[00:20] Yasuke
Our dark friends...
[00:33] Yamanbagiri
I forgot you were present
for the Honnoji Incident.
[00:38] Yasuke
Who are you people?
[00:56] Yamanbagiri
While it has already happened for me,
I suppose you'll only find out later.
[01:02] Yamanbagiri
Yasuke.
[01:03] Yamanbagiri
You are not meant to die here.
[01:05] Yamanbagiri
Go. Run away from this place and survive.
[01:15] Yamanbagiri
The Honnoji Incident...
[01:17] Yamanbagiri
Some are fated to die here,
while others must survive.
[01:22] Yamanbagiri
Oda Nobunaga is one who has to die.
[01:26] Yamanbagiri
That's what the history books say.

For Whom the Flower Blooms
[03:07] Ranmaru
You choose to aid Mitsuhide?
[03:12] Ranmaru
Then I deem you...
[03:16] Ranmaru
my enemies!
[03:40] Ranmaru
Why must you stop me?!
[03:42] Souza
We cannot let Akechi Mitsuhide die here,
[03:47] Souza
regardless of what lies in store.
[03:52] Souza
Let us handle this,
and go see your cause to fruition.
[03:58] Mitsuhide
I know not who you are, but you have my thanks.
[04:15] Yagen
What is he?
[04:18] Ranmaru
Out of my way.
[04:22] Mikazuki
According to history, Mori Ranmaru
should already have been killed in action.
[04:28] Yagen
Then this Ranmaru here...
[04:31] Ranmaru
Out of my way.
[04:34] Hasebe
...cannot be alive.
[04:37] Ranmaru
Begone!
[04:47] Yagen
Here they come in droves again.
[04:51] Souza
It doesn't matter how many there are.
[04:54] Souza
We must cut them all down!
[05:20] Mikazuki
Fudou?
[05:21] Ranmaru
I will rend all that stands in my way.
[05:34] Ranmaru
Mitsuhide...
[05:36] Fudou
Wait, Ranmaru!
[05:38] Mikazuki
Fudou Yukimitsu.
[05:41] Mikazuki
I see.
[05:43] Mikazuki
I suppose I will have to
deal with you all first.
[05:58] Fudou
Not now!
[06:01] Fudou
I don't have time to deal with you.
[06:04] Fudou
Not right now!
[06:08] Fudou
Ranmaru!
[06:14] Mitsuhide
Where is he?
[06:16] Mitsuhide
Where is he?
[06:18] Mitsuhide
Where is he?!
[06:20] Mitsuhide
Oda Nobunaga...
[06:23] Mitsuhide
Where could he be?
[06:46] Ranmaru
Milord...
[06:50] Fudou
Please wait!
[07:02] Fudou
Ranmaru...
[07:06] (Flashback) Ranmaru
Oh, dear. It appears you
caught me lost in thought.
[07:10] (Flashback) Ranmaru
Well...
[07:11] (Flashback) Ranmaru
Milord bestowed this sword to me.
[07:14] (Flashback) Mitsuhide
Is that... Fudou Yukimitsu?
[07:18] (Flashback) Mitsuhide
That sword is no keepsake.
Cherish it for the rest of your life.
[07:23] (Flashback) Ranmaru
"Fudou Yukimitsu, Tsukumogami the tea caddy,
[07:27] (Flashback) Ranmaru
and Niwa Nagahide, all three are mine!"
[07:32] (Flashback) Ranmaru
Milord...
[07:35] Fudou
Ranmaru...
[07:38] Fudou
Ranmaru!
[07:47] Fudou
I don't want to see you die!
[07:51] Fudou
You and I are comrades,
both beloved by Nobunaga!
[07:58] Fudou
That's why I'll... I will...
[08:01] Ranmaru
Quiet!
[08:08] Fudou
Ranmaru!
[08:12] Fudou
You need treatment.
[08:14] Ranmaru
I must go.
[08:17] Ranmaru
I must protect milord...
I must protect Oda Nobunaga-sama.
[08:21] Fudou
You need treatment, now!
[08:24] Ranmaru
Let me go!
[08:36] Ranmaru
Honnoji Temple... is in flames...
[08:40] Ranmaru
This can't be... It can't be happening.
[08:45] Ranmaru
Mitsuhide-sama would never start a rebellion.
[08:50] Ranmaru
Nobunaga-sama cannot die here.
[08:55] Ranmaru
No... this must be a bad dream. It has to be.
[09:01] (Flashback) Ranmaru
Mitsuhide-sama.
[09:02] (Flashback) Mitsuhide
Forgive me. I had to ask,
since you seemed so forlorn.
