Grenadier: The Beautiful Warrior (2004–2005): Season 1, Episode 5 - Explosion! Kensousen, Kurenai Touka - full transcript

GRENADIER

Carving my footsteps
in the amber colored road...

... I've finally come this far.
I keep my eyes on the road ahead.

Only time moves faster than me...

I look back...
the road behind me shines blue.

The flames of all the lives
I've encountered...

I wish I could hold them in my arms.

So that we don't get swept away
by this great river...

... I want our hearts to be one.

We're all travelers, after all.

TOUKAROU



Our customer is leaving.

Master Hashimoto,
did you enjoy yourself?

I've tasted paradise.

Then you won't fight anymore?

How could I? Now that I know about this
place, I wouldn't want to go to battle...

...and die a meaningless death.
Not even the stupidest person would.

But the world is still a rough place,
and I can't get rid of my katana...

Huh?

I thought I put it on earlier...

Mikan!

Mikan!

Where are Master Hashimito's valuables?

What?

I don't know.



You were holding on to them.
Give them back right now!

Don't make me repeat myself.
If you insist that you don't have them...

...I can't let you
stay here at Toukarou.

Please accept our apologies.

Don't worry about it.
I almost forgot about it myself.

That's how wonderful this place is.

Mikan, why would you want a weapon?

Because, you never know
when evil people will attack us.

If that should happen, I will
protect us. Don't you believe in me?

Of course I do!

I do, but...

Episode 5
Explosion! Kensousen, Kurenai Touka

Yatchan, you're mistaken.

You've got the wrong idea about Tenshi!

Then what kind person is she?

In this time of war, she believes if even
one person could put down his weapon...

She sent you out on this journey, right?

She expects her pawns to do all her work
for her. She won't lift a finger herself.

That's the kind of person she is.

Tenshi has her reasons.

Stop defending her.

I don't know what her reasons are,
but who puts a price on...

...the head of a person she trusts?

Take another look at this.

I'm sure there's an explanation.

Well, now that you're wanted
and everyone knows your face...

...it would be a good idea
to lay low for a while.

Yes.

A wagon load of women!

There's no escaping from us Tenmatoh!

Tenmatoh?

Let's take off those clothes.

I'll take them off for you!

You didn't see my face, did you?

All he saw were her panties.

Who the hell are you?
Are you one of them?

Damn it!

Are you okay?

Are you hurt?

No... huh?

I don't know where you come from,
Missy.

But you got guts standing up
to the Tenmatoh!

I'm glad. So you don't know who I am.

What?

Get her!

Shit!

We won't forget this!

I broke a sweat again.

Um...

Yes?

How can we ever thank you?

Thank you so much.

Please, we have to help
each other in times of need!

But more importantly, is there any
place nearby where I can take a bath?

In that case, please come to our inn.

Huh? An inn?

Yes, and there's no charge, so please!

Can we eat for free too?

Yatchan!

Let's take them up on it.

But...

Our baths are famous.

Then we will take you up on your offer.

Cheapskate.

An inn?

Wow!

This is our inn.

Toukarou.

Is this... a brothel?

PLEASURE PALACE, TOUKAROU

This is amazing!

It looks like fun!

Is it your first time
in a place like this?

As if! I've been loads of times!

FIRST TIME

Huh?

Hmm...

What huge boobs! You have a nice body!

How old are you?

Sixteen.

Ouch.

Mikan!

She's a very important guest.

What, she's not a new girl?

I'm Rushuna Tendo,
nice to meet you.

Hey, don't give your name up so easily.

Oh, you're right.

Oh, so she's just a customer.

That's too bad. She's got the goods...

She came to our rescue when these
bandits called the Tenmatoh attacked us.

Tenmatoh, you said?

I see... a guest.

It's decided then.
I'll look after these guests.

Mikan, are you sure?

No problem.
Mikan, are you sure?

Follow me.

Mikan... What is she up to this time?

That's...

How is the temperature?

It's great, thank you.

I'll leave your clothes here.

Okay!

That was easy.

But what an old gun!

Oh, who cares. A gun is a gun.

Um, Mikan?

Wh-what?

Is this what I'm supposed to put on?

That's all we have here.

I'll wash your clothes for you.

Thank you, but does it look good?

Yes it does! You could even work here!

And, one more thing.

What?
And, one more thing.

Would you mind giving my gun back?

Huh? This?

I'll hold on to this!

It's not a toy. Please give it back.

Fine then, I guess I'll give it back...

Catch me if you can!

Ha!

No problem!

Mikan, you're fast.

Don't underestimate me just cuz
I'm a kid. I know how to use a gun.

In order to shoot, you have
to pull the hammer back first.

Huh?

It's so stiff. Is it broken?

I don't think you can do it.
I have it set pretty tight.

Huh?

So that I can feel
the weight of a life.

...weight of a life?

If you're going to shoot someone,
you have to have a certain awareness.

Can you get up, Mikan?

To-Touka.

Mikan, didn't you hear
my warning this morning?

But the Tenmatoh bastards are close!

Tenmatoh?

That's why I need a weapon!

Mikan!

There's nothing you can do
about it anyway!

I thought I told you to leave it to me!

But!

No "buts."

I have some business to
discuss with this woman.

Go.

You're...

Yes.

...the one with the price on her head.

