718
00:42:24,417 --> 00:42:27,670
there are five traces of power
that tower over the rest

719
00:42:27,712 --> 00:42:29,714
as if flaunting their strength.

720
00:42:30,340 --> 00:42:32,717
These must be Upper Ranks.

721
00:42:33,426 --> 00:42:34,969
One of them is at the same spot

722
00:42:35,011 --> 00:42:37,305
where Shinobu
was last seen fighting.

723
00:42:37,889 --> 00:42:39,307
Found another!

724
00:42:39,391 --> 00:42:42,352
Upper Six and Zenitsu have just
encountered each other!

725
00:42:42,394 --> 00:42:43,978
An Upper Rank!

726
00:42:44,020 --> 00:42:45,188
Is he alone?

727
00:42:45,230 --> 00:42:47,773
[KUINA] He is.
It looks to be a one-on-one!

728
00:42:47,815 --> 00:42:50,693
[KIRIYA] A Hinoe can't beat
an Upper Rank by themself.

729
00:42:50,735 --> 00:42:51,861
Send backup!

730
00:42:57,492 --> 00:42:58,743
[KAIGAKU] Hmm.

731
00:42:58,784 --> 00:43:00,870
What, you're frozen in fear?

732
00:43:00,912 --> 00:43:02,997
Guess some things never change.

733
00:43:03,039 --> 00:43:05,291
Once a coward, always a coward.

734
00:43:06,292 --> 00:43:08,336
Did you ever become a Hashira?

735
00:43:08,378 --> 00:43:10,422
[scoffs] Guess not.

736
00:43:10,463 --> 00:43:11,756
That's too bad.

737
00:43:12,257 --> 00:43:16,428
Got any new techniques?
Or still just First Form?

738
00:43:17,470 --> 00:43:19,097
For an Upper Rank bottom feeder

739
00:43:19,138 --> 00:43:21,266
who's nothing more
than a spare blade,

740
00:43:21,307 --> 00:43:23,560
you're sure acting
awfully proud.

741
00:43:24,436 --> 00:43:27,272
[Kaigaku sarcastically]
Wow! [laughs]

742
00:43:27,313 --> 00:43:30,442
Who taught you to talk
like that? New friends?

743
00:43:30,942 --> 00:43:33,278
[ZENITSU] Why the hell
did you become a demon?

744
00:43:33,778 --> 00:43:35,947
[laughs] You'd never understand.

745
00:43:35,988 --> 00:43:38,491
You were supposed to succeed
Thunder Breathing!

746
00:43:38,533 --> 00:43:39,992
But you tarnished it!

747
00:43:41,453 --> 00:43:42,579
Huh?

748
00:43:42,619 --> 00:43:44,872
[ZENITSU]
After you became a demon,

749
00:43:44,914 --> 00:43:46,124
he...

750
00:43:47,792 --> 00:43:49,502
He committed seppuku!

[♪ poignant music playing]

752
00:43:51,296 --> 00:43:52,671
[voice breaking] Even worse,

753
00:43:53,214 --> 00:43:54,924
he did it by himself.

754
00:43:56,134 --> 00:43:58,177
He was all alone!

755
00:43:59,387 --> 00:44:01,097
Because of that,
no one was there

756
00:44:01,139 --> 00:44:02,765
to put him out of his misery.

757
00:44:02,807 --> 00:44:06,018
He bled out
and died a painful death.

758
00:44:06,060 --> 00:44:07,853
It's your fault!

759
00:44:07,895 --> 00:44:11,065
Gramps died the most
agonizing death possible

760
00:44:11,107 --> 00:44:13,234
all because
the Thunder Breathing rights

761
00:44:13,276 --> 00:44:14,444
produced a demon!

762
00:44:16,154 --> 00:44:18,323
Why the hell should I care?

763
00:44:18,781 --> 00:44:21,200
Gramps died? So what?

764
00:44:21,242 --> 00:44:22,659
Want me to cry?

765
00:44:22,701 --> 00:44:25,204
Did you expect me
to give it to him?

766
00:44:25,246 --> 00:44:26,498
Well, I don't.

767
00:44:26,789 --> 00:44:30,084
In fact, I don't care for anyone
who doesn't appreciate me.

768
00:44:30,126 --> 00:44:31,961
No matter what,

769
00:44:32,003 --> 00:44:33,838
this is who I am.

770
00:44:33,879 --> 00:44:36,966
Take the side

If the old geezer
really did die in agony,

773
00:44:41,429 --> 00:44:43,139
then I couldn't be happier.

774
00:44:43,181 --> 00:44:46,351
I slaved away
for that ungrateful bastard.

775
00:44:46,392 --> 00:44:48,645
And what does he do to repay me?

776
00:44:48,685 --> 00:44:50,522
He makes you my co-successor

777
00:44:50,563 --> 00:44:52,565
instead of just letting me
carry the torch!

778
00:44:52,607 --> 00:44:54,150
I hope he rots!

779
00:44:54,691 --> 00:44:56,819
Former Hashira or not,

780
00:44:56,861 --> 00:45:00,281
I would never shed a tear
over some senile geezer.

781

[laughs boorishly]

782
00:45:05,453 --> 00:45:08,122
[ZENITSU] Gramps knew
exactly what he was doing.

783
00:45:08,623 --> 00:45:11,834
We were made co-successors
because we're weak.

784
00:45:11,876 --> 00:45:14,212
I was only able to use
the First Form

785
00:45:14,253 --> 00:45:17,089
while you could use
everything but First Form.

