Ms. Kozome? Excuse me...

Oh, she's out.

Master, I explained everything to Ms. Kozome.

I told her that you are a master of a brewery and yakuza member,

obsessed with Kumoemon's art,

so much that you want to become his apprentice...

She promised to put in a word for you, but she wants you to stay with her.

It appears that men don't like to settle in this house.

Anyway, my job is done. Make sure to behave yourself.

As an apprentice, you'll have to wear a white cotton kimono, even in fall.

Isn't that hilarious?

But you can't appear on stage like this...

"Somebody had done something, and somehow..."

What are you doing there?

Watching the entrance.

And how long will you be watching?

Listen, Jun. That's enough. Go take a bath.

I can't possibly take a bath before you. You go first.

I can't go to the bath house.

I'll take a bath in the outdoor tub later.

Help me scrub my body then, will you?

All is ready.

Don't be shocked, okay?

Long time ago, I cheated on my husband, and he punished me

by giving me this tattoo.

Here too.

That's too cruel.

I was too young and foolish, but he was truly a cruel man.

Did you break it off with him?

It's still dragging on.

I feel safer now that he's in jail, but he'll go out soon.

What's the matter? Do I repulse you?

No.

So you'll stay?

I owe you for the food on my table and the roof over my head.

Thank you.

Let me get a taste of you first.

The word in the pleasure quarters

is that the male essence has a rejuvenating effect.

Who the hell are you?

You appear to be the master.

Cut off your ties with Ms. Kozome!

And who are you?

Kozome's lover?

Indeed I am.

I see... Is she of the same mind as you?

She's desperate to break it off with you!

State your conditions!

I take it upon myself to fulfill your demands!

Is that so?

Chop off a finger then.

What?!

Chop off a finger and you'll have it your way.

You must be ready to do that much.

You know the rules, right?

Anyway, forget about the rules. Do it your way.

"Somebody had done something, and somehow..."

Kozome, you're home!

What are you doing, Master?

About to see a finger being chopped off.

Did you have an accident?

This man here says we must break it off.

Forgive me.

Jun, did it hurt?

It must have hurt.

But you made a mistake.

This man here is Master Noroemon.

Call me "Toten Miyazaki, the Revolutionist"!

Master Toten is dead.

Now you're the popular reciter Noroemon.

Ms. Tomeka, who devoted her life to you,

said so the other day, crying with misery.

Do you have anything to say?

I don't.

So how did you intend to settle things hadn't I returned?

I was going to bring this man's finger to your jailed husband and negotiate.

Really?

Yes. His devotion truly moved me, so I thought it's the right thing to do.

I'd be so grateful!

I have a favor to ask, Master Ushiemon!

So I'm finally Ushiemon.

Would you recommend this man as Master Kumoemon's disciple?

I see. I thought he had a deep voice.

You made a good choice. Let's shake hands!

Good! Come to the school tomorrow.

Kumoemon is in Osaka now, but I'm as good a teacher as he is.

Good! I, Ushiemon Tochuken, will teach you!

No way! It's important who your first teacher is.

You idiot!

What's this all about?

Who are you?

The famous naniwabushi singer Ushiemon Tochuken!

Never heard of you...

So Jun became your disciple, huh?

I've heard of Kumoemon and Naramaru, but I've never heard of you.

Listen, you duffer! Send Jun home before you ruin him!

You idiot!

Who do you think picked him from the trash

and raised him into a fine young man?

I did. I, Sene Tachikawa.

And now he wants to become a naniwabushi reciter...

Just another useless street bum.

That's how he repays me for my goodness.

And that adulterer sneaks up on him...

I'm so mad, I want to stab them all.

What's so great about being a reciter?

The great professor Ryunosuke Koyokyoka

despises all naniwabushi like you.

Got it, you fool?

Hey, Jun! Come out!

I'll drag you home with a rope around the neck!

A rope won't be enough to drag him home.

But I have a great plan that might work.

What? I should lure him into my bed...

And then...

My husband Danjuro, armed with a sword, will storm in...

and threaten to take his life unless he comes home!

