"Grandfather, what'd Kirara say?" "Are the samurai comin'?" "They're comin' back with seven of 'em in all." "S- samurai-sama, I deeply... admire ya." "There now, that's a good fellow." "But you'll have to do better than that." "Samurai-sama!" "I deeply admire you!" "Good, good!" "That's the spirit!" "You must find it disgraceful to see a samurai chopping wood with his katana, right?" "No, no, it looks much more enjoyable than chopping up people with it." "I wonder if I might have a go of it with the leader of this mountain of monkeys?" "Kirara-dono!" "Imperial Envoy!" "Being able to understand each other, and to share with each other, are both as short-lived as a bubble on the water." "Obscured by the sands of time, unable to hold on," "I gave up, until I saw you again, asking" ""How much pain have you been carrying, all alone?" "And how much loneliness is hidden behind your eyes when you smile?"" "Embrace this miracle of an encounter now," "By gazing upon each other, we can become stronger." "And if this isn't what you call love, then what is it you call love now?" "The wound is from a sharp blade, and stretches from the right shoulder across the back." "Cause of death was probably from the massive loss of blood." "Young Lord, you mustn't!" "It's very dangerous." "It sure is heavy." "Please stop." "This is an important piece of evidence." "Ukyo, you should leave." "This is no place for you to be." "Excellency..." "I cannot explain this." "It appears to be the work of someone with great skill, yet why would they leave their weapon behind?" "Is that who killed him?" "Huh?" "I'm asking you if this was able to walk around on its own, and then kill the imperial envoy!" "And who is it again that carries a katana?" "It is a samurai." "Then catch the samurai." "I'm afraid that the person responsible is still a matter of question." "To get a single grain of sand from the beach, you must dig it all up and sift it through a sieve." "See to it." "As you wish." "Those two aren't samurai, then?" "This patrol is under special order to interrogate all samurai!" "How disrespectful!" "It is an outrageous mockery for special police to interrogate a samurai!" "There's no use trying to argue about it!" "What?" "!" "Enough defiance!" "Dead or alive, you are under arrest!" "Outta my way!" "Do not resist!" "Surrender yourself!" "Now hear this!" "The imperial envoy from the capital has been killed." "There is proof that a samurai killed him." "As a result, a samurai sweep is being carried out." "The people of Kogakyo must be willing to cooperate." "Anyone with reliable information will receive a reward of ten bales of rice." "Anyone who captures a samurai will receive a reward of 100 bales of rice." "It makes no difference whether the samurai is taken dead or alive." "Oh, my..." "I see, now it all makes sense." "You know what, that reward sounds like it would fill you up a lot more than what you would get working in Kanna Village." "Sorry 'bout that." "Whoa, there's no need to apologize." "It's times like this when you just have to laugh!" "The situation just keeps going from bad to worse, doesn't it?" "Hey, it's only after the rain stops falling that the ground hardens." "Oh, what do you mean by that?" "The samurai hunt will sift the samurai out for us." "I get you." "You're absolutely right." ""Guardhouse"" "Let go of me, you!" "This is no way to treat a guest, you guys!" "Shut up!" "A new addition for you." "That hurt, you know, you bastards!" "Hey, I'm talking to you!" "Just a minute, now!" "Hey!" "Hey!" "Whatever..." "I let them capture me, you see." "Oh?" "Why would you do a strange thing like that?" "This is no time for adulation." "You are all busting out of here with me!" "Busting out?" "Yeah!" "There's something I need your help with." "I'll explain more once we're out of here." "What do you say, eh?" "If you can manage it, we couldn't ask for more." "All right!" "Okay, let's go!" "What's going on?" "!" "Let's do this!" "Let's go!" "Welcome back." "Were there any samurai?" "There weren't any samurai, but I do have a present." "Oh, thank you!" "Heihachi-sama, thank you very much." "Not at all, it was a simple task." "So... no one today, either?" "Nothing but losing tickets." "It's all because of the samurai hunt." "Samurai hunt?" "Mm-hmm." "Everyone else has either been captured by the merchants or is in hiding, so there's no one to be found." "Now then, what to do about this?" "Hey!" "Guys!" "Kikuchiyo-dono!" "What is this?" "Ta-ta-ta-ta-taan!" "Look, Kanbe!" "Samurai!" "That's the long and short of it." "What do you think?" "Oh, dear..." "What?" "Where did you bring them from?" "I broke them out of a guardhouse." "Every last one of them is a losing ticket." "Losing tickets, you say?" "!" "I won't let that pass!" "Draw!" "You're going to see for yourself whether or not we're losers!" "H- hey...!" "They're losing tickets all right." "You've gone and drawn some attention, Kiku-noji." "The samurai hunters-- they're coming." "There's no time to lose." "Quite right." "The samurai hunters are coming from above." "We'll have to hide ourselves even lower." "So what shall we do?" "Escape downward." "Does that concern you?" "All the key locations are likely covered." "Do you know of any ways we can escape?" "We might be able to use the elevator train." "Elevator train?" "A cargo train that connects the upper to the lower." "That