WEBVTT 00:09.270 --> 00:10.150 What's wrong? 00:10.940 --> 00:13.310 Nothing. I'm fine. 00:13.940 --> 00:16.020 I'm here to listen if you need to get something off your chest. 00:17.400 --> 00:18.400 All right. 00:19.560 --> 00:21.600 Then, hear me out... 00:29.400 --> 00:32.810 I'm in love with you. 00:46.560 --> 00:47.810 Why...? 00:52.230 --> 00:54.190 What is happening to me? 01:02.730 --> 01:04.520 Die, demon! 01:13.190 --> 01:16.400 The plan worked! Thanks for helping us kill this freak. 01:18.600 --> 01:19.810 C'mon. Let's go. 01:23.520 --> 01:26.770 I see. I've been betrayed. 01:27.560 --> 01:29.190 That she-devil is next! 01:29.190 --> 01:31.560 We should've done this a long time ago! 01:34.900 --> 01:39.560 So what if I'm bigger than most people? How is that reason enough to kill me? 01:40.310 --> 01:41.520 Why is this happening? 01:42.650 --> 01:44.310 Why do I have to die? 01:49.100 --> 01:51.350 No.... not here... 01:54.310 --> 01:59.100 I don't want to die. Not here! 03:33.900 --> 03:34.900 Look! 03:34.900 --> 03:36.810 What's going on?! 03:42.940 --> 03:44.730 It shouldn't come as a surprise. 03:45.520 --> 03:47.850 This is what you wanted, isn't it? 04:13.730 --> 04:15.150 You're not going to run? 04:15.900 --> 04:19.060 I'm scared, but I won't run. 04:19.900 --> 04:23.480 Because even as a demon, I know that you're still you. 04:58.850 --> 04:59.900 I'm sorry... 05:01.400 --> 05:07.600 I couldn't stand strong like you did... 05:26.190 --> 05:27.350 I was wrong. 05:49.020 --> 05:50.650 What did I just see? 05:51.980 --> 05:53.190 Well, damn. 05:53.560 --> 05:58.560 Guess I can't absorb your power when your mind is still intact. 06:00.350 --> 06:01.310 Suzune. 06:02.270 --> 06:05.150 So she's the reason why you fight, eh? 06:05.150 --> 06:08.900 Yes. I take it that you saw my memories as well? 06:09.940 --> 06:12.900 Seems like we're birds of a feather. 06:13.350 --> 06:14.310 Perhaps. 06:15.770 --> 06:17.480 You're not going to quit, are you? 06:18.190 --> 06:21.310 I wouldn't be a demon if I could exercise restraint. 06:22.100 --> 06:23.270 Good point. 06:23.980 --> 06:27.980 But no matter, you cannot overcome my indomitable body. 06:28.350 --> 06:30.230 Indomitable, huh? 06:37.350 --> 06:40.270 This is pointless. Stop being stupid. 06:40.900 --> 06:45.480 I remember Mosuke. His only wish was to live hidden from both demons and humans. 06:48.150 --> 06:53.310 And Hatsu. All she wanted was to return to her husband as quickly as possible. 07:01.770 --> 07:06.100 And Ofuu. She only wished to go back to her garden of happiness. 07:11.900 --> 07:16.190 And Yunagi. All she wanted was to keep a single emotion secret. 07:18.350 --> 07:21.850 Long ago, there was a demon who could see into the future. 07:22.230 --> 07:27.060 I imagine a need to change the doomed fate of demonkind is what gave her that power. 07:27.480 --> 07:30.650 But in spite of her wishes, she could only see the future. 07:31.350 --> 07:34.350 It was an ability known as "foresight". 07:35.440 --> 07:37.310 It's all clear to me now. 07:37.650 --> 07:41.440 The powers we demons have are not skills, but desires. 07:41.810 --> 07:44.730 Negative emotions are what transform humans into demons, 07:44.730 --> 07:47.770 but it's impossible wishes that furnish demons with power. 07:48.400 --> 07:53.600 Or rather, their obsession is the paint that covers their canvas of being. 07:54.400 --> 07:57.520 In which case, life will never go as they want. 07:59.190 --> 08:03.400 That's why I know. Strength isn't what you wished for at all. 08:04.060 --> 08:07.770 Tsuchiura. What made you desire that indomitable body? 08:07.770 --> 08:08.690 Shut up! 08:09.060 --> 08:14.190 Allow me to change the question. What is it you're fighting for? 08:17.980 --> 08:19.770 Trust me. 08:20.270 --> 08:24.730 Both demons and samurai are on the verge of being abandoned by the modern age. 08:25.440 --> 08:29.980 We are relics of the past. That makes us compatriots. 08:30.270 --> 08:33.900 There is no good reason that we cannot join forces. 