786
00:45:17,714 --> 00:45:19,758
I can't help
but feel sorry for Gramps

787
00:45:19,800 --> 00:45:22,220
that he has two
useless successors!

788
00:45:22,261 --> 00:45:24,096

Don't lump us together!

789

His speed is unreal.

797
00:45:51,040 --> 00:45:53,585
He never moved like that.

798
00:45:53,626 --> 00:45:55,336
He's changed.

799
00:45:56,879 --> 00:45:59,173
But he's not the only one.

There's no shame in kneeling
down before the powerful

if it means surviving.

803
00:46:14,939 --> 00:46:16,815
As long as you're alive,

804
00:46:16,857 --> 00:46:18,651
you can still win.

805
00:46:20,027 --> 00:46:23,197
Only once you die have you lost.

Even if you have to beg

Even if you're without a home
and have to drink from a puddle.

Even if they condemn you
for stealing money.

As long as you're alive,

there's still a future
where you can win.

811

Believing that
is all that's kept me going.

The stronger the swordsman,

the longer it takes for him
to become a demon.

819
00:47:08,576 --> 00:47:12,246
It took me three days
to fully transform.

820

Turning a breathing technique
user into a demon

821
00:47:15,625 --> 00:47:17,335
is no small feat.

822
00:47:17,376 --> 00:47:19,170
Doing such a thing will require

823
00:47:19,211 --> 00:47:22,047
an exorbitant amount
of my Lord's blood.

824
00:47:22,799 --> 00:47:24,759
And though it is rare,

This proves those who recognize
my talents and value are right!

914

And those that dismiss
or condemn me are wrong!

915

Do you get it now?
This is the power I have!

916
00:51:53,318 --> 00:51:55,487
My power as a demon that is!

917
00:51:55,947 --> 00:51:58,156
All you know how to do
is use First Form,

918
00:51:58,198 --> 00:52:01,243
yet that geezer chose
to make you his successor!

And, boy,
what a mistake that was!

This is the power that I gained
by becoming a demon.

00:52:54,421 --> 00:52:56,924

Guess the old bastard

He's your senior,

944
00:53:21,949 --> 00:53:24,160
Hang on. Isn't the First Form

945
00:53:24,200 --> 00:53:26,787
pretty much the entire basis
of Thunder Breathing?

946
00:53:26,829 --> 00:53:29,414
Yeah, and it's the only one
he can't do.

947

You know what that means,
don't ya?

948
00:53:31,750 --> 00:53:34,045
That even though
he's mastered other forms,

949
00:53:34,086 --> 00:53:35,587
he's still a weakling.

950
00:53:35,629 --> 00:53:37,006
Yep, exactly.

951
00:53:37,048 --> 00:53:39,675
The way he shows off, though?
He's got such an ego.

952
00:53:39,717 --> 00:53:42,260
[BOY 1] No way
he becomes a Hashira.

What did I do to deserve that?

I heard you went and punched
someone from a higher rank.

Don't go around making trouble,
you trash!

958

It's embarrassing even being
seen in the same room as you.

959
00:54:01,488 --> 00:54:04,742
[ZENITSU] I was fully aware
that you hated me, Kaigaku.

960
00:54:04,783 --> 00:54:08,579
And to be perfectly honest,
I hated you, too.

961
00:54:09,705 --> 00:54:13,709
Even so, I couldn't help
but respect you as well.

You never stopped
working towards your goals.

I looked up to you
as an example.

965
00:54:23,219 --> 00:54:25,637
You really were a special guy.

966

It wasn't just me.

00:54:28,974 --> 00:54:31,476
Gramps thought
you were remarkable, too.

satisfied with that, were you?

had a hole in it.

974
00:54:49,828 --> 00:54:52,414
And that joy kept leaking out.

to create a seventh?

use the First Form?

Please tell me there's a way!

1068
01:00:26,748 --> 01:00:29,000
Keep your voice down.
You're not helping.

1069
01:00:29,042 --> 01:00:31,711
Just watch out
for enemy ambushes.

1070
01:00:31,753 --> 01:00:34,131
At least then you'll actually be
doing something useful.

[grunting angrily]

1072
01:00:35,591 --> 01:00:38,510
Excuse me? And just
who the hell are you, huh?

1073
01:00:38,552 --> 01:00:41,138
I better not find out
you're a lower rank than I am!

1074
01:00:41,179 --> 01:00:44,808
I'm a demon. I don't care
about your hierarchy.

1075
01:00:45,601 --> 01:00:47,852
This'll slow
the Blood Demon Art.

1076
01:00:47,894 --> 01:00:49,771
But if these cracks
keep spreading,

1077
01:00:49,813 --> 01:00:52,274
it'll travel all the way
to his eyes.

1078
01:00:52,983 --> 01:00:54,526
Hey, can you hear me?

really sucks, you know that?

I'm also using a hemostatic,

1083
01:01:03,243 --> 01:01:05,120
but I still can't get
the bleeding to stop.

1084
01:01:05,162 --> 01:01:06,121
What did I say?!

1085
01:01:06,330 --> 01:01:08,499
Don't listen to him.
You're gonna be fine.

1086
01:01:08,540 --> 01:01:09,958
I swear
you'll pull through this!

1087
01:01:10,000 --> 01:01:11,335
Yeah, you can do it!

1088
01:01:11,376 --> 01:01:13,378
Fight on! Fight on!

1089
01:01:13,420 --> 01:01:15,380
The only reason
you're alive right now

1090
01:01:15,422 --> 01:01:16,965
is because
the Upper Rank you fought

1091
01:01:17,007 --> 01:01:19,343
still hadn't mastered
his own techniques.

