Lady Snowblood
|
00:00:28 |
Meiji 7 (1874). Tokyo Prison, Hachioji, |
00:02:14 |
Yuki... |
00:02:29 |
You were born for vengeance... |
00:02:33 |
Such a poor child... |
00:02:38 |
A child of the netherworlds... |
00:02:47 |
Lady Snowblood |
00:03:43 |
Move it! |
00:03:45 |
Get out of our way, woman! |
00:03:50 |
Who do you think you are?! |
00:03:52 |
Do you realize that he's Shibayama Genzo, |
00:03:59 |
It doesn't matter! Kill her! |
00:04:00 |
You bitch! |
00:04:08 |
What are you, an assassin?! |
00:04:10 |
You little bitch! |
00:04:11 |
Don't kill her... |
00:04:13 |
I want her to tell us what |
00:04:15 |
Yessir! |
00:04:16 |
Yessir! |
00:04:30 |
Who are you?! Speak! |
00:04:34 |
Who gave you orders to come |
00:04:38 |
Answer me! |
00:04:56 |
Wh... Who are you...? |
00:05:00 |
Revenge.. |
00:05:01 |
Wh...Wh...Whoose?! |
00:05:05 |
All those helpless people that |
00:05:10 |
Woman, wh...wh...who |
00:05:15 |
Lady Snowblood. |
00:05:49 |
Begrieving snow falls... |
00:06:02 |
Stray dog's howls... and the footsteps |
00:06:14 |
I walk with the weigth of the Milky |
00:06:21 |
...but an umbrella that holds onto |
00:06:32 |
I'm a woman who walks at the |
00:06:38 |
...who's emptied my tears |
00:06:47 |
All the compassion, |
00:06:54 |
...the snowy nights... and tomorrow... |
00:07:05 |
I've immersed my body in |
00:07:12 |
...and thrown away my womanhood |
00:07:29 |
Chapter One: Vengeance |
00:07:35 |
Over twenty years |
00:07:38 |
...since the new era of Meiji ended three |
00:07:43 |
The European ideas of social progress... |
00:07:45 |
...that once greatly unsettled the people |
00:07:50 |
Still, provincial disputes |
00:07:53 |
...as do unfair practices by mercenary |
00:07:56 |
...and actions taken by corrupt officials |
00:08:00 |
And, self-indulgent, rich men and |
00:08:05 |
...while the pleas of |
00:08:07 |
...who could barely make ends |
00:08:13 |
And at this time, there lived a |
00:08:29 |
Everyone knew her |
00:08:33 |
...but, not many knew that deep inside |
00:08:37 |
...burned a raging desire to |
00:08:40 |
People say...that what cleanses this world |
00:08:46 |
...but snow that is stained fiery-red: |
00:09:03 |
Damn it... |
00:09:08 |
Pardon me... |
00:09:12 |
I would like to see |
00:09:25 |
Where can I find Sir Matsuemon, |
00:09:29 |
Please, would you |
00:09:31 |
Come with me. |
00:09:34 |
Please! Please! |
00:09:56 |
Pass it around! |
00:09:58 |
Pass it around! |
00:10:01 |
Pass it around! |
00:10:04 |
Anything that comes here |
00:10:07 |
That is the law of our band! |
00:10:09 |
C'mon now! Pass it around! |
00:10:12 |
Pass it around! |
00:10:15 |
This goddess of sex |
00:10:22 |
You think you're tough?! |
00:10:24 |
She got me! |
00:10:25 |
Kill this bitch! |
00:10:32 |
Stop! |
00:10:35 |
Stop! Stop it! |
00:10:38 |
Fool! Idiot! |
00:10:39 |
Ow! |
00:10:40 |
How dare you! |
00:10:41 |
Wh...Wh...What the...? |
00:10:44 |
You fools... How dare you act |
00:10:52 |
But, Boss... |
00:10:52 |
You idiot! |
00:10:53 |
Sir... |
00:10:54 |
The lady is a very important |
00:10:59 |
What?! |
00:11:00 |
As you know, that ruthless |
00:11:06 |
...tried to destroy our village |
00:11:10 |
This lady is the one... |
00:11:13 |
...who croaked him! |
00:11:17 |
Miss... I was told that you make |
00:11:22 |
...yet, looking at you, I cannot |
00:11:25 |
Tell me, Miss Shurayuki... |
00:11:27 |
...what is it that you seek? |
00:11:38 |
Sir Matsuemon... |
00:11:40 |
I would like to request your assistance |
00:11:46 |
Takemura Banzo... Tsukamoto |
00:11:50 |
