WEBVTT
00:03.460 --> 00:05.710
Owari
00:08.060 --> 00:08.920
Princess Hitei.
00:08.920 --> 00:10.130
You're late.
00:10.630 --> 00:12.050
How long were you planning on making me wait?
00:12.050 --> 00:13.970
I'm terribly sorry, but...
00:12.070 --> 00:15.820
Mask: "Unconcealed"{emonzaemon's mask: 不忍 - means 忍ばず, should we TL this to 'Un-Concealed' or somesuch?}
00:13.970 --> 00:15.810
I don't want to hear excuses.
00:15.810 --> 00:19.520
Getting here without being seen took some time.
00:19.520 --> 00:23.020
Excuses like that won't make me any less angry.
00:23.020 --> 00:23.690
Yes.
00:23.980 --> 00:27.820
So, what's been happening with that unpleasant woman?
00:27.820 --> 00:31.280
The strategian is headed towards Kyushu.
00:31.280 --> 00:34.660
Apparently they were delayed, as they had just defeated Sabi Hakuhei.
00:35.870 --> 00:41.330
After taking down Japan's strongest swordsman, they've been receiving endless challenges from swordsmen who want the title.
00:41.870 --> 00:45.630
They are likely getting a lot of real battle experience as a result.
00:45.880 --> 00:47.840
Sabi Hakuhei...
00:47.840 --> 00:50.800
The man upon whom I bestowed the title of Japan's Strongest.
00:50.800 --> 00:54.510
How foolish of them to get cocky merely from beating him.
00:54.510 --> 00:58.180
I believe they will arrive at Satsuma shortly.
00:58.600 --> 01:02.190
Which means their next target is Zokutou Yoroi...
01:02.190 --> 01:06.440
It's quite arrogant of her to move ahead without even stopping back at Owari.
01:06.440 --> 01:11.740
Considering that they've collected 4 of Shikizaki Kiki's 12 Perfected Deviant Blades,
01:11.740 --> 01:15.700
of whom General Kyuu couldn't even find one, it's understandable.
01:15.700 --> 01:18.450
I didn't ask what you think.
01:18.730 --> 01:19.140
Yes.
01:19.620 --> 01:23.330
But that's definitely like her.
01:23.330 --> 01:25.500
Though we mustn't underestimate them.
01:25.500 --> 01:29.500
Besides the strategian herself, that swordsman she has with her is...
01:29.500 --> 01:32.340
Ah, the swordless swordsman?
01:32.340 --> 01:33.470
What's his name?
01:33.470 --> 01:37.010
The 7th generation Kyotouryuu head, Yasuri Shichika.
01:37.680 --> 01:42.680
Throughout their journey, this man has not once taken physical damage from his foes.
01:42.680 --> 01:45.190
He's gotten by without even a scratch?
01:45.190 --> 01:48.110
Right, without even a scratch.
01:49.400 --> 01:55.360
Neither Uneri Ginkaku's Zerosen nor Tsuruga Meisai's Sentou could cut his body.
01:55.360 --> 01:58.660
In Kyotouryuu, they forge their bodies as a sword.
01:58.660 --> 02:05.640
Though, I should note that the Kyotouryuu school's strength lies not in offense but in defense.
02:06.620 --> 02:09.040
Quite the lucky ticket she drew...
02:09.040 --> 02:12.130
She has the devil's luck, as usual.
02:12.130 --> 02:14.670
I look forward to future developments.
02:15.800 --> 02:20.470
Zokutou Yoroi is a sword that boasts immeasurable defensive power.
02:20.470 --> 02:22.430
Defensive strength vs. defensive strength...
02:22.770 --> 02:25.360
I wonder how this will turn out...
02:28.690 --> 02:29.360
Satsuma
03:05.810 --> 03:08.390
Let the fight begin!
03:18.340 --> 03:32.870
onore o harahara hana ni tatoete chirinuru o
03:18.340 --> 03:32.870
己をはらはら花に例えて 散りぬるを…
03:18.340 --> 03:32.870
Just like the flowers, I'll scatter away...
03:34.440 --> 03:39.630
tsumi aguneta guren no tama o
03:34.440 --> 03:39.630
摘みあぐねた紅蓮の霊を
03:34.440 --> 03:39.630
My crimson heart was furious,
03:40.250 --> 03:45.260
sarau ano hi areshi mune yori
03:40.250 --> 03:45.260
さらう彼の日 荒れし胸より
03:40.250 --> 03:45.260
the day it was plucked dry and snatched away
03:46.090 --> 03:51.620
osoruru mama mikoto wa habataite
03:46.090 --> 03:51.620
恐るるまま命は羽搏いて
03:46.090 --> 03:51.620
Even with my frightened heart,
03:51.620 --> 03:57.250
yagate yagate ten no hate ni
03:51.620 --> 03:57.250
やがて やがて 天の果てに
03:51.620 --> 03:57.250
my life takes flight, to the end of the sky
03:57.250 --> 04:03.100
akaku somare surechigai kira no yume o
03:57.250 --> 04:03.100
朱く染まれ すれ違い綺羅の夢を
03:57.250 --> 04:03.100
The dyed red, glittering dream we encountered by chance,
04:03.100 --> 04:11.630
ataeta mou machiwabite meiya ni samayoi
04:03.100 --> 04:11.630
与えたもう 待ち侘びて冥夜にさまよい
04:03.100 --> 04:11.630
I offer to you, waiting around, lost in the dark night
04:11.630 --> 04:14.800
tomoni moe youka
04:11.630 --> 04:14.800
共に燃えようか
04:11.630 --> 04:14.800
Shall we blaze away together?
04:15.050 --> 04:20.610
omoi ga harahara mau yue ni
04:15.050 --> 04:20.610
想いがはらはら舞う故に
04:15.050 --> 04:20.610
With our fluttering thoughts dancing along,
04:20.610 --> 04:26.440
watashi wa mayoi o kinjite
04:20.610 --> 04:26.440
私は迷いを禁じて
04:20.610 --> 04:26.440
I will no longer have any doubts
04:26.440 --> 04:32.230
mugen no kairou yori umareta
04:26.440 --> 04:32.230
無限の回廊より生まれた
04:26.440 --> 04:32.230
I'm heading towards the sky, to paint...
04:32.230 --> 04:40.000
kizuna o sara naru sora e egaite
04:32.230 --> 04:40.000
絆を更なる空へ描いて
04:32.230 --> 04:40.000
our bonds born from the endless corridor
04:40.000 --> 04:47.190
hana no chiranu uchi ni
04:40.000 --> 04:47.190
花の散らぬうちに
04:40.000 --> 04:47.190
As long as the flowers are still blooming
04:41.540 --> 04:48.050
Katana-
04:41.540 --> 04:48.050
Katana-
04:41.540 --> 04:48.050
gatari
04:48.050 --> 04:53.970
Zokutou
04:48.050 --> 04:53.970
Yoroi
04:56.430 --> 04:57.510
What's wrong?
04:57.510 --> 05:02.390
Weren't you going to slash my armor in two with that sword you're so proud of?
05:03.100 --> 05:08.480
Hey now, was your record five consecutive wins just a fluke?
05:08.730 --> 05:13.230
Or do you feel like running away now that you're actually face to face with me?
05:14.070 --> 05:14.900
Shut up!
05:15.190 --> 05:18.570
That decoration of yours is like a sheet of paper before the strength of my sword!
05:19.070 --> 05:19.990
Inakuzure.
05:19.070 --> 05:19.990
Note: Crumple to denial
05:20.000 --> 05:20.630
Inakuzure
05:22.830 --> 05:23.580
You fool!
05:23.580 --> 05:24.790
It's my win!
05:36.590 --> 05:37.510
Winner!
05:43.470 --> 05:44.640
Hey, Togame...
05:45.470 --> 05:47.350
The sword broke...
05:47.350 --> 05:48.440
What do we do now?
05:48.440 --> 05:52.770
It looks like you haven't been paying attention to what I was saying again.
05:52.770 --> 05:55.070
That swordsman was just a side character.
05:55.070 --> 05:58.920
The person we're interested in is that warrior in armor.
05:59.660 --> 06:01.030
The warrior in armor?
06:01.030 --> 06:01.910
Yep.
06:01.910 --> 06:05.200
The captain of the Yoroi Pirates, Azekura Kanara.
