1
00:00:25,984 --> 00:00:27,986
Oh, right.

2
00:00:29,070 --> 00:00:33,033
I escorting Kikuchiyo-san
to Nijo Castle, and then...

3
00:00:49,049 --> 00:00:50,008
Huh?

4
00:00:53,011 --> 00:00:54,012
Kikuchiyo-san?

5
00:00:54,971 --> 00:00:57,057
Wh-What's wrong? Why so formal?

6
00:01:00,018 --> 00:01:02,020
Wait, who are you?

7
00:01:14,991 --> 00:01:19,037
Blue Miburo

8
00:02:34,988 --> 00:02:37,991
Pardon me for disturbing you
at this late hour.

9
00:02:38,032 --> 00:02:44,956
My family has long served the line
of shoguns as their shadows.

10
00:02:44,998 --> 00:02:46,040
Sh-Shadows?

11
00:02:47,000 --> 00:02:48,960
Does he mean as body double?

12
00:02:49,002 --> 00:02:52,964
I've heard of them,
but I didn't know they really existed.

13
00:02:52,964 --> 00:02:58,970
The member of my family who most
closely resembles the Shogun gets chosen.

14
00:02:58,970 --> 00:03:02,015
And, well, that was my humble self.

15
00:03:02,056 --> 00:03:05,018
Forgive me, but you look
almost nothing alike!

16
00:03:05,059 --> 00:03:07,979
U-Um, what's your name?

17
00:03:07,979 --> 00:03:10,023
A shadow has no name.

18
00:03:10,023 --> 00:03:11,983
This guy's kind of a pain!

19
00:03:12,984 --> 00:03:17,030
For saving my lord in his time of need,

20
00:03:17,947 --> 00:03:20,992
you have my sincerest gratitude.

21
00:03:20,992 --> 00:03:24,954
O-Oh, please. So many people
have thanked me already.

22
00:03:24,954 --> 00:03:25,997
I don't deserve more.

23
00:03:26,039 --> 00:03:28,958
Um, please raise your head.

24
00:03:28,958 --> 00:03:34,005
Unworthy though I am, this is how I feel.
Please permit me to show it to my satisfaction.

25
00:03:38,009 --> 00:03:38,968
Now...

26
00:03:40,970 --> 00:03:42,055
He acts like the real thing!

27
00:03:43,014 --> 00:03:45,058
Accompanying His Lordship
must have been eye-opening.

28
00:03:45,058 --> 00:03:46,017
Huh?

29
00:03:46,059 --> 00:03:52,023
His Lordship prizes the lives
of others above his own.

30
00:03:52,065 --> 00:03:55,068
Yes, that did surprise me.

31
00:03:56,027 --> 00:03:57,070
I mean, he's the Shogun.

32
00:03:57,987 --> 00:04:00,990
Yes, he is. And yet...

33
00:04:01,032 --> 00:04:03,076
That's no courtly laugh!

34
00:04:04,994 --> 00:04:07,038
U-Um, is Kikuchiyo-san...

35
00:04:11,000 --> 00:04:16,005
Master Nio, I promise to rush
to your aid in your hour of need.

36
00:04:16,965 --> 00:04:19,008
Th-Thank you.

37
00:04:26,015 --> 00:04:28,017
Huh? What's going on?

38
00:04:28,977 --> 00:04:30,979
I hear voices in the distance.

39
00:04:31,020 --> 00:04:32,021
Expel the barbarians!

40
00:04:32,021 --> 00:04:33,022
Foreigners out!

41
00:04:33,022 --> 00:04:35,024
Expel the barbarians!

42
00:04:35,024 --> 00:04:41,990
Foreigners out!
"Expel the barbarians"? It can't be!
Inside Nijo Castle? But why?
Expel the barbarians!
Foreigners out!
Expel the barbarians!

43
00:04:41,990 --> 00:04:45,034
Foreigners out!
I-I'm tired. Time to sleep.

44
00:04:51,040 --> 00:04:54,002
Where am I? The fog's so thick.

45
00:04:56,963 --> 00:04:57,964
I can hear water.

46
00:05:00,049 --> 00:05:02,051
Is this a river, maybe?

47
00:05:02,969 --> 00:05:03,970
Here goes.

48
00:05:05,013 --> 00:05:07,015
Wait, could this be...

49
00:05:08,057 --> 00:05:09,058
Ow.