1092
01:01:19,843 --> 01:01:21,803
That was lucky for you.

1093
01:01:22,346 --> 01:01:23,972
If you'd fought him
a year from now,

1094
01:01:24,014 --> 01:01:25,849
you would have died instantly.

I'm the one in the wrong here.

[TANJIRO] We haven't encountered
any Upper Ranks.

Are we still that far
from Muzan?

I hope the others are all right.

[TAMAYO] This place...
If I had to guess,

1150
01:04:40,377 --> 01:04:42,504
this fleshy cocoon
is breaking down

1151
01:04:42,546 --> 01:04:43,797

Muzan Kibutsuji,

1154
01:04:49,344 --> 01:04:54,015
I had sworn to destroy you
by any means necessary.

1155
01:04:54,599 --> 01:04:58,854
Yet, at this moment,
I am powerless to do so.

[♪ intense music playing]

1164
01:05:31,927 --> 01:05:35,014
[KIRIYA] According to Father,
if Muzan should die,

1165
01:05:35,056 --> 01:05:37,517
the other demons
will also perish.

1166
01:05:38,727 --> 01:05:42,689
By that logic, it's clear
that Muzan is still alive.

1167
01:05:43,981 --> 01:05:45,483
At this very moment,

1168
01:05:45,525 --> 01:05:48,445
Ms. Tamayo must be
suppressing his powers.

1169
01:05:49,362 --> 01:05:50,697
If she weren't,

1170
01:05:51,239 --> 01:05:54,158
he would surely be aware
of Yushiro's watchful gaze.

1171
01:05:55,201 --> 01:05:57,829
Before Muzan's powers
are fully restored,

1172
01:05:57,871 --> 01:06:01,249
we must do whatever it takes
to see that he's defeated.

1173
01:06:03,084 --> 01:06:04,502
I have to wonder, though,

1174
01:06:04,544 --> 01:06:07,963
inside of this
infinite castle...

1175
01:06:08,924 --> 01:06:11,301
...will we really
be able to find him

1176
01:06:11,342 --> 01:06:13,094
and put an end to it all?

1177
01:06:18,433 --> 01:06:20,435
No need to be nervous.

You're doing a fine job,
my child.

Muzan will surely reveal himself
once more,

just as he did when he found me.

1181
01:06:33,989 --> 01:06:38,703

that's simply his nature.

I will see to it
our plan succeeds.

1185

We must find him before

And all of the progress
he's made

1241

will be wound back like a clock.

In the many years that we've had
to endure this nightmare,

1243
01:09:59,904 --> 01:10:01,948
Nezuko is the only demon

1244

to live in the sunlight.

I sometimes

1258

when you brought
your demon sister to me.

1259

Ever since then,

1260
01:10:55,960 --> 01:11:00,381
it feels like a giant wheel
of fate has been slowly turning.

1261
01:11:01,465 --> 01:11:05,469
Perhaps it would be best to
compare the sum of our battles

1262
01:11:05,511 --> 01:11:08,305
to a giant dormant machine.

1263
01:11:08,347 --> 01:11:12,435
You and Nezuko are the small
cogs that have joined together

1264
01:11:12,476 --> 01:11:14,437

I despise is weak human beings.

is deserving of my scorn

01:30:27,505 --> 01:30:30,133
but I think Inosuke
was on to something.

1586
01:30:32,344 --> 01:30:35,264
What is it that
Akaza supposedly senses?

1587
01:30:35,305 --> 01:30:37,724
What does he mean
by "fighting spirit"?

1588
01:30:37,766 --> 01:30:39,559
Is it killing intent?

1589
01:30:39,601 --> 01:30:41,103
Is it the will to fight?

1590
01:30:41,144 --> 01:30:42,771
The time spent training?

1591
01:30:42,812 --> 01:30:44,356
Or maybe the amount?

1592
01:30:45,315 --> 01:30:46,482
Is it like the way

1593
01:30:46,566 --> 01:30:48,484
I can anticipate movements
through scent?

1594
01:30:49,819 --> 01:30:51,947
There must be something I can do

01:30:52,446 --> 01:30:54,241

Striking with killing intent.
Sensing the invisible.

Um, Father?
What do you think about

1613
01:32:06,729 --> 01:32:09,149
when you dance
the Hinokami Kagura?

1614
01:32:09,732 --> 01:32:13,695
If it's too tiring for you,
I can take your place next year.

1615
01:32:14,237 --> 01:32:16,572
I don't want you
to overwork yourself.

1616
01:32:18,074 --> 01:32:19,909
Thank you, Tanjiro.

1617
01:32:20,618 --> 01:32:23,121
But to be honest,
I haven't found the Kagura

1618
01:32:23,163 --> 01:32:26,540
to be the least bit tiring
over the last few years.

1619
01:32:27,167 --> 01:32:28,918
I can't quite explain it,

1620
01:32:28,960 --> 01:32:32,422
but back when I learned it
from your grandfather years ago,

1621
01:32:32,464 --> 01:32:36,468
even though I was younger,
healthier and stronger than now,

1622
01:32:36,510 --> 01:32:39,553
I found it to be
far more tiring back then.

[♪ poignant music playing]

1624
01:32:43,266 --> 01:32:45,977
[TANJIRO] For generations,
the Kagura was performed

1625
01:32:46,019 --> 01:32:48,771
by the Kamado family
at the start of each year.

