**[00:01] Yumika**
Ittoki, I'm going to tell you
about Iga's secret Ninja Core.
**[00:05] Ittoki**
A... secret Ninja Core?
**[00:08] Yumika**
It was sealed away because
its power was too great,
**[00:11] Yumika**
and its location has been
passed down only to chiefs.
**[00:15] Yumika**
It is a weapon.
**[00:20] Yumika**
This is the registry of Iga ninjas.
**[00:24] Yumika**
Once your name is recorded here,
you will be a true Iga ninja.
**[00:29] Yumika**
Are you prepared to make that commitment?
**[02:07] Kirei**
What, are you that upset school is starting?
**[02:10] Ittoki**
Huh?
**[02:11] Ittoki**
No, it's just...
**[02:13] Ryoko**
This was a really fun
summer break, wasn't it?
**[02:16] Ittoki**
Hey, um...
**[02:18] Ittoki**
Once you graduate, does that
mean you're a full-fledged ninja?
**[02:21] Kirei**
What do you mean?
**[02:23] Ittoki**
I mean, um... I'm wondering when
you start feeling like you're a ninja.
**[02:29] Ryoko**
Good question...
**[02:32] Kousetsu**
You just do one day.
**[02:33] Ittoki; Ryoko; and Kirei**
Huh?
**[02:34] Kousetsu**
Before you know it, you do.
Everything works like that.
**[02:37] Ittoki**
Is that how it works...
**[02:42] Kozo**
Young Master! Emergency!
**[02:44] Kozo**
The Academy is closing temporarily.
**[02:46] Ittoki**
Huh? That's sudden. Why?
**[02:48] Kozo**
They say it's due to large
numbers of absences.
**[02:51] Kozo**
But most likely that's an excuse.
**[02:52] Kozo**
Everyone come with me for a moment.

**[03:00] Reporter**
* This is an extremely rare phenomenon*
* and has drawn many visitors.*
**[03:01] Ittoki**
Why are we watching this?
**[03:02] Tokisada**
It's a code.
**[03:03] Ittoki**
Huh?
**[03:04] Kozo**
They're convening a Ninja Grand Council.
**[03:05] Reporter**
*According to experts—*
**[03:07] Kozo**
It can only be convened on the
command of the head of the NSC.
***SIGN*** Exhibition Days before opening: 96
Let's bloom African daisies at night!
**[03:12] Kozo**
The leaders of all the prominent
villages are called
**[03:15] Kozo**
to form a high council
of 13 ninja clan heads.
***SIGN*** Flowers that bloom at night:
African daisies
**[03:17] Kozo**
The meeting decides the future
for all ninjas in Japan.
**[03:23] Kozo**
It has been a full 70 years
since a Council was last convened.
**[03:27] Amadeus**
Jesus!
**[03:28] Amadeus**
Come on. Are you kidding me?
**[03:30] Flight Attendant**
Would you like some champagne?
**[03:32] Amadeus**
Sorry. I have business to attend to.
I'll get off here.
**[03:35] Amadeus**
Pray for my safe travels.
**[03:37] Flight Attendant**
Very well, sir.
**[03:40] Kozo**
We Iga ninjas hold a seat
on the high council.
**[03:45] Kirei**
I'd never heard of a Ninja Grand Council.
**[03:47] Ryoko**
It has a stiff and formal sound to it.
**[03:50] Ittoki**
So... it's as big a deal as it sounds?
**[03:52] Kozo**
I was told that in the last Council,
**[03:54] Kozo**
an armistice was signed to suspend
the state of war between the villages.
**[04:00] Enbi**
Blasted shadow hunters...
**[04:02] Enbi**
They haven't sniffed anything out, have they?
**[04:04] Kidou**
No need to hesitate.
**[04:06] Kidou**
Proceed with your work undaunted.
**[04:11] Kidou**
Come, Housen.
**[04:13] Housen**
Yes, sir.
**[04:15] Goshogawara**
With the holding of a Ninja Grand
Council come special precautions.
**[04:19] Goshogawara**
Though they normally abide
by the non-aggression pact,
**[04:22] Goshogawara**
village leaders will be
gathered in one place.
**[04:25] Goshogawara**
You must employ strict vigilance.
**[04:27] Goshogawara**
Dismissed.
