SIGN    Azuchi Castle, Tensho 8 (1580)
[00:06] Mitsuhide
    What's the matter, Ranmaru-dono?
[00:10] Ranmaru
    Mitsuhide-sama.
[00:12] Mitsuhide
    Forgive me. I had to ask,
    since you seemed so forlorn.
[00:18] Ranmaru
    Oh, dear. It appears you
    caught me lost in thought.
[00:21] Mitsuhide
    Is there something worrying you?
[00:25] Ranmaru
    Well...
[00:26] Mitsuhide
    Hmm?
[00:27] Ranmaru
    Milord bestowed this sword to me.
[00:33] Mitsuhide
    Is that... Fudou Yukimitsu?
[00:46] Ranmaru
    What's the matter?
[00:50] Mitsuhide
    "Fudou Yukimitsu, Tsukumogami the tea caddy,
[00:53] Mitsuhide
    and Niwa Nagahide, all three are mine!"
[00:57] Mitsuhide
    When our lord is drinking in a jolly mood,
[01:00] Mitsuhide
    he often smacks his knees
[01:02] Mitsuhide
    and recites that poem out loud.
[01:04] Mitsuhide
    That sword is a treasure equal to any land.
[01:08] Toshimitsu
    But why would our lord give it to Ranmaru-dono?
[01:13] Yukimasa
    It is far too valuable for a mere boy to wield.
[01:16] Mitsuhide
    It simply means our lord treasures
    Mori Ranmaru above all.
[01:24] Mitsuhide
    What's wrong?
[01:25] Mitsuhide
    Are you displeased?
[01:27] Ranmaru
    It just feels almost like milord
    is giving me a keepsake.
[01:31] Ranmaru
    I'm getting a bad feeling in my stomach.
[01:35] Mitsuhide
    What are you saying?
    Our lord is alive and well.
[01:39] Mitsuhide
    That sword is no keepsake.
    Cherish it for the rest of your life.
[01:44] Mitsuhide
    Now, we have matters to attend to. Farewell.
[01:55] Ranmaru
    "Fudou Yukimitsu, Tsukumogami the tea caddy,
[01:58] Ranmaru
    and Niwa Nagahide, all three are mine!"

SIGN    Episode Five
    Reunions and Conflicts
[03:50] Yamanbagiri
    Nobunaga's holding a tea party
    the day before the Honnoji Incident,
[03:55] Yamanbagiri
    not knowing that he is fated to die tomorrow.
[03:58] Yamanbagiri
    How carefree.
[04:00] Mikazuki
    Nobunaga was a famed collector of the arts.
[04:04] Mikazuki
    There are stories that say he was lured
    to Honnoji using a famous tea instrument.
[04:09] Mikazuki
    These are but theories, though.
[04:13] Yamanbagiri
    This tea party lines up with historical fact.
[04:15] Yamanbagiri
    We haven't confirmed any
    Time Retrograde Army interference.
[04:19] Mikazuki
    Perhaps they are targeting
    Akechi Mitsuhide, then.
[04:23] Yamanbagiri
    It's too early to say.
[04:25] Yamanbagiri
    I hope Hasebe and the others
    can give us more information.
SIGN    Tanba-Kameyama Castle
[04:33] Yagen
    Looks like the Akechi troops
    are gathered in Kameyama Castle.
[04:37] Yagen
    They seem ready to fight at any moment.
[04:41] Hasebe
    Most of the men here
[04:43] Hasebe
    believe they're headed to provide
    backup at Bitchu-Takamatsu Castle.
[04:47] Hasebe
    They don't have the faintest idea that
    they're about to go kill Oda Nobunaga.
[04:52] Yagen
    That's how secretive the
    whole operation was, I guess.
[04:56] Hasebe
    No signs of the Time Retrograde Army
    targeting this place.
[04:59] Yagen
    In that case, we should regroup
    with Yamanbagiri and the others.
[05:04] Fudou
    Are we really gonna find any enemies
    by searching around here?
[05:08] Souza
    We aren't only on the lookout
    for the Time Retrograde Army.
[05:11] Souza
    Signs of altered history can show
    up in various shapes and sizes.
[05:15] Fudou
    Listen...
[05:16] Fudou
    I think I probably passed through Kyoto
    here back when I was a sword.
