[00:04] Kahaku
A mysterious entity sent to this world...
[00:08] Kahaku
Fushi, a being with eternal life.
[00:13] Kahaku
The emotions, pain, and deaths of
those he meets cause Fushi to grow,
[00:22] Kahaku
and to acquire.
[00:26] Kahaku
Fushi's travels continue.
[00:30] Kahaku
I can only hope that his travels
are to his own benefit.
SIGN Infatuation Reborn
[02:35] Villager
Good.
[02:39] Villager 2
Thanks.
[02:43] Villager 3
It's still fresh!
[02:45] Villager 3
Come get a look up close!
[02:48] Villager 4
Hey.
[02:49] Villager 5
What's that?
[02:51] Villager 4
What's wrong?
[02:58] Dad
Run!
[03:00] Girl
Dad!
[03:14] Brother
Hurry!
[04:02] 50s Fushi
Hey, how long has it been
since I came to this island?
[04:08] Beholder
Almost forty years.
[04:12] 50s Fushi
What the hell have I been
doing all these years?
[04:16] Beholder
You are tasked with preserving all of creation.
[04:20] 50s Fushi
I get that.
[04:22] 50s Fushi
But how long do I have to keep it up?
[04:26] Beholder
Let's say, when you're able to replicate
that ocean, you're complete.
[04:32] 50s Fushi
Is this not good enough?
[04:34] Beholder
You need awareness.
[04:38] Beholder
Awareness that it belongs to you.
[04:42] 50s Fushi
It'll be another thousand years.
[04:50] Beholder
Are you lonely?
[04:51] 50s Fushi
I'm bored.
[04:53] Beholder
Why not go back in the water and
play with your buddies in the sea?
[04:57] 50s Fushi
Quit it.
[04:58] 50s Fushi
That was a horrible experience.
[05:00] 50s Fushi
I can't even eat fish anymore.
[05:04] 50s Fushi
That was another time I tried
to fight back against it.
[05:09] 50s Fushi
No...
[05:13] Pioran
What is your dream, Fushi?
[05:17] Pioran
Do what you want to do, like I did!
[05:21] 50s Fushi
So I'm not going to see anyone anymore.
[05:25] 50s Fushi
That was what I decided to do.
[05:27] 50s Fushi
That I would live my life as a crab.
[05:30] (Flashback) Beholder
Fantastic.
[05:32] (Flashback) Beholder
I see that you're trying to obtain things
that you couldn't in human form.
[05:37] (Flashback) Crab Fushi
What the heck is this?!
[05:38] (Flashback) Crab Fushi
Why?!
[05:41] 50s Fushi
That species had no eyesight.
[05:44] 50s Fushi
My memory after that becomes hazy.
[05:49] 50s Fushi
I took on all sorts of forms.
[05:58] 50s Fushi
The black thing tells me I traveled
the ocean for about two years.
[06:12] 50s Fushi
I've been buddies with this guy the whole time.
[06:14] 50s Fushi
It's nice to me, even though I can't see well.
[06:17] 50s Fushi
Once I quit being human, I didn't have
to think too hard about anything.
[06:20] 50s Fushi
I'd just picture the foods
and scents that I liked,
[06:23] 50s Fushi
and I'd occasionally have to be alert.
[06:25] 50s Fushi
That was it.
[06:26] 50s Fushi
But if this guy died, I'd be lonely again.
[06:30] 50s Fushi
And just as I was thinking that...
[06:33] 50s Fushi
It abandoned me.
[06:42] (Flashback) Beholder
The Nokkers are here.
[06:44] 50s Fushi
I immediately remembered
Pioran and the others again.
[06:49] 50s Fushi
I remembered that I couldn't defeat
my enemies, the Nokkers, by myself.
[06:59] Fushi
These exploding arrows are useful!
[07:06] Fushi
There are still more Nokkers!
[07:11] Fushi
Longer bows seem to work
better with Uroy's body.
[07:22] 50s Fushi
I'd suddenly be wracked with guilt.
[07:26] 50s Fushi
I hated living my life on
top of everyone's deaths.
[07:30] 50s Fushi
At the same time, I didn't want
to lose everyone, either.
[07:39] 50s Fushi
The Nokkers kept coming.
[07:42] 50s Fushi
I fought them, defeated them, and ate.
[07:48] 50s Fushi
Forty years...
[07:51] 50s Fushi
I wonder how everyone's doing.
[07:54] 50s Fushi
Rean and Tonari must be pretty old now.
[08:00] 50s Fushi
I'm sure they're fine.
