[00:02] Kidou
    I was born sickly and feeble.
[00:08] Kidou
    My flesh needed to be reforged
    to be fit to be Chief of Koga.
[00:15] Kidou
    Pain. I have no memory of anything else.
[00:20] Kidou
    The months and years of pain produced...
[00:28] Kidou
    a failure.
[00:31] Kidou
    Every time I woke up due to pain,
[00:34] Kidou
    I would think:
[00:37] Kidou
    "If only I'd never been born a ninja."
[00:40] Kidou
    "If only there were no ninjas."
[00:47] Karajishi
    Forgive me, sir.
[00:50] Karajishi
    I'm sorry to have made you spend
    so much time in this cramped cell.
[00:56] Enbi
    Yes. This is Takamine.
[01:01] Enbi
    Understood.
SIGN    EPISODE 8 DUSK
    BRINGS A STORM
[02:51] Karajishi
    Seventy-two hours have passed without
    any contact from Goshogawara.
[02:56] Karajishi
    Accordingly, as of this moment,
[02:58] Karajishi
    all authority as head of
    the NSC passes to me.
[03:02] Shione Kouzuki
    Hold on!
[03:03] Shione Kouzuki
    I thought Captain Goshogawara
    was on a solo mission!
[03:06] Karajishi
    The 2nd Division will look
    into Goshogawara's whereabouts.
[03:10] Karajishi
    Also, Kidou Minobe will be
    released without indictment
[03:14] Karajishi
    due to insufficient evidence.
[03:16] Karajishi
    Regarding Yumika Sakuraba, she has
    been determined to be the mastermind
[03:19] Karajishi
    of the plot to kill Koga's chief.
[03:22] Karajishi
    In accordance with the Ninja
    Ordinances, she will be executed.
[03:26] Karajishi
    That is all.
[03:26] Shione Kouzuki
    Please wait!
[03:28] Karajishi
    Ah, yes. One more thing.
[03:30] Karajishi
    Ms. Shione Kouzuki.
[03:31] Karajishi
    I appoint you Captain of the 1st Division.
[03:37] Karajishi
    Work hard as Goshogawara's successor.
[03:42] Shione Kouzuki
    Everything about this stinks!
[03:44] Shione Kouzuki
    The fact that the captain is gone,
    Karajishi's command—
[03:47] Shione Kouzuki
    all of it is fishy!
[03:49] NSC A
    We know. None of us are satisfied
    with what's happening.
[03:52] Shione Kouzuki
    I believe Karajishi is involved
    in the captain's disappearance!
[03:57] Shione Kouzuki
    The way he treated Iga
    and Koga is clearly improper!
[04:00] Shione Kouzuki
    And with what happened at
    the Ninja Grand Council, Karajishi—
[04:03] NSC B
    Give it a rest!
[04:04] NSC A
    The NSC must remain absolutely neutral.
[04:07] NSC A
    Have you forgotten that basic principle?
[04:10] NSC A
    Right now, you're the captain.
[04:12] NSC A
    The captain can't lose their cool.
[04:16] Shione Kouzuki
    I'm not fit to be captain.
[04:18] Shione Kouzuki
    It's obvious—to no one more than me.
[04:21] Shione Kouzuki
    And the reason he designated
    me captain despite that
[04:24] Shione Kouzuki
    is that it's more convenient for him.
[04:27] Shione Kouzuki
    Doesn't that mean there's some reason
    Karajishi doesn't want us to act?
[04:32] NSC B
    For now, let's figure out
    where Captain Goshogawara is.
[04:36] NSC B
    We'll start there.
[04:38] NSC A
    But we've been taken off all investigations.
[04:41] NSC A
    We'll be violating orders if we take action.
[04:46] Shione Kouzuki
    The last orders the captain gave us...
[04:50] Shione Kouzuki
    Remember what he said?
[04:55] Karajishi
    How do you like the accommodations?
[04:59] Karajishi
    Come now. Don't glare at me like that.
[05:02] Karajishi
    I came here today with good news.
[05:09] Karajishi
    The acting chief of Koga, Kidou Minobe,
    has proposed a deal with you.
