Original subtitles

Towards the end of the Pacific War, 92 cities on the Japanese islands

were bombed by the American army, resulting in 1.5 million casualties.

Among them, Tokyo was subjected to 130 random air raids, burning

down 80% of its urban areas. Besides killing 100,000 people and injuring

120,000 people, 300,000 people lost their homes, leaving them in

the burnt ruins in the aftermath of the war.

What are you doing?

This is our territory.

This is all Japan, isn't it?

Don't take me lightly.

I'm Ginza Terry.

I'm Borneo Maya... Remember that.

Shut up!

What are you doing?

It's a roundup!

What's with you?

When they started he roundup, I didn't know which way to run.

We're the Angels of Shinbashi, part of the Kanto Family.

If you stick with us, you're in even more danger.

Hurry!

NIKUTAI NO MON Carmen 1945

They can't track you here, can they?

We're staking our lives on this.

If you don't like it, we'll find someone else.

80,000 yen...

With inflation, add 20 yen in dollars.

They're strict about black market dollars.

That's okay then.

We'll let it go this time.

Because of the roundup last night, I couldn't

do any business... So today I'm a virgin.

I'm a virgin, too.

You can have me for half price.

There's no cut for you, but here's train fare

and for food. Take it and disappear...

Won't you let me stay with you?

You can't.

It's not the way of making money that you're used to.

My husband was a lieutenant in the Navy, and died an

honorable death in battle.

His family home was burned down, so

I don't know how I'm going to survive...

Enough of your sob stories...

We've all suffered.

Why don't you look after her...?

The more we have, the better it is for us.

You know the saying "What comes around, goes around."

But depends on the person.

We work under extremely strict rules here.

Is that okay?

Yes! I'll follow your rules no matter what they are.

Is it okay with all of you?

It's okay.

Okay. That's it then.

Baby... Bring out the can.

We have three rules here.

One... All earnings are divided equally....

Two... Paradise will keep ten percent of your earnings.

Three... Don't make any sexual advances that won't bring in earnings.

Anyone who breaks any of our rules will get

beaten up by everyone, and tossed out.

But... What's "paradise"?

"Tengoku" (paradise)...

Tengoku?

This is 10 percent of all of our earnings...

This is how much we've kept...

We have three more like this.

We're going to use this someday, we're going

fix up this building, and make it our own paradise.

We're going to make an exciting dance hall.

That's right.

We're all going to wear matching white dresses, and we'll dance.

Well earn lots of money, and eat lots of good food.

And our bodies will be pure white.

Come up here.

In our business, we're only good for about three years.

Once you get old, and your body's worn out,

no one will pay for it.

So until then, we'll earn as much as we can,

and make our own paradise so we can survive...

I'm Sen Asada...

People call me Kanto Komasa.

Borneo Maya...

Kiss Crazy Michi...

I'm known as Vagabond Oroku.

I'm Jeep Omino.

This is Baby.

She can't talk, so look after her.

I'm Machiko Kikuma.

Please be good to me.

You're one of us now. Be nice to her.

Pray to our god.

What is this?

It's a one-ton bomb that was dropped from one of those bombers.

It's one of those that didn't blow up.

We've had it hanging there for two years

and it hasn't blown up.

This is our god that protects our abode.

This is our One-Ton Shrine. Remember that.

I brought this... I'll leave it here.

Thank you for always bringing me stuff.

That's about it.

It's quite old, so it's impossible to redo

the colors in just a couple days.

I heard there was a round-up last night.

It was nothing.

Are they rounding up "panpan" (prostitutes)?

Don't throw words like that around...

Do you even know what language it came from?

English, isn't it?

In Indonesian, it means a great woman.

You're quite educated, aren't you, Komasa?

Unlike you people, Sen's a girls' school graduate.

Want to read it?

Women age quickly, so they're like badly made counterfeit

money, they're out of circulation fast.

This kind of paper is of no use.

I'm going to add color to it so it's going to hurt a little.