[05:22] Fudou
    With Nobunaga and Ranmaru, I mean.
[05:25] Fudou
    What is this feeling?
[05:27] Souza
    Is it nostalgia?
[05:30] Fudou
    Yes, that's it!
[05:32] Fudou
    I'm filled with nostalgia right now.
[05:36] Fudou
    Are you feeling nostalgic, too?
[05:38] Souza
    Huh?
[05:39] Fudou
    I'm sure you spent time in
    the Kyoto of this era, too.
[05:44] Souza
    So what if I did?
[05:47] Fudou
    It's just... nostalgia is a strange feeling.
[05:52] Fudou
    It comes with both joy and
    sorrow at the same time.
[05:57] Fudou
    Say, Souza.
[05:59] Fudou
    Could we go meet him?
[06:01] Souza
    Meet whom?
[06:03] Fudou
    Nobunaga.
[06:05] Fudou
    All I want is to get a good look at his face...
[06:07] Souza
    You mustn't.
[06:08] Fudou
    Please! All I need is one moment!
[06:11] Souza
    We're on a mission right now.
[06:13] Souza
    Mixing work and private matters
    is simply unacceptable.
[06:17] Townsfolk1
    What's going on?
[06:18] Townsfolk2
    A fight's broken out!
[06:24] Townsfolk3
    Damn it... How dare you?!
[06:25] Souza
    Just focus on our mission right... now...
[06:33] Souza
    Fudou Yukimitsu...
[06:38] Hasebe
    They're late.
[06:39] Hasebe
    It's long past the appointed time.
[06:42] Yamanbagiri
    I understand a slight delay,
    but this is strange.
[06:44] Yagen
    Do you think they encountered
    the enemy during their search?
[06:48] Mikazuki
    Don't worry. Souza Samonji
    won't go down that easily.
[06:54] Hasebe
    At this point, an enemy
    encounter might be better.
[06:56] Hasebe
    I just hope Fudou Yukimitsu
    isn't causing trouble again.
[07:00] Yamanbagiri
    Change of plans.
[07:02] Yamanbagiri
    We are now going to search for
    Souza Samonji and Fudou Yukimitsu.
[07:09] Fudou
    Huh?
[07:10] Fudou
    Where the heck is Honnoji Temple?
[07:12] Souza
    Fudou Yukimitsu!
[07:14] Fudou
    Souza!
[07:16] Souza
    Letting me catch you proves that
    you still have a long way to go.
[07:20] Fudou
    Perfect timing.
[07:21] Fudou
    I don't know the way to Honnoji Temple.
[07:24] Fudou
    Could you come with—
[07:25] Souza
    Enough is enough!
[07:28] Souza
    Even if you meet Oda Nobunaga,
    you will not be allowed to alter history.
[07:33] Fudou
    I wasn't planning on it.
[07:36] Souza
    Then why do you want to see him?
[07:38] Fudou
    Again, like I said... you know...
[07:42] Souza
    Fudou Yukimitsu.
[07:44] Souza
    We are here to defend history.
[07:47] Souza
    And that's...
[07:49] Souza
    a history where Oda Nobunaga
    is killed at Honnoji.
[07:55] Fudou
    You're lucky, Souza.
[07:57] Souza
    Huh?
[07:59] Fudou
    I was bestowed to Ranmaru,
[08:01] Fudou
    but you got to stay by Nobunaga's
    side until the very end.
[08:04] Fudou
    He even branded you,
[08:06] Fudou
    which goes to show how much
    he loved you, right?
[08:09] Fudou
    He gave you so much love,
    and you were with him the entire time...
[08:13] Fudou
    So why couldn't you help Nobunaga?
[08:17] Fudou
    Why couldn't you keep him safe?!
[08:21] Souza
    I...
[08:22] Souza
    I don't remember if I saw
    any battle in Honnoji that day.
[08:29] Fudou
    Huh?
[08:31] Souza
    Swords are objects.
[08:32] Souza
    And objects only serve their purpose
    when they are put to use.
[08:37] Souza
    But I...
[08:39] Souza
    I was forever a caged bird.
[08:43] Fudou
    Souza...
[08:46] Souza
    What's the matter?
[08:49] Souza
    What is it?