08:35.810 --> 08:40.060 Master Yasuhide generously accepted me for the demon I am. 08:40.810 --> 08:43.230 My loyalty to him is everything. 08:43.810 --> 08:46.270 It's all that I have. 08:46.600 --> 08:48.770 No, there's more to your life than that. 08:49.690 --> 08:53.770 I figured you might be similar to me, but I was wrong. 08:54.520 --> 08:58.810 Tsuchiura. I'm fairly certain that you're stronger than I am. 08:59.440 --> 09:00.730 But I won't lose. 09:01.150 --> 09:06.270 You cast aside everything you had and obtained strength by making yourself believe in a lie. 09:06.900 --> 09:11.940 Whereas my weakness has made me hesitant to cast anything aside. So you'll never get the better of me! 09:12.770 --> 09:14.270 You're full of hot air. 09:14.600 --> 09:16.440 Act as tough as you want, 09:16.440 --> 09:19.020 you cannot bring any harm to me! 09:32.520 --> 09:33.520 Dart. 09:37.100 --> 09:40.520 Please forgive us. We're so sorry. Truly! 09:41.100 --> 09:43.230 Our daughter had no other choice! 09:43.230 --> 09:47.810 They threatened to ostracize our whole family unless she helped them lure you into their trap! 09:47.810 --> 09:48.440 Shut up! 09:48.440 --> 09:51.600 She really did love you! 09:51.600 --> 09:53.520 I said shut up! 09:56.770 --> 10:01.980 Yeah. It didn't matter if you were a demon or not. She believed in you wholeheartedly! 10:02.440 --> 10:04.100 No more! 10:04.980 --> 10:09.850 If I were indomitable, then I would never have to fear being hurt again. 10:10.850 --> 10:15.770 If I were indomitable, then I would never have to worry about facing death. 10:16.650 --> 10:18.730 If I were indomitable... 10:21.900 --> 10:25.230 then I could have fully believed in her. 10:35.940 --> 10:41.020 All I wanted... was someone to put my faith in... 10:57.190 --> 10:59.560 You're formidable. 11:00.560 --> 11:01.770 No, just weak. 11:02.400 --> 11:06.520 Tsuchiura. I think weakness is better for us in the end. 11:07.310 --> 11:11.520 We foolishly wanted to regain the things that we lost, which drove us into becoming demons. 11:12.480 --> 11:18.520 Our half-hearted attempts to gain power and spurn our weakness has trapped us on the wrong life path. 11:19.520 --> 11:21.520 But if our willpower had been a little weaker, 11:22.400 --> 11:25.350 then we could have simply died a respectable death. 11:26.190 --> 11:31.310 I see. We dug our graves in the wrong spot, huh? 11:31.770 --> 11:33.060 That sums it up. 11:33.520 --> 11:35.270 But this isn't so bad. 11:35.650 --> 11:39.400 I've recognized what my heart truly desired. 11:41.480 --> 11:43.900 Go on. Take my power. 11:44.520 --> 11:47.440 Although it was born from my pathetic obsession, 11:47.770 --> 11:50.020 it should prove handy at some point. 11:50.690 --> 11:53.100 I appreciate what you've done. 11:53.650 --> 11:58.600 Thank you for ending my life. This isn't the worst place to die. 12:01.350 --> 12:07.650 I'm sorry, Master Yasuhide. I was unable to grant your wish. 12:08.850 --> 12:14.440 It's strange. I can't bring myself to hate you, even as you consume me. 12:14.900 --> 12:18.770 Perhaps, if we had met under different circumstances... 12:19.190 --> 12:23.650 Yeah. We could've been fighting alongside each other instead. 12:26.150 --> 12:27.060 Exactly... 12:31.650 --> 12:32.560 Hey there! 12:33.150 --> 12:34.310 Welcome in! 12:34.600 --> 12:35.940 Took you long enough! 12:35.940 --> 12:37.850 Aw, gimme a break. 12:43.270 --> 12:45.310 Now then, shall we get going, Tsuchiura? 12:45.690 --> 12:46.560 Yeah. 12:49.690 --> 12:50.850 Safe travels! 12:52.900 --> 12:53.520 Thanks. 12:59.060 --> 13:00.060 Farewell. 13:14.560 --> 13:17.270 Ah, if it isn't Jinya-dono. 13:17.650 --> 13:19.600 Your being here can only mean one thing. 13:19.770 --> 13:23.940 Tsuchiura must be dead. Am I right? 13:24.520 --> 13:25.440 Yes. 13:25.940 --> 13:27.270 I see. 13:29.770 --> 13:33.600 Without Tsuchiura on my side, I have no more moves to play. 13:33.900 --> 13:36.100 Checkmate, it would seem. 13:37.150 --> 13:38.310 That's right. 