3
00:00:10,800 --> 00:00:12,670
If it makes your soul ache,

4
00:00:13,550 --> 00:00:15,770
that is your true self.

5
00:00:17,280 --> 00:00:19,600
Kumehachi of Kobusa's confession

6
00:00:20,160 --> 00:00:23,510
enabled Heizo to arrest
Yahei the Worm's gang.

7
00:00:23,600 --> 00:00:26,700
Chief robbery investigator,
Hasegawa Heizo!

8
00:00:27,710 --> 00:00:29,110
Meanwhile,

9
00:00:29,250 --> 00:00:33,100
arson and robbery constable
Ono Juzo

10
00:00:33,290 --> 00:00:36,320
had fallen in love with Ofuji,
a thief's wife.

11
00:00:38,840 --> 00:00:39,959
However...

12
00:00:39,960 --> 00:00:40,439
Ofuji!

13
00:00:40,440 --> 00:00:42,970
Ofuji was abducted, and killed.

14
00:00:45,120 --> 00:00:46,290
Be strong!

15
00:00:46,400 --> 00:00:47,430
Give my child...

16
00:00:47,431 --> 00:00:49,270
I NAME THEE JUN
a name...

17
00:00:50,770 --> 00:00:51,870
Ojun...

18
00:00:54,240 --> 00:00:57,710
Umekichi of Ogawaya
escaped arrest,

19
00:00:57,900 --> 00:01:01,240
and Juzo took his own life.

20
00:01:03,220 --> 00:01:06,450
After Juzo's death,
Heizo and his wife Hisae

21
00:01:06,810 --> 00:01:09,790
took in Ofuji's daughter, Ojun.

22
00:01:11,060 --> 00:01:12,190
Ojun.

23
00:01:15,880 --> 00:01:19,090
Then, not long after that...

24
00:01:28,600 --> 00:01:34,830
Heizo became aware of
another gang of vicious thieves.

25
00:01:36,480 --> 00:01:43,080
In quick succession, they attacked
merchants, inns, and wealthy farmers.

26
00:01:56,030 --> 00:01:59,150
TANBE THE BLOODTHIRSTY

27
00:01:59,230 --> 00:02:01,540
Tanbe the Bloodthirsty

28
00:02:04,040 --> 00:02:08,510
SAMURAI DETECTIVE ONIHEI

29
00:02:10,770 --> 00:02:11,780
TRUE MASTER

30
00:02:11,860 --> 00:02:14,740
- Tanbe the Bloodthirsty?
- Again?

31
00:02:14,820 --> 00:02:17,210
- Again.
- How many did he kill?

32
00:02:17,300 --> 00:02:19,956
- All of them.
- Really...

33
00:02:21,140 --> 00:02:22,720
Sir. Sir.

34
00:02:22,800 --> 00:02:24,350
What did you just say?

35
00:02:24,430 --> 00:02:27,560
Did you... Did you say
Tanbe the Bloodthirsty?!

36
00:02:28,850 --> 00:02:30,800
What has Tanbe done now?!

37
00:02:31,960 --> 00:02:33,900
"Let me see Sir Hasegawa!

38
00:02:34,610 --> 00:02:35,800
Let me see him!

39
00:02:38,510 --> 00:02:39,600
Stop there.

40
00:03:01,250 --> 00:03:04,430
You have something to tell me?

41
00:03:08,220 --> 00:03:11,100
I overheard the prison guards talking.

42
00:03:12,330 --> 00:03:15,030
The Tanbe the Bloodthirsty you chase

43
00:03:15,480 --> 00:03:16,650
is a fake.

44
00:03:17,130 --> 00:03:18,714
What? A fake?

45
00:03:18,715 --> 00:03:19,350
Yes.

46
00:03:19,800 --> 00:03:24,370
The true Tanbe the Bloodthirsty
would not kill to steal.

47
00:03:24,770 --> 00:03:27,360
Even if the world were topsy-turvy.

48
00:03:27,620 --> 00:03:32,000
But he left a wooden tag
with his name burned into it.

49
00:03:32,080 --> 00:03:34,880
Tanbe would do that.

50
00:03:34,980 --> 00:03:37,640
As a proud example to other thieves.

51
00:03:37,720 --> 00:03:41,190
Some fake is merely
imitating his ways.

52
00:03:45,720 --> 00:03:47,250
You know him?

53
00:03:48,120 --> 00:03:49,410
The true Tanbe?

54
00:03:50,830 --> 00:03:52,450
Till the age of 19,

55
00:03:52,800 --> 00:03:54,170
I was his protege.

56
00:03:54,500 --> 00:03:57,150
You worked for
Tanbe the Bloodthirsty?

57
00:04:01,400 --> 00:04:02,930
Sir Hasegawa.

58
00:04:03,950 --> 00:04:06,040
I shall never forget.

59
00:04:06,120 --> 00:04:08,430
In the castle town of Okazaki,

60
00:04:08,510 --> 00:04:12,540
we broke into the home of
the wealthy Yoshinoya Sensuke.

61
00:04:13,500 --> 00:04:16,800
When I tried to accost a kitchenmaid,

62
00:04:16,880 --> 00:04:18,900
my boss became furious.

63
00:04:20,110 --> 00:04:21,240
Kumehachi!

64
00:04:23,980 --> 00:04:28,170
You have the gall
to call yourself a thief?!

65
00:04:29,010 --> 00:04:31,000
You are no follower of mine!

66
00:04:34,920 --> 00:04:37,630
Because of that, he disowned me.

67
00:04:38,540 --> 00:04:39,760
I see.

68
00:04:40,820 --> 00:04:43,810
Then why did you not mend your ways?

69
00:04:44,740 --> 00:04:48,750
You joined the gang of that brute
Yahei the Worm.

70
00:04:50,690 --> 00:04:53,810
I am a pathetic rogue,
and weak.

71
00:04:57,320 --> 00:04:58,320
However,

72
00:05:00,090 --> 00:05:01,870
after meeting you, sir,

73
00:05:02,740 --> 00:05:04,130
you reminded me of what

74
00:05:04,680 --> 00:05:07,130
my former master taught me.

75
00:05:08,400 --> 00:05:09,570
After all,

76
00:05:09,650 --> 00:05:11,840
he is a man of principle.