Price on her head?

That's a misunderstanding!

I haven't done anything
to make Tenshi go after me.

I'll ask your dead body if
it's a misunderstanding or not!

It causes an explosion the
moment it makes contact...

It's the Kensousen, one of
the Ten Sacred Weapons.

KENSOUSEN

If she can use that...

Touka!

Rushuna Tendo.

She's...

Madam...

You're one of the
Juttensen, are you not?

JUTTENSEN
Ten Heavenly Enlightened

The ten strongest Senshi in the world
who serve and protect Tenshi...

...the Juttensen.

It is my understanding that
you are the Senshi with the lance.

That was a long time ago.

If that's the case,
then please tell me.

Why would the
Tento Security Sector be after me?

Why did Tenshi put a price on my head?

Enough talking.

Hey!

What are you doing?

That's what I'd like to know!
What's all the ruckus out there?

I can't eat in peace!

Your comrade is in a pinch!

Check out that weapon. Is that a lance?

That's it?

Aren't you worried?

It's a gun against a lance.
It's no contest.

The lady with the lance
looks pretty intense.

But Rushuna's honed
her skills in battle.

There's nothing to worry about.

Now where's my food...

Hey!

But now that they know there's a price
on her head, we can't stay here for long.

I better eat while I can.

You've got some good moves...

But running will only get you killed.

I told you, I...

Come one!

Do I have to shoot?

Is that it?

Is that the inn where
the girls you let go live?

Yes!

Nice place. It looks like
we can have some fun there.

Great!

We'll make that whole
pleasure palace ours!

Professor, we're counting on you.

Getting serious, are we?

Only because you won't stop.

I can't let a wanted woman
stay at my place.

I said that was a misunderstanding!

I can't do it. She's using the
chains as a shield. I have to...

...dive into the chains.

She's done for!

What!

Just her sash?

She's amazing!

Just a mere scrape?

It's been a long time since I've met
someone who could dodge my lance.

You're finished!

She's slower!

Touka...

Wait.

I give up.

If I'm causing trouble, I will leave
right away. Please forgive me.

I-I see.

I'm very sorry.

Hold on.

I was wrong.

Rushuna Tendo, I believe you.

Miss Touka...

You saw that I'm not well
and you went easy on me.

But don't tell my girls.

No one knows. I don't
want to worry them.

You sure erased my will to fight.

You're following the teachings of Tenshi.
There's no way you are a traitor.

You mean...

The folks in the capital
must have made a mistake.

No, even in the capital there
are people with bad intentions.

Touka!

Touka!

I don't think she's a bad guy.

Madam, I don't think so either.

She's not a bad person.

I know.

In order to strip men of their
armor, it helps to have a girl like this.

I started this pleasure palace because
I was following the teachings of Tenshi.

Sex appeal is the best thing
to strip men of their armor.

Although sometimes a little boy
comes around and refuses to take...

...his armor off.

Okay! I'll leave right away!

Yajiro Kojima, right?

Because she's with a swordsman like
you, this misunderstanding came about.

Huh? How do you know my name?

We've never even met.

Word gets around. You're pretty
well known on the battlefield...

...Tiger of the Rear Guard.

Madam!

Madam, big trouble! It's them!

The bandits from
this afternoon are here!

Hey, hey, hey, lady...

Calling us bandits is not nice.

We are customers, and therefore, gods.

Greet us with more heart!

Madam, you need to train them better!
Where is the Madam?

I'm the Madam.

You're...

Touka Kurenai.

It's been a while.

Not bad, building a place like this
in just one year. Impressive.

What do you want?

We reserve the right to refuse
to serve violent people.

How unkind.

We've come as customers.

It's him...

It's him!

Mikan!

I won't forgive him.

Let's let Miss Touka handle this.

Not him.

You want to drink?

Fine, let me arrange for a table.

You've become so very understanding.

This is a great opportunity.
Why don't I make you mine?

It'll be easy. You just have
to entertain me while I eat.

We'll run this pleasure palace.

I'm trying to do you a favor, Touka.

You don't want to see your
pleasure palace go to waste.

Go to waste?

If it were to be destroyed or something...

Let go!

He killed my parents!

I want vengeance!

Let me have my revenge!

No.

No.

Come on Touka, get rid of
these pissy little kids...

What a disadvantage it is to be a man.

Boss!

You!

If you want to fight,
I'll take you on, boys...

Whenever, wherever,
as often as you like...

If we're going to do it,
don't bother with the scraps...

...bring on the real men!

Crap!

Why?

Why won't you kill them?

Damn Touka!

Does she really think I'm
going to back down that easy?

Hey.

Yes.

All alone,
so many nights I want to cry.

Everyone dreams on
the road of the endless journey.

Always believe in something,
and always lose something.

I hold you.

All the tears I shed
will turn into kindness.

I'm sure.

Don't be defeated by sadness.

Keep your eye on tomorrow.

You're not alone.
Everyone has dreams to come true.

The winds of tomorrow will
bring the fragrance of kindness.

It's a promise...
I'll always be by your side.

Next Episode

Enemies attack Toukarou. They are
after both Toukarou and my head.

I must live up to
Miss Touka's belief in me.

A strange weapon that appears
out of nowhere... it's a robot!

Can we beat something like this?
And my panties came off!
