{\an8}OTATSU'S FATHER, IBUKI ZEN'EMON
5
00:00:35,235 --> 00:00:37,670
{\an8}Otatsu, the young lord is here!
6
00:00:45,478 --> 00:00:46,513
Sir Kanbei!
7
00:00:50,016 --> 00:00:51,351
Please stop by later!
8
00:00:51,418 --> 00:00:53,453
For delicious rice cakes!
9
00:01:00,026 --> 00:01:00,860
Father!
10
00:01:06,900 --> 00:01:09,235
You can see all of Himeji from here.
11
00:01:10,303 --> 00:01:12,472
That side is Gochaku.
12
00:01:14,741 --> 00:01:16,109
That's Akamatsu's Tatsuno.
13
00:01:17,744 --> 00:01:20,113
Our Himeji is in the middle.
14
00:01:20,180 --> 00:01:21,414
{\an8}KURODA (KODERA) MOTOTAKA
15
00:01:21,481 --> 00:01:27,053
{\an8}Our duty is to protect
Gochaku from Akamatsu.
16
00:01:28,021 --> 00:01:28,988
Yes.
17
00:01:29,622 --> 00:01:34,027
Lord Kodera of Gochaku
wants you as an attendant.
18
00:01:36,296 --> 00:01:37,130
I know that.
19
00:01:38,398 --> 00:01:39,899
Do you understand what it means?
20
00:01:41,768 --> 00:01:46,206
Although we received the Kodera surname,
we are still outsiders.
21
00:01:46,773 --> 00:01:51,411
The lord doesn't trust us entirely.
22
00:01:52,879 --> 00:01:54,347
I'll be a hostage.
23
00:01:55,014 --> 00:01:56,182
I am prepared.
24
00:01:56,249 --> 00:01:58,451
Don't jump the gun. Listen to the end.
25
00:01:59,052 --> 00:02:00,353
That's your bad habit.
26
00:02:02,956 --> 00:02:03,890
Listen.
27
00:02:04,524 --> 00:02:09,529
The Gochaku vassals
have strong hereditary ties.
28
00:02:10,530 --> 00:02:16,002
For us outsiders to survive,
we must work harder.
29
00:02:17,170 --> 00:02:18,004
Yes.
30
00:02:18,738 --> 00:02:22,075
A warning. Don't be self-assertive.
31
00:02:23,009 --> 00:02:25,812
The nail that sticks out gets hammered.
32
00:02:28,114 --> 00:02:29,015
I'll keep that in mind.

{\an8}LORD KODERA MASAMOTO
60
00:05:36,102 --> 00:05:40,907
{\an8}You look sharp like your father.
61
00:05:40,973 --> 00:05:43,309
Isn't that right, Sakyonosuke?
62
00:05:43,376 --> 00:05:44,243
Yes, sir.
63
00:05:46,579 --> 00:05:48,014
{\an8}I'm Kushihashi Sakyonosuke.
64
00:05:48,081 --> 00:05:48,948
{\an8}KUSHIHASHI SAKYONOSUKE
65
00:05:49,015 --> 00:05:51,951
{\an8}I met you when you were a toddler.
66
00:05:53,252 --> 00:05:54,153
You've grown up well.
67
00:05:55,054 --> 00:05:58,358
I'm incompetent, so please
give me guidance.
68
00:05:58,424 --> 00:06:00,259
You needn't worry.
69
00:06:01,227 --> 00:06:06,766
His son, Sakyonoshin,
is also my attendant.
70
00:06:07,266 --> 00:06:10,036
{\an8}Sakyonoshin, train him well.
71
00:06:10,103 --> 00:06:10,937
{\an8}Yes, sir.
72
00:06:11,003 --> 00:06:13,272
{\an8}KUSHIHASHI SAKYONOSHIN
73
00:06:17,777 --> 00:06:20,980
{\an8}MORI BUHEI
74
00:06:27,220 --> 00:06:28,688
- Kanbei!
- Yes?
75
00:06:29,489 --> 00:06:31,190
I've heard a lot about you.
76
00:06:31,891 --> 00:06:33,826
Your family sold eye medicine.
77
00:06:33,893 --> 00:06:37,530
You're the third-generation head
for the Kuroda family.
78
00:06:38,498 --> 00:06:39,432
Yes.
79
00:06:40,666 --> 00:06:44,937
Most of the Gochaku
key vassals are relatives.
80
00:06:45,838 --> 00:06:48,975
My father, Sakyonosuke,
is the lord's cousin.
81
00:06:49,575 --> 00:06:51,944
Tanabe here is of the Kodera lineage.
