EPISODE 39: YEARS

Ten years had passed
after being banished to Kudoyama.

Masayuki's wish
to return to Ueda was futile,

and he died at the age of 64.

KUDOYAMA - SANADA MANSION

How mortified he must've been.

Brother.

Father left this.

The knowledge he gained from battles...

and how to win are all written in here.

This is as precious as
The Art of War by Sun Tzu.

Please take a look at it.

An ordinary person
wouldn't understand it.

That's like Father.

-Are they all like this?
-Yes, they are.

Father has passed away.

I'll work on having you pardoned soon.

I appreciate the thought.

After staying so long,

I'm content with the life I'm living.

You're trying to be considerate.

Is that it?

No.

Do you all feel the same way?

I can spend a lot of time with my husband,

so I'm grateful to be here.

I've been teaching
the village women how to sew,

so life is quite fulfilling.

These are the mushrooms
I found in the forest.

Ume and Daisuke
don't know other lifestyles.

We don't have to return to Ueda.

But, to spend the rest of your life here.

How do you feel, Daisuke?

Don't you want to go
to Shinano, Kyoto, or Osaka?

We are managing fine here.

You don't have to worry.

How is Naiki?

After Father died,
he tried to slit his belly.

Don't interfere!

Naiki, stop!

Naiki!

He's been with Father
before we were born.

Don't worry.
He'll regain his energy soon enough.

Brother, aren't you having
a rough time?

You have to manage
your domain as a daimyo.

We're building new moats
to draw water to the paddies.

We're plowing fields
to expand the farmland.

There's an endless list of things to do.

You have no time to rest.

Perhaps I'm suited
for such conservative work.

Just think of it as
you're both in the appropriate places.

Are your children doing well?

Yes. They are showing promise.

Isn't Daisuke too quiet?

I don't quite know
what childrearing involves.

You had Father as a role model.

I was neglected.

What are you talking about?

Father adored you.

Father loved you.

When I was a child,
he always scolded me.

That's because he loved you.

When I became an adult,
he always called me boring.

Whenever there was a crisis,
I was kept outside the loop.

He wanted to keep you safe.

I was envious of you.

That's how I felt about you.

To my eyes,

the old lord loved both of you.

The old lord raised both of you
in his own way.

And you both finely matured.

But I wouldn't know if he
was a good father or not.

Refrain.

Pardon me.

Everyone has his own ideas
about childrearing.

You just have to find
your own method.

Brother, I have a request.

What is it?

I said we are comfortable with life here,

but that's a lie.

We have accumulated debts.

Life is pretty harsh.

Am I not sending enough?

Don't you get money
from the Asano clan?

Actually, when Father was alive...

we lived beyond our means
so he wouldn't feel miserable.

Is that right?

It's caught up to us.

Kiri is using the skills she acquired
as Lady Nei's maid,

and teaches sewing.

Sasuke is teaching
light ninja techniques for an allowance.

But it's like pouring water on hot stone.

All right. I'll do something.

I'm sorry to ask you for help.

I won't let you go hungry any longer.

Will you stay a few days?

I'm leaving tomorrow morning.

I must rush over to Kyoto.

Sanjuro found someone
who can mediate with Lady Kodai'in.

Please forget about that.

I want to do it.

I don't know when it'll be,

but I want all of us
to live together again.

I feel bad that you've come many times.

Lady Kodai'in has renounced the world.

She rarely meets with anyone.

I see.

I wasn't of any help
after you've come a long way.

Please forgive me.

Actually, that isn't
the only reason why I visit.

When I spend time with you,

I feel very relaxed.

I can imagine.
That's what they all tell me.

Can I come again?

Men have stress inside
and outside the home.

Please come anytime,

if it relaxes you to be with me.

I appreciate it.

Do you compose poems?

I have not learned it.

I'll teach you poetry next time.

I'm looking forward to it.

Daisuke will soon have
his rite of manhood.