[08:51] Fudou
    Souza Samonji was a beautiful sword.
[08:54] Souza
    Huh?
[08:56] Fudou
    Maybe Nobunaga...
[08:58] Fudou
    Maybe he didn't use you because he didn't
    want to stain your beauty with blood.
[09:05] Fudou
    Meanwhile, I'm just a useless sword.
[09:08] Fudou
    And it makes me feel even more useless
    when I see amazing swords like you.
[09:14] Fudou
    That's why I...
[09:16] Fudou
    Wh-What was that for? I don't think
    I said anything to make you that mad!
[09:19] Souza
    That isn't why.
[09:23] Fudou
    What's that?
[09:24] Souza
    The Time Retrograde Army!
[09:32] Souza
    Fudou Yukimitsu!
[09:40] Hasebe
    So you really did encounter the enemy.
[09:42] Fudou
    I didn't ask for your help!
[09:44] Hasebe
    Don't get the wrong idea.
    I'm not doing this for you.
[09:46] Hasebe
    I'm merely following Master's orders
    and taking out our enemy.
[09:50] Yagen
    Really gets the blood boiling.
[10:01] Fudou
    Not so fast!
[10:02] Hasebe
    Don't chase them!
[10:04] Hasebe
    Damn it.
[10:06] Hasebe
    Souza and I will handle this.
[10:08] Hasebe
    Yagen, you go after Fudou Yukimitsu.
[10:10] Yagen
    Okay, I've got you!
[10:16] Fudou
    Hold it!
[10:18] Fudou
    There you are!
[10:31] Fudou
    Crap!
[10:40] Fudou
    Yagen!
[10:43] Yagen
    I'm not done yet!
[10:54] Yagen
    There's no end to them.
[10:58] Ranmaru
    Halt!
[10:59] Ranmaru
    It is the height of cowardice
    to gang up on someone!
[11:02] Ranmaru
    I, Mori Ranmaru, shall put an end to this!
[11:05] Fudou
    Ranmaru?!
[11:15] Yagen
    Why here? Why now?
[11:17] Yagen
    Why Mori Ranmaru?
[11:21] Ranmaru
    What's wrong? I'll take you on.
[11:24] Ranmaru
    Come at me!
[11:27] Fudou
    What the...
[11:34] Hasebe
    That is weird.
[11:35] Hasebe
    They just retreated without
    fulfilling their objective.
[11:38] Souza
    That said, I'm glad you're all right.
[11:41] Yagen
    Yeah, somehow.
[11:45] Ranmaru
    Are you unhurt?
[11:52] Ranmaru
    Who were those strange-looking fellows?
[11:56] Ranmaru
    That said, you all are dressed
    quite peculiarly yourselves.
[12:02] Fudou
    Ranmaru!
[12:08] Ranmaru
    What is it?
[12:10] Fudou
    It's been too long!
[12:11] Ranmaru
    Huh?
[12:12] Fudou
    It's me, can't you tell?
[12:14] Fudou
    Nobunaga handed me over to you! I'm Fudou—
[12:18] Yagen
    That's enough.
[12:22] Yagen
    I apologize for my friend's behavior.
[12:25] Hasebe
    We'll take our leave now.
[12:27] Souza
    Thank you.
[12:29] Fudou
    Hey, wait! What are you doing?!
[12:29] Hasebe
    All right, off we go. Stop struggling.
[12:32] Fudou
    Lemme go! Let me go!
[12:34] Ranmaru
    One moment, please!
[12:38] Ranmaru
    You there.
[12:40] Ranmaru
    You appear to be wounded.
[12:42] Yagen
    Oh, this?
[12:44] Yagen
    It's fine. This doesn't count as an injury.
[12:47] Ranmaru
    No, you mustn't make light of a sword cut.
[12:50] Ranmaru
    Should it worsen,
    it may even put your life at risk.
[12:54] Yagen
    Again, it's not that big a deal.
[12:57] Ranmaru
    It is.
[12:58] Ranmaru
    I am not so cruel as to
    abandon a wounded fellow.
[13:02] Yagen
    No, but...
[13:04] Ranmaru
    I have a room in Honnoji Temple,
    where we are stationed.
[13:08] Ranmaru
    I shall tend to you there.
[13:17] Yamanbagiri
    Find them?