1626
01:32:49,272 --> 01:32:51,274
It was an exhausting performance

1627
01:32:51,316 --> 01:32:54,194
that would last
from sunset till dawn.

1628
01:32:55,404 --> 01:32:57,947
There are 12 different forms
that must be repeated

1629
01:32:57,989 --> 01:32:59,908
over and over again,

1630
01:32:59,949 --> 01:33:02,536
thousands of times
before daybreak.

1631
01:33:05,372 --> 01:33:06,873
I think my exhaustion

1632
01:33:06,915 --> 01:33:09,251
was the result
of unnecessary movement.

1633
01:33:09,751 --> 01:33:11,420
Using the correct movements

1634
01:33:11,461 --> 01:33:14,339
and breathing patterns
are vital to the dance.

1635
01:33:15,090 --> 01:33:17,967
It's what allows you
to produce maximum strength

1636
01:33:18,009 --> 01:33:19,761
while using minimal actions.

1637
01:33:19,802 --> 01:33:22,805
Once you've mastered
your breathing and movement,

1638
01:33:22,847 --> 01:33:25,517
your mind will become
transparent.

1639
01:33:26,226 --> 01:33:28,019
Transparent?

1640
01:33:28,978 --> 01:33:30,730
But before any of that,

1641
01:33:30,772 --> 01:33:33,108
you must memorize
the moves of the dance

1642
01:33:33,149 --> 01:33:36,445
and slowly ingrain them
into your muscle memory.

1643
01:33:36,486 --> 01:33:39,948
In doing so,
you'll open up your five senses

1644
01:33:39,989 --> 01:33:42,451
and become aware
of the shape of your own body,

1645
01:33:42,492 --> 01:33:44,286
vessel by vessel.

1646
01:33:45,870 --> 01:33:48,915
That was the truly
strenuous part.

1647
01:33:48,957 --> 01:33:52,294
All you can think is that
even if you go on struggling,

1648
01:33:52,335 --> 01:33:54,212
you'll never succeed.

1649
01:33:54,754 --> 01:33:56,630
After you've learned
all these things

1650
01:33:56,672 --> 01:33:58,216
and committed them to memory,

1651
01:33:58,258 --> 01:34:01,428
you'll understand how to remove
what you don't need,

1652
01:34:01,470 --> 01:34:05,307
only leaving behind in your body
what is required of you,

1653
01:34:05,348 --> 01:34:07,267
closing off the rest.

1654
01:34:07,850 --> 01:34:09,102
Closing?

1655
01:34:09,852 --> 01:34:12,105
You know how people
often close their eyes

1656
01:34:12,147 --> 01:34:14,107
when they're trying
to hear better?

1657
01:34:14,857 --> 01:34:16,692
In that same way,

1658
01:34:16,734 --> 01:34:18,820
you'll pick out the things
you need the most

1659
01:34:18,861 --> 01:34:21,490
in the movement
while eliminating the rest.

1660
01:34:22,073 --> 01:34:25,868
Eventually, you will be able
to open and close the vessels

1661
01:34:25,910 --> 01:34:29,289
and muscles in your body,
as if it were second nature.

1662
01:34:29,331 --> 01:34:32,417
The same way you blink
without a second thought.

1663
01:34:33,126 --> 01:34:34,877
When that happens,

1664
01:34:34,919 --> 01:34:38,381
a path illuminated
by a bright light will open.

1665
01:34:39,633 --> 01:34:43,553
If your mind is as clear
as possible, you'll begin to see

1666
01:34:43,595 --> 01:34:46,097
the Transparent World
before you.

1667
01:34:46,139 --> 01:34:48,517
But this domain
can only be reached

1668
01:34:48,558 --> 01:34:50,477
by pushing yourself
past your limits,

1669
01:34:50,519 --> 01:34:53,146
despite the suffering
that may be required.

1670
01:34:53,687 --> 01:34:55,398
Will I ever get to see it?

If you work tirelessly,
then that's for you to decide.

...he hit it from the side.

1768
01:41:14,067 --> 01:41:15,820

There's no need for you to die

[GIYU] Tanjiro's behind him
and he hasn't noticed?

[AKAZA] He's still alive?

1817
01:44:39,148 --> 01:44:41,109
I never would have thought
someone like him

1818
01:44:41,150 --> 01:44:43,360
could survive
an attack like that.

1819

[AKAZA] In the last
several hundred years,

1843
01:46:02,273 --> 01:46:05,734
I've never once seen a human
without any fighting spirit.

1846

his fighting spirit vanished

1847

to begin with.

When on the battlefield,

there's no telling

But during that short battle,

1861
01:46:54,242 --> 01:46:58,704
he was able to grasp something
and use it to surpass my speed.

01:46:59,205 --> 01:47:01,665
Whatever it was he learned
was able to shatter

of martial arts techniques

1864
01:47:04,043 --> 01:47:06,045
with a single head-on attack.

1865
01:47:06,754 --> 01:47:10,883
Within those eyes of his,
there was no hatred, no rage,

1866
01:47:10,925 --> 01:47:14,011
no killing intent
or fighting spirit.

1867
01:47:14,678 --> 01:47:17,639
He must have somehow seen
what I'd been looking for:

1868
01:47:17,681 --> 01:47:22,061
the domain that lies
within the realm of the highest.

None other than

1935
01:51:23,552 --> 01:51:25,929
I can't hear out of my left ear,

1936
01:51:25,971 --> 01:51:28,056
and my right hand has gone numb.

1937
01:51:29,475 --> 01:51:33,020
I can still grip my sword,
but who knows for how long.

