Even if his opponent
was just some ghoul

but to take a life
in such a brutal fashion...

204
00:17:15,159 --> 00:17:17,578
That's nothing
short of madness.

absolutely right.

At the very root
of that act...

This is what
I've always believed.

You stake your life
on your convictions,

you can die with a smile.

00:33:26,546 --> 00:33:29,132
[sobbing]

371
00:33:46,483 --> 00:33:50,403
[♪♪♪]

372
00:34:04,584 --> 00:34:07,963
[playing shamisen]

373
00:34:08,045 --> 00:34:11,174
[singing along]

374
00:34:54,175 --> 00:34:57,012
[Ichikawa]
So that's how
Serizawa Kamo died?

375
00:34:57,094 --> 00:34:58,430
[Nagakura]
Yes.

376
00:35:01,057 --> 00:35:03,143
That's different
from the story I've heard.

377
00:35:03,226 --> 00:35:06,813
They say he was assassinated
at the Yagi estate, right?

378
00:35:10,025 --> 00:35:12,527
That was no assassination.

379
00:35:12,569 --> 00:35:16,156
It was a true, honest-to-god
battle against a demon.

380
00:35:17,657 --> 00:35:19,326
Sure, to history,

381
00:35:19,409 --> 00:35:23,246
he was the Shinsengumi's
most infamous tyrant.

382
00:35:24,372 --> 00:35:27,542
But the man I knew
never showed a hint

383
00:35:27,626 --> 00:35:31,171
of that grim cruelty
in Serizawa Kamo.

384
00:35:32,464 --> 00:35:38,595
But that battle...
it changed Toshi.

385
00:35:38,678 --> 00:35:39,846
What?

386
00:35:48,605 --> 00:35:52,525
MARCH 1864

387
00:36:42,951 --> 00:36:47,956
[narrator]
Six months after the death
of Head Commander Serizawa Kamo

388
00:36:48,039 --> 00:36:50,959
the Shinsengumi was reorganized

389
00:36:51,000 --> 00:36:54,003
under the command
of Kondo Isami.

390
00:36:54,087 --> 00:36:56,214
[Yamanami] There it is.
[recruit] Yes.

391
00:36:56,297 --> 00:36:59,300
Here you go. Next!

392
00:37:00,677 --> 00:37:04,347
[Nagakura]
Wow... quite a crowd
we've got here.

393
00:37:04,431 --> 00:37:06,057
[Shimada]
You can say that again.

394
00:37:06,141 --> 00:37:07,308
Damn it,
you bastard...

395
00:37:07,350 --> 00:37:09,644
They seem
capable enough, but...

396
00:37:09,728 --> 00:37:12,814
they all look
like a real piece of work.

397
00:37:12,856 --> 00:37:15,567
Yes, sir. They're all
hand-picked for their skill.

398
00:37:15,650 --> 00:37:18,403
[Nagakura]
By the Vice-Commander's orders

399
00:37:18,486 --> 00:37:20,989
all that matters here
is sword skill.

400
00:37:21,072 --> 00:37:22,323
You want a fight, damn it?

401
00:37:22,365 --> 00:37:24,325
[Nagakura]
Let's just hope we can keep

402
00:37:24,367 --> 00:37:26,494
this motley crew under control.

403
00:37:26,536 --> 00:37:28,163
[narrator]
Around this time,

404
00:37:28,246 --> 00:37:31,666
over 100 new members
joined the corps.

405
00:37:31,750 --> 00:37:34,419
They were organized
into ten squads,

406
00:37:34,502 --> 00:37:36,671
from the First to the Tenth.

407
00:37:38,047 --> 00:37:40,508
[fierce yelling]

408
00:37:43,762 --> 00:37:46,181
Hey, hey, hey!

409
00:37:46,222 --> 00:37:48,224
What are you doing?

410
00:37:48,308 --> 00:37:50,226
That's not the spot.

411
00:37:50,310 --> 00:37:54,397
To really hurt your opponent...