77
00:05:11,930 --> 00:05:14,400
The true Tanbe the Bloodthirsty...

78
00:05:14,490 --> 00:05:15,690
Hey, Kumehachi.

79
00:05:16,510 --> 00:05:19,570
Don't compare
our chief to a master thief!

80
00:05:19,650 --> 00:05:22,450
If, Kumehachi,
what you say is true,

81
00:05:22,830 --> 00:05:25,360
the true Tanbe the Bloodthirsty

82
00:05:25,560 --> 00:05:27,440
will not remain silent.

83
00:05:28,270 --> 00:05:30,920
Neither will I! Damn that fake.

84
00:05:31,000 --> 00:05:33,050
Damn that deceitful savage!

85
00:05:35,130 --> 00:05:36,340
Kumehachi.

86
00:05:38,030 --> 00:05:42,720
For better, and for worse,
people can change.

87
00:05:49,470 --> 00:05:53,460
GOTETSU GAME FOWL HOTPOT

88
00:06:11,160 --> 00:06:14,540
It doesn't make any sense
to me either.

89
00:06:14,770 --> 00:06:16,910
Hikoju, you know Tanbe too?

90
00:06:17,230 --> 00:06:19,970
Yes, but I've never seen his face.

91
00:06:20,920 --> 00:06:24,890
Tanbe the Bloodthirsty,
as that Kumehachi says,

92
00:06:25,200 --> 00:06:28,500
is regarded among us thieves
as an upstanding boss.

93
00:06:29,740 --> 00:06:31,600
I have heard the same.

94
00:06:31,680 --> 00:06:35,240
He spills no blood,
nor does he defile women.

95
00:06:35,320 --> 00:06:38,180
He only robs the wealthy.

96
00:06:38,260 --> 00:06:41,050
He is a thief who honors tradition.

97
00:06:43,580 --> 00:06:45,410
Well, I cannot pass judgment

98
00:06:46,250 --> 00:06:48,810
based on such stories alone.

99
00:06:49,980 --> 00:06:52,480
I hope to find a lead

100
00:06:52,560 --> 00:06:55,060
on the murderous thief,

101
00:06:55,730 --> 00:06:57,250
but as of yet...

102
00:06:57,730 --> 00:07:00,260
We need to hurry,
or else he'll flee Edo.

103
00:07:01,740 --> 00:07:06,050
At any rate, what he have in Edo now
is an inhuman fiend.

104
00:07:06,900 --> 00:07:09,660
Hikoju, Omasa, take no undue risks.

105
00:07:12,110 --> 00:07:14,890
Sanjiro! Otane!
Game fowl hotpot!

106
00:07:14,970 --> 00:07:16,440
Yes sir! Right away!

107
00:07:25,120 --> 00:07:27,650
Thank you for waiting.

108
00:07:27,730 --> 00:07:29,150
My, that was quick!

109
00:07:29,230 --> 00:07:30,540
It's bubbling hot.

110
00:07:31,410 --> 00:07:33,180
Please eat it right away.

111
00:07:33,440 --> 00:07:34,980
Thank you kindly.

112
00:07:39,180 --> 00:07:40,500
By the way,

113
00:07:40,880 --> 00:07:43,150
do you think that man can change?

114
00:07:46,110 --> 00:07:47,280
Kumehachi?

115
00:07:48,180 --> 00:07:51,410
Surely you won't use him
like you use us?

116
00:07:54,520 --> 00:07:58,570
Game fowl were originally
bred for fighting.

117
00:07:58,670 --> 00:08:00,600
So their meat is firm, and chewy.

118
00:08:00,690 --> 00:08:05,640
A good cook can bring out
its true flavor.

119
00:08:06,130 --> 00:08:08,060
Like you do with spies.

120
00:08:08,140 --> 00:08:09,090
I see your point.

121
00:08:09,170 --> 00:08:10,580
Hey hey hey.

122
00:08:10,660 --> 00:08:12,010
What are we, hotpot meat?

123
00:08:15,570 --> 00:08:17,750
I don't know about Kumehachi,

124
00:08:17,840 --> 00:08:21,570
but we have changed, thanks to you.

125
00:08:27,280 --> 00:08:29,660
Now that's flavorsome.

126
00:08:54,400 --> 00:08:56,480
Mother! Mother!

127
00:08:57,100 --> 00:08:58,780
That girl ain't here.

128
00:08:59,090 --> 00:09:00,200
Find her.

129
00:09:12,900 --> 00:09:14,200
What happened?

130
00:09:18,990 --> 00:09:20,490
She's dead already.

131
00:09:20,670 --> 00:09:21,870
Go.

132
00:09:31,554 --> 00:09:34,891
TANBE THE BLOODTHIRSTY

133
00:09:45,930 --> 00:09:47,370
Drink this.

134
00:09:54,300 --> 00:09:55,730
Did you hear them say

135
00:09:55,810 --> 00:09:57,150
anything else?

136
00:09:58,990 --> 00:10:00,490
I did.

137
00:10:02,510 --> 00:10:03,590
"Now,

138
00:10:04,190 --> 00:10:05,610
we can leave Edo."

139
00:10:05,690 --> 00:10:07,720
Now we can leave Edo.

140
00:10:08,200 --> 00:10:09,380
Listen, men.

141
00:10:09,480 --> 00:10:11,470
We'll gather at Shimada Post Town.

142
00:10:17,720 --> 00:10:19,450
Shimada Post Town?

143
00:10:20,700 --> 00:10:22,620
Yes, that's right.

144
00:10:30,350 --> 00:10:31,850
Shimada Post Town?

145
00:10:33,140 --> 00:10:34,620
He said that?

146
00:10:36,410 --> 00:10:37,980
Does it ring a bell?

147
00:10:38,840 --> 00:10:41,260
No, it doesn't.

148
00:10:46,740 --> 00:10:50,760
If it rings a bell,
is he the true Tanbe?

149
00:10:50,840 --> 00:10:52,040
He cannot be!

150
00:10:54,420 --> 00:10:55,820
Sir Hasegawa,

151
00:10:56,000 --> 00:10:59,870
please. I want to
tear off that fake's disguise!

152
00:11:00,700 --> 00:11:02,600
Please let me hunt him!

153
00:11:06,050 --> 00:11:08,440
And what will happen if you do?

154
00:11:09,330 --> 00:11:11,920
Umekichi of Ogawaya is still alive.