I know. Just go for it.

In the past, it used to be peonies or a bunch

of maple leaves, but a rose is something different.

What color do you want?

I want it bright red.

During the air raid, the skies above Tokyo

turned bright red all at once, didn't it?

I want a rose that color.

I'm surprised a rose bloomed in this burnt ruins.

Where did you see it?

I forget. I just ran into the nearest bomb

shelter and when I woke up in the morning,

there was a single rose blooming.

If you saw it that clearly, you didn't see it all alone did you?

The man you loved was by your side, wasn't he?

Who knows? I forgot.

Which means you haven't forgotten.

I'm going to start.

- Thank you for your business. - Short?

Dressed like the ideal Japanese woman...

I hate women like that.

Girls like that attract the American soldiers.

Shall we change our dress, too?

Who cares how she dresses?

We're all doing the same thing.

Are you Borneo Maya?

That's right.

I was born in Tokyo...

My full name is Ginko Omori, named after the sparkling

waves that dance on the misty river...

People call me Chizakura Ogin.

I'm connected with the Baron no Osumi family in Rakucho...

Never mind acting so haughty...

What do you want?

I'm thanking for being nice to Terry...

If you have a complaint, tell me.

I'm Kanto Komasa...

Osumi wants to stick to ethics.

What is it?

Looking for a fight?

Stay out of this.

Leave it to me.

How do you want to settle this?

I'm willing settle for 50 dollars hard cash.

So you're Rakucho Osumi?

This is who I am...

You know how I settle things.

I like you.

Big Mama... Be nice to her.

No outside help...

You stay out of this...

With a lowly underling like her, let me handle it.

That's enough.

When you come to someone's house, you should say something first.

Got any complaints?

I'll throw gasoline, and set it on fire.

Are you the new girl?

It's true that we had a fight in Rakucho.

But we have our own code of ethics, so just leave us alone.

We can't do that, you idiot!

In the Rakucho family, there's a number of

the GHQ bigwigs' women hanging out, so if you

make the wrong move, we'll get the flak.

So what do you want us to do about it?

We want you all to become members of the Hakamada Gang.

If you do that, then we'll settle any disputes for you.

You pay a fee to the gang...

We'll take a percentage of your earnings...

You'll benefit...

Benefit? You seem to be worried, but it's this...

building you're after, isn't it?

Once they fix that bridge, and the flow of traffic

changes, this area will be prime real estate.

Komasa! The old man told you to be modest...

If you want this burned-down building,

we'll leave anytime...

But do you guys have the courage to move in here?

Wait a minute...

Maya... Introduce these guys to our god...

God?

I wouldn't mind meeting your Kannon goddess.

The god of prostitutes won't suit my needs.

My god is a sacred tree... You can pray to it if you like.

Want to lick it, Maya?

Don't talk so loud. The god here has a short temper.

Hey!

Where's your god?

Right here.

What the hell are you up to anyway?

You idiot!

Out of my way.

That was great.

We'll have to show our appreciation.

It's a red dog. It's delicious.

This has been going on for three days.

I'm getting soggy.

I give up with this rain.

You don't need a knife to kill an angel...

Just let it rain for three days...

How do you say that in English?

How's Omachi doing?

She seems to be making money.

She bought another autumn kimono.

Isn't she a bit shameless for a widow of a Navy lieutenant?

Who knows how much of what she said was true?

I heard someone saw Omachi shoplifting at the market.

I hope that's all she's done.

It's blood... He's dead?

What shall we do?

We'll take all his clothes off and throw him

in the river... That should settle things.

That's heartless.

Is he alive?

Maybe we should get a doctor...

He might be involved in something dangerous.

We'll just have to leave him like this.

It's a military notebook.

Shintaro Ibuki... He's an Army private first class.

18th Battalion Fukuoka 124th Coalition...

This battalion landed in Borneo, the same

place my older brother died in battle.

Then he's your brother's army comrade...