[05:16] Karajishi
    I have deemed the proposal to be beneficial
    to the NSC and ninjas as a whole,
[05:22] Karajishi
    so I am considering altering
    your death sentenc—
[05:24] Yumika
    And the offer is that I hand
    over the secret Ninja Core?
[05:29] Karajishi
    It would be sharing technology
    for the sake of peace.
[05:32] Yumika
    I decline the offer.
[05:33] Kidou
    The secret Ninja Core
    is the progenitor of Ninja Cores,
[05:37] Kidou
    as well as a limitless energy source.
[05:40] Kidou
    That's right, isn't it?
[05:42] Kidou
    If that were combined with modern technology,
[05:45] Kidou
    it would bring about great
    developments for ninjas.
[05:50] Kidou
    How could there be any reason
    to seal it away, or worse, destroy it?
[05:56] Yumika
    It's the same reason you don't
    let a baby hold sharp objects.
[06:00] Kidou
    I am perplexed.
[06:02] Kidou
    You aren't even a ninja.
[06:05] Kidou
    Why would you throw your life away like this?
[06:09] Kidou
    Is it that your ego as the Iga Chief—
    your pride—drives you to do so?
[06:17] Yumika
    I doubt you would understand.
[06:28] Karajishi
    Your punishment is set
    to be carried out tomorrow.
[06:31] Karajishi
    Make your decision by then.
[06:44] Kirei
    Hark! I verily as the something-th
    successor to Iga...
[06:52] Ittoki
    Cut it out! Give me a break.
[06:55] Ryoko
    Kirei is just trying to cheer
    you up with humor. Right?
[06:59] Kirei
    What?
[07:00] Kirei
    That's—
[07:02] Kirei
    Sure, let's go with that, I guess.
[07:05] Kirei
    Just me being the nice
     Kirei you know and love.
[07:08] Ryoko
    Ittoki, you're remarkable.
[07:10] Ryoko
    Despite the circumstances,
    you're carrying out your role.
[07:13] Ittoki
    But Ryoko, your dad and village are also...
[07:17] Ryoko
    He's the picture of a stubborn craftsman,
[07:21] Ryoko
    so I'm sure he's just completely
    absorbed in his work.
[07:26] Ittoki
    You're welcome to stay here
    as long as you need.
[07:31] Ryoko
    I offer my humblest thanks, Acting Chief.
[07:34] Kirei
    I shall humbly piggy-back on
    your magnanimity, Acting Chief.
[07:39] Ittoki
    Cut it out!
[07:40] Tokisada
    Ittoki. Kousetsu. Come with me.
[07:55] Kozo
    They're executing the chief?!
    Are you sure that's true?
[07:58] Tokisada
    The information comes
    from the NSC. It's solid.
[08:00] Chikamatsu
    To hell with that!
[08:01] Chikamatsu
    Hey! Gather everyone who can move!
[08:03] Reiha
    And then what?
[08:05] Chikamatsu
    We rescue the chief. What else?
[08:08] Kozo
    Hold on.
[08:08] Chikamatsu
    What reason is there to stop me?
[08:10] Kozo
    This would be declaring war on the NSC!
[08:14] Kozo
    It would turn everyone against Iga.
    It could bring down the entire village!
[08:19] Chikamatsu
    This is no time to sit back and debate!
    The chief's life is on the line!
[08:24] Reiha
    Whatever we choose to do,
    we don't have enough information.
[08:27] Reiha
    First, let's calm down
    and assess the situation.
[08:30] Tokisada
    The sentence will be carried out tomorrow.
[08:32] Tokisada
    If we don't decide now,
    it will be too late.
[08:40] Kozo
    It's too cruel to put this on him.
    The rest of us can handle this.
[08:43] Tokisada
    Ittoki, expel me from the village.
[08:47] Tokisada
    I'll save Yumika.
[08:49] Tokisada
    If you expel me first, Iga won't
    be deemed responsible.
[08:52] Kozo
    No. That will only serve
    as a stopgap measure.
[08:55] Shiota
    But they've destroyed the rules.
    What other path is there?
[09:00] Reiha
    But then what about Tokisada?
