A duel is going to take place. Leave at once. It's dangerous.

You're Musashi Miyamoto, aren't you?

How do you know?

You're going to duel with Old Baiken.

I must watch it.

Leave at once.

I live here. You leave yourself.

Very well. Then stay where you are now.

Here he comes!

- Musashi? - Baiken.

- Ready? - You'll lose!

Here I come!

You mean my swordsmanship is poor?

Definitely.

You're not even close to perfection. - But I defeated Baiken.

You may have defeated him with your sword,

but you lost the spirit of the sword.

But I won by my swordsmanship.

I'm not even scratched.

I'll show you.

You seem to trust your skill very much.

In that case, let me ask you a question.

Why did you jump when you saw that demon mask?

What is your answer?

You're terribly strong.

But your mind is not at peace.

That means you may win a duel,

but you are not yet a true samurai.

You'll always remain just a strong man.

Your Grace, who are you?

Teach me further.

I can only tell you this.

You are too strong.

Understand, Musashi?

Swordsmanship means right-mindedness.

Remember, a man cannot remain physically strong forever.

You're too strong. Decidedly too strong.

Give it up. You can't be my disciple.

Why not?

I'm still learning myself. I won't take a student.

No, I'll study alongside you.

It may last long. Maybe a lifetime.

- Hey, kid. - Call me Jotaro.

- And your parents? - They died in the Battle of Sekigahara.

KYOTO CITY

Fans. Buy fans.

Fans for sale.

- You want something? - Excuse me.

You're looking for someone.

I was watching you.

I admire you.

Waiting for somebody as you earn your bread.

Yes.

Is it a man? Your lover?

Pardon my curiosity.

I feel as if it were my business.

There's a man I wish to see.

A man I'm dying to see!

Isn't it funny?

Of course not.

Are you certain this man will come?

Somebody told me he might.

Just a rumor?

But my only hope in life is to wait for him.

I see.

I do hope you find him.

After hearing your story,

I feel that I've regained hope.

I gave up a long time ago.

I might see him someday.

I pray for you.

Thank you.

And I pray for you.

Here you are, Akemi.

The young master is waiting. Come along!

Young girls are just like reeds in the wind.

It's up to men.

Where've you been? The Young Master is waiting.

Later!

Go.

Akemi, where have you been?

Come, pour me a drink.

He's so naive. Too green.

A gilded youth. That's him.

Not as worldly as you and I.

- What about the money? - I know.

Until they get involved, we have no right to ask for it.

You're a bad disciple.

You're a pretty bad mother yourself.

Come on.

He's back again, eh?

Why don't you kick him out?

Or do you still care for him?

Even in blossom

For some reason

This flower

Feels lonely

Do you dislike me?

You say nothing.

That means you dislike me.

But I -

No joking, please.

If I were joking, I wouldn't be suffering like this.

YOSHIOKA SCHOOL

Two have died.

I see.

We shouldn't have taken him lightly.

- Found the Young Master? - We're still trying.

I'll go look, too.

Don't send him away alive! It's our disgrace!

One moment.

It's useless to continue like this.

I request a match with Master Seijuro Yoshioka himself.

Wait!

The Master! The Young Master came home!

What is the meaning of this?

Students of the Yoshioka School defeated by a nameless swordsman!

It's your fault!

Taking the Master to see a woman. - What?

In Master Kenpo's time, no such shame befell us.

Silence! You defame the Young Master.

What insolence! - Shut up.

- Tell me where he is. - Yes, sir.

He's waiting for your return in that room.

Bring him.

Wait. One minute.

He isn't good enough for the Young Master.

- Please leave him to us! - That's too cowardly. No!

Please wait.

- He mustn't leave alive! - Will I lose?

Defeating him will bring you no honor.

Miyamoto, sorry to keep you waiting.

May I see you a moment?

He's gone!

Find him.

- Don't let him get away! - I found a letter.

It is a great misfortune that Master Yoshioka is absent today.

I shall always be ready to display my swordsmanship,

anytime, anyplace.

I shall avail myself of your designation.

