﻿1
00:00:00,000 --> 00:00:04,045
Well, well. Long time no see.

2
00:00:04,045 --> 00:00:08,008
So? Since you came to me,
I'm guessing you want money?

3
00:00:10,010 --> 00:00:12,971
Who will you kill, Jiro?

4
00:00:13,054 --> 00:00:17,976
Or is it Saito Hajime II now?

5
00:00:19,978 --> 00:00:23,982
How does it feel to be called that name?

6
00:00:24,024 --> 00:00:27,027
Nothing special. I gave up
my old one long ago.

7
00:00:27,068 --> 00:00:28,987
It means nothing to me.

8
00:00:28,987 --> 00:00:30,030
Oh, really?

9
00:00:30,989 --> 00:00:33,033
I don't believe that for a minute.

10
00:00:33,074 --> 00:00:37,954
A name is the first thing
parents give their child.

11
00:00:39,039 --> 00:00:41,958
You're awful chatty for a snake.

12
00:00:41,958 --> 00:00:44,002
Temper, temper.

13
00:00:44,002 --> 00:00:47,047
Your patience is a far cry
from your namesake's.

14
00:00:48,048 --> 00:00:51,051
The surliness hasn't changed, though.

15
00:00:51,051 --> 00:00:53,970
You must have gotten that from him.

16
00:00:57,057 --> 00:00:59,059
You want to talk work?

17
00:01:04,064 --> 00:01:13,073
5 ryo
Hook 10 ryo.
Red 5 ryo.
The 20 ryo.
The Lady 30 ryo.

18
00:01:13,073 --> 00:01:16,076
100 ryo.
100 ryo

19
00:01:17,035 --> 00:01:19,996
Can I assume the reward
matches how well they fight?

20
00:01:20,038 --> 00:01:21,956
Who knows?

21
00:01:21,956 --> 00:01:25,043
Could be the strength of the target.
Could be the depth of the grudge.

22
00:01:25,043 --> 00:01:28,004
The client sets the rate.

23
00:01:28,963 --> 00:01:33,009
Still, 100 ryo? That's something special.

24
00:01:33,051 --> 00:01:36,054
Now, take your pick, successor.

25
00:01:37,013 --> 00:01:39,015
Who will you kill?

26
00:01:59,035 --> 00:02:03,998
Blue Miburo

27
00:03:20,074 --> 00:03:23,077
Any work welcome

28
00:03:27,040 --> 00:03:29,042
We're sure not finding any jobs, huh?

29
00:03:29,042 --> 00:03:32,962
Damn it. Why don't we just rob somebody?

30
00:03:34,047 --> 00:03:36,049
Huh? I know you, boy.

31
00:03:40,011 --> 00:03:41,012
Funazo-san.

32
00:03:41,054 --> 00:03:43,056
It's me, Nio. It's been a long time.

33
00:03:44,015 --> 00:03:45,975
I owe you for back then.

34
00:03:46,017 --> 00:03:48,061
My daughter and I are getting by now.

35
00:03:48,978 --> 00:03:50,021
I'm glad to hear it.

36
00:03:50,063 --> 00:03:51,981
Wh-Who's this?

37
00:03:51,981 --> 00:03:53,024
You know this guy?

38
00:03:53,024 --> 00:03:55,026
Any work welcome
Yup.
Huh...

39
00:03:55,985 --> 00:03:58,029
Are you looking for work, young Nio?

40
00:03:58,947 --> 00:04:00,031
I know just the thing.

41
00:04:00,031 --> 00:04:01,991
What? Really?

42
00:04:12,043 --> 00:04:16,005
F-Funazo-san, is this your new bride?

43
00:04:16,005 --> 00:04:19,050
P-Perish the thought.
She's merely an acquaintance.

44
00:04:20,009 --> 00:04:21,010
Forgive me.

45
00:04:22,053 --> 00:04:23,054
I'm Nio.

46
00:04:24,013 --> 00:04:27,016
This is Nagi-san, the lady
of a proper samurai house.

47
00:04:29,018 --> 00:04:30,061
What are you clapping for?

48
00:04:31,020 --> 00:04:32,063
I see you're with child.

49
00:04:32,105 --> 00:04:34,065
When is the baby due?

50
00:04:34,065 --> 00:04:37,026
I don't know, but it can't be long now.

