Episode 16: Two Sides

The Sanada refused to submit
to Regent (Hachiba) Hideyoshi.

However, the Uesugi submitted to Hideyoshi.

(Sanada) Nobushige, in Osaka as
a hostage to the Uesugi,

was caught in a dilemma.

How do you like it in Osaka?

Are you getting sick and tired of it?

I grew up in the deep
mountains of Shinano

so everything here is of
interest to me.

I've no time to be bored.

Thank the Uesugi.

Yes, had they not brought me,
I’d never have set foot in Osaka.

Genjiro...

I've bad news.

Bad news?

The Uesugi rushed home to Echigo.
ISHIDA MITSUNARI

What?!

They just left.

They pledged their loyalty
so Echigo will change.

They're preparing for it.

Any mention of me?

Nothing in particular.

He didn't mention you.

I don't understand.

Why did Lord Uesugi...

It must be that.

I told him that if the Tokugawa
and the Sanada were to battle,

don't side with the Sanada.

What did Lord Uesugi say?

All right.

I don't believe that.

The Uesugi and Sanada are tightly bound.

That's in the past.

What happens to me?

I was sent to the Uesugi as a hostage.

Can I return to Ueda now?

I've good news, too.

You'll be part of the Regent's
mounted guards.

What?!

We're short a guard now.

The Regent has good
feelings about you.

And being a son of the Sanada,
we've no qualms about lineage.

Moving forward, you'll protect
the Regent as his bodyguard.

But...

We'll inform your father.

Sakichi (Mitsunari).

I already sent a letter
to Ueda this morning.

You move fast.

Therefore, Sanada
Genjiro Nobushige...

from tomorrow...

you are the Regent's vassal.

Understood?

Yes.

Our situation has changed.

I'll be serving the Regent.

That's a huge chance.

I'm just as surprised.

For how long?

I'll be here for a while.

I see.

But it may be a good opportunity.

I can inform my father about
Hideyoshi in greater detail.

Therefore, go back to Ueda.

No way! I'm staying here.

You can't stay at the Ishida
mansion forever.

You needn't worry about that.

I have to.

I like living in Osaka.

I have nothing to do at home.

It's the same here.

Then what does it matter
if I stay here then?

Stop talking nonsense.

I want to stay by your side.

You don't have to.

Do as you please!

I'll ask Sir Ishida to assign
an escort to you.

Depart tomorrow.

No, thanks.
I'll take care of myself.

I'm leaving.
Thank you for everything.

Originally, a mounted guard
was under the security squad

protecting the general in battle.

The mounted guards who served
Hideyoshi would continue

to guard him even when
there were no battle

always protecting him
from danger.

Why, Sir Katagiri.

Sir Hirano, how unfortunate.

We were supposed
to protect the Regent...

How disappointing

Who would have thought that
would happened to Gonza.

He was so full of energy.
I'm still shocked.

There's no point regretting it.

And so, we have a new
guard from today.

I heard about it.

He was personally selected
by the Regent.

This is Sanada Genjiro.

This is Hirano Nagayasu,
leader of the mounted guards.

Pleased to meet you.

Same here.

Let's work together
to protect the Regent.

Take care of him.

Sir Katagiri.

Thank you very much for
coming here personally.

Don't mention it.

Huh!

What's with that attitude?

His name is Sukesaku,

but the old-timers call him
Nukesaku (numb-skull).

Do you know your duties?

More or less.

We go wherever the Regent goes.

The two groups take turns.

The red group...and the yellow group.

The red group is currently out...
the yellow group is practicing.

You're with the yellow group.

On your day off,
you have to be here

to act on a moment's
notice if necessary.

Be proud that you were
selected as his guard.

Understood.

Wait here until you're called.

Excuse me...

Did someone pass away?

Gonza fell into the well
this morning and drowned.

Well?

But in reality, he was murdered.

No one say it, but they all think so.

He was murdered?

I've an idea who did it.

I'm almost positive it was Toranosuke.

Kato Kiyomasa?

Toranosuke showed up last night
and took Gonza drinking.

KATO KIYOMASA

Is Gonza around?

Yes.

The two drank in
Toranosuke's room,

and on his way back he
drunkenly fell into the well.