[09:08] (Flashback) Mitsuhide
It simply means our lord treasures
Mori Ranmaru above all.
[09:14] (Flashback) Mitsuhide
Unlike you, I am old and
won't live for much longer.
[09:18] (Flashback) Mitsuhide
But I hope I can make
flowers bloom in the afterlife.
[09:21] (Flashback) Ranmaru
Why would you start a rebellion?
[09:23] (Flashback) Ranmaru
What cause could this
madness possibly serve?
[09:26] (Flashback) Mitsuhide
Let me ask you, then.
[09:28] (Flashback) Mitsuhide
Why do you try to protect him with your life?
[09:32] (Flashback) Mitsuhide
What has you show such loyalty to him?!
[09:37] Ranmaru
I'm aware.
[09:39] Ranmaru
This is no bad dream. It's reality.
[09:42] Ranmaru
Mitsuhide-sama is rebelling,
and milord's life is in danger.
[09:47] Ranmaru
And yet, there is nothing I can do.
[09:53] Ranmaru
Do it.
[09:56] Ranmaru
Kill me. Is that not why you're here?
[10:02] Fudou
I could never do that!
[10:05] Fudou
I could never kill a man who
loved a sword as useless as me!
[10:16] Ranmaru
Then I shall kill you instead.
[10:31] Ranmaru
Die.
[10:38] Ranmaru
You stand in my way again?
[10:53] Yamanbagiri
Are you okay, Fudou Yukimitsu?
[10:55] Fudou
Manba-chan.
[10:57] Ranmaru
The numbers advantage, eh?
[11:00] Ranmaru
How unlike the time I fought alongside you.
[11:03] Yagen
Yeah. You treated me back then.
[11:08] Yagen
I appreciate it, I truly do.
[11:10] Hasebe
But this ends now.
[11:16] Ranmaru
No, not yet.
[11:19] Ranmaru
I have life in me yet.
[11:24] Yagen
Tch. He keeps coming.
[11:27] Souza
Wait one moment!
[11:28] Hasebe
Yeah, something's off.
[11:39] Yamanbagiri
What's this?
[11:43] Mikazuki
If Tsurumaru Kuninaga were here,
I believe this is what he would say...
[11:47] Mikazuki
"Now this is a surprise."
[11:57] Fudou
Ranmaru?
[12:12] (Flashback) Ranmaru
You knaves!
[12:15] (Flashback) Ranmaru
Let me go... Unhand me!
[12:40] (Flashback) Ranmaru
Milord...
[12:49] (Flashback) Ranmaru
No... No...
[12:52] (Flashback) Ranmaru
No, no, no, no!
[12:54] (Flashback) Ranmaru
Oda Nobunaga cannot go out this way!
[13:00] (Flashback) Ranmaru
I must protect milord...
[13:04] (Flashback) Ranmaru
I don't care what happens to me
as long as I can save him.
[13:11] (Flashback) Ranmaru
I shall gladly offer up my own life.
[13:15] (Flashback) Ranmaru
So please...
[13:20] Hasebe
What is this?
[13:22] Yagen
Yeesh. They're pulling out all the stops.
[13:26] Yamanbagiri
Watch out!
[13:40] Yamanbagiri
Too shallow?
[13:43] Yamanbagiri
Crap!
[13:52] Yamanbagiri
Thanks.
[13:52] Mikazuki
Now, what do we do about this?
[14:27] Hasebe
Attack him all at once!
Fudou Yukimitsu, you fight, too!
[14:32] Hasebe
Hey! Are you listening?!
[14:36] Fudou
I decided to defend history as a Sword Warrior.
[14:39] Fudou
To do that, I thought I had
to come to terms with it...
[14:44] Fudou
Come to terms with Ranmaru
and Nobunaga's history. But...
[14:48] Fudou
Ranmaru's trying to protect Nobunaga,
no matter what it takes.
[14:53] Fudou
I can't cut him down just
because that's our mission.
[14:57] Fudou
I failed on that fateful day in Honnoji.
[15:01] Fudou
Souza, Hasebe, and Yagen, you guys failed, too.
[15:04] Fudou
But Ranmaru's trying to do what we couldn't!
[15:08] Fudou
He's trying to save Nobunaga!
[15:14] Fudou
Stop it! I don't want to fight you!
[15:19] Ranmaru
Shut up!
[15:23] Souza
Mori Ranmaru, you should already be dead.
[15:29] Ranmaru
What are you talking about? I still live...
[15:34] Ranmaru
I am alive and well right here!
[15:37] Souza
That isn't what the history books want!
[15:44] Fudou
Screw history!
