Golden Kamuy (2018–…): Season 2, Episode 4 - The Great Plan to Infiltrate the Asahikawa 7th Division!! - full transcript
The team is on a mission to rescue Shiraishi, who's been kidnapped by the 7th. But he's in the middle of a massive garrison, surrounded by hundreds of troops. How can they possibly sneak in...?
Don't let him get away!
Get ahead of him and cut him off!
What's all this fuss?
Look, I'm a ninja!
Try and get away from this, Escape King!
(Golden Kamuy)
(Episode Sixteen)
(The Great Plan to Infiltrate the Asahikawa 7th Division!!)
Shiraishi was captured by the 7th Division?
Was it Lt. Tsurumi?
No, I didn't see Lt. Tsurumi.
It was another unit.
According to the locals, they were
on their way back to Asahikawa.
There were too many for me to try a
head-on attempt to rescue Shiraishi.
But we'll have serious problems if he's
taken all the way to their HQ in Asahikawa.
Knowing Shiraishi, can't he
just get away on his own?
Maybe he's been killed, and they're
flaying him as we speak!
If they lock him away somewhere in their HQ,
it might take him months
to get out on his own.
Nagakura, Ienaga, wait for
Sugimoto's group to return here.
Once they arrive, head to Asahikawa.
Kiroranke and I will get Shiraishi back!
He's the only one who can enter
Abashiri Prison and contact Nopperabo.
(Jintan)
(Iwamizawa)
You've already met the person
you're fated to be with.
Who? Who is it?
What is it that you sell, merchant?
I don't sell anything.
Your friend there is a fortune-teller, huh?
Lucky guy... I want to be the gigolo
for a pretty girl like that, too.
Gigolo? I'm not a gigolo...
Inkarmat, give me money!
There's a bean candy seller here!
Three men with a little Ainu girl?
I saw them in Yuubari.
There were these three nasty-looking
men who tried to sell me a liver.
That guy with the hat was probably
some kind of terrible criminal!
I can tell these things!
(Otaru) (Sapporo) (Iwamizawa)
(Yuubari) (Ashibetsu)
Yuubari, huh?
I should've guessed.
If you take the fastest route
to Abashiri from Otaru,
you run into Asahikawa.
(Yuubari Abashiri Asahikawa)
Asahikawa is the 7th's base of operations.
I thought they'd go around it.
(Tokachi Region)
If they passed through Yuubari,
maybe they passed through the Daisetsuzan
Volcanic Group and the Hidaka Mountains,
and headed to Tokachi.
Tokap?
Tokachi.
What's tokap?
It means "boobs."
Tokap! Tokap!
Cikapasi, enough of that.
Tokap!
Stop glancing back at Inkarmat, Cikapasi!
Look!
We've been waiting for you.
I've got news. Bad news.
What is it?
Let's hurry! We need to get ahead of them!
How do we get him back?
Strike the 7th in their sleep?
Blast a few of them with a bomb
to throw the rest into chaos-
Is that how you fought at the Amur River?
Why did you abandon your
home and come to Hokkaido?
Or did the czar's men chase you here?
You and Nopperabo both.
Do you know Nopperabo's real name?
(Mikawa Village)
Give one sen to the Inari in that alleyway,
and pay your respects. Once Osen arrives
at the tea shop and has a seat,
serve her some bitter tea.
A bean candy seller!
I want some! Can I buy some?
Give me bean candy!
Thanks for your purchase.
After the bitter tea...
(Kamuy Kotan Hanging Bridge)
Kamuy Kotan?
(Kamuy Kotan)
The Kamuy Kotan is the domain of the gods.
It's always been said that
humans have no place there.
To the Ainu, this valley is a
dangerous source of many accidents.
They've always feared those accidents
as the work of an evil god.
So there's lots of interesting
stories about the Kamuy Kotan.
Stories of katanas that devour men.
Katanas that devour men?
The Ipetam.
The Ipetam is a cursed sword that flies
through the air in search of men to prey on.
Bury it in the mountains,
throw it in a deep river,
and it will come back anyway.
Bury it in a coffin with rocks, and it
will eat the rocks with a crunching sound.
But once the rocks are gone it will leave
the coffin and start to attack people,
so in the end, they threw it in the
bottomless swamp of the Kamuy Kotan.
And then it didn't come back.
I see.
Then I shall be an Ipetam. One that
climbed out of the bottomless swamp.
Cross ten at a time!
Kamuy Kotan. Hanging bridge...
What are they going to do?
You've gotta be kidding me!
Sure, we're on a bridge, but is he still
going to fight this many people with a katana?
You stupid old man!
Bridge collapse! Several men fell!
Turn back! We're going to save them!
I'm gonna die! Somebody save me!
Shiraishi!
Don't let go!
Shiraishi!
Kiro-chan!
Just wait!
