20,000 ryo is...

Hey... this...

Mind your manners

Sit when you eat

What kind of meat is this?

This? What was it?

This is... you know...

You see it riding on that platform...

It's dog

Tastes pretty good

Today, it's a little

tougher than usual

Than usual?

You know what'll happen

if the Shogun finds out!

He won't,

if you keep your mouth shut

Besides, you ate some, too

Hey, you can't eat and run

Leave the knife in payment

I'll drive you out!

Every last one of you!

Thanks for your patronage

Come back soon!

It's been 5 days now

Can't even go to work

You hardly work

even when the sun's shining

But when it keeps pouring this way,

it even makes you feel poorly

Right?

I haven't been able to sh*t at all

How long?

It's 4 days now

It's 5 days for me

Look how bloated I am...

See?

You're right

What is it?

I've got no business with you

Move

Are you going to disappear again?

I hate the rain

When it rains,

I always remember that night

I see your face against

that bloody ceiling

I should've died, too, back then

If I had...

Is that how you've always felt?

How sad

Cut it out

You're not the only one

whose folks nearly killed you

What?

What do you want me to do?

Come with me...

Somewhere far away...

Of course not...

It's too late for that

I've got his baby,

inside my belly

Is that so?

You're having a baby

You'll have a new family

That's good

Forget it

You have your baby,

become a mother,

get old,

and go all wrinkly

Can I watch you the whole time?

You live in a filthy dump,

dressed up like a samurai

You'll never amount

to anything, anyway

What's so great about

being a samurai?

We were born better than you

Who says so?

Bring him here

What!

Get 'em!

Wait!

What's with them?

Strange

Let's go

Yoshibo

Before you said, "What's

so great about being a samurai?"

That's what Daddy says,

when he drinks

I see... your father does

Daddy tells me to run from fights

But I hate running,

so I had a different idea

People who are truly strong,

don't fight without a reason

Your father must be

a man of great character

Yeah

Excuse me

Oh, it's Mom

Hello

I live across the way

I'm sorry

they've caused you trouble

Hey, Yoshi!

Were you fighting again?

What did you promise your father?

I wasn't in a fight, right?

Hi, Shinbo

Your mother said

she has a few more customers to visit

Please wait for her a little longer

It's all right

I'll wait until she returns

I'll be going then

Come play with my son again

Tomorrow

I wonder if Daddy will

come home early

I wonder

He said he'd make me a wheel

Won't that be nice

There's a portrait of my father

Would you like to see it?

Of your father?

I know she looks at it

secretly at night

Here it is

WANTED:

Doesn't he look strong?

Don't tell Mother

What's wrong, Soza san?

I fell into the crap...

I... may be dressed up

as a simple drug seller,

but in fact I'm a samurai

I say samurai, but I'm just

a foot soldier, a former peasant

I see

So all I think about is wanting

to die a samurai's death

Then I'll finally be a real samurai

That way, my son can truly

live as a samurai's son

I can't leave him any land or money...

So it's the least I can do

Kichiemon san,

who taught you how to play Go?

After I began carrying swords,

however badly

Everyone told me it would

make me more like a samurai

I learned by watching

My father taught me

When I was a child

I'd forgotten that...

I learned more from my father

than fencing...

You're very lucky

I'm grateful

Truly grateful

I'll pass on the basics of Go

to Shinbo, soon

A revenge, a revenge...

After a 3 year search for my enemy,

I, Aoki Sozaemon of the Matsumoto clan,

have finally avenged my father

When cut down, a man...

The single, mortal blow ran

from the right side to his back

What incredible swordplay...

My vengeance was a warrior's revenge

Bear no grudge

Do you hate the man

who killed your father?

I hate...

I hate him

The other day, your son

stopped a fight...

He saved Shinbo,

who lives in our neighborhood

Our Yoshi...

Is that so?

How old is he?

Seven

He's not mine by birth...

Why don't you

start sending him to my private

school next year

It would make Shinbo happy

A repeat performance of

our spring revenge play

Very cool

It's so like Soza san

But, isn't it risk y?

We screw up, we'll be in big trouble

But if we pull it off,

we'll get at least 100 ryo

100 ryo!

With 100 ryo we can pay off all

our back rent

and have some left

That's 14 ryo each

I'm in!

I'm in, too!

Me, too

I want you all to play

the excited passersby

Tomekichi san,

I need you to find a pig

Can I please say that line

"Now you deserve revenge"?

May I?

A samurai holds Justice

dearer than life itself

Composed of Self and Beauty

He defends Justice

and defending...

Enough of your crap

Eat sh*t!

No,

even I won't eat sh*t

until it's become rice cakes

Listen, "Eat sh*t" doesn't actually mean...

If you really want money,

it has to be real

Turning it into a pantomime...

The whole point is, it's fake

I wouldn't dare kill someone

"Tall tales make flowers bloom

but bear no fruit"

That's what they used to say

Well, I say, let's make

a field of flowers bloom

Down to 9 ryo...

Don't you hate him!

Don't you despise your father's killer!

No,

you're all wrong

Each of us has our own

method of hating

Soza san is...

Making that hatred...

It's larger than...

You see...

That's it!

Soza san has turned sh*t

into rice cakes

Taken the sh*t inside him

and made it rice cakes...

Osae san

"Sh*t this and sh*t that,"

is Mago's line

Turning sh*t into rice cakes

inside you...

Amazing!

No, Mago, it's not like that

There's no way you can fake a corpse?

Leave it all to me

I've got enough bones

No, any fool can see

they're dog bones

You can't fool a temple priest

Leave it to me

I'll take it to my family's temple

Your father's a priest?

A priest?

Yeah, didn't I tell you?

The Jodo sect

All right

If you insist,

I will help you with this plan

Should we succeed,

recommend me to your clan

- Your real motive!

- What a nerve...

Can't I at least say "Not so fast!"

I'll get it right

You always mix things up

Shut up

Yeah, we don't need you to mess it up

Mago san, I'd like you to

play the lead in this revenge

A revenge!

Took him 3 years

but he avenged his father

What incredible swordplay!

Incredible

A revenge!

A revenge!

I, Aoki Sozaemon have avenged

my father's murderer,

I, Hirano Jirozaemon,

did duly witness this revenge

Deadly combat

Well done!

It was deadly combat

The notices have been posted

In these peaceful times...

a truly commendable spirit

Now for the autopsy...

The mortal blow ran from his

right side to his back

Felled by a single blow

When cut down,

a man bleeds so tremendously...

I was shocked

Oto! Intestines!

You're right

How awful...

What will you do?

Do you still want to see it?

My beloved!

Daddy!

Darling!
