Would you like to inspect the original subtitles? These are the user uploaded subtitles that are being translated:
1
00:00:11,177 --> 00:00:15,785
Sales tax is Japan's
controversial object of tax reform.
2
00:00:16,182 --> 00:00:20,995
400 years ago, tax reform
occurred a grand scale.
3
00:00:23,023 --> 00:00:26,197
It was the "Taiko Kenchi"
effected by Hideyoshi.
4
00:00:28,862 --> 00:00:33,699
Even new territory was
thoroughly surveyed,
5
00:00:33,699 --> 00:00:36,044
and recorded
in a register.
6
00:00:36,936 --> 00:00:42,909
Thus, secrets of rich
farmers were discovered,
7
00:00:43,410 --> 00:00:46,721
and instances of tax
evasion were exposed.
8
00:00:49,549 --> 00:00:52,251
Land units were also revised.
9
00:00:52,251 --> 00:00:58,760
Plots were decreased from
1,440 to 1,200 square yards.
10
00:00:59,859 --> 00:01:03,033
This increased the taxes
of the farmers.
11
00:01:06,666 --> 00:01:11,370
Dissatisfied with this
system and their new rulers,
12
00:01:11,370 --> 00:01:17,049
Tohoku farmers, lords, and
landed samurai rioted.
13
00:01:19,179 --> 00:01:23,215
Under Hideyoshi's orders, rivals
Date Masamune and Gamo Ujisato...
14
00:01:23,215 --> 00:01:27,164
were sent to quell
the uprisings.
15
00:01:28,321 --> 00:01:32,167
Knowing how the people
suffered,
16
00:01:32,425 --> 00:01:35,702
Masamune went, ashamed
to carry out his orders.
17
00:01:38,310 --> 00:01:44,830
MASAMUNE, THE ONE-EYED DRAGON
18
00:01:45,538 --> 00:01:50,647
Episode 26:
Journey of Doom
19
00:04:16,489 --> 00:04:17,449
Open up!
20
00:04:24,864 --> 00:04:28,311
In the morning,
Gamo Ujisato and Masamune...
21
00:04:28,901 --> 00:04:34,214
planned to attack the rioters
in Takashimizu Castle.
22
00:04:43,249 --> 00:04:45,490
Sire!
It's Genzaemon!
23
00:04:46,152 --> 00:04:47,222
What is it?
24
00:04:49,922 --> 00:04:51,993
I acquired a secret
letter from Masamune!
25
00:04:53,693 --> 00:04:55,195
Secret letter?
26
00:05:03,336 --> 00:05:06,371
Date retainer, Suda Hoki,
came to my camp,
27
00:05:06,371 --> 00:05:08,682
and asked us to
give this to you.
28
00:05:21,321 --> 00:05:22,821
This isn't a forgery?
29
00:05:22,821 --> 00:05:26,133
The written seal is
definitely Masamune's.
30
00:05:26,859 --> 00:05:30,595
Suda was sent to deliver
this to Myoo Castle,
31
00:05:30,595 --> 00:05:33,167
but he defected
to our side.
32
00:05:34,500 --> 00:05:38,380
Quite likely. It's written
in a skillful hand.
33
00:05:40,406 --> 00:05:43,442
"When Gamo forces attack
Takashimizu tomorrow,
34
00:05:43,442 --> 00:05:49,514
"strike them from the rear...
Masamune."
35
00:05:49,514 --> 00:05:50,926
What?
36
00:05:51,918 --> 00:05:56,060
The wagtail seal is
definitely Masamune's!
37
00:05:58,257 --> 00:06:01,670
It's addressed to Bessho Awaji,
leader of the rebels!
38
00:06:02,495 --> 00:06:03,962
Damn!
39
00:06:03,962 --> 00:06:06,944
So Masamune is
conspiring with them!
40
00:06:07,767 --> 00:06:12,304
Bastard.
We must slaughter him!
41
00:06:12,304 --> 00:06:13,716
Wait!
42
00:06:15,375 --> 00:06:19,187
We're outnumbered.
We'd be helpless.
43
00:06:19,912 --> 00:06:23,018
If we wait,
we'll be surrounded!
44
00:06:28,821 --> 00:06:31,289
Ujisato went without us?
45
00:06:31,289 --> 00:06:35,026
He bypassed Takashimizu
and attacked Myoo Castle!
46
00:06:35,026 --> 00:06:37,130
That wasn't the plan!
47
00:06:37,130 --> 00:06:40,399
He means to confuse us
and cut us out.
48
00:06:40,399 --> 00:06:42,934
Send a messenger to Gamo.
49
00:06:42,934 --> 00:06:45,604
Get an explanation!
50
00:06:45,604 --> 00:06:48,108
Shigezane,
prepare for battle!
51
00:06:57,417 --> 00:07:00,921
Surprised by Ujisato's
puzzling move,
52
00:07:01,320 --> 00:07:04,767
Masamune was forced to fight
the rioters in earnest.
