Shike Nyuudou
Dororo, how's the
water? Feeling good?
Tch, big brother, you really are dense!
If you can't feel how
intensely hot it is.
Even my ability to sense
that was taken by the demons.
Hmm.
Well, that makes it easy.
You never have
to feel hot or cold.
You have it easy.
It's hardly easy.
Since I can't feel hot
or cold like anyone else,
I may suddenly keel over
from heatstroke and die,
or freeze to death in the cold.
Oh, is that what it's like?
Ah! it's a big char!
Dororo.
What?
Be careful.
They say there are char so
large they can eat a man.
If it should eat you before
you can eat it,
it wouldn't even make
for a funny story.
Heh! Like the great Dororo'd let
himself be eaten by some fish!
Ouch! Help, big brother, I'm
being eaten by a fish!
That's absurd!
Hurry! I'm going to be eaten!
Dororo, calm down!
This is a trap
for catching fish.
You got caught in it.
Get it off me, big brother!
- Ow! Ow! Ow! Ow! Ow!
- Stop thrashing about.
If you struggle,
it'll just dig in more.
- Ah! Ow! Ow! Ow! Ow!
- Didn't I tell you to stop thrashing?
Anyway, I shall
have to cut this thing off.
That's not working.
It's made out of steel.
Even my sword
can't cut through it.
Well, what shall we do then?!
With a metal file, we
could cut through it, but...
Okay, I'll go see what I can borrow
from one of the nearby houses.
You wear this and
wait until then. Got it?
Tch, just how long
must I wait?
I don't know, but staying here
talking won't fix the problem.
Dororo, don't catch a cold.
There's not even a single
hovel around here.
What is it about this mountain?
Dororo will catch cold.
It's an old temple...
Chief priest! Is
there anyone here?
This doesn't belong
in an old temple.
It's a splendid Buddha statue.
Who might you be?
Have you come to pray
at this mountain temple?
No, I'm a traveller.
Oh, a traveller, you say?
Then is there something
I can do for you?
Well, my companion has his
hand stuck in a fish trap in the valley.
I was hoping to
borrow a metal file.
Odd. I sense a
slight demonic aura.
Oh, I must apologise.
That trap is one of mine.
I tend this temple. My
name is Shike Nyuudou.
A Buddhist monk setting traps?
We're deep in the
mountains, as you can tell.
Even a monk needs
something to live on.
There are times when
taking a life is unavoidable.
Namu Amida Butsu.
Namu Amida Butsu.
And? What sort of person
is this companion of yours?
He is a child. A boy of five.
Chief Priest, this temple seems
to be infested with mice and moles.
Well, we'd best be going
before your friend wrinkles like a prune.
Let's hurry along.
Big brother, hurry back. I feel so cold
I think my heart's going to stop.
Oh, the air
suddenly turned chill.
Big brother!
Big brother!
Hurry back.
This is a rather
roundabout route.
The path I took to the
temple was much more direct.
Oh, but this is a shortcut.
See, you can already
see the river in the valley.
You're not just
buying time, are you?
What did you say?
Excuse me!
Dororo!
He's gone!
Dororo!
Dororo!
Dororo! Where are you?!
Maybe he's slipped free and
wandered off somewhere?
No, this doesn't seem
like he got his hand free.
I'd say it's more likely he was freed
from the trap and taken somewhere.
Where have you hidden Dororo?
Wh-What? What are
you saying I've done?
Why not show your
true form now?
You took the long way around
so another could attack Dororo.
I can tell.
P-Preposterous! I-I'd never...
Try as you may, you can't
hide the demonic smell on you.
You reek of it.
Now, I see the form of the
demon I've been looking for!
A fishy stench!
There are raised
trails in the earth here.
Almost like a mole would leave.
I knew it!
Get out here, priest!
Dororo!
Who are you?
I'm a woodcutter. A woodcutter
from the nearby village.
I heard a sound from the abandoned
temple, so I wondered who it was.
Abandoned temple?
There's no chief priest here?
No, the place's been
vacant for a good decade.
It's falling apart as a result.
Oh, you're a traveller.
Do you not know the
tale about this temple?
I don't! Is there
some story about it?
Well, just come
this way a moment.
This temple, since
it's atop a mountain,
it has a good view
on three sides.
It's the perfect
site for a fortress.
One day, the local general
decided to build a fortress here.
He brought a huge
retinue here to the temple.
He then ordered the priest
to tear down the temple.
The priest didn't just
nod in agreement.
That's because, if this temple
were replaced with a fortress,
our three villages would
be caught up in the war.
The priest wouldn't comply,
so the enraged general had
him tied up and buried alive.