13:39.100 --> 13:41.900 And so, I've come to grant your wish. 13:42.940 --> 13:45.850 My wish, you say? 13:46.400 --> 13:49.850 Yes. I defeated Tsuchiura and consumed him. 13:50.310 --> 13:53.940 It's only fair that I take up the responsibility he left behind. 13:54.400 --> 13:58.020 Does that mean you will serve in his stead? 13:58.400 --> 13:59.190 No. 13:59.480 --> 14:02.520 I'm here to grant your heart's true desire. 14:04.850 --> 14:07.400 I always thought it was strange. 14:07.940 --> 14:13.350 Mataroku Sugino. Kiichi Okada. And, of course, Tsuchiura. 14:13.980 --> 14:17.270 You've constantly made moves to provoke me. 14:19.650 --> 14:21.230 The question is: why? 14:21.730 --> 14:27.190 Your goal is supposedly to purge the foreigners and reestablish the shogunate. 14:27.520 --> 14:29.440 But that isn't quite right. 14:31.060 --> 14:35.850 Because in reality you knew better than anyone that foreign influence would never go away. 14:36.480 --> 14:40.440 Your true goal wasn't for success, but failure. 14:41.060 --> 14:45.400 For someone to step in and kill you. That's what you want, right? 14:46.150 --> 14:48.770 I guess there's no point hiding it. 14:49.850 --> 14:51.560 I knew it all along. 14:52.150 --> 14:58.270 No matter how fiercely we resisted, foreign culture would still find its way into this country. 14:58.730 --> 15:03.270 The government would collapse and the age of samurai would come to an end. 15:03.850 --> 15:05.690 No one can stop that. 15:06.770 --> 15:09.230 I was fully aware. 15:09.980 --> 15:12.150 We must change with the times. 15:12.480 --> 15:17.980 All the people who choose to adapt and welcome the new era are right to do so. 15:18.600 --> 15:21.440 However, it was simply beyond me. 15:22.150 --> 15:28.770 The thought of straying from the life path I've fought so long and hard to forge seemed irrevocably shameful. 15:29.650 --> 15:32.400 And thus, I wanted to be killed. 15:32.980 --> 15:37.270 To die as a samurai who defended the shogunate to the bitter end. 15:39.770 --> 15:44.440 So, it seems you really have come to grant my true desire. 15:45.020 --> 15:46.940 We've both been a thorn in each other's side. 15:46.940 --> 15:48.900 Oh, most definitely. 15:49.230 --> 15:54.730 But that's just what happens when we insist on having things go our way. 15:55.270 --> 15:56.190 You're not wrong. 16:00.900 --> 16:02.690 Will you kill me now? 16:03.600 --> 16:04.350 Yes. 16:09.020 --> 16:11.060 Though you failed to save the age of the samurai, 16:11.730 --> 16:14.100 you shall still meet a warrior's end. 16:21.770 --> 16:23.940 You are a demon enslaved to your blade. 16:25.150 --> 16:28.060 There is no place for you in the future. 16:28.980 --> 16:33.440 Both demons and katana are doomed to be thrown out like yesterday's trash. 16:34.560 --> 16:38.020 So how will you continue to live in this world? 16:39.020 --> 16:47.400 Know that I'll be watching you... with great interest... from beyond the grave... 17:06.560 --> 17:08.600 Daddy's taking a long time. 17:08.850 --> 17:10.400 He sure is. 17:13.480 --> 17:14.810 You're still awake? 17:15.520 --> 17:16.600 Daddy! 17:25.350 --> 17:27.770 Sorry. Didn't mean to keep you waiting. 17:28.230 --> 17:32.480 Jinya-kun. There's a better choice of words for when you come home, you know? 17:34.980 --> 17:36.020 Daddy! 17:36.560 --> 17:39.020 Have you been a good girl, Nomari? 17:39.020 --> 17:39.770 Yeah! 17:42.900 --> 17:44.770 I think I need to leave Edo. 17:45.190 --> 17:48.520 It's only matter of time until word of my being a demon spreads throughout town. 17:49.350 --> 17:50.690 I see. 17:51.900 --> 17:53.900 Well then, consider this. 17:54.440 --> 18:01.150 What if you followed my dad's advice and took over as owner of the soba shop? 18:04.480 --> 18:05.690 Isn't that still a possibility? 18:05.980 --> 18:09.440 We can change the name. How about "Demon Soba"? 18:09.560 --> 18:11.810 A soba shop run by a married demon couple. 18:11.940 --> 18:13.600 Doesn't that sound amusing? 18:15.020 --> 18:17.520 I guess that would be kinda nice. 18:17.940 --> 18:20.020 Right? So, then... 18:22.310 --> 18:24.100 It's still a no, huh? 18:24.520 --> 18:26.850 I can't stray from my life path at this point. 