Directed by
Yoji Yamada
4
00:01:27,070 --> 00:01:30,267
Not that way
5
00:01:34,542 --> 00:01:36,134
No, no, no!
6
00:01:43,349 --> 00:01:46,284
Thank you. You may go
7
00:02:00,263 --> 00:02:04,131
After a long illness
my mother died...
8
00:02:04,633 --> 00:02:07,466
...when I was five
9
00:02:08,136 --> 00:02:11,833
She had consumption...
10
00:02:12,106 --> 00:02:17,203
...so from when I can remember
I wasn't allowed near her
11
00:02:17,543 --> 00:02:23,175
Thus I have almost no memory
of my mother
12
00:02:31,355 --> 00:02:33,846
Ito... Ito...
13
00:02:34,591 --> 00:02:37,526
You poor little darling!
14
00:02:59,911 --> 00:03:06,339
I am from Unasaka, in the northeast
in what is now Yamagata Prefecture
15
00:03:07,083 --> 00:03:10,177
Before 1868 it was the castle town
of the Unasaka clan...
16
00:03:10,486 --> 00:03:15,150
...a small fief of 70,000 koku
of rice per year
17
00:03:38,408 --> 00:03:40,899
well done, one and all
18
00:03:41,778 --> 00:03:44,576
That's it for today
19
00:03:51,252 --> 00:03:52,742
Sakaguchi...
20
00:03:53,454 --> 00:03:57,948
I've heard there's a good
drinking place in Hakkenmachi...
21
00:03:58,725 --> 00:04:00,488
Oh, you mean 'Hisago'?
22
00:04:01,394 --> 00:04:02,486
Feel like a drink?
23
00:04:02,728 --> 00:04:04,093
A fine idea
24
00:04:05,330 --> 00:04:07,958
Kawanami, will you come?
25
00:04:08,266 --> 00:04:09,494
I will
26
00:04:09,734 --> 00:04:10,996
Iguchi?
27
00:04:11,969 --> 00:04:14,130
For a change?
28
00:04:14,471 --> 00:04:15,870
Not me, thanks
29
00:04:16,139 --> 00:04:17,902
we can't twist your arm?
30
00:04:18,107 --> 00:04:20,473
If you'll excuse me...
31
00:04:23,878 --> 00:04:27,541
Twilight's not very exciting
is he
32
00:04:37,723 --> 00:04:42,820
with a sick wife, two young daughters
and an aged mother in his care...
33
00:04:43,127 --> 00:04:47,757
...my father was unable
to drink with his colleagues
34
00:04:48,031 --> 00:04:53,264
He had to hurry home
every evening at dusk
35
00:05:03,243 --> 00:05:08,271
I was told the men
he worked with...
36
00:05:08,581 --> 00:05:14,520
...gave him the cruel nickname
of 'Twilight Seibei'
37
00:05:16,287 --> 00:05:24,991
THE TWILIGHT SAMURAI
38
00:05:36,737 --> 00:05:37,863
Ito...
39
00:05:38,138 --> 00:05:39,537
Father!
40
00:05:40,240 --> 00:05:42,470
Up you go!
41
00:05:47,812 --> 00:05:49,803
Your face is dirty
42
00:06:06,961 --> 00:06:08,519
Father's back!
43
00:06:08,863 --> 00:06:10,455
Welcome home
44
00:06:16,435 --> 00:06:20,371
Codfish stew tonight, Kayano?
45
00:06:23,141 --> 00:06:24,369
Don't drop it
46
00:06:27,144 --> 00:06:32,138
I'm home, Mother
How are you this evening?
47
00:06:32,382 --> 00:06:35,283
Of what household are you, sir?
48
00:06:36,518 --> 00:06:40,682
I am Seibei Iguchi of the
Unasaka Clan, Castle Stores
49
00:06:41,022 --> 00:06:42,580
I see...
50
00:06:45,392 --> 00:06:51,956
She's getting worse. She doesn't
even know her own son!
51
00:07:00,070 --> 00:07:03,904
Kayano, I've simmered
some burdock. Take some
52
00:07:04,140 --> 00:07:06,438
Thank you. You're always
so kind to my daughters
53
00:07:08,244 --> 00:07:12,010
Naota... you can go home now
54
00:07:12,247 --> 00:07:13,236
Yup
55
00:07:28,093 --> 00:07:31,290
Good evening
56
00:07:31,663 --> 00:07:36,066
But Yazaki, can't we do something
about Twilight?
57
00:07:36,500 --> 00:07:40,698
His kimono's all ripped
and hardly ever takes a bath
58
00:07:40,770 --> 00:07:43,466
There's this smell
when you get close to him
59
00:07:44,673 --> 00:07:46,641
It just won't do!
60
00:07:47,375 --> 00:07:50,469
Yes, sir. we all find it
very hard to stomach
61
00:07:50,778 --> 00:07:53,747
we've asked around about
finding him a new wife...
62
00:07:53,981 --> 00:07:57,439
...but no woman would want
his situation
63
00:07:57,684 --> 00:07:59,208
Indeed!
64
00:07:59,518 --> 00:08:01,986
He's got two young girls
a senile old mother...
65
00:08:02,254 --> 00:08:06,918
...and 20 of his 50 koku
gone in debt
66
00:08:07,225 --> 00:08:11,286
Any woman who went to him
would have to take in work
67
00:08:12,062 --> 00:08:14,690
Yes, he owes money
all over the place
68
00:08:15,198 --> 00:08:18,656
I don't know how he paid for
his wife's funeral
69
00:08:18,934 --> 00:08:23,234
Not even selling your sword
would pay for a funeral like that
70
00:08:24,805 --> 00:08:27,171
A funeral! That's something
I have to worry about, too
71
00:08:27,407 --> 00:08:31,241
My father's not going to
last much longer
72
00:08:32,278 --> 00:08:37,409
Kawanami's lucky
Young parents and a pretty wife!
73
00:08:37,682 --> 00:08:42,244
You'd better go easy with her
It could hurt your work
74
00:08:42,586 --> 00:08:47,148
Is that why you're always
cat-napping on the job?
75
00:08:47,823 --> 00:08:49,620
I am not!
76
00:08:49,892 --> 00:08:51,587
Listen to him!
77
00:08:51,827 --> 00:08:53,192
Kumi...
78
00:08:53,495 --> 00:08:54,826
Welcome!
79
00:08:55,063 --> 00:08:57,224
Isn't she gorgeous!
80
00:08:57,465 --> 00:08:58,864
Kume...
81
00:09:24,386 --> 00:09:26,251
Bed-time, Gran
82
00:09:28,623 --> 00:09:31,217
Good night, Seibei
83
00:09:31,492 --> 00:09:33,722
Good night
84
00:09:35,729 --> 00:09:38,926
It looks like
she remembered me
85
00:09:40,833 --> 00:09:47,102
The Master said: To rule a land
of a thousand chariots...
86
00:09:47,338 --> 00:09:48,771
Kayano...
87
00:09:49,006 --> 00:09:53,534
That's Confucius, isn't it?
when did you start learning that?
88
00:09:53,776 --> 00:09:57,837
At the end of last month
The teacher says...
89
00:09:58,147 --> 00:10:01,310
...from now on even girls
will need book learning
90
00:10:01,616 --> 00:10:03,481
That's good
91
00:10:03,851 --> 00:10:08,083
When I was a boy I read Confucius
over and over again
92
00:10:12,558 --> 00:10:14,116
Father...
93
00:10:15,027 --> 00:10:17,018
If I learn to do
needlework...
94
00:10:17,362 --> 00:10:23,562
...someday I can make kimonos
95
00:10:24,668 --> 00:10:29,162
But what good will
book learning ever do me?
96
00:10:30,239 --> 00:10:40,137
Well, it probably won't ever be
as useful as needlework
97
00:10:43,650 --> 00:10:45,743
But you know...
98
00:10:46,119 --> 00:10:51,853
...book learning gives you
the power...
99
00:10:52,123 --> 00:10:54,648
...to think
100
00:10:55,126 --> 00:11:00,928
However the world might change
if you have the power to think...
101
00:11:01,197 --> 00:11:04,166
...you'll always survive somehow
102
00:11:04,433 --> 00:11:08,392
That's true for boys
and for girls
103
00:11:10,171 --> 00:11:11,433
All right?
104
00:11:11,639 --> 00:11:13,038
Yes
105
00:11:14,942 --> 00:11:17,672
Keep reading, then
106
00:11:17,777 --> 00:11:22,612
Tseng Tzu said: Each day
in three ways...
107
00:11:22,948 --> 00:11:25,212
...I ask myself...
108
00:11:25,650 --> 00:11:30,519
...if I have faithfully carried out
what I undertook for another...
109
00:11:30,855 --> 00:11:34,655
My mother's illness had left
my father deep in debt
110
00:11:34,891 --> 00:11:40,227
As Grandmother lost her wits, all the
housework, the gathering of fuel...
111
00:11:40,462 --> 00:11:45,263
...and the field work fell to him
112
00:11:45,533 --> 00:11:49,492
Left with little time
to attend to himself...
113
00:11:49,870 --> 00:11:54,204
...he gradually became
unkempt and grimy
114
00:11:55,741 --> 00:12:02,442
As his daughter, I felt terrible
about this
115
00:12:04,015 --> 00:12:05,744
Wipe off that dust!
116
00:12:07,984 --> 00:12:10,077
They're coming!
117
00:12:12,121 --> 00:12:14,021
His Lordship attends!
118
00:12:14,590 --> 00:12:16,990
Kawanami! Quick!
119
00:12:17,726 --> 00:12:19,990
Provisions'
120
00:12:20,361 --> 00:12:26,391
Vital stores of food for when
the clan must fight, or the castle...
121
00:12:26,733 --> 00:12:29,031
...is besieged
122
00:12:29,335 --> 00:12:32,930
Next we have the Salt Storehouse...
123
00:12:37,208 --> 00:12:41,645
Here you have your beans
green, soy and red...
124
00:12:42,079 --> 00:12:46,516
We pay particular attention
to keeping them dry
125
00:12:46,849 --> 00:12:50,808
Dried giant horse-radish
dried fiddleheads, miso paste...
126
00:12:51,052 --> 00:12:53,418
Kusaka!
127
00:12:56,090 --> 00:12:59,321
This is dried codfish...
128
00:12:59,593 --> 00:13:03,495
...very important provisioning
in times of war
129
00:13:03,729 --> 00:13:06,061
How much have we got?
130
00:13:07,032 --> 00:13:08,522
Iguchi...
131
00:13:13,337 --> 00:13:17,501
Iguchi? You may answer
directly
132
00:13:19,909 --> 00:13:24,710
By your leave. we have
760 strips...
133
00:13:25,013 --> 00:13:27,948
...by weight approximately
120 kan
134
00:13:28,216 --> 00:13:30,548
How long does it keep?
135
00:13:31,618 --> 00:13:33,950
Between five and ten years
136
00:13:34,387 --> 00:13:37,356
This here is the oldest
we have.
137
00:13:37,623 --> 00:13:40,683
It was acquired
six years ago
138
00:13:41,159 --> 00:13:46,688
This dried cod from Kansaki is best
It holds its taste for ten years
139
00:13:51,935 --> 00:13:56,269
That strange smell I noticed
is it you?
140
00:14:01,442 --> 00:14:06,937
Clan retainers must serve
as examples to the common folk
141
00:14:07,214 --> 00:14:09,079
Keep yourself clean
142
00:14:10,183 --> 00:14:12,845
Yes, Milord!
143
00:14:13,619 --> 00:14:15,553
Carry on
144
00:14:19,590 --> 00:14:20,989
Idiot!
145
00:14:31,733 --> 00:14:33,166
Sir, I...
146
00:14:33,435 --> 00:14:35,198
I'll speak to you later
147
00:14:35,703 --> 00:14:36,260
But...
