29
00:04:02,159 --> 00:04:04,285
When tattooing people,

30
00:04:04,703 --> 00:04:07,496
you use your left thumb like this

31
00:04:07,998 --> 00:04:11,000
and hold the skin down tight.

32
00:04:11,960 --> 00:04:17,548
You put in ink as you make cuts.

33
00:04:21,678 --> 00:04:26,849
We call this pricking sound
tohibiki or "distant echo."

34
00:04:28,018 --> 00:04:30,353
It's a sweet sound for pros.

35
00:04:31,063 --> 00:04:35,983
Others say it gives them
chills and goose bumps.

36
00:04:36,693 --> 00:04:39,695
Talk about chills, though.

37
00:04:40,364 --> 00:04:42,823
Because of the ink in the tattoo,

38
00:04:42,908 --> 00:04:45,743
you feel twice as cold in winter.

39
00:04:45,827 --> 00:04:48,537
You need to wear cotton-padded clothes.

40
00:04:49,039 --> 00:04:53,084
Lt doesn't mean, though,
it cools you down in summer.

41
00:04:54,294 --> 00:05:01,133
Carrying a tattoo
means a lifetime of patience.

42
00:05:25,075 --> 00:05:27,576
What a fine woman she was.

43
00:05:28,578 --> 00:05:33,791
I've never inked such skin
before or since.

44
00:05:34,918 --> 00:05:39,922
When we tattoo artists say "a fine woman,"
it's all about her skin.

45
00:05:40,924 --> 00:05:45,136
She had such a fine figure, though,

46
00:05:45,220 --> 00:05:48,806
men would want to jump on her.

47
00:05:49,516 --> 00:05:54,270
She must have had an exceptionally
beautiful face, too.

48
00:05:56,023 --> 00:05:58,524
Was she hiding her face?

49
00:06:00,569 --> 00:06:01,694
Yes.

50
00:06:02,779 --> 00:06:08,200
She stood straight up right where you are.

51
00:06:32,392 --> 00:06:34,477
She didn't care what it was.

52
00:06:34,561 --> 00:06:36,520
Something surprising.

53
00:06:37,147 --> 00:06:41,734
She wanted tattoos
to knock the wind out of people.

54
00:06:42,694 --> 00:06:45,780
It could be something
so horrible and grotesque

55
00:06:45,864 --> 00:06:49,241
that it would make your heart stop.

56
00:06:49,326 --> 00:06:50,785
or

57
00:06:50,869 --> 00:06:56,040
it could be something to drive men
insane with lust.

58
00:06:56,958 --> 00:07:01,670
She asked me not to hold back.

59
00:07:02,089 --> 00:07:06,842
She wanted something
on both her front and back.

60
00:07:09,596 --> 00:07:12,807
on her back, I tattooed
the Mountain Hag Devil, Yamanba

61
00:07:14,184 --> 00:07:19,688
and on her chest,
the baby Kintaro fondling her.

62
00:07:23,944 --> 00:07:28,948
Anyone would scream when I work
from her breasts to her belly.

63
00:07:29,950 --> 00:07:34,453
The pain runs from the tip of the toes
to the core of the head.

64
00:07:34,538 --> 00:07:37,540
A sharp, stabbing pain.

65
00:07:38,166 --> 00:07:40,000
However,

66
00:07:40,085 --> 00:07:43,629
she was a staggeringly strong woman.

67
00:07:43,713 --> 00:07:46,715
She didn't even moan, not once.

68
00:07:47,467 --> 00:07:50,970
Then I noticed something.

69
00:07:51,847 --> 00:07:56,892
At first, I thought she was a dancer.

70
00:07:57,394 --> 00:07:59,061
But, no.

71
00:07:59,896 --> 00:08:03,607
She had clearly been trained
with the sword.

72
00:08:04,484 --> 00:08:10,489
I hear daimyo lords take on besshiki-me
or "sword mistresses."

73
00:08:11,116 --> 00:08:13,242
Based on her looks and her shape,

74
00:08:13,326 --> 00:08:17,079
I had a feeling she was one
of those sword mistresses.

75
00:08:18,331 --> 00:08:22,835
Maybe that was why
she didn't show her face.

76
00:08:26,590 --> 00:08:31,385
Anyway, she must've been
from a samurai family.

77
00:08:31,887 --> 00:08:33,679
Yet she now had two tattoos,

78
00:08:34,181 --> 00:08:37,892
a monster on her back
and a fondling baby on her front,

79
00:08:37,976 --> 00:08:40,477
to carry for the rest of her life.

80
00:08:40,604 --> 00:08:43,647
TATTOO BY UNO
I wonder what the idea was.

81
00:08:44,524 --> 00:08:50,070
For me, Unokichi the Tattoo Artist,
it's the masterpiece of a lifetime.

82
00:08:53,825 --> 00:08:56,827
But I've been worried, even to this day,

83
00:08:57,913 --> 00:08:59,955
it might bring bad luck.

84
00:09:03,168 --> 00:09:06,712
Who could you be?
Could you be the God of Luck?

85
00:09:06,796 --> 00:09:09,298
Who, who, who comes next?

86
00:09:09,382 --> 00:09:12,176
Dark in complexion and short in height

87
00:09:12,260 --> 00:09:14,303
-He he he
-Ha ha ha

88
00:09:14,387 --> 00:09:18,224
Who could you be?
Could you be the God of Wealth?

89
00:09:18,308 --> 00:09:20,726
Who comes after that?

90
00:09:20,810 --> 00:09:23,354
A long head and ample cheeks

91
00:09:23,438 --> 00:09:24,772
He he he

92
00:09:24,856 --> 00:09:28,859
Who could you be?
Could you be the God of Happy Long Life?

93
00:09:28,944 --> 00:09:31,320
Who comes after that?

94
00:09:31,404 --> 00:09:36,742
Could you be the round-bellied
God of Prosperity?