412
00:37:54,481 --> 00:37:58,485
you hit 'em here!
Here. Here. Here!

413
00:37:59,360 --> 00:38:00,528
[all] Oh...

414
00:38:00,570 --> 00:38:03,364
See? You can't even
figure that out?

415
00:38:03,448 --> 00:38:06,201
As expected of the Captain!
Absolutely ruthless.

416
00:38:06,242 --> 00:38:08,161
Do it.
Yes, sir!

417
00:38:08,244 --> 00:38:09,996
The family jewels!
Go for the jewels!

418
00:38:10,079 --> 00:38:11,498
Yes, sir!

419
00:38:12,624 --> 00:38:14,793
[Saito]
Come on, put more into it!

420
00:38:14,876 --> 00:38:16,586
[laughs]

421
00:38:17,545 --> 00:38:19,172
Come on, strike it, strike it!

422
00:38:19,255 --> 00:38:21,549
THIRD CORPS CAPTAIN SAITO HAJIME

423
00:38:21,633 --> 00:38:25,428
[leader] 82!
[all] 82!

424
00:38:25,512 --> 00:38:28,723
[leader] 83!
[all] 83!

425
00:38:28,765 --> 00:38:32,310
[Nagakura]
Listen up! Don't you forget it!

426
00:38:32,393 --> 00:38:35,104
No talent is greater
than raw strength and hard work.

427
00:38:35,188 --> 00:38:37,398
Relentless training
will overcome

428
00:38:37,440 --> 00:38:40,026
any and all natural talent!

429
00:38:40,109 --> 00:38:42,237
[all] Yes, sir!
Alright! Let's go!

430
00:38:42,320 --> 00:38:43,571
Yeah!

431
00:38:43,655 --> 00:38:45,114
SECOND CORPS CAPTAIN,
NAGAKURA SHINPACHI

432
00:38:45,198 --> 00:38:47,367
84!
[all] 84!

433
00:38:47,450 --> 00:38:49,577
[indistinct shouting]

434
00:38:49,619 --> 00:38:52,539
[Todo]
Hey! Put your backs into it!

435
00:38:52,622 --> 00:38:56,042
The key to close-quarters combat
is a hard head.

436
00:38:56,084 --> 00:38:59,921
No matter who you're up against,
lock blades with them

437
00:38:59,963 --> 00:39:02,757
and smash their damn head open!

438
00:39:05,468 --> 00:39:06,719
Get fired up! Get fired up!

439
00:39:06,803 --> 00:39:09,472
EIGHTH CORPS CAPTAIN,
TODO HEISUKE

440
00:39:10,849 --> 00:39:12,392
Hey, hey!

441
00:39:12,475 --> 00:39:14,602
Haven't we been
marching forever? Whoa!

442
00:39:14,644 --> 00:39:16,813
Well, I can't say anything.

443
00:39:16,896 --> 00:39:20,108
This silent pressure
is too scary. Whoa!

444
00:39:20,149 --> 00:39:22,360
[whimpering]

445
00:39:23,236 --> 00:39:24,696
What? What is it?

446
00:39:27,615 --> 00:39:31,494
SIXTH CORPS CAPTAIN,
INOUE GENZABURO

447
00:39:38,459 --> 00:39:41,713
How come we always get stuck
on meal duty?

448
00:39:43,673 --> 00:39:47,010
"Laugh at food now, you'll
regret it," or so they say.

449
00:39:55,518 --> 00:39:59,147
TENTH CORPS CAPTAIN,
HARADA SANOSUKE

450
00:39:59,230 --> 00:40:01,441
[indistinct chatter]

451
00:40:01,524 --> 00:40:03,776
[exclaiming]

452
00:40:05,737 --> 00:40:09,741
The first corps is full
of a bunch of ugly mugs.

453
00:40:13,536 --> 00:40:14,704
FIRST CORPS CAPTAIN, OKITA SOJI

454
00:40:14,787 --> 00:40:16,998
[Nagakura] Hey, Soji.
Good morning.