This...

can be set for the 5th of next month, when the mistress will be away...

and Jun will be alone in the house.

Fascinating! But unlike the lady of the house, I'm not a courtesan.

Don't get me wrong.

"Somebody had done something..."

Get a grip, Junnosuke!

It'll end up as an empty bragging.

Try harder!

If you try harder,

the words and the lyrics will flow out naturally...

"Somebody..."

I said, try harder!

I didn't say to strain your voice!

Gather all your strength...

...and put your balls to the wall!

Put your balls... to the wall...

Gather all your strength...

...and put your balls to the wall!

Yours are shrinking balls!

And yours are droopy balls!

"The blue of the sea is the blue of the sky."

"It's all the same blue."

"But if you ask me which is bluer,"

"I'd say the blue of the sea is slightly bluer."

"Dawn is breaking over the cliffs..."

You've cracked open!

Relax. I didn't mean down there.

Among reciters, it means that you've lost your voice.

You're one of us!

I love her!

Where did Kozome go?

She wants to leave you.

I'm Kyubei.

It's commendable that wish to to chop off a finger,

but finger or no finger, I'll never let Kozome go.

Kozome is home.

Ushiemon lied to us. What are we going to do?

We have no choice but to go for it.

Although it's for a good cause, I think I'll cry.

Mother! Hey, Mother!

Quiet!

Dear, could you close your eyes just for a moment?

You know I love you.

Not yet, not yet!

Disloyal bastard!

You ain't Kozome!

Oh, no! I got the wrong man!

But I enjoyed it immensely!

Damn it!

She's the one who set me up.

- There! - Where?

There, there!

- Where did he go? Huh? - There.

Over there.

Here.

Farewell, Japan!

One day I'll return as a hero!

I thought we'd hide in Kyushu, but never expected to be sent to America.

Master Ushiemon's plans are too grand. I'm worried about the future.

What do you think of "Kaiemon Tochuken"?

"Kai" is the character for "sea".

Kaiemon Tochuken! A good name! This will be my stage name!

You'll be Kozome Takonoya, "the Octopus Lady".

I don't like it.

Foreigners hate octopus. It'll protect us.

Kaiemon Tochuken and Kozome Takonoya offer a prayer

for their happy future.

Kozome, won't you pray?

SAN FRANCISCO

You need a guarantor.

Oh, so you've been conned.

Conned?

You should come to "Yokohama House".

"Yokohama House"?

Kai, dear!

"Somebody had done something..."

It's so damn hot in America.

Have you been here long?

Since I was a kid.

Were you born here?

No.

Want some?

Thanks.

I sweat even if I stand still.

What's your name?

Gun Tetsu.

A scary name.

Story tellers, magicians, harp performers and naniwabushi...

All second grade. Can't sell them.

Although there's one pretty girl.

Don't let the naniwabushi's wife and the water-trick girl get away.

Okay!

How about some gambling later?

I'll lend you money.

Have a drink!

It tastes awful. Isn't there anything better?

I heard you can't get good sake here.

It's the Prohibition Law.

Because of it, all bars have problems getting liquor.

Bourbon is pricey, and white people take away all profits.

Johnny! Bring us some sake.

Recently my boss started brewing this.

You can't afford to be picky.

Hey, hey, your sake.

It's bourbon.

He's too damn stubborn!

Who's the water-trick master?

I am!

Hey.

Please, Boss! Just not my wife!

You're the one who bet her. You lost, so you can't complain.

Master, please! Just not my wife. Not her!

"Kumoemon... Sun Wen..."

After the negro ravishes them, both men and women despair.

Men get kicked out, and women are forced to prostitute. It's hell.

Turn a card.

We spent all our money in just a week.

Tell me... What will you do if I become a prostitute?

"A Scandinavian housemaid, a white Russian dishwasher..."

"...and a Japanese laborer..."

Don't even joke about becoming a prostitute. You have me.

Thank you. You know how embarrassed I am of my tattoo.

If it wasn't for it, I wouldn't mind selling my body.

"Do you know why you're poor?"

"Let me tell you then."

"The king, rich men, and land owners suck the people's blood like parasites."

