] Todo
While out on patrol, we'll investigate the
area around the Choshu Domain's mansion.
[05:04] Todo
Sakuya and Ichibanboshi will—
[05:06] Ichibanboshi
Hold on.
[05:07] Todo
What is it?
[05:08] Ichibanboshi
I'm not doing anything with this guy.
[05:10] Todo
You're still saying that?
[05:12] Todo
A samurai always obeys the orders of
his superior. "No" is not an option.
[05:16] Ichibanboshi
Well, I can't help what I don't like.
[05:18] Ichibanboshi
I don't trust this guy.
SIGN Sincerity
[05:19] Todo
If you don't stop speaking nonsense,
I'll cut off your head.
[05:23] Ichibanboshi
Fine by me. Cut if off, then.
[05:27] Todo
More nonsense.
[05:28] Suzuran
What? We need a priest already?
[05:31] Sogen
Though I'm looking forward to dissecting
Ichibanboshi-dono's corpse,
[05:34] Sogen
dealing with the aftermath
will be mildly troublesome.
[05:37] Akira
Sogen's right.
[05:39] Akira
The other members of the Shinsengumi
already know Ichibanboshi.
[05:43] Akira
If you want to bring in a new Kondo Isami,
[05:46] Akira
you'll have to silence the
other members permanently.
[05:49] Bo
You mean kill them?
[05:51] Gyataro
Give me a break. Some of
them actually look up to us.
[05:56] Bo
Yeah.
[05:59] Todo
I'm giving you a different job.
[06:01] Ichibanboshi
Without Sakuya, right?
[06:03] Todo
That's right.
[06:04] Ichibanboshi
Then you got it.
[06:09] Todo
If anything happens, notify me immediately.

Yes, sir.
SIGN Yoshidaya
[06:25] (Flashback) Akira
Please don't.

Hey, Akira. How do I look?
[07:02] Ichibanboshi
Huh? What?
[07:05] Ichibanboshi
Akira, seriously?
[07:07] Akira
What? There's nothing unusual
about a young geisha.
[07:11] Ichibanboshi
You're pretty as hell.
[07:14] Ichibanboshi
You should dress like that all the time.
[07:16] Akira
This is just the disguise I'm wearing
to infiltrate enemy territory.
[07:20] Ichibanboshi
Aw, man. What a waste.
[07:24] Akira
If you look at me like that on
a regular basis, I'll kill you.
[07:27] Ichibanboshi
Gotcha.
[07:32] Todo
You check out that area.
[07:34] Soldier A
Yes, sir.
[07:36] Todo
You go that way.
[07:38] Soldier B
Yes, sir.
[07:41] Todo
Law enforcement! Open up!
[07:42] Gyataro
Let's blitz 'em.
[07:45] Maid A
You're good at that.
[07:47] Ichibanboshi
I used to cook for my brother all the time.
[07:50] Ichibanboshi
Tsukito wouldn't eat them unless
I chopped them up real small.
[07:53] Servant B
Ichibanboshi!
[07:55] Ichibanboshi
Coming!
[07:57] Maid
Ichibanboshi!
[07:58] Ichibanboshi
On my way!
[08:00] Servant
Ichibanboshi!
[08:02] Ichibanboshi
Be right there!
[08:06] Ichibanboshi
This is tougher than sword practice.
[08:09] Akira
Where's Katsura Kogoro?
[08:11] Ichibanboshi
He's not here. Is he really coming?
[08:14] Akira
That's what we came here to find out.
[08:16] Akira
Have you gathered any information?
[08:18] Ichibanboshi
Yeah, actually...
[08:20] Ichibanboshi
One of the maid's dad hurt his arm,
[08:23] Ichibanboshi
so he's having his third son give him
a hand with his plastering business.
[08:25] Akira
Hold on.
[08:27] Akira
You don't even understand what
it means to gather information?
[08:30] Ichibanboshi
Don't underestimate me.
[08:32] Ichibanboshi
I've got some juicy information, too.
[08:34] Akira
Oh?
[08:35] Ichibanboshi
Tatsu the jester's wife left him after
he racked up a bunch of gambling debt.
[08:38] Ichibanboshi
Just the other day, he came
crying to his landlord and—
[08:41] Akira
You should be gathering information
about the Choshu Domain!
[08:43] Ichibanboshi
Hey, keep your voice down.
[08:47] Todo
Let me know if you notice
anything suspicious.
[08:49] Merchant
Yes, sir. Keep up the good work.
[08:54] Todo
Where are the others?
[08:56] Sakuya
They left.
[08:57] Todo
To go where?
[08:58] Sakuya
Wherever they pleased.
[09:00] Todo
They did what? Why didn't you stop them?
[09:03] Bo
We'll get in trouble if we wander off.
[09:07] Gyataro
Then you can head back by yourself.
[09:20] Urchin A
Hey, hey, hey.
[09:21] Gyataro
Why, you little...
[09:28] Gyataro
It's good to see you again.
[09:30] Urchin A
It's been forever.
[09:32] Urchin A
What have you been up to, brother?
[09:34] Gyataro
I've been through a lot. These days
I'm a samurai for the Shinsengumi.
[09:39] Urchin A
Seriously? You're a samurai?
[09:44] Sogen
Operating as a group is ineffective
for gathering information.
[09:48] Suzuran
You're not wrong.
[09:50] Sogen
Suzuran-dono, why are you following me?
[09:54] Suzuran
I wonder why. I'm just doing
whatever I feel like doing.
[09:58] Older Woman
My, what a handsome man.
[10:01] Suzuran
Miss, wanna grab a drink?
[10:03] Older Woman
Sounds good to me. I'd love to be treated.
[10:07] Older Woman
What?
[10:08] Sogen
Hair loss, splotchy skin, and nasal speech.
[10:11] Sogen
There's a 79.2% chance you have syphilis.
[10:15] Sogen
If you don't get it treated, you'll die.
[10:17] Old Woman
Where did that come from, you creep?
[10:21] Suzuran
You'd better see a doctor.
[10:24] Suzuran
Otherwise you'll need my services.
[10:27] Sogen
She might come back.
[10:29] Suzuran
Huh?
[10:31] Suzuran
Even though she just walked off
with a sour look on her face?
[10:35] Suzuran
Hey, you're right.
[10:37] Suzuran
Sogen-chan, how'd you know?
[10:41] Sogen
It's simple.
[10:43] Geisha A
During the daytime?
[10:45] Geisha B
Yeah.
[10:47] Fake Katsura
Who does that traitor think he is?
[10:50] Fake Katsura
I should be serving the emperor!
[10:56] Fake Katsura
Who's there?
[10:57] Fake Katsura
You were eavesdropping, weren't you?
[11:01] Fake Katsura
Are you spying on me, Katsura Kogoro?
[11:03] Soldier C
What's going on?
[11:04] Soldier D
It's a girl.
[11:07] Akira
I, um...
[11:10] Ikuchiyo
You're late. You need to do a better
job remembering where the room is.
[11:15] Ikuchiyo
Aren't I always telling you that?
[11:17] Akira
I'm terribly sorry.
[11:19] Fake Katsura
Ikuchiyo, is she with you?
[11:22] Ikuchiyo
Indeed she is, Katsura-han.
[11:24] Ikuchiyo
I've been looking after her
since she was an apprentice.
[11:27] Ikuchiyo
Her name is Ikumatsu. She's new.
[11:29] Ikuchiyo
Be kind to her.
[11:31] Fake Katsura
Fine. It's not as though
women can do anything, anyway.
[11:36] Ikuchiyo
Go on, Ikumatsu. Pour Katsura-han a drink.
[11:40] Akira
Yes, ma'am.
[11:42] Fake Katsura
Girl, you should be grateful for the
opportunity to pour drinks for me.
[11:50] Todo
They all lack self-awareness as samurai.
[11:53] Todo
I'll have to hammer it into them later.
[11:57] Todo
Hey, where are you going?
[11:59] Todo
I can't believe you're running
off on your own, too.
[12:04] Man
What's gotten into you?
[12:06] Todo
Hey, what are you doing?
[12:08] Sakuya
He was watching us from the shadows.
[12:10] Man
We just happened to make eye
contact! I wasn't doing anything!
[12:14] Sakuya
I'll tear off your fingernails.
[12:15] Man
What? What are you talking about?
[12:18] Man
You, say something!
[12:19] Todo
You're certain?
[12:21] Sakuya
Yes.
[12:22] Todo
Then tear them off.
[12:23] Man
What?! Ow!
[12:26] Todo
What will you do after you
tear off all his fingernails?
[12:28] Sakuya
Cut off his ears.
[12:29] Man
Okay, okay! I'm a spy!
[12:32] Sakuya
From where?
[12:33] Man
I was hired by the Choshu Domain.
[12:36] Todo
For what purpose?
[12:37] Man
I'm just a low-level grunt.
I don't know much.
[12:42] Man
I was told to spread rumors!
[12:44] Sakuya
Rumors?
[12:45] Man
That lately Katsura Kogoro's
been frequenting the Yoshidaya!
[12:49] Todo
Sakuya, leave that man.
[12:52] Todo
This must be the dubious
information Katamori mentioned.

here to achieve that goal.
[14:06] Soldier A
Prepare yourselves.

[14:11] Akira
I won't resist. Just don't harm the others.
[14:14] Fake Katsura
I knew it was you.

But there could be other supporters
of the shogunate here.

If we kill everyone, then none will escape.
[14:24] Soldier A
We'll start with you.

Sacrifices must be made for the noble

[14:34] Fake Katsura
You aren't samurai. You wouldn't understand.

You shitty samurai! Katsura Kogoro!

Who are you?

This is what I hate about you guys!
[14:48] Ichibanboshi

[14:49] Fake Katsura
Once you've taken down those two,
kill everyone in the shop.

What's happening?
[14:56] Soldier H
What's going on?
[15:01] Soldier G
There's nobody in the other rooms!

The place is empty!
[15:04] Fake Katsura
What?
[15:06] Akira
What's going on? Could it be?
[15:08] Ichibanboshi
I evacuated everyone earlier.
[15:11] Maid A
Ichibanboshi-chan told us to flee.
[15:14] Servant
We figured it must be pretty bad
if he was telling us to run.
[15:17] Maid B
He saved our lives.

I thought you were an idiot,
but I've changed my mind.
[15:24] Fake Katsura
You've screwed up our plans.
[15:25] Fake Katsura
I'll lose face if I don't at
least return with your heads.
[15:29] Akira
Ichibanboshi, where are
the swords I gave you?
[15:32] Ichibanboshi
Don't worry. They're hidden
inside an unused oven.
[15:36] Akira
You mean you didn't bring them with you?
[15:38] Ichibanboshi
Yeah.
[15:39] Akira
I was wrong to change my mind.

I'm here to help.

[15:48] Akira
What are you guys doing here?
[15:49] Gyataro

[15:56] Gyataro
Let's get this Katsura Kogoro guy.
[15:58] Bo
Yeah.
[16:02] Ikuchiyo
Those are your swords, aren't they?
[16:04] Fake Katsura
Ikuchiyo, are you working with them, too?
[16:08] Ikuchiyo
No, but I can't allow you
to kill innocent bystanders
[16:11] Ikuchiyo
for the sake of overthrowing the shogunate.
[16:16] Fake Katsura
Riff-raff like you wouldn't
understand our purpose.
[16:22] Fake Katsura
Die!
[16:27] Akira

[16:29] Akira
Now's our chance.
[16:30] Bo
Run for it.
[16:31] Soldier D
You're not getting away!
[16:37] Gyataro
You didn't use the blade?
[16:38] Ikuchiyo
I can't stand blood.
[16:40] Gyataro
You're a softie, huh?
[16:41] Ikuchiyo
I get that a lot.
[16:53] Suzuran
Did you know that sick lady
would give us information
[16:56] Suzuran
about this place if you treated her?
[16:58] Sogen
She didn't seem to have any money.
[17:01] Sogen
Since she came back anyway, she must've
had something else to offer.
[17:06] Suzuran
I see.
[17:08] Sogen
She probably realized we were members
of the Shinsengumi, and believed
[17:12] Sogen
she could pay for treatment using the
information she had about the Yoshidaya.
[17:17] Suzuran
You know everything.
You're a god, Sogen-chan.
[17:21] Sogen
Should a priest be saying that?
[17:24] Sogen
It's simple observation and conjecture.
[17:26] Soldier I
Bastards!
[17:28] Suzuran
This is my first time using this staff,
so there's no telling what will happen.
[17:34] Suzuran
But if it happens to kill you,
[17:35] Suzuran
I'll recite whatever prayers or
scriptures you want, so don't worry.
[17:52] Suzuran
Now that's an impressive trick.
[17:54] Sogen
A victory for science.

Crap.

I came running when we heard
Katsura Kogoro was here.
[18:23] Sogen
As did I.
[18:24] Todo
So you weren't just slacking off.
[18:27] Todo
Where's Katsura Kogoro?
[18:29] Gyataro
On the second floor.
[18:30] Gyataro
They should be finishing up soon.
[18:33] Todo
All right.

Is this sword...?

Yes. I turned the broken Kijinmaru
Kunishige into an electric trick weapon.
[18:46] Todo
How could you do that to
Saito Hajime-san's sword?
[18:56] Akira
You're no ordinary geisha, are you?
[18:58] Ikuchiyo
Oh, I'm exactly what I look like.
[19:02] Ikuchiyo
I'm just a simple geisha.
[19:04] Ikuchiyo
The rest is up to you.
Time for me to get out of here.
[19:08] Akira
What are you—
[19:10] Ikuchiyo
I'll be taking this as
a souvenir, Ikumatsu-san.
[19:21] Fake Katsura
Overlooking you was the first mistake I made.
[19:25] Fake Katsura
If I'd cut you down then,
this wouldn't have happened!
[19:33] Fake Katsura
Imagine a girl like you
swinging a sword around.
[19:35] Fake Katsura
Who do you think you are,
a traveling performer?
[19:38] Fake Katsura
You should be showing some
skin and dancing instead.
[19:43] Akira
I understand now.
[19:50] Akira
I survived to join the Shinsengumi so
I could cut down bastards like you.
[19:56] Akira
I'll show you which of us is stronger!
[20:03] Fake Katsura
Hah! I'll cut you down!
[20:16] Todo
Kiku-ichimonji is glowing.
[20:19] Todo
Is Okita-san helping her?
[20:21] Suzuran
Wow, isn't Katsura Kogoro
a big-name Choshu guy?
[20:25] Gyataro
Which makes this a huge achievement.
[20:28] Akira
This man isn't Katsura Kogoro.
[20:31] Akira
He's just a substitute
here to hunt down spies.
[20:34] Akira
The real Katsura is probably...

[20:38] Gatekeeper
What do you want, woman?
[20:40] Katsura
It's me.
[20:42] Gatekeeper
Ah, Katsura-san.
Another undercover investigation?
[20:46] Katsura
I couldn't sit by while someone was
using my name to commit evil acts.
[20:52] Todo
Once we're back at headquarters,
[20:54] Todo
I want everyone except Sakuya and Akira
to do a thousand practice swings.
[20:56] All
What?!
[20:57] Ichibanboshi
Why are we being punished?
[20:59] Todo
Breaking the rules of the
Shinsengumi is a serious offense.
[21:02] Todo
Given what you accomplished today, I'm
letting you off easy with a thousand swings.
[21:05] Ichibanboshi
But I didn't break any rules.
[21:07] Todo
You're doing it with them
because you need more practice.
[21:10] Ichibanboshi
What? What kind of reason is that?

Why are you doing this with us, Akira?
[21:25] Akira
This is just my normal training.
[21:28] Bo
Normal?
[21:29] Gyataro
You're one hard worker.
[21:31] Akira
Sakuya's surely off somewhere
training right now.

You're not getting away.
[03:01] Gyataro
Mikura and Arakida, you traitors!
[03:04] Mikura
Accept your fate!
[03:09] Ichibanboshi
Hey, are you guys okay?
[03:17] Akira
I didn't use the blade, although that
probably hurts more than dying.
[03:21] Bo
So strong!
[03:23] Gyataro
Thanks for the help.
[03:25] Arakida
Crap, it's Okita Soji.
[03:28] Matsui
Skilled Captain of the First Unit...
[03:32] Sakuya
Are you Choshu spies?
[03:35] Todo
Infiltrating the Shinsengumi so
you could kill us in our sleep
[03:38] Todo
is unbecoming for a samurai.
[03:39] Todo
Though I suppose your associates
can hardly be called samurai.
[03:44] Arakida
Hurry!
[03:47] Arakida
Let's go!
[03:48] Mikura
Those jerks...
[03:49] Suzuran
They're surprisingly disloyal
for loyalists, aren't they?
[03:54] Todo
Okita, Saito, and Sannan,
go after the spies who fled.
[03:57] All
Yes, sir.
[03:58] Todo
Kondo, Nagakura, and Harada,
clean up this place.
[04:02] All
Yes, sir.
[04:04] Todo
Hijikata, get this guy to talk.
[04:06] Todo
Get rough with him if you need to.
[04:08] Sakuya
Yes, sir.
[04:09] Sakuya
Mikura, you're going to tell me everything.
[04:12] Mikura
I'll never talk.
[04:14] Sakuya
Do you know how much pain you're
capable of withstanding?
[04:22] Suzuran
Aw, man. They got away.
[04:25] Sogen
This disturbance occurred the moment
the Shinsengumi welcomed new members.
[04:29] Sogen
The timing is too perfect.
[04:31] Suzuran
Sogen-chan, are you saying this was planned?
[04:34] Sogen
I can only say it's very likely
judging by the circumstances.

