The Imperial standard determined the outcome of the battle.

Fire!

The Choshu-Satsuma Alliance declared itself the Emperor's army, and the new government forces defeated the bakufu army.

Fire!

Don't run!

Sasaki-sama!

Damn Saigo!

Sasaki-sama!

Kyoto

Thank you for your effort.

This is a great victory.

The Imperial banner worked.

We won! We changed the course of history!

I'm going back to Edo.

On the night of the sixth of January, Tokugawa Yoshinobu, along with Matsudaira Katamori and Sadaaki, secretly left Osaka castle.

Yoshinobu arrived in Edo by sea.

From that moment, Tokugawa and Shinsengumi began their descent into the abyss.

Thank you.

We're going to Osaka.

We have no chance of winning here.

All the Aizu samurai have already left for Osaka.

There we will join Kondo-San and the others.

I would like to stay and continue fighting.

A wiser solution is to retreat to Osaka and regroup.

I'm going back to our Kyoto barracks.

It's dangerous. There are Satsuma and Choshu samurai everywhere.

That's why I'm going.

There's a lot left that shouldn't fall into their hands. I'll go there and get everything.

Saito, I need you.

Obey.

Yamazaki, I can't go on the highway. Lead me by a circuitous route.

Clear.

Maybe I should go with you.

I don't mind going, either. Who knows when we will visit Kyoto again.

Decide for itself.

The main thing - do not die.

Obey.

The rest go to Osaka.

Osaka Castle

Sasaki-sama!

Remain... in the castle of Osaka... and reflect... attack of enemy.

If you hold out... at least a month... from Edo... help will come.

Then we will... be able to cross... to the counter.

Let the shogun... starts an attack... from the castle.

Then... beyond question... we will win.

I tell you... its burden... now the fate... Tokugawa clan... in your hands.

January 7, 1868, Kyoto

The Shinsengumi Barracks

This is the last one.

You can go back to Yagi-San's house.

Thanks for the help.

I pray for your victory.

Ogata compiled reports on our operations, down to the names of the people killed.

It would be unpleasant if these records fell into the hands of enemies.

We should no longer be interested in the past.

Reading these notes is unlikely to bring anyone joy.

It's a strange sight, isn't it?

How did you find us?

I felt you should come back.

I asked Fusakichi to tell me when you will come.

This is my parting gift. I think you'll need it.

Don't worry, the temple has enough funds.

But...

I once told you that I am always neutral.

And I like to watch the course of history.

I hope to see the last acts of the Shinsengumi.

Thanks for the help.

Vice commander, Satsuma samurai are hanging around outside.

We should leave.

No trace.

Cowards!

They seem to have already escaped.

We have more and more enemies.

I can attack in the meantime...

Not worth. You will only die in vain.

Tamasaburo.

My father told me everything. Follow me.

Here.

Gennodes-San.

Long time no see.

There's a safe road over there.

Thanks.

That's all I can do for you.

Focacci help them.

Obey.

You might want to take more food with you.

Thank you.

May heaven help you in this difficult struggle.

Well good luck.

I will not forget your kindness.

It's time to go.

After everything they've done for Kyoto, they have to flee the city this way...

Did they do anything wrong?

Nothing.

Nothing.

What ? That's enough!

Shigeru will be born soon!

My comrades are now risking their lives.

I can't stay.

I'll be back as soon as it's over.

You could die.

No way.

And if you do get killed?

I will return even if I die.

No, no, it's even worse. If you die, don't come back.

Why not?

Come back alive.

I promise.

Be sure to come back!

Shigeru can't grow up without a father!

Watch out for Satsuma and Choshu's soldiers.

Better hide if they find out that you were the wife of an officer Shinsengumi.

Where should I go?

Go to the house of Yagi-San.

When all is settled, return to your parents so that Shigeru is born in peace.

What will happen to Japan now?

I don't even know that.

When Satsuma and Choshu come to power, you will be wanted.

If it comes to that, we'll cross the sea and settle in China.

China?

("Suikoden" is a Chinese legend about the struggle of a band of robbers against an evil ruler; a kind of analogue of the stories about Robin hood.) There are gangs of robbers like Suikoden.

I will be their commander.

What kind of "Suikoden"?

And you will become the commander of the women's squad.

I have a bad feeling about this...

I will definitely be back. Wait for me with Shigeru.

Osono...

Hachiro-sama...

Stop!

Did you kill my wife?!

What kind of face are you?

The commander of the Second division of the Shinsengumi, Nagakura Shinpachi.

Give me only three hundred men.

I swear, I will be able to defend the castle.

You can't give it up without any resistance.

Our enemy has become stronger.

They may have raised false Imperial banners, but the shogun is with us.