82
00:06:52,779 --> 00:06:55,181
You are the only outsider.
83
00:06:56,182 --> 00:06:58,384
Work hard at your job.
84
00:07:02,088 --> 00:07:03,923
What was that about?
85
00:07:03,990 --> 00:07:05,224
Don't let it bother you.
86
00:07:12,665 --> 00:07:14,834
Every day at this hour,
87
00:07:14,901 --> 00:07:17,203
light this lantern first.
88
00:07:17,270 --> 00:07:18,104
Yes.
89
00:07:20,673 --> 00:07:21,541
It's the Lady.
90
00:07:36,522 --> 00:07:38,191
{\an8}KODERA MASAMOTO'S WIFE, OKON
91
00:07:38,257 --> 00:07:39,926
{\an8}You're new.
92
00:07:41,127 --> 00:07:43,729
My name is Kanbei.
I am honored to meet you.
93
00:07:44,997 --> 00:07:46,432
Work hard.
94
00:08:13,159 --> 00:08:15,094
I lose.
95
00:08:15,761 --> 00:08:17,597
You're good, Kanbei.
96
00:08:17,663 --> 00:08:18,865
Thank you very much.
97
00:08:20,166 --> 00:08:23,069
Mototaka wouldn't beat me though.
98
00:08:25,771 --> 00:08:28,241
Don't bite the hand that feeds you.
99
00:08:35,748 --> 00:08:37,149
I am only joking.
100
00:08:38,317 --> 00:08:41,220
Let's play another game.
101
00:08:41,954 --> 00:08:43,055
Yes.
102
00:08:58,604 --> 00:08:59,972
Did you summon me?
103
00:09:00,039 --> 00:09:00,873
Yes.
104
00:09:02,842 --> 00:09:06,679
I have business to tend to.
105
00:09:07,947 --> 00:09:10,917
Keep Okon company.
106
00:09:12,251 --> 00:09:13,085
Yes, sir.
107
00:09:15,988 --> 00:09:19,692
Okon, I'm leaving now.
108
00:09:20,493 --> 00:09:22,194
Please be careful.
109
00:09:23,262 --> 00:09:24,830
Please be careful!
110
00:09:40,846 --> 00:09:43,182
How happy he looks.
111
00:09:50,122 --> 00:09:52,358
Do you know where the lord went?
112
00:09:53,693 --> 00:09:54,527
No.
113
00:09:56,095 --> 00:09:57,563
To his concubine.
114
00:09:58,197 --> 00:10:00,366
He should honestly say so.
115
00:10:01,534 --> 00:10:05,338
He prefers younger women.
116
00:10:05,404 --> 00:10:09,342
I'm aware of it.
117
00:10:11,277 --> 00:10:13,980
He is being considerate.
118
00:10:17,850 --> 00:10:21,253
The fireflies look beautiful
only when you're young.
119
00:10:22,355 --> 00:10:24,824
At a closer look,
it's just a dirty insect.
120
00:10:26,225 --> 00:10:27,059
Well…
121
00:10:31,831 --> 00:10:36,002
Aren't you Mototaka's son?
122
00:10:36,569 --> 00:10:37,403
That's right.
123
00:10:37,937 --> 00:10:39,839
In short, a hostage.
124
00:10:42,308 --> 00:10:43,142
Yes.
125
00:10:44,110 --> 00:10:46,212
I am also a hostage.
126
00:10:47,513 --> 00:10:53,452
I married the lord as proof
of my father's loyalty.
127
00:10:55,921 --> 00:10:57,323
It was the same for my mother.
128
00:10:59,792 --> 00:11:01,093
Was?
129
00:11:01,761 --> 00:11:03,696
She died of illness.
130
00:11:13,673 --> 00:11:16,842
Fireflies live 20 days, cicadas for three.
131
00:11:18,377 --> 00:11:20,513
Life is short.
132
00:11:24,150 --> 00:11:26,018
How strange…
133
00:11:27,553 --> 00:11:29,522
That dirty insect
134
00:11:30,823 --> 00:11:35,294
looks so beautiful from afar.
135
00:11:40,966 --> 00:11:43,636
TATSUNO CASTLE - 1562
136
00:11:43,703 --> 00:11:45,271
The following year,
137
00:11:45,838 --> 00:11:51,744
{\an8}Lord Akamatsu Masahide of Tatsunoinvaded Kodera territory.
138
00:11:51,811 --> 00:11:52,878
{\an8}ISHIKAWA GENGO
139
00:11:53,979 --> 00:11:54,847
Alright!