53
00:07:08,261 --> 00:07:13,040
Alerted by the secret letter, Ujisato
took Myoo Castle from the rioters,
54
00:07:13,566 --> 00:07:19,607
and kept Masamune
under surveillance.
55
00:07:21,707 --> 00:07:23,209
Sire!
56
00:07:26,779 --> 00:07:30,022
The Date took Takashimizu
and Miyazawa.
57
00:07:30,383 --> 00:07:31,817
What?
58
00:07:31,817 --> 00:07:36,460
The rioters voluntarily
surrendered the castles!
59
00:07:37,590 --> 00:07:39,536
I'm not surprised!
60
00:07:41,160 --> 00:07:44,471
Our real enemy is Masamune.
61
00:07:44,897 --> 00:07:47,138
Be very careful.
62
00:07:47,767 --> 00:07:50,907
For now, just keep watch.
63
00:07:51,404 --> 00:07:55,674
Send spies to watch the Date.
64
00:07:55,674 --> 00:07:57,313
Yes, sir!
65
00:08:03,216 --> 00:08:08,666
With a great army, Masamune surrounded
Sanuma Castle, the main base of the rioters.
66
00:08:09,188 --> 00:08:13,091
Having a secret understanding
with Masamune,
67
00:08:13,091 --> 00:08:17,837
the rioters freed Kimura Yoshikiyo
and his son and left the castle.
68
00:08:20,600 --> 00:08:27,703
The Kimuras asked to report
to Lord Gamo about the riot.
69
00:08:28,207 --> 00:08:33,088
Never hesitating, Masamune
sent them to Myoo Castle.
70
00:08:42,722 --> 00:08:47,535
Thank you for braving
the cold to come so far!
71
00:08:48,261 --> 00:08:53,261
We narrowly escaped
with our lives,
72
00:08:53,933 --> 00:08:56,379
and we owe it
entirely to you, sir.
73
00:08:57,103 --> 00:09:00,050
Congratulations.
74
00:09:00,606 --> 00:09:03,074
You bore it well.
75
00:09:03,074 --> 00:09:08,457
Out of anger, we thought
to kill ourselves many times.
76
00:09:09,282 --> 00:09:12,350
The rioters are not
noble samurai.
77
00:09:12,350 --> 00:09:15,594
They locked us up and
jeered at us.
78
00:09:15,855 --> 00:09:18,023
We were hardly fed!
79
00:09:18,023 --> 00:09:19,867
It can't be helped.
80
00:09:20,793 --> 00:09:25,105
This arose out of
your incompetence.
81
00:09:26,198 --> 00:09:30,374
Your retainers hid behind
the regent's protection...
82
00:09:30,803 --> 00:09:32,148
to steal the people's money.
83
00:09:32,974 --> 00:09:39,711
Any woman they could lay
their hands on, they raped!
84
00:09:39,711 --> 00:09:41,246
Never...!
85
00:09:41,246 --> 00:09:43,193
It's been investigated!
86
00:09:46,786 --> 00:09:49,130
Forgive us.
87
00:09:49,689 --> 00:09:52,670
Please keep it confidential.
88
00:09:53,626 --> 00:09:58,439
Anyhow, have some
food and rest.
89
00:09:59,131 --> 00:10:01,366
Thank you for
your kindness.
90
00:10:01,366 --> 00:10:07,545
However, we have been generously
entertained at Lord Date's camp.
91
00:10:08,174 --> 00:10:10,875
We shall now return
to Sanuma,
92
00:10:10,875 --> 00:10:15,146
re-establish our camp
and punish the traitors.
93
00:10:15,146 --> 00:10:15,896
No!
94
00:10:17,783 --> 00:10:21,356
With your men, you could
never control the rioters.
95
00:10:22,421 --> 00:10:25,493
You will have to
stay here at Myoo.
96
00:10:25,858 --> 00:10:27,258
Fear not!
97
00:10:27,258 --> 00:10:31,029
I'll stake my honor
on regaining my lands!
98
00:10:31,029 --> 00:10:35,103
Lord Date has promised
to send reinforcements.
99
00:10:37,103 --> 00:10:41,206
Lord Date's power is
known throughout the north.
100
00:10:41,206 --> 00:10:44,745
The enemy flee when
they see his insignia.
101
00:10:45,478 --> 00:10:46,980
Ridiculous!
102
00:10:47,713 --> 00:10:50,081
You don't know anything.
103
00:10:50,081 --> 00:10:52,722
No man is more conniving
than Lord Date.
104
00:10:53,386 --> 00:10:54,819
What?
105
00:10:54,819 --> 00:10:59,633
He conspires with the
rioters to destroy us.
106
00:11:01,360 --> 00:11:03,465
You're badly mistaken.
107
00:11:03,929 --> 00:11:06,197
When he came to save us,
108
00:11:06,197 --> 00:11:11,773
Lord Date rode into the castle,
calling our names.
