Date Masamune on the 5th place
and Maera Toshiie on the 4th.
20
00:00:45,860 --> 00:00:50,360
Date Masamune has ranked on

{\pos(200,110)}Announcing the best three

And now, the best three.
23
00:00:54,400 --> 00:00:57,900
On the 3rd place Uesugi Kagekatsu
with stipend 1.200.000.
24
00:00:58,890 --> 00:01:01,140

00:01:04,530 --> 00:01:06,900
And now, the first place
in best 10 stipends belongs...
27
00:01:07,060 --> 00:01:09,030
definitely to Tokugawa Ieyasu
28
00:01:09,060 --> 00:01:11,730
and his top stipent
in amount of 2.560.000.
29
00:01:13,600 --> 00:01:15,700
By the way, members of
The Council of Five Elders,

...were chosen from the first six
best places, except for Masamune.
39
00:01:23,060 --> 00:01:25,760
It might have been because...
40
00:01:25,760 --> 00:01:28,660
...Masamune was a newcomer, or
they didn't believe him,
41
00:01:28,760 --> 00:01:30,660
but he had never been
added as its member.

arranging my coming-of-age
ceremony
68
00:04:09,112 --> 00:04:12,114
according to samurai custom...
69
00:04:12,115 --> 00:04:15,785
I got it, Mother.
I am fine.
70
00:04:22,259 --> 00:04:24,293
You've grown.
71
00:04:29,933 --> 00:04:31,867
I thank you for
72
00:04:31,868 --> 00:04:34,670
arranging my coming-of-age
ceremony
73
00:04:34,671 --> 00:04:40,009
according to samurai custom
today.
74
00:04:45,282 --> 00:04:46,749
Well done.
75
00:04:52,355 --> 00:04:56,625
1596. Masamune,
now thirty,
76
00:04:56,626 --> 00:04:59,829
presided over
the coming-of-age ceremony
77
00:04:59,830 --> 00:05:01,430
for six-year-old Hyogoro.
78
00:05:05,469 --> 00:05:06,302
Hyogoro.
79
00:05:07,637 --> 00:05:11,073
His highness, the taiko
has given you
80
00:05:11,074 --> 00:05:13,309
a character from his name
for your adult name.
81
00:05:14,311 --> 00:05:16,345
From now on
you are Hidemune.
82
00:05:17,314 --> 00:05:19,482
Hidemune Hyogoro Date.
83
00:05:20,984 --> 00:05:22,518
Thank you.
84
00:05:22,652 --> 00:05:24,086
That's not all.
85
00:05:24,888 --> 00:05:27,890
The Imperial Court accepted
the taiko's petition,
86
00:05:27,891 --> 00:05:31,026
and you are underchamberlain
of the fifth order.
87
00:05:34,564 --> 00:05:36,298
You'll appreciate it
when you're older.
88
00:05:36,333 --> 00:05:39,335
It is an honor to have
an imperial rank at six.
89
00:05:43,840 --> 00:05:45,241
Congratulations.
90
00:05:45,542 --> 00:05:47,343
- Congratulations.
- Congratulations.
91
00:05:48,411 --> 00:05:50,112
Congratulations.
92
00:05:51,348 --> 00:05:52,848
Neko!
93
00:06:09,699 --> 00:06:10,866
Sir Date.
94
00:06:12,235 --> 00:06:16,972
Since you are in the taiko's
favor nowadays,
95
00:06:17,007 --> 00:06:20,242
you make light of
us magistrates.
96
00:06:21,678 --> 00:06:24,146
Stand out and others
will try to pull you down.
97
00:06:24,147 --> 00:06:27,583
You should be
more modest.
98
00:06:28,485 --> 00:06:30,920
I have my own reasons.
99
00:06:32,622 --> 00:06:35,858
Last month,
when one of our men
100
00:06:35,859 --> 00:06:38,594
was killed in front of
the Satsuma mansion,
101
00:06:38,595 --> 00:06:41,964
you protected the culprit
by not pursuing the matter.
102
00:06:41,965 --> 00:06:43,866
I resent that.
103
00:06:44,100 --> 00:06:46,235
Satsuma said they knew
nothing about it.
104
00:06:46,236 --> 00:06:47,903
I won't take it lying down.
105
00:06:49,573 --> 00:06:53,642
Since you are my mentor,
I've overlooked minor matters.
106
00:06:53,643 --> 00:06:55,044
Hold on.
107
00:06:55,612 --> 00:06:58,147
Are you saying
you bear me a grudge?
108
00:06:58,915 --> 00:07:02,484
If so, take this opportunity
to tell me.
109
00:07:04,888 --> 00:07:06,355
I shall.