140
00:11:54,914 --> 00:11:56,982
It's finally time!
141
00:11:57,049 --> 00:12:01,420
I promised my father I would
not disgrace the Kuroda name.
142
00:12:02,955 --> 00:12:04,623
- I'm ready, Buhei!
- Young Lord!
143
00:12:04,690 --> 00:12:06,225
- Let's go!
- Alright!
144
00:12:09,395 --> 00:12:13,432
This was Kanbei's first battle.
145
00:12:20,673 --> 00:12:21,907
Otatsu!
146
00:12:22,641 --> 00:12:23,542
Here they come.
147
00:12:24,110 --> 00:12:26,345
{\an8}KANBEI'S GRANDFATHER, KURODA SHIGETAKA
148
00:12:40,359 --> 00:12:41,260
Sir Kanbei!
149
00:13:00,980 --> 00:13:04,450
Mototaka, where is the enemy?
150
00:13:05,017 --> 00:13:10,189
The enemy's van, about 200,
is 2.5 miles west by the mountain.
151
00:13:11,357 --> 00:13:13,359
Led by Ishikawa Gengo.
152
00:13:14,426 --> 00:13:16,028
Ishikawa, huh?
153
00:13:16,095 --> 00:13:17,963
That traitor!
154
00:13:18,864 --> 00:13:23,702
Lord, please let me be van!
155
00:13:23,769 --> 00:13:25,304
Refrain, Sakyonoshin!
156
00:13:25,371 --> 00:13:28,607
Your duty is to stay
near the lord and protect him!
157
00:13:28,674 --> 00:13:30,743
Please make an exception!
158
00:13:30,810 --> 00:13:35,247
I'll take the enemy's head
for sure this time!
159
00:13:35,314 --> 00:13:37,082
- Please!
- Refrain!
160
00:13:37,149 --> 00:13:38,384
Let him!
161
00:13:38,450 --> 00:13:41,987
Sakyonoshin! I admire your spirit!
162
00:13:42,855 --> 00:13:45,391
- Fight bravely!
- Yes, sir!
163
00:13:45,457 --> 00:13:48,828
Your son is promising!
164
00:13:50,329 --> 00:13:54,867
Let us teach that Akamatsu a lesson!
165
00:13:58,637 --> 00:13:59,772
Off to battle!
166
00:14:11,116 --> 00:14:12,718
Watch, Kanbei.
167
00:14:13,953 --> 00:14:15,721
I'll show you how it is in battle.
168
00:14:17,890 --> 00:14:18,724
Kanbei.
169
00:14:20,626 --> 00:14:23,395
Fulfill your duties well.
170
00:14:24,263 --> 00:14:25,130
Certainly.
171
00:14:40,212 --> 00:14:41,180
Shoot!
172
00:14:48,454 --> 00:14:49,555
Attack!
173
00:15:01,100 --> 00:15:01,934
Sakyonoshin!
174
00:15:06,472 --> 00:15:07,606
What's going on?
175
00:15:07,673 --> 00:15:11,076
I believe we have the edge.
176
00:15:11,143 --> 00:15:14,480
Lord! This was my playground as a child!
177
00:15:14,546 --> 00:15:15,981
I'll be the lookout!
178
00:15:16,048 --> 00:15:17,549
All right! Go!
179
00:15:18,717 --> 00:15:19,952
Yes, sir!
180
00:15:38,037 --> 00:15:39,238
You're trembling.
181
00:15:40,773 --> 00:15:42,141
You, too.
182
00:15:42,207 --> 00:15:45,077
It's from excitement.
183
00:15:48,013 --> 00:15:48,914
Sakyonoshin!
184
00:15:55,487 --> 00:15:57,890
Ishikawa Gengo, prepare to die!
185
00:16:00,592 --> 00:16:01,493
Withdraw!
186
00:16:11,003 --> 00:16:12,371
Attack!
187
00:16:21,647 --> 00:16:23,182
Withdraw!
188
00:16:24,416 --> 00:16:26,285
After them!
189
00:16:28,854 --> 00:16:30,622
They're being lured.
190
00:16:36,628 --> 00:16:38,197
- It's a trap!
- Trap?
191
00:16:38,263 --> 00:16:40,299
{\an8}If half advances and half retreats,
they're luring you.
192
00:16:40,366 --> 00:16:43,335
{\an8}- Buhei, warn the lord!
- Okay.
193
00:16:44,403 --> 00:16:45,571
Hurry!
194
00:16:57,983 --> 00:16:59,251
They're here!
195
00:17:01,887 --> 00:17:02,955
Shoot!
