"Her again..." "That's weird." "She's wearing a kimono, like a princess." "You're totally not the 'princess' type." "Why not?" "Don't ignore us." "You ratted on us, didn't you?" "You deserved it." "Shut up, you dog!" "Stop it!" "Teacher!" "Fooled you, huh?" "You're the fool, Kawakami." "You idiot." "Get out of here." "He's running away!" "Weakling!" "Loser." "Give me courage." "Give me courage." "Give me courage." "Give me courage." "Give me courage." "You're not listening to me." "Why give up your photography to help your friend with his company?" "But he asked me to help him." "But why do you have to quit your job?" "Who said I was going to quit?" "You did." "I didn't." "I said I'm taking a break from photography to focus on his business." "That means you're quitting." "Did I even mention the word "quit"?" "Shinichi, did I?" "Leave Shinichi out of it!" "If you're unsure about your role in this family, what I need from a husband is..." "It's her again..." "Off to school?" "Dad, are you sick of photography?" "Did you know this tree is called "The Great Oak of Kawakami"?" "That's our name." "Cool, huh?" "Answer my question." "Kids don't need to worry about stuff like that." "Why not?" "What is this?" "What is this?" "What's going on?" "A festival?" "Awesome..." "Ijiri, you demon!" "Don't move." "Um..." "Who's there?" "Damn!" "The Iwatsuki clan!" "After them!" "From another time?" "He speaks of strange things." "That explains his queer dress." "If what he says is true," "I owe him my life." "Matabei, do you believe him?" "Could he be a spy of Iwatsuki?" "Hmm..." "Or..." "Okurai?" "Please..." "Untie these ropes." "If you value your life, provide some proof!" "Here." "How strange!" "Are you a goblin's child?" "No, I'm a human child!" "I swear!" "What's all this noise about?" "Princess Ren!" "The lady in my dream." "Dream?" "Did you just say "dream"?" "You saw me in a dream?" "Answer her truthfully." "Yes, I did..." "I saw you by a lake." "A lake?" "You were praying by a lake..." "The dream brought me here." "So you came to grant my wish?" "Interesting." "Stay here for awhile." "Jiromaru, look after this child." "I beg you to reconsider." "And..." "Please don't call me Jiromaru." "That's my childhood name." "My samurai name is Matabei Ijiri..." "Are you denying my request," "Jiromaru?" "Why me?" "Bunshiro, you watch the kid." "Your mom will know what to do." "The princess asked you to do it." "You have to own up to it." "Come on, ask Osato for me." "I must decline." "The Princess is a headache, too." "She relies on me for everything." "She feels close to you." "Fool!" "It's because we grew up together." "That's all." "When my father served the Lord," "I was often tasked with entertaining her." "I see." "Actually I was at her beck and call." "That's different from "feeling close"." "I am only her servant, nothing more." "But she really is beautiful." "Many generals have asked for..." "Her hand, but she's declined them all..." "She's such a willful princess." "So she's "hot"." ""Hot"?" "A lot of people like her." "Many people like her..." "You're right." "She is very well loved in Kasuga." "Here we are." "Your house is in the castle?" "Good thing your commute is short." "Commute?" "No packed trains..." "Father, mother." "Bunshiro," "Young Master." "Welcome home." "I'm taking care of him for awhile." "He's not at school either?" "What should we do?" "He's never cut school before." "I found this at the Great Oak of Kawakami." "What's this?" ""Dad, Mom, Don't be shocked."" ""I'm writing you from the Tensho era."" ""I'm guessing it would be hard for you to come get me."" ""But don't worry too much," "I'm doing fine." "From Shinichi."" "What does he mean "Tensho era"?" "Feudal Japan - " "When Nobunaga Oda began his rule." "Nobunaga?" "What's that mean?" "I have no idea why he wrote this crazy letter." "But this is pretty old parchment." "It's not anything from this era." "This may sound strange, but what if this really was from the feudal age?" "What?" "!" "What if something happened and he really is in feudal Japan?" "That's crazy." "But how?" "Well..." "I don't know, but..." "It's an elaborate joke." "You know how he gets into these things." "What motivation would he have to do this?" "Your room's kind of sparse." "I'm the only one living here." "What about your