148
00:14:36,504 --> 00:14:37,630
Be quiet!
149
00:14:42,775 --> 00:14:44,140
Iguchi!
150
00:14:46,245 --> 00:14:49,703
You damn fool!
151
00:14:52,417 --> 00:14:56,581
The story spread
throughout the castle
152
00:14:56,987 --> 00:15:01,515
My father became
a laughingstock
153
00:15:09,363 --> 00:15:15,859
My Great-Uncle came from
the main house in a foul humor
154
00:15:21,340 --> 00:15:23,035
Hello!
155
00:15:23,341 --> 00:15:25,866
Hello!
156
00:15:27,111 --> 00:15:28,840
Seibei!
157
00:15:29,680 --> 00:15:31,671
It's Uncle...
158
00:15:32,882 --> 00:15:35,009
I'm in for it now
159
00:15:35,885 --> 00:15:40,117
Is anybody here?
what, are you all dead?!
160
00:15:40,355 --> 00:15:41,822
Coming!
161
00:15:43,057 --> 00:15:45,184
Kayano, make some tea
162
00:15:45,426 --> 00:15:46,256
Who is it?
163
00:15:46,493 --> 00:15:47,960
Great-Uncle!
164
00:15:49,629 --> 00:15:53,861
Disgraceful!
165
00:15:54,166 --> 00:15:57,932
You appeared before His Lordship
unbathed, smelling like dried cod
166
00:15:58,236 --> 00:15:59,294
The unpleasant impression
you created...
167
00:15:59,637 --> 00:16:04,540
...shames the house of Iguchi
168
00:16:05,041 --> 00:16:07,771
That was inexcusable
169
00:16:07,910 --> 00:16:14,645
I went to Senior Retainer Terauchi
and apologized for you
170
00:16:14,949 --> 00:16:19,682
His Lordship is a generous man
so he did not find fault
171
00:16:19,887 --> 00:16:23,414
Had that been his father, though...
172
00:16:23,690 --> 00:16:25,851
...this would have meant
hara-kiri!
173
00:16:25,925 --> 00:16:29,827
I never dreamed
it would cause so much trouble
174
00:16:30,128 --> 00:16:32,323
I beg your forgiveness
175
00:16:33,364 --> 00:16:34,991
Kayano?
176
00:16:36,500 --> 00:16:38,434
How old are you now?
177
00:16:38,735 --> 00:16:40,703
I am ten years old
178
00:16:41,471 --> 00:16:44,770
Are you working at
your lessons?
179
00:16:45,874 --> 00:16:49,139
I'm learning needlework
and Confucius
180
00:16:49,344 --> 00:16:53,007
A girl has no need
of the classics
181
00:16:53,347 --> 00:16:56,339
All you need is
to write women's script
182
00:16:56,649 --> 00:16:59,413
Too much book learning
and you'll never be a bride
183
00:16:59,518 --> 00:17:01,645
You can go
184
00:17:10,128 --> 00:17:15,566
I am here today
on an important matter
185
00:17:17,100 --> 00:17:19,295
A marriage arrangement
186
00:17:19,802 --> 00:17:25,604
You need a hard-working wife
to escape the misery you are in
187
00:17:26,007 --> 00:17:30,205
A village-headman acquaintance
has an unmarried daughter...
188
00:17:30,511 --> 00:17:34,379
...whom he agrees
to marry to you
189
00:17:34,647 --> 00:17:39,983
He knows you are poor, have two
young daughters and a senile mother
190
00:17:40,185 --> 00:17:44,349
I'm sure you realize that you are
in no position to demand beauty
191
00:17:44,589 --> 00:17:48,923
You need a healthy wife with
big haunches to bear children
192
00:17:49,326 --> 00:17:52,420
Her face is of no concern
193
00:17:52,562 --> 00:18:01,129
So I'll proceed with this
if you don't mind
194
00:18:02,103 --> 00:18:05,630
With all due respect
I must differ
195
00:18:05,906 --> 00:18:07,203
How?
196
00:18:07,674 --> 00:18:13,635
I am not nearly as miserable
in my living as you may think
197
00:18:13,879 --> 00:18:18,009
Of course, offending His Lordship
by appearing unbathed before him...
198
00:18:18,282 --> 00:18:22,616
...was wrong, and I vow
never to repeat it
199
00:18:24,854 --> 00:18:26,185
However...
200
00:18:27,156 --> 00:18:31,559
...watching my daughters
as they grow day by day is...
201
00:18:33,161 --> 00:18:35,629
...how shall I put it?
202
00:18:36,397 --> 00:18:43,166
It's like watching crops ripen
or flowers grow in a field
203
00:18:44,937 --> 00:18:47,428
I enjoy it very much
204
00:18:50,008 --> 00:18:53,171
I'm not sure if the lady
of whom you speak...
205
00:18:53,444 --> 00:18:57,710
...would understand that
206
00:18:58,014 --> 00:19:01,347
Who would understand
such foolishness?!
207
00:19:03,686 --> 00:19:06,519
You've always been like this...
208
00:19:06,888 --> 00:19:11,951
...tormenting your poor father
with this prattling of yours!
209
00:19:12,693 --> 00:19:17,926
What has your marriage
got to do with crops in a field?
210
00:19:18,164 --> 00:19:21,600
Then I beg leave
to speak more clearly
211
00:19:21,900 --> 00:19:26,860
I ask that you not concern yourself
with questions of my marriage
212
00:19:27,838 --> 00:19:31,035
You defy the main branch
of your family?!
213
00:19:31,575 --> 00:19:34,169
You are welcome here
214
00:19:36,245 --> 00:19:38,839
Kinu... are you well?
215
00:19:39,114 --> 00:19:41,207
I am, thank you
216
00:19:41,516 --> 00:19:47,182
May I ask of which household
you come?
217
00:19:47,821 --> 00:19:49,516
I'm your damn brother!
218
00:19:49,722 --> 00:19:53,249
Take her away, Seibei
She's a nuisance
219
00:19:53,492 --> 00:19:55,255
Mother...
220
00:19:55,527 --> 00:19:59,588
Most unseemly! what will
the neighbors think?
221
00:19:59,864 --> 00:20:02,128
Tie her to a post somewhere!
222
00:20:06,503 --> 00:20:12,874
'Expect no more help from me! '...
223
00:20:13,141 --> 00:20:16,907
...shouted my great-uncle
as he left in high dudgeon
224
00:20:19,013 --> 00:20:21,208
Can you do that?
225
00:20:21,915 --> 00:20:24,213
Let me see
226
00:20:28,720 --> 00:20:32,588
Here... twist it
as you fit it in
227
00:20:34,825 --> 00:20:36,383
Is Gran asleep?
228
00:20:36,560 --> 00:20:37,720
Yes
229
00:20:39,129 --> 00:20:40,596
Good
230
00:20:40,830 --> 00:20:42,457
Father...
231
00:20:43,199 --> 00:20:46,430
Gran was crying, you know
232
00:20:46,668 --> 00:20:48,829
Uncle shouted at her
233
00:20:50,871 --> 00:20:53,305
Poor Gran!
234
00:20:56,976 --> 00:20:59,774
Do you like Uncle?
235
00:21:01,413 --> 00:21:03,574
You don't?
236
00:21:07,118 --> 00:21:09,348
I hate him
237
00:21:14,490 --> 00:21:21,089
He came to talk about a new wife
for me, but I said no
238
00:21:22,397 --> 00:21:25,889
I don't want to take
any help from him
239
00:21:27,000 --> 00:21:29,992
You'd think we were
buying a cow!
240
00:21:30,236 --> 00:21:36,539
All she needs is to be healthy
that's rude to the lady as well
241
00:21:40,211 --> 00:21:42,441
Are you two lonely...
242
00:21:44,748 --> 00:21:47,945
...without a mother?
243
00:21:49,752 --> 00:21:52,516
I'm not lonely if you're here
244
00:21:52,754 --> 00:21:54,016
Me, too
245
00:21:59,260 --> 00:22:00,989
That's my girls
246
00:22:11,736 --> 00:22:14,136
Do you want the toilet, Gran?
247
00:22:41,860 --> 00:22:43,384
Look!
248
00:22:44,096 --> 00:22:47,361
Butterbur buds!
Get lots, all right?
249
00:22:52,736 --> 00:22:54,704
what's that?
250
00:22:56,606 --> 00:22:58,631
A child!
251
00:22:59,274 --> 00:23:03,040
The poor thing!
He's nothing but bones!
252
00:23:03,444 --> 00:23:05,935
where'd he come from?
253
00:23:06,213 --> 00:23:08,579
Matsukawa, maybe
254
00:23:08,949 --> 00:23:11,383
Rise to Buddha!
255
00:23:11,918 --> 00:23:15,979
As children
we loved to go gathering herbs...
256
00:23:16,288 --> 00:23:21,055
...by the river
in early spring
257
00:23:21,325 --> 00:23:25,489
But those were times
of famine
258
00:23:25,762 --> 00:23:28,526
The cold melt water often brought
the bodies of peasants...
259
00:23:28,831 --> 00:23:32,028
...dead of starvation
260
00:23:37,038 --> 00:23:38,733
Aim...
261
00:23:43,343 --> 00:23:45,277
Fire!
262
00:23:52,150 --> 00:23:53,879
All of you, watch me
263
00:23:54,118 --> 00:23:56,177
Elbows up...
264
00:23:56,921 --> 00:23:59,014
Brace the right knee...
265
00:23:59,256 --> 00:24:02,225
Seibei! Sorry to keep you
waiting
266
00:24:05,461 --> 00:24:07,486
You went to Kyoto?
267
00:24:07,729 --> 00:24:11,392
Yes, with the Majordomo to talk
to merchants there and in Osaka
268
00:24:11,633 --> 00:24:13,794
what's Kyoto like?
269
00:24:14,936 --> 00:24:18,929
I had high hopes for it
but it was horrible
270
00:24:19,172 --> 00:24:22,005
I've never seen the like
of Miyako-oji Boulevard
271
00:24:24,543 --> 00:24:28,206
Filthy masterless samurai from
all over the country everywhere...
272
00:24:28,513 --> 00:24:32,847
...cursing and swearing
in dialects you can't understand
273
00:24:33,184 --> 00:24:37,314
Then someone shouts 'Divine
punishment! ' and the swords come out
274
00:24:40,790 --> 00:24:47,320
The Kamo River's full of headless
corpses all swollen up...
275
00:24:47,962 --> 00:24:51,363
I thought it'd be geishas in Gion...
276
00:24:56,135 --> 00:24:57,534
Dear me!
277
00:25:00,472 --> 00:25:01,837
Prime!
278
00:25:03,174 --> 00:25:05,142
Aim!
279
00:25:05,643 --> 00:25:07,941
Fire!
280
00:25:08,212 --> 00:25:09,839
Misfire!
281
00:25:10,947 --> 00:25:12,744
wait! what's wrong?
282
00:25:14,984 --> 00:25:16,246
Ow!
283
00:25:16,452 --> 00:25:18,682
Fool!
284
00:25:18,954 --> 00:25:21,252
I told you to wait!
285
00:25:22,056 --> 00:25:24,889
They're a bit late
286
00:25:26,193 --> 00:25:28,684
The Choshu clan may have been
beaten once
287
00:25:28,962 --> 00:25:31,522
but they'll be back with Satsuma
288
00:25:31,831 --> 00:25:36,734
They'll snuff out 250 years of
Shoguns like the wind does a candle
289
00:25:37,202 --> 00:25:38,931
what's our clan doing?
290
00:25:39,237 --> 00:25:42,263
Our leaders aren't thinking!
291
00:25:44,141 --> 00:25:47,474
How would you like
to go to Kyoto?