I'm pretty sure Toranosuke
pushed him in.

Why would Kato want to kill him?

It's obvious.

The Regent told him to.

The Regent?

I had a feeling this would happen one day.

Chacha favored Gonza.

Chacha?

Are you aware the Regent
has feelings for Chacha?

Some what.

The Regent was jealous of Gonza.

So he ordered Toranosuke to kill Gonza.

Did Gonza...

have long brows, a fair
complexion and gentle features?

How do you know that?

I saw him recently.

I see...that makes sense.

I advise you to be careful, too.

It's best to keep your distance from Chacha.

Or you'll end up like Gonza.

You're my type.

Sir Hirano.

The Regent is leaving his room.

To go where?

The main hall.

Yellow group, let's go.

Yes, sir.

- How have you been?
- Good, sir.

- How are you feeling?
- Well Sir.

You're looking good.

That's good.

I've been waiting for you.

This look great, Rikyu.

The merchants of Sakai found
these fabulous items for you.

They are dazzling.

What are you looking for?
SEN NO RIKYU

Those were imported.

Magoshichiro.

This silk is from Siam (Thailand). The
bright pattern matches young women.
HASHIBA HIDETSUGU

Well now.

This linen is from Luzon (Philippines),

and has a subdued color
that would suit older women.

I've decided.

I'll take this.

And that, too.

Thank you for your purchase.

Thanks for your help, Rikyu.

I am glad to be of service.

NEI

Isn't it a splendid sash?

I chose it.

Thank you.

That's a very nice sash.

Uncle has good taste.

Magoshichiro, you are
not a very good liar.

Huh?

My husband wouldn't choose
a color like this.

Didn't you arrange it?

Aunty, you can't be fooled.

What are you saying?

What are you...!?

I am grateful for this.

Hey.

This is a gift from the Regent.
Handle it with care.

Certainly.

What are you doing here?

Huh?

I told you to return to Ueda.

I asked here to stay.

We are shorthanded.

Do you know her?

She accompanied me from Ueda.

My name is Kiri.

By the way, Aunty,

Rikyu has brought in
many unusual items.

If you go now, you can see them.
Would you be interested?

That is enough for me.

He has the mirror you
wanted from Portugal.

Oh my.

I'll buy that for you.

Will you come with me?

But...

Will you go and look at it for me?

Let's go.

All right.

Isn't she your concubine?

No, she isn't.

Magoshichiro is a fast mover.

I wonder who he took after (his uncle).

Oh, that's right. I have
something to tell you.

Please listen.

What is it?

The Kyushu expedition
will start soon.

Is Kyushu next?

Finally, Kyushu.

Are you going to be away
from Osaka for a while?

I'm not leaving Osaka.

What?

Kyushu is far away
across the sea.

If our allied forces are
away all at once,

the Tokugawa and the Hojo
may plot something.

So I decided not to go.

Then who is going?

The Mouri in Chugoku.

The Chosokabe in Shikoku.

And the Daimyo who became
my recent vassals.

I'll have them invade in my place.

Hidenaga will go in last to wrap it up.

Isn't that a great plan?

Yes, it is.

Were you listening?

It's a wonderful plan.

So what do I have to do?

The wives and children
of the Kyushu Lords

will be coming as hostages.

There will be many of them.

From the Otomo, Ryuzoji, Akizuki,
Aso, Sagara, and Shimazu.

Will you take care of them?

You want me to?

They're families of illustrious
daimyo lords in Kyushu.

We must provide them
with warm hospitality.

There's value in the Regent's
wife taking care of them.

Am I capable?

Only you can do it.

Whether we subdue Kyushu
or not depends on you.

I'll do what I can.

That's my wife for you!

Nei!

You're my Nei.

Stop it.

You're my Nei.

I'll be going now.

Sakichi.

CHACHA

What do you think?
CHACHA

Isn't it beautiful?
CHACHA

I chose it.

Are you sure it's all right?

I want you to have it.

Look. The Regent gave this to me.

Isn't it beautiful.

I bet you can't find these
in remote Shinano.

No, you can't.

Try feeling it.

Would you like to hold it?

No thank you.

Hey, did Gonza die?

