EPISODE 14: OSAKA

The Sanada army crushed a huge
Tokugawa army at Ueda Castle.

It was one of two battles at Ueda.

But during this battle, Genjiro
lost his beloved wife, Ume.

ECHIGO - KASUGAYAMA CASTLE

I heard about your wife.

How unfortunate.

It was.

You chose her.

I'm sure she was a wise woman.

The important aspects
of living as a samurai...

I learned from my wife.

Anything I say...

won't alleviate your sadness.

Do you want to stay
a while longer at Ueda?

You can come back when you feel like it.

I appreciate the thought,
but as a matter of fact,

I will think about it less here.

Is that right?

In that case...

Suit yourself.

Thank you for your consideration.

I must say,

that battle with the Tokugawa
was brilliantly fought.

Yes. My father's strategy
was amusingly successful.

Repelling an army of 7,000
with 2,000 was remarkable.

Masayuki was at his best.

HAMAMATSU CASTLE

How could you...

let the Sanada get the best of you!

I'm very sorry!

Lord.

I have a request.

Let me command the next battle.

I will take Sanada Masayuki's
head without fail.

Make full preparations.

This time, for sure...

eradicate the Sanada!

The Tokugawa?

They are rebuilding Sunpu Castle,

UEDA CASTLE

as a base for their Shinano invasion.

The Tokugawa are annoyingly persistent.

This battle... will be drawn out.

Maybe not.

Nobutada will come up with something.

Wait a minute.

Uncle is being held captive.

He will still come up with something.

That's the amazing part about him.

Sir Ishikawa.

It's happening as you predicted.

Then?

The Sanada won.

Sir Tokugawa will not just sit back.

He's already sent aid to Komoro.

ISHIKAWA KAZUMASA

You saw through everything.

Is it time... for what we discussed?

Shock waves passed through the Tokugawa.

Ishikawa Kazumasa,
a long time key vassal, defects.

He betrayed the Tokugawa
to join Hashiba Hideyoshi.

Ishikawa Kazumasa has
defected to Hideyoshi.

Who did you say?

Ishikawa Kazumasa.

Why?

Why, you ask?

I don't know.

The defection of Kazumasa,
who knew the Tokugawa's secrets,

threw Ieyasu into depths of anxiety.

Ieyasu, fearing an attack by Hideyoshi,

immediately halted battling the Sanada

and withdrew from Shinano.

The Tokugawa have withdrawn their army.

So it appears.

What will happen next...

to Shinano and Kozuke?

Sir Genjiro.

I understand how you feel.

But let's move forward.

The world is moving.

You have no time to pause.

For the sake of the Sanada
and the Uesugi...

Let's think of what we can do.

Moving forward...

does not mean to forget
Lady Ume.

I wish Ume could've seen this scenery.

-Sir Genjiro!
-You don't know how I feel!

I hadn't given her
a single happy memory yet!

Sorry.

-I was out of line.
-No, you weren't.

You are right, Sanjuro.

I know that...

I can't put my life on hold forever.

That, I do know.

Meanwhile, Ieyasu was in constant fear.

He's paranoid that Hideyoshi
might invade any day now.

He doesn't eat and only stares at the map.

That is a problem.

Even when he's sleeping,

he yells, "Monkey is coming!"

He has nightmares.

Poor man.

What's going on?

Lord!

Go out in the garden!

That day, a great earthquake
in excess of magnitude 7.0,

hit Kinki and Central Japan.

The Kinki region suffered
the greatest damage.

As a result, Hideyoshi
emphasized recovery,

and abruptly stopped fighting with Ieyasu.

Ieyasu escaped his greatest crisis.

Nobutada.

What is it?

I heard you were behind
Ishikawa Kazumasa's defection.

The guard saw you meeting
with Kazumasa here.

A few times, too.

You worked on Kazumasa while in prison,

and placed me in crisis.

That's impressive.

My lord wants to

employ you as a vassal.

Use your wisdom for me.

And if I refuse?

You will naturally be...

I am Sanada Masayuki's younger brother.

I am aware of that.

I could pretend to serve you,

but be in secret contact with my brother.

I am aware of that, too.

Then there's no reason for me to decline.

Sanada Nobutada was employed by Tokugawa.

1586, SPRING

Hashiba Hideyoshi.

In the Battle of Shizugatake,
he defeated Shibata Katsuie.

In the Battle of Komaki-Nagakute,
he made peace with the Tokugawa.

