1
00:00:14,600 --> 00:00:16,520
When Mori Motonari was born,
2
00:00:16,840 --> 00:00:21,800
the Chugoku Region had the Ouchi clan
(regional guardian) in Yamaguchi and...
3
00:00:22,970 --> 00:00:27,490
...the Amago clan, who were extending power
mostly over the Sea of Japan side.
4
00:00:27,800 --> 00:00:29,960
The two major powers were
in fierce competition.
5
00:00:30,330 --> 00:00:32,920
The Mori, as a mere small
provincial constable in Aki,
6
00:00:33,230 --> 00:00:36,130
often got caught in battles
between the two major powers.
7
00:00:36,430 --> 00:00:38,540
They had no other survival tactics.
8
00:00:38,860 --> 00:00:43,450
As they fought to survive, they gradually
established their status as the leader of Aki.
9
00:00:43,730 --> 00:00:47,260
They took advantage of locating
between the Ouchi and the Amago,
10
00:00:47,570 --> 00:00:51,450
and finally became a key player in
conflicts between the two major clans.
11
00:00:51,760 --> 00:00:56,230
The two major clans lost charismatic heads
and began to suffer.
12
00:00:56,520 --> 00:00:59,770
Then, Mori Motonari took the Ouchi in.
13
00:01:00,110 --> 00:01:06,110
He also developed power to compete
against the Amago, the remaining power.
14
00:01:06,570 --> 00:01:11,580
Now, the fateful battle to determine
supremacy in the Chugoku Region,
15
00:01:11,890 --> 00:01:13,590
is about to begin.
16
00:01:26,320 --> 00:01:29,810

1565 (Eiroku 8)
It has been four years...
49
00:03:59,830 --> 00:04:03,200
...since the Mori army besieged
Gassan-Toda Castle in Izumo.
50
00:04:04,720 --> 00:04:08,230
GASSAN-TODA CASTLE (Izumo)
Since the Mori set an example of killing deserters,
51
00:04:08,530 --> 00:04:12,370
Amago soldiers have been suffering
from hunger, because they couldn't escape.
52
00:04:13,800 --> 00:04:19,290
ARAWAI CASTLE (Mori Main Camp, Izumo)
Meanwhile, the Mori army were being at ease,
53
00:04:19,560 --> 00:04:22,200
waiting for the Amago to run out of food.
54
00:04:22,500 --> 00:04:27,400
They were enjoying their leisurely stay
that was unusual on a battlefield.
55
00:04:27,400 --> 00:04:28,500
Motoharu.
56
00:04:29,400 --> 00:04:32,720
Thanks for copying
all the forty volumes of Taiheiki.
57
00:04:32,990 --> 00:04:36,620
This is an asset for future generations.
58
00:04:37,140 --> 00:04:38,150
You're welcome.
59
00:04:39,520 --> 00:04:43,380
Motoharu, you're well-known
as an ever-victorious general.
60
00:04:43,660 --> 00:04:46,190
But I didn't know
you were a real litterateur.
61
00:04:46,420 --> 00:04:47,430
I'm surprised.
62
00:04:47,680 --> 00:04:49,770
I know we're having a battle, but...
63
00:04:50,730 --> 00:04:52,860
...I don't want to laugh and wait
for the Amago to die of hunger.
64
00:04:53,130 --> 00:04:55,280
If I do something for future generations,
65
00:04:55,510 --> 00:04:57,150
the Amago will be able to rest in peace.
66
00:04:57,390 --> 00:04:58,400
Great Lord.
67
00:04:58,990 --> 00:05:03,590
The Amago must be thinking of
opening the castle gates soon.
68
00:05:03,910 --> 00:05:04,690
Right.
69
00:05:05,190 --> 00:05:08,660
We should catch this tide
to make a settlement with them.
70
00:05:08,880 --> 00:05:09,910
I think so, too.
71
00:05:10,130 --> 00:05:10,880
No.
72
00:05:12,190 --> 00:05:15,700
When you think you've done enough,
73
00:05:16,250 --> 00:05:20,720
you should wait for another beat.
74
00:05:28,130 --> 00:05:29,890
Hey.
75
00:05:30,340 --> 00:05:32,820
Rice gruel.
76
00:05:36,360 --> 00:05:37,460
This is it?
77
00:05:38,150 --> 00:05:40,570
I heard we got provisions.
78
00:05:42,180 --> 00:05:43,800
I don't understand.
79
00:05:44,170 --> 00:05:47,100
The superiors seem to be hiding it.
80
00:05:47,700 --> 00:05:50,300
Sounds like someone is
in communication with the Mori.
81
00:05:50,530 --> 00:05:51,330
Are you sure?
82
00:05:51,330 --> 00:05:53,110
Unforgiveable.
Who's that?
83
00:05:53,470 --> 00:05:56,790
I'm not really sure, but a rumor says...
84
00:05:57,470 --> 00:05:58,380
...it's Kawazoe-dono.
85
00:05:58,850 --> 00:06:00,240
Kawazoe?
86
00:06:00,950 --> 00:06:04,420
Our lord is betrayed by his aide?
87
00:06:04,750 --> 00:06:06,100
If that's true,
88
00:06:07,100 --> 00:06:08,740
we'll be in big trouble.
89
00:06:09,960 --> 00:06:10,960
Hey.
90
00:06:11,340 --> 00:06:12,720
Did you hear that?
91
00:06:13,800 --> 00:06:15,250
The superiors are eating a lot.
92
00:06:15,760 --> 00:06:16,650
What?
93
00:06:31,330 --> 00:06:33,870
- Did you want to see me, sir?