06:05.200 --> 06:07.580
He is your opponent this time.
06:08.500 --> 06:11.420
It looks like he's quite popular.
06:11.420 --> 06:16.420
So wait, he wasn't using his sword for this battle?
06:16.420 --> 06:17.670
Wrong.
06:18.090 --> 06:19.590
That armor is Zokutou.
06:20.890 --> 06:21.640
The armor?
06:22.140 --> 06:26.470
One of 12 Perfected Deviant Swords, Zokutou Yoroi.
06:26.470 --> 06:29.640
A Japanese sword modeled after western armor.
06:29.640 --> 06:34.900
But it would appear that this sword has fallen into the hands of a rather troublesome person too.
06:35.230 --> 06:41.660
Though, we were pretty lucky to catch a battle with Zokutou's owner right after arriving at the port.
06:42.030 --> 06:44.240
Shichika, let's figure out where to stay.
06:44.240 --> 06:47.120
I'll explain the details there.
06:51.080 --> 06:53.080
Kyushu is well known for its hot springs.
06:53.460 --> 06:56.550
It's a popular health resort with famous active volcanoes nearby.
06:56.550 --> 07:02.560
and it's said that if you dig a hole anywhere, hot water will gush out.
07:03.840 --> 07:09.240
After the mental and physical stress of their five month journey so far,
07:09.240 --> 07:13.980
a hot spring inn was just what they needed.
07:13.980 --> 07:17.070
Incidentally, it's mixed bathing.
07:17.400 --> 07:22.240
They say this hot spring is supposed to help heal bruises and sprains.
07:22.240 --> 07:22.740
How is it?
07:23.030 --> 07:25.280
I can't really answer that,
07:25.280 --> 07:28.490
since I haven't been injured anywhere.
07:28.490 --> 07:30.960
Oh, right.
07:30.960 --> 07:35.890
Though, a large bath like this feels great because I can stretch my legs out.
07:38.920 --> 07:39.760
Shichika...
07:40.460 --> 07:44.710
When we left the island, I said to you,
07:44.710 --> 07:50.140
"Protect the swords, protect me, and protect yourself."
07:50.640 --> 07:55.650
To tell you the truth, I'd thought that the last order would be the most difficult one,
07:55.650 --> 08:00.730
but even after fighting all those formidable opponents, there isn't a single scratch on you.
08:01.160 --> 08:05.750
Honestly, I'm really impressed.
08:06.410 --> 08:08.280
What? That's not like you.
08:09.910 --> 08:10.700
Really?
08:11.790 --> 08:17.250
Don't tell me you feel accomplished just because we've succeeded in collecting four swords?
08:17.250 --> 08:19.000
Of course not.
08:19.800 --> 08:21.490
It's just...
08:26.840 --> 08:27.970
Drink up.
08:27.970 --> 08:30.490
Sake is kind of...
08:31.310 --> 08:33.600
Just a little is fine, isn't it?
08:33.600 --> 08:37.230
Or are you saying you don't want the sake I'm offering you?
08:38.190 --> 08:41.250
Drink it!
08:44.320 --> 08:45.080
Ugh...
08:47.740 --> 08:48.590
So?
08:49.990 --> 08:52.260
"It's just..." what?
08:53.330 --> 08:55.230
It's just, you know...
08:55.230 --> 08:59.710
We took back Hakutou Hari from Sabi Hakuhei just a few days ago, right?
08:59.710 --> 09:04.920
Due to that, we have a little breathing room now in our sword collection journey.
09:05.420 --> 09:08.010
I don't get it.
09:08.010 --> 09:09.430
What do you mean?
09:09.850 --> 09:13.290
I'd already failed twice before...
09:14.080 --> 09:17.770
To make up for those, I was kind of rushing ahead on things.
09:18.310 --> 09:19.330
I see.
09:19.860 --> 09:23.990
We started off by taking Zettou Kanna from Maniwa Koumori,
09:23.990 --> 09:27.700
and now we've retrieved Hakutou Hari from Sabi Hakuhei.
09:28.450 --> 09:31.490
So now, there's no need to rush.
09:31.490 --> 09:34.790
We can slowly concentrate on collecting the rest without any worries.
09:36.620 --> 09:37.290
Slowly?
09:37.960 --> 09:40.960
Slowly and dirtily.
09:42.880 --> 09:47.840
To tell you the truth, I had doubts about you in the beginning.
09:48.970 --> 09:52.180
Well no, "doubt" is the wrong word.
09:52.180 --> 09:55.520
But I've always been betrayed,
09:55.520 --> 09:59.850
so I was afraid that you might leave me right after we obtained the swords.
10:01.270 --> 10:02.360
That's cruel!
10:02.820 --> 10:08.280
But I've recently decided that there's no need to worry about that.
10:08.280 --> 10:12.620
This isn't a journey you can make while shouldering those kinds of worries.
10:13.030 --> 10:21.080
Anyway, at this point I'm absolutely sure you won't suddenly betray me.
10:21.080 --> 10:23.930
So you can rest assured.
10:25.250 --> 10:27.050
What, after all this time?
10:27.050 --> 10:30.430
I thought you loved me to pieces from the start.
10:31.470 --> 10:33.680
No one decided that...{...no, that's not how the plot went.}
10:34.050 --> 10:40.980
And anyway, didn't you seek out Kyotouryuu precisely because you wanted to avoid being betrayed like with Maniwani and Sabi?
10:41.770 --> 10:44.220
Those who don't fight for money or for swords,
10:44.220 --> 10:47.190
the swordless swordsmen — Kyotouryuu.
10:47.190 --> 10:49.240
I suppose...
10:49.240 --> 10:50.400
And most importantly—
10:50.740 --> 10:51.530
Love?
10:52.030 --> 10:53.370
Exactly!
10:53.370 --> 10:55.620
A man who will move for love.
10:55.620 --> 11:00.330
I fell for you, so there's no way I'd betray you.
11:00.330 --> 11:04.750
I've found new love for you every day of our journey these last five months.
11:05.540 --> 11:06.800
It doesn't really show...
11:08.710 --> 11:12.440
You don't seem like you'd do anything even though we're in a hot spring bath together.
11:13.590 --> 11:16.680
What do you mean? You're the one who invited me.
11:16.680 --> 11:18.320
I suppose...
11:19.310 --> 11:21.080
Ah, that's right.
11:21.080 --> 11:22.770
Stand up, Shichika.
11:23.770 --> 11:26.440
I said stand up right there.
11:26.440 --> 11:27.500
Okay...
11:31.820 --> 11:35.950
You really do have a big body, now that I actually look.
11:35.950 --> 11:39.910
You're on the slim side for your height, but nothing about you looks weak.
11:40.290 --> 11:43.710
Haven't you gotten more muscular during our journey?
11:44.210 --> 11:45.460
I have?
11:45.460 --> 11:49.940
I don't really pay attention to that kind of stuff myself...
11:50.510 --> 11:54.130
But if you say so, I guess so.
11:54.130 --> 11:55.140
Why?
11:55.640 --> 11:56.970
No reason.
11:56.970 --> 12:00.640
Sorry for staring at you like that.
12:01.100 --> 12:04.240
Now, let's talk about our plans.
12:10.060 --> 12:12.920
You're not going to wear all those layers like usual?
12:12.920 --> 12:15.850
Someone with no sense like you wouldn't understand,
12:15.850 --> 12:19.050
but being able to lounge around at a hot spring inn is relaxing.
12:21.020 --> 12:21.960
What do you think?
12:21.960 --> 12:24.840
It's the first time you've seen me in a yukata!
12:25.190 --> 12:26.330
What?
12:27.610 --> 12:28.860
Never mind.
12:29.670 --> 12:32.780
That armored warrior holds one of the Deviant Blades,
12:32.780 --> 12:35.190
and that armor is itself is Zokutou Yoroi...
12:35.200 --> 12:35.890
Is that possible?
12:36.310 --> 12:37.220
Yes.
12:37.730 --> 12:44.440
It might have been hard to tell from a distance, but the joints of the various parts of the armor are made of sharp blades.
12:46.070 --> 12:51.200
It's the Deviant Blade that was made not with offense but defense as its primary focus — Zokutou Yoroi.
12:52.080 --> 12:55.330
Remember how he completely shattered his opponent's sword.
12:58.830 --> 13:03.880
It'll take a considerable amount of effort to put even a scratch on Zokutou.