I'll be taking this as

[05:10] Akira
Ikuchiyo...
[05:25] Sakuya
Move.
[05:26] Ichibanboshi
What are you planning to do to him?
[05:28] Sakuya
Question him for information, so we can
maintain peace and order in the capital.
[05:31] Ichibanboshi
I know a lie when I hear one.
[05:34] Sakuya
That's the Shinsengumi's job.
[05:39] Mikura
Kill me, if that's what you're going to do.
[05:41] Mikura
The proud fighters of the Choshu Domain
will not succumb to any kind of tor—ow!
[05:45] Ichibanboshi
Quiet!
[05:46] Mikura
What?
[05:47] Ichibanboshi
Keep your mouth shut!
[05:48] Ichibanboshi
You're going to kill him, aren't you?
[05:50] Sakuya
I'm just going to inflict pain
on him until he confesses.
[05:54] Ichibanboshi
Using dirty methods like that makes you
no better than these lawless ronin.
[05:58] Mikura
How rude! We're not lawless ronin!
[06:01] Ichibanboshi
I told you to stay out of this!
[06:04] Ichibanboshi
I won't let you torture him.
[06:06] Ichibanboshi
Sakuya, I don't trust you.
[06:09] Sakuya
Because I used to be a hired killer?
[06:11] Mikura
A hired killer?
[06:12] Ichibanboshi
Because you're a piece of shit father-killer
who cuts people down indiscriminately!
[06:17] Mikura
Father-killer?
[06:19] Sakuya
Is that all you have to say?
[06:21] Mikura
W-Wait, I'll talk!
[06:24] Mikura
I'll tell you everything I know.
[06:28] Ichibanboshi
Huh?
[06:30] Katamori
Choshu spies, huh?
[06:32] Todo
Between this and the incident
at the Yoshidaya the other day,
[06:35] Todo
they must really hate the Shinsengumi.
[06:39] Akizuki
What about that sword?
[06:41] Todo
Yes, sir.
[06:43] Todo
The spies had these.
[06:48] Katamori
What's this?
[06:49] Akizuki
How strange.
[06:51] Todo
These mysterious swords, sharper
than the finest blades,
[06:55] Todo
are circulating among the ronin in the city.
[06:58] Katamori
Now that's a problem.
[07:01] Katamori
Where are the swords coming from?
[07:03] Todo
They said they got them from children.
[07:05] Katamori
Children?
[07:07] Todo
Allegedly, many of the anti-shogunate
ronin received their swords from orphans.
[07:11] Akizuki
Now this is an unexpected development
in the recent suspicious activity.
[07:15] Akizuki
But there are many orphans in the capital.
[07:19] Akizuki
It will be difficult to
investigate all of them.
[07:21] Todo
We needn't worry about that.
[07:22] Todo
Fortunately, one of the
Shinsengumi substitutes used to
[07:25] Todo
be the leader of an orphan gang.
[07:30] Todo
He's got quite a lot of influence with them.
[07:37] Urchin
Wow, rice balls!
[07:41] Urchin
It's the boss!
[07:42] Urchin
Gyata-nii's back!
[07:42] Gyataro
Quit your yapping. Don't worry.
There's plenty for everyone.
[07:44] Urchin
Gimme!
[07:45] Urchin
Me, too!
[07:46] Urchin
Me first!
[07:49] Bo
Get in line.
[07:53] Ichibanboshi
This is impressive. Are they
all your little brothers?
[07:57] Gyataro
I see some familiar faces,
[07:59] Gyataro
but it looks like they've gained
new faces since I was arrested.
[08:07] Ichibanboshi
Anyway, why would they use
kids to distribute swords?
[08:11] Gyataro
Because in this city, it's kids without
parents who take on dangerous jobs.
[08:17] Gyataro
Weren't you the same, Ichibanboshi?
[08:23] Ichibanboshi
Yeah.
[08:32] Ichibanboshi
I did anything to survive.
[08:35] Ichibanboshi
Like stealing, and all
kinds of dangerous stuff.
[08:44] Ichibanboshi
There's nothing I hate more
than people who turn kids
[08:46] Ichibanboshi
into their pawns by killing their parents.
[08:49] Bo
Yeah, same.
[08:52] Gyataro
Then let's catch those guys.
[08:55] Ichibanboshi
Yeah.
[09:14] Ikuchiyo
Ikumatsu-han, the shop is closed today.
[09:17] Akira
Ikuchiyo, who are you?
[09:20] Akira
You're not just a pervert
who enjoys cross-dressing.
[09:25] Ikuchiyo
That's rich, coming from
a cross-dressing samurai.
[09:29] Ikuchiyo
I'm the man you've been
looking for, Okita Soji.
[09:34] Akira
Katsura Kogoro of the Choshu Domain.
[09:37] Akira
I knew it was you. Now I finally
have some answers.
[09:42] Katsura
Hold your horses.
[09:44] Katsura
I know the Shinsengumi is trying to kill me.
[09:47] Katsura
But turning your blades
against me would be hasty.
[09:50] Akira
Save your breath. We were attacked
in our sleep by Choshu spies.
[09:54] Katsura
I'm sorry about that.
[09:55] Katsura
Those idiots from the Choshu Domain don't
understand the current situation,
[09:59] Katsura
and are pointlessly engaging
in subversive activity.
[10:01] Katsura
They're giving me a lot of trouble, too.
[10:04] Katsura
Ikumatsu—rather, Okita-han,
would you be willing to hear me out?
[10:16] Bo
Where's your brother?
[10:18] Gyataro
He should be here soon.
[10:24] Big Brother
Come on, don't cry.
[10:26] Big Brother
Blow your nose and wipe your tears.
[10:29] Big Brother
Jeez, you're hopeless.
[10:32] Ichibanboshi
Don't cry, Tsukito.
[10:35] (Flashback) Ichibanboshi
Jeez, you're a wimp.
[10:37] (Flashback) Ichibanboshi
I got your scarf back for you. Here.
[10:42] (Flashback) Tsukito
Thanks, Brother.
[10:46] (Flashback) Ichibanboshi
You need to get better at fighting, Tsukito.
[10:48] (Flashback) Tsukito
You're just too strong.
[10:50] (Flashback) Ichibanboshi
Yeah, 'cause I'm always number one.
[10:56] Big Brother
You're okay.
[10:58] Big Brother
Come on, let's go home.
[10:58] Ichibanboshi
Tsukito, someday I'll avenge you,
and build a memorial for you.
[11:01] Little Brother
Okay.
[11:03] Ichibanboshi
The best memorial there is.
[11:06] Gyataro
There he is.
[11:08] Gyataro
Hey, Tomekichi. Over here.
[11:11] Tomekichi
What? Gyata-nii?
[11:17] Gyataro
It's good to see you again.
[11:19] Tomekichi
Gyata-nii, did you break out of prison again?
[11:21] Gyataro
Something like that.
[11:23] Gyataro
For reasons, these days I'm Nagakura
Shinpachi of the Shinsengumi.
[11:28] Gyataro
I'm a samurai.
[11:30] Tomekichi
From gang boss to samurai?
You must be joking.
[11:35] Tomekichi
What can I do for you today?
[11:36] Gyataro
I'm here about those.
[11:38] Gyataro
Tomekichi, you're smuggling
some sketchy goods, aren't you?
[11:43] Tomekichi
Gyata-nii, these are...
[11:45] Gyataro
We're not looking to punish you kids.
[11:49] Gyataro
We're searching for the guys
distributing these swords.
[11:51] Gyataro
We'll settle this matter for you.
[11:54] Gyataro
Take us to them.
[11:59] Tomekichi
There's no beating you, Gyata-nii.
[12:01] Tomekichi
Follow me.
[12:07] Mikura
Mercy, please.
[12:10] Mikura
I've told you everything. It's true.
[12:26] Sakuya
The same blood flows in my veins, huh?
[12:31] Sakuya
It's not that I particularly hate you.
[12:33] Sakuya
I have to do this to maintain peace and order
[12:37] Sakuya
in the city, and protect those who
got the short end of the stick.
[12:41] Todo
What are you doing?
[12:42] Sakuya
Making him talk.
[12:44] Todo
You already got information out of him.
[12:45] Todo
There's no need to continue torturing him.
[12:47] Sakuya
The real Hijikata Toshizo wouldn't be
so lenient. He'd be even more thorough in—
[12:54] Todo
You're just an ignorant substitute.
Don't lecture me on the vice commander.
[12:59] Sakuya
Understood. I'll cease torturing him.
[13:02] Todo
Where are the others?
[13:03] Todo
I thought I told them to
gather around four o'clock.
[13:06] Sakuya
Well...
[13:07] Sakuya
The doctor and the monk were fiddling
with a sword in their room.
[13:11] Sakuya
They seemed to be modifying
the electric staff.
[13:14] Sakuya
Dumboshi and the others haven't returned
from going to see the orphans.
[13:18] Todo
And Akira? I suppose I don't
have to worry about her, though.
[13:24] Katsura
The men wearing strange masks are working
with the extremists from the Choshu Domain.
[13:29] Akira
The Masked Demons?
[13:31] Katsura
I want to stop the idiots
of the Choshu Domain.
[13:34] Katsura
So does the Shinsengumi.
Our interests are aligned.
[13:39] Katsura
Right?
[13:40] Akira
So what if they are?
[13:42] Katsura
Okita Soji, work with me.
[13:44] Katsura
I'd like to exchange information.
[13:46] Katsura
When you consider the security of
the capital and the future of Japan,
[13:50] Katsura
it's the logical choice
for all manner of reasons.
[13:57] Katsura
You don't need to give me your answer now.
[14:00] Katsura
Think about it for as long as you need to.
[14:03] Akira
Wait!
[14:05] Katsura
How unfortunate. That suits
you better than a sword.
[14:09] Akira
What does?
[14:13] Katsura
Okita Soji, we'll meet again.
You can give me your answer then.
[14:24] Ichibanboshi
So that's how they're handing out the swords.
[14:27] Gyataro
No wonder we couldn't track them down.
[14:36] Gyataro
Hey, look at that. They're finally
making an appearance.
[14:40] Bo
There are adults on the bridge.
[14:44] Ichibanboshi
Tomekichi's giving the swords to...
[14:48] Ichibanboshi
It's those two.
[14:51] Ichibanboshi
I knew I recognized them.
[14:55] Bo
It's the Choshu guys.

[18:58] Rashomaru
Hijikata Toshizo, are you also a
vagabond hurrying to his death?
[19:04] Sakuya
Number 851.
[19:12] Rashomaru
Hijikata, you're strong.
[19:15] Rashomaru
It seems you're not in a hurry to die.
[19:18] Rashomaru
But that strength of yours
won't take you anywhere.
[19:23] Rashomaru
A man who feels isolated within a group
[19:25] Rashomaru
is even more pathetic than an
ant separated from its colony.
[19:31] Sakuya
Bastard.
[19:34] Gyataro
Take this!
[19:38] Mask C
That's enough, Shinsengumi!
[19:39] Mask C
Don't move, or I'll take the kid's head off.
[19:42] Ichibanboshi
What?
[19:43] Gyataro
Tomekichi!
[19:44] Tamekichi
Sorry, guys.
[19:46] Mask C
Kids are useful for transporting
weapons and as hostages.
[19:51] Ichibanboshi
You piece of shit.
[19:53] Gyataro
Now that you've finished using him,
you're just gonna throw him away?
[19:57] Bo
You make me sick.
[20:17] Ichibanboshi
Tomekichi!
[20:23] Bo
The tables have turned!
[20:25] Gyataro
Give yourselves up!
[20:29] Gyataro
What's that?
[20:30] Ichibanboshi
Tomekichi, run.
[20:31] Tamekichi
Got it.
[20:33] Mask A
Rashomaru-sama!
[20:47] Ichibanboshi
Hold up!
[20:49] Gyataro
Isn't he supposed to ask
us to handle things here?
[20:54] ---
[20:55] Gyataro
Welp, I guess we'll take
care of this lickety-split!
[21:00] ---
[21:06] Ichibanboshi
I'll never forget that sword or appearance!
[21:09] Ichibanboshi
I'll make you pay, scarf guy!
[21:16] Ichibanboshi
No, you don't!
[21:20] Ichibanboshi
This is for Pops, Ma, and Tsukito!
[21:24] Ichibanboshi
Kondo Isami is gonna bring you to justice!
[21:47] Rashomaru
Kondo Isami?
[21:49] Rashomaru
You don't deserve to call yourself that.
[21:54] Ichibanboshi
Tsukito, you're alive?
[21:59] Rashomaru
That's not my name anymore.
[22:03] Rashomaru
I'm Captain of the Masked Demons, Rashomaru.

[02:24] Ichibanboshi
Tsukito...
[02:26] Ichibanboshi
Why? Why are you a Masked Demon?
[02:30] Ichibanboshi
What happened after that? What about Ma?
[02:37] Rashomaru
You hear that?
[02:39] Rashomaru
Those are the voices of Dad and Mom,
who died by this sword.
[02:46] Ichibanboshi
Pops and Ma?
[02:49] Rashomaru
I killed Mom. I stabbed
her through the heart.
[02:55] Rashomaru
And now you'll give your
life for this nation, too!
[03:03] Sakuya
What are you doing, Dumboshi?
[03:06] Rashomaru
Well, well...
[03:08] Rashomaru
The drowned rat showed up to assist you.
[03:11] Sakuya
I never make the same mistake twice.
[03:14] Sakuya
Number 851.
[03:18] Rashomaru
Not bad, Vice Commander.
[03:21] Rashomaru
Unlike him, you're not weak.
[03:25] Sakuya
Don't compare me to Dumboshi.
[03:27] Sakuya
I won't hold back just because
you're his family, Tsukito.
[03:30] Rashomaru
Call me Rashomaru.
[03:32] Rashomaru
I gave up that name when I killed my mother.
[03:36] Sakuya
Are you bragging about your
own misfortune? How amusing.
[03:43] Rashomaru
I thought you'd understand. After all,
you killed your own father.
[04:03] Akira
Who was that?
[04:04] Sakuya
Captain of the Masked Demons, Rashomaru.
[04:07] Sakuya
He's also Ichibanboshi's brother, Tsukito.
SIGN Shinsengumi
Headquarters
[04:18] Suzuran
Sogen-chan, have you figured anything out?
[04:22] Sogen
Yes. Take a look at these.
[04:24] Suzuran
What are these?
[04:26] Sogen
I soaked the magic swords Ichibanboshi-dono
collected in various chemicals,
[04:30] Sogen
and measured their corrosion levels.
[04:34] Sogen
It turns out these swords are
made from ordinary copper.
[04:38] Sogen
I was unable to detect any
substances responsible for their
[04:42] Sogen
peculiar glow or extraordinary power.
[04:44] Suzuran
Huh. So, what about this?
[04:48] Sogen
I dissected the bodies of the ronin
and found nothing exceptional,
[04:52] Sogen
nor did I find signs they'd
taken any special drugs.
[04:57] Suzuran
In other words...
[04:58] Sogen
I've got nothing.
[05:01] Suzuran
I see. We'll have to come
up with another idea, then.
[05:05] Suzuran
Anyway, this room is crazy.
[05:07] Suzuran
Trick devices, dissected
corpses, and experiments.
[05:11] Suzuran
You're a strange one, Sogen-chan.
[05:13] Sogen
They're all the same.
[05:16] Suzuran
What do you mean?
[05:18] Sogen
I've simply been interested in the
basis of all things since I was young.
SIGN New Book of Anatomy
[05:25] Sogen
This is the New Book of Anatomy,
or Tafel Anatomie.
[05:29] Suzuran
You sure do like that book.
[05:32] Sogen
"Anatomie" means "dissection."
[05:35] Sogen
The word "atom," which shares
the same etymology,
[05:38] Sogen
is based on "a-", meaning
"not," and "tom," "to cut."
[05:39] Sogen
In other words, the ultimate mission of
mankind is to find the root of things
[05:44] Sogen
that cannot be broken down any further.
[05:44] Suzuran
Yup, you're certainly strange.
[05:47] Bo
Shinsengumi applicants, over here.
[05:50] Gyataro
Just listen to them jabber.
[05:53] Gyataro
Stand in a straight line, newbies.
[05:54] Bo
Tell me where you're from
and what your name is.
[05:57] Gyataro
Why do we have to do this?
[06:00] Bo
We don't want to get attacked again.
[06:02] Gyataro
I know that! Man, this sucks!
[06:05] Gyataro
Where did Ichibanboshi run off to?
[06:17] (Flashback) Rashomaru
You hear that?
[06:19] (Flashback) Rashomaru
Those are the voices of Dad and Mom,
who died by this sword.
[06:23] (Flashback) Rashomaru
I killed Mom. I stabbed
her through the heart.
[06:41] Sogen
Suzuran-dono, why are we going for
a walk to take our minds off things?
[06:47] Sogen
Whose house is this?
[06:49] Suzuran
It's Mokichi-san's house.
[06:51] Suzuran
Remember the guy we helped who'd
been stabbed in the street?
[06:54] Sogen
Ah, yes.
[06:55] Suzuran
I come check on him sometimes.
[06:57] Suzuran
His daughter, Oito-chan, takes
really great care of me.
[07:01] Sogen
Is that not the real reason you come here?
[07:03] Suzuran
A few more years, and she'll be in her prime.
[07:09] Suzuran
Oito-chan, are you there?
[07:12] Oito
Mr. Priest!
[07:12] Suzuran
What? Already?
[07:14] Suzuran
We should start by becoming friends first.
[07:16] Oito
Something's wrong with my dad.
[07:22] Oito
He suddenly became unwell.
I don't know what to do.
[07:26] Sogen
The injuries I treated the
other day have healed.
[07:30] Sogen
He doesn't seem to be afflicted
by any other illness.
[07:34] Sogen
But his condition is poor regardless.
[07:38] Sogen
I've never seen a case like this before.
[07:43] Mokichi
Oito...
[07:44] Oito
Dad, I'm right here.
[07:47] Mokichi
I won't last much longer.
[07:50] Oito
Don't say that.
[07:52] Mokichi
You know our relatives in Yamashiro?
[07:56] Oito
Yes.
[07:57] Mokichi
I sent them a letter.
They'll take care of you.
[08:03] Mokichi
Oito, thank you for all
you've done until now.
[08:10] Oito
Dad...
[08:17] Sogen
Impossible.
[08:26] Sogen
I'm sorry. It's my fault
Mokichi-san didn't make it.
[08:30] Oito
Not at all. You both did
everything you could.
[08:36] Oito
And my father seemed at peace in the end.
[08:43] Sogen
I can't stop thinking about it.
[08:45] Sogen
I'd like to dig up Mokichi-san's body and
dissect it to determine his cause of death.
[08:51] Suzuran
Don't. It may satisfy your curiosity,
but Oito-chan wouldn't be able to handle it.
[09:11] Suzuran
You held a Buddhist service for him, huh?
[09:15] Suzuran
But don't you pray not like this,
[09:19] Suzuran
but like this instead?
[09:22] Widow
How did you know that?
[09:23] Suzuran
Let's say a quick Christian
prayer before someone shows up.
[09:27] Suzuran
We can leave a cross on his grave later,
so no one will notice.
[09:31] Widow
Thank you, Father.
[09:39] Todo
Kondo-san, Hijikata-san...
[09:42] Todo
Someday I'll make proper
memorials for all of you.
[09:46] Todo
Please watch over the Shinsengumi until then.
[10:10] Sogen
Suzuran-dono, how did you become a criminal?
[10:14] Suzuran
Like you saw earlier,
[10:16] Suzuran
a government official discovered me
[10:18] Suzuran
conducting a secret funeral
service for Christians in hiding.
[10:21] Suzuran
It was awful.
[10:25] Suzuran
How did you become a criminal?
[10:29] Sogen
I was arrested for dissecting abandoned
corpses and making euthanizing medicines.
[10:40] Sogen
It's embarrassing.
[10:42] Suzuran
So nothing's changed, then.
[10:45] Suzuran
Sogen-chan, what do you think
happens to us when we die?
[10:50] Sogen
There isn't anything after death,
only nothingness.
[10:55] Suzuran
I believe we have souls.
[10:58] Sogen
Souls only exist in picture
scrolls and fairy tales.
[11:03] Suzuran
If you could see souls, would you
believe in them, too?
[11:07] Sogen
If I could observe them,
then I could research them.
[11:11] Sogen
Are you saying you can see them?
[11:14] Suzuran
Who knows?
[11:18] Suzuran
This world is unfair.
[11:21] Suzuran
Rich and poor, lucky and unlucky,
healthy and sick...
[11:28] Suzuran
There are only a few things in this
world that you can choose for yourself.
[11:32] Suzuran
I'd like if everyone were
at least equal after death.
[11:35] Suzuran
I hope we are, anyway.
[11:39] Suzuran
What's this?
[11:40] Sogen
Are your hands shaking
from drinking too much?
[11:43] Suzuran
No. Are you sure you didn't make
some weird modification to it again?
[11:47] Sogen
I made no such alteration.
[11:49] Sogen
Come to think of it,
[11:51] Sogen
Ichibanboshi-dono and Gyataro-dono
said their swords made noises.
[11:57] Suzuran
Are you saying the soul of Saito Hajime-san
that resides within this sword
[12:01] Suzuran
is trying to tell me something?
[12:08] Suzuran
It stopped?
[12:10] Sogen
I wonder what caused that phenomenon.
[12:12] Suzuran
Saito Hajime-san, I don't know
what you're trying to say.
[12:25] Suzuran
I see.
[12:27] Suzuran
Thank you.
[12:29] Sogen
Did you say something?
[12:31] Suzuran
No, nothing.
[12:34] Suzuran
Anyway, I figured out what
the sword was pointing at.
[12:38] Suzuran
It's that building.

[12:53] Todo
responded only in front of the Shirakawaya?
[12:57] Suzuran
That's right.
[12:59] Sogen
I saw it as well.
[13:01] Suzuran
What should we do?
[13:06] Todo
Sit down. We're still in
the middle of a meeting.
[13:08] Ichibanboshi
Let's blitz 'em.
[13:10] Ichibanboshi
If his sword responded to that building,
then it must be a Masked Demon hideout.
[13:14] Gyataro
Yeah, let's get 'em!
[13:17] Bo
We're number one!
[13:21] Todo
Idiots!
[13:22] Gyataro
Ow!
[13:25] Todo
We can't raid the Shirakawaya
without any evidence.
[13:28] Ichibanboshi
We can figure that out while we're there.
[13:30] Todo
You just want to see your brother again.
[13:33] Ichibanboshi
I'm gonna ask Tsukito why he did it.
[13:36] Sakuya
Supposing the Shirakawaya really is an
enemy stronghold, how many are there?
[13:40] Sakuya
Are there any civilians present?
[13:41] Sakuya
How do you know your brother is there?
[13:44] Sakuya
You'd never get the chance to talk to him.
[13:45] Sakuya
You'd only suffer a disgraceful defeat.
[13:47] Ichibanboshi
Shut up!
[13:48] Akira
Patience, Ichibanboshi.
[13:50] Akira
I'm sorry you met your brother
again under those circumstances.
[13:55] Akira
But for now...
[13:56] Suzuran
That's right. We don't know yet that the
Shirakawaya is up to anything shady.
[14:00] Suzuran
And you may have been
named after Kondo Isami,

[14:08] Suzuran

[14:09] Suzuran

[14:12] Todo
The Shirakawaya is one of a few
large shops in the capital.
[14:15] Todo
If we're wrong, it could mean
trouble for Matsudaira Katamori,
[14:19] Todo
who directs the Shinsengumi.
[14:21] Todo
We need evidence first. Got it?
[14:24] All
Yes, sir.
[14:26] Gyataro
If it's information we need, then
we should see what they have to say.
[14:29] Bo
Let's go see the kids.
[14:31] Akira
I'll look into my own leads, too.
[14:34] Sogen
What should we do?
[14:36] Suzuran
We'll have to walk around the city and see
if my sword responds to any other places.
[14:43] Ichibanboshi
Get out of my way.
[14:44] Sakuya
Do you intend to go to the Shirakawaya alone?
[14:47] Sakuya
Your selfish actions will
cause trouble for everyone.
[14:50] Todo
Ichibanboshi, you've lost your head
over the incident with your brother.
[14:54] Todo
I don't want you doing anything.
[14:56] Todo
I'm forbidding you from leaving
our headquarters. That's an order.
[15:00] Ichibanboshi
Damn it!