110
00:07:07,424 --> 00:07:11,126
First, during
the Korea expedition
111
00:07:11,127 --> 00:07:13,429
when we were attacking
Busan Castle,
112
00:07:13,430 --> 00:07:16,165
you deliberately ordered
my retreat in front of allies.
113
00:07:16,166 --> 00:07:18,434
If that's not a samurai disgrace,
I don't know what is.
114
00:07:18,435 --> 00:07:22,264
I was only admonishing your
stealing a march for merit.
115
00:07:22,706 --> 00:07:25,107
I was the commander
of that war.
116
00:07:25,108 --> 00:07:29,178
Second, similarly during the
Korea expedition,
117
00:07:29,179 --> 00:07:31,447
your army received more
money allocations than we.
118
00:07:31,448 --> 00:07:33,349
That couldn't be helped.
119
00:07:33,350 --> 00:07:36,051
The Date had a lot
of supplies.
120
00:07:36,052 --> 00:07:41,290
Third. Although you were
my mentor,
121
00:07:41,291 --> 00:07:44,860
when three times I was
accused falsely of treason,
122
00:07:45,428 --> 00:07:47,396
you did not speak up for me.
123
00:07:48,431 --> 00:07:50,499
I am greatly offended.
124
00:07:51,501 --> 00:07:52,668
What?
125
00:07:53,169 --> 00:07:55,270
I don't need your protection
any more.
126
00:08:00,176 --> 00:08:01,810
You ingrate.
127
00:08:02,312 --> 00:08:06,015
By severing ties with
Nagamasa Asano,
128
00:08:06,016 --> 00:08:08,717
Masamune brought himself
a step closer to Hideyoshi.
129
00:08:12,155 --> 00:08:18,427
I hear the Oniniwa family
all live a long life.
130
00:08:18,428 --> 00:08:20,095
That's right.
131
00:08:22,399 --> 00:08:25,601
Who lived the longest?
132
00:08:27,170 --> 00:08:30,572
Our ancestor Yoshizane
lived to be 97.
133
00:08:31,574 --> 00:08:33,475
Ninety-seven?
134
00:08:34,944 --> 00:08:37,246
Who died young?
135
00:08:39,215 --> 00:08:41,517
That would be my father
Yoshinao Sagetsu
136
00:08:41,518 --> 00:08:44,119
who died young at 74.
137
00:08:44,854 --> 00:08:48,223
You consider 74 dying young?
138
00:08:49,592 --> 00:08:52,361
Even though we consider
Sagetsu to have died young,
139
00:08:52,362 --> 00:08:54,596
he died a glorious death
140
00:08:54,597 --> 00:08:58,100
fighting off hordes at the battle
of Hitotori bridge in Sendo.
141
00:09:06,876 --> 00:09:15,217
What is the secret of
your family's longevity?
142
00:09:16,886 --> 00:09:18,921
Nothing special.
143
00:09:19,556 --> 00:09:21,590
In the hot water served
at every meal,
144
00:09:21,591 --> 00:09:25,094
we put several grains of
cooked rice
145
00:09:25,095 --> 00:09:30,232
and we drink three or four
cups of it.
146
00:09:35,472 --> 00:09:38,207
Is that so?
147
00:09:38,208 --> 00:09:49,551
Then I will try your family's
secret too.
148
00:09:50,787 --> 00:09:52,488
Tsunamoto.
149
00:09:55,058 --> 00:09:58,594
Your family name, an ogre
in the garden, is unlucky.
150
00:10:02,298 --> 00:10:10,873
Flowers and plants
should grow in a garden.
151
00:10:13,443 --> 00:10:21,383
Well? From today,
change your surname to
152
00:10:21,384 --> 00:10:27,556
Moniwa. That is my gift.
153
00:10:29,959 --> 00:10:31,760
Thank you, sir.
154
00:10:46,976 --> 00:10:49,244
Five grains of rice.
155
00:10:52,315 --> 00:10:53,315
Masamune.
156
00:10:55,185 --> 00:10:56,985
What shall we bet
on this game?
157
00:10:58,185 --> 00:10:59,485
Well...
158
00:10:59,889 --> 00:11:07,663
If I win, I want the Date
family's treasure.
159
00:11:13,770 --> 00:11:15,704
I want Tsunamoto.
160
00:11:19,175 --> 00:11:20,976
All right.
161
00:11:20,977 --> 00:11:25,147
If Tsunamoto wins,
what can I have?
162
00:11:25,181 --> 00:11:28,817
Tsunamoto is Date's
hereditary vassal
163
00:11:28,818 --> 00:11:31,153
and is my confidant.
164
00:11:32,956 --> 00:11:35,524
Do you think I will lose?
