NINJA WARS

Why do men fight?

Why do they kill each other?

They keep on killing, even while they speak of peace.

Why?

And so it was, in the midst of the Warring States Period.

Many books written during that time

mention the name of Kashin, a sorcerer...

who could take on many different forms

and even bring the dead back to life.

Who, or what, was he?

Even now, it remains a mystery.

How beautiful.

So you like it, Lady Ulkyo? Oh, I am so glad to hear it.

It cost me a lot of money, but now I feel it is well worth it.

My, aren't you clever.

Of course not. I meant it in all sincerity.

Danjo. My wife is not used to flattery or frivolous banter.

Please refrain from such talk.

Oh. I'm afraid I was so dazzled by her beauty

that I forgot my manners.

Please excuse my rudeness.

Well, now,

Lord Danjo.

I believe preparations for the tea ceremony are about completed.

I'm well aware of that.

Observe...

This tea is the product of both a great tea instructor and a great teapot.

It is indeed delicious.

Using the spider teapot for Lord Danjo is like casting pearls before swine!

I had no choice.

He insisted on it, to celebrate the occasion.

He's like a filthy beast.

He kept staring at her with eyes full of lust.

What do you mean, "lust"?

What's going on, Shinzaemon?

Don't move.

What is it?

Who are you?

Very impressive, Shinzaemon of Yagyu.

You noticed my presence right away, didn't you, Shinzaemon?

Who are you?

Kashin, the Sorceror.

Kashin?

Kashin the Sorcerer.

Danjo.

I came to grant your heart's desire.

What?

I speak of Lady Ulkyo.

Whoever wins her heart...

will conquer heaven and earth.

This is my prophecy.

Can it really be true?

- Is it true? - Don't listen to him, Lord Danjo!

This man is evil.

Stop!

Do as I say.

Do you want a massacre in your village?

- But, Lord Danjo... - Enough!

If you do this, the blood of the Yagyu family will surely be flowing tonight.

The tea ceremony is over. Now take your leave, Shinzaemon.

Danjo.

He's gone.

Now, tell me.

How can I get Lady Ulkyo

and rule the nation?

Just believe in my powers.

What?

And Rasetsu.

Who is that?

A ninja.

A ninja?

The question is, who sent him?

Such graceful movement.

As if he weren't human.

Oh, he is human, indeed.

By the way, Danjo...

Including Rasetsu...

I have five men. They can act as your retainers.

Now, Danjo.

You must capture Lady Ulkyo's heart

and take control of the country.

You will use a love potion.

A love potion!

A love potion?

And how, you ask?

In due time, it will be revealed.

Kashin!

I did it.

Kagaribi.

You've mastered it.

The skill of the sickle moon.

Thanks to you, Jotaro.

You're a full-fledged ninja now. You can fight on your own.

No.

We're a team. We fight together.

Kagaribi. You're no longer a child.

I'll take on any enemy, as long as you're with me.

Hey!

Kagaribi!

Hey, you.

Kagaribi.

Kagaribi.

Marriages are decided by the head ninja.

That's the rule.

I know.

But I've made up my mind.

I'm going to tell him.

My wife...

has to be Kagaribi, and no one else.

Jotaro.

Kagaribi.

Why do you attack me?

Who are you?

What do you want with us?

We're not after you, Jotaro.

We want the girl.

What?

Go tell our leader. These scoundrels are dangerous.

But...

Hurry, Kagaribi!

Go, now!

Hurry.

Jotaro.

Get out of here!

Observe, the great Suiju strikes again!

What happened?

He's dead.

This is Kashin's doing.

He's a ninja!

He's quite good at playing dead.

She...

is the spitting image of Lady Ulkyo.

She's identical. I'll have her!

She's mine!

But of course. She's yours.

But only after we take the essence of the love potion from her.

- Right? - What?

She's qualified.

She's pure, a virgin.

And she's related to Lady Ulkyo.

When she's taken by us, she will cry a torrent of tears.

Those tears are the main ingredient for the love potion.

Wait. You said she's related to Lady Ulkyo?

She's her twin sister, the younger one.

Twins?

Their father is the Shogun, their mother a common housewife.

Lady Ulkyo, the older one, was adopted by a courtier.

This one was abandoned.

I see.

OK then.

If it will make Lady Ulkyo love me,

I'll try anything.

Hurry up and make the love potion!