51
00:04:37,026 --> 00:04:38,069
Don't you care?

52
00:04:38,069 --> 00:04:41,030
Nagi-san wants to take a boat downriver.

53
00:04:41,030 --> 00:04:44,033
I'll give you some pocket money
if you'll help me take her.

54
00:04:44,075 --> 00:04:46,035
We'd love to help.

55
00:04:46,077 --> 00:04:48,079
Don't make us work for cheap!

56
00:04:53,001 --> 00:04:54,085
Please watch your step.

57
00:04:54,085 --> 00:04:55,086
Right.

58
00:04:55,086 --> 00:04:58,089
So why do you want to go downriver?

59
00:04:59,007 --> 00:05:00,008
That's my secret.

60
00:05:00,049 --> 00:05:02,051
Forgive me. I didn't mean to pry.

61
00:05:04,012 --> 00:05:05,054
L-Like this?

62
00:05:05,096 --> 00:05:07,056
You've got a knack for it, young Taro.

63
00:05:08,016 --> 00:05:09,017
Yes, praise me more.

64
00:05:09,100 --> 00:05:10,101
Step right this way.

65
00:05:10,101 --> 00:05:11,060
Okay.

66
00:05:14,022 --> 00:05:16,024
Nagi-san, that's the river!

67
00:05:16,024 --> 00:05:17,108
This way! Over here!

68
00:05:18,026 --> 00:05:19,986
That gave me a fright.

69
00:05:19,986 --> 00:05:21,112
You took the words out of my mouth!

70
00:05:21,112 --> 00:05:23,072
P-Please try to be careful!

71
00:05:23,072 --> 00:05:25,074
H-Hey, Nio. C'mere a sec.

72
00:05:25,074 --> 00:05:26,034
What is it?

73
00:05:26,034 --> 00:05:30,997
You've got to watch your step, Nagi-san.
This lady's fishy.
Yes, of course.
Y-You think so?

74
00:05:31,039 --> 00:05:34,042
What pregnant woman wants to go downriver?

75
00:05:34,083 --> 00:05:37,045
Are you sure she's not
planning to drown herself?

76
00:05:37,045 --> 00:05:39,047
Drown herself? Surely not.

77
00:05:44,010 --> 00:05:46,012
What a cool breeze.

78
00:05:46,012 --> 00:05:47,055
It feels lovely.

79
00:05:47,055 --> 00:05:49,015
I-It sure does.

80
00:05:49,015 --> 00:05:52,018
Look, the water's sparkling.

81
00:05:52,018 --> 00:05:54,020
I feel like it could s*** me in.
Please don't!

82
00:05:57,023 --> 00:05:58,066
There's a boat coming the other way!

83
00:05:58,107 --> 00:06:00,026
We're fine. Stay on course.

84
00:06:00,068 --> 00:06:02,028
It's going to get a little bumpy.

85
00:06:07,992 --> 00:06:09,077
P-Please hold on tight.

86
00:06:10,036 --> 00:06:11,037
Hold on?

87
00:06:12,038 --> 00:06:15,041
T-To the boat. Like this.

88
00:06:15,041 --> 00:06:17,960
Oh, to the boat?

89
00:06:19,003 --> 00:06:21,005
I might as well just ask her.

90
00:06:22,006 --> 00:06:23,966
E-Excuse me, Nagi-san...

91
00:06:24,967 --> 00:06:28,971
If something's troubling you,
I'd be happy to listen.

92
00:06:28,971 --> 00:06:29,972
Troubling me?

93
00:06:30,056 --> 00:06:31,974
Let me see...

94
00:06:31,974 --> 00:06:34,018
I have so many worries,
it's hard to pick just one.

95
00:06:35,019 --> 00:06:40,024
W-Well, you have a baby on the way,
so please don't do anything rash.

96
00:06:40,024 --> 00:06:44,028
When I was little,
everyone called me "Ollow."

97
00:06:44,987 --> 00:06:46,989
I asked them, "What's that mean?"

98
00:06:47,031 --> 00:06:50,993
They said, "You're always in such a daze,
your head must be hollow."

99
00:06:51,994 --> 00:06:54,038
I thought that was a good one.

100
00:06:54,956 --> 00:06:57,041
"Hollow"? As in "empty"?

