00:01:35,658 --> 00:01:41,038
BAKI-DOU: THE INVINCIBLE SAMURAI
2
00:01:49,338 --> 00:01:50,548
You don't warm up.
3
00:01:52,800 --> 00:01:54,260
You're a martial artist.
4
00:01:54,343 --> 00:01:55,177
Baki.
5
00:01:55,261 --> 00:01:57,263
Well, well.
6
00:01:57,763 --> 00:02:01,308
Your jacket seems kind of heavy.
7
00:02:01,392 --> 00:02:02,601
Well...
8
00:02:02,685 --> 00:02:05,187
I guess you're all loaded up.
9
00:02:05,271 --> 00:02:07,940
As long as this is the rule for tonight.
10
00:02:08,023 --> 00:02:11,443
Honestly, how typical of you, Retsu.
11
00:02:11,527 --> 00:02:14,196
Typical of me?
12
00:02:15,072 --> 00:02:15,948
You play fair.
13
00:02:16,907 --> 00:02:21,704
Since you're fighting a samurai,
you think it's fair to allow weapons.
14
00:02:21,787 --> 00:02:25,791
That mindset is so typical of you,
Sea King Retsu.
15
00:02:26,917 --> 00:02:28,210
I'm jealous.
16
00:02:28,294 --> 00:02:31,213
"You're a samurai,
so you should use your sword."
17
00:02:31,964 --> 00:02:34,466
I couldn't say that myself.
18
00:02:34,967 --> 00:02:36,218
You're amazing.
19
00:02:37,303 --> 00:02:39,221
It's almost time.
20
00:02:40,806 --> 00:02:43,726
This may be none of my business,
21
00:02:44,393 --> 00:02:47,479
{\an8}but do you know how powerful
Musashi Miyamoto is without a sword?
22
00:02:48,063 --> 00:02:51,233
We fought bare-handed three days ago.
23
00:02:53,944 --> 00:02:56,739
Musashi Miyamoto without a sword.
24
00:02:57,531 --> 00:03:00,534
At that point,
he was evenly matched with me.
25
00:03:00,618 --> 00:03:04,246
Or maybe even stronger.
26
00:03:13,839 --> 00:03:15,633
Good grief.
27
00:03:15,716 --> 00:03:21,263
You're about to go to a death match,
but you don't look like it at all.
28
00:03:21,847 --> 00:03:26,018
You almost look excited.
29
00:03:26,101 --> 00:03:28,520
Excited, you say?
30
00:03:29,355 --> 00:03:30,898
Because of my immaturity,
31
00:03:31,565 --> 00:03:35,361
I'm far from a clear and tranquil mind.
32
00:03:35,861 --> 00:03:38,656
I can't stop my excitement.
33
00:03:38,739 --> 00:03:43,285
There's no uncertainty
in the joy of clashing blades.
34
00:03:44,203 --> 00:03:45,371
There he is!
35
00:03:45,454 --> 00:03:46,288
That's him?
36
00:03:46,372 --> 00:03:47,748
Musashi Miyamoto?
37
00:03:47,831 --> 00:03:48,874
It's really him?
38
00:03:48,958 --> 00:03:51,126
What an intense face he's got.
39
00:03:51,210 --> 00:03:52,920
Like a seasoned warrior?
40
00:03:53,003 --> 00:03:54,546
I've seen his face on TV.
41
00:03:54,630 --> 00:03:56,048
He looks real.
42
00:03:56,131 --> 00:03:57,549
He's got a sword.
43
00:03:57,633 --> 00:03:59,843
- He's gonna cut him up!
- It suits him.
44
00:03:59,927 --> 00:04:02,346
He looks so cool.
45
00:04:03,639 --> 00:04:06,558
He made it clear with just one look.
46
00:04:07,268 --> 00:04:09,645
This guy's the real deal.
47
00:04:12,648 --> 00:04:13,857
Retsu!
48
00:04:13,941 --> 00:04:15,567
He's here! Hey!
49
00:04:15,651 --> 00:04:17,569
Go home, please!
50
00:04:17,653 --> 00:04:19,071
He's going to fight?
51
00:04:19,154 --> 00:04:20,572
Can he fight?
52
00:04:20,656 --> 00:04:21,907
Please stop!
53
00:04:21,991 --> 00:04:24,034
Cut him up!
54
00:04:34,169 --> 00:04:38,882
This match will be held
under special rules.
55
00:04:38,966 --> 00:04:42,344
All the weapons here
are allowed to be used.
56
00:04:42,428 --> 00:04:46,098
The same applies to the weapons
brought by either fighter.