Does anybody know what
happened to Gonza?

Gonza...died.

So it was true.

How unfortunate.

Is it true he fell into a well?

Did he fall into a well?

That is correct.

That's a little disappointing.

It's disappointing, isn't it?

So Genjiro took Gonza's place.

Is that what happened?

Genjiro, please be good to me.

Likewise.

You're quite a brave fellow.

What do you mean?

You were cozy with Chacha
in front of the Regent.

I didn't do anything.

If you want to live long,
stay away from Chacha.

For your information,
Gonza wasn't the first.

What?

He was the third one!

They all incurred the wrath
of the Regent.

And they died as a result.

Genjiro, do you have time?

Certainly.

What kind of person is Sir Hirano?

Why do you ask?

He referred to Sir Katagiri
by his nickname,

and he seems to be close
to Sir Kato Kiyomasa.

In the famous battle
of Shizugatake,

there were seven samurai
who won fame.

The "Seven Spears"?

They were Kato Kiyomasa,
Fukushima Masanori,

Kato Yoshiaki, Katagiri Katsumoto,

Wakizaka Yasuharu,
Kasuya Takenori,

and one last person.

I can't think of his name.

He's the seventh one.

Sir Ishida.

Did the Uesugi really cut
ties with the Sanada?

They didn't cut ties.

When the Tokugawa and
the Sanada go to battle,

they promised the Regent
they wouldn't aid the Sanada.

I find that hard to believe.

Even the great Uesugi
couldn't defy the Regent.

That's all there is to it.

By the way...

I'll return this.

It's all right to notify
your parents you're in Osaka.

but you have to be careful
of what you write.

Don't just stand there.

The Sanada will be destroyed.

Not so.

We will without aid from the Uesugi.

Only if you fight the Tokugawa.

But that won't happen.

The Regent isn't seriously
trying to destroy the Sanada.

He's being considerate
to the Tokugawa.

You've lost me.

He wants the Tokugawa
to owe him.

If the Tokugawa invades the Sanada,
the Regent will surely step in.

I don't believe that.

From now on,

Daimyo Lords can't wage war
without the Regent's consent.

We no longer live in a world
where battles resolve matters.

OTANI YOSHITSUGU

I'm sorry I'm late.

Well, well, Sir Genjiro.

He's one of the mounted
guards starting today.

He's no longer a guest,
so no need to add the "sir".

What is this place?

This is where books are
stored. It's a library.

Many different books are kept here.

It's used as a workplace. Follow me.

This is a map of the castle.

As a mounted guard,
know the positions.

Yes. Thank you.

Don't write it down.

Memorize it.

Certainly.

Have we reached a decision?

First of all, you are right.

To control Sakai, we have
to control the merchants.

In the end, I will have the Sakai
business follow Osaka.

But the Sakai merchants
are tightly knitted.

If you push too hard,
they will bite.

It's important to know that.

I'm well aware of that.

We'll accommodate those
who open shop in Osaka,

starting by being their patrons.

If they think doing business
with us will be beneficial,

they will surely turn to us.

I see what you mean.

There stands an obstacle
to accomplishing this.

Sen no Rikyu?

I am glad to be of service.

Being an Sakai merchant, he
can talk directly to the Regent.

The merchants' wishes are sent
to the Regent via Rikyu.

That must be fixed.

In other words...

our current enemy is...

He's a formidable enemy.

I will drag him down.

It's time.

I have to go to Kyoto
with the Regent.

You're busy as usual.

It's regarding the Daijo-Daijin
(Chancelor of the Realm)

That's it for today.

Hold down the fort for me.

I'm going.

The Regent is a busy man.

What did you honestly think?

About what?

The Regent.

He's an incredible man.

He's unlike any man I've met.

Where does he get his vitality?

He has a hectic schedule.

Yet how many concubines
do you think he has?

Excuse me.

May I interrupt?

Talking to me?

The Princess would like to see you.
LADY OKURAKYO

I am busy at the moment.

Please come.

Go.

But...

She wants to see you.

Come with me.

Let's go together.

Why should I go?

How did the Princess feel about Gonza?

What are you getting at?

She took fancy to him.

That's what I heard.

She didn't appear sad
when he died.

