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 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.
It is a place where men can say...
...and do whatever they want.
Yes...
This is Gun Frontier
What the hell?
What the hell is this?
He said we should go three stops towards the west...
Give me a break!
I see nothing but the station here.
The old man said it was a very big town, right?
There must be some kind of mistake.
I don't know...
No, it's definitely here.
You're right...
Would you call this a town?
Sinunora, do you know anything?
The name of the man who rules Jamacity is Shitalnen...
...a big shot in the organization.
That's all I know.
I've never heard that the town itself doesn't exist.
No kidding!
We're gonna be the ones baked to death this time.
I wonder when the next train will come...
Perhaps in another three months...
We'll never last for three months!
I see no town, but the gallows is over there.
I see...
That looks fairly old.
Right.
I hear the sound of rocking skeletons.
Oh well, there's nothing we can do now!
As we speak, night has fallen.
I don't like the sound of that.
Just try to imagine it as a lullaby.
Tochiro!
The peak is glowing.
It's just a mirage.
Or maybe not...
That glow...
I'm sure it's a ghost!
I'm wondering why a ghost would be up there...
It's spooky...
Hey, where are you going?
I am a curious man.
I'll check it out.
Wait, you idiot!
You'll be possessed!
Here he goes again...
The man is crazy.
After he is satisfied with his investigation, he'll be back.
Once Tochiro saves his sister, what will he do?
I don't know.
I don't really understand what's on his mind.
When the battle against the organization is over...
...will I be abandoned?
If that is the case...
I would rather be killed, by either you or Tochiro...
Hey!
Hey, hey!
Tochiro is screaming.
He must be really scared.
He keeps on screaming.
That's what happens to a curious man who visits a ghost.
Hey!
Calm down.
Keep your cool.
Hurry and come here!
Oh my...
See?
Look at that...
The glow was coming from the phosphorus on the corpses.
Idiot!
That's not it!
That way!
Take a look!
This is Jamacity.
This is such a huge town.
It's too huge, it'll be tough to find a clue.
The stiffs on the peak?
Oh, they are criminals who were deported from this town.
What kind of criminals?
They were a gang of bandits who used to terrify the west.
Shitalnen killed them all for us.
Shitalnen?
He sounds like a great man...
Nah, a wolf was chased away, but a tiger took his place.
Now, if you think of disobeying him...
Do you get it?
Tell me, where is Shitalnen?
My people, and my sister are being held by him.
The hideout of Shitalnen is...
May I ask you a question?
Yes?
Where is the hideout of Shitalnen?
Oh that's...
Shitalnen is...
I guess we need to be careful when we ask questions...
Hurry!
Keep working!
If you are lazy, you'll get whipped!
Work!
Are you okay?
Go back to your duty!
How is the production coming?
Mr. Shitalnen!
We are a little behind schedule...
Hey you, get up!
No!
We've been working non-stop!
We need some rest!
How dare you...
I see her point.
They have been working way too hard...
He can rest as long as he wants.
How brutal...
It's not your job to take care of the useless and dying.
All you have to do is complete this piece.
Come on!
Get back to work!
Mr. Shitalnen!
The survivors from Samurai Creek finally came across Tochiro's gang.
They're heading here to rescue these guys.
What a bunch of idiots.
We just saved ourselves the trouble of finding them.
Let's finish them all at once!
Tochiro and his gang are also in town.
We don't need them anymore.
Kill them!
Yes, sir.
Whoa!
What the hell was that?
It looked like a carriage but without horses...
I'm shocked that they already came up with that...
What was that?
I've only heard a rumor about it...
I think it's called an Auto-Carriage.
It's Dark Myster's creation.
Please don't cry, horsey...
We still need your power.
You, Dark Myster's men!
Stop the car.
What do you want?
Set our people free.
If you just do what we say, we won't do you any harm.
And if I say no?
It's for the sake of our fellows.
If it's necessary, I must kill you.
That sounds exciting.
Hey!
Shoot!
Stop!
What a foolish man...
What's that monstrous gun you have there?
Your skill is still quite impressive.
I'll say it just one more time.
Release our people.
Go to hell!
You will be sorry...
We couldn't find any clues today.
Take it easy.
You're right.
Maybe not today, but there is always tomorrow.
I'll rest up for that!
Good night.
What?
What is it?
Who the hell fired that cannon?
Over there!
Whoever disturbs my sleep...
...is dead!
We lost him.
What?