family?" "All dead." "My mother from illness." "My father and brothers in battle." "I see..." "Is there a Mrs.?" "Mrs.?" "A wife." "Listen Shinichi!" "I'm a samurai!" "With a wife or child, I would have something to lose." "Then I wouldn't be very effective in battle, right?" "Such noble words." "This man is feared on the battlefield as Demon Ijiri but he's a pushover when it comes to women." "Impertinence!" "Then hurry up and take a bride!" "What a shame if the Ijiri name ended with you." "If your father were alive, he would say the same thing." "What are you talking about!" "Who do you think you are?" "What a nuisance!" "I guess women are strong in any era." "Are they like this in yours, too?" "They've lost two sons to war." "Bunshiro is the only child left." "What about your parents?" "Are they over there?" "In what you call the future?" "They must be worried." "I left without a word..." "I have a good idea, Shinichi." "What if you write them a letter?" "A letter?" "This is that letter." "We'll wrap it in oil paper and encase it." "If we seal it with wax, it should last until the future." "I know a good place to bury this." "Under the Great Oak of Kawakami." "Great Oak of Kawakami?" "There's no tree by that name?" "I don't know of it." "There's a stone Buddha..." "Stone Buddha?" "You mean by the Secret Abyss?" "Secret Abyss?" "It's near a lake surrounded by a forest." "Can you take me there tomorrow?" "It may help me get back." "Fine." "We'll leave first thing tomorrow." "Thank you." "Don't worry, Shinichi." "I promise I'll find you a way back home." "What are you worried about?" "From where you came, you'll return." "Is it that simple?" "Most things are." "See?" "Your stomach agrees with me." "Osato!" "The boy's hungry." "Is dinner ready?" "Yes!" "Interaction of people of various backgrounds throughout history gave birth to different cultures." "These cultures..." "Wake up, Kawakami!" "It was a dream." "Shinichi!" "You were moaning in your sleep." "Really?" "How embarrassing!" "What were you dreaming about?" "It's kind of funny, actually." "I slipped back in time to feudal Japan and was caught up in a battle..." "I don't know why I dreamt that." "I know why." "Because you're always running away." "I am here to get you." "Hurry!" "Everything must be perfect!" "Lord Okurai is paying a surprise visit!" "We're going to greet him." "Come!" "Right away!" "Bunshiro, I have to greet Lord Okurai." "I'm entrusting you to take Shinichi to the Secret Abyss." "What?" "!" "What are you doing Misako?" "I really think Shinichi is in the Tensho era." "Look at this." ""The sudden appearance of Shinichi Kawakami and his clan..."" ""helped Kasuga turn the tides of battle in the Tensho era."" ""In honor of this achievement, Kasuga named this oak tree..."" ""the Great Oak of Kawakami..."" "What do you think?" "About what?" "Shinichi Kawakami and his clan?" "Shinichi did something heroic there, and "his clan" means us." "We're going, too." "To the Tensho era." "It's already written in history." "Are you feeling OK?" "I can't believe it either!" "But this article is irrefutable." "The name must be a coincidence." "I thought so too, at first." "But his letter is from the same era." "It's more than a coincidence." "But it's feudal Japan." "How are we supposed to get there?" "Japan was in turmoil then." "Everyone was killing each other." "Yes, and our child is there now!" "We have to save him." "Shinichi's waiting for us!" "You're right..." "You're right!" "Shinichi, let's go." "You, there." "What are you wearing?" "This youngster is an entertainer, sir." "This strange dress is actually his costume." "I see." "What talents do you have?" "Show me." "Nothing worthy of your interest, sir." "It would be a waste of time..." "Never mind." "I'm interested." "Show me!" "Very well, sir." "He'll demonstrate his agility on this two-wheeled contraption." "As it only has two wheels, it cannot stand on its own." "But with his magical powers..." "Ride it!" "He's quite talented." "Come to my castle next time." "You'd be most welcome." "Who is that man?" "I almost peed in my pants!" "Lord Takatora Okurai." "The most powerful man in these parts." "That's obvious." "He could make your heart stop with one glare." "He has a terrible temper and can be quite cruel, too." "He would have cut you down in an