EPISODE 3: STRATEGY

27
00:02:49,036 --> 00:02:52,206
<i>In March of 1582,</i>
<i>the Takeda met with demise.</i>

28
00:02:52,706 --> 00:02:55,509
<i>Former vassals were being</i>
<i>killed by Nobunaga,</i>

29
00:02:55,743 --> 00:02:59,146
<i>but Masayuki Sanada decides</i>
<i>to serve the Oda.</i>

30
00:02:59,513 --> 00:03:03,017
<i>Sanada had no assurance that</i>
<i>the Oda would accept them.</i>

31
00:03:05,753 --> 00:03:06,921
{\an8}SANADA FIEF IN SHINANO

32
00:03:06,987 --> 00:03:09,657
{\an8}<i>The Oda army was approaching.</i>

33
00:03:10,624 --> 00:03:15,062
{\an8}<i>Masayuki returned to the</i>
<i>Sanada homeland in Shinshu.</i>

34
00:03:15,129 --> 00:03:15,796
{\an8}LORD OF AWA, SANADA MASAYUKI

{\an8}GENJIRO NOBUSHIGE SANADA

{\an8}KIRI

37
00:03:42,489 --> 00:03:43,357
I see.

38
00:03:44,258 --> 00:03:45,726
Brother, that sounds like you.

39
00:03:46,360 --> 00:03:48,329
But the alliance with the
Uesugi remains solid,

40
00:03:48,862 --> 00:03:51,065
and the secret pact with
the Hojo is firming up.

41
00:03:51,532 --> 00:03:52,199
{\an8}NOBUTADA SANADA

42
00:03:52,266 --> 00:03:57,004
{\an8}Kagekatsu Uesugi and Ujimasa
Hojo will accept us.

43
00:03:57,204 --> 00:03:57,938
{\an8}GENZABURO NOBUYUK SANADA

44
00:03:58,005 --> 00:03:59,340
{\an8}Why side with the Oda?

45
00:03:59,974 --> 00:04:01,575
{\an8}For better or worse,

46
00:04:03,077 --> 00:04:05,412
I want to take a gamble on Nobunaga.

47
00:04:08,382 --> 00:04:11,752
Nobutada, your long
negotiations with the Hojo,

48
00:04:12,286 --> 00:04:13,153
were excellent.

49
00:04:15,689 --> 00:04:18,792
However, it's what I decided.
Please understand.

50
00:04:20,694 --> 00:04:21,562
All right.

51
00:04:23,797 --> 00:04:25,899
Uncle, it's as you've heard.
Is that all right?

52
00:04:26,467 --> 00:04:30,971
{\an8}I will simply follow what
you, the leader, decide.

53
00:04:31,872 --> 00:04:33,073
I appreciate it.

54
00:04:35,009 --> 00:04:37,978
Come to think of it, your father...

55
00:04:38,812 --> 00:04:41,815
gambled on Lord Shingen,
soon after he became head.

56
00:04:42,950 --> 00:04:46,453
That's how he built the
foundation for the Sanada.

57
00:04:47,688 --> 00:04:49,189
Taking a chance for better or for worse,

58
00:04:50,958 --> 00:04:52,526
is our clan custom.

59
00:05:06,373 --> 00:05:07,941
What are you doing?

60
00:05:08,008 --> 00:05:08,876
Is there a problem?

61
00:05:09,710 --> 00:05:12,246
-The battle meeting has already started.
-I wasn't invited.

62
00:05:12,746 --> 00:05:13,647
It's nothing new.

63
00:05:14,848 --> 00:05:18,285
You worked hard this time,
so you should attend.

64
00:05:18,352 --> 00:05:19,219
Quiet.

65
00:05:19,787 --> 00:05:21,755
That's how it is with second sons.

66
00:05:23,424 --> 00:05:24,925
{\an8}Will you pass that string?

67
00:05:24,992 --> 00:05:26,527
{\an8}SANJURO YAZAWA

68
00:05:32,733 --> 00:05:33,600
Uncle!

69
00:05:35,202 --> 00:05:36,070
Is it over?

70
00:05:36,970 --> 00:05:37,838
Sanjuro.

71
00:05:38,372 --> 00:05:40,140
Yoritsuna wanted to see you.

72
00:05:43,477 --> 00:05:45,112
You haven't seen your father in a while.

73
00:05:45,546 --> 00:05:46,180
Go on.

74
00:05:47,114 --> 00:05:47,981
Excuse me.

75
00:05:58,692 --> 00:05:59,727
What did you think?

76
00:06:00,527 --> 00:06:02,262
-Of what?
-Father's decision.

77
00:06:02,863 --> 00:06:03,864
Were you shocked?

78
00:06:04,665 --> 00:06:05,766
No, I wasn't.

79
00:06:06,967 --> 00:06:08,168
But that would be a lie.

80
00:06:10,604 --> 00:06:12,639
Brother decided on it with resolve.

81
00:06:14,108 --> 00:06:18,112
It's my duty to help him
achieve his goals.

82
00:06:19,346 --> 00:06:20,247
Uncle, you are...

83
00:06:21,515 --> 00:06:22,683
...wonderful!

84
00:06:23,450 --> 00:06:26,386
-What's that about?
-You are always in Father's shadow.

85
00:06:29,556 --> 00:06:31,892
I played up to the Uesugi
and the Hojo while serving

86
00:06:32,593 --> 00:06:35,329
the Takeda. That is a task
that only I can do.

87
00:06:36,330 --> 00:06:39,366
I'm the one who's been
manipulating them.

88
00:06:42,803 --> 00:06:45,139
Don't underestimate me, Genjiro.