13:04.250 --> 13:06.590
I get that, but wait...
13:07.510 --> 13:09.970
I'm not allowed to harm the swords at all, right?
13:09.970 --> 13:11.300
Of course not.
13:11.300 --> 13:16.220
However, there are a number of other ways we can win.
13:16.310 --> 13:18.020
It's rare for you to come up with a plan that fast.
13:19.230 --> 13:23.860
Even against an iron bulwark of armor, anyone can come up with a few ways to defeat it if they use their head.
13:24.980 --> 13:25.690
For example?
13:25.690 --> 13:27.240
Push him into the sea.
13:31.320 --> 13:37.910
Even armor without any chinks would flood and suffocate its user if sunk.
13:37.910 --> 13:44.750
And if we attach a strong chain to his foot or something, we can quickly pull it up after he drowns.
13:44.750 --> 13:47.880
And if we clean it up properly afterwards, it won't rust.
13:48.170 --> 13:51.300
Y-You sure come up with some evil plans...
13:51.300 --> 13:53.260
We could also use heat.
13:53.680 --> 13:57.310
We'll heat up the armor, making sure not to damage it.
13:57.390 --> 14:00.350
Any kind of metal is easy to heat up, after all.
14:00.350 --> 14:03.600
And then naturally, the insides would also heat up, killing the user.
14:06.480 --> 14:07.420
What's the matter, Shichika?
14:07.820 --> 14:09.190
N-Nothing...
14:09.190 --> 14:11.110
But, okay...
14:11.110 --> 14:16.700
If we're free to use backhanded methods, then we could just attack him when he's not wearing the armor.
14:16.700 --> 14:19.910
I'd say that's more "obvious" rather than "backhanded"...
14:20.660 --> 14:22.170
But that man...
14:22.170 --> 14:27.090
Azekura Kanara would never take off that armor in front of anyone.
14:30.670 --> 14:34.760
Our foe this time is definitely troublesome.
14:35.140 --> 14:38.890
Let's be fully prepared before going into this...
14:52.320 --> 14:54.160
That feels so good!
14:54.160 --> 14:55.870
I see, it feels good there?
14:56.620 --> 15:01.700
Though I've got to say, I feel a bit weird doing this...
15:01.700 --> 15:03.410
Your feet have stopped!
15:03.410 --> 15:04.290
Step on me more!
15:04.290 --> 15:05.750
"Step on me more"?
15:05.750 --> 15:09.420
It would feel great if you stepped lightly on my head.
15:09.420 --> 15:11.420
I really can't...
15:18.810 --> 15:24.350
I'd heard that the armor was big, but I didn't think it would be so huge.
15:24.350 --> 15:28.730
Shichika, a difference in height leads directly to a difference in strength.
15:29.480 --> 15:31.900
That sounds just like something little Togame would say.
15:33.240 --> 15:33.780
Cheerio!
15:34.820 --> 15:36.820
It's been a while since you hit me with a "cheerio".
15:36.820 --> 15:37.780
Shut up.
15:37.990 --> 15:42.040
Of course, small people have their own methods of fighting.
15:42.040 --> 15:44.120
You can outmaneuver the opponent, and you're light.
15:44.120 --> 15:48.710
But you aren't familiar with fighting like that, are you?
15:49.090 --> 15:51.590
This time will be different.
15:51.590 --> 15:55.590
You'll be fighting a giant man called Azekura Kanara.
15:55.590 --> 15:57.430
Don't you have some sort of plan?
15:57.430 --> 15:59.510
Not in regards to this, no.
15:59.510 --> 16:03.560
The strategies of martial arts is a field I know nothing about.
16:03.560 --> 16:04.770
Think for yourself.
16:04.770 --> 16:06.940
An opponent larger than myself...
16:06.940 --> 16:08.690
It's true, I've never thought about it...
16:08.690 --> 16:09.690
Ma'am?
16:10.900 --> 16:13.480
Stop! Hurry up and stop!
16:13.480 --> 16:14.110
What is it?
16:14.650 --> 16:16.820
Please excuse the late night interruption.
16:16.820 --> 16:20.530
There's a person out front saying he'd like to meet you.
16:20.530 --> 16:21.870
Who?
16:21.870 --> 16:25.790
The Yoroi Pirates Captain, Azekura Kanara-sama.
16:28.880 --> 16:33.050
I never expected you to actually come find us first.
16:33.500 --> 16:34.460
Well no...
16:34.840 --> 16:39.050
Shichika's reputation as a swordsman is common knowledge by now.
16:39.050 --> 16:41.350
I should have anticipated this.
16:41.680 --> 16:42.510
So?
16:42.510 --> 16:45.180
What business does the effective ruler of this port city,
16:45.180 --> 16:52.150
the Yoroi Pirates Captain Azekura Kanara-dono, have with simple travelers such as us?
16:52.520 --> 16:56.400
Well, it isn't anything as grand as "business"...
16:56.400 --> 17:01.870
I'd thought so when I saw you at the Obon Arena, but looking at you closer, you really are quite cute!{check: Oobon Amphitheater -> Arena or Amphitheater?}
17:03.030 --> 17:04.990
And I love the color of your hair!
17:04.990 --> 17:06.540
Why thank you.
17:06.540 --> 17:09.710
That armor also suits you quite well.
17:11.330 --> 17:13.920
So, what business did you come here for?
17:13.920 --> 17:16.840
I said it isn't anything as grand as business!
17:16.840 --> 17:19.430
Azekura-dono, us simple travel—
17:19.430 --> 17:21.640
You're no simple travelers.
17:22.180 --> 17:27.130
The army general director in support of critical tasks under direct control of the Yanari Shogunate, Togame-dono,
17:27.130 --> 17:28.840
and the 7th Kyotouryuu head.
17:28.850 --> 17:32.220
You defeated Sabi Hakuhei in a duel on Ganryuu Island,
17:32.220 --> 17:38.240
and even being swordless, you obtained the title of Japan's strongest swordsman, Yasuri Shichika-dono.
17:38.240 --> 17:41.570
Calling the two of you simple travelers is rather absurd.
17:41.570 --> 17:43.990
He even knows about Shichika's heritage...
17:43.990 --> 17:46.910
You're currently collecting swords, correct?
17:47.410 --> 17:49.370
I didn't come here to interrogate you or anything.
17:49.710 --> 17:52.790
I'm a man of Kyushu.
17:52.790 --> 18:01.760
As you're aware, and as you can see, I bear one of the 12 Perfected Deviant Blades that Shikizaki Kiki forged, Zokutou Yoroi.
18:01.760 --> 18:05.560
You came here to tear this armor off me, right?
18:06.140 --> 18:07.810
Maybe.
18:10.390 --> 18:12.770
Assuming that's true, what of it?
18:12.770 --> 18:21.360
As a pirate yourself, surely you're not shocked at the idea of having your own belongings taken from you?
18:21.360 --> 18:22.660
I guess that's true.
18:23.110 --> 18:26.890
To hurt others, you must be prepared to be hurt yourself.
18:26.890 --> 18:29.580
I steal from others, so I have the resolve to be stolen from.
18:30.000 --> 18:32.500
The same goes for the resolve to kill.
18:32.870 --> 18:33.790
Resolve, huh...
18:35.130 --> 18:36.960
No, nothing.
18:37.300 --> 18:38.550
I see.
18:38.550 --> 18:41.470
I didn't come here to make the first move or anything.
18:41.800 --> 18:43.760
Well, you say that...
18:43.760 --> 18:46.390
Here's what comes to mind first.
18:47.100 --> 18:53.060
You've already had your men surround this inn, trapping us like mice.
18:53.060 --> 18:55.310
I haven't brought anyone else with me.
18:55.310 --> 18:56.900
I wonder.
18:56.900 --> 18:57.480
Shichika.
18:59.530 --> 19:00.570
Cheerio!
19:02.650 --> 19:03.240
Huh?
19:03.240 --> 19:05.110
What are you zoning out for?
19:05.110 --> 19:06.530
Uh, sorry...
19:06.530 --> 19:07.700
Kyotouryuu, huh...
19:07.700 --> 19:08.660
I know it.
19:09.370 --> 19:11.540
The hero of the rebellion.
19:11.540 --> 19:16.080
The fact that you're the 7th generation head must mean that Yasuri Mutsue has retired?
19:16.790 --> 19:18.960
Father's dead.