[08:02] Beholder
Sorry to interrupt your sulking.
[08:04] 50s Fushi
Not again. Where are they now?
[08:07] Beholder
They're already rampaging.
[08:09] Beholder
Off this island.
[08:11] 50s Fushi
Why aren't they coming here?
[08:13] Beholder
Maybe they've given up on you.
[08:16] Beholder
Either they're trying to clear out everyone
around you, or they're trying to lure you out.
[08:20] 50s Fushi
Are you telling me they're attacking people?
[08:24] 50s Fushi
Take me there!
[08:25] Beholder
It'll take you at least
a month to get there.
[08:28] Beholder
Are you going to fall
for their provocations?
[08:29] 50s Fushi
People might die!
[08:32] Beholder
People are already dying. It's too late.
[08:36] 50s Fushi
Damn it!
[08:37] 50s Fushi
Worthless Nokkers!
[08:39] 50s Fushi
Freaking cowards!
[08:42] 50s Fushi
Try being smarter!
[08:47] 50s Fushi
We're going. We're leaving the island.
[08:50] Beholder
All right.
[08:53] 50s Fushi
I don't know if I can make it alone, though.
[08:56] 50s Fushi
No, that's not my concern right now.
[08:58] Hisame
I've finally found you, Fushi.
[09:02] Hisame
Nice to meet you. I'm Hisame.
[09:04] Hisame
My grandmother, Hayase, was in your debt.
[09:06] 50s Fushi
Grandmother? You're Hayase's grandchild?
[09:09] Hisame
Yes. I've been tasked with leading the
Guardians, who are here to protect you.
[09:13] Hisame
So I came to—
[09:13] 50s Fushi
Stop! How did you find...
[09:18] Hisame
I looked for you all over!
[09:21] Hisame
I came here eager to finally meet you.
[09:24] 50s Fushi
Get away.
[09:27] Hisame
You kinda smell.
[09:29] Hisame
Are you washing yourself?
[09:32] 50s Fushi
Wait, what brought that on?
[09:34] Hisame
I'm sorry. My mother taught me to do that.
[09:37] 50s Fushi
Your mother? You mean Hayase's daughter?
[09:40] 50s Fushi
What happened to Hayase?
[09:41] Hisame
She passed away before I was born.
[09:44] 50s Fushi
Oh, really? She's dead, huh?
[09:47] Hisame
The way you say that...
[09:48] Hisame
It said in my grandmother's autobiography
that you're a kind person who values life.
[09:55] 50s Fushi
Does it say anywhere that she killed
two people that I cared about?
[10:00] Hisame
Yes, it was an appropriate action.
[10:03] 50s Fushi
Appropriate?
[10:04] 50s Fushi
How old are you?
[10:06] Hisame
Nine.
[10:07] 50s Fushi
You don't understand anything, then.
[10:09] 50s Fushi
Poor kid...
[10:11] 50s Fushi
The grown-ups have got you brainwashed.
[10:13] Hisame
It's a good thing not to know.
[10:16] Hisame
It means I get to have new surprises and
moving experiences for the first time.
[10:20] Hisame
About what's right and wrong,
about you, and about love...
[10:27] 50s Fushi
Yeah, you're right.
[10:30] 50s Fushi
Can I go now?
[10:32] 50s Fushi
I have to be somewhere.
[10:33] Hisame
I'll go with you.
[10:35] Hisame
As a Guardian, I must protect
you from the monsters.
[10:38] 50s Fushi
You? A nine-year-old?
[10:40] 50s Fushi
Don't come to me for help if it attacks you.
[10:41] Hisame
I know.
[10:43] 50s Fushi
Suit yourself.
[10:44] Hisame
I will!
[10:46] 50s Fushi
Hey! What is your deal? You're creeping me out.
[10:49] 50s Fushi
Give me, like, five meters of space.
[10:52] Hisame
I apologize.
[11:02] Hisame
Come eat with us. It's delicious.
[11:04] 50s Fushi
I'll pass. I have this.
[11:07] Hisame
What is that?
[11:09] 50s Fushi
Nokker jerky.
[11:11] Hisame
Don't eat such a strange thing!
[11:14] Hisame
Have some of this, please.
[11:16] 50s Fushi
No, thanks.
[11:17] 50s Fushi
I'm going now.
[11:20] Hisame
Goodnight.
[11:26] Hisame
I've made some tea. Here.
[11:28] Hisame
There's a hole here. Shall I sew it up?
[11:30] Hisame
May I help?
