1
00:00:12,479 --> 00:00:16,650
The Soma Horse Roundup
is held in July.
2
00:00:17,650 --> 00:00:23,355
This event reflects the
training of ancient samurai.
3
00:00:31,464 --> 00:00:34,942
The fierce Soma fought
for the Tohoku area...
4
00:00:34,942 --> 00:00:37,933
against the Date, Ashina,
and Mogami.
5
00:00:38,705 --> 00:00:41,672
Odaka Castle was their base.
6
00:00:46,279 --> 00:00:50,155
Soma territory was not large,
7
00:00:50,155 --> 00:00:54,718
but firmly united, the Soma
held a strategic position.
8
00:00:54,983 --> 00:00:57,718
They were known for their
superior fighting men.
9
00:01:01,428 --> 00:01:05,429
Masamune's great-grandfather,
Date Tanemune...
10
00:01:05,429 --> 00:01:10,432
married his daughter to Soma
Akitane to cement a treaty,
11
00:01:10,637 --> 00:01:13,206
but conflict resumed because
of the provisions in his will,
12
00:01:13,206 --> 00:01:18,206
and many years of warfare followed.
13
00:01:20,513 --> 00:01:22,682
The battlefield of generations past...
14
00:01:23,116 --> 00:01:28,083
became the scene of Tojiro-
Masamune's first battle.
15
00:01:29,900 --> 00:01:36,810
MASAMUNE,
THE ONE-EYED DRAGON
16
00:01:38,670 --> 00:01:42,810

Tensho 9 (1581)
32
00:04:07,814 --> 00:04:10,519
So you fight in your first battle?
33
00:04:11,551 --> 00:04:14,461
How time flies.
34
00:04:14,461 --> 00:04:18,524
Please tell me how
a samurai should behave.
35
00:04:19,525 --> 00:04:26,062
First, compose yourself.
Impatience makes one lose.
36
00:04:26,062 --> 00:04:29,267
Do I appear impatient?
37
00:04:31,004 --> 00:04:35,073
You strain at the bit,
as if you're going to bolt.
38
00:04:35,073 --> 00:04:37,018
I am sorry.
39
00:04:38,044 --> 00:04:41,749
Do you hate the enemy?
40
00:04:41,749 --> 00:04:42,786
Huh?
41
00:04:43,016 --> 00:04:46,187
A general must not hate anyone.
42
00:04:46,187 --> 00:04:50,023
Hatred will merely
make you go berserk.
43
00:04:50,857 --> 00:04:54,026
You cannot pray down your
enemies or save the world.
44
00:04:54,657 --> 00:04:59,726
Hatred will always
be your downfall.
45
00:05:01,067 --> 00:05:05,806
Keep your soul's eyes open,
and you will understand.
46
00:05:05,806 --> 00:05:07,077
Thank you, sir.
47
00:05:09,108 --> 00:05:11,279
One more thing...
48
00:05:12,312 --> 00:05:15,813
I want you to make a
promise to the Buddha.
49
00:05:15,813 --> 00:05:17,526
What is it?
50
00:05:18,351 --> 00:05:23,825
That you never let others
see you sleeping!
51
00:05:24,857 --> 00:05:29,005
You must never lie down.
52
00:05:29,696 --> 00:05:32,867
As a leader, you must...
53
00:05:32,867 --> 00:05:36,108
Impossible! One cannot
live without sleep.
54
00:05:36,108 --> 00:05:38,477
Sleep sitting up!
55
00:05:39,505 --> 00:05:44,844
You may lie down only
when with a woman.
56
00:05:44,844 --> 00:05:47,842
Never let anyone else
see you sleeping.
57
00:05:48,481 --> 00:05:49,488
Yes.
58
00:05:49,816 --> 00:05:54,692
If you complain of a cold
and lie around anywhere,
59
00:05:54,692 --> 00:05:57,688
you are a lazy good-for-nothing.
60
00:06:02,061 --> 00:06:03,164
By the way, Kojuro...
61
00:06:03,164 --> 00:06:04,133
Yes.
62
00:06:04,364 --> 00:06:08,933
Did Lord Tojiro's other
initiation go smoothly?
63
00:06:08,933 --> 00:06:11,844
What do you mean, sir?
64
00:06:12,872 --> 00:06:14,016
Don't you know?
65
00:06:15,842 --> 00:06:23,044
Did he consummate his
marriage with Princess Mego?
66
00:06:24,450 --> 00:06:27,053
I fear not...
67
00:06:27,053 --> 00:06:30,663
He still hasn't?
68
00:06:31,691 --> 00:06:32,651
My word!
69
00:06:35,728 --> 00:06:39,502
To wed and not consummate
is most wasteful.
70
00:06:39,502 --> 00:06:42,499
Do so tonight!
71
00:06:43,536 --> 00:06:49,039
You go for the battle tomorrow.
You may lose your life!
72
00:06:55,715 --> 00:06:56,982
It's Tojiro.
73
00:07:07,160 --> 00:07:09,161
I'm sleeping here tonight.
74
00:07:10,196 --> 00:07:11,267
Let me stay.