109
00:11:12,872 --> 00:11:18,481
When he found us, he took
our hands and wept for joy!
110
00:11:20,112 --> 00:11:22,023
Don't be fooled.
111
00:11:22,682 --> 00:11:29,964
Masamune lit the fire himself.
And put it out himself.
112
00:11:30,823 --> 00:11:32,632
I beg to differ...!
113
00:11:34,126 --> 00:11:36,333
You're a fool!
114
00:11:38,297 --> 00:11:43,406
We intercepted a secret
letter from Masamune.
115
00:11:58,150 --> 00:12:00,960
What's Ujisato trying to do?
116
00:12:06,392 --> 00:12:09,373
He's working against us.
117
00:12:10,096 --> 00:12:12,864
He avoids war council,
saying he's ill,
118
00:12:12,864 --> 00:12:14,733
and won't return the
Kimuras to Sanuma.
119
00:12:14,733 --> 00:12:18,503
Perhaps he believes
you tried to poison him.
120
00:12:18,503 --> 00:12:22,281
How weak.
To be frightened by that.
121
00:12:22,281 --> 00:12:25,310
We'll just have to be patient.
122
00:12:25,310 --> 00:12:27,579
We can't move in this snow.
123
00:12:27,579 --> 00:12:29,321
Yes, sire.
124
00:12:30,850 --> 00:12:32,523
Pardon!
125
00:12:33,018 --> 00:12:35,089
A letter from Nihonmatsu.
126
00:12:41,393 --> 00:12:43,600
- Who sent it?
- Lord Asano.
127
00:13:01,280 --> 00:13:03,114
Suda Hoki turned traitor!
128
00:13:03,114 --> 00:13:04,856
Is that true?
129
00:13:05,918 --> 00:13:10,196
He took my secret letter
to Gamo's camp!
130
00:13:25,871 --> 00:13:28,579
The situation being serious,
Masamune sent an explanation...
131
00:13:28,874 --> 00:13:35,824
to Asano Nagamasa,
Hideyoshi's representative.
132
00:13:41,262 --> 00:13:45,232
JURAKUDAI, KYOTO
133
00:13:49,662 --> 00:13:54,335
Woman, come forward.
134
00:14:03,175 --> 00:14:04,483
Your name?
135
00:14:06,045 --> 00:14:08,616
What is your name?
136
00:14:10,249 --> 00:14:13,585
I am Mego,
wife of Date Masamune.
137
00:14:13,585 --> 00:14:15,532
Is that correct?
138
00:14:16,689 --> 00:14:18,323
Yes.
139
00:14:18,323 --> 00:14:19,928
You'd better not be lying.
140
00:14:21,393 --> 00:14:26,069
We do not understand
these questions.
141
00:14:32,271 --> 00:14:36,207
Lord Date supported the
riots in Osaki and Kasai,
142
00:14:36,207 --> 00:14:39,018
and rose up against the regent.
143
00:14:40,479 --> 00:14:44,716
He incited the rebels,
and has cornered Gamo Ujisato.
144
00:14:44,716 --> 00:14:46,526
Please wait!
145
00:14:47,486 --> 00:14:49,261
As you know,
146
00:14:49,989 --> 00:14:54,989
the Date have sworn to serve
the regent, with never-ending loyalty.
147
00:14:55,494 --> 00:14:58,296
There must be some mistake!
148
00:14:58,296 --> 00:14:59,776
Silence!
149
00:15:01,500 --> 00:15:03,002
We have undeniable proof.
150
00:15:03,669 --> 00:15:06,081
A letter from Masamune.
151
00:15:08,707 --> 00:15:13,884
Please investigate carefully.
152
00:15:15,514 --> 00:15:20,514
After many battles,
a warlord has numerous enemies.
153
00:15:21,520 --> 00:15:24,831
This might be a
false accusation!
154
00:15:25,257 --> 00:15:28,033
- False accusation?
- Yes!
155
00:15:28,928 --> 00:15:34,370
The Date live by noblest
ideals of the samurai.
156
00:15:35,768 --> 00:15:37,769
Don't be conceited.
157
00:15:37,769 --> 00:15:40,216
Forgive my impertinence!
158
00:15:41,340 --> 00:15:46,244
However, my lord would
never betray the regent.
159
00:15:46,244 --> 00:15:49,158
It is unthinkable!
160
00:15:50,082 --> 00:15:51,883
To prove his loyalty,
161
00:15:51,883 --> 00:15:56,788
he has obeyed the regent
and sent Lady Mego to Kyoto!
162
00:15:56,788 --> 00:16:00,202
You dare lie before the regent?
163
00:16:02,294 --> 00:16:06,106
Masamune must have
sent an imposter.
164
00:16:06,999 --> 00:16:08,535
Imposter?
166
00:16:33,592 --> 00:16:35,401
Raise your head.
167
00:16:43,469 --> 00:16:44,769
Your name?
