Copy !req
17. During the Civil Wars,
Copy !req
18. an endless cycle of conflict
left the countryside overrun by bandits.
Copy !req
19. Peaceable folk lived in terror
of the thunder of approaching hooves...
Copy !req
20. Take this village too?
Copy !req
21. Take it! Take it!
Copy !req
22. Not so fast!
Copy !req
23. We just took their rice last fall.
Copy !req
24. They'll have nothing now.
Copy !req
25. Very well.
Copy !req
26. We'll return
when that barley's ripe!
Copy !req
27. Is there no god to protect us?
Copy !req
28. Land tax, forced labor,
war, drought...
Copy !req
29. and now bandits!
Copy !req
30. The gods want us farmers dead!
Copy !req
31. That's right!
We're better off dead!
Copy !req
32. What's all this?
Crying won't change anything.
Copy !req
33. The magistrate can do more
than collect taxes.
Copy !req
34. We can ask him for help.
Copy !req
35. We know all about him!
Copy !req
36. He shows up after they're gone,
acting big while he surveys the damage.
Copy !req
37. That's right. He's useless.
Copy !req
38. We might as well hand over
our rice and barley to the bandits
Copy !req
39. and just hang ourselves!
Copy !req
40. That'll bring the magistrate
here in a hurry!
Copy !req
41. We'll kill those bandits.
Copy !req
42. We'll kill them all.
Copy !req
43. Never again!
Let's kill 'em all!
Copy !req
44. Not me!
Copy !req
45. I couldn't possibly -
Copy !req
46. That's crazy talk.
Copy !req
47. So we can kill defeated samurai
but not bandits?
Copy !req
48. Stop it! This is no time
to fight amongst ourselves.
Copy !req
49. We don't have a chance against bandits.
And when we lose?
Copy !req
50. They'll slaughter us all,
down to the last unborn child.
Copy !req
51. I've had enough!
Better to risk it all
Copy !req
52. than to live like this.
Kill or be killed!
Copy !req
53. Rikichi!
Copy !req
54. The farmer's only choice
is to endure.
Copy !req
55. We can't defy the powerful.
Copy !req
56. When the bandits arrive,
we'll greet them meekly
Copy !req
57. and quietly hand over
all our barley.
Copy !req
58. We'll plead with them to leave
just enough for us to survive.
Copy !req
59. “That's all we ask,”
we'll beg on our hands and knees.
Copy !req
60. What bandit will agree to that?
Copy !req
61. Have you forgotten how low we had
to stoop for the rice we're eating now?
Copy !req
62. We should go see the Old Man.
Copy !req
63. Let him decide what to do.
Copy !req
64. Consider who
we're dealing with here.
Copy !req
65. Give a wolf a taste of your leg
and he'll ask for your hand.
Copy !req
66. Once they have a taste,
they'll be back in the fall.
Copy !req
67. - Bu! what if we lose?
- Then we're no worse off!
Copy !req
68. Without our barley,
we're doomed anyway!
Copy !req
69. We fight.
Copy !req
70. Old Man, that's madness.
Copy !req
71. We're farmers.
What do we know of battle?
Copy !req
72. We'll hire samurai.
Copy !req
73. Whoever heard of farmers
hiring samurai?
Copy !req
74. I saw it with my own eyes,
Copy !req
75. when the village you were born in
was torched.
Copy !req
76. I saw it when we escaped
to this village here.
Copy !req
77. The only village that didn't burn
was the one that hired samurai.
Copy !req
78. But Old Man, there are
different kinds of villages and villagers.
Copy !req
79. How are we to feed samurai
when we live on rice gruel?
Copy !req
80. We'll make do on millet!
Copy !req
81. Show me a samurai who'll fight
for farmers in return for food!
Copy !req
82. They're a proud lot.
Copy !req
83. Look.
Copy !req
84. Find hungry samurai.
Copy !req
85. Even bears come down from
the mountains when they're hungry.
Copy !req
86. How dare you?
Copy !req
87. You're nothing but a farmer!
I'm still a samurai!
Copy !req
88. I don't need your charity!
Copy !req
89. Fool!
Copy !req
90. What'd I tell you?
Copy !req
91. Look, the barley's ripe.
Copy !req
92. Ten days already
since we left the village.
Copy !req
93. What do we do?
Copy !req
94. This barley's early,
not like our mountain barley.
Copy !req
95. Hey, we're soaked through
to the bone.
Copy !req
96. Find any cheap, strong
and foolhardy samurai?
Copy !req
97. Leftovers.
Copy !req
98. You can have 'em cheap.
Copy !req
99. That's a laugh!
Copy !req
100. - What's so funny?
- He's blind.
Copy !req
101. - What about you, then?
- Not me.
Copy !req
102. I'd rather eat horseshit.
Copy !req
103. - Won't get a nose bleed outta him.
- Cleaned him out gambling last night.
Copy !req
104. Pulled his sword when he lost,
so the three of us beat him up.
Copy !req
105. Not a drop left in his nose now.
Copy !req
106. Don't bother.
They only eat millet.
Copy !req
107. Is that true?
You can't live like that.
Copy !req
108. Without nourishment
you'll go night-blind.
Copy !req
109. I've got just four left.
Copy !req
110. I'll trade 'em all
for a cup of rice.
Copy !req
111. What do you say?
Copy !req
112. Damn! What a bunch.
Copy !req
113. What a waste.
Copy !req
114. If we still had that rice,
we coulda bought 40 of those.
Copy !req
115. Shut up!
Copy !req
116. But it's true, right?
Copy !req
117. The blackheads cracking up!
Copy !req
118. What a show.
Go at it, boys.
Copy !req
119. Who ever heard
of anything so unfair?
Copy !req
120. We give him his fill of rice
and a free bottle of sake,
Copy !req
121. and he thanks us
with a beating.
Copy !req
122. Good for him!
Copy !req
123. Not like this one
playing possum here.
Copy !req
124. Say, let's go home.
Let's just go home.
Copy !req
125. Look at him sobbing.
Copy !req
126. Misses his wifey.
Copy !req
127. I'd pay good money
to watch the two of 'em going at it.
Copy !req
128. Let's hurry
and get back to the village.
Copy !req
129. Go on home. You can't afford buns,
let alone samurai.
Copy !req
130. Farmers like us know
good from bad when it comes to seed,
Copy !req
131. but not when it comes
to samurai.
Copy !req
132. Besides, we're no match
for the tough ones,
Copy !req
133. and the only ones interested
are weaklings.
Copy !req
134. If I lost last night,
it was only because I was starving.
Copy !req
135. Liar! You had plenty
of money to gamble.
Copy !req
136. Jerk!
Copy !req
137. Wanna fight?
Copy !req
138. It's a fight.
Copy !req
139. Over here!
Wake up!
Copy !req
140. Quit that strumming, monk!
It's depressing!
Copy !req
141. Keep it up, grandpa.
We're on your side.
Copy !req
142. Rikichi!
Copy !req
143. Stop it, Manzo!
Copy !req
144. You said we were going home,
you son of a bitch!
Copy !req
145. I said we'd go home,
not bargain with bandits!
Copy !req
146. If we can't hire samurai,
what's left?
Copy !req
147. It's bargain or nothing!
Copy !req
148. Fine, have it your way!
Copy !req
149. But tell me:
Copy !req
150. If we do strike a bargain,
Copy !req
151. what have we got
to offer this year?
Copy !req
152. Are you willing to give 'em
your daughter?
Copy !req
153. Shino's a fine-lookin' girl.
Copy !req
154. What's going on?
Copy !req
155. There's a thief in that barn.
We raised a ruckus and he ran in to hide.
Copy !req
156. How many thieves are there?
Copy !req
157. Just one.
Copy !req
158. One?
Copy !req
159. All of you can't take
a single thief?
Copy !req
160. We don't dare make a move.
He took a kid in there with him.
Copy !req
161. Says he'll kill him
if we attack.
Copy !req
162. Listen. Hear him?
Copy !req
163. Poor thing.
Copy !req
164. It all happened
in the middle of the night.
Copy !req
165. Poor kid's been bawling
the better part of a day.
Copy !req
166. He can barely
make a sound now.
Copy !req
167. He's only seven.
Imagine how his parents feel.
Copy !req
168. Who's that samurai
getting his head shaved?
Copy !req
169. No idea. We asked him for help
and he agreed right away.
Copy !req
170. Then he asked us
for two rice balls.