95
00:09:36,826 --> 00:09:39,036
Who comes after that?

96
00:09:39,120 --> 00:09:41,789
The one with a runny nose?

97
00:09:42,249 --> 00:09:46,001
Who could you be?
Could you be the God of Longevity?

98
00:09:47,671 --> 00:09:49,421
Happy day, sir.

99
00:09:49,506 --> 00:09:51,632
Go home now, boys.

100
00:09:51,716 --> 00:09:54,134
The show is over. Go home.

101
00:10:04,688 --> 00:10:05,688
Daigoro?

102
00:10:08,525 --> 00:10:09,858
Daigoro.

103
00:10:10,694 --> 00:10:13,821
Are you two beauties
the Goddesses of Fortune?

104
00:10:13,905 --> 00:10:15,197
-Look.
-Huh?

105
00:10:15,282 --> 00:10:16,657
Oops.

106
00:10:17,325 --> 00:10:22,371
Come on, son, we're going home.

107
00:10:22,455 --> 00:10:26,041
The fun is over.
Go home. It'll get dark.

108
00:10:26,126 --> 00:10:28,460
Scary monsters are coming. Go home.

109
00:11:16,593 --> 00:11:19,094
COLD NIGHT PRAYER

110
00:12:13,775 --> 00:12:15,567
Papa!

111
00:13:23,303 --> 00:13:28,807
Pitter patter, the rain is falling

112
00:13:29,559 --> 00:13:35,856
Ln a sad and cold rain

113
00:13:36,316 --> 00:13:42,488
His young heart is freezing

114
00:13:42,989 --> 00:13:48,243
Waiting for his papa who's not coming home

115
00:13:48,912 --> 00:13:57,211
His papa is an assassin, they say

116
00:14:04,010 --> 00:14:08,305
His father often spent a night
in an old temple.

117
00:14:08,389 --> 00:14:10,807
The boy knew this very well.

118
00:14:11,559 --> 00:14:14,269
He also knew,
after completing an assassination mission,

119
00:14:14,354 --> 00:14:18,357
his father would invariably sit
before the Buddha.

120
00:14:19,150 --> 00:14:22,819
Why did his father head for an old temple?

121
00:14:22,904 --> 00:14:25,697
To talk with the child's mother
in the nether world?

122
00:14:25,782 --> 00:14:29,451
To soothe his heart in the unblemished air?

123
00:14:30,036 --> 00:14:31,703
The boy didn't know why.

124
00:14:31,788 --> 00:14:35,916
Yet he searched for his father
on the ancient temple grounds.

125
00:15:10,285 --> 00:15:12,286
Those eyes...

126
00:15:13,496 --> 00:15:17,332
When a swordsman puts himself
between life and death

127
00:15:18,835 --> 00:15:21,837
and becomes one with nothingness,
he attains "Death Life Eyes."

128
00:15:22,964 --> 00:15:29,761
The eyes belong only to those who have
survived death and carnage multiple times.

129
00:15:33,224 --> 00:15:38,228
No way a little child can have such eyes.

130
00:15:39,230 --> 00:15:41,773
Have my eyes been failing me?

131
00:15:58,875 --> 00:16:01,376
Be careful which way the wind blows!

132
00:16:01,461 --> 00:16:03,337
Okay!

133
00:16:09,927 --> 00:16:12,471
-We'll have good rice fields next year.
-Surely.

134
00:16:12,555 --> 00:16:14,306
-Setting fire!
-Fire!

135
00:16:14,390 --> 00:16:15,849
Don't get surrounded by fire!

136
00:16:33,743 --> 00:16:36,078
He'll be surrounded by fire.

137
00:16:37,413 --> 00:16:39,539
I can't just watch it.

138
00:16:40,917 --> 00:16:44,628
Yet what a rare chance
to test his "Death Life Eyes"?

139
00:17:27,755 --> 00:17:31,258
Lt appears my eyes were not failing me.

140
00:17:32,009 --> 00:17:36,012
He's surrounded by fire,
yet he doesn't call for help or scream.

141
00:17:36,973 --> 00:17:41,351
Young as he is, he has accepted
he can't escape, and he remains calm.

142
00:17:42,145 --> 00:17:44,312
How terrifying his resolve is!

143
00:17:59,912 --> 00:18:02,456
What a strange child I met.

144
00:18:16,387 --> 00:18:18,930
-Nice fire, wasn't it?
-Finally it's over.

145
00:18:19,015 --> 00:18:21,141
-Well done.
-We'll have a great year.

146
00:18:30,860 --> 00:18:33,195
Everybody, come here!

147
00:18:33,613 --> 00:18:34,988
What's wrong?

148
00:18:38,493 --> 00:18:39,701
It's a child!

149
00:18:39,786 --> 00:18:43,121
He was caught in the fire.
He needs treatment.

150
00:18:52,799 --> 00:18:53,799
Stop.

151
00:18:57,553 --> 00:18:58,512
That child?

152
00:18:58,596 --> 00:19:02,140
He got caught in the fire
and dug himself into the mud.

153
00:19:02,225 --> 00:19:03,975
He must be treated.

154
00:19:06,270 --> 00:19:08,980
He dug himself into the mud to survive?

155
00:19:09,065 --> 00:19:11,733
Yes, what a lucky child.

156
00:19:13,486 --> 00:19:15,695
He knew he could save himself.

157
00:19:16,197 --> 00:19:21,660
That's why he didn't call for help
and wasn't even afraid.

158
00:19:24,413 --> 00:19:26,039
Put him down.

159
00:19:38,594 --> 00:19:39,970
What are you doing?

160
00:19:40,805 --> 00:19:43,682
Why do you point your sword
at an innocent child?

161
00:19:43,766 --> 00:19:44,933
It's his eyes.

162
00:19:46,561 --> 00:19:51,606
His eyes belong only to those
who have killed hundreds of men

163
00:19:52,233 --> 00:19:55,694
and withstood the splatter of their blood.

