1. Takauji Ashikaga.
Copy !req
2. Taking down the Kamakura
Shogunate was a great cause indeed.
Copy !req
3. In honor of your merits, I will bestow you
a character from my name.
Copy !req
4. You will be known as…
(Taka )
Copy !req
5. Takauji Ashikaga from now.
(Takauji Ashikaga >)
Copy !req
6. Takauji Ashikaga from now.
(Takauji Ashikaga)
Copy !req
7. I am honored.
Copy !req
8. (August 5th, 1333, Kyoto)
Thanks to you, the empire has returned to us.
Copy !req
9. If there is any official position you would
like to hold in the new Imperial Court,
Copy !req
10. just let me know.
Copy !req
11. I am but a man of valor.
Copy !req
12. I cannot work with pens at all.
Copy !req
13. Instead…
Copy !req
14. My retainers behind me
are too good for me,
Copy !req
15. too pure of heart,
too intelligent, too brave.
Copy !req
16. I would be more than happy if these men…
Copy !req
17. …could work for the Imperial Court.
Copy !req
18. (Ohh…)
Ohh…
Copy !req
19. Well, I heard that he was the one
who destroyed Kamakura…
Copy !req
20. So I thought he must look scary!
Copy !req
21. But look at that prodigal, gentle smile!
Copy !req
22. That's definitely
a human's face, not a demon's.
Copy !req
23. The emperor's wish has been granted.
Copy !req
24. The time has come for the emperor,
Copy !req
25. and the court nobles, to rule
once again in place of the shogunate!
Copy !req
26. Good work out there.
Copy !req
27. What is it, Moronao?
Copy !req
28. Nothing.
Copy !req
29. I have served you since you were little,
Copy !req
30. and your smile has become
more uncanny in recent years.
Copy !req
31. Enough with your nonsense.
Copy !req
32. I'm leaving it to you.
Copy !req
33. We must all support the emperor.
Copy !req
34. Yes.
Copy !req
35. Lord Takauji.
Copy !req
36. I thank you for recommending me
for the position of Governor of Shinano.
Copy !req
37. You were the first to give up
on Hojo and fight as my retainer.
Copy !req
38. It is only befitting.
Copy !req
39. But in your Shinano region,
Copy !req
40. Suwa, the leading figure of the Hojo clan,
is still alive and well.
Copy !req
41. The remnants of the Hojo
must surely be running and hiding.
Copy !req
42. I'm sure you can find them.
Copy !req
43. I see four male mites and one female mite.
Copy !req
44. Leave it to me, Lord Takauji.
Copy !req
45. My bow and my eyesight
are the best in the world.
Copy !req
46. I will find any small insect,
Copy !req
47. and shoot it to death for your viewing pleasure!
Copy !req
48. and shoot it to death for your viewing pleasure!
Copy !req
49. Are you for real?
Copy !req
50. I've never seen anyone who couldn't
cut a bundle of straw before.
Copy !req
51. Lord Tokiyuki's muscles…
Copy !req
52. …are always ready to flee
at a moment's notice,
Copy !req
53. even when attacking.
Copy !req
54. As a result,
he swings his sword with a bent back.
Copy !req
55. You should really train
yourself to swing with your hips.
Copy !req
56. That would backfire!
Copy !req
57. Training his attack muscles will
weaken his running-away muscles!
Copy !req
58. Both his offensive and evasive skills will
worsen, and he'll lose his strength!
Copy !req
59. What even is "running-away muscles"?
Copy !req
60. I see you're quite good
at archery, Young Master.
Copy !req
61. My father loved to
watch me practice archery.
Copy !req
62. Wow!
Copy !req
63. That was a splendid job, Lord Tokiyuki!
Copy !req
64. Yeah.
Copy !req
65. Right in the middle!
Copy !req
66. It's right in the middle!
Copy !req
67. Well done, Lord Tokiyuki!
Copy !req
68. I may look like this,
but I've been forced to do a lot of archery.
Copy !req
69. It's settled, then.
Copy !req
70. Let's stretch your bow for now.
Copy !req
71. As a general, he can't just run away.
It's bad for the morale of the troops.
Copy !req
72. I want him to learn how
to make use of his traits,
Copy !req
73. and defeat his enemies while running away…
Copy !req
74. Well, where is the teacher who
can teach such a sinister path?
