Yashahime: Princess Half-Demon (2020) s01e17 Episode Script

Ni kyô no wana

1
Towa and Setsuna.
Between us half-demon twins, two
different worlds exist at the same time.
Human and demon.
Feudal era and present day.
Peacefulness and war.
Joy and sorrow.
Dreams and reality.
One moment and eternity.
And finally, love and hate.
A Feudal Fairytale,
Yashahime: Princess Half-Demon.
We'll keep moving forward
through the hurdles of destiny!
CORPSE DEALER
Lord Riku, I'd like to return this to you.
-Are you done with it?
-Yes.
The Rainbow Pearl has
gotten me more bounties,
-and it's allowed me to make big profits.
-Is that so?
That's good to hear.
I suppose I should start making my move.
Here it is.
ONE OF THE FOUR PERILS – KONTON
You! Do not step on that.
Oh my goodness, I am terribly sorry.
Sir Konton, you sure
seem to be taking your time.
What did you say?
The Half-Demon Princesses keep defeating
you, and you've barely lifted a finger.
Are you fine with that?
This might be beyond your comprehension,
but I am preparing a field right now.
A field?
An eight field escape
trap. It's based on Fang magic.
However, I can't decide on the keystone.
It's an affixed focal point for power.
Do you want to be it?
Oh no, I'm not strong enough for the task.
Perhaps it'd be best if
you fulfilled that role yourself.
I need to be controlling the field.
Then, how about Mister Totetsu?
Totetsu, you say?
That glutton, huh
Of Lord Kirinmaru's Four Perils,
you and Mister Totetsu
are the only ones remaining.
Why not work together once in a while?
I don't know where
he is or what he's doing.
Please, leave that matter to
me. I'll look for him and bring him here.
If you want to bring someone
here, bring the Half-Demon Princesses.
This field is useless
unless someone lures them in.
All right, I'll think
of plan for that, too.
You're being quite generous.
Lord Kirinmaru's wish
is for the Rainbow Pearls
to be stolen from the
Half-Demon Princesses.
I hope you haven't forgotten about that.
I assure you, I haven't.
Totetsu as the keystone
"Trap of the Two Perils".
What?! This isn't Mount Musubi?
I heard over at the
village that this is Mount Musubi.
This is Mount Omusubi.
Omusubi?
See, look at that.
Doesn't that mountain look tasty?
So where's Mount Musubi?
Never heard of a mountain with that name.
Are you kidding me
CAT DEMON – KIRARA
Such a big misunderstanding.
You're acting like it's not your problem.
If we don't catch the Dream Butterfly,
we can't get your sleep back.
I have no issues with that.
Let's start heading back.
Dream Butterfly, where the heck are you?
Two of the Four Perils have been defeated,
and you still won't do anything?
You were supposed to kill
Sesshomaru's daughters for me.
Was I?
Yes, you were.
BEAST KING RULING THE FOUR PERILS
KIRINMARU
Riku seems to be on the move.
You're leaving things to him?
He is my most trusted retainer.
It will be fine.
Such an indolent person
CORPSE DEALER
Hey.
There's still some dust here.
Geez, shut up.
Mister Jyubei, don't you have
proper bounty hunting jobs for me?
Clearly, there aren't any.
Get your hands moving! Or else you
won't even make enough for today's meal.
I can't believe you're using me like this!
I'm the kind who can
make you loads of money!
I still think you were just lucky.
Shut up, you little racoon dog.
Whatever, you're just a quarter-demon!
Hello there.
What are we celebrating?
Lord Riku,
what business do you have today?
The thing is Oh, you're here.
My dear bounty hunter.
Huh? Me?
How's the slaying of
the Four Perils going?
If I remember correctly,
I left quite the hefty sum.
If it were up to me, I would've gone to
slay them myself and get that bounty,
and then bam, my debts would be paid,
I would breathe easy
But I have no idea where they ran off to.
My, I thought that might be the case.
So I heard a rumor regarding Totetsu.
Totetsu! The one who
goes around eating monks.
That's the one.
I heard that someone saw him.
If you know where he is,
then leave the rest to me.
Where are the demon slayer girls?
Probably in the village.
Let's go, Takechiyo.
Wait, why do I have to go?
Go help them.
Okay.
The Tree of Ages
hasn't come out since then.
She's the one who told us to slay
Kirinmaru, but I wonder if she gave up.
Or maybe, since we're defeating
Kirinmaru's underlings anyway,
she's just watching over us?
Instead of Kirinmaru,
I would much rather
There you are.
Hey!
Takechiyo? I wonder what's up? Huh?
Why is Riku with them?
We know where Totetsu is,
so let's go slay him.
How did you find out?
Some pirate friends of mine
gave me information.
Come on, let's go.
Are you fine with that?
What do you mean?
We're getting closer to slaying Kirinmaru,
which is what the Tree of Ages
wants us to do.
As long as I can make money,
I'm fine with it.
Instead of Kirinmaru, I want to find
the Dream Butterfly first.