[11:32] Hisame
Shall I scrub your back?
[11:37] 50s Fushi
Good. I'm far enough away.
[11:40] 50s Fushi
If I go to where the Nokkers are attacking,
I might just attract even more of them.
[11:45] 50s Fushi
But I might be able to help people if
I make good use of Hisame's group.
[11:52] 50s Fushi
Hisame...
[11:54] 50s Fushi
She may be Hayase's granddaughter,
but she doesn't seem like a threat.
[12:12] Hisame
No!
[12:14] 50s Fushi
What?!
[12:15] Hisame
I'm sorry. I just wanted
to sleep next to you.
[12:19] 50s Fushi
This pain...
[12:21] 50s Fushi
Let me see!
[12:22] Beholder
What a surprise.
[12:25] Beholder
So this is the Nokkers' idea of a clever plan.
[12:29] 50s Fushi
He's been keeping it from me on purpose!
[12:31] Hisame
I'm sorry.
[12:33] Hisame
I didn't mean to surprise you.
[12:35] Hisame
My hand just moved on its own.
[12:36] 50s Fushi
Did you try to attack me?
[12:38] 50s Fushi
"Guardians," my ass.
[12:40] 50s Fushi
I'll cut it off.
[12:43] Hisame
Don't do that!
[12:45] Hisame
This Nokker was passed down from
my grandmother to my mother,
[12:47] Hisame
and from my mother to me.
[12:49] Hisame
It's the very will of the Guardians!
[12:51] 50s Fushi
Huh?
[12:51] Hisame
It lives by drinking my blood.
[12:54] Hisame
It does as I say.
[12:56] Hisame
There, there.
[12:58] Hisame
See? It's okay now.
[13:00] 50s Fushi
You can speak with it?
[13:02] Hisame
No.
[13:03] Hisame
But it understands what I'm saying.
[13:05] Hisame
It understands who I am.
[13:08] Hisame
I am Hayase's reincarnation.
[13:11] 50s Fushi
What?
[13:13] Hisame
My grandmother had told my mother that
she would be born into my mother's womb.
[13:17] Hisame
I'm truly sorry.
[13:20] Hisame
I'll sleep over there.
[13:24] 50s Fushi
Uh-huh...
[13:34] 50s Fushi
To think the Nokkers and Hayase had come
up with such a crazy relationship...
[13:39] Beholder
No matter how far you go, until you crush
it, it will keep coming back to you.
[13:43] 50s Fushi
I don't care. It's for my peace of mind.
[13:46] Beholder
Humans do come up with some
remarkable methods to avoid dying.
[13:51] Beholder
It's true that, as long as the will is
passed down, their existence is continued.
[13:54] 50s Fushi
Cut it out with the reincarnation stuff!
[13:57] 50s Fushi
You're going to mess up my mind.
[13:59] 50s Fushi
What the hell is that thing?
[14:02] Beholder
To animate an animal, you need a vessel in
the form of flesh, and the fye to fill it.
[14:07] Beholder
To move fye from one vessel to another
may be what you call "reincarnation."
[14:13] 50s Fushi
Hang on.
[14:15] 50s Fushi
Wh-What's fye?
[14:17] Beholder
Fye is the energy that moves a vessel.
[14:20] Beholder
Humans call it "souls" and "spirits."
[14:24] Beholder
You can sense it, I'm sure...
[14:26] Beholder
The moment all the sensation
coming from a living thing
[14:30] Beholder
is completely erased and becomes empty.
[14:32] Beholder
When the vessel breaks, the fye is released.
[14:36] Beholder
It becomes free to do as it
wants and go where it pleases.
[14:43] 50s Fushi
So... Pioran and Gugu and March...
[14:47] 50s Fushi
And everyone else who died...
[14:49] Beholder
They've each gone somewhere
of their own will.
[14:55] Beholder
It wouldn't be surprising if Hayase
had died with such strong intent
[14:58] Beholder
that her fye would carry into
the vessel known as Hisame.
[15:02] Beholder
Though her memories are erased,
[15:05] Beholder
so she would live life as an almost
entirely different person.
[15:09] 50s Fushi
Th-Then...
[15:11] 50s Fushi
Hisame is Hisame, right?
[15:12] 50s Fushi
She isn't Hayase, is she?
[15:14] Beholder
That's right. Is something bothering you?
[15:18] 50s Fushi
It's not as if she was the one
who killed March and Parona,
[15:21] 50s Fushi
but I don't feel comfortable around her.