168
00:16:44,769 --> 00:16:49,040
Mego, wife of
Date Masamune.
169
00:16:49,040 --> 00:16:51,909
Don't lie!
Give your real name!
170
00:16:51,909 --> 00:16:53,911
She is Lady Mego!
171
00:16:53,911 --> 00:16:56,654
You insist on lying?
172
00:16:59,418 --> 00:17:01,921
I, Ishida Mitsunari,
will investigate.
173
00:17:03,722 --> 00:17:06,225
I said no more,
Lord Masamune is...!
174
00:17:34,386 --> 00:17:35,956
Stop!
175
00:17:40,426 --> 00:17:44,101
Stay in your quarters
till further notice.
176
00:18:01,513 --> 00:18:03,459
She's the real thing.
177
00:18:05,684 --> 00:18:08,494
Her eyes weren't lying.
178
00:18:09,354 --> 00:18:14,303
I think she is an imposter.
179
00:18:14,303 --> 00:18:19,707
If she were his real wife, Masamune
would not let her die so easily.
180
00:18:21,834 --> 00:18:24,747
Her eyes showed no fear.
181
00:18:25,671 --> 00:18:28,948
Neither is Masamune
an ordinary youth.
182
00:18:30,976 --> 00:18:33,013
He banished his
own mother...
183
00:18:33,479 --> 00:18:40,124
and killed his brother
with his own hands.
184
00:18:42,187 --> 00:18:50,368
He would not show special
mercy to a wife.
185
00:18:52,064 --> 00:18:54,704
You are absolutely right.
186
00:18:55,901 --> 00:18:59,371
Masamune is inhuman.
187
00:18:59,805 --> 00:19:01,580
But...
188
00:19:03,008 --> 00:19:05,420
What a fine woman she is.
189
00:19:07,479 --> 00:19:11,120
Those eyes...
190
00:19:14,453 --> 00:19:19,157
Masamune has long been
known for his cruelty!
191
00:19:19,157 --> 00:19:21,798
That's Masamune's way.
192
00:19:28,901 --> 00:19:30,718
That Ujisato...
193
00:19:31,901 --> 00:19:36,718
Complaining because Masamune
took the initiative...!
194
00:19:42,047 --> 00:19:44,152
Good-for-nothing wretch.
195
00:19:52,558 --> 00:19:54,725
Lord Asano sent a message.
196
00:19:54,725 --> 00:20:00,267
The Date will control this territory.
You are to leave for Aizu.
197
00:20:00,666 --> 00:20:04,235
Preposterous!
198
00:20:04,235 --> 00:20:07,683
Osaki and Kasai belong to me!
199
00:20:08,740 --> 00:20:10,841
They are beyond your ability.
200
00:20:10,841 --> 00:20:14,612
I'll not bungle it again!
201
00:20:14,612 --> 00:20:18,115
It's a disgrace
to be sent away!
202
00:20:18,115 --> 00:20:20,251
I share your disgrace.
203
00:20:20,251 --> 00:20:22,086
However, it's foolish...
204
00:20:22,086 --> 00:20:26,297
to fight the Date
in this snow.
205
00:20:30,862 --> 00:20:32,933
Fear not.
206
00:20:33,465 --> 00:20:35,833
Masamune will be
summoned to Kyoto...
207
00:20:35,833 --> 00:20:39,338
and beheaded for treason!
208
00:20:40,672 --> 00:20:45,121
If he does not go to Kyoto,
we can defeat him in spring.
209
00:20:47,145 --> 00:20:48,886
Sire...
210
00:20:49,548 --> 00:20:52,461
You said we should
go to Aizu,
211
00:20:53,151 --> 00:20:56,724
but the Date will
not let us pass.
212
00:20:58,657 --> 00:21:02,070
That's a major consideration.
213
00:21:09,268 --> 00:21:11,976
- A guide?
- Yes.
214
00:21:12,537 --> 00:21:15,039
They leave Myoo Castle tomorrow.
215
00:21:15,039 --> 00:21:21,120
They ask that Date Shigezane
or Rusu Masakage guide them.
216
00:21:21,780 --> 00:21:24,454
- A convenient hostage!
- Refuse them!
217
00:21:25,183 --> 00:21:28,687
- It might not be wise.
- Uncle...
218
00:21:29,321 --> 00:21:31,255
Unless we send a hostage,
219
00:21:31,255 --> 00:21:36,535
Ujisato will ask Kyoto
to send reinforcements.
220
00:21:37,129 --> 00:21:40,665
That would worsen
our position.
221
00:21:40,665 --> 00:21:43,340
- I'll go.
- Wait!
222
00:21:43,669 --> 00:21:46,404
If I don't go, we'll be
ridiculed as cowards!
223
00:21:46,404 --> 00:21:49,682
- You're falling into their hands!
- We must bear it!
224
00:21:50,742 --> 00:21:57,181
Ujisato can destroy
the Date with one word.