The chief priest was so
compassionate even the mice
and weasels adored him.
He sacrificed himself
to save our three villages.
He was a great priest.
When the general tried
to demolish the temple,
a great swarm of field mice,
frogs, otters and weasels
suddenly appeared.
They swarmed the samurai.
Since then, everyone finds the temple
too frightening to go anywhere near.
Look, the chief priest was buried
beneath this memorial tower.
It has a demonic aura.
You've gone mad, priest.
Ah! Hey, now! What do
you think you're doing?!
- You'll be cursed! Cursed!
- I don't care.
This thing is no longer needed.
Oh! It's terrifying! Terrifying!
I will haunt you...
I have come to harm those who
violate the sanctity of this mountain!
You're the priest!
Priest, I am Hyakkimaru! I
can hear the voices of devils!
I can slay them as well!
Now, return the boy
who was with me!
What impudence.
I see you for what you are.
You merged with the spirits
of animals underground
and were ultimately
reborn as a demon!
I'll not let them
build a fortress here!
Yes, I know.
But you are a demon.
As proof, you're trying
to eat the boy I travel with!
I will have to slay you.
Behold, demon!
This is the excellent sword
I inherited from my father.
Know that there is no
escape for you now.
Just you wait. I'll find
where you are and finish you.
Hey, hey, hey! If you're going
to eat me, then do it now!
I'm ready for what's coming.
What's wrong? Why
are you holding back?
Eat up! Eat up!
I'll not eat you so readily.
What?
Are you a devil?
I am the chief
priest of this temple.
You're a wart-riddled
no-good priest!
You're a stupid octopus of a
priest, what do you say to that?
Your travelling
companion is strong.
Hmph, my big brother's a professional killer
who specialises in you demon-types.
I will use you to
bait a trap for him.
What? You piece of scum!
Big brother isn't the kind
to fall for a trap!
You morons!
Just you wait! We'll cook
and eat all of you instead!
He's come.
Dororo!
Dororo!
The Buddha statue's head!
Could this be...
It's Dororo. Dororo is inside.
Hey, Dororo!
Big brother! You can't come
down here! Run, quick!
This is a trap!
Don't worry!
I'll be right there!
You can't! No! No! No! No!
I said you can't!
You okay, big brother?
You went and fell
right into their trap.
I've found you at
last, prepare yourself!
That is what I ought to say.
Have at him!
Those weasels all have
their bottoms pointed at us.
Dororo, hold your
breath! It's poison gas!
Augh! That stinks!
Who is that?
He did it!
Now's our chance.
There, we'll burn them to death!
How do you like that?
Take this! Take this!
This is bad.
Dororo, you head up first.
Right!
Big brother, your hand is burning!
Okay, cast a lot more
firewood down there!
Let's roast them all in there!
- Use this grass to put a stopper on it.
- Right away!
Woodcutter, I'm counting on you.
I'm heading to the memorial
tower. They're sure to head there.
Okay... Come out! Come out!
Don't run.
Got it.
Ah!
Okay, I have him cornered.
This wooden beam is called
a "Dokko" and it has the
power to seal demons.
Ah! Big brother is here!
Dororo! The demon
has run underneath it!
Big brother!
Big brother! Big brother!
I'm fine, Dororo.
Whew, thank goodness.
I can't believe that great
priest turned into a demon.
What a terrible waste.
Namu Amida Butsu.
Namu Amida Butsu.
Field mice, otters,
moles and frogs...
This is what the
priest had become.
It's too bad, since he had
come back to protect the mountain.
I-It's hot!
My right hand
can feel burning!
Big brother!
This is a very bad burn!
A burn? Okay, I know
just what to do for that.
Let me treat it for you.
I'm glad to have my sense of touch
back, but this burn feels very hot.
We'll hold proper memorial
services for the priest.
Take care on your travels.
We will.
Wow, I was very surprised.
I've met a lot of folk
who are slow and lazy,
but I've never been so amazed
as by him.
His name's Guutarou
and he's a beggar.
He's been sitting on the street in town
for 13 years! He hasn't moved at all!
He won't even eat until someone
puts the food in his mouth for him.
If his throat's dry, he
waits until it rains to drink.
If it's cold in winter, he
waits for summer to come.
If it's hot in summer,
he waits for winter.
He doesn't do anything
himself. He just waits, and waits, and waits.
If he waits, everything
just comes to him.
He's so slack, I
don't know what to say.
But he talks impressively
when he does talk.
I have a demon sealed
under this bottom of mine.
If I move, it will rampage
and devour you all, he says.
I wonder if it's true.
Well, see you next week! Bye!
