Would you like to inspect the original subtitles? These are the user uploaded subtitles that are being translated:
1
00:00:05,405 --> 00:00:13,825
Lone Wolf and Cub
2
00:01:59,185 --> 00:02:00,129
Daddy!
3
00:02:02,822 --> 00:02:03,630
Daddy!
4
00:02:14,033 --> 00:02:14,900
Do you know what they mean?
5
00:02:14,901 --> 00:02:15,971
Do you know what they mean?
River!
6
00:02:17,270 --> 00:02:18,214
And the next one?
7
00:02:18,438 --> 00:02:19,212
Castle!
8
00:02:32,218 --> 00:02:34,892
The place where they're headed is
9
00:02:34,988 --> 00:02:39,960
where he once executed a feudal lord
as the executioner of the Shogunate.
10
00:02:41,461 --> 00:02:43,463
He has returned to this fateful place
11
00:02:43,530 --> 00:02:46,602
but as an assassin this time around.
12
00:02:47,233 --> 00:02:49,679
This is part of destiny.
13
00:02:50,236 --> 00:02:52,910
Extreme trials may be waiting ahead
14
00:02:53,039 --> 00:02:57,454
but ltto Ogami knows that this
hellish path cannot be avoided.
15
00:02:58,278 --> 00:03:03,250
Cloud Dragon, Wind Tiger
16
00:04:02,909 --> 00:04:04,217
�to Ogami...
17
00:04:23,296 --> 00:04:24,297
Four years...
18
00:04:25,231 --> 00:04:28,269
It's been four years since that day.
19
00:04:39,312 --> 00:04:40,052
Your Highness!
20
00:04:41,347 --> 00:04:45,261
Allow me to play this
bamboo flute before you die.
21
00:05:03,236 --> 00:05:06,979
Executioner for the Shogunate,
Lord ltto Ogami, has arrived.
22
00:05:19,719 --> 00:05:23,166
I am ltto Ogami.
Executioner for the Shogunate.
23
00:05:23,823 --> 00:05:26,326
I like the view from this place.
24
00:05:27,827 --> 00:05:30,137
So I asked for my execution
to take place here.
25
00:05:36,069 --> 00:05:38,675
Maybe a daimyo would
have committed hara-kiri
26
00:05:39,005 --> 00:05:41,383
at a place like this
during the time of war.
27
00:05:41,541 --> 00:05:43,782
I don't think anyone would
do it in the times we live now.
28
00:05:44,310 --> 00:05:47,052
But I have lived the life of a samurai.
29
00:05:47,847 --> 00:05:50,760
So it is my desire to die in battle.
30
00:05:51,951 --> 00:05:54,431
Therefore, it will be worth dying
31
00:05:54,587 --> 00:05:57,830
by spilling my blood on this grass.
32
00:05:58,624 --> 00:06:02,504
I thank you for granting my wish.
33
00:06:04,030 --> 00:06:08,308
By the way, can you
do me one more favor?
34
00:06:09,035 --> 00:06:10,981
And what might that be?
35
00:06:11,604 --> 00:06:14,608
I heard that ltto Ogami,
the executioner for the Shogunate
36
00:06:14,974 --> 00:06:17,147
is a master of the Suio-ryu.
37
00:06:18,211 --> 00:06:24,127
Can you show me your
wave-slashing technique?
38
00:06:24,984 --> 00:06:25,894
Who is my opponent?
39
00:06:26,853 --> 00:06:28,161
So...you will do it?
40
00:06:32,425 --> 00:06:33,699
Shogen!
41
00:06:34,560 --> 00:06:35,504
Yes?
42
00:06:35,862 --> 00:06:38,809
I want you to have
a duel with Lord Ogami.
43
00:06:39,198 --> 00:06:40,142
Yes.
44
00:06:43,002 --> 00:06:46,040
I'm Shogen Makabe,
head of the guards.
45
00:06:48,908 --> 00:06:49,978
Lord Ogami.
46
00:06:51,077 --> 00:06:53,387
Makabe is the master
of the Taisha-ryu
47
00:06:53,613 --> 00:06:55,991
and is said to be
the best in the clan.
48
00:06:56,816 --> 00:06:59,695
He is able to evade
the blade by a hairbreadth.
49
00:07:00,720 --> 00:07:03,428
I'm sure he'll fight by
using a real sword.
50
00:07:04,056 --> 00:07:06,161
You said a real sword?
51
00:07:08,161 --> 00:07:09,265
Correct.
52
00:07:18,070 --> 00:07:20,949
Lord Makabe, this is the time to
get revenge on the government.
53
00:07:21,007 --> 00:07:22,350
This may be your last chance!
54
00:07:22,475 --> 00:07:24,546
You understand how
our Highness feels, right?
55
00:07:24,610 --> 00:07:26,089
That despicable robe
with that emblem.
56
00:07:26,145 --> 00:07:28,853
Show your hatred towards
the Tokugawa. I'm counting on you.
57
00:07:29,849 --> 00:07:31,988
In order to counter the
wave-slashing technique
58
00:07:32,051 --> 00:07:34,861
you need to use the side position of
Taisha-ryu. Don't hold it over your head.
59
00:07:35,188 --> 00:07:36,758
Never hold your sword over your head!