1938
01:51:41,694 --> 01:51:42,779
Wait!

1939
01:51:43,864 --> 01:51:44,990
I...

1940
01:51:45,616 --> 01:51:48,701
I'm here. I'm still alive!

1941
01:51:49,203 --> 01:51:53,748
If you wanna kill Tanjiro,
you'll have to defeat me first!

no matter what crisis
it finds itself in.

1945
01:52:05,511 --> 01:52:08,180
We don't fight the way
samurai do.

1946
01:52:08,222 --> 01:52:10,265
We don't carry weapons,

1947
01:52:10,307 --> 01:52:13,435
though we carry our convictions
like swords.

1948
01:52:14,978 --> 01:52:18,273
[MAN] Though we carry
our convictions like swords,

1949
01:52:18,982 --> 01:52:23,028
our battles are waged
with our fists.

1950
01:52:24,446 --> 01:52:27,533

[AKAZA] Who is that?

1954
01:52:52,725 --> 01:52:54,685
Mr. Hakuji,

1955
01:52:54,727 --> 01:52:56,520

1957
01:52:59,648 --> 01:53:03,776
[AKAZA] Let go.
Let go of my hand.

1958
01:53:04,236 --> 01:53:05,778
Just who are you?

1959
01:53:07,573 --> 01:53:10,867
Stop. You don't
have to keep going. [sniffles]

1960
01:53:10,909 --> 01:53:13,454
Let's leave this place together.

1961
01:53:13,828 --> 01:53:15,748
[AKAZA] I can't.

1962
01:53:15,788 --> 01:53:19,126
I've still got unfinished
business with those two.

01:53:20,502 --> 01:53:22,504
[GIRL]
What do you mean by that?

1964
01:53:23,088 --> 01:53:25,299
[AKAZA]
I've got to become stronger.

1965
01:53:25,340 --> 01:53:26,759
I've got to!

1966
01:53:27,259 --> 01:53:30,304
I'll kill anyone
who gets in my way.

1967
01:53:31,012 --> 01:53:33,724
Why do you want that? [sniffles]

1968
01:53:33,766 --> 01:53:36,809
For what reason
do you need to become stronger?

1969
01:53:38,353 --> 01:53:42,483
[AKAZA] Because...
unless I'm strong enough,

1970
01:53:42,524 --> 01:53:45,860
I won't be able to bring
any more back home to him.

1971
01:53:47,988 --> 01:53:50,282
He needs medicine.

1972
01:53:52,326 --> 01:53:55,162
I must become stronger.

[grunts angrily]

1974
01:53:57,539 --> 01:54:00,875
If I don't, I won't be able to
get away with the money I stole.

1975

If I happen to be caught,

1976
01:54:04,045 --> 01:54:06,381
I won't be able
to defend myself.

1977

If I'm not strong enough,

1978
01:54:09,593 --> 01:54:13,221
the magistrate will catch me
and have me beaten and lashed.

three tattoos on each arm
for stealing.

1982
01:54:21,062 --> 01:54:23,607

If you're gonna chop it off,
then do it!

1987
01:54:36,077 --> 01:54:38,955
Go ahead and take both of them
if you're really serious.

1988
01:54:38,997 --> 01:54:41,166
I'll just use my feet to steal.

1989
01:54:41,208 --> 01:54:44,169
You're not gonna catch me again,
so make it count!

1990
01:54:46,630 --> 01:54:50,091
[MAGISTRATE] To hear this from
someone at such a young age.

1991
01:54:50,133 --> 01:54:52,761
This boy of 11 has already
taken on punishments

1992
01:54:52,803 --> 01:54:55,222

"Demon child" suits me
just damn fine!

They say I already had teeth
when I was born,

1997

word about it made its way
back to your father.

Why do scumbags like them
get the privilege of living

01:56:26,104 --> 01:56:29,357
when my father had to die
in such a horrible way?

2025
01:56:29,399 --> 01:56:31,984
He was never a burden to me.

2026
01:56:32,026 --> 01:56:34,112
So why would he feel that way?

2027
01:56:34,571 --> 01:56:37,908
You didn't do anything wrong,
Dad. You didn't!

2028

I never cared
about getting beaten

after I was caught stealing.

2030
01:56:44,164 --> 01:56:47,960
Even if they beat me until every
bone in my body was broken,

2031
01:56:48,000 --> 01:56:50,044
I could take it all
for you, Dad.

My dad's only getting thinner

He's so malnourished,

something better to eat.

You're a criminal from Edo.

2062

I'm guessing
after being thrown out,

2063
01:58:26,934 --> 01:58:29,603
you eventually
found your way here.

2064
01:58:29,644 --> 01:58:31,646
I never asked for your opinion.

Like I said, I don't have
any other students.

2081

odd jobs I can for people.

I'd be here if I could,
but I have to work.

My wife was pushed
to the edge of exhaustion

out of you, doesn't it?

01:59:52,477 --> 01:59:55,229
my wife and daughter wouldn't
have suffered like this.

You said you knew
I was a criminal.

2091

Are you really all right leaving
your daughter around me?

Why wouldn't I be?

2093
02:00:06,825 --> 02:00:09,577
I pummeled the criminal
out of you earlier, didn't I?

2094

The reason
you disgusted me earlier.

2099

2103
02:00:44,821 --> 02:00:47,281
[AKAZA] My worthless past.

2104
02:00:50,535 --> 02:00:51,953
Worthless.

