Lone Wolf and Cub

Chrysanthemum Inn

Daigoro.

It's a chrysanthemum.

Hey, bum! Out of the way!

Move that baby cart!

If you get in our way, you're going to pay!

Move!

Who are you?

�To Ogami.

If you have some business, then I'll gladly listen.

Child and swordmanship for hire... ltto Ogami...

What a fool!

Stop!

Insolent fool!

Lady Omaki, if we let him go like this

then the reputation of our clan is going to be ruined.

I haven't been back home in a year.

I will spare their lives.

It will be like prolonging the lives of my parents.

I won't ask any questions.

Put away your blade and scram.

Hey, get outta here!

We're related to Yunoshin Fujieda.

What?

Brother!

Yunoshin! What on earth...

Hey! Don't touch him!

You can't touch him until the investigation is complete!

This is a double suicide...

Yunoshin did a stupid thing!

Who is the woman?

Wait...

This is Kinu from Echigoya!

Indeed it is.

Her name is Okinu, a personal maid for Lady Omaki.

The maid fell in love with a samurai

and to make matters worse, they committed double suicide.

But...

I can't believe a man like Yunoshin Fujieda

was in love with the maid of his fiance.

Fujieda clan is finished...

Please wait!

L-I'm Echigoya!

I'm Okinu's mother!

Your daughter forced a samurai to commit suicide with her!

This is simply outrageous!

Fujieda clan is finished because of your daughter!

Our clan is finished!

Mother!

There must be some kind of a mistake!

My daughter would never do such a thing!

Our daughter was going to get married soon!

That's why I sent her to Lord Kudo's residence to learn good manners...

Omaki!

Keitokuin Shinmatsu

It's been 49 days...

Time flies.

Oichi, what's wrong?

Is it your mother?

What happened to her?

She was very saddened to hear that our clan was finished.

And this morning, 49 days after my brother's death

she killed herself.

Still, Yunoshin was an ungrateful son.

Committing suicide like that...

He ruined his clan and drove his mother to suicide...

Lord Genba. Please.

I want to know why my brother killed himself.

It just doesn't make any sense.

Why did my brother commit double suicide with Kinu of Echigoya?

My brother and Lady Omaki had exchanged vows of love.

I'm sure you're all aware of that.

Plus, after the death of my brother

Lady Omaki went on to become our lordship's mistress.

I just don't understand it!

Lady Oichi.

The three of us know the exact reason why.

You have guessed correctly.

Lady Omaki learned that our lordship has fallen for her

and she regretted the fact that she was to marry Yunoshin.

Yunoshin became a hindrance.

And so, she planned to lure Yunoshin and Lady Okinu separately

so that she could kill them and make it look like a double suicide.

Everything was planned by Lady Omaki.

And the person who carried out the plan is...

You guessed it.

Now that we've told you this valuable information

we have to make sure that you'll keep it quiet.

Fujieda clan has been eliminated.

You're the only one left, Lady Oichi.

What are you going to do?

Y-You people...

Have you no shame?

Insolent fools!

Blame Lady Omaki if you want to.

C)ichi!

C)ichi!

Stop staring into space!

Honey, how should we call out our daughter?

Well, she may be our daughter

but she's also the lordship's mistress.

I guess we'll have to call her the Great Lady Omaki.

Lady Omaki has arrived safely.

Thank you for your great service.

Father, Mother. It's been a long time.

Lady Omaki.

You have become so beautiful.

How is our lordship?

Yes, he's doing very well.

He was looking forward to attending the chrysanthemum viewing party

but I haven't been back home in a year.

He didn't want to ruin our family gathering.

Well, come on in.

Stop him!

Hold him!

I must avenge my daughter!

Take this insolent fool away!

Echigoya.

Stay back!

Stay back!

You bastard! Get up!

To point your blade at me is the same as pointing your blade at our lordship.

Genba. We must not let him live.

I understand.

You're a fool, Echigoya!

Father, mother.

Don't worry about this insolent fool.

Go place this flower on the altar.

Damn it!

You!

Why did you try to kill the lordship's mistress?

G-Give me back my daughter!