He built an enormous castle in Osaka,

and had become Regent the year prior.

Having subjugated most of Japan,
Hideyoshi was now in line

with the Genji and the Heike,
taking the name Toyotomi.

He also demanded the lords pay homage,

and pledge loyalty to him.

ODAWARA CASTLE

We received another letter from Hideyoshi.

I won't go to Kyoto.

How shall I respond?

If he wants to meet...

then tell him to come here.

And if he does come, will you meet him?

I'll capture and behead him.

I'm only seeing him...

from the neck up.

-Go to Kyoto?
-Hideyoshi's order.

That's strange.

You're not even a daimyo lord.
Why would Hideyoshi do that?

The Uesugi or the Hojo, I can see.

But you're not a daimyo. Why would he?

He's up to something.

-You're not a daimyo...
-Enough!

Forgive me.

The Sanada won fame after
beating the Tokugawa.

Just when we got rid of the
Tokugawa, it's Hideyoshi now.

What a problem.

What shall we do?

Let's see... what should we do?

Allying with Hideyoshi may be good.

Ieyasu withdrew once but it's
obvious that he'll invade again.

To suppress Ieyasu, it's best
to have Hideyoshi's power.

But by siding with Hideyoshi,

we could lose our lands and castles.

All our efforts thus far
would've been for naught.

What is Hideyoshi like?

Is he really capable of
succeeding Nobunaga?

I can't say for sure yet.

But currently he is the most powerful.

That is without doubt.

I've made up my mind.

Let's postpone it and watch the situation.

We had a bad time under Nobunaga.

We're going to play it safe this time.

How do we respond?

The Hojo is still aiming for Numata.

Until that is resolved,
I cannot leave Ueda.

Respond as such.

Will do.

I'm going to see Hideyoshi.

Does that mean you're
becoming his subject?

No.

The Uesugi have always
been close to Hideyoshi.

It's to maintain that relationship.

The Uesugi will not yield to anyone.

Now... or ever.

Genjiro, would you like to go with me?

To Osaka?

Osaka is thriving after
the castle was built.

It'll broaden your perspective.

All right?

Yes.

Genjiro!

Sir Naoe.

I wanted to talk to you, too.

To me?

About the trip to Osaka.

I appreciate the lord's consideration,

but to be honest, right now,

I'm not in the mood for it.

I hope you didn't take what
he said earlier, seriously.

What do you mean?

I guess we have no other option.

Hideyoshi is assuring us
our fief in Echigo.

If we defy Hideyoshi,
we will lose everything.

Do we become Hideyoshi's subjects?

It's to protect the Uesugi.

If we ally with Hideyoshi, the Tokugawa
and the Hojo can't readily attack.

We will have time
to rebuild our province.

Did he put on a good front again?

It's a painful decision.

It's hard on the lord, too.

That is why I want you to go to Osaka.

The lord considers you a son.

Will you stay by him?

In that case, I will.

Genjiro will be going to Osaka.

Genjiro is?

He's accompanying
Uesugi Kagekatsu to see Hideyoshi.

Luck is turning my way.

Let's put him to work.

Meaning?

He can find out Hideyoshi's
real intention.

How is Monkey planning
to treat the Sanada?

Can Genjiro manage?

He's good at gaining people's confidence.

I'm sure Hideyoshi will take fancy to him.

In hindsight,

it was good we sent Genjiro
as a hostage to the Uesugi.

Kagekatsu must really like Genjiro.

He is a useful man.

Genjiro will be going to Osaka.

Father ordered Genjiro
to feel out Hideyoshi.

Father thinks highly of
my younger brother.

That's fine, too.

I'm not as small-minded
as to envy Genjiro.

But why assign it to Genjiro,
when I'm here?

Why does Father ignore me
and go to Genjiro?

And as usual, I'm kept out of the loop.

Mother?

Mother!

You should say something!

Before I could, you started talking.

Please forget what you heard.

I was only joking.

What do you think?

It might be too difficult
for Kiri, after all.

What is that about?

It's about Sue.

Kiri insists on raising her.

It's not going smoothly.

Sue's been crying all day.

Sue, why won't you go to sleep?

Crying doesn't tell me anything.

I'm at a complete loss.

I can't handle this.

It's impossible.

It's beyond me!

Sue, do you want to help?

In the end, Ume's child, Sue...

was raised by Sakubei.

Please let me accompany you.

I'd feel safe with you around,
but I already decided on it.

Go to Yoritsuna.