50
00:05:13,021 --> 00:05:18,026
Is a headbutt any way to repay me for
my concern over your tossing and turning?

51
00:05:18,026 --> 00:05:21,029
Kikuchiyo-san! It's really you this time!

52
00:05:23,072 --> 00:05:25,074
You saw the River Sanzu?

53
00:05:25,074 --> 00:05:27,076
Y-Yes, I did.

54
00:05:27,994 --> 00:05:30,038
I nearly crossed over
to the land of the dead.

55
00:05:30,997 --> 00:05:32,040
That's strange.

56
00:05:32,957 --> 00:05:36,044
Your wounds aren't life-threatening.

57
00:05:36,044 --> 00:05:37,003
Huh?

58
00:05:37,045 --> 00:05:41,007
I, uh, guess you're right.

59
00:05:42,050 --> 00:05:45,011
What was that river, then?

60
00:05:45,053 --> 00:05:49,974
That aside, I'm astonished
Kagemaru showed himself.

61
00:05:49,974 --> 00:05:52,018
So that man is called Kagemaru?

62
00:05:52,018 --> 00:05:54,062
Yes. That was truly unusual.

63
00:05:55,021 --> 00:05:58,024
I suppose it shows how much
gratitude he feels toward you.

64
00:05:59,067 --> 00:06:00,985
What?

65
00:06:01,027 --> 00:06:02,028
Still...

66
00:06:03,029 --> 00:06:05,031
I'm glad we both made it here safely.

67
00:06:05,031 --> 00:06:05,990
Same.

68
00:06:06,991 --> 00:06:10,995
I hurt my left hand falling off my horse,
but ultimately suffered no worse.

69
00:06:10,995 --> 00:06:13,039
I got the stuffing beaten out of me.

70
00:06:13,998 --> 00:06:17,960
I hear the three men
Naozumi slashed will live.

71
00:06:18,002 --> 00:06:19,045
My horse is fine as well.

72
00:06:19,045 --> 00:06:22,006
Really? Thank goodness!

73
00:06:22,048 --> 00:06:25,009
And I retrieved your wooden sword.

74
00:06:25,009 --> 00:06:27,011
Oh, thank you.

75
00:06:31,974 --> 00:06:33,017
How funny.

76
00:06:33,017 --> 00:06:35,019
Tell me more of the Miburo.

77
00:06:35,061 --> 00:06:37,063
Okay. Remember I mentioned Kondo-san?

78
00:06:37,980 --> 00:06:42,026
One sip of sake knocks him out cold,
but he's untouchable at sumo wrestling.

79
00:06:42,026 --> 00:06:44,987
He tosses everyone else
around like rag dolls.

80
00:06:47,031 --> 00:06:50,076
I would love to meet these other Miburo.

81
00:06:52,995 --> 00:06:54,997
Quite the view, isn't it?

82
00:06:55,039 --> 00:06:58,000
Yes. It's like another world.

83
00:07:00,002 --> 00:07:03,047
So, um, I thought I was just hearing things,

84
00:07:03,965 --> 00:07:05,967
but there was shouting in the night.

85
00:07:06,008 --> 00:07:06,968
Hm?

86
00:07:07,009 --> 00:07:10,054
The voices reached
all the way to the castle.

87
00:07:11,055 --> 00:07:13,057
Oh, so you heard that.

88
00:07:13,975 --> 00:07:18,980
They chanted "Expel the barbarians."
Were they shouting at you, Kikuchiyo-san?

89
00:07:19,021 --> 00:07:20,982
It's so wearisome.

90
00:07:21,023 --> 00:07:25,027
They never tire of fussing
in front of the gates every night.

91
00:07:25,027 --> 00:07:27,989
I guess you have it rough, too, huh?

92
00:07:28,072 --> 00:07:30,992
Here you are, trying so hard to avoid a war.

93
00:07:33,953 --> 00:07:37,039
Anyone would. That's what I'm here for.

94
00:07:37,999 --> 00:07:39,000
What do you mean?

95
00:07:39,041 --> 00:07:42,003
The decision to "expel the
barbarians" has been made.

96
00:07:43,004 --> 00:07:48,050
The Emperor, the court, and recently,
my guardian, Yoshinobu,

97
00:07:49,010 --> 00:07:52,054
have all been pressuring me
to pick a date to enact the policy.

98
00:07:53,973 --> 00:07:56,058
It won't be easy to stop this momentum.