He said, "I'll avenge my daughter."

He's the father of that maid.

Give me back my daughter!

Alright.

This should be good.

Lone Wolf and Cub

Out of the 53 post stations of the Tokaido

this is the posting station of Kanaya.

It's located 130 miles from Edo

and 170 miles from Kyoto.

Come on in!

Please come stay with us!

We have hot baths!

Hey, mister!

Please come inside!

Come on in!

Stay with us!

Come stay with us!

Cheapskate!

Come stay with us!

You work here?

Yes...

Alright then. I think I'll stay here for the night!

Yes. Please come in.

I guess it's all about the looks.

But they're not always good in bed.

What are you saying?

During this period, there were women at an inn

who washed the feet of their guests. They were called "Araime."

These women were no different than errand girls

but they were also into prostitution.

So they were also called "Deanna."

Sir, I'll lead you to your room.

You look very innocent.

You have a pretty face too.

Just as obedient as a bride on her first night, eh?

Welcome. Your room is this way.

Welcome.

We'll have some fun later.

Your room is this way.

Please stay with us.

I'm sorry...

Why do you apologize?

Please stay with us if you like.

Daigoro.

Should we stay at an inn for a change?

Okay.

You idiot!

Look carefully at the customers before you let them in!

You let some dirty ronin with a kid into our inn!

We're one of the best subsidiary inns around here.

A top-class inn with a long and distinguished history.

But...

Ronins like that never give us any money!

And what if he starts swinging his sword?

I'm really sorry to tell you this...

I just yelled at one of my people.

We don't have any rooms available right now.

Hold onto this for me.

Well, you sure are quick. Sorry about that.

We're going to stay here for a while.

Yes, of course. When you say a while, how long will it be?

Well, I don't usually ask this kind of thing, but...

This is sort of confidential, but this place

is going to host a chrysanthemum viewing party on the seventh.

This Kikuya has a history of chrysanthemums?

The previous owner of Kikuya was good at growing chrysanthemums.

This place was once called Umeya, but they had to change it to Kikuya.

Now, the roots of those flowers are all over the inner court...

But for some reason, a bright red flower blossoms within the yellow sometimes.

It's almost like the color of a Japanese quince.

And this year, the flower is redder than before.

Many folks think the flower might be feeding on human blood.

I guess these rumors went all the way to the castle.

They said they wanted to have a secret chrysanthemum viewing party.

I see.

So, the lordship is coming here incognito?

No, his mistress Lady Omaki is coming here instead.

That's going to be on the seventh?

That's going to be on the seventh? Yes.

Then I'll leave before that.

Well, that's just what I wanted to hear.

I'll be holding onto this for you then.

Come now, Oichi. Take him to his room!

You're not going to eat or drink?

I should mind my own business.

If you're busy, then you can just attend to the other guests.

Um...

I'm an assassin.

I get paid to kill others.

Damn it! Where did she go?

This is really disappointing!

Hey!

Hey!

Huh? Looks like Oichi isn't here.

She served me a cup of sake and disappeared!

Hey!

I better have her to myself all night!

Yes, of course. I'll bring her over right away.

I'm sure she's just in the bathroom.

Idiot!

He just lied down and now he's already asleep.

He must've been very tired.

Whether it's out in the open or at some inn

he always sleeps well.

You're staying here until the chrysanthemum viewing party?

Excuse me, sir...

Excuse me.

Oichi, that guest from the other room has been asking for you.

I understand.

Excuse me.

That man wouldn't ask me about what took place this afternoon.

He didn't ask me why I was after Lady Omaki's life.

Not a single thing...

Maybe because I'm a prostitute...

Or maybe...

Hurry LIP!

There!

Serves you right!

This doesn't look good.

I can't find any good ones.

Oh, what a waste!

Oops!

Nope. I'm out of luck.

But you know what?

Business has gotten worse.

It's so weird.

We're playing cards instead of making tea.

It's not even funny at all.

Hey, that's not right.

Of course it's right.

Hey!

Hey, Oichi.

That samurai with that kid...

He's pestering you, isn't he?

He's staying here since he likes you, right?