455
00:40:17,040 --> 00:40:19,000
[men exclaiming]

456
00:40:20,543 --> 00:40:22,378
Good morning, everyone.

457
00:40:22,462 --> 00:40:25,340
Good morning!
Good morning!

458
00:40:25,381 --> 00:40:26,674
How are you today?

459
00:40:26,716 --> 00:40:28,343
Let me give you a massage!

460
00:40:28,384 --> 00:40:30,929
Someone! Bring some tea!
Hey, hey, hey, hey.

461
00:40:31,012 --> 00:40:33,848
Oh, sorry.

462
00:40:33,890 --> 00:40:35,516
Huh?

463
00:40:35,558 --> 00:40:37,602
[Shimada]
I heard they choked out Okita
on day one,

464
00:40:37,685 --> 00:40:40,104
and were all taken out
in a split second.

465
00:40:40,188 --> 00:40:42,857
[Todo]
Ouch. Sucks to be them.

466
00:40:44,484 --> 00:40:47,320
What'd you just say,
you son of a bitch?

467
00:40:47,403 --> 00:40:48,738
I'm only gonna say this once!

468
00:40:48,821 --> 00:40:51,616
Our Captain Harada
is the strongest, you hear me?

469
00:40:51,699 --> 00:40:54,369
As if that bottomless pit
can beat Captain Saito!

470
00:40:54,410 --> 00:40:56,329
Are you really that stupid?
Hey, say that again!

471
00:40:56,371 --> 00:40:57,622
The tenth corps is the
strongest! Bring it on!

472
00:40:57,705 --> 00:40:58,706
Fighting over
such pointless crap.

473
00:40:58,790 --> 00:40:59,916
The third corps
is the strongest!

474
00:40:59,999 --> 00:41:01,209
Bring it on!

475
00:41:01,292 --> 00:41:02,585
Hey. Shouldn't we
break this up soon?

476
00:41:02,669 --> 00:41:04,671
Kai.
I dare you! Let's settle this!

477
00:41:04,754 --> 00:41:06,172
Yeah, you piece of shit!
Let's settle it!

478
00:41:06,214 --> 00:41:09,133
Hey! Vice-Commander is coming!
It's the Vice-Commander!

479
00:41:17,767 --> 00:41:19,769
You're fired up, huh?

480
00:41:24,941 --> 00:41:26,109
Keep it up.

481
00:41:40,790 --> 00:41:43,126
[Okita]
He'd have knocked sense
into them,

482
00:41:43,209 --> 00:41:44,961
yelling that he's the strongest.

483
00:41:46,587 --> 00:41:47,797
[Nagakura]
Yes...

484
00:41:51,342 --> 00:41:54,804
What's gotten
into you, Toshi?

485
00:41:57,974 --> 00:41:59,642
[sighs]

486
00:42:04,647 --> 00:42:06,816
[Harada]
Yes... This is good.

487
00:42:08,735 --> 00:42:10,486
Then I'm taking this one too!

488
00:42:10,570 --> 00:42:14,073
Hajime! Heisuke,
you two calm down!

489
00:42:16,868 --> 00:42:19,162
[Kondo]
Man, it's been a while

490
00:42:21,330 --> 00:42:23,291
since it's been just us.

491
00:42:26,878 --> 00:42:30,131
It's great that
we've got more men, but...

492
00:42:30,173 --> 00:42:32,967
I'm drowning in useless rookies
and it's a real headache.

493
00:42:33,009 --> 00:42:34,010
Really?
Yeah.

494
00:42:34,093 --> 00:42:36,637
The men in my unit
are all reliable.

495
00:42:36,679 --> 00:42:37,805
You can't be serious.

496
00:42:37,889 --> 00:42:39,682
[Okita]
We've got a former yakuza boss,

497
00:42:39,766 --> 00:42:41,601
a guy who used to be a pirate...

498
00:42:41,684 --> 00:42:43,144
And a guy called "the Cannibal."

