We were tired just dreaming.
Our paths have finally crossed.
Yes, let's stand up.
People point their fingers.
Strangers make fun of us...
It is all right.
They can say all they want.
We're looking at the same morning sun that was there when we promised...
...and with the same ambition.
It will come true...
Because I know it is our destiny.
It's only a dream...
A little revolution...
Right now we just have to shout with one arm in the air.
It's only dream...
A bright future...
This joy...
This pain...
I can't give it up.
Gun Frontier...
It's a place where the blazing emotions of a man...
...can always bring tears to one's eyes.
Look at the heat rising!
Our horses are going to be baked to death out here...
Hey, where on earth are we headed?
To a place called Strovetown.
I've heard some rumors about a guy with a samurai sword who lives there...
Are you sure we're on the right track?
I don't know...
Tochiro always has a strange way of reading maps.
Excuse me!
This compass is perfectly accurate.
It is not the compass that I was worried about...
Hey, look!
Oh, it really does exist.
I see the town.
I am genius!
Go, horses!
Let's hurry and get some water.
I can't wait to bathe.
Here we are!
You killed my horse, what's your problem?
Why did you have to shoot?
I'll pay for the horse.
That horse is my horse.
That means it's just a horse but a horse that I own, so my loving horse...
You aren't taller than five foot two, are you?
So what?
Here in Strovetown, no men shorter than five two are admitted.
That's ridiculous!
Isn't this supposed to be free country...
...where everyone can act and think freely?
My height and my glasses make me original, this means I...
Shut up, midget.
In any case, our community feels strongly about not accepting short people.
Harlock!
We don't need to look for trouble now.
Don't worry about me.
You find out about the sword for me.
All right...
We'll get you something to eat later, okay?
Don't party too hard, all right?
Fine!
I'll be feasting on horse meat!
Hurry up and cook, damn meat!
No admittance due to height, is that it?
Who are you guys?
Can we have some meat?
I am okay, but my sister is starving, she is gonna cry.
Of course you can!
Here!
Thank you!
Eat this!
Thanks, brother!
You should thank him, not me.
Thank you, mister.
It's yummy...
It's yummy, Tochiro...
Yeah.
I'm full already.
You eat, Shizuku.
No, you eat, Tochiro.
I am fine, you eat!
You are a big brother, you should eat more.
Brother...
Why don't you go to town?
My dad is very short.
So we can't go there.
I see.
Your dad is short, too?
What's wrong?
Are you full?
I wanna give this to daddy.
I see.
Take this with you, too.
Thank you.
I'll take the head!
Daddy!
We've got meat!
Wow, good job!
Daddy...
Are you sick?
I have a terminal illness.
I am dying.
You are not!
What does "dying" mean?
Oh, it's starting to rain!
Please sleep inside.
What about you?
I kinda like being in the rain.
Sorry...
You should sleep with us!
Who would want to sleep with kids and an old man?
All right, if you say so.
Hey pops, what kind of medicine do you take?
I think he calls it liquor.
All right...
I will be back.
Hey, where are you going?
I will go into town and get your dad's medicine.
What's the matter?
Our mom should be in town.
Can you look for her?
Why is she in town by herself?
She left my dad and now lives with a tall man.
I see...
Dad told us not to see her again.
I don't wanna see her, either.
But sometimes, I hear my dad calling her name in his sleep.
It is very hard for me.
Just once more before he dies, I want them to meet.
You want to see her, too, right?
To be honest, I still can't believe she left us.
She was always nice.
Okay.
I will go search for her.
What's her name?
Yoneko.
All right...
Yoneko, huh?
A guy with a samurai sword...
I haven't seen anything like that.
Let's search for him tomorrow.
Sounds good.
Why don't we get some rest tonight.
Fantastic, you're so big...
Yes, so big...
All five feet and eleven inches of you...
Five foot eleven, seventy one glorious inches...
It's the greatest...
Yoneko...
W-What is this...
You're interrupting a private moment...
What?
It's you, the four eyed midget!
It's you, the guy who said I wasn't welcome here!
That wasn't personal or anything.
That's how our community feels.
In this town, men shorter than five foot two are not considered human.
We don't want to live with someone like you.
I don't want to live with someone like you, either!
I came here for a different reason!
You must be Mrs. Yoneko.
Please come with me.
Your husband and kids are waiting for you outside the city.
Don't worry.
I am one of your people.
Please cover yourself up, so we can get out of here.
Harlock, wake up!
We are in trouble!
Harlock, wake up, please!
You idiot, wake up!
What is going on?
Easy, no need to be violent here.
Look outside.
Outside?
Oh no!
He's being hanged again.
That's why I woke you up.
Execute him!
Hang the four eyed midget!
Kill the vagabond!
Damn!
I warned you not to enter this town.
Following in the spirit of our community, I have no choice but to execute you.
Shut up!
Kill him!
Midget!
Dammit, I wanna kill them all!
Hey hey, don't try anything stupid.
It's amazing how often you get yourself hanged...
That woman was one of my people, but I shouldn't have trusted her.
She caught me off guard and clubbed me with a stick.
Wait!
I'll do anything, please set him free.
Anything?
Then how about a strip tease?
It is for the sake of calming down our furious mob.
Make it seductive.
Sinunora, don't do it!
Quiet!
So what are you going to do?
Spread your legs more!
On your knees, show me your ass.
Hey!
