1
00:00:11,158 --> 00:00:16,767
American football players change
formations for different situations.
2
00:00:18,271 --> 00:00:23,684
During Masamune's time,
there was something similar to this.
3
00:00:29,972 --> 00:00:33,173
Battle formations were called "jinkei."
4
00:00:45,739 --> 00:00:49,711
The commander-in-chief decided
which formation to use.
5
00:00:49,711 --> 00:00:52,653
The choice of the
right formation...
6
00:00:52,653 --> 00:00:56,651
often turned the
tide of battle.
7
00:00:58,051 --> 00:01:02,161
One unit within a formation
was called "sonae."
8
00:01:03,190 --> 00:01:06,099
Sonae were independent units
composed of footsoldiers,
9
00:01:06,099 --> 00:01:10,836
horsemen, supply corps,
and others.
10
00:01:10,836 --> 00:01:13,811
The commanders of
such units...
11
00:01:13,811 --> 00:01:16,573
were the likes of
Shigezane and Kojuro.
12
00:01:17,904 --> 00:01:21,876
A "sonae" could number
as many as a thousand.
13
00:01:26,646 --> 00:01:28,887
June, 1589...
14
00:01:28,887 --> 00:01:33,523
The battle at Suriagehara
against the Ashina...
15
00:01:33,523 --> 00:01:37,025
was to determine
who would control Ou.
16
00:01:40,727 --> 00:01:45,769
The Ashina had 13 "sonae;"
the Date had 8.
17
00:01:45,769 --> 00:01:50,272
What strategy was
Masamune planning?
18
00:01:52,640 --> 00:01:59,480
MASAMUNE,
THE ONE-EYED DRAGON

34
00:04:25,892 --> 00:04:33,303
June 4, 1589, after entering
Inawashiro Castle,
35
00:04:33,303 --> 00:04:36,140
Date Shigezane
surveyed the area.
36
00:04:36,970 --> 00:04:42,444
In order to aid Masamune's
main army against Ashina,
37
00:04:42,444 --> 00:04:45,285
Shigezane planned to
sacrifice himself...
38
00:04:45,285 --> 00:04:50,284
and lure the enemy
to Inawashiro.
39
00:04:54,921 --> 00:04:55,893
Sire...
40
00:05:07,334 --> 00:05:10,141
I thought you were the enemy.
41
00:05:10,141 --> 00:05:12,046
Preliminary inspection?
42
00:05:12,472 --> 00:05:13,780
You, too?
43
00:05:13,780 --> 00:05:15,844
The enemy is three
times stronger.
44
00:05:15,844 --> 00:05:19,015
We must rely on strategy.
45
00:05:19,015 --> 00:05:22,390
Before we're surrounded,
we must fight.
46
00:05:23,216 --> 00:05:26,255
It will decided
at Suriagehara.
47
00:05:27,287 --> 00:05:30,099
Let's fight our hardest.
48
00:05:31,124 --> 00:05:33,003
This might be our last battle.
49
00:05:34,027 --> 00:05:38,902
Let's show Aizu what
the Date are made of.
50
00:05:39,933 --> 00:05:41,310
These woods will be useful.
51
00:05:41,310 --> 00:05:42,813
Indeed.
52
00:05:42,813 --> 00:05:44,509
If we're lucky...
53
00:05:44,509 --> 00:05:47,007
hidden gunners can
tell Ashina Yoshihiro.
54
00:05:48,041 --> 00:05:50,612
They'll cross that bridge.
55
00:05:51,444 --> 00:05:55,127
After they cross
we'll burn it down.
56
00:05:56,150 --> 00:06:00,022
Good idea.
That'll frustrate them.
57
00:06:09,362 --> 00:06:13,367
The Old Lord came
to me in a dream.
58
00:06:13,367 --> 00:06:14,845
Father?
59
00:06:14,845 --> 00:06:18,715
He said Masamune faces
the crisis of his life.
60
00:06:19,739 --> 00:06:23,886
The battle with the Ashina
will probably begin.
61
00:06:25,612 --> 00:06:28,555
Nuinosuke, has
Yamagata sent a reply?
62
00:06:28,555 --> 00:06:30,461
Not yet, my lady.
63
00:06:32,485 --> 00:06:38,429
Without Mogami help,
it's difficult to defeat Aizu.
64
00:06:39,459 --> 00:06:42,833
I'll write another letter.
Deliver it immediately.
65
00:06:42,833 --> 00:06:45,172
Yes, my lady.
66
00:06:46,300 --> 00:06:49,371
Please don't, Mother.
67
00:06:49,371 --> 00:06:51,248
What?
68
00:06:53,273 --> 00:06:58,320
Lord Masamune says never to
show weakness to anyone.
69
00:06:58,320 --> 00:07:02,418
The fate of the Date
rests with this battle.
70
00:07:02,418 --> 00:07:05,658
Shouldn't we help in any
way we can?
71
00:07:05,658 --> 00:07:08,928
We should not go
against his wishes.
72
00:07:08,928 --> 00:07:10,696
You want us to lose?!
73
00:07:10,696 --> 00:07:12,227
We won't!
74
00:07:13,259 --> 00:07:17,231
Lord Masamune is the
reincarnation of St. Mankai.