Grab on!
I could get rid of these any time I wanted!
Shit!
Shiraishi, hang in there!
Almost there! Reach out!
Come on, Shiraishi!
What's wrong? Hurry!
Shiraishi!
I believe he's already
arrived at Asahikawa by now.
Even if he can escape on his own,
we can't wait for him when we don't
know how long that will take.
We don't even know if he can.
He may be the Escape King,
but that's not a prison.
Who knows what they're doing to him?
They may be flaying him right now!
You go look, Ogata.
You're with the 7th, right?
I'm considered a deserter right now.
What about you, Kiroranke?
You were with the 7th, right?
They saw my face at the Kamuy Kotan.
Well, I guess it's okay.
We've got a copy of his tattoos.
No, I want to save him.
He's a ridiculous man, but there's
still uses for Shiraishi.
But how do we save him?
Knowing that man...
(Golden Kamuy)
Nikaidou, let go!
Give me that vial!
No!
What's all this fuss, Sergeant Tsukishima?
Lt. Tsurumi!
No!
Nikaidou stole a whole vial of morphine,
and was taking extra doses of it in secret!
Don't blame me if he dies from an overdose.
Nikaidou, you know better than that.
You need to follow the doctor's orders.
Give it back.
No, Nikaidou! Bad!
Youhei's right leg burned.
Along with Edogai-kun's house.
I can't track down Sugimoto without a leg.
Nikaidou, it's not right to just give up.
No!
Nikaidou, no! No!
Lt. Tsurumi, somebody's there.
Who are you?
You want to know who I am?
I'm the one who made that
rifle you're carrying!
Lt. General Arisaka, sir!
I'm sorry to keep you waiting.
Arisaka!
The genius weapons designer.
A lieutenant general in the army.
Arisaka Narizou!
I'm sorry, sir!
How've you been, Tsurumi-kun?
I see you're doing well, sir!
Lt. General Arisaka's lost much of his
hearing after spending years making weapons.
I see.
How was Asahikawa?
Asahikawa's made a hot air
balloon unit of their own,
and they want to put
some kind of weapon on it!
Those things use hydrogen to float.
One puncture and they're done for,
so recon is the most you'll
ever get out of them!
And they're slow, too!
The age of airplanes is upon us!
(Morphine)
Is that morphine, Tsurumi-kun?
Does your head wound still bother you?
Actually, Tsurumi-kun, has your
attempt to grow poppies
that can thrive in cold
climates gotten anywhere?
I'm trying to get money so I can
expand the size of the fields.
Opium makes money!
International opinion has
turned against England,
and they're getting out of
the opium business, you see.
Lt. General Arisaka, please don't
tell people about the poppy fields.
Lt. General Arisaka came all the
way to Otaru to see Lt. Tsurumi?
There's no end to how deep
the rabbit hole goes with him.
I've brought the latest in
domestically-produced weaponry.
A Type-38 machine gun and
Type-38 infantry rifle,
developed by Nambu-kun, one of my men!
Beautiful...
The beauty of the gun
testifies to its function.
You'll sell a million!
But the more that sell,
the more people will die!
This is a cursed business I'm in!
The things you make
are beautiful, so make them!
Beauty and power are one and the same.
In search of functional beauty,
you created a powerful weapon.
And that which is beautiful
should be praised!
The 28 centimeter howitzers were gorgeous!
The fire support they provided did not
discriminate between friend and foe.
It ripped apart the bodies of young men,
and made the skies rain with gore and blood!
I ran through those rains of blood,
and it was beautiful!
Your head is messed up, Tsurumi-kun!
Correct! I'm missing my frontal lobes!
A large war will increase
demand for painkillers...
And Japan's high-quality weapons, too.
That's what the Ainu gold will be used for.
Bang! Bang! Bang!
War will bring jobs to
the people of Hokkaido.
It doesn't go bap-bap-bap!
More wars will need to keep happening.
It's a war addiction!
Get 'em! Shoot 'em all up!
Bears attack humans with overwhelming power.
But who blames the bear?
Other bears.
One of my men was attacked by
a bear, and this is what he said!
"It was a beautiful creature."
That's an interesting guy
you've got working for you!
Lt. General Arisaka!
He's very depressed right now!
I know it's asking a lot, but do
you suppose you could help him?
(Several Days Later)
You stole it again, huh?
Give it back!
I'll tell Lt. Tsurumi on you!
Give it here!
Nikaidou!
You've got a wonderful visitor!
A visitor? Who?
Come in, sir!
Who's that?
Who is it?
Who... who are you?
I'm scared!
Who the hell are you?
Get lost!
So you're Nikaidou-kun, huh?!