99
00:07:57,018 --> 00:07:59,061
No human effort can make a difference.

100
00:07:59,979 --> 00:08:02,064
It's as though the river of history
is sweeping us along.

101
00:08:05,026 --> 00:08:08,029
That's what I mean by "Anyone would."

102
00:08:08,988 --> 00:08:13,034
A single person is next to meaningless
before the river's flow.

103
00:08:14,035 --> 00:08:17,997
I need only be a marionette.
A puppet of the times.

104
00:08:18,998 --> 00:08:22,043
But you won't become a puppet,
will you, Kikuchiyo-san?

105
00:08:26,005 --> 00:08:28,007
I mean, you fought back.

106
00:08:29,008 --> 00:08:31,052
Even so, I will not allow you to make war.

107
00:08:32,011 --> 00:08:35,056
That is my verdict as
leader of the samurai clans.

108
00:08:36,015 --> 00:08:40,978
Even when your life was in danger,
you made up your mind not to fight.

109
00:08:42,021 --> 00:08:47,026
Even if you're a toy boat in the current,
you still struggle, and you'll keep struggling.

110
00:08:47,985 --> 00:08:50,029
You're our Shogun, Kikuchiyo-san.

111
00:08:50,988 --> 00:08:52,073
And I'm glad of that.

112
00:08:55,993 --> 00:08:57,995
And who are you to judge?

113
00:08:57,995 --> 00:09:00,998
Oh, I'm so sorry! I said more than I should!

114
00:09:00,998 --> 00:09:02,041
I beg your pardon!

115
00:09:04,043 --> 00:09:06,003
Wait, a river?

116
00:09:07,004 --> 00:09:09,966
Could that have been the river of time?

117
00:09:10,967 --> 00:09:13,970
No, that's ridiculous.
That was just a dream.

118
00:09:16,013 --> 00:09:19,976
You must not have eaten.
I'll have a meal prepared.

119
00:09:19,976 --> 00:09:21,978
No! Don't!

120
00:09:21,978 --> 00:09:24,981
I couldn't bear it if you
fed me and no one else.

121
00:09:25,982 --> 00:09:27,984
True. Taro would make
a nuisance of himself.

122
00:09:29,026 --> 00:09:31,070
Do you want anything else, then?

123
00:09:31,070 --> 00:09:33,072
D-Do I want anything?

124
00:09:33,990 --> 00:09:35,032
Anything at all.

125
00:09:37,994 --> 00:09:39,996
Can I really ask for anything?

126
00:09:48,045 --> 00:09:50,006
Her name is Black Daikon.

127
00:09:50,006 --> 00:09:51,048
B-Black Daikon?

128
00:09:51,048 --> 00:09:53,050
Th-That's an unusual name.

129
00:09:53,050 --> 00:09:56,012
She's black, and she likes daikon radishes.

130
00:09:56,012 --> 00:09:57,013
I named her.

131
00:09:57,013 --> 00:09:58,055
My lord! You must not!

132
00:09:58,973 --> 00:10:00,057
Leading a horse is beneath Your Lordship.

133
00:10:00,975 --> 00:10:02,059
Oh, be quiet.

134
00:10:02,059 --> 00:10:04,061
I owe Nio a great debt.

135
00:10:04,061 --> 00:10:06,981
Make way, or go without dinner.

136
00:10:07,023 --> 00:10:09,984
Our Shogun's kind of pushy.

137
00:10:11,986 --> 00:10:13,029
I-I'm scared!

138
00:10:13,029 --> 00:10:15,031
You mustn't tense up like that.

139
00:10:15,031 --> 00:10:17,074
Hang loose and let the horse take control.

140
00:10:17,074 --> 00:10:19,994
"H-Hang loose"?
Keep hold of the reins!

141
00:10:25,958 --> 00:10:28,002
Very good. You have a knack for this.

142
00:10:30,004 --> 00:10:32,006
Good girl, Black Daikon.

143
00:10:33,049 --> 00:10:35,009
Aren't horses grand?

144
00:10:35,051 --> 00:10:40,014
I would have loved to show her to my wife,
but I can hardly lead her back to Edo.

145
00:10:40,973 --> 00:10:44,018
I will have to find some
other souvenir for Princess Kazu.

146
00:10:44,977 --> 00:10:47,063
You're married, Kikuchiyo-san?

147
00:10:49,023 --> 00:10:51,025
And to a charming lady.