101
00:06:59,001 --> 00:06:59,961
A bridge!

102
00:07:01,003 --> 00:07:03,005
Isn't the river nice?

103
00:07:11,013 --> 00:07:12,014
Does it bother you?

104
00:07:12,974 --> 00:07:14,976
No, not a bit.

105
00:07:14,976 --> 00:07:16,978
Huh? Really?

106
00:07:16,978 --> 00:07:19,981
I lost my parents when I was young.

107
00:07:19,981 --> 00:07:22,024
I just happened to meet a good man.

108
00:07:22,024 --> 00:07:26,988
My family weren't samurai,
and I'm so clumsy, I'm always a burden.

109
00:07:28,990 --> 00:07:30,032
But that makes me think.

110
00:07:30,992 --> 00:07:31,951
Look.

111
00:07:32,952 --> 00:07:33,995
A crescent moon?

112
00:07:34,996 --> 00:07:36,998
Gorgeous, isn't it?

113
00:07:37,957 --> 00:07:42,044
Isn't it funny how everything
beautiful is missing something?

114
00:07:44,046 --> 00:07:46,966
Maybe the same goes for us.

115
00:07:48,009 --> 00:07:49,051
Like this river.

116
00:07:49,969 --> 00:07:54,974
Even if it gets weak or rough
or takes an unexpected turn,

117
00:07:54,974 --> 00:07:56,017
or if it gets silty sometimes,

118
00:07:56,976 --> 00:08:01,022
we have to show respect,
deference, and humility.

119
00:08:03,983 --> 00:08:07,028
And live gracefully as the current takes us.

120
00:08:11,032 --> 00:08:14,994
Um, aren't you scared to give birth?

121
00:08:15,036 --> 00:08:16,954
It seems like it must hurt.

122
00:08:16,954 --> 00:08:18,956
Of course I'm scared.

123
00:08:18,956 --> 00:08:20,958
But I'm in no rush.

124
00:08:20,958 --> 00:08:21,959
No rush?

125
00:08:22,001 --> 00:08:26,005
Well, tomorrow's me
will figure something out.

126
00:08:29,008 --> 00:08:31,010
Huh? Is that funny?

127
00:08:31,010 --> 00:08:32,970
Did I say something funny?

128
00:08:33,012 --> 00:08:36,974
This person is strong. I guess
this is another kind of strength.

129
00:08:37,975 --> 00:08:38,976
Hey!

130
00:08:39,018 --> 00:08:40,978
Nagi-san!

131
00:08:41,020 --> 00:08:42,980
I finally found you!

132
00:08:43,981 --> 00:08:44,982
My husband.

133
00:08:48,027 --> 00:08:52,031
Sorry, Funazo-san. My wife made some
more unreasonable demands, didn't she?

134
00:08:52,031 --> 00:08:53,032
Not at all.

135
00:08:53,032 --> 00:08:56,035
"Unreasonable demands"? I would never.

136
00:08:56,035 --> 00:08:58,996
These boys were good enough to help.

137
00:08:58,996 --> 00:08:59,997
Oh, I see.

138
00:08:59,997 --> 00:09:00,957
I'm Nio.

139
00:09:00,957 --> 00:09:01,999
A-And I'm Taro.

140
00:09:02,041 --> 00:09:04,001
I really appreciate it.

141
00:09:04,961 --> 00:09:09,006
I'm Yotaro, and I run a dojo on
the other side of Sanjo-oohashi.

142
00:09:09,048 --> 00:09:12,051
Please stop by if you're
ever in the neighborhood.

143
00:09:12,969 --> 00:09:13,970
We'd love to.

144
00:09:14,971 --> 00:09:16,055
Let's head home before it gets dark.

145
00:09:16,055 --> 00:09:17,014
Okay.

146
00:09:21,018 --> 00:09:23,980
How can I learn to be strong like you?

147
00:09:27,024 --> 00:09:30,027
You're plenty strong already.

148
00:09:31,988 --> 00:09:34,073
Oh, dear. I still need to buy tofu.

149
00:09:39,287 --> 00:09:41,289
You don't look even a little tough.

150
00:09:42,290 --> 00:09:43,332
Whoa. Watch it.

151
00:09:43,332 --> 00:09:45,293
Taro-kun, let's get strong.