**[04:29] Shione Kouzuki**
Captain!
**[04:30] Shione Kouzuki**
Why did you not inform us?
**[04:34] Goshogawara**
Because I judged it not to be necessary.
**[04:36] Shione Kouzuki**
Not even the agenda for the Council?
**[04:39] Goshogawara**
I intend to assign the security
of the meeting room to the 1st Division.
**[04:42] Goshogawara**
It will become clear then.
**[04:45] Shione Kouzuki**
I keep being led around by the nose.
**[04:49] Shione Kouzuki**
I joined the NSC out of
a desire to do what's right.
**[04:53] Shione Kouzuki**
But now, I can't even tell
what the right thing is.
**[04:57] Shione Kouzuki**
And so I'd at least like to
understand the mission I'm on.
**[05:01] Goshogawara**
What makes something "right"?
**[05:03] Shione Kouzuki**
What?
**[05:06] Goshogawara**
Until you can answer that,
just focus on the task before you.
**[05:15] Yumika**
Take care of things while I'm away.
**[05:17] Reiha**
Yes, ma'am.
**[05:19] Ittoki**
Um...
**[05:21] Ittoki**
Should I, as heir, be going as well?
**[05:24] Yumika**
A kid's job is to study.
**[05:26] Yumika**
Don't neglect your studies just
because your summer break is longer.
**[05:30] Ittoki**
Okay.
**[05:34] Yumika**
I'll be back later.
**[05:37] Ittoki**
Have a safe trip.

**[05:42] Restaurant Owner**
Any dumplings?
**[05:44] Enya**
Three boiled, two fried.
**[05:46] Restaurant Owner**
Coming right up.
**[05:51] Iboro**
Sorry. I don't have time
for autographs or handshakes today.
**[05:56] Iboro**
I'm sorry, ladies.
I'll make it up to you next time.
**[06:00] Gaggle of fans**
Does he like photo booths?
**[06:02] Gaggle of fans**

Mr. Iboro?
**[06:21] Kozo**
Gantetsu Suzunone of Saiga
village should back us up.
**[06:25] Kozo**
And also Tamayo Katori of Bizen.
**[06:27] Yumika**
Tamayo... I haven't seen her in a while.
**[06:31] Kozo**
You're the only one who's ever won
that stubborn old woman over, ma'am.
**[06:35] Yumika**
Take care not to let any comments
like that slip during the Council, please.
**[06:40] Kozo**
Pardon me, ma'am.

**[07:02] Dazai**
That's the fallen but still
noble Iga ninjas for you.
***SIGN*** Kuroudo Dazai of "Kurohabaki," Mutsu
**[07:06] Yumika**
Excuse our tardiness.
**[07:08] Kozo**
If you hadn't gone the wrong way...
**[07:10] Enya**
Oh, Tokisada the Demi-god!
**[07:12] Enya**
Remember me? We fought to kill
each other several years ago.
***SIGN*** Enya of "Uesugi Tradition," Dewa
**[07:16] Tokisada**
Huh...
**[07:17] Enya**
I'd heard you'd lost your
fangs. I see it's true.
**[07:21] Enya**
Same for you.
**[07:22] Juzen**
Fighting has never been my strong suit.
Aren't you mistaking me for him?
***SIGN*** Juzen Jiraibou of
"Ichizen Tradition," Owari
***SIGN*** Musou Benkei of "Shadow Taisha," Ureshino
**[07:30] Enya**
I hate types like him.
**[07:32] Enya**
I hate stiff meetings even more!
**[07:35] Yachiyo**
Pipe down, pipsqueak.
**[07:37] Enya**
What's that?
**[07:38] Yachiyo**
Oh, you're sensitive about it.
***SIGN*** Yachiyo Mochizuki of "Takeda Tradition Wandering
Priestesses / Covert Agents," Kai
**[07:41] Yachiyo**
Forgive my rudeness.
**[07:42] Enya**
You wanna die, cosplay hag?
**[07:45] Yachiyo**
I wouldn't mind settling
Kawanakajima here and now.
**[07:49] Goshogawara**
Be quiet.
**[07:51] Goshogawara**
This meeting is for discussion.
There is no need for violence.
**[07:55] Iboro**
He's right, Ms. Yachiyo.
Why dishevel your lovely outfit?