Please be his guardian.

You want me to do it?

I can't do anything fatherly.

Please raise him into a fine man.

I am honored, but...

I'm not fit for it.

You are the person for it.

Please.

The old lord often said...

on the face of this board...

lies all aspects of battle.

Take that to heart.

If you had to describe the game of go,

the board is the land.

The stones are pegs.

If it gets surrounded by the opponent,

it'll be taken just as in battle.

EDO

Ieyasu had the daimyos' families
live in Edo.

He had the daimyos
go back and forth to their provinces.

This was the origin
of the alternate-year residence.

We are basically hostages.

We couldn't avoid that fate.

But it's comfortable in Edo.

It's not a matter of it
being comfortable or not.

It's a matter of the heart.

The facial paper here is too hard.

Kyoto has the best, after all.

I agree.

What's going to happen from now?

Will the Tokugawa rule?

There hasn't been any major battles
after Sekigahara.

It'll probably end up that way.

All will be well
if you leave it to Tokugawa.

He'll turn the country
into a good place to live.

Shigemasa, the next time
Genzaburo goes to Kyoto,

have him buy facial paper.

Most certainly.

More than the country's state of affairs,

Mother is concerned about her facial oil.

Of course.

Miss Sue is here.

Sue!

Say your greetings.

It's been a long time.

I had promised to show Sue my fans.

Sue, I'm going.

-Uncle.
-Stay.

No... I shouldn't.

Come.

These were all given to me
when I was in Kyoto,

by nobles I was close to.

Grandmother, I heard
your father was a very high noble.

His name is Kikutei Harusue.

Kikutei?

He was the Minister of the Right.

I wasn't aware of that!

This fan is from
Sir Madenokoji Sukemaro.

In her younger days,

she was wooed by the nobles.

When she married Father in Chiisagata,

she was shocked to see how rustic it was.

The Lord was handsome.

He was very gallant.

I can visualize it.

Sue.

You have noble blood in you.

-Don't forget that.
-I won't.

This is from His Majesty Yorimori.

Sanada Masayuki's wife, Kaoru,

died two years after her husband in Edo.

THREE YEARS LATER

AUTUMN 1614

DAISUKE

I lose.

I won!

You're terrible at it.

Miss Oume, please.

UME

First, you wind the thread
around the needle.

Then pull it and stop.

Then pierce from the back.
Then down again in front.

Up from the back, then
down from the front.

It's repetitive.

Now, give it a try.

Come on!

Next!

Next!

Next, with more speed.

Yes!

Let's do it again.

I found a spring in the mountain in back.
The garden won't wilt now.

Your brother is a 95,000 koku daimyo lord.

While you sweat it out
over a small vegetable garden.

What a big difference.

We live within our means.

-It's not done right.
-Hold there!

-Do you know what to do?
-Yes, I do.

Do it yourself!

I got wet.

Sir Daihachi.

DAIHACHI

That's Kiri.

This is quite difficult.

You received a package
from your brother.

Buckwheat flour again.

What are his intentions?

He promised me he would
not make us go hungry.

This isn't what I meant.

Daisuke and Daihachi
are only eating buckwheat dough daily.

They're still growing boys,
so I'm worried.

If you don't mind.

Thank you.

What is Sir Genjiro thinking?

Does he plan to live out
his life here?

He's not that old.

What a shame when he's still young.

If he'll get serious, I'll do it.

I'll follow him all the way.

When I watch him, I get irritated.

He mustn't lose to his brother!

Just between you and me.

His brother is earnest but very boring.

I know he tries hard,
but he's not interesting.

I get tired of him
before I can count to three.

I want Sir Genjiro
to see the light of day again.

He shouldn't end his life here.

His boring brother
is having a good life now.

Sasuke.

Yes, sir.

-I'm going to the village to sell.
-Sell?

I'm going to sell buckwheat flour
for money.

The buckwheat dough is ready.

That's an awful lot.

