Gun-dou Musashi (2006–…): Season 1, Episode 9 - Sorceress of the Moon - 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...
I am Ieyasu Tokugawa, the one who was
supposed to be the shogun of Japan!
My handle name is Ryogen!
Pleased to meet you!
In fact, according to Yasha,
"handle name" is "nickname".
But that doesn't matter...
I rarely see my third son, Hidetada Tokugawa.
This fool tried to contact Musashi secretly.
Hidetada, this total moron,
asked Musashi to kill me.
What's the world coming to?
Dad is sad!
My little son doesn't call me papa anymore!
I ordered Yasha to put into execution
a plan to kidnap Princess Kaguya.
But Musashi got in our way!
Musashi, come here for a spanking!
Sorceress of the Moon
That's the princess!
Who are you?
The master of Sumpu Castle,
Hidetada Tokugawa.
Are you the son of Lord leyasu?
Yes, I am his son.
What happened...
...to leyasu Tokugawa?
You know it perfectly well!
So he's still...
...under the influence of the ayakashi.
It's your fault my father
has become a monster!
It's your fault!
What do you mean?
Hasn't that scoundrel leyasu
simply allied himself...
...with an ayakashi called Yasha?
In exchange for the Toyotomi's
ruin and power for himself,
my father agreed to sell his
soul and become an ayakashi.
I don't get it at all.
What's the link between the
shogunate and the this princess?
I just don't get it.
According to Yasha, the reason the
army of the west won at Sekigahara,
and Toyotomi seized power, is because
Lord Hideyoshi adopted Kaguya.
According to recorded history, the eastern
army is supposed to win at Sekigahara.
leyasu Tokugawa is the one
who becomes shogun...
...and establishes the
Tokugawa shogunate in Edo.
You already told me that.
I understand you telling me
all of that to please me,
but can we go back to talking
about more serious things?
That sounds so absurd it's not even humorous.
You don't really believe me.
Of course not!
It's only natural for my
father to be skeptical.
Your name is Yasha, correct?
I don't know what your plan is,
but spare us from that nonsense.
If you want me to believe
your hogwash, bring me proof.
Proof that the eastern army
should have won at Sekigahara,
that I become shogun,
and that I establish the
Tokugawa shogunate.
Very well.
You need proof to believe me.
What have you done?
Father!
This is...
the city of Edo...
An illusion?
Exactly, an illusion.
What?
But it shows the real Edo.
That is, what it would
look like under your reign.
The real...
...city of Edo?
And the same thing
applies to this castle.
The castle...
Is that really the real history?
Everything returned to the way it was.
Yasha, how did you create this illusion?
I have a device for that purpose.
It has to be said, the Tokugawa
shogunate will last 300 years.
300 years?
It is almost eternity.
Lord leyasu...
you'd have offered peace for the people of the Land of the Rising Sun.
Peace? For 300 years?
Am I the one who should have succeeded
where Nobunaga and Hideyoshi failed?
Am I?
Father.
Of course, you would have become
the second shogun, Lord Hidetada.
I would have become the second shogun?
I beg of you! Tell me!
Why did the course of history change?
Why did our army lose in Sekigahara?
Why did the Toyotomi
establish shogunate instead?
It's simple.
Because this person is under
the protection of the Toyotomi.
This person?
Who are you talking about?
Princess Kaguya.
That's ridiculous. No offense
to Princess Kaguya but,
she alone could not have changed
the outcome of this great war.
I thought the same thing.
I'd had enough of that nonsense.
But that scoundrel leyasu believed it.
Kaguya?
The girl Lord Hideyoshi adopted?
Yes.
I don't understand.
How did she singlehandedly change history?
Ever since Hideyoshi
has adopted Kaguya,
good fortune has
followed the Toyotomi.
Things that should not be
happening in history started to happen.
Did you know that,
in reality, the Keicho War...
should have ended with the
defeat of the Japanese army,
Lord leyasu.
How?
Is that true?
The invasion of Korea was
major blunder by Hideyoshi.