- Hisanobu.
94
00:06:34,310 --> 00:06:38,580
I trusted you and followed your ways.
95
00:06:38,850 --> 00:06:41,670
But why are you�Edoing nothing?
96
00:06:42,330 --> 00:06:44,280
Don't you have any ideas?
97
00:06:44,640 --> 00:06:47,600
Kawazoe-dono, you're doing nothing...
98
00:06:47,870 --> 00:06:53,580
...because you're in communication
with the Mori, according to a rumor.
99
00:06:53,910 --> 00:06:54,650
Sire.
100
00:06:54,650 --> 00:06:56,850
Don't take such a rumor seriously.
101
00:06:57,950 --> 00:06:59,380
But, Kawazoe-dono.
102
00:06:59,800 --> 00:07:04,510
You made us bear, because you wanted to
find out every single detail of the Mori...
103
00:07:04,780 --> 00:07:06,520
...and wait for them to lower their guard?
104
00:07:06,790 --> 00:07:09,590
How smart of you,
Yamanaka Shikanosuke.
105
00:07:09,800 --> 00:07:11,200
I'm impressed.
106
00:07:15,290 --> 00:07:19,220
This is a secret letter from
a Mori vassal, Akawaga Motoyasu.
107
00:07:19,500 --> 00:07:22,810
He says,
"The Mori are completely off guard."
108
00:07:23,140 --> 00:07:25,660
Three days from now,
on the night of the new moon,
109
00:07:25,870 --> 00:07:29,470
he wants me to send him an assassin.
110
00:07:29,800 --> 00:07:31,110
An assassin?
111
00:07:31,770 --> 00:07:33,400
Are you going to kill Motonari?
112
00:07:33,650 --> 00:07:35,740
That's right.
113
00:07:35,740 --> 00:07:37,870
I have been in communication with Akagawa...
114
00:07:38,870 --> 00:07:39,520
...to find a chance for that.
115
00:07:39,770 --> 00:07:41,800
Kawazoe, you're being tricked.
116
00:07:42,810 --> 00:07:45,930
You think you're tricking Motonari,
117
00:07:46,350 --> 00:07:48,380
but you're being tricked by him.
118
00:07:53,290 --> 00:07:54,570
I finished setting...
119
00:07:54,880 --> 00:07:57,850
...all the traps for the Amago.
120
00:07:59,590 --> 00:08:02,440
Three days from now,
on the night of the new moon,
121
00:08:02,680 --> 00:08:04,730
an assassin is coming to kill you.
122
00:08:04,980 --> 00:08:06,850
I'll kill the assassin,
123
00:08:07,220 --> 00:08:12,280
you can prove a Mori man's
secret tie with the Amago.
124
00:08:12,530 --> 00:08:16,510
Then, my job will be done.
125
00:08:17,610 --> 00:08:21,530
The Amago trust you.
126
00:08:21,530 --> 00:08:26,600
Their hope for comeback win
must be expanding now.
127
00:08:27,770 --> 00:08:30,670
I won't miss the chance...
128
00:08:32,230 --> 00:08:35,840
...to cut them down from inside.
129
00:08:39,580 --> 00:08:41,610
Even demons...
130
00:08:42,180 --> 00:08:45,660
...are kinder than you, Great Lord.
131
00:08:52,560 --> 00:08:54,130
Motoyasu.
132
00:08:55,750 --> 00:08:59,160
After this battle is over,
133
00:09:00,800 --> 00:09:05,760
I'm going to call you back
from Akama-ga-seki.
134
00:09:07,380 --> 00:09:08,970
I, Motoyasu,
135
00:09:09,340 --> 00:09:13,910
accepted this mission for late lord.
136
00:09:15,320 --> 00:09:20,340
Not for the Mori,
nor for you, Great Lord.
137
00:09:21,230 --> 00:09:25,320
Please do not mind me, sir.
138
00:09:27,360 --> 00:09:31,770
Takamoto died in front of you.
139
00:09:33,190 --> 00:09:34,730
Furthermore,
140
00:09:36,390 --> 00:09:40,950
you contacted Kawazoe behind my back.
141
00:09:41,460 --> 00:09:49,220
I and the other clansmen cannot help
doubting you as guilty of murdering Takamoto.
142
00:09:51,760 --> 00:09:53,550
But,
143
00:09:54,820 --> 00:09:58,220
If you complete this mission,
144
00:09:59,750 --> 00:10:02,420
all the suspicions will be cleared.
145
00:10:05,240 --> 00:10:07,790
Only Takamoto-dono knew...
146
00:10:08,130 --> 00:10:10,560
...my innocence.
147
00:10:13,300 --> 00:10:15,780
That's good enough.
148
00:10:17,510 --> 00:10:20,700
I want to prove my innocence...
149
00:10:21,490 --> 00:10:23,440
...on my own way.
150
00:10:28,600 --> 00:10:31,790
You're so stubborn, Motoyasu.
151
00:10:36,250 --> 00:10:39,580
After your mission is complete,
152
00:10:40,150 --> 00:10:44,700
go back to Akama-ga-seki secrely...
153
00:10:44,700 --> 00:10:47,890
...and wait for my instructions.
154
00:11:07,730 --> 00:11:08,750
Great Lord.
155
00:11:09,120 --> 00:11:11,240
- Who's that?
- Wait.
156
00:11:11,490 --> 00:11:13,150
That's my spy.
157
00:11:13,150 --> 00:11:14,400
Don't worry.
158
00:11:14,740 --> 00:11:17,470
Prepare the horse and wait for me.
159
00:11:22,610 --> 00:11:23,780
Kosanta.