instant." "You're lucky, he was in good spirits today." "Thanks to your quick wit, Bunshiro." "You were great!" "I was just trying to help Matabei, that's all." "I knew you were a good person, Bunshiro." "Be quiet!" "Don't be so modest, Bunshiro!" "Cut it out!" "I wish I could give you a gift, really." "Want to ride?" "I wouldn't be caught dead on such a contraption." "Why not, Bun-chan?" "Bun-chan?" "You want to marry Ren?" "Surely, you have no objection?" "It's just so sudden and unexpected." "The hunt was merely an excuse." "I wanted to see for myself if all the rumors were true." "And Princess Ren is indeed a beauty." "I've decided." "Any objections?" "What is your name?" "Matabei Ijiri, sir." "So you're the famous Demon Ijiri?" "What do you think of our engagement?" "Your name is famous in this land, Lord Okurai." "I think it's a match made in heaven." "So Demon Ijiri approves." "I'll notify you of the wedding date." "Be prepared." "Bring the horses!" "Congratulations on your engagement, sir." "Don't flatter me!" "But you are devious, sir." "You acted like you never met the Princess before." "Did you forget about that time?" "Be quiet." "I've got this one." "Stop!" "This is outrageous!" "Do you know who I am?" "Who cares?" "This is a sanctuary for wildlife." "There will be no killing here!" "Be quiet!" "Or I'll shoot you instead!" "Shoot, if you dare." "Girl!" "What is your name?" "A brute like you has no need to know!" "She is Princess Ren, daughter of Lord Yasutsuna." "That girl tried to defy me." "How dare she?" "Despicable!" "What kind of samurai is he?" "Has he no propriety?" "What do you think of this?" "You can be truthful." "It's up to you, father." "I will do as you please." "Princess Ren is a bit bashful." "But if she marries into the Okurai family" "Kasuga will be well off." "It's not a bad proposition." "With this political alignment, our defense will be rock-solid." "Princess!" "Princess Ren!" "Princess!" "Please wait!" "Come back!" "Stop!" "Bun-chan, brake!" "Brake!" "What the hell is that?" "What are you doing?" "Thanks." "This is it." "This is where Princess Ren was praying." "Are you sure?" "Absolutely." "Strange things do happen." "Princess Ren praying..." "And you dreaming of it from a different time..." "And me ending up here." "Like I was called here." "Princess Ren..." "Is she crying?" "Oh no!" "We're outnumbered!" "But!" "Who are you?" "Hand over your valuables." "I have none!" "But you're wearing a fine silk kimono." "That will do." "Should we strip you?" "Stop it!" "Stupid, Bunshiro!" "Who are these little urchins?" "What are you wearing?" "Look at this one with the sword." "It looks valuable." "Catch him!" "Drawing your sword?" "That means you're ready to fight to the death, kid?" "What the hell is that?" "Princess!" "Fools!" "Do you know who that is?" "You bastards!" "Don't kill him!" "I'm unharmed." "Calm down." "Demon Ijiri?" "Um?" "Demon Ijiri of Kasuga?" "None other." "Pull out!" "I don't like being spared out of pity." "You're lucky." "You have a kingdom to protect." "Wait." "This isn't much, but take it." "What's this?" "You must have been loyal to someone once." "You wanted to remain a samurai." "Take the money and start over." "Are you hurt?" "I was useless." "I..." "I..." "Never mind." "It will come with experience." "Princess!" "You must not endanger yourself by wandering off alone." "Please be more prudent." "You're "hot"." ""Hot"?" "That means that everyone thinks very highly of you." "How did you know I was here?" "I saw you leave the castle in an agitated state." "I rushed over thinking you might be here." "You always liked it here." "I remember we've come many times." "Do you still come often?" "Yes." "I come to pray for your safety in battle." "You're joking!" "Don't joke like that." "Jiromaru!" "You're bleeding!" "You're hurt!" "Probably cut by a reed." "Here." "You're overreacting!" "I'll just put some spit on it." "You've always hurt yourself protecting me." "Lord Takatora will protect you now." "Don't worry." "Lord Takatora is a fine samurai." "I'm not worried." "How do you really feel?" "Do you truly wish me to be married to Lord Takatora?" "My only wish is..." "For the safety of our kingdom." "I see..." "I understand." "I'm going back to the castle." "Matabei, are you sure?" "It's not that simple." "What