Hey, hey...
Stay still.
Can't you be a bit more gentle with me?
You are asking too much.
You should think again.
Look at our numbers, you have no chance of winning.
I am well aware of that.
But I can surely finish you.
Now, what you gonna do?
O-Okay...
I will call off the execution.
We won't do anything if you just get out of our town.
Hand me the woman.
As you wish.
No, I'm not going back!
Do you know that your husband is about to die?
So what?
Give me a break!
Living with that bowlegged midget is the last thing I'd do.
I have a new life...
You are a dead woman.
Understand?
Don't you ever appear in front of your kids again.
Let's go.
Who wants to die next?
Sorry, Sinunora.
You were humiliated because of me.
Don't worry.
It doesn't bother me.
You are alive, Tochiro.
That's all that is important.
But you ended up stripping down in front of scumbags like them.
You are right.
Then, can you show me yours next time?
Yes, yes!
I'll show you everything!
Did you find my mom?
Your mom is dead.
But she was remarkable.
I heard she worked very hard to buy medicine for your dad.
She worked herself to death...
I'm serious!
Whoever said she was living with a tall guy was lying!
Thanks, mister.
My son must have given you a hard time.
I am sorry to have troubled you.
It's all right, but your wife...
I know, don't say anything.
I brought liquor for the time being.
God bless you.
I want to thank you, but I have nothing...
Don't worry about it.
Wait, I know!
I have this, it cuts well and the engraving is "The Mountain God Abesada."
So you were the guy we have been looking for...
Are you one of us?
Not at all, I may be short, but I am quite white.
Yoneko's father gave this sword to me...
...to take care of, along with his daughter.
Will you accept this?
Thanks, but I already have one.
This looks amazing.
The inscription is?
San Tenga Mugen.
My father gave it to me, but it's been retouched with star-dust steel.
It must be a fine work of art by someone famous.
It's my sister's work.
Really, that's unbelievable!
I'm trying to find out where she is.
Do you know anything?
Jamacity is three stops from here by train...
I've heard people say many of your tribe live there.
Are your sure?
Yeah, as a matter of fact, I met Yoneko there.
Jamacity...
You guys can keep the wagon.
Take care!
What about you?
We are going to Jamacity by train.
My people and my sister are waiting for me!
Be careful.
The women from your tribe that live with the White men...
...hate men of their own kind for some reason.
Bye bye!
Thank you!
I remember my sister when she was still little...
Tochiro's sister...
She is so cute, just like me!
Harlock, if you want, I can introduce you two!
N-No thanks, I will pass.
Are you sure?
She is really cute...
Let's see...
This way, brother!
I made this.
You can keep it because you have no sense of direction.
Shizuku...
You guys are...
Don't come near us.
I am...
I know, you are about to say you are one of us.
Isn't that right?
Aren't you the survivors from Samurai creek?
Aren't you Samurai?
Yes, we are Samurai.
We have been watching you closely.
You don't look like our enemy.
Right, then...
But...
You don't look like our friend either.
Don't say such a thing.
We came all this way to find you, the survivors from Samurai Creek...
I am sorry, but we still cannot believe that you are a Samurai.
We will go and save our kinsmen who were captured.
Jamacity, right?
Please, I will come with you!
Hey!
Hey, wait!
Wait up!
I will come with...
You originally had nothing to do with Samurai Creek.
Don't rush to your death...
My sister is there!
I beg you, let me fight with you.
Being with white folks like us probably didn't help.
It must be my fault.
Tochiro.
Well, our destination is the same!
I will see them again, and they'll trust me someday!
It's so empty, we can relax!
It's a big difference from last time we took the train!
Why?
That is ridiculous!
I hear shouting, and Sinunora and Harlock aren't behind me...
Sinunora, Harlock!
Oh my, it's you!
It's you!
Hey, isn't this strange?
Just because I'm five eleven, he won't let me ride inside.
That can't be right!
In this train, men taller than five foot two inches are not considered human.
They are not allowed in the passenger coach.
Serves him right!
What about civil rights?
The president of this railway is a short man.
He was not admitted into Strovetown.
He was upset and decided to impose the opposite rule on his trains.
As a citizen of America, known for its equality...
...I can't allow such unreasonable discrimination!
That's exactly what you did, too!
You can't complain much about getting even.
Damn, why do I...
Thanks to you, we all ended up on top of the freight car.
Go ahead, Tochiro.
Get some rest in the passenger coach.
You have to be prepared for the consequences of your actions here in the West.
It's a wonderful place.
You have nothing to worry about.
What happened to that guy?
In exchange for serving me so much beer, I treated him to a hunk of lead...
...just to say thanks.
I see!
I like this cool weather.
Me, too.
It's a place where everything has its consequence.
Where one always must be prepared.
It is a place where the strong prey upon the weak.
Gun Frontier.
The Wild West forever...
Gun Frontier...
...where there is no such thing as peace.
And just when you thought you've found some, you could be dead in a moment.
Next episode...
Matchlock in Jamacity.
You are here, on this planet...
Even our days...
...are trembling just a little.
Worrying, wondering...
Can't find an answer.
Rain keeps coming down...
Somebody falls like a shooting star, somebody comes into the world today...
Like a prayer, time takes care of all.
Please once more...
In the rain, hold my hand...
...and search for tomorrow.
Just little bit longer, over my heart, open an umbrella.
Rain keeps coming down...