2105
02:00:56,083 --> 02:00:58,919
[coughing]

2106
02:01:01,088 --> 02:01:04,507
Hakuji, I'm so sorry.

2107
02:01:05,383 --> 02:01:07,594
[chuckles] How are you feeling?

2108
02:01:07,635 --> 02:01:09,637
[coughing]

2109
02:01:09,679 --> 02:01:11,389
You okay being up?

2110
02:01:12,390 --> 02:01:13,433
[KOYUKI] Hmm.

2111
02:01:14,101 --> 02:01:17,395
Looks like you've got more color
in your cheeks this morning.

2112
02:01:17,437 --> 02:01:19,189
[chuckles] That's good.

2113
02:01:19,856 --> 02:01:20,941
Hmm.

2114
02:01:21,524 --> 02:01:24,778
- Huh?
- Oh, yeah. This boy.

2115
02:01:24,819 --> 02:01:26,863
His name is... [chuckles]

2116
02:01:26,905 --> 02:01:30,158
Well, I've asked him countless
times, and he won't say.

2117
02:01:30,200 --> 02:01:32,326
- Go on, get inside.
- [grunts]

2118
02:01:34,037 --> 02:01:35,247
Have a seat.

2119
02:01:37,040 --> 02:01:40,043
I wanna know his name
when I get back. Okay?

2120
02:01:51,638 --> 02:01:52,889
Um...

2121
02:01:53,347 --> 02:01:56,392
Your... Your face.

2122
02:01:56,977 --> 02:01:58,394
You're hurt.

2123
02:01:58,979 --> 02:02:00,521
Are you all right?

2124
02:02:03,775 --> 02:02:05,777
[AKAZA] "I'll make you better.

2125
02:02:05,819 --> 02:02:07,612
I'll save you.

2126
02:02:07,654 --> 02:02:09,030
Protect you."

2127
02:02:09,656 --> 02:02:14,202
In that past life, all I did
was spew a bunch of lies.

2128
02:02:14,661 --> 02:02:16,370
I was so pathetic.

2129
02:02:18,248 --> 02:02:20,708
[birds chirping]

2130
02:02:25,839 --> 02:02:28,258
[coughing]

2131
02:02:32,971 --> 02:02:34,639
Oh, thank you.

2132
02:02:36,141 --> 02:02:38,893
[HAKUJI] You don't have to
thank me every time, you know.

2133
02:02:38,935 --> 02:02:40,687
Just focus on resting.

2134
02:02:42,438 --> 02:02:46,318
I'm sorry for causing you
trouble like this.

2135
02:02:46,358 --> 02:02:48,486
It's fine. Really.

2136
02:02:50,322 --> 02:02:53,116
Koyuki, you want this closed?

2137
02:02:53,908 --> 02:02:57,329
Hmm. You can leave it open.

2138
02:02:59,247 --> 02:03:02,042
[HAKUJI] Koyuki was very
delicate and frail.

2139
02:03:03,459 --> 02:03:07,297
I would change out her towels
and nightgown and give her water

2140
02:03:07,339 --> 02:03:08,965
even throughout the night.

2141
02:03:09,549 --> 02:03:12,344
And whenever she needed
to use the lavatory,

2142
02:03:12,384 --> 02:03:14,721
obviously she was too weak
to be able to go

2143
02:03:14,762 --> 02:03:16,306
without needing assistance.

2144
02:03:20,268 --> 02:03:23,521
I was used to taking care
of the sick because of my dad,

2145
02:03:23,563 --> 02:03:27,275
and since I had an almost
inhuman physical endurance,

2146
02:03:27,317 --> 02:03:29,569
it really wasn't a big deal
for me.

2147
02:03:32,113 --> 02:03:34,532
[crows cawing]

2148
02:03:34,574 --> 02:03:37,035
Sorry to make you help me
all day.

2149
02:03:43,624 --> 02:03:46,460
[HAKUJI] Why do people
who are suffering from illness

2150
02:03:46,502 --> 02:03:48,922
always feel the need to say
they're sorry?

2151
02:03:49,797 --> 02:03:52,217
"Sorry to make you
do things for me."

2152
02:03:52,759 --> 02:03:55,345
"Sorry if my coughing's
bothering you."

2153
02:03:55,970 --> 02:03:59,099
"Sorry I can't put food
on the table like I should."

2154
02:04:01,184 --> 02:04:04,062
They didn't choose
to have to live this way.

2155
02:04:04,104 --> 02:04:06,314
Of course
they wanna breathe normally.

2156
02:04:06,356 --> 02:04:08,733
They can't help it
if they start coughing.

2157
02:04:09,984 --> 02:04:11,485
Out of everyone,

2158
02:04:11,527 --> 02:04:14,030
they're the ones
suffering the most.

2159
02:04:16,783 --> 02:04:19,244
Sorry again to make you do this.

2160
02:04:19,786 --> 02:04:21,621
Because of my sickness,

2161
02:04:21,662 --> 02:04:24,165
you're not able to do
your training,

2162
02:04:24,207 --> 02:04:26,542
or even go out and have fun.

2163
02:04:27,419 --> 02:04:29,421
[HAKUJI]
I don't care about having fun.

2164
02:04:29,461 --> 02:04:30,797
I never have.

2165
02:04:31,589 --> 02:04:34,759
As far as training goes,
I squeeze it in whenever I can,

2166
02:04:34,801 --> 02:04:36,303
so, it's fine.

2167
02:04:37,595 --> 02:04:38,679
Are you sure?

2168
02:04:39,347 --> 02:04:42,392
Even you need to take
a little break.