292
00:25:49,578 --> 00:25:52,240
The Emperor's palace
is short of guards
293
00:25:52,514 --> 00:25:54,379
I'll recommend you
294
00:25:54,682 --> 00:25:57,116
You'll see how things are
295
00:25:57,385 --> 00:26:01,788
Someone like you shouldn't be
stuck in a field here right now
296
00:26:02,222 --> 00:26:06,818
I'm afraid
you over-estimate me
297
00:26:07,026 --> 00:26:10,120
The times are changing
298
00:26:10,629 --> 00:26:17,193
when they do, I'll give up
samurai status and be a farmer
299
00:26:17,868 --> 00:26:20,598
That's what I'm suited for
300
00:26:24,073 --> 00:26:26,871
You're a strange one
301
00:26:28,676 --> 00:26:32,112
But you always were
302
00:26:34,014 --> 00:26:36,505
No ambition at all
303
00:26:37,950 --> 00:26:40,350
Oh, I nearly forgot...
304
00:26:42,854 --> 00:26:47,484
My condolences
on your bereavement
305
00:26:49,126 --> 00:26:51,287
Burn a joss stick for her
306
00:26:51,561 --> 00:26:54,928
You didn't have to...
307
00:26:55,298 --> 00:26:58,461
I wanted to send my sister
to the funeral in my place...
308
00:26:58,734 --> 00:27:02,864
...but she was having
some troubles of her own
309
00:27:03,137 --> 00:27:04,126
I'm sorry
310
00:27:04,372 --> 00:27:06,704
Miss Tomoe? what's wrong?
311
00:27:09,075 --> 00:27:13,978
You know she married the son
of Captain Koda...
312
00:27:14,213 --> 00:27:18,741
It turns out this Toyotaro
is a mean drunk.
313
00:27:19,017 --> 00:27:21,611
If I'd known
I'd never have agreed
314
00:27:21,852 --> 00:27:23,581
A mean drunk?
315
00:27:23,654 --> 00:27:26,919
He'd hit her, kick her...
316
00:27:27,390 --> 00:27:31,053
She'd come running
to my house to get away
317
00:27:31,427 --> 00:27:34,863
I was worried
one day he'd kill her...
318
00:27:35,063 --> 00:27:38,499
...so I got the Castle
to order them divorced
319
00:27:38,799 --> 00:27:40,027
Divorced?
320
00:27:40,267 --> 00:27:42,167
Just recently
321
00:27:42,402 --> 00:27:47,066
So now Tomoe's
back at my house
322
00:27:48,374 --> 00:27:53,710
Really?
323
00:27:53,945 --> 00:27:58,575
And here I thought she was the wife
of a fine 1200-koku samurai
324
00:27:59,216 --> 00:28:01,707
I had no idea
325
00:28:02,718 --> 00:28:08,350
I made a mistake. She's gone
through hell because of me
326
00:28:14,461 --> 00:28:16,952
well done, one and all
327
00:28:17,397 --> 00:28:20,889
That's it for today
328
00:28:27,605 --> 00:28:29,072
Sakaguchi...
329
00:28:29,940 --> 00:28:33,808
Sakaguchi! Feel like
dropping in at 'Hisago'?
330
00:28:34,044 --> 00:28:35,978
You want to see O-Kume!
331
00:28:36,045 --> 00:28:37,171
Quiet!
332
00:28:37,380 --> 00:28:38,904
You come too, Kawanami
333
00:28:39,148 --> 00:28:40,046
Again?
334
00:28:40,315 --> 00:28:41,077
Damn right!
335
00:28:41,349 --> 00:28:43,249
I'll be going
336
00:28:43,451 --> 00:28:44,679
Iguchi...
337
00:28:45,653 --> 00:28:48,781
You should come see the girls
Take your mind off things
338
00:28:49,022 --> 00:28:50,956
I'm fine, thanks.
339
00:28:54,527 --> 00:28:55,425
Iguchi...
340
00:28:55,661 --> 00:28:57,458
Don't waste your breath
341
00:29:10,673 --> 00:29:12,868
Look, Naota. The azaleas are out
342
00:29:13,042 --> 00:29:14,031
Yup
343
00:29:23,784 --> 00:29:26,844
Kayano, Ito, I'm home!
344
00:29:29,188 --> 00:29:30,678
No one's here...
345
00:29:39,863 --> 00:29:42,024
welcome home
346
00:29:45,968 --> 00:29:48,436
It's been a long time
347
00:29:54,008 --> 00:29:59,378
Uh... perhaps there's... um
348
00:30:00,613 --> 00:30:05,846
You were out
when I came by...
349
00:30:08,820 --> 00:30:15,419
Have you forgotten me?
I'm Iinuma's younger sister, Tomoe
350
00:30:17,260 --> 00:30:21,219
Oh, Miss Tomoe!
351
00:30:21,730 --> 00:30:24,290
I didn't know you
352
00:30:25,433 --> 00:30:31,497
I've just seen your brother today
He told me what had happened
353
00:30:31,738 --> 00:30:36,607
So you know all about it, then?
354
00:30:37,376 --> 00:30:38,775
Yes
355
00:30:39,811 --> 00:30:44,077
Because of that I'm back
living at his house
356
00:30:44,348 --> 00:30:48,182
There's nothing for me to do
so they have me weaving
357
00:30:48,551 --> 00:30:52,009
I came here to escape
358
00:30:52,254 --> 00:30:54,051
You're very welcome
359
00:30:55,123 --> 00:30:57,921
Let's go inside
360
00:30:59,460 --> 00:31:00,791
Your sock...
361
00:31:01,028 --> 00:31:02,962
Oh, yes...
362
00:31:14,172 --> 00:31:17,437
It seems your father
had forgotten me!
363
00:31:17,675 --> 00:31:20,872
we always played together!
364
00:31:21,211 --> 00:31:23,873
welcome home
365
00:31:24,013 --> 00:31:30,316
Kayano, Ito, this is Miss Tomoe
we're, uh...
366
00:31:30,585 --> 00:31:33,452
Childhood friends
He always used to tease me
367
00:31:33,688 --> 00:31:35,622
I did not!
368
00:31:35,956 --> 00:31:37,856
I got a present
369
00:31:38,191 --> 00:31:39,818
Me, too
370
00:31:40,060 --> 00:31:42,893
Aren't they pretty!
371
00:31:43,562 --> 00:31:45,359
Mother, I'm home
372
00:31:45,597 --> 00:31:47,030
welcome home
373
00:31:47,499 --> 00:31:50,468
Do you know this lady?
374
00:31:51,068 --> 00:31:53,195
She's Miss Tomoe
the Iinuma girl
375
00:31:53,270 --> 00:31:55,465
See? She remembered me
376
00:31:55,772 --> 00:32:01,642
That's good. And of course
you remember me, don't you?
377
00:32:03,045 --> 00:32:06,708
Of which household are you?
378
00:32:09,016 --> 00:32:11,177
I'm your son
379
00:32:12,285 --> 00:32:14,116
You are, are you?
380
00:32:14,287 --> 00:32:16,084
Hello
381
00:32:16,555 --> 00:32:18,921
Tane, watch the hotpot
382
00:32:20,559 --> 00:32:27,795
It was as if our house was brighter
from the moment Miss Tomoe arrived
383
00:32:29,933 --> 00:32:32,231
I've never forgotten
It was when I was five
384
00:32:32,535 --> 00:32:37,996
I always wanted to do
whatever the boys did
385
00:32:38,273 --> 00:32:43,267
Once I was climbing a pine tree
and a branch broke...
386
00:32:43,478 --> 00:32:45,070
...and I got hurt
387
00:32:45,312 --> 00:32:47,075
Really?
388
00:32:47,414 --> 00:32:50,872
Yes! Your father happened
to be there that day...
389
00:32:51,150 --> 00:32:56,315
...and he carried me piggy-back
all the way to the doctor!
390
00:32:56,688 --> 00:33:01,625
I think he was 12 or 13
391
00:33:02,593 --> 00:33:06,791
His back was this big!
392
00:33:07,063 --> 00:33:12,865
Just like a grown-up's
He made me feel so safe...
393
00:33:13,101 --> 00:33:15,262
Do you remember, Seibei?
394
00:33:16,004 --> 00:33:20,373
I remember
something like that...
395
00:33:22,209 --> 00:33:24,769
when I was nine
my mother told me...
396
00:33:25,311 --> 00:33:29,372
...I couldn't play
with boys any more
397
00:33:29,681 --> 00:33:32,445
I was so sad...
398
00:33:33,685 --> 00:33:36,916
Being a girl's no fun, Kayano
399
00:33:37,154 --> 00:33:40,817
Drip, drip drip...
400
00:33:41,124 --> 00:33:44,457
...come our Chonbei's tears
401
00:33:44,727 --> 00:33:46,627
Drip, drip, drip...
402
00:33:46,862 --> 00:33:51,094
Let's catch his falling tears...
403
00:33:51,399 --> 00:33:53,924
...and wipe them away...
404
00:33:54,334 --> 00:33:57,064
wipe them away...
405
00:33:57,437 --> 00:34:01,840
Let's take his
tear-soaked kimono...
406
00:34:02,074 --> 00:34:02,870
...and wash it clean...
407
00:34:03,142 --> 00:34:04,769
wash it clean...
408
00:34:05,010 --> 00:34:08,502
Let's take the kimono
we've washed...
409
00:34:08,779 --> 00:34:10,440
...and wring it out...
410
00:34:10,713 --> 00:34:12,510
wring it out...
411
00:34:12,748 --> 00:34:15,581
Let's take the kimono
we've wrung out...
412
00:34:16,818 --> 00:34:18,445
...and hang it to dry...
413
00:34:18,786 --> 00:34:21,448
Hang it to dry...
414
00:34:26,692 --> 00:34:30,719
You haven't changed
at all, have you
415
00:34:32,130 --> 00:34:37,261
It's as if I'm
a completely different person
416
00:34:38,569 --> 00:34:41,231
That's not true
417
00:34:41,738 --> 00:34:46,334
You still smile
just like you used to
418
00:34:48,543 --> 00:34:54,709
You don't have to console me
I know I've changed
419
00:34:57,484 --> 00:35:01,818
People told me how radiant
a bride you were...
420
00:35:02,254 --> 00:35:04,484
...when you went to
the Koda house
421
00:35:05,390 --> 00:35:07,654
I don't want to remember
422
00:35:32,912 --> 00:35:37,349
It's very late
I'll leave you here
423
00:35:39,751 --> 00:35:43,187
Say hello to your brother
424
00:35:44,855 --> 00:35:47,289
Your beard's growing out...
425
00:35:48,425 --> 00:35:50,222
It's so soft!
426
00:35:53,129 --> 00:35:54,960
Iinuma! I want the truth!
427
00:35:55,264 --> 00:35:57,164
That man's here!
428
00:35:57,399 --> 00:35:59,959
My husband...
429
00:36:03,137 --> 00:36:09,042
My ex-husband... I'd know
that drunken voice anywhere
430
00:36:10,109 --> 00:36:11,508
I'm going!
431
00:36:12,077 --> 00:36:13,339
Your master's leaving
432
00:36:13,645 --> 00:36:14,907
Hands off!
433
00:36:15,146 --> 00:36:16,113
I'm not drunk!
434
00:36:16,347 --> 00:36:19,646
My sandals!
435
00:36:19,883 --> 00:36:22,613
Iinuma! where's Tomoe gone?
436
00:36:22,886 --> 00:36:25,218
I told you, she's at her aunt's
437
00:36:25,421 --> 00:36:26,979
You're lying!
438
00:36:27,256 --> 00:36:31,249
Please! Keep your voice down!
There are elderly people here!
439
00:36:31,493 --> 00:36:32,721
To hell with her
440
00:36:33,027 --> 00:36:35,018
Listen, linuma...