Hold on, not so fast.

There are also ten types of herbs that are needed for the potion.

Combine them with her tears,

and boil everything for two hours.

You'll need a good pot for this.

Yes, for this,

the famed "Spider pot" is the one.

Jotaro.

Jotaro, where are you?

He's dead.

You're lying!

Are you sad? Cry, then!

Rail against the heavens!

People fall in love and trust each other,

and that's where the trouble starts.

Go ahead, curse your fate!

Go mad!

And then...

we'll make a woman out of you.

Amazing.

What?

What's this?

What do you think you're doing?

Isaribi!

What is this? Are you insane?

Get out of our way.

Kill them!

Kill all those crazy beasts!

Do you want to kill me, too?

Stop, Stop!

You're alive?

It's incredible.

And,

why are you wearing Isaribi's kimono?

Isaribi.

Isaribi. Did you come back to life, too?

But your head, it's...

Oh, my mistake. I put it on backwards.

You swapped their heads?

I'm afraid their blood didn't blend well, so she went insane.

- Their blood... didn't mix? - Right.

But...

The face is Isaribi's, but the body is still that of the pure virgin.

Kagaribi's heart still resides here.

But... then who is she?

And who is this one?

Please, my Lord.

Be sweet to me.

Love me, for I have the face of Lady Ulkyo.

Come to me now.

I suggest we call this one "Onibi." What do you think?

Kagaribi.

Kagaribi.

Come on, cry!

Cry and cry, till you're out of tears!

We want your tears!

Now, after boiling her tears with the ten herbs,

we have the resulting love potion.

Let's see how it works.

Upon drinking it, she'll fall in love with the first man she sees.

Is this what will happen?

Will Lady Ulkyo be like this with me?

Yes, and even more so.

Let's be alone together.

Kagaribi.

Jotaro.

You're alive.

I'm so glad.

Who are you?

Jotaro.

Kagaribi is dead.

What?

Is it true?

She's dead.

Don't touch me!

Kagaribi was raped.

Raped?

Where did you get that cross?

Jotaro.

Jotaro.

Kagaribi's no longer with you.

She can't be with you.

I'll take on any enemy, as long as you're with me.

Kagaribi.

What happened?

What happened to Kagaribi?

Hagun, track down her scent!

We thought she was crazy, but she managed to escape.

Danjo Matsunaga and five magicians?

They did this to you?

They made you suffer like this?

For the sake of getting this Lady Ulkyo, your twin,

to make her fall in love with him,

just for that stupid purpose, they did this thing?

Jotaro.

I can't die yet.

Not like this.

Kagaribi.

I will surely avenge you!

I'll kill Danjo and those five evil magicians.

And I'll protect your sister from them.

Jotaro.

Kagaribi.

Jotaro.

Take this. Think of it as my soul.

Kagaribi.

Jotaro.

Jotaro.

Don't trust... the girl with... the face of Kagaribi.

Kagaribi.

Can't you smell anything?

He scattered pepper to throw us off the scent.

But he's carrying the wounded girl.

I pray that the evildoers will be vanquished by our love!

Kagaribi. I got one!

But how?

How can you be alive?

Well, I'm afraid we can't be killed.

Now, give back the pot!

RESIDENCE OF HANZO HATTORI

Master!

Master!

- Kagaribi's... - Silence.

Jotaro.

Who said you could marry Kagaribi?

You broke the rules.

If you insist on fighting the magicians,

you'll have to break your association with us.

Master.

Thank you for everything you have done for me.

Leave the pot here.

It will bring you nothing but trouble.

I can't.

Kagaribi was killed because of this.

And it's proof of Danjo's evil ways.

Let him be!

Have you lost your senses, Jotaro?

I hear Hanzo Hattori got rid of that ninja.

Hanzo, you wily devil.

You cut off his tail and let him escape.

Yes, indeed.

But I've got four men looking for him, so it's just a matter of time.

Lord Miyoshi will hold prayers for peace at Todai Temple in three days.

Before that, we must get Lady Ulkyo to drink the love potion.

But to do that, we must first find the pot.

Where is it? Where is it?

My Lord.

Jotaro will also go to Todai Temple.

What?

The one with Isaribi's face and Kagaribi's heart told him of...

her sister Ulkyo, I believe.

Jotaro will surely go to the Todai Temple to defend her honor.

Jotaro is that kind of man.