happens if we sit here?" "I don't know." "But if Shinichi disappeared here, maybe we will, too." "Shinichi Kawakami and his clan..." "Yes, his clan." "How do we get there?" "This is it!" "Wow!" "it's so new." "Huh?" "There's a huge tree here in the future." "What kind of tree?" "An Oak?" "Or..." "This had fallen off the tree." "How big was the tree?" "Around this big?" "Okay." "If we bury this here, it should grow into a huge oak tree by then." "Just bury the letter here." "I wonder if it will work?" "So a huge tree is growing here in your time." "It's kind of strange." "To think that the tree hasn't even sprouted yet." "I hope your parents get the letter." "Yeah." "If they do, they'll come for you." "That was fast!" "Dad!" "Mom!" "Shinichi!" "How did you get here?" "Do you realize how worried we were?" "Shinichi." "Who would this be?" "Bun-chan." "I am a friend of Shinichi's." "Shinichi's friend?" "Nice to meet you." "My mom and dad." "So your wish came true and they came for you?" "Thank you for taking care of Shinichi." "What?" "Thank you very much." "See you, then." "Back... go back..." "We're not going back?" "Princess... are you angry?" "Who, me?" "You're angry." "I'm not angry!" "Matabei!" "Princess Ren!" "So this is the "automobile" you were speaking of?" "Would you like to go for a ride?" "Can I?" "Of course!" "Get in." "You can keep your shoes on." "I see." "Nice!" "Get in, Matabei." "I have my horse." "Bun-chan?" "No way!" "I'm following Lord Matabei." "Never mind." "Get in." "Okay." "See you later." "Master!" "You, again!" "No, listen!" "Make us your servants!" "We sent the others back home but we want to be retained by you." "You spared our lives." "We want to pledge it to you." "We beg of you!" "Let us serve you." "Please!" "I'll let my father know." "Dad, go faster!" "Who are you!" "Never mind." "Let them pass." "Princess Ren!" "?" "With people inside!" "It's the princess!" "Lord Matabei!" "Hardly anything is salvaged from this era in modern Japan." "As far as I know, Kasuga doesn't even exist in Japan's history." "What about Okurai?" "What of them?" "Okurai?" "There's no such place." "It's so futile." "We fight endless battles to protect our kingdoms" "but we're all destined to oblivion." "Did you call?" "Ren, I've decided." "Yes." "Your engagement to Takatora is off!" "Alignment or not, this kingdom will perish according to Shinichi's father." "No more political alignments." "We must live as we choose." "But..." "It's not just about you." "You heard what happened to Koshitani?" "They surrendered to Takatora to avoid further bloodshed but he imposed impossible demands and in the end, they were all executed." "If that be our fate, it's time showed some backbone." "Will it be all right?" "Will we have to go to war?" "That' s not for you to worry about, my dear." "I've lost my wife and my sons." "I want you with me for awhile." "Yes, father." "Osato, what is this strange food called?" "What was it?" "It's called curry." "Curry!" "Curry!" "Curry." "I like ii." "This "beer" isn't bad, either." "This is the best libation I've tasted in my 25 years." "25?" "You're way younger than me?" "Men of this age seem so mature..." "and dignified." "You mean he looks old." "He isn't even married yet." "Poor guy." "Mind your own business!" "That's a good one!" "Tonight is a fine night." "What are you doing?" "Filming you in high spirits." "Why is Matabei in such good spirits?" "One." "Princess Ren's engagement is off." "Two." "Princess Ren's engagement is..." "You're not going to show that to the Princess?" "You idiot!" "Wait, Shinichi!" "He's a nimble little urchin!" "Help!" "Help!" "I got him!" "So he sacrificed his kingdom for his beloved daughter." "Yasutsuna..." "And Princess Ren chose Matabei." "You mean to tell me she chose a petty samurai over me?" "To war!" "We'll give those country bumpkins a taste of real battle." "Are you alright?" "Okurai's army is heading this way." "They're attacking after all." "You should leave the castle now!" "Wait, Princess." "Our neighbors may be joining forces with Okurai." "It's dangerous." "They'll stand out." "But if war breaks out" "their car will surely draw attention." "Akira, let's hide it tonight." "If we go to battle, you find the right time to go." "Yes..." "You two come with me." "We have work to do." "Yes, sir!" "Is