75
00:07:22,569 --> 00:07:27,408
Inawashiro Morikuni had let
his eldest son succeed him,
76
00:07:27,408 --> 00:07:29,249
but they argued over which
side to join,
77
00:07:29,249 --> 00:07:33,815
so Morikuni reclaimed
the castle by force.
78
00:07:33,815 --> 00:07:37,593
The enemy forces have
reached Kurokawa Castle.
79
00:07:38,218 --> 00:07:40,994
They number about 20,000.
80
00:07:40,994 --> 00:07:42,931
In full force?
81
00:07:42,931 --> 00:07:47,833
Ashina Yoshihiro must
really despise me.
82
00:07:47,833 --> 00:07:49,568
Don't worry.
83
00:07:49,568 --> 00:07:54,377
Though few, the Date are all
experienced fighters.
84
00:07:54,377 --> 00:07:57,007
I will fight, too.
85
00:07:57,007 --> 00:08:01,451
Let me lead the
advance guard.
86
00:08:01,451 --> 00:08:03,010
Reporting!
87
00:08:03,010 --> 00:08:07,716
Our lord's main army
will soon arrive!
88
00:08:07,716 --> 00:08:08,452
What?
89
00:08:08,452 --> 00:08:10,291
Don't talk nonsense!
90
00:08:11,317 --> 00:08:15,059
A messenger just came
to announce it!
91
00:08:15,059 --> 00:08:18,898
It's a lie!
An enemy trick.
92
00:08:18,898 --> 00:08:23,341
Investigate. I told Lord Masamune
to go to Motomiya.
93
00:08:24,197 --> 00:08:25,334
Wait.
94
00:08:26,766 --> 00:08:31,174
Knowing Lord Masamune,
it might be true.
95
00:08:50,890 --> 00:08:51,862
Sire!
96
00:09:17,083 --> 00:09:18,460
Has the battle begun?
97
00:09:19,619 --> 00:09:22,008
The fighting hasn't
started yet.
98
00:09:22,522 --> 00:09:27,008
Good.
6,000 men will come soon.
99
00:09:27,427 --> 00:09:30,538
I said help was
not necessary.
100
00:09:31,164 --> 00:09:33,508
I couldn't let you
and Kojuro die.
101
00:09:33,508 --> 00:09:38,341
Kojuro and I had planned
to rout the Ashina.
102
00:09:39,372 --> 00:09:44,009
Don't pretend.
Admit you're grateful!
103
00:09:47,780 --> 00:09:51,052
I am grateful and honored.
104
00:09:56,022 --> 00:10:01,271
I am honored to meet you.
I am Inawashiro Morikuni.
105
00:10:01,271 --> 00:10:05,008
I'm Masamune. Thank you for
defecting to our side.
106
00:10:05,008 --> 00:10:06,806
It was an honor.
107
00:10:06,806 --> 00:10:08,780
I'm returning Kamemaru.
108
00:10:10,537 --> 00:10:13,040
I don't want a hostage from you.
109
00:10:13,040 --> 00:10:13,982
Here...
110
00:10:13,982 --> 00:10:15,509
Thank you, sire.
111
00:10:15,509 --> 00:10:16,612
Father!
112
00:10:16,612 --> 00:10:18,320
Kamemaru!
113
00:10:19,946 --> 00:10:23,858
Rest assured, Lord Morikuni.
6,000 more will come.
114
00:10:23,858 --> 00:10:26,090
Those are just the bannermen.
115
00:10:26,090 --> 00:10:28,932
By morning, Munezane's 3,000,
116
00:10:28,932 --> 00:10:32,562
and 2,000 each from Kagetaka,
Sadatsuna, and Chikatsuna.
117
00:10:32,562 --> 00:10:34,435
9,000 in all!
118
00:10:34,435 --> 00:10:35,165
Really?
119
00:10:35,165 --> 00:10:39,877
With the 5,000 already here,
there'll be 20,000 in all.
120
00:10:39,877 --> 00:10:41,276
Thanks heaven!
121
00:10:41,276 --> 00:10:42,837
No one will defend the Sendo!
122
00:10:42,837 --> 00:10:48,074
After we defeat the Ashina,
we'll go back immediately.
123
00:10:48,074 --> 00:10:51,002
The "swift swallow" tactic!
124
00:10:51,811 --> 00:10:56,003
I was right about you.
125
00:10:56,449 --> 00:10:59,259
In all Ou, there is no
greater lord...
126
00:10:59,259 --> 00:11:02,198
than Lord Masamune.
127
00:11:02,198 --> 00:11:07,195
It's too soon for praise!
Save it for tomorrow night.
128
00:11:12,565 --> 00:11:16,611
Bent on destroying Morikuni
for his treachery,
129
00:11:16,611 --> 00:11:23,044
Ashina Yoshihiro set up
camp at Mt. Takamori.
130
00:11:23,576 --> 00:11:28,321
It overlooked Inawashiro Castle,
with Suriagehara in between.
131
00:11:28,848 --> 00:11:33,091
Ashina general Yoshihiro
was seventeen.
132
00:11:33,519 --> 00:11:38,264
His chef advisor was retainer,
Kanagami Moriharu.
133
00:12:19,799 --> 00:12:21,643
It smells of blood.
134
00:12:22,669 --> 00:12:24,809
Absurd.
