Original subtitles

During a war, a handful of warriors nearly obliterated the Imperial Army.

They were called the Ninku Unit.

The empire was barely able to defeat them,

so they set out to subdue the unit in fear of their powers.

Few even know about the real Ninku anymore.

After witnessing the Tenkuu Dragon, but failing to draw power from it,

Fuusuke and his crew decided to journey back to meet Elder Umechiyo once more.

However, Colonel Mekira

had already given the Imperial Army orders to occupy villages around the Feng Shui Valley

in order to ambush Fuusuke and his friends.

You okay, Fuusuke?

I can't go on. I'm way too hungry.

Now that you mention it, we haven't eaten anything since yesterday morning.

Rihoko, I bet you're starving too.

I'm totally fine.

I'm on a diet. So...

Jeez, you guys need to get it together.

Let me eat...

Huh?

Huh?

Wow! Is that a huge mansion?

What? No way!

Whoever owns that must be one rich SOB.

Let's beg them for food.

Wow, it's huge!

This is more like a castle than a mansion.

Excuse us!

Maybe no one's home.

I think it's just so big that nobody heard us.

Let's have a look around.

Anybody home?

I smell food inside.

All right!

Whoa... It's a mountain of food!

They have this much, so surely they'll let us have a bit.

Hey! Over here!

What is it?

This room's amazing!

How so?

Excuse me!

Wow.

Wh-What is this place?

Is it a museum or something?

What are you punks doing in my house?!

Huh?

Eh?

Wha?

Who on earth are you?

Oh, sorry for intruding, old man.

We're travelers, and we were wondering if you could give us some food.

That again?

Huh?

Everyone who comes here spews that one.

"An old man living on his own surely doesn't need all this treasure or food."

"You should share it," is what they all say.

We aren't...

I'll say it now: I won't give you even a single grain of rice!

I'll massage your shoulders if you give us food.

And if you're ever in a bind, I'll come and help you.

People who spew that drivel are usually the biggest cowards.

You can't fool me!

Now, now, Gramps. Surely you can see that we're not bad people.

All we want is a bit of food.

Please.

Don't ever come back!

What an old bastard!

He didn't have to actually shoot!

I wouldn't mind him shooting if he were willing to share some food with us.

The baron chased you guys out, didn't he?

Don't waste your time asking him. He won't share anything with you.

Look, sweet corn!

You guys must be really hungry.

Drop by our house, and we'll let you have some of this sweet corn.

Thank you very much!

Most of the village belongs to the baron.

But there are lots of people who leave because they can't pay the rent.

So he takes money from the poor while he lives a life of luxury.

What a real scrooge.

Back in the day, he was a nice old man who didn't even charge rent.

In the war three years ago, the Imperial Army attacked this village.

We all ran for our lives, but the baron's daughter and her baby didn't make it.

The baron asked us for help,

but we were all running for our lives too.

We were in no shape to help.

Please help my daughter!

His daughter burned to death along with her newborn child.

After that, the baron completely changed.

Now he sits in his little castle, armed to the teeth, along with an underground air-raid shelter,

spending his time staring at his pictures.

Come to think of it, the paintings in his house were all paintings of a mother and her child.

Seems like he can't let go of his lost daughter and grandchild.

Oh?

You're really good at drawing, Wataru!

Hey, Daddy!

I'm back, Wataru. Were you a good boy?

Yeah!

Thanks for always looking out for him.

Oh, no problem.

Who are those people?

Oh, they're just like you.

They wanted the baron to share some food with them, but he just kicked them out.

Hello there.

I'm a traveler too, but the people here are all very kind.

Well then, Wataru, let's play again tomorrow.

Yeah! Bye!

Thanks again.

Come on in then.

Thank you so much!

We're coming in!

I'll send the squadron over immediately.

303, you will proceed with the second stage of the plan once the squadron arrives.

Roger that.

They'll be done soon.

Wow!

Oh, that's Hiroyuki!

So this penguin is named Hiroyuki?

You're really good.

Thanks!

What's your name?

Me? I'm Fuusuke.

She's Rihoko.

Hi!

Those two are Touji and Aichou.

Nice to meet you, Wataru-kun.

Do you like drawing, Wataru-kun?

Yeah!

My son draws pictures all day, every day.

We're no artists ourselves, so I wonder who he picked it up from.

Don't be hard on him, dear. Let him draw his pictures!

What was that?!

Bad news! The Imperial Army have started attacking!

What?!

Wh-Why would they come back now?

I have no clue, but we need to get out of here!

Damn those Imperial bastards!

Don't worry, Wataru.

What?

We'll protect you.

Rihoko, take them somewhere safe!

Got it.

Wh-What are you guys trying to do?

Don't worry. Let's just get out of here.

Fuusuke!

Air Snake Tear!

All right, let's go!

Yeah!

Sky Soaring Fist!

Air Shuriken!

Amazing!

Correct me if I'm wrong, but are you guys Ninku?

U-Uh, about that.

There's no need to hide it.

During the war, the Ninku protected this village from the Imperial Army.

Nobody here thinks you're the bad guys.