60
00:08:09,856 --> 00:08:11,199
That's it, the wave-slashing technique!
61
00:08:11,257 --> 00:08:13,567
It's to confuse the distance
between his opponent.
62
00:08:29,542 --> 00:08:30,987
Have you gone mad?
63
00:09:05,778 --> 00:09:06,483
Lord Makabe!
64
00:09:07,480 --> 00:09:11,053
You knew very well that our Highness
wanted revenge on the government!
65
00:09:11,183 --> 00:09:12,526
Why didn't you go through with it?
66
00:09:12,852 --> 00:09:16,129
He was intensely sad
and wanted you to strike
67
00:09:16,222 --> 00:09:19,499
the executioner ltto Ogami
and his robe with the emblem.
68
00:09:19,692 --> 00:09:22,332
Don't tell me you didn't know!
69
00:09:22,495 --> 00:09:26,238
Taisha-ryu's side position could have
easily beat the wave-slashing technique.
70
00:09:26,299 --> 00:09:27,903
Why did you give up?
71
00:09:28,401 --> 00:09:30,381
If you used the Taisha-ryu's
secret technique
72
00:09:30,436 --> 00:09:32,245
you could have killed ltto Ogami!
73
00:09:32,838 --> 00:09:34,408
But why?
74
00:09:34,674 --> 00:09:36,051
Tell me why!
75
00:09:52,024 --> 00:09:56,097
You knew very well that our Highness
wanted revenge on the government!
76
00:09:56,295 --> 00:09:58,502
Why didn't you go through with it?
77
00:10:00,666 --> 00:10:04,113
Why did you raise your sword
over your head and just give up?
78
00:10:09,542 --> 00:10:11,522
Watch your step.
79
00:10:13,079 --> 00:10:14,990
Do you remember these rapids?
80
00:10:15,815 --> 00:10:17,556
It was four years ago...
81
00:10:21,821 --> 00:10:24,233
Our Highness committed
hara-kiri over there
82
00:10:24,523 --> 00:10:26,469
and you helped by decapitating him.
83
00:10:29,028 --> 00:10:30,871
I guess we fought
84
00:10:31,530 --> 00:10:33,032
right around there?
85
00:10:34,133 --> 00:10:37,512
Running water is never the same.
86
00:10:37,970 --> 00:10:42,077
There is no going back for a samurai.
87
00:10:42,842 --> 00:10:44,947
Live or die.
88
00:10:46,078 --> 00:10:48,319
I believe that's what life is.
89
00:10:49,315 --> 00:10:50,293
Excuse me.
90
00:10:53,486 --> 00:10:54,521
Wait!
91
00:11:02,028 --> 00:11:05,976
You're right. The water
is never the same.
92
00:11:06,632 --> 00:11:09,340
But my heart is just like
these ground cherries.
93
00:11:11,137 --> 00:11:12,810
As time passed by
94
00:11:14,073 --> 00:11:15,643
this single broken branch
95
00:11:16,375 --> 00:11:18,013
may have withered and dried up
96
00:11:18,177 --> 00:11:21,158
but even so, these
cherries have reddened.
97
00:11:22,448 --> 00:11:24,860
L, too, wanted to be just like them.
98
00:11:28,354 --> 00:11:30,265
Come visit me if you have the chance.
99
00:11:30,690 --> 00:11:31,634
Excuse me.
100
00:11:55,715 --> 00:11:56,750
Lord Ogami.
101
00:11:57,016 --> 00:11:58,359
Thank you for coming.
102
00:11:58,584 --> 00:12:00,894
Now, what did you want me for?
103
00:12:01,554 --> 00:12:04,160
I want you to kill a ronin.
104
00:12:05,658 --> 00:12:10,573
He lives by the Shinobu River
with a small farm
105
00:12:11,130 --> 00:12:14,737
and also fishes in
order to feed himself.
106
00:12:15,000 --> 00:12:18,106
Four years ago, his clan
in Arima was destroyed.
107
00:12:18,738 --> 00:12:20,376
A former vassal, Shogen Makabe.
108
00:12:21,040 --> 00:12:24,078
He's a master of Taisha-ryu and
now calls himself Ground Cherries.
109
00:12:24,510 --> 00:12:26,581
It's been four years since that day.
110
00:12:26,846 --> 00:12:29,292
Why do you want me to kill him now?
111
00:12:29,515 --> 00:12:31,859
I understand you have doubts.
112
00:12:32,351 --> 00:12:35,059
When we first moved to this area
113
00:12:35,488 --> 00:12:38,230
there were rumors going around
about Shogen Makabe.
114
00:12:39,759 --> 00:12:42,330
He was living like a farmer
115
00:12:42,394 --> 00:12:45,466
and kept remembering his late master
and wouldn't serve anyone else.
116
00:12:45,664 --> 00:12:48,702
For not leaving this land,
they praised him greatly
117
00:12:49,034 --> 00:12:52,174
and thought him to be a
perfect example of a samurai.
118
00:12:52,738 --> 00:12:56,709
But those high-spirited youths
didn't like him at all.
119
00:12:57,843 --> 00:13:01,689
So one day they attacked
him on their horses.
120
00:13:19,565 --> 00:13:20,771
Move! Get out of the way!