"A man named Virtue, a man named Labor, and a man named Austerity."

1905?

Many poor people have lived here.

We'll make a breakthrough.

6,000 Japanese immigrants live here. I see no reason we won't succeed.

Grab me!

I don't want to. We just...

Just grab me!

"Gather all your strength..."

"...and put your balls to the wall."

200 dollars.

200 dollars.

200.

Open.

200 dollars.

200 dollars.

200. Open.

How about 1,000 dollars?

My seal.

1,000 dollars.

1,000 dollars.

Stop the game! Let me in!

Get lost!

I'll take her place. Let's play for my body.

You idiot! Your body isn't worth a hairpin.

Damn swindler!

This is my game! Leave me alone!

He's a dirty swindler! Don't you get it?

You're embarrassing me! Be quiet!

Damn it!

Kozome!

Please.

Open.

Bad luck, sister.

It got so cold, all of a sudden.

She said she was just going to the bathroom...

Master Ushiemon, the sword you gave me will draw blood today!

What is it?

I won't let you take my wife over a card game! Don't move!

She got sick and tired of you. Don't you get it, boy?

What is it? Are you going to kill me?

Prepare yourself! I'm ready to meet death!

I'm tired of your performances!

What's the big deal? I'll just move from this room into that one.

You fool!

I know how you feel.

When the woman one loves jilts him, a man loses his dignity.

Shut up! Get lost!

Throw him out!

Keep your hands off my tools of trade. I won't make trouble for you.

I think it's in your interest to be nice to me.

What do you mean?

Listen!

Have you seen workers starving for a woman?

You're free now, but wait for winter.

The parlor will get crowded with sweaty dirty workmen back from Cheyenne.

The place will stink like a pigsty.

Even the toughest wenches faint

when they hear the horrendous cries of the countless men.

These men will jump you all at once.

Some wenches don't survive.

Is that what you want?

Men are such animals.

Let me have you, just once.

What will happen with my Kai?

He's going to Cheyenne.

I'll send him with the new immigrants to build railroads, or to the mines.

You must be kidding. He isn't made for heavy work.

He's an artist.

Here, your body is your weapon.

You know what I mean?

Use your body to convince me.

I won't hurt you. Let me have a go.

Don't monkey with me!

Johnny!

You betrayed me!

I overestimated you.

Damn! Kozome...

I thought you'd cut 2-3 men, but you just stroke at the air.

I beg you to lend me 1,500 dollars!

Until when?

I don't know. But I promise to pay you back.

You wanna be my underling?

I don't want to join the yakuza. Let's duel.

No, thanks.

Good luck.

What's good...

...luck?

"This happened in the tenth year of the Tensho Period..."

"in May, the month of capricious spring showers of sunshine and rain."

"On the fifth day, in the hour of the Dragon,"

"fragrant winds blew across the shores of Biwa."

"Lord Nobunaga was in the castle..."

"of Akechi Mitsuhide of the Koreto clan..."

What is he whining about?

He's probably reciting naniwabushi.

What a fool.

I thought we were going to duel.

Idiot! I'll never do anything to soil

the name of the Tochuken school!

Shabby and abject as I am, I still appeal

to the goodness in people's souls.

I'll show you that my art can blossom even in America.

If you want to make a living as an artist, see for yourself.

The best minstrels and Dixie bands perform here.

No miso soup and rice?

There's no sake.

Listen well. This is America.

There's no audience for your boring naniwabushi.

I'll be blunt. Your recitals make people's skin crawl.

Give up.

What?

Your veins pop, you squeal like a crushed frog.

What's so good about it?

How dare you!

You replaced it?

Sit down.

A dirty trick!

Who's Kachu?

Kaishu Katsu.

What are you saying?

"American Indians are not the heart of Cheyenne."

"The rising sun casts its light over it, and deities fill it's bounds."

"Look at the child's butt, and you will see a clear bluish..."

"...a clear bluish mark.

"A Mongolian tribe..."

"Look at the poor Indian."

"In the mornings they roam the dark forests."

"In the evenings they chase herds of buffalos."

"The beacon fires of the hunter tribes flicker along..."

