00:00:26,526 --> 00:00:31,656
BAKI-DOU: THE INVINCIBLE SAMURAI

2
00:01:46,731 --> 00:01:48,149
Huh?

3
00:01:48,233 --> 00:01:49,234
What happened?

4
00:01:52,237 --> 00:01:55,406
Point-blank?
He slashed him at point-blank.

5
00:01:55,490 --> 00:01:58,785
I should've known.
He's good with close-range attacks.

6
00:01:59,369 --> 00:02:01,287
The boy could feel it.

7
00:02:01,371 --> 00:02:04,791
He had been cut.
Of course, there was no physical wound.

8
00:02:05,625 --> 00:02:08,795
After all, he wasn't actually cut
by a real sword.

9
00:02:08,878 --> 00:02:10,797
And yet, all the same.

10
00:02:11,381 --> 00:02:12,632
There it is.

11
00:02:12,715 --> 00:02:14,801
As effective as ever.

12
00:02:14,884 --> 00:02:17,345
No matter how hard
he may try to resist it,

13
00:02:17,428 --> 00:02:20,140
Baki was overwhelmed
by the feeling of being cut.

14
00:02:20,223 --> 00:02:24,561
Though he willed his mind to deny it,
his body simply could not ignore it.

15
00:02:24,644 --> 00:02:27,438
I enjoy close quarters as well.

16
00:02:35,405 --> 00:02:36,823
Looks like he's mastered it.

17
00:02:37,615 --> 00:02:40,577
Hmm.

18
00:02:59,804 --> 00:03:01,222
A tackle?

19
00:03:01,306 --> 00:03:02,974
He'll hit him with anything!

20
00:03:03,057 --> 00:03:04,601
A battle is a battle.

21
00:03:04,684 --> 00:03:08,104
That's a move
we haven't seen Musashi use yet.

22
00:03:08,188 --> 00:03:09,522
He's at war.

23
00:03:09,606 --> 00:03:12,358
It's as if we plucked him
from the battlefield.

24
00:03:12,442 --> 00:03:15,361
Skirmishes like that aren't won
with just swords.

25
00:03:15,445 --> 00:03:20,867
Chopping, thrusting,
stabbing, choking, throwing.

26
00:03:20,950 --> 00:03:24,078
To hope that Musashi's diminished
without his sword

27
00:03:24,162 --> 00:03:26,122
is like wishing for a miracle.

28
00:03:37,884 --> 00:03:39,761
It is said the brain emits a signal

29
00:03:39,844 --> 00:03:42,138
half a second before a choice is made.

30
00:03:42,889 --> 00:03:44,974
So if one can catch
their opponent's intention

31
00:03:45,058 --> 00:03:46,392
before they know it…

32
00:03:47,477 --> 00:03:49,812
The battle becomes
about suppressing an action

33
00:03:49,896 --> 00:03:51,648
before it can be started.

34
00:04:10,625 --> 00:04:13,169
Oh… He's leading him on!

35
00:04:17,966 --> 00:04:19,968
There was this time
where one of our classmates

36
00:04:20,051 --> 00:04:21,552
pulled out his chair as a joke.

37
00:04:22,512 --> 00:04:24,305
-He pulled it right out from under him.
-Huh?

38
00:04:26,808 --> 00:04:29,310
Yeah, everyone understood right away.

39
00:04:30,144 --> 00:04:32,063
Huh? Oh.

40
00:04:32,146 --> 00:04:34,315
This guy just had to be training.

41
00:04:35,149 --> 00:04:36,067
CLASSMATE
HAJIME KUBOI

42
00:04:36,150 --> 00:04:40,321
Nah, I didn't say it out loud at the time,
but I was sure of it.

43
00:04:40,863 --> 00:04:44,158
This wasn't the first time either.
I'd noticed his strength before.

44
00:04:44,242 --> 00:04:48,037
Even compared to the big guys
in sports club. Baki has 'em all beat.

45
00:04:50,540 --> 00:04:53,501
-He's so strong!
-How do you fight that?!

46
00:04:53,584 --> 00:04:55,128
He's on a whole different level!

47
00:04:55,211 --> 00:04:58,756
It's no wonder.
I likely would've fallen for the bait too.

48
00:04:58,840 --> 00:05:01,843
If the brain signals the intention
before they know it,

49
00:05:02,343 --> 00:05:05,346
then Baki should have been able
to stop his next move.

50
00:05:05,430 --> 00:05:09,684
But by the time that Baki got to him,
Musashi was already ahead.