160
00:11:25,300 --> 00:11:26,860
What's the matter?
161
00:11:27,980 --> 00:11:29,910
People in the Amago castle...
162
00:11:30,150 --> 00:11:31,720
...are reaching their limits.
163
00:11:32,440 --> 00:11:35,970
I widely spread a rumor of Kawazoe
being in communication with the Mori.
164
00:11:36,230 --> 00:11:37,860
So everybody knows about that.
165
00:11:42,830 --> 00:11:45,350
This is the finishing blow.
166
00:11:47,260 --> 00:11:51,210
This is a secret letter addressed to Kawazo.
167
00:11:51,720 --> 00:11:55,410
Make this letter fall into Yoshihisa's hands.
168
00:11:56,750 --> 00:11:58,270
Certainly, sir.
169
00:12:00,310 --> 00:12:02,230
Kosanta.
170
00:12:03,990 --> 00:12:06,640
I've known you for a long time.
171
00:12:07,490 --> 00:12:08,170
Yes.
172
00:12:10,940 --> 00:12:17,880
You have more grey hair now.
173
00:12:20,270 --> 00:12:22,540
Like a bird,
174
00:12:23,270 --> 00:12:25,510
like wind,
175
00:12:26,490 --> 00:12:29,750
you worked for me a lot.
176
00:12:30,330 --> 00:12:31,990
Great Lord.
177
00:12:32,620 --> 00:12:35,500
I, Kosanta,
178
00:12:35,500 --> 00:12:38,570
want to make this my last mission.
179
00:12:38,880 --> 00:12:40,790
As a ninja,
180
00:12:41,190 --> 00:12:43,950
I've grown too old.
181
00:12:45,360 --> 00:12:46,800
I see.
182
00:12:49,450 --> 00:12:54,120
After capturing Gassan-Toda Castle,
183
00:12:55,360 --> 00:13:00,280
I'm going to make
Terumoto take over the clan.
184
00:13:01,600 --> 00:13:04,590
This might be...
185
00:13:04,990 --> 00:13:08,610
...our last mission.
186
00:13:08,880 --> 00:13:10,380
Yes.
187
00:13:11,320 --> 00:13:13,250
Long time ago,
188
00:13:13,500 --> 00:13:16,350
Lady Mii saved my life.
189
00:13:16,760 --> 00:13:19,830
It was like only yesterday.
190
00:13:20,630 --> 00:13:21,650
Kosanta!
191
00:13:21,650 --> 00:13:22,750
Sheath your sword!
192
00:13:22,750 --> 00:13:26,560
His name is Kosanta.
He is a Kikkawa spy.
193
00:13:26,770 --> 00:13:28,690
I was wrong.
194
00:13:29,340 --> 00:13:32,100
Please forgive me.
195
00:13:32,880 --> 00:13:34,380
Great Lord.
196
00:13:34,670 --> 00:13:36,480
It's been...
197
00:13:36,710 --> 00:13:38,880
...47 years since then.
198
00:13:39,180 --> 00:13:41,420
47 years, huh?
199
00:13:54,220 --> 00:13:55,200
Kosanta.
200
00:13:56,790 --> 00:13:58,360
After this,
201
00:14:00,840 --> 00:14:03,650
what are you going to do?
202
00:14:04,280 --> 00:14:07,560
I'll move into the heart of a mountain...
203
00:14:07,850 --> 00:14:10,170
...and live there as I feed birds.
204
00:14:13,620 --> 00:14:14,980
I see.
205
00:14:33,960 --> 00:14:35,440
At Koriyama Castle,
206
00:14:35,740 --> 00:14:38,990
all women were gathering
based on an idea of Tae's.
207
00:14:39,230 --> 00:14:43,320
They were going to start praying
for their clansmen on the battlefield.
208
00:14:43,620 --> 00:14:48,150
Gathering all the ancestor's tablets
to pray for the Mori's victory...
209
00:14:48,150 --> 00:14:49,850
What a great idea, Tae-sama?
210
00:14:51,430 --> 00:14:52,520
Not this.
211
00:15:03,350 --> 00:15:04,100
Oh.
212
00:15:04,520 --> 00:15:06,810
This is Fujino-dono's tablet.
213
00:15:07,460 --> 00:15:08,560
Fujino-dono.
214
00:15:08,970 --> 00:15:12,100
I'm much loved by my husband Motoharu.
215
00:15:12,340 --> 00:15:14,750
That made me become such a pretty woman.
216
00:15:15,750 --> 00:15:16,640
Lady Mii.
217
00:15:17,260 --> 00:15:21,630
You loved my husband Takakage
more than anyone else.
218
00:15:21,630 --> 00:15:22,820
Please protect him.
219
00:15:24,780 --> 00:15:26,920
I'll ask everyone.
220
00:15:27,200 --> 00:15:31,330
Please make the Great Lord live
as long as possible.
221
00:15:31,600 --> 00:15:33,160
Please protect him.
222
00:15:34,190 --> 00:15:36,460
Please heed my request.
223
00:15:36,760 --> 00:15:39,150
Hey, what I hear is...
224
00:15:39,440 --> 00:15:43,210
...your prayers only for your own husbands.
225
00:15:43,210 --> 00:15:45,540
Aren't you supposed to
pray for the Mori's victory?
226
00:15:45,760 --> 00:15:46,650
Kiyo.
227
00:15:46,870 --> 00:15:50,560
That's fine.
I heard the Mori are winning for sure.
228
00:15:52,200 --> 00:15:52,920
Kiyo.
229
00:15:53,250 --> 00:15:54,510
Bring a new string.