...Kitahama Okono... |
00:11:53 |
Oh... all three seem to be from... |
00:11:57 |
...the Koichi Village, in the Aimi |
00:12:01 |
Now, Koichi Village... that's |
00:12:07 |
It has taken me a whole year... |
00:12:12 |
But, tell me... |
00:12:15 |
Are you familiar with the Ketsuzei Riots |
00:12:20 |
The Ketsuzei Riots? I can't say |
00:12:25 |
These three explited |
00:12:27 |
...and swindled large sums from |
00:12:30 |
...by running a "draft- |
00:12:35 |
...and then skipping |
00:12:37 |
I don't know all the details... |
00:12:40 |
...but I heard that there were |
00:12:46 |
Yes sir. |
00:12:48 |
Of the four... Shokei Tokuichi |
00:12:53 |
He was killed. |
00:13:00 |
I beseech you, sir. Please |
00:13:05 |
I hear you... |
00:13:08 |
...but, without knowing |
00:13:11 |
...knowing their names alone |
00:13:13 |
That is not true! I believe |
00:13:16 |
It should be possible to find many |
00:13:19 |
As your clan is spread widely |
00:13:21 |
...if you were to use your |
00:13:24 |
...I know that you |
00:13:26 |
I don't believe that |
00:13:29 |
But... what exactly |
00:13:36 |
The 6th year of Meiji... I doubt that |
00:13:43 |
It could be said that Karma |
00:13:59 |
All the young men of this nation, as |
00:14:03 |
...will be registered for the draft, and |
00:14:07 |
Their service is required |
00:14:11 |
On November 10th, all familt |
00:14:13 |
...their sixteen year-old male |
00:14:16 |
Upon reaching the |
00:14:18 |
...all such man will be inducted |
00:14:21 |
Going back in time... over |
00:14:24 |
In the Sixth year of Meiji, March... |
00:14:29 |
...was enacted by |
00:14:32 |
The new government sought to strengthen |
00:14:34 |
...believing that the modernization |
00:14:36 |
...on the development of military power |
00:14:42 |
However... the peasants did not consider |
00:14:46 |
...and soon their discontent |
00:14:51 |
The end to these uprisings |
00:14:53 |
Destruction, robbery, arson... and other |
00:14:58 |
Many strange rumors circulated, the most |
00:15:02 |
Men dressed in white were said to be |
00:15:07 |
...who killed conscripts and collected their |
00:15:11 |
This is where the first chapter |
00:15:17 |
Meiji 6 (1873), June. Koichi Village, |
00:16:05 |
Shiro! |
00:16:11 |
Shiro! |
00:16:11 |
Knock it off!! Let me go! |
00:16:11 |
Guys! |
00:16:12 |
Let me go! Mommy! |
00:16:14 |
Shiro! |
00:16:15 |
Let's go. |
00:16:15 |
Get off, fool! |
00:16:23 |
Knock it off! Let go! |
00:16:30 |
Hey! |
00:16:32 |
Look at him! He's wearing white! |
00:16:33 |
Knock it off! |
00:16:34 |
It's HIM... |
00:16:35 |
He's the new government |
00:16:38 |
Don't be ridiculous! |
00:16:42 |
...the new gradeschool teacher who's |
00:16:45 |
Shut up! |
00:16:48 |
Tsukamoto Gishiro |
00:16:54 |
Takemura Banzo |
00:17:03 |
Shokei Tokuichi |
00:17:06 |
Dear! |
00:17:09 |
Kitahama Okono |
00:17:13 |
This is unthinkable! |
00:17:16 |
How could this be?! |
00:17:53 |
Dear! Dear! |
00:17:57 |
Dear! Dear...! |
00:18:05 |
Dear! |
00:18:34 |
Has the moment come? |
00:18:37 |
I believe so. |
00:18:38 |
Then you ought to go... |
00:18:40 |
There is othing to prevent you |
00:18:44 |
Reverend, I must thank you for |
00:18:49 |
I am disheartened because I have not |
00:18:53 |
Don't be ridiculous... |
00:18:55 |
You have a destiny that |
00:18:58 |
Forget joy, forget sorrow... |
00:19:00 |
...forget love, and forget hate... |
00:19:04 |
...except for vengeance, thse |
00:19:07 |
And thus, there should be |
00:19:10 |
A child of the netherworlds |
00:19:13 |