***SIGN*** Iboro of "Hachiya Troupe," Izumo
**[08:00] Yachiyo**
Your smirking face is as irritating as ever.
**[08:03] Mandara 1**
Irritating.
***SIGN*** Mandara Samuragouchi of
"Mukyokuryoujou Tradition," Suruga
**[08:05] Mandara 2**
Irritating indeed.
**[08:09] Amadeus**
The players are all present.
Let's start the show.
***SIGN*** Amadeus Yoshinaka Nishina of
"Togakure Tradition," Shinano
**[08:13] NSC A**
Be prepared to act at any moment.
**[08:15] NSC B; C and Shione**
Right.
**[08:16] Goshogawara**
*With everyone here,*
**[08:18] Goshogawara**
I shall now begin the Ninja Grand Council.
**[08:21] Kozo**
Hold on a moment. I don't see
anyone from Saiga village.
**[08:25] Housen**
Saiga is now under Koga's umbrella.
**[08:27] Everyone (?)**
What?
**[08:29] Housen**
Saiga's workshop officially
became our subsidiary.
**[08:32] Housen**
This is the result of a mutual agreement.
**[08:34] Housen**
Thus, Saiga withdraws from participating,
**[08:36] Housen**
saying it will follow Koga in all decisions.
**[08:40] Kozo**
Something is amiss.
Tamayo isn't here from Bizen either.
***SIGN*** Samon Katori of "Bizen Tradition," Bizen
**[08:46] Housen**
The Fuma are now under our umbrella as well.
**[08:50] Ninokuru**
The chief cannot attend,
so I am here as a proxy.
***SIGN*** Kisuke Ninokuru "Houjou Tradition Fuma Clan," Sagami
**[08:55] Yachiyo**
Please, *you're* the chief.
Fuma's done this charade for 500 years.
**[08:59] Iboro**
Well, it's understandable you'd be wary.
**[09:02] Amadeus**
It's the first Grand Council in 70 years.
It would come as quite the surprise.
**[09:07] Goshogawara**
I'll get straight to the point.
**[09:08] Goshogawara**
*The Ninja Ordinances have been broken,*
**[09:11] Goshogawara**
* and the balance we have protected over*
* all these years is being threatened.*
**[09:15] Goshogawara**
By Koga village.
**[09:22] Dazai**
You mean the little thing
between Iga and Koga?
**[09:25] Dazai**
That's a minor—
**[09:26] Goshogawara**
On the contrary.
**[09:27] Goshogawara**
I believe Koga's actions extend
to the entire country.
**[09:31] Housen**
Based on what?
**[09:33] Goshogawara**
You stated earlier that Saiga
became a subsidiary.
**[09:36] Goshogawara**
Where, precisely, are they working?
**[09:39] Housen**
A Koga Ninja Tool factory.
**[09:41] Goshogawara**
There is no record of Saiga working
**[09:43] Goshogawara**
at any of Koga Holdings'
officially registered facilities.
**[09:48] Goshogawara**
Instead, most of the members of Saiga
seem to have suddenly vanished.
**[09:54] Goshogawara**
It does not end there.
**[09:56] Goshogawara**
There have been frequent cases
**[09:57] Goshogawara**
where small-scale villages
are never heard from again.
**[10:01] Goshogawara**
And at the Ninja Academy, I hear voluntary
withdrawals far exceed normal numbers.
**[10:05] Juzen**
That is correct.
**[10:10] NSC A**
So the captain was investigating Koga
for acts of aggression...
**[10:14] Shione Kouzuki**
But why did he hide it from us
and investigate alone?
**[10:18] NSC C**
It must be because Koga's influence
reaches everywhere, including the NSC.
**[10:23] Amadeus**
*I see. If true, that* is *a problem.*
**[10:26] Togakure (still Amadeus?)**
What does Koga have to say about this?
**[10:28] Kidou**
Only that it is entirely groundless.
**[10:30] Enya**
Guess we're done now.
**[10:33] Goshogawara**
Then let me hear
from everyone gathered here.
**[10:36] Goshogawara**
If Koga has acted against your village,
I'd like you to testify here and now.
**[10:42] Goshogawara**
For Ninja Ordinances violations,
affected party testimony holds great weight.