Father can manage.

Considering his age,
he can't push himself forever.

Be of support to him.

The Hojo's invasion on
Numata hasn't ended.

If you go to Osaka and
something happens,

you can't rush back in time.

You can serve me again
when I return.

Sir Genjiro!

It's you!

I'm glad I made it in time!

What are you doing here?

I'm here under Lord's order.

I'm to take care of you.

Don't lie.

I'm not lying. My father arranged it.

Why would he do that?

Maybe he's worried leaving you alone.

I'm going to Osaka.

I know. I'm going, too.

Don't be ridiculous! Go home!

-No! Not after I came from Ueda!
-I didn't ask you to come!

Hey. How long is this
going to continue?

I'm sorry. She's always pestering me.

What are you doing?

What are you doing?!

You seem to get along.

You may come along.

-Wait!
-Thank you!

Let's go.

KAGA - VICINITY OF KURIKARA PASS

Kagekatsu's procession
heading to Osaka...

traveled along the Sea of Japan
and entered Kaga.

What awaited them was...

I am Ishida Mitsunari.

ISHIDA MITSUNARI

Thank you for coming a long way.

Thank you for coming to greet us.

This is the least we can do
to welcome you.

The Regent wanted no mishaps to happen.

Please relax.

This is Genjiro, son of
the renown Sanada Masayuki.

I'm Sanada Genjiro Nobushige.

You'll spend a night here,
and leave tomorrow morning.

Your lodging in Kyoto
will be at Hyakumanben.

After a short stay there,
I'll escort you to Osaka.

Please enjoy the various
Kaga specialties tonight.

Please have some good
sake and rest.

Why aren't you allowed in the other room?

They've left you out.

Our status is different.

They have more dishes.

Stop staring.

Put that aside, and tell me about Sue.

She's getting cuter by the day.

She sometimes makes
the same expression as Ume.

I see.

I wanted to raise her,

but Ume's brother insisted.

That might be for the best.

She's in good hands with Sakubei.

The villagers are there, too.

I'm sure Ume will be protecting her, too.

What is the matter?

Don't mind me.

Is it all right?

That's how the Lord is.

Genjiro, come.

Yes.

I don't plan to succumb to Hideyoshi.

But Hideyoshi thinks I will.

He plans to make me his subject.

What do you think?

About what?

There's still time.

Shall we return to Echigo?

You're not going to meet
with Sir Hideyoshi?

No.

What will you say to Ishida
who came to greet you?

I'll kill him.

Lord.

I'm joking.

-It's the sake's influence.
-Yes, of course.

If I defy Hideyoshi,

it'll turn into a major battle.

I agree.

If we go to battle, the Uesugi will fall.

What Lord Kenshin built...
the province of Echigo and its people...

must be protected.

I understand your feelings very well.

I'm disgusted with myself.

Lord.

I talk about living for justice,
but my actions are contrary.

"Don't try to resist against
the tide" is what I'm doing.

Is this world...

that difficult to have
your way?

Genjiro.

Don't become like me.

Show there's justice in this world...

by the way you live.

Please achieve...

what I couldn't accomplish.

I will.

Then...

with peace of mind...

I can bow to Hideyoshi.

Kagekatsu's procession entered Kyoto.

KYOTO

I will be going ahead to Osaka.

I have to make the preparations.

Your efforts are appreciated.

Please wait.

What is it?

Why can't we go with you?
Osaka is just up ahead.

Lord Uesugi is here to
meet with the Regent.

Right.

Don't you get it?

I see. Going straight to Osaka
won't be paying homage.

-That is why we must stay in Kyoto.
-It makes sense, yet it doesn't.

There's more authority
by feigning homage.

If you will excuse me now.

For that matter...

when he summons
daimyo lords from the west,

do they bypass Osaka
and enter Kyoto once,

then head to Osaka?

Yes, of course.

What is with him?

There's something about him
that's offensive.

He's rigid but extremely sharp.

-He may not look it, but he's passionate.
-I can't tell.

Genjiro, may I have a word with you?

There's someone who
would like to see you.

See me? I don't know
anybody in Kyoto.

Who would've thought
that person would be here.

Sir Ishida must've arranged it.

Have you ever met
Ishikawa Kazumasa?

No, never.

The Tokugawa sent
assassins to seal my lips.

So I've been hiding here for half a month.

I see.

I was in charge of making peace
between my Lord and the Regent.

But my Lord severed ties with the Regent.

