Gabimaru : No. |
(0:00:44.31) |
Gabimaru : Why? Why can't I die? |
(0:01:16.05) |
Gabimaru : No, why won't I die? |
(0:01:18.84) |
Gabimaru : I have no attachment to life. |
(0:01:23.81) |
Gabimaru : I've killed countless people until now. |
(0:01:29.90) |
Gabimaru : I don't expect to live a long life. |
(0:01:33.78) |
Sagiri Yamada Asaemon : Your name is Gabimaru. |
(0:03:12.88) |
Sagiri Yamada Asaemon : Born a shinobi in the village of Iwagakure, |
(0:03:15.13) |
Sagiri Yamada Asaemon : you studied only assassination techniques since you were a child. |
(0:03:17.92) |
Sagiri Yamada Asaemon : Many lose their lives during training, but in exchange, |
(0:03:22.13) |
Sagiri Yamada Asaemon : those who survive develop superhuman bodies. |
(0:03:24.93) |
Sagiri Yamada Asaemon : I see. |
(0:03:29.06) |
Sagiri Yamada Asaemon : For someone from Iwagakure, |
(0:03:30.94) |
Sagiri Yamada Asaemon : breaking a blade with your own flesh is a simple task. |
(0:03:32.85) |
Gabimaru : Well, yeah. |
(0:03:36.52) |
Gabimaru : Someone that shitty with a sword can't hurt me. |
(0:03:38.36) |
Gabimaru : I didn't even have to use any ninjutsu. |
(0:03:40.40) |
Sagiri Yamada Asaemon : You can use ninjutsu? |
(0:03:42.95) |
Sagiri Yamada Asaemon : Could you show me some? |
(0:03:45.53) |
Gabimaru : Why? |
(0:03:47.66) |
Sagiri Yamada Asaemon : As a matter of personal interest. |
(0:03:48.74) |
Gabimaru : In that case, no. |
(0:03:50.20) |
Gabimaru : Uh, sorry. |
(0:04:21.90) |
Gabimaru : I'm not trying to resist. |
(0:04:47.64) |
Gabimaru : If anything, I wish you'd kill me. |
(0:04:52.18) |
Sagiri Yamada Asaemon : I see. |
(0:04:54.18) |
Gabimaru : If you're gonna look away, then why not give me clothes? |
(0:04:56.06) |
Gabimaru : C'mon, c'mon. |
(0:04:58.98) |
Sagiri Yamada Asaemon : My job is to record events, and your nudity is no obstacle. |
(0:05:01.28) |
Sagiri Yamada Asaemon : Please continue. |
(0:05:06.20) |
Gabimaru : My background's not very interesting, you know. |
(0:05:08.37) |
Sagiri Yamada Asaemon : It's my job. |
(0:05:11.62) |
Gabimaru : My parents? I dunno. |
(0:05:16.79) |
Gabimaru : I was only told they were killed by the village chief when I was a baby. |
(0:05:19.84) |
Gabimaru : I don't know why. |
(0:05:23.51) |
Gabimaru : I don't have any feelings about it. |
(0:05:25.47) |
Gabimaru : Dreams? Don't have any. |
(0:05:28.47) |
Gabimaru : Shinobi don't have any great purpose. |
(0:05:31.64) |
Gabimaru : They just kill as they're told. |
(0:05:34.85) |
Gabimaru : Why was I caught? |
(0:05:39.36) |
Gabimaru : Well, uh... |
(0:05:41.11) |
Gabimaru : I tried to leave the village. |
(0:05:44.03) |
Gabimaru : I was captured on a job when my cohorts betrayed me. |
(0:05:45.94) |
Gabimaru : The village chief probably put them up to it. |
(0:05:49.49) |
Gabimaru : The village doesn't allow anyone to leave. |
(0:05:52.41) |
Gabimaru : It's not like they had a choice. |
(0:05:54.95) |
Sagiri Yamada Asaemon : Why did you try to leave the village in the first place? |
(0:05:57.16) |
Gabimaru : Oh, uh... |
(0:06:40.46) |
Sagiri Yamada Asaemon : It's strange. |
(0:06:51.39) |
Gabimaru : My shinobi's body? |
(0:06:53.76) |
Sagiri Yamada Asaemon : No. |
(0:06:55.60) |
Sagiri Yamada Asaemon : Despite saying you want to be killed, it seems to me as though you were resisting. |
(0:06:57.02) |
Sagiri Yamada Asaemon : Why would someone with no will to live... |
(0:07:02.60) |
Sagiri Yamada Asaemon : Never mind. |
(0:07:05.48) |
Sagiri Yamada Asaemon : Why did you try to leave the village? |
(0:07:06.44) |
Sagiri Yamada Asaemon : Will you answer the question I asked you yesterday? |
