Samurai Rabbit: The Usagi Chronicles (2022–…): Season 2, Episode 8 - The Chizu Stands Alone - full transcript

Welcome home, guys.

Toshiko, we found my ancestor's sword!
Check it out!

I look good
in all five main fight postures. Yes!

Can I borrow that for a teppanyaki night?

Kiyoko! Thanks so much for watching her.

It was a breeze, Kitsune.

Hi! Hi!

Best friend.

"Best friend"? Oh, uh...

Hi, hi, hi!

Best best friend.



Oh, Yoki.

Kitsy!

They grow up so fast.

What exactly is she?

Yeah, I couldn't begin to tell you.

Huh?

Sensei, it's so good
to see you up and around.

That orb does not belong in this world!

That chair does not belong in this world!

Yeah, this keeps happening.

Some weird Yokai version of sleepwalking.

That shade of brown
does not belong in this world!

When she wakes up,
she's gonna be so embarrassed.

That wall
does not belong in this world.



That rug belongs in this world,

but not in this room.

It throws off the color scheme.

Shouldn't you be
heading to the temple to...

- Ahh!
- Pardon my intrusion, Lady Chizu.

I just got home.

Your spies say Fuwa is planning
to take back the Neko Ninja Crew.

Wait, you have spies?

Usagi, we're ninja.
We're basically all spies.

Yeah, that makes sense.

Chizu, you need help?

Thanks, but I think
I have to handle this myself.

Man, ninja really know
how to make an exit, huh?

Don't look!

Don't look.

- I can see through your hands a little.
- Then close your eyes.

Okay, open them.

Huh?

Behold.

The defensebotto.

Wow!

It's a miracle of engineering.

Unfortunately, it's hard
for me to control it

because of my ghostly hands.

Gen, I would like you to operate it.

Because of my fighting skills?

Because you have the thickest skin.
It might explode.

Hmm... pass.

Gen, if the invasion comes,
we'll need everything we can get.

All right, okay, fine.

Yes!

Up you go.

Uh...

Yeah, I don't like heights.

Just think of it as deep, but upside down.

Don't tap the glass.

I thought your people were frozen.

They are, but... fingerprints.

So, look what I got.

Ahh!

Oh, no. Sorry, I forgot.
The last time you saw Willow Branch, uh...

Yes, it is not a good memory.

Let us hope it can cut the Clavis free.

Perhaps it can save your people.

Though it seems to be too late
to save mine.

Oh, well, if I chop off the Clavis
and stop the gateway from opening,

you'll never find out
how to return them to normal.

No, but, Usagi,
you must do what is necessary

to protect your own people.

Try not to mess up the Ki-Stone.

Usagi.

I'm proud of you.

Let's do this!

Ikuzo!

You totally missed, man.

He didn't miss. Why did you pull back?

If I do this, Kagehito's people
will never get out of that bubble.

Usagi, if the Clavis opens that gateway,

it could be the literal end of the world.

You have to chop that thing off right now!

It just doesn't feel right
to win if others suffer.

- There has to be a better way.
- You may have a point.

And if we stop this gateway,

sooner or later,
the Makkine will just create another.

So what are we supposed to do?

The only way to keep this world safe
is to defeat the Makkine.

To hit them so hard
they'll never attack us again.

To scare them off forever.

And we can't do that unless we let them
come through that gateway.

Are you nuts?

Did you see the claw
that came through before?

Usagi's right.

This is the only way.

Ugh.

I really don't like it, but you're right.
We can't run from this fight.

Yeah. Guess we'll just have to find
a way to defeat them.

Fuwa could be here at any moment.

You and you, crossbows in the alley.

Uh, you two, guard the secret entrance.

Fumiko and I will stay here.

The rest of you, defensive maneuver six.

Every day, we lose more ninja to Fuwa
and her so-called "True Crew Ninja."

But you ninja who remain
are the best ones.

- Yeah! Woo-hoo!
- Yes, we are!

Okay, now that the spy
has gone to tell Fuwa our plan,

here's the real plan.

Watch where you're going.

That would mean looking down,
and down is too far away!

- Hey!
- Kiyoko!

Was that a peanut? Ahh!

Kiyoko!

Best best friend.

Let us never part again.

You okay, Kiyoko?

Again! Again!

I'm so sorry. Is she all right?

She seems to be fine.

Whatever Kiyoko is,
she must be nearly indestructible.

Indestructible!

Tetsujin, that botto is impossible.

No, no. Dividing by zero is impossible.

The defensebotto is merely difficult.

- Can you find someone else?
- I'll do it.

Oh! And he was doing so well
for the first one and a half seconds.

That thing is defective!

It is impossible to control.

I know, right? It's like the world's
most complicated puppet.

Kitsune!

What?

The only one who could possibly control
the defensebotto would be a puppeteer.

So you're telling me

my skill with puppets
could be the thing that saves the world?

- Weirdly enough, yeah.
- I always knew this day would come.

I keep saying,
"Someday puppetry will save the world,"

but everyone keeps saying, "Why are you
yelling at me? This is a library!"

Okay.

Let's do this.

Come on, Kiyoko. You can't get stepped on
if you're up there with me.

Yes, best friend.

Don't press the button
with the smiling face!

This one?

That's the one.

I probably should've put
a lightning bolt on that button.