And they went to battle.

There was no place for me!

At such time...

Sanada Nobutada approached me.

-Isn't he your relative?
-He's my uncle.

He basically enticed me.

It's Sanada Masayuki's scheme.

Isn't he your father?

Yes, that's right.

In short,

I was conveniently used by the Sanada!

How devious!

If the Sanada hadn't enticed me,

I would've reconsidered!

I'm deeply indebted to the Tokugawa.

Isn't it your fault for being enticed?

Are you defending family?!

Not that, but in the end,
you made the decision.

You have no one but yourself to blame.

I know that!

I betrayed my lord.

After all he's done for me.

It's too late now.

You betrayed him.

It's not just you
that can't see into the future.

That is why we are all
living the best we can.

Trickery and betrayals will happen.

But...

they can't be measured as good or bad.

That's what I think.

Sir Ishikawa.

For now, let's move on.

All right.

Ishikawa Kazumasa will later
become a daimyo lord

under Hideyoshi with 100,000-koku
Shinano-Matsumoto as his fief.

OSAKA

I'm disgusted with myself for
being afraid to meet Hideyoshi.

In his eyes, I must be
a country bumpkin.

Have you forgotten that
he's originally a farmer?

That helped ease the tension.

The Regent is busy and cannot
meet with you today.

It'll be postponed to tomorrow.

Very well.

As for Lord Uesugi...

the Regent has ordered
a special reception.

You will be staying in Osaka Castle.

-Sir Naoe, you are invited as well.
-I am honored.

Sanada.

We've made separate lodging
arrangements in town for you.

-We will escort you there later.
-Thank you.

Nobushige was escorted
to Ishida Mitsunari's mansion.

We have daimyo lords coming
from all over the country.

Hence, accommodations
are full.

Please bear with this.

It is more than I can ask for.

I have a separate room for you.

-Follow me.
-Aren't I sharing his room?

Don't be ridiculous.

-Would you prefer to be together?
-Of course not!

Come.

This isn't a room where
someone would live in.

Thank you.

UTA, MITSUNARI'S WIFE

What kind of man is the Regent?

Does he really look like a monkey?

I do not know.

Have you not met him?

I've never seen a monkey.

Pardon me.

I don't think so!

Lower your voice. We have guests.

I have a naturally loud voice.

I don't want the lord to rise any higher.

I know how you feel, but in order to rule,

you need a court title.

I don't know how high a regent is, but

KATO KIYOMASA

it doesn't match our lord.

No matter how old he is,

he has to run about the fields with us.

That's the strength of Hashiba Hideyoshi.

Who cares about the regent title?!

But he's already Regent.

Just return the title.

You should return your court title first.

I don't want to.

-I like it.
-You're not making sense.

Kato Kazue-no-kami Kiyomasa.

I like the sound of it.

My mom was happy about it, too.

Hey, don't fall asleep there.

You promised to go home tonight.

Uta!

Again?

Call his escorts.

Sir Uesugi, please follow me.

Sir Naoe, come as well.

You wait here.

Please.

Sir Ishida.

I want to accompany...

No.

I haven't informed
the Regent about you yet.

You are...

Sanada something...

That is correct.

-Where are you from?
-Ueda.

-Never heard of it.
-It's in Shinano.

I once lived in Kiyosu Castle.

-Kiyosu Castle?
-Is it nearby?

You mean Ueda?

It's not close but it's
closer than from here.

What is it?

You're my type.

Chacha, stop that.

Goodbye.

The Regent is looking
forward to meeting you.

-Huh?
-Let's leave.

All right.

This naive young woman will
become Hideyoshi's concubine,

and would later bear his heir,

She would have a great impact
on Nobushige's life,

but that is down the road.

You're my type.

Excuse me.

Are you Sanada Genjiro?

Indeed.

The Regent will see you now.
Come this way.

This must be a mistake.

-You are Sanada Genjiro...
-Nobushige.

This is not what I was told.

There are reasons for this.
Now let's hurry.

I don't feel well.

Are you all right?

Please wait here for a while.

Is the Regent coming?

Wait here.

-Hey. Hurry.

END OF EPISODE 14

PREVIEW

Isn't Hideyoshi at the peak
of his momentum?

I won't become Hideyoshi's vassal.

For me?

If Hideyoshi likes you,

he'll want you
as a gentleman in waiting.

It'll become troublesome.

I've never seen anyone like him.

NEXT EPISODE: HIDEYOSHI