75
00:07:13,900 --> 00:07:14,900
Why?
76
00:07:16,803 --> 00:07:20,073
Must you ask?
I am your husband!
77
00:07:22,608 --> 00:07:24,143
What's the matter?
78
00:07:25,178 --> 00:07:27,315
Please excuse me.
79
00:07:27,315 --> 00:07:28,753
Do you dislike me?
80
00:07:29,182 --> 00:07:29,932
No.
81
00:07:30,650 --> 00:07:32,525
Do you hate the Date?
82
00:07:32,525 --> 00:07:33,489
No.
83
00:07:35,221 --> 00:07:36,324
Mego.
84
00:07:36,324 --> 00:07:38,355
Please excuse me.
85
00:07:38,355 --> 00:07:40,006
Look at me.
86
00:07:41,627 --> 00:07:43,032
Are you afraid?
87
00:07:43,362 --> 00:07:44,931
Not at all.
88
00:07:44,931 --> 00:07:47,067
Then look at me!
89
00:07:53,105 --> 00:07:57,045
Mego, you have been at Yonezawa
for a year and a half.
90
00:07:57,677 --> 00:08:01,984
We fought and terrible
things happened.
91
00:08:02,548 --> 00:08:04,753
The retainers are worried.
92
00:08:04,753 --> 00:08:08,092
They say you and I
shun each other.
93
00:08:08,621 --> 00:08:10,622
...that this marriage
was a mistake.
94
00:08:12,658 --> 00:08:14,533
But I disagree.
95
00:08:14,533 --> 00:08:17,367
We were destined
to be together!
96
00:08:17,367 --> 00:08:20,003
We were born under
the same star!
97
00:08:22,702 --> 00:08:25,373
I care for you.
98
00:08:26,405 --> 00:08:30,679
But for some reason,
I can't be gentle with you.
99
00:08:30,679 --> 00:08:32,047
My lord...
100
00:08:32,879 --> 00:08:37,019
Tomorrow, I go to fight the Soma.
101
00:08:37,019 --> 00:08:38,922
The battle will be fierce.
102
00:08:39,952 --> 00:08:43,021
I may even die.
103
00:08:44,557 --> 00:08:47,126
Before we part, for once...
104
00:08:49,161 --> 00:08:53,028
I wanted to be a
gentle man with you.
105
00:09:02,241 --> 00:09:04,810
Will you destroy the Soma?
106
00:09:04,810 --> 00:09:08,286
I'll cut them down
with my own hands.
107
00:09:09,215 --> 00:09:13,182
Soma is my mother's homeland.
108
00:09:14,587 --> 00:09:17,663
My grandmother lives
in Odaka Castle.
109
00:09:17,990 --> 00:09:21,834
Lord Moritane is my uncle,
Yoshitane, my cousin.
110
00:09:21,834 --> 00:09:23,066
That cannot be helped.
111
00:09:23,596 --> 00:09:26,767
Moritane is my own
father's cousin.
112
00:09:26,767 --> 00:09:29,936
Ou warlords are all related.
113
00:09:29,936 --> 00:09:34,036
Why must family fight?
114
00:09:35,575 --> 00:09:38,417
The Date will eventually
threaten even the Tamura.
115
00:09:38,417 --> 00:09:39,513
Not the Tamura!
116
00:09:40,546 --> 00:09:42,019
Is that true?
117
00:09:42,848 --> 00:09:43,748
Yes!
118
00:09:44,383 --> 00:09:46,793
Will you swear?
119
00:09:47,820 --> 00:09:48,764
My lord.
120
00:09:49,789 --> 00:09:51,194
I can't swear!
121
00:09:52,024 --> 00:09:55,068
Don't talk such nonsense
before my important day!
122
00:09:56,495 --> 00:09:58,234
Forgive me!
123
00:09:58,234 --> 00:09:59,231
No!
124
00:10:42,141 --> 00:10:43,208
Armor...
125
00:10:50,783 --> 00:10:52,727
Remember, Tojiro...
126
00:10:52,727 --> 00:10:55,007
The beginning is
always important.
127
00:10:55,321 --> 00:10:59,288
Always remain calm
before your men.
128
00:10:59,288 --> 00:11:03,270
Mother, I am no coward.
129
00:11:04,296 --> 00:11:05,933
That's the spirit!
130
00:11:05,933 --> 00:11:11,575
Fight bravely and bring
home enemy heads!
131
00:11:11,575 --> 00:11:13,001
I will.
132
00:11:23,149 --> 00:11:25,354
After the ceremonies for battle,
133
00:11:25,354 --> 00:11:31,352
Terumune's army went to the
Hachiman Shrine at Yanagawa.
134
00:11:31,352 --> 00:11:35,457
They prayed to the Date
guardian deity for victory.
135
00:11:39,999 --> 00:11:42,006
Listen well, men!
136
00:11:42,334 --> 00:11:46,608
We have already clashed
with the Soma over ten times.
137
00:11:46,608 --> 00:11:50,345
Rusu Masakage and the others
have crushed enemy forces!