2169
02:04:43,226 --> 02:04:46,771
I hear there are fireworks
happening tonight.

2170
02:04:46,813 --> 02:04:48,480
You should go see them.

2171
02:04:49,816 --> 02:04:51,609
Fireworks, huh?

2172
02:04:51,651 --> 02:04:54,112
If you don't feel nauseous
at night,

2173
02:04:54,154 --> 02:04:57,657
I could carry you on my back
and go see them on the bridge.

2174
02:04:57,698 --> 02:04:58,908
Huh?

2175
02:05:02,454 --> 02:05:04,538
If you're not feeling up to it,

2176
02:05:04,580 --> 02:05:07,708
they'll do fireworks again
next year, and after that.

2177
02:05:07,750 --> 02:05:09,919
So, we can just go
when you're better.

2178
02:05:14,841 --> 02:05:16,759
[crying softly]

2179
02:05:18,510 --> 02:05:21,014
There was one thing
that was hard

2180
02:05:21,055 --> 02:05:22,514
about taking care of her.

2181
02:05:22,682 --> 02:05:25,601
And that was whenever she would
suddenly break out into tears

2182
02:05:25,643 --> 02:05:27,519
in the middle
of our conversations.

2183
02:05:28,188 --> 02:05:32,233
I can imagine how she felt,
bedridden and sick as she was,

2184
02:05:32,692 --> 02:05:35,111
but it still made me
uncomfortable.

2185
02:05:35,153 --> 02:05:36,446
[insects trilling]

2186
02:05:36,488 --> 02:05:39,032
SORYU

2187
02:05:46,747 --> 02:05:48,291
[impact grunts, wheezes]

2188
02:05:49,417 --> 02:05:52,253
[sighs] Ah, now I understand.

2189
02:05:52,795 --> 02:05:54,588
The symbol used for Hakuji,

2190
02:05:54,630 --> 02:05:56,174
it's the same as komainu.

2191
02:05:56,216 --> 02:05:58,301
[chuckles] That makes sense.

2192
02:05:58,343 --> 02:06:00,512
You and I really are the same,
after all.

2193
02:06:00,552 --> 02:06:03,764
We only thrive when we have
something to protect.

2194
02:06:03,806 --> 02:06:05,225
Just like the komainu

2195
02:06:05,266 --> 02:06:07,977
who protect the entrance
to the shrines. [chuckles]

2196
02:06:08,436 --> 02:06:10,562
[laughs heartily]

2197
02:06:11,147 --> 02:06:12,606
[♪ gentle music playing]

2198
02:06:12,815 --> 02:06:15,776
[HAKUJI] There was a story as to
how my master owned this land,

2199
02:06:15,818 --> 02:06:18,988
even though he wasn't a samurai
or anything like that.

2200
02:06:19,030 --> 02:06:22,492
He had rescued an elderly man
from a group of bandits.

2201
02:06:23,076 --> 02:06:25,286
The old man,
who had no living heirs,

2202
02:06:25,328 --> 02:06:27,579
was so impressed
by his Soryu technique

2203
02:06:27,621 --> 02:06:29,623
that he left him
not only his land,

2204
02:06:29,665 --> 02:06:31,583
but the dojo that lay upon it.

2205
02:06:34,754 --> 02:06:37,882
However, there were those
with envious eyes

2206
02:06:37,924 --> 02:06:40,927
who wished to have the land
and dojo all to themselves.

2207
02:06:41,593 --> 02:06:44,055
The Kenjutsu Dojo next door

2208
02:06:44,097 --> 02:06:46,849
started harassing
the Soryu Dojo.

2209
02:06:48,600 --> 02:06:51,687
Because of that,
the Soryu Dojo had a hard time

2210
02:06:51,729 --> 02:06:53,147
keeping any students.

2211
02:07:00,572 --> 02:07:05,452
But now, thanks to my training
here and caring for Koyuki...

2212
02:07:06,702 --> 02:07:09,872
...my heart has finally
found salvation.

2213
02:07:10,915 --> 02:07:13,084
[effort grunting]

2214
02:07:23,428 --> 02:07:25,472
[chuckles]

2215
02:07:29,016 --> 02:07:32,937
Three short years went by
and I turned 18.

2216
02:07:34,063 --> 02:07:35,689
Koyuki was 16.

2217
02:07:36,149 --> 02:07:38,859
She was almost never
bedridden anymore

2218
02:07:38,901 --> 02:07:41,404
and was now able
to live a normal life.

2219
02:07:42,572 --> 02:07:44,031
[chuckles]

2220
02:07:44,616 --> 02:07:45,866
[birds chirping]

2221
02:07:45,908 --> 02:07:47,868
Hakuji! Come here.

2222
02:07:48,620 --> 02:07:49,661
Yes, sir.

2223
02:07:50,121 --> 02:07:51,581
[insects trilling]

2224
02:07:51,623 --> 02:07:52,915
This dojo,

2225
02:07:53,040 --> 02:07:56,002
would you be willing
to take it over for me, Hakuji?

2226
02:07:56,710 --> 02:08:00,047
Koyuki's told me that
she's quite fond of you as well.

2227
02:08:01,007 --> 02:08:02,300
[exclaims in surprise]

2228
02:08:09,849 --> 02:08:12,977
[HAKUJI] As someone branded
with the tattoos of a criminal,

2229
02:08:13,019 --> 02:08:16,481
picturing any kind of future
for myself was hard enough.

2230
02:08:17,815 --> 02:08:22,153
But a future in which someone
could like a person like me?