[13:19] Mikazuki
    No, there's no sign of them,
    so I was enjoying the sights of Kyoto.
[13:24] Yamanbagiri
    Souza's better than this.
[13:28] Yamanbagiri
    Fudou Yukimitsu must've
    done something stupid.
[13:31] Mikazuki
    That was accounted for
    when this squad was chosen.
[13:35] Mikazuki
    Unless they reconcile
     with Fudou Yukimitsu,
[13:38] Mikazuki
    the Oda swords cannot fight to defend
    history alongside him in our Citadel.
[13:44] Mikazuki
    That must be the conclusion
    our master has reached.
[13:47] Yamanbagiri
    Talk about ripping the bandages off.
[13:54] Mikazuki
    Who is that?
[13:56] Yamanbagiri
    One of Oda Nobunaga's retainers...
[13:58] Yamanbagiri
    Yasuke.
[14:00] Mikazuki
    Ah, so that's him.
[14:03] Yamanbagiri
    On the mission during which my entire
    squad was nearly wiped out...
[14:07] Yamanbagiri
    The one who conspired with the
    Time Retrograde Army to alter history
[14:12] Yamanbagiri
    was Yasuke.
[14:14] Yamanbagiri
    His goal was to avenge the Honnoji Incident.
[14:18] Mikazuki
    I believe he went missing after the incident
    and was later found serving the Kuroda.
[14:25] Mikazuki
    So, in this time period,
    he's blissfully unaware.
[14:33] Yasuke
    Do you need me for something?
[14:36] Yasuke
    You have been staring at me
    with murder in your eyes.
[14:42] Mikazuki
    Oh, he simply has a scary look
    on his face all the time.
[14:46] Mikazuki
    He's often misunderstood.
[14:49] Mikazuki
    We apologize if he caused you displeasure.
[14:55] Yamanbagiri
    Thanks.
[14:57] Mikazuki
    No, I believe you would've stopped
    yourself had I not stepped in.
[15:02] Mikazuki
    After all, Yasuke is a part
    of the Honnoji Incident.
[15:08] Mikazuki
    If you killed him here,
    you would alter history.
[15:14] Mikazuki
    All that aside, we must
    find Souza and Fudou at once.
[15:18] Yamanbagiri
    Hasebe and the others may
    have found them already.
[15:21] Yamanbagiri
    Let's return to the meetup point.
[15:28] Ranmaru
    That should take care of it for the time being.
[15:31] Yagen
    I appreciate the first aid.
[15:34] Yagen
    I'll have to undergo repairs
    either way, though.
[15:37] Ranmaru
    What?
[15:38] Yagen
    Nothing, never mind.
[15:40] Yagen
    Thanks, uh...
[15:44] Ranmaru
    I'm Mori Ranmaru, retainer to the Oda.
[15:49] Ranmaru
    I was in town to buy some things for milord
[15:52] Ranmaru
    when I saw you being attacked by those
    strange-looking fellows and joined the fray.
[15:58] Hasebe
    We appreciate you helping out
    total strangers like us.
[16:02] Souza
    But why would you go so far for us?
[16:05] Ranmaru
    As I said, it wouldn't be right
    to abandon the wounded.
[16:10] Yagen
    Did you not stop to consider
    that we may be your enemies?
[16:15] Ranmaru
    I don't quite understand it myself,
[16:19] Ranmaru
    but I could not think of you as strangers.
[16:23] Fudou
    Huh?
[16:25] Ranmaru
    It's true. I felt as though it wasn't
    my first time meeting you.
[16:29] Ranmaru
    I felt a strange sense of familiarity with you.
[16:33] Ranmaru
    Perhaps I simply did not want to
    say goodbye in that manner.
[16:37] Souza
    Familiarity, you say?
[16:40] Ranmaru
    Yes. I've had that feeling before.
[16:44] Ranmaru
    It was...
[16:48] Ranmaru
    Right. It was with Mitsuhide-sama.
[16:52] Ranmaru
    Akechi Hyuga-no-Kami Mitsuhide-sama.
    You're the same as him.
[16:56] Hasebe
    In what way?
[16:59] Ranmaru
    Hmm... What, indeed?
[17:01] Ranmaru
    Maybe your undying love for milord.