165
00:11:36,159 --> 00:11:38,460
I'm saying,
if one in a million...
166
00:11:40,363 --> 00:11:43,665
Well in that case,
167
00:11:48,438 --> 00:11:50,272
what about her,
Lady Ko?
168
00:11:54,377 --> 00:11:58,113
She is my virgin treasure.
Your move.
169
00:12:07,290 --> 00:12:08,757
That must have felt good.
170
00:12:08,758 --> 00:12:11,960
Even the taiko paled and
was at a loss for words.
171
00:12:12,896 --> 00:12:14,897
What happened to
Lady Ko?
172
00:12:14,898 --> 00:12:16,632
She's at Tsunamoto's
mansion.
173
00:12:16,933 --> 00:12:18,700
You should return her
immediately.
174
00:12:20,103 --> 00:12:22,204
Or else, he'll retaliate.
175
00:12:22,205 --> 00:12:24,239
Don't worry.
It's just a joke.
176
00:12:25,275 --> 00:12:27,075
No, it's not.
177
00:12:28,945 --> 00:12:30,512
Tsunamoto.
178
00:12:31,281 --> 00:12:33,482
Do you want to serve
Hideyoshi?
179
00:12:34,417 --> 00:12:36,084
I won.
180
00:12:36,319 --> 00:12:37,719
What if you had lost?
181
00:12:39,322 --> 00:12:41,490
The taiko is an upstart,
182
00:12:41,491 --> 00:12:43,825
so compared to other lords,
he has fewer confidants.
183
00:12:44,761 --> 00:12:48,163
That's why he wanted
Kojuro before
184
00:12:48,164 --> 00:12:52,634
and now he wants you
to become his retainer.
185
00:12:53,403 --> 00:12:57,472
How can you be Date's magistrate
without seeing through that.
186
00:12:57,774 --> 00:12:59,508
You're absolutely right.
187
00:12:59,509 --> 00:13:04,446
But Sir Tsunamoto was
forced to play the taiko.
188
00:13:04,781 --> 00:13:06,415
It's not just the chess game.
189
00:13:08,084 --> 00:13:11,153
Tsunamoto abandoned his
hereditary surname
190
00:13:11,154 --> 00:13:13,255
and accepted Hideyoshi's
renaming.
191
00:13:14,490 --> 00:13:16,825
If Sagetsu were alive,
192
00:13:16,826 --> 00:13:18,894
he would have been
mad as hell.
193
00:13:19,028 --> 00:13:20,228
Sir Shigezane.
194
00:13:20,663 --> 00:13:25,000
Isn't it samurai honor to be
given a name by the ruler?
195
00:13:26,035 --> 00:13:28,337
A surname is a samurai's
cornerstone.
196
00:13:31,341 --> 00:13:32,841
Give it back.
197
00:13:33,543 --> 00:13:35,444
Give back the surname
and the woman.
198
00:13:35,912 --> 00:13:37,212
Show him Date's spirit.
199
00:13:37,213 --> 00:13:38,714
That's not necessary.
200
00:13:40,116 --> 00:13:42,250
I was the one who permitted
him to bet on a chess game.
201
00:13:43,119 --> 00:13:45,253
He was given his surname
in front of me.
202
00:13:46,456 --> 00:13:49,091
Your blaming Tsunamoto is
the same as blaming me.
203
00:13:53,830 --> 00:13:55,864
Then here's
my honest opinion.
204
00:13:56,933 --> 00:13:59,468
You know very well
the taiko is capricious.
205
00:14:00,136 --> 00:14:01,503
It's dangerous to get
too close.
206
00:14:01,504 --> 00:14:03,138
I know that.
207
00:14:05,174 --> 00:14:09,478
If you do, draw a line
like Sir Tokugawa.
208
00:14:11,214 --> 00:14:14,149
If you keep going to
pay your respects,
209
00:14:14,150 --> 00:14:15,951
you're a toady.
210
00:14:21,224 --> 00:14:22,958
A toady?
211
00:14:22,959 --> 00:14:24,493
Sir Shigezane.
212
00:14:30,299 --> 00:14:32,601
- Say that again!
- Please don't.
213
00:14:33,636 --> 00:14:37,472
If you don't like my advice,
go ahead and kill me.
214
00:14:37,473 --> 00:14:39,408
- Damn you.
- My Lord.
215
00:14:40,543 --> 00:14:43,445
It's my fault.
I apologize.
216
00:14:44,113 --> 00:14:46,415
- I'm talking to the lord.
- Shut up, Shigezane.
217
00:14:46,416 --> 00:14:47,883
This is the last straw.
218
00:14:47,884 --> 00:14:49,651
- You mustn't.
- Please leave.