89
00:06:48,208 --> 00:06:51,845
Uncle, you are my role model.

90
00:06:54,748 --> 00:06:59,887
I want to be a brother
like you for Nobuyuki.

91
00:07:16,003 --> 00:07:17,604
Oko, I'm back.

92
00:07:20,474 --> 00:07:21,942
Welcome back.

93
00:07:27,848 --> 00:07:29,116
How are you feeling?

94
00:07:29,683 --> 00:07:30,551
Well...

95
00:07:30,918 --> 00:07:33,921
Please don't worry about me.

96
00:07:34,388 --> 00:07:36,256
{\an8}KO

97
00:07:36,323 --> 00:07:39,726
{\an8}Sir Genzaburo, you are the Sanada heir.

98
00:07:40,761 --> 00:07:42,296
Please don't mind me

99
00:07:42,963 --> 00:07:48,135
and focus on doing great
feats for the clan.

100
00:07:50,604 --> 00:07:52,539
Go back to bed.

101
00:07:53,707 --> 00:07:54,608
Lie down.

102
00:07:56,009 --> 00:07:59,413
How do we handle the other provinces?

103
00:08:00,514 --> 00:08:06,587
Is it all-or-nothing, after all?

104
00:08:06,653 --> 00:08:08,288
Of course.

105
00:08:09,223 --> 00:08:11,325
After I compile the provinces
in this region,

106
00:08:11,892 --> 00:08:14,361
I'll forge over to the Oda.

107
00:08:16,463 --> 00:08:19,032
That should have an impact
on Nobunaga's attitude, too.

108
00:08:19,833 --> 00:08:21,001
{\an8}NAIKI TAKANASHI

109
00:08:21,068 --> 00:08:23,971
{\an8}They are very hard to deal with.

110
00:08:26,006 --> 00:08:31,278
How willing will they be?

111
00:08:33,814 --> 00:08:35,148
Just leave things to me.

112
00:08:42,155 --> 00:08:46,994
<i>The Sanada fief was in east</i>
<i>Shinano, in Chiisagata-gun.</i>

113
00:08:48,161 --> 00:08:52,866
<i>Chiisagata was divided into the</i>
<i>Sanada, Muroga, and Nezu.</i>

114
00:08:53,300 --> 00:08:57,137
<i>Those areas were governed</i>
<i>by their respective lords.</i>

115
00:08:58,605 --> 00:09:02,242
<i>Masayuki Sanada was just</i>
<i>one of those lords.</i>

116
00:09:03,677 --> 00:09:05,045
I don't understand.

117
00:09:05,579 --> 00:09:10,217
The Sanada clan is facing a crisis,
but the lord looks cheerful.

118
00:09:10,784 --> 00:09:15,522
The greater the dilemma,
the harder the Sanada fight.

119
00:09:16,924 --> 00:09:20,060
You still have all those kimonos?

120
00:09:20,494 --> 00:09:22,696
I only gave a small quantity
to the farmers.

121
00:09:23,130 --> 00:09:23,830
{\an8}TORI

122
00:09:23,897 --> 00:09:26,300
{\an8}You could've gotten killed.

123
00:09:26,633 --> 00:09:27,501
But you had to be tight.

124
00:09:28,001 --> 00:09:29,937
{\an8}These are my treasures.

125
00:09:33,307 --> 00:09:35,642
How is Matsu doing?

126
00:09:36,476 --> 00:09:38,845
She hasn't eaten for the past few days.

127
00:09:41,415 --> 00:09:44,718
Is Shigemasa still missing?

128
00:09:45,452 --> 00:09:47,454
I want him to be alive.

129
00:09:47,621 --> 00:09:49,122
He must be dead.

130
00:09:52,759 --> 00:09:54,294
Even if he were alive...

131
00:09:54,895 --> 00:09:57,597
the Oyamada family are traitors.

132
00:09:57,664 --> 00:09:58,398
{\an8}MATSU

133
00:09:58,465 --> 00:10:00,734
{\an8}He can't come back here.

134
00:10:13,447 --> 00:10:16,650
{\an8}<i>Takato Castle was the Takeda's</i>
<i>former military stronghold.</i>

135

{\an8}TAKATO CASTLE IN SHINANO

136

{\an8}<i>Ieyasu Tokugawa had received orders from</i>

137
00:10:20,520 --> 00:10:23,090
<i>Nobunaga Oda to prepare</i>

138
00:10:25,025 --> 00:10:27,928
Lord Nobunaga likes it clean.

139

{\an8}IEYASU TOKUGAWA

140
00:10:28,762 --> 00:10:30,964
{\an8}Make certain there are
no signs of battle.

141
00:10:31,498 --> 00:10:32,399
Very well.

142
00:10:33,567 --> 00:10:35,302
Wash off the blood stains.

143
00:10:35,902 --> 00:10:37,671
Pull out all the arrows.

144
00:10:38,472 --> 00:10:39,339
Very well.

145
00:10:40,574 --> 00:10:43,010
Scatter new sands on the ground.

146
00:10:43,210 --> 00:10:44,411
{\an8}Very well.

147
00:10:44,478 --> 00:10:46,179
{\an8}KAZUMASA ISHIKAWA

148
00:10:46,246 --> 00:10:47,914
Remove all horse manure.

149

{\an8}MASANOBU HONDA

150
00:10:55,055 --> 00:10:55,922
Go.

151
00:10:56,323 --> 00:10:57,190
Yes, sir.