(0:07:10.78) |
Sagiri Yamada Asaemon : I'm working. |
(0:07:16.83) |
Sagiri Yamada Asaemon : I'm working. |
(0:07:19.29) |
Gabimaru : Whatever. |
(0:07:20.62) |
Sagiri Yamada Asaemon : I'm work... |
(0:07:21.37) |
Gabimaru : It wasn't for an interesting reason. |
(0:07:22.58) |
Gabimaru : I was the best in Iwagakure. |
(0:07:25.34) |
Gabimaru : I had the chief's recognition, and married his daughter. |
(0:07:29.72) |
Gabimaru : But his daughter was a real idiot. |
(0:07:35.35) |
Gabimaru : I don't know how a shinobi's, |
(0:07:39.60) |
Gabimaru : much less the chief's daughter, ends up like that. |
(0:07:41.23) |
Gabimaru : She was a carefree, naïve, and sheltered girl. |
(0:07:46.15) |
Gabimaru : I was totally bewildered, and I got fed up with her. |
(0:08:05.67) |
Gabimaru : I didn't want to lose my edge. |
(0:08:08.88) |
Gabimaru : I knew I'd been set up. |
(0:08:25.94) |
Gabimaru : But I also knew the people of Iwagakure would follow me everywhere, even if I escaped. |
(0:08:28.73) |
Gabimaru : It was over the moment I was caught in their trap. |
(0:08:33.61) |
Gabimaru : It was stupid of me to defy the chief in the first place, so I gave up. |
(0:08:36.20) |
Gabimaru : Well? Not a very interesting reason, is it? |
(0:08:43.71) |
Sagiri Yamada Asaemon : Isn't he Gabimaru, former shinobi of Iwagakure? |
(0:09:02.14) |
Sagiri Yamada Asaemon : The Elixir... |
(0:09:34.76) |
Sagiri Yamada Asaemon : Are you sure about that? |
(0:09:42.51) |
Sagiri Yamada Asaemon : Why would a hollow man fight back so hard that he killed 20 people? |
(0:09:45.10) |
Sagiri Yamada Asaemon : Despite saying you want to be killed, it seems to me as though you were resisting. |
(0:09:54.74) |
Gabimaru : She's right. What am I doing? |
(0:10:01.33) |
Gabimaru : Why don't I just die? |
(0:10:05.70) |
Gabimaru : I have no attachment to life. |
(0:10:08.12) |
Gabimaru : Tomorrow. I'll end it all tomorrow. |
(0:10:11.04) |
Gabimaru : With tomorrow's execution... |
(0:10:15.26) |
Gabimaru : Why won't I die? |
(0:10:43.95) |
Gabimaru : Why am I still enduring this? |
(0:10:46.58) |
Gabimaru : I should have no lingering attachments. |
(0:10:49.46) |
Gabimaru : I should be empty. |
(0:10:51.88) |
Sagiri Yamada Asaemon : Sir, the arrangements have been made. |
(0:11:03.89) |
Sagiri Yamada Asaemon : I'm ready to start at any time. |
(0:11:07.27) |
Gabimaru : What kind of execution is it this time? |
(0:11:16.23) |
Gabimaru : Honestly, I'm getting tired of this. |
(0:11:18.78) |
Gabimaru : When are you going to... |
(0:11:21.28) |
Gabimaru : What is this? |
(0:11:36.96) |
Gabimaru : You're an Asaemon... and a woman? |
(0:12:21.72) |
Sagiri Yamada Asaemon : Yes, a woman. |
(0:12:24.84) |
Sagiri Yamada Asaemon : Runaway shinobi Gabimaru from Isshu, |
(0:12:27.35) |
Sagiri Yamada Asaemon : the shogunate has charged me with your execution. |
(0:12:29.60) |
Sagiri Yamada Asaemon : You said you wanted someone to kill you. |
(0:12:33.10) |
Sagiri Yamada Asaemon : I shall grant you your wish. |
(0:12:36.61) |
Gabimaru : She's the real deal. |
(0:12:46.53) |
Sagiri Yamada Asaemon : At once. |
(0:12:55.75) |
Sagiri Yamada Asaemon : Why did you evade my blow? |
(0:13:05.30) |
Sagiri Yamada Asaemon : You'd have died if you hadn't moved. |
(0:13:07.76) |
Gabimaru : Could I have died? |
(0:13:11.85) |
Gabimaru : Do I not want to die? |
(0:13:18.15) |
Sagiri Yamada Asaemon : Through my job, I've been present during the final moments of many. |
(0:13:25.03) |
Sagiri Yamada Asaemon : I've learned to identify how people truly feel when they're dying. |