230
00:15:54,840 --> 00:15:55,600
Yes.
231
00:15:56,120 --> 00:15:58,460
- By the way, Gin-dono.
- Yes?
232
00:15:58,460 --> 00:16:00,740
Do something about
your mistress, Tae-sama.
233
00:16:01,140 --> 00:16:02,720
Instead of making a prayer room here,
234
00:16:02,950 --> 00:16:03,960
she is making a mess.
235
00:16:04,240 --> 00:16:06,960
She wants the Great Lord to
live to be 150-years-old.
236
00:16:07,170 --> 00:16:09,910
She's just practicing the art
of perpetual youth and longevity.
237
00:16:10,160 --> 00:16:11,670
Leave her alone.
238
00:16:19,910 --> 00:16:21,590
Forget about perpetual youth and longevity.
239
00:16:21,870 --> 00:16:23,650
Don't make any more mess, Tae-sama!
240
00:16:26,410 --> 00:16:27,410
Done!
241
00:16:28,200 --> 00:16:29,880
This is done!
242
00:16:31,480 --> 00:16:33,870
Can you really make him live
to be 150-years-old?
243
00:16:34,210 --> 00:16:36,580
Still halfway.
But he can live to age 75.
244
00:16:36,880 --> 00:16:38,600
According to books,
245
00:16:38,600 --> 00:16:42,620
you'll be up and around
until 75 only by licking this.
246
00:16:42,980 --> 00:16:44,700
- Up and around...?
- Try it.
247
00:16:48,100 --> 00:16:49,630
So this works, doesn't it?
248
00:16:49,840 --> 00:16:50,940
- Yes, it does.
- Mimi-sama.
249
00:16:51,220 --> 00:16:52,980
How is it?
250
00:16:53,950 --> 00:16:55,160
Must be bitter.
251
00:16:56,350 --> 00:16:57,860
It is bitter.
252
00:16:58,640 --> 00:17:00,360
Because it works.
253
00:17:04,600 --> 00:17:06,190
By the time the Great Lord comes home,
254
00:17:06,440 --> 00:17:09,750
I'll make a medicine for
making you live to be 150.
255
00:17:10,980 --> 00:17:12,180
Great Lord.
256
00:17:13,400 --> 00:17:16,300
I will stay with you, forever.
257
00:18:02,700 --> 00:18:03,960
Who is it?
258
00:19:04,880 --> 00:19:05,890
He'll die.
259
00:19:11,470 --> 00:19:13,470
To Kawazoe-dono?
260
00:19:17,100 --> 00:19:19,140
This is from Mori Motonari.
261
00:19:27,190 --> 00:19:28,270
Great Lord.
262
00:19:29,270 --> 00:19:32,870
A ninja isn't supposed to make noise.
263
00:19:33,310 --> 00:19:35,380
I'm no good anymore.
264
00:19:37,130 --> 00:19:39,410
But your secret letter...
265
00:19:40,190 --> 00:19:42,350
...is now in his hands.
266
00:20:14,410 --> 00:20:16,780
It was the night of the new moon.
267
00:20:22,640 --> 00:20:24,630
Were you sent by Kawazoe-dono?
268
00:20:24,930 --> 00:20:26,540
Right.
269
00:20:26,540 --> 00:20:30,280
Mori Motonari changed
his bedroom for tonight.
270
00:20:31,680 --> 00:20:35,500
Check the location with the map over there.
271
00:20:54,320 --> 00:20:57,380
Akagawa killed the assassin and...
272
00:20:57,380 --> 00:21:02,400
...secretly returned to Akama-ga-seki
where he confined himself.
273
00:21:03,900 --> 00:21:07,500
Mori Motonari's once-in-a-lifetime battle was...
274
00:21:07,830 --> 00:21:11,260
...about to enter the climax.
275
00:21:33,960 --> 00:21:36,250
Day has broken.
276
00:21:36,910 --> 00:21:39,410
Why haven't we heard...
277
00:21:40,150 --> 00:21:42,710
...a report that Motonari was killed?
278
00:21:45,390 --> 00:21:46,500
Kawazoe-dono.
279
00:21:47,140 --> 00:21:48,820
It's taking too long.
280
00:21:49,220 --> 00:21:50,530
Be patient.
281
00:21:50,900 --> 00:21:53,530
He was killed for sure.
282
00:21:54,300 --> 00:21:55,400
Lord!
283
00:21:56,200 --> 00:21:57,560
That's the report.
284
00:21:59,710 --> 00:22:01,150
Is Moronari dead?
285
00:22:04,210 --> 00:22:05,210
What's the word?
286
00:22:05,630 --> 00:22:10,870
The Mori are telling your soldiers
to desert the castle.
287
00:22:11,300 --> 00:22:13,990
Many soldiers are leaving now!
288
00:22:14,980 --> 00:22:16,480
What...?
289
00:22:17,750 --> 00:22:21,130
That noise is being made by deserters?
290
00:22:22,240 --> 00:22:23,570
Motonari...
291
00:22:24,550 --> 00:22:27,110
Motonari isn't dead?
292
00:22:27,500 --> 00:22:28,590
I don't know.
293
00:22:29,120 --> 00:22:30,910
Akagawa...
294
00:22:30,910 --> 00:22:32,110
Akagawa...
295
00:22:32,560 --> 00:22:34,530
What is he doing?
296
00:22:34,530 --> 00:22:35,160
I don't know.
297
00:22:36,680 --> 00:22:39,380
What is Akagawa doing?
298
00:22:40,550 --> 00:22:41,810
Open!
299
00:22:44,840 --> 00:22:45,660
Food.
300
00:22:46,290 --> 00:22:48,890
Food!
