"You have to get ready." "Seisuke is there and is waiting for you." "I forgot!" "Sorry." "I'm coming." "Work goes before women..." "Finally an exemplary boss." "May the system work, this time." " I count on you." " It will be ok." "Rich and nice as he is." "Jiroku..." "The girl you are going to meet, do you know who she is?" "She is the daughter of a long distance relative of Echigoya, our client." "She must be beautiful." "Definitely." "The boss is leaving!" "Here I am." "Let's go." "We will be in Edo tomorrow evening." "Boss, have a nice trip." "I entrust you my house." "Turn off the fire every night." "Don't worry." "Have a good journey!" "Have a good journey!" "It is so unfair!" "Such a good man that can't find a wife..." "It will work, this time." "He tried so many times!" "If only it could work..." "I never met such a good man." "And yet, I know many people!" "He helps out his workers." "And he is not the kind to run after women." "Apart from this, he is the perfect man." "I will not be demanding." "Given my age..." "We will go by him twice." "Look at him carefully." "That's his boat!" "Look at Echigoya's lantern." "It's his boat." "She is the daughter of one of Echigoya's long distance relative." "She is a bit old, but honestly..." "I perfectly understood." "Hey, Jiroku..." "I never gave up these arrangements." "Do you know why?" "I have to get married, and have a son and heir." "In respect of my adoptive parents." "Seisuke, good evening!" "Good evening, Echigoya!" "He is the one in middle." "As soon as we see Echigoya, we will go back to the country." "Don't be difficult." "Echigoya went through so much pain..." "Whatever his answer will be, remain dignified." "They arrived." "Good morning gentlemen." "Did you already prepare your luggage?" "Yes, we are going back." "But you haven't seen anything of Edo!" "Dear Sano." "I received a reply from her." "She wants... some months to think." "I understood." "You are my best client and I bother you with my private life." "Don't say that." "You embarrass me." "Let's change subject." "We shall go visit Yoshiwara." "Mr Sano, are you coming with us?" "That's nice of you but, we planned to pass by Koshu to take some orders." "A man has to go to Yoshiwara at least once in his life." "Please accept our invitation!" "Can we deprave your boss?" "I have nothing against that." "I can't refuse such a lovely invitation." "Can I go visit Yoshiwara?" "Of course." "It will take your mind off things." "I follow you." "Finally!" "Four palanquins!" "Good morning Sirs!" "Yoshiwara, it's fascinating." "Foremost, there are these tea houses." "It's the first stop." "We will quench our thirst there." " You will be better off in the lounge." " Here, it's ok." "What a nice surprise!" "You are very welcome." " Go up to the living room!" " No." "Ok." "I have a surprise for you." " Chosuke, broker." " Seisuke, likewise." "You?"

"His hideous stain scares me." "It's awful." "Boss, let me go away." "Please!" " Ah, that girl!" " What are we going to do?" " Call Satsuki." " Ok." "It's this client." "Boss!" "Nobody wants to sit with the new client." "Your girls are ignoring my client." "What am I going to tell Echigoya?" "It seems that he has a horrible stain on his face." "What is the problem with that?" "The girls don't like that kind of client!" "Are they being difficult?" "Teach them how to do their job." "Don't get upset." "He is in the weaving business." "He has an answer for everything." "A good deal, believe me!" "Imagine that I was thinking about it." "Okino, what do you think about her?" "She is our chance." "We just have to try." "Don't even think about it!" "She is an old convict." "You want to turn her into a courtesan?" "Think about my client." "Besides, the girls will be against." "What do you want to do?" "If they refuse..." "Make the convict come." "As you wish..." "Hey, you..." "Come see the boss." "Sit down." "Is your name Tsuru?" "I will give you a client." "I don't have a choice anyway." "She understands quickly." "Good, you will become a courtesan." "But if you fail, your life here will end." "I have to make you win, don't I?" "Call the makeup artist." "What a nerve!" "It's promising." "For an ex-detainee, it's the chance of your life." "But don't blow it." "A stain, it's nothing." "Look at the other cheek." "So?" "Another girl is coming." "Quick!" "Jiro is bored." "I already had fun." "Wait!" "Call her quickly." "She is coming." "She