225
00:21:57,181 --> 00:22:00,356
But we can't let
Gamo have his way!
227
00:22:05,357 --> 00:22:08,459
Morishige...
You're the hostage!
228
00:22:08,459 --> 00:22:08,959
I?
229
00:22:14,666 --> 00:22:16,567
Kokubun Morishige?
230
00:22:16,567 --> 00:22:21,347
Masamune's uncle, the lord
of Kokubun Castle.
231
00:22:22,374 --> 00:22:27,847
Impudent wretch! Is Masamune
trying to make a fool of me?!
232
00:22:28,380 --> 00:22:34,262
He's probably sending
Morishige to spy on you.
233
00:22:34,786 --> 00:22:37,054
What a coward.
234
00:22:37,054 --> 00:22:38,932
Send him away!
235
00:22:40,392 --> 00:22:45,603
I won't have anyone but
Shigezane or Masakage!
236
00:22:48,767 --> 00:22:50,974
I should've gone!
237
00:22:51,303 --> 00:22:53,270
Swell-headed wretch!
238
00:22:53,270 --> 00:22:56,150
We must act soon.
239
00:22:56,150 --> 00:22:58,909
The longer we wait,
the better it will be for Gamo.
240
00:22:58,909 --> 00:23:03,120
It's YOUR fault
for coming back!
241
00:23:18,163 --> 00:23:22,771
What's wrong?
Please eat.
242
00:23:25,103 --> 00:23:27,276
What do you think?
243
00:23:29,040 --> 00:23:36,686
Did our lord really
turn against the regent?
244
00:23:37,616 --> 00:23:40,324
A false charge.
245
00:23:41,520 --> 00:23:44,588
Kyoto daimyo are arrogant.
246
00:23:44,588 --> 00:23:49,698
They look down upon new daimyo,
and find fault with everything they do.
247
00:23:53,064 --> 00:23:55,066
Don't worry.
248
00:23:55,967 --> 00:23:58,669
Our lord would never
turn traitor...
249
00:23:58,669 --> 00:24:02,072
with his dear wife
in Kyoto.
250
00:24:02,072 --> 00:24:04,280
That will never do.
251
00:24:06,011 --> 00:24:15,654
There are times when a lord
must fight for his honor.
252
00:24:17,189 --> 00:24:20,227
I don't wish to
hold our lord back.
253
00:24:21,560 --> 00:24:26,066
Your admirable resolve
is touching, my lady.
254
00:24:27,766 --> 00:24:31,179
However, our lord would
never abandon you.
255
00:24:32,838 --> 00:24:35,580
It's Naonobu.
256
00:24:35,580 --> 00:24:37,151
What is it?
257
00:24:40,912 --> 00:24:44,215
Tamura retainer,
Makaidate Takumi,
258
00:24:44,215 --> 00:24:46,890
wishes to see Lady Mego.
259
00:24:47,219 --> 00:24:49,665
Our retainer from Miharu?
260
00:24:55,794 --> 00:24:57,330
She is here.
261
00:25:03,001 --> 00:25:06,107
Sir Takumi!
How nice to see you!
262
00:25:07,639 --> 00:25:11,485
You are truly Lady Mego!
263
00:25:16,081 --> 00:25:17,992
Are you well?
264
00:25:22,420 --> 00:25:25,401
It's nice to see you.
265
00:25:25,757 --> 00:25:30,060
I couldn't be happier to have
this honor of seeing you!
266
00:25:30,060 --> 00:25:33,731
Till I beheld you,
267
00:25:33,731 --> 00:25:46,054
my heart was filled with
needless doubt and anxiety.
268
00:25:46,411 --> 00:25:51,451
But now, I can breathe
a sigh of relief!
269
00:25:52,384 --> 00:25:57,424
What do you mean,
"needless doubt"?
270
00:25:59,024 --> 00:26:03,097
There is an outrageous
rumor in the town...
271
00:26:03,097 --> 00:26:09,700
that the wife of Lord Date
is an imposter!
272
00:26:09,700 --> 00:26:11,835
I know.
273
00:26:11,835 --> 00:26:13,515
Wishing to learn the truth,
274
00:26:13,515 --> 00:26:23,922
the magistrates of Jurakudai
summoned me to find out.
275
00:26:24,349 --> 00:26:28,052
Do you serve the regent now?
276
00:26:28,052 --> 00:26:28,772
Never!
277
00:26:30,355 --> 00:26:35,327
I will serve the Tamura till I die.
278
00:26:37,896 --> 00:26:40,502
What is your business in Kyoto?
279
00:26:40,932 --> 00:26:43,742
I am glad you asked.
280
00:26:44,402 --> 00:26:48,939
As you know, the Tamura
arrived late at Odawara,
281
00:26:48,939 --> 00:26:53,582
and their lands are
to be confiscated.