152
00:11:00,193 --> 00:11:01,928
In the Koshu invasion,

153
00:11:03,330 --> 00:11:05,465
the only one to return fire
from the Takeda,

154
00:11:06,099 --> 00:11:08,101
was this Takato Castle.

155
00:11:09,469 --> 00:11:12,172
I heard it was quite a fierce battle.

156
00:11:14,741 --> 00:11:15,609
Lord.

157
00:11:17,077 --> 00:11:17,944
Look there.

158
00:11:23,483 --> 00:11:24,351
Let's turn around.

159
00:11:26,553 --> 00:11:27,421
Lord!

160
00:11:30,257 --> 00:11:32,225
What's wrong, Heihachiro?

161
00:11:34,361 --> 00:11:35,695
{\an8}Outside the castle,

00:11:36,630 --> 00:11:40,333
{\an8}I found where Lord Nobumori Nishina
committed suicide.

164
00:11:41,768 --> 00:11:42,636
Oh?

165
00:11:43,003 --> 00:11:45,572
His blood stains are there.

166
00:11:46,373 --> 00:11:47,274
Let us go there.

167
00:11:48,308 --> 00:11:49,509
I don't want to see it.

168
00:11:49,643 --> 00:11:53,113
Showing respect towards a good warrior,

169
00:11:54,147 --> 00:11:55,715
is samurai decency.

170
00:11:57,451 --> 00:11:58,318
Let us go there.

171
00:11:59,186 --> 00:12:00,053
Please follow me.

172
00:12:02,255 --> 00:12:03,423
I don't want to go outside.

173
00:12:03,857 --> 00:12:06,093
-Lord?
-There may be Takeda survivors.

174
00:12:08,795 --> 00:12:13,366
You'll be safe with Heihachiro.

175
00:12:14,634 --> 00:12:16,570
Let us go now.

176
00:12:17,871 --> 00:12:18,738
Come.

177
00:12:25,011 --> 00:12:28,782
What's become of Katsuyori Takeda's head?

178
00:12:29,983 --> 00:12:34,454
Lord Nobunaga is supposed
to personally inspect it.

179
00:12:34,988 --> 00:12:35,922
What about after that?

180
00:12:36,189 --> 00:12:39,559
It'll probably be displayed
as a warning to others.

181
00:12:41,027 --> 00:12:42,162
After that is fine.

182
00:12:43,597 --> 00:12:48,168
Let's give Katsuyori a warm burial.

183
00:12:51,304 --> 00:12:54,608
That is a great idea.

184
00:12:56,176 --> 00:12:58,411
His soul will find repose.

185
00:13:01,882 --> 00:13:02,749
Lord.

186
00:13:19,266 --> 00:13:20,734
After we give him a burial,

187
00:13:21,401 --> 00:13:27,174
we'll spread the news
throughout Kai and Shinano.

188
00:13:28,775 --> 00:13:30,577
That's brilliant, Masanobu.

189
00:13:32,946 --> 00:13:35,649
That's what's important.

190
00:13:36,516 --> 00:13:43,290
We must grasp the hearts
of the Takeda survivors.

191
00:13:45,058 --> 00:13:50,397
As long as I'm not cursed
by Katsuyori's spirit.

192
00:13:51,264 --> 00:13:51,731
Who's there!?

193
00:13:57,537 --> 00:13:58,505
Are you a Takeda?

194
00:13:58,772 --> 00:14:01,708
I... don't know how to answer that.

195
00:14:01,775 --> 00:14:02,809
Are you foe or ally?

196
00:14:03,276 --> 00:14:05,045
It'll take long to explain.

197
00:14:05,345 --> 00:14:06,346
Don't waste your breath!

198
00:14:06,613 --> 00:14:07,480
Stop!

199
00:14:09,683 --> 00:14:13,520
The battle... is over.

200
00:14:24,998 --> 00:14:25,865
Go.

201
00:14:30,303 --> 00:14:31,171
<i>The following day,</i>

202
00:14:31,972 --> 00:14:34,507
<i>Nobunaga Oda's army entered Shinano.</i>

203
00:14:36,042 --> 00:14:38,445
<i>The provincial lords were</i>
<i>pressed for a decision.</i>

204
00:14:39,346 --> 00:14:43,183
No one can stop Nobunaga's momentum.

205
00:14:43,950 --> 00:14:47,487
It's wise to join hands with
him as soon as possible.

206
00:14:48,188 --> 00:14:52,058
Are we sure the Oda will accept us?

207
00:14:54,194 --> 00:14:57,497
{\an8}The priests at Mount Hiei
were burned to death.

208
00:14:57,564 --> 00:14:58,298
{\an8}MASATAKE MUROGA

209
00:14:58,365 --> 00:15:01,067
{\an8}We could all be killed.

210
00:15:01,534 --> 00:15:04,204
I'll stake my life in persuading him.

211
00:15:04,771 --> 00:15:06,773
Sanada, let me ask you this.

212
00:15:07,807 --> 00:15:09,175
What is it, Ideura?

213
00:15:09,609 --> 00:15:15,081
{\an8}Why do you think so
highly of Nobunaga Oda?

214
00:15:16,049 --> 00:15:17,083
It's an instinct.

215
00:15:18,418 --> 00:15:20,487
While serving near our lord,

216
00:15:21,254 --> 00:15:26,593
you failed to detect Anayama
and Oyamada's betrayal.

217
00:15:27,827 --> 00:15:29,296
So why should we trust
that instinct of yours?

218
00:15:31,631 --> 00:15:32,766
You've got a point there.

219
00:15:34,100 --> 00:15:39,472
In the first place, I don't
like you acting as our head.