196
00:17:06,125 --> 00:17:07,626
Retreat!
197
00:17:08,260 --> 00:17:09,695
After them!
198
00:17:12,865 --> 00:17:14,333
Retreat!
199
00:17:17,603 --> 00:17:19,338
Damn!
200
00:17:21,473 --> 00:17:22,508
Father!
201
00:17:23,976 --> 00:17:24,977
This is a trap!
202
00:17:25,044 --> 00:17:27,780
Sakyonoshin is pursuing them
without realizing it!
203
00:17:27,846 --> 00:17:28,981
What?
204
00:17:29,048 --> 00:17:30,449
That fool!
205
00:17:30,516 --> 00:17:31,650
We must save him!
206
00:17:31,717 --> 00:17:35,821
Wait! A careless move
could get us killed, too!
207
00:17:35,888 --> 00:17:37,022
But we can't abandon him!
208
00:17:37,089 --> 00:17:38,290
I know of a secret path!
209
00:17:38,357 --> 00:17:39,691
Secret path?
210
00:17:39,758 --> 00:17:41,226
- Lead the way!
- Yes, sir!
211
00:17:53,639 --> 00:17:54,573
Sakyonoshin!
212
00:17:55,908 --> 00:17:56,875
Is that Kanbei?
213
00:18:00,746 --> 00:18:01,914
Kanbei! Stay back!
214
00:18:03,215 --> 00:18:04,583
Attack!
215
00:18:37,583 --> 00:18:38,517
Kanbei!
216
00:18:39,318 --> 00:18:41,019
- Stay by me!
- Okay.
217
00:18:49,094 --> 00:18:50,662
Retreat!
218
00:18:54,566 --> 00:18:56,935
The enemy is fleeing!
219
00:18:59,037 --> 00:19:00,873
It's our victory!
220
00:19:11,817 --> 00:19:16,021
I did it. I distinguished myself.
221
00:19:16,088 --> 00:19:17,122
Fool!
222
00:19:17,789 --> 00:19:22,761
If it weren't for Kanbei,
you would be dead now!
223
00:19:35,908 --> 00:19:37,743
Mind your own business.
224
00:19:39,178 --> 00:19:40,546
Lowly eye medicine dealer.
225
00:19:54,860 --> 00:19:56,128
Kanbei.
226
00:19:58,997 --> 00:19:59,898
Let's go.
227
00:20:02,434 --> 00:20:03,268
Yes.
228
00:20:17,950 --> 00:20:21,553
You did very well for your first battle.
229
00:20:22,054 --> 00:20:26,725
But I was useless in actual combat.
230
00:20:27,259 --> 00:20:30,429
If it weren't for Uncle,
I would be dead now.
231
00:20:30,495 --> 00:20:34,333
With experience,
232
00:20:34,399 --> 00:20:37,903
you'll be as strong as your uncle.
233
00:20:37,970 --> 00:20:39,605
I couldn't come close.
234
00:20:39,671 --> 00:20:41,707
Don't be weak-kneed.
235
00:20:42,307 --> 00:20:44,343
As the heir to Himeji Castle,
236
00:20:44,409 --> 00:20:47,012
you have to distinguish yourself.
237
00:20:47,646 --> 00:20:49,181
What does a woman know about battles!?
238
00:20:49,248 --> 00:20:51,383
It's not just me.
239
00:20:51,450 --> 00:20:56,121
Everyone in Himeji wanted you
to distinguish yourself.
240
00:20:56,188 --> 00:21:01,126
Who wanted him
to come home safely even without
241
00:21:01,193 --> 00:21:05,464
distinguishing himself?
242
00:21:06,832 --> 00:21:09,301
I don't know.
243
00:21:27,386 --> 00:21:28,754
I miss this view!
244
00:21:30,722 --> 00:21:34,426
You haven't returned to Himeji in a while.
245
00:21:36,895 --> 00:21:39,498
Are the conditions harsh as an attendant?
246
00:21:40,399 --> 00:21:44,202
I'm serving close to the lord.
It's not harsh.
247
00:21:44,269 --> 00:21:46,071
I'm proud of my job.
248
00:21:47,572 --> 00:21:52,210
For the young lord of Himeji
to work in Gochaku
249
00:21:53,312 --> 00:21:56,448
means you're a hostage.
250
00:21:57,149 --> 00:21:59,084
It's the fate of a samurai.
251
00:22:05,757 --> 00:22:08,627
But there are all kinds
of hostage situations.
252
00:22:09,361 --> 00:22:12,030
My late mother was a hostage.
253
00:22:12,097 --> 00:22:13,398
But she wasn't unhappy.
