Original subtitles

I see.

You're returning to Azuchi.

It would, indeed, be difficult to travel there at night.

Please come inside.

Thanks.

I appreciate it.

HONNOUJI

Honnouji?

I'm pretty sure I've heard that name somewhere before.

"The year is 1582.

Just before completing his conquest of Japan,

Oda Nobunaga was betrayed by his retainer,

Akechi Mitsuhide, at Honnouji, in Kyoto..."

No way!

"...betrayed by his retainer, Akechi Mitsuhide,

at Honnouji, in Kyoto, and slain."

"This is known as the Honnouji Incident."

My lord,

you should wash off the journey's sweat.

Here's a change of clothes.

Yeah.

Hideyoshi, you want to join me?

I have to help get dinner ready.

Oh, yeah?

That's no fun.

Then, Mitsuhide, you'll join me, right?

I'll be tending to the bath's fire.

Take your time.

I see.

See you in a bit, then.

That wasn't unusual,

right?

That's right.

It's always been that way.

Things won't happen like they did in the textbook!

Episode 10

Double Suicide Maiden

My lord.

How is the bath?

Perfect.

This is paradise.

I'm glad to hear that.

I've served my lord for as long as I can remember.

I've given her my whole life and more,

but if she still doesn't realize my feelings, then

I should kill her myself, and then I...

Kill?

Someone's in a bad mood.

What's wrong, Mitsuhide?

Did something happen?

N-Not at all.

I'm terribly sorry, my lord.

I've run out of wood.

I'll go get more.

Very well.

All right.

What are you doing here, Masamune-dono?

Actually, could you simply forget what you heard?

What I heard?

They were meaningless words. I was talking to myself.

Please forget them.

Nobunaga-san got sick of you!

You've been dumped.

Shut up!

I guess you're still—

Apologies, Masamune-dono. I must return.

So, just who do you plan to kill?

Hideyoshi-dono?

Or perhaps Nobuna—

Masamune-dono!

Even if you are imagining such things,

it can't be helped.

I've recognized your loyalty more than anyone.

You've traveled the length and breadth of the land,

searching for the Crimson Armor, gathering information, and offering it to her.

Your daily training and studies...

All for Nobunaga-dono, as well, yes?

And yet, of late, she seems enthralled by Hideyoshi-dono.

She prefers useless little Hideyoshi-dono over you.

Now you'll have nothing left,

so I can see where you might get certain ideas.

No, I'm certain I'd think the same thing.

Do not hesitate!

You feel this way because your love is deep and true.

That is what a woman's love means.

You should put it to the test.

Test what?

The bond between you and Nobunaga-dono.

If that bond is true, then nothing should

prevent your feelings from reaching her.

What is this?

Sake.

But it's much stronger than normal.

It would be enough to put anyone to sleep instantly.

How you use it is up to you.

You may drink it along with Nobunaga-dono,

or if you prefer,

drink it yourself and enjoy the night's dreams.

The choice is yours.

Are you prepared to risk your life to know?

Um... What exactly is going on here?

Akerin?

Hey, why are you doing this?

Akerin!

This is a wager.

A wager to determine my fate and my lord's.

A wager? Fate?

Wait, Akerin!

I don't understand what you're saying!

Akerin!

Akerin...

She can't be...

HONNOUJI

The Honnouji Incident?

THE HONNOUJI INCIDENT

...BETRAYED BY RETAINER AKECHI MITSUHIDE...

No, you can't do it!

...ODA NOBUNAGA...

...WAS SLAIN.

Untie me!

It's no use. I can't do it.

Someone untie me!

Come to think of it,

why am I always the one who's tied up?

It's quiet.

Where are the temple priestesses?

They retired to the other building.

I tried to refuse,

but they said that a quiet evening

would best ease the exhaustion of our journey.

Hmm... I'll have to apologize for that.

But I couldn't refuse their kindness.

What's that?

Someone from a nearby village offered it for you.

I took it, thinking it would be a good way to celebrate

our having gathered all the armor.

I see.

What's wrong?

Why are you so quiet?

We've finally collected all the armor.

Much has happened along the way.

I've burdened you a lot.

Not at all, thank you.

Come to think of it, where's Hideyoshi?

She didn't go to the other building too, did she?

Hideyoshi is preparing some food

to go with the sake.

She insisted on doing it alone,

so I came to keep you company.

I see.

Yes.

Now, my lord, drink up.

Thanks.

This is good!

You have some too!

I made a vow

not to celebrate until you've succeeded

in unifying the land.

You're as serious as ever.

Here, have another.

Thanks.