arrived!" "This is Dame Tamazuru." "No, go from the back!" "She dared passing in front of the tayu (high-ranking courtesan)!" "Who is her teacher?" "Don't mix her up with us." "Nobody educated her?" "I never saw her." "The tayu is leaving!" "I'm thirsty." "Serve me." "The cup." "Pour." "It's good!" "More." "Do you drink?" "Thank you." "Tell me..." "This stain I have, does it bother you?" "Of course not." "It's not your heart which is stained." "I ate it, your stain." "It's not there anymore." "I am so happy to see you so joyful." "What is this?" "Prints of Yoshiwara." "Did you buy them?" "They are for the girls of the atelier." "Don't do that!" "Look carefully." "Look!" "They are the "Great Ladies"." "Even the great masters are at their feet." "How did the arrangement go?" "With the girl?" "I didn't like her." "I talked the boss out of it." "Too old for him." "Plus, she was too conventional to come live in the countryside." "We have to start over again." "It will postpone our engagement." "Osaki, a bit more patience." "This trip was good." "It made the boss happy." "It was the first time." "Forget that he went to Yoshiwara!" " It's over." " Thank you." "Who's next?" "What a nerve, this convict!" "You will be the last one." "Move!" "She sleeps with a monster." "We would have seen everything." " It's disgusting!" " Yes!"

""Take good care of the clients."" "It's important." "Cherish them as you would cherish your own parents." "Is that clear?" "Tayu, thank you." "Here, we do not welcome the scum from Fukagawa..." "She doesn't understand anything." "It's scary." "Girls!" " Come see!" " What?" "They are burying someone at Kameya's house." " Kameya?" " Yes!" "It must be Asazuma." "She was very ill." "Let's go." "What misery!" "Nobody from her family came to pray for her." "Look carefully." "Look at how our funerals are going to be." "It might be." "They make us slave away, and at the end..." "You..." "Come sit with us." "You know..." "The man with the stain could bring you out of here." "You, the criminal, you will die here." "You will end up in the common grave." "Talk for yourself!" "It's you the one ending up there." "Stop treating me like a criminal!" "I'm not here for pleasure." "We are all the same." "And I will become the tayu!" "Really?" "Look at you!" "A convict could never become one." "A courtisan, do you at least know what it is?" "I'll manage!" "Move away!" "Do my hair!" "Quickly!" "Do my hair." "Look at her." "This trollop..." "She thinks she is like us." "How irritating!" "Otsuru!" "It's me." "Eiji, my darling!" "I looked for you everywhere." "I'm going to see your boss." "I have an appointment." "Where are you going?" "Leave me." "What is this?" "Are you the boss?" "Who are you?" "A little scum." "My name is Eiji." "My wife is in your house." "Your wife, you're saying?" "Are you coming to take her back?" "No, not at all." "I have the authorisation." "You can go complain to the police." "You know that I can't." "I wasrt there when they arrested her." "I just want to talk to her." "Let me see her." "Ah, yes!" "Hey!" "Bring him to the storeroom and call Otsuru." "Saké as well." " But..." " Do what I say." "Follow me." "Thank you!" "Boss, it's risky!" "This is her man, a scum." "If they see their man, they get motivated, the whores." "In any case, Otsuru will be the one paying." "Don't forget to count the saké." "You are late." "And you even have a happy face." "No, I was just worried about you." "Where were you, that night?" "Again at the bar?" "I was paying you to protect me." "Now, I'm stuck here." "If I was there, you wouldn't have been arrested." "Too bad." "I will come here." "I know you well." "You are a real parasite." "So, you don't want me anymore." "Of course I do!" "My boss understands things well." "Otsuru, what are you thinking about?" "Are you going to Edo?" "I'm going to present my new things to the distributors." "That's very good." "Did you want to talk to me?" "Think about placing your spring orders." "For sure." "Your books will be filled up." "I count on you." "With this girl, you made the right decision." "No woman has ever been so kind to me." "She has a lot to give." "You will not be deceived." "If I decide now, to offer myself her services, how much would she take?" "Actually, I'm the one taking care of the funds." "It's 3 bu, lunch and evening." "For a whole day, one ryo and two bu." "Plus the exclusivity fees." "It's 75% in addition." "Today, I