282
00:26:54,846 --> 00:26:56,981
Our lord, Muneaki,
283
00:26:56,981 --> 00:27:02,593
is loath to give our lands
to daimyo of the west.
284
00:27:02,982 --> 00:27:07,593
He wishes to relinquish them
to Lord Date, his relative.
285
00:27:07,892 --> 00:27:13,638
He came to Kyoto to persuade
the regent's advisors.
286
00:27:15,533 --> 00:27:17,635
Thank you for
accompanying him.
287
00:27:17,635 --> 00:27:20,104
However...
288
00:27:20,104 --> 00:27:23,674
after coming all
the way from Takuma,
289
00:27:23,674 --> 00:27:25,175
we were astonished
to learn that...
290
00:27:25,175 --> 00:27:28,675
Date Masamune turned
traitor in Osaki and Kasai!
291
00:27:29,280 --> 00:27:30,680
We lost our only hope and...
292
00:27:38,657 --> 00:27:41,638
The truth is not known yet.
293
00:27:42,627 --> 00:27:45,696
Just as they say Lady Mego
is an imposter,
294
00:27:45,696 --> 00:27:49,199
people enjoy tall tales.
295
00:27:49,199 --> 00:27:51,908
They claim there is
undeniable proof.
296
00:27:52,637 --> 00:27:55,015
We cannot readily
accept that.
297
00:27:55,015 --> 00:27:58,075
The regent is furious.
298
00:27:58,075 --> 00:28:03,116
He demands that Lord Date
appear before him.
299
00:28:03,116 --> 00:28:06,991
Our lord is coming to Kyoto?
300
00:28:07,719 --> 00:28:10,454
If he is innocent of treason,
301
00:28:10,454 --> 00:28:14,267
he must prove it to the regent.
302
00:28:15,760 --> 00:28:18,400
Let me ask...
303
00:28:19,364 --> 00:28:22,004
It's fine, if they
are only rumors,
304
00:28:22,600 --> 00:28:27,777
but what will you do,
if it is true?
305
00:28:29,908 --> 00:28:32,445
I am a samurai wife.
306
00:28:33,211 --> 00:28:37,523
Rather than live in shame,
I would kill myself.
307
00:28:38,216 --> 00:28:41,857
Noble words, my lady.
308
00:28:42,353 --> 00:28:45,823
You are truly a faithful wife.
309
00:28:46,691 --> 00:28:49,562
I, Mukaidate Takumi,
310
00:28:49,562 --> 00:28:58,572
will give my last ounce of strength
to aid the Date and Tamura!
311
00:29:03,580 --> 00:29:04,900
MYOO CASTLE
312
00:29:08,580 --> 00:29:13,580
I am Date Shigezane.
I shall serve as guide...
313
00:29:14,786 --> 00:29:17,955
Having been summoned to Kyoto,
314
00:29:17,955 --> 00:29:21,267
Masamune was forced to
send Shigezane as hostage.
315
00:29:21,559 --> 00:29:24,768
Gamo Ujisato left Myoo Castle
the following morning.
316
00:29:30,068 --> 00:29:33,504
Masamune hurriedly
left for Kyoto.
317
00:29:33,504 --> 00:29:36,850
On the way, he visited
Asano Nagamasa in Nihonmatsu.
318
00:29:40,345 --> 00:29:46,884
Poisoned? Lord Gamo
draws rash conclusions.
319
00:29:46,884 --> 00:29:49,419
What about the secret letter?
320
00:29:49,419 --> 00:29:55,598
As stated in my many letters,
it is definitely a false charge.
321
00:29:56,394 --> 00:29:58,962
Though I made an enemy
of Lord Gamo,
322
00:29:58,962 --> 00:30:02,877
I am not so foolish as
to defy the regent!
323
00:30:03,234 --> 00:30:07,876
Waku Sozei sent me
news from Kyoto.
324
00:30:09,941 --> 00:30:14,478
First, it is rumored that
the "wife" you sent...
325
00:30:14,478 --> 00:30:16,278
is an imposter.
326
00:30:21,820 --> 00:30:23,654
Absurd!
327
00:30:23,654 --> 00:30:26,557
Of course, she is his wife.
328
00:30:26,557 --> 00:30:31,906
If she is not, all Date
will submit to execution.
329
00:30:32,330 --> 00:30:33,809
Another thing...
330
00:30:34,766 --> 00:30:39,766
At the castles of the rioters,
there were Date banners flying.
331
00:30:42,006 --> 00:30:44,308
That's what Lord Gamo said?
332
00:30:44,308 --> 00:30:46,276
In the confusion of battle,
333
00:30:46,276 --> 00:30:53,417
enemy flags often get
mixed with ours.
334
00:30:53,417 --> 00:30:56,987
That's what Lord Gamo
probably saw.
335
00:30:56,987 --> 00:30:58,661
Another thing...
336
00:30:59,023 --> 00:31:04,023
Why didn't you send a report
that the riots were quelled?