138
00:11:51,377 --> 00:11:54,055
Once our Yonezawa force arrive,
139
00:11:54,380 --> 00:11:57,790
we can defeat the Soma
in one fell swoop...
140
00:11:57,790 --> 00:12:00,954
and settle an old score!
141
00:12:02,588 --> 00:12:03,759
Mark this well!
142
00:12:04,790 --> 00:12:08,132
This is Tojiro-Masamune's
first battle!
143
00:12:09,817 --> 00:12:13,533
The god of war will
surely protect us!
144
00:12:17,887 --> 00:12:19,083
Onward!
145
00:12:35,454 --> 00:12:39,694
Terumune led 4,000 men
against the Soma...
146
00:12:39,694 --> 00:12:42,892
and made his camp at
Kakuda Castle, Igu County.
147
00:12:44,294 --> 00:12:45,806
With allied armies,
148
00:12:46,172 --> 00:12:49,550
they had 12,000 soldiers.
149
00:13:12,525 --> 00:13:14,364
Have some wild boar, my lord.
150
00:13:14,364 --> 00:13:15,337
No!
151
00:13:16,862 --> 00:13:18,829
Some wine?
152
00:13:25,537 --> 00:13:28,005
Relax, Tojiro.
153
00:13:28,374 --> 00:13:30,245
You seem quite worked up.
154
00:13:31,076 --> 00:13:34,789
Sire, Lord Hatakeyama has arrived.
155
00:13:34,789 --> 00:13:37,719
He has?
Show him in.
156
00:13:37,719 --> 00:13:39,717
Come in.
157
00:13:54,767 --> 00:13:58,041
I'm honored to be
granted an audience.
158
00:13:59,071 --> 00:14:03,138
I am Hatakeyama
Yoshitsugu of Nihonmatsu.
159
00:14:04,176 --> 00:14:05,517
I am Terumune.
160
00:14:06,545 --> 00:14:11,317
Thank you for coming
personally to see me.
161
00:14:11,951 --> 00:14:16,918
To aid us, Lord Hatakeyama
has sent 50 cavaliers...
162
00:14:16,918 --> 00:14:18,918
and a hundred guns
for foot soldiers.
163
00:14:19,558 --> 00:14:24,029
Excellent!
I am most grateful.
164
00:14:24,029 --> 00:14:29,274
I have always been
friends with Sanemoto.
165
00:14:29,274 --> 00:14:33,472
When I heard you were arriving,
166
00:14:33,472 --> 00:14:37,040
I wished to send a small
token of my good will.
167
00:14:37,040 --> 00:14:42,048
I understand this is the
young lord's first battle.
168
00:14:42,481 --> 00:14:44,084
Congratulations.
169
00:14:44,084 --> 00:14:45,889
I thank you again.
170
00:14:45,889 --> 00:14:46,827
Tojiro.
171
00:14:46,827 --> 00:14:47,887
Yes.
172
00:14:48,921 --> 00:14:52,694
I am Date Tojiro-Masamune.
Pleased to meet you.
173
00:14:52,694 --> 00:14:57,692
I pray that Hachiman,
god of war, will protect you.
174
00:15:00,599 --> 00:15:02,872
Let us drink.
175
00:15:02,872 --> 00:15:03,470
Thank you.
176
00:15:03,470 --> 00:15:05,275
Go ahead.
177
00:15:05,275 --> 00:15:09,714
The lord of Nihonmatsu
Castle was a fearless warrior,
178
00:15:09,714 --> 00:15:12,006
but his clan was small.
179
00:15:12,711 --> 00:15:17,553
However, Terumune considered the
personal visit a good omen,
180
00:15:17,553 --> 00:15:24,686
even if he might have
come to spy on them.
181
00:16:16,175 --> 00:16:18,048
We should go back.
182
00:16:18,477 --> 00:16:19,852
Not yet!
183
00:16:19,852 --> 00:16:21,345
The horses need water.
184
00:16:38,630 --> 00:16:40,632
It's useless to fight!
...Retreat!
185
00:16:47,773 --> 00:16:48,740
Young lord!
186
00:16:53,078 --> 00:16:54,885
Get him!
187
00:16:54,885 --> 00:16:56,180
That's the young lord!
188
00:17:00,319 --> 00:17:02,763
Kuniyori!
189
00:17:04,690 --> 00:17:06,057
No, sire!
190
00:17:13,198 --> 00:17:14,040
Sire!
191
00:17:18,070 --> 00:17:19,037
Sire!
192
00:17:27,312 --> 00:17:28,887
Insolent curs!
193
00:17:29,214 --> 00:17:32,215
Why did you leave camp
without permission?!
194
00:17:32,215 --> 00:17:33,422
Forgive us!
195
00:17:33,422 --> 00:17:35,123
Who suggested it?!
196
00:17:35,123 --> 00:17:39,432
I did. I wanted our lord to
see the aftermath of battle.
197
00:17:39,432 --> 00:17:40,936
I asked to see!
198
00:17:40,936 --> 00:17:42,096
Fool!
199
00:17:43,128 --> 00:17:46,868
What if common footsoldiers
had taken your head?!