164
00:19:56,696 --> 00:19:58,405
His Death Life Eyes.

165
00:20:00,741 --> 00:20:01,741
It's incomprehensible.

166
00:20:01,826 --> 00:20:03,493
Lt can't be true.

167
00:20:03,911 --> 00:20:06,955
His eyes betray no fear
when confronted with a sword.

168
00:20:08,499 --> 00:20:11,626
Anyone who pursues swordsmanship
strives to attain

169
00:20:12,461 --> 00:20:15,797
such a spiritual state
regarding life and death.

170
00:20:16,716 --> 00:20:17,883
His Death Life Eyes.

171
00:20:17,967 --> 00:20:19,634
What are you doing?

172
00:20:20,386 --> 00:20:21,887
I must test him.

173
00:20:21,971 --> 00:20:23,471
-Test him?
-I'll kill him.

174
00:20:23,556 --> 00:20:24,764
How can you?

175
00:20:24,849 --> 00:20:29,019
Step aside, or I'll kill you too.

176
00:20:40,323 --> 00:20:43,325
Suio-ryu Horse-Slayer!

177
00:20:45,494 --> 00:20:49,331
Could you be Ogami's child?

178
00:20:54,879 --> 00:20:56,254
Papa!

179
00:21:07,642 --> 00:21:09,559
Itto Ogami.

180
00:21:09,644 --> 00:21:11,186
Papa!

181
00:21:27,286 --> 00:21:29,287
You're Gunbei Yagyu, aren't you?

182
00:21:31,040 --> 00:21:33,208
I suspected you were alive.

183
00:21:34,377 --> 00:21:36,378
I defeated you.

184
00:21:37,380 --> 00:21:43,218
My Yagyu New Kage-ryu swordsmanship
thoroughly defeated your Suio-ryu.

185
00:21:45,471 --> 00:21:50,225
Yet you were appointed
Shogunate Executioner.

186
00:21:52,603 --> 00:21:53,645
At that time...

187
00:22:09,495 --> 00:22:12,664
The Tokugawa Shogunate took
an iron-fisted approach

188
00:22:12,748 --> 00:22:16,042
in controlling the daimyo lords
with their Han domains within Japan.

189
00:22:16,127 --> 00:22:22,424
Any sign of disagreement could cost a lord
his title and his family land.

190
00:22:23,092 --> 00:22:25,385
The Kogi Kaishakunin,
the Shogunate Executioner,

191
00:22:25,469 --> 00:22:30,015
was tasked to be the condemned lords'
second in their seppuku self-execution

192
00:22:30,099 --> 00:22:32,100
and their final decapitator.

193
00:22:32,893 --> 00:22:38,106
The Shogunate granted the Executioner
the right to wear the Hollyhock Crest.

194
00:22:38,190 --> 00:22:40,525
Thus it was demonstrated to the public

195
00:22:40,609 --> 00:22:44,779
that it was the Shogunate
that was performing the decapitation.

196
00:23:02,173 --> 00:23:03,673
Fool!

197
00:23:06,218 --> 00:23:07,552
Get me Gunbei.

198
00:23:07,636 --> 00:23:09,387
Every second counts.

199
00:23:09,472 --> 00:23:12,807
The fate of the Yagyu clan
hangs in the balance.

200
00:23:23,402 --> 00:23:24,903
Idiot!

201
00:23:28,991 --> 00:23:35,497
The post of the Shogunate Executioner
will go to Itto Ogami.

202
00:23:36,165 --> 00:23:37,749
How can that happen?

203
00:23:37,833 --> 00:23:43,963
The tip of your sword dared
to point at the Shogun.

204
00:23:44,465 --> 00:23:46,132
What were you thinking?

205
00:23:46,634 --> 00:23:52,055
I hear Itto risked his life to block it.

206
00:23:52,598 --> 00:23:55,100
Lt may have appeared so,

207
00:23:55,601 --> 00:23:58,770
but Itto had no skills to parry my sword.

208
00:24:00,314 --> 00:24:02,440
He just happened to be there.

209
00:24:02,525 --> 00:24:04,067
Stupid!

210
00:24:05,861 --> 00:24:08,863
Lt may have happened by chance,

211
00:24:09,532 --> 00:24:15,286
but it still means Itto surrendered his life
to protect the Shogun from your sword.

212
00:24:18,040 --> 00:24:20,041
Gunbei, get up.

213
00:24:30,219 --> 00:24:31,219
Gunbei.

214
00:24:33,180 --> 00:24:38,017
I'll let you live only because
I value your skills as a swordsman.

215
00:24:38,727 --> 00:24:41,020
As of today, however, it'll be known

216
00:24:41,105 --> 00:24:45,650
you've committed hara-kiri
in penance for today's offense.

217
00:24:46,360 --> 00:24:47,360
Understand?

218
00:24:48,362 --> 00:24:50,822
Change your appearance.

219
00:24:51,323 --> 00:24:54,117
Leave for the north immediately.

220
00:25:01,542 --> 00:25:05,003
Summon Goroza the Kurokuwa face maker.

221
00:25:05,087 --> 00:25:06,212
Yes, sir.

222
00:25:06,297 --> 00:25:08,590
I am here, waiting for you.

223
00:25:17,433 --> 00:25:18,933
Goroza.

224
00:25:21,270 --> 00:25:25,023
Because you see Gunbei all the time,

225
00:25:25,107 --> 00:25:27,609
I assume you can copy his face.

226
00:25:32,364 --> 00:25:34,449
Please wait a moment.

227
00:26:07,274 --> 00:26:08,274
Good.

228
00:26:09,276 --> 00:26:14,280
It's all for the Yagyu clan.

229
00:26:15,199 --> 00:26:17,200
Will you die for us?

230
00:26:18,327 --> 00:26:19,369
Yes, sir.