**[10:47] Goshogawara**
Depending on the testimony, Koga's chief
may even be arrested on the spot.
**[10:53] Shione Kouzuki**
So *this* was the purpose
of the Grand Council.
**[10:55] NSC B**
Koga is powerful.
**[10:56] NSC B**
Arresting them will prove difficult,
**[10:58] NSC B**
but with the council on our side,
if we surround them and cut off escape...
**[11:02] Enya**
*Nothing to say here.*
**[11:04] Enya**
I can't say the relationship is that close,
but I don't recall any problems either.
**[11:09] Dazai**
Me neither. To begin with, Kurohabaki
has long had deep ties to Koga.
**[11:15] Goshogawara**
Chief of Togakure.
**[11:16] Amadeus**
These days my battleground
extends outside Japan, so no.
**[11:20] Iboro**
For me, my concern lies much more
with my fans than my village.
**[11:24] Amadeus**
Exactly! We're attempting to turn
ninjas into a global business.
**[11:30] Goshogawara**
Chief of Bizen.
**[11:31] Samon**
Uh, I...
**[11:37] Samon**
have nothing to report.
**[11:50] Dazai**
What the hell?
**[11:52] Dazai**
We convene a damn Grand Council,
and it's all, "There have been no problems"?
**[11:56] Amadeus**
This is rude of me to say,
**[11:59] Amadeus**
but aren't Koga and Iga in a sense
both guilty aggressors?
**[12:01] Enya**
Just how did they kill the mighty
Kishinmaru? I'd love to hear it.
**[12:08] Kidou**
*Captain Goshogawara, it is as you've heard.*
**[12:12] Kidou**
It appears you were worried over nothing.
**[12:16] Yumika**
I do believe I have yet to give *my* answer.
**[12:19] Kidou**
Watch what you say.
**[12:22] Kidou**
It's somewhat hard to listen calmly
to the words of a filthy chief killer.
**[12:28] Yumika**
Regarding that, I say only
that it is entirely groundless.
**[12:32] Yumika**
I ordered no such operation,
**[12:35] Yumika**
nor is there anyone in Iga
who would do such a thing.
**[12:39] Yumika**
It is a false allegation
you leveled against us.
**[12:42] Yumika**
We investigated Koga and obtained evidence
**[12:46] Yumika**
that they're developing a new Ninja
Tool... or should I say "weapon."
**[12:50] Yumika**
Furthermore, we have information that
they're targeting Iga's secret Ninja Core.
**[12:55] Yachiyo**
Ohh, so that's real.
**[12:58] Yumika**
Koga is attempting to use false
vengeance as a pretext to invade Iga
**[13:02] Yumika**
and expand its power.
**[13:05] Yumika**
In response to this, Iga is prepared
**[13:08] Yumika**
to destroy its secret Ninja Core.
**[13:13] Dazai**
Are you sure? Isn't it a valuable deterrent?
**[13:16] Yumika**
We passed it down over generations
to pay respect to our ancestors' greatness.
**[13:21] Yumika**
The secret Ninja Core was sealed away to
avoid great bloodshed, in the first place.
**[13:27] Yumika**
If it stands to ignite
a conflict in the present,
**[13:30] Yumika**
then to bury it forever would also
be following our ancestors' wishes.
**[13:35] Ninokuru**
You think you can fool us
with hackneyed pretty words?
**[13:38] Ninokuru**
Steal, scheme, kill, sneak.
**[13:40] Ninokuru**
That is a shinobi's true desire.
**[13:45] Yumika**
That is the way of the past.
**[13:47] Yumika**
We are not in the ninja glory days
of the Warring States period.
**[13:50] Yumika**
What is needed of us now is
not military might and scheming,
**[13:54] Yumika**
but for us to protect the people's
harmony. Is that not so?
**[13:58] Yumika**
Iga will let all that has happened
be water under the bridge.
**[14:02] Yumika**
In exchange, we ask one thing.
**[14:05] Yumika**
Do not take anything else from us!
**[14:13] Samon**
I testify that Bizen
**[14:15] Samon**
has experienced Koga aggression!
**[14:17] Samon**
The Kusunoki house has
already been scattered.
**[14:20] Samon**
And the branch families' small
villages have fallen as well.
**[14:24] Samon**
We no longer have the power to fight back!