Copy !req
75. Lord Yorishige!
Copy !req
76. Sadamune Ogasawara
of Nishi-Shinano paid a sudden visit!
Copy !req
77. Sadamune?
Copy !req
78. Who is he?
Copy !req
79. Have you never met him in Kamakura?
Copy !req
80. I don't know him.
Copy !req
81. I don't think he's the kind of man
who'd have access to my father's mansion.
Copy !req
82. He should be safe, then.
Copy !req
83. Just in case, hide in that
shack and watch from there.
Copy !req
84. If it isn't Sir Yorishige! Long time no see!
Copy !req
85. I'm flattered that you came
all the way to our place.
Copy !req
86. What brings you here, Sir Sadamune?
Copy !req
87. Sorry for coming on such short notice.
Copy !req
88. I just thought I'd say hello.
Copy !req
89. As you know, the Shogunate fell.
Copy !req
90. Thus, the regime returned
to the emperor Go-Daigo in the capital.
Copy !req
91. I bring a written command from the emperor.
Copy !req
92. That Sadamune Ogasawara…
Copy !req
93. …is appointed Governor of Shinano.
Copy !req
94. (Written Command = Decree )
…is appointed Governor of Shinano.
Copy !req
95. From now on,
I am in a position to give you orders!
Copy !req
96. Just the other day you were working for Suwa…
Copy !req
97. And now you're ordering us around?
Copy !req
98. When the Kamakura Shogunate fell,
Copy !req
99. we fought the renegade
Hojo with great success.
Copy !req
100. In contrast, the Suwa clan
often fought on the side of the Hojo.
Copy !req
101. You're in no position to complain even
if you have to forfeit your entire territory.
Copy !req
102. Well, we'll come back to that later…
Copy !req
103. There's another reason I'm here today.
Copy !req
104. If you are sheltering the survivors of
the Hojo clan and its vassals here in Suwa,
Copy !req
105. I would like you to hand them over.
Copy !req
106. Sheltering? What nonsense.
Copy !req
107. I can't give you someone I haven't seen.
Copy !req
108. Oh, so you haven't seen them?
Copy !req
109. Two warriors cautiously watching
from behind a cedar tree a town away…
Copy !req
110. The old man holding a small
sword in case of emergency…
Copy !req
111. Children peeking through the
latticework of a shack…
Copy !req
112. They all look so suspicious to me!
Copy !req
113. My all-seeing gaze
cannot be fooled, Sir Yorishige!
Copy !req
114. I'll get them all thoroughly someday!
Copy !req
115. For now, I'll just say hello.
Have a great day.
Copy !req
116. Oh, right!
Copy !req
117. We came in a hurry and
didn't bring any souvenirs.
Copy !req
118. We should at least offer one
deer to the Suwa Myojin!
Copy !req
119. A deer?
Copy !req
120. At Suwa Grand Shrine,
Copy !req
121. it is said that it brings good luck
to catch a deer with a split ear…
Copy !req
122. Oww!
Copy !req
123. That's a good one!
Copy !req
124. Take the fawn with
a split ear as a souvenir!
Copy !req
125. Bastard…
Copy !req
126. How's Miss Sakae doing?
Copy !req
127. They said they could sew it up.
Copy !req
128. Although, the very person said while smiling,
"This wound isn't worth the fuss."
Copy !req
129. Sadamune Ogasawara is a master
archer heard throughout Japan
Copy !req
130. He has the sight and
observation that supports his bow.
Copy !req
131. A troublesome man has
become the Governor of Shinano.
Copy !req
132. That goofy eyeball dude…
Copy !req
133. I can't believe he actually shot a mere
shrine woman.
Copy !req
134. What do you think, Young Master?
Copy !req
135. It's a shameful conduct as a warrior.
Copy !req
136. Within his eyeballs
lie his terrible character.
Copy !req
137. But…
Copy !req
138. But?
Copy !req
139. Hsi archery…
Copy !req
140. …was beautiful, truly.
Copy !req
141. What an honest and forgiving man.
Copy !req
142. He has the ability to admit the
good things even from the person he hates.
Copy !req
143. These qualities will certainly
serve him well when he becomes general.
