Sengoku Youko (2024) s01e06 Episode Script

1
What's up with him? It's creepy.
He's probably thinking of
something overambitious again.
Say whatever you want.
I have a demon sword this time.
The demon sword Arabuki.
It's been passed down in the Raidou Clan
and it possesses the power
to control the wind.
You're giving me a demon sword?
Yes.
I will now go to Lord Yoshiteru.
Who is Yoshiteru?
The shogun, Yoshiteru Ashikaga.
No way you're that clueless.
To atone for the wrongdoings Hisahide
Matsunaga coerced my sister into,
I must serve and defend the shogun.
Then you'll need this yourself.
I met him once when he was on
a covert training journey.
Lord Yoshiteru is
a true master of the sword.
He's a genius swordsman.
It was as if he had a halo.
I do not want to bring
a sword of darkness close to that man.
Besides, even though I know
my sister reaped what she sowed,
it does make me feel sad.
It doesn't have to be full-blown revenge,
but please make sure to
strike back at that Jinun guy.
Please.
Old man
Impossible.
A man is on his knees offering me a sword!
A real man would
face the impossible in return!
Don't worry, old man.
I will make him feel sorry.
I feel like I've become so much stronger.
You shouldn't do that.
This is what happens
when you have too little spiritual power.
If you're not careful you'll be sliced up,
or blown way up into the clouds.
Say things like that earlier!
You already benefit from just carrying it,
so just leave it alone for now.
I feel like I've become so much weaker
I cannot walk another step.
That's fine.
Stay here forever.
You idiot.
Is this really
the right direction to Kagan's home?
Kagan says we're getting close.
I'm sure we'll be there soon.
Is that so?
-Master Jinka.
-Hm?
Journeys are really fun.
She's so easygoing.
And that's despite knowing
we'll be facing a dragon soon.
And I need to be able to
use Arabuki before then.
I know you can do it, Master Shinsuke.
R-Really?
Yes!
Thanks.
You're saying baseless things again.
Shut up! If you don't stop talking,
I'll lose my motivation.
This smell!
Guys! Follow me!
W-What happened?
That look on her face
I knew it was the Shoujou!
Youko.
What do you want?
That's liquor, right? I know it is!
I won't ask to have it for free!
Trade me one jug for one daikon.
No thanks.
Move.
What about two then?
Just as I thought.
Jinka! Don't we have more daikon?
We don't.
This liquor belongs to a guest.
If you want some, ask the guest.
Then lead the way!
Let's go! Come on, everyone.
She's so much more motivated than usual.
Shoujou liquor is a special case.
"Shoujou"?
They're Katawara
famous for their love of liquor.
Shaku Kagan knows that, right?
The famous enchanted liquor
I didn't expect to experience it
while in this body.
Kagan?
Shakuyaku said it's okay.
So I'll come out to talk
whenever I feel like it.
Sweet like a spring, deep like the ocean
and powerful like a waterfall.
As I expected of Shoujou liquor.
Douren. These people want liquor.
Negotiate.
He's massive.
He's even bigger than that Jinun guy.
Oh, you know Jinun?
Huh?
You four are a mix of human and Katawara.
Are you lot the ones
who attacked the head temple?
You're Dangaishuu?
Indeed I am.
I am a Dangaishuu Beast Leader.
Douren the Tiger.
Calm down.
I have no orders to subdue you.
But I probably can't
ignore the situation either.
Then let's see who can drink the most!
If we win, let us go!
That is an excellent idea. Let's do it.
Seriously?
Are you sure about this?
He looks like he can drink a ton.
Don't worry.
He's already been drinking quite a bit.
All of us are sober.
The odds are in our favor.
Cheers!
Master Jinka!
After just one drink?!
That's an unexpected weakness.
Also, this tastes incredible!
-It's delicious!
-It's delicious!
It is, isn't it?
Shoujou liquor is the world's finest!
This enchanted liquor
does the legends justice.
It seeps right into
every fiber of my being.