Who's this?
I've come to give you a present!
A present? What is it?
I hope you like it!
Your new leg!
Aw, it's just a fake leg.
Not just any fake leg, though!
I made it on short notice, but it's
got room for three rounds of buckshot.
I could've put in more
if I used rifle bullets,
but a weapon like this is only useful at
close quarters and in a surprise situation.
If you want to make sure you
stop an opponent at short range,
buckshot's the way to go!
Thank you, person I don't know!
What are you doing? This is a hospital!
Congratulations on your
wonderful new leg, Nikaidou!
(Outskirts of Asahikawa)
Who the hell is this?
His name is Suzukawa Kiyohiro.
He's a marriage fraudster.
A genius at disguise.
We met in Abashiri.
Abashiri?
You were hiding that?
I didn't say I'd share every
bit of information I had.
You didn't tell me either, old man.
Don't worry. I was intending to
meet him on the way to Abashiri.
You crafty old geezer...
What can a marriage fraudster do?
Fraud involves the use of the brain.
Don't compare me to a violent prison escapee,
who steals things from others by force.
So, what do you want me to do?
Save Shiraishi from the 7th.
We won't know where in the 7th's
Asahikawa Barracks he's being kept
unless someone gets in.
So I pretend to be one of them?
After the incident at the Kamuy Kotan,
they'll be on their guard.
You'd have to be someone important
to get them to tell you.
One of the upper brass from
the division in Tokyo?
No, the further up in the military you get,
the more you know the people around you.
A fictional officer would
be found out instantly.
A dog (inu)?
How about Inudou Shirosuke?
Inudou? The Warden of Abashiri Prison?
Do they look similar?
Nope.
The odds of anyone in the 7th knowing
the Warden of Abashiri are low.
But unless you look almost identical,
someone who knows him will
see through the disguise.
Will this work?
Inudou is stern and fastidious.
He's obsessed with following rules,
but also willing to secretly lock me
up forever out of personal hatred.
His twisted nature appears on his face.
It's true. Your personality
shows on your face.
For instance, if you see a
bear with a face like a fox,
it's one that's got a nasty temper.
Right, Asirpa-san?
No good. It's past her bedtime.
How about this, then?
So, how will you fool the 7th now that
you look like the Warden of Abashiri?
Don't be in such a hurry.
I have an idea.
I'll let you handle the rest.
Leave her be. She's nasty when she's sleepy.
Hah! She'll be a fine woman someday.
What's wrong?
I just remembered...
You're the old man who showed up at
the herring longhouse, aren't you?
Was Shiraishi working with you?
Shiraishi was working with them?
Yeah. If that's true, it probably
started a while ago.
When Shiraishi reached out to grab my hand,
I saw a clear hesitation.
Given the situation,
can't you look past that?
So you admit it, then.
There are no enemies or allies here.
All that's important is information.
He probably figured you'd
kill him if you found out.
That'd be just like him.
What will you do? Will you still save him?
And then kill him when you do?
Someone who betrays you once will
betray you again and again.
Sugimoto...
Don't kill anyone you don't have to.
Asahikawa, the military city.
(Asahikawa)
As the czar's forces tried to sweep south,
fortifying it became a critical mission.
The establishment of railway tracks
and a 7th Division garrison
made it one of the largest cities in
Hokkaido at the time, after Hakodate,
Otaru, and Sapporo.
The 7th's base is huge. Where is he?
It's not a prison, so it can't be
that hard to get on base, but...
There's no way we can check
out each individual building.
Should we make them hand
Shiraishi over to us?
The insignia number of the men
who took Shiraishi was "27."
That's one of the four infantry
regiments at Asahikawa...
The 27th Infantry Regiment.
This is their barracks.
Wait a second. The 27th?
What is it, Ogata?
Are you guys idiots?
Oh, right!
So they're in the same
regiment as Lt. Tsurumi?
It's very likely that the
27th is hiding Shiraishi.
The regiment is lead by Lt. Colonel Yodogawa,
who's under Lt. Tsurumi's control.
(Lt. Colonel Yodogawa Terunaka)
What?
The Warden of Abashiri
wants to meet me?
What does he want?
I am Inudou Shirosuke,
the Warden of Abashiri Prison.
Nice to meet you.
Inudou...
Next Time "Inside the Belly"
Get ahead of him and cut him off!
What's all this fuss?
Look, I'm a ninja!
Try and get away from this, Escape King!