What shall we do, Maya?

If he's my brother's comrade, he's like family to me,

so please save him... In place of my brother.

She's right. Let's save him.

Please!

All right. Carry him inside.

Let's go.

Go and buy two or three bottles of shochu liquor.

We're going to sterilize his wound...

A so get some bandages and gauze, too.

I know where to get bandages.

I'll go and get it.

Hurry.

Maya... Check around the neighborhood...

Michi, cover the blood trail.

What happened?

Check outside.

Go with her, Baby.

Thanks. You saved me.

Don't worry... There are shootings around this area all the time.

- Where is this place? - It's our roost.

Roost?

This is what we are.

I see...

You found a nice hiding place.

That's right. We're fine as long as we have a place to sleep.

We took some of your money to buy the liquor and the bandages.

When your wound heals, we'll take enough to cover your rent.

Do you have any cigarettes?

What is it?

The way you re holding that...

This?

I got hit by a bullet in Borneo and it hit a

nerve in my finger...

What's wrong?

I don't want to waste the candle.

It's unusual for you to be drinking in broad daylight.

I have things I want to forget, too.

I'll bet...

About once every three nights, I can't sleep.

I see the faces of my wife and kid burnt to a crisp.

There's no way we'll forget...

We can make as many good memories as

we want from now on.

Once the world settles down...

Will you keep remembering the past and cry all the

time, or forget everything, and think about tomorrow

while you live life laughing.

You have to decide which it will be.

That's true...

I'll have to decide, won't I?

Excuse me.

How much for a Lucky Strike?

160 yen.

Is that the vagabond who wandered into your place?

HAKAMADA GANG MARKET

Have you heard any rumors about a man called Colt Shin?

There was a shooting around the area you earn your money...

Four or five days ago, on that rainy day.

I don't know... I was busy all day that day.

If you hear anything from your pals, tell me.

Who is that person?

He was a former buddy of mine.

Let's just leave it as a dark secret.

I'll treat you to a drink someday.

How are you feeling?

You seem to be much better.

Isn't it about time you want some?

Won't I do?

What about this?

It's yours, isn't it?

They call you Colt Shin-chan.

I heard you and the head of the Hakamada Gang

used to run roughshod ground this area.

One of the old-timers at the market told me about you.

Do you want something?

I thought you could listen to my complaints.

The women here don't have the backing of

a yakuza gang, so I joined them thinking I could

earn more money, but they're talking about

making paradise here, and take a percentage...

Paradise?

They're going to fix this place up, and turn it into a dance hall.

There's no way they can do it.

Why don't you settle your beef with the Hakamada Gang?

I know a little bit about that.

The market seems to doing better and better.

It doesn't sit well with you, does it?

I'm willing to devote myself to you, body and soul.

I'm the only one who can keep your secret.

When I came back to fix my makeup,

he asked me to come up and have a smoke.

I'll see you later.

Goodbye.

This isn't a place for a man like you to stay for long.

Are you telling me to leave?

That's right.

You managed to come home alive from the war, didn't you?

Treasure your life.

I know that.

Come over here.

Look at that.

That's some hole...

Was it hit by a bomb?

So it seems.

It's a one-ton bomb.

I guess that would do it.

Are you warning me not fall down this hole?

If a bomb like that fell here, this whole...

building would have blown to pieces.

That's why I told you to treasure your life.

There's no mistake... It's a one-ton bomb.

It'll take a lot to set this fuse off, but

if by some chance, this thing falls down...

Are you all crazy?

You sure don't have much guts for a man.

What are you doing?

If it goes off, we can go straight to meet our dead families...

That's how we feel, so we've settled in here.

I'm saying anyone who doesn't feel that way can just leave.

What are you going to do from now?

As long as we have our protector god here,

this building is ours.

We'll have it protect us until our dreams are no longer dreams.

Listen to what I have to say.

There must be a better way of living than picking men up on the streets.

I'll make it that way.

So just stick with me.

Why?