But the smiling face was so cheerful.

It is important
to keep our war machines upbeat.

I don't know what you were
complaining about. This thing is easy.

Okay, but don't press
the button with the...

This one?

That's the one.

Lady Chizu, they're coming.

True Ninja,
prepare to create mayhem.

Archers, now!

Secret entrance.

They moved the door!

To where?

If we told you, it wouldn't be
a secret entrance, would it?

Hello, Fuwa. We have you surrounded.

I thought we got rid of the spies.

Suboptimal.

Well, Lady Chizu, you tried it your way.

Now I'm going to take the Neko Ninja
back to the basics.

Violence, intimidation, and theft.

Who's with me?

Fumiko, looks like it's just you and me.

You see?

No one is loyal to you.

Why should they be?

You left your true family
to join a bunch of losers.

They don't care about you.

They care more than you.

Oh, please. Does Tetsujin ever
even ask you about your hobbies? Like...

Yes, Lady Fuwa?

Decorative knots?

I mean, hanetsuki? Or...

Am I getting warm?

You don't care about me.
You don't care about anyone but yourself.

My friends, the ones you call losers,

are the only ones
who have ever cared about me.

I'll tell you what I care about.

I care about demonstrating

that I can defeat you.

I beat you once before.

Yes, but this time I'm ready.
I've been working out.

Want to see me crack a walnut
with my butt?

No!

I kind of do.

So now I'm worried that,
by not cutting off the Clavis,

I may have doomed this entire planet.

How can I know for sure, Sensei?

Meditation has cleared your head
in the past.

Willow Branch may still be of use.

Yeah, I know, right?
It really holds its edge.

No. Remember, swords have wisdom.

Meditate over Willow Branch.

You will learn something.

Oh, and...

Hey, earlier today, was I going around
saying things don't belong in this world?

I mean, a little.

Ugh, so embarrassing.

The dojo is already mine.

I'm fighting for my honor.

You are fighting for your life.

You stole my orphans,

you ruined the Neko Ninja Crew,

and, worst of all,
you kicked me out of my own dojo

on tofu katsu night.

So strong, and so strong-willed.

You were always my favorite.

It's a shame I have to waste you.

Seven against one?

If you're gonna cheat, cheat.

I believe I'll take that advice.

Huh? What's happening?

The floor is shaking!

What are you doing?

Smile!

I brought help!

Now can I squash those ninja?

And especially Lady Fuwa? Please!

No, let them go.

Just a little?

I'm done with you and the crew, Fuwa,

but if I ever hear
about you kidnapping another child...

- Got it?
- Uh-huh!

Who wants a bunch
of grubby kids around anyway?

You wanna talk about it?

I just... I thought
I was making a difference.

You did!

You totally saved the kids!

That's huge!

Okay.

"Meditate on the sword," she said.

I don't think anything's gonna happen,
but I'll give it a...

Huh?

Whoa!

This is cool!

Greetings, grandson.

Miyamoto Usagi!
It's such an honor to meet you.

I've dreamed of this day
for so long, and I...

Whoa!

Sorry, I'm... Whoa!

Trying to bow, but I'm having trouble
getting the hang of it.

Are you a spirit,

or am I communicating with you
in the past?

The difference is only
a matter of perspective.

There's so much I want to ask you,
but I need to know,

can I use Willow Branch
to cut the Clavis off the Ki-Stone?

You can,

but you must wait until the time is right.

One must not spring the trap
before the prey is in it.

This prey, um,

does it have, like, an ETA,
or should I just...

Only you will know when it is time.
Listen to your heart.

Ugh. Okay, fine, but just because
I'm meditating now doesn't mean

I'm suddenly all about stillness,
and waiting, listening to my heart.

In my time, there's an exercise
we used to become more patient.

You must sit on your hands.

Okay, I did it.
Now can you tell me what the exercise is?

Whoa!

"One must not spring the trap
before the prey is in it."

You can do it.
Just a few more steps, monster.

Your dimension contains
far too much name-calling.

- Hi! Hi! Hi!
- Ahh!

That, that...

What is it?

That is one of the
most deadly things in all the multiverse!

Oh, please.

Is this the face of a deadly thing?

That is not a face.
It is a shell.

The eggs were brought
by my interdimensional craft.

Each egg will hatch into a biomech,

a robot far more powerful
and destructive than a warbotto.

The five biomechs will all come together
to form a terrible weapon.

The Mega Biomech!

You're mega bananas.
Kiyoko's not an egg.

She's a, um, uh...

Okay, we don't know what she is,
but she's not some killer robot.

Kitsune, why would Kagehito
make something like that up?

He's just wrong!

Look, if Kiyoko is potentially dangerous,

maybe we should, you know, take steps.

You're not hurting Kiyoko!

Whoa, whoa, whoa!

Nobody wants to hurt her.

Hey, guys, I totally
just met my ancestor. And...

Whoa. Did somebody
eat the last yakitori skewer?

Yes, but, that...
that's not the problem here.

You all like Kiyoko! I know you do.

Hi, hi, hi!

Kitsune, I just meant maybe we should
send her to the farm or something.

Somewhere away from Neo Edo.

Yippee! Yippee! Yippee! Yippee!

Huh?

It is too late!

They really do grow up fast.
