00:01.600 --> 00:06.560
GENJI YEAR 1 (1864)

00:01.770 --> 00:04.400
The shogunate is just
a rotting carcass at this point.

00:04.400 --> 00:07.560
Now is the time for us samurai to rise up!

00:07.560 --> 00:10.350
Keep it down. Someone might hear you!

00:11.400 --> 00:12.560
Who goes there?!

00:17.520 --> 00:19.980
Hey! What do you think you're doing?!

00:35.190 --> 00:39.100
I brandished my blade
and yet you chose to flap your gums.

00:39.100 --> 00:40.900
You're tainted.

00:46.940 --> 00:47.730
Damn yo-!

00:56.940 --> 01:00.020
Tainted to the bone.

02:45.270 --> 02:47.060
What is it, Nomari?

02:47.770 --> 02:50.350
I thought you were joking

02:50.350 --> 02:54.770
when you came in here with Nomari-chan
and said she was your daughter,

02:54.770 --> 02:56.850
but you're like a seasoned dad now.

02:56.850 --> 02:59.350
Hey, pal. Can I talk with ya for a minute?

02:59.900 --> 03:02.350
Sorry for borrowing the bedroom.

03:02.350 --> 03:05.310
Oh, no! That's not a problem at all.

03:07.770 --> 03:09.850
How can I put this?

03:09.850 --> 03:12.480
There's a visitor here to see you....

03:14.150 --> 03:16.190
Okay. I'm coming.

03:24.230 --> 03:26.310
Ah, Jinya-dono!

03:26.310 --> 03:29.100
My apologies for the abrupt visit.

03:29.560 --> 03:31.980
Hatakeyama-dono.

03:31.980 --> 03:36.100
It's been some time.
I'm glad to see you're in good health.

03:37.100 --> 03:40.600
Oh my. Is that baby yours, Jinya-dono?

03:40.600 --> 03:42.190
Why are you here?

03:42.190 --> 03:44.980
Men of your standing don't visit
podunk soba shops like this.

03:44.980 --> 03:48.940
There's only one reason
to call upon the famous demon hunter.

03:48.940 --> 03:51.060
Isn't it obvious?

03:51.060 --> 03:54.520
There is a demon I need you to slay.

03:58.480 --> 04:00.810
The demon's name is Kiichi Okada.

04:00.810 --> 04:05.400
Until recently, he has served in my employ
to help rid our country of the barbarians.

04:05.400 --> 04:09.400
He's the most skilled warrior
among my ranks by far.

04:09.400 --> 04:12.480
But we've had a bit of a problem, you see.

04:12.900 --> 04:14.230
And what's that?

04:14.230 --> 04:15.310
Regretfully,

04:15.310 --> 04:19.650
Kiichi developed a bad habit of attacking
people aside from our adversaries.

04:19.650 --> 04:22.400
He's killed several of our
samurai comrades in arms

04:22.400 --> 04:24.850
and even women and children.

04:24.850 --> 04:27.730
He's nothing more than a murderer now.

04:27.980 --> 04:30.730
It's gotten to the point
I cannot ignore it.

04:30.730 --> 04:33.850
But I doubt he can be reasoned with,

04:33.850 --> 04:37.190
nor do I have any warriors skilled
enough to take him down.

04:37.190 --> 04:40.020
That's where you came to mind.

04:40.440 --> 04:43.770
I'm not here to ask you
to wield your blade on my behalf.

04:43.980 --> 04:47.770
I merely wish for you to stop him
and prevent any more casualties.

04:47.770 --> 04:52.850
Would you be willing to help me out,
just this one time?

04:54.350 --> 04:56.100
I don't understand.

04:56.100 --> 04:58.690
Kiichi's objective, you mean?

04:58.690 --> 05:00.940
Your objective, actually.

05:00.940 --> 05:02.940
You have that Tsuchiura fellow.

05:02.940 --> 05:05.900
Why not just order a demon already
under your command to take care of him?

05:06.150 --> 05:09.100
Because he and Kiichi are comrades.

05:09.100 --> 05:12.020
I cannot ask him to put an end
to one of his own.

05:13.480 --> 05:15.020
What do you say?

05:15.020 --> 05:18.150
Will you take on this task for me?

05:20.520 --> 05:22.810
I want to be clear on one thing.

05:22.810 --> 05:25.730
You're sure this murderer is a demon?

05:25.900 --> 05:26.810
Yes.