200
00:17:46,868 --> 00:17:48,670
I regret my error!
201
00:17:48,670 --> 00:17:50,337
War is not a game!
202
00:17:50,337 --> 00:17:51,540
Forgive me!
203
00:17:51,540 --> 00:17:53,014
Why didn't you stop him?
204
00:17:53,014 --> 00:17:55,743
I am terribly sorry, sir!
205
00:17:55,743 --> 00:17:59,220
Sire, you are right
to be angry,
206
00:17:59,220 --> 00:18:01,654
but the young lord
fought most bravely!
207
00:18:01,654 --> 00:18:03,749
he cut down the attackers,
208
00:18:03,749 --> 00:18:06,123
and fought with great fury!
209
00:18:06,123 --> 00:18:09,324
Thereby saving my life!
210
00:18:09,555 --> 00:18:11,026
That was wrong!
211
00:18:13,092 --> 00:18:16,366
For disobeying,
you are all confined to camp...
212
00:18:16,366 --> 00:18:18,964
till further notice!
213
00:18:18,964 --> 00:18:20,004
Yes.
214
00:18:26,071 --> 00:18:27,213
Kojuro.
215
00:18:28,941 --> 00:18:31,544
You're getting swell-headed,
aren't you?
216
00:18:32,978 --> 00:18:37,613
You get promoted by currying
favor with Lord Terumune...
217
00:18:37,916 --> 00:18:40,007
and ignore your superiors!
218
00:18:40,619 --> 00:18:41,892
What do you mean?
219
00:18:41,892 --> 00:18:49,165
Today, you ignored me and
gave orders to the men!
220
00:18:49,495 --> 00:18:50,404
Is that true?
221
00:18:50,929 --> 00:18:52,202
Outrageous.
222
00:18:53,232 --> 00:18:55,267
I humbly apologize.
223
00:18:55,267 --> 00:18:58,403
Your orders confused the men,
224
00:18:58,403 --> 00:19:00,506
and two footsoldiers were killed.
225
00:19:01,540 --> 00:19:04,402
Become a bonze and apologize
to Lord Terumune!
226
00:19:05,911 --> 00:19:08,480
Are you listening, Kojuro?
227
00:19:09,515 --> 00:19:11,220
I am Lord Tojiro's guardian.
228
00:19:11,220 --> 00:19:12,355
So what?!
229
00:19:12,985 --> 00:19:20,622
In performing my duties, I may,
at time, offend my comrades.
230
00:19:21,493 --> 00:19:23,403
"Comrades?"
231
00:19:23,403 --> 00:19:26,406
You insolent greenhorn!
232
00:19:26,406 --> 00:19:27,465
Pardon!
233
00:19:28,000 --> 00:19:29,000
Wait, Kojuro!
234
00:19:29,268 --> 00:19:29,973
Let me go.
235
00:19:29,973 --> 00:19:31,036
Insolent!
236
00:19:31,036 --> 00:19:33,036
Stop it, Kojuro!
237
00:19:36,141 --> 00:19:39,085
You're a sneaking rat!
238
00:19:40,612 --> 00:19:44,322
You plan to manipulate
Lord Tojiro and take over!
239
00:19:44,322 --> 00:19:46,293
I have no such intention!
240
00:19:46,293 --> 00:19:48,318
Then watch what you say!
241
00:19:48,318 --> 00:19:49,490
Know your place!
242
00:19:49,490 --> 00:19:51,624
Enough!
243
00:19:51,624 --> 00:19:53,692
We are at war.
244
00:19:54,726 --> 00:19:56,293
Calm down, Kojuro.
245
00:20:06,104 --> 00:20:08,048
Please forgive me!
246
00:20:09,575 --> 00:20:14,016
Enough. Let's drink and make up.
247
00:20:27,359 --> 00:20:29,701
When you were
surrounded by the enemy,
248
00:20:32,029 --> 00:20:33,969
what were your thoughts?
249
00:20:35,000 --> 00:20:40,069
At first, I cowered in fright.
250
00:20:42,407 --> 00:20:45,918
But after crossing
swords several times,
251
00:20:45,918 --> 00:20:47,254
I felt calm.
252
00:20:49,381 --> 00:20:52,291
The blood raced through me.
253
00:20:52,291 --> 00:20:54,620
And racing about was almost fun.
254
00:20:55,454 --> 00:20:57,625
With the enemy so near,
255
00:20:57,625 --> 00:21:02,032
the moment of truth
was thrilling!
256
00:21:02,032 --> 00:21:03,231
Despicable.
257
00:21:03,231 --> 00:21:04,172
What?
258
00:21:07,699 --> 00:21:09,336
Mark me, Tojiro...
259
00:21:10,369 --> 00:21:15,038
At times, a general
must be a coward.
260
00:21:19,011 --> 00:21:22,353
If he fails, the battle is lost.
261
00:21:22,353 --> 00:21:24,859
The entire clan will be lost.
262
00:21:24,859 --> 00:21:27,020
So you must not die.
263
00:21:29,054 --> 00:21:32,096
Your duty is to live as the
strength of the clan.