was a long time ago, though..." "All right, it's settled, it's settled!" "That's not for you to say." "Who cares about that?" "Let's go." "Right now, there's no other way." "Be sure to stay right with us, so you don't slow anyone down." "I'm good at running races." "Geez..." "Are we really goin' to get any samurai together to protect the village this way?" "Nothing to worry about." "I'm just imitating Sister!" "Sensei, is it all right for me to come along as well?" "There's not much choice." "Then..." "Don't misunderstand." "So long as you and Kikuchiyo pretend to be samurai, you'll only bring harm to Masamune-dono by staying here." "Katsu-noji, he still doesn't recognize you as being a samurai." "I'll bring up the rear." "That will reestablish my honor from earlier." "That is indeed the act of a samurai." "You understand, don't you?" "They're coming!" "This way." "Go on, Komachi." "Right." "We've received information from numerous sources that there are samurai hiding in here." "Stay sharp!" "We're here for the samurai!" "Yow!" "Come on!" "Thanks." "Next!" "Whoops, should I have not done that?" "No, no problem." "It's tough being the new guy." "We heard that it's possible they're using the elevator train." "All right, understood." "Are we going to be all right on this broken-down heap?" "Heihachi-dono, if you would..." "Certainly." "There's nothing to worry about." "Right." "Okay, we're standing watch." "Yeah." "Here they come." "Masamune-dono!" "Hush up and get aboard!" "Or so I'd like to say." "This thing is going to give us trouble." "No, no, it will be fine." "After all, we're heading downward." "It will all work out somehow or other." "Do you want to bet on whether or not you'll make it in time?" "Shut the hell up!" "Let's go!" "Kanbe-dono!" "Well then, I should be going." "I will make sure I repay you for this someday." "W- what are you doing?" "It would be best for you if you pretended that we forced you into harboring us, right?" "I see now." "That's most gracious of y" "It has to look right, or it will be meaningless." "Is that so?" "In that case, shall I give him some bruises, too?" "Anyone but you!" "I'll make sure I hold back some." "Kiku-noji!" "You bastard, I won't forget this!" "Looks like I'll have to buy us just a little more time." "You're not going any farther than this!" "Kikuchiyo!" "I'll be right back!" "You're no challenge, you hear?" "!" "Adios!" "Serves you all right!" "Signal flare!" "We're heading down!" "Any trouble?" "Of course not!" "Kanbe-dono, may you be victorious." "Katsushiro, take Rikichi and the others to the passenger car." "Right." "I'm going to have to use your little treasure here." "I'm detaching the passenger car from the engine." "You take the hook to the passenger car." "As you wish." "It wouldn't be any fun if nobody was coming!" "And you're happy about this?" "Kikuchiyo!" "I can handle this alone just fine!" "That's kind of you, but I have another favor to ask." "Huh?" "When I give the signal, wind this up as fast as you can." "Oh." "I don't know what you're up to, but leave it to me!" "They're coming!" "Ready?" "Yeah!" "All right!" "Ready?" "Everything is in place." "Cut them loose." "Right!" "When I signal you, start the smokescreen!" "Very well!" "Do it." "Kikuchiyo!" "Gorobe!" "Kikuchiyo!" "The cable!" "Gorobe, you go on ahead!" "I can handle this fine by myself!" "You come along as soon as you're done winding up that cable, got it?" "Yeah!" "All right, come on!" "Kanbe-dono, I understand your strategy." "Katsushiro!" "Yes?" "As soon as our speed drops a little bit, we're going to jump onto the tracks!" "Right!" "You bastard, it would be faster if I wound you myself!" "This is not the time!" "Are you all ready?" "Damn it!" "Everyone, jump!" "Right!" "Now!" "Hurry!" "Kikuchiyo!" "That's enough!" "Withdraw!" "Hey, wait for me!" "Sensei!" "Whoa!" "Forget about them!" "Withdraw!" "Kikuchiyo!" "No you don't!" "Guys!" "Make sure you save those farmers!" "Let's go." "What about Kikuchiyo-dono?" "You can't mean..." "That's not like you, Sensei!" "I have trampled upon the bodies of many of my comrades before." "That's the man that I am." "Komachi!" "What about Nunky?" "!" "What about Nunky?" "!" "What about..." "Nunky...?" "!" "The old man merely gazed off into the distance from the hideaway in which he lived." "The baby cries, seeking only for the warmth of his mother." "We are born paying the price for someone's punishment, for someone's sins, but there is no such thing as a future without salvation, and the present slips quietly into the past." "We string together nothing but hollow ideas, and tell nothing but hollow lies." "And as the rain falls down upon us, something appears and then fades away." "Okara-chan, this is awful!" "We've become fugitives!" "They've starting making arrests, calling it a samurai hunt." "And so, even though we still haven't found seven men yet, we have decided to head to the village anyway." "As we did, you know what?" "As we did, Uncle Kanbe said that Nunky shielded all of us, so that we could escape." "It's not fair!" "Nunky was a nice guy, and I'm really lonely since he left us." "Kanbe, you dummy!" "He always said that whatever Nunky did was no good, but Nunky was an honest-to-goodness samurai!" "I'll never, ever, ever, ever forget Nunky!" "I'm going to sleep tonight with tears in my eyes." "Good night, and bye now..."