will only charge 50%." "The service is not included." "In total, you need to count five ryo." "Ok." "There might be some extra charges once in a while, but it will always be in order to improve the service." "I also heard that I could buy her." "Buy her?" "The boss Hyogoya cares a lot about this girl." "But maybe you could convince him, if you are faithful to Otsuru." "I understand." "For the moment, take 50 ryo." "Open me an account with that money." "Fifty ryo..." "Ok!" "He gave you 50 ryo?" "He is made of gold, this bumpkin!" "And that's not all." "He wants to buy her." "Better and better." "And emotional, on top of that!" "She knew how to treat him." " Like you with me." " Shut up." "We shall talk business, nothing else." "It's true that she has a nice bottom." "It can help." "Don't touch." "No!" "Whoever loses, wins!" "A bit more!" "I'm going to serve you." "Little clinging." "I prefer one piece." "We arrived." "It's bad to drink so much." "Water." "Water!" "Take good care of your girl." "I leave you." "Good night." "Here, some water." " Drink." " No!" "Why not?" "I want to drink from your mouth." "Mister." "She is dead drunk." "Really?" " What is it?" " A small gift." "Go back safely." "I see." "I bother you, is that it?" "I thought so." "What face you have!" "Did you live your youth?" "That's hard to believe!" "What?" "Dirty bastard!" "I don't care about Yoshiwara." "I don't care about the boss!" "Here, they treat women as merchandise." "They are all animals!" "Animals!" "I get furious!" "I get furious!" "Tamazuru..." "Tamazuru!" "What's going on?" "Don't worry." "I'm not speaking about you." "You, Jiro, you are kind and nice." "Tell me..." " Are you married?" " No." "So I can be your wife then!" "No." "I must become tayu first." "Patience." "Patience!" "Tayu?" "Will you help me?" "And then," "I will be able to become your wife." "Ok." "I will help you." "Now, sleep." "Do you promise?" "I'm happy." "And you, you are unappy." "Listen..." "You can count on me." "I will make you happy." "Thank you." "I am happy." "Good night." "Jiroku, what's written here?" "The boss stays in Yoshiwara a while more." "He must have found a good woman." "Good for him." "He wants me to send him the 200 ryo of Koshu's client." "It's the first time that he asks me for so much money." "You are always worried about him." "What about me, do I count anything?" "It's frustrating!" "In Yoshiwara, they only talk about you and Tamazuru." "In Yoshiwara, they admire your kindness towards this ex-detainee." "I'm embarrassed." "You are a fake introvert!" "You are an absolute charmer." "Share your happiness with us!" "It's true." "There is someone from your hometown together with Echigoya." "Echigoya?" "Let them come in." "So early, it's weird." "Please, clear everything up." "Good morning." "Don't move." "Leave us alone." " You are serious!" " Do what I say." "Boss," "Here are the 200 ryo." "You could have sent them." "Did you complain to Mr Echigoya?" "No, I wanted to accompany him." "It seems like you entertain an ex-detainee." "A courtesan, if I understand correctly." "Think about your reputation." "People will think you are a party-lover." "You could say it's my fault." "Yes, I admit it." "I appreciate your attention." "I have always shared the pain of my workers." "I believe knowing the value of money." "But I want you to meet this woman." "Bring me to the Hyogoya House." "Jiroku, come with us." "They arrived!" "They arrived!" "Otsuru!" "Is that him, your client?" "Yes." "I'm going to talk to him." "No way!" "He is a big client." "Do you want to get rid of me?" "Stop screaming." "Go away." "Otsuru, wait!" "Go back home!" "A pimp like yourself should understand." "Pimp?" "Me?" "I came to see a client." "It's not forbidden." "I want to see him." "Bring him to me!" "Leave her alone." "Leave our clients in peace." "What are you waiting for to kick him out?" "Come on, let's go!" "Off with you!" "I'll come back!" " Your cup." " I don't drink." " Let's go, let's go." " No, really." "What does she do?" "Calm down, she is coming." "Mister was getting impatient." "Hurry!" "Because of your delay, Mister shouted at me." "Relax a bit the atmosphere." "Do you recognise Mr Echigoya?" "We owe him our encounter." "Never forget that." "This is Jiroku, my young assistant." "Mr Echigoya, aren't they cute together?" "The whole Yoshiwara speaks about it." "We are under their charm." "Jiro is everything for me." "You see!" "A