155
00:11:13,070 --> 00:11:15,490
He'll try to kill you.
No...

156
00:11:16,200 --> 00:11:19,730
Every thief will be your enemy.

157
00:11:24,930 --> 00:11:26,430
Sir Hasegawa.

158
00:11:27,770 --> 00:11:32,270
I no longer care
about my own survival.

159
00:11:34,380 --> 00:11:35,980
Once I've done what I must,

160
00:11:36,060 --> 00:11:37,520
I shall return.

161
00:11:38,320 --> 00:11:43,600
Then, with good grace,
I shall climb the gallows.

162
00:11:45,790 --> 00:11:46,990
Before I die...

163
00:11:48,770 --> 00:11:51,260
I shall repay my debt
to my old boss Tanbe,

164
00:11:54,099 --> 00:11:55,670
and to you, Sir Hasegawa.

165
00:11:56,770 --> 00:11:58,450
That is all I want.

166
00:12:01,140 --> 00:12:03,640
I only want to punish the fake

167
00:12:04,830 --> 00:12:06,860
impersonating Tanbe the Bloodthirsty!

168
00:12:15,790 --> 00:12:17,090
I beg you, sir.

169
00:12:20,860 --> 00:12:22,160
I beg you, sir!

170
00:13:03,900 --> 00:13:05,680
Shimada, on the Tokaido road,

171
00:13:06,220 --> 00:13:09,970
had long prospered,
as did its pleasure quarters.

172
00:13:11,180 --> 00:13:13,030
Traffic was heavy,

173
00:13:13,340 --> 00:13:14,700
so for thieves,

174
00:13:14,860 --> 00:13:18,590
the busy post town
was a perfect place to hide.

175
00:13:27,340 --> 00:13:29,140
Welcome, sir.
Please go in.

176
00:13:34,570 --> 00:13:36,130
We have a guest!

177
00:13:56,180 --> 00:13:57,900
Oh, you will visit Ise Shrine?

178
00:13:58,030 --> 00:13:59,130
I will.

179
00:14:03,760 --> 00:14:06,030
Till my companions catch up,

180
00:14:06,110 --> 00:14:08,860
I may stay here for a few days.

181
00:14:09,140 --> 00:14:10,770
Sure. Take your time.

182
00:14:13,880 --> 00:14:15,560
Here.

183
00:14:19,520 --> 00:14:20,810
By the way miss,

184
00:14:21,720 --> 00:14:23,830
do you know
Tanbe the Bloodthirsty?

185
00:14:24,480 --> 00:14:25,950
"Bloodthirsty"?

186
00:14:28,280 --> 00:14:29,850
No...

187
00:14:29,960 --> 00:14:32,450
What a rather terrifying name.

188
00:14:32,830 --> 00:14:35,610
That is merely what he calls himself.

189
00:14:37,210 --> 00:14:38,450
Oh my... More.

190
00:14:40,010 --> 00:14:41,580
A woman he knows

191
00:14:41,930 --> 00:14:43,570
used to work here in Shimada.

192
00:14:43,650 --> 00:14:46,350
He always visited after a big job.

193
00:14:49,180 --> 00:14:51,150
Sir, who are you?

194
00:14:52,190 --> 00:14:54,090
An acquaintance of his.

195
00:14:55,280 --> 00:14:56,770
If he's still alive,

196
00:14:58,030 --> 00:14:59,510
I'd love to see him.

197
00:15:00,750 --> 00:15:03,490
Miss, would you mind asking around?

198
00:15:03,570 --> 00:15:04,640
Sure.

199
00:15:10,360 --> 00:15:11,580
This tastes great.

200
00:15:11,790 --> 00:15:13,180
Thank you, sir.

201
00:15:14,280 --> 00:15:20,090
Maybe Kumehachi tricked our chief
into letting him escape.

202
00:15:20,270 --> 00:15:22,770
How could he with us watching?

203
00:15:23,060 --> 00:15:24,455
Why are you worried?

204
00:15:24,456 --> 00:15:26,010
If I'm wrong,

205
00:15:26,720 --> 00:15:29,740
maybe he's
letting loose and having fun.

206
00:15:30,620 --> 00:15:34,490
Either way, this post town
is crawling with prostitutes.

207
00:15:35,000 --> 00:15:36,270
Does that mean...

208
00:15:36,650 --> 00:15:37,890
you envy him?

209
00:15:38,770 --> 00:15:40,730
You want to have fun too?

210
00:15:40,810 --> 00:15:42,170
I never said that!

211
00:15:43,100 --> 00:15:45,180
I hope you don't think it.

212
00:15:45,260 --> 00:15:47,160
- I do think it.
- You do?!

213
00:15:47,520 --> 00:15:50,890
Ono Juzo had no idea about having fun.

214
00:15:51,140 --> 00:15:52,830
That's why he died!

215
00:15:52,910 --> 00:15:54,910
How is that relevant?

216
00:15:54,990 --> 00:15:57,820
Thieves are to blame for Juzo's death.

217
00:15:59,370 --> 00:16:01,890
Kumehachi was part of their gang.

218
00:16:07,550 --> 00:16:10,740
Heizo sent three men to Shimada,

219
00:16:11,100 --> 00:16:12,820
three to the next town, Fujieda,

220
00:16:13,480 --> 00:16:16,040
and four to Oigawa beyond that,

221
00:16:16,880 --> 00:16:20,380
preparing them to wait for
word from Kumehachi.

222
00:16:27,320 --> 00:16:32,670
"Blo-od-thir-sty"?

223
00:16:33,250 --> 00:16:37,330
Yeah. A guy who took care of me.

224
00:16:37,450 --> 00:16:40,820
We stayed here a few years ago.

225
00:16:41,160 --> 00:16:42,750
Is that so?

226
00:16:44,220 --> 00:16:47,600
I haven't been here long,
so the past is...

227
00:16:47,940 --> 00:16:49,060
Oh yeah?

228
00:16:50,170 --> 00:16:54,190
It's just, if he's still alive,
I'd love to see him.

229
00:16:54,270 --> 00:16:57,310
Would you mind asking around for me?

230
00:16:57,390 --> 00:16:59,260
Sure. Leave it to me.

231
00:17:01,630 --> 00:17:03,350
Come on, drink, drink.