05:26.810 --> 05:29.600
He is a lesser demon
without any special power.

05:29.600 --> 05:31.770
However, his skill
with a blade is so great

05:31.770 --> 05:34.730
that he can rival even
superior demons in battle.

05:34.730 --> 05:37.600
Dealing with him will prove tricky.

05:39.100 --> 05:41.980
You can't decide right away, I suppose.

05:41.980 --> 05:44.190
Then, how about this?

05:44.350 --> 05:48.310
I shall make it so Kiichi visits
the Edobashi bridge tomorrow night.

05:48.310 --> 05:51.650
If you decide to accept the job,
then simply go there.

05:51.650 --> 05:55.270
Otherwise, you're free to refuse
and ignore the situation entirely.

05:58.770 --> 06:01.440
Well, I'll be going now.

06:02.440 --> 06:04.190
Yasuhide Hatakeyama.

06:05.400 --> 06:08.020
What is going through your mind?

06:08.020 --> 06:10.440
That's simple. The fate of this country.

06:10.440 --> 06:13.060
And all the samurai who live in it.

06:20.230 --> 06:22.100
Look, Tsuchiura.

06:22.100 --> 06:24.770
Isn't this katana just superb?

06:24.770 --> 06:26.690
Yes, I suppose...

06:28.690 --> 06:30.980
Kadono, was it?

06:30.980 --> 06:36.400
It lives up to its reputation as the home
of Japan's most distinguished blacksmiths.

06:36.400 --> 06:38.600
Their blades are truly something else.

06:42.600 --> 06:45.270
You have an eye for quality,
Hatakeyama-dono.

06:45.900 --> 06:48.850
Swords from Kadono are pure and untainted.

06:48.850 --> 06:52.650
"Masterpiece" is truly
the only word to describe them.

06:52.980 --> 06:55.770
Kiichi. So, you've returned.

06:55.770 --> 06:58.440
I did as you ordered.

06:58.440 --> 07:01.020
Those "skilled" samurai
plotting against the shogunate?

07:01.020 --> 07:03.980
They were hardly worth
the effort of killing.

07:04.310 --> 07:07.940
Yet I get the impression
you greatly enjoyed yourself.

07:09.810 --> 07:12.150
I'm a killer to the core.

07:12.150 --> 07:15.730
It only makes sense for me
to indulge in all forms of slaughter.

07:15.730 --> 07:17.900
Did you kill more people
other than your targets?

07:17.900 --> 07:19.100
You scumbag!

07:19.100 --> 07:22.650
Why, Tsuchiura?
You got a problem with me?

07:22.650 --> 07:24.100
Of course!

07:24.100 --> 07:28.730
Your indulgence in such senseless violence
will only bring trouble for Lord Yasuhide!

07:29.020 --> 07:31.850
You're as tainted as ever, I see.

07:32.150 --> 07:33.480
I'm sure Hatakeyama-dono

07:33.480 --> 07:37.020
is more than happy to accept
whatever trouble that comes his way.

07:37.020 --> 07:39.100
Now then, Kiichi.

07:39.310 --> 07:41.270
I have a task for you.

07:41.270 --> 07:44.310
There is man who I'd like you to slay.

07:44.480 --> 07:45.690
All right.

07:45.940 --> 07:49.310
Who is it this time,
some ronin from Choshu?

07:49.480 --> 07:50.440
No.

07:50.440 --> 07:52.770
Someone who you will find
a worthy opponent.

07:54.190 --> 07:56.060
Perhaps you've heard of him?

07:56.060 --> 07:59.480
The fierce warrior in Edo
known as the demon hunter.

08:00.850 --> 08:02.190
Oh?

08:17.810 --> 08:19.770
Thanks as always.

08:19.770 --> 08:21.980
Think nothing of it.

08:22.440 --> 08:27.190
We both know you can't go around hunting
demons with Nomari-chan on your back.

08:32.440 --> 08:33.480
Chef?

08:34.440 --> 08:35.650
Dad?

08:37.900 --> 08:39.150
Hey, Dad!

08:39.150 --> 08:42.020
O-oh, sorry about that.

08:42.020 --> 08:43.650
I was just zoning out.

08:43.940 --> 08:46.100
Perhaps you should take a break.

08:46.400 --> 08:49.770
Can't making a living
if I don't keep working!

08:49.770 --> 08:50.940
But...

08:50.940 --> 08:52.650
Aw, don't fuss.

