The rising new star of this island

Everyone's chiming in to just say

Now, get on your feet, dauntlessly

Once you grab the microphone, naturally

We're going to go wild, so check it out

For tonight, the very best dinner

Words going beyond even the color of skin

This universal vibration

Yeah, come on!

Yeah, come on!

Before the time comes when there's no turning back

Let's turn things in a positive direction

If you don't take action, you won't get anywhere

Never gonna stop, never gonna stop

You were not in pain, you were not in pain

Because we fall in love, there's sadness

Never gonna stop, never gonna stop

The feeling of love is happiness

You were not in pain, you were not in pain

Because we fall in love, there's sadness

Yeah, come on!

You gonna feel so

Yeah, come on!

This is awful! Someone!

Fire!

Someone call the fire brigade!

Would you like some water?

Here you go.

What a terrible commotion. Was it a fire?

Yesterday, there was a fire and someone was killed.

It's been just awful.

Killed?

A street murder.

A night buckwheat noodle vendor was cut down.

And there was a fire in Gion just the other day too.

Man, why do I have to do something like this?

Here, eat.

Hey, stop!

You bastard!

I finished feeding them.

You stink. Go wash your face!

Where's your response?!

Yes, sir!

Your work's not done yet.

Understood, sir!

That's some tough work.

Looks like Toshi's being pretty hard on him.

No, this is fine. He's the new guy, after all.

This kind of work is to be expected.

I didn't...

I didn't join up to do things like this!

Hello, there!

Hey, little one, come to spar?

Whoops! You're an impatient one.

Now, hold on a second!

You can't spar with a wooden sword against a spear.

Whoa!

Damn it!

That's right, keep your arms in!

Step in quickly!

You've got a pretty good knack for this!

You could become strong if you practice!

Face!

Ow!

That doesn't mean you can leave yourself open.

Yo! Sano! Shinpachi!

Same as ever, I see.

Yo, Heisuke!

When did you get back?

We missed having our third joker around.

Who are you calling a joker?

By the way, I heard Mr. Hijikata took on a page?

How cute is he?

Thing is, I hadn't seen anyone that fits the description,

so I've been looking for him.

But I'll bet he's a real pretty boy!

Restraining my imagination, sort of like this.

Mr. Hijikata wouldn't go for anyone less than beautiful, even if he was solicited!

He unilaterally assigned the boy to be his page!

Not a word of complaint, even though the boy's bad at making tea!

To top it off, if he let the boy in because he's like Souji, well then...

Heisuke!

I'm sorry, but blow your nose and forget about that image right away.

I don't follow.

I get it! He's good in bed!

You're free to yell whatever you like,

but if Mr. Hijikata heard that, he'd kill you.

The correct answer is over here!

This is the much-rumored no-good page, Tetsunosuke Ichimura.

He's cute! He's real cute!

WHAT?!

Wow! This head and these short limbs!

The spitting image of a puppy!

Who're you calling a puppy?!

He's still so small, even when he struggles!

But did Mr. Hijikata's tastes run along these lines?

Don't fan the flames.

Oh, sorry.

Ichimura, was it? I guess I haven't introduced myself yet.

I'm Heisuke Toudou.

I'm an old-timer here from back when we were at Shiei Hall.

And I technically serve directly under the Vice Commander.

Oh, but I'm young.

I'm a complete nut when it comes to cute things,

but I'm pretty good with a sword.

Nice to meet you!

Sure, nice to meet you too.

Mr. Kondo, the trio of jokers are all here for once.

Ah, so Toudou's back.

What happened to Yamanami?

He's apparently staying in Shimabara today.

Saying he wanted to see Akesato, since it's been so long.

That's not it.

It's an excuse for him to delay seeing me again, even by one day.

You're still saying that, Toshi?

But it's too bad.

I want to tell Mr. Yamanami about Tetsu too.

He likes children, so I'm sure he'll welcome Tetsu.

Unlike someone else...

Excuse me.

Ah, Yamazaki, what is it?

Has the Choshu Clan made some kind of move?

No, it's a report concerning a matter the Vice Commander is investigating.

Details of the fires that have been occurring these past few months.

There have been thirty-four fires up to April of this year,

of which twenty-one have been vacant houses.

And in the dead of night when there aren't even lanterns lit.

No doubt about it. Toshimaro Yoshida is here.

Yoshida?!

A disciple of Shoin Yoshida, who was executed in the Ansei Purge.

In the Choshu Clan, along with Shinsaku Takasugi,

he's said to be one of Shoin's three brightest students.

He's big.

Then, the man behind these arsons is most likely Yoshida.

Exactly.

The crazy pyromaniac bastard!

I am very sorry.

The men who carried out the mission the other day blundered.

I do not care.

One or two more corpses will not make much of a difference.

Yes, sir.

So, to what tasks shall I assign those who have newly arrived in Kyoto?

Have them go sightseeing or something.

Sir?

Meaning, learn their way around so as not to get eaten by the Wolves of Mibu.

Here you are.

Ah, thank you.