219
00:14:49,652 --> 00:14:50,685
Let me go!
220
00:14:52,722 --> 00:14:53,588
Sir Shigezane.
221
00:14:56,559 --> 00:14:58,693
Restrain yourself,
Sir Shigezane.
222
00:15:10,606 --> 00:15:14,242
I don't know
what came over me.
223
00:15:14,911 --> 00:15:16,378
Pardon my rudeness.
224
00:15:20,016 --> 00:15:21,216
Shigezane.
225
00:15:48,544 --> 00:15:50,045
What's the matter?
226
00:15:51,080 --> 00:15:53,148
You look very sad today.
227
00:15:54,283 --> 00:15:56,051
Are you feeling ill?
228
00:16:01,791 --> 00:16:03,325
Tose.
229
00:16:03,326 --> 00:16:04,526
Yes?
230
00:16:05,962 --> 00:16:07,829
Go back to the fief.
231
00:16:08,998 --> 00:16:10,298
What are you saying?
232
00:16:10,299 --> 00:16:12,200
I'm divorcing you.
233
00:16:13,970 --> 00:16:15,804
You're joking.
234
00:16:18,608 --> 00:16:24,212
I'm not sure what
being a samurai means.
235
00:16:28,050 --> 00:16:30,085
What am I living for?
236
00:16:31,454 --> 00:16:36,258
Why do I serve the Date?
237
00:16:38,094 --> 00:16:41,062
A samurai honors
the family name
238
00:16:41,063 --> 00:16:43,532
and is willing to die
for his lord.
239
00:16:44,066 --> 00:16:45,867
That's how it used to be.
240
00:16:47,003 --> 00:16:49,938
Warriors were always looking
for a place to die.
241
00:16:52,708 --> 00:16:56,178
But warriors nowadays
242
00:16:57,013 --> 00:16:59,014
have been made spineless
by Hideyoshi
243
00:16:59,015 --> 00:17:01,550
and act like tame
house cats.
244
00:17:03,452 --> 00:17:08,323
Men who're glib
are the ones who get ahead.
245
00:17:11,027 --> 00:17:18,533
Louts like me are useless.
246
00:17:18,534 --> 00:17:20,502
That's not so...
247
00:17:20,503 --> 00:17:22,103
You don't understand.
248
00:17:23,773 --> 00:17:25,807
I'm an encumbrance
to the Date.
249
00:17:30,346 --> 00:17:33,582
In times of peace,
I'm totally useless.
250
00:17:34,217 --> 00:17:35,850
How pathetic.
251
00:17:37,320 --> 00:17:38,920
You're right.
252
00:17:43,059 --> 00:17:44,859
I'm so angry at myself.
253
00:17:46,028 --> 00:17:47,729
Then...
254
00:17:49,198 --> 00:17:52,801
Will it make you feel better
if you divorce me?
255
00:17:54,070 --> 00:17:57,138
I don't want to live in vain
and die in obscurity.
256
00:18:01,711 --> 00:18:06,548
I want to go on a trip
to find myself.
257
00:18:08,618 --> 00:18:11,820
You can't.
The lord won't permit it.
258
00:18:11,821 --> 00:18:13,722
I don't need his permission.
I'll leave without telling him.
259
00:18:13,856 --> 00:18:16,491
Don't do it.
260
00:18:16,492 --> 00:18:17,859
Listen.
261
00:18:18,894 --> 00:18:21,396
I don't want to divorce you,
262
00:18:21,397 --> 00:18:23,665
but I don't want my crime
to affect you.
263
00:18:24,100 --> 00:18:26,268
That's too selfish of you.
264
00:18:26,969 --> 00:18:29,804
What about your retainers?
265
00:18:33,376 --> 00:18:35,510
I'll tell Umanosuke
the truth.
266
00:18:37,246 --> 00:18:42,784
One who is a true samurai
will understand how I feel.
267
00:18:45,721 --> 00:18:47,322
Don't cry, Tose.
268
00:18:50,660 --> 00:18:53,395
I'm going to make my lord
reconsider
269
00:18:53,396 --> 00:18:56,031
what a true warrior is by
laying my life on the line.
270
00:18:56,632 --> 00:18:58,833
Whether it's more important
to weather the storm
271
00:18:58,834 --> 00:19:00,935
or to be a man of culture.
272
00:19:01,237 --> 00:19:05,974
Then don't divorce me,
order me to die.
273
00:19:06,108 --> 00:19:07,676
Don't be foolish.
274
00:19:08,044 --> 00:19:12,881
As long as I live,
I will be your wife.
275
00:19:19,588 --> 00:19:22,357
If you're going to run away
no matter what,
276
00:19:22,825 --> 00:19:30,165
I will wait for your return
in Kakuta Castle.
