"Episode 6" "Episode 7" "Episode 6" "While engaging the Takeda in battle suddenly appeared." "Nobuhide." "his death grants the perfect opportunity to attack the clan." "it is the spark that will ignite the feud between Nobunaga and Nobukatsu's men." "With Nobuhide's death the Oda clan is now beset with troubles both from within and without and faced with unprecedented calamity." "Let's stay here and keep watch for a while." "Once the castle faces certain doom you can use The Fool to save the day right in front of the advisors' very eyes." "Hideyoshi..." "Hey." "Nobuhide-sama this is the best I can do right now but I'll continue to help Nobu-sama as much as I can." "Turn that frown upside-down!" "It's not your fault." "That Western Regalia user attacked us out of nowhere." "right?" "Father wanted Brother to have this?" "The inheritance..." "Nobunaga-sama is nowhere to be found?" "Who will make arrangements for Nobuhide-sama's funeral?" "Good grief!" "even during this crisis!" "Mitsuhide do you know where Nobunaga is?" "Who knows?" "He's not even in the workshop?" "You don't need to look for him." "What?" "The castle folk may be raising a fuss but pay them no mind." "But..." "Nobu will come." "He just needs a little time." "Ranmaru." "above all others" "I ask to stay calm and wait for him." "Mitsuhide..." "All right." "See you later." "What is Nobunaga-sama thinking?" "Indeed." "It is his own father's funeral." "Nobukatsu-sama." "please preside over the funeral and begin the rites." "But we should wait for Nobunaga." "We have waited for him long enough." "If the first son is not present it is the second son's duty to fulfill his role." "We cannot delay the rites any further." "Please." "Hayashi-dono." "Is it in our best interest to conduct the rites without the heir present?" "Is it in our best interest for the heir to be absent?" "But... enough." "It pains me to see our lack of unity on display in an argument before Nobuhide-sama himself." "Nobukatsu-sama." "It was also Nobuhide-sama's wish" "Nobukatsu-sama." "Nobukatsu-sama!" "Nobukatsu." "but strictly as my brother's proxy." "If that is everyone's wish..." "Oda Nobuhide—" "Nobunaga-sama!" "P-Please wait!" "Wh..." "What unconscionable attire!" "Nobu!" "Halt!" "You may be the heir disruptive behavior at this solemn funeral will not be tolerated!" "You... fool!" "Hm..." "Hey!" "What's your problem?" "!" "You..." "You enormous fool!" "This is an act of treason against the clan lord." "Nobunaga is not worthy of becoming clan lord!" "Seize him." "Seize Hayashi-dono!" "Seize him." "I can take myself to the dungeon." "Get it done." "Father... you often enjoyed tea under this cherry tree." "I remember well the tales you used to tell me of far-off lands and my deceased mother..." "But I will never hear them again." "I cannot cry." "It is easier to smile." "Ichihime-sama." "I forced you into a difficult position earlier." "No despite my presence." "you always share the burden of Nobu's actions." "I wonder how many will realize his true intent..." "Father has entrusted me with with his inheritance to be given to Nobu at the right time." "Inheritance?" "War is coming." "The Oda clan must stand united without delay." "Everyone will say Nobukatsu should become the next clan lord." "Although Nobukatsu is too gentle to shoulder such a burden there is too little time for Nobu to make himself understood." "Father's death... was all too soon." "And if this inheritance were to come to light under such circumstances it would only give rise to new strife." "Ichihime-sama" "Nobu is a man who has both heaven and earth in his reach." "Mitsuhide..." "It will be all right." "The time for you to give him the inheritance will come." "I swear it." "You have nothing to fear." "Who the hell does he think he is?" "!" "that get-up..." "There's no way he's the Savior-King!" "It is admirable that you are taking initiative in the matter of your departure." "Would you like me to help?" "Leave me alone!" "how frightful." "The golden-head will bite me!" "too." "He's such a fool." "You are unable to grasp the vastness of my fiancé's potential." "You are still a child." "Child?" "Look who's talking." "What?" "How dare you!" "You insolent girl!" "Get out!" "Gladly!" "Unless you are strong enough to see his goals and to support him you cannot hope to stay beside such a man in these war-torn times." "What?" "That's my parting gift to you." "What was that about?" "!" "Is the Oda clan going to be all right?" "We cannot possibly follow that fool." "Even as we wring our hands the Takeda forces will be sure to return." "It would be for the best if Nobukatsu-sama became the clan lord." "Mitsuhide." "as far as one can see." "the scars of war still remain here and there." "the Takeda will come yet again." "as well." "Dad!" "I don't wish for anyone to suffer the loss of a loved one again..." "The Oda clan must achieve unity as soon as possible." "Mitsuhide." "my lord?" "Shibata says he will hold a war council tomorrow." "He would like me to become clan lord during my brother's absence." "Don't misunderstand me." "I have no intention of pushing my brother aside and seizing power." "But many advisors oppose my brother's succession." "And some have begun to scheme against my brother." "So" "I may acquiesce to their demands for the moment." "I will first unite the Oda Clan as the clan lord then eventually step aside for my brother." "Should you become the clan lord how do you envision yourself ruling the Oda Clan?" "I am not sure as of yet but I will seek everyone's cooperation and avoid war as much as possible." "Avoid?" "Uesugi and the other clans now poised to strike at any moment?" "I intend to succeed the Oda Clan." "I believe it to be the best way my sister" "and everyone in the clan." "I knew you'd come by soon." "Da Vinci!" "To think you would desert the very man who was willing to steal a star ship for you." "How cruel!" "Is this because of his behavior?" "Nobunaga has nothing to do with it!" "But what's the point of staying here when he's not the Savior-King?" "I see." "So you have determined what manner of man he is." "The exact opposite." "I will never understand a guy like him nor do I wish to." "Understanding the inscrutable" "Mademoiselle." "you look to be the same size as my right hand." "is it not?" "Then are my eyes deceiving me?" "The truth can be concealed by the position one chooses to take but can also be revealed once more." "I won't draw any." "now." "Do it as a parting farewell." "It is Strength!" "The beast symbolizes a mighty strength." "The woman embracing the beast signifies that great strength needs to be supported by strength of another kind." "I'm tired of your games!" "What are you trying to accomplish by having me draw these cards?" "!" "I am not your pawn!" "I wonder what manner of ley line vortex will engulf you." "I'm counting on you." "my lord!" "we must only wait for results." "Nobukatsu-sama once you agree to become the clan lord you will not be allowed to step down." "Your careful consideration of your advisors your desire for everyone's happiness..." "In a different era you would have been a great ruler." "But we live in a time of war." "this hell cannot be tamed." "who will follow the demon lord of Hell... will also become a demon." "Others just do not see his true self." "You are unable to grasp the vastness of my fiancé's potential." "You are still a child." "What is that?" "A beast?" "a voice..." "Nobunaga?" "Why..." "Brother..." "I will become a demon!" "Nobu..." "Nobunaga!" "Himiko." "My betrothed..." "I have fulfilled... my duty... as your wife..." "This... is love in a time of war." "Take care of... him." "Times are changing." "The currents of old create new turmoil and so life continues on." "Next time:" "The Hierophant." "Splendid!" "The manliest of men!" "0000"