[09:02] Tokisada
    There's no right choice.
    You can only choose the least bad option.
[09:07] Tokisada
    Ittoki.
[09:23] Ittoki
    Kou...setsu...
[09:25] Kozo
    What are you doing? Release him!
[09:27] Kousetsu
    Expel me. I'll go save her, too.
[09:30] Kousetsu
    I can't understand your hesitation.
[09:32] Kousetsu
    I have no family.
[09:35] Kousetsu
    None.
[09:37] Kousetsu
    Only Yumika...
[09:48] (Flashback) Yumika
    What's wrong, dear?
[09:51] (Flashback) Yumika
    Where are your mom and dad?
[09:58] (Flashback) Tokisada
    We should place her with an orphanage.
[10:01] (Flashback) Yumika
    She can be my child.
[10:14] Kousetsu
    She's all I have.
    Isn't she all you have too?
[10:19] Kousetsu
    If you won't give the order,
    I'll do it anyway.
[10:21] Reiha
    Calm down!
[10:22] Reiha
    You, too, Tokisada.
[10:23] Reiha
    What will you do afterwards?
[10:25] Kozo
    We can't have you or the chief running
    for the rest of your lives!
[10:28] Kousetsu
    Shut up! It's better than losing her!
[10:31] Ittoki
    K-Kousetsu...
[10:34] Ittoki
    Thank you.
[10:43] Ittoki
    I will not expel them.
[10:45] Ittoki
    Rescue the chief as Iga ninjas.
[10:54] Ittoki
    Every moment matters. We can't avoid
    taking somewhat forceful measures.
[10:57] Ittoki
    Set off after making full preparations
[11:01] Ittoki
    so as not to be found out
    by Koga or the NSC.
[11:04] Ittoki
    Also,
[11:07] Ittoki
    do as much as you can not to hurt people.
[11:11] Tokisada
    Yes, sir.
[11:12] Ittoki
    Kousetsu, I leave Mom in your hands.
[11:16] Ittoki
    As for the rest of you,
[11:17] Ittoki
    I task you with gathering information
    to prove the chief's innocence.
[11:21] Ittoki
    If we can't rely on the NSC to do it,
    we'll have set things right ourselves.
[11:26] Kozo
    Yes, sir.
[11:27] Ittoki
    We...
[11:30] Ittoki
    We have done nothing wrong.
[11:32] Ittoki
    And so we'll hold our heads
    up high and prove that!
[11:38] Ittoki
    Thank you for all your assistance.
[11:47] Enbi
    Welcome back, Acting Chief.
[11:50] Kidou
    I'm holding a meeting.
    Summon the executives.
[11:55] Enbi
    It's finally happening, isn't it?
[12:01] Secretary
    Acting Chief, you have a visitor.
[12:04] Kidou
    Who?
[12:05] Secretary
    Suzaku Ban.
[12:09] Kidou
    Let him through.
[12:12] Kidou
    Did you know about this?
[12:14] Housen
    No, sir.
[12:17] Suzaku
    Pardon my interruption.
[12:19] Suzaku
    I came because I have information
    to give directly to the acting chief.
[12:24] Suzaku
    I received a report from a spy I sent to Iga
[12:27] Suzaku
    that Tokisada Kaga has left the village
    and headed to recover the Iga Chief.
[12:35] Suzaku
    Given that Iga's greatest
    asset will be absent,
[12:37] Suzaku
    I believe now is the perfect
    chance to attack.
[12:41] Kidou
    Good work. You may leave.
[12:47] Suzaku
    Though it is presumptuous, I have
    a request I'd like to make, Acting Chief.
[12:51] Suzaku
    When the attack on Iga occurs,
    might I be included in a front-line unit?
[12:58] Kidou
    I have heard of your excellence.
    Your proposal is quite welcome.
[13:03] Housen
    Hold on, sir. Suzaku is still a child.
[13:06] Suzaku
    Thank you for this opportunity.
    I will not disappoint you.
[13:09] Housen
    Suzaku!
[13:10] Kidou
    Go meet up with the units being formed.
[13:14] Suzaku
    Thank you, sir.