Insolent fool!

Hey, Master! Is that sword real?

May I borrow it for a while if it's real?

What will you do with it?

I'll seek revenge at the gambling parlor.

The swindler cheated me.

Don't cry over spilt milk.

Be grateful that you had a woman there.

Oh no! Don't remind me or I'll wet myself.

She was a real goddess.

I wonder why was it so dark in the room, although it was noon.

She threatened to kill me if I lifted the curtains.

Kozome, right?

Yeah, right...

How much longer will you keep us waiting?

I can't stand it anymore.

That was pee. You served me pee.

The house special: pee sake and poo salad. Discount for you.

Stand back! Don't touch her! She's my wife!

What are you doing?

If you want the girl, you must pay for her.

Idiots! Where have you been mooching about?

How come a crowd of crazed idiots broke into the parlor?

I can't leave this unpunished. Got it?

And you call yourselves bouncers.

You remember our deal, right? Well?

I'll pay for everything:

the broken glasses and tables, and the stolen liquor.

Don't forget, okay?

It ain't easy being a bouncer. How will we fix this?

Who did it?

The Chinese guy and the vagrant.

Who is pulling their strings?

We'll settle the accounts soon.

Hey!

Who's in charge?

One-cent savings! Hey, hey, hey!

Who are you?

I'm John Doe!

Okay.

You mustn't come again! Got it?

I'll be back!

Get out!

Get out!

FRANK CAPONE'S OFFICE

Kaiemon, Kaiemon, the boss wants to see you.

Come immediately.

Kaiemon, I'll take over today.

No way! It was my idea!

Shut up!

I decide things here.

Everyone, let's go!

You should come too.

One-cent savings! Hey, hey, hey!

Where's the manager?

Kozome...

Kozome, a customer.

Undress there.

Put the clothes down neatly or you won't find them when you leave.

I'll keep the room dark until you leave.

Don't laugh! It'll fly out if you laugh.

See, it flew out!

Hurry and show me your face.

Kozome!

You scum!

"The peaks of Hira and Hieizan mounts,"

"and the distant mountains of Osaka"

"float in a sea of pale purple mist."

"This happened in the tenth year of the Tensho Period..."

"in May, the month of capricious spring showers of sunshine and rain."

"On the fifth day, in the hour of the Dragon,"

"fragrant winds blew across the shores of Biwa."

"Lord Nobunaga was in the castle..."

"of Akechi Mitsuhide of the Koreto clan..."

"Choking with gratitude, Mitsuhide..."

"went into the garden, so lovingly tended,"

"and picked a tender orchid..."

No, no! You soil the naniwabushi art!

A terrible thing has happened.

Because of your one-cent savings,

Chinatown thought we've declared war.

Look at the paper!

What does it say?

I can't read, but apparently the Japanese Society must pay compensation.

Look here! 50,000 dollars for damages.

The big boss, Yoshida, got killed. It's all because of you.

This got the boss worried and he sent me to tell you to hide at Lillian's.

But the cloud has a silver lining.

Gun Tetsu got promoted to number one!

He's the big boss now!

And the parlor?

Yeah, he got the parlor too!

Kozome?

She's okay. Go see her when the time is right.

Where are you going?

You know very well.

You come from a brewer's family, right?

You know how to make liquor?

That idiot Frank cut our whisky supply.

We need a brewer.

Will you try brewing some at Lillian's?

Tora-a-a!

Dear!

Kaiemon!

It's me, Kozome.

I'm beautiful, ain't I?

Say that I'm beautiful.

You're beautiful.

More.

Beautiful.

More.

Beautiful. You're beautiful.

We can finally live together! Now I'm running the brothel.

No! No violence! Do it nicely.

I feel as if I'm floating in a starry sky.

It's still broad daylight.

Why do you spoil the mood?

Kiss me.

I'll be nice.

He's kissing like an American.

Kaiemon, we're putting the parlor in danger.

Are you saying my husband can't live here?

I'm not happy at all!

Better let your love blossom slowly, than waste its petals overnight.

Very smart.

So where will you hide him?