499
00:42:43,227 --> 00:42:44,979
[Todo]
"The Cannibal"?
What's that about?

500
00:42:45,021 --> 00:42:46,773
[Okita] Who knows.
[Todo laughs]

501
00:42:46,856 --> 00:42:49,358
That's enough
about the new recruits.

502
00:42:50,401 --> 00:42:52,904
So, Yamanami.

503
00:42:54,572 --> 00:42:58,034
You gathered us all
for a reason, right?

504
00:42:58,117 --> 00:42:59,202
Yes...

505
00:43:02,997 --> 00:43:04,123
[sighs]

506
00:43:08,211 --> 00:43:09,378
The Choshu clan...

507
00:43:10,588 --> 00:43:12,632
are making their move again.

508
00:43:13,508 --> 00:43:14,675
[Todo]
The Choshu...

509
00:43:14,759 --> 00:43:16,677
Is it Kusaka Genzui?

510
00:43:17,512 --> 00:43:19,305
Yes.

511
00:43:19,388 --> 00:43:21,182
According to Yamazaki,

512
00:43:21,224 --> 00:43:24,811
it's not just Kusaka
pulling the Choshu's strings.

513
00:43:24,894 --> 00:43:27,230
He says there's someone else
involved as well.

514
00:43:28,189 --> 00:43:31,025
Someone else? Who is it?

515
00:43:31,109 --> 00:43:32,735
[sighs]

516
00:43:34,904 --> 00:43:37,865
Hijikata, I wasn't
finished speaking.

517
00:43:37,949 --> 00:43:41,035
I'm going on patrol
to sober up.

518
00:43:41,119 --> 00:43:42,829
Carry on without me.

519
00:43:44,122 --> 00:43:45,832
Hijikata!

520
00:43:45,873 --> 00:43:47,125
[sighs]

521
00:43:48,042 --> 00:43:50,878
What on earth is he thinking?

522
00:43:52,213 --> 00:43:56,008
When is he going to start
acting like a Vice-Commander?

523
00:43:58,427 --> 00:44:01,055
Come on,
don't be so hard on him.

524
00:44:01,139 --> 00:44:04,016
It's because you're always
too easy on him, Commander.

525
00:44:05,685 --> 00:44:08,271
Toshi's got
his own burdens to bear.

526
00:44:08,354 --> 00:44:12,191
Ever since Serizawa's death,
he's been searching constantly.

527
00:44:14,110 --> 00:44:15,361
As a samurai...

528
00:44:16,946 --> 00:44:20,241
for an opponent
worthy of risking his life.

529
00:44:23,161 --> 00:44:26,414
[♪♪♪]

530
00:44:31,294 --> 00:44:33,087
[Sagawa]
With Commander Kondo
at its center,

531
00:44:33,171 --> 00:44:35,423
the Shinsengumi
grows more united each day.

532
00:44:35,464 --> 00:44:36,716
At present,
there are no signs

533
00:44:36,799 --> 00:44:38,467
of unrest
from any dissident factions.

534
00:44:38,551 --> 00:44:40,636
However, there are rumors
that the Choshu

535
00:44:40,720 --> 00:44:42,388
are stirring up
trouble again.

536
00:44:42,471 --> 00:44:43,890
And Satsuma too.

537
00:44:43,973 --> 00:44:46,017
[Matsudaira] Kanbei.
My lord.

538
00:44:48,019 --> 00:44:52,398
This country is only going
to fall deeper into chaos.

539
00:44:54,150 --> 00:44:55,318
But...

540
00:44:56,944 --> 00:44:59,530
no matter what happens,

541
00:44:59,614 --> 00:45:02,158
we will fight
until the last man stands.

542
00:45:03,868 --> 00:45:05,369
That's all there is to it.

543
00:45:07,246 --> 00:45:08,331

He's a key figure
in the Choshu clan,

583

right up there
with Kusaka Genzui.

584

If we take him down,
it's a huge score.

All right.