220
00:15:40,240 --> 00:15:43,476
My father was deeply
trusted by the lord.

221
00:15:43,543 --> 00:15:45,078
The Takeda have fallen!

222
00:15:45,745 --> 00:15:49,182
-My father always has...
-Shut up, kid!

223
00:15:50,150 --> 00:15:54,187
Would you be satisfied if
I left it to your discretion?

224
00:15:54,788 --> 00:15:55,722
As I'd want it.

225
00:15:57,290 --> 00:15:58,291
How do the others feel?

226
00:16:04,964 --> 00:16:10,570
We must show Nobunaga
that we are united.

227
00:16:11,938 --> 00:16:15,141
As the delegate,

228
00:16:15,942 --> 00:16:18,845
I'd like to meet Nobunaga.

229
00:16:21,781 --> 00:16:24,084
We are not your vassals!

230
00:16:25,185 --> 00:16:28,355
It won't be easy to bring them together.

231
00:16:29,189 --> 00:16:31,157
So it appears.

232
00:16:31,891 --> 00:16:33,360
Without personal benefit,

233
00:16:33,760 --> 00:16:36,629
Father is thinking of them.
Why can't they see that?

234
00:16:37,063 --> 00:16:40,767
If Nobunaga acknowledges
me as the delegate,

235
00:16:41,101 --> 00:16:43,069
Chiisagata would be mine.

236
00:16:44,637 --> 00:16:45,705
How disappointing.

237
00:16:47,107 --> 00:16:48,575
There was personal benefit?

238
00:16:49,876 --> 00:16:51,044
Genzaburo.

239
00:16:52,011 --> 00:16:55,181
Everyone is motivated by personal greed.

240
00:16:58,685 --> 00:17:00,019
I guess I have no choice.

241
00:17:02,355 --> 00:17:03,857
Let's come up with another plan, Naiki.

242
00:17:05,291 --> 00:17:06,326
Very well.

243
00:17:34,320 --> 00:17:35,355
Welcome back.

244
00:17:36,756 --> 00:17:37,624
Right.

245
00:17:39,592 --> 00:17:41,928
What a world it's turned into.

246
00:18:02,148 --> 00:18:05,018
There's about to be drastic
changes in this country,

247
00:18:05,785 --> 00:18:08,321
but the mountains and
skies remain unchanged.

248
00:18:08,788 --> 00:18:10,223
-Huh?
-What?

249
00:18:10,723 --> 00:18:12,826
You weren't looking at the sky.

250
00:18:16,930 --> 00:18:17,864
Why don't you go to her?

251
00:18:18,531 --> 00:18:20,400
-She looks busy.
-Don't you want to see her?

252
00:18:21,468 --> 00:18:22,335
I have a favor to ask of you.

253
00:18:25,505 --> 00:18:27,774
Will you give this to her?

254
00:18:28,508 --> 00:18:29,375
What is it?

255
00:18:31,644 --> 00:18:33,713
You suggested a comb.

256
00:18:34,113 --> 00:18:34,981
Did I?

257
00:18:35,048 --> 00:18:37,617
You said all women would be
happy to receive a comb.

258
00:18:37,851 --> 00:18:38,985
Did I say that?

259
00:18:39,719 --> 00:18:40,587
Stop that.

260
00:18:41,554 --> 00:18:43,790
I'm amazed you had time to buy it.

261
00:18:43,857 --> 00:18:46,025
A merchant from Kyoto was in Shinpu.

262
00:18:46,092 --> 00:18:48,595
Being the second son, you were idle.

263
00:18:48,661 --> 00:18:50,864
-That's none of your business.
-Give it to her yourself.

264
00:18:50,930 --> 00:18:53,933
-Please!
-Why do I have to do that?

265
00:18:58,838 --> 00:18:59,706
This is for you.

266
00:19:05,311 --> 00:19:06,179
Where's the box?

267
00:19:11,751 --> 00:19:13,853
What a big drop.

268
00:19:16,656 --> 00:19:17,624
I guess I have no choice.

269
00:19:19,759 --> 00:19:21,261
Let's go together.

270
00:19:21,327 --> 00:19:23,096
-No, I can't.
-I'll go with you.

271
00:19:23,162 --> 00:19:25,331
No, I can't! Please!

272
00:19:32,171 --> 00:19:33,039
How unusual.

273
00:19:33,773 --> 00:19:35,942
{\an8}Someone wants to see you.

274
00:19:36,276 --> 00:19:37,143
Wants to see me?

275
00:19:40,213 --> 00:19:41,080
Hurry!

276
00:19:44,384 --> 00:19:46,719
Sir Genjiro, welcome back.

277
00:19:46,786 --> 00:19:48,154
I returned this morning.

278
00:19:48,821 --> 00:19:52,325
I heard it was a rough journey
from Shinpu to Iwabitsu.

279
00:19:54,127 --> 00:19:55,995
My brother and I were worried about you.

280
00:19:57,030 --> 00:20:01,100
But we believed you'd fight through it.

281
00:20:07,974 --> 00:20:09,909
Oh... another time.

282
00:20:10,443 --> 00:20:12,879
You're so troublesome.

283
00:20:13,746 --> 00:20:15,315
He brought back a gift.

284
00:20:16,015 --> 00:20:18,084
-It's a comb.
-Stop that.

285
00:20:26,593 --> 00:20:28,061
Is this for me?

286
00:20:28,595 --> 00:20:29,796
Yes.

287
00:20:33,533 --> 00:20:34,834
Is it all right to accept?

288
00:20:34,901 --> 00:20:36,769
I don't see why not.