231
00:26:27,920 --> 00:26:30,463
Commit hara-kiri.

232
00:26:35,511 --> 00:26:40,515
I, Retsudo, will be your second
and decapitate you.

233
00:26:59,952 --> 00:27:00,952
Pardon.

234
00:27:32,067 --> 00:27:33,735
Forgive me.

235
00:27:39,575 --> 00:27:43,036
The Yagyu sword, for all appearances,

236
00:27:44,163 --> 00:27:47,498
came in second to Itto Ogami.

237
00:27:50,044 --> 00:27:57,008
Henceforth, Ogami will be
the Shogunate Executioner.

238
00:27:57,092 --> 00:28:00,094
He will wear robes
with the Hollyhock Crest

239
00:28:02,097 --> 00:28:06,100
and send shivers down the backs
of the daimyo lords

240
00:28:06,852 --> 00:28:10,271
in 60 states and more across the nation.

241
00:28:10,939 --> 00:28:13,941
And his fame as a swordsman will rise.

242
00:28:17,571 --> 00:28:19,614
Compare that with us.

243
00:28:23,118 --> 00:28:28,122
The Yagyu clan will be made an example of
and criticized on every occasion.

244
00:28:31,585 --> 00:28:34,379
I shall take Goroza's head here

245
00:28:34,880 --> 00:28:38,883
and present it to the Shogun
and say falsely that it is Gunbei's,

246
00:28:39,843 --> 00:28:42,637
thus avoiding punishment for a while.

247
00:28:43,764 --> 00:28:49,018
Yet the root of the disaster
will linger for generations.

248
00:28:52,773 --> 00:28:55,775
Damn Itto Ogami!

249
00:28:57,820 --> 00:29:03,491
We need a scheme to make it appear
that he aims to destroy the Shogunate

250
00:29:03,992 --> 00:29:07,495
in order to eradicate his family name.

251
00:29:08,247 --> 00:29:11,999
The position of Shogunate Executioner

252
00:29:13,127 --> 00:29:16,754
must be regained by us.

253
00:29:22,344 --> 00:29:26,264
Had I stabbed you to death at that time,

254
00:29:26,765 --> 00:29:29,392
I wouldn't have lost my two brothers.

255
00:29:30,561 --> 00:29:33,312
I shall have my revenge
after so many years.

256
00:29:33,397 --> 00:29:35,106
Itto Ogami.

257
00:29:36,442 --> 00:29:39,944
The Yagyu clan has taken the position
of the Executioner.

258
00:29:40,737 --> 00:29:44,740
Everything will be over
once I kill the hunted dog that you are.

259
00:29:47,202 --> 00:29:49,370
Can you defeat me, Itto?

260
00:31:06,532 --> 00:31:07,823
Kill me.

261
00:31:10,911 --> 00:31:11,994
Why don't you?

262
00:31:12,079 --> 00:31:14,205
You died once before.

263
00:31:15,582 --> 00:31:18,626
It's no use killing a dead man.

264
00:34:59,598 --> 00:35:02,391
I address the Merciful Buddha.

265
00:35:03,685 --> 00:35:07,897
My son and I stand at the threshold
of the downward path

266
00:35:07,981 --> 00:35:10,858
through the Six Realms and Four Lives.

267
00:35:12,527 --> 00:35:14,862
When we meet parents, we kill them.

268
00:35:14,946 --> 00:35:18,115
When we meet Buddha, we kill them.

269
00:38:09,329 --> 00:38:10,287
Papa.

270
00:39:23,028 --> 00:39:26,030
There was a certain social class
at this time.

271
00:39:26,114 --> 00:39:29,950
They were street performers and were
considered to be outsiders and outcasts.

272
00:39:30,035 --> 00:39:31,785
They were called "Gomune."

273
00:39:32,287 --> 00:39:34,955
Songstresses, street dancers,
traveling actors,

274
00:39:35,040 --> 00:39:39,209
street comedians, roadside minstrels
and street preachers were among them.

275
00:39:40,378 --> 00:39:44,381
They belonged under the command
of Jindayu Gomune,

276
00:39:44,466 --> 00:39:48,510
and their special network reached
into all corners of the nation.

277
00:39:57,854 --> 00:39:59,438
Who the heck are you?

278
00:40:00,607 --> 00:40:03,317
I wish to meet Master Jindayu Gomune.

279
00:40:04,903 --> 00:40:06,904
I'm Itto Ogami.

280
00:40:07,739 --> 00:40:09,406
This is my son, Daigoro.

281
00:40:09,908 --> 00:40:13,285
We won't let no hired assassin get O-YUKI.

282
00:40:13,787 --> 00:40:14,745
Kill him.

283
00:40:14,829 --> 00:40:16,580
Let's get him.

284
00:40:16,664 --> 00:40:18,332
I mean you no harm.

285
00:40:22,087 --> 00:40:23,087
Papa.

286
00:40:41,397 --> 00:40:43,774
What's with the kid? He creeps me out.

287
00:40:43,858 --> 00:40:45,859
Why don't you be quiet?

288
00:40:45,944 --> 00:40:47,945
You're being rude to our guests.

289
00:40:50,532 --> 00:40:52,574
I don't know who you are,

290
00:40:53,743 --> 00:40:56,829
but I'm Jindayu Gomune.

291
00:40:57,705 --> 00:40:59,623
I am Itto Ogami.

292
00:41:00,792 --> 00:41:02,793
I've come with a few questions.

293
00:41:03,962 --> 00:41:05,587
Come this way.

294
00:41:05,672 --> 00:41:06,880
But, boss -

295
00:41:06,965 --> 00:41:08,465
Show him the way.

296
00:41:12,887 --> 00:41:17,683
Do you intend to find O-YUKI and kill her?

297
00:41:19,894 --> 00:41:23,105
An assassin would have no other purpose.

298
00:41:26,067 --> 00:41:29,194
Hunted by such a skilled swordsman
as you are...