19:18.960 --> 19:20.590
He, uh...
19:20.590 --> 19:21.780
Well, he died.
19:22.420 --> 19:23.880
What the heck's that?
19:23.880 --> 19:26.010
Everyone has their own past.
19:26.010 --> 19:30.510
But I would have preferred that you gained the title of Japan's strongest after you defeated me!
19:30.890 --> 19:32.850
You're quite aggressive...
19:33.310 --> 19:38.310
It's natural for anyone born a man to wonder who's stronger.
19:38.310 --> 19:42.230
The title of Japan's strongest isn't something you carry around lightly.
19:42.940 --> 19:45.240
I will agree with you there.
19:45.860 --> 19:47.820
Now, Azekura-dono...
19:47.820 --> 19:49.830
I'll ask you straight up.
19:49.830 --> 19:54.160
You're aware of who we really are, as well as our true purpose.
19:54.160 --> 19:59.840
So why did you, the owner of Zokutou Yoroi, come to this inn?
19:59.840 --> 20:04.050
I doubt you came to hand over Yoroi as a present to the Shogunate.
20:04.380 --> 20:05.970
Not a chance!
20:06.510 --> 20:10.720
It would be the end of us as pirates if we were to show obedience to the Shogunate!
20:10.720 --> 20:14.390
Pirates are fundamentally anti-government, anti-establishment.
20:15.060 --> 20:18.940
Now, this is the important part, Togame.
20:18.940 --> 20:22.190
Let's say that you manage to tear this armor off me.
20:22.190 --> 20:24.570
What would you do after that?
20:24.570 --> 20:25.990
Head for Shikoku?
20:25.990 --> 20:32.830
No, if we manage to take Zokutou Yoroi from you, we'd probably head back to Owari for a bit.
20:33.330 --> 20:35.500
By land? Sea?
20:35.500 --> 20:39.920
Well we are at a port city, so I'd prefer sea if possible.
20:39.920 --> 20:44.170
I'm sure there are boats that leave from Dakuon Port to Owari.
20:44.170 --> 20:45.210
Indeed!
20:45.210 --> 20:50.720
Boats here leave for Owari, Tosa in Shikoku, the capital of Kyoto, Edo, Shiryouzan...
20:50.720 --> 20:54.100
Even Ryukyu or Ezo if you want. Endless possibilities!
20:54.100 --> 20:57.310
After all, this is my port!
20:57.310 --> 20:57.690
However!
20:58.980 --> 21:02.110
If you really were to steal Zokutou Yoroi from me...
21:02.110 --> 21:05.990
Do you really think you could leave my port safely?
21:06.990 --> 21:08.990
He's already prepared?
21:08.990 --> 21:12.450
He came to call us out on our plans before we even got down to work...
21:12.450 --> 21:14.910
This man has read ahead quite a bit.
21:14.910 --> 21:18.660
That being the case, you may like what I came here to say.
21:18.660 --> 21:20.000
Let's hear it.
21:20.000 --> 21:24.840
No matter who falls, the Shogunate will come out on top in the end.
21:27.920 --> 21:28.970
Kyotouryuu.
21:28.970 --> 21:30.470
Let's duel.
21:31.680 --> 21:33.180
D-Duel?
21:33.180 --> 21:34.050
Yeah.
21:34.050 --> 21:37.810
If you can defeat me, I'll hand over Zokutou.
21:37.810 --> 21:42.400
My pirate crew and everyone else in the city will stay out of it.
21:43.810 --> 21:45.270
That sounds too perfect.
21:45.610 --> 21:49.110
Of course, I have a few terms to go along with it.
21:49.110 --> 21:50.200
Which are?
21:50.200 --> 21:54.200
Just so you know, the Shogunate can't decriminalize active pirates.
21:54.200 --> 21:59.620
We're not so bad off that we have to seek their exoneration.
21:59.620 --> 22:02.830
I just want you to help me look good.{Norg: as in help promote his name by having a showy battle at the arena}
22:02.830 --> 22:03.540
Look good?
22:03.540 --> 22:08.880
The name "Yoroi Pirates Captain Azekura Kanara" is pretty well known in this area.
22:08.880 --> 22:12.180
I want the duel to be held in Obon.{check - I think think Oobon should be arena}
22:12.180 --> 22:12.720
Why?
22:12.720 --> 22:14.890
I forbid private fights here.
22:14.890 --> 22:19.060
However, if you fight there, it's just business.
22:19.060 --> 22:26.020
And win or lose, having Japan's strongest swordless swordsman fight will rile up the audience.
22:26.020 --> 22:30.650
As a member of the Shogunate, I'm sure you'd be happy to see a revitalization of the local economy.
22:30.650 --> 22:32.780
Are you trying to turn Shichika into an attraction?
22:33.110 --> 22:36.740
That would be a cheap price to pay to get Zokutou, no?
22:36.740 --> 22:40.540
Is he really going to wager his sword on something like that?
22:40.540 --> 22:46.170
I suppose it's possible that he truly does just want to fight Shichika, the 7th generation Kyotouryuu head.
22:46.170 --> 22:48.000
Is this the blade's poison at work too?
22:49.300 --> 22:53.550
I still haven't heard the most important part yet, Azekura-dono.
22:54.550 --> 22:59.160
If we beat you, we get Zokutou Yoroi,
22:59.160 --> 23:03.890
along with safe passage back to Owari.
23:04.520 --> 23:07.690
But what happens if you beat us?
23:07.690 --> 23:10.940
You're considering the possibility that you'll lose?
23:10.940 --> 23:12.740
That's pretty timid of you.
23:13.280 --> 23:17.620
If you defeat us, what are you looking for as a reward?
23:18.450 --> 23:21.500
There's no way he'd let us go for nothing.
23:21.500 --> 23:24.620
He's most likely after the four swords we've already obtained.
23:24.620 --> 23:26.210
Good call.
23:27.460 --> 23:29.420
If I win...
23:29.420 --> 23:32.460
I'll take you, Togame.
23:32.460 --> 23:34.720
I see, I see...
23:34.720 --> 23:35.130
What?
23:35.840 --> 23:37.470
Y-You don't want our swords?
23:37.470 --> 23:38.510
Swords?
23:38.510 --> 23:40.180
I don't care about those.
23:40.180 --> 23:42.060
The one I have is more than enough.
23:42.060 --> 23:44.520
I'd rather have you, Togame.
23:51.650 --> 23:53.360
I've fallen in love at first sight.
23:53.360 --> 23:54.700
Please be my woman!
24:02.420 --> 24:05.250
Even if he loses, you'll still come out on top.
24:05.250 --> 24:11.880
Because, if you become my woman, I'll take over that guy's position. {hand over it in succession?}{Norg: Yeah.. I guess he'd be travelling around in the armor, so it's kind of like Togame has collected it? XD}
24:12.510 --> 24:17.400
I'd always thought that if someone from the Shogunate dared step foot here, I'd send them back without their head,
24:17.400 --> 24:19.770
but I've changed my mind after seeing you.
24:20.090 --> 24:22.700
I want to help you out, from the bottom of my heart.
24:23.270 --> 24:26.520
As a tactician, you should see how good this deal is.
24:27.860 --> 24:31.740
Having the pirates as allies would definitely be beneficial...
24:47.210 --> 24:49.460
Kyotouryuu's fourth secret technique:
24:47.210 --> 24:50.630
Note: Red blossom and green willows
24:49.460 --> 24:50.630
Ryuuryoku Kakou!
24:50.630 --> 24:51.300
Ryuuryoku Kakou
24:56.470 --> 24:57.100
Alright...
25:00.520 --> 25:01.850
I see.
25:01.850 --> 25:04.060
So this is your armor-piercing technique.
25:04.060 --> 25:05.800
Quite splendid.
25:05.800 --> 25:09.230
This mirror was pretty expensive, though...{not sure what she means}{Shichika demonstrated the move by breaking the mirror through Togame's clothing and without hitting her}
25:09.230 --> 25:10.400
Well, whatever.
25:11.570 --> 25:17.280
So you're able to deal damage anywhere you want with this technique?
25:17.280 --> 25:19.490
Well, basically yes.
25:19.490 --> 25:24.710
I can strike skin, muscle, organs, bones, or anything else.