51
00:05:09,767 --> 00:05:11,394
It's an intense mental battle.

52
00:05:11,477 --> 00:05:13,771
Each desperately trying
to outpace the other.

53
00:05:13,855 --> 00:05:18,026
I thought I'd understood it,
but this is something else entirely.

54
00:05:18,109 --> 00:05:20,236
Musashi isn't trying to outpace him.

55
00:05:20,320 --> 00:05:23,531
He's deliberately sending false signals
to bait him.

56
00:05:23,614 --> 00:05:26,367
One singular contact decided the match.

57
00:05:26,451 --> 00:05:29,037
An era where defeat meant certain death.

58
00:05:29,120 --> 00:05:31,664
For the trained practitioners
of that time,

59
00:05:31,748 --> 00:05:36,044
these skills of heightened perception
were probably taken for granted.

60
00:05:38,379 --> 00:05:40,548
Then he'll never win. How could he?

61
00:05:41,591 --> 00:05:44,552
-Is that what you think?
-Huh?

62
00:05:44,635 --> 00:05:47,096
He's facing the real Musashi Miyamoto,

63
00:05:47,180 --> 00:05:48,890
a veritable god of war,

64
00:05:48,973 --> 00:05:51,684
revered by modern martial artists
all over the world.

65
00:05:51,768 --> 00:05:53,186
Is this where we'll see it?

66
00:05:53,269 --> 00:05:56,689
See the greatest masterpiece
of modern martial arts fall to defeat?

67
00:05:59,275 --> 00:06:02,278
On the morning of the day
that Izo squared off against Musashi,

68
00:06:02,362 --> 00:06:04,280
I visited him at his residence.

69
00:06:04,781 --> 00:06:08,242
The conversation turned
to the topic of daily training volume,

70
00:06:08,743 --> 00:06:11,704
which is when Motobe decided
to drop this cheeky line.

71
00:06:12,288 --> 00:06:15,958
A few times a day,
my heart strays from martial arts.

72
00:06:16,042 --> 00:06:17,919
He's at his craft all day.

73
00:06:18,002 --> 00:06:20,713
Whether walking, standing,
sitting, or lying down.

74
00:06:20,797 --> 00:06:22,298
Which then made me wonder

75
00:06:22,382 --> 00:06:24,926
if I have that much love
for the martial arts.

76
00:06:25,426 --> 00:06:27,845
And what about my master, Mikoshiba?

77
00:06:27,929 --> 00:06:30,848
Or the founder of Aiki, Sokaku Takeda?

78
00:06:31,432 --> 00:06:36,979
Motobe, I'd like to know.
Where did you learn this discipline? Hmm?

79
00:06:37,647 --> 00:06:40,858
Let even my walking
be a form of martial arts.

80
00:06:40,942 --> 00:06:44,487
I once believed that I lived my life
by that precept, but…

81
00:06:45,071 --> 00:06:45,988
"But"?

82
00:06:46,072 --> 00:06:49,826
A certain someone flipped
my view of training on its head.

83
00:06:50,326 --> 00:06:53,413
It's someone
you're rather well acquainted with.

84
00:06:55,581 --> 00:06:57,375
It's Baki Hanma.

85
00:06:57,458 --> 00:06:58,876
Hm?

86
00:06:58,960 --> 00:07:01,879
He lives in it, in every moment.

87
00:07:01,963 --> 00:07:05,842
Whether he's striving or enduring,
he manages to make everything fun.

88
00:07:05,925 --> 00:07:07,260
He's at play.

89
00:07:07,343 --> 00:07:10,513
He spends all day playing around
with his martial arts.

90
00:07:10,596 --> 00:07:12,265
And that's his strength.

91
00:07:13,057 --> 00:07:15,017
That's what makes him unbeatable.

92
00:07:15,101 --> 00:07:17,562
No matter how much effort
one might put in,

93
00:07:17,645 --> 00:07:20,022
they'll never defeat someone
who enjoys it.

94
00:07:21,357 --> 00:07:22,900
Hey, boy!

95
00:07:22,984 --> 00:07:26,529
What do you hope to accomplish
by giving a samurai a sword?

96
00:07:30,658 --> 00:07:32,285
I wanna copy you.

97
00:07:32,368 --> 00:07:34,412
What will copying me accomplish?

98
00:07:34,495 --> 00:07:36,914
I'll put us on even footing.

99
00:07:38,499 --> 00:07:41,919
Yes, but I can still cut,
even without a sword.