Copy !req
171. He asked a monk to shave his head
and lend him his robes.
Copy !req
172. No idea what he's up to.
Copy !req
173. Stay back!
Any closer and I kill the brat!
Copy !req
174. I'm a monk.
Copy !req
175. Stay back!
Copy !req
176. I'm just a monk.
I mean you no harm.
Copy !req
177. I won't come in.
Copy !req
178. I just thought the child
must be very hungry.
Copy !req
179. I've brought some rice balls.
Copy !req
180. You should eat one yourself.
Copy !req
181. Won't you have one?
Copy !req
182. What's wrong?
Copy !req
183. Throw 'em here!
Copy !req
184. Here.
Copy !req
185. My baby!
Copy !req
186. Even you can't object
to a samurai like that.
Copy !req
187. Ask him quickly.
It'll be harder in town.
Copy !req
188. What do you want?
Copy !req
189. My name is Katsushiro Okamoto.
Please make me your disciple!
Copy !req
190. Disciple?
Copy !req
191. As you see, I'm a ronin.
The name is Kambei Shimada.
Copy !req
192. I don't take on disciples.
Copy !req
193. Get up.
I can't talk to you like this.
Copy !req
194. I'm begging you -
let me be your disciple.
Copy !req
195. First get off your knees.
We'll talk as we go.
Copy !req
196. I'm at a loss.
Copy !req
197. You think far too highly of me.
Copy !req
198. No, sir -
Copy !req
199. Just hear me out.
Copy !req
200. There's nothing special
about me.
Copy !req
201. I may have seen
my share of battle,
Copy !req
202. but always on the losing side.
Copy !req
203. That about sums me up.
Copy !req
204. Better not to follow
such an unlucky man.
Copy !req
205. No, I'm determined to follow you
whether you allow me to or not.
Copy !req
206. I forbid it.
Copy !req
207. I don't have the means
to travel with an attendant.
Copy !req
208. Can I help you?
Copy !req
209. What do you want?
Copy !req
210. Insolence!
Copy !req
211. Stay out of this, little chick.
Copy !req
212. Are you a samurai?
Copy !req
213. Damn right I am!
Copy !req
214. I wonder.
Copy !req
215. Bastard.
Copy !req
216. Who was that?
Copy !req
217. Leave him be.
Copy !req
218. I beg of you, sir!
Copy !req
219. You idiot.
Why don't you scram?
Copy !req
220. Stubborn old fool.
They'll eat it and run like last time.
Copy !req
221. It will never work.
Copy !req
222. Sir, we could arm the villagers
with bamboo spears.
Copy !req
223. - I thought of that.
- But, sir -
Copy !req
224. This isn't a game.
Copy !req
225. They may be bandits,
but they ride 40 strong.
Copy !req
226. Two or three samurai
won't suffice.
Copy !req
227. Defense is more difficult
than offense.
Copy !req
228. You say there are mountains
behind the village?
Copy !req
229. Yes.
Copy !req
230. Passable by horse?
Copy !req
231. Yes.
Copy !req
232. Fields in front.
Copy !req
233. Until those are flooded
with water,
Copy !req
234. you're open to mounted attack
on four sides.
Copy !req
235. You need at least four men,
one to guard each side.
Copy !req
236. Two more to guard the rear.
Copy !req
237. No matter how frugal
our estimate,
Copy !req
238. we need seven,
including me.
Copy !req
239. We can manage
seven somehow.
Copy !req
240. But the Old Man said four.
Copy !req
241. It's only three more.
Copy !req
242. Hold on a second.
Copy !req
243. I haven't accepted your offer.
I'm only speculating.
Copy !req
244. First of all, it's not easy
to find trustworthy samurai.
Copy !req
245. What's more,
all you have to offer is food.
Copy !req
246. Only those out to fight
for the hell of it will agree.
Copy !req
247. Besides, I'm sick of fighting.
Copy !req
248. Age, I suppose.
Copy !req
249. Good thing
I wasn't born a peasant.
Copy !req
250. Better to be born a dog.
Goddamn it.
Copy !req
251. Go ahead - hang yourself and die!
You're better off dead!
Copy !req
252. Silence, you lout!
Copy !req
253. What's it to you?
I'm only telling the truth.
Copy !req
254. What truth? What the hell do you know
of these farmers' suffering?
Copy !req
255. Don't make me laugh!
Copy !req
256. Like you would know.
Copy !req
257. How dare you?
Copy !req
258. You heard right. If you know,
why don't you help them?
Copy !req
259. So you wanna fight?
Copy !req
260. That's enough.
Copy !req
261. Enough!
Copy !req
262. Hey, samurai, look at this.
Copy !req
263. This here's your dinner.
Copy !req
264. But what do you think
these blockheads eat?
Copy !req
265. Millet.
Copy !req
266. They eat millet
to feed you white rice.
Copy !req
267. This is the best they can offer.
What do you say to that?
Copy !req
268. - All right, then.
- What?
Copy !req
269. Quit your jabbering.
Copy !req
270. I won't let this rice go to waste.
Copy !req
271. Manzo and the others are back!
Copy !req
272. Where are Rikichi and Yohei?
Copy !req
273. They stayed behind.
We still need more samurai.
Copy !req
274. The samurai are coming?
Copy !req
275. They sure are.
Seven of 'em.
Copy !req
276. Seven?
Copy !req
277. Seven.
Copy !req
278. I was against it
because you said four, Old Man.
Copy !req
279. I figured we'd need
at least ten.
Copy !req
280. But if I'd said ten,
we'd have ended up with 15.
Copy !req
281. That's the way it goes.
Copy !req
282. Old Man, I'm worried.
Copy !req
283. The village girls will go crazy
over the samurai.
Copy !req
284. If the samurai touch 'em,
all hell will break loose.
Copy !req
285. Bandits are coming, you fool.
Copy !req
286. Your head is on the block,
Copy !req
287. and all you think of
are your whiskers?
Copy !req
288. Samurai, sir.
Copy !req
289. - You require my services?
- Yes, sir.
Copy !req
290. Who's to be my opponent?
Copy !req
291. Katsushiro.
Copy !req
292. Hide just inside the door.
Copy !req
293. Strike that ronin as he enters.
Copy !req
294. Here he comes.
Copy !req
295. Don't hold back.
Give him a real whack.
Copy !req
296. Excellent!
Copy !req
297. Please don't take offense.
I am Kambei Shimada.
Copy !req
298. We're seeking expert swordsmen
and have no time to waste.
Copy !req
299. Forgive me.
Copy !req
300. What's this about?
Copy !req
301. The reason better be good,
or I'll have to redeem my honor.
Copy !req
302. I humbly beg your pardon.
We only sought to test your skill.
Copy !req
303. We must soon contend
with a gang of bandits.
Copy !req
304. I see.
And whose clan do you serve?
Copy !req
305. It pains me to tell you,
but we're fighting for farmers.
Copy !req
306. - Farmers?
- That's right.
Copy !req
307. This job affords
no stipend and no reward.
Copy !req
308. But we can eat our fill
as long as we fight.
Copy !req
309. This is absurd!
Copy !req
310. My ambitions
are greater than that.
Copy !req
311. That's a shame.
Won't you reconsider?
Copy !req
312. I will not.
Copy !req
313. Sir, we lost a good man there.
Such a fine swordsman.
Copy !req
314. What's wrong?
Copy !req
315. That one samurai's good,
but how'll the other six be?
Copy !req
316. Enough of your worrying.
Copy !req
317. How can we know before they get here?
Don't worry till you've seen 'em.
Copy !req
318. That one there.
Copy !req
319. Excuse me, samurai, sir.
Copy !req
320. Just like last time?
Copy !req
321. Sure.
It's good practice for you.
Copy !req
322. Surely you jest.
Copy !req
323. No offense intended.
Copy !req
324. I'm with you.
Copy !req
325. But I have to say
Copy !req
326. that although I understand
the farmers' suffering
Copy !req
327. and understand
why you would take up their cause,
Copy !req
328. it's your character
that I find most compelling.
Copy !req
329. In life one finds friends
in the strangest places.
Copy !req
330. - What is your name?
- Gorobei Katayama.
Copy !req
331. A name fit for a giant, no?
Copy !req
332. Yohei, what are you doing?
Hurry and wash the rice.
Copy !req
333. Yohei!
Copy !req
334. What's wrong?
Copy !req
335. Someone stole the rice.
Copy !req
336. You idiot!
Didn't I warn you?