No one's coming.

I'm hungry!

Huh? They got looser.

Are they falling off because I'm hungry?

Oh, whatever!

I need to stop Akerin!

Damn it.

I've served you for so long.

My lord...

Mitsuhide will be with you forever.

My lord...

I shall follow you soon.

Wait!

Akerin...

Akerin...

Hideyoshi.

How did you escape those ropes?

Did you do this?

It has nothing to do with you!

Did you kill our lord?

Answer me!

Akerin!

She's just asleep.

That's enough, right?

Go.

Go!

No!

What?

There's still time!

We can still stop this!

Why did you do this?

Why?

Don't you dare ask me that!

Ever since you...

Ever since you showed up!

I was happy when we were alone.

She cared only for me,

smiled only at me.

And now,

you've come between us and stolen

the only thing I've ever wanted!

So, at least allow me to meet my end by her side.

No... No! That's wrong!

What?

If I came between you, I'm sorry!

But that's no reason to kill her!

How dare you even speak...

Is it OK with you, never seeing her laugh again?

Never laughing with her?

It's not OK with me!

You—

You love her, right?

Can you only love her as

the sole person she cares for?

Akerin!

Whatever!

She's interfering.

My lord! My lord!

Damn it.

Hideyoshi, where did you go?

At this rate, I'll...

What am I thinking?

I was planning on dying here too, until a minute ago.

That's wrong!

Is it OK with you, never seeing her laugh again?

Can you only love her as

the sole person she cares for?

I...

Mitsuhide!

Where's the enemy?!

The enemy?

My lord's enemy...

Mitsuhide!

What's wrong? Mitsuhide!

The enemy is at Honnouji...

Inside my heart...

I am terribly sorry, my lord!

I am a traitor, unworthy of being your retainer!

Please run away!

I will pay for this sin with my life!

My lord...

Read this.

Read it!

"Conquest."

Indeed! Conquest!

Don't you dare, Mitsuhide.

My dream of conquest

would have never begun without you.

Don't you dare say anything so stupid,

not when we're so close to reaching it!

I'm dragging you out of here, whether you like it or not.

Got it?

Yes.

You and I are one.

That will never change.

I-I'm so happy...

How awful.

Cruel blade!

You're safe?

Priestess, take a look at Mitsuhide!

She's not breathing!

She probably inhaled too much smoke.

What do we do?

First, I'll make her some medicine,

and then we'll wash her throat out.

There isn't time!

We just need to make her breathe, right?

That's... That's true.

Mitsuhide, don't die!

Mitsuhide!

Mitsuhide!

What...

What is this warm, happy feeling?

My lord is...

My lord is kissing me.

May this happy moment last as long as possible.

Her face looks much better.

I see.

Mitsuhide!

Mitsuhide!

Mitsuhide.

My lord.

You made me worry, you fool.

My lord.

By the way, where's the other one?

My lord!

Where are you?

I can't breathe,

but I have to find her.

My lord!

Masamune-san...

Where are you taking that...

Hide-san!

Hide-san?

Hide-san!

Date-sensei...

She just called me Hide-san...

You're awake?

Hideyoshi-sama has awakened.

Where am I...

You should stay down.

Hideyoshi, how do you feel?

I still feel a little out of it.

Why am I...

You were unconscious outside the temple.

I'm glad you're safe.

Rest some more.

Hideyoshi, forgive me for last night.

Something was wrong with me.

I'll never do anything like that again.

Akerin...

But you only got one.

I got twelve!

Huh?

Well, whatever.

Akerin seems to have changed her mind,

so all's well that ends well.

But I think I'm forgetting something important.

What is she doing?

Searching.

It seems the Crimson Armor is under there.

The Crimson Armor...

What's wrong, Hideyoshi?

Why?

Why what?

Masamune-san might be Date-sensei!

I did it! I did it!

Now, once I get the armor to Azuchi Castle,

the Date clan's long-cherished desire...

Nice job, for a hick samurai from Oushuu.

Hand that over.

It won't do you any good.

Ieyasu-dono...

I'm going to conquer this land,

and I'll start

by killing you.

Let's say, hypothetically,

we were thieves who could steal anything we wanted.

What would you want to steal?

Hide Yoshino

Hidaka Rina

Let me see...

An amusement park!

An amusement park?

From the manager.

The manager?

Amusement parks have managers?

Yes, that's right.

I'll steal it from the manager.

And then I could play any time I wanted.

And ride the roller coaster whenever I wanted.

That sounds fun.

But what would you do after you stole it?

After I stole it, I would...

Watch next time, OK?