57
00:04:46,682 --> 00:04:50,102
There's only one foul,
and that's the use of firearms.
58
00:04:54,189 --> 00:04:55,858
Return to your positions!
59
00:05:02,656 --> 00:05:03,615
Retsu,
60
00:05:04,241 --> 00:05:05,868
you've got a great look.
61
00:05:08,704 --> 00:05:10,622
Come back!
62
00:05:15,711 --> 00:05:16,879
Begin!
63
00:05:20,466 --> 00:05:23,677
All the spectators were taken aback.
64
00:05:23,761 --> 00:05:26,889
There wasn't even a murmur,
let alone cheers.
65
00:05:26,972 --> 00:05:28,474
Finally.
66
00:05:28,557 --> 00:05:30,392
They finally caught up.
67
00:05:31,060 --> 00:05:33,687
They're about to watch
a fight to the death.
68
00:05:36,982 --> 00:05:40,235
It's just started.
69
00:05:41,445 --> 00:05:46,200
The one who broke the silence was,
of course, this man.
70
00:05:46,700 --> 00:05:48,160
Well then...
71
00:05:49,745 --> 00:05:54,666
There's no need to drag this out,
so I'll end this as quickly as possible.
72
00:05:58,754 --> 00:05:59,755
{\an8}Knives?
73
00:05:59,838 --> 00:06:00,672
{\an8}Shuriken?
74
00:06:14,269 --> 00:06:16,188
It went right through him?
75
00:06:16,271 --> 00:06:20,359
He's so fast! He's moving so fast
that he's leaving afterimages.
76
00:06:20,442 --> 00:06:23,195
It's the first shot, so it's doable.
77
00:06:31,787 --> 00:06:32,704
He's ambidextrous!
78
00:06:36,041 --> 00:06:37,459
He's using both hands!
79
00:06:41,171 --> 00:06:43,090
Whoa! He caught them!
80
00:07:05,946 --> 00:07:09,116
Is this okay?
Is it okay for us to watch this?
81
00:07:09,908 --> 00:07:12,619
On TV, in movies, in manga.
82
00:07:13,537 --> 00:07:17,124
We must've seen this weapon
countless times. A shuriken.
83
00:07:17,749 --> 00:07:22,212
It looks light, but it's powerful enough
to pierce a frying pan.
84
00:07:23,297 --> 00:07:28,886
He threw several of those things
at full force at a human body.
85
00:07:29,720 --> 00:07:31,346
On top of that,
86
00:07:31,972 --> 00:07:37,644
his opponent dodged them, let them pass,
and caught them with his bare hands.
87
00:07:38,896 --> 00:07:40,105
And on top of that...
88
00:07:41,773 --> 00:07:43,150
he cut one in half.
89
00:07:45,152 --> 00:07:46,195
That's impossible.
90
00:07:47,488 --> 00:07:49,907
All one can do is grip sweaty palms.
91
00:07:50,657 --> 00:07:51,700
They can't cheer.
92
00:07:52,367 --> 00:07:53,994
They can't react.
93
00:07:55,037 --> 00:07:57,581
There's just one thing
they can understand.
94
00:07:58,248 --> 00:08:01,668
The fact that was shoved in our faces
with no explanation.
95
00:08:02,252 --> 00:08:04,755
The most difficult fact to accept.
96
00:08:06,006 --> 00:08:09,676
This Musashi Miyamoto is real!
97
00:08:09,760 --> 00:08:12,429
He sheathed his sword.
98
00:08:16,767 --> 00:08:18,101
It's empty.
99
00:08:18,185 --> 00:08:19,937
He used all of them.
100
00:08:41,041 --> 00:08:42,334
That's amazing.
101
00:08:42,417 --> 00:08:44,878
It's just like bullfighting.
102
00:08:44,962 --> 00:08:46,213
It's like a cape.
103
00:08:47,464 --> 00:08:49,216
{\an8}It's more than that.
104
00:09:00,811 --> 00:09:03,188
{\an8}Nails and teeth are stuck in!
105
00:09:03,272 --> 00:09:04,481
{\an8}It's like a shotgun.
106
00:09:27,713 --> 00:09:30,132
He didn't even blink.
107
00:09:30,716 --> 00:09:35,220
Even after his eyeball was directly hit,
he didn't show any signs of weakness.
108
00:09:41,560 --> 00:09:44,146
Are you a child, Sea King Retsu?
109
00:09:44,730 --> 00:09:47,816
First shuriken, now sand with pebbles.
110
00:09:47,899 --> 00:09:50,027
You keep throwing projectiles.
111
00:09:50,110 --> 00:09:52,904
Do you not like getting close,
Sea King Retsu?