Copy !req
337. I was so careful.
Copy !req
338. I slept the whole night
hugging that rice jar.
Copy !req
339. Fine, then!
I'll get more from home!
Copy !req
340. But what'll we do
Copy !req
341. till you get back?
Copy !req
342. There's only a handful left.
Copy !req
343. Stop that, you idiot!
Copy !req
344. Hide that money.
The master's returning.
Copy !req
345. I ran into you
at just the right time.
Copy !req
346. So you're still alive.
I figured you'd long since left this earth.
Copy !req
347. Now tell me,
what happened after that?
Copy !req
348. I hid among the grasses
in the moat until dark.
Copy !req
349. When the outer walls tumbled down
on me in flames, I knew I was finished.
Copy !req
350. What ran through your mind
at that moment?
Copy !req
351. Nothing special.
Copy !req
352. Sick of fighting yet?
Copy !req
353. Truth is, there's a tough battle ahead
leading to neither money nor rank.
Copy !req
354. Will you join us?
- Yes.
Copy !req
355. This may be the one
that kills us.
Copy !req
356. Where are they
when you need 'em?
Copy !req
357. What do you need, sir?
Copy !req
358. Samurai.
Copy !req
359. There's a pretty poor excuse for one
in my backyard.
Copy !req
360. I couldn't believe his gumption.
Copy !req
361. He says,
“I'm hungry. Feed me.
Copy !req
362. I'm broke, though,
so I'll pay you by chopping wood.”
Copy !req
363. I like his frankness.
Copy !req
364. Never seen a man
split wood before?
Copy !req
365. Sure, but you do it
with such relish.
Copy !req
366. It's just my nature.
Sorry if it bothers you.
Copy !req
367. You're very good.
Copy !req
368. It's nothing compared
to how I cut down men.
Copy !req
369. - Have you cut down many?
- That I have.
Copy !req
370. There's no cutting me off
when I start cutting.
Copy !req
371. So I make it a point
to run away first.
Copy !req
372. A most excellent approach.
Copy !req
373. Why, thank you kindly.
Copy !req
374. Tell me, do you feel like
cutting down 30 bandits?
Copy !req
375. Let us commence!
Copy !req
376. Too bad.
Copy !req
377. It's a draw.
Copy !req
378. I'm afraid not.
Copy !req
379. I won.
Copy !req
380. That's ridiculous!
Copy !req
381. If these were steel,
you'd be dead now.
Copy !req
382. - Then we fight with steel!
- Don't throw your life away.
Copy !req
383. What?
Copy !req
384. Don't you see?
With steel blades, you'd die.
Copy !req
385. It's a waste of your life.
Copy !req
386. Wait! Don't try to flee.
Copy !req
387. Draw! This isn't
a contest of words!
Copy !req
388. This is preposterous.
Copy !req
389. There's no contest.
Copy !req
390. How did you fare?
Copy !req
391. We let a good fish get away.
An excellent swordsman.
Copy !req
392. They say the fish that gets away
looks bigger than it really is.
Copy !req
393. No.
Copy !req
394. I watched him cut a man down
with my own eyes.
Copy !req
395. It was amazing.
Copy !req
396. A man obsessed only
with testing the limits of his skill.
Copy !req
397. I doubt he'll join us.
Copy !req
398. - That's a shame.
- Indeed.
Copy !req
399. I did tell him
where we're staying, though.
Copy !req
400. And how did you fare?
Copy !req
401. - Caught one.
- I see.
Copy !req
402. - As a swordsman, barely mediocre.
- Barely mediocre?
Copy !req
403. But an honest, amusing man.
Copy !req
404. Something about him
brightens one's spirits.
Copy !req
405. He'll be a treasure in hard times.
Copy !req
406. Much obliged.
Copy !req
407. Actually, I did land one myself.
- The one dressed as a peddler?
Copy !req
408. That's right.
Copy !req
409. In fact, he's an old trusted friend.
Copy !req
410. I'll bring some water.
Copy !req
411. I'm Heihachi Hayashida.
Copy !req
412. A modest warrior
of the Wood-Chop School.
Copy !req
413. Just three more to go.
Copy !req
414. Three? Don't you mean two?
Copy !req
415. No, we can't afford
to take a child along.
Copy !req
416. Master!
Copy !req
417. I know, I know.
Copy !req
418. I know what you'll say.
Copy !req
419. I was once your age, you know.
Copy !req
420. Hone your skills,
Copy !req
421. then go to war
and do great things.
Copy !req
422. Then become lord
of your own castle and domain.
Copy !req
423. But as you dream those dreams,
before you know it,
Copy !req
424. your hair will turn
as gray as mine.
Copy !req
425. By that time
Copy !req
426. you've lost your parents
and you're all alone.
Copy !req
427. Tomorrow you go home.
Copy !req
428. You've learned a lot
these four or five days.
Copy !req
429. You have
fine stories to tell.
Copy !req
430. Please, sir.
I beg you to let him come along.
Copy !req
431. Why not let him come?
You call him a kid, but -
Copy !req
432. Actually,
Copy !req
433. kids work harder than adults.
Copy !req
434. But only if you treat them
like adults.
Copy !req
435. Then let's treat him
like an adult.
Copy !req
436. That means only two more.
Copy !req
437. Actually just one, it seems.
Copy !req
438. You wish to join us?
Copy !req
439. I'm very grateful.
Copy !req
440. - When do we depart?
- Tomorrow.
Copy !req
441. Tomorrow?
Copy !req
442. This is enough. We don't have time
to find the last one.
Copy !req
443. All right, then.
Copy !req
444. Master!
Copy !req
445. Master!
- All right.
Copy !req
446. - Master!
- All right! That's enough of that!
Copy !req
447. Hey, I just found
a real tough samurai.
Copy !req
448. There was a huge fight.
They were no match for him.
Copy !req
449. Never seen anything like it.
He's like a wild dog.
Copy !req
450. Someone stopped the fight.
They started drinking.
Copy !req
451. I told him about you.
Copy !req
452. He's on his way.
Copy !req
453. Shall we give him the usual?
Copy !req
454. What are you doing?
Copy !req
455. Testing him.
Copy !req
456. That's a dirty trick!
Copy !req
457. Hey, samurai!
- Just shut up and watch.
Copy !req
458. A true samurai won't get hit.
Copy !req
459. But this guy's drunk!
Copy !req
460. A samurai never drinks
enough to dull his wits.
Copy !req
461. I told you!
You guys are nuts.
Copy !req
462. What the -
Copy !req
463. Who the hell hit me?
Copy !req
464. YOU?
Copy !req
465. Who hit me?
Copy !req
466. YOU?
Copy !req
467. Damn bastard!
Copy !req
468. You again!
Copy !req
469. I see that bald head of yours
in my dreams!
Copy !req
470. Hey, you.
Copy !req
471. How dare you even ask me
if I'm a samurai!
Copy !req
472. You got some nerve!
Copy !req
473. Don't mess with me.
Copy !req
474. I may look like hell,
but I'm a real samurai!
Copy !req
475. I've been looking for you
ever since that day.
Copy !req
476. Wanted you to see this.
Copy !req
477. Look at this!
Copy !req
478. This is my family tree.
All my ancestors are here.
Copy !req
479. Damn you, trying to make
a fool outta me. Screw you.
Copy !req
480. Looky here.
Copy !req
481. Making a fool outta me.
Copy !req
482. My honorable self
is right here.
Copy !req
483. So this Kikuchiyo here
would be you?
Copy !req
484. That is correct.
Copy !req
485. “Kikuchiyo,
born February 17, 1574.”
Copy !req
486. What's so damned funny?
Copy !req
487. You hardly look
13 years old to me.
Copy !req
488. If you are in fact
the Kikuchiyo listed here,
Copy !req
489. you'd now be precisely
13 years old.
Copy !req
490. Where'd you steal
this family tree?
Copy !req
491. Steal it? Shit!
Copy !req
492. Damn jerks.
Copy !req
493. To hell with samurai.
Copy !req
494. To hell with samurai!
Copy !req
495. Hey, you bastard!
Copy !req
496. Come back here!
Copy !req
497. Goddamn it,
you son of a bitch!
Copy !req
498. What's wrong, teenager?
Here you are.
Copy !req
499. Damn you!
Copy !req
500. Come back here!
Copy !req
501. What's wrong, Lord Kikuchiyo?
Copy !req
502. What's the matter, junior?
Copy !req
503. Screw samurai!
Copy !req
504. - Is he really a samurai?