299
00:41:30,947 --> 00:41:33,740
What a poor girl.

300
00:41:36,786 --> 00:41:39,204
Did Owari Domain hire you?

301
00:41:45,587 --> 00:41:50,966
What a foolish question to ask of one
who lives the way of the assassin.

302
00:41:51,801 --> 00:41:53,218
Forgive me.

303
00:41:53,553 --> 00:41:57,139
Yes, O-YUKI was a Gomune woman.

304
00:41:59,100 --> 00:42:01,602
She practiced short swords from childhood.

305
00:42:02,103 --> 00:42:06,940
She made an art of her skills
and performed on the street.

306
00:42:26,461 --> 00:42:29,129
o-Yuki's skills with the short swords

307
00:42:29,964 --> 00:42:32,799
caught the eye of the Lord of Owari

308
00:42:32,884 --> 00:42:35,719
who was traveling incognito.

309
00:42:37,263 --> 00:42:42,601
The Lord of Owari had
a great passion for martial arts.

310
00:42:43,895 --> 00:42:46,647
O-YUKI was hired as a sword mistress

311
00:42:46,731 --> 00:42:52,027
and taught the short sword
to the women serving the domain.

312
00:42:52,654 --> 00:42:58,325
This is as much as I can tell you
as head of Gomune.

313
00:43:00,620 --> 00:43:03,121
But as to what happened
to O-YUKI afterwards

314
00:43:04,123 --> 00:43:09,419
and why she got herself tattooed
to pursue the path of slaughter,

315
00:43:10,171 --> 00:43:12,172
that is none of my concern.

316
00:43:14,509 --> 00:43:18,929
I only hear rumors,
and I've never confirmed them.

317
00:43:19,973 --> 00:43:23,517
On the other hand, even if I knew,

318
00:43:24,227 --> 00:43:26,478
it's not my place to talk.

319
00:43:28,356 --> 00:43:30,023
You're right.

320
00:43:31,693 --> 00:43:35,904
She's not a Gomune woman anymore.

321
00:43:39,826 --> 00:43:42,536
On the Kiso Highway, near Akasaka, I hear,

322
00:43:44,080 --> 00:43:47,249
there is a hot spring resort
called Tsuta-no-YU.

323
00:43:48,793 --> 00:43:51,878
Those who wish to succeed on a quest

324
00:43:52,380 --> 00:43:56,842
visit this place and pray
at the Water Flower Shrine

325
00:43:58,136 --> 00:44:03,015
and purify themselves in the water
for seven days and seven nights,

326
00:44:03,099 --> 00:44:04,599
or so they say.

327
00:44:06,811 --> 00:44:11,523
Since you are on a quest,
you might as well visit there.

328
00:44:12,734 --> 00:44:14,151
Many thanks.

329
00:44:15,403 --> 00:44:16,403
Excuse me.

330
00:44:20,950 --> 00:44:21,950
Master Ogami.

331
00:44:25,413 --> 00:44:27,748
O-YUKI is my daughter.

332
00:44:52,398 --> 00:44:57,194
TSUTA-YA INN
Tsuta-no-YU is at the top of that hill.

333
00:44:57,695 --> 00:45:00,697
But it's such a lonely place.

334
00:45:00,782 --> 00:45:04,326
No one goes up there much now.

335
00:45:15,755 --> 00:45:18,757
What a laugh.
You dare challenge me to a duel?

336
00:45:18,841 --> 00:45:23,804
Shut up! I won't stop until I discover
the truth about your murderous illusion.

337
00:45:37,026 --> 00:45:38,652
What are you looking at?

338
00:45:39,487 --> 00:45:42,364
Stare at the flames and you will lose.

339
00:45:45,535 --> 00:45:47,035
Don't look at the flames.

340
00:45:47,829 --> 00:45:50,330
Be enchanted and you will lose.

341
00:45:52,458 --> 00:45:55,127
Don't get drawn into my illusion.

342
00:45:59,966 --> 00:46:01,341
Look at my eyes.

343
00:46:03,344 --> 00:46:04,845
Don't look at the flames.

344
00:46:05,680 --> 00:46:08,515
Look at my eyes and fight.

345
00:46:17,817 --> 00:46:20,235
My eyes. Look at them.

346
00:46:23,030 --> 00:46:24,531
Look at my eyes.

347
00:46:25,533 --> 00:46:28,160
My eyes. Look at them.

348
00:46:29,120 --> 00:46:31,455
Look at my eyes.

349
00:47:02,069 --> 00:47:04,112
What a beauty.

350
00:47:05,072 --> 00:47:07,741
You don't need to be a sword mistress.

351
00:47:09,994 --> 00:47:13,997
There's only one reason for a woman
to be passionate about martial arts.

352
00:47:14,540 --> 00:47:17,918
It's because she's too ugly
to get married.

353
00:47:34,810 --> 00:47:37,020
You woke up too late!

354
00:47:41,442 --> 00:47:44,110
You can bite off your tongue
when I'm done.

355
00:48:52,179 --> 00:48:53,179
Daigoro.

356
00:49:14,160 --> 00:49:18,204
He never knew his mother.
Please forgive him.

357
00:49:28,716 --> 00:49:32,427
Please, I beg you.

358
00:49:32,887 --> 00:49:34,929
Kill o-YUKI.

359
00:49:41,562 --> 00:49:43,104
Excuse me, sir,

360
00:49:43,898 --> 00:49:47,859
but Tsuta-no-YU here is visited
by those who have an earnest wish

361
00:49:47,943 --> 00:49:53,698
to purify themselves and to pray
at the Water Flower Shrine.

362
00:49:55,326 --> 00:49:58,828
Do you have such a wish, too?

363
00:50:01,874 --> 00:50:05,460
Lt must be an assassin's wish.

364
00:50:39,286 --> 00:50:42,330
Deserter YUKI,
by order of our lord we'll kill you.