08:52.650 --> 08:54.730
I'll close the shop a little early today.

08:54.730 --> 08:56.060
Sound good?

08:58.270 --> 08:59.980
I'll leave my payment here.

09:00.810 --> 09:03.150
Can you wait a minute, Jinya-kun?

09:04.810 --> 09:06.690
Do you mind, Dad?

09:06.690 --> 09:08.480
Nope. Go ahead.

09:10.730 --> 09:13.060
Will you go out with me for a bit?

09:17.020 --> 09:19.600
Oh! How about this?

09:19.600 --> 09:22.060
Uh, I'm not sure.

09:22.230 --> 09:25.310
I don't even know what I would use it for.

09:25.520 --> 09:28.650
I thought it might work
as a bowl for Nomari-chan.

09:28.650 --> 09:31.020
You know, since the ones
at our shop are too big.

09:31.190 --> 09:33.060
With a bowl like this handy,

09:33.060 --> 09:35.980
we can serve Nomari-chan
small helpings of soba.

09:36.480 --> 09:39.440
I figure she'll need one eventually.

09:39.440 --> 09:40.940
Am I being a bother?

09:40.940 --> 09:42.150
Far from it.

09:42.150 --> 09:44.810
I'm not smart enough
to think that far ahead.

09:44.810 --> 09:46.310
Sorry to burden you.

09:46.310 --> 09:47.730
Not at all.

09:47.730 --> 09:50.770
We need to look after
our precious regulars, after all!

09:50.770 --> 09:52.560
Okay, I'll go buy this.

09:53.020 --> 09:54.440
Wait, let me pay...

09:55.600 --> 09:56.810
Thank you.

09:58.980 --> 10:00.650
Good for you, huh?

10:17.400 --> 10:19.900
I haven't been by here in a long time.

10:20.150 --> 10:21.520
How about that.

10:21.520 --> 10:23.980
The snow willow season is already here.

10:24.190 --> 10:25.270
Yep.

10:25.270 --> 10:27.520
The flowers are as beautiful as ever.

10:28.230 --> 10:32.400
Are you sure you shouldn't have stayed
to watch after your dad?

10:32.400 --> 10:35.810
It's all right. He's not sick or anything.

10:36.440 --> 10:40.480
Besides, I'm more concerned
about you right now.

10:42.190 --> 10:43.770
Sorry.

10:43.770 --> 10:46.150
I overheard your conversation.

10:46.150 --> 10:49.440
You're hesitant to take on
that job tonight, aren't you?

10:52.730 --> 10:57.770
Yasuhide Hatakeyama's explanation of the
situation doesn't really make sense to me.

10:57.770 --> 11:00.020
If one of his men has gone off the rails,

11:00.020 --> 11:03.730
then it's best to keep that under wraps
and deal with it among his inner circle.

11:03.730 --> 11:05.850
He must be plotting something.

11:05.850 --> 11:08.150
So, what are you going to do?

11:08.150 --> 11:10.190
Well, it's not really a question.

11:10.190 --> 11:14.940
I can't just let a deranged killer
run loose on the streets.

11:14.940 --> 11:15.810
That said...

11:16.440 --> 11:18.560
I must admit I'm at a loss.

11:20.440 --> 11:25.480
No matter what he's plotting,
it has no bearing on my goals.

11:25.480 --> 11:30.980
However, my gut reaction to hearing about
this killer was that I had to go stop him.

11:30.980 --> 11:33.650
I'm unsure of myself
for thinking that way.

11:34.560 --> 11:38.150
Maybe... I've gotten weak.

11:41.230 --> 11:42.560
What's so funny?

11:42.560 --> 11:45.310
Well, I don't think
anything that I say now

11:45.310 --> 11:48.400
will come off as
a satisfying answer to you.

11:48.900 --> 11:53.520
But please keep this "weakness"
you have in mind, okay?

11:53.980 --> 11:58.350
Because I'm pretty sure that a day
will come when you actually hold it dear.

12:05.480 --> 12:06.980
I should get going.

12:08.980 --> 12:10.520
Watch her for me.

12:11.270 --> 12:12.560
Safe travels.

12:13.940 --> 12:16.400
Yeah. See you later.

12:41.400 --> 12:43.770
You must be Kiichi Okada-dono.

12:43.770 --> 12:46.520
Indeed. And you are?