152
00:09:45,293 --> 00:09:48,254
What? No, stop. We're supposed
to be making money.

153
00:09:48,296 --> 00:09:51,299
I don't understand,
but that's what makes me think.

154
00:09:53,259 --> 00:09:55,303
Taro-kun, let's make money the strong way.

155
00:09:55,303 --> 00:09:56,345
What even is the strong way?

156
00:09:57,305 --> 00:09:59,265
So that I can keep getting closer.

157
00:09:59,348 --> 00:10:00,308
Funazo-san!

158
00:10:01,267 --> 00:10:02,351
I'll help you take your boat back.

159
00:10:03,269 --> 00:10:05,271
Will you help me hawk fish?

160
00:10:05,271 --> 00:10:06,314
Not for nothing.

161
00:10:07,273 --> 00:10:08,274
Now you're talking.

162
00:10:09,275 --> 00:10:10,318
He is strong.

163
00:10:14,322 --> 00:10:18,326
I can't believe we walked
all over town hawking fish.

164
00:10:18,326 --> 00:10:20,328
But we made Funazo-san happy.

165
00:10:20,328 --> 00:10:22,288
Oh! Hey!

166
00:10:22,330 --> 00:10:23,331
Hey, Nio!

167
00:10:24,290 --> 00:10:25,291
Guys!

168
00:10:27,293 --> 00:10:28,294
You're late.

169
00:10:28,294 --> 00:10:31,255
Hajime-kun. You beat us home.

170
00:10:33,299 --> 00:10:36,260
You smell funny.
And you're all beat up, too.

171
00:10:36,260 --> 00:10:37,345
Shut up, monkey brains.

172
00:10:38,262 --> 00:10:39,263
I'm back.

173
00:10:41,349 --> 00:10:43,309
He's beat up even worse than you!

174
00:10:46,270 --> 00:10:49,273
I have returned.

175
00:10:49,315 --> 00:10:50,274
And drunk.

176
00:10:50,316 --> 00:10:52,318
Did you make a lot of money?

177
00:10:52,318 --> 00:10:55,279
What a foolish question!

178
00:10:56,322 --> 00:10:58,324
Good thing we've got adults we can count on!

179
00:11:02,244 --> 00:11:03,329
All done.

180
00:11:04,288 --> 00:11:06,248
We're all done gathering funds.

181
00:11:08,292 --> 00:11:09,293
I see we're all here.

182
00:11:09,335 --> 00:11:11,295
Let's count up our earnings.

183
00:11:11,337 --> 00:11:14,256
How much do we need
to have those coats made?

184
00:11:14,298 --> 00:11:15,257
Nio!

185
00:11:15,299 --> 00:11:17,259
We need 250 ryo, sir.

186
00:11:17,259 --> 00:11:19,303
Now, put your earnings in the bowl!

187
00:11:20,304 --> 00:11:21,305
Yeah!

188
00:11:21,305 --> 00:11:22,264
At last.

189
00:11:22,264 --> 00:11:23,265
Leave it to me.

190
00:11:23,265 --> 00:11:24,266
And me.

191
00:11:24,266 --> 00:11:25,267
Count me in!

192
00:11:25,309 --> 00:11:26,310
All right! Good work, men!

193
00:11:26,310 --> 00:11:27,311
Whoa!

194
00:11:27,311 --> 00:11:28,354
Keep it coming!

195
00:11:28,354 --> 00:11:30,272
All done.

196
00:11:30,272 --> 00:11:33,275
So how much did we make?

197
00:11:41,283 --> 00:11:42,284
Eight mon?

198
00:11:43,244 --> 00:11:44,328
Are you kidding me?!

199
00:11:44,328 --> 00:11:47,248
You'd better not be holding out on us!

200
00:11:47,248 --> 00:11:48,290
Same to you!

201
00:11:48,332 --> 00:11:51,252
Okay, who put in these mon coins?

202
00:11:51,293 --> 00:11:53,295
Me and Taro-kun.

203
00:11:53,295 --> 00:11:55,256
We helped sell fish.

204
00:11:55,297 --> 00:11:57,341
I'm sorry it's only a drop in the bucket.

205
00:11:57,341 --> 00:11:59,343
D-Don't apologize, Nio.

206
00:11:59,343 --> 00:12:01,303
What were you guys doing?