232
00:17:04,720 --> 00:17:07,800
Getting me drunk so early?
What on earth for...?

233
00:17:15,760 --> 00:17:19,160
I'm... free tonight.

234
00:17:20,190 --> 00:17:21,520
If you'd like.

235
00:17:22,030 --> 00:17:27,650
However, little progress was made,
and the days passed by.

236
00:17:27,820 --> 00:17:30,490
What? Tanbe robbed another place?

237
00:17:30,570 --> 00:17:33,210
Yes. In Shibaguchi 2-chome.

238
00:17:33,440 --> 00:17:35,930
Maruya, a seller of books.

239
00:17:36,140 --> 00:17:39,680
Tanbe the Bloodthirsty
is still in Edo...

240
00:17:40,080 --> 00:17:44,220
The thing is, this time,
something was different.

241
00:17:44,300 --> 00:17:45,310
What?

242
00:17:46,250 --> 00:17:49,660
Maruya doesn't know
when the robbery occurred.

243
00:17:51,040 --> 00:17:52,050
Chief,

244
00:17:52,740 --> 00:17:54,640
what on earth...

245
00:18:02,990 --> 00:18:06,730
- Thanks sir.
- Come back soon.

246
00:18:06,810 --> 00:18:08,360
Sure. Let me know, yeah?

247
00:18:08,440 --> 00:18:09,940
We will.

248
00:18:19,720 --> 00:18:20,980
Kumehachi.

249
00:18:21,060 --> 00:18:22,780
Enough playing around.

250
00:18:23,240 --> 00:18:26,799
Why, sirs?
Have you been watching me?

251
00:18:26,800 --> 00:18:30,260
Of course. Our chief
hasn't let you off.

252
00:18:30,560 --> 00:18:31,730
I know that.

253
00:18:32,660 --> 00:18:34,110
No you don't!

254
00:18:34,360 --> 00:18:38,190
You've only been
living it up with prostitutes!

255
00:18:38,270 --> 00:18:39,950
Give it a rest already!

256
00:18:40,160 --> 00:18:41,720
Sir, does that mean...

257
00:18:42,980 --> 00:18:44,530
you're jealous of me?

258
00:18:45,640 --> 00:18:46,640
What?

259
00:18:48,220 --> 00:18:49,710
You're all messed up!

260
00:18:49,790 --> 00:18:51,450
I'm not messed up.

261
00:18:51,660 --> 00:18:55,130
If I live it up like this,
he'll come to me.

262
00:18:55,210 --> 00:18:56,380
Can we trust you?

263
00:18:57,070 --> 00:18:59,790
Boss Tanbe is a cautious man.

264
00:19:00,070 --> 00:19:03,450
If he hears somebody's looking for him,

265
00:19:03,530 --> 00:19:04,920
he won't ignore it.

266
00:19:05,940 --> 00:19:07,200
Kumehachi,

267
00:19:07,450 --> 00:19:09,441
who's your boss now?

268
00:19:10,050 --> 00:19:11,670
Better not forget.

269
00:19:12,650 --> 00:19:14,120
I won't forget.

270
00:19:16,900 --> 00:19:19,650
If anybody sees us talking here,

271
00:19:19,760 --> 00:19:22,010
it'll ruin everything.

272
00:19:22,610 --> 00:19:24,760
Now gimme room, gimme room.

273
00:19:25,780 --> 00:19:31,010
I've been going to whorehouses
every day, so I've barely slept.

274
00:19:31,640 --> 00:19:34,260
I'll rest at my lodging,
if you don't mind.

275
00:19:36,910 --> 00:19:38,460
That swine...

276
00:19:39,090 --> 00:19:41,380
He won't get away with this!

277
00:19:43,950 --> 00:19:45,460
Chugo.

278
00:19:45,730 --> 00:19:47,250
You're messed up.

279
00:19:48,300 --> 00:19:50,630
Why not rest here?

280
00:19:54,940 --> 00:19:57,130
Why not rest here? Please.

281
00:20:15,250 --> 00:20:16,690
Sir Hasegawa!

282
00:20:17,060 --> 00:20:19,310
Off to the baths?

283
00:20:19,390 --> 00:20:20,390
Oh... Yes.

284
00:20:20,470 --> 00:20:23,260
Good. I may as well join you.

285
00:20:34,430 --> 00:20:37,040
There's something you need to know.

286
00:20:37,810 --> 00:20:38,810
What's that?

287
00:20:40,220 --> 00:20:43,410
Your old boss Tanbe
struck in Edo again.

288
00:20:44,430 --> 00:20:45,780
What?! Edo again?

289
00:20:45,890 --> 00:20:46,890
However, this time,

290
00:20:48,020 --> 00:20:51,130
his methods were slightly different.

291
00:20:52,220 --> 00:20:53,810
His methods were different?

292
00:20:56,940 --> 00:21:00,240
He hit a bookseller in Shibaguchi

293
00:21:00,320 --> 00:21:03,060
called Maruya.

294
00:21:11,390 --> 00:21:14,980
Neither the couple who own it

295
00:21:15,370 --> 00:21:17,400
nor their staff were hurt.

296
00:21:18,730 --> 00:21:24,320
What's more, no one was
aware they were being robbed.

297
00:21:26,500 --> 00:21:29,530
Only 25 ryo was taken.

298
00:21:30,080 --> 00:21:31,860
And as usual, a wooden tag

299
00:21:31,940 --> 00:21:35,480
with Tanbe's name was left.

300
00:21:36,860 --> 00:21:38,090
The true Tanbe!

301
00:21:38,170 --> 00:21:39,240
I'm sure of it.

302
00:21:39,320 --> 00:21:41,840
The true Boss Tanbe did it!

303
00:21:41,920 --> 00:21:43,910
- Are you sure?
- Very sure!

304
00:21:44,600 --> 00:21:46,880
The fake Tanbe's vicious acts

305
00:21:46,960 --> 00:21:49,290
must have angered the true Tanbe.

306
00:21:49,880 --> 00:21:52,980
He had to show the world
how a true thief operates!

307
00:21:54,360 --> 00:21:55,850
Kumehachi.

308
00:21:56,170 --> 00:21:59,320
You have great faith
in Tanbe the Bloodthirsty, don't you?

309
00:22:00,350 --> 00:22:01,410
I do.