Kondo, you know what's going on...

What did you take with you?

We didn't burn everything, did we?

So you noticed.

A list of the members of the Shinsengumi.

He's three years old.

This was the best time for Shinsengumi.

I said I didn't care about the past...

Save it.

You have created a squad of the Shinsengumi. You must also save it.

There are only animal tracks ahead. This road is safer.

Yamazaki!

I do not believe...

Daimyo of Aizu left.

The shogun ordered it.

The battle is just beginning!

Why did he leave his vassals and go to Edo?

I don't know!

Without it...

We have no chance of winning.

The bleeding stopped.

I can't be a scout anymore.

Come on.

They disfigured my face.

It's much easier to identify me now.

Shouldn't we take him to the doctor?

You and I seem to be bound by fate.

Well, Yes, Yes, I'm thirty years Sateska.

What are you doing here?

Hiding, what else?

I am wanted by the Tosa samurai, Satsuma, Choshu, and Mimawarigumi members.

I couldn't find another job, so I asked the owner of the terad-I to hire me as a delivery boy.

So you're still looking for an easy life.

He needs a doctor, or he'll die.

The city is overrun by Choshu and Satsuma troops.

Let's go to Terada-ya.

I don't think the innkeeper will give us shelter.

I'll talk to her.

Our meeting was predetermined by fate.

Depart.

We need to look around.

I hope you're not hiding the Shinsengumi people? They're still scurrying around.

If the Shinsengumi samurai come to me for help , I will not refuse them.

But I will not deny shelter to people from Satsuma or Choshu.

We don't choose our clients - they come by themselves.

Will you let the Shinsengumi samurai in if they come?

I will help anyone who comes to me.

I've harbored Satsuma rioters more than once.

You probably don't know...

I am Otose, the mistress of the Terada-I.

I ask you to leave!

Be patient! Your wound is not so serious!

How are you feeling?

Not bad.

I thought she was assigned to take care of me.

And she never even came up today...

You don't need urgent help. So be patient.

Kondo-San, can I have a word with you?

A ship is leaving for Edo soon.

I'm going to leave in it, taking all the wounded with me.

What will you do?

I will not leave Osaka until I have gathered all the people of Shinsengumi.

I understand you, but we were defeated on the Toba and Fushimi roads.

Who knows how many of them are still alive.

Commander!

Kat-Chan!

What do you mean "the shogun no"?

He ran away and left us?

Sanosuke! I think the shogun had his reasons.

What should we do now?

I decided to return to Edo.

Return to Edo?

Stand...

Soon, two military vessels out of the harbour Tenpozan and go to Edo.

Namely, "Jujomura" and "Fujimaru".

We're leaving. Preparations are almost complete.

So we'll have to say goodbye to Kyoto...

We haven't seen our native places for several years.

I wonder if classes are still going on in Sheikan?

What a big castle!

I feel almost like a Taiko!

Sateska, Toshi told me everything.

Thank you for your help.

Don't thank me.

Well, I'm off. See you soon!

We're going back to Edo.

Really?

Would you like to go to Tama with us?

Don't you want to go home?

I'm going home!

Please wait here, the ship is almost ready to sail.

I don't want to go back.

I'm sorry, but I'm going to be late.

I vowed to achieve fame in Kyoto.

We have already achieved a lot.

No!

I promised to make you a daimyo!

Who did you promise this to?

To myself.

I'm not going back after losing that battle!

But we didn't lose.

We will continue to fight Choshu and Satsuma.

Edo has a hundred thousand men and a powerful fleet.

It's still just beginning!

We don't run away. We return to snatch victory from the enemy.

January 9, 1868, Osaka

Clear the road! Shinsengumi are coming!

Who is it?

Thank you Shinsengumi for your efforts!

Hide-Chan!

Okita-San, cheer up!

Who is it?

Old friend.

Edo Castle

With the return.

I know what you're trying to say.

Since you are here, everything is already in order.

I had no choice.

You couldn't think of anything better to do than go back.

If I had stayed in Osaka, there would have been a major battle.

I didn't mean to Osaka was destroyed.

But now the same threat loomed over Edo.

Why did you come back?!

What was I supposed to do?!

You did the right thing by resigning your authority.

But after that, you started making mistake after mistake.

If the battle has begun - your job is to win!

You should have commanded the army in person!

Despite your duty, you have returned home, leaving tens of thousands of people to die!

They had the banner of the Emperor.

I don't want to become a rebel!

Who said it was a real banner?

We can still attack Satsuma and Choshu, even from Edo.

We can also raise the Imperial banner and say that we are defending the rights of the Emperor!

You're right. It's not too late.

Thanks to the actions of the shogun, we lost a significant part of the army.