207
00:12:01,303 --> 00:12:03,305
We lost everything gambling!

208
00:12:03,305 --> 00:12:06,267
We pawned our swords
and can't get them back.

209
00:12:06,267 --> 00:12:08,269
We are samurai no more.

210
00:12:08,269 --> 00:12:09,311
You reap what you sow.

211
00:12:10,271 --> 00:12:11,272
What about you two?

212
00:12:11,272 --> 00:12:15,276
We worked as bodyguards,
secretly following this real cutie around.

213
00:12:15,359 --> 00:12:18,279
She turned out to come from a good family.

214
00:12:18,320 --> 00:12:21,323
Her father insisted we accept
a token of his gratitude.

215
00:12:21,323 --> 00:12:23,325
What? That's amazing.

216
00:12:23,325 --> 00:12:25,286
This fine erotic print.

217
00:12:25,286 --> 00:12:26,287
Wow.

218
00:12:26,287 --> 00:12:27,288
Why?

219
00:12:27,329 --> 00:12:28,330
And you, Kondo-san?

220
00:12:30,291 --> 00:12:33,294
To my great shame, I failed to catch a cat.

221
00:12:33,294 --> 00:12:35,296
Some help you are!

222
00:12:35,296 --> 00:12:37,298
I helped out in the fields.

223
00:12:37,298 --> 00:12:38,340
Oh, Gen-san.

224
00:12:38,340 --> 00:12:41,302
Words of thanks were my reward.

225
00:12:41,302 --> 00:12:42,303
Get money next time!

226
00:12:42,344 --> 00:12:44,305
A-And your group, Serizawa-san?

227
00:12:44,305 --> 00:12:48,309
We challenged dojos!
Naturally, we won every bout.

228
00:12:48,309 --> 00:12:51,270
Making money couldn't be simpler.

229
00:12:51,312 --> 00:12:54,356
They paid us to return their signboards.

230
00:12:55,274 --> 00:12:58,319
That put us in a grand mood.

231
00:12:58,319 --> 00:13:01,238
So grand that we spent it all drinking.

232
00:13:02,323 --> 00:13:04,283
Wh-What are we going to do?

233
00:13:04,283 --> 00:13:07,244
We'll never make any money like this!

234
00:13:11,290 --> 00:13:12,249
There's 10 ryo.

235
00:13:12,291 --> 00:13:14,293
What?! Did you say 10 ryo?!

236
00:13:14,293 --> 00:13:15,336
Whoa.

237
00:13:15,336 --> 00:13:18,255
I bet you won it gambling, you lucky devil.

238
00:13:18,255 --> 00:13:19,340
Don't lump me in with you.

239
00:13:20,299 --> 00:13:22,301
I knew I smelled blood on you.

240
00:13:22,301 --> 00:13:23,302
Shut up.

241
00:13:31,268 --> 00:13:33,270
This still isn't nearly enough.

242
00:13:33,354 --> 00:13:36,357
Only the children turned a profit.

243
00:13:36,357 --> 00:13:38,234
We'll never...

244
00:13:38,234 --> 00:13:39,318
...get those coats made.

245
00:13:40,277 --> 00:13:41,278
No.

246
00:13:42,279 --> 00:13:45,282
We borrowed the full
250 ryo from the Aizu Domain.

247
00:13:45,282 --> 00:13:48,244
Yamanami-san! Niimi-san!

248
00:13:51,288 --> 00:13:52,289
Which means...

249
00:13:55,292 --> 00:13:57,336
We can make the coats!

250
00:14:00,297 --> 00:14:01,298
Always a step ahead.

251
00:14:02,341 --> 00:14:05,261
It's a loan with no interest or due date.

252
00:14:05,302 --> 00:14:08,264
It seems the Shogun's influence
worked in our favor.

253
00:14:09,348 --> 00:14:11,308
I see. Then we owe Nio.

254
00:14:12,226 --> 00:14:15,354
Still, I liked that old man
we met at the gambling hall.

255
00:14:15,354 --> 00:14:17,314
He even bought us a drink.

256
00:14:17,314 --> 00:14:20,317
Yes, he was quite an agreeable fellow.

257
00:14:20,317 --> 00:14:22,319
I hope our paths cross again.

258
00:14:29,326 --> 00:14:32,288
In any case, elder, have a seat.