[15:20] Akira
I'm actually meeting someone here.
[15:23] Streetwalker
Thanks for waiting, Okita Soji.
[15:26] Akira
You're...
[15:29] Akira
Hey, wait!
[15:30] Akira
What are you doing?
[15:33] Katsura
You're the one who requested
a clandestine meeting.
[15:36] Katsura
That's why I'm here.
[15:38] Akira
There's nothing clandestine
about this meeting.
[15:39] Akira
I'm here to clarify once and for all—
[15:41] Katsura
But aren't things more fun
when they're not cut and dry?
[15:45] Katsura
Well? You have something
to ask me, don't you?
[15:48] Akira
Yes. The truth is...
[15:52] Katsura
The Shirakawaya, huh?
[15:54] Akira
We don't know why,
[15:56] Akira
but we believe they've made some
kind of deal with the Masked Demons.
[16:00] Katsura
It's true that the rumors I hear about
the Shirakawaya aren't very positive.
[16:03] Katsura
They've made a killing by unfairly
raising the price on kerosene.
[16:09] Akira
Kerosene?
[16:12] Akira
Hey, what are you—
[16:16] Ronin A
It's the middle of the day, and
they're already going at it.
[16:20] Katsura
Don't look.
[16:23] Katsura
Sorry. Be patient for a moment.
[16:27] Akira
Fine.
[16:32] (Flashback) Ichibanboshi
Ichibanboshi? Tsukito?
[16:35] (Flashback) Ichibanboshi Dad
Did you get in a fight again, Ichibanboshi?
[16:37] (Flashback) Ichibanboshi Mom
Look at you.
[16:39] (Flashback) Ichibanboshi
It's Tsukito's fault.
[16:42] (Flashback) Tsuki
I... I...
[16:44] (Flashback) Ichibanboshi Dad
Ichibanboshi, we know you're
undefeated around here.
[16:49] (Flashback) Ichibanboshi Mom
But it's Tsukito who's strong.
[16:52] (Flashback) Tsukito
What?
[16:53] (Flashback) Ichibanboshi
Why? I'm number one.
[16:56] (Flashback) Ichibanboshi Mom
Because no matter how much
he's hit, kicked, or insulted,
[16:59] (Flashback) Ichibanboshi Mom
Tsukito endures it and doesn't fight.
[17:02] (Flashback) Ichibanboshi Mom
That makes him the strongest.
[17:11] Sakuya
You can practice all you want,
but there's no point.
[17:14] Ichibanboshi
Shut up.
[17:15] Sakuya
Your brother killed your mother
and sided with the enemy.
[17:19] Sakuya
Why do you hesitate?
Why don't you try to kill him?
[17:22] Sakuya
You need to steel your resolve.
[17:24] Ichibanboshi
There must be some reason he did it.
[17:26] Ichibanboshi
Otherwise, Tsukito never would've done that.
[17:29] Sakuya
So you're going to talk to him about it?
[17:31] Sakuya
Such a lukewarm attitude. If you
don't kill him, he'll kill you.
[17:33] Ichibanboshi
I'm not like you! You killed your own father!
[17:39] Sakuya
He didn't deserve to live.
[17:42] Sakuya
He was the embodiment of this shitty
world you're always complaining about,
[17:45] Sakuya
like Rashomaru is now.
[17:48] Ichibanboshi
Tsukito's different. He's not a piece of shit.
[17:52] Ichibanboshi
He's a kind man.
[17:55] Sakuya
I know because I've fought against him.
[17:57] Sakuya
He fights like a demon who's
killed countless people.
[18:03] Sakuya
He lost his humanity a long time ago.
[18:09] Sakuya
If you won't kill him,
then I'll kill Rashomaru myself.
[18:13] Sakuya
I came to tell you that.
[18:21] Sakuya
If he's useless on our next mission,
then I'll kill Dumboshi first.
[18:27] Sakuya
Those who can't follow orders
should be dealt with immediately.
[18:37] Sogen
Regarding your question about
the existence of souls...
[18:41] Suzuran
Yeah?
[18:42] Sogen
Are you aware that when people die,
they become about five momme lighter?
[18:47] Suzuran
I didn't know that. Is that widely known?
[18:50] Sogen
Among those who study medicine, yes.
[18:53] Suzuran
Hold on. Have you measured that yourself?
[18:55] Sogen
Yes, with about a hundred bodies.
[18:58] Sogen
There was some variation, but they all
lost roughly the same amount of weight.
[19:02] Suzuran
So those five momme a person loses
when they die is their soul?
[19:08] Sogen
I had the same thought.
[19:10] Sogen
Souls may not be visible,
but perhaps they have weight.
[19:15] Suzuran
Interesting.
[19:16] Sogen
That sword...
[19:18] Suzuran
Saito Hajime-san's Kijinmaru Kunishige.
[19:21] Suzuran
You modified it so it would carry
an electric current, right?
[19:27] Sogen
Yes. Normally electricity isn't
visible, but its power moves objects.
[19:34] Suzuran
Like a soul.
[19:35] Sogen
Yes. Souls work in the same way.
[19:38] Sogen
Perhaps they're a power source.
[19:42] Suzuran
A power source?
[19:43] Sogen
Yes. Not only that, but a mere five momme
has the power to move an entire human.
[19:50] Sogen
Electricity can't compare.
[19:52] Suzuran
Is that what they're trying to do?
[19:56] Suzuran
Use souls as a power source?
[19:58] Sogen
But how do they collect and store the souls?
[20:02] Suzuran
Maybe the answer to that question
is inside the Shirakawaya.
[20:13] Sogen
This is the place.
[20:17] Sogen
Well, well...
[20:18] Sogen
If the Masked Demons themselves
showed up to attack us...
[20:22] Suzuren
Then we were right about the Shirakawaya.
[20:25] Masked Demon
You're not getting past that door.
[20:28] Sogen
Your mysterious swords killed Mokichi-san.
[20:36] Sogen
Remember this.
[20:39] Sogen
There's nothing a doctor hates more
than losing a patient they've treated!
[20:46] Suzuran
And priests hate seeing restless
souls treated so disrespectfully!
[20:55] Masked Demon
Give your lives for the nation!
[21:04] Tsuchimikado
So Kondo Isami's substitute is your brother.
[21:08] Rashomaru
Yes.
[21:10] Tsuchimikado
Rashomaru, you must hate me.
[21:15] Rashomaru
What are you talking about?
[21:17] Rashomaru
You're the one who gave me the name
Rashomaru and a noble mission.
[21:22] Rashomaru
I have no reason to hate you.
[21:26] Tsuchimikado
What shall we do with
Kondo Isami's substitute?
[21:31] Rashomaru
If he aims to ruin our plans,
then I'll kill him.
[21:38] Suzuran
We're back.
[21:40] Todo
What happened?
[21:42] Sogen
We were attacked by Masked Demons.
[21:44] Suzuran
While scouting out the Shirakawaya.
[21:47] Akira
That makes things clear.
[21:49] Todo
Tomorrow night, the Shinsengumi is
going to the Shirakawaya on a job.
[21:53] Todo
Make sure you're well-prepared.
[21:56] All
Yes, sir.
[21:59] Todo
Ichibanboshi.
[22:00] Ichibanboshi
Yeah?
[22:01] Todo
You're staying here.
[22:03] Ichibanboshi
What?
[22:04] Todo
You're not going on tomorrow night's job.
[22:09] Todo
I can't allow someone so
flippant to wield Kotetsu.

I can't allow someone so

[00:39] Ichibanboshi
I'm being taken off the job
for a dumb reason like that?
[00:42] Todo
Silence! You know it's true.
[00:45] Gyataro
It feels kinda lame to do a
job without our commander.
[00:49] Bo
I want Ichibanboshi to come with us, too.
[00:51] Suzuran
Yeah. It's kind of a downer without him.
[00:54] Sogen
His ideas are interesting.
[00:56] Sogen
It is necessary to be flexible
when handling situations.
[01:01] Akira
Ichibanboshi did an excellent
job at the Yoshidaya.
[01:04] Akira
You mustn't be rash in
your assessment of him.
[01:07] Sakuya
The Shirakawaya is the Demons' lair.
[01:10] Sakuya
We don't need anyone who would hold us
back in a potentially fatal bloodbath.
[01:13] Todo
Sakuya's right.
[01:15] Todo
Is there anyone here who feels
comfortable counting on Ichibanboshi
[01:19] Todo
when he's distracted and
agitated by his brother?
[01:24] Todo
We're done here.

[03:04] Ichibanboshi
Tsukito, put out your hand.
[03:06] (Flashback) Tsukito
My hand?
[03:07] (Flashback) Tsukito
What is it, brother?
[03:10] (Flashback) Ichibanboshi
Here.
[03:12] (Flashback) Tsukito
Wow!
[03:13] (Flashback) Ichibanboshi
Looks good, right?
[03:15] (Flashback) Tsukito
Huh? Where's yours?
[03:17] (Flashback) Ichibanboshi
What? Oh, I already ate mine.
[03:21] (Flashback) Tsukito
In that case...
[03:24] (Flashback) Tsukito
Here.
[03:25] (Flashback) Ichibanboshi
I told you, that's your share.
[03:29] (Flashback) Tsukito
Food tastes better when
you're eating with someone.
[03:36] (Flashback) Ichibanboshi
Fine, then.
[03:40] Ichibanboshi
I know it.
[03:43] Ichibanboshi
Tsukito's a nice guy.
[03:47] Ichibanboshi
Nicer than anyone! The nicest!
[03:50] Male Customer
Uh, yeah.
[03:52] Barkeeper
Sir, you've had too much to drink.
[03:54] Ichibanboshi
How could I abandon him?
[03:56] Barkeeper
What?
[03:56] Ichibanboshi
We've been together ever since
we were born. We're family.
[04:01] Ichibanboshi
For him, I'd...
[04:03] Uchiyama
Exactly.
[04:06] Uchiyama
Nothing's more important than family.
[04:08] Ichibanboshi
Huh?
[04:09] Uchiyama
Blood relatives give us peace of mind, love,
[04:13] Uchiyama
and the courage to keep on going.
[04:17] Ichibanboshi
Here's someone who gets it.
[04:20] Uchiyama
My name is Uchiyama Hikojiro.
[04:22] Ichibanboshi
I'm Ichibanboshi. Nice to meet you.
[04:24] Uchiyama
Likewise.
[04:29] Uchiyama
I'm like you.
[04:31] Uchiyama
I've done anything and
everything for my sister.
[04:35] Ichibanboshi
Sounds like you've been through a lot, too.
[04:38] Uchiyama
But that's all over now. Okayo's engaged.
[04:42] Ichibanboshi
That's great news.
Let's go for another round.
[04:47] Uchiyama
It's morning already.
All the bars are closed.
[04:50] Uchiyama
And besides, I've some minor
business to attend to.
[04:54] Ichibanboshi
I see.
[04:55] Ichibanboshi
Then let's go drinking again sometime.
You and I get along great.
[04:58] Uchiyama
Let us both continue protecting
our families, Ichibanboshi.
[05:01] Ichibanboshi
You bet, Hikojiro.

[05:13] Tsuchimikado
In other words, you wish to cut ties with us?
[05:16] Uchiyama
I no longer need to push myself so hard.
[05:18] Uchiyama
I want this job to be my last.
[05:20] Uchiyama
Naturally, I won't tell anyone
about anything I've done until now.
[05:24] Tsuchimikado
There's no point in trying to
stop someone who wants to quit.
[05:28] Tsuchimikado
We'll search for other partners.
[05:30] Uchiyama
In that case, farewell.
[05:37] Tsuchimikado
Rashomaru...
[05:38] Rashomaru
Yes, sir. Leave it to me.
SIGN Shirakawaya
[06:01] Uchiyama
I'm back.
[06:03] Okayo
Brother, welcome back.
[06:09] Okayo
You were out all night again.
[06:10] Uchiyama
At least let me drink on my days off.
[06:14] Uchiyama
I met an interesting fellow at the bar.
[06:18] Okayo
Well, you're in a good mood. How unusual.
[06:21] Uchiyama
By the way, Okayo,
[06:24] Uchiyama
the Gion Festival is coming up.
[06:26] Okayo
Yes, I'm looking forward to it.
[06:28] Uchiyama
You should leave Kyoto for a while.
[06:30] Okayo
What? But I've already made
plans with my friends.
[06:33] Uchiyama
You have to leave.
[06:39] Gyataro
All right, boys! Let's do this!
[06:42] All
Yeah!
[06:44] Member 1
Nagakura-san, I don't see Commander Kondo.
[06:47] Gyataro
Oh, yeah. He's, uh...
[06:51] Akira
The Commander isn't coming
because he doesn't feel well.
[06:54] Bo
Doesn't feel well?
[06:56] Member 1
I see.
[06:58] Sogen
If they'd told me beforehand,
[07:00] Sogen
I could've given him a medicine that
would've caused actual symptoms of illness.
[07:03] Suzuran
Wouldn't that just be poison?
[07:07] Sogen
Poison and medicine are two
sides of the same coin.
[07:10] Gyataro
Man, this really is no fun without him.
[07:14] Bo
Yeah.
[07:15] Sakuya
If you're looking to
make friends, go somewhere else.
[07:18] Gyataro
You're getting real cocky, aren't you?
[07:22] Sakuya
Are you trying to die before the job begins?
[07:25] Sakuya
I don't mind either way.
[07:27] Gyataro
You wanna go?
[07:28] Gyataro
You may be an expert swordsman,
[07:31] Gyataro
but you don't stand a chance
against projectile weapons.
[07:40] Todo
How long are you going
to stand around chatting?
[07:42] Todo
The continued existence of the
Shinsengumi depends on this job.
[07:45] Todo
Pull yourselves together.
[07:49] Todo
Understood.
[07:52] Todo
We've received word from Okita
Soji and the inspectors that the
[07:54] Todo
Shirakawaya has been making a killing
by manipulating the price of kerosene.
[08:01] Akira
They're probably funding the Masked Demons.
[08:04] Suzuran
Why haven't they been arrested for it?
[08:07] Todo
Because the town magistrate, Uchiyama
Hikojiro, who should be keeping them in line
[08:11] Todo
is pulling strings behind the scenes.
[08:12] Gyataro
So they're free to do whatever they want.
[08:16] Todo
Uchiyama's wrongdoings justify our raid.
[08:20] Todo
Therefore, it is imperative
that we not kill Uchiyama.
[08:23] Todo
He must be captured alive and
made to confess his crimes.
[08:27] Todo
Got it?
[08:29] All
Yes, sir!
[08:38] Tsukito
Ma!
[08:39] Ichibanboshi Mom
Tsukito!
SIGN Shirakawaya
[09:07] Todo
Low-ranking members, to the annex.
[09:09] All
Yes, sir!
[09:10] Todo
Captains, we'll search the main building.
[09:13] Todo
Law enforcement! Open up!
[09:15] Todo
Search the rooms.
[09:24] Gyataro
We didn't find anyone.
[09:26] Akira
Neither did I.
[09:27] Sogen
Why did they flee?
[09:29] Suzuran
Did they know we were coming?
[09:32] Todo
Could it be?
[09:34] Sakuya
Todo.
[09:37] Sakuya
The rest of you, this way.
[09:41] Sakuya
Look at this.
[09:42] Todo
Is that metal?
[09:43] Akira
It looks like a door.
[09:45] Gyataro
These barrels are in the way. All you, Bo.
[09:53] Todo
A basement?
[09:58] Suzuran
Listen to that sound.
[09:59] Sogen
Judging by the echo,
it's rather spacious down there.
[10:03] Sakuya
There could still be something down there
they weren't able to move elsewhere.
[10:07] Todo
But this lock is blocking our path.
[10:10] Gyataro
Ta-dah!
[10:12] Gyataro
I can get this thing open easy-peasy.
[10:17] Gyataro
Gyataro, you're not a criminal anymore.
[10:20] Suzuran
Now, now. Don't be so uptight.
[10:40] Akira
It's rather deep.
[10:42] Bo
How far does it go?
[10:44] Gyataro
All the way down to hell.
[10:53] Sogen
I wouldn't recommend taking flames
inside a kerosene warehouse.
[10:57] Suzuran
But if we put them out,
we won't be able to see.
[11:01] Suzuran
Huh? Hold on.
[11:15] Todo