264
00:21:33,425 --> 00:21:34,392
Yes.
265
00:21:38,530 --> 00:21:41,104
That is not true for retainers.
266
00:21:41,833 --> 00:21:44,538
It is their duty to die for their lord.
267
00:21:45,570 --> 00:21:50,037
Therein lies the true
meaning of loyalty.
268
00:21:57,716 --> 00:22:01,683
That's how samurai is.
269
00:22:04,489 --> 00:22:08,933
A general and his vassals are...
270
00:22:08,933 --> 00:22:13,927
...facing each other over death.
271
00:22:33,952 --> 00:22:35,009
Father.
272
00:22:36,621 --> 00:22:38,088
I am sorry.
273
00:23:09,955 --> 00:23:11,062
Reporting!
274
00:23:11,790 --> 00:23:14,557
The young lord has returned.
275
00:23:23,502 --> 00:23:29,271
Tojiro had returned to Yonezawa
after a month at battle.
276
00:23:52,063 --> 00:23:54,007
Welcome home.
277
00:23:54,007 --> 00:23:55,271
Have you been well?
278
00:23:55,271 --> 00:23:56,237
Yes.
279
00:23:56,468 --> 00:24:00,035
I am happy that you are safe.
280
00:24:05,010 --> 00:24:07,588
Is the war over?
281
00:24:08,013 --> 00:24:12,092
Not for a long while.
The Soma are strong.
282
00:24:12,092 --> 00:24:17,785
I will rest and wait for word
from Father. I go back soon.
283
00:24:19,191 --> 00:24:21,158
Oh...
284
00:24:27,132 --> 00:24:28,776
I'll bring something to eat.
285
00:24:29,601 --> 00:24:33,236
No. I must pay my
respects to Mother.
286
00:24:41,913 --> 00:24:45,084
Congratulations
on your safe return.
287
00:24:45,084 --> 00:24:46,787
Thank you.
288
00:24:46,787 --> 00:24:49,353
You've grown to be
a fine warrior.
289
00:24:49,353 --> 00:24:51,797
I'm taller now.
290
00:24:51,797 --> 00:24:53,267
Have you taken enemy heads?
291
00:24:53,267 --> 00:24:58,001
Several, but I engaged no
high-ranking officers.
292
00:24:58,230 --> 00:25:02,105
They say you fought
common footsoldiers.
293
00:25:02,105 --> 00:25:03,371
Yes.
294
00:25:03,371 --> 00:25:07,572
The future lord of the Date
must not do such things.
295
00:25:07,572 --> 00:25:09,084
Most unseemly!
296
00:25:09,084 --> 00:25:11,649
I didn't look to engage them!
297
00:25:11,977 --> 00:25:14,746
I could not help it.
298
00:25:15,080 --> 00:25:18,547
They say you committed
a breach of discipline.
299
00:25:19,584 --> 00:25:23,187
Sir Munefuyu was complaining
the other day.
300
00:25:23,187 --> 00:25:25,960
He fears for the
future of the Date.
301
00:25:25,960 --> 00:25:27,066
I'm sorry.
302
00:25:27,392 --> 00:25:31,671
If word gets out,
you will be laughed at.
303
00:25:31,671 --> 00:25:34,799
They'll say you are not
fit to be a general.
304
00:25:34,799 --> 00:25:38,777
And Mego is still not
accustomed to our ways.
305
00:25:38,777 --> 00:25:41,542
She avoids you.
306
00:25:41,542 --> 00:25:46,044
A fine pair you make.
307
00:25:47,779 --> 00:25:48,946
Jikumaru...
308
00:25:55,720 --> 00:25:58,323
Welcome home, Brother.
309
00:25:59,357 --> 00:26:02,062
Have you finished
penmanship practice?
310
00:26:02,062 --> 00:26:03,502
Yes.
311
00:26:06,031 --> 00:26:08,998
Look at that ink...!
312
00:26:18,810 --> 00:26:20,777
It doesn't come off.
313
00:26:50,709 --> 00:26:52,209
What's the matter?
314
00:26:52,209 --> 00:26:53,212
Begone!
315
00:26:53,845 --> 00:26:56,652
Has something offended you?
316
00:26:56,652 --> 00:26:59,950
Mother hates me.
317
00:27:00,919 --> 00:27:02,453
That's not true!
318
00:27:02,453 --> 00:27:03,592
She hates me!
319
00:27:06,224 --> 00:27:11,534
Lady of the East is with child.
320
00:27:12,530 --> 00:27:14,074
With child?
321
00:27:14,499 --> 00:27:19,006
That is probably why
she is irritable.
322
00:27:50,468 --> 00:27:54,414
I worried about you every day.
323
00:27:54,414 --> 00:27:56,108
I don't want to talk!
324
00:27:58,043 --> 00:27:59,316
Leave me alone!
325
00:27:59,316 --> 00:28:01,611
I want to be with you!
326
00:28:05,784 --> 00:28:07,694
Before you left for battle,
327
00:28:07,694 --> 00:28:10,425
you were gentle with me,
328
00:28:12,457 --> 00:28:17,496
but my words were unworthy
of a samurai's wife.