25:24.710 --> 25:30.000
My father told me that the trick to this technique is the conduction of the shock from the impact,{Norg: The impact creates a shock, which I guess Kyotouryuu can control where the shock effectively strikes beyond the area impacted}
25:30.000 --> 25:32.670
but I just go with my instincts.
25:32.670 --> 25:33.510
Instincts?!
25:33.510 --> 25:37.890
You used something as unreliable as that and aimed at my stomach?!
25:37.890 --> 25:39.560
What if I died?!
25:39.560 --> 25:41.020
I didn't really think that far.
25:41.020 --> 25:43.890
If I had known that, I wouldn't have participated!
25:43.890 --> 25:47.020
Change my sash, Shichika.
25:47.020 --> 25:47.480
Okay.
25:53.900 --> 25:55.700
What are you doing?!
25:55.700 --> 25:57.950
I just felt like teasing you a bit.
25:57.950 --> 25:59.460
Why?!
25:59.460 --> 26:02.950
If you play tricks with your superhuman strength, my body will break!{ I won't last out!}
26:02.950 --> 26:05.870
Geez, what were you thinking?
26:05.870 --> 26:07.000
Togame.
26:07.370 --> 26:10.880
What did you think about that guy's proposal?
26:10.880 --> 26:13.420
I'd already decided a while ago.
26:13.420 --> 26:17.590
In fact, I had already decided when Azekura was still standing in front of us.
26:17.590 --> 26:20.390
I slept so well last night that I didn't even dream—
26:22.810 --> 26:24.560
What are you doing?!
26:26.480 --> 26:27.980
I wonder myself...
26:27.980 --> 26:30.810
I somehow got the urge to tease you...
26:30.810 --> 26:32.940
This is bullying already!
26:32.940 --> 26:34.820
You just kicked me!
26:34.820 --> 26:38.610
Come on, aren't you always hitting me?
26:38.610 --> 26:40.120
Now we're even!
26:41.370 --> 26:43.700
You're being rather rebellious today...
26:43.960 --> 26:46.250
So, what's your decision?
26:46.750 --> 26:48.270
I shouldn't have to say.
26:48.270 --> 26:50.870
His proposal is just what we need.
26:50.870 --> 26:55.090
If we simply accepted his proposition on the spot then we would seem too willing.
26:55.090 --> 26:56.800
I just wanted to make him wait a little.
26:56.800 --> 26:59.430
No, I don't mean that...
26:59.430 --> 27:04.130
Would Azekura Kanara be suitable as your bodyguard?
27:04.890 --> 27:11.360
Well, it's true that the pirate's information network would be more useful than any clout the Shogunate carries from this point on—
27:11.980 --> 27:12.520
27:12.520 --> 27:14.530
What are you doing?!
27:14.530 --> 27:15.590
I don't know.
27:15.590 --> 27:16.560
My hand just moved...
27:16.560 --> 27:19.120
Don't play around with a woman's hair!
27:19.120 --> 27:21.280
It seems a little late to be saying that...
27:21.740 --> 27:23.810
But anyway, how about this?
27:23.780 --> 27:31.000
We get the Yoroi Pirates to cooperate with us in the shadows, and you and I continue to collect the swords.
27:31.340 --> 27:34.510
Azekura probably wouldn't accept that.
27:34.510 --> 27:38.800
It's probably true that he wants to fight Japan's strongest swordsman,
27:39.480 --> 27:47.280
but beyond that, assuming what he said was true, Azekura probably just sees you as an obstacle.
27:47.280 --> 27:47.890
An obstacle?
27:48.140 --> 27:50.160
That's how he sounded.
27:50.160 --> 27:53.790
As a man, he'd want to monopolize his woman.
27:53.790 --> 27:57.610
So I guess that's not a bad proposal then...
27:57.610 --> 27:58.320
No.
27:58.320 --> 28:00.700
It could have any number of catches.
28:00.700 --> 28:02.470
It's not something I can trust.
28:02.470 --> 28:04.420
In the end he's a pirate, after all.
28:04.420 --> 28:08.370
But didn't you say you can trust in someone who moves for love?
28:08.840 --> 28:11.650
I suppose I did say that.
28:16.100 --> 28:20.550
You may look grown up, but you sure say some childish things...
28:21.720 --> 28:23.470
What do you mean by that?
28:23.470 --> 28:25.040
Well...
28:25.040 --> 28:27.330
Tell me what you think about this then.
28:27.330 --> 28:31.920
What if that man become my bodyguard in place of you?
28:31.920 --> 28:33.810
What would happen to me in that case?
28:34.150 --> 28:36.070
That depends on the result of the duel.
28:36.070 --> 28:37.980
If you die, you die.
28:37.980 --> 28:40.000
If you barely manage to survive...
28:40.000 --> 28:43.820
I guess you'd go back to Nanami on Fushou Island.
28:44.210 --> 28:45.530
That's...
28:47.550 --> 28:48.740
....not what I want.
28:49.030 --> 28:50.040
You don't want that?
28:50.040 --> 28:51.920
But... I guess...
28:51.920 --> 28:55.580
If you're saying that you could collect swords more easily that way—
28:55.580 --> 28:56.290
Cheerio!
28:56.670 --> 28:59.130
Even for me, the tip of a toe hurts!
28:59.130 --> 29:03.980
Is that as far as your attachment to me goes?
29:04.470 --> 29:05.610
Listen, Shichika!
29:05.610 --> 29:06.320
As far as I'm concerned—
29:06.320 --> 29:07.930
Excuse me...
29:08.520 --> 29:09.680
What is it?
29:09.680 --> 29:12.520
A letter has arrived for you.
29:12.520 --> 29:14.620
A messenger from Azekura?
29:14.620 --> 29:15.810
From whom?
29:15.810 --> 29:17.700
I don't know his name, but...
29:17.700 --> 29:19.900
he was quite charming.
29:25.280 --> 29:31.290
I've accepted many jobs from you, but this is the first time we've met face to face, Togame-dono.
29:31.580 --> 29:33.710
No... Strategian-dono.
29:33.710 --> 29:39.600
This is indeed the first time we've met, but I've heard a lot about you.
29:39.600 --> 29:43.290
Commander of the Bird Squad and one of the 12 heads.
29:43.290 --> 29:45.630
You're essentially the Maniwa Corps leader.
29:45.930 --> 29:47.180
Maniwa Houou-dono.{Note: Houou = Phoenix}
29:50.930 --> 29:52.920
I'm certainly not the leader.
29:52.920 --> 29:54.660
You're overstating my position.
29:54.660 --> 29:59.730
I merely took on a provisional directorial role, since I have comparatively more common sense than the others.
30:00.270 --> 30:02.010
Don't let your guard down.
30:02.010 --> 30:07.160
This man is in a different league from the other 11 heads.
30:07.160 --> 30:09.300
You have no need to put up your guard.
30:09.300 --> 30:14.960
As I wrote in my letter, I just want to have a talk with the strategian.
30:14.960 --> 30:17.130
Do you think I can believe that?
30:17.130 --> 30:21.300
How many people do you think I've had to bow down my head to in shame because of you?
30:21.840 --> 30:26.200
And yet you accepted my request and came out to meet me.
30:26.200 --> 30:29.220
Doesn't that mean you intend to talk with me?
30:29.460 --> 30:33.130
I want to avoid any further business with the Maniwa Corps if possible,
30:33.130 --> 30:37.800
but if I know you're around, I can have you removed.
30:37.800 --> 30:40.150
I should eliminate that which I can.
30:40.830 --> 30:42.270
One arm.
30:43.890 --> 30:48.700
If you listen to what I have to say, I will cut off my left arm for you.
30:49.620 --> 30:53.010
You can have the arm of one of the 12 Maniwa Corps heads,
30:53.010 --> 30:56.750
and in your words, the effective leader, just for listening to what I have to say.
30:57.100 --> 31:00.570
I offer you one arm just to listen, that's all.
31:00.570 --> 31:01.740
How about it?
31:01.740 --> 31:03.750
I don't really...
31:08.880 --> 31:10.350
There you go.
31:10.350 --> 31:14.860
I am also fully prepared to cut off my right arm too, if you'd like.
31:14.860 --> 31:16.420
N-No, that's fine...
31:16.420 --> 31:17.560
I'll hear you out.
31:17.560 --> 31:19.810
But you won't mind if Shichika stays, right?
31:20.230 --> 31:22.850
No, I have no problem with him hearing this.