Copy !req
144. I also found a great teacher for him!
Copy !req
145. It's settled, then.
Copy !req
146. Your next game of tag
will be hide and seek.
Copy !req
147. Hide and seek?
Copy !req
148. Sadamune has two objectives.
Copy !req
149. To capture the remnants of Hojo,
Copy !req
150. and weaken Suwa's power
by taking advantage of it.
Copy !req
151. But you too have two objectives.
Copy !req
152. To never blow your cover,
Copy !req
153. and steal his archery skills.
Copy !req
154. Sadamune will abuse his position as governor,
Copy !req
155. and cause trouble in our territory again.
Copy !req
156. So, that means you'll have
plenty of chances to see his archery.
Copy !req
157. Sometimes you hide yourself,
and sometimes your true identity.
Copy !req
158. Stay close to him and watch his bow.
Copy !req
159. The game of hide and seek
to escape those eyes and bow!
Copy !req
160. It's a thrill of wondering whether
you'll be found or shot in the eye!
Copy !req
161. It surely will make your heart race!
Copy !req
162. I overheard something about this.
Copy !req
163. In three days, a dog shooting competition…
Copy !req
164. …will be held at Suwa Grand Shrine.
Copy !req
165. I, Sadamune, have a plan for that.
Copy !req
166. To weaken Yorishige Suwa's power,
Copy !req
167. and find the remnants of the Hojo clan.
Copy !req
168. We participate in the competition
and pick fights with everyone.
Copy !req
169. We then win and get
them to accept our terms.
Copy !req
170. That's a great idea.
Copy !req
171. It feels disgusting to be whispered
through eye conduction!
Copy !req
172. Damn it! It's not going as I thought.
Copy !req
173. I need to get better.
Copy !req
174. Lord Tokiyuki,
good luck for the next round.
Copy !req
175. Yeah.
Copy !req
176. Shizuku.
Copy !req
177. It is dangerous to mention his
name in front of a large crowd.
Copy !req
178. From now on, we'll use
aliases in front of outsiders.
Copy !req
179. You should think of a nickname for him too.
Copy !req
180. Then, Brother…
Copy !req
181. Young Master!
Copy !req
182. We've got trouble!
Copy !req
183. We have a surprise participant!
Copy !req
184. The Governor of Shinano has
jumped into the competition!
Copy !req
185. How come he participated nonchalantly?
Copy !req
186. And forcefully…
Copy !req
187. This dog shooting competition
is the Suwa Province's main event.
Copy !req
188. I thought I'd liven up the event
as the Governor of Shinano.
Copy !req
189. May I, Sir Yorishige?
Copy !req
190. Of course, you are welcome here.
Copy !req
191. Five arrows for each participant.
Copy !req
192. Scoring is determined by the position
of the hit and the shooting posture, as usual.
Copy !req
193. Release the dogs!
Copy !req
194. Torso shot from right side, four points!
Copy !req
195. Head shot from right side, five points!
Copy !req
196. Neck shot from right side, five points!
Copy !req
197. He's got skills.
Copy !req
198. All his high scores were from the right side,
and on horseback too…
Copy !req
199. Unlike from the left, shooting from the right
Copy !req
200. would mean twisting one's body…
Copy !req
201. And all his shots hit the vital spots!
Copy !req
202. Sir Yorishige's trembling?
Copy !req
203. He's scared of Sadamune's bow?
Copy !req
204. Not that…
Copy !req
205. In the future, it'd be
a definite case of animal cruelty,
Copy !req
206. but in this day and age, it's a normal thing,
and I don't want to make a fuss…
Copy !req
207. To whom and what
are you even explaining?
Copy !req
208. All right, what rank am I in now?
Copy !req
209. You placed first in the individual category…
Copy !req
210. Oh, the government official…
Copy !req
211. …actually scored first?
And he participated out of the blue too!
Copy !req
212. Is this what the dog shooting competition,
in honor of the God of War in Suwa, all about?
Copy !req
213. Cut the nonsense!
Copy !req
214. There are still some strong
contenders waiting in the wings!
Copy !req
215. Oh?
Copy !req
216. Then let's make a wager with that
strong contender in a friendly match.