259
00:14:32,329 --> 00:14:34,331
No. Tonight, we celebrate our rising.

260
00:14:35,249 --> 00:14:38,252
I ought to wait till we've all assembled.

261
00:14:38,294 --> 00:14:40,337
I'm sure the others will be late.

262
00:14:41,255 --> 00:14:42,298
Let's start without them.

263
00:14:44,258 --> 00:14:47,303
Make merry. We'll drink this night away.

264
00:14:47,303 --> 00:14:49,263
Well, we're already drinking.

265
00:14:49,263 --> 00:14:52,308
What do you say we wash down
the w*** with words?

266
00:14:56,312 --> 00:15:00,274
We, the Blood Risshidan,
have our target: the Miburo.

267
00:15:01,275 --> 00:15:02,276
Oh?

268
00:15:02,318 --> 00:15:05,237
Listen, I've got an idea.

269
00:15:05,237 --> 00:15:06,280
Here's the plan.

270
00:15:07,323 --> 00:15:08,282
Who's there?

271
00:15:12,328 --> 00:15:15,247
Naozumi-niisan, it's me, Nagi.

272
00:15:15,247 --> 00:15:16,290
Oh, Nagi.

273
00:15:16,290 --> 00:15:20,294
You may have married my brother,
but that's no excuse for eavesdropping.

274
00:15:20,294 --> 00:15:23,339
I bought some fine tofu.
Don't you like tofu?

275
00:15:25,257 --> 00:15:27,259
N-Now's not the time!

276
00:15:27,259 --> 00:15:28,260
My.

277
00:15:29,261 --> 00:15:31,263
Women don't belong near the dojo.

278
00:15:31,305 --> 00:15:33,265
Yes, yes.

279
00:15:35,309 --> 00:15:36,352
What to do?

280
00:15:36,352 --> 00:15:38,270
Nagi-san.

281
00:15:39,271 --> 00:15:41,315
You shouldn't slip out of bed like that.

282
00:15:41,357 --> 00:15:43,317
It's bad for the baby.

283
00:15:44,276 --> 00:15:45,319
Yotaro-san.

284
00:15:46,236 --> 00:15:48,322
Uh, your brother and
his friends are in the dojo—

285
00:15:48,322 --> 00:15:52,284
Don't worry. You can leave them to me.

286
00:16:03,295 --> 00:16:04,296
How was it?

287
00:16:04,296 --> 00:16:06,256
Don't move, Nagi-san.

288
00:16:06,256 --> 00:16:08,258
It's over. Everything's fine now.

289
00:16:08,258 --> 00:16:09,301
Is it really?

290
00:16:09,301 --> 00:16:11,345
Yeah. Let's turn in. It's getting late.

291
00:16:18,435 --> 00:16:20,521
Yes, good. Shout nice and loud.

292
00:16:26,485 --> 00:16:28,529
Nishimura-san, did you hurt your wrist?

293
00:16:30,489 --> 00:16:33,492
Did you get in a fight?
You need to stop that.

294
00:16:33,492 --> 00:16:37,496
You're a strong man. If you draw
your sword in the heat of the moment—

295
00:16:39,540 --> 00:16:43,460
D-Did I offend you? I'm sorry.

296
00:16:49,508 --> 00:16:51,510
I certainly have a hard road ahead.

297
00:16:53,554 --> 00:16:57,516
We'll make this city
of Kyoto our battlefield.

298
00:16:59,476 --> 00:17:03,480
That leaves one problem:
how to talk Yotaro around.

299
00:17:08,527 --> 00:17:11,488
Mother, please protect me.

300
00:17:12,448 --> 00:17:13,490
M-Mistress!

301
00:17:17,494 --> 00:17:20,456
I thought I'd find you here on her deathday.

302
00:17:21,457 --> 00:17:23,500
What has you so flustered?

303
00:17:23,542 --> 00:17:27,504
The night before last, a man
caused trouble near Nijo Castle,

304
00:17:27,546 --> 00:17:30,466
then bit through his tongue and died.

305
00:17:30,466 --> 00:17:32,509
The magistrate wants to know
if he was one of our students.

306
00:17:37,556 --> 00:17:40,476
M-Mistress! You shouldn't run!

307
00:17:47,483 --> 00:17:49,526
Our target: the Miburo.