a war going to start?" "Yes." "There's quite a few women and children." "When we're in danger, we all evacuate here." "But it's strange." "What?" "Your parents are from totally opposite ends of Japan." "Is there no class distinction in marital affairs of your time?" "Well there are always issues..." "But as long as you love each other." "I see..." "It seems like a good place." "You married for love, right?" "Yes, I guess." "Princess!" "That's why the two of you seem so close." "Do we really?" "Yes, very." "That's why I'm certain you'll be fine." "Misfortune isn't in your cards." "Thank you." "That was something!" "I got to ride a horse." "What's so funny?" "It's cold." "Bunshiro, how about a sip?" "Really, sir?" "Lord Matabei!" "How is it?" "They have around 5,000." "We're slightly outnumbered." "We don't stand a chance!" "Listen, Bunshiro, a castle isn't easy to bring down." "They say you need ten times the usual men." "We have roughly 500." "If they have 5,000, we should be even." "They won't take this castle." "Does the 500 include women and children?" "Everyone counts in battle." "Anyways, I have a plan." "A plan?" "The first 800 will be led by Harumasa and attack Kasuga Castle followed by 1,200 led by Hidenaga." "Nobuyoshi will take the right and Tadamichi..." "Bad news, sir!" "Enemy torches on the hill!" "An ambush?" "Shall we send some men?" "No." "It's obviously a ploy." "They're planning an ambush." "We won't fall into the trap." "We'll hold our ground until they can't wait any longer." "Blow out the fires and move our troops to the left." "Keep your armor on and pretend to sleep." "Let's go!" "Matabei, I can read you like a book." "They fell for it." "What is that?" "I borrowed it from Akira. it's amazing." "What did you do?" "Some traps are especially effective for seasoned warriors like Takatora." "They won't be sleeping well tonight." "And you can't fight without sleep." "So, no night attack after all." "Matabei..." "I fell for his trick." "Chief Hayato defected last night." "Chief Hayato?" "Really?" "What's wrong?" "Morale seems low." "Where's your spirit?" "We have Demon Ijiri on our side!" "We won't go down so easily!" "Even if he is a pushover for women." "Such nonsense!" "It's kind of like a festival." "I wish it were." "We have to repay them for last night." "Send in the front line!" "Blow the conch shell!" "The conch shell!" "Blow the conch shell!" "Get ready!" "Hold fire until instructed!" "Gunmen, forward!" "Ready!" "Fire!" "Steady!" "They're baiting us!" "Forward!" "Charge!" "Get ready!" "Kichibei, draw them way in." "Ready!" "Aim!" "Fire!" "Bows and arrows!" "Gunmen, forward!" "Aim accurately!" "Fire!" "Stones!" "Release!" "Hold steady!" "Ready!" "Fire!" "Laddermen, proceed!" "Gunmen, fire!" "Fire!" "Arrows!" "Get the general's head!" "Niemon!" "Got it!" "No one gets in!" "Master Kawakami, it's dangerous." "Please go inside." "Shinichi!" "Let's go!" "But, Matabei!" "There's nothing we can do!" "I'll be back." "Shinichi!" "I'll go!" "Stop!" "Shinichi!" "This is a real war!" "People are killing each other!" "Shinichi!" "No one gets in!" "Idiot!" "We'd only get in the way!" "Clay bombs!" "Gonbei Sakuma is here!" "Out of the way, small fish!" "Who's here to fight me?" "I am!" "There's nothing to fear!" "They're exhausted!" "Stay calm!" "Give me a bow!" "Don't let up!" "What's happening?" "Shinichi." "There's so many of them..." "But Matabei is safe." "Good..." "Good." "I shouldn't have said anything." "Someone!" "I need your help!" "Please help!" "The soldiers are exhausted." "Make them extra salty." "This one's huge!" "And salty!" "So Kasuga's not a pushover." "Should we send in the rest of the men?" "No, let's bide our time." "Let them fight a honorable battle, then offer a truce." "But why?" "They made fools of us!" "What if they're cornered and Princess Ren takes her life?" "Once they let us in, Kasuga will be mine." "You remember Koshitani?" "Ah, yes." "The conch shell!" "It's over!" "They've blown the conch." "Get out of here!" "Retreat!" "We held our ground!" "Hang in there." "It got quiet." "I guess it's over for today." "We held a conference." "We'll attack at dawn with the remaining men." "That's crazy." "Death isn't the only honorable way for a samurai." "Don't be so pessimistic." "We aren't dead yet." "This is all according