329
00:28:17,496 --> 00:28:18,666
Enough.
330
00:28:18,666 --> 00:28:23,175
I'm not fit!
I cannot be a warlord!
331
00:28:23,175 --> 00:28:24,474
My lord...
332
00:28:24,474 --> 00:28:26,480
I can hear them.
333
00:28:26,480 --> 00:28:29,141
The vassals are laughing at me!
334
00:28:29,141 --> 00:28:35,043
No. You are compassionate!
And strong!
335
00:28:36,715 --> 00:28:39,716
I know you are.
336
00:28:39,716 --> 00:28:41,320
Don't try to comfort me!
337
00:28:41,320 --> 00:28:47,221
Aren't you the
reincarnation of St. Mankai?
338
00:29:02,874 --> 00:29:07,041
I care for you.
339
00:29:08,313 --> 00:29:11,522
Whatever trials there be,
340
00:29:11,522 --> 00:29:14,652
I will stay by your side forever!
341
00:29:15,687 --> 00:29:19,654
You are my only
reason for living.
342
00:29:29,067 --> 00:29:32,609
I was terribly
lonely without you...
343
00:29:36,307 --> 00:29:37,351
Mego...
344
00:29:40,779 --> 00:29:41,846
My lord...
345
00:29:55,059 --> 00:29:58,333
The war with Soma dragged on.
346
00:29:59,364 --> 00:30:02,709
Meanwhile, Terumune,
with diplomacy and foresight,
347
00:30:02,709 --> 00:30:07,701
exchanged gifts and letters
with Oda Nobunaga's vassals,
348
00:30:07,701 --> 00:30:09,701
such as Shibata Katsuie.
349
00:30:11,609 --> 00:30:13,644
You're leaving Yonezawa?!
350
00:30:13,644 --> 00:30:14,615
Yes.
351
00:30:15,346 --> 00:30:17,085
There are turbulent times.
352
00:30:17,085 --> 00:30:20,855
I cannot be a lowly
samurai forever.
353
00:30:21,886 --> 00:30:24,330
I shall resign as guardian
to Lord Tojiro...
354
00:30:24,330 --> 00:30:27,697
win the favor of a lord...
355
00:30:27,697 --> 00:30:32,692
and earn a name that
will live in history.
356
00:30:33,464 --> 00:30:36,065
You can do it here.
357
00:30:37,001 --> 00:30:41,273
I can see that Lord
Terumune likes you.
358
00:30:41,273 --> 00:30:45,307
As Lord Tojiro's advisor,
you will be heavily relied upon.
359
00:30:45,307 --> 00:30:50,016
I have given this careful thought.
360
00:30:50,949 --> 00:30:55,250
Please understand,
and let me go!
361
00:31:05,930 --> 00:31:08,067
Where will you go?
362
00:31:09,601 --> 00:31:12,977
For now, I will go to
Lord Takeda in Kai,
363
00:31:12,977 --> 00:31:15,141
or Lord Hojo in Odawara.
364
00:31:16,174 --> 00:31:19,413
With good fortune,
I shall be a leader...
365
00:31:19,413 --> 00:31:23,411
and show those Date retainers.
366
00:31:25,116 --> 00:31:26,383
I understand.
367
00:31:30,388 --> 00:31:32,005
Thank you, Sister.
368
00:31:37,788 --> 00:31:41,005
Kakuda Castle
369
00:31:47,705 --> 00:31:48,644
Sire!
370
00:31:49,474 --> 00:31:53,010
Kuniyori?
What's the matter?
371
00:31:53,010 --> 00:31:57,616
I would like to be
relieved of duty.
372
00:31:58,649 --> 00:32:00,218
Why?
373
00:32:01,252 --> 00:32:03,362
Have you grown
disgusted with war?
374
00:32:05,189 --> 00:32:09,402
The disgust is with my own self.
375
00:32:11,429 --> 00:32:13,036
Your own self?
376
00:32:13,765 --> 00:32:16,572
You are such a great man,
377
00:32:16,572 --> 00:32:22,212
I am disgusted at
my own foolishness.
378
00:32:22,212 --> 00:32:23,843
Pull yourself together!
379
00:32:25,877 --> 00:32:30,514
At times, passions even
make me forget myself.
380
00:32:31,416 --> 00:32:36,053
But I remember my men who
bear the cold and hunger...
381
00:32:36,053 --> 00:32:40,622
giving their all
for the Date Clan.
382
00:32:41,693 --> 00:32:44,064
A lord must repay such efforts.
383
00:32:44,395 --> 00:32:46,169
My gratefulness
knows no bounds.
384
00:32:46,399 --> 00:32:52,166
However, you are too
trusting of your vassals.
385
00:32:53,604 --> 00:32:54,773
What?
386
00:32:57,208 --> 00:33:01,016
Is there a traitor in our midst?
387
00:33:01,016 --> 00:33:02,045
Yes.
388
00:33:02,580 --> 00:33:04,007
At least one.
389
00:33:09,354 --> 00:33:10,593
Who is it?