declaration of love!" "He will make me a tayu." "A tayu?" "She doesn't know anything about the art of the geisha." "She will learn, of course." "Mister will encourage her." "Certainly!" "Don't make her dream in vain." "Mr Sano doesn't know what a courtesan is." "But..." "Jiro promised me." "And I will do everything to make it happen." "Does she want to become a courtesan?" "Good!" "Why not?" "She could make good revenues." " We never know." " You think?" "Once courtisan, she will cost more." "It's not hard." "But there is the competition..." "We'll have to grease the wheels of the jury's can't." " Should we try?" " Yes!" "Mister will talk to the boss." "Did you leave Echigoya?" "He left." "And your assistant?" "He is too serious to stay here." "Left alone from everybody!" "I have to talk to you, boss." "Tamazuru wants to become tayu." "We were talking about it." "What do you think about it?" "It will not be easy." "She needs an artistic training." "During this time, she will not be allowed to have any clients." "You will have to take care of her at your own expenses." "Really?" "She will also need furniture and toilette." "And the parade, how much is it?" "Let's say..." "It should be one thousand ryo in total." "One thousand ryo!" "That's a lot of money." "But I'm sure that with your support, she will do everything to succeed." "It will be tough, but we will train her." "If you love her, don't hesitate." "You will not be deceived." "Here is Dame Tamazuru!" "Thank you for saluting our new courtesan." "It will be Yoshiwara's best parade!" "Here is Dame Tamazuru!" "Thank you for saluting our new courtesan!" "Don't stand there." "Come in." "What do you want?" "They say that," "Otsuru will be courtesan in March." "So?" "My presence interfere with her promotion." "So I decided to take a journey." "What a nice idea!" "Do not refrain from it." "I would like..." "that you pay for my journey." " Extortion?" " No." "You will never get a cent from me." "Get out!" "If this is the case..." "I will go bother Mr Sano." "Hey, man!" "Come with me." "Listen to me carefully." "Do not ever come back to Yoshiwara." "Ah, really." "Understood?" "Otsuru!" "My brother." "My brother?" "Let's get over that." "I'm in a hurry." "Mr. I am..." "You are impolite." " Excuse yourself." " Stop that." "I will leave Edo not to disturb her promotion." " I need money." " My brother!" "Give her 10 ryo." "I'll come back to get them." "He jumped." "Sorry." "Bastards!" "Get closer!" "My brother is a yakuza." "I don't want to see him ever again." "You want?" "Call the boss." "Will 10 ryo be enough?" "How nice you are!" "Excuse-me." "My brother came." "I'm sorry for all this mess." "Accept our apologies." "Ok." "Please come in." "She explained me." "She wants to pay for her brother's trip to Osaka." "Forget your ungrateful brother!" "You are bothering this man." "It's not like that." "I wanted to say that I had nothing on me." "Lend me ten ryo." "Are you going to give them to her?" "This brother is lucky to have such a kind sister." "All right." "My assistant will give him the money." " Ok?" " Yes." "I never want to see him again." "By the way..." "Otsuru is eligible to the final contest." "She made incredible efforts." "Congratulate her." "Tamazuru, great work!" "I could brag about it when I'll come back." "You will." "By the way, let's do the calculations." "Between the already paid expenses and the ones pertaining to the preparation of the show it will be a total 1300 ryo." "Do we agree?" "Excuse me." "The assistant of your hotel is here." "He says it is urgent." "It's a message from your home." "Hail is devastating my region." "The sky became completely black." "A deluge of hailstones fell down." "As big as eggs." "When the rain stopped, the bushes were completely torn apart." "The silkworms have no more leaves to eat." "They die." "Please." "We are your subcontractors." "You are the only one that can save our factories." "Which is the more urgent thing to do?" "We should buy the spared bushes and transport here the leaves to nourish the worms." "Jiroku." "Come." "Take these 200 ryo, and give them to the subcontractors." "And then... with these other 300 ryo, go buy some silk thread in bulk to Shinshu." "Quickly." ""From Tamazuru who is dying from love for her darling Sano."" "She is progressing with her writing." "Let me see." ""A rich sake merchant wants to buy me." ""You can see until which point he loves