Yeah. That must be it.

Take that!

Damn it!

You put down a really good one.

What's that?

Looks like the person who had this memorial tablet

was killed when he tried to exact his revenge.

You...

Are you here to kill someone?

A dead person does not return from the dead.

I don't know what will happen to me tomorrow.

I want you to hold onto this for me.

Lord Ogami.

Please hear what I have to say.

I don't want to hear it.

I don't need to hear it.

That old fart!

Last night's guest ate so much garlic. He stunk really bad!

You should've eaten a lot of garlic too. Then you can get even!

If only things would work that perfectly.

There we go.

Hey!

Should we play some cards?

She's so conceited.

You may have been a daughter of a samurai

but when you're here, you're just like one of us!

Omaki, you will die.

I'm going to avenge the death of Echigoya!

I see. So you're pregnant with the lordship's child?

Yes.

If she gives birth to a baby boy...

I will become the mother to an heir.

Omaki...l mean, Lady Omaki.

I'm proud of you.

I feel sorry for the late Yunoshin

but if you think about Lady Omaki's happiness...

That's right.

I'm glad he committed suicide with Kinu.

He cheated on me behind my back

and ended up committing double suicide.

He deserved to die like that.

Why? We're colleagues!

Why are you trying to kill me?

What are you doing?

What are you doing?

You!

Genba!

What? What are you doing?

Lone Wolf and Cub

The three of us are here to prepare for tomorrow's chrysanthemum viewing.

Of course.

The chrysanthemums look amazing.

Hey! Get us some sake! And...

You know what else to bring. Right?

Yes.

I'll bring the sake right away, but...

But what?

Only sake?

Yes.

Those women are all resting for tomorrow's party.

Get us a fine woman!

Yes.

Oichi...

C)ichi!

Can you do me a favor and entertain the guests?

You're the only one who can do it.

Excuse me.

I brought you the finest of our women.

Nice to see you again.

Lady Oichi.

How are you?

I'm fine, as you can see.

Well, well... Looks like you people already knew Oichi...

Well, have a good time with her.

Go on now.

Please.

I didn't know you were working at a place like this.

If you needed help, you could've come to us.

Well, you see...

Lady Omaki is...

Lady Omaki is... Kuroki!

Lady Omaki is going to be

attending the chrysanthemum viewing party here tomorrow.

So we came here to prepare for the party.

I see.

Do you still have a grudge against Lady Omaki?

Yes, of course you do.

A grudge is to be held by a decent person.

A fallen woman like myself doesn't deserve to have a grudge...

Now let's drink.

After all that she went through, we just couldn't touch her.

I was surprised to see her too.

But the fact that she's here...

It's just too good to be true.

She definitely knows about tomorrow's party.

That woman is lying to us.

A person's grudge stays in the most unexpected places.

Did you see the look in her eyes?

Those are the eyes of a vengeful person...

She hasn't fallen like those other prostitutes!

Don't forget that incident with Echigoya.

If something were to happen to Lady Omaki

this preparation for the party would be wasted.

Mother...

Brother...

Soon...

I will be joining you two...

You became a prostitute in order to get your revenge?

But that grudge of yours is no more.

Hey! Someone's here!

My brother and my mother...

Please avenge their deaths for me.

Your brother's name is Yunoshin Fujieda.

Yes...

They all work for Lady Omaki...

The Fujieda clan was ruined because of that woman...

Please kill her for me...

Tomorrow marks the one year anniversary of my brother's death...

I'm begging you...

If I die now, all my efforts would be wasted...

There was a woman who wanted to avenge her daughter's death.

Die...

I want you to die...

They're wonderful.

This year, the chrysanthemums are more beautiful than ever before.

It's as if they were expecting you.

Intruder!

Assassin, "Lone Wolf and Cub."

Kill him! Kill him!

Someone!

L...

Later that afternoon

a woman killed herself by Echigoya's grave.

It was Sawa, who hired ltto

but he knew it without even checking the body.

Those who had a grudge and those who brought on their grudge...

Everyone involved with this incident have all died.

Father and son live in a cruel world.

They just keep wandering around in this never-ending journey.