121
00:13:21,033 --> 00:13:23,775
Please! I want you to make a detour!
122
00:13:23,936 --> 00:13:25,108
What?
123
00:13:25,571 --> 00:13:29,109
I want you to bypass the area
between this point and the river.
124
00:13:29,775 --> 00:13:30,845
Quiet!
125
00:13:30,943 --> 00:13:32,854
I don't have to take orders
126
00:13:32,912 --> 00:13:35,950
from a former Arima clansman
who is now living like a farmer!
127
00:13:36,282 --> 00:13:37,260
Move!
128
00:13:37,750 --> 00:13:38,922
No, I won't move!
129
00:13:39,418 --> 00:13:42,831
I'm begging you as a samurai
to bypass this area!
130
00:13:43,055 --> 00:13:44,363
What samurai?
131
00:13:44,690 --> 00:13:47,193
By committing hara-kiri,
you could die as a true samurai.
132
00:13:47,259 --> 00:13:51,002
But instead of doing that,
you live your life in shame! You fool!
133
00:13:51,130 --> 00:13:52,074
Move!
134
00:13:52,731 --> 00:13:54,972
I'm begging you! Please!
135
00:13:55,100 --> 00:13:56,670
Don't worry about it. Go!
136
00:13:57,903 --> 00:13:59,109
Please!
137
00:13:59,839 --> 00:14:00,943
You still won't give up?
138
00:14:01,407 --> 00:14:02,078
Please!
139
00:14:02,308 --> 00:14:03,286
That's enough!
140
00:14:18,724 --> 00:14:21,898
When they heard what happened,
other young men went to get revenge
141
00:14:21,961 --> 00:14:24,168
but the total body count rose to eight.
142
00:14:25,965 --> 00:14:32,143
I tried to tell the men to
stay away from that ronin
143
00:14:33,539 --> 00:14:36,213
but they just wouldn't listen.
144
00:14:36,709 --> 00:14:38,655
And just a short while ago
145
00:14:39,044 --> 00:14:42,514
five more men went out,
but they were all killed by that ronin.
146
00:14:43,082 --> 00:14:45,460
He is a very skilled swordsman.
147
00:14:45,918 --> 00:14:48,159
Now that the situation has gotten
worse, we must kill Makabe
148
00:14:48,220 --> 00:14:50,530
even if we have to get
the archers or the rifle squad.
149
00:14:51,423 --> 00:14:53,869
But if this becomes public
150
00:14:54,360 --> 00:14:56,806
then the Takagaki clan
will become a laughing stock
151
00:14:56,862 --> 00:14:59,172
since we can't even kill one ronin.
152
00:15:00,299 --> 00:15:02,540
That's why I'm asking you for help.
153
00:15:03,202 --> 00:15:05,443
This ronin, Shogen Makabe.
154
00:15:05,604 --> 00:15:09,017
He has killed many
of your clansmen, yet
155
00:15:09,475 --> 00:15:11,955
he refuses to leave the area.
156
00:15:12,645 --> 00:15:14,181
You know the reason why, right?
157
00:15:14,713 --> 00:15:17,956
No, I don't know the reason why.
158
00:15:18,684 --> 00:15:22,257
Either he's got some guts
or he doesn't know fear.
159
00:15:23,455 --> 00:15:24,934
I even find him strange.
160
00:15:25,257 --> 00:15:28,966
His late master,
Lord Ukyonosuke Arima
161
00:15:29,528 --> 00:15:33,408
committed hara-kiri by
the shores of Shinobu River.
162
00:15:33,699 --> 00:15:35,110
What? By the shore?
163
00:15:35,167 --> 00:15:37,579
Makabe's behavior...
164
00:15:37,803 --> 00:15:43,947
He doesn't want people to trample
the ground where his master died.
165
00:15:44,276 --> 00:15:46,256
How do you know all this?
166
00:15:46,645 --> 00:15:49,785
I was there when his master
committed hara-kiri.
167
00:15:51,116 --> 00:15:53,687
You mean as the executioner
for the Shogunate?
168
00:15:54,053 --> 00:15:55,031
That's right.
169
00:15:55,487 --> 00:15:57,398
I was the one who decapitated him.
170
00:15:57,923 --> 00:16:00,301
I did not know that.
171
00:16:02,061 --> 00:16:05,304
But this situation has gotten out of hand
and there's no backing out now.
172
00:16:05,464 --> 00:16:06,534
Lord Ogami.
173
00:16:07,666 --> 00:16:10,374
I'll have the 500 ryo
ready for you immediately
174
00:16:10,436 --> 00:16:12,313
and I'll ask you once again.
175
00:16:13,205 --> 00:16:15,708
I want you to kill Makabe at all costs!
176
00:16:16,842 --> 00:16:17,877
Sir!
177
00:16:20,813 --> 00:16:21,848
Sir.
178
00:16:22,314 --> 00:16:25,887
I understand a ronin
killed over ten of our men
179
00:16:26,518 --> 00:16:29,397
but why hire some greedy
assassin to take him down?
180
00:16:29,488 --> 00:16:30,822
Mind your own business!
181
00:16:30,823 --> 00:16:31,733
Mind your own business!
No!