148
00:10:51,025 --> 00:10:54,987
But she puffs up like this
when she's in a temper.

149
00:10:56,030 --> 00:10:57,031
That's adorable.

150
00:11:00,951 --> 00:11:04,997
Nio, would you leave the Miburo
and come serve me?

151
00:11:05,039 --> 00:11:05,998
Huh?

152
00:11:06,040 --> 00:11:10,002
I wish to bring you home to Edo as well.

153
00:11:10,002 --> 00:11:12,004
I-I mean, this is so sudden.

154
00:11:12,004 --> 00:11:15,049
Oh, just say yes! Say it, or I'll make
the horse buck and throw you off!

155
00:11:15,049 --> 00:11:18,010
Hey! Don't do that, Kikuchiyo-san!

156
00:11:18,052 --> 00:11:20,012
I was only joking.

157
00:11:20,012 --> 00:11:22,014
Y-You scared me.

158
00:11:22,014 --> 00:11:24,016
That wasn't funny.

159
00:11:25,059 --> 00:11:26,060
Forgive me.

160
00:11:27,019 --> 00:11:30,022
I really felt that way until last night.

161
00:11:30,981 --> 00:11:33,984
Then I recalled something
your grandmother said.

162
00:11:34,068 --> 00:11:36,987
You're a lord, so do a lord's work.

163
00:11:36,987 --> 00:11:39,990
We've all got our own stations
to stand our ground in.

164
00:11:39,990 --> 00:11:42,034
That's what work's all about.

165
00:11:43,035 --> 00:11:48,958
We all have our own stations and duties,
and we should each do them as best we can.

166
00:11:49,041 --> 00:11:51,001
So long as we share the same goal.

167
00:11:51,043 --> 00:11:52,962
Kikuchiyo-san.

168
00:11:54,004 --> 00:11:55,965
Myself, in this world.

169
00:11:56,006 --> 00:11:58,008
And you, in the world outside.

170
00:11:58,968 --> 00:12:02,012
Let us strive together for an age of peace.

171
00:12:03,013 --> 00:12:06,016
My Lord. The boy's companions have arrived.

172
00:12:07,059 --> 00:12:09,019
Our time is up.

173
00:12:14,984 --> 00:12:15,985
What is the way of the sword?

174
00:12:16,986 --> 00:12:20,990
When Naozumi posed that question,
you couldn't answer him.

175
00:12:21,991 --> 00:12:22,992
You're right.

176
00:12:24,034 --> 00:12:25,995
I don't fault you for that.

177
00:12:26,954 --> 00:12:30,040
But how should I know something like that?

178
00:12:31,000 --> 00:12:35,045
I'm not really even a samurai.
I was adopted by a dango seller.

179
00:12:35,963 --> 00:12:37,006
You're wrong.

180
00:12:37,965 --> 00:12:40,009
Money can buy samurai status these days.

181
00:12:40,050 --> 00:12:42,052
It's no longer a question of birth.

182
00:12:42,052 --> 00:12:45,973
Wh-What do you think it is, then?

183
00:12:47,016 --> 00:12:48,976
A state of mind.

184
00:12:49,018 --> 00:12:51,020
A-A state of mind?

185
00:12:52,021 --> 00:12:56,984
Naozumi claimed it was a matter of blood,
but such questions have no real answers.

186
00:12:57,026 --> 00:13:01,989
If you consider it a state of mind,
a perspective, the answers are endless.

187
00:13:02,031 --> 00:13:06,994
Samurai, peasant, or shogun,
man or woman, it makes no difference.

188
00:13:11,999 --> 00:13:14,001
What is the way of the sword to you?

189
00:13:18,047 --> 00:13:21,050
Tell me your answer when we meet again.

190
00:13:24,011 --> 00:13:25,054
There he is.

191
00:13:25,054 --> 00:13:27,014
Nio-kun!

192
00:13:27,014 --> 00:13:28,015
You're late.

193
00:13:28,015 --> 00:13:31,977
Whoa. He really came out of Nijo Castle.

194
00:13:34,063 --> 00:13:37,983
Guys! Thanks for coming to get me!

195
00:13:38,984 --> 00:13:40,986
Hijikata-san, are you all right?

196
00:13:40,986 --> 00:13:42,029
Of course I am.

197
00:13:42,029 --> 00:13:44,031
I bet you had a feast in there.