100
00:07:42,003 --> 00:07:44,839
But if I slaughter you
before you pull a blade,

101
00:07:44,922 --> 00:07:46,174
that wouldn't look good.

102
00:07:46,257 --> 00:07:48,676
Did he say slaughter?

103
00:07:48,759 --> 00:07:50,344
Slaughter?

104
00:07:50,428 --> 00:07:53,181
Are you sure
you're not losing your mind, boy?

105
00:07:53,264 --> 00:07:55,433
Just who's gonna slaughter who?

106
00:07:55,516 --> 00:07:59,187
It ends here.
Time to say your goodbyes, Musashi.

107
00:07:59,270 --> 00:08:03,191
There will be a slaughter,
but I will be the one left standing.

108
00:08:04,275 --> 00:08:06,903
I'll continue to cut my way to the top.

109
00:08:06,986 --> 00:08:09,155
I'll slash, slash, slash my way up!

110
00:08:09,238 --> 00:08:11,949
And then I'll look down on this country
from the summit!

111
00:08:12,533 --> 00:08:13,701
You're a liar.

112
00:08:14,577 --> 00:08:18,539
You can't cut your way to the top here,
and you know it.

113
00:08:18,623 --> 00:08:20,458
You've known it all along.

114
00:08:21,417 --> 00:08:24,462
Musashi, you don't belong here.

115
00:08:26,047 --> 00:08:27,840
The way he's holding it!

116
00:08:27,924 --> 00:08:29,717
That's Musashi's grip!

117
00:08:34,305 --> 00:08:37,099
-He's throwing it?
-That'll never work!

118
00:08:39,060 --> 00:08:41,729
-He caught it with his bare hand!
-Unbelievable!

119
00:08:41,812 --> 00:08:45,066
You arrogant fool.
You played right into it.

120
00:08:45,149 --> 00:08:46,609
I knew you would catch it.

121
00:08:46,692 --> 00:08:51,113
And that when you did,
both of your hands would be occupied.

122
00:08:59,205 --> 00:09:00,748
Hello, again.

123
00:09:02,416 --> 00:09:03,793
Well, now.

124
00:09:08,172 --> 00:09:11,008
The boy couldn't help
but draw the comparison.

125
00:09:11,717 --> 00:09:16,681
The martial arts battles of the modern era
can be repeated numerous times.

126
00:09:16,764 --> 00:09:19,559
Whereas on the other hand,
during the age of the samurai,

127
00:09:19,642 --> 00:09:21,686
a match meant life or death.

128
00:09:21,769 --> 00:09:24,146
It's a simple inscrutable fact.

129
00:09:24,647 --> 00:09:28,734
There is no comparison in terms
of the severity of the consequences.

130
00:09:28,818 --> 00:09:32,154
There are no higher stakes
in a battle than death.

131
00:09:32,738 --> 00:09:36,325
That being said,
he also realized something else.

132
00:09:38,202 --> 00:09:41,539
Opponents might suffer
a ten-second knockout after a strike,

133
00:09:41,622 --> 00:09:44,542
or they might tap-out after a joint lock.

134
00:09:45,251 --> 00:09:47,545
Others pass out from being choked.

135
00:09:48,129 --> 00:09:49,547
Do you understand?

136
00:09:49,630 --> 00:09:51,591
In any of these outcomes,

137
00:09:51,674 --> 00:09:54,927
the winner holds the power
to grant or take life at will.

138
00:09:55,803 --> 00:09:57,430
Baki understood.

139
00:09:57,513 --> 00:10:00,933
Modern martial artists
are capable of taking life.

140
00:10:01,017 --> 00:10:04,687
But the practitioners have chosen
not to follow that path.

141
00:10:05,605 --> 00:10:06,939
All right, then.

142
00:10:07,523 --> 00:10:08,691
Yoo-hoo.

143
00:10:08,774 --> 00:10:10,526
Wakey, wakey.

144
00:10:17,199 --> 00:10:18,200
Musashi.

145
00:10:19,118 --> 00:10:20,453
It's time to end this.

146
00:10:28,377 --> 00:10:29,962
I dropped both of them.

147
00:10:30,588 --> 00:10:32,465
Both swords left my hands.

148
00:10:35,176 --> 00:10:39,096
Things that can be held
can also be dropped.

149
00:10:39,180 --> 00:10:42,350
If you hadn't dropped them,
I'd probably be in pieces.

150
00:10:42,933 --> 00:10:45,645
And now you're trying to feed me modesty?