A "child of the netherworlds..." |
00:19:15 |
...who knows how many times you've |
00:19:45 |
"Kajima Sayo" |
00:19:53 |
"Kobayashi Tora" |
00:19:58 |
You are a child of the |
00:20:00 |
You are not a being of this |
00:20:02 |
You are a devil that abides by |
00:20:05 |
...a beast, a devil... one whose |
00:20:09 |
...one so evil that even Buddha |
00:20:23 |
Sayo! You gotta hang in |
00:20:27 |
Otora! Don't just sit there! |
00:20:30 |
I've helped many give |
00:20:35 |
...but I've never seen |
00:20:37 |
If it goes wrong, |
00:20:41 |
I... I don't care... |
00:20:45 |
...but... at least... save my |
00:20:50 |
This isn't good... it's overdue... the |
00:20:55 |
It doesn't matter... |
00:20:58 |
At least save my baby... |
00:21:02 |
You don't even know whose |
00:21:07 |
Should... should my |
00:21:12 |
...if that should happen, |
00:22:12 |
But, tell me... why did those four |
00:22:19 |
For profit... |
00:22:21 |
"For profit?" |
00:22:29 |
They told the people that draftees |
00:22:32 |
...by paying them a |
00:22:37 |
...and thus they swindled the villagers |
00:22:42 |
After splitting the money |
00:22:45 |
...they fled from the |
00:22:48 |
Shokei Tokuichi, who |
00:22:52 |
...took me along with |
00:22:57 |
In Tokyo, Tokuichi opened |
00:23:02 |
I did as I was told, and waited |
00:23:40 |
I killed Tokuichi... |
00:23:44 |
...and was in the midst of hunting |
00:23:48 |
...when I was arrested... |
00:23:53 |
Three more vengeances remain. |
00:23:58 |
But... I've been sentenced |
00:24:03 |
I can no longer... exact my |
00:24:09 |
Then, you mean for this child to... |
00:24:12 |
...you want this newborn to... |
00:24:15 |
That's why you kept saying |
00:24:21 |
Otora... |
00:24:24 |
I can't remember how many |
00:24:28 |
"...you're a slut!" |
00:24:31 |
But that's all right... because |
00:24:37 |
Because I wanted a child |
00:24:56 |
At the women's prison |
00:25:00 |
...and after I arrived here... |
00:25:02 |
...I acted like a mad bitch |
00:25:07 |
...I wantonly seduced men, and |
00:25:13 |
I knew this made you look |
00:25:18 |
For me, there remain |
00:25:24 |
Even if I have to devote my |
00:25:27 |
...my vengeance... |
00:25:31 |
So I... must let this child wreak |
00:25:36 |
I'll die... so my spirit can |
00:25:41 |
That's the only... method of |
00:25:49 |
Otora... |
00:25:52 |
I beg you... |
00:25:56 |
Okiku... please take |
00:26:16 |
You were born for vengeance... |
00:26:21 |
A child of the netherworlds... |
00:26:24 |
...but, Yuki... |
00:26:26 |
...you must avenge |
00:26:29 |
...your father... your big brother... |
00:26:35 |
...and me... |
00:26:42 |
...Yuki... |
00:26:45 |
...my... |
00:26:49 |
Sayo! Sayo! |
00:26:51 |
Sayo! |
00:26:52 |
Sayo! |
00:27:20 |
She took care of the baby with the help of |
00:27:26 |
Being a "child of the netherworlds", Yuki |
00:27:32 |
Weighing down her little shoulders |
00:27:37 |
...but despite this, Yuki endured great |
00:27:42 |
Meiji 15 (1882) |
00:27:47 |
Kashima Yuki, Age 8 |
00:27:53 |
Stretch out your hands |
00:27:55 |
Don't get thrown out, Yuki! |
00:27:58 |
Yessir! |
00:28:00 |
Here we go... |
00:28:24 |
Yuki! |
00:28:28 |
Stand up! Stand up! Yuki! |
00:28:38 |
Yuki! |
00:28:46 |
Yuki! |
00:28:49 |
Until the barrel stops naturally |
00:28:51 |
...you must not become dislodged! |
00:28:57 |
You were not born as a human child. |
00:29:01 |
You were born a child |
00:29:03 |
...who will devote your own life |
00:29:07 |
You must never forget |
00:29:12 |
Feel like a beast! |
00:29:21 |
What are you looking at?! |