2231
02:08:22,195 --> 02:08:24,238
I couldn't have even dreamed it.

2232
02:08:26,199 --> 02:08:28,826
My dad asked me
to lead an honest life,

2233
02:08:28,868 --> 02:08:30,953
something I never thought
was possible.

2234
02:08:31,454 --> 02:08:33,705
But perhaps it really is.

2235
02:08:35,166 --> 02:08:37,835
The faint hope
of being able to start over

2236
02:08:37,877 --> 02:08:40,087
began to swell within me

2237
02:08:40,129 --> 02:08:42,923
until it felt like
it was about to burst.

2238
02:08:48,012 --> 02:08:49,472
[♪ tender music playing]

2239
02:08:49,514 --> 02:08:52,141
But I could never have predicted
in that moment

2240
02:08:52,183 --> 02:08:54,143
that the two people
I wanted to protect

2241
02:08:54,185 --> 02:08:56,521
more than anything else
in this life...

2242
02:08:57,522 --> 02:09:00,066
...would end up
meeting the fate they did.

2243
02:09:04,987 --> 02:09:08,241
I had made a trip to Edo
to visit my dad's grave.

2244
02:09:09,033 --> 02:09:12,119
I wanted to let him know
that I was getting married.

2245
02:09:21,921 --> 02:09:25,757
I returned before even a full
day and night had passed.

2246
02:09:28,678 --> 02:09:31,556
Yet a sense of dread
came over me.

2247
02:09:32,557 --> 02:09:35,017
My chest started to feel tight

2248
02:09:35,059 --> 02:09:38,187
and a terrible feeling of nausea
overtook me.

2249
02:09:38,896 --> 02:09:40,231
[retches]

2250
02:09:40,690 --> 02:09:43,192
[MAN] Someone put poison
in the well!

2251
02:09:44,026 --> 02:09:45,570
[voice breaking]
The other school was so angry

2252
02:09:45,612 --> 02:09:47,530
they couldn't beat you
or Mr. Keizo,

2253
02:09:47,572 --> 02:09:49,781
they went and did this
out of spite!

2254
02:09:49,823 --> 02:09:52,368
It's atrocious. Unthinkable!

2255
02:09:52,410 --> 02:09:54,454
They even killed Koyuki!

2256
02:09:57,873 --> 02:09:59,292
[HAKUJI] Why?

2257
02:09:59,500 --> 02:10:02,962
Why is it whenever the ones I
care about are in mortal peril,

2258
02:10:03,003 --> 02:10:05,256
I'm never there for them?

2259
02:10:10,637 --> 02:10:11,971
[fireworks bursting in distance]

2260
02:10:12,597 --> 02:10:14,098
[crickets chirping]

2261
02:10:14,140 --> 02:10:17,226
I had even gone
and made a promise to her.

2262
02:10:19,312 --> 02:10:21,939
Are you sure
that I'm the one for you?

2263
02:10:24,024 --> 02:10:25,610
When we were children,

2264
02:10:26,068 --> 02:10:28,571
do you remember
when you talked to me

2265
02:10:28,613 --> 02:10:30,573
about seeing the fireworks?

2266
02:10:31,198 --> 02:10:35,536
- Huh? Uh... no, not really.
- [giggles softly]

2267
02:10:36,788 --> 02:10:39,499
Because of those little talks
we used to have,

2268
02:10:39,540 --> 02:10:42,209
there were a lot of things
which I took with me

2269
02:10:42,251 --> 02:10:44,337
that gave me hope
for the future.

2270
02:10:45,546 --> 02:10:49,008
You said even if we couldn't see
the fireworks that year,

2271
02:10:49,049 --> 02:10:52,512
we could go to the one
happening next year,

2272
02:10:52,553 --> 02:10:54,263
or the year after that.

2273
02:10:54,972 --> 02:10:58,225
The truth is,
I could never imagine a future

2274
02:10:58,267 --> 02:11:00,645
where I'd still be alive
a year later,

2275
02:11:00,687 --> 02:11:03,481
and certainly not
any longer than that.

2276
02:11:04,649 --> 02:11:06,818
My mother couldn't either.

2277
02:11:06,858 --> 02:11:09,987
I think that's why she ended up
taking her own life,

2278
02:11:10,488 --> 02:11:12,948
'cause she didn't
want to see me die.

Not just her.

02:11:14,826 --> 02:11:17,662
I could tell my father
had given up hope, too,

2281
02:11:17,704 --> 02:11:19,455
deep down inside.

2282
02:11:20,581 --> 02:11:22,916
Because I was just so weak.

2283
02:11:24,251 --> 02:11:26,838
But you never treated me
that way.

2284
02:11:26,878 --> 02:11:29,549
You were able to see
a future for me.

2285
02:11:30,383 --> 02:11:33,885
You talked to me about
doing things as if...

2286
02:11:33,927 --> 02:11:37,014
As if it were obvious
that I'd still be here.

2287

That made me so very happy.

2288

So, yes, I am sure
you're the one for me.

2289
02:11:56,784 --> 02:11:58,160
Would you...

2290
02:11:58,703 --> 02:12:00,830

I promise to become stronger
than anyone,

The family, the Soryu Dojo,
were recently poisoned.

02:13:14,695 --> 02:13:16,988
And we believe
that a student of theirs

2311
02:13:17,030 --> 02:13:19,742
retaliated against
the Kenjutsu Dojo.

2312
02:13:19,784 --> 02:13:22,578
Sixty-seven people
were murdered inside.