He won't be hidden if I tell you, will he?

Hey, the wenches are here!

You look very imposing.

Like a tough proprietress of a brothel.

And I thought I was left without a customer.

Did you bring it?

I did.

I've sunk to a proprietress of a floating brothel.

I wonder what Master Ushiemon would say.

That's why today we'll perform Master Ushiemon's "Cheyenne Tragedy."

Okay.

"Look at the poor Indian"!

"American Indians..."

"...are not the heart of Cheyenne."

"The rising sun casts its light over it..."

"In the mornings they roam the dark forests."

"In the evenings they chase herds of buffalos."

"The beacon fires of the hunter tribes..."

Stop the engine.

Go back.

What? They can hear us. Should we shut them up?

We're going back.

But your authority...

Shut up!

What's so funny?

Yup.

Black-haired women are passionate, redheads are wild, blondes are soft.

I've heard most mafia wives are blond.

"The horn unleashes the attack, and 300 riders stand up in the stirrups."

"They face the 'brave' Colorado army, a gang of rogues and rascals."

"Brandishing pistols above their heads, they scream like devils and attack."

"Alas! It's pandemonium. No time to pull an arrow."

"Roaring flames swallow the Indian camp, as they..."

"run left and right. Run, run, run..."

"Run, run, run, run, run..."

What's the matter?

The rest was stained with soy sauce.

Ask Master Ushiemon to send you another copy.

That won't be necessary. It's just 2-3 lines.

- I'll make up something. - I see.

- Kozome! - Yes?

Who's the top politician in America?

That'd be the President. The head of state.

I see. The President, huh?

I must perform before him!

Our teacher, the great Master Kumoemon

once performed before the Meiji Emperor.

That led to the Great Revolution in naniwabushi.

Alright! I'll perform before the President!

Have you lost your mind?

Why?

It's not so easy to meet him.

Women don't get these things! This is men's business.

Get off the high horse!

This is America, the land of gender equality.

The land of the Statue of Liberty.

What are you acting big about?

You fake American!

Watch your mouth!

It's Kozome!

Are there more?

More girls whose services you use?

The daughter of the beggars' boss?

Enough!

The daughter of the crematorium owner?

How shrewd of you!

He spent last night drinking with Lillian.

Damn you!

"Greetings to everyone here."

"Kaiemon Tochuken at your services."

"I'm a beginner, and I may not sing in a pleasant manner."

"I was born and raised in Edo."

"However, I will do my best to sing this song, Kawachi Ondo."

"I'll sing my story to the rhythm of Kawachi Ondo, an ancient folk song."

Make him shut up!

It's too late.

"This wonderful music..."

"...has crossed the vast ocean, coming to America all the way from Japan."

"Let's sing! Let's dance!"

"I want to sing for the ladies in the audience tonight."

"If you're looking for an easy way through life..."

"...find yourself an actor for a husband."

"In the ivory tower of the stage art,"

"each day is a kaleidoscope of happenings."

"Even if you get stabbed and killed, you'll rise back to life in no time."

"The girl at the bakery calls me in."

"Try my cake,' she says."

"I know a bite of her jelly roll"

"will make me oh so happy!"

"This is good! This is wonderful!"

Hey Kozome! These are all my women!

Is Kondo still missing?

He was seen getting on a cargo ship bound for Japan.

He didn't feel like staying.

He thought he'd take over after Yoshida got killed.

What did Frank say?

He's declaring us war.

Let's waste him!

Boss, will you take me to Chicago?

I want to see the boxing title match.

You've become a real American. Is Kaiemon coming too?

That'd be too much of an imposition.

And he's not getting accustomed so well.

We'll waste both Frisco and Chicago.

Al Capone?

Let's start with Chicago.

That's too dangerous.

If I die, I'll take Al with me.

Do you know why I'm here?

I know you're trying to crush the Japanese here,

but as long as my eyes are opened, I won't let you.

Then maybe I should help you

close those eyes of yours.

Today is Friday the 13th.

CHICAGO

I'll take a walk till you finish your business.

I know I don't have to worry about you.

Who's Alfonso?

I don't like the sound of the name.