310
00:22:02,720 --> 00:22:06,810
Anyone would,
if they knew my true master...

311
00:22:17,690 --> 00:22:18,860
Kumehachi!

312
00:22:21,580 --> 00:22:25,780
You have the gall
to call yourself a thief?!

313
00:22:26,610 --> 00:22:29,700
You are no follower of mine!

314
00:22:34,030 --> 00:22:35,750
I'm sorry about this.

315
00:22:40,740 --> 00:22:42,300
Listen to me, Kumehachi.

316
00:22:45,230 --> 00:22:47,680
I leave these tags behind on purpose

317
00:22:48,160 --> 00:22:50,050
to show I'm a proud thief.

318
00:22:51,140 --> 00:22:53,460
You brought shame upon my name!

319
00:22:54,250 --> 00:22:55,930
Get outta my sight!

320
00:22:57,120 --> 00:22:58,120
Boss...

321
00:23:03,920 --> 00:23:06,030
A proud thief...

322
00:23:14,276 --> 00:23:17,070
Ah... This is delicious.

323
00:23:17,970 --> 00:23:19,120
Drink, sir.

324
00:23:23,950 --> 00:23:25,390
Sir Hasegawa...

325
00:23:27,160 --> 00:23:30,720
I happened to hear
a strange rumor...

326
00:23:31,010 --> 00:23:32,340
What is it?

327
00:23:33,160 --> 00:23:36,610
I heard that you took in a child.

328
00:23:37,280 --> 00:23:39,780
Might it be a thief's child?

329
00:23:40,330 --> 00:23:43,219
A thief named Sukejiro,
Umekichi's pal...

330
00:23:43,220 --> 00:23:46,370
No such thing in this world
as a thief's child.

331
00:23:47,000 --> 00:23:49,370
Is anyone born a thief?

332
00:23:52,760 --> 00:23:55,210
My wife Hisae and I

333
00:23:55,920 --> 00:23:59,760
simply wanted to adopt
an adorable baby.

334
00:24:08,970 --> 00:24:11,160
What a lovely day,

335
00:24:12,100 --> 00:24:13,370
Ojun.

336
00:24:17,210 --> 00:24:19,330
That child has found happiness.

337
00:24:22,800 --> 00:24:24,320
As for me...

338
00:24:25,370 --> 00:24:27,040
I never knew my parents.

339
00:24:27,900 --> 00:24:29,810
Where were you born?

340
00:24:30,380 --> 00:24:32,560
Well, I don't know that either.

341
00:24:34,740 --> 00:24:37,260
Up on a snowy mountain range,

342
00:24:37,970 --> 00:24:43,570
I lived with an old woman I called
"Granny." That's all I remember.

343
00:24:44,850 --> 00:24:49,420
When we couldn't live there
anymore, we set off

344
00:24:49,530 --> 00:24:51,610
on a long journey together.

345
00:25:00,800 --> 00:25:02,320
I was starving,

346
00:25:03,360 --> 00:25:04,990
and thoroughly exhausted,

347
00:25:05,740 --> 00:25:07,950
but she dragged me along.

348
00:25:15,600 --> 00:25:17,920
The warmth I felt
as I held her hand desperately

349
00:25:18,900 --> 00:25:26,410
is what I remember most,
clearly, to this day.

350
00:25:29,980 --> 00:25:32,120
What I remember almost as much...

351
00:25:32,460 --> 00:25:34,670
Granny!

352
00:25:34,890 --> 00:25:36,880
Granny!

353
00:25:37,000 --> 00:25:41,260
is Granny collapsing,
and me clinging to her and wailing.

354
00:25:42,600 --> 00:25:45,560
Granny!

355
00:25:45,680 --> 00:25:48,500
Granny!

356
00:25:48,820 --> 00:25:50,620
Granny!

357
00:25:51,170 --> 00:25:53,360
"Granny!"

358
00:26:00,980 --> 00:26:02,680
I was all alone,

359
00:26:03,800 --> 00:26:06,280
and overwhelmed by hunger...

360
00:26:07,140 --> 00:26:08,690
"Such hunger...

361
00:26:32,300 --> 00:26:33,770
From then on,

362
00:26:33,870 --> 00:26:36,170
I wandered from domain to domain."

363
00:26:38,840 --> 00:26:41,800
I was sold to a traveling freakshow,

364
00:26:42,830 --> 00:26:44,670
which I ran away from.

365
00:26:47,310 --> 00:26:50,200
I ended up turning to crime,

366
00:26:50,340 --> 00:26:52,410
though I don't need to tell you that.

367
00:26:55,170 --> 00:26:57,390
When I met Boss Tanbe,

368
00:26:58,250 --> 00:27:01,940
I felt, for the first time in my life,

369
00:27:03,460 --> 00:27:06,130
what it was like to have a father.

370
00:27:09,450 --> 00:27:12,920
Being disowned by him
was my greatest disgrace.

371
00:27:13,840 --> 00:27:18,190
That was the end...
of what little luck I had.

372
00:27:21,340 --> 00:27:22,760
Kumehachi.

373
00:27:23,050 --> 00:27:24,600
Let's make a bet.

374
00:27:25,900 --> 00:27:26,960
A bet?

375
00:27:28,200 --> 00:27:30,830
Whether this Tanbe the Bloodthirsty

376
00:27:30,920 --> 00:27:32,820
is true or fake.

377
00:27:34,770 --> 00:27:37,040
Isn't that why you're here?

378
00:27:37,480 --> 00:27:39,620
I think he's the true Tanbe.

379
00:27:40,290 --> 00:27:41,790
That cannot be!

380
00:27:42,360 --> 00:27:46,550
True or fake,
that's for no one to decide...

381
00:27:47,520 --> 00:27:49,010
but you yourself.

382
00:27:50,370 --> 00:27:51,890
Don't forget that.

383
00:27:53,680 --> 00:27:55,350
Now, over to you.

384
00:28:15,550 --> 00:28:16,980
Excuse me, sir.

385
00:28:17,470 --> 00:28:18,600
What?

386
00:28:20,800 --> 00:28:23,080
Someone wants to see you.

387
00:28:24,640 --> 00:28:26,822
- That person there?
- What?

388
00:28:27,437 --> 00:28:30,020
Oh! Oh, yes...

389
00:28:30,370 --> 00:28:31,780
Who is there?