289
00:20:37,670 --> 00:20:39,105
Thank you for this.

290
00:20:39,172 --> 00:20:40,974
If you like it, please use it.

291
00:20:48,181 --> 00:20:52,051
So they lined up the firewood
and are drying them out.

292
00:20:52,986 --> 00:20:55,188
I heard about Lord Takeda.

293
00:20:55,955 --> 00:20:58,958
I couldn't be of any help
when I was near him.

294
00:21:00,059 --> 00:21:02,095
Perhaps I shouldn't be
saying this, but...

295
00:21:03,997 --> 00:21:06,899
I'm just glad you're safe.

296
00:21:15,808 --> 00:21:16,676
I'm leaving.

297
00:21:18,645 --> 00:21:19,512
Huh?

298
00:21:20,913 --> 00:21:21,781
Sir Genjiro?

299
00:21:22,882 --> 00:21:23,983
Sakubei!

300
00:21:26,019 --> 00:21:29,022
Sir Genjiro!

301
00:21:30,189 --> 00:21:31,924
I'm glad you're safe!

302
00:21:32,425 --> 00:21:33,459
Please come inside.

303
00:21:33,559 --> 00:21:34,994
I'll be leaving now.

304
00:21:35,061 --> 00:21:36,963
{\an8}Don't say that and come in.

305
00:21:37,030 --> 00:21:38,364
{\an8}SAKUBEI HOTTA

306
00:21:38,431 --> 00:21:41,134
{\an8}My sister really missed you.

307
00:21:41,200 --> 00:21:42,068
Brother!

308
00:21:42,435 --> 00:21:43,903
Ume, show him in.

309
00:21:45,238 --> 00:21:46,939
Since you're here, why don't you go in?

310
00:21:48,975 --> 00:21:49,842
Come on in.

311
00:21:53,513 --> 00:21:55,314
Sakubei, bad news!

312
00:21:55,381 --> 00:21:58,084
-What happened?
-The Muroga men are here again.

313
00:21:58,551 --> 00:22:00,920
Sir Genjiro, I have urgent
business to tend to.

314
00:22:00,987 --> 00:22:02,755
-I have to go out.
-What happened?

315
00:22:04,057 --> 00:22:07,326
The Muroga farmers are
coming into our mountains.

316
00:22:07,727 --> 00:22:08,761
This is the third time.

317
00:22:09,095 --> 00:22:11,698
Their mountains were burned
in the recent battle

318
00:22:11,798 --> 00:22:13,466
so they can't get firewood.

319
00:22:14,067 --> 00:22:16,002
How dare they raid our
precious mountains.

320
00:22:16,602 --> 00:22:17,470
They can't be forgiven.

321
00:22:17,970 --> 00:22:19,372
-We'll chase them out.
-I'll go, too.

322
00:22:19,439 --> 00:22:22,241
No, we can't bother you with this.

323
00:22:22,308 --> 00:22:25,178
This is the Sanada's homeland.
I have to protect it.

324
00:22:29,182 --> 00:22:30,049
Brother.

325
00:22:30,783 --> 00:22:31,651
Let's go.

326
00:22:34,587 --> 00:22:35,855
Let's get them!

327
00:22:50,036 --> 00:22:52,972
Deliver this to Kagekatsu Uesugi.

328
00:22:55,141 --> 00:22:57,510
The Sanada's fate rides on that letter.

329
00:22:58,478 --> 00:22:59,812
Give it to him directly.

330
00:23:01,581 --> 00:23:02,482
What is this for?

331
00:23:03,316 --> 00:23:06,319
I received a secret letter from
the Uesugi this morning.

332
00:23:07,320 --> 00:23:10,323
They're desperate to get me
on their side.

333
00:23:11,324 --> 00:23:13,059
That is my reply to them.

334
00:23:18,965 --> 00:23:20,099
What did you reply?

335
00:23:21,000 --> 00:23:22,335
That I am grateful.

336
00:23:23,503 --> 00:23:25,605
Aren't we siding with the Oda?

337
00:23:25,805 --> 00:23:26,873
That's not set in stone.

338
00:23:28,574 --> 00:23:30,276
You never know what to expect.

339
00:23:31,410 --> 00:23:32,745
We have to play all our cards.

340
00:23:36,682 --> 00:23:37,817
Understood.

341
00:23:55,601 --> 00:23:56,469
Sasuke.

342
00:23:57,270 --> 00:23:59,438
The lord has ordered me
to accompany you.

343
00:24:01,107 --> 00:24:02,041
We'll leave immediately.

344
00:24:06,078 --> 00:24:06,946
Oko!

345
00:24:08,714 --> 00:24:10,216
Make the preparations.
I'm leaving on a trip.

346
00:24:11,484 --> 00:24:14,453
The Sanada's fate rides on
this important mission.

347
00:24:19,692 --> 00:24:23,029
Sir Genzaburo, you are the Sanada heir.

348
00:24:23,896 --> 00:24:25,464
Please don't mind me,

349
00:24:25,865 --> 00:24:30,036
and focus on doing great
feats for the clan.

350
00:24:31,704 --> 00:24:32,572
Are you all right?

351
00:24:33,139 --> 00:24:34,240
I already know that.

352
00:24:35,208 --> 00:24:37,510
It's all right. Rest in bed.

353
00:24:38,311 --> 00:24:39,178
All right.

354
00:24:54,927 --> 00:24:57,630
My vassal has been watching
the Sanada mansion.

355
00:24:58,931 --> 00:25:01,000
Earlier, his son, Genzaburo...

356
00:25:01,067 --> 00:25:02,001
I know.

