00:00Overwhelmed by hearing the world around him, Yakimaru was injured.
00:05He was taken in by a girl named Mio, who had created a safe haven for children orphaned by the war.
00:13But, as Yakimaru found himself face to face with a demon god, his new friend saw something he would never forget.
00:22That's... that's just not...
00:27I gotta get back.
00:32Oh, hey! Oh man, what happened?
00:36Dororo, perfect timing. Help me out.
00:39Are you okay?
00:41Oh my god, his leg!
00:44I knew he should not fight with his injuries. The demon god has taken it.
00:50You in pain? What can I do?
00:53Wait, his voice?
00:55That's right. Despite losing his leg, it seems he did get his voice back.
00:59Huh?
01:01So he can... talk?
01:11Oh, Mio! Welcome back!
01:14Thanks.
01:15Whoa!
01:19What happened? You're hurt!
01:23It's nothing serious. I just tripped coming back.
01:27Well, okay, but you should really lie down. This is exactly why I was so against you going to work at both of the camps.
01:34You're better off just...
01:35What's that?
01:36Oh, you see.
01:37Oh, you see.
01:44Hyakimaru!
01:47What happened?
01:48Calm down. He's not going to die. But he... he is simply not ready to fight.
01:53Come on now. Never mind him, Mio. You need to get some rest.
02:00But... I'm the one experienced with this. You get food ready for everyone, okay?
02:06Everyone okay?
02:27Damn it!
02:29What happened to you all of a sudden? I mean, shouldn't you be staying to look after your friend?
02:34Yeah, but...
02:35Well, I guess it's okay. Mio's still there for him.
02:41I tell ya, her need to take care of people is a real pain. She should really be taking care of herself sometimes.
02:47Hey, Take, have you ever gone to work at the camps with Mio before?
02:51I always stay behind. We can't leave the little ones here all alone.
02:56Guess not.
02:57What can I do, you know? We have to rely on Mio to go to work, or else we're all just going to starve to death.
03:03Look, I'm not blaming you, okay?
03:05And you know what? We made a promise. To own a rice field someday.
03:10A rice field?
03:12Yeah. It'll be a big ol' sea of green in the summer!
03:15And then the field will turn golden in the fall. Gold like money!
03:20And we'll grow more rice than we can ever eat!
03:23Up until now, we've only seen rice fields burnt by war or all dried up by droughts.
03:29But Mio said they used to be everywhere when she was a kid.
03:34Everyone, we're going to have our very own rice field someday.
03:39Green and golden. And all ours.
03:41It won't be very long, and I can go off to work too! That way Mio won't have to work so dang hard!
03:49Hey! Take!
03:51Yeah! I'm coming!
03:56Don't you worry. War took a lot from us, Take. This is how we take some back from it.
04:01You know, we could use a good rain about now.
04:11Well, I wouldn't worry. We've always been blessed by rains every year.
04:15See? There are some clouds forming now.
04:17Please, Father! Allow me to join the reinforcements to suppress the Sakai Clan!
04:25Let me show you I can crush a small domain like it is nothing!
04:29War is not to be underestimated. If that is how you think, then you are yet too young. Get back to training, boy.
04:38Father!
04:39Tohomaru!
04:40Mother!
04:42Mother.
04:44Mother.
04:46Could you please talk to Father so that I should be allowed to fight in the war?
04:50Your father just told you that you are not yet ready to fight. No matter what I say to him, that answer will not change.
04:55Father does not understand any of this! If he would just allow me to go to war, then I can distinguish myself in battle!
05:02Would that not make you both pleased?
05:05Of all things...
05:07Would my achievements not make you and Father proud?
05:09That's not what I mean.
05:11No. You are always like this, Mother. No matter what sort of great prize I hunt down, or how skilled I am at fighting, it is never enough for you, is it?
05:20It's just that I... It's just I dislike anything to do with war.
05:26It is not war that you dislike. It is me.
05:29How can you even think that? Tohomaru, where is there a mother on earth who would do such a thing?