Kindly post your reply at Sanjo Bridge by 6:00 tomorrow.

If not, I shall take the liberty of announcing

that I have defeated the Yoshioka School. Yours truly -

What's troubling you, Young Master?

Let's drink, Master.

Still annoyed by that? It's foolish.

Snap out of it.

See how the kimono you bought for Akemi becomes her.

Master, don't bother yourself with Musashi.

We'll handle him.

Why mustn't I accept this challenge?

Am I so weak? - Nonsense!

He isn't good enough for you to bother with in person.

Let somebody else do it.

Your brother Denshichiro, for instance.

Come, Akemi.

Do something. Play something.

And please forget about Musashi, Master.

- "Takezo Miyamoto." - What? Takezo?

Idiot! It's pronounced "Musashi."

Is he from Mimasaku Province?

Yes, he's a ronin from there.

Wasn't Takezo from Miyamoto village in Mimasaku Province?

He was.

Musashi Miyamoto. It must be Takezo.

You know him?

Yes. That's the man I wanted to see.

I must tell Matahachi.

- Oko, bring her back. - Akemi!

Master, all's fair in love and war.

Be quick, or Musashi will beat you to the prize.

- What? Takezo is still alive? - Musashi the swordsman.

Akemi, what's the matter with you? Hurry to the Master.

- Stop using her to make money. - Shut up.

Stop your nonsense!

Weakling! Look at yourself!

Takezo's a great samurai. And what have you made of yourself?

I POLISH THE SOULS OF SAMURAI

A product of the Hizen School.

An excellent sword, sir.

The edge is nicked.

By a chain and sickle, sir?

Right.

In a duel in Iga Province.

The chain and sickle master in Iga was Baiken.

So it was you, then?

It's a shame to lose him. But I was challenged to a duel.

How would you like to have this polished, sir?

How?

Sharp enough to cut.

I decline.

Read that sign out there.

I polish the souls of samurai.

I do not sharpen murderous weapons.

What? You call my sword a murderous weapon?

I do.

I refuse to bother with killers disguised as samurai.

May I ask you again?

Will you kindly polish anew my crude soul?

You are great!

I admire your spirit, sir.

I'm ashamed of what I said. I can't do it.

Why not?

It's too good for me.

Only one master can do this job.

He will polish it up perfectly. - Who is he?

My teacher. Master Koetsu Honami.

He's the most peculiar of my pupils.

Did he say that?

- I've known your name for years. - A false reputation.

I've just finished polishing this long sword. I'll do it.

What a splendid sword.

Its owner calls it "Drying Pole."

A really good sword.

I suppose the owner is a great samurai.

He must be.

He looks like an actor rather than a swordsman.

But he'll become a renowned man, eventually.

I'd like to meet him.

Who is he?

His name is Kojiro Sasaki.

Ever heard of him? - No.

He'll come here today. Will you come meet him?

- I'd like to, but - - An engagement?

I must meet a man at the bridge at 6:00.

Is that right? Then you haven't much time.

- It's not him. - A mistake! Let's go!

What a mistake.

Hold on.

This is a fatal cut.

Do you have any requests?

Thank you.

Give this...

Want it delivered to someone?

Yes, to a man named Kojiro Sasaki.

Kojiro Sasaki?

No!

Confess! Who is he?

Mother!

I'll tell you who he is.

Musashi Miyamoto.

Am I right? He's my rival.

If you love him so much, I know what I'll do.

Help! Somebody!

Sounds like it's settled at last.

Poor thing.

Don't be squeamish, after persuading her so much.

- You don't understand a mother. - A mother, eh?

It's 6:00. I must go.

Akemi.

Mother. You -

Stop her!

Wait. She's just frightened. Weren't you?

I must go take care of Musashi.

Hurry up.

Otsu!

I'm so sorry.

Forgive me.

I waited for you for three years by Hanada Bridge.

I traveled over a year,

in search of you.

I won't let you go. Never.

Otsu.

I want to be with you, too.

While traveling these months I've missed you so much.

I dreamt of you every night on the road.

I'd like to settle down with you somewhere in the mountains.