me." ""Come quickly." "Furthermore, the day of the contest is approaching." ""I need your encouragements." "Come quickly!"" "Not bad." "Leave us." "Call Yoshizo!" "She is not scared of anything." "She goes beyond my expectations." "I'm not sure he's going to believe it." "Arert you going a bit far?" "Of course not!" "It seems that business is going bad in Shinshu." "Let's bleed the pig dry before he dies." "You want?" "Bring this letter to Sano." "Otsuru's client?" "Ok." "I forbid you to say something bad about the boss." "He has always been generous with us." "I won't say anything bad." "I know that it is thanks to him that the factory got bigger." "But such a serious man..." "Why does he spend so much money in Yoshiwara?" "This is what I'm talking about." "Why do you care?" "After all, it's his money." "It has nothing to do with us." "He is a man." "Who doesn't dream at least once in their lives of crazy love?" "Isn't it true?" "Please!" "Am I at Mr Sano's house?" "Ah, good morning." "I will call you in case of need." "Take the pillow." "Come in." "You have a great house." "Tamazuru will be happy." "It's a real fairy tale." "What do you want exactly?" "First of all, I have a letter from Otsuru for you." "You are no longer coming to see her." "She is wondering what's going on." "She cries about it every day." "You make her suffer." "A rich sake merchant wants to buy me." "Come back quickly, my darling." "In a while," "I will pass the contest to become tayu." "I need your support." "I wait for you praying Buddha and the gods." "Tamazuru, the one who loves you." "In her letter, she talks about a merchant." "He is a new client, a rustic kind." "Of course, he is rich." "But he doesn't have your qualities." "Tamazuru is seeing him?" "Of course not!" "Tamazuru is totally reserved to you." "According to our engagements." "I'm reassured." "By the way..." "The day of the show is approaching." "Don't forget the 1300 ryo as promised." "My boss would like to know when you will pay." "It's true that I promised." "The only thing is, right now... money hardly comes in." "Really?" "Given the richness of your house, allow me to doubt that." "Business implies risks." "The hail we had last year destroyed the whole harvest." "Could be..." "But if you break your engagement," "Tamazuru will be obliged to have clients again." "And all the money you invested in her will be gone for nothing." "I make you a proposal." "For the 800 ryo of the show, we give you a delay." "Today, you can pay me only the other expenses." "It's 500 ryo." "And Tamazuru will remain your courtesan." "Nobody can touch her, a part from you." "Here are the 500 ryo." "Take them." "500 ryo..." "I can reassure you that Tamazuru will be yours." ""The sale of this sword will pay for the child's education."" "Our subcontractors are panicking." "The purchased thread is of bad quality." "I can't really believe it." "If they say it, it means it is true." "In bad times, bad luck makes bad luck." "Tell them that we'll buy their thread and that we'll compensate for it." "Boss, this is not the right moment." "We have proper orders to pay." "And our stocks are empty..." "I know." "Jiroku." "Come close to me." "As you know," "I was abandoned by my own parents." "Here, read this." ""...will pay for the child's education."" "This famous sword is won'th a fortune." "1000 ryo." "May be more." "Boss, this sword makes me shiver." "My parents had regrets." "Jiroku..." "Let's go sell this sword in Edo." "And I will also ask Echigoya to borrow me 1000 ryo." "With money, we'll go to Koshu to buy some threads." "This natural catastrophe hasn't left me indifferent." "I prepared a bill of exchange won'th of 1000 ryo." "I'm waiting for the agreement of my associates." "Thank you." "On the other hand" "I have one thing to add." "It's quite delicate." "But since I reunited you here," "I owe you some explanations." "In Yoshiwara, they say that you finance a show for a tayu." "They don't borrow to party men." "It's not justifiable." "It is time to come back to reason." "Stop this madness." "It's for your credibility." "Get away from the escapades of Yoshiwara." "I promise." "You promise." "That's good." "I'll borrow 300 ryo." "The rest of you, 100 ryo each." "Ok." "Here is the bill of exchange." "A heartily thank you." "This money will save my genes." "Jiroku, you must find me incurable." "Here I am in front of the door of Yoshiwara." "Not at all!" "Last year, you