182
00:16:31,790 --> 00:16:34,771
The ones who died won't
be able to rest in peace.
183
00:16:34,827 --> 00:16:38,798
Please let me handle this.
184
00:16:39,465 --> 00:16:42,207
I know how you must feel.
185
00:16:43,235 --> 00:16:45,545
You call yourself ltto Ogami?
186
00:16:46,705 --> 00:16:48,446
This is not your fight!
187
00:16:48,507 --> 00:16:49,485
Hey!
188
00:16:49,808 --> 00:16:51,446
If you want to accept this job
189
00:16:51,877 --> 00:16:55,620
then fight me first,
Geki Tomoe, spear instructor.
190
00:16:57,182 --> 00:16:58,525
Fight?
191
00:16:58,784 --> 00:17:00,593
With real swords, right?
192
00:17:00,853 --> 00:17:01,729
What?
193
00:17:01,787 --> 00:17:02,765
How about it?
194
00:17:02,821 --> 00:17:03,822
No!
195
00:17:04,223 --> 00:17:06,829
I will not allow you to
fight with real swords!
196
00:17:08,093 --> 00:17:10,334
I will leave everything in your hands.
197
00:17:12,131 --> 00:17:13,109
Wait!
198
00:17:13,832 --> 00:17:16,176
I'll get your 500 ryo right now.
199
00:17:17,603 --> 00:17:18,877
I don't need your money.
200
00:17:19,972 --> 00:17:22,282
You're an assassin known as
201
00:17:22,441 --> 00:17:25,820
the "Lone Wolf and Cub" who always
charges 500 ryo for a kill. So why?
202
00:17:26,845 --> 00:17:28,950
I guess you can call it fate.
203
00:17:32,985 --> 00:17:34,055
Sir.
204
00:17:34,586 --> 00:17:39,035
I have been humiliated by ltto Ogami.
205
00:17:39,625 --> 00:17:40,591
Don't worry about it.
206
00:17:40,592 --> 00:17:41,366
Don't worry about it.
But...
207
00:17:41,427 --> 00:17:42,371
Enough!
208
00:17:43,962 --> 00:17:46,499
You know very well that our clan
209
00:17:46,565 --> 00:17:49,546
forbids duels for any personal reasons.
210
00:17:50,936 --> 00:17:54,179
But since he refused
to accept the money
211
00:17:54,540 --> 00:17:57,146
maybe ltto Ogami has
refused to do the job.
212
00:17:58,343 --> 00:17:59,413
I don't think so.
213
00:18:00,012 --> 00:18:04,654
His eyes were filled with a killer's instinct.
214
00:18:39,585 --> 00:18:41,189
Why don't you kill yourself?
215
00:18:41,487 --> 00:18:43,364
Do it! Commit hara-kiri!
216
00:18:43,555 --> 00:18:45,000
Die and apologize to our Highness!
217
00:18:45,057 --> 00:18:47,196
You were greatly cared for by
our Highness for many years
218
00:18:47,259 --> 00:18:49,603
but you gave up on your duel
and disregarded his will.
219
00:18:49,761 --> 00:18:50,796
How disloyal!
220
00:18:51,396 --> 00:18:53,501
Shame on you! Shame on you!
221
00:19:02,074 --> 00:19:06,045
Lone Wolf and Cub
222
00:19:18,690 --> 00:19:22,035
Well, this is like a wake.
223
00:19:22,728 --> 00:19:24,901
We have some problems, you see.
224
00:19:26,098 --> 00:19:30,478
I've heard you guys complaining about
your problems a million times already.
225
00:19:30,802 --> 00:19:34,079
But this time around
we really have a problem.
226
00:19:34,139 --> 00:19:37,916
Remember that ronin with the kid?
227
00:19:38,610 --> 00:19:41,318
He was a cute-looking boy.
228
00:19:41,380 --> 00:19:42,518
What are you saying?
229
00:19:42,581 --> 00:19:43,992
He's a cub.
230
00:19:44,383 --> 00:19:45,020
What?
231
00:19:45,083 --> 00:19:48,621
Former executioner for
the Shogunate, ltto Ogami.
232
00:19:49,588 --> 00:19:53,331
He is now feared and known
as the "Lone Wolf and Cub."
233
00:19:53,725 --> 00:19:55,796
Why is he here?
234
00:19:55,861 --> 00:19:57,932
He has been hired as an assassin.
235
00:19:57,996 --> 00:20:00,772
If he has been hired to kill Shogen...
236
00:20:00,832 --> 00:20:03,108
Then our plan will be wasted.
237
00:20:03,302 --> 00:20:05,373
What do you mean, "plan"?
238
00:20:05,904 --> 00:20:10,614
Shogen is a troublesome
figure for the Takagaki clan.
239
00:20:11,043 --> 00:20:15,514
And if you were their boss,
Ukyonosuke Arima
240
00:20:16,181 --> 00:20:18,661
you would be happy to
have Shogen's head.
241
00:20:19,351 --> 00:20:23,424
We were hoping to get government
jobs by killing Shogen first.
242
00:20:24,022 --> 00:20:25,933
You still have some time, right?
243
00:20:26,525 --> 00:20:29,972
If you don't hurry, the "Lone Wolf and
Cub" is going to beat you to it.