Because...

From the first time I saw you here, I liked you...

Is there something wrong with that?

Damn!

Let me in...

200 yen.

I win.

500 yen...

That makes 1000 yen... Sorry about that.

Did you pray to the protector of that building?

No...

You have guts if you know about it, and you're still there.

If I tell the Occupation Forces about it, they'll take it away.

I wonder about that.

There's probably a lot of paperwork involved for something like that.

Besides, I doubt they have the time to deal with it.

It's safe because that thing is there.

Otherwise, that building would have been taken over by

the Hakamada Gang a long time ago.

The Hakamada Gang?

That bulletin belongs to Komasa and her girls...

The Hakamada Gang has no claim on it.

Those girls are serious about turning that building into paradise...

Hakamada's determination is nothing compared to theirs.

Is Komasa's tattoo your work?

I've never done a rose before, so I was going

to turn her down, but she has a moving

reason for wanting it.

Her home was burnt down during that air raid on

Tokyo on March 10th.

She was he only one who survived because she was

working at a factory in Kawasaki.

She was fired from the factory after the war ended.

She wandered aimlessly through the burnt ruins for days on an empty stomach.

That soldier who had returned from the front was her first.

She never asked that man's name or where

he was from, but she said he held his cigarette in a strange way.

- Didn't you see Mr. Ibuki? - No...

He hasn't come back for the past few days.

Didn't he run off with Omachi?

Run off together?

Omachi hasn't come back either.

I saw Omachi at the gambling den the other day...

Damn!

It was Omachi!

She was a thief, after all.

Pretending to be a widow of a Navy lieutenant.

Damn her!

What are we going to do?

We all lay our lives on the line to save that money!

We'll teach her a lesson. We'll find her,

She's still around here.

Let's go!

What do you want?

How dare you just walk into our home!

I thought I'd leave you with a package...

Omachi!

She was picking up customers in our territory, so we'll give her back to you.

Omachi...

Did you do this?

I borrowed it thinking I could increase it,

but I lost it all.

Don't give us that crap!

Stop it!

Komasa... I'll let you decide what you'll do with her...

How do you intend to make it up to us?

How do you want me to make it up to you?

You're Kanto Komasa, aren't you?

I'm Rakucho Osumi...

There's only one way.

You guys tie her up, and don't make a move.

We'll settle this with bareshi...

Only one weapon.

Hey! Isn't it a bit strange?

They didn't even give me a drop of water to drink the whole night.

They treated me like a criminal.

They told me to come back again tomorrow.

You have a visitor in the back.

You fool! I'm in no mood to talk to a visitor.

Send him away.

It's Colt Shin.

Nothing good happened after I got out of jail...

I didn't want to cause trouble for you, so

I stayed away for a while.

You should have just come here.

But as you can see... We're closed down.

I'm in no mood for anything frivolous.

Don't think badly of me.

I understand.

We both risked our lives so we could divide

this territory between us to begin with...

So the market's dear to me, too.

Isn't it?

That's right... We did talk about that once.

So want you to listen to what I have to say.

I did your share of time in jail...

So now I have a record.

I have no intention of becoming a boss.

If it's for your sake, I'm willing to take the

blame for this GI murder...

I didn't do it.

Nut... As long as the real culprit doesn't

step forward, you can't open the market.

In exchange, once the ruckus over the GI

murder dies down, will you let me have that...

burnt-out building by the river?

That's all I want.

Wait a minute...

That building is...

If you won't agree, I'll have to find the real culprit and turn him over...

Give me a light...

At a time like this, you should just hand

over the money without a word.

Do whatever you want!

You were the wife of an Army lieutenant,

weren't you? Shouldn't you be a bit more elegant?

Shut up. I've been selling my body since I was 15.

I have more experience than you prostitutes

who just started in he business.

You have guts...

Maya... you start it off.

Let's forgive her just this once.

I'm the one who first asked that we take her in...

You're the one who first talked about making this into paradise.