told me about the wish of having an heir." "I was touched." "I am strongly determined to stop this foolishness." "I will go ask the Hyogoya patron to postpone the show until august." "I will buy Tamazuru, and I will work again like before." "You reassure me." "I have nothing else to say." "Let's go." "This sword, try to sell it at the best price." "You can count on me." "Keep our belongings." "Let's meet here." " See you later." " Have a good day." "Good grief!" "But that's Mr Sano!" "After all this time." "What have you been doing?" "I had some problems." "You came back at the right time." "Tamazuru is passing the contest." " The contest?" " Of course!" " And the boss?" " There." "I bring you there." "If Tamazuru passes, she will make the big show!" "You must be impatient." "It was the last test." "She was great." "She is not perfectly ready yet." "It would be presumptuous to ask you to make her a tayu." "But I engage myself in continuing her training." "Here are the results from the jury." "You are in for the contest." "Gentlemen from the jury, thank you!" "Let's congratulate the young promoted." "Congratulations!" "Thanks to you, a new courtesan is born." "Your efforts will be rewarded." "It's my new room." "All this, it is thanks to you." "I am happy." "Excuse-us." "Her dream became true." "Now she is a tayu." "The show on your name will take place next March." "We got the agreement from the syndicate to organise it." "We came to congratulate you." "As a matter of fact, we are just waiting for your payment." "The 800 ryo, as agreed." "Actually," "I came today to discuss this matter with you." "I wanted to talk about it before, but there was the contest..." "I would like to know..." "Is there the possibility to postpone the show?" "Postpone it?" "In Yashu, the blackberry bushes suffered enormously from the bad weather." "I spent a lot to repair the damages." "Right now, I'm a little short on cash." "You are short?" "You are joking, I hope!" "Even if you are short on cash," "I cannot cancel the show." "You don't have to cancel it." "But just to postpone it of a couple of months." " A couple of months?" " Until august." "As soon as business takes up again," "I will buy her." " Business?" " Yes." "I will not cause you any problem." "But tell me..." "What if it wouldn't get better?" "The joke has lasted long enough." "No one is stupid enough to believe that it will get better." ""Stupid"?" "You are exaggerating." "I have already done a lot for Tamazuru." " You can trust me." " Trust you?" "It's you!" "Let's do like this." "I cannot postpone the show without a guarantee." "Pay me the expenses for Tamazuru." "More expenses?" "Of course." "There are still six months until August, meaning 180 days." "Now that she is a tayu," "She could earn 5 ryo per day, at least." "5 ryo times 180 days, it's 900 ryo." "Plus the 800 of the show, it will be 1700 ryo." "If you promise to pay this amount," "I will wait." "Still 1700 ryo?" "But..." "Your greediness doesn't have any limit." "Greediness, you say?" "We count this way, here." "Pay 800 ryo now." "Otherwise, expenses will get bigger and bigger." "If you have cash on you, don't hesitate to take it out." "This money..." "I can't." "You can't?" "In such case, it is a pity." "We will then give Tamazuru to the saké merchant." "Do you agree?" "It's nonsense!" "You didn't understand anything." "Look at how much it has been costing." "And you want us to pay for that?" "What an idiotic monster!" "Monster?" "Sir is leaving!" " Wait!" " For what?" "Did you change your mind?" "No!" "Tamazuru." "You still haven't said anything." "I want to know what you think." "Sometimes we live difficult moments." "I'm not sure you understand me." "If your boss obliges you, will you take someone else for the show?" "Or will you have the strength to wait until I'll buy you?" "Tamazuru!" "Tell me..." "Tell me what you think." "Sir..." "Stop tormenting her." "Here, the girls don't say anything." "Answer me." "Tell me what you think." "I want to hear you." "I want the show that will make me a tayu." "Afterwards, I want a rich man to buy me." "It doesn't matter which man." "You or another one, as long as he is rich." "Are you sincere when you say that?" "I am sincere." "It's the only way to get a life." "This show..." "Do you want to do it immediately?" "Yes, immediately." "Gloating in Yoshiwara," "I could get a revenge against all the ones that despised me." "I'll show