to plan." "Look at this." "This is our castle and this is the enemy line." "The enemy is divided camping here and there." "In the dim light of dawn we'll descend from behind." "We'll go around the hill and attack with full force at daybreak." "The enemy hasn't slept since last night." "Most of them will be sound asleep at that hour." "But..." "This is our back yard." "We'll use it to our advantage and take his head." "But even if you get Takaiora, you'll be surrounded." "They'll kill you." "Shinichi, there are rules in battle." "Once you take the general's head, it's over." "So we need to do whatever it takes to get to Lord Takatora." "I see." "And Akira, you three leave with us and escape in the car in the confusion." "But..." "It's fast enough to outrun them." "Are you sure?" "Of course." "You have nothing to do with this war." "But..." "Matabei, isn't there anything we can do?" "Kids don't need to worry." "Get some sleep." "Princess, I'm returning to my men." "Are you sure?" "You may never see him again." "Matabei!" "Princess!" "I'll be praying for your safety." "Matabei, are you sure?" "You may die tomorrow." "You won't have any regrets?" "Shinichi." "To protect something you love with your life - - that's the way of the warrior." "So you see, as a samurai, I'm very fortunate." "That's enough for me." " But Princess Ren?" " Enough!" "You're running away until the end?" "What will happen to Princess Ren if you die?" "Princess!" "Promise me one thing." "Live..." "Live your life as you wish." "Even if Kasuga falls, live with dignity!" "This is my final wish." "I have a final wish, too." "Come back alive." "If you..." "Come back to me alive..." "I'll live as I wish - - with you." "Princess." "What's wrong?" "You'd better get some sleep." "What should we do?" "Everyone's risking their life to protect their kingdom." "What can we do?" "We're not from this world." "But..." "I want to do something." "I want to help." "You're your old self again." "What do you mean?" "I have an idea." "What?" "Matabei!" "Let's take a picture!" "Young Master, I guess women aren't your only weakness." "You look like you're going to faint!" "Be quiet!" "You'll see a flash." "Don't be surprised." "Young Master!" "It's me!" "Go, Bunshiro." "Not me..." "Don't be scared!" "Have them flash you, too." "Don't faint on us, now." "Don't push me!" "Front line, charge!" "Scared, father?" "Who, me?" "Scared?" "What are you scared of?" "Can we have one, too?" "Move in on the right." "That's you, Heikichi!" "Umazo, what a long face!" "What about Mohei's face!" "Shinzaemon, Koroku, what kind of face is that?" "One more." "Thank you, mother." "You look like a man." "Thank you for those pictures." "It's evidence that we existed." "Please come back alive." "I'm blessed to have met you all." "It was short, but it was fun." "You remember, Shinichi?" "I'm here today because of you." "You gave me this time." "I'll never forget that." "Save your tears for the trip home." "Let's go." "Matabei!" "Are you sure?" "Take this." "If something happens to me..." "We all grew up together." "It may be enemy territory out there." "But this is where we were born and raised." "There's nothing to fear!" "Let's break through their main line, and bring down Takatora!" "Leave those who fall behind, even if it's your brother." "Understand?" "Open the gate." "Forward!" "Follow them." "We part here." "Master!" "I told you guys to escape while you can." "What kind of servant abandons his master?" "Master, let us come along." "You fools." "Take care." "We'll charge down this hill toward the enemy line." "Go!" "Fight only those who come after you!" "Kasuga's men!" "Get up!" "Don't run!" "Spearmen, charge!" "Charge!" "Lord, it may be time to step back." "Indeed, they're stronger than we thought." "Sir!" "Be quiet!" "I will wait for Matabei here." "Go Matabei!" "It doesn't look good." "They'll be surrounded." "Dad, let's go help them!" "Dad!" "I want to go, too." "But Shinichi, my first priority is to protect my family." "How can you protect a family if you abandon your friends?" "Shinichi!" "I'm sick of running away!" "Princess, where are you going?" "Outside." "Please stop." "Princess, I know what you're thinking." "You can't." "I hate you, Yoshino!" "Princess." "I'll stop her." "Princess!" "Princess!" "Princess!" "Ren!" "Step