You should know that
better than anyone else.
True, I was the only one who opposed it.
Yet, we ended up winning in Korea,
and I became the least
powerful of the Five Elders.
If the Japanese army
won the Keicho war,
and the western army was
victorious at Sekigahara,
it's entirely due to Kaguya's
supernatural powers.
Supernatural powers?
Would Princess Kaguya
be someone special, then?
Princess Kaguya is a sorceress of the Moon.
A sorceress of the Moon?
Sorceress of the Moon?
What in the world?
Like The Tale of the Bamboo Cutter fairy tale?
You came from the Moon?
If I did, what would you do, Musashi?
Nothing in particular.
I'll just call you "bragging princess".
But I don't think that scoundrel leyasu
was so naive as to believe this nonsense.
He's done more than that.
Because of you, my father
sold his soul to the ayakashi!
Please drink it.
Is it really true?
If I drink it, will I receive the blood
that will allow me to marry Kaguya?
History will go back to normal and I,
instead of Toyotomi, will establish...
...a 300 year shogunate
that will bring on peace?
Exactly.
To marry Kaguya, the sorceress of the
Moon, you cannot remain human.
To do this, it is necessary to
sublimate the human soul.
Father!
Don't do it, please!
Father!
Hidetada, don't get in my way,
I'll do anything for the Rising Sun,
for you, my son, for my grandchildren, may the
Tokugawa reign over the country for eternity!
Father!
Father!
Hang in there!
You scoundrel, you tricked him!
Did you poison him?
Are you not human?
Don't tell me you're an ayakashi?
If I was, what would you do?
Human strength is not enough to
bring down the Toyotomi shogunate.
That is why we, a hundred
times stronger than men,
will give you a helping hand.
Don't mess with me!
The Tokugawa will not stoop so
low as to ask ayakashi for help!
Look at your father and
you will change your mind.
What?
Father!
Father!
What did you do to my father?
I will reborn him into an
ayakashi with immense power.
In order to marry Kaguya...
...ayakashi power is essential.
What incredible power!
I feel 30 years younger!
But I'm really hungry.
Why are you running away?
It's me, leyasu!
Monster!
How rude!
Take a good look at my face!
Amazing!
I feel even younger!
My father, Ieyasu Tokugawa,
no longer belongs in this world.
All that remains in his place is a grotesque and
evil monster, the ayakashi named Ryogen.
Is that why you asked
Musashi to kill your father?
And I'm going to kill Kaguya!
Isn't it risky to kill a Moon sorceress?
Without her, my father would
have no reason to sell his soul!
Are you sure?
If you kill Kaguya, you can no
longer overthrow the Toyotomi.
And I doubt that you can kill her.
What?
She is truly an acrobat.
I cannot imagine her as
a sorceress of the Moon.
With such a violent princess, the moon
rabbits must see all kinds of things.
Musashi, do something!
You've got it under control.
Musashi!
At this rate, we will arrive at
Osaka Castle before evening.
The princess is falling!
Musashi, that's enough!
Do you wanna help me now?
I don't feel like it!
I would for a fragile maiden,
but you are too strong!
You can easily handle Hidetada.
Musashi!
That was the cry of a fragile maiden!
Ronin!
Let's go!
This is terrible.
Who would do this to a young maiden?
You've rescued the princess.
I am grateful.
Are you the one who tied her up?
Come on, hand me the princess.
- No!
- What did you say?
If you want her, you have to take her by force.
You look strong, missy.
Do you know who you are talking to?
I don't really care.
When you tie someone up like this,
you are bound to be a criminal.
Amusing.
Be careful, she's not a normal woman.
Draw your sword.
I use this!
Gun-dou?
Stop!
Musashi and Yukimura, stop!
Yukimura?
Yukimura?
As in Sanada Yukimura?
Princess Kaguya!
What are you doing here?
It can't be, Princess Yume?
I don't care if Sanada Yukimura
is a man or a woman!
I will punish those who dare
to hurt a fragile maiden!