198
00:13:44,031 --> 00:13:45,991
I haven't eaten a thing.

199
00:13:45,991 --> 00:13:47,993
You've sure gone up in the world.

200
00:13:47,993 --> 00:13:48,994
Please don't.

201
00:13:48,994 --> 00:13:50,996
Were there pretty ladies? Well?

202
00:13:50,996 --> 00:13:51,956
No!

203
00:13:51,997 --> 00:13:54,083
w*** and women aside,
you must have gotten something.

204
00:13:55,000 --> 00:13:56,001
No, not a thing.

205
00:13:56,043 --> 00:13:59,964
Oh, but he did let me ride a horse.

206
00:13:59,964 --> 00:14:02,007
A horse? You rode a horse?

207
00:14:02,049 --> 00:14:04,051
Yup. It was a lot of fun.

208
00:14:04,051 --> 00:14:07,012
Huh. A horse. A horse, huh?

209
00:14:07,012 --> 00:14:09,056
Horses poop a lot, don't they?

210
00:14:09,056 --> 00:14:12,017
Yeah, they're a pain to clean up after.

211
00:14:13,018 --> 00:14:14,061
Kikuchiyo-san!

212
00:14:16,021 --> 00:14:17,982
Maybe it's not proper to say this...

213
00:14:20,985 --> 00:14:25,990
But between last night and today,
I had an amazing time!

214
00:14:29,034 --> 00:14:30,035
So did I!

215
00:14:34,039 --> 00:14:36,041
Farewell! Till we meet again!

216
00:14:37,001 --> 00:14:39,003
Yes! That's a promise!

217
00:14:46,010 --> 00:14:51,015
My lord, your features seem to
have changed in the course of a day.

218
00:14:52,975 --> 00:14:54,018
Kagemaru.

219
00:14:55,019 --> 00:14:58,981
For a shadow, you're an awful busybody!

220
00:15:02,985 --> 00:15:05,988
There's still hope for
this land and its people.

221
00:15:06,030 --> 00:15:07,072
What makes you say that?

222
00:15:09,033 --> 00:15:10,034
Nothing really.

223
00:15:11,994 --> 00:15:14,038
Now, let us get to work.

224
00:15:20,044 --> 00:15:22,004
I'd like to make a detour on the way.

225
00:15:22,046 --> 00:15:24,048
I'll catch up.

226
00:15:24,048 --> 00:15:26,008
What?

227
00:15:26,008 --> 00:15:27,051
What's the big idea?

228
00:15:27,051 --> 00:15:29,053
We trekked out here just to get you!

229
00:15:30,012 --> 00:15:32,014
Where do you want to go?

230
00:15:32,056 --> 00:15:33,015
A bunch of places.

231
00:15:33,974 --> 00:15:36,018
I have some things I want
and some things to check on.

232
00:15:36,060 --> 00:15:40,022
Nio, going back to the compound and
giving us all an explanation comes first.

233
00:15:40,981 --> 00:15:42,983
No. This comes first.

234
00:15:43,984 --> 00:15:45,986
Away I go!

235
00:15:46,987 --> 00:15:47,988
What was that about?

236
00:15:47,988 --> 00:15:48,989
Beats me.

237
00:15:48,989 --> 00:15:52,034
I'm not doing anything
if those guys jump him again.

238
00:15:53,035 --> 00:15:54,078
I'm back!

239
00:15:54,995 --> 00:15:58,999
Please gather round, everybody!
I have something to tell you!

240
00:16:04,046 --> 00:16:07,007
Strip down, Nio. It's your turn.

241
00:16:07,007 --> 00:16:10,010
Huh? But I've got something important to...

242
00:16:14,515 --> 00:16:16,558
Hey, this is Serizawa-san!

243
00:16:17,518 --> 00:16:18,560
I don't stand a chance!

244
00:16:18,560 --> 00:16:20,562
Just say he wins by default!

245
00:16:21,480 --> 00:16:23,565
Nio, I heard the whole story.

246
00:16:23,565 --> 00:16:24,483
Huh?

247
00:16:25,484 --> 00:16:29,488
You saved the Tokugawa Shogun's life, huh?

248
00:16:29,488 --> 00:16:34,535
N-No. I mean, you could say that,
but I basically got saved, too, so...

249
00:16:34,535 --> 00:16:37,454
Fooled you! Now's my chance!

250
00:16:39,540 --> 00:16:43,460
Nio, you rascal.