277
00:19:36,472 --> 00:19:37,539
Listen, Hidemune.
278
00:19:38,174 --> 00:19:42,143
Your birth mother is
Lady Iizaka here.
279
00:19:44,180 --> 00:19:45,747
That's true.
280
00:19:46,248 --> 00:19:49,484
But you must not call her
mother.
281
00:19:51,153 --> 00:19:53,288
Why not?
282
00:19:53,289 --> 00:19:55,824
Hidemune's mother is Mego.
283
00:19:56,459 --> 00:19:58,059
I don't get it.
284
00:19:58,060 --> 00:20:00,362
Mego is the legal wife,
you're a mistress.
285
00:20:00,930 --> 00:20:03,131
The heir's mother must be
the legal wife.
286
00:20:03,132 --> 00:20:04,833
That's the custom.
287
00:20:05,801 --> 00:20:07,202
Then I ask you.
288
00:20:07,837 --> 00:20:09,804
What am I to Hidemune?
289
00:20:12,541 --> 00:20:14,209
His birth mother.
290
00:20:14,210 --> 00:20:16,044
Is a birth mother
not a mother?
291
00:20:16,045 --> 00:20:17,445
Don't quibble.
292
00:20:17,446 --> 00:20:19,681
You're the one
who's quibbling.
293
00:20:19,915 --> 00:20:21,716
- What?
- Watch your language.
294
00:20:22,918 --> 00:20:24,686
Hidemune is my child.
295
00:20:25,955 --> 00:20:28,256
What's wrong with a child
calling his mother, "Mother,"
296
00:20:28,257 --> 00:20:30,258
and a mother calling her child,
"Child."
297
00:20:30,259 --> 00:20:31,893
Hidemune is my child.
298
00:20:31,894 --> 00:20:33,428
I am the mother.
299
00:20:34,130 --> 00:20:35,430
You're a surrogate.
300
00:20:38,667 --> 00:20:41,503
How coldhearted of you.
301
00:20:43,939 --> 00:20:46,107
You're taking away
my flesh and blood...
302
00:20:46,108 --> 00:20:47,976
I'm not taking him from you.
303
00:20:49,378 --> 00:20:52,347
Last night, I dreamt about
the time I was in Iwadeyama.
304
00:20:54,049 --> 00:20:57,252
I longed for Hidemune
and was so sad...
305
00:20:57,253 --> 00:20:58,953
How silly.
306
00:20:59,155 --> 00:21:01,723
Don't you miss Lady Ohigashi?
307
00:21:02,258 --> 00:21:03,925
Don't you want to see her?
308
00:21:03,926 --> 00:21:05,360
Don't say such stupid things.
309
00:21:24,280 --> 00:21:24,846
My Lord.
310
00:21:25,848 --> 00:21:27,449
Sir Shigezane...
311
00:21:31,754 --> 00:21:33,288
AWOL?
312
00:21:34,123 --> 00:21:37,025
I had men secretly
look for him.
313
00:21:37,393 --> 00:21:39,861
It seems he's already
left Kyoto.
314
00:21:40,763 --> 00:21:43,465
Insolent fellow.
What is he thinking?
315
00:21:43,466 --> 00:21:44,966
Forgive me.
316
00:21:45,134 --> 00:21:48,169
His displeasure with me
must be the cause.
317
00:21:48,170 --> 00:21:49,704
We have to do something.
318
00:21:49,772 --> 00:21:51,372
Tell Shigezane's retainers
319
00:21:51,373 --> 00:21:53,074
to go find him and
bring him back now.
320
00:21:53,075 --> 00:21:56,644
Some say he went west,
some north.
321
00:21:57,279 --> 00:21:59,247
We have no idea
where he went.
322
00:21:59,248 --> 00:22:01,115
Find him if you have to
go to the ends of the earth.
323
00:22:01,116 --> 00:22:04,752
But if we make a fuss,
people will know.
324
00:22:05,354 --> 00:22:06,821
Damn him!
325
00:22:06,822 --> 00:22:08,957
My Lord.
I have a request.
326
00:22:10,226 --> 00:22:13,728
Please tell me to take
a leave of absence.
327
00:22:14,497 --> 00:22:19,367
I would like to go incognito
and look for Sir Shigezane.
328
00:22:19,368 --> 00:22:20,902
Where would you look?
329
00:22:21,403 --> 00:22:23,738
First, I'll go back and look
everywhere in our fief.
330
00:22:23,739 --> 00:22:26,341
Then I'll go to the castle towns
of the likely lords.
331
00:22:26,675 --> 00:22:28,810
I will find him no matter
how long it takes
332
00:22:28,811 --> 00:22:30,678
and beseech him to return.