12:46.770 --> 12:49.770
A ronin who lives in Fukugawa.
My name is Jinya.

12:50.100 --> 12:53.190
I have made my way here
to cross blades with you in battle.

12:53.310 --> 12:57.020
Oh really? I'm honored you'd bother.

13:09.650 --> 13:12.270
Heh! You're pretty good!

13:17.770 --> 13:20.100
Although, I can tell you're tainted.

13:35.020 --> 13:37.730
I see. You are quite tough.

13:37.730 --> 13:41.400
Your physical abilities
far surpass that of my own.

13:41.980 --> 13:43.400
He's deadly.

13:43.400 --> 13:45.980
In a pure battle of skill, I would only
have a one-in-five chance of winning...

13:45.980 --> 13:48.350
no, one-in-ten!

13:48.350 --> 13:50.440
Yet, you are tainted.

13:50.850 --> 13:52.060
So be it.

13:52.060 --> 13:54.230
I'll just have to resort to other tactics.

13:57.650 --> 13:59.020
Excessive force.

14:00.770 --> 14:02.230
Superfluous moves.

14:07.100 --> 14:08.810
Wavering conviction.

14:19.560 --> 14:22.230
Tainted through and through.

14:22.230 --> 14:26.900
You're far too inefficient.
Both in mind and body.

14:27.560 --> 14:29.810
For what purpose do you kill?

14:30.270 --> 14:32.400
When I heard about your string of murders,

14:32.400 --> 14:37.770
I imagined Kiichi Okada
to be a sadistic man of violence.

14:38.060 --> 14:40.730
Yet your swordsmanship reflects integrity.

14:40.730 --> 14:42.560
That's not something easily obtained,

14:42.560 --> 14:46.400
as it takes years of tedious training
that most men would tire of.

14:46.400 --> 14:49.440
How does one so sincerely devoted
to the way of the blade

14:49.440 --> 14:51.770
become enthralled with death?!

14:51.980 --> 14:54.940
That's silly. I turn the question to you.

14:54.940 --> 14:56.560
Why avoid killing?

14:57.020 --> 14:59.520
Katana are tools of death.

14:59.520 --> 15:02.690
Thus I fail to understand
the point of your question.

15:03.020 --> 15:08.060
To make truly solid steel, one must first
remove all the impurities from it.

15:08.350 --> 15:12.270
To make truly delicious sake, one must
use water clean enough to see through.

15:12.270 --> 15:15.060
And we are no different.

15:16.480 --> 15:18.730
Any excess creates impurity.

15:18.730 --> 15:21.520
Therefore, it must all be scraped away.

15:21.520 --> 15:23.480
Don't you agree?

15:23.770 --> 15:27.400
Or will you stand there
and call me a "scumbag" too?

15:27.810 --> 15:31.850
No, I have the blood of many demons
on my hands who I consumed

15:31.850 --> 15:34.020
to make their power my own.

15:34.020 --> 15:35.770
Because I believed growing stronger

15:35.770 --> 15:39.690
would allow me to swing my blade
with total conviction.

15:39.690 --> 15:43.190
Then tell me,
why is your blade so tainted?

15:43.480 --> 15:46.020
I live to fulfill my goal
and nothing more.

15:46.020 --> 15:47.600
Or so I thought.

15:48.150 --> 15:51.350
Actually, that's still the mindset
I want to strive for in the future.

15:52.190 --> 15:53.270
Except...

15:53.270 --> 15:56.020
I find myself dealing with extra baggage.

15:56.020 --> 15:58.480
Even now, I'm deviating
from my intended path.

15:58.480 --> 16:01.940
And fighting on behalf
of what you describe as "excess."

16:10.400 --> 16:13.940
So what's your story,
you just took up the blade for no reason?

16:14.060 --> 16:19.190
I was born to a samurai family.
Hence I was raised to wield the blade.

16:19.190 --> 16:21.940
But the only way
to wield it is by killing.

16:21.940 --> 16:26.440
Many people met their ends at my hands
until I finally realized.

16:26.810 --> 16:29.440
Whilst one must live as a samurai
to be permitted a blade,

16:29.440 --> 16:32.650
adhering to the bushido code
is actually the biggest obstacle

16:32.650 --> 16:34.400
to cutting people down.

16:34.400 --> 16:39.730
Loyalty, honor,
faith, respect, morality...

16:39.730 --> 16:43.600
Those who attach such folly
to their blade are tainted.