[13:17] Housen
    Suzaku!
[13:19] Suzaku
    I'm not a child!
[13:21] Suzaku
    I'll decide what I do with my life.
[13:28] Housen
    Is using force to twist
     others into submission
[13:31] Housen
    part of Chief Kishinmaru's ideals?
[13:35] Suzaku
    Backing down now would
    only make me a coward.
[13:52] Kidou
    This meeting to make the final decision
    on whether to attack Iga will now begin.
[13:56] Kidou
    Enbi.
[13:57] Enbi
    Yes, sir.
[13:57] Enbi
    We were able to deploy more
    Asura squads than anticipated.
[14:01] Enbi
    If we add the Koga units to the equation,
[14:04] Enbi
    we'll have a force roughly
    ten times the strength of Iga's.
[14:06] Enbi
    Further, after tracking Tokisada's movements,
[14:10] Enbi
    we confirmed he has left the city of Iga.
[14:13] Enbi
    We lost track of him afterwards,
[14:14] Enbi
    but it seems safe to conclude he is
    indeed heading to rescue Iga's chief.
[14:18] Enbi
    With him out of the way, victory is certain.
[14:21] Kidou
    Housen.
[14:23] Enbi
    What is it?
[14:26] Housen
    I...
[14:27] Housen
    oppose the attack on Iga.
[14:31] Moderate Faction
    We support Housen's position.
[14:34] Enbi
    You bastards were running
    around conspiring in secret?
[14:38] Enbi
    What're you chickening out for?
[14:40] Housen
    To start with, the Asura are unfinished.
[14:42] Housen
    To introduce them on the front
    line in a large-scale battle
[14:46] Housen
    without prior operational
    success is premature.
[14:48] Enbi
    And how many years will it take if
    we go through all that crap?
[14:52] Enbi
    We have numbers. Crushing
    a puny village is small—
[14:56] Housen
    We must not underestimate Iga's strength!
[14:58] Housen
    This operation isn't like the others.
[15:00] Housen
    Great damage to Koga will be unavoidable.
[15:03] Enbi
    This is vengeance for Chief Kishinmaru!
[15:05] Enbi
    Of course we're prepared
    to shed blood for it!
[15:10] Housen
    Revenge has no shred
    of rationality or productivity.
[15:14] Housen
    We cannot expose Koga
    to danger for such a thing.
[15:17] Housen
    Up to now, I considered
    a little fighting inevitable
[15:20] Housen
    for the ultimate benefit of the village.
[15:23] Housen
    But I can confidently state
[15:26] Housen
    that this operation is folly
    that will close off Koga's future.
[15:31] Housen
    Please, sir. Reconsider.
[15:36] Kidou
    Very well.
[15:40] Housen
    Thank you, sir, for—
[15:51] Kidou
    Housen, you are always right.
[15:55] Kidou
    I'm sure you must be right
    this time as well.
[16:00] Kidou
    But...
[16:01] Kidou
    Koga has no place for cowards.
[16:06] Tamura
    Hey, how do you think Ittoki is doing?
[16:08] Boy 1
    Nobody can get in contact with him, right?
[16:11] Tamura
    He's probably found a cute girlfriend
    in Tokyo and forgotten all about us.
[16:16] City Announcement
    An important city-wide announcement.
[16:18] City Announcement
    Due to a fire at a chemical
    plant outside the city,
[16:21] City Announcement
    there is a risk of a toxic gas leak.
[16:23] City Announcement
    Please take shelter indoors promptly.
[16:25] Tamura
    What? Gas?
[16:26] Boy 1
    Whoa, it's for real. It's on the news.
[16:29] Leader
    Hey! Stop! Stop!
[16:31] Employee
    What's going on?
[16:33] Leader
    Unexploded ordnance was found in the area.
[16:35] Employee
    What? Like a bomb?
[16:37] Leader
    We're pulling out for today.
[16:39] Kirei
    Hey, it looks like it's bad news
    all around out there.
[16:44] Ittoki
    What? Toxic gas?
[16:46] Kirei
    And unexploded ordnance.
[16:51] Kirei
    Huh? Is the signal bad?