390
00:28:35,700 --> 00:28:37,150
Well done, Kumehachi.

391
00:28:38,720 --> 00:28:40,220
Boss!

392
00:28:40,300 --> 00:28:43,108
I'm coming in.
Bring sake.

393
00:28:47,370 --> 00:28:51,060
I heard somebody was
asking about me here and there.

394
00:28:52,210 --> 00:28:54,910
I looked into it,
and found it was you.

395
00:28:55,660 --> 00:28:57,280
Kumehachi of Kobusa.

396
00:28:57,690 --> 00:28:59,370
How long's it been?

397
00:28:59,890 --> 00:29:01,790
15 years.

398
00:29:03,670 --> 00:29:05,720
Indeed, it is so good to see you.

399
00:29:05,800 --> 00:29:07,340
What's this about?

400
00:29:07,420 --> 00:29:11,580
Well... Boss,
you've come back from Edo?

401
00:29:11,790 --> 00:29:13,160
How do you know?

402
00:29:13,710 --> 00:29:19,540
I heard that Maruya, a bookseller
in Shibaguchi, had been robbed.

403
00:29:20,208 --> 00:29:25,270
Maruya? That wasn't me.
I never robbed it. Don't know it.

404
00:29:26,133 --> 00:29:27,415
What?

405
00:29:28,290 --> 00:29:30,370
Sure you're not confused?

406
00:29:31,560 --> 00:29:34,812
Well, the thing is,
only 25 ryo was taken,

407
00:29:34,813 --> 00:29:36,810
without killing, accosting,

408
00:29:36,890 --> 00:29:38,890
or alerting the occupants.

409
00:29:38,970 --> 00:29:40,240
What the hell?

410
00:29:40,320 --> 00:29:42,000
That's ridiculous.

411
00:29:43,310 --> 00:29:45,310
You see, Kumehachi,

412
00:29:46,120 --> 00:29:48,330
I'm not the Tanbe you knew.

413
00:29:49,600 --> 00:29:50,770
Boss...

414
00:30:07,490 --> 00:30:11,150
As times change, so does a man.

415
00:30:13,330 --> 00:30:15,600
Old ways become outdated.

416
00:30:16,680 --> 00:30:18,433
Young men don't accept them.

417
00:30:20,480 --> 00:30:22,690
Non-violent thievery is for fools.

418
00:30:22,820 --> 00:30:26,230
How else can you steal?

419
00:30:26,700 --> 00:30:27,730
But Boss...

420
00:30:28,850 --> 00:30:32,060
I hear wooden tags
were left like you used to do.

421
00:30:32,140 --> 00:30:38,510
That's because I wanted people
to think I wouldn't steal like that.

422
00:30:39,500 --> 00:30:40,520
It's a way...

423
00:30:41,400 --> 00:30:42,620
of deceiving them.

424
00:30:46,520 --> 00:30:49,910
I never thought you'd fall for it too.

425
00:30:52,300 --> 00:30:55,620
The old me was just
too proud to face reality.

426
00:30:56,700 --> 00:30:57,770
Kumehachi,

427
00:30:58,110 --> 00:30:59,440
do you remember?

428
00:31:00,430 --> 00:31:03,340
There was a thief called
Kinosuke the Mirage.

429
00:31:04,650 --> 00:31:07,540
At times I thought
I wanted to be like him,

430
00:31:08,370 --> 00:31:10,270
but I saw the light and gave up.

431
00:31:11,180 --> 00:31:15,540
Kumehachi, you knew better
than I did back then.

432
00:31:16,810 --> 00:31:17,970
Boss...

433
00:31:18,210 --> 00:31:24,470
How about it? Let bygones be bygones,
and return to your old home?

434
00:31:25,080 --> 00:31:26,580
What do you mean...?

435
00:31:26,670 --> 00:31:28,990
Come back and rejoin my gang.

436
00:31:29,410 --> 00:31:32,670
You're here because you want that.

437
00:31:32,750 --> 00:31:35,050
I couldn't wish for more.

438
00:31:35,130 --> 00:31:37,160
Good. Let's work together.

439
00:31:37,410 --> 00:31:39,460
Another robbery in Edo?

440
00:31:39,540 --> 00:31:41,500
No, this time it's Kyoto.

441
00:31:41,770 --> 00:31:45,640
I won't hold you back.
Have your way with women.

442
00:31:52,250 --> 00:31:56,700
Tomorrow night, around 9,
near the 7-chome riverbank,

443
00:31:56,790 --> 00:31:59,734
go to a tobacco store
called Mikuraya.

444
00:32:00,480 --> 00:32:02,737
That's my current hideout.

445
00:32:05,460 --> 00:32:07,710
Show this to the lookout.

446
00:33:03,010 --> 00:33:04,030
His signal.

447
00:33:17,450 --> 00:33:18,450
Excuse me!

448
00:33:38,700 --> 00:33:40,000
Hey, Kumehachi.

449
00:33:40,970 --> 00:33:42,600
Oh, it's you, buddy.

450
00:33:44,720 --> 00:33:46,910
Drink with me, buddy.

451
00:33:47,050 --> 00:33:48,730
Don't call me "buddy."

452
00:33:48,900 --> 00:33:51,260
Have a drink already.

453
00:33:51,760 --> 00:33:53,260
It's on me.

454
00:33:54,360 --> 00:33:57,310
You idiot!
Who's letting you drink?!

455
00:33:58,340 --> 00:34:03,770
Hey. Never mind that,
any leads on Tanbe yet?!

456
00:34:08,060 --> 00:34:09,020
What?

457
00:34:09,100 --> 00:34:10,500
What's so funny?

458
00:34:11,470 --> 00:34:15,500
You had so much fun,
you caught some nasty sickness?

459
00:35:04,440 --> 00:35:09,340
Chief, word from Kumehachi.
He finally snagged Tanbe.

460
00:35:09,420 --> 00:35:10,210
What?

461
00:35:10,211 --> 00:35:13,310
He'll go to see him tomorrow night.

462
00:35:13,390 --> 00:35:14,740
How was Kumehachi?

463
00:35:14,830 --> 00:35:18,250
He was...
extremely drunk.

464
00:35:18,440 --> 00:35:22,580
Constantly laughing to himself.
Tears welling up in his eyes.