244
00:20:32,097 --> 00:20:35,977
I want to get married to
a man who does a great deed
245
00:20:36,134 --> 00:20:39,115
and be the wife of a wealthy Lord.
246
00:20:41,707 --> 00:20:44,347
You boys are shabby
247
00:20:44,776 --> 00:20:47,416
but you'll make it
on your own someday.
248
00:20:47,879 --> 00:20:50,018
That's what I was hoping for.
249
00:20:51,617 --> 00:20:55,087
But the thing is, there's three of you.
250
00:20:56,121 --> 00:20:58,601
I stuck by and treated
you all fairly until now.
251
00:20:59,224 --> 00:21:03,229
But I'm thinking it's time for
me to choose one of you.
252
00:21:03,528 --> 00:21:05,474
Okyo, wait for me.
253
00:21:07,833 --> 00:21:12,111
That's it? You're going to let
Matazo have all the glory?
254
00:21:12,471 --> 00:21:14,075
I don't think so.
255
00:21:16,275 --> 00:21:19,085
You're not so greedy, Shinsuke.
256
00:21:19,911 --> 00:21:23,017
There's a saying,
"While there's life, there's hope."
257
00:21:23,148 --> 00:21:25,059
Make haste slowly.
258
00:21:37,629 --> 00:21:39,540
Hyodo dropped out on his own will.
259
00:21:39,598 --> 00:21:41,703
I guess we're the only
ones after the prize.
260
00:21:41,767 --> 00:21:43,940
No, you can have the woman.
261
00:21:44,036 --> 00:21:44,980
What?
262
00:21:45,037 --> 00:21:47,745
But I get Shogen's head.
263
00:21:47,806 --> 00:21:48,750
Shut up!
264
00:21:49,408 --> 00:21:50,386
Look!
265
00:21:55,981 --> 00:21:57,324
He beat us to it.
266
00:22:14,466 --> 00:22:16,844
I knew from the moment I saw you
267
00:22:17,035 --> 00:22:20,847
that you would be hired by
them as an assassin to kill me.
268
00:22:21,406 --> 00:22:22,714
I was not hired.
269
00:22:22,908 --> 00:22:24,353
I came here of my own will.
270
00:22:25,110 --> 00:22:26,646
Your own will?
271
00:22:29,981 --> 00:22:35,363
Then, how come I don't see
a killer's instinct in your eyes?
272
00:22:35,987 --> 00:22:38,627
When one emits this feeling
and it's returned by the other
273
00:22:38,690 --> 00:22:40,727
the killing instinct becomes greater.
274
00:22:40,859 --> 00:22:45,968
You live your life as an assassin
and travel a hellish path. Why?
275
00:22:46,164 --> 00:22:49,008
I have cut ties with all
living things in this world
276
00:22:49,067 --> 00:22:52,310
and it is my earnest
wish to get revenge.
277
00:22:52,771 --> 00:22:53,841
Then...
278
00:22:54,406 --> 00:22:56,716
I was fooled by you since
this cowardly behavior
279
00:22:57,209 --> 00:23:00,816
is contrary to the
killing instinct you possess.
280
00:23:02,214 --> 00:23:03,420
Lord Ogami.
281
00:23:04,049 --> 00:23:05,027
Fight me!
282
00:23:06,017 --> 00:23:07,087
Wait.
283
00:23:08,120 --> 00:23:09,326
From the way I see it
284
00:23:09,488 --> 00:23:13,903
it must've taken you many years to
create that statue of a Buddhist saint.
285
00:23:14,793 --> 00:23:16,704
You're almost complete.
286
00:23:18,697 --> 00:23:21,200
Why not finish it before we go on?
287
00:23:24,903 --> 00:23:26,348
That's very kind of you.
288
00:23:27,172 --> 00:23:30,085
I decided to make this
for my late master
289
00:23:30,475 --> 00:23:32,421
six months after his death.
290
00:23:33,311 --> 00:23:38,192
After three and a half years,
this is about to be completed.
291
00:23:38,884 --> 00:23:43,162
I know I lost that duel.
292
00:23:44,289 --> 00:23:48,203
But I had hoped to fight you
after seeing you again.
293
00:23:49,127 --> 00:23:51,573
And by displaying my
Taisha-ryu techniques
294
00:23:51,997 --> 00:23:54,841
I can be freed from the blunder
I made back then for my late master.
295
00:23:54,900 --> 00:23:57,278
That's what I kept telling myself.
296
00:23:58,303 --> 00:24:00,647
But now that time has
come rather quickly.
297
00:24:01,273 --> 00:24:04,117
It came very quickly.
298
00:24:04,643 --> 00:24:08,682
And I thank you for providing your time
and kindness for me to complete this.
299
00:24:09,080 --> 00:24:11,390
I can't thank you enough.
300
00:24:23,261 --> 00:24:26,105
We must get Shogen's
head no matter what.
301
00:24:26,198 --> 00:24:27,871
But Ogami is a very tough opponent.
302
00:24:28,066 --> 00:24:29,204
You got any ideas?
303
00:24:29,267 --> 00:24:30,746
Don't worry.
304
00:24:31,736 --> 00:24:32,771
I have this.
305
00:24:34,005 --> 00:24:36,986
As long as we have this,
we can defeat ltto Ogami.