What's this weird looking gun?
Look!
It's a Matchlock.
...called a Hinawajyu in Japanese.
L-Look at this huge...
Hey, are you okay?
See the huge caliber?
Certainly.
Steel that can take that much shock is hard to find.
But making this kind of steel pipe is a piece of cake for us...
...because we have been forging steel for a long time.
Which means...
This gun was made by my people!
So they are definitely here!
Oh no!
Sinunora!
I got the woman.
Come to Bone Peak.
Do you think Bone Peak is the hill with the Gallows?
I think so.
Let's go!
Why did you kidnap Sinunora?
We are not your enemy!
Isn't it a man called Shitalnen?
Wait, it was just a little mix-up...
The leader will be back soon.
The leader?
You mean the guy I talked to?
Uh, yeah!
What's this smell?
Smells like a burning fuse!
You are correct!
Easy there...
So, what should I do with this matchlock?
You can go ahead and return it to me.
Great job on the barrel!
That bone looks just like a woman's private place!
Hey, we won't fall for that kind of stupid trick!
Let me see, do women's places have bones?
I guess you all are stupid!
Bastard!
O-Oh, I can't believe you guys left me!
Help!
Wait for me!
How did you know that they weren't real samurai?
Well...
After a shot is fired, you must hold the same posture for a moment...
...that's how the masters of matchlock do it.
No samurai would throw his gun to the side and run off.
From the moment I saw the Matchlock abandoned in the hotel...
...I knew something was wrong.
But they had kimono and Samurai swords...
Look at this!
They are samurai sabers.
Are they replicas?
They are true samurai sabers.
It's well taken care of...
How did you get these?
Samurai left them, saying they didn't need them anymore.
A samurai's sword is his soul!
Well, it wasn't true what I said.
I saw a lot of dead samurai in a hollow on the outskirts of the town.
I picked them up from there.
This guy is still alive!
Hold on!
S-Shitalnen got us...
Don't force yourself to speak!
I will call a doctor now!
Wait!
P-Please, save our people...
You are the only Samurai left...
Yes...
I promise I will save them.
T-Thank you...
You are one of us...
He was a great Samurai...
Why?
Everyone, hang in there!
Our people will come and rescue us soon.
Until then, stick it out!
I'm afraid not.
No way!
I killed all of your fellows.
The Soul of the Samurai, or whatever you call it...
...was scrap iron compared to my newest scientific weapon.
Your matchlocks are quite powerful, however.
Because of your technical skills, I am keeping you alive.
If you can't finish that, there is no reason for you to live.
We still need to work out some details.
Give us a little more time.
You think I'll keep you alive as long as you are working on it?
Think again, I will kill you now if you can't finish it.
All right.
We'll finish in two days.
Remember to keep your word.
Mr. Shitalnen, those guys are mucking around town.
Okay, I will kill them myself this time.
Here they come!
No, not here.
Right, we can't let the townsfolk get hurt.
Get them!
Look...
That Auto-Carriage thing is pretty slow.
Maybe Shitalnen isn't really that scary.
Maybe...
Oh, no...
It's a dead-end.
You must be Shitalnen!
Indeed.
You've been getting in our way...
But now, I am afraid it's time for you to die.
All that's left is for you to say good-bye.
No way!
Tochiro, no!
What?
Did you see the firing speed of that Gatling gun?
It's probably belt-fed by the engine.
I'll cover you.
Jump into the hole!
Okay!
Now is our chance!
Don't lose them!
Damn!
Tochiro, don't!
Let me go!
Our enemies are right in front of me.
Wake up! If you die...
...who will avenge your people?
It's another dead-end...
Come on!
Hurry!
Hurry, Tochiro!
I'll get you!
Should we go after them?
Let them go for now.
We don't want to damage our town any more.
Besides, it's more fun this way.
Shit, shit, shit!
Don't give up, Tochiro.
There is always tomorrow.
You can't save your sister if you are like this.
Let's eat!
Let's eat for tomorrow...
...and then let's sleep for tomorrow!
That's the spirit!
Don't be surprised to see how tough I am tomorrow, Shitalnen!
I'm gonna be much stronger tomorrow than today.
I will knock you down!
It's a place where a song of crumbled dreams and ambitions...
...can be heard in the wind at night.
Yes, this is Gun Frontier.
Listen to their song carefully.
Gun Frontier...
Where a man's power...
...has nothing to do with right or wrong.
Next episode, Shitalnen.
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...