31:22.850 --> 31:26.710
The 7th generation Kyotouryuu head, Yasuri Shichika, right?
31:26.710 --> 31:30.530
I believe you were acquainted with Koumori, Shirasagi, and Kuizame.
31:30.860 --> 31:32.590
You're well informed.
31:32.590 --> 31:33.950
Well technically—
31:34.200 --> 31:40.360
We haven't been able to contact Chouchou, Mitsubachi, or Kamakiri from the Insect Squad.
31:40.360 --> 31:43.160
Might that also be your doing?
31:43.160 --> 31:46.350
No, I don't know anything about that.
31:46.350 --> 31:47.260
I see.
31:47.260 --> 31:56.250
Either way, this means that in just half a year, the Maniwa Corps heads has lost half its members.
31:56.250 --> 32:00.560
We may have been wrong in betraying you, Strategian-dono.
32:01.020 --> 32:08.370
Well, there was no real choice for our troubled Maniwa village to begin with, but I won't go there.
32:08.370 --> 32:10.780
We'll have to make do with the remaining 6 of us.
32:11.120 --> 32:12.610
Do you think you can do it?
32:12.610 --> 32:14.370
No, rather,
32:14.370 --> 32:15.580
do you think we'd let you?
32:15.580 --> 32:18.130
I don't suppose you would.
32:18.130 --> 32:22.480
There is currently a three-way face-off between the sword owners, yourselves, and us.
32:22.480 --> 32:26.800
For us to continue fighting for the swords would be reckless.
32:27.730 --> 32:33.050
And that is why, Strategian-dono, I wish to propose a temporary alliance between us.
32:33.050 --> 32:34.580
Alliance??
32:34.580 --> 32:37.600
Did you come all the way to Kyushu just to make fun of me?
32:37.920 --> 32:40.020
You could call it a mere temporary truce.
32:40.550 --> 32:43.060
We wouldn't have had so much trouble if it were that easy.
32:43.060 --> 32:44.810
We're after the same thing.
32:45.240 --> 32:50.860
It's true that we are both seeking the same thing, but not quite in the same way.
32:50.860 --> 32:54.960
We would be happy to obtain just two or three swords.
32:54.960 --> 32:55.720
Meaning?
32:55.720 --> 33:01.250
We could just aim for them in the opposite order to that which you are following.
33:01.580 --> 33:04.580
So we'd avoid fighting each other for each sword?
33:04.840 --> 33:06.000
Exactly.
33:06.580 --> 33:13.690
Given that I'm lacking intel, it's a worthwhile move to leave the Maniwani at large for a while.
33:13.690 --> 33:17.800
Even if they succeed, all we'd need to do is steal the swords back from them.
33:17.800 --> 33:25.040
Of course, if these negotiations break down, I'll have to fight with you right here,
33:25.040 --> 33:27.020
but personally I'd rather not.
33:27.560 --> 33:28.230
Is that a threat?
33:28.480 --> 33:31.010
No, it's not a threat...
33:31.010 --> 33:31.650
...yet.
33:32.310 --> 33:34.530
Instant battle if we refuse...
33:34.530 --> 33:36.820
And against Maniwa Houou, what a creepy guy...
33:37.210 --> 33:39.200
I still don't have enough information.
33:39.850 --> 33:41.870
Soutou Kanazuchi.
33:39.850 --> 33:41.870
Note: Hammer, the Pair
33:42.900 --> 33:45.460
That's the last sword I know the whereabouts of.
33:45.700 --> 33:49.500
Of course, that will be the next sword we aim for.
33:49.500 --> 33:52.710
If you go after other swords, we won't clash.
33:53.200 --> 33:55.340
Alliance formed, then.
33:55.340 --> 33:56.980
It's not an alliance.
33:56.980 --> 33:58.570
It's a temporary truce.
33:58.570 --> 34:01.060
This helps. Thank you.
34:01.390 --> 34:03.180
Mutsu's Mountain of Spirits.
34:03.180 --> 34:04.830
Tendou in Dewa.
34:04.830 --> 34:06.300
And Edo.
34:06.300 --> 34:09.770
There appear to be Perfected Deviant Blades in these three locations.
34:10.470 --> 34:12.070
Why are you telling me this?
34:12.500 --> 34:17.160
Consider it a gesture of gratitude for accepting my one-sided demands.
34:17.520 --> 34:19.320
What is he scheming...
34:19.320 --> 34:22.580
And it would appear that Princess Hitei in Owari has begun to move.
34:24.080 --> 34:25.320
Princess Hitei?
34:25.320 --> 34:28.380
Wait Houou, what exactly is that woman up to!?
34:28.700 --> 34:32.320
Who knows? But I suggest you deal with it quickly.
34:32.320 --> 34:33.590
You have my thanks.
34:34.020 --> 34:37.460
For the time being, I'll trust you on today's talk.
34:37.460 --> 34:41.430
But if you break the promise and we run into each other collecting a sword...
34:41.740 --> 34:45.010
My sword will cut you down without hesitation.
34:45.010 --> 34:46.350
Understood.
34:47.220 --> 34:48.520
Well then, I'll be off.
34:50.400 --> 34:52.480
Ah yes, there was one more thing.
34:53.670 --> 34:57.320
I heard that you've been hitting your subordinate, followed by saying "cheerio".
34:57.730 --> 35:02.520
I'd been thinking something seemed wrong with it, but after coming to Satsuma I've finally figured out what it is.
35:02.520 --> 35:04.840
You should be saying "chest".
35:07.320 --> 35:10.750
"Cheerio" actually means "goodbye" in the language of a foreign land.
35:10.750 --> 35:12.170
N-N...
35:12.540 --> 35:15.130
Nooooo!!
35:15.350 --> 35:16.800
No, no, no!
35:16.800 --> 35:18.520
This is a misunderstanding! A misunderstanding!!
35:18.520 --> 35:20.140
Wait, wait, wait a minute!
35:20.140 --> 35:22.010
I don't think I'm stupid!
35:22.010 --> 35:22.840
I'm not stupid!
35:22.840 --> 35:25.830
I'm not embarrassed! I don't get embarrassed!
35:25.830 --> 35:26.890
I'm not mistaken!
35:26.890 --> 35:31.130
H-H-He's the mistaken one!
35:32.620 --> 35:33.400
Gyafun!
35:35.630 --> 35:37.040
Is it that bad?
35:37.040 --> 35:38.760
You have it wrong, all wrong!
35:38.760 --> 35:39.700
Sh-Shichika!!
35:39.700 --> 35:40.130
Yes?
35:40.130 --> 35:44.120
Shichika, Shichika, Shichika, Shichika!
35:41.250 --> 35:44.120
Yes, yes, yes, yes!
35:44.580 --> 35:46.750
You should understand!
35:46.750 --> 35:48.910
It's not that I was mistaken!
35:48.920 --> 35:50.420
I'm not wrong!
35:50.780 --> 35:51.580
Um...
35:51.580 --> 35:54.210
It was just a once off... once off...
35:54.210 --> 35:55.480
No, I mean...
35:55.480 --> 35:56.380
It was deliberate!
35:56.380 --> 35:57.800
D-Deliberate?
35:58.090 --> 35:59.520
Right, deliberate!
35:59.520 --> 36:01.920
Who do you think I am?
36:01.930 --> 36:07.140
I'm the army general director in support of critical tasks under direct control of the Yanari Shogunate, Togame the Strategian!
36:07.140 --> 36:10.980
Logistics, schemes, war strategies, army plans, I can handle anything!
36:10.980 --> 36:14.820
There's no way I didn't know that "cheerio" was a foreign word!
36:14.820 --> 36:15.910
I... see...
36:15.910 --> 36:19.740
So why were you saying it deliberately?
36:21.420 --> 36:22.160
Because...
36:22.160 --> 36:23.320
Ahh, whatever!
36:23.320 --> 36:24.230
Lose your memory!
36:24.230 --> 36:26.790
Forget, forget, forget!
36:25.310 --> 36:26.790
Even if you tell me to...
36:27.100 --> 36:29.760
Besides, don't you think it's embarrassing?
36:29.760 --> 36:36.310
Just think, how many times, how many dozens of times have I yelled "cheerio" while punching you up until now?!
36:36.310 --> 36:38.630
W-Well... that's true...