[17:06] Hasebe
    Wha—
[17:07] Ranmaru
    Do you happen to serve a retainer of the Oda?
[17:13] Yagen
    No, uh, well...
[17:15] Yagen
    We're simply traveling martial artists.
    We have nothing to do with the Oda clan.
[17:19] Hasebe
    We just happened to stop by Kyoto
    in passing. Nothing more, nothing less.
[17:25] Ranmaru
    Is that so? My apologies for presuming.
[17:28] Yagen
    Don't worry about it.
[17:30] Fudou
    Listen, Ranmaru. I...
[17:32] Hasebe
    Well, the wound has been treated.
    No reason for us to stay any longer.
[17:36] Yagen
    Yeah, we should get going.
[17:39] Fudou
    But we got to meet Ranmaru!
[17:43] Hasebe
    You should thank him, too.
[17:50] Fudou
    Thanks, Ranmaru. Be well.
[17:53] Ranmaru
    Of course. I wish you all the best, too.
[17:56] Hasebe
    Goodbye, then.
[18:01] Souza
    Mori Ranmaru.
[18:04] Souza
    What is Oda Nobunaga to you?
[18:09] Ranmaru
    Huh?
[18:11] Yagen
    Hey, Souza...
[18:12] Hasebe
    Let's go.
[18:18] Ranmaru
    Wait.
[18:20] Ranmaru
    I feel as though we will meet again.
[18:25] Fudou
    Yeah, let's meet again for sure.
[18:32] Ranmaru
    "What is Oda Nobunaga," huh?
[18:40] Yagen
    Never expected to run into
    Mori Ranmaru, of all people.
[18:44] Hasebe
    I hope our interaction doesn't
    affect history in any way.
[18:48] Souza
    I'm sorry. It's all because we
    thoughtlessly engaged the enemy.
[18:53] Fudou
    No, it's not Souza's fault.
[18:56] Fudou
    It's all because I ran off on my own.
[19:01] Yagen
    Well, what's done is done.
[19:04] Yagen
    But man, it bothers me.
[19:06] Souza
    What does?
[19:08] Yagen
    The Time Retrograde Army's actions.
[19:09] Yagen
    Once Ranmaru joined the fight,
    they retreated without doing anything.
[19:14] Yagen
    Something about that feels off to me.
[19:17] Hasebe
    Mori Ranmaru is a vital player
    in the Honnoji Incident.
[19:21] Hasebe
    If they didn't plan on approaching him,
[19:23] Hasebe
    that must mean their target
    is on Akechi's side, not Oda's.
[19:26] Yagen
    That, or they're planning something else.
[19:33] Mikazuki
    Good. You're all safe.
[19:35] Fudou
    Hey... Sorry, Manba-chan.
[19:38] Fudou
    I acted alone and put everyone in danger.
[19:43] Fudou
    I really am a useless sword.
[19:48] Yamanbagiri
    You and I are alike.
[20:06] (Flashback) Yamanbagiri
    What are you expecting from a mere copy?
[20:13] Yamanbagiri
    I'm Yamanbagiri Kunihiro.
[20:16] Yamanbagiri
    The sword made at the order of
    Nagao Akinaga, the lord of Ashikaga Castle.
[20:20] Yamanbagiri
    As a copy of Yamanbagiri.
[20:23] Yamanbagiri
    I'm not a fake, though.
[20:27] Yamanbagiri
    I am the best masterpiece of Kunihiro,
    and I'm proud to say it.
[20:32] Yamanbagiri
    But I kept calling myself a mere copy,
    maybe in a bid to escape my responsibilities.
[20:40] Yamanbagiri
    I will do my job as the Attendant Sword.
[20:44] Yamanbagiri
    So...
[20:46] Yamanbagiri
    You try to get rid of your
    "useless" label, too.
[20:50] Fudou
    Manba-chan...
[20:52] Yamanbagiri
    Let's go.
[20:56] Hasebe
    We must figure out what is about
    to happen in this time period.
[21:01] Yagen
    Once this night is past,
    the Honnoji Incident will commence.
[21:04] Yagen
    No matter what the enemy does,
    we have to defend that history.
[21:09] Yamanbagiri
    At the break of dawn tomorrow,
[21:12] Yamanbagiri
    Akechi Mitsuhide's army will