333
00:22:30,679 --> 00:22:32,046
You don't have to beg.
334
00:22:33,015 --> 00:22:35,683
If he's going to be stubborn,
I'll do what I have to do.
335
00:22:36,352 --> 00:22:37,685
My Lord.
336
00:22:38,087 --> 00:22:41,055
Sir Shigezane is the pillar
of the Date clan.
337
00:22:41,857 --> 00:22:45,126
He supported you through
Ou's worn-torn period,
338
00:22:45,127 --> 00:22:46,561
came through many
perilous battles,
339
00:22:46,595 --> 00:22:48,763
and is your number one
meritorious retainer.
340
00:22:58,908 --> 00:23:01,976
Tsunamoto Moniwa,
permitted a leave of absence,
341
00:23:01,977 --> 00:23:04,078
left to find Shigezane.
342
00:23:06,048 --> 00:23:09,317
But he could not find clues
to his whereabouts.
343
00:23:18,193 --> 00:23:20,895
Reporting.
It's Mitsunari.
344
00:23:29,138 --> 00:23:33,074
China's envoys Yang Fangheng
and Shen Weijing
345
00:23:33,075 --> 00:23:36,778
will be arriving next month
with the emperor's letter.
346
00:23:39,582 --> 00:23:43,518
I presume my seven
conditions for peace
347
00:23:43,519 --> 00:23:50,725
have been relayed to
China's emperor?
348
00:23:52,595 --> 00:23:54,329
Yes.
349
00:24:00,202 --> 00:24:02,804
I'm looking forward
to his reply.
350
00:24:05,441 --> 00:24:08,509
I'm going to live a long time.
351
00:24:14,016 --> 00:24:19,253
Philippines, Vietnam, India...
352
00:24:22,191 --> 00:24:24,959
How many countries
can I conquer?
353
00:24:45,614 --> 00:24:49,117
Fushimi castle's renovation
was completed that year.
354
00:24:49,918 --> 00:24:51,853
Masamune, promoted to
355
00:24:51,854 --> 00:24:54,822
underchamberlain
of the fourth order and
356
00:24:54,823 --> 00:24:57,725
minor captain of the right
of the Inner Palace guards,
357
00:24:57,726 --> 00:24:59,927
invited the taiko to the
Date mansion to thank him.
358
00:26:03,559 --> 00:26:04,192
Your Highness!
359
00:26:04,960 --> 00:26:05,626
Your Highness.
360
00:26:06,128 --> 00:26:07,662
- Your Highness.
- Your Highness.
361
00:26:07,696 --> 00:26:08,930
- Your Highness.
- Stand back.
362
00:26:09,631 --> 00:26:11,432
- Your Highness.
- Are you all right?
363
00:26:11,967 --> 00:26:13,034
- Your Highness.
- Your Highness.
364
00:26:13,235 --> 00:26:13,935
Your Highness...
365
00:26:17,039 --> 00:26:17,905
Your Highness.
366
00:26:18,407 --> 00:26:19,974
Don't move.
367
00:26:20,776 --> 00:26:21,743
Your Highness.
368
00:26:28,016 --> 00:26:31,252
You'll get hurt...
Your Highness.
369
00:26:33,188 --> 00:26:35,790
Rikyu...
I want Rikyu...
370
00:26:35,791 --> 00:26:38,626
Summon Rikyu.
Where is he?
371
00:26:41,463 --> 00:26:45,733
Rikyu committed suicide
some years ago.
372
00:26:51,707 --> 00:26:52,940
Masamune.
373
00:26:56,612 --> 00:26:59,680
The drums...
Another dance.
374
00:27:00,582 --> 00:27:02,250
- Your Highness.
- Never mind.
375
00:27:29,311 --> 00:27:31,512
September, 1596.
376
00:27:31,513 --> 00:27:33,915
Hideyoshi, meeting
the Chinese envoys,
377
00:27:33,916 --> 00:27:37,618
was incensed his peace
proposal had been ignored.
378
00:27:37,619 --> 00:27:40,388
The following year,
in February 1597,
379
00:27:40,389 --> 00:27:43,191
he again ordered troops
to be sent to Korea.
380
00:27:44,359 --> 00:27:47,061
Masamune, then 31,
formed the expedition army,
381
00:27:47,062 --> 00:27:50,164
determining quotas of soldiers
for each of the lords.
382
00:27:56,371 --> 00:27:59,574
The expedition force
will number 147,090.
383
00:28:00,709 --> 00:28:03,277
Sir Mitsunari says
this is not enough.
384
00:28:04,213 --> 00:28:06,414
This is foolhardy.
385
00:28:06,682 --> 00:28:08,182
Excuse me?