306
00:24:38,310 --> 00:24:41,382
Well, I'm going to need
a little more time.
307
00:24:43,882 --> 00:24:44,860
Excuse me.
308
00:25:17,282 --> 00:25:18,625
This place is fine.
309
00:25:19,518 --> 00:25:21,361
You can blow that mouth
hooter all you want.
310
00:25:27,993 --> 00:25:29,336
We have to kill Ogami first.
311
00:26:02,761 --> 00:26:03,899
I don't care who it is.
312
00:26:03,962 --> 00:26:04,997
Fight me!
313
00:26:09,334 --> 00:26:10,438
Why won't you answer me?
314
00:26:10,902 --> 00:26:12,176
You're a coward, Master!
315
00:26:12,237 --> 00:26:13,079
What?
316
00:26:13,838 --> 00:26:16,682
The reason why many of
the clansmen were killed
317
00:26:16,741 --> 00:26:19,722
is because you started this all by
attacking Shogen on that very day!
318
00:26:20,278 --> 00:26:24,090
Then you just backed down and
you won't even try to kill Shogen!
319
00:26:24,482 --> 00:26:27,088
How can you call yourself a samurai?
320
00:26:27,452 --> 00:26:31,059
I don't want to call you
my master anymore!
321
00:26:31,256 --> 00:26:32,326
Hey.
322
00:26:32,724 --> 00:26:35,227
You shouldn't give
your master any trouble.
323
00:26:35,860 --> 00:26:36,895
Who are you?
324
00:26:36,962 --> 00:26:39,101
I used to be a vassal
for Ukyonosuke Arima.
325
00:26:39,164 --> 00:26:40,609
I'm Shinsuke Hyodo.
326
00:26:40,865 --> 00:26:43,573
You're just a ronin!
Mind your own business!
327
00:26:43,635 --> 00:26:44,477
Get out of here!
328
00:26:44,536 --> 00:26:45,480
Leave this place!
329
00:26:45,537 --> 00:26:47,608
Wait a minute!
330
00:26:48,206 --> 00:26:50,686
I just wanted to let
you know something.
331
00:26:51,509 --> 00:26:52,647
Well, you see...
332
00:26:53,211 --> 00:26:57,421
It seems like ltto Ogami has
become Shogen Makabe's bodyguard.
333
00:26:57,582 --> 00:26:58,720
What?
334
00:26:58,783 --> 00:26:59,955
�To Ogami?
335
00:27:00,385 --> 00:27:02,991
That means, in order to kill Shogen
336
00:27:03,521 --> 00:27:05,523
you must first kill ltto.
337
00:27:06,157 --> 00:27:10,606
But if he's an assassin
hired by the chief retainer
338
00:27:11,529 --> 00:27:14,066
we won't be able to lay a hand on him.
339
00:27:14,532 --> 00:27:20,175
On top of that, I heard you're forbidden
to get involved with Shogen Makabe.
340
00:27:21,139 --> 00:27:24,746
But he has killed over
ten of your clansmen.
341
00:27:25,977 --> 00:27:29,686
I'm sure you want to
avenge their deaths.
342
00:27:30,915 --> 00:27:33,054
If you don't do anything about this
343
00:27:33,652 --> 00:27:35,632
you will lose your pride as a samurai.
344
00:27:35,754 --> 00:27:41,796
And so, you should choose
substance over appearance.
345
00:27:42,293 --> 00:27:45,365
Why don't you let me choose
appearance over substance?
346
00:27:46,931 --> 00:27:51,209
You want us to assist you and
you want to get credit for the kill?
347
00:27:52,270 --> 00:27:54,841
Once I'm appointed a
position in the Takagaki clan
348
00:27:55,040 --> 00:27:56,986
I'm sure I can be of some help to you.
349
00:27:58,710 --> 00:28:01,850
Our only target is Shogen Makabe.
350
00:28:02,113 --> 00:28:05,492
Therefore, we don't
want to fight ltto Ogami!
351
00:28:05,917 --> 00:28:07,658
But that "Lone Wolf and Cub"...
352
00:28:08,119 --> 00:28:11,032
He's guarding Shogen and
he won't leave his sight.
353
00:29:16,721 --> 00:29:19,998
What are you going to do?
Kidnapping a kid like that...
354
00:29:20,492 --> 00:29:22,369
If we kidnap the cub
355
00:29:22,694 --> 00:29:25,265
I'm sure the adult wolf will
come out of that shack.
356
00:29:26,197 --> 00:29:30,907
If we don't separate ltto Ogami from
Shogen, we won't be able to kill him.
357
00:29:31,870 --> 00:29:34,009
I'm not interested in this.
358
00:29:34,172 --> 00:29:36,846
Didn't you say you wanted to
be the wife of a wealthy Lord?
359
00:29:39,010 --> 00:29:41,251
Both Kobori and Yagi are dead.
360
00:29:41,646 --> 00:29:43,353
I'm the only one you can rely on.
361
00:29:44,215 --> 00:29:46,422
Looks like the worst one stayed alive.
362
00:29:51,456 --> 00:29:53,265
What's wrong? You got cramps again?
363
00:29:53,825 --> 00:29:55,702
That's what you get for
badmouthing me like that.