Onibi may be right.

Isaribi's body, with Kagaribi's face.

Some of the monks are in an uproar.

They must be sensing that something is about to happen.

Lord Danjo.

What?

The monks are rising up.

Monks in arms...

I will rule over all!

THREE DAYS LATER

TODAI TEMPLE

Who are you? What do you want?

The bewitching skill!

What?

Armed monks, raiding the temple?

Yes. But I don't know why.

They're setting fire to the temple!

Kill them! Kill them all!

Lady Ulkyo!

Lady Ulkyo! This way!

Oh, no.

Who are you?

My Lord!

My Lord!

- The Lady, she's... she's... - What happened?

A man grabbed her and ran off that way, towards the Buddha.

What?!

My Lady!

My Lady.

I'm fine.

My Lady.

Please wait here. I'll go get some medicine for your fever.

Wait.

What is your name?

My name is Jotaro.

Jotaro.

My Lord!

My Lord! Please wait!

Silence!

My Lord, don't walk alone. It's not safe.

My Lord!

Leave me alone!

Well, what is it? What do you want?

My Lord.

It seems that Jotaro jumped into the flames of his own accord.

Intentionally?

Jotaro's a ninja.

He must be hiding out somewhere with Lady Ulkyo.

Sorry it took so long.

I had to go a bit far to get this medicine.

This one's good for reducing your fever.

Why are you so kind to me?

Why did you save me?

Won't you tell me?

My Lady.

Please just concentrate on getting well.

Then you can return home.

It's not that I'm sad about being here.

I want to be here.

Jotaro.

I don't know why, but...

I want to stay here with you.

And never leave.

Kagaribi.

Kagaribi?

My Lady.

Kagaribi was...

she was to be my wife.

I see.

This cross...

is a keepsake she gave me.

My Lady.

I'll explain this.

I'll tell you everything.

Believe me.

Will you?

From the time you took me into the fire with you,

I've trusted you.

My Lady.

Jotaro.

- I'll return to the castle. - But you're not well!

I'll be fine.

I'll tell Lord Miyoshi about this and avenge my sister.

My Lady.

That's my duty as her sister. I'll be all right.

The fiends have found you.

They'll bring reinforcements. Run!

Hurry!

Who sent this?

I don't know.

But we have no choice but to believe him.

They're gone!

They escaped?

Jotaro.

- My Lady. - Jotaro.

I'm sorry.

What happened? Who were they?

Jotaro.

Fighting those fiends successfully

requires a strong heart and mind, that is also able to trust people.

You possess these qualities.

Please, at least tell me your name.

There is no need.

My Lady.

Jotaro.

I'll make sure the Lord knows the truth.

Jotaro.

We'll see the Lady safely back to the castle.

Now, then. Stay alive, Jotaro!

The five fiends. I'll get them all.

- MIYOSHI CASTLE - So who is this "Jotaro fellow?

He's the young man who saved me from the fire.

- Please, my Lord... - Silence!

If he had the teapot that Soelki gave Danjo, it's self-explanatory.

It's clear that he's a thief.

You're ill, so you're not thinking clearly.

My Lord.

Please see through Danjo. He's evil.

How can I make you understand?

Danjo Matsunaga is an important ally.

Would you rather I side with thieves and bandits?

My Lord.

Don't you believe me at all?

Don't you want to listen to anything I say?

That pot given to Danjo...

I will give the pot back to Danjo.

You're not to go near it!

Understand?

Jotaro.

My sister. Kagaribi...

Don't look so surprised.

I, Kashin, see all. Nothing escapes me.

The teapot containing the love potion is at Miyoshi's castle?

And Lady Ulkyo is there, too?

Kashin.

Come now, we must hurry.

Unbind me!

Kashin!

Kashin!

Kashin! Hurry!

There's no need to rush.

You have the five magicians on your side.

Besides...

this woman, too... someday...

What?

You mean Onibi?

So just who were those masked riders?

Well, I don't think they were ninja.

I'll ask the master. I won't just trust your hunch.

Maybe you're forgetting something. You owe me your life, remember?

Doctors are to be respected.

Oh that's right. You're a doctor.

Now you're mortal. Now you're mine.

Now let's see how "Immortal" you are!

Jotaro.

Let's forget everything,

and just live together, happily.

But, Jotaro.

Just tell me one thing.

Those masked riders.

Who were they?

Jotaro.