Scary.
[11:30] Sogen
Suzuran-dono, this section
almost looks like bonji.
[11:37] Suzuran
If I had to choose,
I'd say it looks like āk.
[11:40] Sakuya
Does that mean anything?
[11:42] Suzuran
Well, there's the Nyorai's on
abokya shitsudei aku mantra.
[11:45] Suzuran
And in the Five Buddhas of the Womb
Realm mandala, it represents north.
[11:51] Suzuran
You have no idea what I'm
talking about, do you?
[11:54] Suzuran
But it does kind of look
like it was drawn at random.
[11:58] Suzuran
Huh?
[12:02] Todo
Let's keep going.
[12:15] Akira
Is this the source of the sound?
[12:17] Sogen
Now, this is an interesting device.
[12:20] Suzuran
Sogen-chan, can you tell what it's used for?
[12:24] Sogen
No, I haven't the slightest idea.
[12:26] Sogen
But that's what makes it so interesting.
[12:29] Rashomaru
You wanna know what this is?
[12:34] Rashomaru
You were fools to come to
this place, Shinsengumi.
[12:41] Rashomaru
What? Why isn't Kondo Isami with you?
[12:45] Rashomaru
Did he lose his nerve?
[12:47] Bo
Ichibanboshi is no coward!
[12:50] Rashomaru
Oh? So you admire him, do you?
[12:57] Ichibanboshi
Tsukito.
[12:58] Rashomaru
This is how you use this device.
[13:17] Todo
Bastard! What are you doing?
[13:21] Rashomaru
You'll find out once you've
died and become souls.
[13:26] Rashomaru
So I'll do you the favor of killing you.
[13:30] Gyataro
We're playing hide and seek now?
[13:34] Akira
Watch out!
[13:36] Gyataro
Asshole!
[13:37] Akira
Don't shoot in here.
You'll ignite the kerosene.
[13:40] Gyataro
Damn it. Fine.
[13:47] Rashomaru
You can see me?
[13:51] Sogen
You smell like blood.
[13:53] Rashomaru
Oh, yeah?
[14:01] Rashomaru
That's it, Hijikata-kun.
[14:04] Rashomaru
You're a strong one.
[14:06] Rashomaru
You should quit the Shinsengumi
and join us instead.
[14:10] Sakuya
I could never wear one
of your lame-ass masks.
[14:16] Todo
To me, everyone! If we separate,
we'll be playing into his hands!
[14:22] Rashomaru
You can turn criminals into substitutes,
[14:24] Rashomaru
but unless they're strong,
it's all over for you!
[14:32] Todo
What?
SIGN Shirakawaya
[14:39] Ichibanboshi
Tsukito! Where are you?
[14:45] Ichibanboshi
Tsukito!
[14:47] Rashomaru
I told you, I no longer go by that name.
[14:51] Ichibanboshi
Why'd you join the Masked Demons?
[14:53] Ichibanboshi
Are they threatening you?
[14:54] Ichibanboshi
You're too nice. You'd never
do anything like that.
[14:58] Rashomaru
The person I am now is the real me.
[15:01] Ichibanboshi
No. You're wrong.
[15:02] Rashomaru
I used this blade that slew
our father to kill our mother.
[15:07] Rashomaru
And that's not all...
[15:09] Rashomaru
Killing a great many people
causes me no anguish.
[15:13] Rashomaru
If anything, I believe it is my true purpose.
[15:18] Rashomaru
Your companions are down there.
[15:22] Rashomaru
If you don't hurry up and rescue them,
they'll be burnt to a crisp.
[15:27] Ichibanboshi
What did you say?
[15:39] Gyataro
Damn it. It's locked.
[15:42] Todo
We'll find another way out.
[15:44] Sakuya
If there is one.
[15:46] Suzuran
What? But the flames are right behind us.
[15:48] Ichibanboshi
Tsukito!
[15:50] Bo
I hear Ichibanboshi.
[15:53] Todo
What? But he's not allowed
to leave headquarters.
[15:56] Gyataro
He's here? Hey, Ichibanboshi!
[16:00] Gyataro
Open this door!
[16:03] Rashomaru
Your friends are calling you.
[16:05] Rashomaru
Now draw your sword and fight me.
[16:15] Ichibanboshi
I can't kill you.
[16:17] Rashomaru
So you'll abandon them? How cruel.
[16:21] Rashomaru
Your companions spoke so
highly of you, Kondo Isami.
[16:25] Ichibanboshi
Why are you doing this?
I want to rescue my allies.
[16:29] Ichibanboshi
But I don't want to kill you.
[16:33] Ichibanboshi
I want to help you, too.
[16:35] Rashomaru
You've lived a soft life.
[16:39] Rashomaru
The world isn't so convenient.
[16:45] Rashomaru
Well, I figured this might happen.
[16:48] Rashomaru
Come on out.
[16:54] Uchiyama
Ichibanboshi?
[16:56] Ichibanboshi
Hikojiro?
[16:57] Ichibanboshi
What are you doing here?
[16:59] Uchiyama
What are you doing here?
[17:01] Rashomaru
This is the late Shinsengumi
commander Kondo Isami's substitute.
[17:08] Uchiyama
Substitute?
[17:09] Rashomaru
And this is the town
magistrate, Uchiyama Hikojiro,
[17:13] Rashomaru
who's been making dirty money with the
Shirakawaya to help his dear little sister.
[17:17] Ichibanboshi
You? You can't be serious.
[17:19] Uchiyama
I told you, I'd do anything for Okayo.
[17:28] Rashomaru
Uchiyama.
[17:30] Rashomaru
Kill him. Don't give him the key.
[17:33] Rashomaru
Then we'll allow you to
withdraw from our deal.
[17:36] Rashomaru
Try to run, and we'll kill your sister.
[17:42] Rashomaru
Kondo Isami's substitute,
kill Uchiyama and take the key.
[17:48] Rashomaru
Don't you want to save your friends?
[17:56] Ichibanboshi
No, Hikojiro. Don't do this!
[17:58] Ichibanboshi
I can't fight a friend.
[18:02] Rashomaru
Don't be such a wimp.
[18:05] Rashomaru
I'm sure you can handle killing a friend.
[18:07] Rashomaru
I had to kill our mother!
[18:10] Rashomaru
Back then, I...
[18:24] (Flashback) Masked Man
Boy, step forward.
[18:28] (Flashback) Masked Man
Step forward.
[18:30] (Flashback) Tsukito
Ma...
[18:40] (Flashback) Masked Man
Use that sword to kill your mother.
[18:42] (Flashback) Masked Man
Do it, and you'll be spared.
[18:46] (Flashback) Masked Man
Kill your mother so that you can live.
[18:55] Rashomaru
With my own two hands, I killed her.
[18:59] Ichibanboshi
You...
[19:01] Rashomaru
Kondo Isami, hurry up and kill Uchiyama
so you can rescue your friends.
[19:07] Rashomaru
Watching you is a truly
aggravating experience.
[19:12] Uchiyama
I'll kill you for Okayo's sake!
[19:16] Ichibanboshi
Hikojiro, don't do this.
[19:19] Ichibanboshi
Stop! Don't!
[19:31] Gyataro
It's no use.
[19:32] Akira
Is that really Ichibanboshi?
[19:34] Todo
I told him not to come.
[19:37] Sakuya
Dumboshi doesn't matter right now.
[19:39] Sakuya
We need to come up with
a way to get out of here.
[19:42] Sogen
I have an idea.
[19:54] Akira
It's getting hard to breathe.
[19:56] Sogen
The flames are consuming
the oxygen in the basement.
[20:00] Sogen
Soon, all the oxygen will be gone
and we won't be able to breathe.
[20:04] Todo
Then we must hurry.
[20:06] Sogen
Before I light this, I must warn you.
[20:10] Sogen
Once the door above us explodes,
[20:11] Sogen
the oxygen outside will rush
into the basement all at once.
[20:15] Suzuren
And then?
[20:16] Sogen
The flames will increase in intensity.
[20:19] Akira
Even more than now?
[20:20] Sakuya
Death by explosion or death by fire.
[20:23] Gyataro
Then we'll have to brace ourselves...
[20:26] Bo
...to run into the explosion.
[20:28] Sogen
Fire in the hole.
[20:32] Todo
Run!
[20:39] Todo
Keep going!
[20:43] Todo
Outside, quickly!
[20:50] Bo
Ichibanboshi!
[20:51] Gyataro
He really did come!
[20:53] Todo
This is a breach of discipline!

Prevent! The Dissolution of the Shinsengumi
[02:45] Gyataro
If the Shinsengumi is disbanded,
we'll go back to being criminals, right?
[02:51] Gyataro
And then...
[02:53] Bo
Beheaded.
[02:54] Sogen
All we can do is wait until
the official word is given.
[02:58] Suzuran
We'll get more than a slap on the wrist.
[03:00] Akira
The Shirakawaya burned to the ground.
[03:02] Akira
Its connections to the Masked
Demons went up in flames,
[03:04] Akira
not to mention the magical swords.
[03:07] Akira
If only some evidence of their
kerosene price gouging had remained.
[03:12] Sakuya
This wouldn't have happened
if Dumboshi had killed
[03:15] Sakuya
Rashomaru instead of Uchiyama Hikojiro.
[03:18] Bo
It's not easy to kill a brother.
[03:21] Gyataro
Whining about that now won't do any good.
[03:25] Sakuya
It's the Shinsengumi's mission.
[03:29] Suzuran
Sakuya-chan, where are you going?
[03:41] (Flashback) Rashomaru
I used this blade that slew
our father to kill our mother.
[03:45] (Flashback) Rashomaru
And that's not all...
[03:47] (Flashback) Rashomaru
Killing a great many people
causes me no anguish.
[03:51] (Flashback) Rashomaru
If anything, I believe it is my true purpose.
[04:01] Ichibanboshi
Sakuya...
[04:04] Sakuya
Have you steeled your resolve?
[04:06] Ichibanboshi
What resolve?
[04:08] Sakuya
Kill Rashomaru with your own two hands.
[04:13] Katamori
I'm the one who sought to preserve
the Shinsengumi, even if it meant
[04:17] Katamori
recruiting criminals, so peace and
order could be maintained in Kyoto.
[04:20] Katamori
But this situation is very bad for us, Todo.
[04:23] Todo
I have no excuse to offer you.
[04:25] Akizuki
Ultimately, criminals are criminals.
[04:28] Akizuki
Katamori, going forward, you should allow
the Mimawarigumi to protect the capital.
[04:32] Katamori
Have the Shogun's retainers assembled?
[04:34] Akizuki
The matter hasn't been decided yet,
[04:36] Akizuki
but I can't allow a group
of libertines to continue
[04:39] Akizuki
tarnishing the Aizu Domain's name.
[04:43] Todo
It would be an insult to
the late Commander Kondo
[04:45] Todo
and the captains if the
Shinsengumi were disbanded.
[04:48] Todo
Allow me to commit seppuku instead so that—
[04:51] Akizuki
What good would it do to kill
the sole remaining survivor?
[04:54] Katamori
Todo, this isn't a matter that can be
resolved by you sacrificing your life.
[04:58] Katamori
I have no choice but to punish the group.
[05:01] Katamori
Restore the Shinsengumi's honor.
[05:03] Katamori
Otherwise, it'll be disbanded.
[05:05] Katamori
You have three days.
[05:07] Katamori
Understood?
[05:09] Todo
Understood.
[05:12] Ichibanboshi
You want me to kill Tsukito?
[05:15] Sakuya
The Shinsengumi is in danger of
being disbanded because of you.
[05:18] Sakuya
You must distinguish yourself by killing
Rashomaru, Captain of the Masked Demons.
[05:24] Ichibanboshi
I know Tsukito better than anyone.
[05:26] Ichibanboshi
If we could just talk
things out, I know he—
[05:28] Sakuya
His name isn't Tsukito!
[05:32] Sakuya
You're his older brother.
It's your job to kill him.
[05:34] Sakuya
Your miserable little brother who
has lost touch of his humanity.
[05:38] Sakuya
And if you can't do that, then stay here
spewing nonsense until the day you die.
SIGN Sincerity
[05:46] Gyataro
What? A mere...
[05:48] Bo
Three days?
[05:50] Suzuran
We're supposed to achieve
something in that time?
[05:52] Sogen
That's rather harsh, coming from Katamori.
[05:55] Akira
He's practically telling us it's
inevitable we'll be disbanded.
[05:58] Gyataro
In any case, let's patrol the city!
[06:00] Bo
Patrol!
[06:01] Gyataro
Arrest every last suspicious
character you see!
[06:03] Akira
Calm down. Acting rashly
would be counterproductive.
[06:06] Akira
The Shinsengumi's already tarnished
name would be ruined completely.
[06:09] Suzuran
But we can't afford to waste any time.
[06:12] Sogen
And we have no leads on how
we can restore our honor.
[06:15] Sakuya
I do.
[06:19] Gyataro
We're in the middle of
a crisis. Where have you been?
[06:24] Sakuya
A sword polisher told me
[06:26] Sakuya
he sharpened Miyabe Teizo's sword yesterday.
[06:30] Todo
Miyabe is a royalist from the Higo Domain.
[06:33] Todo
He's an anti-shogunate extremist.
[06:36] Akira
I thought the anti-shogunate Choshu Domain
[06:39] Akira
was thrown out of the capital on
August 18th, when the government changed.
[06:45] Suzuran
If he's snuck back into the city...
[06:47] Sogen
The he must be plotting something.
[06:50] Sakuya
The sword polisher said he sharpened
not just Miyabe's sword,
[06:52] Sakuya
but the swords of his companions as well.
[06:54] Sakuya
All together, there were 25 of them.
[06:56] Akira
That many?
[06:58] Todo
If a group of extremist ronin
have returned to the capital,
[07:01] Todo
and are working with the Masked Demons...
[07:03] Gyataro
Then we know what we need to do.
[07:15] Ichibanboshi
Tsukito...
[07:20] Ichibanboshi
If I have to kill Tsukito, I'd rather...
[07:25] Gyataro
We'll make our comeback by
arresting Miyabe and his guys.
[07:29] Bo
Yeah.
[07:30] Suzuran
The Shinsengumi's going to survive.
[07:32] Sogen
Let's begin by gathering information.
[07:36] Todo
The Shinsengumi will now begin pursuing
Miyabe and his extremist group.
[07:40] Todo
Don't let your guard down.
[07:42] All
Yes, sir.
[07:44] Bo
What about Ichibanboshi?
[07:46] Todo
Not him.
[07:48] Akira
The more of us there are, the better.
[07:50] Suzuran
That's right. Besides, he's our commander.
[07:52] Todo
Whose fault do you think it is
that we're in this situation?
[07:56] Sogen
We also had a hand in the
fire at the Shirakawaya.
[08:00] Sogen
It wasn't just Ichibanboshi-dono's fault.
[08:02] Todo
Enough. If we make it out of this crisis,
Ichibanboshi will commit seppuku.
[08:07] Bo
Seppuku...
[08:09] Member
It's an emergency.
[08:10] Todo
What is it?
[08:11] Member
Please come to the confinement
cell immediately.
[08:13] Member
It's Commander Kondo.
[08:21] Bo
He's not here.
[08:23] Todo
He escaped?
[08:25] Gyataro
Aw, man. Look at the mess he made.
[08:28] Gyataro
That was pretty clever of him.
[08:32] Gyataro
He broke a dish and used the
shards to dig a hole in the wall.
[08:35] Akira
We don't have time to chase
down a fugitive right now.
[08:38] Todo
I know. We'll have others
search for Ichibanboshi.
[08:42] Todo
I need you lot to investigate Miyabe ASAP.
[08:52] Suzuran
Aren't you the one who brought him his meal?
[08:56] Suzuran
Why did you show him how to escape?
[08:59] Sakuya
What are you talking about?
[09:02] Suzuran
Did you tell him to handle his
brother's misdeeds himself?
[09:07] Sakuya
Stay out of it.
[09:12] Suzuran
Not everyone is as strong as you.
[09:14] Suzuran
We can't all live as you do.
[09:25] Member
Have you seen him?
[09:26] Member
No.
[09:27] Member
Where is he?
[09:28] Member
Find him.

[09:58] Sogen
I spoke with the Dutch scholars
and physicians I know,
[10:01] Sogen
but failed to gather any information.
[10:02] Sogen
What about you, Suzuran-dono?
[10:04] Suzuran
Same. I asked a bunch of geishas
I know, but I got nothing.
SIGN Offering Lantern
[10:10] Sogen
The city is buzzing with energy these days.
[10:13] Suzuran
The Gion Festival is the day after tomorrow.
[10:15] Suzuran
Tomorrow is the yoiyama.
[10:16] Sogen
Yoiyama?
[10:18] Suzuran
The festival eve.
[10:20] Sogen
I see. Since long ago, the capital has stood
on a marsh, making disease spread easily.
[10:25] Sogen
That's why they hold a festival
around this time of year.
[10:27] Suzuran
Festivals are for putting the
souls of the dead to rest.
[10:33] Suzuran
Let's hurry.
[10:35] Suzuran
I'm not interested in watching
the festival from the afterlife.
[10:40] Gyataro
Ronin from other domains?
[10:43] Tamekichi
Choshu, Satsuma, Higo, and Tosa.
[10:46] Tamekichi
Guys with all kinds of crazy
accents are gathering.
[10:48] Gyataro
Sounds shady to me.
[10:50] Gyataro
What's Miyabe planning?
[10:53] Tamekichi
You'd better watch out, Gyata-nii.
[10:55] Gyataro
I know, but I don't have
time to take things slow.
[11:00] Katsura
I feel relaxed on boats.
[11:04] Katsura
The only thing agitating me right
now is the beautiful woman with me.
[11:08] Akira
We don't need to worry about being
overheard if we talk on a moving boat.
[11:12] Akira
It's the perfect place for
a secret conversation.
[11:15] Akira
Let's get down to business.
[11:18] Akira
I don't have time for your nonsense.
[11:21] Katsura
I know Miyabe Teizo well.
[11:23] Katsura
He not only deceived my fellow
Choshu Domain countrymen,
[11:27] Katsura
but attempted to recruit me as well.
[11:29] Akira
Does he have any connections
to the Masked Demons?
[11:31] Katsura
If the Shinsengumi is looking
to distinguish itself,
[11:34] Katsura
then you should pay him a visit
and find out for yourselves.
[11:36] Katsura
You'll want to visit Masuya,
the ink wholesaler.
[11:39] Akira
Masuya, huh? I appreciate it.
[11:44] Katsura
So, what kind of information
can you give me in exchange?
[11:48] Akira
I'm sorry, but I don't have much.
[11:51] Akira
I can pay you instead.
[11:54] Katsura
I don't need money.
[11:57] Akira
But...
[11:58] Katsura
Did you know?
[11:59] Katsura
Apparently in the West, they express
their gratitude with a kiss.
[12:03] Akira
What? You're lying.
[12:05] Katsura
It's true.
[12:07] Katsura
Although not on the mouth, but here instead.
[12:12] Akira
How shameless! Absolutely outrageous.
[12:15] Katsura
I think it's a wonderful practice.
[12:18] Katsura
Come, now. Hurry up and thank me.
[12:21] Akira
What?
[12:26] Akira
This is just an expression
of gratitude, nothing more.
[12:37] Akira
What are you doing, you rogue?
[12:39] Katsura
The boat rocked. You were taking too long.
[12:43] Katsura
Come on, now. Quickly.
[13:01] Ichibanboshi
You're Uchiyama Hikojiro's sister, right?
[13:05] Okayo
Who are you?
[13:06] Ichibanboshi
I need to talk to you
about the late Hikojiro.
[13:10] Okayo

[13:14] Miyabe
I'm impressed you were
able to gather so many.
[13:17] Furutaka
I did it for the nation.
[13:19] Rashomaru
He finds your exclusionist
attitude pleasing as well.
[13:24] Miyabe
We won't allow foreigners
to overrun this country.
[13:27] Furutaka
Noble sacrifices must be made.
[13:31] Rashomaru
That's what you call true strength.
[13:33] Akira
Open up. Law enforcement.
[13:35] Suzuran
This is a raid.
[13:36] Akira
Is the owner here?
[13:38] Head Clerk
He's not here at the moment.
[13:40] Akira
We've received a complaint from the people.
[13:42] Akira
We'd like to search the store.
[13:44] Head Clerk
I can't allow you to do that.
[13:46] Gyataro
We just wanna take a look around.
[13:49] Gyataro
Quit your whining.
[13:49] Furutaka
The Shinsengumi?
[13:51] Sakuya
They're in the storeroom in the back.
[13:54] Furutaka
The Shinsengumi is here.
[13:55] Miyabe
What? How did they find this place?
[13:59] Rashomaru
Sounds like they're not
so incompetent after all.
[14:01] Rashomaru
But once this plan is set
in motion, it can't be stopped.
[14:07] Sogen
This way.
[14:09] Furutaka
Miyabe-san, Rashomaru-san...
I'll handle this.

There was nothing we could do.
[15:00] Ichibanboshi
Hikojiro cared about you
until his final moments.
[15:04] Ichibanboshi
He said he wanted to see you get married,
[15:07] Ichibanboshi
dressed all in white,
right up until the end.
[15:13] Okayo
I had a feeling this day
would come eventually...
[15:19] Okayo
Ever since my brother started meeting
with those men in the unsettling masks.
[15:24] Ichibanboshi
He did it for you.
[15:27] Okayo
I asked him so many times to stop.
[15:29] Okayo
I said I didn't need the money.

Tell me what your brother was

We captured Furutaka Shuntaro,
one of Miyabe's associates.
[17:25] Todo
I wish I could congratulate
you on a job well done,

If he were here, he wouldn't
be happy about this.
[18:11] Okayo
My brother said something strange to me.
[18:14] Ichibanboshi
What did he say?
[18:16] Okayo
In the morning, when he came home...
[18:19] (Flashback) Uchiyama
By the way, Okayo,
[18:21] (Flashback) Uchiyama
the Gion Festival is coming up.
[18:23] (Flashback) Okayo
Yes, I'm looking forward to it.
[18:25] (Flashback) Uchiyama
You should leave Kyoto for a while.
[18:27] (Flashback) Okayo
What? But I've already made
plans with my friends.
[18:30] (Flashback) Uchiyama
You have to leave.
[18:32] Ichibanboshi
He said it was dangerous to stay here?
[18:34] Okayo
I was curious as well,
so I asked him about it.
[18:37] Okayo
He said there would be a huge fire
the day of the Gion Festival.

Don't go passing out on me.
[18:44] Sakuya
We're just getting started.
[18:49] Furutaka

[18:54] Sakuya
How strange.

We've found the letters and blood-sealed
contracts you exchanged with lawless ronin.
[19:04] Ichibanboshi
A huge fire?
[19:06] Okayo
I believe he was describing arson.
[19:10] Ichibanboshi
He was working with the masked guys...
[19:13] Sakuya
...to burn down the capital?
[19:15] Furutaka
A few sacrifices must be made.
[19:18] Furutaka
It's for a great cause.
[19:20] Gyataro
Hold on a second. I can't
ignore what you just said.
[19:23] Bo
Great cause?
[19:25] Furutaka
We'll set fire to the city,
[19:26] Furutaka
and escort the emperor out of
the palace during the confusion.
[19:30] Sakuya
The emperor?
[19:31] Furutaka
To prove we're the true loyalist forces.
[19:36] Gyataro
Idiots. If you fail, you'll just
be a bunch of insurrectionists.
[19:41] Furutaka
You'll never know until you try.

it took to stop my brother,

You're not a bad sister at all.
[20:08] Ichibanboshi
I'll stop them from setting fire to the city...