- In his own mind, anyway.
Copy !req
505. Take me too!
Copy !req
506. Hey, Kikuchiyo.
Copy !req
507. Guard your treasure.
Copy !req
508. Let me go too!
Copy !req
509. What is it, Father?
Copy !req
510. What is it?
Copy !req
511. What are you staring at?
Copy !req
512. Shino, cut off your hair.
Copy !req
513. Cut your hair
and dress like a man.
Copy !req
514. - What are you talking about?
- Just cut it off!
Copy !req
515. It's only because I love you.
No telling what those samurai'll do!
Copy !req
516. No!
Copy !req
517. No, I won't!
Copy !req
518. Shino!
Copy !req
519. He's a fool.
Copy !req
520. But Manzo knows those samurai
better than anyone.
Copy !req
521. If he cut off his daughter's hair,
he must have good reason.
Copy !req
522. You've only got sons,
so you're safe, but we -
Copy !req
523. Goddamn it!
Now I understand.
Copy !req
524. So you agree to hide my daughter
at your place across the bridge?
Copy !req
525. Idiot! I meant that I see
what Manzo's up to.
Copy !req
526. That rascal doesn't care about the village,
only about his daughter.
Copy !req
527. Damn him!
Copy !req
528. Look what you've done!
Copy !req
529. Now the whole village is crazed.
Copy !req
530. Every family
with a girl's gone mad.
Copy !req
531. How do you plan
to set this right?
Copy !req
532. The samurai will show up
any day now.
Copy !req
533. Come on.
We're seeing the Old Man.
Copy !req
534. There's nothing to see here!
Go home!
Copy !req
535. Go home!
Copy !req
536. We can't let the samurai
see us like this.
Copy !req
537. He's still following us.
Copy !req
538. Where did Kikuchiyo go?
Copy !req
539. Think he gave up?
Copy !req
540. It's funny.
Copy !req
541. Now that he's gone,
it's almost a little...
Copy !req
542. lonely.
Copy !req
543. This way.
Copy !req
544. Oh, hell!
Copy !req
545. So that's our castle, eh?
Copy !req
546. No way I'm gonna die
in that dungheap.
Copy !req
547. No one asked you to.
Copy !req
548. We're back!
The samurai have arrived!
Copy !req
549. The samurai are here!
Copy !req
550. What's wrong with you?
The samurai are here!
Copy !req
551. Hey, what's wrong?
Copy !req
552. What's the matter?
Copy !req
553. This is a fine welcome.
Copy !req
554. What's the meaning of this?
Copy !req
555. Hey, what's going on?
The samurai have arrived!
Copy !req
556. - We'll go see the Old Man.
- The Old Man?
Copy !req
557. Whatever happens in the village,
the Old Man -
Copy !req
558. He's the village elder?
Copy !req
559. An audience with the village elder.
This is truly an honor.
Copy !req
560. Well, let's go.
Copy !req
561. I know they're being foolish.
Copy !req
562. All farmers ever do is worry,
Copy !req
563. whether the rain falls,
the sun shines, or the wind blows.
Copy !req
564. In short,
Copy !req
565. all they know is fear.
Copy !req
566. Their behavior today...
Copy !req
567. is also due simply to fear.
Copy !req
568. But Old Man,
why do the villagers fear us?
Copy !req
569. What can they expect from us
under such circumstances?
Copy !req
570. Samurai, sirs!
Copy !req
571. Samurai, please!
Copy !req
572. Quiet down!
Copy !req
573. Don't panic. Calm down.
Copy !req
574. I want clear answers.
Copy !req
575. Where are the bandits
coming from?
Copy !req
576. - The mountains!
- No, the road!
Copy !req
577. Who saw the bandits?
Come forward.
Copy !req
578. No one saw any bandits?
Copy !req
579. Then who sounded the alarm?
Copy !req
580. I did!
Copy !req
581. Outta the way.
Copy !req
582. What's with the faces?
Copy !req
583. Don't worry.
No bandits have come.
Copy !req
584. Hey, blackheads.
Copy !req
585. Remember how you welcomed us
when we got here?
Copy !req
586. But as soon as I bang on this,
Copy !req
587. “Samurai, sirs!
Samurai, please!”
Copy !req
588. You're practically groveling!
Copy !req
589. Got what you deserved,
you mud snails.
Copy !req
590. Got a problem, gramps?
Copy !req
591. Nope.
Copy !req
592. All's well now.
Copy !req
593. Looks like he's good
for something after all.
Copy !req
594. There are seven of us at last.
Copy !req
595. Sorry it's so dirty.
Copy !req
596. But where will you sleep
if we take your home?
Copy !req
597. - In the barn.
- With your horse?
Copy !req
598. The bandits
got my horse last year.
Copy !req
599. A barn's not so bad
with a wife to snuggle up to.
Copy !req
600. I don't have a wife!
Copy !req
601. What's the matter, you fool?
Copy !req
602. Jerk.
Copy !req
603. By the way,
what's your real name?
Copy !req
604. I don't remember.
Copy !req
605. Give me a new one that fits.
Copy !req
606. Then Kikuchiyo it is.
Copy !req
607. Fits you perfectly.
Copy !req
608. How would you attack
this village?
Copy !req
609. I'd charge from this mountain.
Copy !req
610. I agree.
Along this road.
Copy !req
611. WEST
Copy !req
612. And what's the best defense?
Copy !req
613. Shichiroji knows what to do.
Copy !req
614. See these logs?
He'll make a fence to block the horses.
Copy !req
615. Indeed.
Your trusty right-hand man.
Copy !req
616. All right!
Copy !req
617. Listen.
Copy !req
618. Nothing forces you to run
like a battle.
Copy !req
619. You run when you attack,
you run when you retreat.
Copy !req
620. When you can't run anymore,
you die.
Copy !req
621. SOUTH
Copy !req
622. We'll flood these fields
after they harvest the barley.
Copy !req
623. That'll make a good defense.
But will we have time?
Copy !req
624. Indeed.
Copy !req
625. Charge!
Copy !req
626. Pretend I'm a bandit
and stab me.
Copy !req
627. Charge!
Copy !req
628. Come on!
Copy !req
629. Next.
Copy !req
630. Next.
Copy !req
631. What's wrong with all of you?
Copy !req
632. EAST
Copy !req
633. Destroying this bridge
will foil an assault from the east.
Copy !req
634. But what about the houses
on the other side?
Copy !req
635. They'll have to evacuate those.
Copy !req
636. And the mill?
Copy !req
637. The Old Man's
not going to go quietly.
Copy !req
638. Listen now.
The enemy is scary.
Copy !req
639. Everybody's scared.
Copy !req
640. But the other side's
scared of us too.
Copy !req
641. Just great.
Copy !req
642. You all make great scarecrows.
Copy !req
643. Problem is, the enemy
isn't a bunch of sparrows and crows!
Copy !req
644. You there, chewing your cud.
Can you cut that out?
Copy !req
645. This isn't a cow shed!
Copy !req
646. Look at the bunch of you.
Copy !req
647. Shit!
Copy !req
648. First in line, step forward!
Copy !req
649. I'm talking to you!
Copy !req
650. You!
Copy !req
651. Look here! You gotta pay
a mon each to watch the show!
Copy !req
652. What's this?
Copy !req
653. - A spear, sir.
- Idiot.
Copy !req
654. Where the hell
did you get it?
Copy !req
655. Did it sprout up in those hills?
Copy !req
656. I know perfectly well.
Copy !req
657. You hunted down retreating warriors
and took their weapons.
Copy !req
658. If you've got one,
you must have more.
Copy !req
659. Fess up, damn it!
Copy !req
660. NORTH
Copy !req
661. What a peaceful grove.
But it's also a death trap.
Copy !req
662. Katsushiro.
Copy !req
663. We're going.
- I'll be right there.
Copy !req
664. As I said,
he's still a child.
Copy !req
665. Are you from the village?
Copy !req
666. Are you a girl?
Copy !req
667. A boy?
Copy !req
668. Then where's your spear?
Copy !req
669. Is this any time for an able-bodied man
to be picking flowers?
Copy !req
670. Come here!
I'll teach you.