You'll tell me, won't you?

Kagaribi.

Who were the riders in black?

Kagaribi.

I know who you are.

The fiend without a face.

It's you, isn't it?

If you had taken me just then,

I could have taken over your mind.

But that dead girl interfered.

What are you saying?

Jotaro set fire to the temple?

No, it's impossible!

Seems he's confessed to it.

Anyway, he's to be executed.

Executed?

Danjo is sorry to hear that you got embroiled in this mess,

and he's coming to pay his respects.

At that time, I'll return the teapot, and all will be restored.

Then everything will be all right.

Jotaro.

Executed?

What?

Lady Ulkyo has disappeared?

She went off alone somewhere.

In traveling clothes.

You fools!

I'll find her for sure.

My Lord.

How about if I become Lady Ulkyo?

While the real Lady is gone,

I'll impersonate her.

I'll go to Lord Miyoshi's mansion.

What?

I'll act as if I have fallen in love with you.

I won't need the love potion.

And, suppose Lord Miyoshi, who loves Lady Ulkyo,

should happen to die in an accident.

Since Lady Ulkyo is the Shogun's daughter,

you'll naturally become the next leader.

The next ruler. But, suppose...

My Lord.

Even if...

the real Lady Ulkyo...

should return one day,

I'll accuse her of being an imposter, and have her summarily executed!

I see Kashin has schemed well.

What is it?

I need a favor.

Please hear me out.

Yes, anything for you, Miss Onibi.

Jotaro. Hurry.

Who are you?

I'm here to help.

Who are you?

I'm Ulkyo.

My Lady.

Why risk your life?

I fooled the guard and got this key.

Jotaro. We must hurry.

Come.

The real Onibi is on her way to Kyoto, pretending to be you.

And here you are, pretending to be her.

This must be your fate.

Jotaro.

My Lady.

You monster!

Jotaro!

Jotaro.

Jotaro. Jotaro!

Welcome home.

You've regained your sanity.

I can't believe how happy this makes me.

I...

I... I...

You're... You're...

Who are you?

The Lady's new chambermaid, Chidori.

Chidori?

My Lord, don't you like me?

Of course I like you.

I'm completely smitten with you.

Tomorrow, Lord Danjo will pay us a visit.

When he comes, you'll do as I whisper it to you now.

- Right? - Oh, yes.

My Lady.

My Lady!

The masked samurai.

Regarding the destruction of the Todai Temple,

and the theft of the teapot,

I take full responsibility.

Please accept my sincere apology.

It's all right.

It's forgotten.

Here is the stolen teapot. Please take it.

This is indeed the one that was stolen from my castle.

Thank you very much.

Please wait!

The Lady has already returned to the castle.

Please wait!

What is this?

There are two of you?

My Lord, this woman is an imposter.

Certainly not. That woman is the imposter.

My Lord.

Don't let her fool you.

My Lord, that woman really is the imposter.

Judging from the voice, I would say...

But, I'm not sure...

They are mirror images of each other.

Yet there cannot be two of you.

But... but...

I'll kill the fake one, then!

My Lord!

My Lord.

Go ahead, kill that imposter!

I just can't tell.

- I just don't know anything. - My Lord!

Get back!

Quiet!

Lord Miyoshi lost control of his senses, and killed himself.

From now on, his domain, along with his post as the Shogun's top man

will belong to me, Danjo Matsunaga.

Now there are no more imposters.

Right, Lady Ulkyo?

Drink it!

Drink it!

Drink.

And then look at me first.

Jotaro!

You fool!

Who are you?

Shinzaemon!

Lord Yagyu!

Danjo.

Damn you, Kashin. Show yourself!

Jotaro.

Damn you, Kashin!

Come out!

Jotaro!

Jotaro!

My Lady.

Jotaro. How nice to see you again.

It seems my five disciples were not up to the task.

Kashin. It's you.

Kashin the Sorcerer.

Jotaro!

My Lady!

Jotaro.

My Lady!

Damn you, Kashin!

Jotaro. Don't come any closer.

Don't come any closer!

Don't come any closer!

Jotaro! You can't come any closer!

I pray to the heavens. Hear my prayer!

Let us vanquish evil with our love!

Hear my prayer. Hear my prayer!

Jotaro.

Jotaro, I love you.

Let us vanquish evil with our love!

Jotaro.

Love potion.

How absurd.