390
00:33:12,623 --> 00:33:16,993
It is I, Kuniyori.
391
00:33:21,432 --> 00:33:26,669
When I came as
Princess Yoshi's attendant,
392
00:33:26,669 --> 00:33:28,579
I was prepared to kill you...!
393
00:33:28,579 --> 00:33:30,175
I know.
394
00:33:33,211 --> 00:33:37,178
That's why I purposely
kept you near me.
395
00:33:38,383 --> 00:33:40,061
My word!
396
00:33:40,885 --> 00:33:44,159
I eagerly anticipated your attack.
397
00:33:44,689 --> 00:33:46,860
There were many opportunities.
398
00:33:46,860 --> 00:33:54,867
But I found myself unable
to draw my sword.
399
00:33:56,501 --> 00:34:03,636
Now, I am fully devoted to
your strength of character.
400
00:34:04,509 --> 00:34:08,948
Moreover, Lord Tojiro
even saved my life.
401
00:34:09,981 --> 00:34:12,788
To draw my sword against you...
402
00:34:12,788 --> 00:34:15,284
would disgrace me as a samurai!
403
00:34:16,320 --> 00:34:21,723
To serve as an example
to your vassals,
404
00:34:22,760 --> 00:34:26,027
please cut off my head!
405
00:34:28,099 --> 00:34:30,009
Fine resolve.
406
00:34:31,035 --> 00:34:32,002
Face front!
407
00:34:48,586 --> 00:34:50,008
That should do it.
408
00:34:53,458 --> 00:34:56,163
You are reborn.
409
00:34:57,195 --> 00:35:00,003
Now serve the Date.
410
00:35:01,532 --> 00:35:02,606
Then...?
411
00:35:05,837 --> 00:35:07,308
You are reborn, I say!
412
00:35:09,040 --> 00:35:10,043
Sire!
413
00:35:11,676 --> 00:35:17,120
My mind is clear now!
I have no more doubts!
414
00:35:18,149 --> 00:35:21,016
I will obey your orders.
415
00:35:21,652 --> 00:35:24,089
As long as there is
a sun in heaven,
416
00:35:25,823 --> 00:35:32,062
I will serve the Date all my days!
417
00:36:06,998 --> 00:36:08,203
That's all you're taking?
418
00:36:09,233 --> 00:36:10,177
Yes.
419
00:36:11,589 --> 00:36:15,333
A pitiful leave taking
for a new beginning.
420
00:36:18,983 --> 00:36:20,236
You should not go.
421
00:36:20,236 --> 00:36:25,557
Your lord is Tojiro-Masamune.
422
00:36:25,983 --> 00:36:28,256
You cannot serve two masters.
423
00:36:28,256 --> 00:36:29,661
What are you saying?!
424
00:36:29,661 --> 00:36:32,563
Have you forgotten?
425
00:36:32,563 --> 00:36:36,534
When they questioned Lord
Tojiro's ability to lead,
426
00:36:36,534 --> 00:36:38,562
you spoke against them!
427
00:36:39,597 --> 00:36:41,802
You said he shows
uncommon promise...
428
00:36:41,802 --> 00:36:45,174
and someday he will
be a great lord!
429
00:36:45,174 --> 00:36:48,545
How can you abandon him
and go elsewhere?!
430
00:36:48,545 --> 00:36:50,444
There's no greater
disloyalty for a guardian!
431
00:36:51,275 --> 00:36:53,082
You gave your consent!
432
00:36:54,111 --> 00:36:58,585
If I refused, it would have
made things worse.
433
00:36:59,016 --> 00:37:02,892
You would have run off.
434
00:37:03,921 --> 00:37:08,257
I believed, in time,
you would come to your senses!
435
00:37:08,257 --> 00:37:12,429
Absurd!
It's too late, now!
436
00:37:13,464 --> 00:37:19,633
I sold my meager belongings
and bade farewell to friends.
437
00:37:21,806 --> 00:37:23,375
Such foolishness.
438
00:37:26,410 --> 00:37:29,077
What will Lord Tojiro
do without you?!
439
00:37:39,857 --> 00:37:41,631
Sister!
440
00:37:44,662 --> 00:37:46,002
Listen to me, Kojuro.
441
00:37:48,099 --> 00:37:51,373
Would a daimyo employ
and rely upon...
442
00:37:51,373 --> 00:37:56,505
such a shabbily dressed samurai?
443
00:37:57,408 --> 00:37:59,613
Even if you do succeed,
444
00:37:59,613 --> 00:38:02,986
successful warriors incur
the jealousy of others.
445
00:38:04,015 --> 00:38:10,004
They will say you are
impudent, an upstart.
446
00:38:12,123 --> 00:38:15,090
What should I do, then?!
447
00:38:18,029 --> 00:38:23,100
I'm at the end of my rope!
448
00:38:28,699 --> 00:38:31,960
Compose yourself.
449
00:38:33,811 --> 00:38:37,778
And think of Yonezawa
as a new land.
450
00:38:45,089 --> 00:38:48,465
Be determined,
as if in a new land,
451
00:38:48,465 --> 00:38:50,595
and serve Lord Tojiro.