[15:47] Fudou
Do you really think it's more important
than the people you love?!
[15:50] Fudou
Is it more important than Ranmaru and
Nobunaga, who treated us with love and care?!
[15:56] Fudou
Don't we have a choice that
isn't accepting this bullcrap?
[16:01] Fudou
That's just too cruel!
[16:03] Hasebe
Mori Ranmaru is not meant
to be alive at this point.
[16:09] Hasebe
He must die.
[16:16] Fudou
Ranmaru.
[16:17] Fudou
Let's get this over with
and go see Nobunaga, yeah?
[16:27] Yamanbagiri
Fudou!
[16:29] Hasebe
Not only is he no help,
he's actively working against us!
[16:35] Ranmaru
I must protect milord...
[16:39] Yagen
Take this!
[16:46] Fudou
No...
[16:49] Fudou
Don't!
[16:51] Yamanbagiri
Now, Souza!
[16:55] Ranmaru
Souza? Souza Samonji?
[17:00] Ranmaru
I see. You're milord's sword...
[17:09] Ranmaru
Why? You are his sword...
[17:14] Ranmaru
So why do you stop me?
[17:16] Ranmaru
I simply wish to keep our lord safe...
[17:34] Yagen
Souza...
[17:42] Ranmaru
You asked me a question when we last met.
[17:47] (Flashback) Ranmaru
I wish you all the best, too.
[17:49] (Flashback) Hasebe
Goodbye, then.
[17:54] (Flashback) Souza
Mori Ranmaru.
[17:57] (Flashback) Souza
What is Oda Nobunaga to you?
[18:02] (Flashback) Ranmaru
Huh?
[18:09] Ranmaru
What is Oda Nobunaga to me?
[18:13] Ranmaru
As one born to a family under his patronage,
[18:17] Ranmaru
he is my lord.
[18:20] Ranmaru
That is why... I must protect him...
[18:28] Ranmaru
But in truth, such formalities
never mattered to me.
[18:32] Ranmaru
My family and my duty were irrelevant.
[18:36] Ranmaru
I simply loved Oda Nobunaga as a person.
[18:43] Ranmaru
That is why... I wished to be his shield.
[18:51] Ranmaru
But I see now that my wish will not come true.
[18:54] Ranmaru
You all have come here with
a duty to fulfill, have you not?
[19:01] Ranmaru
Then forget me, and do as you must.
[19:06] Ranmaru
As we are all here for a purpose.
[19:12] (Flashback) Fudou
Yeah, let's meet again for sure.
[19:19] Fudou
Ranmaru...
[19:27] Mitsuhide
Oda's followers?
[19:31] Mitsuhide
Where is Oda Nobunaga?
[19:33] Mitsuhide
My army has Honnoji Temple surrounded.
There is nowhere to run.
[19:39] Odaretainer
I don't know.
[19:40] Odaretainer
Even if I did, I would never do you
the pleasure of telling you.
[19:50] Mitsuhide
Where is he?
[19:51] Mitsuhide
Where are you, Nobunaga?
[20:01] Mitsuhide
How bizarre.
[20:02] Mitsuhide
Is this camellia?
[20:05] Mitsuhide
A flower disdained by warriors, for the way
they fall reminds one of a beheading.
[20:13] Mitsuhide
O Camellia... Who do you bloom for?
[20:29] Yamanbagiri
Hold it. Where are you going?
[20:31] Fudou
Sorry, Manba-chan. I don't think my
"useless" label is going anywhere.
[20:39] Mikazuki
I believe I warned you.
[20:41] Mikazuki
If you refuse to defend history,
[20:44] Mikazuki
we'll have to cut you down.
[20:48] Mikazuki
Will you still go?
[20:50] Fudou
Yeah, I'm going.
[20:52] Hasebe
Are you disobeying our master's orders?
[20:56] Fudou
Heshikiri... Apologize to our master for me.
[21:00] Hasebe
If you intend to alter history,
[21:04] Hasebe
you'll be turning against us, you know that?!
[21:10] Yagen
Fudou!
[21:12] Yamanbagiri
That idiot!
[21:24] Hasebe
Souza Samonji.
[21:30] Yagen
We should go, too.
[21:36] Hasebe
Where are you going?
[21:38] Souza
You were right, Hasebe.
[21:40] Souza
The Demon King continues
to haunt us to this day.
[21:43] Souza
His will still shackles me, you, Yagen...
[21:48] Souza
And Fudou.
[21:50] Souza
There is no escape for us.
[21:53] Yagen
So let's say there is no escape.
What can we do?
[22:02] Souza
If we can't escape it,
[22:06] Souza
then we have no choice but to face up to it!