[20:43] Bo
But...
[20:44] Suzuran
They're trying to burn down the city, right?
[20:47] Sogen
They have us vastly outnumbered.
[20:50] Todo
We'll send an urgent request for
reinforcements to the Aizu Clan.
[20:55] Todo
We should get ready and
head to the Shimamuraya—
[20:57] Ichibanboshi
Guys!
[21:01] All
Ichibanboshi!
[21:05] Todo
You! How dare you return
after breaking out of—
[21:06] Ichibanboshi
Wait! Listen to me.
[21:09] Ichibanboshi
They're at the Ikedaya.
[21:10] Ichibanboshi
They're planning to commit arson
tonight after meeting at the Ikedaya.
[21:14] Ichibanboshi
We gotta stop them.
[21:16] Suzuran
The Ikedaya?
[21:17] Sogen
The Shimamuraya?
[21:19] Sakuya
Why did you only just now show up?
[21:21] Ichibanboshi
I'll stop the arson.
[21:23] Ichibanboshi
I'll protect the city.
[21:25] Ichibanboshi
I'll stop Hikojiro and Tsukito.
[21:27] Ichibanboshi
I'll accept whatever punishment you've
got for me as long as it's after that!
[21:33] Ichibanboshi
I don't care if I have to commit seppuku!
[21:37] (Flashback) Tsuchimikado
He's someone who attracts
people to him and unites them.
[21:40] (Flashback) Tsuchimikado
He's a lot like Kondo Isami.
[21:52] Todo
Ichibanboshi,
[21:54] Todo
I hear your sincerity loud and clear.
[22:04] Gyataro
Our commander has returned.

[02:40] Suzuran
Which would you prefer?
[02:42] Sogen
It's equally likely that Ichibanboshi-dono
and Sakuya-dono's information are correct.
[02:49] Akira
So we need a plan that

You're taking the emperor to Hagi?
[03:52] Ronin A
Ever since the change of
government of August 18th,
[03:54] Ronin A
the Choshu haven't been
able to enter the palace.
[03:56] Ronin A
We simply need to take the emperor elsewhere.
[03:58] Ronin B
We won't let those Aizu and Satsuma
scoundrels do as they please.
[04:01] Ronin C
We'll overthrow the rotten shogunate and
protect Japan from foreign invaders.
[04:06] All
Yeah, yeah!
[04:08] All
Let's get 'em!
[04:08] Katsura
We're not getting anywhere.
[04:11] Katsura
But surely it's not necessary
to set fire to Kyoto.

That's what they want.
SIGN Kumamoto Domain Retainer

[04:18] Miyabe
The Masked Demons lent us weapons
and ammunition on the condition
[04:22] Miyabe
that we set fire to the city.
[04:24] Katsura
Those Masked Demons are working with
not just us exclusionary imperialists,
[04:28] Katsura
but the Kobu-gattai supporters as well.
[04:30] Katsura
They're neither birds
nor beasts, but cowardly bats.
[04:34] Katsura
We can't trust them.
[04:36] Miyabe
Then we'll just use them.
[04:39] Katsura
Why can't you understand
that they're using you?
[04:52] Katamori
What?
[04:53] Katamori
You won't dispatch the troops?
[04:55] Katamori
Akizuki, what is the meaning of this?
[04:57] Akizuki
If we send our men, war between the Aizu
and Choshu Domains will be unavoidable.
[05:01] Akizuki
This isn't the time for that.
[05:03] Katamori
But what if the Imperial Palace is attacked?
[05:05] Akizuki
I don't care.
[05:07] Akizuki
If it is, you'll be relieved from your
duty as Military Commissioner of Kyoto,
[05:10] Akizuki
and we'll be allowed to return to our home.
[05:13] Katamori
Don't be ridiculous. I'm sending the men.
[05:16] Akizuki
Very well.
[05:18] Akizuki
But because we took so long
to prepare for battle,
[05:21] Akizuki
the Aizu Domain will arrive
on the scene after the
[05:24] Akizuki
Shinsengumi has taken care of business.

[06:02] Furutaka
The Masked Demons...
[06:05] Furutaka
They specifically told
us to burn the city today
[06:09] Furutaka
because there would be so
many souls in one place.
[06:13] Sogen
So many souls in one place?
[06:17] Tsuchimikado

Now, this is becoming a problem.
[14:00] Katsura
Is anyone there?
[14:02] Choshu
Kogoro-sama, let me open the gate for you.
[14:05] Katsura
Don't open it! No matter
what happens, don't open the gate!
[14:09] Katsura
Our allies at the Ikedaya were
attacked by the Shinsengumi.
[14:12] Choshu
What? Then we'll send
reinforcements immediately.
[14:15] Katsura
Don't. If the Choshu head there,
it'll mean war with the Aizu Domain.
[14:19] Choshu
B-But...
[14:20] Katsura
The Choshu mustn't get involved.
[14:22] Katsura
We have no choice but to abandon our allies.
[14:25] Katsura
It's what's best for the
future of the Choshu Domain.
[14:27] Choshu
But...
[14:28] Katsura
Please. You must control yourself.
[14:31] Katsura
There's a fire spreading throughout
the city from the northeast.
[14:33] Katsura
Send men to help.
[14:35] Choshu
Yes, sir.
[14:37] Katsura
I'm counting on you.

[15:02] Miyabe

[15:27] Ichibanboshi

[15:27] Rashomaru
How many times do I have to
tell you not to call me that?
[15:35] Rashomaru
Stay out of my way, Shinsengumi.
[15:39] Ichibanboshi
Is this really what you want to do?
[15:41] Rashomaru
Everything I do is for him.
[15:44] Ichibanboshi
Who cares about "him"?
[15:48] Rashomaru
What did you say?
[15:49] Ichibanboshi
Tsukito, join the Shinsengumi.
[15:52] Ichibanboshi
Join us in atoning for your sins and live.
[15:55] Ichibanboshi
Don't give up on yourself.
[15:57] Ichibanboshi
Even a criminal can start
over in the Shinsengumi.
[15:59] Ichibanboshi
You'll have companions. You're not alone.
[16:03] Rashomaru
I knew you were stupid,
but I never knew just how stupid.
[16:08] Rashomaru
It's too late!
[16:12] Rashomaru
Do you have any idea what I've done?
[16:14] Rashomaru
How many people I've killed?
[16:19] Rashomaru
It's too late for me to start over!
[16:26] Rashomaru
Now die!
[16:42] Todo
I won't let you do that, Rashomaru.
[16:45] Rashomaru
Did you think your ordinary sword stood
a chance against my magic weapon?
[16:48] Todo
I won't let you kill Commander
Kondo Isami a second time.
[16:53] Rashomaru
He's an impostor and a criminal!
[16:55] Todo
He's not an impostor!
[16:57] Todo
The substitutes taught me
[17:00] Todo
that as long as there's someone
to uphold their sincerity,
[17:03] Todo
the Shinsengumi will rise
from the dead again and again!
[17:08] Rashomaru
Your devotion is pathetic, Todo Heisuke.
[17:11] Rashomaru
You're a true samurai.
[17:14] Rashomaru
Offer your life to the nation!
[17:21] Rashomaru
Hijikata Toshizo's substitute...
[17:24] Suzuran
Sorry.
[17:25] Bo
We're late.
[17:27] Akira
The matter at the Ikedaya has been settled.
[17:28] Gyataro
Looks like you already got the party started.
[17:32] Rashomaru
All the criminals are here.
[17:35] Rashomaru
Kondo Isami's substitute, are these the
people you called your companions?
[17:42] Ichibanboshi
I won't forgive anyone who hurts my allies.
[17:46] Ichibanboshi
If you don't stop now,
[17:48] Ichibanboshi
then I'll have to kill you.
[17:52] Rashomaru
Kondo Isami's substitute,
I won't kill you yet.
[17:57] Rashomaru
Have a taste of the loneliness
and pain I experienced!
[18:12] Ichibanboshi
Todo!
[18:14] Ichibanboshi
Hang in there.
[18:16] Todo
I'll be out of commission for a while.
[18:19] Todo
From now on, you must lead the Shinsengumi.
[18:23] Ichibanboshi
What? Who, me?
[18:25] Todo
That's right. You're their commander.
[18:28] Ichibanboshi
Wait a minute. I can't do that.
[18:31] Todo
At first, you won't.
[18:33] Todo
But as long as you go through
the motions, eventually, you'll learn.
[18:38] Todo
After all, that's what I did.
[18:41] Todo
That day, when the government
changed on August 18th,
[18:45] Todo
the commander and captains were killed,
[18:47] Todo
and I became the leader of the Shinsengumi.
[18:51] Todo
As someone who'd only been
a follower until then,
[18:54] Todo
such an important task was far beyond me.
[18:59] Todo
But as the sole survivor, I had to do it.
[19:07] Todo
Ichibanboshi, you can do it...
[19:10] Todo
No, you're the right man for the job.
[19:13] Todo
Lead the Shinsengumi.
[19:15] Ichibanboshi
Understanding stuff like royalists and
shogunate supporters is beyond me.
[19:20] Ichibanboshi
I need you to teach me.
[19:24] Todo
Don't worry about that.
[19:28] Todo
Follow the sincerity in your heart.
[19:32] Ichibanboshi
Sincerity?
[19:35] Todo
I'm counting on you.
[19:37] Ichibanboshi
Hey, Todo!
[19:40] Sogen
He's simply lost consciousness.
[19:43] Sogen
Get a door to carry him on.
[19:44] Sogen
Take him back to headquarters immediately.
[19:48] Sogen
I promise I'll heal him.
[19:51] Ichibanboshi
We're counting on you.
[19:57] Ichibanboshi
The city...
[19:58] Sakuya
The fire's spreading too quickly.
[20:00] Akira
We should split up and help fight the fire.
[20:02] Suzuran
I'll help the people who have
been burned out of their homes.
[20:07] Soldier
Well done, sirs.
[20:08] Bo
Aizu Domain, you're late.
[20:10] Soldier

What are you talking about?
[20:16] Soldier
We're samurai, not common firefight—
[20:18] Sakuya
If the direction of the wind changes,
[20:20] Sakuya
the Imperial Palace where the emperor
resides will become a sea of fire.
[20:22] Sakuya
Is that what the Aizu Domain wants?
[20:26] Soldier
To Kamogawa! Let's carry some water!
[21:05] Gyataro
Are you guys all right?
[21:07] Akira
Yeah.
[21:10] Suzuran
What a disaster.
[21:24] Girl
Mom, Mom!
[21:35] Ichibanboshi
All right.
[21:38] Sakuya
Hey, where are you going?
[21:41] Ichibanboshi
Isn't it obvious? We're gonna fix this.
[21:44] Sakuya
Fix this?
[21:45] Suzuran
Even though the city burned down?
[21:47] Ichibanboshi
It doesn't matter how it looks now.
[21:49] Ichibanboshi
It'll take some time, but if we
clean things up, it can be restored.
[21:58] Gyataro
Fine, then.
[22:00] Akira
Let's get started, too.
[22:02] Suzuran
We're starting over from scratch.
[22:04] Bo
I'm gonna get some food!
[22:08] Sakuya
Commander, give us our orders.

Ponder! A Person's Thoughts and a Demon's Thoughts
[02:30] (Flashback) Ichibanboshi
Tsukito, join the Shinsengumi.
[02:33] (Flashback) Ichibanboshi
Join us in atoning for your sins and live.
[02:36] (Flashback) Ichibanboshi
Don't give up on yourself.
[02:38] (Flashback) Ichibanboshi
Even a criminal can start
over in the Shinsengumi.
[02:40] (Flashback) Ichibanboshi
You'll have companions. You're not alone.
[02:45] Rashomaru
It's all right, Mom.
[02:48] Rashomaru
Soon our family will be together again.
[02:53] Ichibanboshi
Over here.
[02:54] Ichibanboshi
Stay calm, everyone.
[02:56] Ichibanboshi
Don't worry.
[02:57] Ichibanboshi
The Shinsengumi will defend Kyoto.
[03:08] Sogen
You're awake?
[03:12] Todo
I failed to die again.
[03:14] Sogen
Todo Heisuke regrets being the
only survivor of the Shinsengumi.
[03:22] Sogen
That's what Suzuran-dono told me.
[03:26] Todo
Maybe he's right.
[03:30] Todo
It's quiet.
[03:31] Sogen
Everyone's out,
[03:33] Sogen
on orders from Ichibanboshi-dono.
[03:37] Sogen
He said defending Kyoto
is the Shinsengumi's job.
[03:42] Todo
I see.
[03:43] Bo
Heave-ho!
[03:48] Child 1
Wow!
[03:49] Child 2
He's like a sumo wrestler!
[03:53] Chief Carpenter
Thanks. Now we'll be able to
build new houses right away.
[03:57] Gyataro
Don't thank us.
[03:58] Gyataro
All we do is break stuff.
[04:01] Gyataro
Only you carpenters can build new stuff.
[04:05] Gyataro
Chief, the rest is up to you guys.
[04:08] Chief Carpenter
You got it. We'll do our best.
[04:11] All
Thanks for the work.
[04:13] Tomekichi
Gyata-nii, we'll help, too.
[04:16] Gyataro
Thanks, I appreciate it.
[04:18] Gyataro
Get the area cleaned up.
If you find anything valuable...
[04:23] Tomekichi
We'll return it to the people who
were burned out of their homes.
[04:25] Tomekichi
Only pieces of shit loot after a fire.
[04:28] Gyataro
Yeah, you're right. I was
just thinking the same thing.
[04:33] Tomekichi
Come on, let's go.
[04:34] All
Yeah!
[04:35] Gyataro
Tomekichi's turned into a right little boss.
[04:46] Gravedigger
Aren't these guys arsonists?
[04:48] Gravedigger
Why do we have to dig graves for them?
[04:50] Suzuran
Because I believe in lending a hand
to souls that need to be mourned.
[05:01] Suzuran
This drawing again.
[05:03] Suzuran
It's the same bonji symbol.
[05:08] Ichibanboshi
We've got plenty more.
[05:10] Ichibanboshi
You don't need to worry
about being first in line.
[05:14] Man
Thank you.
[05:15] Ichibanboshi
Here.
[05:16] Sakuya
We have medicine for the injured.
[05:18] Sakuya
Let us know if you need anything.
[05:20] Ichibanboshi
Hey...
[05:22] Women
Hijikata-sama!
[05:24] Women
So handsome!
[05:24] Ichibanboshi
Why is this happening?
[05:25] Women
I'd like some, please!
[05:26] Sakuya
I don't know.
[05:27] Ichibanboshi
Man.
[05:28] Okayo
Commander?
[05:30] Ichibanboshi
Well, if it isn't Okayo-san.
[05:33] Ichibanboshi
Wait, I thought you fled to Osaka.
[05:36] Okayo
There's no way I could've left
everyone else behind to do that.
[05:40] Okayo
Let me help you.
[05:43] Ichibanboshi
Sure, I appreciate it.
[05:49] Woman
Who knew this would happen?
[05:54] Akira
You little...
[05:57] Katsura
What a shame.
[05:58] Katsura
How does a master swordsman
do such shoddy work?
[06:02] Akira
When did you get here?
[06:03] Katsura
Whoa, there.
[06:05] Katsura
You nearly sliced my nose off.
[06:08] Katsura
Let me see.
[06:10] Akira
Stay out of my way.
[06:14] Akira
You're good at that.
[06:15] Katsura
As a child, I was put up for adoption
and moved homes several times.
[06:20] Katsura
Because of that, I picked up cooking,
cleaning, and everything else.
[06:25] Katsura
That should do it.
[06:27] Katsura
Why don't we go for a walk?
[06:33] Katsura
I came to have a serious discussion today.
[06:37] Akira
Whenever you say that, it's bound
to be about something ridiculous.
[06:41] Katsura
I want you to marry me.
[06:43] Akira
See? You want to marry me?
[06:47] Akira
Wait, marry me?
[06:49] Akira
What?!
[06:50] Katsura
Is that really so shocking?
[06:52] Katsura
We already sealed the deal
last night with a kiss.
[06:58] Akira
That was just...
[07:00] Akira
This is ridiculous. I was wondering
what you'd say, but I—
[07:03] Katsura
Why is a woman like you dressing up
[07:06] Katsura
as a man and calling herself
Okita Soji of the Shinsengumi?
[07:11] Akira
I...
[07:13] Katsura
You don't have to tell me.
[07:15] Katsura
It doesn't matter who you are.
[07:18] Katsura
It doesn't matter what's in your past.
[07:20] Katsura
I love the woman standing before me now.
[07:25] Katsura
That's all that matters.
[07:27] Katsura
Will you tell me one thing, though?
[07:30] Katsura
What's your real name?
[07:39] Akira
Akira.
[07:43] Akira
Akira, written using the
character for the color white.
[07:48] Katsura
Akira...
[07:50] Katsura
It suits you. It's a beautiful name.
[07:57] Bo
That made me happy.
[08:00] Gyataro
Huh?
[08:01] Bo
That was the first time in my
life I've been praised so much.
[08:07] Gyataro
Yeah?
[08:09] Bo
I'm glad I joined the Shinsengumi.
[08:14] Bo
I'm glad I became a substitute.
[08:17] Gyataro
Me, too.
[08:18] Gyataro
Substitutes for the Shinsengumi...
[08:23] Gyataro
Now that I think about it, it's a crazy idea.
[08:26] Bo
Yeah.
[08:27] Gyataro
I thought I'd only agreed to it
to avoid being executed, but...
[08:32] Gyataro
Today, I feel like thanking
Todo for once, damn it!
[08:39] Bo
Yeah!
[08:44] Sogen
I can't believe I fell asleep.
[08:47] Sogen
Are you feeling cold?
[08:50] Todo
No, I'm fine. Sorry for waking you.
[08:53] Todo
You haven't gotten a wink of sleep
since you've been taking care of me.
[08:57] Todo
You should get some rest.
[09:04] Todo
I'm sure someone's just
bad-mouthing me again.
[09:09] Sogen
It's hard playing the villain.
[09:18] Suzuran
Wait, wait!
[09:19] Suzuran
Don't bury him yet!
[09:26] Suzuran
I knew it.
[09:31] Akira
Akira's a masculine name, isn't it?
[09:34] Katsura
It can be a man or a woman's name.
[09:38] Akira
It's the name my parents chose for a
son who'd take over the family dojo.
SIGN Motomu Dojo
[09:46] Akira
When I learned that, I figured my parents
wanted a child skilled in swordsmanship.
[09:53] Akira
So I dedicated myself to swordsmanship.
[09:56] Akira
I was desperate to make my parents happy.
[10:00] Akira
As I trained, eventually no one at
the dojo stood a chance against me,
[10:04] Akira
so I became an instructor.
[10:07] Akira
That's when I finally realized something.
[10:10] Akira
What my parents wanted
wasn't a strong daughter,
[10:15] Akira
but a son to take over the dojo.
[10:20] Katsura
You've lived a lonely life of swordsmanship.
[10:23] Akira
I'm only capable of living
in this clumsy way.
[10:26] Katsura
It must've been hard, but I know you.
[10:30] Katsura
You probably rejected even
the idea of feeling that pain
[10:33] Katsura
and swung your wooden sword every day.
[10:36] Akira
Maybe.
[10:38] Katsura
That loneliness will end.
[10:41] Katsura
If you marry me, that is.
[10:44] Akira
All you ever do is trick and
lie to people as a joke.
[10:48] Katsura
I wouldn't lie about
wanting to marry someone.
[10:51] Katsura
There's no rush to give me your answer.
[10:54] Katsura
Let's take it slow.
[10:56] Katsura
Our relationship has just begun.
[11:02] Ichibanboshi
Man, I'm beat.
[11:05] Sakuya
Dumboshi.
[11:06] Sakuya
Eat.
[11:08] Ichibanboshi
Hey, thanks.
[11:13] Ichibanboshi
You haven't eaten since this morning either.
[11:15] Sakuya
I'm fine.
[11:20] Ichibanboshi
Don't strain yourself.
[11:23] Ichibanboshi
You know, my family...
[11:26] Ichibanboshi
We lived deep in the countryside. We were poor.
[11:29] Sakuya
What are you talking about?
[11:31] Ichibanboshi
I wonder when that was...
[11:33] Ichibanboshi
There was a festival at a nearby village.
[11:37] Ichibanboshi
I'd been given some pocket money,
so I bought a steamed bun.
[11:40] Ichibanboshi
I gave it to Tsukito, but...
[11:42] (Flashback) Tsukito
Here.
[11:44] (Flashback) Ichibanboshi
I told you, that's your share.
[11:48] (Flashback) Tsukito
Food tastes better when
you're eating with someone.
[11:53] (Flashback) Ichibanboshi
Fine, then.
[11:57] Ichibanboshi
He's a nice guy.
[12:00] Ichibanboshi
He was pretending to be tough.
[12:03] Ichibanboshi
His right eyebrow rises when he lies.
[12:08] Ichibanboshi
I can always tell.
[12:10] Sakuya
Tsukito is Rashomaru now.
[12:13] Ichibanboshi
Yeah, but that Tsukito
still lives inside him.
[12:19] Ichibanboshi
I know he does.
[12:20] Sakuya
You think Tsukito will come back
if you change this shitty world?
[12:25] Ichibanboshi
That's right.
[12:27] Sakuya
You may have to kill him.
[12:29] Ichibanboshi
I'll cross that bridge when I get there.
[12:34] Sakuya
I killed my own father.
[12:38] Sakuya
I came from a samurai family.
[12:40] Sakuya
We had status and wealth, but...
[12:44] Sakuya
My father was the worst kind of person.
[12:47] Sakuya
He abused his status and was a
tyrant to those weaker than him.
[12:52] Sakuya
My mother simply endured his abuse
[12:57] Sakuya
because obeying your husband was
the duty of a samurai's wife.
[13:05] Sakuya
One night, my father became
exceptionally violent.
[13:07] Sakuya
If I didn't kill him,
he'd kill my mother, so I...
[13:14] Ichibanboshi
So you did it to protect your mother?
[13:19] Sakuya
The night I killed my father,
my mother killed herself.
[13:24] Sakuya
I killed my father, who was practically
the embodiment of this shitty world.
[13:28] Sakuya
But it means I also killed my mother,
who could only live in samurai society.
[13:42] Sakuya
I abandoned my family
[13:46] Sakuya
and became a hired killer.
[13:51] Sakuya
Hired killers say
[13:52] Sakuya
you'll see the world differently once
you've killed a thousand people.
[13:56] Ichibanboshi
That's why you've been counting them?
[14:00] Ichibanboshi
Has the world you see changed?
[14:04] Ichibanboshi
You killed over a thousand yesterday.
[14:13] Ichibanboshi
I see. In that case, instead of
counting the people you've killed,
[14:17] Ichibanboshi
count the people you've saved from now on.
[14:24] Sakuya
I'll consider it.
[14:26] Ichibanboshi
Hey, that's the first time
I've seen you smile.
[14:29] Sakuya
Shut up. I didn't smile.
[14:30] Ichibanboshi
Wow, what a rare sight.
[14:31] Ichibanboshi
Come on, smile again.
[14:31] Sakuya
I didn't smile.
[14:33] Ichibanboshi
Yeah, you did.