151
00:10:46,896 --> 00:10:48,356
Let's not put this off.

152
00:10:49,857 --> 00:10:51,484
Time to go back to the grave.

153
00:10:52,234 --> 00:10:53,235
Now.

154
00:10:53,319 --> 00:10:58,240
Back to the grave? By you?
And with that sword?

155
00:10:58,324 --> 00:11:00,242
You must be joking.

156
00:11:04,121 --> 00:11:06,499
What? You don't think
I know how to use a sword?

157
00:11:24,100 --> 00:11:25,601
You're still an amateur,

158
00:11:25,685 --> 00:11:29,021
but you seem to understand
the basic concept well enough.

159
00:11:29,605 --> 00:11:31,524
Even an amateur can cut.

160
00:11:31,607 --> 00:11:34,777
Swords cut, and they slaughter.

161
00:11:34,860 --> 00:11:36,779
Is he going to cut him down?

162
00:11:38,864 --> 00:11:41,075
Is he really gonna do it?

163
00:11:41,158 --> 00:11:42,243
Oh…

164
00:11:42,868 --> 00:11:44,787
You've seen it for yourself.

165
00:11:46,163 --> 00:11:49,667
You can drop a sword
like an iron club to a demon.

166
00:11:50,376 --> 00:11:52,420
It's a saying
that's meant to be reassuring.

167
00:11:53,212 --> 00:11:56,424
After all, the demon and the iron club
are separate entities.

168
00:11:56,507 --> 00:11:59,176
The demon can't always be wielding it.

169
00:12:00,511 --> 00:12:02,805
But a sword that can never be dropped?

170
00:12:02,888 --> 00:12:06,058
That's what I want,
a sword that I can never let go of.

171
00:12:07,643 --> 00:12:12,064
I can put up with loneliness,
but parting with a sword is misery.

172
00:12:15,985 --> 00:12:17,820
The swordless blade.

173
00:12:19,405 --> 00:12:21,073
He who fights barehanded.

174
00:12:21,657 --> 00:12:24,785
It's something you modern fighters
had already understood.

175
00:12:26,287 --> 00:12:28,956
Each of your bodies
has been forged into a weapon.

176
00:12:31,292 --> 00:12:33,711
And the body cannot be let go of.

177
00:12:34,587 --> 00:12:38,215
The way of the sword,
or rather, the way of the swordless blade.

178
00:12:38,883 --> 00:12:40,342
Where, in the end,

179
00:12:40,426 --> 00:12:44,346
the follower cannot recognize
the purpose of the original tool.

180
00:12:48,309 --> 00:12:50,561
That is the path I walk.

181
00:12:51,437 --> 00:12:52,855
Well…

182
00:12:52,938 --> 00:12:53,981
Aah…

183
00:12:54,064 --> 00:12:55,441
Boy, this is awkward.

184
00:12:56,442 --> 00:12:58,319
I know you're still kinda at it.

185
00:12:58,402 --> 00:13:00,279
Like there's still more to learn,

186
00:13:00,362 --> 00:13:03,491
but do you mind doing it over there?

187
00:13:04,408 --> 00:13:05,493
Over there?

188
00:13:05,576 --> 00:13:08,913
Yeah, you know,
like where you were before this.

189
00:13:08,996 --> 00:13:11,624
Where you were, you know,
drifting along or whatever.

190
00:13:11,707 --> 00:13:14,001
Not this world. That one.

191
00:13:16,170 --> 00:13:17,254
Okey-dokey, then.

192
00:13:19,381 --> 00:13:20,382
Here I come.

193
00:13:33,229 --> 00:13:36,899
That was easier than I thought,
but then you do always catch it.

194
00:13:54,458 --> 00:13:56,335
Mm! Aaah!

195
00:14:03,092 --> 00:14:06,303
Who's that?

196
00:14:06,387 --> 00:14:08,973
-What the?
-With deepest reverence and respect,

197
00:14:09,056 --> 00:14:12,017
I bow before you
and declare my words in awe.

198
00:14:12,101 --> 00:14:15,229
Hear my plea
and take now the soul of Musashi Miyamoto.

199
00:14:15,312 --> 00:14:16,272
Some old lady?

200
00:14:16,355 --> 00:14:20,818
May his spirit walk with you once more
as he returns to whence he came.

201
00:14:20,901 --> 00:14:22,528
To the great beyond.

202
00:14:22,611 --> 00:14:27,032
Through the power of my sacred vow,
may this humble request be fulfilled.