I have my shop to tend to, so please excuse me.

Master, how much longer must we sit still in this place?!

I have already waited for a considerable amount of time,

ever since I started to follow you!

When will the hunt begin?!

Do not be impatient, Suzu. The prey is not going anywhere.

We can take our time hunting, burning, and slowly smoking them out.

Tell me what you've been doing.

I was sparring, sir.

Who told you to go to the training hall?!

Why do I have to do things like this?!

It seems you still don't understand the position you're in.

As punishment, copy the Strictures of the Shinsengumi 100 times over!

Damn it! I'll quit being his page!

Hey! Hurry, hurry!

Mr. Okita is?!

It's your loss if you miss this!

What the...

A Choshu spy or something?

Why are they drawing swords at headquarters?

No, more importantly...

This bloodlust...

Mr. Okita isn't showing a single opening!

He's good.

Vice Commander!

I haven't felt this in a long time.

It's refreshing, if it's just every so often.

What are you saying?

White.

If you'd at least switch to a red loincloth or something,

perhaps you would seem a little more manly?

What about you, Hajime?

With that black, it's practically a funeral.

Tetchan, didn't you know?

No, I didn't. I haven't seen that guy around until now.

Hajime Saito, Third Unit Captain.

He's always been around. It's just that you didn't notice.

Can't be helped. That Hajime doesn't really stand out usually.

No matter where he is, he's always just kind of there in the crowd.

But he's good!

If he and Mr. Okita went at it, they'd probably both end up dead.

Excellent insight.

Hajime's right up there with Okita when it comes to his swordsmanship.

Here, of course, even among the assassins against the Shogunate,

about the only ones who could win against him one-on-one

are guys who wouldn't die even when they've been stabbed through the heart.

But you know, he's got no motivation at all.

And there's THAT.

Yeah, THAT.

If he's that good, hurry up and introduce me to him sooner.

Oh-ho, so the Vice Commander's page

has been granted authority to demand such things?

When did you...

I can see a dark shadow behind you.

Mightn't you be troubled by that shadow?

Now...

I have some business to take care of, so pardon me.

Wait!

Speak with respect to your superiors!

Yes, sir!

Incidentally, might you be hungry?

I want some buckwheat noodles.

About what we were talking about earlier...

Thank you for the food.

Mr. Saito!

An assassination took place here.

The time was one year ago.

Here too.

A murder in the name of heavenly punishment.

His age was eighteen.

His name was Matsugoro Hayashi.

He was framed for a crime he did not commit by a close friend

and came to Kyoto, abandoning his homeland.

However, being a ronin, he found no place to call home,

so he apparently lost all hope in the world and committed suicide in this vacant house.

You can see?

Indeed!

I can hear the voices of beings not of this world and sense their thoughts.

At times, I can even speak with them.

However, I cannot converse with your shadow.

I do not know who it is, but it means that he is still alive.

Leaving the grounds without permission, dereliction of duty,

fleeing from punishment...

Brat, do you remember the Strictures of the Shinsengumi?

You don't mean seppuku?

I can't very well demand that, but...

No dinner tonight! You will stand guard all night!

Yes, sir.

Mr. Hijikata sure was mad.

Oh? Mr. Saito?

Now, with this night's game, how many will we have played?

It has already exceeded a thousand, my lord.

Behold! The exclusionists have won the capital this night.

I am most awed and humbled, my lord.

Then I shall show you an interesting plot.

My shiki are already keeping a keen eye on their movements,

but my lord, please watch at your leisure from where you are now.

It is a matter that no longer concerns me.

With Saneakira no longer of this world,

whether the capital burns or falls to ruin...

Yes, gazing upon the land falling to ruin will surely be most amusing.

The exclusionist loyalists and the Wolves of Mibu may both wreak havoc.

The barbarians may trample this divine land as well.

I shall see this land's demise with you.

Who's there?

The malice is still in the air.

Of evil spirits, or of man?

Well, well, a member of the Shinsengumi.

A tasty morsel has found its way into the trap.

This late at night?

I make a rule of not crossing swords with the possessed.

Mr. Saito?

So, you're the one!

A good moon, is it not? We shall meet again.

Damn, he got away.

Tetsunosuke, I appreciate that you came to my aid,

but have you not forgotten something important?

Shoot! I'm supposed to stand guard!

As you can see, there is not a scratch on me.

Put your worries to rest and go back.

Mr. Saito, excuse me!

What the heck was that?

Tetsu?

Tetsunosuke?

Tetsunosuke?

Are you sure you should be sleeping so soundly out here, little page?

Shoot!

I am very sorry!

You thought you'd be forgiven if you apologized?

What do you take me for?

If you want to go off and amuse yourself whenever you want,

there's no need for you to be here.

Get out of here right now!

Oh, come on, Toshi.

Now, now, Tetsunosuke only joined up recently after all.

And he is showing remorse,

so I'll make sure to have a good talk with him later.

I...

That's easy for you to say, but...

Fear not. There are some kind men in the Shinsengumi as well.

You are a man with many adversities.