(0:13:29.99) |
Sagiri Yamada Asaemon : A person's true nature is reflected in the blade. |
(0:13:33.70) |
Sagiri Yamada Asaemon : Some put up a brave act until just before their death. |
(0:13:37.79) |
Sagiri Yamada Asaemon : Some desperately beg for mercy. |
(0:13:41.09) |
Sagiri Yamada Asaemon : And some lie to themselves and claim to have accepted death. |
(0:13:44.71) |
Gabimaru : What? |
(0:13:50.01) |
Sagiri Yamada Asaemon : Gabimaru the Hollow. |
(0:13:51.76) |
Sagiri Yamada Asaemon : There's certainly a great emptiness inside you. |
(0:13:53.60) |
Sagiri Yamada Asaemon : I'm certain of it after listening to you describe your history. |
(0:13:57.31) |
Sagiri Yamada Asaemon : But you lied about one thing. |
(0:14:01.23) |
Sagiri Yamada Asaemon : You do
have an attachment to life. |
(0:14:05.15) |
Sagiri Yamada Asaemon : No, you love your wife. |
(0:14:07.36) |
Sagiri Yamada Asaemon : To you, is she not your reason to live? |
(0:14:13.62) |
Sagiri Yamada Asaemon : I'm right. |
(0:14:42.06) |
Sagiri Yamada Asaemon : Why do you lie to yourself? |
(0:14:44.27) |
Sagiri Yamada Asaemon : You couldn't die during your executions because of your feelings for her. |
(0:14:46.69) |
Sagiri Yamada Asaemon : Are you not just telling yourself that you have no attachment to life? |
(0:14:51.20) |
Gabimaru : Shut up! |
(0:14:57.33) |
Gabimaru : I have no attachments! |
(0:14:59.83) |
Gabimaru : You know nothing about the world I've lived in! |
(0:15:01.67) |
Gabimaru : I am hollow! |
(0:15:06.71) |
Gabimaru : No, the nickname suits me. |
(0:15:13.26) |
Gabimaru : I've grown too accustomed to terrible, ugly things. |
(0:15:17.02) |
Gabimaru : I can only show you the same. |
(0:15:20.10) |
Gabimaru : But... |
(0:16:11.49) |
Gabimaru : What are you... |
(0:16:22.58) |
Gabimaru : I am Gabimaru the Hollow! |
(0:16:31.84) |
Gabimaru : I'm a heartless monster! |
(0:16:36.26) |
Gabimaru : Try as I might, I can never be human! |
(0:16:40.22) |
Gabimaru : I'll quit making a living by killing people. |
(0:16:55.16) |
Gabimaru : The two of us will live a quiet life. |
(0:16:57.95) |
Gabimaru : It's what's best for his daughter. The chief will understand. |
(0:17:01.79) |
Gabimaru : I won't kill anyone. |
(0:17:07.08) |
Gabimaru : We'll live in a quiet place. |
(0:17:09.92) |
Gabimaru : And live an ordinary life. |
(0:17:12.80) |
Gabimaru : Like normal people. |
(0:17:19.05) |
Gabimaru : It's impossible! |
(0:17:21.81) |
Sagiri Yamada Asaemon : It's possible! |
(0:17:24.48) |
Gabimaru : What? |
(0:17:28.73) |
Sagiri Yamada Asaemon : This is an official pardon. |
(0:17:31.69) |
Sagiri Yamada Asaemon : Not only does it dismiss all charges, |
(0:17:34.44) |
Sagiri Yamada Asaemon : but it even grants you the shogun's protection. |
(0:17:37.03) |
Sagiri Yamada Asaemon : With this, neither the magistrate's office nor the village's shinobi could harm you. |
(0:17:40.99) |
Gabimaru : What are you talking about? |
(0:17:47.29) |
Sagiri Yamada Asaemon : But it comes with a condition. |
(0:17:48.63) |
Sagiri Yamada Asaemon : You will go to the Underworld. |
(0:17:51.92) |
Gabimaru : What? |
(0:17:53.92) |
Gabimaru : The Underworld? You mean the Other Side? |
(0:17:55.63) |
Sagiri Yamada Asaemon : Yes. |
(0:17:58.64) |
Gabimaru : Are you telling me to die? |
(0:17:59.39) |
Sagiri Yamada Asaemon : No. |
(0:18:01.35) |
Sagiri Yamada Asaemon : There is a land brimming with fertility and joy, where there is no pain: |
(0:18:03.31) |
Sagiri Yamada Asaemon : Shinsenkyo. |
(0:18:07.64) |
Sagiri Yamada Asaemon : Believed in since ancient times, people have |