135
00:12:25,838 --> 00:12:28,148
Your nerves are on edge.
136
00:12:28,148 --> 00:12:29,209
Smell.
137
00:12:44,590 --> 00:12:46,562
A fine fragrance.
138
00:12:51,330 --> 00:12:52,934
Please go to bed.
139
00:12:52,934 --> 00:12:54,774
Kita.
140
00:12:54,774 --> 00:12:56,000
Yes?
141
00:12:56,302 --> 00:13:02,979
Many more will die
in this battle.
142
00:13:02,979 --> 00:13:05,751
Though we may win,
143
00:13:05,751 --> 00:13:08,657
the families of the dead
will grieve.
144
00:13:08,657 --> 00:13:12,151
It's an honor to die
for one's clan.
145
00:13:12,151 --> 00:13:14,927
You truly believe that?
146
00:13:14,927 --> 00:13:16,134
I do.
147
00:13:16,956 --> 00:13:21,601
When your father,
Oniniwa Sagetsu died in battle...
148
00:13:21,601 --> 00:13:23,629
didn't you grieve?
149
00:13:23,629 --> 00:13:28,770
He died a glorious death and
was commended by our lord.
150
00:13:28,770 --> 00:13:30,508
There is no other honor.
151
00:13:30,508 --> 00:13:37,377
Kojuro and Tsunamoto will
fight in this next battle.
152
00:13:37,677 --> 00:13:39,816
If they should lose
their lives,
153
00:13:39,816 --> 00:13:43,027
can you remain calm?
154
00:13:44,751 --> 00:13:48,458
Life is fleeting.
155
00:13:49,922 --> 00:13:54,766
If they can die gloriously
for their clan,
156
00:13:55,094 --> 00:13:58,132
my brothers will be happy.
157
00:13:58,132 --> 00:14:00,667
They will have no regrets.
158
00:14:00,667 --> 00:14:03,048
I cannot accept that!
159
00:14:04,670 --> 00:14:07,651
If Lord Masamune should die,
160
00:14:07,651 --> 00:14:10,620
I would cry out in grief.
161
00:14:10,620 --> 00:14:13,522
I might go mad and
roam the fields.
162
00:14:13,522 --> 00:14:16,650
I might drown myself
to follow my lord in death.
163
00:14:16,650 --> 00:14:18,153
Please stop!
164
00:14:21,187 --> 00:14:23,159
It is unlucky talk.
165
00:14:27,226 --> 00:14:32,274
Marriage is a strange thing.
166
00:14:33,299 --> 00:14:35,969
When we are together,
I feel awkward,
167
00:14:35,969 --> 00:14:37,640
and we become estranged.
168
00:14:37,640 --> 00:14:41,683
But when we are far apart,
169
00:14:41,683 --> 00:14:44,548
I feel tender and
loving toward him.
170
00:14:45,378 --> 00:14:50,286
I pray for his safety
morning and night.
171
00:14:50,286 --> 00:14:53,288
Waiting for his return
grows harder each year.
172
00:15:18,244 --> 00:15:20,781
Oh, great Lord Hachiman...
173
00:15:20,781 --> 00:15:25,785
Make my son strong in battle.
174
00:15:25,785 --> 00:15:28,627
Oh, great Lord Hachiman...
175
00:15:28,627 --> 00:15:32,528
Let Masamune be victorious.
176
00:15:47,807 --> 00:15:51,309
June 5, 1589...
177
00:15:52,078 --> 00:15:57,385
Masamune set his men at the foot
of Mt. Bandai at Suriagehara.
178
00:16:09,228 --> 00:16:14,206
The Date advance guard was led
by Inawashiro Morikuni.
179
00:16:14,206 --> 00:16:17,276
Second guard, Katakura Kojuro.
180
00:16:17,503 --> 00:16:20,041
Third guard, Date Shigezane.
181
00:16:20,573 --> 00:16:23,013
Fourth guard, Shiroishi Munezane.
182
00:16:23,743 --> 00:16:26,152
Fifth guard, Masamune's bannermen.
183
00:16:26,979 --> 00:16:29,226
Rear guard, Hamada Kagetaka.
184
00:16:29,949 --> 00:16:32,059
Left flank, Ouchi Sadatsuna.
185
00:16:32,785 --> 00:16:36,257
Right flank,
Katahira Chikatsuna.
186
00:16:56,976 --> 00:17:00,248
The enemy is charging!
187
00:17:02,248 --> 00:17:04,220
Attack!
188
00:17:31,711 --> 00:17:33,452
The west wind was strong,
189
00:17:33,452 --> 00:17:36,983
and it blew clouds of sand
against the Date,
190
00:17:36,983 --> 00:17:40,192
much to their disadvantage.
191
00:17:41,220 --> 00:17:45,862
Pushed back by the Ashina
general, Tomita Shogen,
192
00:17:45,862 --> 00:17:47,630
the Inawashiro forces retreated.
193
00:17:48,060 --> 00:17:53,366
Katakura's Kokuro's second
guard also foundered.
194
00:17:57,470 --> 00:18:01,082
Gunners, make ready!
195
00:18:01,082 --> 00:18:01,832
Advance!!
196
00:18:11,450 --> 00:18:13,658
All clear!