It means "boobs."
Tokap! Tokap!

Tokap!
Stop glancing back at Inkarmat, Cikapasi!
Look!
We've been waiting for you.
I've got news. Bad news.
What is it?
Let's hurry! We need to get ahead of them!
How do we get him back?
Strike the 7th in their sleep?
Blast a few of them with a bomb
to throw the rest into chaos-
Is that how you fought at the Amur River?
Why did you abandon your
home and come to Hokkaido?
Or did the czar's men chase you here?
You and Nopperabo both.
Do you know Nopperabo's real name?
(Mikawa Village)
Give one sen to the Inari in that alleyway,
and pay your respects. Once Osen arrives
at the tea shop and has a seat,
serve her some bitter tea.
A bean candy seller!
I want some! Can I buy some?
Give me bean candy!
Thanks for your purchase.

I see.
How was Asahikawa?
Asahikawa's made a hot air
balloon unit of their own,
and they want to put
some kind of weapon on it!
Those things use hydrogen to float.
One puncture and they're done for,
so recon is the most you'll
ever get out of them!
And they're slow, too!
The age of airplanes is upon us!
(Morphine)
Is that morphine, Tsurumi-kun?
Does your head wound still bother you?
Actually, Tsurumi-kun, has your
attempt to grow poppies
that can thrive in cold
climates gotten anywhere?
I'm trying to get money so I can
expand the size of the fields.
Opium makes money!
International opinion has
turned against England,
and they're getting out of
the opium business, you see.
Lt. General Arisaka, please don't

Your head is messed up, Tsurumi-kun!
Correct! I'm missing my frontal lobes!
A large war will increase
demand for painkillers...
And Japan's high-quality weapons, too.
That's what the Ainu gold will be used for.
Bang! Bang! Bang!
War will bring jobs to
the people of Hokkaido.
It doesn't go bap-bap-bap!

It's a war addiction!

So you're Nikaidou-kun, huh?!
Who's this?
I've come to give you a present!
A present? What is it?
I hope you like it!
Your new leg!
Aw, it's just a fake leg.
Not just any fake leg, though!
I made it on short notice, but it's
got room for three rounds of buckshot.
I could've put in more
if I used rifle bullets,
but a weapon like this is only useful at
close quarters and in a surprise situation.
If you want to make sure you

Thank you, person I don't know!

No good. It's past her bedtime.
How about this, then?
So, how will you fool the 7th now that
you look like the Warden of Abashiri?
Don't be in such a hurry.
I have an idea.
I'll let you handle the rest.
Leave her be. She's nasty when she's sleepy.
Hah! She'll be a fine woman someday.
What's wrong?
I just remembered...
You're the old man who showed up at
the herring longhouse, aren't you?
Was Shiraishi working with you?
Shiraishi was working with them?
Yeah. If that's true, it probably
started a while ago.
When Shiraishi reached out to grab my hand,
I saw a clear hesitation.
Given the situation,
can't you look past that?
So you admit it, then.
There are no enemies or allies here.
All that's important is information.
He probably figured you'd
kill him if you found out.
That'd be just like him.
What will you do? Will you still save him?
And then kill him when you do?
Someone who betrays you once will
betray you again and again.
Sugimoto...
Don't kill anyone you don't have to.
Asahikawa, the military city.
(Asahikawa)
As the czar's forces tried to sweep south,
fortifying it became a critical mission.
The establishment of railway tracks
and a 7th Division garrison
made it one of the largest cities in
Hokkaido at the time, after Hakodate,
Otaru, and Sapporo.
The 7th's base is huge. Where is he?
It's not a prison, so it can't be
that hard to get on base, but...
There's no way we can check
out each individual building.
Should we make them hand
Shiraishi over to us?
The insignia number of the men
who took Shiraishi was "27."
That's one of the four infantry
regiments at Asahikawa...
The 27th Infantry Regiment.
This is their barracks.
Wait a second. The 27th?
What is it, Ogata?
Are you guys idiots?
Oh, right!
So they're in the same
regiment as Lt. Tsurumi?
It's very likely that the
27th is hiding Shiraishi.
The regiment is lead by Lt. Colonel Yodogawa,
who's under Lt. Tsurumi's control.
(Lt. Colonel Yodogawa Terunaka)
What?
The Warden of Abashiri
wants to meet me?
What does he want?
I am Inudou Shirosuke,
the Warden of Abashiri Prison.
Nice to meet you.
Inudou...