Copy !req
671. Come here!
Copy !req
672. Why, you!
Copy !req
673. This is fine, and this too.
Copy !req
674. But this is a problem.
Copy !req
675. Heave ho! Heave ho!
Copy !req
676. Get back, the rest of you!
Copy !req
677. Stand up straight!
Copy !req
678. What a haul!
Copy !req
679. What's all this?
Copy !req
680. Plunder from defeated warriors.
Copy !req
681. Where did you find it?
Copy !req
682. Here in the village?
- Yep, over at Manzo's.
Copy !req
683. What's the matter?
Copy !req
684. Don't you like 'em?
Copy !req
685. This is good stuff.
Copy !req
686. What's wrong?
Copy !req
687. You said you wanted armor,
spears and bows. Now you got 'em.
Copy !req
688. Bastard!
You call yourself a samurai?
Copy !req
689. Those farmers killed samurai
to get these.
Copy !req
690. - I know that.
- Then why the hell -
Copy !req
691. That's enough!
Copy !req
692. You can't understand
unless you've been hunted.
Copy !req
693. It's nothing.
Get outta here.
Copy !req
694. Now I want to kill them all.
Copy !req
695. Well, that's just fine and dandy!
Copy !req
696. What did ya think
these farmers were anyway?
Copy !req
697. Buddhas or something?
Copy !req
698. Don't make me laugh!
Copy !req
699. There's no creature on earth
as wily as a farmer!
Copy !req
700. Ask 'em for rice, barley,
anything,
Copy !req
701. and all they ever say is,
“We're all out.”
Copy !req
702. But they've got it.
They've got everything.
Copy !req
703. Dig under the floorboards.
If it's not there, try the barn.
Copy !req
704. You'll find plenty.
Jars of rice, salt, beans, sake!
Copy !req
705. Go up in the mountains.
They have hidden fields.
Copy !req
706. They kowtow and lie,
playing innocent the whole time.
Copy !req
707. You name it,
they'll cheat you on it!
Copy !req
708. After a battle, they hunt down
the losers with their spears.
Copy !req
709. Listen to me!
Copy !req
710. Farmers are misers, weasels,
Copy !req
711. and crybabies!
Copy !req
712. They're mean, stupid
Copy !req
713. murderers!
Copy !req
714. Damn!
I could laugh till I cry!
Copy !req
715. But tell me this:
Who turned them into such monsters?
Copy !req
716. You did!
You samurai did!
Copy !req
717. Damn you to hell!
Copy !req
718. In war, you burn their villages,
Copy !req
719. trample their fields,
steal their food,
Copy !req
720. work them like slaves,
rape their women,
Copy !req
721. and kill 'em if they resist.
Copy !req
722. What do you expect 'em to do?
Copy !req
723. What the hell are farmers
supposed to do?
Copy !req
724. Damn it! Goddamn it!
Copy !req
725. You were born a farmer,
weren't you?
Copy !req
726. What is it now?
Copy !req
727. Nothing at all.
Everything's fine.
Copy !req
728. It's me.
Copy !req
729. I'm sleeping here
from now on.
Copy !req
730. Those guys cramp my style.
Copy !req
731. Idiot! Stop cowering!
Copy !req
732. This is your place!
Copy !req
733. You hand over your house
and sleep in a barn,
Copy !req
734. and still you can't stand up
for yourself.
Copy !req
735. Get to sleep!
Copy !req
736. Brings back memories.
Copy !req
737. Sure is quiet.
Copy !req
738. On a day like this, it's hard
to imagine bandits on that mountain.
Copy !req
739. Damn it all,
I need a girl!
Copy !req
740. - Where are you going?
- The hills.
Copy !req
741. - The hills?
- To practice.
Copy !req
742. No girls up there.
Copy !req
743. Sometimes you really
hit the nail on the head.
Copy !req
744. What are you making there?
Copy !req
745. - A flag.
- A flag?
Copy !req
746. It doesn't feel right in battle
without a banner to raise high.
Copy !req
747. What do the symbols mean?
Copy !req
748. This represents a field:
that is, the farmers and this village.
Copy !req
749. - And those circles?
- Those are us.
Copy !req
750. There's only six.
You leaving me out?
Copy !req
751. No, this triangle's Lord Kikuchiyo.
Copy !req
752. That's a good one!
Copy !req
753. It's real rice.
Copy !req
754. Go ahead. Eat.
- But -
Copy !req
755. Rikichi gave me some millet.
Copy !req
756. I could barely get it down.
Copy !req
757. Go ahead. Eat.
Copy !req
758. Hurry up and eat.
Copy !req
759. If you're embarrassed, I'll go.
Copy !req
760. I'm not going to eat it.
Copy !req
761. Why not?
I went to a lot of trouble.
Copy !req
762. No, I just -
Copy !req
763. I know you did, so I'll take it
to Kyuemon's grandma.
Copy !req
764. Kyuemon's grandma?
Copy !req
765. Rikichi, I'm full.
I'll save the rest for later.
Copy !req
766. Go ahead and eat.
Copy !req
767. Take my leftovers this time.
Copy !req
768. What's this?
What are you up to?
Copy !req
769. What's going on?
Copy !req
770. How terrible.
Copy !req
771. Doesn't she have family?
- The bandits got them all.
Copy !req
772. I...
Copy !req
773. want to die quickly.
Copy !req
774. I want to die soon
Copy !req
775. and leave this suffering behind.
Copy !req
776. But you know...
Copy !req
777. the other world may be
Copy !req
778. just as full of suffering
as this one.
Copy !req
779. It's not.
Copy !req
780. In that world
there's no war and no bandits.
Copy !req
781. There's no suffering there,
grandma.
Copy !req
782. How the hell would you know?
Have you been there?
Copy !req
783. Why the hell
are you always screaming?
Copy !req
784. I hate wimps.
Copy !req
785. Worms like her make me sick!
Copy !req
786. Pissing and grumbling
about everything.
Copy !req
787. Shit!
I want to do something wild!
Copy !req
788. Save your spit and fire
for the bandits.
Copy !req
789. Excuse me.
Copy !req
790. Excuse me, but why did you -
Copy !req
791. You saw us today, didn't you?
Copy !req
792. Me and the -
Copy !req
793. - The girl?
- Yes.
Copy !req
794. Why didn't you -
- Tell them? You want me to?
Copy !req
795. We want rice!
White rice!
Copy !req
796. You little brats!
There's no rice!
Copy !req
797. Quit yapping!
Copy !req
798. If you've got the strength
to scream, “We want rice!”
Copy !req
799. then you don't need it!
Copy !req
800. Listen here,
you little piss pants.
Copy !req
801. This is all the rice there is.
Copy !req
802. If we give you any more,
we'll get all -
Copy !req
803. That's how it is.
Copy !req
804. Say, any of you got
a pretty sister?
Copy !req
805. How about you?
You got one?
Copy !req
806. So, Old Man,
when is the harvest?
Copy !req
807. In ten days.
Copy !req
808. How quickly can you do it?
Copy !req
809. No less than three days.
Copy !req
810. We'll flood the fields
when you're done.
Copy !req
811. You see, we want to create
a moat to the south of the village.
Copy !req
812. It'll keep the horses out.
Copy !req
813. We don't need all the fields.
One patch per family will do.
Copy !req
814. Then...
Copy !req
815. it'll take at least a day to flatten
the paths and draw the water.
Copy !req
816. Understood.
Copy !req
817. There's one other thing.
Copy !req
818. You need to leave the houses this side
of the bridge, and the mill too.
Copy !req
819. Father!
Copy !req
820. You want us to move out?
Copy !req
821. I know it's tough.
Copy !req
822. But there's no choice.
Copy !req
823. We can't possibly protect
the outlying houses.
Copy !req
824. Listen carefully. You'll soon
begin harvesting the barley.
Copy !req
825. The bandits will come
when you're done.
Copy !req
826. We have to assume that.
Copy !req
827. Therefore we prepare
for battle as we harvest.
Copy !req
828. We'll harvest not as families
but as squads.
Copy !req
829. Starting tomorrow,
each squad will live and work as one.
Copy !req
830. Understood? Starting tomorrow,
nobody acts on his own.
Copy !req
831. Hey, everybody.
Copy !req
832. Give your wives
plenty of lovin' tonight, you hear?
Copy !req
833. This is all a load of crap!
Copy !req
834. Everyone from across the bridge,
follow me.
Copy !req
835. Throw down your spears.
Copy !req
836. Why should we abandon
our homes to protect theirs?
Copy !req
837. That's right.
We'll protect our homes ourselves.