197
00:18:14,186 --> 00:18:15,658
Attack!
198
00:18:42,982 --> 00:18:45,258
Tomita Shogen!
Fight!
199
00:18:45,785 --> 00:18:49,031
Who are you?!
200
00:18:49,031 --> 00:18:50,627
Date Togoro Shigezane!
201
00:19:40,773 --> 00:19:43,481
Where are the second
and third guards?
202
00:19:43,481 --> 00:19:47,023
Where's Kawauchi?!
...Matsumoto?!
203
00:19:47,546 --> 00:19:50,390
Probably watching
the situation.
204
00:19:50,390 --> 00:19:52,454
Cowards.
205
00:19:53,486 --> 00:19:57,028
Internal unrest had
plagued the Ashina.
206
00:19:57,456 --> 00:20:00,130
A power struggle between
Yoshihiro's men from Satake...
207
00:20:00,130 --> 00:20:04,107
and the Ashina
established retainers.
208
00:20:04,107 --> 00:20:09,666
The seriousness of the rift was
revealed at this crucial battle.
209
00:20:17,143 --> 00:20:19,780
The wind has changed!
210
00:20:21,814 --> 00:20:23,092
Good.
211
00:20:24,216 --> 00:20:25,588
My mount!
212
00:20:39,165 --> 00:20:42,008
The enemy's main body
is charging!
213
00:20:42,601 --> 00:20:45,073
Push them back!
214
00:20:51,757 --> 00:20:52,757
Go!!
215
00:20:57,144 --> 00:20:58,634
Keep charging!!
216
00:21:00,317 --> 00:21:02,587
Keep charging!!
217
00:21:27,012 --> 00:21:31,526
Prepare to die, Masamune!
I'm Kanagami Moriharu!
218
00:21:33,219 --> 00:21:34,391
Stop!
219
00:21:38,657 --> 00:21:40,629
Don't interfere!
220
00:21:54,106 --> 00:21:58,547
Let no man escape!
221
00:22:03,382 --> 00:22:07,524
The wind changed direction in the
afternoon, and the situation turned around.
222
00:22:07,524 --> 00:22:09,658
Having lost momentum,
223
00:22:09,658 --> 00:22:12,900
the Ashina ran
for their lives.
224
00:22:15,027 --> 00:22:16,597
I haven't lost yet!
225
00:22:16,597 --> 00:22:17,664
It's over!
226
00:22:17,664 --> 00:22:19,438
Back to Kurokawa Castle!
227
00:22:20,466 --> 00:22:22,004
What's that smoke?
228
00:22:23,535 --> 00:22:25,677
The bridge is burning!
229
00:22:27,706 --> 00:22:33,283
The battle for supremacy
over Oshu ended in 4 hours.
230
00:22:33,283 --> 00:22:35,119
An overwhelming Date victory,
231
00:22:35,547 --> 00:22:40,857
the Ashina dead numbered 2,500.
232
00:23:31,670 --> 00:23:32,780
Mother!
233
00:23:36,408 --> 00:23:40,688
Rejoice! Brother won
a great victory!
234
00:23:41,213 --> 00:23:42,191
Is that true?!
235
00:23:42,191 --> 00:23:44,251
A messenger came!
236
00:23:44,251 --> 00:23:50,030
At Suriagehara, our lord
crushed Ashina Yoshihiro!
237
00:23:50,556 --> 00:23:53,365
Brother is truly
lord of the Date!
238
00:23:53,365 --> 00:23:54,735
Is he safe?
239
00:23:54,735 --> 00:23:56,063
Of course!
240
00:23:57,296 --> 00:23:58,366
Princess Mego!
241
00:23:59,365 --> 00:24:01,403
Congratulations!
242
00:24:02,434 --> 00:24:04,406
Congratulations!
243
00:24:12,378 --> 00:24:13,880
June 10...
244
00:24:13,880 --> 00:24:16,518
Fearing for his life,
245
00:24:16,518 --> 00:24:19,620
Ashina Yoshiaki escaped
from Kurokawa Castle...
246
00:24:19,620 --> 00:24:23,596
and returned to his
Satake homeland.
247
00:24:24,223 --> 00:24:28,263
Thus, Ashina, the greatest
clan of Oshu was destroyed.
248
00:24:35,467 --> 00:24:41,048
June 11, Masamune moved
into Kurokawa Castle.
249
00:24:42,674 --> 00:24:43,948
It is commonly believed...
250
00:24:43,948 --> 00:24:50,054
that was when Masamune wrote
"Sansa Shigure," song of victory.
251
00:25:44,903 --> 00:25:47,048
Magnificent!
252
00:25:48,273 --> 00:25:51,277
Have you ever seen
such a victory?
253
00:25:51,277 --> 00:25:54,314
Like Uesugi Kenshin
at Kawanakajima!
254
00:25:54,314 --> 00:25:57,918
No!
He's like Oda Nobunaga!
255
00:25:57,918 --> 00:26:04,634
Nobunaga was 27.
Our lord is 23!
256
00:26:04,634 --> 00:26:07,837
He is truly the
master of Oshu!
257
00:26:07,837 --> 00:26:09,237
The Satake must be astounded!
258
00:26:09,237 --> 00:26:12,834
He came to Inawashiro
with lighting speed!