18:27.770 --> 18:30.270 But you knew that already, didn't you? 18:32.770 --> 18:35.810 You really are the biggest hardhead alive. 18:36.350 --> 18:39.560 Yeah. Even I wish I didn't have to be like that. 18:40.350 --> 18:41.520 Listen, Ofuu. 18:42.350 --> 18:44.350 Although I might have made a huge mistake, 18:44.850 --> 18:47.020 I'm not depressed about it. 18:48.150 --> 18:51.560 I'm still unsure whether I'll be able to forgive Suzune in the end or not. 18:52.230 --> 18:54.980 But there are people I can save even if I stay on this flawed path. 18:55.310 --> 18:56.850 You helped me realize that. 18:57.480 --> 19:00.020 So I'm going to hem and haw for a little longer. 19:01.310 --> 19:02.600 Will you come with me? 19:09.900 --> 19:10.900 I'm sorry. 19:12.100 --> 19:13.850 I'm just hopeless, aren't I? 19:14.350 --> 19:16.400 Seeing you like that got me thinking... 19:16.850 --> 19:19.650 I took my dad's hand and let him lead me to the outside. 19:19.940 --> 19:23.270 Then I just lived under his wing the entire time. 19:24.020 --> 19:28.690 All I really did was stop relying on the comfort of my memories to rely on him instead. 19:28.690 --> 19:31.190 So if I take your hand now, 19:31.650 --> 19:33.730 I know that I'll only end up dependent on you. 19:34.310 --> 19:38.850 Nothing will have changed from back when I shut myself in the garden of happiness. 19:39.730 --> 19:41.940 That's too frustrating to live with, you know? 19:42.650 --> 19:47.600 So, although I'm the one who brought up the idea of sticking together, I can't go with you. 19:47.600 --> 19:50.440 I have to learn how to make it on my own first. 19:51.100 --> 19:55.480 Otherwise, staying by your side will only make me depressed. 19:56.480 --> 19:58.520 We're quite the awkward pair, eh? 19:58.900 --> 20:00.190 You can say that again. 20:01.810 --> 20:03.400 I need you to do me a favor. 20:03.730 --> 20:04.770 Could you please take Noma- 20:04.770 --> 20:07.270 No! I'm going with you, Daddy! 20:12.650 --> 20:13.980 You heard her. 20:14.900 --> 20:15.850 All right. 20:16.270 --> 20:17.400 Let's go together. 20:18.520 --> 20:19.480 Uh-huh! 20:25.730 --> 20:27.440 Will we see each other again? 20:27.900 --> 20:29.060 I don't know. 20:29.440 --> 20:31.600 But we won't be dying from old age any time soon. 20:31.600 --> 20:33.190 So we may bump into each other someday. 20:33.520 --> 20:37.350 Oh, come on. You know this is the part you're supposed to just lie and say "yes". 20:37.900 --> 20:40.270 Too bad that demons never lie. 20:43.980 --> 20:45.770 So long, Ofuu. 20:46.400 --> 20:47.270 Bye. 20:48.020 --> 20:50.100 See you again. Someday. 21:06.560 --> 21:08.310 Are you happy, Daddy? 21:15.150 --> 21:18.060 Yeah. I suppose I must be. 21:19.270 --> 21:20.730 Hopefully we cross paths again. 21:24.650 --> 21:25.650 Goodbye. 21:26.940 --> 21:27.940 Ready to go? 21:27.940 --> 21:28.690 Yep! 21:31.850 --> 21:34.980 On October 14th, in the third year of the Keio era, 21:35.560 --> 21:39.940 the 15th Commander-in-Chief of the Edo shogunate, Yoshinobu Tokugawa, 21:39.940 --> 21:42.440 ceded his political authority to the Emperor. 21:43.150 --> 21:46.060 This event was widely known as the "Return of Power". 21:47.310 --> 21:50.650 And thus, the long-running age of the samurai came to an end, 21:50.650 --> 21:54.060 and a brand new era was ushered in. 22:29.850 --> 22:31.690 Are you happy, Daddy? 22:32.230 --> 22:35.020 Yeah. I suppose I must be. 22:36.900 --> 22:38.440 Hopefully we cross paths again. 22:41.980 --> 22:43.150 What's the matter? 22:44.150 --> 22:46.310 I saw someone who brought back memories. 22:46.690 --> 22:48.270 Who might that be? 22:49.770 --> 22:52.400 A person whose feelings I once hurt. 22:53.900 --> 22:56.850 I'm sorry. I shouldn't be holding us up! 22:57.230 --> 22:59.150 Let's go, darling. 22:59.150 --> 23:01.900 Okay, I suppose it's about time we head back to the shop... 23:02.230 --> 23:03.940 Lady Natsu. 23:04.350 --> 23:05.350 Darling! 23:06.150 --> 23:10.190 Shucks, don't mind me.