386
00:28:08,684 --> 00:28:12,787
We can't win a war
conceived in anger.
387
00:28:15,691 --> 00:28:17,959
How is the taiko?
388
00:28:20,429 --> 00:28:23,231
Not good.
389
00:28:28,203 --> 00:28:30,838
I see.
Now I understand...
390
00:28:32,975 --> 00:28:36,878
...why Sir Mitsunari pays
frequent visits to Lady Yodo.
391
00:28:40,716 --> 00:28:43,251
I'd like to hear
what you really think.
392
00:28:43,252 --> 00:28:45,119
Me?
393
00:28:46,755 --> 00:28:49,724
If something happens
to the taiko,
394
00:28:49,725 --> 00:28:52,059
who will rule the country?
395
00:28:58,734 --> 00:29:04,438
Since the heir is too young,
the country will be ruled by
396
00:29:04,439 --> 00:29:08,075
the consensus of the chief
minister and five ministers.
397
00:29:08,076 --> 00:29:11,512
I presume you will steer
the consensus.
398
00:29:11,513 --> 00:29:17,451
Not so. All ten of us
may think we have the lead.
399
00:29:40,409 --> 00:29:44,312
We must win the war.
400
00:29:47,783 --> 00:29:51,218
Or else I'll be demonized.
401
00:29:58,293 --> 00:30:04,398
I became the ruler of Japan.
I can get everything I want...
402
00:30:08,904 --> 00:30:11,872
...but not youth.
403
00:30:19,014 --> 00:30:20,781
Masamune.
404
00:30:23,618 --> 00:30:27,822
No one defied me as much
as you did.
405
00:30:33,662 --> 00:30:37,565
If I had a son like you...
406
00:30:46,908 --> 00:30:49,577
Do not forget
your debt to me.
407
00:30:51,613 --> 00:30:53,481
I will never forget.
408
00:30:58,220 --> 00:31:01,222
About Hideyori...
409
00:31:09,965 --> 00:31:12,233
Be loyal to him.
410
00:31:14,102 --> 00:31:15,770
Will you?
411
00:31:21,376 --> 00:31:24,178
February, 1598.
412
00:31:24,179 --> 00:31:29,050
Hideyoshi transferred Echigo's
Kagekatsu Uesugi to Aizu
413
00:31:29,051 --> 00:31:33,387
and placed Ujisato Gamo's
son Hidetaka in Utsunomiya.
414
00:31:35,057 --> 00:31:41,162
The fief consists of Aizu,
Sendo, Oitama and Katta.
415
00:31:41,163 --> 00:31:42,630
How loathsome.
416
00:31:42,631 --> 00:31:45,900
Is his intention to watch
Date more closely?
417
00:31:45,901 --> 00:31:48,235
It's probably
Sir Mitsunari Ishida's idea.
418
00:31:48,236 --> 00:31:50,638
He's really vindictive.
419
00:31:52,574 --> 00:31:53,974
That's not all.
420
00:31:54,943 --> 00:31:56,944
The reason he put Uesugi
in Aizu
421
00:31:56,945 --> 00:31:59,346
is to immobilize Ieyasu
Tokugawa from the rear.
422
00:31:59,915 --> 00:32:01,248
I see.
423
00:32:01,983 --> 00:32:05,920
Mitsunari is paving the way
for when Hideyoshi is gone.
424
00:32:06,521 --> 00:32:11,792
The biggest thorn in his side
is Ieyasu Tokugawa.
425
00:32:12,928 --> 00:32:14,862
Needless to say,
we have to be vigilant.
426
00:32:15,263 --> 00:32:19,934
Between Ishida
and Tokugawa...
427
00:32:19,935 --> 00:32:22,203
Who do you think
has the mettle?
428
00:32:25,207 --> 00:32:26,440
I can't say.
429
00:32:27,943 --> 00:32:30,111
Mitsunari Ishida is razor sharp.
430
00:32:30,579 --> 00:32:33,047
While he pays lip service
to the taiko,
431
00:32:33,048 --> 00:32:36,484
he's buttering up Lady Yodo
to get Hideyori on his side.
432
00:32:37,319 --> 00:32:41,288
In that case Mitsunari has
the upper hand.
433
00:32:41,289 --> 00:32:46,660
Ieyasu had his heir marry
Lady Yodo's sister.
434
00:32:46,995 --> 00:32:49,630
He may strengthen his
influence by marriage.
435
00:32:50,799 --> 00:32:55,736
Either way Lady Yodo
is the key.
436
00:32:57,072 --> 00:32:59,373
What would Shigezane say
437
00:32:59,374 --> 00:33:02,042
of this new
land allocation?
438
00:33:03,378 --> 00:33:05,179
"I can't stand it anymore!"