Food is over there!
301
00:22:50,910 --> 00:22:52,340
Motonari announced that...
302
00:22:52,640 --> 00:22:58,140
...he'll save the lives of deserters
and feed them.
303
00:22:58,420 --> 00:22:59,320
As a result,
304
00:22:59,640 --> 00:23:04,920
not only foot soldiers but also key vassals
surrendered to the Mori.
305
00:23:23,920 --> 00:23:25,280
Look.
306
00:23:25,280 --> 00:23:27,880
You were tricked by Akagawa.
307
00:23:32,560 --> 00:23:33,440
The Amago...
308
00:23:33,750 --> 00:23:35,900
The Amago are done.
309
00:23:37,180 --> 00:23:39,430
The Amago are done.
310
00:23:39,670 --> 00:23:40,580
Your Ladyship.
311
00:23:40,940 --> 00:23:44,810
- Your Ladyship, it's not certain yet.
- It is.
312
00:23:46,760 --> 00:23:48,440
We're done.
313
00:23:50,270 --> 00:23:51,560
We are not done!
314
00:23:54,450 --> 00:23:55,390
Sire.
315
00:23:55,690 --> 00:23:57,320
I'll issue an order...
316
00:23:57,640 --> 00:24:02,980
...to gather remaining soldiers
and form an army.
317
00:24:08,750 --> 00:24:10,770
Stay here, Kawazoe.
318
00:24:12,860 --> 00:24:13,640
Sire.
319
00:24:13,890 --> 00:24:16,700
This was carried by a man
who seemed to be a Mori spy.
320
00:24:17,300 --> 00:24:21,130
This is definitely Motonari's handwriting.
I already checked.
321
00:24:21,950 --> 00:24:24,340
"When the Mori wins,"
322
00:24:24,930 --> 00:24:28,290
"I will give you part of the Amago fief."
323
00:24:28,600 --> 00:24:32,160
"I will repay you enough, Kawazoe-dono, for..."
324
00:24:32,410 --> 00:24:36,210
"...having secretly communicated with the Mori."
325
00:25:02,810 --> 00:25:03,930
You...
326
00:25:05,940 --> 00:25:09,350
...were in communication with
Motonari, as I doubted.
327
00:25:09,630 --> 00:25:10,160
Wh...
328
00:25:10,480 --> 00:25:12,280
What are you saying, sire?
329
00:25:12,510 --> 00:25:15,160
I was communicating with Akagawa to...
330
00:25:15,400 --> 00:25:17,890
...spy on the Mori. Didn't I tell you?
331
00:25:17,890 --> 00:25:18,810
Then why?
332
00:25:20,610 --> 00:25:23,230
Why nothing has changed?
333
00:25:23,920 --> 00:25:24,950
Why?
334
00:25:47,970 --> 00:25:49,670
I trusted you...
335
00:25:53,200 --> 00:25:58,160
- I trusted you.
- Yoshihisa.
336
00:25:59,480 --> 00:26:03,140
You did what your father did.
337
00:26:07,660 --> 00:26:09,730
You did what your father did!!
338
00:26:11,720 --> 00:26:13,610
Kunihisa.
339
00:26:14,450 --> 00:26:16,640
You're making me sad.
340
00:26:16,920 --> 00:26:22,480
You doubt me that much...?
341
00:26:25,620 --> 00:26:31,540
When Haruhisa killed Kunihisa,
the Amago were half done.
342
00:26:31,540 --> 00:26:35,940
You just killed Kawazoe,
we are all done now.
343
00:26:36,220 --> 00:26:39,160
You and your father put an end to the Amago!
344
00:26:39,160 --> 00:26:40,760
Your Ladyship.
345
00:26:44,210 --> 00:26:46,740
Motonari's maneuvering again.
346
00:26:47,910 --> 00:26:51,370
Motonari's maneuvering.
347
00:27:06,600 --> 00:27:08,700
The Amago are barely alive now.
348
00:27:08,960 --> 00:27:09,690
Great Lord.
349
00:27:09,950 --> 00:27:11,100
Let's attack them now...
350
00:27:11,100 --> 00:27:12,560
...and capture the castle.
351
00:27:13,410 --> 00:27:17,310
Great Lord's maneuvering
is impressive as usual.
352
00:27:17,310 --> 00:27:18,810
He killed deserters first and...
353
00:27:19,190 --> 00:27:21,110
...told them we'd kill them
once they step out of the castle.
354
00:27:21,340 --> 00:27:23,430
He made them eat more food.
355
00:27:23,430 --> 00:27:25,770
Now, he's telling them that
he'll treat deserters generously.
356
00:27:25,990 --> 00:27:28,780
Now you can capture the castle
with only ten soldiers!
357
00:27:29,200 --> 00:27:29,940
Great Lord.
358
00:27:30,290 --> 00:27:32,640
Even an old fart like me can capture it.
359
00:27:32,850 --> 00:27:34,900
Please issue me the order now!
360
00:27:36,660 --> 00:27:37,890
No.
361
00:27:38,230 --> 00:27:39,870
I don't.
362
00:27:40,530 --> 00:27:44,540
Wait for Amago Yoshihisa to surrender.
363
00:27:44,810 --> 00:27:48,140
Then, he'll just vacate his castle for us.
364
00:27:48,380 --> 00:27:52,180
- That doesn't mean we capture it.
- Right.
365
00:27:52,180 --> 00:27:55,360
Gassan-Toda Castle is
a well-known impregnable castle.
366
00:27:55,620 --> 00:27:58,950
- We can make our mark only by capturing it.
- No.