254
00:22:14,333 --> 00:22:17,302
Father was kind to her,
and everyone loved her.
255
00:22:17,369 --> 00:22:19,538
Though it was a short life,
256
00:22:19,604 --> 00:22:21,173
I'm sure she was happy.
257
00:22:23,975 --> 00:22:24,810
I agree.
258
00:22:39,725 --> 00:22:41,026
I didn't expect it to rain!
259
00:22:43,128 --> 00:22:45,063
It's like that time.
260
00:22:45,697 --> 00:22:46,531
What?
261
00:22:46,598 --> 00:22:48,033
Remember that time?
262
00:22:51,403 --> 00:22:55,040
Please make me your wife.
263
00:22:55,607 --> 00:22:56,975
I'll make you my wife.
264
00:23:17,129 --> 00:23:18,397
Forgive me.
265
00:23:32,577 --> 00:23:33,912
Are you cold?
266
00:24:19,491 --> 00:24:21,860
Caught a cold?
267
00:24:21,927 --> 00:24:25,130
You returned soaking wet.
Where did you go?
268
00:24:26,131 --> 00:24:28,400
- The beach.
- Beach?
269
00:24:29,568 --> 00:24:31,036
Why there?
270
00:24:32,170 --> 00:24:34,372
I just wanted to see the beach of Himeji.
271
00:24:42,180 --> 00:24:44,115
I'll be going, Grandfather.
272
00:24:44,182 --> 00:24:45,617
Come by again.
273
00:24:45,684 --> 00:24:46,585
I will.
274
00:24:54,226 --> 00:24:55,393
Who are you?
275
00:25:04,069 --> 00:25:05,003
Darn!
276
00:25:10,542 --> 00:25:12,811
Please pardon my rudeness.
277
00:25:13,979 --> 00:25:16,281
I'm Zensuke from Kuriyama Village.
278
00:25:18,116 --> 00:25:20,051
Why did you attack me?
279
00:25:20,852 --> 00:25:24,489
{\an8}I heard you were a wise man,
280
00:25:25,690 --> 00:25:29,561
but without military skills,
so I tested you.
281
00:25:30,395 --> 00:25:34,099
Please make me your vassal.
282
00:25:34,900 --> 00:25:41,306
The Kuroda look at talent,
not status, when they hire.
283
00:25:43,308 --> 00:25:47,479
I may be of humble birth,
284
00:25:47,546 --> 00:25:49,614
but I'll surely prove useful.
285
00:25:50,815 --> 00:25:54,553
Young Lord, I am worth a hundred men.
286
00:25:56,922 --> 00:25:59,324
What an interesting man.
287
00:25:59,391 --> 00:26:00,959
Make him your vassal.
288
00:26:01,026 --> 00:26:02,093
I can't.
289
00:26:02,160 --> 00:26:04,763
I don't have the means.
290
00:26:04,829 --> 00:26:07,332
Don't think short term.
291
00:26:08,033 --> 00:26:12,003
Don't lose the chance.
It may never come again.
292
00:26:12,571 --> 00:26:13,905
Please!
293
00:26:19,811 --> 00:26:21,646
Return to your village.
294
00:26:22,280 --> 00:26:24,816
No… I'm not giving up yet.
295
00:26:29,354 --> 00:26:31,289
You're worth a hundred men?
296
00:26:31,356 --> 00:26:32,524
Don't make me laugh!
297
00:26:34,526 --> 00:26:37,596
I just started.
It's only natural that I'm weak!
298
00:26:37,662 --> 00:26:41,166
Just wait! I'll become stronger than you!
299
00:26:41,833 --> 00:26:43,835
Stop talking big.
300
00:26:47,672 --> 00:26:49,407
NEAR MINO BORDER
301
00:26:49,474 --> 00:26:53,111
After unifying Owari,
302
00:26:53,178 --> 00:26:55,547
{\an8}Oda Nobunaga started his invasion on Mino
303
00:26:56,381 --> 00:27:00,285
by attacking Saito Tatsuoki'sInabayama Castle.
304
00:27:01,453 --> 00:27:02,287
However…
305
00:27:02,354 --> 00:27:03,254
Lord!
306
00:27:03,822 --> 00:27:06,891
Your life is in danger. Please withdraw.
307
00:27:14,532 --> 00:27:15,800
Let's retreat for now.
308
00:27:16,701 --> 00:27:17,936
Retreat!
309
00:27:22,307 --> 00:27:23,575
Lord!
310
00:27:30,548 --> 00:27:32,684
Lord, you're alive!