The old Takezo would do so.

Please! I won't let you go.

Never!

I've dreamed of meeting you all this time, myself.

Be kind to me as you used to be.

Please.

But why not?

Why?

I became wiser. And more ambitious.

I was torn between my love for you and my love for the sword.

And far have I traveled.

To speak the truth now,

my heart has chosen the way of the sword.

I know that.

My heart aches because I know it.

Don't you see?

A man must go his way and a woman hers.

But the way of women is love.

There is no other way to live without love.

- Musashi Miyamoto? - Yes.

- You're Yoshioka's students? - We are.

What does your master say?

He accepts your challenge.

- Where and when? - Before that, we want your life.

Is that Yoshioka's answer?

Cowards!

Musashi, don't run!

I challenge Seijuro to a duel.

The famed House of Yoshioka should accept a fair duel.

Don't let him get away!

Stop!

Don't lose him! Over there!

Wait. One moment.

He's too skillful for you.

Stop and think it through.

Impetuous novice.

It's true that I'm young.

But I am experienced.

If Musashi hadn't done so, I might have challenged Yoshioka.

I missed the chance. - Impertinence!

Come forward! I'll punish you, bluffer!

Am I a bluffer?

I'll show you I'm not.

Childish as it may seem. - What?

I dislike modesty.

Very well. Show me.

I'll punish you for your insults by beheading you.

- You can't! - I can indeed.

The "swallow-turn!"

Takezo!

Did you say "Takezo"?

- Yes. I met him. - You met Takezo?

But he's gone away.

Isn't Takezo also called Musashi Miyamoto?

Then you must be Otsu.

How do you know so much? Even my name?

Tell me. Who are you?

Please tell me.

Never mind who I am.

Want to know?

Shall I tell you?

I'm the girl Takezo promised to marry.

That's not true. It can't be.

Are you saying he's yours?

He is -

Takezo is mine. You can't have him.

How dare you run after him, while engaged to Matahachi.

You shall not have him. Go back home where you belong!

You -

I was about to kill myself.

I'm glad I didn't.

I can't die, with you around.

Otsu.

You're a poor soul.

But Takezo is my life.

I won't give him up.

Takezo isn't like that.

"Alas. Woe is woman," saith the Buddha.

Otsu, you spent your childhood in a temple.

You ought to know the destiny of humankind

with its endless erring,

its darkness, sadness and heedlessness.

I'm hopeless.

I can't go on.

People come to us only when they are desperate.

I'm serious, Priest Takuan.

I wish I could be a nun to serve Lord Buddha for life.

Why do you cry?

Only think that you were not born to marry Musashi.

You need not cry. Nor become a nun.

You say that so easily.

Stay here a while and relax your tired soul.

Fortunately, you have a companion here.

Hey! Come here!

A nice team you'll make, as you're a stray as well.

So many stray sheep today.

Are you asleep, sir?

- Tell me, did you find Akemi? - I did.

- Did you? - However -

What is it? Where is she?

How do you feel?

You groaned in your sleep.

You spoke about Seijuro and Musashi, too.

I want to leave.

Suit yourself.

I didn't ask you to come here.

But it's cold outside.

Come over here.

It's warm here.

You're pretty.

Why resist?

You're no different from the others. You pretend to be kind, but -

I was joking.

I felt like doing so because you talk so much about Musashi.

All men are liars.

- Musashi, too? - No, he isn't.

Want to know where he is?

Where is he?

Instead -

What is it?

Yes, tell me where he is.

I lose.

I see I'm no substitute for Musashi.

I'm a soiled woman.

I don't mind anything.

But I must see him once again.

Suppose he has another in mind?

- I don't care. - He won't marry you.

But I must tell him I love him.

Where is he?

I'm beginning to like you.

Musashi is a lucky fellow.

He can die content.

Die?

Yoshioka's men are after him.

They won't get him.

Maybe not.

I hope not.

He must become renowned.

My aim is high.

Well, well.

I took your topknot last night, didn't I?

I want to talk to you.

- Want the topknot back? - I want the woman with you.