367
00:28:00,270 --> 00:28:01,350
I'm not going to.
368
00:28:06,340 --> 00:28:06,840
I...
369
00:28:09,730 --> 00:28:13,300
...liked Amago Tsunehisa-dono.
370
00:28:15,420 --> 00:28:17,170
He was my enemy.
371
00:28:19,230 --> 00:28:22,440
But he was a general...
372
00:28:23,420 --> 00:28:26,440
...who had been my loadstar.
373
00:28:26,990 --> 00:28:30,700
The more schemes you use,
the more chances of winning.
374
00:28:30,930 --> 00:28:33,410
You'll lose with less scheming.
375
00:28:33,410 --> 00:28:36,750
That is how
men are supposed to live in wartime.
376
00:28:37,900 --> 00:28:42,260
I could keep fighting this far...
377
00:28:45,130 --> 00:28:47,260
because...
378
00:28:49,540 --> 00:28:57,530
...I've been thinking of
Tsunehisa-dono as my loadstar.
379
00:28:59,780 --> 00:29:04,530
To Me, Gassan-Toda Castle is...
380
00:29:04,890 --> 00:29:11,520
...a symbol of something far
and out of my reach.
381
00:29:11,820 --> 00:29:14,110
That's why...
382
00:29:15,250 --> 00:29:18,430
...I want to get it no matter what.
383
00:29:18,880 --> 00:29:20,590
But...
384
00:29:21,330 --> 00:29:24,530
You can't attack and capture it.
385
00:29:26,410 --> 00:29:32,570
A house where
a great general used to live...
386
00:29:32,570 --> 00:29:36,170
...must be treated respectfully.
387
00:29:36,750 --> 00:29:38,970
Let's do what Grandpa says.
388
00:29:39,730 --> 00:29:43,640
I don't want to kill Yoshihisa either.
389
00:29:49,610 --> 00:29:50,450
Thanks...
390
00:29:52,860 --> 00:29:56,620
...for understanding my wish.
391
00:30:00,400 --> 00:30:01,130
Grandpa!
392
00:30:01,390 --> 00:30:02,590
- Great Lord!
- Grandpa!
393
00:30:02,590 --> 00:30:04,210
- Pull yourself together!
- Grandpa!
394
00:30:04,440 --> 00:30:05,810
Call the physician! Now!
395
00:30:05,810 --> 00:30:07,500
- Great Lord.
- Somebody!
396
00:30:07,720 --> 00:30:09,160
Hurry up!
397
00:30:13,630 --> 00:30:19,780
November 1566 (Eiroku 9)
In addition to his old age of 70,
398
00:30:19,780 --> 00:30:26,980
Motonari was exhausted from the deaths
of his beloved ones and non-stop campaigns.
399
00:30:26,980 --> 00:30:29,100
His body was seized with illnesses.
400
00:30:29,380 --> 00:30:30,410
Great Lord!
401
00:30:30,670 --> 00:30:33,250
He was bed-ridden off and on in his camp.
402
00:30:33,250 --> 00:30:36,220
In November 1566 (Eiroku 9),
403
00:30:36,530 --> 00:30:39,540
Amago Yoshihisa finally surrendered.
404
00:30:40,750 --> 00:30:45,580
As he pledged, Motonari gained
Gassan-Toda Castle without attacking.
405
00:30:45,870 --> 00:30:51,110
"...will hand Gassan-Toda Castle to..."
406
00:30:54,210 --> 00:30:57,680
When Amago Yoshihisa vacated
Gassan-Toda Castle,
407
00:30:57,930 --> 00:31:01,150
the Amago had only 140 men left.
408
00:31:02,150 --> 00:31:04,840
Motonari greeted Yoshihisa respectfully.
409
00:31:05,140 --> 00:31:08,170
He promised him to build a mansion
for him in Aki...
410
00:31:08,490 --> 00:31:14,520
...and treat him with care
as his guest for good.
411
00:31:14,520 --> 00:31:16,660
I, Amago Yoshihisa...
412
00:31:17,590 --> 00:31:18,810
...will follow...
413
00:31:19,450 --> 00:31:24,990
...the Mori clan's instructions.
414
00:31:30,100 --> 00:31:33,530
The Mori army beat their archrival, the Amago.
415
00:31:33,810 --> 00:31:37,540
They triumphantly returned
to Koriyama Castle, Yoshida.
416
00:31:37,790 --> 00:31:41,160
Despite his illness,
Motonari gallantly returned there, too.
417
00:31:41,580 --> 00:31:45,730
KORIYAMA CASTLE (Aki)
418
00:31:46,670 --> 00:31:48,310
Everyone.
419
00:31:50,320 --> 00:31:53,280
It was a long battle.
420
00:31:53,770 --> 00:31:56,920
Thanks for helping me.
421
00:31:59,180 --> 00:32:03,370
With Gassan-Toda Castle now,
422
00:32:03,660 --> 00:32:10,180
the Mori have blown up even bigger.
423
00:32:10,900 --> 00:32:12,440
From now on,
424
00:32:12,920 --> 00:32:17,880
we must try to
manage our clan more carefully.
425
00:32:18,310 --> 00:32:23,210
If we don't,
we'll surely become a giant...
426
00:32:23,520 --> 00:32:26,790
...that is destined to collapse by itself.
427
00:32:28,820 --> 00:32:30,630
Therefore,
428
00:32:31,780 --> 00:32:34,360
I'm thinking of...
429
00:32:35,570 --> 00:32:41,110
...calling Akagawa Motoyasu back
from Akama-ga-seki.
430
00:32:41,440 --> 00:32:43,720
That's a great idea.