00:29:24 |
You must look into my eyes! |
00:29:44 |
You fool! Stand up! |
00:30:02 |
Yuki! What's the matter with you?! |
00:30:06 |
Come on now! |
00:30:14 |
C'mon! |
00:30:20 |
What's with that face? |
00:30:22 |
Step out! On your feet! |
00:32:01 |
At long last... |
00:32:04 |
At long last, I've managed |
00:32:08 |
...my dear mother... |
00:32:15 |
Though born and raised as a |
00:32:17 |
...human compassion was never |
00:32:22 |
Unforgettable memories of her mother |
00:32:26 |
...yet her journey of vengeance |
00:32:29 |
This day... marked the 20th anniversary |
00:32:38 |
Chapter Two: Crying Bamboo |
00:32:47 |
Not many days later... |
00:32:49 |
...a letter arrived from the leader |
00:32:53 |
Takemura Banzo, one of the villains |
00:34:04 |
Dad... I'll go sell all the |
00:34:09 |
I don't know what to say... |
00:34:10 |
I am always making you |
00:34:12 |
What are you talking about...? |
00:34:14 |
There are so many orders that I |
00:34:17 |
Is that so? |
00:34:19 |
Are they selling that well? |
00:34:20 |
Uh-huh. |
00:36:04 |
You saw me? |
00:36:05 |
Why...? |
00:36:07 |
It doesn't matter. They |
00:36:18 |
Here... Keep it. |
00:36:21 |
I made it. |
00:36:24 |
Here you go. |
00:36:26 |
Say... What's your name? |
00:36:29 |
Kobue. Takemura Kobue |
00:36:31 |
Why? |
00:36:36 |
Good-bye. |
00:36:47 |
As usual, here's your three yen. |
00:36:52 |
It's correct, sir. |
00:36:54 |
Oh, one more thing... |
00:36:56 |
...here... |
00:37:03 |
Take it. |
00:37:06 |
Your customer for tonight |
00:37:09 |
...and he's a very important |
00:37:13 |
So... we expect the best from you. |
00:37:18 |
I know that, sir. |
00:37:20 |
Hey! |
00:37:22 |
Yessiree! Here we go! |
00:37:33 |
Kobue, is that you? |
00:37:41 |
Heh... it's you guys. |
00:37:44 |
Who did you think it was? |
00:37:47 |
Whassup, good Takemura? |
00:37:50 |
You don't look too well. |
00:37:53 |
We're here today representing |
00:37:59 |
It doesn't look like Kobue |
00:38:02 |
She's out selling her wares. |
00:38:05 |
She's probably shopping on her |
00:38:11 |
What's so funny? |
00:38:13 |
Look... |
00:38:15 |
...wake up, why don't you? |
00:38:18 |
Look... do you really think that |
00:38:24 |
You dumb asshole. |
00:38:26 |
Your daughter, you see, is... |
00:38:28 |
...throwing everything she |
00:38:33 |
But, Kobue brings home money... |
00:38:36 |
Do you wanna know where that |
00:38:40 |
Look... eight yen in all. |
00:38:44 |
The due date passed long, long ago. |
00:38:47 |
You got to be kidding me! |
00:38:49 |
It's all your fault to begin with. |
00:38:52 |
You're making her sell herself! |
00:38:55 |
Oh, what a poor thing! |
00:38:58 |
She has to do it, to pay for her |
00:39:03 |
Quiet! Kobue would never |
00:39:07 |
Here we go. |
00:39:19 |
Place your bets! |

Place your bets, please! |

00:39:43 |
Yes, sir... Apparently, she's from |
00:39:47 |
Said her name is "Oyuki..." |
00:39:50 |
She sure gets a rise out of me! |
00:39:52 |
She's no ordinary mouse. |
00:39:53 |
You shouldn't play... |
00:39:54 |
Quiet! |
00:39:55 |

00:40:51 |
Here we go. |
00:40:56 |
Next bet... |
00:41:08 |
Here we go. |
00:41:22 |
Bets please. |
00:41:22 |
Bets please. |
00:41:45 |
No more bets! |
00:41:46 |
Score! |
00:41:48 |
Hold it! |
00:41:55 |
Mr. Takemura... we need to talk! |
00:42:10 |
Please forgive me... |
00:42:12 |
Can't do it. |
00:42:19 |
S... Spare me... |
00:42:22 |
Boss... |
00:42:22 |
Huh? |
00:42:23 |
Why don't we roll him up and |
00:42:26 |
Don't be in such a hurry. |
00:42:27 |