251
00:16:43,460 --> 00:16:44,461
Well done!

252
00:16:45,462 --> 00:16:47,464
An underhand throw!

253
00:16:47,506 --> 00:16:50,509
Oh, my. Nio-kun lost in the first round.

254
00:16:50,509 --> 00:16:51,552
I'm impressed!

255
00:16:52,469 --> 00:16:53,554
Have a manju as your prize.

256
00:16:54,471 --> 00:16:56,473
Th-Thank you, sir.

257
00:16:56,473 --> 00:16:57,516
Where'd he pull that from?!

258
00:16:57,516 --> 00:16:59,518
No fair! Why only Nio?

259
00:16:59,518 --> 00:17:02,479
Damn it. We got wiped out again?

260
00:17:02,521 --> 00:17:03,522
By the by, Nio...

261
00:17:04,481 --> 00:17:07,484
I hear you stayed at Nijo Castle,
where Lord Iemochi dwells.

262
00:17:07,484 --> 00:17:12,489
Yes. Kikuchiyo-san was so welcoming.
He's an amazing person.

263
00:17:13,490 --> 00:17:15,492
This is the Shogun's majesty!

264
00:17:17,244 --> 00:17:21,206
Tell me, were the fellows
who attacked you strong?

265
00:17:21,206 --> 00:17:23,250
A bunch of pushovers, I'll bet.

266
00:17:24,168 --> 00:17:26,211
No, Hijikata-san took a real beating.

267
00:17:26,253 --> 00:17:28,172
Hijikata did?

268
00:17:28,172 --> 00:17:29,214
They didn't beat me.

269
00:17:29,214 --> 00:17:36,180
But the Risshidan's goals, or maybe
their motives, were a bit unusual.

270
00:17:37,222 --> 00:17:39,224
Bring back the age of the samurai?

271
00:17:39,266 --> 00:17:42,227
Yes. That's what they said they wanted.

272
00:17:42,227 --> 00:17:43,228
What the hell?

273
00:17:43,228 --> 00:17:45,189
What does that even mean?

274
00:17:45,189 --> 00:17:47,191
Maybe they're out to start a war.

275
00:17:47,191 --> 00:17:50,194
That's why we should have
finished them off there and then!

276
00:17:52,196 --> 00:17:55,199
What's so bad about bringing back
the age of the samurai?

277
00:17:55,240 --> 00:17:57,159
Could we become samurai?

278
00:17:57,159 --> 00:17:59,203
Uh-oh. They're getting on board with it.

279
00:18:01,205 --> 00:18:02,247
You, too, Sir Kondo?

280
00:18:04,208 --> 00:18:07,211
A load of bull. Who could
stand an age like that?

281
00:18:08,170 --> 00:18:10,255
If they cut loose,
we'll do all we can to stop them.

282
00:18:11,215 --> 00:18:12,216
It's as simple as that.

283
00:18:13,217 --> 00:18:14,218
Yes, sir.

284
00:18:17,221 --> 00:18:19,181
And so, everyone...

285
00:18:19,223 --> 00:18:21,225
Let's make those Miburo coats.

286
00:18:21,266 --> 00:18:24,186
There's not a moment to waste.

287
00:18:26,188 --> 00:18:28,190
C-Coats?

288
00:18:28,190 --> 00:18:30,192
Who cares about that crap now?

289
00:18:30,192 --> 00:18:32,236
I do. We're gonna make them.

290
00:18:32,277 --> 00:18:36,156
A-ha. Let me guess. You fell for a girl?

291
00:18:36,240 --> 00:18:39,201
And you want to show off,
right? I've been there.

292
00:18:39,201 --> 00:18:41,161
Nothing like that.

293
00:18:41,161 --> 00:18:42,162
No?

294
00:18:42,204 --> 00:18:47,209
Last night, when I stayed in Nijo Castle,
I heard people cry, "Expel the barbarians."

295
00:18:47,209 --> 00:18:53,173
They were threatening Kikuchiyo-san...
I mean, the Shogun.

296
00:18:53,257 --> 00:18:59,179
And Naozumi-san and the rest
of the Risshidan want to start a war.

297
00:19:01,181 --> 00:19:05,185
Those two facts spell danger
for Kyoto all on their own.

298
00:19:06,186 --> 00:19:08,188
The townspeople are afraid.

299
00:19:08,230 --> 00:19:12,234
I want to show them the Miburo are here.

