"[GinTama]" "[Benizakura Arc]" "[Final Episode]" "[Yeah]" "[Yeah]" "Insects Are Drawn To The Light"]" "I perceived a light too faint for the eyes to see." "I don't recall when I learned that the light radiated from human beings." "just before they die." "But there are a few who shine just as bright while they're alive." "and tinged with sad colors." "like moths to a flame." "I could never live in darkness again." "am a moth." "A moth who fears losing his beacon." "who struggles desperately to avoid being swallowed up by that fiery beacon of light." "Moths guided by that beacon's flame." "There are moths everywhere... there is an odd one among us." "This one is not a moth." "but it emits a very faint light." "It gleams like a sword-a cold steel blade drawn from its sheath." "It's glint is sharp..." "Silver." "But why is it..." "I just can't... stand its color!" "Here I thought it was just some random punks barging in to interrupt our work..." "Who'd imagine you were one of them?" "Did you come to rob the place?" "What can you do in your condition?" "Have you grown so crazy that you don't even know what you're doing?" "You don't look so hot yourself." "You're pale." "Got a stomachache or something?" "Is it diarrhea?" "You're the one with diarrhea." "what's the matter?" "You're bleeding." "what's the matter?" "You're bleeding." "look." "Gintoki's shown up." "Looks like he's about to take on Benizakura." "He's as foolish as ever." "It's like taking on a battleship with a rolling pin." "He no longer moves like a human." "His body is crying out because it can't keep up with the Benizakura's commands." "That man is going to die." "You knew... what would happen if he used the Benizakura." "You were his comrade." "Don't you feel anything?" "He chose to do that on his own." "he gets his wish." "Gets his wish?" "That's right!" "That man truly wished to become a sword!" "his beacon light!" "He'd rather fly into the fire than return to darkness." "He wanted the power to grow." "His eyes have been blinded by light-he can't see anything else." "How sad and foolish..." "But inside him is a beauty that transcends good and evil... there is beauty!" "Swords kill." "Master smiths forge swords." "What then... are samurai?" "flexible and beautiful." "Just like this." "They're simpletons." "But I don't hate them." "can see only a single path before my eyes." "I don't care if my comrades or anyone falls by the wayside." "What's so beautiful about bloodshed?" "Are you saying that's the goal of your art?" "Enough of this." "I don't want to see blood spilt by a sword my brother made." "Then why did you bring that man here?" "!" "It's as if you brought him here to be killed!" "And with that dull blade of yours." "You think he can defeat the Benizaka?" "I-Impossible!" "He's matched against Benizakura..." "No!" "He's even stronger?" "!" "It can't be..." "Benizakura's been draining Nizo's strength and accumulating data to discover its opponent's weaknesses." "Benizakura's should be several levels higher." "...It can't be." "That man..." "He's improving faster than the Benizakura?" "!" "that's...!" "In the midst of an extreme fight to the death... have the memories of past battles lying dormant deep inside his body been awakened?" "It's the White Knight!" "It won't go out." "No matter how many times I try to extinguish it." "That annoying light won't go out... but it seems this is your first fight with a real sword." "You're shaking." "This is called the Drunken Sword." "[Note:" "Spoof of that Jackie Chan movie] the stronger I..." "Don't force yourself." "my sword style is called Shimura-Ken." "It's what that comedian often uses in his skits." "too?" "!" "so I usually leave these matters to that wild boar woman." "Who're you calling a wild boar?" "!" "Want me to shoot a slug into those lame chicken legs?" "Senpai!" "It's kill or be killed!" "Gotcha!" "You can't move in mid-air." "Die!" "Got her!" "little girl!" "Gin-san!" "Gin-chan." "Wh..." "What?" "!" "What the hell is this?" "Nizo-san?" "I'm not good at this sort of thing." "Senpai!" "Nizo!" "Have you lost your mind?" "!" "He's conscious..." "He's being controlled by the Benizakura." "my nasty premonition hit the bullseye!" "Nizo!" "He's been completely overwhelmed by the Benizakura!" "Nizo has lost all sense of self." "His entire body has transformed into a sword!" "Not even the White Knight can stop him now!" "That is the Benizakura's final form." "The ultimate sword!" "Such power comes only to those who discarded all meaningless distractions from their lives and devote themselves to a single goal." "can ever stop him!" "Gin-san!" "Gin-chan!" "Won't..." "That annoying light... won't go out..." "Tetsuko!" "I won't let him die!" "I won't let you kill him!" "I won't let that sword destroy any more lives!" "You!" "Let that mop head go!" "What the?" "!" "Let him go!" "Why..." "Why?" "Why can't you understand?" "I've given everything I have to create the Benizakura." "Discarded every shred of conscience and restraint." "then I'll have nothing left." "We suffered a real loss." "No one else will ever be able to create swords like he did." "I heard he has a son." "How good is he?" "He's no good. he'd have no problem making a living with his craft." "From that day on... but you possess something Tetsuya does not." "I hope he understands that someday." "I completely devoted my life to swordsmithing." "I put my craft before everything else." "I don't need anyone..." "I don't need anything but the sword." "It's everything to me." "There's nothing else in my life..." "Tetsuko!" "Brother!" "Gin-san!" "Gin-chan!" "Brother!" "Pull yourself together!" "Brother!" "Brother..." "Now it makes sense..." "I thought I had forsaken everything in my life but the sword." "I tried to live my life...not as a human being...but as a swordsmith... living only to create swords. you were the one thing..." "I couldn't give up... there was no way I could forge the ultimate sword." "Nothing is meaningless!" "Everything matters." "Devoting your life solely to making swords?" "Is