First, we should torture him |
00:42:29 |
P... Please forgive me! |
00:42:32 |
Y... You can have Kobue... |
00:42:34 |
Too late for that, you smartass! |
00:42:37 |
Fool...! |
00:42:40 |
Please wait. |
00:42:43 |
As a professional, it is my fault |
00:42:47 |
Allow me to pay compensation. |
00:42:49 |
It's none of your concern! Butt out! |
00:42:57 |
Just what the hell is going on?! |
00:43:02 |
What is that you want, stranger? |
00:43:06 |
I beg you please... |
00:43:08 |
I must ask you to spare his life, |
00:43:21 |
Don't tell me that you knew |
00:43:31 |
Well, in any case... |
00:43:33 |
Masa... Kame... let him go. |
00:43:36 |
Boss! |
00:43:37 |
We shouldn't cpmcern ourselves with |
00:43:41 |
I appreciate this, sir. |
00:43:42 |
You bastard! The next time you |
00:43:46 |
...forget being rolled up and |
00:43:48 |
...you'll be shredded to bits |
00:43:50 |
You bastard! |
00:44:04 |
Oh? |
00:44:08 |
What brings you here? |
00:44:15 |
If something happens, you should |
00:44:20 |
Okiku of Tajire, in Ueno's 7th ward, |
00:44:26 |
Thanks, but I can't leave |
00:45:04 |
You're still hanging around? |
00:45:07 |
I owe you one for what you |
00:45:11 |
But, you know... it wouldn't |
00:45:15 |
...wheter I lived or died... |
00:45:21 |
If it weren't for my daughter... |
00:45:26 |
By the way... why did you |
00:45:30 |
Because we have a little business |
00:45:37 |
Shall we go? |
00:45:39 |
Go? Where to? Who are you anyway?! |
00:45:45 |
I've come to take you away... to take |
00:45:52 |
Come now... it's time to start the |
00:46:09 |
Who... Who are you? |
00:46:13 |
Just who are you? |
00:46:15 |
What are you gonna do to me? |
00:46:17 |
Are you scared, Banzo? |
00:46:20 |
I bet you are. |
00:46:22 |
A man like you has memories |
00:46:24 |
...that you can't forget them |
00:46:29 |
What are you talking about? |
00:46:31 |
A long, long time ago... |
00:46:33 |
...you lived in the village of Kiochi. |
00:46:38 |
You, Tsukamoto Gishiro... |
00:46:42 |
...Kitashama Okono... |
00:46:44 |
...and Shokei Tokuichi... |
00:46:47 |
...in order to swindle money from |
00:46:50 |
...killed an innocent man... |
00:46:53 |
...and raped and tortured his wife |
00:46:59 |
I know nothing! I know nothing |
00:47:06 |
Look closely at my face. |
00:47:09 |
Doesn't this face remind you |
00:47:13 |
...somebody that you have raped? |
00:47:23 |
My name is Shurayuki. |
00:47:26 |
There was a woman who died in |
00:47:32 |
I'm the daughter of |
00:47:45 |
I was wrong. |
00:47:47 |
I was wrong. |
00:47:50 |
They made me do it... |
00:47:54 |
I've never been able to forget it... |
00:48:02 |
Where is Gishiro? |
00:48:06 |
Where os Okono? |
00:48:08 |
I don't know! I really don't know! |
00:48:12 |
Please forgive me! |
00:48:14 |
I will neither forgive nor spare you! |
00:48:20 |
Please... |
00:48:23 |
Please don't kill me... |
00:48:28 |
I beg you... please... |
00:48:32 |
Please, I beg you... |
00:48:34 |
If I die... what happens to my |
00:48:38 |
...what about my daughter Kobue? |
00:48:41 |
Please! Please! |
00:48:45 |
For Kobue's sake... |
00:48:46 |
An eye for an eye! |
00:49:41 |
All life is transitory... |
00:49:45 |
Having slain one of her enemies, |
00:49:50 |
The sea assaulted the shore, as if it |
00:50:07 |
In this journey of vengeance, the end |
00:50:17 |
Chapter Three: Umbrella of Blood, |
00:50:42 |
"Tsukamoto Gishiro" |
00:52:09 |
"Tajire" |
00:52:37 |
It's just so unfortunate... |
00:52:40 |
When we heard from you that Gishiro |
00:52:45 |
...she didn't want to believe it, |
00:52:52 |