311
00:27:33,885 --> 00:27:37,656
Gonroku, are you that surprised I'm alive?
312
00:27:37,722 --> 00:27:40,325
{\an8}SHIBATA GONROKU KATSUIE
313
00:27:40,392 --> 00:27:41,860
{\an8}What are you suggesting?
314
00:27:42,894 --> 00:27:43,862
Never mind!
315
00:27:44,996 --> 00:27:46,665
We'll regroup and attack again!
316
00:27:47,565 --> 00:27:50,301
If I want to go to Kyoto and take command,
317
00:27:50,368 --> 00:27:52,404
I can't be struggling with Mino!
318
00:28:09,888 --> 00:28:12,290
Nobunaga fell into their trap.
319
00:28:13,525 --> 00:28:20,031
{\an8}The Saito army employedthe Ten Sided strategy.
320
00:28:20,098 --> 00:28:21,166
{\an8}ENCIRCLEMENT AMBUSH
321
00:28:21,232 --> 00:28:23,868
{\an8}The entire army lies in ambush.
322
00:28:23,935 --> 00:28:25,770
When the enemy invades,
323
00:28:25,837 --> 00:28:30,108
their escape route is cut off,and they attack full force.
324
00:28:31,843 --> 00:28:33,511
Protect the Lord!
325
00:28:44,956 --> 00:28:47,325
There's Oda Nobunaga!
326
00:29:00,739 --> 00:29:03,942
Brother, how do you feel?
327
00:29:04,008 --> 00:29:08,747
{\an8}NOBUNAGA'S BROTHER, ODA NOBUYUKI
328
00:29:22,293 --> 00:29:24,062
Oda Nobunaga!
329
00:29:32,704 --> 00:29:33,538
{\an8}NOBUNAGA'S MOTHER, DOTA GOZEN
330
00:29:33,605 --> 00:29:35,607
{\an8}Nobuyuki!
331
00:29:37,108 --> 00:29:39,377
How could you!?
332
00:29:40,845 --> 00:29:43,648
You're a demon!
333
00:29:47,552 --> 00:29:48,653
Nobuyuki…
334
00:29:50,455 --> 00:29:51,689
Do you want me to die?
335
00:29:57,762 --> 00:30:01,065
But I can't afford to die here!
336
00:30:03,535 --> 00:30:04,602
Lord!
337
00:30:06,504 --> 00:30:09,440
Lord, you're alive!
338
00:30:15,480 --> 00:30:16,714
Monkey?
339
00:30:18,016 --> 00:30:22,220
Lord, the enemy has retreated.
340
00:30:24,022 --> 00:30:25,089
What did you do?
341
00:30:26,090 --> 00:30:27,325
Please look there.
342
00:30:30,795 --> 00:30:33,164
These men live along Kiso River.
343
00:30:33,798 --> 00:30:37,168
{\an8}They prepared all the torches
and flags up there…
344
00:30:37,235 --> 00:30:38,069
{\an8}KINOSHITA TOKICHIRO
345
00:30:38,136 --> 00:30:40,638
{\an8}…to make it appear as if
the castle were attacked.
346
00:30:42,941 --> 00:30:45,543
I was afraid I may be too late…
347
00:30:47,045 --> 00:30:48,246
I'm happy to see you alive!
348
00:31:01,326 --> 00:31:02,727
- Monkey.
- Yes.
349
00:31:05,630 --> 00:31:10,602
Are you that happy I'm alive?
350
00:31:12,837 --> 00:31:16,841
I live for you!
351
00:31:29,053 --> 00:31:30,321
I lost this time.
352
00:31:31,356 --> 00:31:33,124
But I will get Mino!
353
00:31:35,226 --> 00:31:36,995
- Retreat.
- Yes, sir!
354
00:31:47,972 --> 00:31:49,641
What's wrong, Tokichiro?
355
00:31:50,375 --> 00:31:54,045
The Saito army has a brilliant strategist.
356
00:31:54,946 --> 00:31:55,947
Strategist?
357
00:31:57,148 --> 00:32:00,418
INABAYAMA CASTLE
358
00:32:00,485 --> 00:32:02,787
You got fooled by the torches and flags?
359
00:32:03,688 --> 00:32:05,390
The enemy is smart.
360
00:32:05,456 --> 00:32:07,158
Damn them!
361
00:32:07,225 --> 00:32:09,861
{\an8}We almost had Nobunaga!
362
00:32:09,928 --> 00:32:10,762
{\an8}LORD SAITO TATSUOKI OF INABAYAMA CASTLE
363
00:32:10,828 --> 00:32:13,998
We'll get him for sure the next time.