357
00:25:04,070 --> 00:25:08,107
Your vassal wasn't the only one spying.

358
00:25:10,810 --> 00:25:12,044
Where is he headed?

359
00:25:15,014 --> 00:25:16,983
That Masayuki Sanada...

360
00:25:20,253 --> 00:25:22,822
urged us to join the Oda...

361
00:25:24,757 --> 00:25:27,159
but is planning to side
with the Uesugi.

362
00:25:27,727 --> 00:25:30,196
He's truly despicable.

363
00:25:42,875 --> 00:25:44,343
-Damn them!
-Wait!

364
00:25:44,644 --> 00:25:45,578
Please let me go!

365
00:25:45,645 --> 00:25:49,482
It's foolish to attack
the enemy from below.

366
00:25:49,882 --> 00:25:51,918
-They can see our every move.
-That's true.

367
00:25:51,984 --> 00:25:54,020
-Let's go above them.
-Right.

368
00:26:02,895 --> 00:26:04,063
Timber!

369
00:26:17,009 --> 00:26:17,877
Ouch!

370
00:26:22,014 --> 00:26:23,950
Wretches! You're back!

371
00:26:25,685 --> 00:26:26,652
Attack!

372
00:26:54,013 --> 00:26:54,880
Let me go!

373
00:27:10,896 --> 00:27:11,764
Run for it!

374
00:27:19,739 --> 00:27:20,840
Don't ever come back!

375
00:27:24,810 --> 00:27:25,511
Are you all right?

376
00:27:28,014 --> 00:27:29,281
Don't mind me.

377
00:27:30,649 --> 00:27:31,517
Sir Genjiro!

378
00:27:32,485 --> 00:27:33,452
Thank you!

379
00:27:33,519 --> 00:27:36,255
This can't go on forever.

380
00:27:36,322 --> 00:27:38,224
I'll ask my father to talk
to Lord Muroga.

381
00:27:39,492 --> 00:27:40,426
We'd appreciate that.

382
00:27:42,895 --> 00:27:46,399
I'm surprised. You look meek,
but you're tough.

383
00:27:46,966 --> 00:27:48,300
She's strong.

384
00:27:48,634 --> 00:27:50,503
When we were children,
she'd make me cry a lot.

385
00:27:50,569 --> 00:27:51,737
Don't tell him that!

386
00:27:55,207 --> 00:27:58,377
Oh... I might've sprained my foot.

387
00:27:59,712 --> 00:28:01,514
I don't think I can walk.

388
00:28:02,148 --> 00:28:03,416
Please go ahead.

389
00:28:11,090 --> 00:28:12,391
I'll carry you on my back.

390
00:28:13,392 --> 00:28:15,194
-What?
-Do I have a choice? Hurry.

391
00:28:17,663 --> 00:28:18,831
I'll carry you.

392
00:28:29,341 --> 00:28:30,676
Excuse me.

393
00:28:45,257 --> 00:28:46,125
What is that?

394
00:28:50,329 --> 00:28:51,397
Hey!

395
00:29:07,680 --> 00:29:08,647
Brother Shigemasa?

396
00:29:38,611 --> 00:29:39,145
The letter!

397
00:29:47,553 --> 00:29:48,420
After him!

398
00:30:10,643 --> 00:30:11,177
Sasuke?

399
00:30:13,579 --> 00:30:16,715
Sasuke!

400
00:30:20,052 --> 00:30:21,020
Just as I thought.

401
00:30:22,588 --> 00:30:24,690
The Sanada are in contact
with the Uesugi.

402
00:30:29,128 --> 00:30:30,663
That badger!

403
00:30:36,569 --> 00:30:39,972
When Nobunaga gets a hold of that,
it'll be over for the Sanada.

404
00:30:44,176 --> 00:30:45,477
I'm very sorry.

405
00:30:48,681 --> 00:30:51,784
I'll slit my belly in apology.

406
00:30:51,951 --> 00:30:54,420
-Never mind.
-But...!

407
00:30:55,988 --> 00:30:57,990
You did your part.

408
00:30:59,124 --> 00:31:00,492
That's all there is to it.

409
00:31:07,266 --> 00:31:10,703
I saw Masasuke Ideura
and Masatake Muroga.

410
00:31:11,737 --> 00:31:14,907
It's their men who attacked us.
I'll get the letter back at once!

411
00:31:14,974 --> 00:31:15,908
Sanada!

412
00:31:17,042 --> 00:31:18,577
Come on in!

413
00:31:22,348 --> 00:31:25,251
Thanks for your hard work.
Please have a seat.

414
00:31:33,993 --> 00:31:35,160
How's Muroga?

415
00:31:35,361 --> 00:31:36,929
He fell for it completely.

416
00:31:37,763 --> 00:31:40,666
He's taking that letter to Nobunaga.

417
00:31:40,766 --> 00:31:42,501
I see, that's good.

418
00:31:43,369 --> 00:31:44,803
Exactly as we wanted.

419
00:31:48,307 --> 00:31:52,378
What... is going on?

420
00:31:53,279 --> 00:31:57,583
It was staged so that
Muroga would steal it.

421
00:31:58,484 --> 00:31:59,351
I don't understand.

422
00:31:59,418 --> 00:32:02,955
I knew that Muroga would
take that letter to Nobunaga.

423
00:32:03,489 --> 00:32:06,625
But... is it all right for
Nobunaga to see it?

424
00:32:06,692 --> 00:32:08,727
That's what I wrote it for.

425
00:32:10,663 --> 00:32:11,597
I don't understand.

426
00:32:12,197 --> 00:32:14,466
What will Nobunaga think
when he reads that?

