In October 1864, according to the government's order to punish the Choshu clan,
an army of more than 100,000 men moved towards Hiroshima.
Shortly before that, in August, the province of Choshu was attacked by the combined Western fleet.
The anti-foreign movement became increasingly weak.
To justify themselves to the Shogunate, three Choshu daimyo committed seppuku in November.
As a result, the Shogunate army returned without engaging in battle.
But suddenly, the Takasugi Shinsaku units started fighting in Choshu province.
Takasugi was displeased with the hesitancy of the clan's top brass and wanted to lead all the Choshu people.
The prospect of a clash between the Choshu army and the Shogunate became a reality again.

Episode 34 Chaos in the Terada-ya
I think I should leave the dojo.
Chiba Dojo, Edo
I visited a dojo the other day...
It is not rich, and few students are trained there.
But teachers are the embodiment of fighting spirit.
I saw something I had almost forgotten.
When I entered, I felt that I had found my place in life.
Do you want to change your style?
I'll start over.
Please forgive me for not living up to your expectations.
Where will you go?
The dojo owner is getting married soon.
I want to attend this beautiful man's wedding.
It's time for me to go.
The next day, Yamanami-San officially left the Chiba dojo.
When I visited Chiba and the conversation turned to Yamanami-San,
the head of the dojo asked what had happened to him.
When he left, no one knew how it would end...
All our people are shocked that he bought out his woman and left with her.
But I know exactly how he felt.
He found his true place in life.
I think so too.
I apologize.
Are you not feeling well?
No, it's all right.
Would you like to take a walk in Kyoto?
You must be tired.
You need to walk and rest.
That would be good... if I could stay with you and see you every day.
I don't mind.
Don't ask for the impossible.
I can't leave Osaka, I have to work.
Unless you buy me out.
That's what I meant.
If you don't mind...
Terada-ya, Fushimi
Yamanami-San gave me this before he died.
What does he write?
(The hieroglyphs mean " I Entrust this to you.") Instruction.
What does he charge?
Not so long ago, I thought it was possible to establish peace within the country and unite all the provinces,
but no one wants to unite.
That's why people who don't have prejudices against other clans,
our country needs people like you.
March 5, 1865, Kyoto
About moving our rates in the Western Hongan-JI temple...
Vice commander Hijikata and military adviser ito will go there to discuss all the details.
Are we in too much of a hurry?
Everyone knows that Yamanami-San was against it.
He just died...
How can you be in such a hurry?
Everything was decided before his death.
There is too much about Yamanami-San here.
That's why I want to get out of here as soon as possible.
Ito-Sensei, you can go. I'll come back later.
Obey.
Moving on to the next question?
The commander of the Condo today will go to the Terada-ya.
Rumor has it that this hotel harbors the ronin Choshu.
The commander will personally question Otose.
Why would the commander personally conduct a search?
I can go.
Let's listen to the commander.
But...
I'll go.
So it's settled.
Further.
Isn't all this suspicious?
If our people find out that you are taking Miyuki from Terada-ya, they will be shocked.
Everyone in the squad already knows that you're buying Miyuki out.
You just have to go and say it.
After all, a commander can have a mistress or two.
It's not what you think.
I don't understand it.
Kondo-Sensei is not the type to have a mistress.
After all, he has a beautiful wife in Edo, Tsune.
Only a child could say that.
I'm going to send a letter to Edo.
I'll tell Tsune-San everything.
It's time to go to Terada-ya.
Sorry to keep you waiting.
The commander went to Terada-ya to buy out Miyuki.
I heard something like that, too.
Would she be his mistress?
What's wrong?
I can't say anything.
Why?
I know what the commander's feelings are.
Yamanami-San went to his death with a smile because he met Akesato.
Isn't that right?
I don't know.
I thought about it and decided to buy a geisha in Osaka.
What are you talking about?
Her name is Kotsune.
Means...
She was a friend of a friend of mine who died in Edo.
When I left Edo, he begged me to give her a hairpin, his posthumous gift.