337
00:31:04,596 --> 00:31:08,669
I believed it was
Lord Gamo's responsibility.
338
00:31:11,369 --> 00:31:15,943
This is a difficult situation.
339
00:31:17,008 --> 00:31:21,684
I hope you don't doubt me,
Lord Asano?
340
00:31:22,313 --> 00:31:29,749
I cannot doubt
Lord Ujisato's report.
341
00:31:30,088 --> 00:31:31,897
I'm shocked.
342
00:31:33,424 --> 00:31:37,594
Since Odawara, we have
become good friends.
343
00:31:37,594 --> 00:31:41,168
I have bared my
soul to you.
344
00:31:41,866 --> 00:31:46,866
I believed that you,
of all people,
345
00:31:47,538 --> 00:31:50,815
would convince the
regent of my innocence!
346
00:31:51,242 --> 00:31:53,984
Don't overestimate me.
347
00:31:56,514 --> 00:31:59,984
Everyone in Kyoto
favors Ujisato.
348
00:32:00,652 --> 00:32:03,086
If I alone support you,
349
00:32:03,086 --> 00:32:06,830
I myself shall be suspected.
350
00:32:07,158 --> 00:32:10,162
Do you intend to let me die?
351
00:32:10,495 --> 00:32:12,566
Hear me.
352
00:32:13,364 --> 00:32:15,139
From what I can see,
353
00:32:15,934 --> 00:32:22,544
everything depends on the
validity of the letter.
354
00:32:26,711 --> 00:32:29,214
Is there hope?
355
00:32:29,881 --> 00:32:34,451
Please return our
vassal, Suda Hoki,
356
00:32:34,451 --> 00:32:37,452
who defected to Lord Gamo.
357
00:32:37,659 --> 00:32:45,437
If we interrogate him, he will
tell us why he told such a lie.
358
00:32:46,097 --> 00:32:48,265
Suda Hoki went to Kyoto.
359
00:32:48,265 --> 00:32:49,101
What?
360
00:32:49,502 --> 00:32:56,385
He went with Ujisato to appear
before the regent as a witness.
361
00:33:12,690 --> 00:33:17,366
This time, he would surely
be executed. He was doomed.
362
00:33:18,329 --> 00:33:22,141
Masamune rode on to Kyoto
with a heavy heart.
363
00:33:30,775 --> 00:33:34,811
As a boy, he had dreamed
of riding into Kyoto.
364
00:33:34,811 --> 00:33:38,760
He never dreamed
it would be to die.
365
00:33:48,493 --> 00:33:51,133
You said you'd rule Oshu?
366
00:33:52,163 --> 00:33:53,699
I did.
367
00:33:54,399 --> 00:33:57,710
- You want to rule Japan?
- Yes.
368
00:34:00,171 --> 00:34:02,879
It might not be
merely a dream.
369
00:34:03,641 --> 00:34:08,784
Unlike me, you have
a strange madness.
370
00:34:09,547 --> 00:34:16,431
A strange ferocity.
Like Oda Nobunaga.
371
00:34:19,857 --> 00:34:24,272
The light of Self;
the light of the Way.
372
00:34:26,364 --> 00:34:29,470
Depend on your own self.
373
00:34:30,401 --> 00:34:33,216
You are surrounded by
the strength of youth,
374
00:34:33,216 --> 00:34:37,216
in the like of Kojuro
and Shigezane.
375
00:34:37,642 --> 00:34:41,215
Your generation now
rules the Date.
376
00:34:43,448 --> 00:34:45,485
Bontenmaru.
377
00:34:48,886 --> 00:34:50,695
Tojiro.
378
00:34:55,626 --> 00:34:57,469
Masamune.
379
00:34:58,029 --> 00:34:59,406
Yes?
380
00:35:00,765 --> 00:35:06,008
Tonight, for some reason,
I'm terribly happy.
381
00:35:11,209 --> 00:35:15,749
I'll live a long life.
382
00:35:17,381 --> 00:35:20,385
I want to witness
your exploits.
383
00:35:23,721 --> 00:35:29,471
Remember, never fear
an enemy's strength.
384
00:35:32,497 --> 00:35:35,341
Never laugh at an
enemy's weakness.
385
00:35:37,602 --> 00:35:39,673
Yes, Father.
386
00:35:52,850 --> 00:35:55,091
Is this a monster?
387
00:35:56,554 --> 00:35:59,626
It is the god Fudo Myo-o.
388
00:36:00,558 --> 00:36:04,973
He will heal your eye.
389
00:36:05,930 --> 00:36:08,331
Let us pray.
390
00:36:08,331 --> 00:36:12,940
Why does a god
look so fearsome?
391
00:36:14,805 --> 00:36:15,645
Well...
392
00:36:19,510 --> 00:36:21,387
I'll tell you.
393
00:36:21,879 --> 00:36:24,723
His fierce countenance
punishes evil.