Copy !req
838. Stop!
Copy !req
839. Pick up your spears!
Copy !req
840. Return to your line!
Copy !req
841. Fall in!
Copy !req
842. Squad formation!
Copy !req
843. Where's Yohei gone?
Copy !req
844. Where the hell's Yohei?
Copy !req
845. There you are, you idiot!
Copy !req
846. There are three outlying houses,
Copy !req
847. but 20 in the village.
Copy !req
848. We can't risk 20
to save three.
Copy !req
849. And if this village is destroyed,
Copy !req
850. those three cannot survive
on their own.
Copy !req
851. Is that clear?
This is the nature of war:
Copy !req
852. By protecting others,
you save yourself.
Copy !req
853. If you only think of yourself,
Copy !req
854. you'll only destroy yourself.
Copy !req
855. From this day forward,
anyone caught doing that...
Copy !req
856. INTERMISSION
Copy !req
857. Hot damn!
Copy !req
858. Look at all those girls!
Copy !req
859. Hey, Yohei!
Copy !req
860. Where the hell
have you been hiding these girls?
Copy !req
861. You devil.
Copy !req
862. Hey, lend me your scythe.
Copy !req
863. I'll cut three times your share.
Copy !req
864. In return,
we get nice and friendly, eh?
Copy !req
865. - Rikichi.
- Yes.
Copy !req
866. It seems the married couples
are the most productive.
Copy !req
867. Time you got yourself a wife.
Copy !req
868. Why do you always get so mad?
I just said you should -
Copy !req
869. Katsushiro, go after him.
Copy !req
870. Running off at a time like this.
Copy !req
871. Rikichi!
Copy !req
872. Rikichi!
Copy !req
873. Shino, what are you gawking at?
Copy !req
874. What's this? A bear's den?
Copy !req
875. This was done with a scythe.
Copy !req
876. Was it Rikichi?
Copy !req
877. Yes, though I didn't actually
see him do it.
Copy !req
878. I lost him for a while,
Copy !req
879. but then I spotted him
leaving this grove.
Copy !req
880. He was furious,
soaked in sweat.
Copy !req
881. What did you say to him?
Copy !req
882. Nothing. Just that he should
hurry up and find a wife.
Copy !req
883. Somethings upsetting the little bugger,
but he won't say what.
Copy !req
884. You can see it
all over his face.
Copy !req
885. Those lips of his
are bolted up tight as a house.
Copy !req
886. Why don't you try to open them up?
Copy !req
887. Who's there?
Copy !req
888. It's me.
Copy !req
889. All clear?
- Yes.
Copy !req
890. Have a seat.
Let's have a little chat.
Copy !req
891. I think talking...
Copy !req
892. is a good thing.
Copy !req
893. Whatever your burden may be,
talking can ease it.
Copy !req
894. You, for example,
seem pretty tight-lipped,
Copy !req
895. but if you're suffering,
you shouldn't bottle it up.
Copy !req
896. Letting out your feelings
bit by bit can work wonders.
Copy !req
897. I've got nothing to say.
Copy !req
898. Time to head out.
Copy !req
899. Shall we wake him?
Copy !req
900. No, let the kid sleep.
Copy !req
901. Shino.
Copy !req
902. I swear he just said “Shino.”
Copy !req
903. Sounds like a woman's name.
Copy !req
904. Even kids can be charmers
in their dreams.
Copy !req
905. Where shall we start our rounds?
Copy !req
906. The place that worries us most,
of course.
Copy !req
907. Who's there?
Copy !req
908. Who's there?
Copy !req
909. Come out here!
Copy !req
910. Who's there?
Copy !req
911. Kikuchiyo.
Copy !req
912. You're lucky it was us.
Copy !req
913. If we'd been bandits,
you'd be headless right now.
Copy !req
914. Yohei.
Copy !req
915. What's this?
Copy !req
916. That's my horse, sir.
Copy !req
917. I thought it was a big old mouse.
Copy !req
918. The sparrows chirp, chirp, chirp
Copy !req
919. The crows caw, caw, caw
Copy !req
920. I wonder why
the bandits aren't coming.
Copy !req
921. What a waste if they don't.
Think how much we feed those samurai.
Copy !req
922. Idiot!
It's best if they don't come!
Copy !req
923. A nag like that
can't carry your weight!
Copy !req
924. Yohei's horse is too worn out.
Copy !req
925. Please stop. Yohei'll be in tears
if you break its leg.
Copy !req
926. A skilled horseman
can make even a nag soar into the sky.
Copy !req
927. Not bad.
Copy !req
928. Very fine indeed!
Copy !req
929. They seem to be having fun.
Copy !req
930. The threshing's done,
and still no bandits.
Copy !req
931. Everyone's saying
they might not come after all.
Copy !req
932. A tempting thought.
Copy !req
933. But when you think you're safe
is precisely when you're most vulnerable.
Copy !req
934. Send them back
to their posts.
Copy !req
935. I wish I'd been born
into a samurai family.
Copy !req
936. A farmer's life is too cruel.
Copy !req
937. My life has been so easy,
I'm ashamed.
Copy !req
938. That's not what I meant.
Copy !req
939. It's because you're a samurai
and I'm a farmer.
Copy !req
940. But I don't -
Copy !req
941. it's all right. I don't mind.
We can't know
Copy !req
942. what the future holds!
Copy !req
943. Coward!
Act like a samurai!
Copy !req
944. Three suspicious characters
on the western road.
Copy !req
945. - The villagers haven't noticed?
- Not yet.
Copy !req
946. We can't have them
sounding the alarm.
Copy !req
947. I saw three horses
up in the hills.
Copy !req
948. I think they're bandits.
- We know.
Copy !req
949. - So they're here.
- How did you know?
Copy !req
950. How could I not?
This one here was in such a panic.
Copy !req
951. Where are they coming from?
The mountains or the west?
Copy !req
952. The west.
Copy !req
953. Bandits!
Copy !req
954. Send everyone to their houses.
There are only three of them.
Copy !req
955. Tell them to keep quiet
no matter what.
Copy !req
956. They're probably scouts.
We can't let them see any samurai.
Copy !req
957. What is it?
Copy !req
958. Bandits?
Copy !req
959. Bandits, eh?
Where are they?
Copy !req
960. Quiet!
Copy !req
961. Where are they, Shichiroji?
Copy !req
962. Beyond the fence.
Copy !req
963. No doubt about it - they're scouts.
Copy !req
964. The fence took them by surprise.
Copy !req
965. They don't seem
to realize we're here.
Copy !req
966. With luck they'll report
there are only farmers here.
Copy !req
967. Hey, where is everyone?
Copy !req
968. That idiot!
Copy !req
969. Kikuchiyo!
Copy !req
970. Hey, I hear the bandits are here.
Copy !req
971. You fool.
Copy !req
972. Too late.
They've seen us.
Copy !req
973. If they report back that samurai
are here, we're finished.
Copy !req
974. I'll kill them.
The mountain's my territory.
Copy !req
975. I was just -
Copy !req
976. Enough. You can make up for it
by getting one.
Copy !req
977. Head them off at -
Copy !req
978. I know, at their horses.
Take us there.
Copy !req
979. Katsushiro!
Copy !req
980. Just watch, you understand?
Copy !req
981. Those are some horses!
Copy !req
982. Wait in this hollow.
Copy !req
983. - What do you plan to do?
- Who, me?
Copy !req
984. Katsushiro.
Copy !req
985. You can come out now.
Copy !req
986. Help me!
Copy !req
987. Back off!
Copy !req
988. He's a captive who has confessed.
He's begging for his life.
Copy !req
989. You can't just
chop him to pieces.
Copy !req
990. Stay out of this!
Copy !req
991. Let me do it! Scum!
Copy !req
992. All right.
Copy !req
993. Let her avenge her son's death.
Copy !req
994. Someone help her!
Copy !req
995. I'll do it!
Copy !req
996. - That bandit said their fort -
- it's hardly a fort.
Copy !req
997. It's full of holes,
like Yohei's underwear.
Copy !req
998. - Easy to sneak in.
- Let's attack at night.
Copy !req
999. They have 40 men.
We'd usually pick off a few first.
Copy !req
1000. Wait. We can't afford
to lose a single man,
Copy !req
1001. even if we kill five
for every one lost.
Copy !req
1002. - War is always a gamble.
- Three of us can take 10 of them.