441
00:36:35,363 --> 00:36:39,959
If I'm not good enough for Tomoe
she's welcome to leave
442
00:36:40,166 --> 00:36:42,100
But linuma...
443
00:36:42,335 --> 00:36:45,099
...I've got a bone to pick
with you
444
00:36:45,638 --> 00:36:49,699
You went to His Lordship
and got him to divorce us
445
00:36:49,941 --> 00:36:54,344
Squire Koda, I've told you
time and time again...
446
00:36:54,612 --> 00:36:56,045
Shut up!
447
00:36:56,613 --> 00:37:01,516
You made me a joke
in front of the whole castle!
448
00:37:01,584 --> 00:37:04,917
I demand satisfaction!
449
00:37:05,187 --> 00:37:05,585
Squire Koda!
450
00:37:05,821 --> 00:37:06,412
My sword!
451
00:37:08,256 --> 00:37:10,554
Stop this, will you?!
452
00:37:11,959 --> 00:37:13,790
Tomoe...
453
00:37:14,561 --> 00:37:19,157
where've you been
till this hour of the night?
454
00:37:19,398 --> 00:37:22,856
where I go is no one's business
but mine
455
00:37:23,101 --> 00:37:26,298
And I'll say this, too
456
00:37:26,504 --> 00:37:31,601
I am not your wife now
It's 'Miss Tomoe' to you
457
00:37:36,879 --> 00:37:39,609
Tomoe! Get inside!
458
00:37:42,383 --> 00:37:44,851
Perhaps that's enough?
459
00:37:45,619 --> 00:37:47,018
who are you?!
460
00:37:53,959 --> 00:37:59,158
I am Seibei Iguchi
friend to Iinuma
461
00:37:59,497 --> 00:38:03,661
Perhaps I could accept
your challenge in his name?
462
00:38:03,901 --> 00:38:07,462
But here we are in the town
463
00:38:08,071 --> 00:38:10,767
And you are drunk
464
00:38:12,708 --> 00:38:18,271
Let's settle this another time
when the alcohol has worn off
465
00:38:24,017 --> 00:38:28,852
If you've put yourself forward
this way...
466
00:38:29,121 --> 00:38:31,351
...you must know how to fight
467
00:38:31,590 --> 00:38:34,855
I make no such claim
468
00:38:35,126 --> 00:38:39,187
Fine. we fight tomorrow
469
00:38:40,463 --> 00:38:42,090
Tomorrow?
470
00:38:42,298 --> 00:38:49,830
By the river behind Hannyaji
Temple, at the 8th hour?
471
00:38:51,339 --> 00:38:52,704
Done
472
00:38:53,407 --> 00:38:57,605
Behind Hannyaji, 8th hour
473
00:38:59,212 --> 00:39:00,645
See you
474
00:39:13,223 --> 00:39:17,319
Seibei, he's serious!
475
00:39:17,593 --> 00:39:19,390
Are you?
476
00:39:19,662 --> 00:39:21,755
I had no choice
477
00:39:21,830 --> 00:39:23,923
He's good with a sword
478
00:39:24,932 --> 00:39:27,230
It'll work out
479
00:39:27,535 --> 00:39:29,594
I'll say good night
480
00:39:29,803 --> 00:39:34,467
Don't tell Tomoe about this
481
00:39:37,943 --> 00:39:43,279
wait!
482
00:39:43,548 --> 00:39:46,745
what if you kill him?
The Clan forbids dueling
483
00:39:47,618 --> 00:39:50,314
I'll think of something
484
00:39:51,321 --> 00:39:52,618
Good night
485
00:40:10,036 --> 00:40:11,663
Naota...
486
00:40:50,133 --> 00:40:51,828
we're going
487
00:40:54,737 --> 00:40:55,795
Ito!
488
00:41:05,746 --> 00:41:11,184
Yu Tzu said: Harmony is the
greatest beneficence of the rites
489
00:41:11,250 --> 00:41:15,118
Good morning
490
00:41:23,060 --> 00:41:25,358
Sit down!
491
00:41:36,137 --> 00:41:37,866
I'm leaving
492
00:42:29,880 --> 00:42:33,816
This is no good. I'm slow
493
00:43:05,910 --> 00:43:08,344
You think you can take me?
494
00:43:08,579 --> 00:43:09,671
Damn right!
495
00:43:10,113 --> 00:43:13,048
Then get ready
496
00:43:16,752 --> 00:43:18,379
He's afraid!
497
00:43:23,290 --> 00:43:25,884
Hold it!
498
00:43:26,993 --> 00:43:30,895
I said last night
I'd take your place!
499
00:43:31,130 --> 00:43:31,892
I should do this
500
00:43:32,131 --> 00:43:33,928
You're no match for him
Go over there and watch
501
00:43:37,935 --> 00:43:42,429
I'm sorry I'm late, Squire Koda
I will be your opponent
502
00:43:43,607 --> 00:43:46,098
what's that stick?
503
00:43:46,342 --> 00:43:50,369
My school of swordfighting
uses this for practice
504
00:43:51,013 --> 00:43:55,177
Do you mock me?
Draw your sword!
505
00:43:55,416 --> 00:43:59,819
A sword might kill
This stick will not
506
00:44:00,087 --> 00:44:03,022
It will break bones at worst
507
00:44:04,523 --> 00:44:10,018
I won't take this from a samurai
of your rank! I'll cut you down!
508
00:44:37,116 --> 00:44:39,676
watch for the draw-and-slash!
509
00:44:44,656 --> 00:44:48,592
You can still apologize
510
00:44:48,826 --> 00:44:50,885
The apology is yours to make
511
00:45:37,265 --> 00:45:40,132
with a real sword, you'd be dead
512
00:45:54,679 --> 00:45:56,647
Do you apologize?
513
00:45:58,015 --> 00:46:01,507
Or do you continue?
514
00:46:25,470 --> 00:46:28,871
Splash some water on him
That'll bring him to
515
00:46:29,340 --> 00:46:31,740
Come on, Iinuma
516
00:46:37,313 --> 00:46:39,304
You're all right?
517
00:46:40,816 --> 00:46:44,149
Don't tell Miss Tomoe
about this
518
00:46:44,419 --> 00:46:47,650
Or anyone else, either
519
00:46:47,855 --> 00:46:50,289
Those men will talk
520
00:46:51,525 --> 00:46:54,221
No. A whipped dog
doesn't bark
521
00:47:19,948 --> 00:47:21,939
Is that soy sauce? Over here
522
00:47:54,842 --> 00:48:00,007
Excuse me for interrupting. I am
Zenemon Yogo, Master of the watch
523
00:48:00,247 --> 00:48:01,578
I know that
524
00:48:02,415 --> 00:48:07,375
Are you the 'Twilight Seibei'
who thrashed Toyotaro Koda...
525
00:48:07,819 --> 00:48:12,654
...and left him with
a great big lump on his head?
526
00:48:12,890 --> 00:48:18,920
I didn't really 'thrash' him
527
00:48:19,195 --> 00:48:22,722
He asked for a match, and my
sword caught him on the head
528
00:48:23,832 --> 00:48:26,926
Koda is a drinking companion
of mine
529
00:48:27,235 --> 00:48:31,137
The other day...
530
00:48:31,739 --> 00:48:38,474
...he came crying to me, asking
if I would take revenge for him
531
00:48:42,347 --> 00:48:46,147
That's the kind of man he is
532
00:48:46,384 --> 00:48:52,345
But it seems you can fight
what school are you?
533
00:48:52,956 --> 00:48:58,019
Many years ago I trained
under Toda-Sensei
534
00:48:59,728 --> 00:49:02,526
So you're a disciple
of Jinsai Toda?
535
00:49:04,165 --> 00:49:08,829
I merely attended his dojo
536
00:49:09,234 --> 00:49:13,000
Perhaps we could
try a match one day
537
00:49:13,238 --> 00:49:20,974
I'd be no match for you
I'm afraid. If you'll excuse me...
538
00:49:33,888 --> 00:49:37,949
I wish I wasn't getting old
I can't read once the sun sets
539
00:49:38,258 --> 00:49:44,424
First your teeth go
then it's your eyes
540
00:49:44,696 --> 00:49:47,256
And how's number three?
541
00:49:47,532 --> 00:49:50,057
That went long ago!
542
00:49:53,503 --> 00:49:57,462
That's it for today, everyone
543
00:50:12,752 --> 00:50:15,118
I'll be going
544
00:50:18,157 --> 00:50:19,590
Excuse me
545
00:50:24,862 --> 00:50:27,831
Sir Twilight's gone?
546
00:50:28,098 --> 00:50:30,726
Didn't you hear?
547
00:50:32,435 --> 00:50:37,702
The other day 'Sir Twilight' fought
the son of Captain Koda
548
00:50:37,906 --> 00:50:40,898
A fight? And what happened?
549
00:50:41,208 --> 00:50:44,336
wood against steel
550
00:50:44,578 --> 00:50:47,376
Sir Twilight went bang!
Knocked him senseless
551
00:50:47,614 --> 00:50:48,774
He did?
552
00:50:49,115 --> 00:50:51,777
I always thought he was strange
553
00:50:52,051 --> 00:50:55,885
I never thought
he was a fighter, though
554
00:50:56,187 --> 00:51:00,123
Maybe we shouldn't
be calling him 'Sir Twilight'
555
00:51:00,424 --> 00:51:02,119
You think he knows?
556
00:51:02,392 --> 00:51:04,758
Sure he does
557
00:51:19,873 --> 00:51:22,137
Fumi! It's raining!
558
00:51:30,749 --> 00:51:33,479
It's raining!
Is the laundry in?
559
00:51:33,684 --> 00:51:34,708
Yes!
560
00:51:44,059 --> 00:51:46,152
welcome home
561
00:51:46,394 --> 00:51:50,558
Miss Tomoe was here
She left you this letter
562
00:51:53,533 --> 00:51:57,833
She's got even nicer writing
than the schoolmaster
563
00:52:00,639 --> 00:52:01,571
Let me!
564
00:52:01,807 --> 00:52:03,206
No!
565
00:52:05,043 --> 00:52:10,948
I have finally learned what happened
from my elder brother
566
00:52:11,548 --> 00:52:16,781
I must apologize
for all the trouble...
567
00:52:17,052 --> 00:52:19,577
...I have caused you
568
00:52:19,821 --> 00:52:24,053
I am, however, delighted
569
00:52:26,727 --> 00:52:31,755
I very much want to see you
and thank you in person
570
00:52:32,331 --> 00:52:38,964
Today I intruded upon you and
with your daughters...
571
00:52:39,237 --> 00:52:41,728
...cleaned your house
and did your laundry
572
00:52:42,006 --> 00:52:45,464
Please do not scold your daughters
for allowing me in
573
00:52:46,142 --> 00:52:54,413
I would like in the future
to be of what use I can.
574
00:52:54,650 --> 00:52:55,708
written in haste
575
00:52:55,950 --> 00:53:02,719
To: Seibei Iguchi, Esq.
From: Tomoe
576
00:53:09,695 --> 00:53:15,361
Tomoe started coming
every second day or so
577
00:53:15,599 --> 00:53:20,559
The two of us looked forward
to coming home from school
578
00:53:20,904 --> 00:53:21,871
we're back!
579
00:53:22,138 --> 00:53:24,663
Hello!
580
00:53:26,608 --> 00:53:30,977
You know what the teacher
did today? He farted out loud!
581
00:53:39,052 --> 00:53:43,955
She cleaned with us
did laundry with us...
582
00:53:44,256 --> 00:53:47,919
...and taught us to cook
583
00:53:51,629 --> 00:53:56,157
On rainy days we'd practice
calligraphy and sewing
584
00:53:56,299 --> 00:53:59,666
And she'd tell us all kinds
of stories, the like of which...