When I a month ago went to Edo, I wanted to see him, with Hachiro.
But the room he rented was empty.
So he's dead?
I feel sorry for him.
And you drove up to your friend's woman?
Don't talk nonsense.
I will be Wachira and will make Kotone happy.
Maybe we'll fall in love.
How romantic!
And when will this happen?
Do you want to marry her?
First of all, I want to have a final conversation with her.
Well, well, everyone has a beautiful love.
Can we get married, too?
Don't be silly.
I'll make you happy.
I think you're a good couple.
Excuse me.
Where are we going?
I want you to see someone.
With whom?
Come and find out.
Yes, with whom?
Faster.
It's me, Heiske. I brought Okita-San.
Soji!
Sister!
And Tsune-San!
It was like being struck by lightning.
Terada-I
Welcome.
Thanks for the trouble.
To be honest, I don't really like Shinsengumi.
But Kioi chubei told me that you want to buy Miyuki back.
It broke the ice in my heart.
But I still don't like people from Shinsengumi.
I'll help you as a Condo from Tam.
The boat seems to be late.
I'll let you know when she arrives.
Thanks.
Condo?!
He's waiting for a woman to come in a boat from Osaka.
He would leave as soon as he met her.
Sorry to cause you problems.
I don't have much time. I want to ask you...
Take me to Katsura-San.
It's impossible.
I must speak to him as soon as possible.
I don't know how he'll react...
I wrote a letter. Please pass it to Katsura-San.
This is very important. The fate of Japan depends on it.
Will you help me?"
If there's anything I can do for you...
Please give me ore-San.
I'm in love with her, and I want to marry her.
And what this says about the op itself?
I haven't spoken to her yet.
If she agrees, I don't mind.
Would you be upset if she chose me?
I promise.
Thanks.
I apologize for all the problems that members of the Shinsengumi have caused you.
What are we talking about? They work for the government.
It's an honor to live alongside the defenders of the law.
These three months have dragged on so long...
Last month, it was three years since their arrival.
I went through a lot with them.
They're good people, aren't they?
Yes, it is.
Is This Miyuki Daiyu?!
Why the hell did you invite Tsune to come when this is happening?
Anyway, it's too late.
She wanted to see Kyoto.
Is Kondo-Sensei going to live with her?
I heard he hired a room for her not far from here.
Well, well... I didn't think he was that kind of person.
Only children say that.
There was no way he could bring Miyuki right here.
What should we do?
Calm Down, Heiske.
Will you call Hijikata-San here?
Western Hongan-JI temple
We thank you for helping Shinsengumi.
We will not tarnish the name of Western Hongan-JI.
We will make several rooms out of this hall.
It will be good.
We will take bamboo fences and divide the hall into rooms.
The bathroom is too big.
Maybe use this part of the hall in a different way?
We can use it as a punishment cell for the Choshu ronins.
Perfectly.
We can practice shooting in the garden.
Borrow some guns from Aizu.
We'll keep the weapons here.
I'll make arrangements immediately.
Okita Mitsu wants to reach out to all of you.
Listen carefully.
Thank you for your efforts.
I'm Mitsu, Soji's older sister.
News of the great deeds of the Shinsengumi reached even Edo!
Continue to protect the city from scoundrels who defied the government!
And take care of my little brother.
Keep working for the shogun!
You have an interesting sister.
Tsune-Chan!
Sit down!
You look great.
You too, Nagakura-San.
Don't you want to contact our people?
I'll leave it to Mitsu-San.
I don't know anyone there.
This is further proof that there are many people in Shinsengumi.
We came back from a patrol.
This is Tsune-San.
I think you might have caught a glimpse of her at the commander's wedding.
Thank you for your help back then.
Don't thank me.
Didn't you say Hello?
Not yet.
Let's.
This Is Kondo Shuhei.
This is Kondo-Sensei's wife.
In short, she is your mother!
So it's you...
Do you know about me?
Yes.
My name is Shuhei.
My name is Tsune.