439
00:33:12,154 --> 00:33:13,921
Hasn't he been found yet?
440
00:33:15,257 --> 00:33:19,193
We're trying our best, but...
441
00:33:43,051 --> 00:33:47,054
Even though his war in Korea
was not going well,
442
00:33:47,055 --> 00:33:51,225
Hideyoshi, though ill, held
a cherry blossom fete at Daigo.
443
00:33:52,494 --> 00:33:56,063
This would become his last
official function.
444
00:34:03,638 --> 00:34:04,638
Your Highness.
445
00:34:06,041 --> 00:34:13,380
An elephant stepped on me.
446
00:34:17,719 --> 00:34:22,223
You were dreaming.
447
00:34:24,459 --> 00:34:31,098
The elephant you saw
was a gift from the Philippines.
448
00:34:39,074 --> 00:34:40,808
Hiroimaru...
449
00:34:49,150 --> 00:34:52,253
Have you ever seen
an elephant?
450
00:34:52,721 --> 00:34:54,922
Yes, it was huge.
451
00:34:56,091 --> 00:35:00,194
Even though it was big,
it was gentle.
452
00:35:01,162 --> 00:35:02,763
And...
453
00:35:04,299 --> 00:35:06,500
It had a long nose.
454
00:35:15,777 --> 00:35:20,014
You have a good memory.
455
00:35:29,357 --> 00:35:31,825
Everyone has gathered.
456
00:35:36,564 --> 00:35:38,098
Your Highness?
457
00:36:02,390 --> 00:36:03,824
Closer.
458
00:36:18,840 --> 00:36:20,441
Chief Councilor of State.
459
00:36:38,159 --> 00:36:46,667
You, Sir Maeda, and I
are childhood friends.
460
00:36:51,406 --> 00:37:03,817
I ask you to be
Hideyori's guardian.
461
00:37:07,255 --> 00:37:11,558
I accept with honor.
462
00:37:18,466 --> 00:37:21,802
I'm counting on you.
463
00:37:25,240 --> 00:37:28,008
I shall do my best.
464
00:37:45,360 --> 00:37:47,795
Lord Keeper of the Privy Seal.
465
00:37:58,606 --> 00:38:05,846
What is the name of
your granddaughter?
466
00:38:05,847 --> 00:38:08,882
Princess Sen.
467
00:38:15,290 --> 00:38:17,858
Proceed with...
468
00:38:19,294 --> 00:38:21,829
Princess Sen's...
469
00:38:27,435 --> 00:38:31,472
engagement to Hiroimaru.
470
00:38:35,643 --> 00:38:41,315
I am very honored.
471
00:38:43,952 --> 00:38:51,191
I'm counting on you.
472
00:38:51,192 --> 00:38:57,598
Take care of Hideyori.
473
00:39:07,141 --> 00:39:09,610
Please.
474
00:39:13,314 --> 00:39:15,015
I shall.
475
00:39:17,151 --> 00:39:21,188
Gen-i Maeda.
476
00:39:24,459 --> 00:39:37,971
You are the caretaker lord
of Fushimi Castle.
477
00:39:40,375 --> 00:39:44,011
I'm counting on you.
478
00:39:48,716 --> 00:39:50,217
Nagamasa.
479
00:40:01,729 --> 00:40:10,404
You are Nene's
brother-in-law.
480
00:40:12,907 --> 00:40:20,981
You know your role.
481
00:40:30,091 --> 00:40:32,059
Mitsunari.
482
00:40:42,136 --> 00:40:51,345
You will instruct Hideyori
483
00:40:55,817 --> 00:41:00,854
according to the policies
of the chief councilor of state.
484
00:41:04,292 --> 00:41:08,762
I am honored by this
most important role.
485
00:41:11,466 --> 00:41:17,471
Even if Hideyori hits you
486
00:41:18,239 --> 00:41:21,808
or orders you to be his
slipper servant,
487
00:41:23,911 --> 00:41:31,752
think of it as my doing.
488
00:41:33,988 --> 00:41:37,824
I swear to the gods
I will obey.
489
00:41:54,509 --> 00:42:00,047
I have no other wishes.
490
00:42:10,024 --> 00:42:17,397
Please...
491
00:42:22,336 --> 00:42:26,940
take care of Hideyori.
492
00:42:31,345 --> 00:42:45,225
I'm begging you.
493
00:43:20,065 --> 00:43:23,701
August 18, 1598.
494
00:43:24,665 --> 00:43:28,201
Taiko Hideyoshi, leaving
his parting poem
495
00:43:28,202 --> 00:43:30,235
ended his tumultuous life.
496
00:43:31,639 --> 00:43:34,674
He was 62.