05:44Hyogo! Mutsu! Time for a ride! Bring the horses around!
05:48Yes, sir.
05:49Young master!
05:54You need not say anything, Mutsu. I know that I acted a bit childish.
05:58A bit?
06:00The lady of the house is very kind. Especially to you. Always.
06:05Yes, I heard you the first time! Ha!
06:11True. Mother has never once been unkind to me. Yet still...
06:16Young master! Young master, that's too dangerous!
06:20You shall get hurt!
06:21Hyogo! Mutsu!
06:22Hyogo! Mutsu!
06:24Young master! Look at me! Look at me!
06:26I know you can hear me! Do come down!
06:29Please, young master! Get down here, right there!
06:31You mustn't be up there!
06:33I said to get down! Young master! Young master! You need to come down!
06:38There is something in this world to which Mother gives her heart so strongly, above all else.
06:43She will never say it, but she is hiding something.
06:47And it is not just Mother. Father is hiding things, too.
06:50It is very simple. This domain and everyone in it sits atop a very fragile foundation.
06:56I would ask you never forget where you put us.
07:02They are keeping something from me.
07:20Oh, Yakimaru!
07:34You must stay put!
07:40You mustn't go!
07:41I understand that you're frustrated, but pushing yourself is only going to make it worse.
07:45To be honest, I've done the same. I pushed myself too hard as well.
07:50That was stupid of me.
07:52I knew it wasn't going to be easy to make money.
07:58No, no. I swore that I would never cry because of a samurai ever again.
08:03I cry, I lose. The same for you.
08:06If you try too hard and die, you lose.
08:09Anyways, I heard that you found your voice.
08:12That's amazing. Try to say something.
08:13Huh? Are you saying it's noisy? Your own voice?
08:18Huh?
08:20You'll get used to it.
08:23Dororo told me, if you don't heal, you'll be like an injured animal hiding in a cave.
08:29Hmm. Well then, a song.
08:32I know you like songs, right?
08:34I found a red flower and pulled it.
08:45You know, I sing whenever I feel sad. Keeps me from crying, so...
08:50I found a red flower and pulled it. I found a red flower for her.
09:04Where shall I place this crimson treasure?
09:09Nowhere other than...
09:13You're leaving?
09:15Yes. I shall be taking it slowly, and go where I can.
09:19It is easy enough to go around where the demon god is.
09:23I am in no hurry anyway.
09:24Although, it would be useless to try and convince Hiyakimaru of that.
09:29Why's that?
09:31If you take something away from a child, the child will always try to get it back.
09:35He was born with nothing.
09:37And now, he can take back everything he has never known.
09:40In his horror, her song seems to calm him down.
09:45Calm down how?
09:47The demon god flames that Hiyakimaru has sensed his entire life.
09:52They are the embers left behind from his whole ordeal.
09:56Or something like that, perhaps.
09:59Just make sure that whatever comes out of that cave is not a demon itself.
10:04Bye now.
10:05Please don't stare at me.
10:14Hiyakimaru, I understand you are able to see people's souls.
10:18The colors of them.
10:20Please, don't look at mine.
10:23It's probably really filthy, really...
10:27Your hands, they don't make me tremble.
10:36It is a reprimand from our lord.
10:42No provisions.
10:44He will send them, and men.
10:46But, waiting would only bring shame.
10:48We strike.
10:50Time for an attack.
10:51Don't let them see it coming.
10:53Tell all the men to be on watch for any Sakai spies.
10:57Yes, sir!
11:05You going to work?
11:08So, I guess you know now what my job is.
11:11Sorry, I didn't mean to look on purpose.
11:14It's fine.
11:15I honestly don't feel all that ashamed about it.
11:18It is how we all survive.
11:21But, I understand if you want to keep your distance.
11:25It is a dirty job.
11:26At any rate, I'm amazed at how a boy your age is able to understand what my job is.
11:34Well, I traveled around with my mama a lot, and at that time, no matter how hungry we got, that's the only job mama didn't do.