203
00:14:27,116 --> 00:14:30,369
I petition thee
with reverence and respect.

204
00:14:30,452 --> 00:14:32,037
So let it be done.

205
00:14:45,885 --> 00:14:48,095
-Huh?!
-Do you see that?!

206
00:14:54,560 --> 00:14:55,561
He's dead?!

207
00:14:55,936 --> 00:14:57,313
METROPOLITAN POLICE
TOYOKAZU HINO

208
00:14:57,396 --> 00:15:00,816
And he wasn't defeated? He just died?

209
00:15:00,900 --> 00:15:03,569
I'm as confused by the report as you are.

210
00:15:03,652 --> 00:15:05,029
Our men on the inside…

211
00:15:05,112 --> 00:15:06,322
DEPUTY INSPECTOR
HISASHI MABUCHI

212
00:15:06,405 --> 00:15:09,325
…they all said that they witnessed
his soul leaving his body, sir.

213
00:15:10,701 --> 00:15:14,330
His soul has left his body,
well, that's great.

214
00:15:14,413 --> 00:15:18,542
But now what am I supposed to do
with a thousand officers?!

215
00:15:18,626 --> 00:15:20,336
Well, sir. I, uh…

216
00:15:32,765 --> 00:15:34,099
Sabuko.

217
00:15:35,100 --> 00:15:36,769
Thank you for your help.

218
00:15:36,852 --> 00:15:38,312
Too little, too late.

219
00:15:38,395 --> 00:15:40,105
I was a reckless fool,

220
00:15:40,189 --> 00:15:43,359
calling the spirit of Musashi
into that body.

221
00:15:43,943 --> 00:15:46,487
Then it became a reality,
and everything changed.

222
00:15:46,570 --> 00:15:50,699
Some things are destined to happen,
while others never occur at all.

223
00:15:50,783 --> 00:15:54,203
I should have been able
to conceive of the consequences.

224
00:15:54,286 --> 00:15:56,872
But there was little
that could convince me to stop.

225
00:15:56,956 --> 00:16:00,125
In the end,
we unleashed a ferocious monster

226
00:16:00,209 --> 00:16:01,877
and set it loose on the city.

227
00:16:01,961 --> 00:16:04,129
Somehow, I always knew it would happen,

228
00:16:04,213 --> 00:16:06,382
but I could not cast aside my curiosity.

229
00:16:08,467 --> 00:16:12,262
Both I and this failure
have committed a grave sin.

230
00:16:12,972 --> 00:16:16,266
An act that deserves a thousand deaths.

231
00:16:16,350 --> 00:16:20,771
If I'm honest, everyone was afraid of him,
but we expected a lot too.

232
00:16:21,605 --> 00:16:23,732
Couldn't help but feel provoked.

233
00:16:23,816 --> 00:16:26,777
And then, of course,
there's that curiosity. We had to know.

234
00:16:27,695 --> 00:16:29,905
See the power of his sword.

235
00:16:29,989 --> 00:16:31,281
Its sharpness.

236
00:16:31,365 --> 00:16:32,700
To challenge it.

237
00:16:33,367 --> 00:16:36,787
So even for his bloody rampage,
in some way,

238
00:16:36,870 --> 00:16:38,789
we're all guilty.

239
00:16:39,373 --> 00:16:42,418
The nation took action
the only way it knew how,

240
00:16:42,501 --> 00:16:46,046
and Musashi had no choice
but to respond in his own way.

241
00:16:53,762 --> 00:16:55,431
To everyone present,

242
00:16:55,514 --> 00:16:57,808
this is no funeral procession.

243
00:16:57,891 --> 00:17:01,937
It's a glorious send-off,
celebrating history's greatest swordsman!

244
00:17:02,021 --> 00:17:03,814
Don't bow your heads in prayer,

245
00:17:03,897 --> 00:17:06,942
but lift them high in salute
to an honorable warrior

246
00:17:07,735 --> 00:17:11,447
and offer him a send-off
befitting of so fine a soldier.

247
00:17:19,872 --> 00:17:23,459
Pulse, respiration
blood pressure, and body temperature.

248
00:17:24,043 --> 00:17:25,711
All within normal levels.

249
00:17:25,794 --> 00:17:30,090
And, as you can plainly see,
there is no trace of brainwave activity.

250
00:17:30,174 --> 00:17:32,843
So then, he's returned.

251
00:17:32,926 --> 00:17:36,096
Yes, that's right. Back to his time.