465
00:35:24,620 --> 00:35:27,790
It's a nasty sickness...
No, nasty alcohol!

466
00:35:30,560 --> 00:35:35,070
It might very well be...
a trap laid by him.

467
00:35:47,500 --> 00:35:50,865
"I'm not the Tanbe you knew."

468
00:35:51,720 --> 00:35:55,100
As times change, so does a man.

469
00:35:55,490 --> 00:36:01,330
"Non-violent thievery is for fools.
How else can you steal?"

470
00:36:40,060 --> 00:36:41,410
Who are you?

471
00:37:22,860 --> 00:37:25,710
Boss! Mister Kobusa is here.

472
00:37:26,460 --> 00:37:27,630
Enter.

473
00:37:40,040 --> 00:37:41,680
So, you made it.

474
00:37:47,790 --> 00:37:48,716
This is yours.

475
00:37:49,010 --> 00:37:51,520
Keep it. It's good quality.

476
00:37:51,950 --> 00:37:53,420
Thank you.

477
00:37:53,510 --> 00:37:57,860
Now, like old times, let's make a pact.

478
00:38:02,720 --> 00:38:04,180
We're all ready.

479
00:38:04,720 --> 00:38:08,820
We have 50 reinforcements
waiting at Oigawa.

480
00:38:09,260 --> 00:38:12,080
All there is to do
is wait for Kumehachi.

481
00:38:16,650 --> 00:38:21,270
This is an old protege of mine,
Kumehachi of Kobusa.

482
00:38:21,580 --> 00:38:23,020
Treat him well.

483
00:38:26,300 --> 00:38:28,500
I look forward to working with you.

484
00:38:30,780 --> 00:38:32,980
Uh-oh, I knew I recognized you.

485
00:38:43,040 --> 00:38:45,907
Of all people, it's you, Kumehachi.

486
00:38:47,070 --> 00:38:48,340
Umekichi...

487
00:38:48,420 --> 00:38:50,600
Umekichi, you know him?

488
00:38:51,045 --> 00:38:55,470
I don't just know him.
A while back, me and him

489
00:38:55,550 --> 00:38:58,170
were part of Yahei the Worm's gang.

490
00:38:58,250 --> 00:38:59,980
Oh, is that so?

491
00:39:00,570 --> 00:39:05,620
That Yahei the Worm...
got caught by Onihei though.

492
00:39:06,270 --> 00:39:07,760
Right, Kumehachi?

493
00:39:11,150 --> 00:39:13,050
Ain't it strange, Kumehachi?

494
00:39:14,530 --> 00:39:16,560
I thought you were caught too.

495
00:39:17,630 --> 00:39:18,690
What?

496
00:39:19,100 --> 00:39:20,980
So why is it...

497
00:39:21,950 --> 00:39:23,450
only you're still alive?

498
00:39:25,240 --> 00:39:26,750
Why are you here?

499
00:39:29,710 --> 00:39:30,840
Why, dammit?!

500
00:39:32,520 --> 00:39:34,940
Why come to Shimada from Edo,

501
00:39:35,240 --> 00:39:38,370
and sniff around for Boss Tanbe?!

502
00:39:44,080 --> 00:39:45,860
Kumehachi's taking his time.

503
00:39:48,570 --> 00:39:49,570
We're going in.

504
00:39:53,720 --> 00:39:55,050
What's wrong?

505
00:39:56,030 --> 00:39:57,620
Cat got your tongue?

506
00:39:59,770 --> 00:40:00,880
Kumehachi.

507
00:40:02,720 --> 00:40:06,440
Don't tell me...
you've set me up?

508
00:40:08,100 --> 00:40:09,260
Boss.

509
00:40:10,210 --> 00:40:11,859
For a joke, that's too harsh.

510
00:40:13,120 --> 00:40:17,031
Are you accusing me
of being one of Onihei's spies?

511
00:40:18,170 --> 00:40:19,710
You better not be.

512
00:40:22,660 --> 00:40:26,090
You really have lost your touch, Boss.

513
00:40:27,950 --> 00:40:29,450
The truth is...

514
00:40:31,000 --> 00:40:32,640
you're dead right.

515
00:40:37,870 --> 00:40:39,690
Tanbe the Bloodthirsty...

516
00:40:41,200 --> 00:40:42,560
Prepare to die!

517
00:41:11,660 --> 00:41:13,160
Boss!

518
00:41:25,930 --> 00:41:27,430
Die!

519
00:41:31,320 --> 00:41:35,120
Chief robbery investigator,
Hasegawa Heizo!

520
00:41:35,690 --> 00:41:37,070
Onihei...

521
00:41:38,830 --> 00:41:40,810
Tanbe the Bloodthirsty.

522
00:41:42,890 --> 00:41:46,080
Sir Hasegawa,
that's Umekichi of Ogawaya.

523
00:42:01,780 --> 00:42:03,310
Umekichi of Ogawaya,

524
00:42:03,980 --> 00:42:06,750
think of this as Ono Juzo's sword.

525
00:42:07,700 --> 00:42:09,200
Feel its sting!

526
00:42:34,520 --> 00:42:35,469
Arrest them!

527
00:42:44,300 --> 00:42:48,110
Curse you, Kumehachi...
You dirty spy!

528
00:42:49,410 --> 00:42:50,530
Dirty?

529
00:42:51,620 --> 00:42:53,810
Yeah, I'm dirty.

530
00:42:56,120 --> 00:42:57,330
Let's go!

531
00:43:08,040 --> 00:43:09,460
Kumehachi...

532
00:43:10,530 --> 00:43:13,930
Fool, you'd sacrifice yourself
to kill him?!

533
00:43:15,960 --> 00:43:17,380
Treasure your life!

534
00:43:20,020 --> 00:43:21,348
Sir Hasegawa...

535
00:43:21,349 --> 00:43:22,850
Don't act on your own,

536
00:43:23,730 --> 00:43:25,152
ever again!

537
00:43:40,320 --> 00:43:41,440
Kumehachi.

538
00:43:43,220 --> 00:43:49,040
Was the man who was here
undoubtedly... the true Tanbe?

539
00:43:58,410 --> 00:43:59,420
No...

540
00:44:00,360 --> 00:44:01,810
He was a fake.

541
00:44:03,600 --> 00:44:05,250
He is truly a fake...

