Episode 18
Spring had come to the mountains.
The day was getting nearer for Oshin to part from Shunsaku and Matsuzo.
You have to go home.
You're free to go now that spring has come.
Your family's all waiting for you to come home.
They'll be worried to death if you don't go back.
You worked hard up here. You're smart and very sweet.
You'll be facing hardships in the future.
But never give up home and you'll find happiness.
We can't make you happy up here.
Go home!
You'll leave at dawn. Help her get ready.
Let's cook the last of the remaining rice tonight.
We'll have some iwana fish too.
The streams free of ice I'll go catch some.
I'll show you how good a fisherman I am!
Cheer up.
You will be seeing your family tomorrow.
Hurry! It's Matsu-ji!
I guess I'm getting old. I've never fallen before.
Good thing you didn't fall in the water.
No bones broken. We'll put some of this medicine on.
That should work well.
But we'll never be able to leave the mountain tomorrow.
It'll take a while. You're all swollen.
That means I'll get to stay until he's all better.
I'm so glad!
I'll take you down.
Shunsaku!
I can't take her all the way home but I will take her down.
Oshin can make it on her own from there.
You don't have to!
To delay her departure will only make it harder for her to go.
I'll take her down the mountain tomorrow.
It's not snowing much. Shall we go?
Shunsaku...
Let me hear you play that instrument you have.
I don't know what it's called but I like it a lot.
Once I go home I'll never get to hear it again.
Please play it for me.
Thank you for everything.
You can have this.
You seem to like it.
I can't take that!
Go on.
You can play it when you're having a tough time.
It will comfort you.
No I can't!
It's called a harmonica.
I took it to war with me.
It contains a lot of memories but I have to forget those memories.
It's too painful to hold onto it.
But...
If you'll treasure it and play it it's better than me holding onto it.
It's easy. You'll learn to play it quickly.
Try it.
Just blow into it.
That's good.
Blow some more.
All you have to do is find the notes of the song
and you'll be able to play it.
It won't take long.
I know that song because you always played it.
Here it's your harmonica now.
I promise I'll learn to play that song too.
I've made rice balls for you.
Make sure you eat them. You'll need the strength.
I'm sorry I can't walk you down myself.
But I'll be praying for your safe journey.
There's no need for a formal farewell!
Go on now. Before it gets dark.
Hurry and go!
Thanks for the quilt and all the good food.
Oshin...
I'll probably never see you again.
Well then...
Be careful.
It's not just you they're after.
I'll be going.
Do you need to rest?
No we need to get down before dark.
Okay.
I can see my village! Just drop me off here.
I can make it from here on my own.
Soldiers.
What are they doing here?
Be quiet.
Please go. I can make it.
No you'll never make it on your own.
Who are you?
I'm a hunter here in these parts.
What's your name?
Kasuke.
Who's the girl?
She's my sister. I'm taking her to a relative's house.
- Who's the relative? - Sakuzo.
- Take them in! - Yes!
What have we done?
We're taking in all suspicious characters.
I'm just a hunter. Why do I have to go?
Just come with us!
Oshin! Oshin!
Oshin!
Leave the girl alone!
Oshin!
Shunsaku!
Oshin...
This is how it's supposed to be...
Shunsaku!
Live your life without regrets...
Shunsaku! Shunsaku!
My dear brother. Do not die...
You were not born to kill or be killed...
The nation has ordered that you go and kill...
We did not raise you to kill or be killed...
There is no need for man to fight...
Our Emperor does not wish to go to fight...
Do not shed blood...
Do not live the life of a beast...
To die is not an honor...
The nation will understand...