365
00:50:43,249 --> 00:50:44,290
Prepare to die.

366
00:51:16,991 --> 00:51:21,494
I heard you were after me.

367
00:51:24,582 --> 00:51:29,586
I have also heard your name -
the assassin Lone Wolf and Cub.

368
00:51:32,590 --> 00:51:35,592
You cut off the top-knots
of the Owari vassals.

369
00:51:37,011 --> 00:51:38,887
I want to ask you why.

370
00:51:39,638 --> 00:51:42,182
I am a deserter from the Owari Domain.

371
00:51:43,684 --> 00:51:48,688
Naturally, the Lord of Owari is furious
and sends men to execute me.

372
00:51:50,691 --> 00:51:54,194
If I cut off their top-knots
and send them back,

373
00:51:55,362 --> 00:51:57,197
in time,

374
00:51:57,698 --> 00:52:00,700
the object of my vendetta, Enki Kozuka,

375
00:52:02,369 --> 00:52:04,871
will be sent after me.

376
00:52:07,750 --> 00:52:08,792
That is why.

377
00:52:08,876 --> 00:52:10,502
Then I shall ask you this.

378
00:52:11,879 --> 00:52:15,381
Those who lose their top-knots
have their families abolished.

379
00:52:16,550 --> 00:52:20,553
Some family members have swallowed
their hatred and committed suicide.

380
00:52:22,556 --> 00:52:25,391
How do you answer their bitterness?

381
00:52:26,435 --> 00:52:30,647
You've involved others in your quest
to fulfill your wish.

382
00:52:31,899 --> 00:52:33,233
Now they too have wishes.

383
00:52:37,863 --> 00:52:42,492
I met your father - Master Jindayu Gomune.

384
00:52:44,203 --> 00:52:45,912
As we parted,

385
00:52:46,789 --> 00:52:50,250
he revealed to me
that you are his daughter.

386
00:52:51,418 --> 00:52:53,378
My own father -

387
00:52:58,926 --> 00:53:00,343
My own father...

388
00:53:03,472 --> 00:53:05,348
wishes for...

389
00:53:07,768 --> 00:53:09,936
my death, as well?

390
00:53:10,688 --> 00:53:13,022
Sometimes I wonder

391
00:53:14,191 --> 00:53:17,193
how lucky it would be
for a child to have a parent...

392
00:53:20,948 --> 00:53:22,949
who'd wish for his death.

393
00:53:39,300 --> 00:53:40,466
O-YUKI.

394
00:53:41,176 --> 00:53:42,719
Enki Kozuka.

395
00:53:44,013 --> 00:53:45,471
At last, you're here.

396
00:53:50,936 --> 00:53:53,938
You appear to have grown
even more beautiful.

397
00:53:55,149 --> 00:53:59,152
A Gomune woman looks better
dressed for the part.

398
00:54:03,490 --> 00:54:04,616
You have help?

399
00:54:04,700 --> 00:54:08,703
I don't need help to defeat
a sorcerer like you.

400
00:54:08,787 --> 00:54:09,787
Come on!

401
00:54:09,872 --> 00:54:11,873
It's different from the last time.

402
00:54:13,083 --> 00:54:15,585
This time, you must die.

403
00:54:35,314 --> 00:54:36,522
What are you looking at?

404
00:54:37,775 --> 00:54:40,151
I told you. Don't look at the flames.

405
00:54:44,865 --> 00:54:46,115
My eyes.

406
00:54:47,117 --> 00:54:49,327
Look at my eyes.

407
00:54:49,411 --> 00:54:52,497
My eyes.

408
00:54:52,998 --> 00:54:56,000
Look at my eyes.

409
00:54:57,169 --> 00:55:00,213
My eyes. Look at my eyes.

410
00:57:08,884 --> 00:57:10,927
I'm not showing my skin...

411
00:57:13,597 --> 00:57:15,139
as I die.

412
00:57:23,023 --> 00:57:24,524
I'm glad.

413
00:58:09,236 --> 00:58:14,574
I won't let your body be exposed
to anybody's eyes ever again.

414
00:59:25,187 --> 00:59:28,189
For you to take the trouble
to bring her home -

415
00:59:29,399 --> 00:59:32,401
I don't know how to thank you.

416
00:59:36,198 --> 00:59:38,199
Let me ask you.

417
00:59:39,576 --> 00:59:44,538
Her end was not unsightly, was it?

418
00:59:45,540 --> 00:59:47,959
Lt was a magnificent end.

419
00:59:50,837 --> 00:59:51,921
Excuse me.

420
00:59:52,422 --> 00:59:53,923
Just a moment.

421
00:59:56,009 --> 00:59:59,428
You did her a service
by watching over her death.

422
01:00:00,931 --> 01:00:04,517
Would you stay with us
and honor her memory?

423
01:00:05,852 --> 01:00:07,853
Consider it fate.

424
01:00:08,897 --> 01:00:13,067
I wish you to tell me
about her last moments.

425
01:00:27,332 --> 01:00:32,378
You say he killed both Enki and O-YUKI?

426
01:00:33,130 --> 01:00:37,967
My men witnessed it with their own eyes.

427
01:00:38,468 --> 01:00:42,263
Lt turns out the rumor was true.

428
01:00:43,223 --> 01:00:46,017
Lt seems he means to defy,

429
01:00:46,727 --> 01:00:51,063
not only the Shogunate,
but you as well, Lord of Owari.

430
01:00:51,898 --> 01:00:55,401
Not only has he arrogantly
entered Owari Territory,

431
01:00:55,485 --> 01:01:01,407
but he has been staying with the lowly
and despised Gomune community.

432
01:01:01,491 --> 01:01:03,576
Lt is proof of his intentions.

433
01:01:03,660 --> 01:01:06,662
If you leave him alone,

434
01:01:07,372 --> 01:01:11,625
you will be the laughingstock
of the whole nation.