542
00:44:45,130 --> 00:44:46,270
The next day,

543
00:44:46,480 --> 00:44:51,810
Hasegawa took Kumehachi
with him to Edo, before his men.

544
00:44:53,520 --> 00:44:57,490
Kumehachi, I received word
from Edo this morning.

545
00:44:57,860 --> 00:45:00,310
Tanbe has struck again.

546
00:45:02,740 --> 00:45:05,452
He entered Maruya in Shibaguchi again,

547
00:45:05,453 --> 00:45:09,690
and this time,
he returned the 25 ryo he took.

548
00:45:10,100 --> 00:45:13,220
What's more,
without anyone knowing.

549
00:45:14,890 --> 00:45:16,540
Indeed, a true thief

550
00:45:16,740 --> 00:45:19,500
can be worthy of admiration.

551
00:45:22,180 --> 00:45:24,350
Who on earth could it be?

552
00:45:28,620 --> 00:45:33,850
FAMOUS SHELL-COOKED
TURBAN SHELLFISH

553
00:45:37,380 --> 00:45:38,890
- It's cooked.
- Got it!

554
00:45:41,640 --> 00:45:43,461
Thanks. Here's your money.

555
00:45:43,462 --> 00:45:44,880
Thank you!

556
00:45:47,780 --> 00:45:49,900
- For you, sir.
- Much obliged.

557
00:45:56,530 --> 00:45:57,660
What is it?

558
00:45:58,280 --> 00:46:00,800
Sir Hasegawa, would you...

559
00:46:00,890 --> 00:46:02,840
look the other way for now?

560
00:46:24,490 --> 00:46:26,330
Oh! What the heck?
We meet again.

561
00:46:27,700 --> 00:46:29,200
Still alive, huh?

562
00:46:35,720 --> 00:46:37,280
Boss Kinosuke,

563
00:46:38,040 --> 00:46:39,390
did you come from Edo?

564
00:46:39,470 --> 00:46:40,570
Sure did.

565
00:46:40,750 --> 00:46:43,010
I'm on my way back to Kyoto.

566
00:46:43,730 --> 00:46:45,690
I thought you were retired.

567
00:46:47,450 --> 00:46:50,120
I didn't go to do a job, dummy.

568
00:46:51,840 --> 00:46:53,340
Then again...

569
00:46:59,310 --> 00:47:02,210
I did pull off a little Edo mischief.

570
00:47:03,150 --> 00:47:04,240
Mischief?

571
00:47:06,430 --> 00:47:09,920
You heard about some guy

572
00:47:10,410 --> 00:47:13,070
- impersonating Tanbe the Bloodthirsty?
- I did.

573
00:47:13,570 --> 00:47:16,560
For my old pal Tanbe's sake,

574
00:47:18,840 --> 00:47:22,300
I put on a display
of how a real thief works,

575
00:47:23,720 --> 00:47:26,180
to give the world a reminder.

576
00:47:39,660 --> 00:47:44,980
Hey, these days, thieves are all
cold-blooded killers, and I hate it.

577
00:47:45,890 --> 00:47:47,260
I see...

578
00:47:50,100 --> 00:47:54,200
I think... this was probably
my last trip to Edo.

579
00:47:55,240 --> 00:47:56,740
From now on...

580
00:47:57,700 --> 00:47:59,700
you guys can do as you please.

581
00:48:02,280 --> 00:48:03,780
Thank you!

582
00:48:15,780 --> 00:48:18,810
Cooked turban shellfish
for two, please.

583
00:48:18,890 --> 00:48:20,770
- Sir Hasegawa!
- I know.

584
00:48:20,980 --> 00:48:22,700
I'm looking the other way.

585
00:48:25,560 --> 00:48:27,140
Thank you so much!

586
00:48:30,090 --> 00:48:31,540
What was his name?

587
00:48:32,650 --> 00:48:34,300
Kinosuke the Mirage.

588
00:48:35,240 --> 00:48:37,060
Kinosuke the Mirage...

589
00:48:38,930 --> 00:48:42,560
A long time ago,
I think we might have met.

590
00:48:44,610 --> 00:48:46,680
Thieves aren't like him anymore.

591
00:48:46,880 --> 00:48:47,910
Indeed.

592
00:48:49,190 --> 00:48:52,560
He never accosts women,
or kills,

593
00:48:53,530 --> 00:48:55,710
or steals from the poor.

594
00:48:59,770 --> 00:49:03,650
True thieves like him
are most likely extinct now.

595
00:49:06,940 --> 00:49:08,440
The thing is, Kumehachi,

596
00:49:09,630 --> 00:49:11,720
I don't mind looking the other way,

597
00:49:12,400 --> 00:49:17,480
but Sakai and my men will soon
bring Tanbe through here to Edo.

598
00:49:18,920 --> 00:49:25,290
When Kinosuke the Mirage
sees the arrested fake Tanbe,

599
00:49:26,270 --> 00:49:27,770
what will he think?

600
00:50:21,550 --> 00:50:23,610
If he had pride as a thief,

601
00:50:24,500 --> 00:50:26,010
he's thrown it in the dirt.

602
00:50:28,140 --> 00:50:29,820
That rotten bastard.

603
00:50:40,360 --> 00:50:44,090
It seems I won our bet, Kumehachi.

604
00:50:45,050 --> 00:50:46,050
You did.

605
00:50:46,980 --> 00:50:50,960
Therefore, as my spy,
you must go on living.

606
00:50:54,460 --> 00:50:55,502
You hear me?

607
00:50:56,760 --> 00:50:58,560
You must change.

608
00:51:01,780 --> 00:51:02,860
Sir Hasegawa...

609
00:51:12,900 --> 00:51:13,900
I shall...

610
00:51:15,060 --> 00:51:17,050
not place faith
in fakes ever again.

611
00:51:19,580 --> 00:51:20,750
From now on...

612
00:51:22,370 --> 00:51:24,520
I shall only
focus on those who are true.

613
00:51:26,900 --> 00:51:28,270
I shall change!

614
00:52:41,570 --> 00:52:42,630
That...

615
00:52:43,630 --> 00:52:46,570
young fella was with a samurai...

616
00:52:47,780 --> 00:52:50,170
Did I meet him somewhere?

617
00:52:54,510 --> 00:52:55,930
Ah, who cares?