You're quite something yourself, huh?
You know who we are, yet
you didn't hesitate to calmly sit down.
Same goes for you.
I am not someone you easily challenge
to a drinking contest.
How did a Dangaishuu
come to be served by the Shoujou?
You want to know?
Sure, I'll tell you
a story to go with the drink.
I wanted to exterminate the tiger Katawara
that wreaked havoc on this mountain.
However, this tiger was terribly powerful.
I ran away, fleeing into the forest
There I met the Shoujou
who were trembling in fear of the tiger.
Then an idea struck me
to use their liquor as bait
and I successfully
managed to weaken the tiger.
But the tiger was still powerful,
After two nights of battle,
I was left battered and bruised.
The tiger sobered up
and my power was dwindling,
and I feared that it would be the end.
But then!
The brave Shoujou took a jug
filled to the brim with water
and dropped it on the tiger's head.
As the tiger faltered,
I struck it with a final punch.
And that is how
the Shoujou and I became friends.
So therefore!
Let's toast
the Shoujou's bravery and booze!
Cheers!
Yum!
Jinka!
I feel good today.
I can still keep on talking.
Anything you want to know?
Something we want to know?
Aye. I will answer anything.
In that case
Tell us the weakness of
the dragon man Jinun.
His weakness?
Yes. Did you not say
you would answer anything?
Sure. His weakness is
he can't eat spicy food.
No, that's not what I meant.
"If you push behind his ear,
he'll explode."
Something like that.
If you mean to defeat Jinun,
then it's impossible.
Because the one who will defeat him is me.
What?
He and I were fellow fighters
from the same province.
I followed him and joined the Dangaishuu.
My life revolved around
becoming a better warrior than him.
Jinun is powerful.
I doubt anyone but I can beat him.
You too must be an enhanced human,
concealing a rather formidable Katawara.
That's for you to find out later.
You are a good drinker.
Where did you learn that, Youko?
Is it your first time trying good liquor?
Good liquor?
Oh, this is liquor?
Okay, let me teach you
how to drink alcohol.
I wonder where.
Your face gives it away.
You're a funny guy.
I'm sad to have to beat you.
You, beat me?
That is funny.
Well
Now
I can't drink any more. Give me a break
Don't you dare sleep yet, big baldie!
I'll have to stop too if you quit!
Shoujou! Bring us more booze!
It's morning!
My head hurts
Let's go, shall we?
Just because you didn't drink at all
I did drink two sips.
Hey, kiddo.
I did not get to talk to you much,
but next time we meet,
let's have our fists do the talking.
Yes.
Don't let the darkness beat you.
Douren is a good guy.
Will you two fight?
One day
I see.
You will fight.
I didn't see that coming, though.
A Dangaishuu can get along with Katawara.
I'm not so sure.
He might be killing the Shoujou today.
You think so?
If he's that kind of person,
wouldn't he have killed us last night?
You're too naive.
Just because you drank together
That's not why! I
Okay, stop, stop!
Stop right here.
We should talk about fun things
while we're traveling.
Shakugan.
Whose side are you on? Humans or Katawara?
Don't ask something so childish!
I am on Master Jinka's, Master Shinsuke's,
and Master Tama's side. On everyone's.
Shaku's on the right track here.
Just cut it out, guys.
Okay, let's get going.
Yep.
I learned how cute Jinka gets
when he's drunk.
-Do you want me to leave you here?
-He was so cute.
It's a barrier
Is it protecting the village?
Let me see.
-What was that?
-Is the spellcaster on the inside?
It's likely.
Excuse me! We are travelers!
Please let us through!
He's probably mad you threw that rock.
Looks like we'll have to go around.
Kagan wants to go through here.
Though it just seems like a hunch
We're heading for Kagan's hometown.
We should follow.
Should we try digging a hole to go under?
We might be able to
open a tiny hole for a second.
Given the size of the hole and
the limited time, only one person can go.
Okay, then I'll go in and talk to them.