(0:18:09.27) |
Sagiri Yamada Asaemon : called it Paradise, the Other Side, and Heaven. |
(0:18:12.32) |
Sagiri Yamada Asaemon : It was said to be far to the southwest, beyond the Ryukyu Kingdom. |
(0:18:16.74) |
Sagiri Yamada Asaemon : And it's finally been found. |
(0:18:22.28) |
Sagiri Yamada Asaemon : Butterflies and flowers dance. |
(0:18:27.79) |
Sagiri Yamada Asaemon : Beautiful voices can be heard singing. |
(0:18:29.62) |
Sagiri Yamada Asaemon : It is as the legends describe. |
(0:18:33.29) |
Sagiri Yamada Asaemon : It is said that the immortality-granting Elixir of Life can be found in Shinsenkyo. |
(0:18:37.30) |
Sagiri Yamada Asaemon : The shogunate sent a search party there to acquire the Elixir. |
(0:18:42.47) |
Sagiri Yamada Asaemon : However... |
(0:18:47.81) |
Sagiri Yamada Asaemon : Five more expeditions were sent, but no one returned... |
(0:19:16.63) |
Sagiri Yamada Asaemon : except for the things they became. |
(0:19:25.89) |
Gabimaru : W-Wait a minute. |
(0:19:29.77) |
Gabimaru : What kind of story is that? |
(0:19:31.81) |
Gabimaru : It sounds like a fairy tale. |
(0:19:33.35) |
Sagiri Yamada Asaemon : Yes. |
(0:19:34.90) |
Sagiri Yamada Asaemon : Everyone believed it was merely a fairy tale |
(0:19:36.32) |
Sagiri Yamada Asaemon : until they saw that
. |
(0:19:39.28) |
Sagiri Yamada Asaemon : I came here looking for potential candidates. |
(0:20:06.85) |
Sagiri Yamada Asaemon : Someone with skill and a fierce desire to live. |
(0:20:11.06) |
Sagiri Yamada Asaemon : On my way here, I heard your wife is still in Iwagakure. |
(0:20:16.27) |
Sagiri Yamada Asaemon : Since the day you were captured, |
(0:20:23.11) |
Sagiri Yamada Asaemon : she closed herself off and hasn't spoken to anyone. |
(0:20:25.16) |
Sagiri Yamada Asaemon : She must believe you'll return. |
(0:20:29.49) |
Sagiri Yamada Asaemon : I'll ask you again. |
(0:20:35.08) |
Sagiri Yamada Asaemon : Do you have any attachment to life? |
(0:20:36.96) |
Sagiri Yamada Asaemon : Traveling to a mysterious island with heinous criminals |
(0:20:39.34) |
Sagiri Yamada Asaemon : condemned to death and competing with them for a pardon |
(0:20:43.30) |
Sagiri Yamada Asaemon : is the only way for you to be reunited with her. |
(0:20:45.89) |
Sagiri Yamada Asaemon : Will you risk that |
(0:20:50.72) |
Sagiri Yamada Asaemon : for a life with her, Gabimaru the Hollow? |
(0:20:52.23) |
Sagiri Yamada Asaemon : The shogunate has commanded it. |
(0:21:06.20) |
Gabimaru : Heartless, hollow... |
(0:21:19.54) |
Gabimaru : You said you wanted to see ninjutsu. |
(0:21:35.44) |
Gabimaru : If this'll do, then watch this. |
(0:21:48.03) |
Gabimaru : Ninpo: Ascetic Blaze. |
(0:21:51.62) |
Sagiri Yamada Asaemon : Impressive. |
(0:22:08.22) |
Gabimaru : I'll do it. I'll find this Elixir of Life. |
(0:22:14.93) |
Gabimaru : So, what should I do now? |
(0:22:22.15) |
Sagiri Yamada Asaemon : Come with me. First, we'll go to Edo— |
(0:22:25.19) |
Gabimaru : What? |
(0:22:28.53) |
Gabimaru : Why don't we go directly to the island? |
(0:22:29.78) |
Gabimaru : Edo's a detour. What a pain. |
(0:22:32.20) |
Sagiri Yamada Asaemon : He's complaining more now that he's out of his funk. |
(0:22:34.41) |
Sagiri Yamada Asaemon : If you don't want to go, then we can call off the deal. |
(0:22:37.79) |
Gabimaru : I'll do it, I'll do it. |
(0:22:39.42) |
Gabimaru : I'll do anything now. |
(0:22:41.79) |
Gabimaru : It doesn't matter if I have to face condemned criminals or mysterious islands. |
(0:22:44.17) |
Gabimaru : I'll make it back alive. |
(0:22:48.38) |
Gabimaru : For you. |
(0:22:52.68) |