[15:23] 50s Fushi
And it doesn't feel right hating a nine-year-old
girl when she has nothing against me.
[15:29] Beholder
You were tormented by
Hayase for a long time.
[15:32] Beholder
It's nothing that shouldn't be expected.
[15:34] Beholder
It's a common human defense mechanism.
[15:38] Beholder
If you're upset by the current situation,
you ought to build up some immunity.
[15:42] 50s Fushi
Immunity?
[15:43] Beholder
Approach her a little at a time.
[15:46] Beholder
It'll be painful in the beginning,
but you'll soon overcome it.
[15:49] Beholder
It's arduous because you
don't know her well.
[15:53] Beholder
What do you want to do, Fushi?
[16:01] Hisame
There he is!
[16:02] Hisame
I was worried about you!
[16:04] Hisame
Please don't wander off like that!
[16:06] 50s Fushi
I woke up early to make boats.
[16:09] 50s Fushi
Gotta row to the next island, after all.
[16:11] Hisame
Thank you, Fushi.
[16:15] Hisame
I'm sitting here.
[16:32] Hisame
Yay! I got one!
[16:34] Hisame
Let's have it for dinner, Fushi.
[16:36] 50s Fushi
No, thanks.
[16:37] Hisame
But I caught it for us...
[16:42] 50s Fushi
Hey, Hisame...
[16:43] 50s Fushi
You should go somewhere to have a
doctor get rid of that creepy thing.
[16:47] Hisame
I said I don't want to.
[16:48] 50s Fushi
You're young.
[16:50] 50s Fushi
You don't need to have someone
controlling you yet.
[16:54] Hisame
I knew you'd be a kind person.
[17:00] Hisame
Over there?
[17:02] 50s Fushi
Yeah.
[17:03] 50s Fushi
It was attacked a month ago.
[17:06] Hisame
I'll go take a look, if you'd like.
[17:10] Hisame
You're scared that more Nokkers
would come, aren't you?
[17:13] Hisame
I've heard something about that.
[17:15] 50s Fushi
You'll do that?
[17:17] Hisame
It's the job of the
Guardians to support you.
[17:21] Hisame
Wait here.
[17:23] Hisame
I'll be back by evening if I'm quick.
[17:26] 50s Fushi
Thanks.
[17:28] Hisame
Of course!
[17:33] 50s Fushi
She's late.
[17:35] 50s Fushi
Could the village have been
in a really bad state?
[17:38] (Flashback) Beholder
People are already dying. It's too late.
[17:44] 50s Fushi
Shut up.
[17:48] Tonari
Hey, you there.
[17:50] Tonari
Are you here to check up on the
village that's been attacked?
[17:53] Fushi
No, I...
[17:55] Tonari
We are, too.
[17:56] Tonari
Worrying, isn't it?
[17:57] Tonari
We're here to give aid to the village,
[17:59] Tonari
and we just got some time for a break.
[18:01] Sandel
Some corpses had emerged
from a nearby graveyard.
[18:06] Sandel
Everyone's evacuated already, though.
Only a few villagers remain.
[18:10] Fushi
How many died?
[18:11] Tonari
Six dead, 33 injured.
[18:16] Tonari
When did you get here?
[18:18] 50s Fushi
This morning.
[18:19] Tonari
That's odd.
[18:21] Tonari
I thought the Nokkers always
come for you, Fushi.
[18:24] 50s Fushi
You know me?
[18:26] Tonari
The white-haired immortal.
[18:27] Tonari
You're famous. You didn't know?
[18:29] Sandel
We hear rumors about you all over.
[18:31] 50s Fushi
No way...
[18:32] 50s Fushi
I've been on my own for a really long time.
[18:35] Tonari
Oh, yeah! There was this silly little girl
who blabbed about you all the time.
[18:40] Tonari
And those "Guardians"
people are your fan club.
[18:44] Tonari
They go into the city daily to talk
about you and gain more believers.
[18:49] Tonari
You'd best be careful.
[18:51] Tonari
They just want to own you.
[18:53] Hisame
I heard that.
[18:54] Tonari
Oh, my! Is it you?!
[18:56] Hisame
You'd better not badmouth the Guardians.
[18:59] Hisame
Who are you two?
[19:00] Sandel
Doctors.
[19:02] Sandel
We've been treating the
wounded in the village.
[19:04] Hisame
I see! Thank you.
[19:06] 50s Fushi
Um...
[19:07] Hisame
I told the village elder about you,
and they insist that you use their room.
[19:11] Hisame
Let's stay there tonight.
[19:12] Tonari
Perfect!