them." "But then..." "When you said that you would marry me, were you lying every time?" "I never lied." "I always said I would marry you if you would make me become a tayu." "No more money, no more love..." "She knows how to talk better than we do." "What a talent!" "But then, why this letter?" "This is your letter, right?" "I wrote it while the boss was dictating it to me" "If you don't like it," "Talk to him about it." "He was dictating..." "It's too much..." "It's too much..." "It's too much..." "You are too cruel!" ""No more money, no more love."" "You are no longer my client." "Get down from my pillow." "Very well!" "You will have it, your money!" "Are you leaving?" "My sandals!" "Boss!" "Jiroku!" "The sword..." "Did you sell it?" "It's that..." "Nobody wants it." "Nobody?" "Why?" "According to the specialists, it came out from the prestigious forges of Kagotsurube even though it doesn't have its signature on it." "But in olden times, it brought bad luck to the Shogun Tokugawa." "And wherever I go, nobody wants to buy it." "Bad luck?" "We followed Jiroku." "You swore that you would never come back here." "What kind of man are you?" "Spending other people's money!" "It's over between us." "Your 1000 ryo, are here." "Don't think that I wanted to spend them." "Business is a matter of trust." "You didn't keep your promise." "Give back the bill of exchange." "Give it back to me." "Otherwise, I will lose my reputation in front of my associates." "Please." "Don't forget your hat." "Bring it to the pawn shop." "It may be won'th 100 ryo." "Jiroku!" "Boss, I am sorry." "Let's go back." "Bring some salt." "We need to purify the entrance." "Salt!" "Trusting such a man!" "Get lost!" "Boss." "Jiroku." "Don't say anything else." "Osaki..." "You must be very tired." "Good evening, boss." "Jiroku." "The boss looks gloomy." "What happened in Edo?" "I'll go heat up your bath." "I give you the sword back." "Do you hear anything?" "What is the boss doing?" "Yesterday, he locked himself up with his sword." "I fear the worst." "Me too." "Boss!" "Boss!" "Are you all there?" "Osaki too?" "That's good." "Oyasu." "Bring some saké." " Saké?" " Yes." "Immediately." "I have to talk to you, both of you." "Come here." "Jiroku." "I have decided to go to Kyoto." " To Kyoto?" " Yes." "I will be wholesaler in Nishijin." "I will start from scratch." "What about your house?" "I will leave it to you." " But..." " Don't say anything." "I am asking to listen to me, that's all." "You know that I no longer have my place here," "in this region." "And then, this sword that people say to bring bad luck," "I will offer it to the temple." "And then I will go to Edo to say goodbye to Echigoya." "After that, I'll go to Kyoto." "Boss!" "The saké is ready." "Thank you." "Now, sit there." "Do as I say." "Come on." "Sit down here." "Oyasu." "Leave the tray in front of them." "Stay with us." "I know that you wanted to get married." "Well..." "Let's celebrate it." "Oyasu and I will be your witnesses." "Now, I'm going to marry you." "Hold the cup firmly." "We don't cry at a wedding." "Drink fast and pass the cup to the bride." "Be a good couple." "Take good care of your husband." "Congratulations!" "I'm happy for you." "This saké of happiness," "I want to taste it as well." "I'm going to sing a short wedding song for you." "This beautiful home is the house of happiness..." "A stork and a tortue flirt in it..." "The animals of happiness..." "Courtesan Tamazuru." "You finally became the fine flower of Yoshiwara." "Are you satisfied?" "Here is Dame Tamazuru, tayu!" "Thanks for saluting the new tayu!" "To be an old convict, she managed pretty well." "Be careful, she must dominate men without qualms." "What happened to Mr Sano?" "He was dreaming to make this show..." "But he was thrown out." "It's true." "If he saw this!" "They say, that Sano paid for everything." "It didn't cost anything to Hyogoya?" "I don't know much about it." "I feel sorry for Mr Sano." "Hyogoya is the worse of the scoundrel." "And Sano the king of the vacuous." "Plus, they called him the "monster"." "Jiro!" "Are you crazy?" "You!" "You..." "You..." "You betrayed me!" "Wait!" "Wait!" "Tamazuru!" "Now, You are my wife!" "Leave us alone!" "Don't touch my wife!" "Come out, slickers!" "Scoundrels of Yoshiwara, show yourselves!" "I'm going to kill you!" "I'm going to kill you all!" "Jiro!" "Help me!" "Come out!" "Come out!" "Come out!" "THE END" "Subtitles Fra  Mars"