435
01:01:12,127 --> 01:01:13,627
Unforgivable.

436
01:01:15,922 --> 01:01:17,006
Damn!

437
01:01:28,852 --> 01:01:30,853
-Boss!
-Master!

438
01:01:31,188 --> 01:01:33,731
The Owari samurai are coming.

439
01:01:40,447 --> 01:01:42,156
Come out!

440
01:01:42,240 --> 01:01:44,533
Come out, all of you!

441
01:01:44,618 --> 01:01:46,285
What's going on?

442
01:01:48,455 --> 01:01:50,831
Who are you? We won't let you pass!

443
01:01:51,666 --> 01:01:52,333
Shoot them.

444
01:01:58,924 --> 01:02:01,300
They're here, boss.

445
01:02:01,802 --> 01:02:03,928
Out of the way!

446
01:02:04,012 --> 01:02:05,012
What the -

447
01:02:06,473 --> 01:02:08,974
Are you Jindayu Gomune?

448
01:02:09,851 --> 01:02:11,102
Yes.

449
01:02:12,145 --> 01:02:16,732
What is all this commotion?

450
01:02:16,817 --> 01:02:18,526
What is it?

451
01:02:18,610 --> 01:02:20,319
We have a report

452
01:02:20,404 --> 01:02:25,074
the former Executioner and assassin
Lone Wolf and Cub is in this village.

453
01:02:25,158 --> 01:02:27,410
Turn him over immediately.

454
01:02:27,494 --> 01:02:30,746
Otherwise, we have orders
to burn down the village

455
01:02:30,831 --> 01:02:33,165
and kill all of you Gomune members.

456
01:02:33,875 --> 01:02:35,543
I refuse.

457
01:02:35,627 --> 01:02:36,877
What?

458
01:02:38,004 --> 01:02:41,048
Do you want us to burn everything
and kill you all?

459
01:02:51,476 --> 01:02:53,436
Lt was about time to leave.

460
01:02:53,520 --> 01:02:56,063
You mustn't go, Master Ogami.

461
01:02:58,316 --> 01:02:59,817
Master Jindayu,

462
01:03:01,069 --> 01:03:03,946
I came here of my own free will.

463
01:03:05,282 --> 01:03:07,616
Let me go of my own free will.

464
01:03:07,701 --> 01:03:09,034
You mustn't.

465
01:03:09,786 --> 01:03:12,371
Do you intend to defy the Owari Domain?

466
01:03:12,956 --> 01:03:18,627
Master Ogami is a guest of Jindayu Gomune.

467
01:03:19,379 --> 01:03:24,049
Imagine if the Lord of Owari
had invited a guest.

468
01:03:24,551 --> 01:03:29,305
What would you do if we demanded
the guest be handed over to us?

469
01:03:29,389 --> 01:03:30,639
Fool!

470
01:03:31,641 --> 01:03:34,935
You're but a lowly and despised Gomune.

471
01:03:35,020 --> 01:03:36,896
Know your place.

472
01:03:36,980 --> 01:03:38,939
A word for you then.

473
01:03:39,941 --> 01:03:42,693
Your lord's tribute is 61 9,000 koku.

474
01:03:43,403 --> 01:03:46,989
He has about 4,000 vassals.

475
01:03:48,200 --> 01:03:52,745
Compare that with the Gomune members
under my command.

476
01:03:52,829 --> 01:03:57,666
They number 200,000 in more than
60 states across the nation.

477
01:03:58,668 --> 01:04:01,921
I am not comparing
our numbers or strength.

478
01:04:02,422 --> 01:04:07,843
I am talking about respect
as human beings.

479
01:04:08,345 --> 01:04:11,805
The Lord of Owari is human,
but we are human as well.

480
01:04:11,890 --> 01:04:15,559
We all eat and shit.
There's no difference.

481
01:04:16,269 --> 01:04:17,853
It's only natural for humans

482
01:04:17,938 --> 01:04:21,941
to value honor and extend courtesy.

483
01:04:23,109 --> 01:04:27,571
You use your force
and demand we hand over our guest,

484
01:04:27,656 --> 01:04:29,657
but we can't give him up.

485
01:04:31,034 --> 01:04:35,120
We have our pride as Gomune.

486
01:04:35,205 --> 01:04:36,705
Insolence!

487
01:04:41,586 --> 01:04:42,586
Are you mad?

488
01:04:42,671 --> 01:04:44,380
Boss!

489
01:04:44,464 --> 01:04:45,965
Bastards!

490
01:04:46,049 --> 01:04:47,550
Don't fight!

491
01:04:47,634 --> 01:04:49,134
You mustn't fight.

492
01:04:51,638 --> 01:04:53,639
Master Jindayu.

493
01:04:55,517 --> 01:04:57,226
Master Ogami.

494
01:04:59,312 --> 01:05:04,316
Take my head
and bring it to the Lord of Owari.

495
01:05:04,401 --> 01:05:05,568
And then...

496
01:05:07,904 --> 01:05:09,446
tell him

497
01:05:10,156 --> 01:05:14,660
I, her parent, asked you to kill O-YUKI.

498
01:05:18,748 --> 01:05:22,751
O-YUKI deserted the domain
and dishonored him.

499
01:05:23,878 --> 01:05:26,171
So, for the Lord of Owari,

500
01:05:27,549 --> 01:05:31,760
her parent had her taken care of.

501
01:05:33,096 --> 01:05:37,433
Then her parent died

502
01:05:38,143 --> 01:05:42,104
as an apology to him.

503
01:05:43,523 --> 01:05:45,357
Master Jindayu.

504
01:05:45,442 --> 01:05:47,067
The heart of a parent.

505
01:05:47,777 --> 01:05:50,279
The heart of a child, it must be.

506
01:05:53,491 --> 01:05:54,575
O-YUKI is -

507
01:05:57,787 --> 01:06:00,164
O-YUKI is saying,

508
01:06:00,665 --> 01:06:02,875
"Hurry and come over."