aside." "Make a spear barricade!" "Move it!" "Move it!" "I'll run you over!" "Matabei!" "Matabei, we're here to help." "Fools!" "Let's go!" "This is our chance!" "Move it!" "Move it!" "No insurance coverage here!" "What the hell?" "How strange..." "It's coming this way!" "Please!" "Into the camp." "Men, don't let them near us!" "Matabei!" "You fiend!" "Come and get me, Matabei!" "Retainers, advance!" "Charge!" "We'll take you all on!" "Takatora!" "Don't interfere!" "I'll take care of him!" "I was waiting for you, Matabei!" "Lord!" "No!" "I said leave him to me!" "I'm Lord Protector of my kingdoms, Takatora Okurai!" "Challenge accepted!" "I'm Commanding General of Kasuga, Matabei Ijiri!" "Come on!" "I got you!" "He's strong!" "It's all your fault!" "Why did Princess Ren choose you?" "You're just a lowly samurai!" "What about my rank?" "My power?" "Does it mean nothing to Princess Ren?" "She doesn't measure a man by his rank!" "You're finished!" "Lord!" "Stop!" "Don't put me to shame!" "Matabei, you did it!" "Of all places..." "By a petty samurai..." "You never know when you'll trip and fall." "Do it!" "What's he doing?" "Taking his head." "No samurai would spare an enemy leader at his feet." "Wait a minute!" "We won, right?" "They know better than to attack us again." "So let him go!" "Nothing will be gained by killing him, Matabei." "Listen!" "Okurai's men." "We've taken Takatora Okurai." "But..." "He's not dead." "We'll just take his topknot and return him to you." "Retreat!" "Fold up the camp!" "I won't forget this." "I'll be there in your time of need." "Young Master!" "Matabei!" "Ren!" "They did it!" "Well done, Matabei!" "I bet Okurai's men still can't believe they lost." "But we've lost quite a few, too." "It's a miracle we're still alive." "We can eat mom's cooking again." "I'm sick of her cooking." "Shinichi wants to be a samurai." "Me, too." "You have your own battle to win." "You're right." "Shinichi, we couldn't have done it without you." "Come on..." "The Lord will give you a present." "What do you want?" "How about your sword?" "Mine?" "No, I can't." "This was my father's sword." "The Lord has many fine swords." "Choose one of his." "Hey, I forgot all about this." "I have to give it to Princess Ren." "But I'm alive!" "Throw that away!" "Then give me your sword." "Matabei and his men are back." "Princess!" "Mind your manners!" "It's Princess Ren!" "You're always joking around." "Look over there!" "Princess Ren!" "Princess!" "Yoshino!" "Let her go." "Sir..." "Go." "What?" "Matabei!" "I've been shot..." "Matabei!" "So it's here..." "So..." "That's how it was." "Shinichi." "The time you gave me has finally run out." "I'll give you this." "Your advice was sound." "I'm glad I didn't use it." "Matabei!" "Matabei!" "Matabei!" "Princess..." "Matabei!" "It doesn't look good." "Fool!" "Did you forget?" "If you come back to me, I'll live as I wish." "I told you I'd live as I wish... with you!" "Don't die!" "Princess..." "I'm a lucky man." "Matabei?" "Don't die, Matabei!" "I won't allow it!" "I won't let you die!" "Matabei!" "Who was it?" "Who did this?" "Come out!" "Don't leave me." "Matabei!" "My wish brought you here and caused you hardships." "Matabei's time was up when you arrived." "In reality, he was supposed to die back then." "But because of you..." "Matabei had the chance to protect this kingdom and me." "I think that's why you were brought here." "If that's true, Shinichi, your job is done." "I'm sure you can go home now." "Princess Ren..." "Did you want to marry Matabei?" "I've never loved a man so much." "This is from Matabei." "For you, Princess." "Thank you for everything." "Take care." "I'll think of you every time I come here." "We will too." "We'll remember you and Matabei and everyone else." "So that's the hill where Kasuga Castle stood." "Shall we go take a look?" "You're welcome." "Thank you." "From Ren." "So where are you going?" "School." "Why don't you take a day off?" "I'm done with running away." "He's changed." "He looks different." "Men can mature overnight, you know." "So why don't you?" "Yes, ma'am." "Tonight is a fine night." "What are you doing?" "Filming you in high spirits." "Why is Matabei in such good spirits?" "One." "Princess Ren's engagement is off." "Two." "Princess Ren's engagement is..." "You idiot!" "Wait, Shinichi!"