431
00:32:44,950 --> 00:32:49,930
Nobody doubts him anymore.
432
00:32:53,680 --> 00:32:54,360
Great Lord.
433
00:32:55,250 --> 00:32:56,860
Actually,
434
00:32:57,140 --> 00:32:59,740
I have a letter from him.
435
00:33:01,530 --> 00:33:05,310
He asked me to keep it for a while...
436
00:33:05,630 --> 00:33:09,440
...so that I can give it to you right now.
437
00:33:21,470 --> 00:33:24,570
It's a farewell letter.
438
00:33:25,630 --> 00:33:26,780
Don't tell me...
439
00:33:26,990 --> 00:33:29,430
He slit his belly...?
440
00:33:35,620 --> 00:33:40,820
"I respectfully announce that..."
441
00:33:41,820 --> 00:33:47,370
"...I am going to join Takamoto-dono
after finishing my last service."
442
00:33:48,940 --> 00:33:53,290
"I, Motoyasu, discussed with
Takamoto-dono every night..."
443
00:33:53,880 --> 00:33:56,800
"...talking about our dream of
ruling Japan together."
444
00:33:57,870 --> 00:34:03,940
"My dream doesn't come true under the Great Lord,
who chose not to go after rulership."
445
00:34:03,940 --> 00:34:06,150
"However, I am satisfied now..."
446
00:34:06,380 --> 00:34:09,850
"...because I lived a full life."
447
00:34:12,530 --> 00:34:13,880
"Great Lord."
448
00:34:14,960 --> 00:34:18,120
"You are free not to go after rulership,"
449
00:34:18,400 --> 00:34:22,570
"but I want you to make
the Mori grow stronger."
450
00:34:22,790 --> 00:34:25,290
"In Eastern Japan,"
451
00:34:25,290 --> 00:34:29,590
"there are numerous
snakes and vipers now."
452
00:34:29,800 --> 00:34:33,700
"Especially, I see
Oda Nobunaga in Owari as..."
453
00:34:33,960 --> 00:34:36,660
"...a man with unparalleled power."
454
00:34:36,660 --> 00:34:39,300
"If you don't make the Mori grow stronger,"
455
00:34:39,560 --> 00:34:44,380
"Aki Province will be stomped by
those who are after rulership."
456
00:34:45,120 --> 00:34:50,560
"Please understand
Takamoto-dono and my wishes."
457
00:34:51,420 --> 00:34:57,700
"And build a stronger, much stronger clan."
458
00:34:57,700 --> 00:35:00,960
"I, Motoyasu, was happy..."
459
00:35:00,960 --> 00:35:04,620
"...for having served for the Mori clan."
460
00:35:17,910 --> 00:35:22,770
Akagawa, Kodama and Katsura.
461
00:35:25,850 --> 00:35:31,400
I employed three of you on the same day.
462
00:35:31,400 --> 00:35:33,990
I still remember.
463
00:35:35,210 --> 00:35:37,210
We were all young.
464
00:35:39,690 --> 00:35:42,990
One of the fires burnt out.
465
00:35:45,730 --> 00:35:47,530
The remaining two...
466
00:35:48,250 --> 00:35:51,230
...don't have energy of their youth.
467
00:35:56,800 --> 00:35:57,800
But...
468
00:35:58,330 --> 00:35:59,130
That's not bad.
469
00:36:10,880 --> 00:36:15,960
The life of man has four seasons.
470
00:36:16,970 --> 00:36:19,470
That's why it's interesting.
471
00:36:20,640 --> 00:36:22,340
Lush green spring.
472
00:36:22,630 --> 00:36:24,490
Red hot summer.
473
00:36:25,180 --> 00:36:27,250
White and calm fall.
474
00:36:30,500 --> 00:36:31,810
And winter?
475
00:36:32,490 --> 00:36:35,210
What's the winter in man's life?
476
00:36:35,500 --> 00:36:38,500
It can't be dyed in any color.
477
00:36:38,750 --> 00:36:42,760
Those who lived well
in spring, summer and fall...
478
00:36:43,140 --> 00:36:45,740
...they can become gold, lazuline...
479
00:36:45,960 --> 00:36:47,550
...or any color.
480
00:36:49,120 --> 00:36:50,850
Not bad.
481
00:36:52,420 --> 00:36:58,750
Akagawa-dono picked his favorite color...
482
00:36:59,290 --> 00:37:02,950
...to put a marvelous end to his winter.
483
00:37:04,890 --> 00:37:06,950
It's auspicious.
484
00:37:27,470 --> 00:37:28,170
I found it.
485
00:37:28,380 --> 00:37:29,970
This one.
486
00:37:29,970 --> 00:37:30,700
This...
487
00:37:35,270 --> 00:37:36,410
Tae.
488
00:37:36,690 --> 00:37:37,910
I'm coming in.
489
00:37:38,770 --> 00:37:39,850
Wh...
490
00:37:40,330 --> 00:37:41,600
Wh... what...
491
00:37:41,930 --> 00:37:44,100
...kind of mess is this?
492
00:37:44,320 --> 00:37:45,460
Hey.
493
00:37:45,770 --> 00:37:47,590
Even a dump yard is...
494
00:37:47,970 --> 00:37:49,730
...cleaner than your room.
495
00:37:49,970 --> 00:37:51,570
Perpetual youth and longevity...
496
00:37:51,810 --> 00:37:55,660
...creates a real mess.
I didn't know that.
497
00:37:56,910 --> 00:37:58,830
Don't get weak-hearted.
498
00:37:59,190 --> 00:38:00,220
Hey.
499
00:38:01,570 --> 00:38:03,890
- Tae.