Mister, aren't you polite?

You trespass and make unreasonable demands.

But this sword may refuse. - Take him!

Want a fight?

This sword came back from Master Honami's only yesterday.

It's sharp.

You first? Or you?

You may come singly or together, as you please.

Ready?

I know him.

One moment!

Stop, Sasaki!

How do you know my name?

I know your style.

You must be Kojiro Sasaki.

For you

Only for you

On a field of snow

I will lie down

Even if it means

This body of mine

Will melt away too

I like drinking better.

How did you like her dance? Pay her some compliments.

I hope you liked it.

It was flawless.

I find no weakness to attack.

Always swordsmanship!

- How about a drink? - Please, please.

- I'm very weak. - At what?

In your swordsmanship?

Probably.

Does drink hinder your training?

"Drink hinders training. It weakens the mind.

It checks one's advancement in life."

Such sayings are all nonsense.

- Well - - Please.

May I help you?

She's great, isn't she?

May I ask his name, please?

His name, eh?

Will "Mr. Weak" do?

I was willing to fight, but you foolishly intervened,

and tarnished the name of the Yoshioka School.

I don't like it.

We'll find Musashi.

Your brother has returned.

- Denshichiro, welcome home. - Welcome, nothing.

What about our ruined name?

Denshichiro, I'm the master of our house.

I don't take orders from you.

Master of the house. Weakling.

Denshichiro, watch your language.

Stop, Denshichiro!

He wasn't fit to succeed Father in leading this house.

I'll fix Musashi myself!

I tell you, we don't have a guest named Musashi here.

You may search the house.

Strange.

You see, they come again and again. It's very unpleasant.

I sympathize with you.

And where is he?

Koetsu, my son, took him to the Ogiya House.

In the geisha quarters?

If he should hide himself awhile, the affair may subside.

So I persuaded my son in order to avoid useless trouble.

It's kind of you. I thank you on behalf of Musashi.

You there.

- Master Koetsu must be here. - Master Koetsu?

With a husky young samurai.

- Mr. Weak? - No, Mr. Strong.

We call him Mr. Weak because he can't drink.

Really?

Then, deliver this to this strong Mr. Weak.

Deliver it directly to Mr. Weak in person.

At the Rengein Temple yard, at 9:00 tonight.

Denshichiro Yoshioka.

- Thanks. - Be sure to come back.

I certainly will.

If you don't, Lady Yoshino will scold me.

I'll come back. So keep this a secret.

No seconds. People may talk. Stay away.

He came!

Musashi!

Denshichiro?

That's right.

I was away on a journey of training.

As my brother's proxy, I'll punish you.

With wooden sword or steel?

You know my answer.

The snow is falling deep

Monk Horen's hut is out of sight

What is he doing asleep?

He's reading sutras all night

Eating snow to keep his might

My, you're back. - I came back just now.

You've been here all along?

It must have been cold.

Master Koetsu is still in? - I'm not sure.

If he isn't, I want to leave.

You mustn't leave without seeing Lady Yoshino.

It's impolite.

- What shall I do? - She is impatient.

Enjoying the snowy scenery?

Your hand is freezing.

A blood stain!

It's a petal from a peony, dear.

What happened?

You didn't even flinch.

What composure.

How did you get it? Tell me.

Musashi. Are you afraid of me?

If you can't conquer a courtesan,

you can hardly call yourself a great samurai.

Come.

Hold me tightly in your arms.

You crave self-mastery,

for you lack affection.

Human affection.

Are you offended?

No, you're a woman.

It's because I'm a woman?

Do you mean to slight women?

Or is it because you pity women as weak beings?

Musashi.

Or do you reject my statement

because I'm only a courtesan?

I can read your mind very easily,

as clear as the reflection in a mirror.

If only he hadn't been so rash.

Are you going to fight a duel with Musashi?

I have to.

- If you please, I'll second you. - No thank you.

I admire your spirit, if I may say so.

But then, don't duel with him.

- What? - I'm saying this as your friend.

It's ill fortune that your house was marked by him.

That vicious sword!

You'll need tact.