427
00:32:15,868 --> 00:32:19,838
This man, Sanada, is wanted all over.

428
00:32:20,706 --> 00:32:22,675
He must be a clever man.

429
00:32:24,710 --> 00:32:26,812
I'd like a taste of him, too.

430
00:32:27,613 --> 00:32:29,315
That's what Nobunaga would think.

431
00:32:31,684 --> 00:32:33,886
He's not someone I can openly talk to.

432
00:32:35,954 --> 00:32:39,224
That's why I took this strategy.

433
00:32:40,893 --> 00:32:41,760
Then...

434
00:32:43,329 --> 00:32:45,331
what about the secret
letter from the Uesugi?

435
00:32:45,397 --> 00:32:46,465
There was none.

436
00:32:49,335 --> 00:32:50,769
In that case...

437
00:32:52,438 --> 00:32:54,740
why didn't you tell me?

438
00:32:54,807 --> 00:32:56,608
You're not capable of acting.

439
00:32:57,576 --> 00:32:59,345
Before we can deceive our enemy...

440
00:33:00,412 --> 00:33:01,580
we have to deceive our own.

441
00:33:02,981 --> 00:33:04,917
Oh, that's right.

442
00:33:05,984 --> 00:33:06,852
Sasuke!

443
00:33:15,094 --> 00:33:15,961
Come in.

444
00:33:21,967 --> 00:33:23,068
Sasuke...?

445
00:33:24,203 --> 00:33:25,771
That was excellent.

446
00:33:26,638 --> 00:33:29,408
-I am honored.
-Go.

447
00:33:35,547 --> 00:33:36,515
Now...

448
00:33:38,117 --> 00:33:40,219
I can't wait to see what
Nobunaga will do.

449
00:33:41,987 --> 00:33:42,855
Sanada.

450
00:33:45,858 --> 00:33:48,594
Just as you've gambled on Nobunaga,

451
00:33:49,628 --> 00:33:51,697
I've gambled on you, Masayuki Sanada.

452
00:33:53,265 --> 00:33:55,667
The future of Shinano rests with you.

453
00:33:56,335 --> 00:33:58,370
-I have my hopes with you.
-Understood.

454
00:33:59,738 --> 00:34:01,073
Have a drink.

455
00:34:39,244 --> 00:34:40,112
Don't come.

456
00:35:16,648 --> 00:35:18,750
-Sir Shigemasa!
-Matsu!

457
00:35:18,917 --> 00:35:20,452
Sir Shigemasa!

458
00:35:21,854 --> 00:35:22,721
I'm sorry.

459
00:35:22,921 --> 00:35:24,490
I found him in the mountains.

460
00:35:24,556 --> 00:35:26,992
Where were you? What
were you doing until now?

461
00:35:27,059 --> 00:35:27,926
Matsu!

462
00:35:28,760 --> 00:35:30,462
-We don't have time.
-What?

463
00:35:30,863 --> 00:35:34,433
He's family to Nobushige Oyamada,
who brought demise to the Takeda.

464
00:35:34,566 --> 00:35:36,401
Father will not forgive him.

465
00:35:36,635 --> 00:35:37,769
I didn't know.

466
00:35:38,270 --> 00:35:39,738
Had I known, I wouldn't have gone.

467
00:35:39,972 --> 00:35:42,374
Father won't accept that excuse.

468
00:35:42,474 --> 00:35:44,610
Sakubei is looking for
a place for him to hide.

469
00:35:44,676 --> 00:35:45,744
I'll talk to Father.

470
00:35:45,811 --> 00:35:47,412
Even you can't persuade Father.

471
00:35:47,479 --> 00:35:50,082
What are we supposed to do?

472
00:35:50,148 --> 00:35:53,352
Shigemasa has to remain
missing for a while.

473
00:35:53,452 --> 00:35:55,654
-No.
-In time, we may find a solution.

474
00:35:55,754 --> 00:35:56,555
No!

475
00:36:04,763 --> 00:36:07,199
Sir Ideura, I didn't know
you were here.

476
00:36:07,332 --> 00:36:08,200
Genjiro.

477
00:36:08,467 --> 00:36:10,202
Please teach me more tricks.

478
00:36:14,006 --> 00:36:14,873
Oh, that's right.

479
00:36:16,141 --> 00:36:18,110
-Regarding Genzaburo...
-My brother?

480
00:36:18,443 --> 00:36:19,745
Lend him an ear.

481
00:36:20,779 --> 00:36:24,283
He must be having
a difficult time sleeping.

482
00:36:38,096 --> 00:36:38,964
Genjiro!

483
00:36:41,934 --> 00:36:46,371
Father may not like me very much.

484
00:36:46,438 --> 00:36:51,143
I'd like to hear you out, but can
we finish my business first?

485
00:37:00,652 --> 00:37:02,220
Why did you come back?

486
00:37:04,089 --> 00:37:05,591
I wanted to see Matsu again.

487
00:37:05,657 --> 00:37:08,427
You must've known what would
be waiting when you returned.

488
00:37:12,264 --> 00:37:13,365
Why did you tell me?

489
00:37:13,765 --> 00:37:16,835
I thought you'd be able
to talk to Father.

490
00:37:16,902 --> 00:37:18,937
-Don't take me lightly!
-Brother...

491
00:37:22,007 --> 00:37:23,208
Now that I know...

492
00:37:24,910 --> 00:37:26,912
there's only one thing I can say.

493
00:37:30,382 --> 00:37:33,118
-Commit <i>hara-kiri.</i>
-Genzaburo!