- Yes?
500
00:38:07,530 --> 00:38:10,900
They're all dead, you know?
501
00:38:12,160 --> 00:38:14,870
Enemies and allies.
502
00:38:16,520 --> 00:38:21,170
People who lived
the same decades with me...
503
00:38:21,430 --> 00:38:24,900
They are all gone.
504
00:38:25,660 --> 00:38:31,150
Yuki-dono's clan, the Takahashi,
went away.
505
00:38:32,850 --> 00:38:38,220
I fought against the Takeda
during my first battle.
506
00:38:38,500 --> 00:38:41,420
They're gone, too.
507
00:38:41,730 --> 00:38:46,770
Even the flamboyant Ouchi...
508
00:38:47,730 --> 00:38:49,980
...vanished.
509
00:38:51,240 --> 00:38:57,250
If the Amago disappears now,
510
00:38:58,280 --> 00:39:04,380
all of them, who lived in
the same period with me,
511
00:39:04,670 --> 00:39:06,700
will go away.
512
00:39:08,170 --> 00:39:11,620
I'll feel lonely...
513
00:39:11,910 --> 00:39:15,200
...if I'm left all by myself.
514
00:39:15,460 --> 00:39:18,970
I'm telling you not to get weak-hearted.
515
00:39:19,640 --> 00:39:21,450
You're not alone.
516
00:39:21,940 --> 00:39:24,540
You have me, you know?
517
00:39:24,940 --> 00:39:29,360
Still, I'm lonely.
518
00:39:31,730 --> 00:39:32,230
I...
519
00:39:34,220 --> 00:39:37,720
...don't want to live to be 150.
520
00:39:37,970 --> 00:39:39,330
Great Lord.
521
00:39:39,870 --> 00:39:41,540
I don't think...
522
00:39:41,540 --> 00:39:45,160
...you can really live to age 150.
523
00:39:45,370 --> 00:39:47,710
I just want...
524
00:39:47,710 --> 00:39:52,410
...you to die one day before me.
Only one day.
525
00:39:52,650 --> 00:39:56,650
That's why I'm trying to master
the art of perpetual youth and longevity...
526
00:39:56,970 --> 00:39:59,200
...and cure the illnesses you have now.
527
00:39:59,870 --> 00:40:00,830
Hey.
528
00:40:01,580 --> 00:40:02,580
Tae.
529
00:40:04,200 --> 00:40:08,320
You know how I'm feeling, don't you?
530
00:40:08,620 --> 00:40:09,890
Hey, Tae.
531
00:40:10,410 --> 00:40:12,260
Come over here.
532
00:40:13,600 --> 00:40:15,530
I wanted to make...
533
00:40:15,840 --> 00:40:24,220
...a clan where I can have an ordinary
life with my family and vassals.
534
00:40:24,610 --> 00:40:28,260
I did my best for that.
535
00:40:29,370 --> 00:40:34,100
Then, my clan got big like this.
536
00:40:35,980 --> 00:40:36,390
Tae.
537
00:40:38,120 --> 00:40:41,500
What an unfortunate man I am.
538
00:40:42,140 --> 00:40:44,640
Most people would enjoy it.
539
00:40:44,640 --> 00:40:47,120
No, I can't enjoy.
540
00:40:47,670 --> 00:40:50,960
Terumoto is just bratty.
541
00:40:51,270 --> 00:40:53,990
Can't you leave things to him?
542
00:40:54,230 --> 00:40:57,310
I don't want to see...
543
00:40:57,570 --> 00:41:01,540
...us losing something we already gained.
544
00:41:01,750 --> 00:41:04,600
Then, you should hurry and die.
545
00:41:04,940 --> 00:41:07,450
You don't have to see
anything after you die.
546
00:41:07,710 --> 00:41:10,770
Don't say such cold things.
547
00:41:11,940 --> 00:41:15,570
I'm sick.
How can you be like that?
548
00:41:15,820 --> 00:41:19,490
Then, you should live forever.
549
00:41:20,440 --> 00:41:23,140
Stay alive to see Terumoto-sama's children...
550
00:41:23,520 --> 00:41:26,330
....grandchildren and great-grandchildren.
551
00:41:26,690 --> 00:41:30,580
Live for 1,000 and 2,000 years...
552
00:41:30,580 --> 00:41:34,850
...to protect the Mori all by yourself.
553
00:41:45,950 --> 00:41:48,570
Trust young people.
554
00:41:49,500 --> 00:41:51,860
Young people are...
555
00:41:51,860 --> 00:41:56,450
...much more capable
than you think, Great Lord.
556
00:41:58,290 --> 00:42:00,210
Get well soon and...
557
00:42:01,530 --> 00:42:08,120
...regain strength to die
only one day before me.
558
00:42:08,120 --> 00:42:10,410
Got that?
559
00:42:11,540 --> 00:42:14,890
Only one day before me.
560
00:42:16,450 --> 00:42:18,100
If you die two or more days before me,
561
00:42:18,320 --> 00:42:20,410
I won't forgive you.
562
00:42:27,710 --> 00:42:29,540
- There!
- Ouch!
563
00:42:29,750 --> 00:42:32,310
It hurts, Great Lord.
564
00:42:33,280 --> 00:42:36,930
To have a long,
mundane and ordinary life,
565
00:42:37,180 --> 00:42:41,860
Motonari kept shaking off
the fire sparks falling over him.
566
00:42:42,110 --> 00:42:44,600
After his long journey,
567
00:42:44,600 --> 00:42:52,300
he became known across Japan as the most
powerful daimyo lord in the Chugoku Region.
568