The enemy is getting stronger and is probably already coming to Edo.

Our fate is predetermined.

This is not true.

We still have an army of my clan and the Shinsengumi.

We have a Condo Isami.

We can still turn the tide.

The Shinsengumi?

Yes.

They are old-fashioned idealists who believe in the power of the sword.

They are unlikely to help us.

I realized this in the last battle...

The age of the sword is a thing of the past.

From now on, battles require rifles and cannons.

We cannot continue to entrust our lives to the sword alone.

Has the world changed that much?

And we will have to adapt to it.

Why aren't you in bed?

I decided to get some fresh sea air.

Isn't it strange?

When we left Edo, there were eight of us.

Yamanami-San... Heiske... Gen-San...

Still ahead.

Isn't that right, commander?

I wonder if that's true...

We haven't been to Edo in a long time.

Yes, I haven't seen the house in six years.

I wonder what Shusai-Sensei is doing.

I'm not a child anymore! Really!

Discontinue. If I laugh, I'll start coughing again.

Is he Japanese?

This is Enomoto-San from the Maritime Ministry.

Yes?

He was captain of the "Kiyomaru", which sailed shogun.

He decided to stay and command this ship as well.

So he's the captain?

Poor fellow...

He looks healthy in these Western clothes.

I'd look just as good.

I apologize...

What ?

Where did you get these clothes?

This is my first trip to Edo.

This is the birthplace of Kondo-San and the others, but...

For everyone else born in the West, this is an unknown city. I feel kind of insecure.

You too?

Won't the Shinsengumi fall apart?

Of course not.

I think we'll be disbanded soon.

Why?

To the Tokugawa regime to an end.

Shinsengumi samurai are no longer needed.

I think Kondo-San understands that, too.

It's getting cold.

Would you pass the blanket?

What are you going to do?

Yamazaki spoke for the first time.

It hurts me to talk.

Not experience. The commander said that he would recruit new men as soon as we arrived in Edo.

Really?

There will be more of us in Edo.

By the way, there are many delicious local dishes in Edo.

Yamazaki, look more cheerful.

Yamazaki?...

January 16, 1868, Edo

Listen to me.

I understand that your main goal is to protect the Tokugawa family?

Right.

In that case, you need to hide.

For example, in MiTo.

Isn't it too early to panic?

Can't we win yet?

Victory is only possible if we use the fleet.

We can deliberately lose a battle in Suruga, to lure the enemy to Kimigasuki.

And then we will counterattack, using all the ships.

Then we will move the fleet to Osaka.

If we can cut Saigo off from the rear areas, he's finished.

Then why haven't you done it yet?

We will win if we do this.

But before that, we need dedicated people.

They are the basis of everything.

Any person as wise as you should understand this.

Finally, there is another option.

To be remembered as a wise ruler, bloodshed must be avoided as long as possible.

All these internal conflicts bring real benefits not to us, but to Western countries.

You should go to Kanei-JI temple in Ueno.

I was left with no choice.

I understand you're in a difficult position.

Kondo, the shogun is not going to attack.

He decided to follow the advice of the daimyo Katsu and take refuge in Ueno.

He can't!.. We need to fight to the bitter end!

He doesn't want to become an enemy of the Emperor.

But the Tokugawa are already branded as rebels.

The only way to restore Tokugawa's good name is to fight and win.

The shogun doesn't listen to my arguments.

Even if he agrees to stay in exile, it still won't appease the Satsuma and Choshu clans.

This will only give him a reprieve.

The shogun must attack the Satsuma and Choshu armies.

And free the Emperor from these usurpers.

We will fight to the last.

This is the only way we can achieve victory.

It's already been decided.

The Tokugawa rule came to an end.

What about all those who died for the Shogunate and believed in it?!

What about all the samurai who fell in battle on the Toba and Fushimi roads in the name of the shogun?!

What about your entire life dedicated to serving the shogun and the Emperor?!

The daimyo!

I...I'm desperate.

Sheikan

How did he die?

He just closed his eyes and seemed to fall asleep.

Food...

Yes?

I'm sorry I caused you so much trouble.

What are you saying?.?

Zone...

Yes?

Don't leave Food.

Well.

And more...

Yes?

Pass The IP...

I'm proud of him.

I'm lucky to have a son like that.

He's a real samurai.

Tell him this... for me.

Well.

I have lived a happy life...

I think my father died just in time...

Three months after his death, the Shogunate fell.

The shogun has become an enemy of the Emperor, and we are all rebels.

I'm sorry I didn't live up to his expectations...

I am very happy to see you at home, Isami-sama.

Here everything is the same order...

I've been waiting for you.

We won't break up again?

Finally...

Mother...

Thank you for everything you've done.