Bye.

AL CAPONE'S OFFICE

Do you want to die?

What can I do? I've came this far.

Then I'll go with you.

This is no place for a woman.

Who'll see you off then? You have no one but me.

Thank you. But I'll be a laughing-stock if I go with a woman.

Gun Tetsu!

My English is terrible.

Tell the President here that I want to perform for him.

President? You've mixed day with night.

He's the President of the Night.

Kozome, did you bring the shamisen?

What are you doing here?

Have you lost your mind?

What about naniwabushi? What did you tell him?

How can you make a living if you're dodging bullets?

Let me introduce myself - Kozome, "the Octopus Lady."

Enough with the bullshit! Will you pull out of the West Coast or not?

Stop messing with us, you fool!

Have your ears taken a break?

"This is happening now..."

"The time is May, the rainy season."

Enough!

I said, enough!

Alright! Go for it!

Ladies and gentlemen, welcome to "Capone Cries a Lot"!

The President of the Night Al Capone,

who'd scare even a crying child into silence,

listened to my naniwabushi and cried like a baby, shouting "Bravo! Wonderful!"

I reckon this is the big revolution in naniwabushi!

Alright, everybody!

Let the show begin!

Transfer of damage?

To the hospital!

No hospital.

I don't want people to see my tattoo.

Don't embarrass me, please...

It feels like I'm floating in a starry sky...

You've become light as a feather.

Kozome!

Kozome!

Kozome!

Leave her alone!

Don't!

You mustn't remove the powder!

Don't you dare!

Of course. Nice and amusing.

The shamisen sound pierces my heart.

Get up! A foreigner can't play it! It's cat skin! It's spooky.

Shamisen.

CHEYENNE TRAGEDY

Lillian!

I'll sell this house.

I'm broke. No money.

That loan shark Tommy has cornered me.

I don't want to beg Gun Tetsu. He's short on money, too.

"Under dark skies..."

"and reeking winds, these men..."

"follow in the steps of the Sengoku samurai."

"They sleep with their swords,"

"and gamble their lives, battling over each other's turf."

"They fight with desperate courage

"and have no regret when death comes upon them."

"The fleeting emptiness..."

"...of yakuza life."

"Ano Toku broke into the territory of his mate Nagakichi."

"But Nagakichi couldn't forsake his duty

even for the brother of his beloved wife."

"Kei..."

TOCHUKEN

This is a recording of Japan's best

naniwabushi performer Kumoemon Tochuken.

"Somebody had done something..."

Kaiemon!

I came to thank you.

Kozome kept sending us money.

I was looking forward to seeing you.

I'm so sorry about Kozome.

Junnosuke, did you forget the naniwabushi spirit?!

"Gather all your strength..."

"...and put your balls to the wall!"

Straighten up!

Why don't you perform some naniwabushi?

No way. I thought you were allergic to it.

I'll suffer quietly.

I won't play before yakuza.

When will you become like Al?

I may play for you then.

You fool!

It's pulling.

It must be another blowfish.

Don't try too hard.

Have you forgotten me? I'm the naniwabushi performer.

Kozome? She's dead.

She's right there.

Floating in the air and enjoying it.

Thank you.

But in Japan, it's customary

to offer condolence money gifts.

Give me money!

This is different!

Is that his sign?

That's not Gun Tetsu's sign.

The contract is void. That's female genitals.

Mr. Capone, we Japanese cry over others' misfortune.

You offered Kozome a red rose.

And you didn't forget my naniwabushi. Thank you!

This is a present for you: cigarettes beloved by Japanese geisha girls.

You are the best American mafia boss! I'll pass your message to Gun Tetsu!

The Japanese is here!

My Utamaro!

Today I'm Kaiemon Tochuken!

If I die, you'll get insurance. Pay back your debts and enjoy life.

Thank you, Lillian.

I had a good life with you.

My fate is near its end.

Mock me if you want, slander me if you can...

This is the way of all living beings.

Men, get ready to go into battle!

"This is happening now..."

"The time is May, the rainy season."

No, Kaiemon! Come back!

Don't come near me! Go back!