that what a craftsman does?" "Those are noble words." "But you just don't want to be bothered." "Don't call yourself a craftsman when you don't even have... the courage to shoulder the trials of life." "Watch." "See how powerful the things you call meaningless can be." "Take a good look at this blade your sister forged and see how well it cuts." "Gin-san!" "That's impossible!" "You can't take the Benizakura head on." "Gin-chan!" "swords are made for killing people." "no matter how much heart and soul you put into it." "But that's no reason for us to stop wielding our hammer." "We'd go hungry." "it's not just that." "We are creating more than just weapons." "That's why we have to keep on hammering at it over and over." "but our very own souls." "You hammer your soul into shape just as you hammer the iron." "Become a gentle person with integrity." "Live your life beautifully. those who would use your swords with decency will be drawn to you." "What sort of sword do you want to forge?" "A sword that protects." "Huh?" "I can't hear you." "A sword that protects people." "It's too...bright..." "Tetsuko." "It would seem I haven't hammered long enough..." "Tetsuko..." "Become a good... swordsmi..." "I can't hear you..." "Brother..." "You have to tell me the way you always do...in your loud voice..." "I can't hear you." "or now." "But you were my comrade." "and now." "When did it all begin?" "When did our paths diverge?" "Hmph." "What're you talking about?" "It's true that the two of us started in the same place. we were heading in different directions." "Everyone is doing as they please." "We've all lived our lives... looking towards different directions." "Nothing in me has changed since then." "What I look towards now hasn't changed a bit." "I... we've done all we can do!" "We can't hold out any longer!" "[For real?" "]" "Katsura-san is still..." "What are those battleships?" "Are they our allies coming to help?" "No...that flag is..." "Th-That can't be!" "What're they doing here?" "!" "It's the Harusame!" "The Harusame space pirates! I could've cared less." "Think about it." "Who was it that taught us how to use that sword you're holding?" "how to survive and other things?" "the man who made us the men we are was..." "Shoyo Sensei." "But this new world... took him away from us." "then our only choice is to fight this world." "To squash the world that took away our master." "what do you think about as you live in this world?" "How can we live comfortably and relish life in the world that took our master away from us?" "It makes me angry to no end." "Takasugi..." "You don't know how many times I've thought about wiping out this world clean slate." "But when I see Gintoki bearing it..." "When I see... what can I do?" "I can no longer destroy this country." "I now have... too many precious things here I care about." "all I see is someone who can't sheathe his sword." "You've become just a wild beast that enjoys destruction." "then destroy it." "But I won't just stand and watch you destroy the people I care for." "There must be another way." "Other ways to change this country without costly sacrifices." "I'm sure that's what Shoyo Sensei would have wanted." "It's Katsura." "It's really Katsura." "Stay back." "He's mine." "Amanto?" "!" "I heard about you." "That you and Gintoki beat up the Harusame." "I was trying to link up with them to gain their backing." "I think it'll go well." "When I present them with your head." "Takasugi!" "I told you..." "I will destroy this rotten world." "Why are the Harusame here?" "!" "[Who knows?" "!" "]" "That damn Takasugi joined forces with the Amanto to destroy the Bakufu!" "Bansai-dono..." "We were told we could take the heads of Katsura and that other samurai." "Bansai-dono?" "Bansai-dono?" "Terakado..." "Not that!" "What I just said!" "Who's this guy?" "Why'd they send him to negotiate?" "!" "No need to worry." "They're probably just small fries that Katsura brought with him." "They'll be taken care of very quickly." "Move..." "You're in the way!" "Odd Jobs Gin-chan coming through!" "Ow ow." "You guys sure are full of spirit." "Ack..." "What's that?" "!" "No mistake!" "It's that samurai..." "Out of my wayI I'm in a bad mood!" "Katsura-san!" "Zura." "What's with the new hair?" "Somebody break your heart or something?" "Shut up." "It's a new look." "What about you?" "Get hit by a bomb?" "Shut up." "It's a new look." "You call that a look?" "Katsura-san!" "Your orders." "Retreat." "What?" "!" "The Benizakura's been destroyed." "There's another ship behind us." "Hurry." "You're not getting away!" "Hunt down and kill every last one of them!" "We'll secure your escape route." "Go." "But...!" "Gin-chan!" "Lizzie!" "Gin-chan!" "Go!" "Take their heads!" "D-Don't back down!" "Push forward!" "Forward!" "Don't give them any openings!" "So they're Gintoki Sakata and Kotaro Katsura..." "They're strong..." "I'd like to face them someday." "Gintoki!" "Huh?" "does it?" "much less a country!" "you mean you had a friend?" "Stop fantasizing!" "You want me to kill you?" "!" "Gintoki!" "Huh?" "okay." "It would take a lot of mettle to kill you." "I wouldn't take the job." "I'll be the first one there to take you out." "Takasugi!" "This is how it is!" "it won't be as friends or comrades!" "We'll cut you down...with every ounce of our strength!" "So you better watch out." "Don't bump into us on the street!" "Farewell!" "Don't let them get away!" "Fire!" "Fire!" "That's being well-prepared." "Are you Lupin or something?" "[Note:" "Refers to the anime character Lupin III.]" "I mean Katsura." "There's a reason why I've been able to give the Shinsengumi the slip all this time." "too." "We all started at the same place." "And yet..." "We're now worlds apart." "Gintoki..." "Do you remember this?" "Yeah..." "I tossed it after I spilled ramen on it." "["Even Mummy Hunters Sometimes Turn into Mummys"]" "What?" "You want me to kill the boss of Odd Jobs?" "!" "Hijikata-san!" "Yamazaki closes in.]" "thanks for the other day." "Let's go and have a drink of that with that.]"