11:44I see.
11:45What an admirable mama.
11:48But, that's how...
11:52Mama died.
11:55Mama was admirable, but so are you for staying alive.
12:04You are!
12:06You're gonna take from war what war took from you and those kids, right?
12:10Then take every last bit of it!
12:12Rice fields, farms, all of it!
12:17I'll do that.
12:18I'll do that.
12:38Here you go.
12:40Now, eat up, okay?
12:41It'll make you stronger.
12:43So, what if you got one of your legs taken?
12:44You got your voice back, so don't be so quiet!
12:47Say something already!
12:49Come on, you need to eat if you want to use that voice!
12:53Water, water.
12:58Sorry about that.
13:02Hey, uh...
13:04So, tell me...
13:06You're not gonna lose to those demons, are you?
13:08There's no way that you'll turn into one of those...
13:10Those demons, right?
13:15Forget it.
13:16Just...
13:17Eat up!
13:18You need it.
13:19I found a red flower...
13:30I found a red flower...
13:33I found a red flower...
13:37For... her...
13:39Where... shall I...
13:40I'm leaving for work now, but don't let Hyakimaru go back out there, okay?
13:51There's no way his body can hold up.
13:53Yeah, I know that.
13:57That's wicked!
13:59It's built into your arm?
14:01So, I'd like to...
14:03Show you something.
14:04Yeah!
14:10We got them from the battlefield.
14:12Look! This one's pretty nice, isn't it?
14:34Hyakimaru!
15:00What a relief!
15:01Seems as though the rain is coming.
15:02Mio! We're in trouble!
15:05Hyakimaru went after the demon god!
15:07Hyakimaru went after the demon god!
15:09Hyakimaru went after him!
15:11Hyakimaru went after him!
15:32Hyahmaru!
15:33Hyakimaru did you wanna get away?
15:36Hyahimaru went after him...
15:38Oh...
15:41Hyahimaru...
15:43Hyahimaru...
15:44Hyahimaru...
15:45Big bro!
16:10That's it? All that for nothing?
16:15That was wrong. You just left without telling me. You know, Mia was worried about you, too.
16:34Well, the good news is your leg grew back.
16:37What? Is something wrong?
16:40Oh, the temple!
16:44Make certain there are no survivors.
16:52Hmm?
16:53What the hell's this? What the hell's going on?
16:57Just who are you? Are you one of them, too?
17:05This woman came to do her dirty business with my soldiers at our encampment the other day.
17:10And then she was seen entering the Sakai camp last night. She has been disposed of for being a suspected spy.
17:19Mio! Taki!
17:20Taki!
17:23The goat jerk face! How could you?
17:28I see you're upset. Was she a friend of-
17:30Who the hell do you think you are?
17:44Look at the guy's damn arms!
17:45Mio! Mio! Come on, Mio! Taki!
17:50Mio! Mio! Me? Mio! Mio! Mio!
18:06Kill them! Kill them!
18:08Ahhh!
18:12Ahh!
18:14You bastard!
18:17Ahh!
18:21Ahh!
18:23Ahh!
18:24Ahh!
18:27Ahh!
18:29It broke!
18:31Ahh!
18:32Ahh!
18:35Ahh!
18:36Ahh!
18:37Just make sure that whatever comes out of that cave is not a demon itself.
18:50Spare me! Please! I beg you! Please, spare me!
18:59Stop it! No!
19:02No! Don't! You can't turn into a demon!
19:05Please! Please, big bro!
19:11Here, look! Mio had this pouch with her.
19:20It's rice seeds. She really did take it back from the samurai to make her own rice field.
19:27She didn't lose! You can't lose either! Promise me!
19:33Promise me!
19:44Be here.
19:45Here.
20:04Here.
20:05I found a red flower and pulled it. I found a red flower for her.
20:20Where shall I place this crimson treasure?
20:27Nowhere other than in her hair.
20:32Here.
20:33Here.
20:35To 베...
20:35Here.
20:46Here.