Is that how it looked to you?

The Princess...

stopped grieving.

Doesn't it match perfectly
with this kimono?

I wouldn't know those things.

Do you have a wife?

She died.

Oh no. I shouldn't have asked that.

It's all right.

It feels different with
foreign material.

It's just a matter of how
you tie it.

That's not true.
I received a nice gift.

I am almost certain that
the Regent didn't choose it.

Probably not.

The princess wanted someone
to see her wear that sash.

I've seen it.
Please excuse me now.

Stay longer.

But...

Tell me about the place
you were raised.

I've never been East of Kiyosu.

Another time.

About your wife, too.

The Regent will return soon.
Maybe another time.

Promise?

Someplace with the Regent.

I've a request.

Name it.

It may be best not to mention
my visit to the Regent.

If he found out I was here
while he was gone,

he won't be happy.

Don't worry. I'll handle it.

What is it?

It's nothing.

What are you looking at?

Are you dissatisfied with
something I did?

What did you do?

The Regent didn't ask me to do it.

I did it on my own.

Are you doing the same thing?

Tora!

Stop it!

Sir Koichiro.

You are now a 3,000 koku Lord.
Behave accordingly.
HASHIBA HIDENAGA

I will.

Go.

Excuse me.

I apologize.

Don't mention it.

Sanada Genjiro.

You must be surprised
a lot since coming here.

Yes, constantly surprised.

We've all come this far
following my brother Hideyoshi.

No one here was born a daimyo.

I received a great name,

and wear fine clothing,

but originally...

I was a farmer in Nakamura.

It happened so quickly...

my heart is still trying to catch up.

The same with Toranosuke...

myself...

and...

...Hideyoshi.

We're drowning in lifestyles with
which we're not accustomed.

That is Osaka Castle.

Toranosuke is actually
straight forward.

He would readily give up
his life for my brother.

Please forgive him.

I will.

HAMAMATSU CASTLE

Put some spirit into it!

That's good.

Put your waist into it
and you'll get better.

That's it.

Use that as an example.

Heihachiro.

Stop!

Yes, my Lord.

- Ina, come here.
- Yes.

Don't run.

I'm sorry.

Didn't I tell you not to run
when carrying a weapon?

What if you fall and scar
your pretty face?

I'm sorry.

I'm sorry, my Lord.

This is my daughter, Ina.

Your daughter?

Say your greetings.

I am Ina.
INA

You carried her when she
was still a baby.

Is that right?

Do you remember that time?

How could I?

Of course you wouldn't.

Lord.

Heihachiro.

It's time to punish the Sanada.

The time has finally come.

I'm currently waiting for
Hideyoshi's approval.

What was that?

Why do we need
Hideyoshi's approval?

Don't say that.

I'll make him look good.

Father.

I want to be part of
the Sanada expedition.

Don't be stupid.

I want to destroy the despicable Sanada.

Now, now, Ina.

I appreciate your spirit.

Even without your aid,

we will crush the Sanada.

Certainly!

Continue.

Continue!

Begin!

Begin!

Your letter should be
arriving in Osaka shortly.

I hope it goes well.

Word of Tokugawa Ieyasu
gathering a huge army

was delivered to Masayuki
UEDA CASTLE

Ieyasu is finally putting
his mind to it.

Why isn't he attacking
immediately?

What is Ieyasu waiting for?

I'm worried about the
Hojo's movement.

Are the Tokugawa timing it
with the Hojo,

to attack simultaneously?

What about aid from the Uesugi?

They should have received our letter by now.

At this point...

our only hope is the Uesugi.

We need the Uesugi to
fight with us this time.

Lord! We have a crisis!

What happened?

The Uesugi have refused
to send aid.

What?!

Impossible.

They are tightly bond
with the Sanada.

It must be Hideyoshi.

Hideyoshi?

It's an order from Hideyoshi.

Not to provide aid in the
battle with the Tokugawa.

What?

So we have the Uesugi
as an enemy now.

The Hojo, the Tokugawa,
and the Uesugi.

We are completely surrounded
by enemies now.

Father.

Is Ieaysu waiting for
Hideyoshi's approval?

Approval?

Hideyoshi forbids the Daimyos
from battling without permission.