But, now that she's seen his tombstone |
00:52:57 |
...well, what else can we do? |
00:53:00 |
It's just to bad... |
00:53:03 |
If only we had... |
00:53:06 |
If only we had gone searching |
00:53:13 |
When did he die? |
00:53:16 |
Three years ago... |
00:53:18 |
...a shipwreck during a voyage to |
00:53:24 |
When he was alive, Gishiro |
00:53:26 |
...been involved with foreigners, |
00:53:31 |
Three years ago? |
00:53:34 |
Yuki had just come to me to receive |
00:53:40 |
The training I have received from the |
00:53:47 |
...it's all so that I can personally |
00:53:51 |
Gishiro was the leader |
00:53:57 |
How I longed to destroy him... |
00:54:00 |
...stricking him down with the sword of |
00:54:03 |
Oyuki! |
00:54:05 |
Be strong... |
00:54:07 |
Don't you know that you've still |
00:54:17 |
Sir Matsuemon... |
00:54:20 |
I beseech you... |
00:54:23 |
Please try to find Kitahama Okono |
00:54:26 |
I have my men working on it, but... |
00:54:31 |
...there's only so much we can do. |
00:55:49 |
Looking for someone? |
00:56:00 |
We meet at last. I've been looking |
00:56:05 |
What do you want from me? |
00:56:06 |
I'd like you to explain something. |
00:56:10 |
That tombstone... belonged to a |
00:56:15 |
There's nothing I can tell you. |
00:56:17 |
I doubt that's true... |
00:56:19 |
You shredded flowers left as |
00:56:22 |
...something no one would do |
00:56:25 |
So you had something against him... |
00:56:27 |
It's none of your business. |
00:56:29 |
My name is Ashiro Ryurei. |
00:56:31 |
See, I publish a cheap little rag |
00:56:34 |
I also write novels too, |
00:56:36 |
I guess you could say that I'm just |
00:56:39 |
If something catches my attention... |
00:56:41 |
...I'll sniff out the truth, |
00:56:44 |
You sound like you're a stray dog. |
00:56:45 |
Yes... If I find some leftover |
00:56:50 |
It's best if you stop bothering |
00:56:53 |
What makes you say that? |
00:56:56 |
That unwise curiosity of yours |
00:56:59 |
Is that a threat? |
00:57:00 |
If you like |
00:57:03 |
You know, people call me |
00:57:06 |
People fear me because I use my |
00:57:08 |
...basically I'm a dirty blackmailer. |
00:57:12 |
So. when somebody threats me instead... |
00:57:15 |
...that makes me even more curious. |
00:57:19 |
What is it that you want? |
00:57:21 |
Please don't think that I'm trying |
00:57:23 |
I just want to know what's going on. |
00:57:28 |
Leave me alone. |

Shura Yuki Hime |
00:58:36 |
By Ashio Ryurei |
00:58:50 |
It was the sixth year of Meiji, |
00:58:52 |
A tragedy befell an innocent family... |
00:58:56 |
They were victims of a blood-chilling |
00:59:03 |
Time has passed, but who |
00:59:08 |
Time has passed, but what dark |
00:59:11 |
Whose tears fill the river of revenge? |
00:59:13 |
Whose sould is filled with |
00:59:15 |
Who kills without premeditation, |
00:59:17 |
Knowing neither forgiveness |
00:59:19 |
...she traveled the land, seeking |
00:59:22 |
...and left their corpses withou |
00:59:24 |
Her name was Shurayuki... |
00:59:35 |
Certainly... |
00:59:37 |
The person who told Ashiro Ryurei |
00:59:43 |
Why did you have to, sir?! |
00:59:48 |
I just cannot comprehend... why |
00:59:52 |
Don't you see? |
00:59:54 |
It's bail, to lure out... |
00:59:57 |
...the one villain that remains: |
01:00:01 |
Matsuemon's men are not |
01:00:06 |
However... should Ryurei's novel |
01:00:11 |
...I'm certain that Okono |
01:00:14 |
And, when she does... she will |
01:00:18 |
That will be... the moment when |
01:00:25 |
Besides, you see... |
01:00:28 |