Copy !req
217. Wager?
Copy !req
218. As you know, I am looking
for the remnants of Hojo.
Copy !req
219. If any of you can't win against my bow…
Copy !req
220. We will search for
Hojo in this Suwa territory.
Copy !req
221. And interrogate suspicious people.
Copy !req
222. You must swear not to interfere in any way.
Copy !req
223. How dare he propose something selfish…
Copy !req
224. He's so bold to be coming here
with only a few people.
Copy !req
225. Sadamune is a governor
under orders by the emperor.
Copy !req
226. We can't touch him so casually.
Copy !req
227. On the other hand, Sadamune will not get away
with it if he attacks Suwa head-on.
Copy !req
228. This is the game of war without
war between me and Sadamune.
Copy !req
229. I take the wager.
Copy !req
230. If we win, you will not ravage our lands,
Copy !req
231. by brandishing your
authority as a governor.
Copy !req
232. Will that do?
Copy !req
233. Got you now.
Copy !req
234. You have to save face
as the master of Suwa.
Copy !req
235. If you are provoked in front of your own
people, you have no choice but to accept.
Copy !req
236. He'll lose the wager
and be greatly embarrassed,
Copy !req
237. and if Hojo is found in the subsequent
search, he is guilty of concealment!
Copy !req
238. Suwa will fall and bow down to Ogasawara!
Copy !req
239. So, who will be your strong contender?
Copy !req
240. Contender?
Copy !req
241. A kid like him would be your best opponent!
Copy !req
242. His name is Chojomaru.
Copy !req
243. He's Suwa's worst loser,
so he's a good match for you.
Copy !req
244. Are you making a fool of me, Sir Yorishige?
Copy !req
245. Oh, right! It's boring
to just win right away,
Copy !req
246. so let's add an additional arrangement.
Copy !req
247. If you hit each other's body, you will score
points as well as you hit the dogs.
Copy !req
248. Let's make it like that!
Copy !req
249. Oh, are you trembling in fear?
Copy !req
250. Unlike the unarmed shrine girl…
Copy !req
251. This one's armed!
Copy !req
252. Stop it, Lord Yorishige!
Copy !req
253. Young Master's fighting ability is
like a rabbit! Suwa will end like this!
Copy !req
254. He's the type that would
lose with such an expression!
Copy !req
255. Don't you underestimate his weakness!
Copy !req
256. Why putting it like that?
Copy !req
257. Father, I don't know why you'd bother to have
the pursued himself confront his pursuer.
Copy !req
258. Because it's worth it.
Copy !req
259. Fighting with masters
makes one grow up a lot.
Copy !req
260. Lord Tokiyuki.
Copy !req
261. I see a future in which you will open the door
to new growth by competing with that Sadamune.
Copy !req
262. I assure you.
Copy !req
263. After the fight, you'll learn something cool.
Copy !req
264. Or maybe you won't… I'm not sure…
Copy !req
265. Please assure me!
Copy !req
266. All right, what's the plan now?
Copy !req
267. Will your career as Hojo's general
be risk-free or will you thrive?
Copy !req
268. It's all up to you.
Copy !req
269. That's so unfair.
Copy !req
270. You always get your way with me.
Copy !req
271. When I decided I'lll defeat him…
Copy !req
272. Shizuku.
Copy !req
273. Get my bow.
Copy !req
274. He's so strange.
Copy !req
275. He usually runs away,
Copy !req
276. but he doesn't run away from the
most difficult enemy so far here.
Copy !req
277. I could see the future clearly too.
Copy !req
278. He will never run away…
Copy !req
279. …from the important things
he determined to do…
Copy !req
280. …for the rest of his life.
Copy !req
281. You brat…
Copy !req
282. I will make you pay for underestimating me.
Copy !req
283. Please make a claim
to Lord Yorishige instead.
Copy !req
284. I can tell at a glance
that your skills are low.
Copy !req
285. Do you really plan on winning?
Copy !req
286. Well…
Copy !req
287. Only God knows that.
Copy !req
288. Begin!
Copy !req
289. All right, what do I do now?
Copy !req
290. Do I shoot the dogs as usual to get points?
Copy !req
291. No! I'll aim for the boy!
Copy !req
292. Hey, kid!
Copy !req
293. Do you really want to piss me off?
Copy !req
294. You don't have to hit him.
Copy !req
295. Make sure his first arrow is
aimed squarely at you.