259
00:26:12,834 --> 00:26:14,742
The Date were originally "Idate."
260
00:26:14,742 --> 00:26:17,337
That is why they're "Idaten"
lighting fast!
261
00:26:17,337 --> 00:26:18,575
I see.
262
00:26:18,575 --> 00:26:21,074
"Idaten" speedy Date!
263
00:26:22,107 --> 00:26:23,177
Reporting!
264
00:26:23,177 --> 00:26:25,620
Sir Harada Samanosuke is here!
265
00:26:25,620 --> 00:26:27,286
Send him in.
266
00:26:30,315 --> 00:26:32,560
Good work.
Come forward.
267
00:26:35,754 --> 00:26:36,734
Men...
268
00:26:37,756 --> 00:26:40,635
Samanosuke was
at Hibara Pass.
269
00:26:40,635 --> 00:26:43,503
He defeated the Oshio
at Kitagata.
270
00:26:43,503 --> 00:26:45,566
A magnificent feat.
271
00:26:45,566 --> 00:26:46,316
You're right.
272
00:26:47,299 --> 00:26:49,973
So you finally took revenge?
273
00:26:49,973 --> 00:26:51,815
Samanosuke is relentless!
274
00:26:54,840 --> 00:26:59,418
Lord Masamune finds
Kurokawa Castle pleasing.
275
00:26:59,418 --> 00:27:02,186
He plans to move here
from Yonezawa.
276
00:27:02,186 --> 00:27:03,557
What?!
277
00:27:03,557 --> 00:27:07,557
If anyone objects,
feel free to speak.
278
00:27:08,387 --> 00:27:10,663
A fine idea!
279
00:27:11,089 --> 00:27:14,831
Kurokawa is in the
center of Oshu.
280
00:27:14,831 --> 00:27:17,466
He can exercise control
in four directions.
281
00:27:17,466 --> 00:27:22,001
There can be no better
base for the Date.
282
00:27:22,734 --> 00:27:23,712
Tenryosai?
283
00:27:24,670 --> 00:27:26,946
A most capital idea!
284
00:27:26,946 --> 00:27:28,350
You're unusually agreeable.
285
00:27:29,374 --> 00:27:33,080
I would like to
say something.
286
00:27:33,080 --> 00:27:34,249
You object, Deibansai?
287
00:27:34,249 --> 00:27:38,691
I am most impressed
by your leadership.
288
00:27:38,691 --> 00:27:42,061
Old men like me
shouldn't interfere.
289
00:27:42,588 --> 00:27:47,398
I would like to propose
a castle renovation.
290
00:27:47,398 --> 00:27:48,166
Renovation?
291
00:27:48,166 --> 00:27:54,175
It should be worthy
of the master of Oshu.
292
00:27:54,175 --> 00:27:57,146
Let many workmen make
this castle...
293
00:27:57,146 --> 00:28:01,810
larger and sturdier than before.
294
00:28:01,810 --> 00:28:03,342
Splendid idea!
295
00:28:03,342 --> 00:28:04,847
It's not necessary.
296
00:28:10,549 --> 00:28:13,359
I won't be here long.
297
00:28:13,359 --> 00:28:14,494
What do you mean?
298
00:28:15,220 --> 00:28:18,069
The Ashina conquest
was merely a trial.
299
00:28:19,691 --> 00:28:24,098
By year's end, I'll defeat
the Soma, Satake...
300
00:28:24,098 --> 00:28:26,101
Conquer every clan!
301
00:28:29,868 --> 00:28:34,345
And soar up the Kanto!
302
00:28:39,544 --> 00:28:43,027
Did you hear?!
Our lord is a dragon!
303
00:28:43,749 --> 00:28:45,028
A soaring dragon!
304
00:28:48,553 --> 00:28:53,098
From now on, let us call him
Masamune, One-eyed Dragon!
305
00:28:53,325 --> 00:28:57,566
One-eyed Dragon... Masamune!
306
00:29:15,213 --> 00:29:16,460
Sir Magobei...
307
00:29:20,085 --> 00:29:24,663
Tomorrow, I leave for Tamura
territory under orders.
308
00:29:24,663 --> 00:29:25,964
I know.
309
00:29:25,964 --> 00:29:28,437
I wish to say something to you.
310
00:29:28,437 --> 00:29:31,031
Our duel?
I remember.
311
00:29:31,031 --> 00:29:34,067
It was postponed until after
we defeated the Ashina.
312
00:29:34,067 --> 00:29:37,514
Please release me
from our agreement.
313
00:29:38,036 --> 00:29:39,743
Release?
314
00:29:39,743 --> 00:29:45,581
I received honors and praise
from our lord because of you.
315
00:29:45,581 --> 00:29:47,384
All I did was insult you.
316
00:29:47,384 --> 00:29:50,724
I wanted revenge for that.
317
00:29:51,750 --> 00:29:56,166
I vowed to redeem myself
and kill you.
318
00:29:56,688 --> 00:30:00,228
Just name the place and time.
319
00:30:03,462 --> 00:30:05,911
I have already lost.
320
00:30:07,933 --> 00:30:11,348
I can never match you
in strength of character.
321
00:30:12,370 --> 00:30:16,312
Help me and be my friend.