364
00:29:58,897 --> 00:29:59,875
Better?
365
00:30:02,600 --> 00:30:04,273
Now let's pick up where we left off.
366
00:30:05,136 --> 00:30:06,706
Go get me the cub!
367
00:30:15,246 --> 00:30:20,992
Feeling lonely all by yourself...
368
00:30:21,419 --> 00:30:27,267
Let's go together, just the two of us...
369
00:30:28,293 --> 00:30:34,244
As long as we look at each other...
370
00:30:34,632 --> 00:30:40,173
Starworts and dandelions...
371
00:30:41,639 --> 00:30:47,282
Purple lavenders
372
00:30:47,979 --> 00:30:53,691
that my younger sister likes...
373
00:30:55,320 --> 00:31:01,293
Rape blossoms have bloomed...
374
00:31:02,060 --> 00:31:08,306
Kind butterfly...
375
00:31:09,901 --> 00:31:10,067
Fudo
376
00:31:10,068 --> 00:31:12,742
Fudo
You don't have to do all that.
377
00:31:13,204 --> 00:31:15,582
No, he's not just any ordinary kid.
378
00:31:15,907 --> 00:31:18,444
I can't believe I did such a bad thing.
379
00:31:18,610 --> 00:31:20,283
Don't think of him as a human child!
380
00:31:20,612 --> 00:31:21,818
He's a cub!
381
00:31:21,980 --> 00:31:22,822
Listen.
382
00:31:22,914 --> 00:31:24,359
Keep an eye on him at all times!
383
00:31:27,185 --> 00:31:28,630
He's such a blockhead.
384
00:31:28,887 --> 00:31:31,800
He called you a cub.
What a terrible thing to say.
385
00:31:55,213 --> 00:31:59,423
Oh, so you like my
shamisen that much?
386
00:31:59,651 --> 00:32:00,721
Yeah.
387
00:32:06,858 --> 00:32:08,235
It hurts...
388
00:32:10,929 --> 00:32:11,964
It hurts...
389
00:32:13,164 --> 00:32:16,634
Lone Wolf and Cub
390
00:32:17,068 --> 00:32:19,674
It's very easy to lure the wolf out.
391
00:32:19,904 --> 00:32:25,650
If we strike while he's away, we can
easily kill Shogen and take his head.
392
00:32:25,843 --> 00:32:27,789
You're a pretty smart fellow.
393
00:32:27,845 --> 00:32:32,294
If I can get Shogen's head, I will be
guaranteed a job for the government.
394
00:32:32,684 --> 00:32:33,924
Where is the kid?
395
00:32:34,385 --> 00:32:36,922
I tied him up and put him in
the shrine with the Jizo statue.
396
00:32:37,188 --> 00:32:38,292
Come back here!
397
00:32:43,394 --> 00:32:44,270
Come back!
398
00:33:16,427 --> 00:33:17,667
Thanks.
399
00:33:18,262 --> 00:33:20,242
You got some medicine for me.
400
00:33:20,298 --> 00:33:21,276
Yeah.
401
00:33:25,203 --> 00:33:27,149
What? Medicine?
402
00:33:27,505 --> 00:33:33,751
This boy went and got
some medicine for me.
403
00:33:34,112 --> 00:33:38,151
I see. I thought this kid got loose
and fled from this place.
404
00:33:38,216 --> 00:33:39,092
What are you doing?
405
00:33:39,150 --> 00:33:40,493
You know what I'm doing.
406
00:33:41,052 --> 00:33:43,555
I'm using the cub as
bait to lure the wolf.
407
00:33:43,621 --> 00:33:45,123
Don't do that.
408
00:33:45,356 --> 00:33:46,835
Repaying kindness with evil.
409
00:33:46,891 --> 00:33:48,768
That's beside the point.
410
00:33:53,564 --> 00:33:56,443
If you lay a hand on him,
you'll be sorry!
411
00:33:56,634 --> 00:33:59,342
You bitch! You're going to betray me?
412
00:33:59,937 --> 00:34:02,144
Go on, boy! Hurry up
and get out of here!
413
00:34:02,206 --> 00:34:03,446
Hurry to your father!
414
00:34:03,741 --> 00:34:04,617
Okvo!
415
00:34:04,675 --> 00:34:05,442
Hurry up and go!
416
00:34:05,443 --> 00:34:07,081
Hurry up and go!
How dare you betray me!
417
00:36:02,393 --> 00:36:03,565
Kid.
418
00:36:04,529 --> 00:36:06,099
Thank you...
419
00:36:06,864 --> 00:36:08,775
Thank you...
420
00:36:46,604 --> 00:36:47,605
�to!
421
00:36:47,972 --> 00:36:49,349
We want Shogen!
422
00:36:53,311 --> 00:36:56,190
This is not your fight,
you lowly assassin!
423
00:36:59,083 --> 00:36:59,959
Go!
424
00:38:26,771 --> 00:38:27,772
Daddy!
425
00:38:29,173 --> 00:38:30,151
Daddy!
426
00:38:55,099 --> 00:38:56,476
�To Ogami'.!
427
00:38:56,767 --> 00:38:57,905
Prepare to die!
428
00:41:22,079 --> 00:41:23,057
Your Highness.