Akemi,

I'm sorry I've confined you here.

Do you curse me?

But I'm not such a bad man.

I hold you very dear.

Akemi.

Give me just one kind word.

Then I can face a duel in high spirits.

A duel? With Musashi?

I must win.

I think I can. But I need your blessing.

You won't have it.

You took advantage of me.

I'll make up for my wrong.

I'll pray for Musashi to win.

I want to see you fall in a pool of blood before him!

I curse you!

Over here.

- Got the money? - Don't worry.

Here, 200 gold pieces.

We can live for years on that.

What about Akemi?

Don't worry. A pretty girl can always get by.

Idiot!

How dare you!

- Are you all right, young man? - Pull yourself together.

Why, it's Matahachi! My son!

Mother!

It was all because of Takezo that you came to this.

We must get him, by hook or by crook.

Don't worry. I'll make a name for myself.

Mother, have a look at this.

What is this?

- A diploma from the Chujo School. - In swordsmanship?

I studied with Master Ito.

As soon as I opened my own hall,

I had planned to send for you, enthusiastically.

Why does it say "To Kojiro Sasaki"?

I took on another name.

I couldn't say, "I'm a Honiden who's gone broke."

I know.

If you've become so good, we'll get Musashi.

The Buddha be praised.

Halt!

It's not him.

Has he escaped?

He's still lying low at Yoshino's.

A coward! We'll stay here until he comes.

What?

They're calling me a coward?

Yes, but you are not.

Where's Yoshino?

She's engaged at a party.

Despite my wish to share with you a moment of love,

you depart so quickly to my great sorrow, lone and sad.

Must you go?

I wanted to see her before leaving,

but please give her my best regards.

When will you come next?

Well -

Go tell him good-bye.

If I see him, I must stop him.

But I want him to become a true samurai.

How I've suffered!

This is the one and only

heartfelt love I've ever had.

One moment.

Don't make fools of yourselves.

Not here. This isn't a mere brawl.

If you must fight, fight like samurai.

Not here!

You'll stand guarantee for Musashi?

- Well, I might. - You might?

Won't he escape?

He would if he could, like any man.

- You'll let him escape? - No, I won't.

It all depends on his own choice.

Let me introduce myself.

I'm Kojiro Sasaki, hailing from Iwakuni Province.

You must have heard us. Your terms?

None.

I have no intention of hiding away.

I'll take their terms.

Very manly of you.

- All right? - Very well.

Listen.

Seijuro Yoshioka will come seconded by a few of his men

to the Ichijoji Temple tomorrow morning at 5:00.

Very good.

If either of you violate this promise, you'll become a laughingstock.

We'll post placards to announce it.

Agreed, Musashi?

Good. I'll be there on time.

"I hereby accept your challenge and promise to fight a duel with you...

...at the lone pine tree of the Ichijoji Temple

at 5:00 a.m., February 19th.

Should you fail to appear, you will become a laughingstock.

Should I fail to appear, Heaven will punish me.

Seijuro Yoshioka to Musashi Miyamoto."

Otsu! Otsu!

Priest Takuan is doing your hair?

She's become a disciple of Lord Buddha.

What does that mean?

I become a nun.

And shave off your hair like him?

Oh, don't. I like you better as you are.

Otsu, are you ready?

Are you sure?

It's you who wavers.

I can't help it. It's so pretty and ample.

When my hair is shaven off, all my worries will be gone, too.

Will you hurry?

Very well. I'll do it.

Otsu, hurry over to the Ichijoji Temple.

The Master will duel with Yoshioka!

- Musashi? - Sure. Let's go.

- Is it true? - It's true.

I saw placards announcing it.

Please, Takuan.

Postpone this until tomorrow.

I must see him, even if only a glimpse.

Then I'll become a nun.

You are destined to walk the path of darkness, I'm afraid.

- Why stop me? Such audacity! - Wait, Seijuro.

Where? When?

It was promised in my name. I must go!

I mustn't be a coward!

Here he comes!

Halt! Stop!

Wait! Calm down!

I'm Sasaki.

I'm the witness.