Copy !req
1003. Rikichi.
Copy !req
1004. How far away is their hideout?
Copy !req
1005. At least a day.
Copy !req
1006. Hey, we've got
three of their horses.
Copy !req
1007. Half a day by horse.
Copy !req
1008. Very well. Let's do it.
Copy !req
1009. If we leave now,
we'll arrive before dawn.
Copy !req
1010. But who should go?
Copy !req
1011. Not you.
Copy !req
1012. And me makes three.
Copy !req
1013. They need a guide!
Copy !req
1014. There aren't enough horses.
Copy !req
1015. There's Yohei's horse.
You ride that.
Copy !req
1016. The only man
to master that steed
Copy !req
1017. is Lord Kikuchiyo himself.
Copy !req
1018. Whoa! What the hell?
Copy !req
1019. It's the other way!
Copy !req
1020. Stupid horse!
Copy !req
1021. This way, you useless mule!
Copy !req
1022. You call yourself a horse?
Copy !req
1023. You should be
ashamed of yourself!
Copy !req
1024. Hey, wait!
Copy !req
1025. Please stop! I apologize!
Copy !req
1026. I'm sorry!
Copy !req
1027. Hey, let's set the place on fire!
Copy !req
1028. Cut 'em down as they run out!
Copy !req
1029. Serves you right!
Copy !req
1030. We did it!
Copy !req
1031. Take that, you sons of bitches!
Copy !req
1032. Heihachi!
Copy !req
1033. Are you crazy?
Copy !req
1034. Stupid idiot!
Copy !req
1035. Look what you've done!
Who is she to you?
Copy !req
1036. She's my wife!
Copy !req
1037. Heihachi, hang on!
Copy !req
1038. You said...
Copy !req
1039. he'd be a treasure
in hard times.
Copy !req
1040. The hard times
have only just begun.
Copy !req
1041. Stop crying!
Copy !req
1042. Damn fool!
Copy !req
1043. Stop crying!
Copy !req
1044. Goddamn!
Here they come!
Copy !req
1045. Take note:
They have three muskets.
Copy !req
1046. Twenty riders bound north,
13 south.
Copy !req
1047. - Muskets?
- Three in all.
Copy !req
1048. Take the south, and watch out
for those muskets.
Copy !req
1049. Retreat! Retreat!
Copy !req
1050. - The 12 headed south have turned east.
- Wasn't that 13?
Copy !req
1051. An arrow got one of them.
Copy !req
1052. Good old Gorobei.
Copy !req
1053. Make sure the eastern bridge is out,
and watch out for -
Copy !req
1054. The muskets!
Copy !req
1055. Take the north.
That's where we'll battle it out.
Copy !req
1056. If you knew that, why didn't
you build a fence there too?
Copy !req
1057. Every great castle
needs a breach.
Copy !req
1058. Draw the enemy there and attack.
You can't win by defense alone.
Copy !req
1059. Use your balls,
if you've got any!
Copy !req
1060. Take it away, damn it!
Copy !req
1061. Twelve riders are on the way.
Hurry with the bridge!
Copy !req
1062. Are you blind?
What do you think we're doing?
Copy !req
1063. And he said
to watch out for the muskets.
Copy !req
1064. What kinda idiot
you take me for?
Copy !req
1065. Where are you going?
Copy !req
1066. We're looking for Father.
We can't find him anywhere.
Copy !req
1067. Father intends to die in that barn.
That's what he's always wanted.
Copy !req
1068. Stubborn old fool!
Copy !req
1069. Hurry up and get him!
Copy !req
1070. Get out of our way!
Copy !req
1071. What are you doing?
Hurry up!
Copy !req
1072. - On this mountain -
- Twenty riders.
Copy !req
1073. And 12 to the east.
Copy !req
1074. Right.
Copy !req
1075. This won't do.
They're all scared stiff.
Copy !req
1076. Good! Again!
Copy !req
1077. Again!
Copy !req
1078. Shichiroji's at it.
Let's fire ours up too.
Copy !req
1079. Everybody out here!
Copy !req
1080. Raise your spears
and give the battle cry.
Copy !req
1081. Again!
Copy !req
1082. Damn 'em, listen to that!
We can beat 'em!
Copy !req
1083. Yohei, what's that look for?
Again!
Copy !req
1084. Take cover!
Copy !req
1085. Here they come!
Copy !req
1086. Goddamn 'em!
Copy !req
1087. Hey, where do you think
you're going?
Copy !req
1088. Oh, no, you don't!
Copy !req
1089. Don't panic!
Copy !req
1090. Goddamn you!
Copy !req
1091. They're burning!
Copy !req
1092. Damn bastards!
Copy !req
1093. Back to your posts, everyone!
Copy !req
1094. Dear!
Copy !req
1095. They're just rickety shacks!
Copy !req
1096. Everybody, back to your posts!
Copy !req
1097. Goddamn it!
Copy !req
1098. YOU dogs!
Copy !req
1099. That's the Old Man's house!
Copy !req
1100. Where's the Old Man?
What about that couple?
Copy !req
1101. And the little brat?
What the hell's going on?
Copy !req
1102. Stop!
You can't abandon your post!
Copy !req
1103. Kikuchiyo, come back!
Copy !req
1104. Kikuchiyo!
Copy !req
1105. Where's the Old Man
and your husband?
Copy !req
1106. She's been speared.
How'd she make it this far?
Copy !req
1107. Let's go!
Copy !req
1108. Damn it, what is it now?
Copy !req
1109. This baby... is me.
Copy !req
1110. This is just
what happened to me!
Copy !req
1111. Here we go!
Copy !req
1112. What the hell?
Copy !req
1113. What the hell
were you staring at?
Copy !req
1114. Idiot!
Copy !req
1115. No one wounded?
Copy !req
1116. Good.
You did a fine job.
Copy !req
1117. Fine job!
Copy !req
1118. Gunpowder!
Take cover!
Copy !req
1119. Manzo!
Copy !req
1120. Where were you hit?
Copy !req
1121. Shino! Shino!
Bring me my daughter.
Copy !req
1122. Don't bother.
Copy !req
1123. If this kills you,
you'd die of a fleabite.
Copy !req
1124. You make a ruckus
over a little scratch
Copy !req
1125. and blow your daughter's cover
in the process. Nice going!
Copy !req
1126. You don't have
to chase them all down.
Copy !req
1127. That's far enough.
Well done.
Copy !req
1128. Who are you?
Copy !req
1129. Rikichi.
Copy !req
1130. They've attacked from the east,
west and south
Copy !req
1131. and run away each time
with their tails between their legs.
Copy !req
1132. This is the only approach left.
Copy !req
1133. We don't know
if they'll come tonight,
Copy !req
1134. but when they do,
they'll mass their forces here.
Copy !req
1135. Perhaps, but...
Copy !req
1136. I don't hear a thing.
Copy !req
1137. Nevertheless,
Copy !req
1138. this will surely
be the focus of their attack.
Copy !req
1139. I'll prove it to you in a minute.
Copy !req
1140. Good work.
Copy !req
1141. Now poke that scarecrow out
from behind those trees.
Copy !req
1142. I'd say tomorrow morning
Copy !req
1143. they'll attack us here
with everything they've got.
Copy !req
1144. And we'll let them in.
Copy !req
1145. Don't worry.
I mean we'll let one in.
Copy !req
1146. Two at most.
Copy !req
1147. Once they're in,
we form a wall again with our spears.
Copy !req
1148. The one or two who get in
are as good as dead.
Copy !req
1149. We can cook 'em up
any way we want.
Copy !req
1150. We'll pick them off patiently,
one by one, until the final showdown.
Copy !req
1151. Those muskets worry me.
Copy !req
1152. If only we could
get one of them.
Copy !req
1153. I'll go.
I swear I'll get one!
Copy !req
1154. No. You're looking to die.
I'll go.
Copy !req
1155. Footsteps! Listen!
Copy !req
1156. That's enough.
Get some rest.
Copy !req
1157. It's true! I hear them!
Listen.
Copy !req
1158. I said enough.
Copy !req
1159. You're exhausted.
Get some rest.
Copy !req
1160. I hear them.
Copy !req
1161. Two more down.
Copy !req
1162. What is it?
Copy !req
1163. State your business.
I'm going to get some sleep.
Copy !req
1164. You are a magnificent person.
Copy !req
1165. I've wanted to tell you so
for some time.
