"Nothing at all..." "Geez..." "I can't believe that he's the same guy who just finished fighting for the future of Japan." "Yeah... isn't it nice?" "All white!" "that it is." "Missie..." "What's for dinner tonight?" "Lobster?" "Sea bream?" "I'd be happy with eel... you are so pathetic!" "You're still leeching off her?" "You haven't matured at all!" "Are you really the same guy who mastered the Futae no Kiwami?" "This is different from that!" "Sanosuke!" "brat!" "Stop it!" "both of you come over here!" "Sanosuke..." "I want you to repair this wall." "and it's still like this!" "What?" "That wasn't me." "This wall was destroyed by Saito..." "No excuses!" "Serves you right!" "Yahiko!" "You're going to help me clean this place!" "and there's dust everywhere!" "We're going to dust the house with wet rags a hundred times!" "H-Hundred times?" "Miss Kaoru... that I did... come this way." "take this." "that it is..." "It's a fishing pole." "Fishing pole?" "Kenshin... we're barely squeezing out a living." "Can you please catch tonight's dinner for us?" "Kenshin!" "A huge catch!" "We're gonna be real hungry if we work like this!" "no thirty whales!" "We're going now!" "Take care!" "Can you take care of that side?" "Sure!" "1878" "That's right... time stopped on that day." "that I am..." "I have no idea how to fish... are you going to catch a whale or an octopus?" "Now that you mention it... it's the old fisherman!" "He always catches a lot of fish!" "Mister!" "Mister!" "You're the one who bumped into us." "We're telling you to pay up as an apology." "We know you're loaded." "little rich boy..." "H-Help!" "please!" "What the hell are you doing?" "I-It wasn't me!" "where did my dagger go?" "That was..." "That grace..." "That speed... he would..." "Who is he?" "W-What the hell is going on here?" "Is it a ghost?" "Damn you!" "You must be one of those thugs too!" "I won't forgive you!" "Don't let me catch you around again!" "What a weakling!" "Mister!" "he's dead!" "Who is crying?" "didn't I?" "Thanks!" "It looks like you are having quite a hard time there." "I know a spot where you can catch plenty of fish." "Here!" "Today is a perfect day for fishing." "that you are." "When did you stop slaying men?" "I've never met someone like you before whose swordsman's spirit contains both kindness and fierceness." "that I can't." "is that it?" "the fate of one who has lived too long." "Lived too long?" "Have you ever come here on an evening in early summer?" "This area becomes filled with fireflies." "They're called the wishing fireflies..." "Wishing fireflies... that's what they were called." "From long before the Tokugawa regime ended there is the story of a man... when he was young and full of hope..." "Head!" "What incredible swordplay!" "I can't believe he's only seventeen..." "Congratulations." "It's amazing..." "You won again!" "Even though Edo is huge..." "Ryunosuke!" "Were you really invited to perform an exhibition match in front of the shogun?" "I declined that offer." "How stupid." "W-Why did you do that?" "I am not satisfied with who I am now." "that feeling is getting stronger day by day." "much stronger." "I can't do it with a wooden sword..." "A samurai can never gain true strength unless he holds a real sword and fights risking his life." "That's my belief!" "You're already strong enough..." "I want to master everything." "I want ultimate strength to be mine." "You know her?" "She's my older sister." "I introduced you to her many times!" "Sister..." "We're going!" "Hurry up!" "wait!" "don't you get it at all?" "What?" "Do you know about the wishing fireflies?" "They say that if you pray for an entire year without missing a day the fireflies will grant your wish in early summer." "Fireflies will?" "My sister has been going there for two months now." "Ryunosuke." "The woman's name was Kinu." "The man hesitated." "he grew to gradually accept Kinu's feelings." "A faint light sparked inside the man who only knew the way of the sword." "Just like a firefly." "But soon after that came a fateful day when light and shadow switched places." "Thieves!" "get them!" "Damn you!" "It was a sword that moved like lightning." "The faces of the three men showed that they died instantaneously without even realizing they had died." "The man shivered." "This was ultimate swordsmanship." "The true face of combat can only be seen in that one moment when bodies collide and divide life from death." "the man killed a human for the first time." "It was the day after the incident... you're lying..." "Ryunosuke?" "I'm going to abandon this town." "I'll master that ultimate swordsmanship even if I stain this sword the color of blood!" "no!" "You can't!" "It's not right to kill!" "Out of my way!" "Please!" "If you're going to slay any more people... slay me!" "What do you know?" "Ryunosuke!" "From that day on... and kept slaying men." "He never focused his eyes on all the people he had slain." "on that ultimate swordsmanship." "This isn't it." "The swordsmanship I saw that night wasn't anything like this." "this is still not it!" "then fifteen years." "No good..." "I'm still far off..." "What am I missing?" "one evening after twenty-one years... and even had considered suicide." "A thief!" "help!" "It's him!" "someone he could never forget." "he had drawn his sword." "without feeling any pain." "The man realized he had surpassed that ultimate swordsmanship long ago." "that's not it the ultimate swordsmanship never existed." "He realized that what he saw in the storm was an illusion that resided in the shadows of his heart..." "It was as if the man awoke from a long dream." "all those lives he had taken began to weigh down upon him." "How..." "How can I repent?" "Someone... tell me!" "Tell me!" "tell me!" "Tell me!" "Tell me!" "Tell me!" "Tell me!" "Ryunosuke..." "Ryunosuke..." "Ryunosuke..." "It's finally over..." "The long journey of your soul..." "I've been waiting for you..." "For all this time..." "The man had returned to that place he had left twenty-one years before." "A traveler?" "Have you heard the story of the wishing fireflies?" "S-Shinpachi!" "My older sister was waiting for someone here." "She believed that he would return someday..." "She waited here every day for twenty years." "Today is the anniversary of her death." "Ryunosuke." "We'll never part again ever..." "That is the story of the wishing fireflies..." "A story several decades old..." "Wishing fireflies... now..." "When did it get so late?" "Are you going home?" "now!" "Please come again tomorrow!" "Promise!" "One thing... that I do." "Does that man currently regret how he lived his life?" "he can't ever go back." "However..." "He now believes each man may meet one woman in his life that he can never forget." "I just wanted to let the glimmer of life from that woman... rest on someone else's heart and not just my own." "I thank you for keeping me company during this long story." "I won't see you again." "Kenshin!" "Kenshin?" "nothing..." "Were you able to catch any fish?" "Sorry... not even one." "It's all right." "Dr. Gensai came by and brought us food." "right?" "Let's have dinner!" "dinner!" "ciao." "ciao." "250)}A thunderclap like a lion's growl... 250)}It's urging me to retreat... 250)}What's going to happen?" "250)}Yes... 250)}Soon it will rain." "ciao." "ciao" "250)}The moment when ectasy turns into farewells... it's obvious... 250)}It's gonna rain!" "250)}Is the rain now going to destroy my alibi?" "250)}Is he going to forget now?" "250)}Is this really the end for the two of us?" "250)}I'll just blame everything on the rain."
