Gun-dou Musashi (2006–…): Season 1, Episode 24 - Golden Castle - full transcript

Presented by Strelizia subs

The seventh month of 1600 AD, or Keicho 5.

Charging Tokugawa Ieyasu with thirteen articles of impeachment,

Ishida Mitsunari sent messengers to various daimyo in the name of the Toyotomi clan,

telling them to raise armies.

At the same time, beings seeking to end the period of turbulence

and build a kingdom to last a thousand years

were about to awaken from a thousand-year sleep.

And then...

On the fifteenth day of the ninth month, at Sekigahara,

the Eastern Army of Tokugawa Ieyasu clashed with



the Western Army of the Toyotomi clan and Ishida Mitsunari.

As a result of the performance of Kobayakawa Hideaki's troops,

the Western Army of the Toyotomi clan and Ishida Mitsunari achieved a sweeping victory,

bringing what should have been three hundred years of peace to the world.

You should all be quite familiar with this story...

THE GOLDEN CASTLE

Yume, what is that person
thinking about now?

Do you think we have
been forgotten already?

Yume, do your dreams tell you anything?

I can't see anything if the
person's heart is closed.

We'll be together again, some day.

If that person's plans are fulfilled, perhaps.

Can we help somehow?

Not now...



but we may be able to if
we stay by Musashi's side.

Who's there?

Goemon Ishikawa, finally back!

Goemon Ishikawa?

Hideyoshi supposedly killed
him by boiling him alive.

If I remember correctly,
you are his spiritual heir.

Yume, do you know this man?

I don't know you either!

I saw him in a dream
when I was a prisoner.

Are you an idiot perhaps?
You don't dream about strangers!

Two seconds, let me think.

She doesn't look like an idiot.

A little woozy, maybe?

I get it!

What?

You're enamored by my charm and
unmistakable class, you want to seduce me!

Really?
You like him?

No! Not you too, sister!

Don't make that face, I get your game!

I get you, but you're too much of a child for me!

That would be illegal!

On the other hand, there's no
problem with the other girl...

Clearly.

What a strange man.

Yes.

I understand, but don't fight over me.

Yes.

Goemon Ishikawa, if I'm not mistaken.

What did you come to steal today?

I recognize him...

I'd rather forget...

I came to steal the hearts of young ladies.

You really are a bizarre fellow.

They're making fun of me!

So? What are you doing
here, Rokuemon Ishikawa?

You?
Also...

I'm Goemon!
Not Rokuemon!

Are you looking for another spanking?

Happyakurokujuhachi-emon Ishikawa!

Home run!

I'm glad we found a boat so quickly.

Five-emon Ishikawa said he rented it off a fisherman, but I think he stole it.

Doesn't that make us marauders?

Probably.

Marauders?
That has a nice ring to it.

Yes!

Goemon, let's forget about the boat.

Instead, tell me why
you wanted to follow us.

Out of pure goodness.

When I see people in trouble, I feel obligated to help them.

I'm not going to take revenge for the last time.

The last time...

I will not give this treasure to anyone!

It is a precious gift from Mr. Hideyoshi!

You will not have it!

And who are you?

Goemon Ishikawa!

How classy!

Goemon Ishikawa was boiled
alive in a cauldron!

So who are you?

A ninja. I'm his spiritual heir.
Rumors are circulating about you.

Loser.

Last time...

Don't get me wrong!
I am not seeking revenge!

In truth, Sado Island is
reputed for its gold mines.

Besides, you are thieves.

- A thief, me?
- We are partners!

I was hoping to find treasure
by accompanying you.

And we make it disappear, I guess.

Yes.

Yes.

Yes.

How did they find out?

But that has nothing to do with it!

I just want to cooperate, I'm serious!

Something is heading toward us!

It's going to hit us!

Rasetsu?

Brace yourselves!

It went under!

It's gigantic!
Yume, do you know what it is?

A celestial guardian, right?

Why would a celestial guardian be here?

There are only crumbs left.

Musashi has made a lot of progress.

Are you there, Dabi-Dabi?

Here!

Hello?
Is Rasetsu broken?

It's in pieces.

Did Musashi do that to him?

He has become strong.

Isn't it hard for you to see
your creation destroyed?

Of course it is!

But I don't hold it against Musashi.

What a magnanimous soul!
That's wonderful!

I would be mad with rage if I was you!

Dabi-Dabi, you are admirable!

Flattery doesn't work.

Damn it.

Do you have anything to ask?

- You could tell?
- What do you want?

Why are you so embarrassed?

Why...

Do you want me to build something?

I'm ashamed.
I'm so ashamed!