585
00:54:00,035 --> 00:54:03,971
...we'd never heard before
586
00:54:04,039 --> 00:54:05,563
Finished
587
00:54:08,742 --> 00:54:11,905
Bring this line over
588
00:54:12,112 --> 00:54:13,272
Finished!
589
00:54:13,813 --> 00:54:16,043
That's good, Ito!
590
00:54:16,949 --> 00:54:19,577
Hey! Stop it!
591
00:54:20,452 --> 00:54:24,320
Ito! write on
your own paper, all right?
592
00:54:24,588 --> 00:54:25,555
No!
593
00:54:37,132 --> 00:54:42,126
Don't you look nice!
594
00:54:42,436 --> 00:54:46,372
How much fun it was to go off
to a festival in kimonos...
595
00:54:46,740 --> 00:54:48,901
...she had made us
596
00:55:06,789 --> 00:55:09,849
Shoo! Go away!
597
00:56:04,669 --> 00:56:09,129
Samurai then were strictly
forbidden to attend the festivals...
598
00:56:09,473 --> 00:56:14,137
...of the peasants
and townsfolk...
599
00:56:14,377 --> 00:56:18,177
...but Tomoe cared not a whit
600
00:56:18,881 --> 00:56:21,179
I remember well what
she said:
601
00:56:21,449 --> 00:56:28,912
It was because of the peasants
that we lived as samurai
602
00:57:01,315 --> 00:57:05,376
why are you catching them all?
we're using the same bait!
603
00:57:05,652 --> 00:57:11,648
You're trying too hard
The fish sense it
604
00:57:12,090 --> 00:57:16,527
Your shoulders are too stiff
It's like swordfighting
605
00:57:16,794 --> 00:57:19,160
Aw, stop lecturing!
606
00:57:19,730 --> 00:57:21,960
Show me your rod
607
00:57:26,167 --> 00:57:29,330
This hook's too big!
608
00:57:34,707 --> 00:57:35,935
Seibei...
609
00:57:37,176 --> 00:57:39,371
...I want to talk to you
610
00:57:40,645 --> 00:57:44,547
It's about Tomoe
611
00:57:44,982 --> 00:57:48,918
She's had a few proposals
612
00:57:49,819 --> 00:57:56,748
She's beautiful and talented
There's not many like her in our clan
613
00:57:57,726 --> 00:57:59,990
Any good ones?
614
00:58:00,261 --> 00:58:04,163
She won't say yes
and I can't pressure her
615
00:58:04,398 --> 00:58:09,301
I asked her, half in jest
if she'd like to marry you
616
00:58:09,568 --> 00:58:11,001
You what?!
617
00:58:11,870 --> 00:58:16,671
we may be old friends
but that isn't funny!
618
00:58:16,908 --> 00:58:19,706
She didn't take it as a joke
619
00:58:20,944 --> 00:58:25,005
She said she wouldn't mind...
620
00:58:25,248 --> 00:58:27,682
...and turned all red
621
00:58:32,420 --> 00:58:37,881
That's enough!
You're both making fun of me!
622
00:58:40,160 --> 00:58:42,594
You dolt!
623
00:58:43,296 --> 00:58:45,230
She was serious
624
00:58:45,431 --> 00:58:46,591
Stop it
625
00:58:51,002 --> 00:58:52,902
Listen...
626
00:58:53,804 --> 00:59:00,676
...I've already put her through hell
marrying her to Koda
627
00:59:02,878 --> 00:59:09,044
If it's all right with you
I'd like to make that up to her
628
00:59:10,184 --> 00:59:15,417
It's a bit sudden...
629
00:59:20,893 --> 00:59:26,354
I don't need an answer now
but I will within two or three days
630
00:59:28,165 --> 00:59:31,623
I might have to go to Edo
631
00:59:32,035 --> 00:59:35,129
You've been really busy lately
what's going on?
632
00:59:35,505 --> 00:59:37,939
You probably haven't heard
633
00:59:39,541 --> 00:59:45,643
A month ago...
634
00:59:45,993 --> 00:59:48,043
...His Lordship's dead
635
00:59:48,843 --> 00:59:50,174
He is?
636
00:59:51,478 --> 00:59:55,039
why have they kept that
from us?
637
00:59:55,248 --> 00:59:59,548
They're not agreed on
who's going to succeed him
638
01:00:01,653 --> 01:00:07,091
The Castle warden, Lord Hori
has asked the Shogun...
639
01:00:07,391 --> 01:00:13,125
...for permission to adopt
His Lordship's third boy, Tadaatsu...
640
01:00:13,429 --> 01:00:16,762
...and seize control himself
641
01:00:16,999 --> 01:00:20,366
If that happens the clan will split
and blood will wash away blood
642
01:00:20,668 --> 01:00:24,968
I might not come through this
unscathed myself
643
01:00:26,740 --> 01:00:33,475
So if you could give me an answer
before I leave for Edo
644
01:00:35,947 --> 01:00:37,414
All right
645
01:00:39,517 --> 01:00:41,144
I'll answer you
646
01:00:44,420 --> 01:00:49,915
I'm very grateful to Tomoe for
all she's done for my daughters...
647
01:00:51,393 --> 01:00:56,421
...all the cooking and sewing
and everything else
648
01:00:56,664 --> 01:01:03,593
It's like a dream come true
649
01:01:05,104 --> 01:01:06,594
However...
650
01:01:08,307 --> 01:01:14,735
...having her come to my house
as my wife is something else again
651
01:01:18,481 --> 01:01:24,113
She's a daughter of the Iinumas
a 400-koku family
652
01:01:24,453 --> 01:01:29,686
She doesn't know what life is like
for a 50-koku petty samurai
653
01:01:30,758 --> 01:01:35,320
Are you sure you're not
under-estimating her?
654
01:01:35,562 --> 01:01:38,827
She's very much her own woman
655
01:01:39,065 --> 01:01:42,899
It'd be fine at the start
656
01:01:43,168 --> 01:01:48,265
But when it sunk in that 50-koku
would be her life forever...
657
01:01:48,606 --> 01:01:53,202
...she'd be sorry
658
01:01:54,511 --> 01:01:57,139
My late wife was
659
01:01:59,982 --> 01:02:03,645
Hers was a 150-koku family
660
01:02:03,918 --> 01:02:08,048
She never got used to
the fall in status
661
01:02:09,089 --> 01:02:11,887
Rise in the world, she told me
or my family will grieve
662
01:02:12,325 --> 01:02:16,728
She said that all the time
after she got sick
663
01:02:17,763 --> 01:02:29,868
I don't want to put Tomoe
through that torment
664
01:02:33,976 --> 01:02:37,707
Tomoe's not 15 or 16
665
01:02:38,246 --> 01:02:43,343
I'm sure she'd thought about
what she said
666
01:02:43,583 --> 01:02:44,914
No more
667
01:02:47,086 --> 01:02:49,316
Let's forget this
668
01:02:53,791 --> 01:02:55,486
Let's try up there
669
01:02:58,562 --> 01:03:01,929
It's a girl!
670
01:03:08,137 --> 01:03:10,002
what a stink!
671
01:03:17,344 --> 01:03:20,472
Rise to Lord Buddha
672
01:03:21,314 --> 01:03:25,478
Eat your fill in heaven!
673
01:03:25,784 --> 01:03:27,445
Let's call it a day
674
01:03:35,759 --> 01:03:37,522
From that day forward
Miss Tomoe stopped coming...
675
01:03:37,760 --> 01:03:43,164
...to our house
676
01:03:44,799 --> 01:03:47,199
Make way!
677
01:03:47,568 --> 01:03:49,058
Stand aside!
678
01:03:49,303 --> 01:03:50,861
Turning left!
679
01:04:01,112 --> 01:04:03,876
The warden has returned!
680
01:04:24,498 --> 01:04:26,261
Go!
681
01:04:35,774 --> 01:04:37,639
what's that?!
682
01:04:37,875 --> 01:04:40,639
It's the alarm!
683
01:04:48,217 --> 01:04:50,845
Stop what you're doing and listen
684
01:04:51,720 --> 01:04:55,884
I have important news
from Lord Hori, Castle warden...
685
01:04:56,157 --> 01:04:58,557
...who returned
this morning from Edo
686
01:04:59,493 --> 01:05:05,762
The 12th head of the Unasaka Clan
Lord Tadatomo, died of measles...
687
01:05:06,065 --> 01:05:08,124
...at the beginning of this month
688
01:05:08,433 --> 01:05:10,993
He was 32 years old
689
01:05:13,971 --> 01:05:19,409
He was a good and wise ruler
intelligent and tolerant...
690
01:05:19,709 --> 01:05:22,200
...a true hero
691
01:05:23,245 --> 01:05:27,045
Only last spring we had
the honor of meeting him...
692
01:05:27,315 --> 01:05:31,911
...and having him speak to us
693
01:05:32,253 --> 01:05:36,417
Iguchi, you haven't
forgotten that, I'm sure
694
01:05:39,091 --> 01:05:43,084
what a fine and gentle man
he was!
695
01:05:45,929 --> 01:05:49,262
Senior retainers will
remain in the castle
696
01:05:49,665 --> 01:05:55,535
The rest of you are to leave and pray
for the repose of His Lordship's soul
697
01:06:08,547 --> 01:06:10,742
This could mean open war!
698
01:06:11,416 --> 01:06:17,377
I doubt that...
699
01:06:17,621 --> 01:06:20,351
...but Lord Hori's sure to go after
His Lordships reformers
700
01:06:20,957 --> 01:06:22,481
Dispositions'?
701
01:06:22,692 --> 01:06:23,886
Yes
702
01:06:24,427 --> 01:06:27,225
which side is
our Commissioner on?
703
01:06:27,496 --> 01:06:30,363
The reformers
or the Hori faction?
704
01:06:30,765 --> 01:06:35,293
He'll be with the mainstream
705
01:06:35,569 --> 01:06:39,061
Just like me
706
01:06:42,641 --> 01:06:48,602
while there were fearsome rumors
that the Castle was preparing for war...
707
01:06:48,980 --> 01:06:53,383
...it didn't seem to involve
petty samurai like my father
708
01:07:29,379 --> 01:07:30,812
All right?
709
01:07:32,582 --> 01:07:40,921
we wanted to ask Father
why Miss Tomoe no longer came...
710
01:07:41,522 --> 01:07:44,980
...but for some reason
we couldn't
711
01:07:45,992 --> 01:07:50,361
This was because even in
our children's hearts...
712
01:07:50,963 --> 01:07:54,956
...we knew something
had happened between them
713
01:07:58,970 --> 01:08:02,667
Squire Iguchi!
714
01:08:04,774 --> 01:08:10,007
I'm sorry you've come for nothing
My husband isn't back from Edo
715
01:08:10,446 --> 01:08:14,109
I expect him in a day or two
716
01:08:16,217 --> 01:08:20,813
Has he written anything about
what's happening in Edo?
717
01:08:21,123 --> 01:08:22,454
No
718
01:08:22,691 --> 01:08:27,355
There was a letter yesterday...
719
01:08:27,595 --> 01:08:32,328
...but all he talked about was what
he wants to eat when he gets home
720
01:08:32,566 --> 01:08:34,193
That's good
721
01:08:35,335 --> 01:08:40,898
I'm sure you know
they're handing down dispositions
722
01:08:41,206 --> 01:08:45,233
Some people have even been
ordered to commit suicide
723
01:08:45,443 --> 01:08:50,938
I was worried about what
might have happened to Iinuma
724
01:08:51,214 --> 01:08:55,514
I'm happy to hear he's all right
725
01:08:55,951 --> 01:08:59,614
Give him my regards
when he gets home
726
01:08:59,988 --> 01:09:03,185
You came just for that?