36:38.630 --> 36:42.040
And each time, watching bystanders were thinking,
36:42.040 --> 36:47.470
"Why on earth is that white-haired girl saying farewell while punching someone?"
36:47.470 --> 36:49.600
No, I can deal with those!
36:49.600 --> 36:50.660
That's still okay!
36:50.660 --> 36:52.940
The problem is after arriving here at Satsuma!
36:53.520 --> 36:59.210
For example, what do you think that Azekura guy thought when he saw me punch you with a "cheerio!" last night?
36:59.210 --> 37:03.240
Yeah, you've been using "cheerio" quite often since we got to Satsuma.
37:03.240 --> 37:05.660
He definitely thought I was an idiot!
37:05.660 --> 37:08.930
The only impression people have been left with is "what an idiot"!
37:08.930 --> 37:11.500
Is there any worse disgrace?
37:11.500 --> 37:13.340
Well, I understand where you're coming from...
37:13.340 --> 37:16.870
But why does that mean I have to think it's embarrassing?
37:16.870 --> 37:20.960
I might have been the one to say it, but you didn't know it was wrong either!
37:21.200 --> 37:22.200
Well...
37:22.200 --> 37:23.840
Actually, I did.
37:27.180 --> 37:29.410
Cheerio!!
37:34.360 --> 37:36.270
Local pirates?
37:36.980 --> 37:40.570
How about you tell us what you were talking about with them?
37:41.940 --> 37:45.010
Luring them out was fine and all, but they turned out to be small fries...
37:45.010 --> 37:45.630
What?!
37:46.060 --> 37:48.200
What the hell did you say?!
37:48.200 --> 37:50.550
Count yourselves as fortunate.
37:50.550 --> 37:54.160
There aren't many people who can die to my ninpou.
37:54.160 --> 37:55.710
Ninpou: Danzaien {Circle(maybe ring sounds better..) of Decapitation}
37:54.160 --> 37:55.710
Note: Decapitation ring
37:58.350 --> 38:00.210
Captain!
38:00.210 --> 38:04.260
They've accepted your proposal, Captain!
38:04.720 --> 38:05.130
Right.
38:07.130 --> 38:09.680
Ryuukyuu
38:09.950 --> 38:12.060
Chest! Chest!
38:23.840 --> 38:27.410
Oh yeah, didn't we want a chore boy?
38:29.850 --> 38:33.120
Polish that armor up nicely.
38:34.950 --> 38:37.870
5 \years
later
38:38.130 --> 38:39.240
Kanara.
38:39.240 --> 38:41.960
Why don't you try that armor on?
38:43.170 --> 38:46.090
I had never forgotten.
39:00.250 --> 39:01.110
That woman...
39:04.820 --> 39:07.880
Making me remember such unpleasant things...
39:14.680 --> 39:18.500
How effective will Shichika's armor piercing be?
39:23.230 --> 39:25.360
He really is popular.
39:25.360 --> 39:28.460
I'll tell you this now, Kyotouryuu.
39:28.700 --> 39:32.350
I'm the kind of guy who can't hold back once I've gotten going.
39:32.350 --> 39:33.480
You will either die here,
39:33.480 --> 39:36.870
or if not, definitely sustain some pretty serious injuries.
39:37.540 --> 39:42.280
And if that makes the lady I've fallen for sad, there's no helping that.
39:42.280 --> 39:43.850
If you surrender right after the match starts,
39:43.850 --> 39:47.500
you'll be able to leave this arena unharmed.
39:49.000 --> 39:51.570
Shichika, for this battle...
39:51.570 --> 39:58.970
If you can, I'd like you to win without killing Azekura or permanently incapacitating him.
39:58.970 --> 40:00.570
What a demand.
40:00.570 --> 40:04.190
Could Togame possibly be thinking it's okay for me to lose this?
40:04.190 --> 40:06.240
Hey, don't ignore me.
40:06.930 --> 40:09.610
No, stop looking at my woman!
40:11.500 --> 40:15.460
It doesn't look like you'll do me the favor of surrendering, but that's fine.
40:15.990 --> 40:18.100
Just put up a fight, okay?
40:18.100 --> 40:23.040
Show the townspeople the skills of the man who defeated Sabi Hakuhei.
40:23.040 --> 40:25.510
You don't need to tell me that.
40:25.510 --> 40:30.290
However, by that point you'll be torn into pieces.
40:34.550 --> 40:38.220
That's the stance he used when he fought Uneri Ginkaku...
40:38.220 --> 40:39.470
What is he planning to do?
40:39.470 --> 40:40.890
Let the fight...
40:40.890 --> 40:42.330
I'll finish this in one hit.
40:43.720 --> 40:44.480
...begin!
40:46.510 --> 40:47.440
He vanished?!
40:47.940 --> 40:51.270
I'll show you my skills, but I don't intend to put on a show!
40:51.690 --> 40:54.360
Kyotouryuu: Ryuuryoku Kakou!
40:58.950 --> 40:59.870
He landed it!
41:01.490 --> 41:03.080
What the hell is that?
41:06.040 --> 41:06.540
Gothic!{Norg: by kanji 後の如く I guess... 'Like afterwards'?}
41:12.930 --> 41:14.590
What's wrong?
41:14.590 --> 41:16.570
Why can you still move?
41:16.570 --> 41:18.510
My attack should have landed.
41:20.080 --> 41:23.100
Did you use an armor-piercing attack, perhaps?
41:24.260 --> 41:26.650
So Kyotouryuu has those too...
41:26.650 --> 41:29.440
You're underestimating Zokutou Yoroi.
41:29.440 --> 41:32.940
I'm afraid Yoroi won't even let armor-piercing attacks through.
41:33.890 --> 41:35.680
Already out of ideas?
41:35.680 --> 41:36.800
Round Gothic!
41:36.800 --> 41:38.090
Kaishotai!
41:38.090 --> 41:39.660
Minchou!{Note: all of the above are font types}
41:39.660 --> 41:42.090
I see you're good at running around and dodging.
41:42.090 --> 41:43.750
Ryuuryoku Kakou!
41:48.020 --> 41:51.130
What a bad loser, Kyotouryuu.
41:53.290 --> 41:56.460
It's disappointing to think you're my predecessor.
41:56.460 --> 42:00.900
You have some nerve to call yourself Japan's Strongest.
42:00.900 --> 42:05.070
Have the resolve to accept your defeat as Yoroi's prey.
42:05.070 --> 42:06.110
Resolve...
42:06.770 --> 42:08.770
What is resolve?
42:08.770 --> 42:13.610
If Azekura is more skilled as a sword, should I concede victory?
42:14.730 --> 42:18.280
Accept it and have the resolve...
42:18.280 --> 42:20.330
Idiot!!
42:20.330 --> 42:21.230
Togame?
42:21.230 --> 42:23.930
What are you doing, giving up?!
42:23.930 --> 42:27.150
I don't remember giving you permission to do that!
42:27.150 --> 42:28.950
I told you to win!
42:28.950 --> 42:30.830
Weren't you listening, you fool?
42:31.450 --> 42:32.380
Listen, Shichika.
42:32.380 --> 42:33.750
As far as I'm concerned,
42:33.750 --> 42:38.980
a man who can't even show his face to the woman he's fallen for is worthless!
42:38.980 --> 42:43.680
What fun would there be in traveling with a guy I couldn't get into a hot spring with?
42:43.990 --> 42:45.930
There's no way I'd trust a man like that!
42:45.930 --> 42:47.010
Togame...
42:47.010 --> 42:49.970
So what if one of the Kyotouryuu techniques didn't work?
42:49.970 --> 42:52.100
So what if you can't use Kyotouryuu here?
42:52.100 --> 42:57.480
Even if you don't have armor, you've got that body you forged like steel for 20 years, right?
42:57.480 --> 42:59.900
If you really have fallen for me,
43:00.650 --> 43:03.470
then protect me with brute force!
43:04.170 --> 43:05.490
Understood, loud and clear.
43:07.920 --> 43:11.350
Kyotouryuu, first stance: Lily of the Valley.
43:11.960 --> 43:15.590
How careless of me to lost sight of my simple nature.
43:15.590 --> 43:18.710
I've been thinking too much lately.
43:18.710 --> 43:22.870
It's bad not to think things through, but overthinking isn't good either.
43:24.720 --> 43:26.140
Bring it, Mr. Rejected.
43:26.140 --> 43:30.390
I hadn't intended it, but the crowd has seen quite a show already.