308
00:17:50,444 --> 00:17:51,487
What are the "Miburo"?

309
00:17:53,489 --> 00:17:56,450
Nagi-san, look after this place.

310
00:17:59,453 --> 00:18:01,497
I know something's about to happen.

311
00:18:02,456 --> 00:18:03,540
Something dreadful.

312
00:18:06,502 --> 00:18:09,463
E-Excuse me. Let me see.

313
00:18:09,505 --> 00:18:12,466
Thank you for yesterday, Yotaro-san.

314
00:18:13,467 --> 00:18:14,551
It's so good to see you.

315
00:18:15,469 --> 00:18:17,471
Thank you for coming, Nio-kun.

316
00:18:17,471 --> 00:18:19,473
Is Nagi-san inside?

317
00:18:19,515 --> 00:18:23,477
She's probably visiting the graveyard today,
but I think she'll be home soon.

318
00:18:25,521 --> 00:18:28,440
He assisted my wife yesterday.

319
00:18:28,482 --> 00:18:30,526
Did he? I'm glad to hear it.

320
00:18:30,526 --> 00:18:32,528
Sorry for dropping in so suddenly.

321
00:18:33,445 --> 00:18:36,490
You see, we borrowed money
from Aizu at the Konkai-Komyoji Temple,

322
00:18:36,490 --> 00:18:38,492
and are on our way back
from thanking them.

323
00:18:38,492 --> 00:18:41,495
Oh, so you're men of Aizu?

324
00:18:41,495 --> 00:18:43,497
Oh, no, we're not.

325
00:18:43,497 --> 00:18:45,457
We're Miburo.

326
00:18:46,500 --> 00:18:47,459
Miburo?

327
00:18:48,460 --> 00:18:50,546
Still, it's always nice to be in a dojo.

328
00:18:51,505 --> 00:18:52,506
You like dojos?

329
00:18:52,506 --> 00:18:53,465
Yes.

330
00:18:54,466 --> 00:19:00,514
I should've introduced myself. I'm Kyohachi
Yotaro, head of the Kyohachi School here.

331
00:19:00,514 --> 00:19:02,516
You run a dojo at your age?

332
00:19:02,516 --> 00:19:03,517
I'm 29.

333
00:19:03,517 --> 00:19:04,518
So am I.

334
00:19:05,477 --> 00:19:07,479
I have my own dojo in Edo.

335
00:19:07,479 --> 00:19:08,522
Really? You do?

336
00:19:08,522 --> 00:19:10,482
Would you care to spar?

337
00:19:10,524 --> 00:19:12,526
That's a great idea.
I'd love to learn from you.

338
00:19:13,485 --> 00:19:16,530
Naozumi, I know Yotaro's
your little brother,

339
00:19:16,530 --> 00:19:19,533
but you don't need to put him
at the head of the Risshidan.

340
00:19:20,492 --> 00:19:24,496
He can't be honest with you or his wife.
Not even his students respect him.

341
00:19:27,499 --> 00:19:29,459
No, we need him.

342
00:19:29,459 --> 00:19:31,503
You don't know the real Yotaro.

343
00:19:32,462 --> 00:19:36,466
He's the only man fit to lead the Risshidan.
He's a paragon of the sword.

344
00:19:37,467 --> 00:19:40,512
He's a true martial god.
No one could ever defeat him.

345
00:19:41,513 --> 00:19:44,474
And what if he loses?

346
00:19:46,518 --> 00:19:48,520
If someone can pull that off,

347
00:19:49,521 --> 00:19:52,441
he'll be more than any of us can handle.

348
00:20:03,452 --> 00:20:08,457
Like

349
00:21:38,463 --> 00:21:44,469
Next time
It is I, Kondo Isami.

350
00:21:44,511 --> 00:21:48,557
I always like a dojo, and I like to match
blades with skilled opponents even more.

351
00:21:49,516 --> 00:21:55,522
For my Shieikan in Edo,
and for the Miburo, I must master the way.

352
00:21:56,523 --> 00:22:00,485
I shall hone my techniques,
strengthen my body, and temper my spirit.

353
00:22:01,486 --> 00:22:02,529
Next time: "To Battle."

354
00:22:03,488 --> 00:22:04,489
It is not to be missed.

355
00:22:05,449 --> 00:22:08,452
To Battle