Copy !req
1166. They're here.
Copy !req
1167. We'll let one in.
Copy !req
1168. We're letting one in!
Copy !req
1169. Remember, after the first one's in,
jump out with your spears.
Copy !req
1170. Here they come.
Copy !req
1171. Step aside!
Copy !req
1172. Good work.
Copy !req
1173. What's wrong? You did well.
Copy !req
1174. Here he comes! Scatter!
Copy !req
1175. Fall back! Fall back!
Copy !req
1176. After them!
Copy !req
1177. Another on the way!
Copy !req
1178. Here he comes.
Copy !req
1179. Watch this!
Copy !req
1180. Having fun with your horsey?
Copy !req
1181. They've stopped.
Won't fall for that trick again, eh?
Copy !req
1182. They're all wimps!
Who's scared of bandits anyway?
Copy !req
1183. That little skirmish just cost them four.
Kyuzo got two last night.
Copy !req
1184. That man is a true samurai.
Copy !req
1185. He's fearless,
his swordsmanship is amazing,
Copy !req
1186. and yet he's kind too.
Copy !req
1187. He never once boasted
about capturing that musket.
Copy !req
1188. He walked into a forest filled with bandits
as if on a mushroom hunt.
Copy !req
1189. Fascinating.
I'm not bored at all, I swear.
Copy !req
1190. Hey, Yohei.
Copy !req
1191. Take over for me.
Copy !req
1192. What's that face for?
Copy !req
1193. There's no danger here now.
Copy !req
1194. You make a great scarecrow.
Copy !req
1195. Hear me good!
Copy !req
1196. If anybody else turns yellow -
Copy !req
1197. Out Of my Way!
Copy !req
1198. Hey!
Copy !req
1199. How's it goin'?
Copy !req
1200. Man, they're a pain.
Copy !req
1201. Won't be long now.
Copy !req
1202. Everything's upside down.
Copy !req
1203. They burn us out,
and we starve like farmers.
Copy !req
1204. Quit your moaning.
There are better times ahead.
Copy !req
1205. Do your part, man.
Copy !req
1206. Hey, it's me!
Copy !req
1207. Serves you right, you dogs!
Copy !req
1208. Fool!
Copy !req
1209. Why did you leave your post?
Copy !req
1210. Just look at this!
Copy !req
1211. Don't scold me, man.
My post is fine.
Copy !req
1212. There's nothing heroic
about selfishly grabbing for glory.
Copy !req
1213. Listen to me:
War is not fought alone!
Copy !req
1214. Gorobei and Kyuzo,
guard this post!
Copy !req
1215. Let no one pass!
Copy !req
1216. Stop, you asses!
Copy !req
1217. Damn you!
Copy !req
1218. Damn it! Two made it in!
Copy !req
1219. Goddamn it!
Copy !req
1220. Where's Yohei?
Copy !req
1221. Yohei!
Copy !req
1222. Yohei!
Copy !req
1223. I defended my post.
Copy !req
1224. Don't give up, Yohei!
Copy !req
1225. Go ahead, shoot me!
Copy !req
1226. Shichiroji, take over!
Copy !req
1227. Gorobei!
Copy !req
1228. Gorobei!
Copy !req
1229. Just 13 left.
Copy !req
1230. But these last seven...
Copy !req
1231. came at a steep price.
Copy !req
1232. How are you? Tired?
Copy !req
1233. Poor man.
You've lost a lot of weight.
Copy !req
1234. I'll go throw
some water on my face.
Copy !req
1235. Next time they come,
we fight to the finish.
Copy !req
1236. It's better we fight it out
before we're spent.
Copy !req
1237. When do you think
they'll attack?
Copy !req
1238. They're exhausted too,
and a few are wounded.
Copy !req
1239. They won't come tonight.
Copy !req
1240. But they have no food,
and their ranks are splitting.
Copy !req
1241. They can't afford
to dawdle either.
Copy !req
1242. I say they'll come at us like hell
tomorrow morning.
Copy !req
1243. Katsushiro.
Copy !req
1244. An order from above.
Copy !req
1245. Place two on watch
and let the rest sleep.
Copy !req
1246. The men may visit their families
one at a time.
Copy !req
1247. So tomorrow's the showdown?
Copy !req
1248. Yes.
Please carry out the order.
Copy !req
1249. You all heard what he just said.
Copy !req
1250. I'll stand guard.
Copy !req
1251. The rest of you sleep.
Copy !req
1252. Manzo...
Copy !req
1253. you go home first.
Copy !req
1254. Take a good look
at your daughter -
Copy !req
1255. I mean, your son.
Copy !req
1256. I told them.
Copy !req
1257. All right. Get some rest.
Copy !req
1258. Katsushiro.
Copy !req
1259. How was Kikuchiyo?
Copy !req
1260. Still beside the grave.
Copy !req
1261. I see.
Copy !req
1262. Are we all going
to die tomorrow?
Copy !req
1263. There's no way to know.
Copy !req
1264. But we might!
Copy !req
1265. Shino.
Copy !req
1266. Where's Shino?
Copy !req
1267. Anyone seen Shino?
Copy !req
1268. Sake, eh?
Where'd you find it?
Copy !req
1269. I see. They have stockpiles,
just like Kikuchiyo said,
Copy !req
1270. and tonight it all comes out.
Copy !req
1271. I think I'll help myself.
Copy !req
1272. Shino!
Copy !req
1273. Here's some sake.
Drink up and get some sleep.
Copy !req
1274. This is hardly like you.
You must rest for the battle tomorrow.
Copy !req
1275. Shino!
Copy !req
1276. You tramp!
Copy !req
1277. You wench!
Copy !req
1278. Stop this brutality!
Copy !req
1279. What the hell's a farmer girl
doing with a samurai?
Copy !req
1280. You slut!
Copy !req
1281. Manzo.
Copy !req
1282. Is this your daughter?
Copy !req
1283. Tell me what happened.
Copy !req
1284. You mentioned a samurai.
Who was it?
Copy !req
1285. Manzo!
Copy !req
1286. Manzo, say something.
Copy !req
1287. Speak!
Copy !req
1288. Are you Shino?
Copy !req
1289. Manzo, don't be angry.
Copy !req
1290. When the dawn threatens
our very lives,
Copy !req
1291. the weight of it
makes us all a little reckless.
Copy !req
1292. On the eve of decisive battles...
Copy !req
1293. this often happens,
even inside castles.
Copy !req
1294. Remember what it was to be young.
You can't blame them.
Copy !req
1295. I can't forgive them.
Copy !req
1296. I can't stand by when my only daughter
has been made damaged goods.
Copy !req
1297. What's wrong with two people in love?
It's not like bandits took her!
Copy !req
1298. They're wound up tight.
We need to loosen them up.
Copy !req
1299. Everyone, the final battle
is here at last.
Copy !req
1300. By the way, Katsushiro,
we expect much of you today.
Copy !req
1301. As of last night,
you became a real man.
Copy !req
1302. Hey!
Copy !req
1303. Where's that fighting spirit?
Copy !req
1304. You'll never win
with such long faces!
Copy !req
1305. Kikuchiyo, what are you up to?
Copy !req
1306. I can't kill five
with just one blade.
Copy !req
1307. There are 13 left.
Copy !req
1308. We'll let them all in.
Copy !req
1309. Once they pass this point,
Copy !req
1310. we close in from all sides
at the crossing.
Copy !req
1311. Everything's riding
on this battle!
Copy !req
1312. Here they come!
Copy !req
1313. Here they come!
Copy !req
1314. Shichiroji and Katsushiro,
go west!
Copy !req
1315. Kyuzo, Kikuchiyo, east!
Copy !req
1316. Katsushiro! Rikichi!
Copy !req
1317. East! Go east!
Copy !req
1318. East!
Copy !req
1319. Shut up!
Copy !req
1320. Scream and you're dead!
Copy !req
1321. We did it!
Copy !req
1322. Head east!
Copy !req
1323. Katsushiro, pull back!
Copy !req
1324. Damn you!
Copy !req
1325. Kikuchiyo!
Copy !req
1326. Kikuchiyo!
Copy !req
1327. Where are the bandits?
Copy !req
1328. They're all dead!
Copy !req
1329. Once more we survive.
Copy !req
1330. In the end,
we lost this battle too.
Copy !req
1331. What?
Copy !req
1332. I mean,
Copy !req
1333. the victory belongs to those peasants.
Copy !req
1334. Not to us.
Copy !req
1335. THE END
Copy !req