452
00:38:51,629 --> 00:38:54,371
Then you can withstand
any leadership.
453
00:38:56,000 --> 00:38:59,274
If you serve the Date
with distinction,
454
00:38:59,274 --> 00:39:04,645
you will never be called
immoral or disloyal.
455
00:39:04,645 --> 00:39:06,640
You can make a name
for yourself.
456
00:39:30,468 --> 00:39:32,002
In Tensho 10 (1582),
457
00:39:32,002 --> 00:39:35,741
as if they had waited
for the snow to melt,
458
00:39:35,741 --> 00:39:38,217
the Date and Soma returned
to war in earnest.
459
00:39:38,217 --> 00:39:40,243
Sally out!
460
00:39:41,079 --> 00:39:46,746
Then with the surrender of
Soma ally, Sato Kunai,
461
00:39:46,746 --> 00:39:50,751
the tide turned
in favor of the Date.
462
00:39:58,062 --> 00:40:00,097
The enemy are retreating.
463
00:40:00,097 --> 00:40:02,007
They cannot hold us off.
464
00:40:02,533 --> 00:40:04,033
The second guard has started out.
465
00:40:04,568 --> 00:40:06,875
The leader is Lord Tojiro.
466
00:40:06,875 --> 00:40:08,404
What?
467
00:40:08,404 --> 00:40:12,041
Right. The sparrow-bamboo crest.
468
00:40:12,977 --> 00:40:15,182
I doubt that he will ever change.
469
00:40:15,182 --> 00:40:17,553
He seems to love to fight.
470
00:40:17,553 --> 00:40:20,150
That's Kojuro close at his side.
471
00:40:38,302 --> 00:40:42,337
Lord Munetoki of
Kakuda Castle, dead...
472
00:40:45,075 --> 00:40:48,017
Chamberlain Harada Munemasa,
killed.
473
00:40:48,446 --> 00:40:50,022
Heroic deaths.
474
00:40:52,349 --> 00:40:58,452
Hopeless! I wish I could
lead them myself!
475
00:41:00,825 --> 00:41:02,335
Are they losing?
476
00:41:03,060 --> 00:41:07,462
By no means! Our forces
win victory upon victory.
477
00:41:07,462 --> 00:41:11,806
The Date will easily
gain control of Igu County.
478
00:41:11,806 --> 00:41:14,109
How is Tojiro?
479
00:41:14,109 --> 00:41:16,514
He performs admirably!
480
00:41:16,514 --> 00:41:22,413
He led 300 and the 2nd guard
and routed the enemy.
481
00:41:23,447 --> 00:41:26,550
I hope he doesn't
get himself hurt.
482
00:41:27,585 --> 00:41:31,062
Lady of the East was prone
to fits of depression.
483
00:41:32,389 --> 00:41:36,129
The baby girl born
in December was weak,
484
00:41:36,129 --> 00:41:39,100
and died within three months.
485
00:41:40,931 --> 00:41:44,375
The Tate successor
will be his son Munezane,
486
00:41:44,375 --> 00:41:47,208
The Harada successor will be
nephew Samanosuke.
487
00:41:47,208 --> 00:41:49,079
Send out the decree.
488
00:41:49,079 --> 00:41:50,481
Yes, sir!
489
00:41:50,481 --> 00:41:52,486
How are we holding
against the Watari?
490
00:41:52,486 --> 00:41:57,477
My son Shigemune
and Rusu Masakage...
491
00:41:57,477 --> 00:42:00,387
have readied their troops.
Fear not.
492
00:42:00,387 --> 00:42:04,384
How about leaving Kakuda and
making camp in Kosai Castle?
493
00:42:04,384 --> 00:42:08,058
It's still too soon. Yoshitane will
come to retake Kosai.
494
00:42:08,058 --> 00:42:13,163
Heaven is on our side.
We should strike now.
495
00:42:13,163 --> 00:42:15,302
What about our provisions?
496
00:42:15,302 --> 00:42:17,037
Nearly depleted.
497
00:42:17,037 --> 00:42:20,534
Sagetsu is rounding up
the farmers' hidden supplies.
498
00:42:20,534 --> 00:42:22,844
Harvests were poor this year.
499
00:42:22,844 --> 00:42:24,817
The countryside
became a battlefield.
500
00:42:24,817 --> 00:42:28,086
Farmers could not
plant or harvest.
501
00:42:30,581 --> 00:42:31,354
Pardon!
502
00:42:31,354 --> 00:42:32,553
What is it?
503
00:42:32,553 --> 00:42:37,085
A great disaster occurred in Kyoto.
504
00:42:58,642 --> 00:43:01,484
Oda Nobunaga was killed.
505
00:43:02,346 --> 00:43:03,313
What?
506
00:43:08,185 --> 00:43:11,390
One June 2nd,
507
00:43:11,390 --> 00:43:16,901
Oda Nobunaga was attacked at
Honnoji by Akechi Mitsuhide,
508
00:43:16,901 --> 00:43:19,962
and killed himself.
509
00:43:41,141 --> 00:43:45,432