[14:48] Chief Carpenter
We'll get this back to normal right quick.
[14:51] Townsfolk 1
That's the Shinsengumi
everyone's talking about.
[14:53] Townsfolk 2
They helped like mad during the fire.
[14:58] City Girl 1
Hijikata-san's such a fine man.
[15:01] City Girl 2
I think I prefer Okita-san.
[15:04] City Girl 2
He's got a pretty face like a girl,
[15:06] City Girl 2
but he's as strong as an ogre
with a sword in his hands.
[15:13] Tsuchimikado
The Shinsengumi has become rather popular
in the wake of the Ikedaya incident.
[15:20] Tsuchimikado
I wondered how that group
of criminals would turn out,
[15:26] Tsuchimikado
but it would seem that Todo Heisuke and
Matsudaira Katamori weren't wrong about them.
[15:31] Rashomaru
Several of our agents were
foiled and failed to set fires.
[15:35] Rashomaru
We failed to gather enough
souls for the ritual.
[15:40] Tsuchimikado
No, if anything, we should be glad to
have this opportunity to test our plan.
[15:45] Rashomaru
Our ambition shall be fulfilled soon.
[15:49] Tsuchimikado
Rashomaru, as you have killed your
own mother and become a demon,
[15:54] Tsuchimikado
I have bestowed upon you the
highest responsibility.
[15:57] Rashomaru
Yes, my lord.
[15:59] Tsuchimikado
By accepting the corruption of this world,
[16:02] Tsuchimikado
you can become the foundation
of this nation's salvation.
[16:06] Tsuchimikado
Therefore, you must kill your brother.
[16:11] Tsuchimikado
It is the final step.
[16:14] Tsuchimikado
But first, there's one other obstacle
the stars have told us to eliminate.
[16:25] Shozan
So the moon has brought
demons to my doorstep.
[16:32] Rashomaru
Rashomaru, Captain of the Masked Demons,
is here to take your life, Sakuma Shozan.
[16:40] Shozan
That's not the first time
someone's said that to me.
[16:44] Shozan
The night is long. Let's have a chat.
[16:48] Shozan
Are those the magical swords
I've heard so much about?
[16:51] Shozan
How do they work?
[16:53] Shozan
Would you allow me to take a look?
[16:55] Rashomaru
You can see how they work with your own body.
[16:58] Shozan
What is your master planning?
[17:02] Shozan
Why do you give magic swords to forces
both for and against the shogunate?
[17:07] Shozan
Are you weapons dealers motivated by money?
[17:09] Shozan
Or are you trying to start a civil war?
[17:11] Rashomaru
Don't belittle him!
[17:14] Shozan
How can I not when I know
so little about him?
[17:18] Shozan
Though it'd be a different story if you'd
tell me about your master's noble purpose.
[17:25] Rashomaru
You can take it with you to the grave.
[17:29] (Flashback) Tsuchimikado
Our country is protected by the
souls of those who love it.
[17:35] (Flashback) Tsuchimikado
We transform those souls into swords
so we can defeat the foreigners.
[17:39] (Flashback) Tsuchimikado
Using spells passed down since ancient times,
[17:42] (Flashback) Tsuchimikado
protective deities of the Underworld
will defeat the foreigners
[17:48] (Flashback) Tsuchimikado
and bring eternal prosperity to our nation.
[17:52] (Flashback) Tsuchimikado
Rashomaru, your sins are hereby erased.
[17:57] (Flashback) Tsuchimikado
Together, let us save the fatherland.
[18:03] Shozan
How delightful.
[18:05] Shozan
He intends to protect this
country using mysterious spells?
[18:08] Rashomaru
The spineless Tokugawa and the Satcho who
suck up to foreign nations are mere pawns.
[18:15] Rashomaru
Japan will force all nations to submit.
[18:18] Rashomaru
The world will kneel before
his type-zero weapon!
[18:25] Shozan
This is why your plan will never work.
[18:27] Shozan
Your thinking is too old-fashioned.
[18:32] Shozan
Sooner or later, this country will change.
[18:35] Shozan
The shogunate will fall,
and the samurai will disappear.
[18:39] Shozan
When the new world arrives,
[18:42] Shozan
what will matter most is
what you've got up here.
[18:45] Shozan
We won't need people who wait
for their master's orders.
[18:49] Shozan
The ability to consider for
yourself what you think
[18:52] Shozan
and what you want to do
will become essential.
[18:55] Shozan
You fools!
[18:59] Shozan
You called yourself Rashomaru, didn't you?
[19:00] Shozan
What do you want to do?
[19:03] Rashomaru
Whatever he—
[19:05] Shozan
Think for yourself!
[19:19] Rashomaru
Too late.
[19:31] Rashomaru
It's too late.
[19:45] Rashomaru
After all, I've already...
[19:53] Rashomaru
become a demon.
[20:08] Todo
You're saying these drawings show
what the Masked Demons are planning?
[20:13] Suzuran
No, we don't know that yet.
[20:17] Suzuran
I thought the drawing we
found at the Shirakawaya
[20:19] Suzuran
and the drawing we found at the Shimamuraya
[20:22] Suzuran
showed the locations they
planned to set fire to.
[20:26] Suzuran
We did, in fact, find Masked
Demons at Seimei Shrine, too.
[20:30] Sogen
But it's a bit odd for a map.
[20:34] Sogen
What are these lines?
[20:36] Suzuran
Exactly. It's full of mysteries.
[20:42] Todo
There's not much we can say
without more information.
[20:45] Suzuran
Yeah, so I thought we could
start by talking to those two.
[20:51] Sogen
If we showed these to Ichibanboshi-dono,
he'd immediately call for a blitzing.
[20:56] Todo
Yeah, it's a bad habit of his.
[20:59] Suzuran
And his strength, too.
[21:05] Todo
In any case, Suzuran, I'll leave this
matter in your hands for the time being.
[21:10] Todo
Look into the details.
[21:12] Todo
There could be other drawings.
[21:13] Suzuran
Got it. I'll follow all the leads I can find.
[21:17] Ichibanboshi
Shozan-sensei's dead?
[21:20] Katamori
Last night, he died after
someone attacked him.
[21:24] Ichibanboshi
But...
[21:26] Sakuya
Who killed him?
[21:27] Akizuki
We don't know.
[21:29] Akizuki
He had a lot of enemies, so it will
difficult to determine who killed him.
[21:35] Ichibanboshi
There was still so much
I wanted to learn from him.

I didn't call the Shinsengumi here
just so I could give you the news.

[21:47] Akizuki
Yes, sir.
[21:51] Ichibanboshi
An ukiyo-e painting?
[21:52] Sakuya
Demons?
[21:54] Katamori
The message Shozan-sensei left for us
[21:56] Katamori
was probably that the Masked Demons'
next goal is to blow up foreign ships.
[22:03] Katamori
I command the Shinsengumi...
[22:05] Katamori
to head to Sakai Port in Osaka.

[02:46] Katamori
The message Shozan-sensei left for us
[02:48] Katamori
was probably that the Masked Demons'
next goal is to blow up foreign ships.
[02:55] Katamori
I command the Shinsengumi...
[02:57] Katamori

[03:04] Ichibanboshi
Damn, the black ships are awesome.
[03:08] Ichibanboshi
That thing is crazy, huh?
SIGN Osaka
Sakai Port
[03:12] Ichibanboshi
I'm so hype!
[03:14] Sakuya
Shut up, Dumboshi. We're here
to inspect the port.
[03:17] Ichibanboshi
Yeah, that's what I'm doing.
[03:20] Sakuya
There's a lot we need to learn,
[03:22] Sakuya
like the ships' locations, the port's layout,
and the number of guards.
[03:28] Sakuya
You child...
[03:28] Akira
Sakuya, there's no rush.
[03:31] Akira
We'll do whatever Ichibanboshi can't.
[03:34] Akira
We can split responsibilities.
[03:36] Sakuya
Nothing good will come from babying him.
[03:39] Gyataro
Check out that flamboyant flag.
[03:43] Sogen
The stars and stripes.
[03:45] Sogen
That's the American flag.
[03:48] Bo
Why do the Masked Demons want
to blow up a black ship?
[03:51] Suzuran
It would start a war with the Americans.
[03:53] Sogen
That may be their goal.
[03:56] Sogen
Even if a war doesn't break out, it would
certainly serve as a provocation.
[04:00] Ichibanboshi
I wanna travel on this thing.
[04:03] Ichibanboshi
I want my own black ship.
[04:06] Gyataro
Are the Masked Demons trying
to hijack a black ship?
[04:09] Bo
Steal a black ship?
[04:11] Suzuran
That's too ridiculous to consider.

The death of Sakuma Shozan, agent of

[04:18] Kusaka
is an opportunity for us
to expel the foreigners.
[04:19] Kusaka

[04:21] Clan Member A
Aye, we agree.
[04:23] Clan Member B
Give the word.
SIGN Lord of the Domain

[04:25] Takachika
I hear you loud and clear.
[04:29] Takachika
The hearts of the Choshu

[04:33] Takachika
That being the case...
[04:35] Katsura
Wait.
[04:37] Kusaka
Katsura-dono, you're back?
[04:39] Katsura
We don't have the slightest
chance of winning a war
[04:42] Katsura
against foreign nations if we start one now.
[04:44] Clan Member C
What are you talking about?
[04:45] Clan Member D
Have you lost your nerve, Katsura?
[04:47] Katsura
Have you already forgotten
about the Shimonoseki campaign?
[04:50] Katsura
That terrible war in which we were
crushed due to our outdated armaments?
[04:56] Katsura
Right now, learning the
technology of foreign nations
[04:58] Katsura
and increasing our nation's
strength come first.
[05:01] Katsura
Taking action to expel foreigners when
it would only impoverish our domain
[05:04] Katsura
is out of the question.
[05:06] Kusaka
B-But...
[05:07] Takachika
Kogoro's right. Fighting a war when you
lack military force is foolishness.
[05:13] Takachika
That's the end of this discussion.
[05:21] Clan Member A
Damn that weasel Katsura.
[05:22] Clan Member B
He's got a way with words, and he's
using it to sweet-talk Takachika-sama.
[05:27] Kusaka
Let him talk.
[05:28] Kusaka
Once Maki Izumi-sama carries out his plan,
[05:30] Kusaka
we'll have our opportunity
to expel the foreigners.
[05:33] Kusaka
Katsura won't be able to do anything then.
[05:39] Gyataro
Osaka's got the best drinks and women.
[05:43] Bo
Lotsa tasty food!
[05:45] Gyataro
Not only that, but the Aizu
Domain's paying for everything.
[05:47] Gyataro
What could be better than that?
[05:49] Bo
The best.
[05:54] Gyataro
What's going on?
[05:55] Bo
Could be the Masked Demons.
[05:57] Gyataro
Should we go check it out?
[06:00] Sailor A
Did you get it?
[06:02] Sailor A
Have you got any questions?
[06:04] Sogen
Thank you for answering my question.
[06:08] Sogen
I appreciate it.
[06:12] Suzuran
Wow, Sogen-chan.
You're totally fluent in American.
[06:17] Akira
What did the sailors say?
[06:18] Sogen
They did indeed receive a bomb
threat against the black ships.
[06:23] Suzuran
So the message was right.
[06:25] Akira
I suppose that's to be
expected from Shozan-sensei.
[06:27] Sogen
But for them, that type of sabotage
and terrorism is a daily occurrence.
[06:34] Sogen
They didn't pay much mind to it.
[06:36] Suzuran
What? Does that mean the Masked
Demons aren't their only enemies?
[06:41] Akira
I see.
[06:44] Ichibanboshi
Hey, do you know a guy named Sakamoto Ryoma?
[06:48] Sakuya
Ryoma is a ronin formerly of the Tosa Domain.
[06:51] Sakuya
What about him?
[06:52] Ichibanboshi
Shozan-sensei told me once
that Ryoma's a lot like me.
[06:57] (Flashback) Shozan
There's someone I want you to meet.
[07:00] (Flashback) Shozan
His name is Sakamoto Ryoma.
[07:03] (Flashback) Ichibanboshi
Ryoma? That's a weird name.
[07:06] (Flashback) Shozan
I'm sure you and he will get along.
[07:12] Ichibanboshi
Shozan-sensei's dead, but I'd
still like to meet Ryoma.
[07:17] Ichibanboshi
I wonder what he's up to now.
[07:18] Sakuya
I heard Ryoma's working with Katsu Kaishu
and the Kobe Naval Training Center
[07:22] Sakuya
to conduct trade with foreign nations.
[07:25] Ichibanboshi
Which means he rides those black ships?
[07:28] Ichibanboshi
Wow, I wanna meet him even more now.
[07:31] Sakuya
A masterless samurai like Ryoma
and the Shinsengumi are enemies.
[07:34] Ichibanboshi
What? Seriously?
[07:36] Sakuya
If you ever met, you'd cross swords.
[07:39] Ichibanboshi
Well, that's not good.
[07:44] Gyataro
The hell is that?
[07:45] Bo
A turtle?
[07:46] Fisherman A
I dunno.
[07:48] Fisherman A
We thought it was a big one,
[07:49] Fisherman A
so we threw some bait in the
water but couldn't catch it.
[07:51] Fisherman B
It's been there since this morning.
[07:53] Sakuya
What's going on?
[07:53] Gyataro
That.
[07:55] Ichibanboshi
For real? I thought it'd
be the Masked Demons.
[07:59] Sogen
Shall we try blowing it up?
[08:01] Suzuran
Right off the bat?
[08:02] Suzuran
I guess I've heard of catching
fish that way, though.
[08:07] Akira
Look. It's starting to move.
[08:08] Bo
Is it going to the Dragon Palace?
[08:10] Sakuya
It's heading towards the black ship.
[08:25] Ichibanboshi
It's the Masked Demons.
[08:27] Gyataro
I thought this might happen.
[08:30] Gyataro
Ta-dah!
[08:32] Gyataro
I'll use this long-range firearm
Sogen-sensei made for me.
[08:37] Gyataro
That's one down!
[08:40] Gyataro
Come on, come on, come on!
[08:44] Gyataro
I can't hit 'em!
[08:51] Sailor A
You're a demon...
[08:54] Rashomaru
Your soul cannot be used as our weapons.
[09:12] Ichibanboshi
The black ship...
[09:13] Sakuya
...has been stolen?
[09:19] Ichibanboshi
Hold it right there.
[09:21] Ichibanboshi
We'll use those to go after them.
[09:23] Sakuya
That won't be possible in those little boats.
[09:25] Ichibanboshi
It is if you try hard enough.
[09:26] Akira
It's impossible.
[09:27] Gyataro
It's impossible.
[09:28] Bo
Impossible.
[09:29] Sogen
It's impossible.
[09:30] Suzuran
Impossible.
[09:31] Ichibanboshi
Then what are we supposed to do?
[09:33] Ichibanboshi
They're gonna destroy that black ship.
[09:36] Rashomaru
Fire.
[09:43] Townsfolk A
The Americans are attacking!
[09:45] Townsfolk B
Help!
[09:46] Townsfolk C
The foreigners are attacking!
[09:47] Sakuya
This isn't good.
[09:48] Sakuya
The people who don't know what's going on
think the Americans are firing on them.
[09:53] Gyataro
So they're not gonna blow up the black ship?
[09:56] Akira
Was their plan to fire on the port?
[09:58] Ichibanboshi
We've gotta go after them in a boat.
[10:01] Sakuya
Don't bother.
[10:02] Sakuya
Japan doesn't have a boat that
can catch up to a black ship.
[10:04] Sogen
Actually, it does.
[10:09] Rashomaru
Cease fire.
[10:11] Rashomaru
Now we wait.
[10:14] Rashomaru
Sail along the starboard coast.
[10:16] Masked Demon A
Yes, sir.
[10:19] Sogen
Several years ago, an electric screw
ship was tested here in the Osaka Bay.
[10:25] Sogen
It was Sakuma Shozan-sensei who invented it.
[10:28] Gyataro
Whoa, he was one impressive scholar.
[10:32] Sogen
Sakuma Shozan was one of the
most brilliant men in the world.
[10:37] Sogen
And the product of his genius...
[10:42] Sogen
sleeps here.
[10:48] Sakuya
How does it work?
[10:50] Sogen
This project was put on hold due to a
lack of the zinc it required to operate.
[10:56] Gyataro
Then we can't use it.
[10:59] Sogen
I wouldn't say that.
[11:01] Sogen
Fortunately, there's another genius
on par with Shozan right here.
[11:06] Suzuran
Wow, you really called yourself a genius.
[11:08] Sogen
Suzuran-dono, your staff.
[11:10] Suzuran
Huh? This thing?
[11:24] Gyataro
It's so fast!
[11:28] Sakuya
Sogen, you might actually be a genius.
[11:31] Sogen
A victory for science.
[11:33] Akira
We haven't won yet.
[11:35] Akira
Suzuran, can you steer this thing?
[11:37] Suzuran
You got it.
[11:43] Maksed Demon A
What is that?
[11:44] Rashomaru
What is it?
[11:45] Maksed Demon A
It's the Shinsengumi.
[11:48] Rashomaru
There's no way they can catch
up to us in that thing.
[11:51] Ichibanboshi
It's Tsukito.
[11:52] Akira
What?
[11:52] Ichibanboshi
He's on the black ship.
Let's catch up to them.
[11:54] Sakuya
How are we going to get aboard the
black ship once we catch up to it?
[11:58] Sogen
I... don't know the answer to that question.
[12:02] Gyataro
What?
[12:03] Akira
If we crash into the black ship,
we'll torn apart.
[12:07] Rashomaru
How? How did they catch up?
[12:10] Masked Demon A
We'll increase our speed.
[12:11] Rashomaru
Hard starboard.
[12:13] Rashomaru
Prepare to fire.
[12:15] Rashomaru
We'll sink them.
[12:17] Ichibanboshi
Go!
[12:19] Gyataro
This isn't good! We gotta stop!
[12:20] Bo
We're gonna crash!
[12:22] Suzuran
Huh? What? What should I do?
[12:23] Ichibanboshi
Keep going!
[12:25] Gyataro
Stop, stop!
[12:27] Suzuran
What? Which is it?
[12:31] Sakuya
Evasive action!
[12:32] Suzuran
Come on!
[12:34] Rashomaru
Sink them.
[12:41] Suzuran
What are we gonna do about this?
[12:44] Ichibanboshi
We've got this! Let's blitz 'em!
[12:46] Suzuran
Uh, Ichibanboshi-chan?!
[12:48] Rashomaru
This ends now.
[12:52] Ichibanboshi
Here it comes.
[13:01] Suzuran
Ow...

