I'm Kondo Isami from Tam.
The IP, having been in his native place,
won the fight against the robbers who terrorized his village, and for the first time killed a man.
If I wasn't a samurai, I wouldn't have to kill.
Since 1857 the Tokugawa Shogunate has been under pressure from various countries,
for the government to finally open Japan to trade.
Yoshida Shoin and Hashimoto Sanai, who were against it, started organizing an anti-foreign movement.
This movement will lead to serious events, and will become the engine of mass riots.
The time is coming when your talents will be needed.
You must fight together in these difficult times.

Episode 3 The return of the mother.
Subtitles by Graft
It's been a while.
Yes, since that time, as there was a Black Squadron.
It really was a long time ago!
August 14, 1858, Edo
Going back to Tosa?
The clan ordered me to return.
Do you want to go back, Sakamoto-San?
I came here to learn fencing, as my clan wanted.
Really...
If they want me back, I don't mind.
What will you do when you return to Tosa?
Have no idea.
I'll be out for a minute.
I recognized the passer-by.
This is Hashimoto Sanai-San of the Matsudaira clan.
This is Kondo Isami-San from the Shieikan dojo.
Sanai and I are students of Shozan-Sensei.
I heard you were going to Tosa.
You have acute hearing! Yes, I'm leaving now.
Now?
You will not be able to come back here?
I don't know.
It would be nice if you didn't come back.
Is something wrong?
The MiTo clan had received orders from the Emperor regarding the Eighth.
Kondo and I saw Black Ships.
Is Shozan-Sensei all right?
Have you heard? Arrest him.
His apprentice, Yoshida Shoin, boarded a Black Ship to sail to the United States.
He was held responsible for the incident.
Did you hear what happened during the interrogation?
During the interrogation, Sensei insulted a Northern magistrate official.
In view of treason to the Shogunate...
What is it?
Did you say "hankaku"? How do you spell it?
Perhaps it would be correct to read "enkaku"?
"EN" as in the word "coup", and "Kaku" as in the word "revolution" should reflect the essence of the word "treason".
(pronounces "enkaku" ^_^) In view of treason to the Shogunate...
So I was right!
What audacity!
Shogan is a Sensei in his repertoire...
It was careless of him.
This behavior only makes the situation worse.
Can we continue the conversation somewhere else?
If you don't mind, you can stay at my house.
It's not far.
I'll go out first.
Sheikan?
Yes, this is CoreCo.
See you soon.
It is necessary to wash down the powder of Isida sake, and...
...this sword won't hurt me, like it's stupid!
Here, see for yourself!
Now that you have seen the effect, you can buy!
Use one packet of this powder plus sake once a day, and be cured of any pain that torments you!
Shieikan Dojo"
I feel best in the dojo.
Have you ever thought about your future?
What will you do in ten years?
Will I be a high-ranking member of the clan?.. or become a teacher in the dojo?
I would prefer the latter.
I've heard that Tennen Rishin Ryu's style is strong and decisive.
It was created for war.
Is he stronger than Hokushin ITTO Ryu?
Who knows?..
I'd like to fight you one day.
I agree.
What are you doing here?
I wanted to make tea.
Don't think. Leave.
I have a guest!
I don't know about the guests.
Well... I invited him.
I'll do it in front of you.
Don't look inside.
Don't touch.
Don't sigh.
Where's the welding?
I can only offer you hot water.
Not experience.
I apologize...
Is this a friend of yours?
Well yes...
I want to talk to you.
Right now?
You can do it later.
Will you help me?
Aha. I'll come back later.
The MiTo clan has gone into its own internal problems.
Was it bad that MiTo had received Imperial orders?
This means a loss of face for the government of the bakufu.
But now you can open to expel the foreigners.
But, of course, they will try to return.
Head of government Li believes that his suspicions about the MiTo clan were confirmed by Imperial orders.
I'm sorry, can you tell me what you're talking about?
I don't think... the less you know , the better you sleep.
Have you seen Gen-San?
No.
Sojiro, this...
There you are!
I competed with Gen-San.
The winner has the right to color the defeated one.
You don't have to wash all day.
That was the deal.
We discuss matters of national importance.
Can you go to the other room?
It's good to be young.
His opponent is no longer a boy.
We are going to the temple for the festival.
You want to go?
Okay, but get out of here faster!
Please forget all this.
What happens now?