43:30.870 --> 43:32.990
Don't get cocky...
43:32.990 --> 43:34.620
I'm a pirate.
43:34.620 --> 43:39.320
If there's something I want, I just get rid of anything in my way and steal it.
43:39.320 --> 43:41.330
If you want to steal, then go ahead.
43:41.330 --> 43:44.610
But isn't that Zokutou made for defense?
43:47.030 --> 43:50.160
People with something to protect are strong.
43:50.160 --> 43:55.460
This is a technique exclusive to Zokutou Yoroi that was passed down through the Yoroi Pirates.
43:55.460 --> 43:57.420
Touzoku Kamome!
43:55.460 --> 43:57.420
Note: Blade gulls
43:57.800 --> 43:58.460
Touzoku Kamome {The generic word for several types of seagull - Skua - is 盗賊鴎, so thi sis the same but with sword instead of steal.}
44:15.950 --> 44:17.100
Shichika!
44:23.960 --> 44:26.610
Those with large bodies are strong...
44:26.610 --> 44:29.710
But that doesn't mean the bigger you are, the stronger you are!
44:35.540 --> 44:36.670
That's the way!
44:36.670 --> 44:39.620
You were relying a little too much on Kyotouryuu.
44:39.620 --> 44:42.970
It's all you've known for 20 years, so it's not surprising,
44:42.970 --> 44:46.260
but it's definitely not the only thing you've got on your side.
44:46.260 --> 44:52.010
Even without using clever moves, you're more than strong enough with that tempered body of yours.
44:52.010 --> 44:54.000
Damn you, Kyotouryuu!
44:54.000 --> 44:55.940
This isn't swordsmanship or anything!
44:55.940 --> 44:58.950
You have my thanks, Azekura Kanara.
44:58.950 --> 45:01.480
Thanks to you, I finally understand.
45:01.480 --> 45:05.150
My existence may boil down to that of a single sword,
45:05.150 --> 45:08.510
but at the same time, I'm also a single human being.
45:08.510 --> 45:12.160
Also Azekura, there's one more thing I want to say.
45:20.710 --> 45:24.000
Don't touch my woman!
45:35.360 --> 45:36.730
Winner!
45:47.530 --> 45:53.140
Apparently you resemble the Captain's long dead younger sister, Togame-san.
45:53.910 --> 45:58.980
He was saying that if she were still alive, she'd be about the same age as you.
46:00.140 --> 46:00.960
How is he?
46:00.960 --> 46:03.480
Oh, he didn't sustain any serious injuries.
46:03.480 --> 46:05.300
He was back on his feet in no time.
46:06.210 --> 46:08.300
So he's not going to come to see us off...
46:11.550 --> 46:13.920
Well, what will be, will be.
46:14.760 --> 46:18.120
Just as you're more than strong enough even without using Kyotouryuu,
46:18.120 --> 46:22.480
Azekura Kanara is more than strong enough without Zokutou Yoroi.
46:22.940 --> 46:31.210
Though, I'm sure it'll take some courage for Azekura to show himself in front of others after having been hidden all this time.
46:31.210 --> 46:33.410
You should have gone to see him.
46:33.690 --> 46:37.580
I'm not so cruel as to give a rejected man false hopes.
46:37.580 --> 46:41.090
Rather, I think it'd be more polite if I were to leave quickly.
46:41.090 --> 46:43.080
Really?
46:43.380 --> 46:46.890
Anyway, something's been bugging me these past few days...
46:46.890 --> 46:47.630
What?
46:47.630 --> 46:50.550
How did you know that "cheerio" was wrong?
46:50.550 --> 46:53.880
I'd just heard it from my father.
46:53.880 --> 46:58.850
Though, you were saying it so boldly that I thought maybe I'd remembered wrong.
46:58.850 --> 47:00.300
I see.
47:01.020 --> 47:02.480
Cheerio!
47:08.860 --> 47:12.360
So she's decided to stick with "cheerio"...
47:12.790 --> 47:17.520
After some time, the two of them will be shocked when they realize the boat's course.
47:17.520 --> 47:22.750
It was Azekura's revenge for being rejected by Togame.
47:23.360 --> 47:26.650
Their boat wasn't actually headed for Owari,
47:26.650 --> 47:32.500
but was set to sail slowly round the Sea of Japan and eventually arrive at the cold lands of Ezo.
47:33.420 --> 47:38.690
The story of Katanagatari on this month and this evening ends here.
47:48.190 --> 47:54.980
tasogarezo watashiwo terasunara
47:48.190 --> 47:54.980
黄昏ぞ わたしを照らすなら
47:48.190 --> 47:54.980
Hey twilight, If I am illuminated,
47:55.340 --> 48:01.850
kokoromo sunaoni someteokure
47:55.340 --> 48:01.850
こころも素直に染めておくれ
47:55.340 --> 48:01.850
I'll obediently let you color my heart
48:02.470 --> 48:09.390
itsuno hika meimo nakiko funeno youni
48:02.470 --> 48:09.390
いつの日か 名も無き小舟のように
48:02.470 --> 48:09.390
Someday, like a small nameless boat,
48:09.570 --> 48:16.270
tayutafu nasakewo uchi akete mitai
48:09.570 --> 48:16.270
たゆたふ情けを打ち明けてみたい
48:09.570 --> 48:16.270
I would like to confess my wavering affection
48:16.630 --> 48:23.220
menomaeni arawaru kakugono shimae
48:16.630 --> 48:23.220
目の前に現る 覚悟の島へ
48:16.630 --> 48:23.220
Toward the island of resolutions in front of our eyes,
48:23.370 --> 48:25.420
tomoni ukebaima
48:23.370 --> 48:25.420
共にゆけばいま
48:23.370 --> 48:25.420
If we go together now,
48:25.420 --> 48:30.240
ushirono namishibukiga tooku natta
48:25.420 --> 48:30.240
後ろの波しぶきが遠くなった
48:25.420 --> 48:30.240
the splash of the waves will be far behind
48:30.440 --> 48:37.430
yasashiku naremeyoto koega moretara
48:30.440 --> 48:37.430
優しくなれめよと声が漏れたら
48:30.440 --> 48:37.430
I'm already used to the kindness, so I can let my voice slip
48:37.590 --> 48:44.520
konoyode hitoridake makotowo azukeyouka
48:37.590 --> 48:44.520
この世で一人だけ 誠を預けようか
48:37.590 --> 48:44.520
In this world, there's only one person I can entrust
48:44.700 --> 48:48.030
yasashii asuga kuru
48:44.700 --> 48:48.030
優しい明日が来る
48:44.700 --> 48:48.030
The gentle tomorrow will come
48:48.220 --> 48:54.530
haruka karekatano maboroshi oikakete
48:48.220 --> 48:54.530
遥か彼方のまぼろし追いかけて
48:48.220 --> 48:54.530
in the faraway place where an illusion was chasing us
48:54.530 --> 48:58.870
tadori tsuita kazeno mukouni
48:54.530 --> 48:58.870
辿り着いた風の向こうに
48:54.530 --> 48:58.870
Where I reached across the wind
48:58.970 --> 49:04.420
atsuikazeno mukouni
48:58.970 --> 49:04.420
熱い風の向こうに
48:58.970 --> 49:04.420
Across the hot wind...
49:11.780 --> 49:13.980
N-No, you've got it wrong!
49:13.980 --> 49:16.550
I knew that "cheerio" was a foreign word!
49:16.550 --> 49:17.860
I really knew!
49:17.860 --> 49:20.360
So forget about this incident!
49:20.360 --> 49:21.810
Got that? Forget it!
49:21.820 --> 49:23.340
"Cross your heart and hope to die"
49:23.340 --> 49:24.950
There, you promised Togame the strategian!
49:25.620 --> 49:28.240
Now, our next destination...
49:28.240 --> 49:30.280
What? Ezo?!
49:30.280 --> 49:31.040
It's cold!
49:31.040 --> 49:31.870
Cold! Cold! Cold!
49:31.870 --> 49:33.700
I'm dying! I'm gonna die!
49:34.410 --> 49:37.140
Next time on Katanagatari: Soutou Kanazuchi.
49:36.820 --> 49:40.360
Soutou
49:36.820 --> 49:40.360
Kanazuchi
49:37.140 --> 49:39.160
Ch-Cheerio!