...I've come to really like... |
01:00:34 |
He's using his talents as a writer... |
01:00:37 |
...to express his hostility and malice |
01:00:43 |
He may be a rogue, but I felt |
01:00:45 |
...the ideal man to write your story, |
01:00:53 |
But, will Kitahama Okono take action...? |
01:00:58 |
Will she reveal herself? |
01:01:02 |
You must wait and see... |
01:01:07 |
Yuki, you must not rush things. |
01:01:11 |
If you must endure a moment |
01:01:16 |
...when the winds of carnage do not blow |
01:01:19 |
...your Bhudda will not punish you. |
01:01:22 |
...to Mount Kazusa... |
01:01:27 |
...from Mount Kazusa, looking into |
01:01:33 |
...a little child picks up a pebble... |
01:01:39 |
Born to settle and old score. |
01:01:41 |
Born to seek vengeance. |
01:01:44 |
Yet, listening to the children sing, |
01:01:49 |
As she continued to travel her |
01:01:51 |
...the glimmers of the past became |
01:02:10 |
Just tell me, please... |
01:02:12 |
...that this is merely fiction! |
01:02:15 |
That it's all made up, just to |
01:02:17 |
No... I've written nothing |
01:02:23 |
You're not lying... |
01:02:27 |
It's all truth. |
01:02:28 |
Then... Oyuki... killed my dad... |
01:02:33 |
Just who are you? |
01:02:36 |
I'm... Banzo's... |
01:02:38 |
I'm Takemura Banzo's daughter. |
01:02:44 |
This is awful! Just awful! |
01:02:58 |
So now we have... another |
01:03:06 |
Born under unlucky stars, |
01:03:10 |
...you... and her. |
01:03:17 |
Wait! |
01:03:20 |
Wait, why don't you?! |
01:03:22 |
There's no way... No way can |
01:03:26 |
I do! |
01:03:29 |
I can understand... |
01:03:40 |
Are you... Ashio Ryurei? |
01:03:44 |
Yeah, so what do you want from me? |
01:03:48 |
Because your "Lady Snowblood" |
01:03:52 |
...the people have become confused and |
01:03:57 |
Come with us to headquarters! |
01:03:59 |
You've got to be kidding me... |
01:04:00 |
Silence! Take him! |
01:04:10 |
Quiet! |
01:04:13 |
Hey! We don't got all day! |
01:04:33 |
Who is it? |
01:04:37 |
Who are you? |
01:04:38 |
Takemura Kobue. |
01:04:41 |
Kobue? Takemura? |
01:04:48 |
You must be Banzo's... |
01:04:52 |
Did you come here to see Yuki? |
01:04:53 |
I wouldn't ever want to see her! |
01:04:54 |
Then what brings you here? |
01:04:57 |
Ashio Ryurei got arrested |
01:05:00 |
I didn't know that there was a |
01:05:03 |
...inside a restaurant called |
01:05:05 |
Wait! Wait a second! Wait, I said! |
01:05:10 |
Take that! |
01:05:15 |
You bastard! You fuckin' retard! |
01:05:18 |
Get up! |
01:05:25 |
Scum! |
01:05:37 |
There! |
01:05:45 |
C'mon! Out with it! |
01:05:51 |
Where's Shurayuki?! |
01:06:08 |
I spent a cosiderable amount of time |
01:06:12 |
Clearly, it's based on a real event. |
01:06:15 |
There's no way someone who didn't |
01:06:21 |
Kitahama Okono... So you've revealed |
01:06:27 |
So, the money you pocketed from that |
01:06:31 |
...paid for this shady little hideout |
01:06:34 |
That sure is nice to know. |
01:06:36 |
Silence! |
01:06:39 |
Tell me! Where's Shurayuki?! |
01:06:42 |
Tell me! Tell me! |
01:06:44 |
I don't know! I'm not |
01:06:47 |
You stubborn fool! |
01:06:49 |
Don't hold back! Go ahead |
01:06:54 |
Dumb ass! |
01:07:01 |
Suffer! Suffer a lot more! |
01:07:06 |
Suffer! |
01:07:11 |
There! |
01:07:14 |
That should be enough. Let's |
01:07:17 |
But... |
01:07:18 |
He's no good to us if he's dead. |
01:07:22 |
We'll use him as bait. |
01:07:23 |
Bait? |
01:07:24 |
Yes. Shurayuki will, without a |
01:08:23 |
She's here! |
01:09:55 |
So you've come, Shurayuki! |
01:10:00 |