The Li faction will try to suppress the anti-foreign faction.
It's not up for discussion!
I didn't try to hide anything.
Don't be angry!
The time is not far off when people like us will rule the clans and the entire country.
He's calling you.
Please wait.
How can you solve such problems yourself?
That's why I'm talking to you now.
You've probably already made up your own mind.
Still, I haven't decided anything yet.
Is that so? Then please cancel everything.
Don't say that.
The IP, say something!
What are we talking about?
About your future marriage.
This is a great match.
She is the daughter of Matsui Yasugoro-San, a vassal of the Tokugawa daimyo Shimizu himself.
I'm against it!
Do you have a little time?
No, I just stopped by for a minute.
I have Sakamoto-San sitting here.
Hi, it's been a long time!
I'll leave something here.
You sure?
You probably get injured in training, right?
Wash it down with sake.
That's too much.
I don't know when I'll be back in these parts.
What are these drugs?
He's a traveling drug dealer.
He sells powders of ISIS, which miraculously relieve the pain.
I think I'll take a couple too.
And me too.
Let me see.
How much per package?
It's fate that we meet again.
Take it for free.
Well, thank you.
I don't want to take it for nothing.
Shut up!
I am the owner of this house.
All you have to do is do what I say!
Mom!
Get out of the way!
Mom!
This is bad...
Where will mom go?
She has nowhere to go.
Do you have any idea where she might go?
She has an old friend... but I forgot her name.
She married a noble samurai and has not come to us for a long time.
So she had nothing to do there.
Perhaps she will return?
I doubt...
Where is Hashimoto-San?
He went home.
Gone?
He's a busy man.
I wanted to talk to him so much.
I'm going home, too.
I'll write to you.
I'll show you out."
Don't bother to see me off.
I don't know when I'll see you again.
Let me escort you.
First, I must pay my respects to someone.
I'll go with you.
Well, then can we fight?
If I hurt you, then you'll let me walk with you.
Enough.
Meet me at the Shinagawa bridge at 7: 00.
I was amazed.
What?
They are not much older than us, but they are already implementing their serious plans.
We are also already trying to fulfill our life plans.
I want to become one of the best healers in Japan.
And weren't you going to be the head of the best dojo in the country?
Is this a serious enough goal?
They are seriously concerned about the future of the country.
They talked about the head of the Li government, the MiTo clan, and the expulsion of foreigners.
These are great things!
None of this concerns me.
Shouldn't you go with him?
Can you stay with me?
I have to go to a meeting.
Thank you for visiting me.
Come back when you have time again.
Father, I think you're wrong.
Shut up.
Mom wants to be involved in making important decisions for the family.
Why didn't you talk to her before you made up your mind?
Every time I talked about your marriage, she wouldn't listen.
This is a very good match for you.
I saw his daughter.
Have you seen her?"
It's beautiful.
I was surprised.
She is beautiful, from a good family, and her character is not bad either.
I'm sure you'll love her.
Why are you suddenly worried about my future family?
Well, there are reasons for that.
I'm the last of the Kondo family.
The Kondo family has adopted peasant children for the past three generations.
It's time to add samurai blood to our family.
Do you love someone else?
No, no.
Tell me who.
I'll help you marry her.
I will refuse that marriage and try to Woo your woman.
Just tell me who she is.
Stop it, dad!
Why are you sitting here in the dark?
Today is the festival. Come, come, let's go!
Tell me who she is.
I know her?
Are you listening to me?
There will be a strange monster with a long neck.
I can't go.
Let's go. Quit your training for one day.
Sorry, I can't.
You don't know how to have fun.
Okay, I'm going.
Sojiro should be there by now.
Well, who is she?
Father, I would like to postpone the marriage.
Why?
I want to focus on my training.
And I want Shieikan to be the best dojo.
Hold on that side!
What are you doing here?
Your wife hired us.
So it's serious.
Where is she now?
She said not to tell you anything.
Hey, Toshi.
Can we do the show again?
I'm not in the mood today.
We have to sell all this before we get to Tama.
I'm very sorry, but we don't accept your challenge.
Don't want to lose?
Oh, no.
Take this and leave.
I'm a swordsman. I don't need that money.
You don't look much like a samurai.
So what?
Are you a farmer?
Is this a problem? I am as strong as any samurai.
I've seen a lot of people like you.
Are you afraid of fighting a peasant?
Next!
Please accept this.