Elder sister?
Leave it to me.
I understand.
Come to think of it,
I've never seen
her negation attempts go well.
You really need to start
saying things like that earlier!
It's It's fine!
Master Tama delivers
when it really counts.
Hey.
Anyone here?
I don't think it's a trap
-Stop.
-Huh?
I am Fukou.
I protect this village.
The spellcaster
I am Tama.
What are you protecting the village from?
-From change.
-Change?
Have you never thought
that it would be nice
if tomorrow never came?
So that happiness lasts forever,
and unhappiness doesn't linger.
That's absurd.
Oh, so you have thought of it.
Your human friend died.
I see. It was an illness.
That's when you thought, that if tomorrow
never came, he wouldn't need to die.
It's reading my mind
That's so sad.
Let me protect you.
I will protect you.
Come, come with me.
What's going on? Nothing's changed.
Nothing we can do about it.
All we can do is wait.
Hey, hey.
Hey, hey, you.
Who's that?
Are you people the ones
who jacked up our head temple?
Jinka Yamato.
Dangaishuu
Yeah.
I'm a Dangaishuu Beast Leader, Resshin.
I came to scold you, bad boy.
Jinka can't transform without Tama.
Stop that.
I will handle this.
Master Jinka.
But you
I will take him down.
Even without my sister's power.
Nice guts, boy.
What is that?!
This is Master Yazen's
special tool, Banhoutai.
I can take stuff from it anywhere.
Yazen
Western blade!
So that's how it works
Hey, hey, come on boy.
Why do you protect this village, Fukou?
Because the villagers wanted me to.
From bad harvests, epidemics, and war.
I was born from their fear of
a tomorrow that is even worse than today.
Tomorrow doesn't have to be bad.
Sometimes it heals wounds
or sprouts the rice.
Remove the barrier.
Cowering with your eyes and ears closed
will do nothing to help this village.
No way.
Don't mess with me!
Ouch!
Stop! Wait!
Hey. Fukou.
Even if you hide
Fukou. Let's talk.
I'll protect you. Along with this village.
Like your friend who fell ill,
I'll protect you
so that your happiness lasts forever.
You can't.
The time I spent with Genzou was
indeed filled with happiness.
His death hurt.
But time moves on.
Genzou passed away,
but I met his son Jinka,
and we became sworn siblings.
I met Shinsuke and Shakugan too.
I am happy now.
I will protect that happiness.
I'll prevent any interference.
You can't do that either.
You are not preventing
the most important thing.
The important thing?
The flow of time.
You put a barrier around this village,
but it's already become a ruin.
Tomorrow did come.
Without the cycle of life,
the village stagnated.
They consumed, but never replenished.
Tell me, Fukou.
What are you protecting what from?
And why?
To accomplish the reason I was born
I'm fulfilling my first order.
To prevent negativity or change.
You protected it well.
If you stop now,
it won't change your orders,
or deny the reason you were born.
You fulfilled your duty.
And you even tried to protect me.
Thank you.
Good job.
That's the first time
Anyone ever
Told me that.
The barrier is gone.
Sister!
Don't you dare look away!
Special move. Serious punch!
-Jinka!
-Master Jinka!
Wha
Serious counter punch!
Serious panties?
What's "panties"?
I think it means to strike someone.
A western language?
We can go through the village now.
Master Tama!
What happened?
I wanted to fight him myself
without spiritual transformation.
But
I see.
You don't have to.
It makes me happy when you rely on me.
Thank you, elder sister.
So what was going on in there?
A sad village that silently decayed
as a sad Katawara
fulfilled its reason for living.
You can't make a problem go away
by ignoring it.
Really?
Now, let's go.
Give me your hand, Shaku.
Okay.
I know.
The life of a Katawara
is longer than a human's.
Much longer.
Okay, here we are.
This is it, Kagan and Sougan's hometown.
Here?
Nothing's
Oh, you are home, my brother.
W-What is that?!
I'm home!