727
01:09:03,423 --> 01:09:04,583
Yes
728
01:09:04,891 --> 01:09:07,382
Good day
729
01:09:11,263 --> 01:09:13,697
It was very kind of you
730
01:09:23,406 --> 01:09:24,839
Carry on
731
01:09:27,076 --> 01:09:28,668
where's Squire Iguchi?
732
01:09:28,911 --> 01:09:31,903
He went away
733
01:09:33,414 --> 01:09:35,348
where are you going?
734
01:09:35,550 --> 01:09:38,849
Squire Iguchi may still be
close by
735
01:09:39,052 --> 01:09:41,520
why do you want to see him?
736
01:09:42,154 --> 01:09:45,954
No reason in particular
737
01:09:46,191 --> 01:09:49,558
I haven't seen him for a while
I'd like to say hello
738
01:09:49,761 --> 01:09:50,887
wait!
739
01:09:57,734 --> 01:09:59,599
Tomoe...
740
01:09:59,836 --> 01:10:03,033
...it is unseemly for
a young woman to be seen talking...
741
01:10:03,304 --> 01:10:06,740
...with some samurai on the street
742
01:10:07,074 --> 01:10:10,475
And you are a returned bride
with a proposal being discussed
743
01:10:10,777 --> 01:10:18,980
You shouldn't be doing that
in broad daylight with people around
744
01:10:19,451 --> 01:10:24,150
I've been meaning to tell you that
for a long time now
745
01:10:25,489 --> 01:10:30,950
what's wrong with a girl
talking to a samurai?
746
01:10:32,228 --> 01:10:35,254
Are you questioning
your elder brother's wife?
747
01:10:35,531 --> 01:10:37,260
Shouldn't I?
748
01:10:37,632 --> 01:10:39,122
You should not
749
01:10:40,034 --> 01:10:44,903
A young women
does not question her elders
750
01:11:05,587 --> 01:11:10,456
with 60 from last month
that comes to 550 mon
751
01:11:11,693 --> 01:11:13,854
Could I have a receipt?
752
01:11:18,598 --> 01:11:24,195
You know the bath fee went up
to seven mon last month
753
01:11:24,436 --> 01:11:28,998
Prices are going up everywhere
754
01:11:29,273 --> 01:11:32,265
Could you pay more
for these cages?
755
01:11:33,043 --> 01:11:34,601
with things as unsettled
as they are...
756
01:11:34,878 --> 01:11:39,110
...no one's buying insect cages
757
01:11:39,382 --> 01:11:44,012
Could you ask your boss
for me?
758
01:11:44,253 --> 01:11:47,120
well, I'll ask
759
01:11:47,388 --> 01:11:49,913
I take this work
as seriously as my duties
760
01:11:50,123 --> 01:11:52,023
I understand that
761
01:11:52,225 --> 01:11:54,659
If you'll excuse me
762
01:11:57,730 --> 01:11:59,493
Come on
763
01:12:19,147 --> 01:12:21,581
we're not thieves
764
01:12:21,782 --> 01:12:27,550
we're just picking up some
insect cages from Squire Iguchi.
765
01:12:28,187 --> 01:12:31,884
Is he doing piece-work?
766
01:12:45,000 --> 01:12:46,627
Hello!
767
01:12:47,003 --> 01:12:48,231
Hello!
768
01:12:48,336 --> 01:12:52,170
who is it?
769
01:12:52,440 --> 01:12:55,432
Commissioner Kusaka
770
01:13:02,214 --> 01:13:04,705
It's very late, I know
771
01:13:04,950 --> 01:13:09,319
I'd like you to accompany me
to Lord Hori's quarters
772
01:13:09,587 --> 01:13:12,454
Yes, sir
773
01:13:14,391 --> 01:13:18,088
They said you don't need
full formal dress
774
01:13:18,327 --> 01:13:20,420
Just a hakama skirt
775
01:13:36,542 --> 01:13:40,808
So you're Iguchi's girl?
How old are you?
776
01:13:41,579 --> 01:13:42,876
Five
777
01:13:44,748 --> 01:13:47,080
You're a sweetheart
778
01:13:51,787 --> 01:13:53,755
I'm ready
779
01:14:02,932 --> 01:14:06,527
Kayano... you all get to bed
780
01:14:11,405 --> 01:14:13,032
Let's sleep
781
01:14:33,089 --> 01:14:35,614
Seibei Iguchi
of the Castle Stores...
782
01:14:35,691 --> 01:14:37,352
That'll do
783
01:14:38,127 --> 01:14:41,528
Iguchi, come over here
784
01:14:53,139 --> 01:14:58,873
we called you here this late because
an awkward situation has arisen
785
01:14:59,577 --> 01:15:03,809
You know there was a revolt
among our retainers in Edo?
786
01:15:04,581 --> 01:15:05,707
Yes, sir
787
01:15:07,250 --> 01:15:11,050
Fortunately no word of this
reached the Shogun
788
01:15:11,353 --> 01:15:15,915
His Lordship ordered Shima Hasegawa
and his faction to commit suicide
789
01:15:16,157 --> 01:15:21,060
But one of Lord Hasegawa's men
Zenemon Yogo, Master of the watch...
790
01:15:21,328 --> 01:15:28,757
...says he was merely following
the orders of his superior...
791
01:15:28,967 --> 01:15:31,697
...asks why he should be punished
and refuses to commit suicide
792
01:15:32,070 --> 01:15:40,341
If you want me dead
come and kill me,' he says!
793
01:15:40,610 --> 01:15:46,276
And with these disgraceful words
has barricaded himself in his house
794
01:15:47,649 --> 01:15:53,451
This evening we sent our Master
of Foot, Genba Hattori, against him
795
01:15:53,687 --> 01:15:57,589
Zenemon Yogo! I come
at the order of the clan!
796
01:16:01,894 --> 01:16:05,227
But he died himself
797
01:16:15,304 --> 01:16:19,070
He's a 'one-sword' fighter
798
01:16:19,307 --> 01:16:22,572
No one in the clan
is his match
799
01:16:23,411 --> 01:16:26,744
we were talking about who
to send against him...
800
01:16:27,047 --> 01:16:31,143
...and your name came up
801
01:16:32,185 --> 01:16:35,677
Iguchi, raise your head
802
01:16:39,157 --> 01:16:42,923
You're a 'short-sword' fighter
of the Toda school?
803
01:16:44,094 --> 01:16:46,392
It's been years
since Toda-Sensei taught me
804
01:16:46,629 --> 01:16:52,067
I merely attended his dojo
805
01:16:52,467 --> 01:16:56,164
we don't have time
for modesty
806
01:16:56,404 --> 01:17:01,865
we've learned that you were
an instructor at his dojo
807
01:17:02,075 --> 01:17:05,943
He must be beaten inside his house
The short sword will help there
808
01:17:06,211 --> 01:17:13,481
That is another reason
we have chosen you
809
01:17:13,718 --> 01:17:19,384
Kill Zenemon Yogo
by twilight tomorrow
810
01:17:20,223 --> 01:17:24,091
That is an order from
the clan's Senior Retainer
811
01:17:29,564 --> 01:17:33,330
Kusaka... what's this man's stipend?
812
01:17:33,600 --> 01:17:35,192
50 koku
813
01:17:35,435 --> 01:17:39,235
20 koku bespoken
for a net of 30
814
01:17:39,571 --> 01:17:44,668
That must be hard, with two young
daughters and an aged mother
815
01:17:45,276 --> 01:17:49,178
Bring us the head
of Zenemon Yogo...
816
01:17:49,346 --> 01:17:51,678
...and life will be easier
817
01:17:51,881 --> 01:17:55,180
Do you accept?
818
01:17:58,120 --> 01:18:00,179
Answer him
819
01:18:01,155 --> 01:18:04,215
This is an honor
820
01:18:05,592 --> 01:18:07,253
You shut up!
821
01:18:07,861 --> 01:18:09,294
well?
822
01:18:13,465 --> 01:18:16,229
By your leave...
823
01:18:21,772 --> 01:18:28,109
I am ashamed to say that
over many years of hardship...
824
01:18:28,377 --> 01:18:33,644
...with two daughters, a sick wife
and an aged mother...
825
01:18:33,915 --> 01:18:39,581
...I have lost the desire
to wield a sword
826
01:18:43,156 --> 01:18:49,994
A serious fight
the killing of a man...
827
01:18:50,061 --> 01:18:57,297
...requires animal ferocity and
calm disregard for one's own life
828
01:18:57,367 --> 01:19:02,703
I have neither of those
within me now
829
01:19:03,338 --> 01:19:09,902
Perhaps in a month...
830
01:19:10,244 --> 01:19:13,372
...alone with the beasts in the hills
I could get them back
831
01:19:13,446 --> 01:19:21,876
But tomorrow, I am afraid
is completely impossible
832
01:19:23,255 --> 01:19:28,591
I ask that you extend
the honor of this commission...
833
01:19:29,559 --> 01:19:32,528
...to another man
834
01:19:35,197 --> 01:19:38,997
what complete
and utter nonsense!
835
01:19:39,901 --> 01:19:45,464
we are not here for foolishness
from a petty samurai!
836
01:19:46,072 --> 01:19:49,974
Your clan orders you
to kill Yogo
837
01:19:50,476 --> 01:19:52,706
Do you understand that?!
838
01:19:53,245 --> 01:19:56,976
The Clan's orders are
His Lordship's orders
839
01:19:57,182 --> 01:20:00,310
The very thought of refusal
is an offense!
840
01:20:00,851 --> 01:20:05,652
You are relieved of your post!
You are expelled from the clan!
841
01:20:05,888 --> 01:20:08,083
Please, warden...
842
01:20:09,091 --> 01:20:14,290
what do you say, Iguchi?
Do you accept?
843
01:20:14,529 --> 01:20:15,791
Of course he does!
844
01:20:16,030 --> 01:20:18,123
Don't you!
845
01:20:19,466 --> 01:20:24,233
May I request
an evening or two...
846
01:20:24,503 --> 01:20:27,700
...in which to give my answer?
847
01:20:27,939 --> 01:20:29,201
You may not!!
848
01:20:30,374 --> 01:20:33,070
You will answer now!
849
01:21:03,034 --> 01:21:05,195
I obey
850
01:21:08,038 --> 01:21:10,973
I accept the commission...
851
01:21:13,209 --> 01:21:16,576
...to kill Zenemon Yogo
852
01:21:18,146 --> 01:21:20,114
well said!
853
01:21:20,381 --> 01:21:23,873
An officer will call
at the hour of the snake
854
01:21:24,118 --> 01:21:27,315
Have your preparations made
855
01:21:28,487 --> 01:21:30,751
withdraw
856
01:21:54,441 --> 01:21:59,936
Iguchi...
857
01:22:00,246 --> 01:22:02,441
Don't worry. who's Zenemon
Yogo anyway?
858
01:22:02,715 --> 01:22:05,582
You're sure to win
859
01:22:05,818 --> 01:22:09,276
I have decided exactly that
860
01:22:09,588 --> 01:22:10,577
Good
861
01:22:10,788 --> 01:22:15,157
One should, however
always prepare for the worst
862
01:22:16,459 --> 01:22:20,691
That's true. The worst
can always happen
863
01:22:20,932 --> 01:22:26,029
In that event, Commissioner
this will be farewell
864
01:22:29,739 --> 01:22:33,732
Thank you for everything
you've done for me
865
01:22:35,343 --> 01:22:40,940
Please convey my regards
to my colleagues in Stores
866
01:22:41,915 --> 01:22:43,542
I understand. And, uh...