494
00:37:33,285 --> 00:37:35,454
If you can't slit your own belly...

495
00:37:42,394 --> 00:37:43,128
I will kill you.

496
00:37:43,261 --> 00:37:47,032
What good will it do to kill
Shigemasa at this point?

497
00:37:47,099 --> 00:37:50,102
-It's to draw the line!
-Shigemasa regrets what he did!

498
00:37:50,268 --> 00:37:53,972
Making atonement for life is
the true way to draw the line!

499
00:37:59,578 --> 00:38:02,481
If you're going to kill him,
then kill me, too!

500
00:38:23,201 --> 00:38:24,803
I can't make the decision on my own.

501
00:38:37,115 --> 00:38:41,153
-I will... report this to Father.
-Brother!

502
00:38:42,754 --> 00:38:47,659
But... I am tired tonight.

503
00:38:49,294 --> 00:38:50,929
I've had a lot happen.

504
00:38:53,198 --> 00:38:57,135
I'm going to have a good rest tonight,
and wake up at around noon tomorrow.

505
00:38:58,670 --> 00:39:00,472
I'll meet with Father after that.

506
00:39:24,830 --> 00:39:26,965
-It's over for me.
-What are you saying?

507
00:39:27,666 --> 00:39:30,802
-He's telling you to flee.
-Huh?

508
00:39:32,571 --> 00:39:35,373
Get ready tonight to leave the
village early tomorrow morning.

509
00:39:35,440 --> 00:39:37,309
-Where do I go, though?
-I'll arrange it.

510
00:39:37,375 --> 00:39:39,811
Genjiro, I'd like to have some privacy.

511
00:39:44,683 --> 00:39:45,550
Dear, stay.

512
00:39:50,555 --> 00:39:53,792
-I'll come for him tomorrow.
-Thank you.

513
00:39:55,727 --> 00:39:56,728
Genjiro...

514
00:39:58,096 --> 00:40:00,165
-Yes?
-I'm feeling a bit cold.

515
00:40:01,800 --> 00:40:02,667
Please bear it.

516
00:40:09,975 --> 00:40:13,578
-Shall I bring a heater?
-I would appreciate that.

517
00:40:28,894 --> 00:40:35,433
<i>Nobunaga Oda sent Masayuki Sanada</i>
<i>a letter of summon the following day.</i>

518
00:40:36,434 --> 00:40:39,137
I will be going to see Nobunaga.

519
00:40:40,772 --> 00:40:41,706
It's finally time.

520
00:40:42,507 --> 00:40:43,875
Genjiro, accompany me.

521
00:40:45,544 --> 00:40:49,781
Whether Nobunaga is a man
worth entrusting the Sanada to...

522
00:40:50,448 --> 00:40:52,050
verify it with your own eyes.

523
00:40:52,517 --> 00:40:53,385
Very well.

524
00:40:55,487 --> 00:40:56,354
Father!

525
00:40:57,689 --> 00:40:59,858
-I would like to go, too.
-No.

526
00:40:59,925 --> 00:41:01,359
Why not?!

527
00:41:02,894 --> 00:41:04,863
Why do you neglect me!?

528
00:41:04,930 --> 00:41:07,098
Stop being unreasonable.

529
00:41:07,866 --> 00:41:10,402
I'm telling you to stay back
because you are my heir.

530
00:41:10,468 --> 00:41:11,336
I refuse.

531
00:41:13,271 --> 00:41:14,973
We may not return alive.

532
00:41:15,607 --> 00:41:17,509
I'm keeping you back for
the worst case scenario.

533
00:41:18,076 --> 00:41:22,280
If anything happens to us,
you will lead the Sanada.

534
00:41:25,750 --> 00:41:26,618
Father...

535
00:41:28,887 --> 00:41:31,189
I'm leaving things to you.

536
00:41:40,098 --> 00:41:40,966
Understood.

537
00:41:51,376 --> 00:41:53,845
Brother, please hold down the fort.

538
00:41:55,080 --> 00:41:57,949
As much as I'd like to meet Nobunaga,
I am the heir.

539
00:41:58,850 --> 00:41:59,718
I'll bear it.

540
00:41:59,918 --> 00:42:03,388
I'll be your eyes and judge Nobunaga.
I'll report back to you.

541
00:42:07,959 --> 00:42:09,928
As for Shigemasa...

542
00:42:09,995 --> 00:42:11,429
We have no time for him.

543
00:42:21,072 --> 00:42:25,377
<i>Masayuki and his party head for</i>
<i>Suwa where Nobunaga awaits.</i>

544
00:42:27,746 --> 00:42:33,485
<i>Will Nobunaga accept the Sanada,</i>
<i>as Masayuki schemed?</i>

545
00:42:35,053 --> 00:42:38,823
<i>The stage for his big</i>
<i>gamble was opening.</i>

546
00:42:39,824 --> 00:42:42,994
{\an8}END OF EPISODE 3

547
00:42:43,695 --> 00:42:49,000
If you deny it and it turns out to
be a lie, you won't be forgiven.

548
00:42:49,067 --> 00:42:50,402
A new era is starting.

549
00:42:51,469 --> 00:42:54,039
Nobunaga Oda is intriguing.

550
00:42:54,372 --> 00:42:55,740
I refuse to go to Azuchi.

551
00:42:55,907 --> 00:42:57,242
Go there.

552
00:42:57,309 --> 00:42:59,077
Go with Matsu.

553
00:42:59,144 --> 00:43:01,313
What did you do?

554
00:43:01,379 --> 00:43:02,781
Tell me!

555
00:43:04,549 --> 00:43:09,020