Can I go?
Yes.
He's not very sociable.
In this, he is a copy of my husband.
I haven't yelled like that in a long time!
You raise our morale.
You are a beautiful woman.
Nagakura-San and Sanosuke!
Mit-Chan!
Long time no see.
Introduce me.
Sister, this is hide-San, from Yaga's family.
Nice to meet you.
Did you write about her?
Don't talk about it.
She's so sweet, just like you wrote.
Thank you for taking care of Soji.
Heiske-San said that Kat-Chan is now in Fushimi.
Fushimi's not far from here, is it?
I want to go there and look at it.
Did you really write to your sister that I was cute?
I don't think you should go to Fushimi.
Let them go. He'll be surprised.
Too will be surprised.
I'll show you the way.
Nagakura-San, they are already tired.
I can call a palanquin.
Don't, they're in no hurry, and it's expensive.
Shinsengumi has enough money for a palanquin.
Yes, put it in the official expenses of the unit.
You should not waste Shinsengumi's finances on such trifles.
Let's just wait for it.
These are the five re you gave me on your wedding day.
I can finally repay the debt.
You are not required to return this money.
I don't like being in debt.
The commander said it was your money.
Please accept.
Take.
In that case...
Can you call a palanquin with this money?
Certainly.
Why the hell did you do that?
Where is Tsune-San?
She went to Terada-I on a palanquin.
Heck! We have problems.
This is my mistake.
What should I do now?
Let's go.
This is my mistake.
The boat arrived.
Can you go?
You don't know, where nearby it is well prepared to Daifuku?
Candy store, right down the street.
This is her favorite dish.
He's waiting for you.
Please follow me.
Are you okay?
I was seasick.
I don't know why, but the commander's wife is sitting right outside.
Oh, God.
No time to explain. You understand?
I'm the Manager of the tea house.
I've seen a lot of family scenes.
Leave everything to me.
Allow me!
Come in!
Are you from Edo? They must have come a long way.
Is Kondo Isami here?
Yes, he's here.
What a surprise!
Yes, we are here to surprise you.
When I saw you outside, my heart almost jumped out of my chest.
Why didn't you say Hello?
I was so shocked that he lost the gift of speech.
Please drink.
Kondo-Sensei, your friend has been waiting for you for a long time!
Is she here yet?
You have such a lovely wife.
What are you talking about?..
Not here.
We're going in.
Kondo-Sensei has already arrived.
I followed Daifuku...
Look at his face!
We arrived.
Kondo-Sensei is still here.
Really?
What'll we do?
I'll come back later.
You can rest easy.
He has so many problems of his own right now that he will not be up to you.
He's in a room in the wing.
Enter.
You said you were here...
We wanted to surprise you!
Are you upset?
No, no.
I heard about Yamanami-San...
What's this?
Can I take it? How did you guess to bring them!
Do not. He didn't know we were coming, it's for someone else.
Oh, that's right.
Who did you buy them for?
Thank you for buying them for me.
I love the Daifuku of this store.
I'm sorry you had to cover for me.
What should we do now?
Are you aware of the current situation?
Yes, in General terms.
Can't you have Miyuki at your place until my wife returns to Edo?
No problem.
Can you think about this proposal?
If Choshu and Satsuma are United, we can win over to their side and the court,
and as soon as the Emperor is on our side, the Shogunate is finished.
And then the Japanese will stop killing each other.
Sakamoto-kun, is that why you called me?
You are the only person who can influence the Choshu clan.
Choshu and Satsuma will unite, then...
Aizu and Satsuma drove the Choshu people out of Kyoto.
And we well remember how many of our own were killed by Satsuma samurai.
We will never be United.
But you hate the Shogunate, don't you?
Yes, it is.
I thought you might suggest something useful.
Kondo Isami is sitting at the bottom. Be careful.
What's he doing here?
His wife and mistress almost collided nose to nose, and he just panicked.
What a fool...
Let's go.
Is something bothering you?
I'll go look for them.