867
01:22:43,850 --> 01:22:50,119
...I'll take responsibility for
those you leave behind
868
01:22:50,389 --> 01:22:55,691
I'll see they are looked after
869
01:22:57,494 --> 01:23:00,622
That's a relief to hear
870
01:23:02,865 --> 01:23:06,426
All the best to you
871
01:24:59,359 --> 01:25:05,423
A strange noise made me
open my eyes
872
01:25:05,564 --> 01:25:11,901
Looking for the sound, I saw
my father sharpening his sword
873
01:25:12,503 --> 01:25:18,499
He looked so strange it was hard
to believe he was my father
874
01:25:21,310 --> 01:25:27,647
I still remember clearly
how he looked that night
875
01:27:04,125 --> 01:27:07,822
The Heart Sutra:
876
01:27:11,097 --> 01:27:15,727
The bodhisattva clearly saw
the emptiness of the five states...
877
01:27:15,802 --> 01:27:23,208
...thus relieving misfortune and pain
878
01:27:23,474 --> 01:27:27,877
Form is only emptiness
emptiness only form...
879
01:27:32,581 --> 01:27:34,378
we're going
880
01:27:35,450 --> 01:27:36,644
Kayano!
881
01:27:41,221 --> 01:27:45,681
The Master said: A man cunning
of word and smiling of face...
882
01:27:45,925 --> 01:27:50,885
...is rarely benevolent
Tseng Tzu said: Each day...
883
01:28:02,705 --> 01:28:05,230
Naota, do something for me
884
01:28:05,507 --> 01:28:06,439
Yup
885
01:28:06,942 --> 01:28:12,471
You know Miss Tomoe's house
in Nishikicho, don't you?
886
01:28:12,747 --> 01:28:13,941
Yup
887
01:28:14,281 --> 01:28:18,149
Go there, and speak to
Miss Tomoe
888
01:28:18,751 --> 01:28:21,379
Now, this is important
889
01:28:21,788 --> 01:28:25,121
You have to see
Miss Tomoe herself
890
01:28:25,457 --> 01:28:27,391
And then say...
891
01:28:28,359 --> 01:28:33,319
...'I'm really very sorry, but
could you come right away?
892
01:28:33,563 --> 01:28:37,795
I'll explain why
when you get here.'
893
01:28:38,267 --> 01:28:39,825
All right?
894
01:28:41,203 --> 01:28:43,694
I'm really very sorry...
895
01:28:45,840 --> 01:28:49,742
...but could you come
right away?
896
01:28:49,976 --> 01:28:51,000
I'll explain why...
897
01:28:51,311 --> 01:28:53,142
Uh, I'll explain why...
898
01:28:53,379 --> 01:28:56,473
I'll explain why
when you get here
899
01:28:57,883 --> 01:29:01,011
when you get here
900
01:29:01,219 --> 01:29:03,813
That's fine. Hurry
901
01:29:15,630 --> 01:29:19,396
Look where she laid her egg!
902
01:29:22,869 --> 01:29:26,771
Could you come...
903
01:29:27,607 --> 01:29:31,475
I'll explain why
when you get here
904
01:29:34,745 --> 01:29:37,646
Whatever's the matter
at this hour?
905
01:29:39,383 --> 01:29:43,285
I'm really very sorry...
906
01:29:43,719 --> 01:29:47,485
...but could you come
right away?
907
01:29:47,723 --> 01:29:52,786
when you get here... uh...
908
01:29:53,227 --> 01:29:55,218
He'll explain why?
909
01:29:55,696 --> 01:29:59,462
Squire Seibei sent you
to tell me that?
910
01:29:59,765 --> 01:30:02,825
All right. I'll get ready
911
01:30:31,024 --> 01:30:34,824
I didn't think you'd come
912
01:30:52,507 --> 01:30:57,604
The clan has ordered me
to go and fight...
913
01:30:57,912 --> 01:31:00,710
...another retainer
914
01:31:03,216 --> 01:31:08,779
I'm going out under orders
so I must be properly dressed...
915
01:31:09,021 --> 01:31:12,388
...and I can't do my hair alone
916
01:31:12,924 --> 01:31:16,382
I'm in a bind
so I asked you to come
917
01:31:18,161 --> 01:31:23,599
If you can spare the time
could you help me?
918
01:31:23,833 --> 01:31:26,427
when do you have to go?
919
01:31:26,935 --> 01:31:28,994
The hour of the snake
920
01:31:29,237 --> 01:31:32,172
There's not much time
921
01:31:33,206 --> 01:31:34,571
where's your kimono?
922
01:31:34,841 --> 01:31:37,401
It's laid out over there
923
01:31:40,979 --> 01:31:43,447
Naota, boil some water
924
01:32:23,480 --> 01:32:25,812
who's coming for you?
925
01:32:26,149 --> 01:32:28,174
A clan officer
926
01:32:30,052 --> 01:32:34,614
Naota, will you wait
out by the gate?
927
01:32:37,057 --> 01:32:41,756
Sit down. I'll comb your hair
928
01:33:00,779 --> 01:33:03,304
May I ask why...
929
01:33:06,084 --> 01:33:10,544
...you're going out to fight?
930
01:33:14,090 --> 01:33:16,957
I can't refuse a clan order
931
01:33:19,261 --> 01:33:26,133
Petty I may be
but I'm still a samurai
932
01:33:47,116 --> 01:33:53,646
Bamboo baskets, hampers!
933
01:33:53,888 --> 01:33:59,622
Bamboo baskets, hampers!
934
01:35:08,414 --> 01:35:14,978
Your elder brother...
935
01:35:15,220 --> 01:35:19,213
...asked if I would
take you as my wife
936
01:35:20,257 --> 01:35:22,555
I refused
937
01:35:23,693 --> 01:35:27,094
Did you know that?
938
01:35:29,031 --> 01:35:31,158
Yes, I did
939
01:35:32,934 --> 01:35:34,367
But...
940
01:35:36,270 --> 01:35:38,795
But since that day...
941
01:35:39,773 --> 01:35:43,231
...when I told him no...
942
01:35:43,809 --> 01:35:49,008
...I've started thinking
about you
943
01:35:55,485 --> 01:36:00,548
Now I think of it
ever since we were small...
944
01:36:03,225 --> 01:36:07,719
...and I made dolls
to give you...
945
01:36:07,962 --> 01:36:14,834
...I always dreamed one day
you'd come to me as my wife
946
01:36:16,635 --> 01:36:24,167
That dream stayed with me
even after I got married...
947
01:36:24,442 --> 01:36:29,072
...and you married Koda
948
01:36:29,479 --> 01:36:34,781
It's never faded
949
01:36:39,954 --> 01:36:44,357
I'm going out now
to fight to the death
950
01:36:46,392 --> 01:36:51,591
I'm going to win
and return to this house
951
01:36:51,830 --> 01:36:57,598
At that time, if I were
to ask you...
952
01:36:57,868 --> 01:37:01,326
...to be my wife...
953
01:37:02,939 --> 01:37:05,908
...would you accept?
954
01:37:12,747 --> 01:37:18,379
A few days ago I had
a proposal...
955
01:37:18,618 --> 01:37:21,143
...from a retainer in Aizu
956
01:37:21,387 --> 01:37:26,188
I accepted.
957
01:37:38,234 --> 01:37:40,702
I've been very rude
958
01:37:43,205 --> 01:37:48,871
I should never have asked you
to come here
959
01:37:50,310 --> 01:37:52,073
No
960
01:37:52,612 --> 01:37:57,709
I'm happy that you asked me
961
01:38:08,292 --> 01:38:11,693
I've been a fool
962
01:38:14,029 --> 01:38:19,865
Please forget everything
I've said
963
01:38:23,637 --> 01:38:29,371
Really? A retainer from Aizu...
964
01:38:30,576 --> 01:38:35,570
That sounds like
965
01:38:45,154 --> 01:38:46,212
Are they here?
966
01:38:46,422 --> 01:38:47,446
Yup
967
01:38:49,658 --> 01:38:53,094
well, I'll be going
968
01:38:56,429 --> 01:39:00,866
Thank you very much
for everything
969
01:39:02,901 --> 01:39:04,664
Um...
970
01:39:06,004 --> 01:39:13,035
...I'm afraid I can't wait here
until you come back
971
01:39:13,343 --> 01:39:19,339
I pray with all my heart...
972
01:39:22,217 --> 01:39:30,056
...that luck is with you
and you come back safely
973
01:39:46,770 --> 01:39:51,798
Naota, see Miss Tomoe home
when she goes
974
01:39:52,608 --> 01:39:55,202
Take care of the kids
975
01:40:56,259 --> 01:40:58,250
Mrs Iguchi...
976
01:40:59,430 --> 01:41:02,228
...how are you today?
977
01:41:03,367 --> 01:41:05,892
Fine, thank you
978
01:41:08,104 --> 01:41:13,132
Of which household
would you be the daughter?
979
01:41:14,976 --> 01:41:18,434
Me?
980
01:41:18,979 --> 01:41:21,413
I am...
981
01:41:22,582 --> 01:41:27,042
...Squire Seibei's
childhood friend...
982
01:41:29,021 --> 01:41:31,455
...Tomoe
983
01:41:46,468 --> 01:41:47,662
Sir...
984
01:41:55,809 --> 01:41:58,039
Squire Iguchi?
985
01:42:01,513 --> 01:42:07,213
Zenemon Yogo has closed himself in
with the shutters down
986
01:42:10,220 --> 01:42:13,656
That is Genba Hattori
Master of Foot
987
01:42:14,657 --> 01:42:17,387
we should remove
his corpse...
988
01:42:17,626 --> 01:42:20,993
...but no one can get in
989
01:42:22,763 --> 01:42:24,958
Take care
990
01:42:26,333 --> 01:42:30,770
Zenemon Yogo is no longer human
He is a beast!
991
01:42:46,383 --> 01:42:47,645
Leave to enter!
992
01:43:22,978 --> 01:43:25,208
Sir Twilight...
993
01:43:39,258 --> 01:43:41,556
So they sent you?
994
01:43:46,197 --> 01:43:52,761
Zenemon Yogo... by order of
the clan, I come for your life
995
01:43:55,404 --> 01:43:57,133
Draw your sword, please
996
01:44:13,018 --> 01:44:15,043
Have a drink?
997
01:44:17,656 --> 01:44:22,150
I know you're all keyed up
but I'm going to run
998
01:44:22,660 --> 01:44:23,786
Run?
999
01:44:24,028 --> 01:44:25,188
Yep
1000
01:44:26,829 --> 01:44:32,199
I want you let me get away
If you please
1001
01:44:39,239 --> 01:44:44,700
I didn't expect that from the clan's
best one-sword man
1002
01:44:45,811 --> 01:44:50,805
My orders are to kill you
I can't let you escape
1003
01:44:53,684 --> 01:44:59,020
Don't be so impatient
You can kill me any time
1004
01:44:59,289 --> 01:45:02,588
I'd like to talk to you
1005
01:45:03,192 --> 01:45:05,752
Have a seat
1006
01:45:11,598 --> 01:45:13,930
It's a nice day
1007
01:45:16,135 --> 01:45:17,932
Sit down
1008
01:45:36,051 --> 01:45:37,678
what's going on?
1009
01:45:37,886 --> 01:45:39,717
They're talking
1010
01:45:47,361 --> 01:45:52,025
Even if you escaped
where would you go?
1011
01:45:52,898 --> 01:45:58,495
Over that mountain and I'm out
of the clan's domain
1012
01:45:58,736 --> 01:46:01,671
There are masterless samurai
everywhere
1013
01:46:01,939 --> 01:46:06,205
I can lose myself in them
go to Kyoto, to Edo...
1014
01:46:06,442 --> 01:46:08,467
If I do that for a few years...
1015
01:46:08,777 --> 01:46:12,611
...the world will have changed
1016
01:46:13,114 --> 01:46:15,742
The samurai's day is done
1017
01:46:16,016 --> 01:46:18,883
This isn't the time
for that talk
1018
01:46:19,586 --> 01:46:23,886
Pick up your sword, please
1019
01:46:25,158 --> 01:46:28,286
I am under orders
from the clan to...