We should go, too.
[13:41] Sogen
I've already adjusted the gunpowder in these.
[13:43] Sogen
They won't kill you.
[13:46] Gyataro
We won't let you guys
keep screwing things up.
[13:50] Gyataro
Right, Bo?
[13:54] Gyataro
Whoa, he's already pissed off.
[13:57] Gyataro
I gotta keep up.
[13:59] Ichibanboshi
Wait!
[14:00] Ichibanboshi
Answer me.
[14:02] Ichibanboshi
Did you kill Shozan-sensei?
[14:06] Rashomaru
That old man?
[14:08] Rashomaru
That's right. I killed him with this sword.
[14:12] Ichibanboshi
First you hurt Todo,
then you killed Shozan-sensei.
[14:16] Ichibanboshi
Rashomaru, I'll make you pay for this.
[14:24] Rashomaru
Are you all bark and no bite, Kondo Isami?
[14:27] Rashomaru
So weak.
[14:29] Rashomaru
Die!
[14:32] Ichibanboshi
You can't kill me!
[14:40] Sogen
Huh? They're acting strange.
[14:42] Suzuran
What's going on?
[14:47] Gyataro
Hey, what's gotten into them?
[14:49] Bo
Are they running away?
[14:52] Sakuya
What's that?
[14:54] Sakuya
It's the Choshu.
[15:02] Maki
Aim for the black ship.
[15:04] Maki
Fire.
[15:14] Gyataro
This isn't good.
[15:19] Sakuya
The Masked Demons are fleeing.
[15:21] Akira
Is everyone all right?
[15:22] Sogen
Those Armstrong guns' strength
and range are astonishing.
[15:27] Suzuran
This is no time to stand
around being impressed.
[15:31] Ichibanboshi
What the hell?
[15:33] Ichibanboshi
What the hell are those?
[15:36] Rashomaru
The type-zero weapon.
[15:38] Rashomaru
The power he created.
[15:40] Rashomaru
The power of Japan.
[15:42] Masked Demon A
The black ship will be sunk as planned.
[15:45] Rashomaru
I know.
[15:48] Ichibanboshi
I won't let you do that!
[15:52] Rashomaru
Stay out of my way.
[15:57] Masked Demon B
Rashomaru-sama, you should return quickly.
[15:59] Townsfolk A
The black ship...
[16:01] Townsfolk B
Cannons don't work against them, right?
[16:04] Townsfolk C
No, look.
[16:10] Maki
It's stronger than I expected.
[16:13] Maki
With the type-zero weapon, not even the
Satsuma or Tokugawa could stand against us.
[16:17] Maki
No, we could even fight on equal
footing with Western forces.
[16:26] Akira
I see. So this is what
the Masked Demons wanted.
[16:29] Sakuya
They wanted to show the people a weapon
that could destroy a black ship.
[16:33] Sogen
Not only that, but by driving the black
ship back after it fired on the coast,
[16:39] Sogen
they could encourage people's
enthusiasm for war.
[16:41] Suzuran
How convenient for those
who want to start a war.
[16:44] Gyataro
We gotta get out of here!
[16:49] Rashomaru
What we need is power! Strength!
[16:53] Rashomaru
The weak will always be crushed underfoot.
[16:56] Ichibanboshi
Sounds like you've forgotten about Ma and Pa!
[17:01] Rashomaru
They were weaklings crushed underfoot.
[17:04] Ichibanboshi
What are you talking about?
[17:05] Ichibanboshi
Our parents, who sacrificed their own
lives to save us, were truly strong.
[17:10] Ichibanboshi
That's what you call true strength, dumbass!
[17:23] (Flashback) Masked Man
Boy, step forward.
[17:26] (Flashback) Masked Man
Step forward.
[17:34] (Flashback) Masked Man
Use that sword to kill your mother.
[17:36] (Flashback) Masked Man
Do it, and you'll be spared.
[17:57] Rashomaru
You're wrong! No, no, no!
[18:03] Rashomaru
Ma and Pa died because they were weak.
[18:06] Rashomaru
They wouldn't have died if they were strong.
[18:09] Rashomaru
I wouldn't have had to kill them.
[18:14] Ichibanboshi
You're lying.
[18:15] Rashomaru
What?
[18:17] Ichibanboshi
Ever since you were little,
you'd do this when you lied.
[18:24] Ichibanboshi
I know now that you didn't kill Ma.
[18:28] Ichibanboshi
And the old Tsukito is still inside you.
[18:33] Rashomaru
Shut up! Don't say such annoying things.
[18:41] Ichibanboshi
Join the Shinsengumi, Tsukito.
[18:43] Ichibanboshi
I'll show you the right way.
[18:44] Rashomaru
He gave me the noble name Rashomaru.
[18:56] Rashomaru
Damn it...
[19:30] Ichibanboshi
Tsukito!
[19:34] Ichibanboshi
Tsukito!
[20:02] Ichibanboshi
Are you okay?
[20:14] Rashomaru
Why did you save me?
[20:18] Ichibanboshi
I saved Tsukito.
[20:22] Ichibanboshi
Rashomaru sank into the sea and died.
[20:26] Rashomaru
What? What happened to all the
intensity you had until a moment ago?
[20:31] Ichibanboshi
I won't kill you.
[20:34] Ichibanboshi
I'm not letting you take
the easy way out by dying.
[20:37] Ichibanboshi
Do everything you can to atone.
[20:39] Ichibanboshi
Spend the rest of your life making up for it.
[20:43] Rashomaru
Why won't you leave me alone?
[20:48] Ichibanboshi
Tsukito, no matter what happens,
you're number one to me.
[21:01] Rashomaru
You never knew how to finish anything off.
[21:11] Akira
Ichibanboshi!
[21:12] Gyataro
Are you okay?
[21:22] Katsura
What? Kusaka's marching on Kyoto?
[21:25] Subordinate A
Maki Izumi-sama used a new type of cannon
to sink a black ship in Osaka Bay,
[21:30] Subordinate A
and Kusaka-sama appears
to be following his lead.
[21:33] Katsura
What about their lord?
[21:35] Subordinate A
Takachika-sama has also recognized
the power of the zero-type weapon
[21:38] Subordinate A
and has granted his forces
permission to march.
[21:40] Katsura
The Masked Demons are like
a disease consuming Japan.
[21:45] Katsura
I'm going after Kusaka.
[21:47] Katsura
If Kyoto turns into a battlefield,
[21:49] Katsura
we'll see more casualties
than we did during the fire.
[21:55] Tsuchimikado
I've already given spirit
weapons to the Choshu army.
[22:00] Tsuchimikado
Our nation, which has been overrun
by foreigners, will be reborn.
[22:06] Tsuchimikado
The world will kneel before
our zero-type weapon.

[00:16] Rashomaru
Ma and Pa died because they were weak.
[00:20] Rashomaru
They wouldn't have died if they were strong.
[00:23] Rashomaru
I wouldn't have had to kill them.
[00:26] Ichibanboshi
You're lying.
[00:28] Rashomaru
What?
[00:29] Ichibanboshi
Ever since you were little,
you'd do this when you lied.
[00:34] Ichibanboshi
I know now that you didn't kill Ma.
[00:38] Maki
It's stronger than I expected.
[00:41] Maki
With the type-zero weapon, not even the
Satsuma or Tokugawa could stand against us.
[00:46] Maki
No, we could even fight on equal
footing with Western forces.
[00:51] Akira
I see. So this is what
the Masked Demons wanted.
[00:54] Sakuya
They wanted to show the people a weapon
that could destroy a black ship.
[00:59] Sogen
Not only that, but by driving the black
ship back after it fired on the coast,
[01:04] Sogen
they could encourage people's
enthusiasm for war.
[01:07] Suzuran
How convenient for those
who want to start a war.

Come on, gather round.
[02:45] Newsie
If you haven't heard already,
then you're behind the times.
[02:47] Newsie
The Choshu sank a black
ship at the Osaka Harbor.
[02:52] Newsie
If you wanna know more, buy a paper.
[02:55] Townsfolk A
I heard the Choshu used
some kind of crazy cannon.
[02:58] Townsfolk B
I bet we could beat foreign nations
if we went to war with them now.
[03:01] Townsfolk C
For sure.
[03:03] Tomekichi
Have you guys forgotten about
what happened at the Ikedaya?
[03:07] Tomekichi
Do you have any idea how much
trouble the Choshu have—
[03:09] Townsfolk D
I heard there were Satsuma and
Tosa ronin at the Ikedaya.
[03:13] Townfolk E
Everyone's unhappy with
those Shogunate cowards.
[03:15] Tomekichi
If we go to war, we'll have even more orphans.
[03:18] Tomekichi
Widows, too.
[03:21] Tomekichi
We shouldn't be making

Let go of me, Bo!
[03:30] Bo
Not yet.
[03:32] Gyataro
We understand how you feel.
[03:34] Akira
But you shouldn't strain yourself right now.
[03:35] Akira
Your wounds will open back up.
[03:37] Sogen
As a doctor, I can't allow you to go.
[03:40] Suzuran
You wouldn't be able to do
anything even if you left now.
[03:43] Sakuya
Let Dumboshi handle this.
[03:46] Ichibanboshi
Yeah, yeah.
[03:47] Sakuya
I understand how you feel,
but you'll have to put up with it.
[03:49] Ichibanboshi
What was that?
[03:52] Todo
You can't seriously expect
me to laze around in bed
[03:55] Todo
when the Choshu army is approaching.
[03:57] Sogen
Todo-dono, right now there's something
else we should be discussing instead.
[04:02] Suzuran
Yeah, let's tell the others. Right?
[04:04] Ichibanboshi
Tell us what?
[04:07] Todo
These are drawings the Masked Demons had.
[04:10] Sogen
Suzuran-dono and I have been
investigating the matter.
[04:15] Akira
The drawing Sakuya found
at the Shimamuraya...
[04:19] Sakuya
Was a transparency that matched
a map of Seimei Shrine.
[04:24] Ichibanboshi
We gotta blitz 'em.
[04:27] Bo
Blitz who?
[04:30] Ichibanboshi
Huh? Uh...
[04:31] Ichibanboshi
You know, right here.
[04:33] Sakuya
And where is that?
[04:36] Todo
I thought you might say that, so we've
been secretly investigating the matter.
[04:41] Suzuran
The Choshu and Masked Demons are
planning something with these drawings.
[04:45] Suzuran
We know that for certain, but...
[04:47] Sogen
We're still lacking conclusive evidence.
[04:50] Ichibanboshi
Talking about it won't get us anywhere.
[04:53] Ichibanboshi
If we're not sure what they mean, then we
just need to gather more of these drawings.
[04:56] Ichibanboshi
Let's move.
[04:58] Ichibanboshi
If we work together, we can move forward.
[05:01] Ichibanboshi
We're sure to end up somewhere.
[05:05] Gyataro
Listen to you. You sound
like a real commander.
[05:07] Bo
Yeah.
[05:08] Akira
I might be able to figure
something out with three days.
[05:12] Gyataro
Come to think of it, didn't you get
information on the Masuya before?
[05:16] Bo
Who's your source?
[05:18] Akira
Who cares who my source is?
[05:21] Suzuran
So it's a man.
[05:22] Gyataro
What?
[05:23] Bo
Huh?
[05:23] Akira
N-No!
[05:25] Suzuran
You're not a very good liar.
[05:27] Suzuran
Don't worry, I won't dig any deeper.
[05:31] Gyataro
Normally you speak so clearly.
[05:42] Ichibanboshi
Tsukito!
[05:45] Ichibanboshi
Rashomaru sank into the sea and died.
[05:49] (Flashback) Rashomaru
Why won't you leave me alone?
[05:54] (Flashback) Ichibanboshi
Tsukito, no matter what happens,
you're number one to me.
[06:42] Tsuchimikado
You're crying.
[06:45] Tsuchimikado
Who and what are those tears for?
[06:50] Rashomaru
I kept swinging my sword with
these bloodstained hands
[06:53] Rashomaru
because I believed there
was no turning back now.
[06:57] Rashomaru
I sought only strength.
[07:00] Rashomaru
But I was just trying to
make myself feel better.
[07:04] Tsuchimikado
So you've realized this isn't
the path you believe in.
[07:09] Rashomaru
There's someone I want to live beside,
even if I have to spend
[07:13] Rashomaru
the rest of my life atoning.
[07:16] Tsuchimikado
Rashomaru, as you know, I don't
chase after those who leave me.
[07:24] Rashomaru
I won't forget how you raised me.
[07:31] Tsuchimikado
I won't chase after you.
[07:34] Tsuchimikado
After all, your path is
determined by the stars.
[07:39] Rashomaru
What?
[07:52] Tsuchimikado
As creatures who live on
this earth bathed in light,
[07:56] Tsuchimikado
we cannot escape the fates
determined by the stars.
[07:59] Tsuchimikado
Rashomaru, it would seem that it is your
destiny to fulfill our noble purpose.
[08:09] Rashomaru
No... But why...
[08:26] Akira
Katsura, the information you give
me is both prompt and accurate.
[08:30] Akira
I appreciate your help, but...
[08:34] Katsura
People are suspicious of our secret meetings?
[08:37] Akira
Indeed. I won't be able to hide
them from my companions any longer.
[08:41] Katsura
Be honest and tell them you're seeing a man.
[08:44] Akira
A m-man?
[08:46] Katsura
That aside, the Choshu Domain's been acting
strangely since the black ship was sunk.
[08:55] Katsura
Just the other day...
SIGN Choshu Stronghold Mt. Tenno
[08:59] (Flashback) Maki
Our enemies are the Aizu
and Satsuma scoundrels.
[09:01] (Flashback) Kusaka
And the Shinsengumi.
[09:03] (Flashback) Maki
This is a great opportunity for us.
[09:06] (Flashback) All
Yeah!
[09:07] (Flashback) Katsura
Out of the way. Move.
[09:10] (Flashback) Katsura
Kusaka! Maki-dono! What are you thinking?
[09:14] (Flashback) Maki
We're going to drive off
the foreigners using the
[09:16] (Flashback) Maki
zero-type weapon for
our emperor, who despises them.
[09:19] (Flashback) Kusaka
We're going to defend the imperial palace.
[09:22] (Flashback) Katsura
If you start a war at the palace now,
[09:24] (Flashback) Katsura
you'll be turning your
weapons against the emperor.
[09:26] (Flashback) Katsura
The Choshu will become the emperor's enemy.
[09:29] (Flashback) Kusaka
Silence, you coward.
[09:32] (Flashback) Maki
I doubt you're aware,
[09:34] (Flashback) Maki
but a member of the imperial court
provided us with weapons and ammunition.
[09:38] (Flashback) Maki
It proves the emperor understands us.
[09:43] (Flashback) All
Yeah!
[09:45] (Flashback) Katsura
The imperial court?
[09:47] Akira
That's ridiculous.
[09:49] Akira
The imperial palace provided
them with weapons?
[09:51] Katsura
Apparently they intend to tear apart
Kyoto from the inside as well.
[09:55] Akira
The Choshu, the Masked Demons,
and the mysterious traitor...
[10:00] Katsura
There's no way I'm helping
the Choshu with their war.
[10:03] Katsura
Let me be your man for a while.
[10:07] Akira
My man?
[10:11] Katamori
There's a traitor in the imperial court?
[10:14] Akizuki
Todo, control yourself.
[10:16] Akizuki
Casting suspicion on the imperial
court is a serious accusation.
[10:19] Todo
I know that.
[10:21] Todo
But if there's a traitor,
we must act accordingly.
[10:28] Akizuki
My lord, what shall we do?
[10:32] Katamori
Don't tell anyone about this. And Todo...
[10:36] Todo
Yes, my lord?
[10:37] Katamori
You're wounded.
[10:38] Katamori
While the Shinsengumi heads into battle,
I'd like you to guard the palace.
[10:43] Todo
Understood.
[10:44] Katamori
This war will determine Japan's future.
[10:48] Katamori
We can't afford to lose.
[11:17] Gyataro
All right!
[11:18] Bo
We found...
[11:19] Sakuya
...a new...
[11:19] Ichibanboshi
...drawing!
[11:23] Suzuran
Wow, we gathered a bunch of them.
[11:26] Sogen
Excluding duplicates, there are five types.
[11:29] Gyataro
So one really was a map of Seimei Shrine.
[11:33] Bo
Are the other drawings of shrines, too?
[11:35] Suzuran
How many shrines do you
think there are in Kyoto?
[11:37] Sakuya
It'll be impossible to identify them.
[11:42] Akira
Guys, there's something I need to tell you.
[11:45] Katsura
The Choshu Domain's main
force is at Mt. Tenno.
[11:50] Katsura
This is confidential information,
[11:54] Katsura
but the Choshu army is planning
to head from Mt. Tenno
[11:56] Katsura
to Iwashimizu Hachimangu Shrine.
[11:58] Todo
Who are you?
[12:00] Suzuran
Iwashimizu...
[12:02] Suzuran
That's it.
[12:03] Akira
Wait. He's on our side.
[12:05] Katsura
I'm her man.
[12:07] Akira
Yes, he's—no! This is no time for jokes!
[12:10] Katsura
I haven't introduced myself yet.
I'm Katsura Kogoro.
[12:13] Bo
Katsura of the Choshu Domain.
[12:16] Gyataro
Hold on, you're an enemy of the Shinsengumi.
[12:19] Gyataro
I'm amazed you came to our headquarters.
[12:24] Sakuya
Now that you've heard our discussion,
I can't let you leave alive.
[12:27] Ichibanboshi
Wait. Let's hear what he has to say.
[12:30] Ichibanboshi
After all, he's Akira's man.
[12:31] Akira
This is a misunderstanding!
[12:34] Katsura
I'm impressed, commander of the Shinsengumi.
[12:36] Katsura
I appreciate how broad-minded you are.
[12:38] Ichibanboshi
Katsura-san, what's an important member
of the Choshu Domain doing here?
[12:42] Katsura
I want to stop my Choshu countrymen.
[12:45] Katsura
I don't want to cause
harm with a foolish war.
[12:48] Katsura
Let me help the Shinsengumi.
[12:51] Ichibanboshi
In that case, you're our friend.
[12:53] Ichibanboshi
I look forward to working with you.
[12:54] Katsura
Likewise.
[12:55] Todo
What do you think you're—
[12:57] Suzuran
Done.
[13:00] Suzuran
Bo-chan, could you finish this off
by linking them with a red line?
[13:11] Bo
Ta-dah!
[13:13] Todo
It's...
[13:14] Ichibanboshi
A star.
[13:15] Suzuran
It's the Onmyodo pentagram ritual.
[13:18] Suzuran
They were planning to burn
a star shape from the start.
[13:21] Todo
Onmyodo...
[13:23] Gyataro
What's up?
[13:25] Todo
Nothing.
[13:26] Suzuran
Katsura-san, thank you.
[13:27] Suzuran
It all came together because of you.
[13:29] Katsura
You're welcome.
[13:31] Sakuya
If we work together, we'll end up somewhere.
[13:35] Ichibanboshi
What's that?
[13:36] Sakuya
It's what you said.
[13:38] Ichibanboshi
Is that right?
[13:41] Sakuya
Even I feel comfortable counting on you now.
[13:46] Ichibanboshi
I'll take that as a compliment.
[13:49] Ichibanboshi
This time, let's blitz 'em for real!
[13:53] All
Yes, sir!
[13:58] Tsuchimikado
The stars have risen.
[14:02] Tsuchimikado

The Choshu forces are composed
of roughly 2,000 men.
[14:41] Akizuki
The Aizu are also preparing for battle,
[14:45] Akizuki
but are you certain trusting the
Shinsengumi was the right choice?
[14:50] Katamori
It's true that they're former criminals.
[14:52] Katamori
But their love for this city
[14:55] Katamori
and their desire to protect Kyoto
is stronger than anyone else's.
[15:01] Ichibanboshi

[15:08] Ichibanboshi

let's get there first.
[15:11] Sakuya
Shut and follow me, Dumboshi.
[15:14] Bo
You're overexcited.