And she ruined it.

Stop it.

You have a razor?

I'll shave you bald on the top and bottom.

That's enough!

Don't interfere...

This is the Kanto family's way of punishment.

Outsiders should stay out of it.

You enjoy talking like a yakuza?

What you're doing is the same as the Japanese army

who ran and hid in the mountains when we were losing the war.

You're just tormenting one of your own,

and exposing your weakness.

I've seen enough of that.

Are you saying you've never once tormented a woman?

Never mind him... Beat her up.

Maya... Oroku... Omino...

Michi...

What's wrong with all of you?

What's wrong?

Is there something wrong with all of you?

That's right... We're all screwed.

And who was it that screwed us all?

Who was it that started the war?

And who lost the war?

It was all of you men! You're to blame!

None of us wants to be a prostitute!

Isn't that right, all of you?

The only time we can go back to being proper

women is when this place is turned into paradise.

What do you know anyway?

It has nothing to do with you.

Get out!

Let me go!

I lost tonight...

Same here.

You overlooked the fact that I was in a pinch during that challenge.

You've got more guts. A lot more than me.

It's resentment.

It pisses me off to see those bastards get carried away.

Did your house burn down, too?

Our neighborhood managed to escape the fire.

You were lucky, weren't you?

Luck?

During the war, I was making an honest living.

I was working at a post office in Marunouchi.

My father was a prisoner in Siberia, so my mom

and little sister ran the family barber shop.

One day, the Occupation Forces came...

It wasn't that long after the war ended.

Sergeant Robert... I'll never forget that bastard's face.

So I specialized in selling my body to sergeants.

I found the bastard.

All I needed was to set it up.

What do you mean?

I've kept this for when I put a bullet in his chest.

So I have a favor to as you.

When the time comes, I want you to take over the family...

I've convinced them all to accept you.

I'm going to...

Osumi...

What are you saying?

MacArthur's a god.

He says the black market is a necessary evil for Japan

after losing the war.

In other words, it's necessary.

With those words, the market was reopened.

And the dice keep rolling in my favor.

A PX supervisor I know, said if we clean up

the burnt-out building, they're talking about

making it an exclusive club for the American soldiers.

What about the murder of that GI?

I sent Sabu away to a place where they won't find him,

so that's no problem.

The problem's Ibuki.

Rather than that, shouldn't you get those prostitutes

out of the building first?

You don't need Ibuki anymore.

That's it.

They call themselves the Kanto Family,

but inside they're all going their own way.

When they were lynching me, I saw that with my own eyes.

Here's 50,000 per head to evict that building.

Do you think we'd take this trifling amount of money?

We're talking to the legal owner of that building.

It doesn't belong to you guys.

Just do as you please...

It's not a bad idea to pound our protector

god until it blows that building to bits.

We could just dump all of your bodies to the

bottom of the Tokyo Bay.

We'll wait three days. After that...

You can wait 10 years, but it'll be a waste of time.

Where's Ibuki now?

I see... Is that how the wind blows?

Hey!

If you change your mind, you can talk to me.

Oroku... Go and get the bootleg whisky.

I don't want to stay here.

Let's get out of here. I'm scared.

Let's get out of this place.

We should move...

It looks like Hakamada's serious this time.

Where will we find a place for us to live?

Let's use the money we're keeping, and

the eviction money to go to America.

We'll each find ourselves a GI, and become war brides.

There's paradise all over America.

Mino... Do you think you can go to the country

of the people who killed your mom and make paradise there?

What's wrong, Maya?

Baby was caught during the raid, and she's being set up.

Baby...? It's my fault..

I just took my eyes off her for a second.

Sen... Let us use the money for paradise...

What are you going to do?

I'll get a lawyer, and help Baby.

Otherwise, when they send her to jail,

they'll all pick on her.

Please! For Baby's sake.

Maya!

I understand how you feel, but do you think...

there's a lawyer out there who'd be willing to help some prostitutes?