Is this Sado Island?
Where are Musashi and the others?

Ruko, go find my friends.

The sixth artifact is in
the gold mine in Sado.

The castle is made of solid
gold, inside a ravine.

There will be an obstacle.

A celestial guardian will appear to attack
anyone who tries to take the artifact.

Kaguya, Yume!
Ronin, Sasuke!

Ruko!

Ruko...

Princess Yume is safe.

Musashi, too.

Not so fast! Are you going
to abandon me or what?

We have to find the others.

Tell me, Ronin, this
bird is Ruko, isn't it?

He spoke to me.

Me too.
He told me to go to the east.

Go find Danjo and Goemon, Ruko.

Danjo is there!

I found the golden castle!

But how do I get down there?

I'll think about it quietly
while waiting for the others.

Ruko.

The famous Musashi chooses his targets well. What a beautiful castle!

Goemon Ishikawa, the
greatest thief in the country.

He's doing well...
Goemon, do you want to outdo us?

If that's a problem for you, come after me!

Here we are at last,
Master Ronin and Desperado!

Fantastic! We are right in
Zipang, the land of gold!

Yes, and by the way,
Goemon went ahead of us.

I'm going to throw a rope from the castle!

That's the genius ninja
Sasuke Sarutobi for you!

I'm going to throw the rope!

This castle has no entrances.

We'll just have to force our way through.

Yume, do your usual!

I never resort to violence.

That's my sister's role.

I also refuse!

Melt the gold with your flammable bullet.

I don't plan on holding back.

Violent roles are for me!

Flammable bullet!

What are these sculptures?

Musashi, these sculptures are alive.

I feel an energy, even if it's faint.

What do you mean?

Yume, what does that mean?

They're coming.

What, who?

Golden ayakashi?

Why are ayakashi protecting the castle?

I don't know, but I think we'll have to kill them to advance.

Yes.

We will not let you pass.

Urashima has enchanted
us to defend this place.

That is all very nice, but I don't care.

I have no choice but to
put you down and move on.

Ayakashi...

we have Urashima's permission.

We mean you no harm.
Let us pass.

Exactly!

That doesn't matter to us.

We have no choice but to eliminate you here.

I expected that.

But we need the artifact!

Let us pass!

Wait, we're not ready!

Sister!

I have nothing against you
but you must let us pass!

We have a mission!

Step aside and let us pass!

You're always so brutal!

And why can that dagger damage gold?

This dagger is a legacy from our mother.

It's Moonflower, the Demon Assassin.

Musashi, move aside!

Yume, are they dead?

No, not yet.

Are they melted and still alive?

Here we go again!

This one has the strongest presence.

It doesn't make any difference.

Let's finish this quickly,
get the artifact and go home.

Master Ronin, I feel something coming.

Be careful.

If a guardian comes, it means we are getting closer to the treasure.

- Yes.
- Who is actually coming?

If it's a ghost I can't do anything about it.

I don't know, but I feel a great energy.

Oh no, it had to be a ghost!

Show time!

A little exercise will do us good.

Wait here, I'll come back to help you later!

Later? We're in danger
of dying right now!

It looks like we can at least breathe.

This is disgusting!
Come help us now!

I don't feel aggression in this ayakashi!

Wait for me!

We are counting on you!

Fortune smiles on me!

It's wonderful, I'm rich!

Goemon, it's a trap!

Sarutobi...

Did you say something?

I said it was a trap.

Don't come near me!

You're not my type!

You make a cute couple, though!

Are you kidding?

I'll never marry a guy like him!

You're doing better than me!

It wasn't my fault.

Let's start again, fat boy!

Flammable bullet!

The flammable bullet is freezing!

My most powerful bullet is freezing?

Death to those who want
to steal the artifact!

I can't die here!

Kaguya!

Ruko!

Yume!

- Are you all right?
- Yes, help my sister.

You got it!

Master Takuan, lend me your strength!

This bullet is a gamble!

Extra-special Takuan bullet!

Go ahead!

Did I get him?

Musashi, you're only freezing my sister further!

Yes, it's no use against an ice monster!

Sister!

Sister, awaken your strength!

The one you once had!

What?

Sister!

Did you remember your Moon sorceress powers?

What is happening?

Are you Urashima?

I am the sorceress of the Moon, Kaguya!

I command the forces of the earth!

Kaguya, don't forget we're here!

Musashi, don't move!

Kaguya is way more powerful than I thought.

Ok, I'm not moving...

but it feels dangerous!

What are we gonna do?

What? Only two episodes left?

We don't have all the artifacts yet!

It will all be fine?
No, that's not good at all!