Copy !req
296. A warrior will buy any fight sold to him.
Copy !req
297. He'll shoot back for sure.
Copy !req
298. Be sure to dodge that.
Copy !req
299. Sadamune concentrates all
his attention on each shot,
Copy !req
300. so he does not like to
shoot in rapid succession.
Copy !req
301. There will be a long
interval before his next shot.
Copy !req
302. In the meantime, shoot the dogs
and score some points.
Copy !req
303. There must be a red dog that will run to
your side to make it easier for you to guess.
Copy !req
304. That's a dog I trained for entertainment!
Copy !req
305. Do we even need one for that?
Copy !req
306. Aim well, you lousy shot!
Copy !req
307. You ain't gonna get your reward venison!
Copy !req
308. Another one!
Copy !req
309. That's good.
Copy !req
310. Body shot with left hand, one point!
Copy !req
311. The kid's leading!
Copy !req
312. You rascal!
Copy !req
313. Now all you have to do is run.
Copy !req
314. It must be very difficult for someone who
doesn't know you to shoot at first sight.
Copy !req
315. Oh, no. My last shot.
Copy !req
316. I still haven't scored yet.
Copy !req
317. If I miss, I'll lose!
Copy !req
318. Sadamune, starting to get impatient,
will switch his sights to the dogs.
Copy !req
319. But this time, the dogs are better
at running than those at Suwa Grand Shrine.
Copy !req
320. Even Sadamune won't have it easy either.
Copy !req
321. Use it as an opportunity to aim at
Sadamune with your remaining arrows.
Copy !req
322. He will lose his composure,
with hesitation, and fear of being targeted,
Copy !req
323. and he will not be able
to shoot a dog very well.
Copy !req
324. This is bad. He's in the blind spot!
Copy !req
325. No matter how much he twists his body,
Copy !req
326. he can't shoot Sadamune like that!
Copy !req
327. When it comes to a battle,
you can't win with a bow alone.
Copy !req
328. Horsemanship that allows
advantageous positioning is also essential!
Copy !req
329. This is no longer a dog shooting competition.
Copy !req
330. It's a cavalry battle,
like in an actual war!
Copy !req
331. Lord Moritaka…
Copy !req
332. He's a professional commentator
of Suwa Grand Shrine.
Copy !req
333. Chojomaru turns his horse around,
desperately trying to break the blind spot…
Copy !req
334. But Sadamune is leisurely
not letting up as well!
Copy !req
335. Sadamune Ogasawara.
Copy !req
336. His martial arts were highly
praised by Emperor Godaigo.
Copy !req
337. Good.
Copy !req
338. The emperor said it was good!
Copy !req
339. All warriors should follow
the example of Ogasawara…
Copy !req
340. As an endorsement of the emperor himself,
Copy !req
341. the word "lord" was allowed
to be included in the family crest.
Copy !req
342. The school of martial arts
formed by Sadamune Ogasawara…
Copy !req
343. …has been handed down and flourished
until the present day in the 21st century.
Copy !req
344. The moment when you're
so distracted by my horse's maneuvers,
Copy !req
345. that dodging my arrow
completely disappears from your mind…
Copy !req
346. My eyes won't miss such a moment.
Copy !req
347. Head shot with right hand, five points!
Copy !req
348. Wow, the table has turned!
Copy !req
349. It'll be hard to catch up for that kid!
Copy !req
350. All right, I shot all my arrows.
Copy !req
351. You are free to aim at me or the dogs.
Copy !req
352. But I will never give up this blind spot.
Copy !req
353. If you try to shoot a dog,
I will hit your horse and interfere.
Copy !req
354. It's a dead end for you, kid.
Copy !req
355. I'm bleeding… It hurts…
Copy !req
356. I can't beat him… I'm scared…
Copy !req
357. I would've died were this a real arrow!
Copy !req
358. Why are you running?
Copy !req
359. Are you scaring?
Copy !req
360. Trying to fight back?
Copy !req
361. This is fun!
Copy !req
362. (Episode 5 (1333) - Settling the Score!)
Coming forth.
Copy !req