394
00:36:25,349 --> 00:36:28,118
Fudo Myo-o is a kind god.
395
00:36:28,118 --> 00:36:31,726
Despite his appearance,
he is filled with compassion.
396
00:36:41,832 --> 00:36:43,436
Kita.
397
00:36:44,335 --> 00:36:47,612
I wish to be like him.
398
00:37:03,988 --> 00:37:05,822
What flower is this?
399
00:37:05,822 --> 00:37:07,791
A bellflower.
400
00:37:07,791 --> 00:37:09,359
What color is it?
401
00:37:09,359 --> 00:37:10,199
Purple.
402
00:37:13,097 --> 00:37:15,304
Close your eyes.
403
00:37:24,442 --> 00:37:29,079
I'll ask again.
What color is it?
404
00:37:29,079 --> 00:37:31,314
Purple.
405
00:37:31,314 --> 00:37:32,953
How do you know?
406
00:37:35,686 --> 00:37:38,826
- Tokiminemaru?
- A bellflower is purple.
407
00:37:39,123 --> 00:37:41,626
I didn't ask that!
408
00:37:42,693 --> 00:37:45,105
Is this purple?
409
00:37:45,796 --> 00:37:50,074
How can you answer without
seeing it? Lazy boy!
410
00:37:51,602 --> 00:37:53,670
It's purple.
411
00:37:53,670 --> 00:37:55,105
What?!
412
00:37:55,105 --> 00:37:58,417
In my soul's eye,
it is purple.
413
00:38:00,778 --> 00:38:02,724
Over here, Father!
414
00:38:15,760 --> 00:38:17,364
Does it hurt?
415
00:38:18,763 --> 00:38:20,730
Then say it doesn't hurt.
416
00:38:20,730 --> 00:38:22,899
It doesn't hurt!
417
00:38:22,899 --> 00:38:25,001
Then say it hurts!
418
00:38:25,001 --> 00:38:26,948
It hurts!
419
00:38:28,773 --> 00:38:31,447
Do you hate me?
420
00:38:32,276 --> 00:38:33,026
No!
421
00:38:38,416 --> 00:38:40,191
Good.
422
00:38:40,751 --> 00:38:42,594
Laugh, when you want to cry.
423
00:38:42,987 --> 00:38:47,629
When it's hot, say it's cold.
424
00:38:48,893 --> 00:38:52,170
This is the secret
of perversity.
425
00:38:59,236 --> 00:39:06,618
At times, a general
must be cowardly.
426
00:39:10,648 --> 00:39:13,717
If the general is killed,
the battle is lost.
427
00:39:13,717 --> 00:39:18,690
The entire clan will be destroyed.
This is why you must not die.
428
00:39:20,358 --> 00:39:24,461
You must live on,
for the sake of your vassals.
429
00:39:24,461 --> 00:39:25,461
Yes.
430
00:39:27,131 --> 00:39:29,907
It is different for vassals.
431
00:39:30,601 --> 00:39:33,605
It's their duty
to die for their lord.
432
00:39:34,338 --> 00:39:38,980
Therein lies the
meaning of loyalty.
433
00:39:46,484 --> 00:39:49,328
That is the samurai.
434
00:39:50,755 --> 00:39:58,503
A warlord and his vassals
are bound together by death.
435
00:40:10,875 --> 00:40:12,125
Damn!
436
00:40:15,846 --> 00:40:18,715
Forgive me!
I was careless!
437
00:40:18,715 --> 00:40:22,289
It can't be helped!
We must wait!
438
00:40:24,755 --> 00:40:27,133
Why do you hesitate?
439
00:40:29,126 --> 00:40:33,939
Would you shame the Date
because of your father?!
440
00:40:36,700 --> 00:40:38,873
We mustn't be hasty!
442
00:40:47,511 --> 00:40:51,391
Masamune!
You're lord of the Date!
443
00:40:52,383 --> 00:40:56,331
We'll suffer eternal disgrace!
444
00:40:59,256 --> 00:41:00,929
Masamune!
445
00:41:01,759 --> 00:41:04,262
Do you want to rule Japan?!
446
00:41:21,011 --> 00:41:22,011
Gunners, make ready!
447
00:41:51,408 --> 00:41:53,009
Masamune!
448
00:41:53,009 --> 00:41:55,411
You're lord of the Date!
449
00:41:55,411 --> 00:41:59,315
We'll suffer eternal disgrace!
450
00:41:59,315 --> 00:42:04,129
Masamune!
Do you want to rule Japan?!
451
00:42:31,115 --> 00:42:33,493
Spring, 1591...
452
00:42:33,493 --> 00:42:36,758
Masamune crossed Mt. Hakone.
453
00:42:37,755 --> 00:42:42,864
Would he be able
to return home?
454
00:42:45,229 --> 00:42:50,372
Once more, Masamune would
have to cast himself...
455
00:42:50,372 --> 00:42:53,981
of the mercy of the
powerful Hideyoshi.