**[14:28] Samon**
I'm sorry I couldn't speak up immediately.
**[14:31] Samon**
Grandmother was pained
by the village's steady collapse,
**[14:34] Samon**
and she took her own life.
**[14:37] Samon**
Seeing all of that happen, I...
**[14:42] Yumika**
Thank you for your courage.
**[14:46] Iboro**
What would you say a show needs?
**[14:51] Iboro**
It's love and peace.
**[14:54] Iboro**
The Hachiya make their
living through entertainment.
**[14:57] Iboro**
But it's a fickle industry.
**[14:59] Iboro**
That unreliability and fragility
was used against us.
**[15:01] Iboro**
And now I alone am supporting
the entire village.
**[15:06] Iboro**
It's all because of Koga.
**[15:09] Amadeus**
Iboro...
**[15:11] Yachiyo**
It would appear none of us are unaffected.
**[15:21] Enya**
Dazai...
**[15:23] Dazai**
When you get old,
**[15:25] Dazai**
you find things that are more important
than favors and indebtedness.
**[15:28] Amadeus**
Then I take it all of you are testifying?
**[15:32] Amadeus**
I have my own piece to add as well.
**[15:34] Amadeus**
You got a little too naughty, Kidou.
**[15:37] Goshogawara**
A village's chief must take responsibility
for the crimes of the village.
**[15:42] Goshogawara**
I arrest you on suspicion
of violating the Ninja Ordinances.
**[15:48] Kidou**
I will go willingly.
**[15:51] Shione Kouzuki**
Thank goodness.
**[15:53] Housen**
Captain Goshogawara, has Chief
Kishinmaru's killer still not been found?
**[15:58] Goshogawara**
The matter is currently under investigation.
**[16:00] Housen**
I pray a just decision is rendered.
**[16:05] Karajishi**
Pardon the interruption.
**[16:07] Karajishi**
I am Genji Karajishi,
Captain of the 2nd Division.
**[16:11] Shione Kouzuki**
Why is Captain Karajishi here?!
**[16:13] Goshogawara**
Is it an emergency?
**[16:14] Karajishi**
Yes. I am here to report that
conclusive evidence has been found
**[16:18] Karajishi**
that Koga Chief Kishinmaru
Minobe was killed by Iga.
**[16:26] Goshogawara**
Proceed.
**[16:27] Karajishi**
Due to the jamming by the culprit,
there was no security footage of the scene.
**[16:33] Karajishi**
Or so the 1st Division concluded.
**[16:37] Karajishi**
After investigating independently,
the 2nd Division
**[16:40] Karajishi**
succeeded in extracting trace
fragments of that data.
**[16:47] Karajishi**
See for yourselves.
**[16:54] Kozo**
You call this blurry video proof?
Don't be ridiculous!
**[16:58] Karajishi**
What's important
isn't the video but the audio.
**[17:01] Kozo**
Audio?
**[17:01] Karajishi**
Each village's Ninja Cores
are custom devices.
**[17:05] Karajishi**
It is known that there are subtle differences
**[17:08] Karajishi**
in the sounds their internal
structures produce.
**[17:11] Karajishi**
This security camera recorded
the audio at the scene.
**[17:15] Karajishi**
Analysis shows the frequencies
and wavelengths emitted
**[17:19] Karajishi**
are a 99.7 match for an Iga Ninja Core.
**[17:23] Kozo**
This is nonsense!
**[17:25] Karajishi**
This conclusion was reached using
the latest in ninja forensic technology.
**[17:30] Karajishi**
It seems like sufficient evidence to me.
**[17:32] Karajishi**
What about you, 1st Division Captain?
**[17:37] Karajishi**
A village's chief bears responsibility
for the village's crimes.
**[17:40] Karajishi**
Will you come with me?
**[17:45] Karajishi**
That won't help your chief.
**[17:48] Yumika**
We have done no wrong.
**[17:51] Yumika**
We need only prove our innocence.
**[17:54] Yumika**
Tokisada! Remember what
you ought to protect.
**[18:00] Yumika**
Tell Ittoki this for me.
**[18:04] Yumika**
"Take care of Iga."
**[18:09] Goshogawara**
The Ninja Grand Council is now concluded.
**[18:21] Ittoki**
They arrested Mom?!
**[18:24] Kozo**
But we are innocent.