I'll have them taste it,
so I can sell it on the spot.

Shinshu specialty.

I'm sure the novelty will get to them.

Come with me.

Will it really sell?

Please sell a lot.

Buckwheat from Shinshu!

Try it and you'll love it.

How about Shinshu's specialty buckwheat?

Everyone, come!

It's simple to make.

Just add water to the flour and boil.

These are the cooked buckwheat dough.

Have a bite.

Just take our word for it.

Try the buckwheat dough.

What would cost 20-mon
in Kyoto and Osaka,

we'll sell it to you for 10-mon,

since you've been good to us
until now.

I win.

I thought we'd sell more.

Buckwheat dough is an acquired taste.

Once you get used to it, it's delicious.

Maybe we should cut it thinner.

If it's an acquired taste,
I guess it doesn't matter.

Thinly sliced buckwheat dough,

which is what we see today,

didn't take root nationwide
until further down the road.

Welcome home.

Selling is difficult.

The buckwheat dough I made
must've not been good.

That's not it.

I didn't take you along

because I didn't want you
to do any selling.

But it's okay for Kiri?

What about Kiri?

Didn't I tell you before?

That I don't care about Kiri.

All right.

I'll dismiss her.

It'll look like I kicked her out.

Never mind.

I'm sorry.

-What a troublesome person.
-Don't say that.

What is she worried about?

We may've been married for a long time,

but it'll never be longer
than our relationship.

She must've realized that.

-That's expected.
-Don't say anymore.

If you want me to leave, I will.

No... I didn't mean that.

I'm not going to be
devoted to you for life.

Is that right?

After three children, I gave up.

It's a bit sad when you say it
so point blank.

I'm only here for my father

and because you want me to be here.

You must have things
about which you can't consult with Haru.

I wanted to be of help
to you at those times.

It's a saintly feeling.

What should I do?

I don't know.
Please talk it over with Haru.

-What?
-I'll leave it up to you two.

Are you running away?

Why aren't you playing go
with Sir Daisuke?

I won again.

Why don't you go easy on him?

Men are always serious
in their challenges.

I feel sorry for Sir Daisuke.

Is this the Sanada mansion?

Toyotomi Hidetsugu's daughter, Taka,

had gone to Luzon
under Nobushige's arrangement.

Good afternoon.

I'm glad you're doing well.

When I returned to Japan,

the person that
I wanted to see most was you.

I searched all over for you.

I don't know her.
What is your relationship to her?

I am his concubine.

Only in formality.

Sir Hidetsugu's family
and relatives were all executed.

To save her life,
I made her my concubine.

But I am still your concubine.

Hey... stop it!

Wait a minute.

You weren't like that before.

I was abroad a long time.

A lot has happened to me.

What do you do now?

I was trained by Sukeza.

I have a trading business
with Luzon as my base.

I forgot about the
souvenirs I brought.

You can take anything you want.

Wow!

How pretty!

That's coral from Kunlun.
I'll make it cheap.

Are you charging us?

I run a business.

What is this?

You have a good eye.

It's an incense burner from Siam.

You've been to Siam?

Merchants from all over come to Luzon.

That's a strap from Nepal.

I'll give that to you.

Nepal?

Where is that?

Where is it?

In northern India, I think.

It's called Sanar and is very strong.

The reason is...

because it's not elastic.

Sanar-himo strap.

Don't add the "himo."
Sanar means himo (strap).

Sanar-himo would translate
to strap-strap.

Will you look at this?

The threads are woven tightly
vertically and horizontally.

Doesn't it remind you of something?

I don't know.

The pongee in Ueda were
woven the same way.

Come to think of it, yes.

I have an idea.

What?

I love you.

I love you very much.

I want you to knit a strap.

Strap?

Use this as a sample.

It's actually a weave, not a knit.

Like the pongee.

I see.

Haru, help her.

-But...
-Just do it.

Does Taka plan to stay here long?