Why tilt spears at me like that? Why so frightened?

What have you come here for?

To encourage Seijuro.

- Mind your own business. - Where are you, Seijuro?

I'm Kojiro Sasaki!

I want you to withdraw from here.

Withdraw? But I'm the witness.

Who asked you to be one? Musashi?

Then you aren't one. Neither party has asked you.

A meddler!

You call me a meddler.

I see. Now I see your intention.

You're hiding Seijuro himself

to stage an ambush.

Want a fight?

The famed House of Yoshioka is falling.

Poor Musashi. He'll die in a treacherous attack.

Remember, son.

You must kill Otsu first, and then Musashi.

Let me help you, Otsu.

Jotaro!

- Out of my way! - Otsu!

Hey, kid, what are you doing? Stop it!

Otsu!

Let me go, Matahachi!

Mother wants me to kill you. But I don't want to.

- Let me go! - Wait, Otsu!

Let's run away together.

Matahachi, I'm no longer engaged to you!

You betrayed me.

You married Oko!

Damn kid!

Has Matahachi done what he should?

There's a deep gulf between our hearts

which cannot be crossed.

You mean you care for Takezo?

Yes, I do.

I love him.

Damn you.

I must kill you!

Wait!

- Who are you? - Who are you? A bandit?

How dare you!

If you aren't a bandit, then what's your name?

- Well - - Why hesitate?

Show him your Chujo School swordsmanship!

- What? Chujo School? - Yes.

I have the supreme diploma signed by Master Ito.

Out of my way.

One moment. May I ask your name again?

Kojiro Sasaki.

I'm Kojiro Sasaki. Surprised?

Yes, I am.

I've never been so surprised in my life.

Let me ask you, then, Mr. Kojiro Sasaki.

Who am I?

How should I know? Who are you?

- Allow me to introduce myself. - Go ahead!

- Don't be scared. - I won't!

I am Kojiro Sasaki, the real one.

Don't move!

I RESPECT THE DEITIES I DO NOT RELY UPON THEM

Takezo!

I'm so glad! At last I've found you.

How have you been?

Is your mother all right?

That's not important.

Don't go to the duel. Run away with me.

Don't be silly.

I must fight like a samurai.

We'll meet again if I live.

Don't go. Seijuro isn't coming.

What?

They're scheming foul play. The 80 of them.

So you must evade them.

Run away with me.

You're bound to be killed if you go.

Please, don't go!

Akemi, thank you for warning me.

But if I run away, they'll call me a coward.

ICHIJOJI TEMPLE ROAD

Here he comes! Musashi's coming!

Musashi's coming!

I came as I promised.

Why won't Seijuro show himself? Come out!

Why don't you show yourself, you coward?

Come out and fight!

It's begun.

To the pine tree! Hurry!

Save him!

It's too late.

He's alone. He was too reckless.

The only way to live is to run.

Don't.

It might distract him.

Into the paddies, eh?

Good. He might yet be spared.

Surround him! Trap him!

Get him!

He's over there. This way!

Don't let him get away!

Come around this way!

He ran away. He's learning.

Let's go home. The razor's waiting for us.

Takuan.

I've decided not to become a nun.

What?

I'll find him even if it's the end of me.

I'm Seijuro Yoshioka.

My men stopped me. I apologize for my delay.

Is that right?

I'm the son of Kenpo Yoshioka. I will not dishonor the name.

I'm glad! I've been longing to meet you.

I'll defeat you.

You are too strong.

It's brutal force.

Swordsmanship is chivalry.

You lack affection.

There's the Master!

It's just like a dream.

It is.

It hasn't been this peaceful in years.

Let's see Matahachi one day.

Matahachi?

We'll see him and his mother and discuss things.

A quiet talk often works.

Let's do so.

Before that, let me ask you.

What is it?

Are you really through with him?

I am.

Why? Please!

Why not?

No. Don't.

You mustn't.

Takezo!

I HAVE RENOUNCED THE LOVE OF WOMEN

Good luck, Musashi.

Develop yourself.

As you develop yourself, I also will do the same.