364
00:32:14,832 --> 00:32:15,700
Yes, do that.
365
00:32:15,767 --> 00:32:19,604
This man will guide Kanbei
366
00:32:19,671 --> 00:32:23,574
into becoming a strategist.
367
00:32:24,275 --> 00:32:27,545
{\an8}His name is Takenaka Hanbei.
368
00:32:27,612 --> 00:32:28,613
{\an8}TAKENAKA HANBEI
369
00:32:29,414 --> 00:32:31,649
In Harima,
370
00:32:31,716 --> 00:32:36,955
Kodera and Akamatsumade peace through Mototaka.
371
00:32:37,021 --> 00:32:38,356
KODERA MASAMOTO
AKAMATSU MASAHIDE
372
00:32:38,423 --> 00:32:41,960
However, Akamatsuwas secretly plotting an attack
373
00:32:42,026 --> 00:32:46,064
on the Uragami clan's Murotsu Castle.
374
00:32:47,532 --> 00:32:49,934
A messenger arrivedat Gochaku Castle one day
375
00:32:50,501 --> 00:32:55,139
with a request to forman alliance with Uragami.
376
00:32:55,206 --> 00:33:01,312
Lord, this is our golden
opportunity to gain an edge.
377
00:33:01,379 --> 00:33:05,850
That would be ideal.
378
00:33:07,118 --> 00:33:08,386
That's true.
379
00:33:08,453 --> 00:33:13,091
Wait. Don't decide in haste.
Isn't that so, Mototaka?
380
00:33:13,157 --> 00:33:13,992
Exactly.
381
00:33:14,058 --> 00:33:19,497
Allying with Uragami
will only anger Akamatsu.
382
00:33:19,564 --> 00:33:22,333
Mototaka, when did you become weak-kneed?
383
00:33:23,134 --> 00:33:26,704
Now is the time! We can't be sitting idle!
384
00:33:26,771 --> 00:33:31,743
{\an8}In these times, a truce means nothing.
385
00:33:33,578 --> 00:33:34,645
If I may humbly speak…
386
00:33:36,047 --> 00:33:39,817
Allying with Uragami
means war with Akamatsu.
387
00:33:39,884 --> 00:33:40,752
Kanbei!
388
00:33:40,818 --> 00:33:42,420
Let him speak.
389
00:33:43,955 --> 00:33:44,989
Go on.
390
00:33:45,590 --> 00:33:46,424
Yes, sir.
391
00:33:50,128 --> 00:33:52,864
The Uragami fief, Murotsu, faces the sea,
392
00:33:52,930 --> 00:33:54,966
and is a strategic sea route.
393
00:33:55,700 --> 00:33:57,368
If we ally with Uragami,
394
00:33:57,435 --> 00:34:00,471
Akamatsu will feel cornered and attack us.
395
00:34:00,538 --> 00:34:04,108
Novice! What do you know!?
396
00:34:05,043 --> 00:34:09,847
If we dally out of cowardice,
Akamatsu will take Harima!
397
00:34:09,914 --> 00:34:12,083
- But that would…!
- Refrain!
398
00:34:19,724 --> 00:34:22,093
Lord, what is your decision?
399
00:34:25,029 --> 00:34:29,567
You all have valid points.
400
00:34:32,770 --> 00:34:34,338
The decision is…
401
00:34:38,342 --> 00:34:42,713
very difficult to make.
402
00:34:50,488 --> 00:34:51,722
A month later,
403
00:34:52,323 --> 00:34:56,194
Kodera Masamoto decidedto ally with Uragami.
404
00:34:57,295 --> 00:35:01,866
The two families would be bondedthrough marriage.
405
00:35:03,501 --> 00:35:06,137
What's happening with the marriage
with Uragami?
406
00:35:06,204 --> 00:35:10,174
A princess from the Kodera relatives
407
00:35:10,241 --> 00:35:13,277
will be chosen as a bride.
408
00:35:14,312 --> 00:35:16,414
Just like me.
409
00:35:18,916 --> 00:35:23,788
That is the fate of a samurai's daughter.
410
00:35:29,427 --> 00:35:32,897
Kanbei, do you have a woman you love?
411
00:35:34,699 --> 00:35:35,766
What?
412
00:35:42,406 --> 00:35:45,643
If so, don't let her go.
413
00:35:46,844 --> 00:35:49,580
Or you'll regret it for life.
414
00:36:09,200 --> 00:36:10,268
Sir Kanbei.
415
00:36:12,703 --> 00:36:15,740
Otatsu… what are you doing?