Did you give this to Iwakura?
You mean the rag?
I thought I'd meet him tomorrow.
Hurry up! The fate of Choshu depends on it!
From a rag?
Cateske! What are you doing here?
I work for the royalists.
I know it's you. You Are Katsura Kogoro.
You take me for someone else.
I'm sure you're Katsura.
I'm not Katsura. I'm Hiroe Kosuke from Izushi.
Come make a fool of me!
Aren't you Katsura-San? I know you!
Depart.
Kondo Isami's mistress is nearby.
I must return to the Shinsengumi district as soon as possible.
I'll take you to the new house a little later.
Please spend the night here.
I don't mind.
You're a busy man, you've got the whole squad on you.
The ronins are ready to rebel at any moment.
Thank you for your help.
Kondo-Sensei, be kind to her.
I have to go.
I apologize...
Kat-Chan, who is this?
What's going on here? Express himself.
I'll explain everything.
This is Miyuki Daiyu from Osaka.
She came here after they bought her out.
So that's what Kondo-Sensei does.
You bought this woman out and made her your mistress.
In Kyoto, geisha are not called "oiran", but "taiya".
It doesn't matter.
You don't seem to understand me at all.
Miyuki-San didn't buy out Kondo-Sensei.
All this is the work of Another-Sensei.
You should have had the courage to say it yourself!
Gen-San?
I know it's too late to fall in love at my age, but...
It's not a crime, is it?
Her name is Oyuki.
I'll make you happy, I promise.
Stop it!
Tsune-San, this is my woman!
Stand back!
Oyuki, excuse me. I'm in love, and I'm not leaving here without you.
Oyuki, when did you get mixed up with him?
Forgive me!
Toshizo, how could you!
Stop it! Enough!
Thank you for covering for me!
Go away, please.
Let it remain only Tsune and Oyuki.
Well, let's go!
I apologize.
Come on.
How stupid.
Sister, it's your own fault for entering without warning.
Why me?
I thought I'd write you a letter and tell you everything...
I will be sincere.
The past two years have not been easy.
We've been through a lot, and it's been hard for all of us.
Miyuki helped me through these difficult times.
She got sick.
So that she wouldn't feel alone, I called her to Kyoto.
I want her to rest here from the hard work.
That's what I wanted to say.
Will you let me talk to her alone?
I want to talk to her like a woman to a woman.
Leave everything to them.
They both seem very reasonable.
You just have to wait.
Would you like to take a bath?
He looks awkward and awkward...
And that's how I can always tell he's lying.
Everything he said was a lie.
He asked you to come to Kyoto because he loves you.
The rest is just an excuse.
I'm happy that Kondo-Sensei treats me like this.
But now that it's come to this... I can't stay here with him.
Stay with him.
Oh, it's been a long time.
Not so long ago, he lost a very close friend.
I'm sure he's still suffering a lot.
But I wasn't there for him.
And you were.
I don't like that.
But my duty is to be in the dojo in Edo.
So take my place.
Are you really?...
You don't know what kind of woman I am.
My husband wouldn't love a bad woman.
Take care of Kondo Isami, please.
Just promise me one thing...
That you will only stay with him as long as he lives in Kyoto.
Only while he lives in Kyoto.
Obey.
Well, how are you doing?
Everything settled?
I don't know yet.
You're a woman lover, I see.
Hell, I'm sorry, but I don't work for the Shogunate anymore.
What do you want to say?
I can no longer look at what is happening in the government.
You mean the country no longer needs a Shogunate?
I didn't say that.
But there are a lot of weak-willed and stupid people up there.
If we support them, foreigners will tear our country to pieces.
We must defend Japan on our own.
I recognize that the government is weakening.
Hatamoto forgot about the country, blinded by their pride.
But, Sakamoto-San, we still live only because the country is kept by the shogun.
You don't want to destroy the Shogunate, do you?
Who thinks about it...
Let's not talk about it.
I don't think we'll meet again.
Forgive.
The next time we meet, we'll probably be enemies.