300
00:19:14,194 --> 00:19:16,238
We all form a single living creature.

301
00:19:17,197 --> 00:19:18,240
We don't tolerate evil deeds.

302
00:19:19,241 --> 00:19:23,203
Our uniforms will be a sign
to the people of Kyoto.

303
00:19:23,245 --> 00:19:28,208
A sign of relief. A sign of safety.
A sign they can relax.

304
00:19:29,209 --> 00:19:33,213
I think that's work
we should be doing as Miburo.

305
00:19:33,255 --> 00:19:35,257
As those who serve.

306
00:19:40,220 --> 00:19:45,184
I knew I made the right call
when I recruited him.

307
00:19:47,186 --> 00:19:52,274
So what did you want in such
a hurry for making those coats?

308
00:19:53,192 --> 00:19:55,194
What did you go check on?

309
00:19:55,235 --> 00:19:59,198
Right. This is what I wanted.

310
00:20:00,199 --> 00:20:04,244
I went to Chirinuya and
got Granny to design our coats.

311
00:20:05,204 --> 00:20:06,246
Oh! Black, huh?

312
00:20:06,246 --> 00:20:07,247
So stodgy.

313
00:20:07,247 --> 00:20:09,166
What's wrong with it?

314
00:20:09,166 --> 00:20:10,209
Black's cool.

315
00:20:10,209 --> 00:20:13,170
She said we should put
one character on the back.

316
00:20:13,212 --> 00:20:16,215
Something that symbolizes the Miburo.

317
00:20:18,217 --> 00:20:21,220
That's a good idea.
Let's pool our wits to choose one.

318
00:20:21,261 --> 00:20:22,262
Mhmm.

319
00:20:23,180 --> 00:20:27,226
Seri
Kamo
"Kamo."
"Zawa."
Zawa
Making it about you?!

320
00:20:27,267 --> 00:20:30,229
And what did you check on?

321
00:20:30,270 --> 00:20:35,192
Oh, right. I went to the drapers
to check how much it'd cost, sir.

322
00:20:36,235 --> 00:20:38,195
Five ryo a coat.

323
00:20:38,237 --> 00:20:43,242
Planning ahead for more recruits,
50 coats comes to 250 ryo.

324
00:20:46,245 --> 00:20:48,247
Wait, 250 ryo?!

325
00:20:49,164 --> 00:20:52,251
Come on, everybody.
It's time to start earning.

326
00:20:53,210 --> 00:20:54,211
Let's get going!

327
00:20:55,170 --> 00:20:57,256
Come on! All together now!

328
00:20:59,258 --> 00:21:01,218
Are you nuts?! Where will we get that much?!

329
00:21:01,218 --> 00:21:03,220
From hard work! Together!

330
00:21:03,220 --> 00:21:04,263
He's not listening.

331
00:21:04,263 --> 00:21:06,223
Damn it. I guess we've got no choice.

332
00:21:06,223 --> 00:21:09,184
Listen to us, Nio.

333
00:21:09,226 --> 00:21:11,186
I know, Kondo-san.

334
00:21:12,187 --> 00:21:14,231
Nio doesn't realize how
frightening uniformity can be.

335
00:21:15,190 --> 00:21:18,193
It intimidates people
on top of everything else.
There's no way! We'll never make 250 ryo!

336
00:21:18,193 --> 00:21:20,195
Do you realize how much
we'd each have to earn?!
No, let him be.

337
00:21:20,237 --> 00:21:26,243
Wait, how much would it be?
Our actions will show the townspeople
that we're on their side.
Besides...

338
00:21:28,203 --> 00:21:30,247
Yeah, you're right.

339
00:21:31,206 --> 00:21:34,209
Maybe that's our work as adults.

340
00:21:35,252 --> 00:21:40,257
Sharing

341
00:23:11,181 --> 00:23:19,189
Next time
Chirinu Nio here.
We Miburo need to raise funds.

342
00:23:20,190 --> 00:23:25,195
Funds to buy matching coats, so we can help
the townsfolk to breathe more easily.

343
00:23:26,196 --> 00:23:29,241
But it seems like everyone's
running into trouble.

344
00:23:31,243 --> 00:23:34,204
Making money sure is tough.

345
00:23:35,205 --> 00:23:37,207
Next time: "The Race to Raise Money."

346
00:23:38,166 --> 00:23:40,252
The
Race