112
00:09:57,034 --> 00:09:58,910
That's fine, Retsu.
113
00:09:58,994 --> 00:10:04,666
If you run out of things to throw,
will you start spitting, Sea King Retsu?
114
00:10:15,510 --> 00:10:18,430
Good grief, he really has no plan.
115
00:10:28,523 --> 00:10:29,691
The nine-section whip.
116
00:10:31,526 --> 00:10:34,196
That's so Chinese.
117
00:10:44,498 --> 00:10:45,957
Musashi is down!
118
00:10:46,041 --> 00:10:48,543
He's been completely knocked down!
119
00:10:54,633 --> 00:10:56,927
- He's bleeding!
- What did he pull out?
120
00:10:57,010 --> 00:10:59,054
- It's spinning!
- It sounds incredible!
121
00:11:07,688 --> 00:11:10,565
He retreated... only three inches!
122
00:11:13,151 --> 00:11:16,905
This is fast, but only the tip is fast.
123
00:11:16,988 --> 00:11:22,327
The arm he's controlling them with
moves very smoothly.
124
00:11:23,036 --> 00:11:24,621
He smiled.
125
00:11:24,705 --> 00:11:27,332
The tip of the whip
is too fast for the eye.
126
00:11:32,879 --> 00:11:34,840
He let go of his sword?
127
00:12:17,924 --> 00:12:19,134
You can swing it.
128
00:12:19,968 --> 00:12:23,472
You can swing it, but...
129
00:12:26,975 --> 00:12:32,647
{\an8}The weight is lacking for killing someone.
130
00:12:35,108 --> 00:12:36,902
The steel is bad.
131
00:12:39,488 --> 00:12:42,157
Why can't I step forward?
132
00:12:42,240 --> 00:12:45,660
Man from the continent, Sea King Retsu.
133
00:12:46,453 --> 00:12:50,665
Do you think you can defeat me,
Musashi, with this toy?
134
00:12:50,749 --> 00:12:53,794
While he was distracted by the whip,
135
00:12:53,877 --> 00:12:55,420
why couldn't I strike him?
136
00:12:55,504 --> 00:12:56,922
I had so many...
137
00:12:58,006 --> 00:13:00,675
I had so many chances.
138
00:13:01,635 --> 00:13:02,677
That's a lie!
139
00:13:05,972 --> 00:13:08,683
Don't lie to yourself, Sea King Retsu!
140
00:13:08,767 --> 00:13:10,644
Not even for a moment...
141
00:13:10,727 --> 00:13:12,437
Sea King Retsu.
142
00:13:12,521 --> 00:13:15,941
There were no openings,
not even a crevice!
143
00:13:16,525 --> 00:13:18,944
You see, you swing them like this.
144
00:13:30,789 --> 00:13:32,666
- Two-sword style!
- With chains!
145
00:13:32,749 --> 00:13:34,709
We get to see the Niten Ichi-ryu!
146
00:13:39,297 --> 00:13:44,219
He's going to do it. Like when he sliced
the bamboo to pieces with one swing.
147
00:13:56,314 --> 00:13:57,858
They snapped!
148
00:13:57,941 --> 00:13:59,234
- With one swing.
- No!
149
00:13:59,317 --> 00:14:02,153
- They didn't last one swing!
- They snapped as soon as he swung!
150
00:14:02,237 --> 00:14:03,989
He's not human, seriously.
151
00:14:04,072 --> 00:14:05,574
No.
152
00:14:05,657 --> 00:14:06,992
These aren't weapons.
153
00:14:08,201 --> 00:14:13,498
This is unbearable.
Is that what a nine-section whip is?
154
00:14:14,082 --> 00:14:16,001
Is that how it is?
155
00:14:16,793 --> 00:14:20,630
We swung the iron whips
since we were young.
156
00:14:21,548 --> 00:14:26,136
Even when our skin tore
and we bled, we didn't stop.
157
00:14:26,219 --> 00:14:30,140
We rubbed salt to disinfect it
and kept swinging.
158
00:14:30,724 --> 00:14:34,728
We used to worry about wounds
that wouldn't heal so easily.
159
00:14:35,729 --> 00:14:40,734
But that the whips themselves
would tear apart
160
00:14:41,234 --> 00:14:42,652
was never on our mind!
161
00:14:42,736 --> 00:14:45,196
Hey, Sea King Retsu.
162
00:14:46,531 --> 00:14:48,241
Do you want to give it a try?
163
00:14:51,995 --> 00:14:56,750
Pull it out and swing it around.
That's all there is to it.