322
00:30:20,612 --> 00:30:22,491
My head is safe.
323
00:30:24,015 --> 00:30:26,023
Praise the gods.
324
00:30:26,752 --> 00:30:28,359
Take care.
325
00:30:30,388 --> 00:30:31,503
You, too.
326
00:30:35,327 --> 00:30:39,640
The news of the Ashina
defeat spread throughout Ou.
327
00:30:39,640 --> 00:30:44,477
And other clans feared
young Masamune's ambition.
328
00:30:46,104 --> 00:30:51,112
Masamune's turnaround
tactic worked.
329
00:30:53,378 --> 00:30:54,721
His tactic, huh?
330
00:30:54,721 --> 00:30:58,987
He pretended to go south
to fight enemy allies,
331
00:30:58,987 --> 00:31:02,988
but he suddenly turned
around to Inawashiro.
332
00:31:02,988 --> 00:31:05,661
It was such a daring move,
333
00:31:05,661 --> 00:31:09,666
the Ashina were completely
taken by surprise.
334
00:31:09,666 --> 00:31:14,234
Masamune quickly settled
in Kurokawa Castle,
335
00:31:14,234 --> 00:31:19,002
and is separating Soma and
Iwaki from Tamura lands.
336
00:31:19,304 --> 00:31:20,848
Foolish boy.
337
00:31:22,174 --> 00:31:24,945
He's digging his own grave.
338
00:31:26,178 --> 00:31:27,253
Sire...?
339
00:31:27,979 --> 00:31:29,550
Don't you know...?
340
00:31:30,582 --> 00:31:33,553
Hideyoshi supports
the Ashina and Satake.
341
00:31:34,586 --> 00:31:40,602
As regent, Hideyoshi
must punish Masamune.
342
00:31:40,602 --> 00:31:41,597
Idiot!
343
00:31:46,031 --> 00:31:48,575
In early July, Hideyoshi's
representative...
344
00:31:48,575 --> 00:31:54,245
Kamikoriyama Nakatame
came to Kurokawa Castle.
345
00:31:55,874 --> 00:31:58,514
Lord Ashina was courteous
to the regent...
346
00:31:58,514 --> 00:32:01,149
and was held in great esteem.
347
00:32:01,149 --> 00:32:06,193
You attacked him for
personal motives...
348
00:32:06,193 --> 00:32:09,095
without regent's
permission.
349
00:32:09,521 --> 00:32:14,195
Moreover, you took Lord Ashina's
castle for your own.
350
00:32:14,195 --> 00:32:16,602
Highly questionable.
351
00:32:16,602 --> 00:32:19,165
The regent is furious.
352
00:32:19,165 --> 00:32:24,009
He demands that you come
to Kyoto and explain.
353
00:32:25,237 --> 00:32:27,275
I understand.
354
00:32:28,306 --> 00:32:31,553
Your answer?
355
00:32:33,578 --> 00:32:38,054
I would like to go
immediately,
356
00:32:38,283 --> 00:32:40,024
but along the highway...
357
00:32:40,024 --> 00:32:44,764
many armies lie in
wait to attack me.
358
00:32:45,790 --> 00:32:50,068
Please tell him that I will
send a letter of apology.
359
00:32:51,096 --> 00:32:55,478
This is an order.
Please reconsider.
360
00:32:55,478 --> 00:32:58,937
Insolence!
He says he'll write!
361
00:32:58,937 --> 00:33:00,847
Lord Shigezane!
362
00:33:00,847 --> 00:33:04,047
I am descended
from the Genji.
363
00:33:05,377 --> 00:33:10,156
My grandfather served the Date.
364
00:33:10,156 --> 00:33:11,888
We're aware of that.
365
00:33:11,888 --> 00:33:18,004
For the sake of your clan,
heed my warning.
366
00:33:18,423 --> 00:33:22,428
If you do not come to
Kyoto and apologize,
367
00:33:22,428 --> 00:33:27,102
the regent will take
Kurokawa Castle by force.
368
00:33:27,102 --> 00:33:29,305
Good!
369
00:33:29,305 --> 00:33:33,348
We'll fight Hideyoshi for
the honor of Togoku samurai!
370
00:33:35,373 --> 00:33:38,183
You bumpkins do not
know true strength.
371
00:33:38,183 --> 00:33:39,586
What?!
372
00:33:39,586 --> 00:33:42,559
Countless daimyo swore
allegiance to the regent.
373
00:33:43,581 --> 00:33:48,190
They would make an army
of 500,000.
374
00:33:49,220 --> 00:33:50,392
500,000?
375
00:33:56,361 --> 00:34:01,243
If I go to Kyoto, will he
allow my conquest of Aizu?
376
00:34:01,243 --> 00:34:01,937
Sire...
377
00:34:01,937 --> 00:34:03,607
I'm asking Nakatame.
378
00:34:04,636 --> 00:34:07,173
I do not know.
379
00:34:07,173 --> 00:34:12,048
However, an heir was
born to the regent.
380
00:34:12,577 --> 00:34:16,518
So he is in exceedingly
high spirits.
381
00:34:16,948 --> 00:34:18,052
What?
382
00:34:18,052 --> 00:34:20,530
An heir?
383
00:34:21,553 --> 00:34:27,002
In May, his concubine
Chacha bore a son.