I don't need money.
Please take it and leave.
I beg.
I sell ISIS powder!
It relieves any pain!
Hey, merchant!
Get in here now!
I'll be right in."
So it turned out, as you expected!
The cart reached Sanban-Cho's house.
Father!
It was because of me.
It's bad for the family that this happened...
Father...
She was my second wife. You were my adopted son.
Our family is like a house of cards.
A faint wind blew , and all were scattered.
Father... stop.
We must do something!
Let's go get mom.
Faster!
Thank you.
Toshi, we made good money.
You brought the "tail".
Get out!
And don't try to get away!
You are accomplices, then...
You will pay with your heads for your business.
So the peddler challenged the dojo?
Sometimes I have to sell drugs.
Don't try to deceive us!
To take them!
Run!
Learned your lesson?
Remember our words!
Damn it, they took everything!
And they also call themselves samurai...
They play dirty because they couldn't beat me one-on-one!
Spit.
Are you upset?
Not particularly.
Why?
You know what I was thinking while I was being beaten?
I remembered a beautiful woman I once loved.
She was really beautiful.
When I hugged her, I was afraid of damaging her skin.
Are you okay?
All the time they were hitting me, my mind was on her.
And that was my victory.
What are you, crazy?
It doesn't matter if it's good or bad...
Just remember...
This is the only way that peasants can fight samurai.
This is not true.
This is true.
Go home.
This is not true.
Not so!
Please excuse me.
Natsu
Welcome.
We haven't seen each other for a long time.
Go to the back rooms.
Are you her son?
How did you meet my mother?
Did Fudo-San tell you?
No.
Then I won't say anything.
How long have you known her?
I won't tell.
Did you talk to your mother?
Yes.
What did she say?
"Spilled water can't be returned."
What ?
She used to say that before the rainy season.
"The water that was spilled can't be collected again."
This is a proverb.
What does it mean?
It means that what happened happened.
I'd like to talk to my mother.
My father is sorry for what he said.
I've never seen him so depressed before.
Will you forgive him?
You may not be his own son, but you are very similar.
You think the same way.
What do you mean?
Isami-San, do you know what upset me?
Sorry, I can't guess.
You!
What did I do wrong?
Who do you think you are?
You really are a blockhead!
Where are you from?
From Tam.
True, you are the son of a peasant from Tam.
Have you forgotten about this?
No, I haven't forgotten.
And I'm proud of it.
Really...
Then stop acting like a samurai.
You can consider yourself a great samurai,
but you were adopted and adopted by a samurai family.
I think it's funny.
Everyone has a place in life.
No one can erase their past.
You should only be proud to bear the name Kondo.
And now you want to marry a samurai's daughter?
Or maybe you don't even want to!
You should know your place in life.
You are the son of a peasant.
Two swords on his belt...
Silk kimono on the shoulders...
It doesn't change things.
That's all I wanted to say.
I understood it all.
Can you tell me something else?
Do you hate me?
This should be clear and without words!
It's time for you to go home.
You are no longer young. Treat such problems easier.
If your son marries, part of the work will fall on his wife.
Your life will become easier.
Isami-San will one day inherit the dojo.
He can't marry the first girl he sees.
He had no objection to marriage?
Yes, he doesn't mind.
Why don't you agree?
Ask you.
I'm going home.
Thank you.
And don't scold your son.
You also have peasant blood in you!
That's why I hate him!
I should have had a harder life if I hadn't been so lucky.
And he accepts the samurai title so easily!
And that's why I can't forgive him!
I understand your concerns, but...
I can't let him take the samurai rank so lightly, just because I have peasant blood in me!
What happened?
Can I lie here for a while?
I'll get the medicine.
It's alright. Don't strain yourself.
Kat-Chan, will you teach me how to use a sword better?
I must become stronger.
Will you accept me as a disciple in Shieikan?
I want to become a samurai.
A samurai?
How are you.
It's impossible. Forget about it.
How can you say that?
I finally figured it out.
We are farmers from Tam.
Don't be silly. You're a normal samurai.
No.
We will always be farmers from Tam.
This is how life works.
I decided that I should be...
something more than just a samurai!
I will be a peasant, but with a spirit stronger than any samurai!
Do you really want to be strong?
You will not become a samurai.
I can become like a samurai.
Although it means about the same thing.
Training in Sheikan is very difficult.
That's all I want.
Toshi, attack!