I don't know.

Your weaving is rough.

I'm sorry.

Do the job carefully.

I'm thinking of leaving.

Did my husband tell you to?

It's my own idea.

Please stay and support my husband.

You don't want me here.

I've never thought that.

Be honest with yourself
or you'll regret it.

Look, your weaving is rough.

Everyone is being considerate of you.

Did you know?

It's silly.

You have three children.

I'll be honest with you.

I wanted to bear Genjiro's child.

But that was a long time ago.

So don't dwell on unnecessary things.

You are most important to him.

This should do it.

Please hold this end.

-Shall I pull it?
-Please.

Kiri.

Please don't leave.

Please stay for me.

This looks good.

Yes.

I'm thinking of going to Kyoto.

My grandmother is at a place
called Zuiryu-ji Temple.

Your grandmother will be happy.

I'm going back to Luzon after I see her.

I see.

I will preciously use the life you saved.

What does that mean?

I'm not going to tell you.

This is the Sanada-himo strap.

I want you to test how sturdy it is.

Yes.

Haru and I made it.

It was hard work.

How much is one?

It's very sturdy compared to
the normal rope and strap.

It'll come in handy
when hanging heavy things.

By changing the color of the threads,

you can weave in designs.

It can be used as decoration
for armors and swords.

We are farmers.

We don't need such sturdy straps.

We have no need for armors
and swords in our life.

Right!

I know that.

Let's make a deal.

I thought of this strap.

But I lack the manpower
to mass-produce,

and I can't go out to sell.

Hence, village headman...

I'd like to leave the production
and sales to you.

What?

I'll teach you how to make it.

Please make it and sell it.

But I'd like to receive
a deposit of 5-kan.

The conditions are 10% of sales,

and that you name it Sanada-himo.

What do you say?

I'm hoping to repay the villagers
after all these years.

You'll surely profit from it.

Please reap the rewards.

Sorry I'm late.

Naiki, we've been waiting.

What a feast!

Sasuke bought these
with the money we earned.

Please enjoy.

I haven't eaten sea bream in many years.

Everyone, come and eat.

There's more coming.

Bring him hot water.

I don't see Daisuke.

He must be vexed
that he lost 15 consecutive games.

How immature,
getting so serious against a child.

The world of go is harsh.

-Father.
-Stay as you are.

I heard you lost again.

Grandfather would always play go
against Naiki before a battle.

It was to calm his nerves.

I don't play it, so I don't know.

Is that how it is?

I don't know.

Will you teach me?

What?

Teach me.

Maybe you should learn from Naiki.

I want to learn from you.

What do I do first?

Well...

Think of the board as the land.

Oh?

That's what Naiki said.

What's next?

The stones are pegs.

If you surround it,
that becomes your fief.

The one with more fiefs, wins.

Is that right?

I didn't know.

Daisuke, you make it easy to understand.

One more thing.

If you surround your opponent's stone,
you can take it.

Surround it?

By doing that,
you remove your opponent's pegs,

put your pegs in
and thus expand your fiefs.

That's the game of go.

Let's play a game.

Are you serious?

Please play a game with me.

Yes.

I'll go first.

You must be Sanada Nobushige.

Who are you?

You are...?

Former vassal of Ukita Hideie,
Akashi Teruzumi.

I have come to get you.

END OF EPISODE 39

Tokugawa...

...is invading.

I'm fleeing from here
to enter Osaka Castle.

Where's the Genjiro I loved?

The enemy's army
is at least 200,000 strong.

I'm taking charge.

We're confining ourselves
in the castle.

I'm taking Ieyasu's head!

Men, calm down.

I don't care about myself.

Please don't let Hideyori die.

You have aged.

Father isn't wrapping it up.

I am.

I'll punish those rebels!

I swore my allegiance to the Tokugawa!

I can't be like Genjiro!

Everyone has his own wish.

That makes us strong.

I don't think we will lose.