Thanks for the kind words,

but unless you get out of here soon, the Imperial Army will attack you again.

But they have nowhere to go.

How about the baron's house?

What?

That place has an air-raid shelter,

and worst case, there should be plenty of firepower to drive 'em back.

Okay, let's all ask him.

That's a good plan.

Huh?

Hey, you two!

Huh?

What's that stuck on your butts?

Huh?

What on earth is this?

A dart.

What a petty thing to do.

I had one in my butt too.

Baron, you saw it, right? The Imperial Army's attacking the village!

The Ninku saved us once again.

It's going to be all right, Wataru. No need to fret.

The Imperial Army are hunting down the Ninku!

So f course we're going to be attacked if you let them into the village!

Even so, the Ninku protected us during the war!

The war is done and gone!

All of you, get out of here. The Ninku too!

The Imperial Army...

This is for the Ninku inside the mansion!

You are completely surrounded!

Surrender to us within the next hour!

If you resist, we will bombard the mansion without mercy!

If you refuse to surrender, we will attack immediately!

So they're after us again.

What are we going to do?

We have no choice. Let's take 'em out!

Don't be ridiculous.

Are you going to let them attack this mansion?

Surrender peacefully.

Are you saying we should hand over these people to the Imperial Army?

Everything in this house is my treasure!

I won't let it be destroyed!

But...

It's fine.

There's no sense in burdening the old man with our problems.

Don't worry about us. We're pretty strong.

Even if they capture us, we'll just escape.

But, old man, I have a favor to ask.

Let us have some food. We haven't eaten anything since yesterday.

Do what you want.

Thanks, old man!

Then I'll make you an awesome meal!

Really? I'm so hyped!

H-Huh? Wha...

Fuusuke! What's wrong?

I can't move my body.

What just happened to you?!

A-Aichou-san?

Wh-What the hell? My body...

Aichou, you too?!

What's up with you three?!

W-We've been poisoned!

Huh?!

P-Poisoned?

When did this happen?

Oh!

Don't tell me...

The darts!

Fuusuke!

Are you guys all right?!

This is bad.

What should we do?

Rihoko...

Wh-What is it, Onii-chan?

For now, let's eat! Please bring us some food!

Idiot! Do you understand the situation?

I'm serious. All we can do is increase the circulation in our bodies.

If I eat something, I should be able to handle this.

Even the Ninku didn't see these little darts.

So they'll be on the floor within the hour.

Good job.

Yes, sir.

Platoon leader!

Yes, sir!

Commence the operation!

Yes, sir!

Wow, you guys sure eat a lot!

You guys really need to mind your manners when you eat!

What did you say? The Ninku can't move?

Yes.

At this rate, they're really going to be killed.

Isn't there anything you can do to help them?

Baron, please.

The Ninku saved us three years ago.

It's the same thing again.

My daughter and grandchild didn't make it.

I couldn't care less about the Ninku!

Leave me be!

Get out!

What are you doing there, boy?

My name's Wataru, not "boy."

Wataru, do you like pictures?

Yeah! I do.

Is that so?

You see how there's a lot of pictures of children here?

Yeah!

I used to have a grandchild.

They would have been the same age as you.

Then let me meet 'em! I want to make lots of friends.

I can't?

No. You can't meet them.

Gramps!

Hm?

Look.

What's this?

I drew it earlier. It's you, Gramps.

You drew me?

Yeah! I'll give you this drawing.

You're giving it... to me?

You don't want it?

I-It's for me?

Hey, bro!

Thanks, old man.

I can move a little better after eating some food.

See you later, Wataru.

Bro!

Old man, as promised, we'll be going soon.

Bro!

Bro!

Wataru...

Apart from the women, we'll come with you.

Thanks, guys! But it's all right.

Gramps!

Gramps!

Gramps!

Wataru, look after the old man.

See you.

Wait!

Wait a minute!

Baron!

Please don't go.

Wataru drew this picture for me!

Old man...

Villagers!

Bring up all the explosives from the basement and plant them around the mansion!

There's enough to give the Imperial Army what for!

The women and children should take the Ninku and hide in the air-raid shelter!

Gramps!

B-But if we do that, then the mansion...

I don't mind anymore. I've gained something far more important than that.

We have no time. Hurry up and do it!

Okay, let's do this, guys!

Yeah!

Time's up. Attack!

The Ninku cannot use their moves now.

Shoot and kill them on sight!

They're here! Do it now, Baron!

I feel bad for the old man.

It won't ever be enough, but we plan to take care of him as best we can.

Wataru likes him too, so it'll be great to have him with us.

Is that true, Wataru?

Yeah.

Hey! Old man!

Yes?

Wataru is saying that he wants to live with you.

Gramps!

Gramps!

Wataru!

Gramps! We're going to be together forever now!

I'm so, so glad.

Thank you, Wataru.

Thank you.

Whoa!

You're amazing, Sekirai!

You can walk while you're sleeping now?

You should teach me how sometime!

But however hungry you might be in the middle of the night,

isn't it bad to burn down an entire field just to get some grilled corn?

Next episode: Wake Up, Sekirai!

Huh? You kinda look like the bad guy here.