Are you going to sit back and watch Baby get killed?

We're fighting a war so we can build paradise.

You know that better than anyone, don't you?

Isn't that right?

We have no choice but to leave those who are shot down behind.

If that's the kind of paradise we're making, I don't need it.

Mr. Ibuki!

Shin!

To thank you for the other time, I thought

I'd treat you all to some thick steaks.

You went to the trouble of buying a whole cow?

I took it from some guy who came to deliver vegetables to the market.

Then you're a thief.

I guess am.

How do you make that into steak?

I'm going to cut him up here.

Find a nice, sharp knife.

And bring lots of water.

We're going to wash the blood away later.

Go and check out the market...

There should be a big commotion there now.

See which way the wind is blowing.

Hey, wait!

Find a charcoal stove, and something to start a fire.

All right.

We're going to cut it up here.

Private First Class Ibuki... Have you ever been to Borneo?

I was in the first unit that landed in Borneo.

My big brother died in battle in Borneo.

Do you know him?

No, I don't. It was probably when the American troops landed in Borneo.

I heard the whole garrison was destroyed.

My older brother was a good man.

Shin doesn't only belong to you, Maya.

Please... Cut up the Hakamada Gang the way you cut up the cow.

He sold this building to the American soldiers.

Omachi's Hakamada's mistress now, and

she does everything he asks her to.

Stop it! That has nothing to do with Shin.

Why not?

I'm getting out of here...

Who cares about paradise? This is a living hell...

Shin... You'd better leave here soon...

Michi...

Are you going to betray us?

Aren't you all shaking in your boots?

Don't put on an act in front of Shin.

Don't make me laugh...

Acting like you're a good person.

Besides, what you say is always different from what you mean.

You idiot!

Is there a law that says you have to dress a

certain way to do business?

Besides, is being a prostitute such a great business?

Stop it! Stop it!

Go ahead. Beat her to a pulp.

Do you enjoy causing trouble among friends that much?

Why not? If they want to fight, let them.

Bringing everything out in the open with no one

hiding anything is the good thing about the Kanto Family.

Are you being honest?

What's with you?

- If you have a complaint, tell me. - All right. I'll tell you.

You're in love with Shin.

But you're hiding it in front of everyone.

The reason you wanted Omachi beaten up is

because you were jealous.

You're willing to let Baby die because you don't want to pay the money.

Pretending to be a yakuza, and whitewashing all the time...

Do you even know what's in people's hearts?

You're frigid.

Go ahead, Maya.

I hate this... Everyone's going their own way.

I have an announcement...

Early morning on December 8th, Japan has entered into a state

of war with the American army.

Attack!

Attack! Attack!

Big Brother...

Big Brother...

I'm lonely...

Big Brother.

As long as you pay money, anyone is a customer.

Don't hold back, and attack.

What's wrong?

Is it strange to see me here?

It is.

The murder of the GI still hasn't been resolved.

I know.

I don't plan to stay long.

Once things settle down, you're going to keep

your promise and let me take charge of the building, aren't you?

I wish you'd stop calling me "brother."

While I was running around the mountains in the

Philippines, I managed to survive by eating

the meat off my war comrades.

In this world, those who survive are the winners.

It's only natural that those who make the wrong

move will get eaten up by maggots and die.

In order to survive, I'll eat the meat...

off your body too.

There are orders from the Occupation Forces

to shoot and kill you when you're found.

I see... So that's how the wind blows.

I guess I'll have to come back.

You're good at changing horses, aren't you?

I hope you die.

Maya?

Oroku?

Omino? Michi?

Sen...?

Tome?

Where did everyone go?

I heard you had an argument last night.

Oroku and the others came by earlier, and left a message.

Oroku, Omino and Michi are getting out of this business.

So they took their own shares.

What about Maya?

Don't get angry.

This is for the best... This is what happens eventually

when you band together.

Paradise is something that you want, and not the paradise everyone wants.

Can say it?