164
00:14:56,833 --> 00:15:00,170
You're fighting a samurai.
At least use a sword.
165
00:15:21,024 --> 00:15:23,944
I see. You're as despicable
as the legends claim.
166
00:15:26,029 --> 00:15:28,531
But I am a martial artist.
167
00:15:31,076 --> 00:15:33,787
I won't let you come near me bare-handed!
168
00:15:36,289 --> 00:15:37,499
Well said!
169
00:15:37,582 --> 00:15:39,542
Finish him off!
170
00:15:44,381 --> 00:15:49,469
That moment you knocked me down
was your only chance to win.
171
00:15:49,552 --> 00:15:51,721
There will be no second time.
172
00:15:53,306 --> 00:15:56,810
Sea King Retsu, you're already defeated!
173
00:16:00,855 --> 00:16:02,232
He really said it!
174
00:16:02,315 --> 00:16:04,985
- Musashi is so predictable!
- That's hilarious!
175
00:16:05,068 --> 00:16:07,237
"Kojiro, you're already defeated!"
176
00:16:08,905 --> 00:16:09,739
What?
177
00:16:09,823 --> 00:16:13,952
APRIL 13TH
17TH YEAR OF THE KEICHO ERA
178
00:16:14,035 --> 00:16:17,288
ON GANRYU ISLAND, A HISTORIC DUEL
BETWEEN TWO MASTER SWORDSMEN,
179
00:16:17,372 --> 00:16:20,625
MUSASHI MIYAMOTO AND KOJIRO SASAKI,
WAS ABOUT TO BE HELD
180
00:16:20,709 --> 00:16:23,962
HOWEVER, MUSASHI DIDN'T SHOW UP
AT THE PROMISED TIME
181
00:16:24,045 --> 00:16:25,630
KOJIRO WAITED A LONG TIME
182
00:16:25,714 --> 00:16:27,298
WHEN MUSASHI ARRIVED LATE,
183
00:16:27,382 --> 00:16:30,635
KOJIRO DREW HIS SWORD
AND THREW AWAY HIS SCABBARD
184
00:16:30,719 --> 00:16:35,015
THAT'S WHEN MUSASHI SAID THESE WORDS
185
00:16:36,182 --> 00:16:38,101
"Kojiro, you're already defeated!"
186
00:16:40,020 --> 00:16:43,815
If he intended to win,
why did he throw away the scabbard?
187
00:16:44,399 --> 00:16:48,737
Just as he said,
the duel ended with Musashi's victory.
188
00:16:49,738 --> 00:16:55,952
But he couldn't have known that his words
would be passed down to later generations.
189
00:16:56,036 --> 00:16:58,913
You know these words?
190
00:16:58,997 --> 00:17:01,875
Have they been passed down?
191
00:17:02,500 --> 00:17:04,419
They're very famous.
192
00:17:08,840 --> 00:17:13,344
I approached you. Unarmed, martial artist.
193
00:17:21,436 --> 00:17:23,855
You must not approach me unarmed.
194
00:17:24,731 --> 00:17:26,858
The meaning of those words...
195
00:17:30,820 --> 00:17:32,614
you should've understood.
196
00:17:38,703 --> 00:17:40,371
He lifted him!
197
00:17:40,455 --> 00:17:42,123
With one hand?
198
00:17:42,957 --> 00:17:43,875
Impossible!
199
00:17:43,958 --> 00:17:47,879
That blow to my jaw was amazing.
200
00:17:50,507 --> 00:17:52,383
You're heavier than you look.
201
00:17:53,134 --> 00:17:55,887
I'm over 100 kilos,
and he lifted me with one hand...
202
00:17:57,013 --> 00:18:00,642
Still, you're dexterous.
You turned your hair into a weapon.
203
00:18:02,352 --> 00:18:05,647
On top of that,
you kicked me away from that distance.
204
00:18:05,730 --> 00:18:08,983
He has this kind of grip strength?
Impossible!
205
00:18:15,532 --> 00:18:16,908
He's controlling him!
206
00:18:16,991 --> 00:18:19,410
The Fist Hero is being toyed with!
207
00:18:47,021 --> 00:18:48,940
Is this the sign of a counterattack?
208
00:18:50,108 --> 00:18:52,694
The final pride of Chinese martial arts?
209
00:18:53,653 --> 00:18:56,698
As Retsu stood in the way
and took his stance,
210
00:18:57,574 --> 00:19:02,287
everyone in the arena
had the same thought.
211
00:19:03,329 --> 00:19:08,710
SEA KING RETSU
IS ALREADY DEFEATED!
212
00:20:34,879 --> 00:20:39,300