Oh, that's right.
Lady Towa, you were looking
for the Dream Butterfly?
This is also a rumor I heard
from my pirate friends,
but Kirinmaru and the Dream Butterfly
are connected somehow.
Really?
Well, it's only a rumor.
So where is Kirinmaru?
I actually still don't know.
But if you keep defeating his underlings,
I think he will come out on his own.
I see. Then what are we waiting for?
Yeah! Big bounty, here I come!
Setsuna.
All right.
He should be east, near the river.
I heard that's where Totetsu was last.
Hurry up, Takechiyo.
I've never had to carry
so many people before.
Riku, why do you know about Kirinmaru?
Well, it seems like
he has something I want.
A Rainbow Pearl?
Something much more valuable.
What? What kind of treasure is it?
Let's just say it'll be
more fun if it's a surprise.
What's going on?
A virtuous monk
lives in that temple there.
Has Totetsu decided to show himself?
Is he here to eat the monk?
Hurry, Takechiyo.
Hup.
I'm going to eat you! Here I go!
Geez, you really don't look
tasty at all. But I'm going to eat you!
Someone help!
How long do I have to do this for?
I don't even want to
eat this gross-looking monk.
Stop it, Totetsu!
Let that monk go!
You finally showed up,
you poisonous half-demons.
You must be really dumb.
What?
Why do I have to let go of this monk?
Um, because he's a
hostage? And if you don't let him go
We will cut everything without mercy.
But the monk
If he gets dragged in,
luck was simply not on his side.
What?!
Come and get me then.
-Steel yourself.
-Setsuna, that monk
H-Help me!
What?
H-Help me!
What?
Moroha!
What's going on?
Get back here!
Takechiyo, don't
just stand there! Let's go!
You're working me too hard!
Towa, Setsuna, jump on.
Okay, hang on tight!
Was I saved?
Catch me if you can!
Come back here!
Takechiyo!
Th-They disappeared.
What's going on?
They've entered the field.
What's that?
I don't even know
how this is going to turn out.
The Rainbow Pearl
will lead the way, I suppose.
I thought we were in a
ravine, but it's pretty wide.
Where's Totetsu?
And Moroha, too.
Let's try going there first.
Get back here!
You're being a sore loser, Totetsu!
Crimson Dragon Wave!
Was that an illusion that I just cut?
Setsuna! Towa!
Something's wrong.
We don't seem to be getting any closer.
And Moroha and
Totetsu are nowhere to be found.
Moroha!
Moroha!
Moroha!
Let's go a little further.
How deep does this ravine go?
Hey, it can't be this deep, right?
Through the gate of
opening, trapped in the gate of surprise.
And now, the two
are at the gate of rest
This is strange.
Yeah. We're not getting
closer at all. Should we head back?
Did we walk this far?
We may have been
captured in some kind of spell.
A spell?
It's not just Totetsu we're after.
Konton. He was
someone who used strange spells.
Towa, cut me with your katana.
What?
I said, cut me.
Why would I do that? There's no way I can.
I see.
Setsuna?
I thought I would wake
up if this was an illusion spell,
but I guess things aren't so simple.
-Why did you do that?!
-You're too soft, Towa.
It's not necessarily your
fault that you lack training,
but earlier, when we were fighting
Totetsu, he read your facial expression
and figured out that
Moroha was behind him.
-But
-Do not underestimate this era.
So, what next? If this is not
an illusion, then what is this spell?
Setsuna, wait here, okay?
What is it? Are we splitting up?
I'm going to use you
as a guide. Don't move.
How's that?
What the heck is going on?
But
Damn it.
This tree
But this tree was
supposed to be behind me.
Setsuna? Setsuna?
From the gate of
surprise, to the gate of death.
Wait, okay, calm down.
I smell Setsuna's blood.
Setsuna!
Setsuna!
Setsuna!
-Behind me?
-Setsuna!
Why are you behind
me? I haven't moved at all.
Konton's spell twists the space around
us and it's making us go in circles.
-She disappeared.
-It's a Möbius strip.
-A what?
-If we can't physically escape this trap,
we just have to sever the circle itself.
If you want me to cut
something, I can, but where?
I don't know if we can see it, but is
there a nexus of the spell somewhere?
We can if it's a rift of demon energy.
What does that mean?
I heard that our clan can sniff out
where rifts of demon energies clash.
And we can cut through that.
Sniff out?
I'll try it.
-This smell.
-Konton!
-He's close.
-Yeah.
What?
How dare you.
Disgusting.
NEXT EPISODE PREVIEW
We found you, Konton, prepare yourself!
But where did Totetsu go?
Is he planning to run to the seas?
He must be running for
help from his higher-up, Kirinmaru.
Higher-up? Someone above his rank.
Then that'd be the boss, wouldn't it?
How many mon coins do you
think that Kirinmaru boss is worth?
Wait, who is that?
Next time on Yashahime: Princess
Half-Demon: "Sesshomaru and Kirinmaru".
What? That person is Sesshomaru?