Ibuki was your first...

Osumi...?

Osumi.

Osumi!

I'm sorry. I had nowhere else to go.

What about Robert? Did you get him?

I missed my chance.

I got him to the hotel...

When he got away...

Everything went black.

I'm just a coward.

I'm sorry. I'm sorry.

I didn't have anywhere else to go. I'm sorry.

Osumi!

Don't give in.

You're Rakucho Osumi, aren't you?

Just start over again.

Start over again as many times as you have to.

Sen...

You're surrounded.

Did you shoot him?

Come out of that building.

Everyone in that building. Come out.

Is Sumiko Kitazawa in there?

Run away, Osumi.

You'll have another chance.

Just leave it to me. There's an escape route.

Komasa...

I can't run away. This is my last chance.

But I don't have a weapon.

I didn't think it would come in handy in a place like this.

Don't be surprised that I have this.

I heard about you from Sen.

Listen... Aim for his heart, and use your whole body to shove it in.

- Got that? - Tome!

It's okay. Let her do what she wants.

You mustn't run away.

Otherwise, you'll end up living your life like me.

You'll be as good as dead with nothing to look forward to.

Wait a minute.

Osumi!

Komasa!

Be sure you make your paradise.

Osumi!

"I am Francois... Unfortunately, to my chagrin, I was born on

the banks of Pointoise in Paris, hanging by a 12 by 1-inch

rope, my neck felt the weight of initiation."

What is that?

A poem of a juvenile delinquent when he died...

A 15th century French poet wrote it.

I brought you this.

Can we talk alone for a bit?

It's nothing important.

I've changed my mind.

If you change your way of thinking, I'm big enough to take you in.

Have a drink.

Bastard!

"I am Francois..."

Sen...

Ibuki killed Hakamada.

Hakamada?

If you stay here, you'll get caught in the fallout.

Leave the rest to me.

Hide somewhere for a while.

And what happened to him?

I don't know.

If he's okay, he'll come here.

If he does, I'll guide him. Hurry and go.

Maya!

I'm sorry, Sen...

You idiot! Where did you wander off to?

I know she was in it with Ibuki.

Ibuki will come here.

So what if he does?

We don't have time to fool around...

The gang's reputation is on the line.

If you put up a fight, we'll hold your funeral...

Are you going to shoot me?

Don't, Sen! Leave this to me.

Ibuki's my man... He's sure to come back to me.

But it's not here... It's someplace else.

I'll tell just you.

Before that, I want to talk to you alone.

Then I'll tell you where it is.

I promise!

Don't take your eyes off them.

I want to continue a relationship with you from now on.

Maya... You're the only one I feel obligated to.

When they lynched me, you were the only

one who didn't lay a finger on me.

Maya... You know the rules of the yakuza, don't you?

The successor has to pay the debt of his predecessor.

I have good judgment.

I like Ibuki, too. But I'm asking you...

If I don't kill him, I'll never find glory in my life again.

Maya... I have my own dream of paradise, too.

I've clung to that dream for the past 20 years

or so, and put up with being a man's toy...

I've suffered more than you or Komasa.

Please understand.

If you tell me where Ibuki is, this market...

and the Hakamada gang will be mine.

Please! Please tell me where he is.

Let me find glory.

Machiko...

Ibuki doesn't belong to me.

Nor does he belong to you.

He has someone he loves even more.

Who?

Who is it?

What are you doing?

If it blows, we'll go together.

If you don't have the guts, leave.

You don't know when to shut up, do you, bitch?

It's cold.

Where are you going?

My drug wore off.

I was going to get another fix.

Is it pure?

Want some?

I leave the rest to you.

It's cold. Start a fire.

It's taking long... Is it pure stuff?

I don't know.

It might be cold medicine.

That Komasa...!

What did she do?

Wait a minute... I'll be right back.

Look at me.

Aren't I beautiful?

I was going to wear this when we built our paradise.

Look at me...

It can be a wedding dress.