509
01:06:04,210 --> 01:06:06,629
She is calling me.

510
01:06:08,965 --> 01:06:10,257
Boss!

511
01:06:10,759 --> 01:06:13,260
Damn it!

512
01:06:13,803 --> 01:06:14,803
Damn.

513
01:06:15,472 --> 01:06:17,973
-Boss.
-Damn.

514
01:06:23,605 --> 01:06:26,315
I'll have an audience
with the Lord of Owari.

515
01:06:28,109 --> 01:06:29,151
Lead the way.

516
01:07:05,855 --> 01:07:07,856
Lower your head. Show respect.

517
01:07:10,777 --> 01:07:13,112
A word for the Lord of Owari.

518
01:07:14,823 --> 01:07:17,533
I didn't come as a prisoner.

519
01:07:19,452 --> 01:07:21,453
I came of my own accord.

520
01:07:21,538 --> 01:07:22,496
What?

521
01:07:24,124 --> 01:07:29,503
Lt appears all this trouble started
with Enki Kozuka's misconduct.

522
01:07:31,047 --> 01:07:37,052
O-YUKI suffered a shame worse than death
at Enki's hands, and so she deserted.

523
01:07:38,388 --> 01:07:43,976
She killed Enki with her own hands
and avenged herself for her honor.

524
01:07:45,478 --> 01:07:50,274
I have presented myself here
to inform you of this account.

525
01:07:50,692 --> 01:07:52,693
Are you out of your mind?

526
01:07:53,653 --> 01:07:56,363
To whom are you telling such a tale?

527
01:07:56,448 --> 01:08:00,492
Jindayu Gomune has no association
with the Owari Domain.

528
01:08:01,703 --> 01:08:03,871
It's unforgivable you had him killed.

529
01:08:03,955 --> 01:08:05,622
Insolence!

530
01:08:05,707 --> 01:08:08,041
I'm Yoshinao Tokugawa.

531
01:08:08,543 --> 01:08:10,544
Where do you think you are?

532
01:08:11,713 --> 01:08:16,341
My son and I live
on the Demon Way in Hell.

533
01:08:17,677 --> 01:08:22,264
The Tokugawas, the Owaris and even
the Shogun's crest do not concern us.

534
01:08:23,099 --> 01:08:25,893
Kill him. Kill that idiot.

535
01:08:25,977 --> 01:08:27,186
Daigoro.

536
01:08:39,824 --> 01:08:41,325
Your life is mine.

537
01:08:41,826 --> 01:08:43,118
Don't move.

538
01:08:46,790 --> 01:08:48,874
If you dare to move an inch,

539
01:08:50,210 --> 01:08:54,838
the life of the Lord of Owari
and his domain will be lost in an instant.

540
01:08:54,923 --> 01:08:56,590
ls that what you want?

541
01:08:59,844 --> 01:09:02,054
Let me tell your Battle Minister this -

542
01:09:03,306 --> 01:09:06,934
my son and I shall hold the Lord of Owari

543
01:09:08,269 --> 01:09:10,395
until we have safely left this castle.

544
01:09:11,898 --> 01:09:13,315
Please stand up.

545
01:09:17,237 --> 01:09:18,987
Please lead the way.

546
01:09:23,993 --> 01:09:26,161
-Damn!
-Don't interfere.

547
01:09:26,246 --> 01:09:27,496
You mustn't interfere.

548
01:09:27,580 --> 01:09:29,081
Don't interfere.

549
01:09:31,501 --> 01:09:34,211
Master Ogami, please wait a moment.

550
01:09:39,759 --> 01:09:42,261
Wait a moment, please.

551
01:09:43,263 --> 01:09:46,139
Please take me with you.

552
01:09:47,976 --> 01:09:49,560
I humbly refuse.

553
01:09:50,061 --> 01:09:52,563
Then please spare our lord.

554
01:09:54,274 --> 01:09:55,774
Please don't worry.

555
01:09:57,110 --> 01:09:59,444
I'll return him safely.

556
01:10:43,239 --> 01:10:44,489
Hurry, my lord!

557
01:11:16,022 --> 01:11:17,230
Lord of Owari!

558
01:11:28,242 --> 01:11:30,202
Please lie down.

559
01:11:59,524 --> 01:12:00,649
Stop!

560
01:12:00,733 --> 01:12:02,234
-My lord!
-Don't fire!

561
01:12:07,031 --> 01:12:10,283
Daigoro, listen carefully.

562
01:12:10,785 --> 01:12:13,286
I'm entering the Demon Way in Hell.

563
01:12:13,788 --> 01:12:18,291
If I don't return, you die here too.

564
01:12:18,793 --> 01:12:19,793
Understand?

565
01:13:15,183 --> 01:13:17,184
-Attack!
-Yes, sir!

566
01:16:08,773 --> 01:16:10,774
Retsudo, here I come!

567
01:16:16,530 --> 01:16:18,031
Come on.

568
01:17:32,815 --> 01:17:37,360
Itto Ogami,
this blade comes from the Yagyu Clan!

569
01:17:40,031 --> 01:17:41,031
You dare...

570
01:17:58,424 --> 01:18:43,551
Papa.

571
01:18:51,185 --> 01:18:52,394
Daigoro.

572
01:18:53,312 --> 01:18:58,817
Pull the sword out of my back.

573
01:19:49,869 --> 01:19:54,873
Impressive how you lived though it,
Itto Ogami.

574
01:19:57,418 --> 01:20:00,753
Survive, no matter what happens.

575
01:20:02,256 --> 01:20:06,384
Neither Yagyus or Kurokuwas
shall defeat you.

576
01:20:06,886 --> 01:20:08,386
I shall.

577
01:20:09,722 --> 01:20:16,728
Live until the day I send you to hell.

578
01:21:09,031 --> 01:21:14,035
THE END