384
00:34:27,726 --> 00:34:30,698
The child was named Tsurumatsu.
385
00:34:34,366 --> 00:34:38,380
Masamune ignored
Hideyoshi's order...
386
00:34:38,380 --> 00:34:43,982
and sent Priest Ryokakuin
Eishin with an apology.
387
00:34:43,982 --> 00:34:48,386
Meanwhile, he boldly
marched south...
388
00:34:48,386 --> 00:34:52,085
capturing all the
castles in south Aizu.
389
00:35:02,694 --> 00:35:03,729
You're going away?
390
00:35:03,729 --> 00:35:10,970
Yes. We are moving into
Kurokawa Castle in Aziu.
391
00:35:12,604 --> 00:35:18,248
Kurokawa has a good climate,
so Masamune urged us to come.
392
00:35:19,277 --> 00:35:21,156
You shouldn't be happy.
393
00:35:23,179 --> 00:35:28,151
Hideyoshi is furious and wants
Masamune to come to Kyoto.
394
00:35:28,420 --> 00:35:32,025
Why won't he apologize
and swear allegiance?
395
00:35:32,457 --> 00:35:36,303
The Date have wished to conquer
the Ashina for generations.
396
00:35:36,303 --> 00:35:39,308
Why should Kyoto interfere?
397
00:35:39,308 --> 00:35:40,267
Fool!
398
00:35:41,399 --> 00:35:44,210
This no longer concerns
just the lords of Ou!
399
00:35:44,736 --> 00:35:47,717
Of course Masamune is courteous
towards the regent.
400
00:35:47,717 --> 00:35:52,647
He sends gifts and a
representative with them.
401
00:35:52,647 --> 00:35:58,090
But he continues to wage war
and is attacking the Satake.
402
00:35:59,317 --> 00:36:02,288
Masamune's true motives are clear!
403
00:36:03,321 --> 00:36:07,003
Think what this will lead to.
404
00:36:09,661 --> 00:36:14,042
This is not merely
the Date clan's problem.
405
00:36:15,066 --> 00:36:19,783
This will give Hideyoshi an
excuse to conquer Ou!
406
00:36:20,805 --> 00:36:25,077
Warlords involved with
Masamune will be destroyed!
407
00:36:34,619 --> 00:36:36,927
The young lord is here.
408
00:36:37,956 --> 00:36:40,428
Yoshiyasu...
Come here.
409
00:36:40,428 --> 00:36:41,430
Yes!
410
00:36:48,099 --> 00:36:50,872
It's nice to see you, Aunt.
411
00:36:54,372 --> 00:36:57,079
You've grown to
be a fine young man.
412
00:36:58,009 --> 00:37:02,387
Kojiro, your cousin
Yoshiyasu is the same age.
413
00:37:02,387 --> 00:37:04,188
Be good friends.
414
00:37:04,188 --> 00:37:05,159
Yes!
415
00:37:07,085 --> 00:37:09,089
Pity, though...
416
00:37:10,121 --> 00:37:12,633
Masamune is reckless
and lacks sense.
417
00:37:13,958 --> 00:37:17,929
He refuses to heed my advice.
418
00:37:17,929 --> 00:37:20,568
Pride goes before a fall.
419
00:37:20,568 --> 00:37:25,206
He'll end up with
his head cut off!
420
00:37:25,206 --> 00:37:26,078
Brother...
421
00:37:26,078 --> 00:37:26,828
Listen.
422
00:37:29,207 --> 00:37:31,244
The way I see it,
423
00:37:31,776 --> 00:37:34,985
the future of the Date
rests with Kojiro.
424
00:37:34,985 --> 00:37:39,985
Join hands with Yoshiyasu
and help each other.
425
00:37:44,088 --> 00:37:49,129
I'm glad you've come.
I'll give you a sword.
426
00:37:56,968 --> 00:37:58,440
Lord Kojiro...
427
00:38:13,117 --> 00:38:18,391
Masamune's wife, Mego,
moved into Kurokawa Castle.
428
00:38:19,123 --> 00:38:22,195
Kojiro also served
in the castle.
429
00:38:22,195 --> 00:38:28,000
Lady Yoshi moved into the West
Palace, a detached building.
430
00:38:29,300 --> 00:38:32,577
Uncle has been smitten
by cowardice.
431
00:38:32,577 --> 00:38:35,915
Do not take Hideyoshi lightly.
432
00:38:35,915 --> 00:38:37,114
I know.
433
00:38:39,143 --> 00:38:44,420
But before Hideyoshi turns
to Oshu, it will take time.
434
00:38:45,550 --> 00:38:48,156
I will use that time...
435
00:38:48,156 --> 00:38:52,065
to extend Date power
as far as possible.
436
00:38:52,290 --> 00:38:57,173
Fine, but defying the regent
will bring self-destruction.
437
00:38:57,173 --> 00:38:59,132
Not necessarily.
438
00:39:00,164 --> 00:39:04,237
If warlords from Kanto and
Tohoku will follow me,
439
00:39:05,269 --> 00:39:09,018
even Hideyoshi will not
get his way.
440
00:39:10,241 --> 00:39:13,213
You intend to fight him?
441
00:39:15,380 --> 00:39:17,453
I am a man.