Don't let them make you admit defeat.

[15:20] Sogen
I'm used to it.
[15:22] Akira
It still makes me uneasy.
[15:24] Ichibanboshi
Let's go. The Shinsengumi's got a job to do.
[15:37] Tomekichi
Let's go.
[15:42] Tomekichi
Are you okay?
[15:45] Okayo
Can you stand?
[15:46] Urchin
Yeah.
[15:48] Tomekichi
Thanks, miss.
[15:50] Okayo
None needed. I was just doing the right thing.
[15:55] Tomekichi
This is wrong.
[15:57] Tomekichi
This is definitely the wrong way.
[16:01] Okayo
The Shinsengumi is protecting the city.
[16:05] Okayo
We should do what we can, too.
[16:13] Sogen
We'll be arriving at Oharano Shrine soon.
[16:17] Suzuran
Look at that.
[16:21] Choshu
Aim!
[16:24] Choshu
Fire!
[16:28] Sogen
They're using spirit weapons.
[16:31] Suzuran
The souls are crying.
[16:33] Sogen
Suzuran-dono?
[16:36] Suzuran
Those weapons taint people's souls.
[16:40] Suzuran
I can see it.
[16:43] Suzuran
Though I doubt you believe in
anything as unscientific as souls.
[16:49] Sogen
That which can't be seen simply
hasn't been studied yet.
[16:53] Sogen
Therefore, the most unscientific
thing a person can do
[16:58] Sogen
is refuse to believe in
things they can't see.
[17:04] Gyataro
Yahoo!
[17:08] Gyataro
I won't let those kids cry again!
[17:16] Bo
For the people who depend on us!
[17:20] Choshu A
Spirit cannons, forward.
[17:25] Gyataro
Seriously?
[17:27] Bo
Those things sank a black ship.
[17:29] Choshu A
Fire!
[17:36] Katsura
Kusaka's soldiers should be at Iwaya Shrine.
[17:42] Katsura
Kusaka!
[17:46] Akira
What is this?
[17:54] Kusaka
Katsura...
[17:56] Katsura
So this is the path you've chosen.
[18:01] Kusaka
I'd risk my own life to serve as
ammunition for the spirit weapons.
[18:06] Kusaka
Why don't you?
[18:08] Katsura
Watch out!
[18:12] Ichibanboshi
Damn it. They beat us here.

[19:10] Todo
Tsuchimikado, you should

The rest of the imperial

[19:17] Todo
Tsuchimikado.
[19:20] Todo
Excuse me.
[19:34] Todo
What are you doing, Tsuchimikado?
[19:38] Tsuchimikado
These days onmyoji deal only
in astronomy and calendars,
[19:43] Tsuchimikado
but they once presided over
the paths of the stars
[19:46] Tsuchimikado
and oversaw fates none could resist.
[20:01] Todo
So it really was you.
[20:03] Todo
You're the masked man who killed
the original Shinsengumi!
[20:08] Tsuchimikado
Todo Heisuke, you too were
brought here by the stars.
[20:16] Todo
I will avenge them!
[20:20] Tsuchimikado
Stay there and watch.
[20:23] Tsuchimikado
You have nothing to worry about.
[20:26] Tsuchimikado
Soon you'll be joining your companions.
[20:45] Tsuchimikado
No one can defy fate,
[20:49] Tsuchimikado
except for Abe no Haruakira-sama.
[20:54] Todo
What could that ancient
onmyoji possibly do now?
[20:57] Tsuchimikado
But you've already met Haruakira-sama,
[21:02] Tsuchimikado
here in this place.
[21:06] Todo
Could it be?
[21:24] Todo
Resurrecting that monster to help
the Choshu Domain is excessive.
[21:31] Todo
This proves how far Onmyodo has fallen.
[21:36] Tsuchimikado
I'm not only going to have
Haruakira-sama wage war
[21:40] Tsuchimikado
within our nation but
against foreign nations as well.
[21:43] Todo
Foreign nations? What do you intend to do?
[21:47] Tsuchimikado
Japan will be reborn anew
[21:51] Tsuchimikado
through the resurrection of Haruakira-sama.

They're glowing.

What's this?

According to Todo, the real
Okita Soji's soul is in here.
[02:38] Katsura
Spirit weapons and glowing swords.
[02:42] Katsura
Either way, this battle is
beyond human understanding.

but do you see something else?
[03:07] Suzuran
There are a hundred of them—no, a thousand.
[03:10] Suzuran
An incredible number of souls
are gathering around that light.
[03:14] Sogen
We should head there as well.
[03:15] Suzuran
Yeah.
[03:26] Haruakira
You're no fools.
[03:29] Haruakira
Where is the diviner who summoned
me from the underworld?
[03:32] Ichibanboshi
Tsukito, what are you talking about?
[03:35] Sakuya
That's not your brother. It's that
monster that's speaking to us.
[03:42] Haruakira
So the one who summoned me is over there.
[03:50] Rashomaru
Brother, you have to run.
[03:53] Ichibanboshi
Tsukito?
[03:55] Haruakira
My mind...
[03:57] Rashomaru
...and Haruakira-sama's are still merged...
[03:59] Haruakira
...within this body.
[04:04] Rashomaru
Tsuchimikado-sama took me and
raised me for a noble purpose.
[04:11] Rashomaru
I had no idea his plan was to have the
resurrected Abe no Haruakira inhabit my body.
[04:19] Sakuya
I see. So the pentagram drawn across Kyoto
[04:23] Sakuya
was a ritual meant to resurrect
a thousand-year-old onmyoji.
[04:27] Ichibanboshi
I don't know who this Honolulu clown is...
[04:32] Ichibanboshi
But give me back Tsukito!
[04:35] Haruakira
Pitiful.
[04:41] Sakuya
Dumboshi!
[04:42] Ichibanboshi
Ow...
[04:44] Haruakira
No one can defy the stars.
[04:48] Haruakira
All you need is to prepare
yourself to accept your fate.
[04:51] Sakuya
Haruakira,
[04:53] Sakuya
I'll send you back to the underworld.
[05:06] Haruakira
It is futile.
[05:13] Haruakira
Don't rush to your deaths.
[05:15] Haruakira
Allow your body to be
consumed by illness and die.
[05:22] Haruakira
That is your fate.
[05:27] Sakuya
My fate...
[05:30] Ichibanboshi
Sakuya!
[05:32] Ichibanboshi
This guy is bad news.
[05:34] Sakuya
It's not possible for us
to get your brother back.
[05:37] Sakuya
He's not someone we can take
on as people bound by fate.
[05:40] Ichibanboshi
What are you talking about?
[05:42] Sakuya
Accept it. He's right.
[05:44] Sakuya
It's our fate. Our destiny.
[05:46] Ichibanboshi
I don't care about fate.
[05:48] Sakuya
Our paths have already been decided for us.
[05:51] Ichibanboshi
Then I'll change it.
[05:53] Ichibanboshi
I'll decide what path I take.
[05:56] Ichibanboshi
And if that doesn't work,
then I'll take a side road instead.
[06:02] Sakuya
Your stupidity may have infected me.
[06:05] Sakuya
Even I'm starting to feel
like I could do that.
[06:08] Ichibanboshi
Let's go.
[06:09] Sakuya
All right.
[06:12] Tsuchimikado
It was a blessing of fate that I
acquired a body more suitable than mine
[06:17] Tsuchimikado
for when I needed Abe no
Haruakira-sama's strength.
[06:23] Todo
You've been gathering souls so
you could resurrect that monster.
[06:28] Tsuchimikado
My only miscalculation was that the
souls of the Shinsengumi leaders
[06:32] Tsuchimikado
resided in their swords and periodically
interfered with my plans.
[06:37] Todo
You set fire to the city and killed innocent
people because of your blind faith.
[06:41] Tsuchimikado
I simply did what I could for
our country as an onmyoji.
[06:47] Todo
You did this for yourself.
[06:50] Tsuchimikado
That's simply written in the stars as well.
[06:53] Todo
Don't be ridiculous!
[06:55] Todo
There isn't a shred of
truth behind your words!
[07:05] Aizu Soldier A
Hold out!
[07:06] Aizu Soldier B
Push them back!
[07:07] Choshu Soldier A
Keep pushing!
[07:09] Maki
The emperor will be ours!
[07:13] Katsura
Maki! Are you there, Maki Izumi?
[07:15] Maki
Kogoro, why are you trying
to stop the Choshu?
[07:19] Katsura
You've more than demonstrated our strength.
[07:22] Katsura
That's enough. Withdraw your forces.
[07:24] Maki
Have you forgotten the change
in government of August 18th?
[07:28] Maki
Now is the time to settle our old grudge.
[07:31] Katsura
Is that really worth burning
down Kyoto for, you idiot?
[07:34] Maki
Silence! We are on the side of righteousness!
[07:38] Aizu Solider A
The Forbidden Gates...
[07:40] Aizu Soldier B
The Hamaguri Imperial Gates are opening!
[07:42] Choshu Soldier
Charge!
[07:47] Katsura
You fools.
[07:50] Katsura
This is no time for humans to
be fighting amongst ourselves.
[07:58] Sakuya
What's the matter?
[08:00] Ichibanboshi
I must've broken it earlier.
[08:02] Sakuya
Can you hold a sword?
[08:10] Ichibanboshi
Just barely.
[08:15] Sakuya
I doubt you'd listen even
if I told you not to fight.
[08:23] Ichibanboshi
Now I won't drop my sword.
[08:25] Ichibanboshi
You sure about this, though?
[08:27] Sakuya
Until now, I've cut people down according
to the rules of hired killers
[08:32] Sakuya
and counted the number of people I killed.
[08:36] Sakuya
But even after my thousandth kill,
I didn't see the world any differently.
[08:41] Sakuya
From now on, I'll count the
number of people I save,
[08:44] Sakuya
just like you told me to.
[08:46] Ichibanboshi
That makes me number one.
[08:48] Ichibanboshi
I'm the first guy you saved.
[08:50] Sakuya
Yeah.
[09:00] Akira
What are all of you doing here?
[09:02] Gyataro
It's our swords.
[09:03] Bo
They won't stop glowing.
[09:05] Sogen
We simply came in the direction
that made them glow most brightly.
[09:09] Suzuran
The souls gathered here
probably did the same.
[09:22] Gyataro
Wh-What the heck is that?
[09:24] Sogen
There's someone inside. It's...
[09:26] Bo
Rashomaru.
[09:28] Ichibanboshi
Hey!
[09:30] Akira
Ichibanboshi.
[09:32] Gyataro
You're all right.
[09:33] Sakuya
Be careful.
[09:34] Sakuya
That's Abe no Haruakira,
resurrected by the pentagram ritual.
[09:38] Suzuran
Haruakira?
[09:40] Ichibanbos
We're gonna stop him.
[09:41] Bo
I'm not sure what's going on...
[09:44] Sogen
But it would seem we have no other choice.
[09:46] Haruakira
More bothersome fireflies
that glitter and glow.
[09:52] Ichibanboshi
Tsukito...

[10:05] Todo
You killed Kondo-san, Hijikata-san,
and the other members of the Shinsengumi.
[10:11] Todo
I will kill you. Even if I fall—
[10:15] Tsuchimikado
Your substitutes will kill me instead?
[10:22] Tsuchimikado
Unfortunately, that wish
will not be fulfilled.
[10:26] Tsuchimikado
The stars have already risen.
[10:40] Haruakira
I shall scatter you.
[10:43] Sogen
Its power is beyond the realm of science.
[10:46] Sogen
It would make a truly
fascinating research subject.
[10:49] Suzuran
If we survive, you can do that all you want.
[11:04] Haruakira
I can feel the stars flowing into my body.
[11:07] Akira
Its body...
[11:08] Sakuya
Is he regenerating?
[11:10] Bo
We need to beat him quickly.
[11:12] Rashomaru
It's futile. Haruakira-sama is a weapon
meant to fight foreign nations.
[11:16] Haruakira
You're a nuisance, Tsukito.
[11:18] Haruakira
Leave me and go to the other world.
[11:20] Rashomaru
Don't fight him!
[11:22] Suzuran
He's inhabiting Tsukito-kun's body.
[11:25] Suzuran
If we want to stop Abe no Haruakira,
we'll have to kill him.
[11:28] Ichibanboshi
What are you talking about?
[11:30] Ichibanboshi
We'll beat this guy and save Tsukito.
[11:33] Ichibanboshi
Guys, lend me your strength.
[11:35] All
Yes, sir.
[11:40] Gyataro
I'm first.
[11:45] Haruakira
Barely a scratch.
[11:48] Sogen
Our weapons may not work
against your mysterious body,
[11:52] Sogen
but they work on physical objects.
[11:55] Bo
Akira!
[11:58] Akira
Suzuran!
[12:02] Suzuran
How do you feel about getting zapped?
[12:12] Ichibanboshi
Tsukito...
[12:13] Ichibanboshi
I'm coming to save you!
[12:18] Sakuya
Now!
[12:21] Gyataro
Heck yeah!
[12:27] Akira
This ends now!
[12:36] Tsuchimikado
What?
[12:40] Tsuchimikado
The substitutes...
[12:46] Ichibanboshi
Let's get you out of here.
[12:49] Rashomaru
Brother, I...
[12:54] Rashomaru
I wanted to become stronger.
[12:59] Rashomaru
Pa and Ma died because I was weak.
[13:04] Rashomaru
If I didn't become stronger, the things
that mattered most would be taken from me.
[13:08] Rashomaru
I thought Tsuchimikado-sama was right
and this country should do the same.
[13:15] Rashomaru
But...
[13:19] Tsuchimikado
Haruakira-sama...
[13:21] Tsuchimikado
I'm on my way.
[13:26] Todo
This is nonsense.
[13:27] Todo
Have you lost your mind, Tsuchimikado?
[13:30] Tsuchimikado
Todo Heisuke, let us meet again.
[13:34] Todo
Again?
[13:36] Tsuchimikado
After all, that is our
fate written in the stars.
[14:13] Gyataro
The monster turned into an onmyoji.
[14:15] Suzuran
This is Abe no Haruakira's true form.
[14:31] Maki
Fire!
[14:38] Aizu Soldier A
We can't hold out any longer!
[14:44] Haruakira
Die.
[14:49] Haruakira
What are you doing?
[14:50] Haruakira
Stay out of my way, Tsukito.
[14:52] Rashomaru
I finally realized something
after acquiring your power.
[14:58] Rashomaru
This isn't true strength.
[15:05] Ichibanboshi
Tsukito?
[15:07] Rashomaru
Brother, I'm going to join Pa and Ma.
[15:16] (Flashback) Masked Man
Use that sword to kill your mother.
[15:18] (Flashback) Masked Man
Do it, and you'll be spared.
[15:39] (Flashback) Tsukito
Ma...
[15:46] Rashomaru
Haruakira! Tsuchimikado!
[15:50] Rashomaru
This is the strength that will overcome fate!
[15:54] Haruakira
Don't! Don't do it!
[16:22] Ichibanboshi
Tsukito!
[16:24] Maki
Fire!
[16:27] Choshu Soldier B
What?
[16:30] Choshu Soldier C
What's happening?
[16:33] Maki
What's going on?
[16:34] Choshu Member A
It's no use! The swords and
guns have stopped working!
[16:37] Choshu Member B
None of the spirit weapons can be fired!
[16:41] Maki
So this is the end.
[16:52] Ichibanboshi
Tsukito...
[16:55] Rashomaru
Ma killed herself to save me.
[17:02] Ichibanboshi
I know.
[17:04] Rashomaru
Did I become strong like Pa and Ma?
[17:11] Ichibanboshi
You sure did. You were strong.
[17:15] Ichibanboshi
Stronger than anyone.
[17:36] Katamori
Todo.
[17:40] Todo
It's all over.
[17:43] Akizuki
What is this?
[17:45] Todo
What used to be Tsuchimikado.
[17:48] Katamori
We must report this to the
imperial court immediately.

[19:08] Ichibanboshi
Yeah, you're right.
[19:10] Todo
Kondo-san, Hijikata-san, and other
members of the Shinsengumi...
[19:15] Todo
The substitutes have done an impressive job.
[19:20] Todo
They protected the city
of Kyoto and its people.
[19:25] Suzuran
Hello.
[19:30] Suzuran
What have you been reading?
[19:32] Sogen
I'm trying to see if I could
invent a new weapon that would
[19:35] Sogen
surpass even Abe no Haruakira.
[19:37] Suzuran
What? Sogen-chan, are you
even worse than Tsuchimikado?
[19:42] Sogen
But it doesn't seem possible.
[19:53] Katsura
The Choshu are enemies of the emperor now.
[19:56] Katsura
The emperor officially ordered
the Shogunate to punish them.
[19:59] Akira
What are you going to do now?
[20:02] Katsura
I'm going into hiding for a while.
[20:05] Katsura
More importantly, I'd like to
hear your answer to my proposal.
[20:08] Akira
W-Well, I...
[20:10] Akira
I may or may not be willing to consider it.
[20:17] Katsura
That's a rather vague response.
[20:20] Akira
Some things are better left unclear!
[20:24] Chief Carpenter
It's a waste for you to be
part of the Shinsengumi.
[20:28] Chief Carpenter
You sure you won't become a carpenter?
[20:30] Bo
I can't.
[20:31] Bo
I'm the tenth unit captain.
[20:37] Tomekichi
Hey, this is cooked white rice.
[20:39] Tomekichi
Gyata-nii, you prepared
quite the feast for us.
[20:42] Gyataro
You betcha. This is for all of you.
[20:45] All
Thanks!
[20:50] Okayo
I'm thinking about teaching the
orphans here at this temple school.
[20:54] Ichibanboshi
That's a great idea.
[20:56] Okayo
I believe an education is the
quickest shortcut out of poverty.
[21:02] Ichibanboshi
I'll come hang out sometime.
[21:04] Ichibanboshi
When I do, teach me to write "Kondo Isami."
[21:08] Ichibanboshi
I just can't ever seem to remember how.
[21:13] Okayo
Gladly.
[21:15] Todo
It's possible the substitutes achieved
[21:18] Todo
something the real Shinsengumi
couldn't have done.
[21:24] Todo
I'd like to continue watching over
[21:29] Todo
this country's future and their
sincerity a while longer.
[21:36] Katamori
Now that the Choshu have withdrawn,
[21:39] Katamori
I'm concerned about the
Satsuma and Tosa's movements.
[21:42] Akizuki
Sakamoto Ryoma of the Tosa Domain
[21:44] Akizuki
is apparently in contact with
Saigo Takamori of the Satsuma Domain.
[21:48] Katamori
I see.
[21:49] Akizuki
We should patrol the city even
more rigorously than we have been.
[21:54] Katamori
Which means we'll have to rely
on the Shinsengumi after all.
[22:01] Suzuran
Is everyone here?
[22:03] Sogen
The commander hasn't arrived yet.
[22:05] Ichibanboshi
Sorry, sorry.
[22:07] Bo
You're late.
[22:08] Gyataro
We can't get started
unless you're here first.
[22:11] Akira
Commander, if you would.
[22:13] Sakuya
I'm pretty tired of hearing it.
[22:15] Ichibanboshi