In other words...

Ieyasu has become
a subject of Hideyoshi's?

That is likely.

Men...

We are in serious trouble!

Interesting.

No, it's not!

This happened because you
didn't pay homage right away!

What are you going to do?

What should I do?

Genjiro is in Osaka.

We'll have Genjiro mediate
with Hideyoshi.

He's our only hope!

I'm back.

Have you been well?

Genjiro.

The Regent summons you.

The Regent?

He found out about Chacha.

That must be it.

You're going to die.

You're going to die!

(Tokugawa) Ieyasu...

is seeking approval
to invade the Sanada.

That is laudable.

He's following your law.

Genjiro.

I only knew Ieyasu as a youth.

Didn't you meet him
in recent years?

What is your opinion of him?

Does this letter reflect
his honest feelings?

Is he serious about
becoming my vassal?

Or is this a trap?

That is not his honest feelings.

That's a bold statement.

You must not trust Ieyasu.

Why do you say that?

Ieyasu is a very cautious man.

If he invades the Sanada
without permission,

he will incur your wrath.

You may side with the Sanada.

Isn't that what he's afraid of?

It's merely a strategy
to defeat the Sanada.

That is his honest feeling.

What do you think, Sakichi?

If he wasn't a member of the Sanada,

I might have believed it.

Please wait.

It could be viewed as he's
trying to protect the Sanada from Ieyasu.

I don't think I can fool the Regent!

Now, now.

Sakichi.

Genjiro has a point there.

Doesn't he, Hachiba Hidenaga?

Indeed.

That makes sense.

I was almost fooled by Ieyasu.

Regent, please get ready.

I'm going to Kyoto to meet
the Nobles.

Hold down the fort.

Understood.

Please have a safe trip.

How did it go?

Regarding Chacha.

No, it wasn't about that.

Oh, really? How boring.

The Regent is an incredible man.

What brought that on?

As important as he's become,

he listens to his vassals' opinions.

That's a wonderful trait.

He's never listened to me.

Genjiro.

I'd like to talk to you.

What can I do for you,
Sir Katagiri?

I'll be going to Hamamatsu
as a messenger.

I have no idea if it's cold or hot there.

Shall I bring warm clothing?

You won't need it.

It should be nice and cool.

Thanks.

You're going as a messenger?

That's right.

It's a big assignment.

Please be careful.

It's going to be rough on you,

but this is the fate of one
who lives in a warring era.

Wait a minute!

What is this about?

They're not invading
the Sanada, are they?

Is that what you were told?

That's right.

The Regent approved Ieyasu's
invasion of the Sanada.

That can't be!

As soon as I arrive there,
the invasion should start.

Sir Ishida said it wouldn't
move to battle!

It contradicts what I heard!

There's nothing I can do.

If the Tokugawa's huge army
should invade now,

the Sanada will stand no chance!

This is a problem.

Excuse me!

The Sanada...The Sanada will be destroyed.

Regent!

Sir Ishida!

END OF EPISODE 16

We'll destroy the Sanada.

We'll raise the Sanada's value even more.

Aren't you my sister?

A temporary hostage.

She's still a hostage!

Are you two close?

Ease the tension between
the Regent and the Tokugawa.

Help me!

Aichi Prefecture Tsushima City.

Kato Kiyomasa, Hideyoshi's senior statesman...

spent his childhood living in this area.

(His father) Kato Kiyotada was said to have lived on this site.

At the age of 10, there were
anecdotes of Kato Kiyomasa's valor.

The following legend was handed down from this area....

"One night some thieves entered the Kiyomasa's household...

Everyone was bound up in one heap
while Kiyomasa hid himself.

The thieves were searching for gold and opened the large boes.

"Da-down! " he made a loud sound

then Kiyomasa wearing the mask of an ogre, suddenly jumped out of the box.

He said: The thieves, we'll exterminate them!"

Kiyomasa was said to spend
his childhood at Myouen-ji Temple.

The Hanshi was used in Tenarai

The pine tree branches in the temple
precincts were dried and preserved from that time.

Kato Kiyomasa achieved great fame under Hideyoshi.

His time occured in the same era as Sanada Nobushige.