16:45.690 --> 16:49.560
Therefore, I disposed
of the warrior within me.

16:49.730 --> 16:54.440
I cut off my mentors,
cut off my family, cut off my friends...

16:54.440 --> 16:57.600
and so much more
that I can't even remember!

16:59.940 --> 17:03.730
Apparently, those who go to
such extremes are no longer "human."

17:03.730 --> 17:06.940
I'd turned into a demon
without even knowing it.

17:07.650 --> 17:10.520
So, your pursuit of enlightenment
led you to demonic depths.

17:10.810 --> 17:14.270
Why do I kill?
That's what you wanted to know, right?

17:14.270 --> 17:15.850
Here is my answer.

17:15.850 --> 17:19.060
I cast aside my humanity
to become a demon

17:19.060 --> 17:22.520
and now kill in a quest
for supreme swordsmanship.

17:22.980 --> 17:25.100
I have lived by the sword.

17:25.100 --> 17:29.980
Thus my life only has meaning by killing
until my very soul has become steel.

17:30.270 --> 17:32.600
I see.

17:35.810 --> 17:38.400
Is question time over now?

17:39.100 --> 17:40.310
Yes.

17:40.980 --> 17:42.850
Let me be frank.

17:42.850 --> 17:45.940
Your way of life is radiant to my eyes.

17:45.940 --> 17:48.150
I would even consider myself envious.

17:48.850 --> 17:51.480
So, let us continue.

17:54.730 --> 17:56.810
Oh? You won't flee?

17:56.810 --> 17:57.900
Naturally.

17:58.150 --> 18:02.020
After hearing your story, I've made up
my mind to cut you down at any cost.

18:02.020 --> 18:04.900
The ring of your tone is rather pristine.

18:04.900 --> 18:06.480
You've sparked my interest.

18:57.270 --> 18:58.560
Impressive!

18:58.560 --> 19:00.690
I rarely come across such prowess.

19:08.190 --> 19:10.650
Where are you... going?

19:12.400 --> 19:16.850
You've won. Why not kill me?

19:17.770 --> 19:22.060
Duels between samurai only end
when one claims the life of the other.

19:22.060 --> 19:26.730
We both still live.
There can be no winner or loser here.

19:27.020 --> 19:28.270
Still...

19:28.690 --> 19:30.900
you managed to cut me.

19:30.900 --> 19:34.980
Despite being steeped in excess that
taints you, your swordsmanship is sharp.

19:35.400 --> 19:39.440
I greatly enjoyed fighting against
such a contradictory warrior.

19:39.440 --> 19:42.980
Let us duke it out again someday.

19:43.310 --> 19:46.600
And when that time comes,
I look forward to seeing the answer

19:46.600 --> 19:49.730
that your tainted blade will offer me.

20:16.980 --> 20:18.480
How about that?

20:18.480 --> 20:20.350
I really can hold my own.

20:29.600 --> 20:35.350
HEISEI YEAR 21 (2009)

20:40.150 --> 20:44.150
<b>AYE-AYE MART</b>

20:44.190 --> 20:46.400
Hey, boss! Reporting for duty!

20:46.810 --> 20:48.600
Ah, Miyaka-kun.

20:48.900 --> 20:50.480
You're here early.

20:50.480 --> 20:52.100
I rushed over from school.

20:52.440 --> 20:54.190
Well, please get to stocking.

20:54.190 --> 20:55.400
Roger!

21:00.600 --> 21:01.730
Welcome to Ay-

21:02.350 --> 21:05.020
Miyaka-chan!
Hope you're ready for some fun!

21:05.020 --> 21:06.560
We came to bother you.

21:06.560 --> 21:08.900
Oh, quit it! You're embarrassing me.

21:08.900 --> 21:11.810
Jeez, you two are really buddy-buddy, huh?

21:12.900 --> 21:15.770
Well, yeah.
We go back a long time, ya know!

21:15.770 --> 21:17.230
Really?

21:17.230 --> 21:19.770
Yeah. More than a hundred years, actually!

21:17.230 --> 21:25.650
<b>Fresh</b>

21:17.230 --> 21:25.650
<b>Vegetables</b>

21:19.770 --> 21:20.770
Huh?

21:23.060 --> 21:25.690
That wasn't even close to funny, Kaoru.

21:25.900 --> 21:28.900
Aww, but I wasn't joking!