416
00:36:17,074 --> 00:36:18,676
Cleaning.
417
00:36:24,215 --> 00:36:25,316
Do you have time?
418
00:36:25,883 --> 00:36:26,717
Yes.
419
00:36:33,791 --> 00:36:35,426
Did you hear?
420
00:36:37,428 --> 00:36:38,596
Hear what?
421
00:36:40,431 --> 00:36:42,733
Oh, Young Lord.
422
00:36:44,702 --> 00:36:46,804
- Otatsu.
- Yes.
423
00:36:54,645 --> 00:36:59,850
I talked with your father last night.
424
00:37:02,220 --> 00:37:07,658
Otatsu will be marrying
into the Uragami family.
425
00:37:10,861 --> 00:37:11,929
Otatsu…?
426
00:37:15,967 --> 00:37:19,570
She'll be adopted by Lord Mototaka.
427
00:37:21,138 --> 00:37:22,974
Then get married.
428
00:37:25,509 --> 00:37:31,148
Hearing that Gochaku
has no princess of suitable age…
429
00:37:31,215 --> 00:37:35,353
I asked from my side, to be of service.
430
00:37:37,588 --> 00:37:42,593
I think that would be best
for Otatsu, too.
431
00:37:45,763 --> 00:37:46,664
If…
432
00:37:48,499 --> 00:37:53,471
Even if Otatsu were to marry you,
433
00:37:54,572 --> 00:37:57,241
she wouldn't be fit for you.
434
00:37:59,076 --> 00:38:01,245
You are of different status.
435
00:38:03,914 --> 00:38:07,618
Otatsu will feel small.
436
00:38:11,255 --> 00:38:14,792
What did Otatsu say to it?
437
00:38:16,227 --> 00:38:23,000
She readily agreed to my request.
438
00:38:56,500 --> 00:38:57,635
Are you…
439
00:39:00,137 --> 00:39:01,005
sure?
440
00:39:03,674 --> 00:39:04,508
Yes.
441
00:39:06,043 --> 00:39:08,813
I'll be helping the Kuroda family
that I'm indebted to.
442
00:39:13,184 --> 00:39:18,723
You said even a hostage
could find happiness.
443
00:39:24,528 --> 00:39:26,764
I vow to become happy.
444
00:39:45,683 --> 00:39:49,019
The Uragami and Kodera
are forming an alliance.
445
00:39:49,887 --> 00:39:51,822
It's a matter of perspective.
446
00:39:53,090 --> 00:39:54,925
We won't be restrained now.
447
00:39:56,794 --> 00:40:00,631
We can demonstrate the Akamatsu power.
448
00:40:00,698 --> 00:40:04,769
But we've failed once.
449
00:40:04,835 --> 00:40:06,137
We must plan well.
450
00:40:08,739 --> 00:40:10,875
Who said anything about attacking Kodera?
451
00:40:16,247 --> 00:40:21,185
NEW YEAR'S 1564
452
00:41:09,934 --> 00:41:11,869
TATSUNO CASTLE
453
00:41:11,936 --> 00:41:12,937
MATSU
454
00:41:13,003 --> 00:41:16,674
Target Murotsu Castle!
455
00:41:18,342 --> 00:41:21,345
Their guard is down with the wedding!
456
00:41:22,046 --> 00:41:25,115
We'll crush the Uragami!
457
00:41:29,453 --> 00:41:34,925
MUROTSU CASTLE
458
00:41:53,277 --> 00:41:55,579
Young Lord!
459
00:41:57,147 --> 00:41:58,482
Young Lord!
460
00:42:01,418 --> 00:42:03,954
The Akamatsu army is headed for Murotsu!
461
00:42:13,130 --> 00:42:15,699
A flower's life is short.
462
00:42:17,034 --> 00:42:19,837
So is a human life.
463
00:42:25,209 --> 00:42:29,146
It was an era in whichonly the strong survived.
464
00:42:30,281 --> 00:42:36,720
{\an8}The people prayed for the wars to end.
465
00:42:36,787 --> 00:42:38,923
{\an8}END OF EPISODE 2
466
00:42:38,989 --> 00:42:42,159
We should raise an army
and crush Akamatsu.
467
00:42:42,226 --> 00:42:45,729
There aren't many men who live by duty.
468
00:42:45,796 --> 00:42:46,797
PREVIEW
469
00:42:46,864 --> 00:42:47,998

{\an8}Don't waste your life!
475
00:42:56,574 --> 00:42:58,175
{\an8}You're a disgrace!
476
00:42:58,242 --> 00:43:00,144