1020
01:46:28,593 --> 01:46:31,289
Like hell!
1021
01:46:33,831 --> 01:46:40,828
You're the clan's errand boy
out to claim a reward
1022
01:46:41,804 --> 01:46:48,300
Have a drink
I was an errand boy, too
1023
01:47:01,220 --> 01:47:05,418
I served Lord Shigemasa Toki
1024
01:47:05,723 --> 01:47:11,286
Twelve years ago he was ordered
to commit suicide...
1025
01:47:11,594 --> 01:47:15,291
...after a power struggle
within his clan
1026
01:47:15,897 --> 01:47:18,991
Then I wandered for seven years
with my wife and daughter...
1027
01:47:19,300 --> 01:47:25,569
...in search of a new situation
1028
01:47:26,006 --> 01:47:27,667
Seven?
1029
01:47:28,541 --> 01:47:32,033
with no income?
1030
01:47:32,110 --> 01:47:33,839
Of course not
1031
01:47:34,078 --> 01:47:39,846
I did manual labor and helped
peasants plant and harvest...
1032
01:47:40,584 --> 01:47:43,052
...to get a little rice
1033
01:47:43,320 --> 01:47:48,485
Or we'd slink into a temple
and beg alms there sometimes
1034
01:47:49,558 --> 01:47:55,019
Three years ago the Unasaka clan
made me an official retainer...
1035
01:47:55,295 --> 01:48:00,528
...but by then hardship
had killed my wife
1036
01:48:02,835 --> 01:48:07,932
I'm good with a sword
but I'm hard to get along with...
1037
01:48:09,340 --> 01:48:15,870
...and I can't hold my liquor
1038
01:48:16,179 --> 01:48:19,342
But this time I promised myself
it'd be different
1039
01:48:19,615 --> 01:48:22,482
I would do my duty
as a true Unasaka retainer
1040
01:48:22,784 --> 01:48:28,279
I worked hard to do that
1041
01:48:28,556 --> 01:48:32,959
My superior was
Lord Shima Hasegawa
1042
01:48:33,226 --> 01:48:37,993
He liked me, and did
all he could for me
1043
01:48:38,530 --> 01:48:40,191
To me...
1044
01:48:41,166 --> 01:48:46,433
...the tasks he assigned were
the tasks of the clan
1045
01:48:46,970 --> 01:48:53,739
His orders were the clan's orders
and I carried them out faithfully
1046
01:48:53,943 --> 01:48:56,173
what was wrong with that
Twilight?
1047
01:48:56,411 --> 01:49:01,940
why do I have to
cut open my stomach?
1048
01:49:03,350 --> 01:49:05,511
I haven't come here
to answer...
1049
01:49:05,785 --> 01:49:11,052
...that kind of question
1050
01:49:15,660 --> 01:49:22,964
I heard your wife died
of consumption. Is that true?
1051
01:49:23,969 --> 01:49:25,561
I'm surprised you know that
1052
01:49:25,637 --> 01:49:30,301
And her fever went up
as night came on?
1053
01:49:30,708 --> 01:49:32,232
Yes
1054
01:49:33,677 --> 01:49:39,616
Consumption is a hard disease
And it's catching
1055
01:49:40,082 --> 01:49:45,577
My daughter died of consumption
caught from her mother
1056
01:49:46,253 --> 01:49:50,280
You're not the only one
who's suffered
1057
01:49:50,757 --> 01:49:53,487
How old was your daughter?
1058
01:49:54,594 --> 01:49:56,391
Sixteen
1059
01:50:02,166 --> 01:50:06,830
when she should have been
a bud swelling into bloom...
1060
01:50:07,070 --> 01:50:09,937
...she died...
1061
01:50:12,474 --> 01:50:18,970
...nothing but skin and bones
A sad, sad sight
1062
01:50:19,313 --> 01:50:22,578
I'm very sorry to hear that
1063
01:50:22,883 --> 01:50:25,477
Her ashes
1064
01:50:29,855 --> 01:50:34,554
She was a pretty girl
with pale skin
1065
01:50:44,766 --> 01:50:49,726
I guess Lord Hasegawa
took pity on me
1066
01:50:49,971 --> 01:50:56,638
He gave me money for a funeral
well above my station
1067
01:50:56,943 --> 01:50:59,434
If only for that...
1068
01:50:59,679 --> 01:51:05,345
...I'm very much in
Lord Hasegawa's debt
1069
01:51:09,353 --> 01:51:12,413
what's your stipend?
1070
01:51:14,424 --> 01:51:16,289
50 koku
1071
01:51:18,427 --> 01:51:24,297
A sick wife, and children
all on 50 koku?
1072
01:51:24,665 --> 01:51:27,566
That must be hard
1073
01:51:32,171 --> 01:51:38,041
Doctor and medicine alone cost
a ryo and 2 bu a month
1074
01:51:42,180 --> 01:51:46,082
Piece work wouldn't cover that
1075
01:51:46,316 --> 01:51:50,753
I borrowed from relatives
but it still wasn't enough
1076
01:51:51,053 --> 01:51:56,423
Sometimes we didn't even have
tomorrow's rice left
1077
01:51:56,658 --> 01:52:03,086
I know how bad it feels to see
the bottom of your rice chest
1078
01:52:03,363 --> 01:52:06,423
You've had hard times, too
1079
01:52:06,766 --> 01:52:10,964
where I really ran into trouble
was my wife's funeral
1080
01:52:12,871 --> 01:52:18,138
The family's main branch wanted
a funeral that wouldn't shame them
1081
01:52:18,409 --> 01:52:20,377
I couldn't afford it
1082
01:52:21,444 --> 01:52:26,848
I was desperate
so I finally sold my sword
1083
01:52:27,115 --> 01:52:31,347
It was a fine sword
I'd inherited from my father...
1084
01:52:35,055 --> 01:52:43,929
...but I figured
the age of the sword was over
1085
01:52:45,630 --> 01:52:51,933
I'm afraid this is just bamboo
1086
01:52:57,139 --> 01:53:01,542
You're going to kill me
with a bamboo sword?
1087
01:53:04,312 --> 01:53:06,246
No
1088
01:53:06,947 --> 01:53:11,350
I learned short-sword
from Toda-Sensei
1089
01:53:11,651 --> 01:53:16,588
I meant to fight with that
1090
01:53:16,788 --> 01:53:18,722
Short-sword?
1091
01:53:19,891 --> 01:53:24,624
You mean to kill me
with some kind of cheap trick?
1092
01:53:25,195 --> 01:53:29,495
You're not taking me seriously
are you
1093
01:53:30,065 --> 01:53:31,464
wait!
1094
01:53:31,700 --> 01:53:33,361
I won't have it!
1095
01:53:34,035 --> 01:53:38,665
I only told you that because
you wanted me to let you go!
1096
01:53:42,909 --> 01:53:44,069
Draw!
1097
01:53:49,381 --> 01:53:51,144
Sir!
1098
01:54:14,434 --> 01:54:16,459
You're very good...
1099
01:54:18,804 --> 01:54:23,298
If you want to run
now's your chance
1100
01:54:25,043 --> 01:54:26,943
After I kill you
1101
01:54:31,848 --> 01:54:33,543
Draw!
1102
01:54:35,418 --> 01:54:38,910
Sir! There's still time
to stop
1103
01:54:49,762 --> 01:54:51,457
Calm down and think!
1104
01:54:52,364 --> 01:54:55,162
You haven't rested
since yesterday
1105
01:54:55,867 --> 01:54:59,894
You're already breathing hard
1106
01:55:00,605 --> 01:55:03,574
You mock me
1107
01:55:12,047 --> 01:55:18,008
Sir! Continue this
and I'll cut you down
1108
01:55:18,786 --> 01:55:20,811
Is that what you want?
1109
01:55:21,021 --> 01:55:22,750
That's fine by me
1110
01:55:26,392 --> 01:55:27,689
Draw
1111
01:55:58,217 --> 01:56:02,517
You've cut me, Twilight
1112
01:57:10,975 --> 01:57:14,968
This is what you get
for taking me lightly
1113
01:57:46,539 --> 01:57:49,372
Have a seat
1114
01:58:05,021 --> 01:58:10,960
will you let me go
Twilight?
1115
01:58:13,294 --> 01:58:15,023
That was...
1116
01:58:17,231 --> 01:58:19,699
...my intention
1117
01:58:40,883 --> 01:58:42,783
It's dark
1118
01:58:50,323 --> 01:58:52,951
I can't see
1119
01:58:59,264 --> 01:59:01,232
Hell
1120
01:59:19,547 --> 01:59:21,310
Twilight...
1121
01:59:54,809 --> 01:59:56,242
Is it over?
1122
02:00:00,713 --> 02:00:04,979
It's all yours
1123
02:00:08,319 --> 02:00:09,343
Careful!
1124
02:00:16,426 --> 02:00:17,654
He's dead!
1125
02:00:49,919 --> 02:00:50,943
Ito...
1126
02:00:53,889 --> 02:00:55,447
Go buy some tofu
1127
02:00:59,394 --> 02:01:00,986
Don't lose the money
1128
02:01:09,335 --> 02:01:10,802
Miss Kayano!
1129
02:01:11,036 --> 02:01:13,027
It's the Master!
1130
02:01:24,180 --> 02:01:25,442
Ito...
1131
02:01:27,782 --> 02:01:29,682
...I'm home
1132
02:01:49,867 --> 02:01:53,860
Miss Tomoe! Father's back!
1133
02:02:28,431 --> 02:02:33,801
You're still here...
1134
02:02:40,040 --> 02:02:41,735
Thank heaven!
1135
02:02:43,844 --> 02:02:45,937
I was sure...
1136
02:02:46,546 --> 02:02:52,212
...you were dead!
1137
02:03:01,124 --> 02:03:06,391
Finally Miss Tomoe
became our mother
1138
02:03:06,962 --> 02:03:09,487
My father was happy
1139
02:03:13,800 --> 02:03:21,036
But peace prevailed in our house
for less than three years
1140
02:03:23,008 --> 02:03:26,705
with the Meiji Restoration
came civil war
1141
02:03:27,312 --> 02:03:30,839
Our clan supported
the former Shogun...
1142
02:03:31,148 --> 02:03:36,552
...and fought as rebels
against the emperor's government
1143
02:03:38,321 --> 02:03:41,290
During this 'Boshin war'.
1144
02:03:41,623 --> 02:03:45,719
...my father was shot
and killed
1145
02:04:09,278 --> 02:04:15,911
Tomoe took us, her step-daughters
to Edo, now 'Tokyo'...
1146
02:04:16,384 --> 02:04:21,481
...and supported us
until we were both married
1147
02:04:22,655 --> 02:04:29,891
Now she sleeps with my father
beneath this stone
1148
02:04:31,429 --> 02:04:38,426
In the new Meiji era, many men
who had worked with my father...
1149
02:04:38,668 --> 02:04:43,571
...rose to positions
of great authority
1150
02:04:43,839 --> 02:04:46,467
I often heard them say...
1151
02:04:46,875 --> 02:04:51,073
...that 'Twilight Seibei
was an unlucky man.'
1152
02:04:51,145 --> 02:04:57,380
But I do not agree
1153
02:04:58,684 --> 02:05:04,179
My father had no desire
to rise in the world...
1154
02:05:04,256 --> 02:05:09,216
...and I don't think
he considered himself unlucky
1155
02:05:10,627 --> 02:05:13,755
He loved his daughters...
1156
02:05:14,230 --> 02:05:18,496
...and the beautiful Tomoe
loved him
1157
02:05:18,800 --> 02:05:25,364
His life, I think
was short but full
1158
02:05:27,007 --> 02:05:33,571
I am proud to have had
such a father