21:29.310 --> 21:30.810
KIRABOSHI SAKE

21:30.850 --> 21:32.560
Welcome in, sir.

21:32.940 --> 21:35.770
It's still weird.
Hearing polite words out that mouth.

21:37.310 --> 21:39.770
You're ever the snarky one.

21:39.770 --> 21:42.060
Then let me adjust my attitude.

21:42.520 --> 21:45.400
Sounds good.
I would prefer that, honestly.

21:45.400 --> 21:49.650
It's not very smart to buy booze while
parading as a student, if you ask me.

21:49.650 --> 21:53.560
Don't give me that.
This is the only place I can get any.

21:53.560 --> 21:56.600
This actor has been
all over the place lately.

21:56.810 --> 21:59.440
Oh, yeah, I love him!

21:59.440 --> 22:00.310
He's great!

21:59.440 --> 22:00.310
Must be fun for you.

22:00.310 --> 22:01.230
Really?

22:00.310 --> 22:01.230
Must be fun for you.

22:01.230 --> 22:02.900
But I thought you liked that other one.

22:01.230 --> 22:02.900
Living it up as a high schooler.

22:02.900 --> 22:03.650
Well, yeah, I have a bunch of favorites.

22:02.900 --> 22:03.650
Living it up as a high schooler.

22:03.650 --> 22:04.350
Well, yeah, I have a bunch of favorites.

22:03.650 --> 22:04.350
Right back at you.

22:04.350 --> 22:05.190
Like this guy!

22:04.350 --> 22:05.190
Right back at you.

22:05.190 --> 22:05.560
Like this guy!

22:05.190 --> 22:05.560
You seem very at home as a store manager.

22:05.560 --> 22:07.600
You seem very at home as a store manager.

22:07.810 --> 22:12.310
I only took up the job to make a living,
but it has its moments.

22:12.310 --> 22:14.850
I consider it rather fun.

22:14.850 --> 22:16.850
Yet still excessive.

22:17.190 --> 22:20.350
Some things I can't change,
no matter how much time passes.

22:20.600 --> 22:22.060
And what about you?

22:22.060 --> 22:25.520
Have you found any meaning
in that tainted blade of yours?

22:25.520 --> 22:26.560
Hold up, I've never

22:26.560 --> 22:27.900
seen an outfit this cute before!

22:26.560 --> 22:27.900
You've always been my ideal.

22:27.900 --> 22:28.770
Hm? Let me see.

22:27.900 --> 22:28.770
You've always been my ideal.

22:28.770 --> 22:29.730
Whoa, you're right!

22:28.770 --> 22:29.730
Then and now.

22:29.730 --> 22:30.480
Told you!

22:29.730 --> 22:30.480
Then and now.

22:30.770 --> 22:34.650
Cutting everything off
and devoting yourself to a single notion.

22:34.650 --> 22:38.900
That way of living seemed so pure,
I couldn't help but admire you.

22:39.400 --> 22:43.230
However, I've lived
for quite some time now.

22:43.230 --> 22:45.400
I lost many things along the way,

22:45.400 --> 22:47.850
but a small part of them
always stayed with me.

22:48.690 --> 22:51.810
That extra baggage throws me off
each time I've had to shoulder it,

22:51.810 --> 22:54.020
so it makes sense I seem tainted to you.

22:54.520 --> 22:57.690
But no matter how excessive it was,

22:57.690 --> 22:59.480
none of it was meaningless.

22:59.480 --> 23:01.600
I still believe that even now.

23:04.150 --> 23:06.440
Asagao! We should get going soon.

23:06.440 --> 23:07.350
Huh?

23:07.350 --> 23:08.940
Oh, you're right.

23:10.270 --> 23:11.770
Bye bye, Miyaka-chan.

23:12.440 --> 23:13.730
Good luck with work!

23:13.730 --> 23:14.060
Later.

23:14.060 --> 23:14.690
Later.

23:14.060 --> 23:14.690
Oh, that's right.

23:14.690 --> 23:15.440
Oh, that's right.

23:15.440 --> 23:17.020
I forgot to mention...

23:17.230 --> 23:20.350
my tainted blade certainly does
have a dull edge.

23:20.350 --> 23:23.770
But thankfully, that also means
it doesn't cut through everything.

23:24.310 --> 23:26.520
And that's my answer.

23:30.770 --> 23:33.650
It doesn't get
any more contradictory than that.

23:36.520 --> 23:38.230
Uh, boss?