**[18:26] Kozo**
There is nothing to worry about.
Keep a level head.
**[18:30] Kirei**
Are you okay?
**[18:31] Ryoko**
Stay calm.
**[18:32] Ittoki**
Yeah.
**[18:34] Kousetsu**
I'll do anything. Tell me how
to rescue Yumika.
**[18:37] Tokisada**
Make no moves right now.
**[18:39] Tokisada**
Ittoki, I have a message
from Yumika—I mean the chief.
**[18:44] Tokisada**
"Take care of Iga."
**[18:51] Ittoki**
Kozo.
**[18:52] Ittoki**
Ms. Reiha.
**[18:53] Reiha**
Yes?
**[18:53] Ittoki**
Uncle.
**[18:54] Ittoki**
I have a request.
**[18:56] Ittoki**
I'd like you to gather
the members of Iga village.
**[18:58] Enbi**
The NSC arrested the acting chief
because of an Iga plot!
**[19:03] Enbi**
This is a declaration of war from Iga!
**[19:06] Enbi**
We will fully mobilize.
Steel your conviction!
**[19:11] Enbi**
We must annihilate the village of Iga!
**[19:17] Goshogawara**
I will have you all handle the interrogations
of Koga's acting chief and Iga's chief.
**[19:22] Shione Kouzuki**
What about you?
**[19:23] Goshogawara**
I have something to investigate.
**[19:24] NSC A**
So you're going it alone again.
**[19:27] Shione Kouzuki**
I will follow your orders.
**[19:28] Shione Kouzuki**
But we cannot help you
if we're always being left out.
**[19:32] Shione Kouzuki**
Captain, please trust us.
**[19:36] Goshogawara**
Then here are my orders.
**[19:38] Goshogawara**
From here on, act according
to your own sense of justice.

**[19:46] Goshogawara**
Why was he hiding this until now?
**[19:53] Goshogawara**
That's...
**[20:01] Goshogawara**
Karajishi!
**[20:03] Karajishi**
Are you losing your edge?
**[20:05] Karajishi**
This is Koga's latest model.
**[20:08] Karajishi**
To think I managed to sneak up on you.
**[20:10] Karajishi**
Three cheers for scientific advancement.
**[20:13] Goshogawara**
To think you'd sink to this...
**[20:15] Karajishi**
You're one to talk.
**[20:17] Karajishi**
Your favoritism toward Iga is inexcusable.
**[20:19] Karajishi**
They killed Koga's chief, you know.
**[20:22] Goshogawara**
There's something rotten about that video!
**[20:25] Goshogawara**
It can't be accepted as evidence!
**[20:27] Karajishi**
I swear.
**[20:29] Karajishi**
There's just no reasoning with you.
**[20:32] Chikamatsu**
Kozo! Will Yumika really be okay?
**[20:36] Kozo**
No need to worry! She'll be back in no time!
**[20:38] Shiota**
But in the worst-case scenario...
**[20:40] Kozo**
She'll be fine!
**[20:42] Yokogawa**
Even though it's temporary,
it's hard to stay calm without her.
**[20:45] Tokisada**
Oh?
**[20:47] Kozo**
Young Master?
**[20:48] Kirei**
He looks so funny!
**[20:51] Ittoki**
Do I stand here?
**[20:52] Reiha**
Yes. Right there.
**[20:54] Ittoki**
Um...
**[20:56] Ittoki**
Everyone, please be seated.
**[20:58] Ittoki**
I believe you are all aware,
as you know, of the news
**[21:02] Ittoki**
that the chief is absent due to...
myriad circumstances.
**[21:07] Ittoki**
With the chief absent, in accordance
with the Ninja Ordinances,
**[21:11] Ittoki**
we must select an acting chief.
**[21:14] Ittoki**
As such...
***SIGN*** Ittoki Sakuraba
**[21:19] Ittoki**
As an Iga Ninja and the 19th
legitimate successor to the Iga lineage,
**[21:24] Ittoki**
I, Ittoki Sakuraba,
wish to serve as acting chief.
**[21:30] Kozo**
Young Master...
**[21:38] Ittoki**
Just until my mother comes back.
**[21:45] Karajishi**
Iga Chief Yumika Sakuraba,
**[21:50] Karajishi**
I sentence you to death.