Kitahama Okono... as last... |
01:10:04 |
That's right! I deliberately acted |
01:10:51 |
Thunder-Sand Bomb! |
01:10:53 |
What?! Thunder-Sand?! |
01:10:54 |
Hold your breath! |
01:10:55 |
Hold your breath! |
01:10:57 |
Be careful! |
01:11:00 |
Shurayuki! |
01:11:02 |
Oyuki... |
01:12:05 |
Okono... |
01:12:11 |
Has she escaped?! |
01:14:53 |
It's all done now, |
01:14:55 |
...your vengeance... everything. |
01:14:59 |
Is it really over? Is it supposed |
01:15:04 |
It is over... |
01:15:06 |
It's all done now. |
01:15:09 |
Can the netherworld's snow, soaked in |
01:15:14 |
You were born inside a jail, |
01:15:16 |
How can you live like a normal |
01:15:22 |
I do remember... |
01:15:25 |
...from the moment I was born... |
01:15:29 |
I remember everything I saw... |
01:15:33 |
I can still picture it before |
01:15:37 |
That's why... |
01:15:39 |
...my mother's vengeance is my own. |
01:15:43 |
This revenge... is mine. |
01:15:55 |
"Chapter Four:" |
01:17:04 |
Just as I thought... you |
01:17:09 |
I was hoping that I was only |
01:17:14 |
Why... did you fake your deah? |
01:17:17 |
Who are you talking about? |
01:17:19 |
If you're talking about a wretch named |
01:17:23 |
He died when his ship foundered |
01:17:25 |
That's not true! Gishiro is alive! |
01:17:28 |
Right in front of my eyes! |
01:17:32 |
The boat that you were on... |
01:17:35 |
But... as the police were after |
01:17:40 |
...the shipwreck provided you with |
01:17:43 |
...to fake your own death! |
01:17:46 |
You survived... and continue to |
01:17:53 |
You haven't changed... |
01:17:55 |
You haven't changed at all since |
01:18:02 |
Why did you come here? |
01:18:06 |
To make you forget about things... |
01:18:08 |
...about Tsukamoto Gishiro... |
01:18:13 |
You must forget them all. |
01:18:18 |
Your Shurayukihime story is at an end. |
01:18:21 |
With Kitahama Okono's death, |
01:18:24 |
There's no more to write about. |
01:18:27 |
Are you threatening me? |
01:18:29 |
No. Just giving advice. |
01:18:34 |
Let me tell you something... |
01:18:37 |
These days I'm mostly involved |
01:18:39 |
Even the government can't buy |
01:18:44 |
I believe that Japan will soon |
01:18:48 |
Japan is streangthening its military forces |
01:18:51 |
...and I'm lending them a hand, |
01:18:56 |
I don't have time for some silly, |
01:19:02 |
The place where I conduct most of |
01:19:05 |
It's supposed to be the place where |
01:19:10 |
...and debate the use of Western |
01:19:15 |
But, what really goes on there are... |
01:19:17 |
...nightly parties for the |
01:19:20 |
...who indulge themselves in self- |
01:19:24 |
Despite this, society is changing. |
01:19:27 |
And I will float with the tide... |
01:19:29 |
...all the time harvesting more |
01:19:35 |
It's fine to be concerned with justice |
01:19:39 |
...yet, in the end, it's all nothing more than |
01:19:44 |
Forget newspapers and all that, |
01:19:46 |
If you feel like it, you can |
01:19:52 |
I cut my ties to you all those |
01:19:56 |
Oh, well. But, let me say this... |
01:20:00 |
Don't continue to stick your nose |
01:20:05 |
That's my final... advice, from |
01:21:05 |
Ryu... |
01:21:19 |
Gishiro is alive... |
01:21:21 |
What? |
01:21:21 |
He was just here, before you came. |
01:21:24 |
Then... that man in the rickshaw... |
01:21:26 |
Wait! Please wait! |
01:21:28 |
He won't get away... I'll |
01:21:30 |
And, listen, there's one more thing... |
01:21:31 |
...there's one more thing |
01:21:35 |
Gishiro is... |
01:21:37 |
...Tsukamoto Gishiro is... |
01:21:40 |
...my father. |