[16:54] Ryoko
    Do you think Kousetsu is okay?
[16:58] Kozo
    Acting Chief, we have an emergency.
[17:00] Ittoki
    I just saw the news.
[17:02] Kozo
    That's all Koga information manipulation.
[17:07] Kozo
    When ninjas launch a large-scale attack,
[17:10] Kozo
    doing it at night isn't enough
    to conceal everything.
[17:13] Kozo
    You have to block your
    target's eyes and ears.
[17:16] Kozo
    Judging by the methods used, it's safe
    to assume this is Koga interference.
[17:21] Ittoki
    But... that would mean...
[17:23] Kozo
    Yes. It's a clear violation
    of the Ninja Ordinances.
[17:26] Kozo
    Koga has decided to invade
    Iga village by any means necessary.
[17:30] Kozo
    This is war!
[17:45] Reiha
    We'll make this the command center
    and last line of defense.
[17:49] Reiha
    We'll ready Iga territory
    to respond to attack.
[17:52] Ittoki
    Good. Proceed.
[18:08] Reiha
    This way.
[18:16] Shige
    I never thought we'd use
    this in my lifetime.
[18:38] Shige
    Fire Technique Defense
    System fully deployed.
[18:41] Shige
    Launch!
[18:51] Shige
    Yes!
[18:57] Shige
    I'm not done yet!
[19:13] Shige
    I'm happy to die a shinobi's death.
[19:23] Kozo
    Shige!
[19:24] Reiha
    That's 21% of the detected Koga forces down.
[19:29] Reiha
    First defense line breached.
    They're about to enter the city.
[19:38] Chikamatsu
    They can't just do
    as they please in our village.
[19:40] Yokogawa
    We'll take everything they did to us
    'til now and pay it right back to them.
[19:46] Shiota
    Ms. Tsune.
[19:47] Shiota
    You can relax at home.
[19:49] Tsune
    It's my village. I want to protect it.
[19:53] Tsune
    Here they come.
[20:03] Security Guard
    Hold on, you two.
[20:06] Tokisada
    What's up?
[20:07] Security Guard
    What're you doing over here?
[20:09] Kousetsu
    Like, going to the concert!
[20:12] Kousetsu
    Like, whoa, this guard is scary!
[20:14] Kousetsu
    Help, Poobear!
[20:16] Tokisada
    Hey, bub! Wha'd'ya think
    you're doin' to my honeypie?
[20:19] Security Guard
    This area is off limits.
    Authorized personnel only.
[20:22] Security Guard
    Just leave, please.
[20:23] Tokisada
    Bingo.
[20:28] Tokisada
    We break through and scram
    before NSC reinforcements arrive.
[20:32] Tokisada
    Ready?
[20:34] Kousetsu
    Ready.
[20:50] Tokisada
    We came to get you.
[20:52] Yumika
    Tokisada! Kousetsu!
[20:53] Tokisada
    No time. We'll talk later.
[20:56] Yumika
    Why?
[20:57] Tokisada
    It was the acting chief's decision.
[21:01] Tokisada
    He's doing well.
[21:05] Yumika
    Kousetsu.
[21:08] Yumika
    Thank you.
[21:19] Tokisada
    That's nasty of them.
[21:21] Karajishi
    Now what do I do?
[21:23] Karajishi
    There's no punishment more severe than
    what you were sentenced to already.
[21:26] Karajishi
    You're under arrest for
    escaping from custody.
[23:02] Captain
    Now we split into front-line
    and defense line units.
[23:05] Captain
    We need to gain control
    of their headquarters by dawn.
[23:09] Moderate Faction
    Su-ku... Suzaku!
[23:11] Moderate Faction
    Your father...
[23:12] Moderate Faction
    Kidou killed him!
[23:15] Moderate Faction
    You're in danger, too. Run as—
[23:18] Captain
    Now we get revenge for Chief Kishinmaru!
[23:26] Kousetsu
    The fight ends, and dawn breaks.
[23:30] Kousetsu
    What is left in your hands?
[23:34] Kousetsu
    Next time on Shinobi no Ittoki
    episode 9: "In the Light of Dawn."