442
00:39:19,484 --> 00:39:22,260
To cross swords with
the great Hideyoshi...
443
00:39:22,260 --> 00:39:25,030
is the opportunity
of a lifetime!
444
00:39:26,057 --> 00:39:29,401
Whether we fight or
make peace,
445
00:39:29,401 --> 00:39:31,703
I shall strive
to have no regrets!
446
00:39:31,703 --> 00:39:37,537
Are you not light-headed
over your victory?
447
00:39:37,537 --> 00:39:40,980
I'll take your advice to heart.
448
00:39:42,807 --> 00:39:46,311
However, Hideyoshi
is only a man.
449
00:39:46,311 --> 00:39:52,017
If I humbly bow to him,
I'll be disgraced as ruler of Oshu.
450
00:40:04,962 --> 00:40:05,872
Late October...
451
00:40:05,872 --> 00:40:10,002
the Date attacked Sukagawa Castle,
base of the Nikaido.
452
00:40:10,335 --> 00:40:14,446
Satake and Iwaki troops were
also in Sukawara Castle.
453
00:40:14,446 --> 00:40:16,884
But they could not
withstand the Date onslaught,
454
00:40:16,884 --> 00:40:19,355
and the castle fell.
455
00:40:20,378 --> 00:40:25,088
And Masamune's uncle Ishikawa
Shikko swore allegiance to him.
456
00:40:25,917 --> 00:40:30,064
And the Date's territory grew to
its largest in history.
457
00:40:30,788 --> 00:40:33,827
Masamune ordered
Suzuki Shigenobu...
458
00:40:33,827 --> 00:40:38,005
to plan his retainers'
mansions.
459
00:40:39,630 --> 00:40:41,906
Inawashiro Morikuni
can live here.
460
00:40:41,906 --> 00:40:46,640
300-kan stipend increase.
461
00:40:46,640 --> 00:40:49,015
A great profit for Morikuni!
462
00:40:49,015 --> 00:40:51,077
Harada Samanosuke next door.
463
00:40:51,077 --> 00:40:52,053
Yes.
464
00:40:52,053 --> 00:40:54,613
100-kan increase.
465
00:40:54,613 --> 00:41:00,621
Wait. Shouldn't established
vassals get more?
466
00:41:00,621 --> 00:41:02,255
Lord Masamune's orders.
467
00:41:02,255 --> 00:41:03,005
How come?
468
00:41:03,788 --> 00:41:06,359
Where do you want
to live, Shigenobu?
469
00:41:06,359 --> 00:41:09,000
I have high expectations.
470
00:41:09,293 --> 00:41:10,670
Tell us.
471
00:41:10,670 --> 00:41:14,734
After defeating the Satake,
I want a castle in Kanto.
472
00:41:14,734 --> 00:41:16,311
Big plans.
473
00:41:18,136 --> 00:41:20,108
Let's go on.
474
00:41:27,278 --> 00:41:31,009
January 7, 1590,
475
00:41:31,282 --> 00:41:36,258
the Date held their customary
linked verse meeting.
476
00:41:37,288 --> 00:41:41,695
Meanwhile, Hideyoshi had
subjugated the western clans.
477
00:41:41,695 --> 00:41:46,698
He was now ready to gain
control of Kanto and Tohoku.
478
00:41:51,202 --> 00:41:52,908
Your verse, sire.
479
00:41:59,010 --> 00:42:03,116
As seven herbs in one,
480
00:42:03,116 --> 00:42:05,684
the parsley we pluck.
481
00:42:05,684 --> 00:42:07,195
As seven herbs in one,
482
00:42:07,195 --> 00:42:10,358
the parsley we pluck.
483
00:42:10,358 --> 00:42:11,264
Magnificent!
484
00:42:11,264 --> 00:42:14,133
Most auspicious!
485
00:42:14,133 --> 00:42:16,008
You understand it, Sadatsuna?
486
00:42:16,494 --> 00:42:19,600
"Seven herbs" are
the 7 Sendo territories.
487
00:42:19,600 --> 00:42:23,840
Our great victory.
488
00:42:23,840 --> 00:42:25,840
I knew that.
489
00:42:30,842 --> 00:42:32,185
Reporting!
490
00:42:32,185 --> 00:42:35,690
Ryokakuin Eishin has
returned from Kyoto!
491
00:42:36,113 --> 00:42:37,353
Send him in.
492
00:42:45,456 --> 00:42:47,768
Happy New Year.
493
00:42:49,794 --> 00:42:51,001
Thanks for your work.
494
00:42:52,029 --> 00:42:53,231
Come forward.
495
00:42:54,598 --> 00:42:55,293
Excuse me.
496
00:43:03,074 --> 00:43:05,384
Was the regent
in a good mood?
497
00:43:05,384 --> 00:43:09,347
He has decided to
punish Lord Hojo.
498
00:43:09,347 --> 00:43:12,452
He ordered the daimyo
to prepare for battle.
499
00:43:12,452 --> 00:43:13,860
What?!
500
00:43:13,860 --> 00:43:18,091
They leave for
Odawara next month.
501
00:43:21,726 --> 00:43:26,032
So he's finally coming?
502
00:43:41,216 --> 00:43:42,266
End of Episode Twenty
503
00:43:49,987 --> 00:43:53,432