[19:13] Tonari
Let's go out for dinner together.
[19:16] Tonari
Thank you so much for treating us.
[19:19] Hisame
If it'll make you like us,
I'll provide as much as you'd like.
[19:24] Tonari
Should I, though? You already have
plenty of believers, don't you?
[19:27] Hisame
Yes, thank you.
[19:29] Hisame
We've gathered a nation's worth of
believers in the past forty years.
[19:32] Hisame
But we need even more people to
learn of our goals and join us.
[19:37] Tonari
I don't know...
[19:39] Tonari
It looks to me like your
organization's just obsessed
[19:41] Tonari
with showing off that Fushi belongs to you.
[19:44] Hisame
That's a misunderstanding.
[19:46] Hisame
This man has been hiding on an
island because of the Nokkers.
[19:50] Hisame
Our duty is to free him
from his emotional prison
[19:53] Hisame
and give him a place to belong.
[19:56] Tonari
But your work so far has
involved capturing Fushi twice
[20:01] Tonari
and being frustrated when
he got away both times.
[20:04] Hisame
You know a lot about the folklore.
[20:06] Hisame
We didn't capture him. We gave him shelter.
[20:08] Hisame
We protect him from the unknown,
[20:10] Hisame
and we protect the people
from him, another unknown.
[20:13] Hisame
Those are our two goals.
[20:17] Tonari
It looks like there haven't been any
grown-ups around to take care of you.
[20:22] Hisame
That's completely uncalled for!
[20:24] 50s Fushi
May I?
[20:26] 50s Fushi
I don't care about any of this.
[20:28] 50s Fushi
Or about the past.
[20:30] 50s Fushi
Not anymore, at least.
[20:32] 50s Fushi
Anyway, doctor...
[20:34] 50s Fushi
Could you remove this mass?
[20:37] Sandel
It's alive, isn't it?
[20:39] Tonari
I'm amazed you survived, Hisame-san.
[20:43] Hisame
I'm a bit thirsty.
[20:45] Servant
Shall I make tea?
[20:46] Hisame
Yes.
[20:47] Hisame
For the others, as well.
[20:49] Servant
Yes.
[20:55] Tonari
Hey, Fushi...
[20:57] Tonari
Have you heard of the silver bat?
[20:59] Fushi
No.
[21:00] Tonari
There were people who ate it long ago,
not knowing it was poisonous.
[21:04] Tonari
Being the idiot I was,
I wanted to try something.
[21:07] Tonari
First, I swallowed a sand
grain's worth of it.
[21:12] Tonari
It made me nauseous and hurt my
stomach so much, I thought I'd die.
[21:15] Tonari
But I did it once every
two days, and eventually,
[21:18] Tonari
it stopped affecting me at all.
[21:21] Tonari
Next, I ate a whole morsel.
[21:23] Tonari
I felt like dying again.
[21:25] Tonari
But I kept it up for a month.
[21:29] Tonari
Then I ate a whole bat.
[21:31] Tonari
Once again, I felt like I'd die,
[21:33] Tonari
and I ate it for a month.
[21:35] 50s Fushi
And you ended up all right?
[21:41] Tonari
Western morning glory.
[21:44] Tonari
That's a flavor that takes me back.
[21:46] Tonari
May I have more?
[21:53] Tonari
I became curious about other kinds
of poisons, so I tried them out.
[21:57] Tonari
Seed frogs, sea keelback, bitter turnips...
[22:00] Tonari
I've put all kinds of things in
my body over the past forty years.
[22:03] Hisame
What are you talking about?
[22:06] Tonari
The reason I did all that is because
it reminded me of the past.
[22:11] Tonari
I've been poisoned several times.
[22:14] Servant
Here you are.
[22:15] Tonari
But I'd always be the quickest to recover.
[22:26] Servant
This tastes like bane lotus tea.
[22:30] Servant
In half a minute, you lose your ability to
speak, and in a few minutes, you're dead.
[22:34] Servant
The Takunaha would often
use it to kill Yanome.
[22:38] Servant
It's been used against me, too.
[22:41] Tonari
That's about thirty seconds, right?
[22:44] Hisame
Hold her!
[22:47] Tonari
People who've been poisoned
are strong against poison.
[22:54] Hisame
Tonari...
[22:57] Hisame
of Jananda!

After forty years, fate is set in motion.

Hisame, who pursues Fushi,
and Tonari of Jananda, who opposes her...
[24:47] Beholder
What effect does Fushi's reunion
with old friends have on him?