429
00:41:24,348 --> 00:41:25,827
For the last four years
430
00:41:26,317 --> 00:41:30,424
I have lived a life of mischief and
disloyalty and have wasted my life.
431
00:41:30,788 --> 00:41:35,237
But now it seems like my wait is over.
432
00:41:36,760 --> 00:41:39,798
Having met ltto Ogami is
certainly a grace from heaven.
433
00:41:40,331 --> 00:41:43,141
His Suio-ryu and my Taisha-ryu.
434
00:41:43,968 --> 00:41:47,472
Now is the time to decide
who is best in real combat.
435
00:41:47,838 --> 00:41:48,714
Your Highness!
436
00:41:49,807 --> 00:41:52,720
Please watch over me!
437
00:41:56,547 --> 00:41:59,960
Keitokuin Shinmatsu
438
00:42:12,229 --> 00:42:16,143
I want you to listen for
a while before we fight.
439
00:42:16,367 --> 00:42:20,975
Even if I had tried to inflict damage
to your robe and its emblem
440
00:42:21,038 --> 00:42:22,711
it wouldn't have changed anything.
441
00:42:23,908 --> 00:42:26,388
If we wanted to get revenge
against the government
442
00:42:26,677 --> 00:42:29,521
then we would've gotten a bunch
of troops on horses to fight
443
00:42:29,580 --> 00:42:33,619
before our clan was destroyed and
our Highness committed hara-kiri.
444
00:42:33,684 --> 00:42:36,255
To die in battle like that would
be the way of the samurai.
445
00:42:36,420 --> 00:42:38,798
If I had hurt you with my sword
446
00:42:39,256 --> 00:42:41,634
our Highness would have
felt a moment of pleasure
447
00:42:41,692 --> 00:42:44,263
but he would have
committed hara-kiri anyway.
448
00:42:44,662 --> 00:42:48,769
On the contrary, I would've left a
negative image of our clan to the public.
449
00:42:49,266 --> 00:42:52,440
I wanted our Highness
to die with composure
450
00:42:52,503 --> 00:42:54,505
like an honorable samurai.
451
00:42:54,805 --> 00:42:57,513
Even if they accuse
me of being disloyal
452
00:42:57,775 --> 00:43:01,814
I just wanted them to see your great
sword techniques as the executioner.
453
00:43:05,349 --> 00:43:07,852
Do you believe the
words that I just spoke?
454
00:43:08,118 --> 00:43:09,995
I do believe.
455
00:43:10,154 --> 00:43:12,395
And that is why we must fight.
456
00:43:12,623 --> 00:43:15,797
I guess this is what they call fate.
457
00:43:16,160 --> 00:43:18,162
It is said that the cloud
will make the dragon rise
458
00:43:18,228 --> 00:43:20,572
and the wind will make the tiger run.
459
00:43:21,065 --> 00:43:23,204
You truly feel you're like
those ground cherries.
460
00:43:23,267 --> 00:43:25,941
Even when the branch has been
broken, it doesn't lose its colors.
461
00:43:26,570 --> 00:43:31,644
Your late master must be proud
of the wind and cloud inside you.
462
00:43:32,676 --> 00:43:33,848
Lord Ogami.
463
00:43:34,378 --> 00:43:39,191
I no longer wear the robe with the
emblem. I'm just an assassin now.
464
00:43:39,683 --> 00:43:43,597
We both have a grudge
against the government.
465
00:43:44,722 --> 00:43:49,330
But this is a fight for two men
living the way of the sword.
466
00:43:49,560 --> 00:43:50,664
Indeed.
467
00:43:51,528 --> 00:43:53,565
Taisha-ryu, Shogen Makabe.
468
00:43:54,031 --> 00:43:55,032
Ready!
469
00:43:55,933 --> 00:43:59,244
Suio-ryu, Rio Ogami.
470
00:45:44,641 --> 00:45:48,714
After all the bloodshed,
one is able to find mercy.
471
00:45:49,079 --> 00:45:52,026
Perhaps that is the essence
of being an assassin.
472
00:45:53,350 --> 00:45:57,492
By the shores of the Shinobu River,
ltto Ogami has ended the fateful duel.
473
00:45:57,755 --> 00:46:02,067
He continued on the cruel,
hellish path with his son, Daigoro
474
00:46:02,126 --> 00:46:04,504
and was never to be seen again.
475
00:46:13,737 --> 00:46:14,807
Next Episode
476
00:46:14,872 --> 00:46:17,216
ltto Ogami fears only one samurai.
477
00:46:17,274 --> 00:46:20,448
Who is this man they call
the "Headhunter Asaemon"?
478
00:46:21,145 --> 00:46:25,491
Asaemon receives a secret order
from his superiors to kill ltto
479
00:46:25,549 --> 00:46:27,927
but what is he feeling inside?
480
00:46:28,752 --> 00:46:32,222
A mysterious woman named
Mayumi approaches Asaemon.
481
00:46:32,956 --> 00:46:36,062
ltto and Asaemon must
each face their harsh fate
482
00:46:36,126 --> 00:46:38,800
and their encounter at Kuyogahara.
483
00:46:39,296 --> 00:46:42,277
Please look forward to our
next episode, "Headhunter Asaemon."