252
00:17:36,680 --> 00:17:39,099
Musashi has returned to where he belongs.

253
00:17:39,183 --> 00:17:42,102
Will the vessel survive, Nonomura?

254
00:17:42,186 --> 00:17:46,732
You have me on the job.
I've already devised a plan to stop time.

255
00:17:55,574 --> 00:17:57,826
What is this stuff?

256
00:17:57,910 --> 00:17:59,745
It's pure liquid nitrogen.

257
00:17:59,828 --> 00:18:03,207
But isn't that usually
minus a hundred-something degrees?

258
00:18:03,290 --> 00:18:06,376
Yes, but I'm keeping it stable
around zero degrees,

259
00:18:06,460 --> 00:18:08,504
but will begin lowering
the temperature gradually.

260
00:18:08,587 --> 00:18:11,632
0.5 degrees every six hours,
to be precise.

261
00:18:11,715 --> 00:18:16,136
It should take six weeks to reach
the final temperature of -196 degrees

262
00:18:16,220 --> 00:18:18,430
using our ultra-slow cooling method.

263
00:18:18,514 --> 00:18:22,017
But won't freezing the body
destroy all his cells?

264
00:18:22,101 --> 00:18:24,686
We have the finest team
of scientists in the world.

265
00:18:24,770 --> 00:18:27,523
We solved that problem two years ago.

266
00:18:28,357 --> 00:18:30,651
You see the tube inserted in his mouth?

267
00:18:30,734 --> 00:18:32,611
It hasn't been officially announced yet,

268
00:18:32,694 --> 00:18:35,364
but it's a new pharmaceutical agent
we've developed.

269
00:18:36,115 --> 00:18:39,493
He's being fed a steady stream
at 0.9 milliliters a minute.

270
00:18:39,576 --> 00:18:42,538
Slowly, the fluid makes its way
down his throat

271
00:18:42,621 --> 00:18:45,499
and is swallowed and ingested
through normal digestive processes.

272
00:18:45,582 --> 00:18:47,417
That drip becomes 20 liters

273
00:18:47,501 --> 00:18:50,796
as, over 15 days,
he'll consume 20,000 milliliters.

274
00:18:50,879 --> 00:18:53,507
It is this method
that allows the preservation liquid

275
00:18:53,590 --> 00:18:56,051
to permeate the cell
even at the nano level.

276
00:18:56,135 --> 00:18:59,555
Put simply,
it's like antifreeze for flesh.

277
00:18:59,638 --> 00:19:03,559
Antifreeze? And it actually protects
the cells from frost?

278
00:19:03,642 --> 00:19:07,563
In the name of science,
our team's work will never be complete.

279
00:19:07,646 --> 00:19:11,066
Will that also keep the blood
from freezing too?

280
00:19:11,150 --> 00:19:13,527
Do you see the tube
connected to his thigh?

281
00:19:13,610 --> 00:19:16,446
That's a direct conduit
to his aorta and vena cava.

282
00:19:16,530 --> 00:19:19,575
Adding the fluid to his circulatory system
is also going smoothly.

283
00:19:19,658 --> 00:19:23,537
In less than77 hours,
the antifreeze will fill all his vessels,

284
00:19:23,620 --> 00:19:26,081
making the process complete
by early next week.

285
00:19:26,165 --> 00:19:27,708
Mm.

286
00:19:27,791 --> 00:19:30,169
Thank you, Mr. Nonomura.

287
00:19:30,252 --> 00:19:32,212
And thank you, everyone.

288
00:19:34,298 --> 00:19:36,258
Musashi may have broken our laws,

289
00:19:36,341 --> 00:19:38,969
but can the present really
bring charges against him?

290
00:19:39,052 --> 00:19:40,971
These musings are irrelevant.

291
00:19:41,054 --> 00:19:43,223
How could you not preserve him?

292
00:19:43,307 --> 00:19:45,851
Someone as scientifically valuable
as this?!

293
00:19:47,769 --> 00:19:50,314
Musashi will remain!

294
00:19:58,780 --> 00:20:01,992
We've employed
a liquid nitrogen preservation method.

295
00:20:02,075 --> 00:20:04,286
The process began five days ago.

296
00:20:04,369 --> 00:20:07,956
The temperature's being lowered
at a rate of 2 degrees Celsius a day.

297
00:20:08,040 --> 00:20:09,208
Now at day five,

298
00:20:09,291 --> 00:20:11,919
the temperature of the liquid
is -10 degrees Celsius.

299
00:20:12,002 --> 00:20:13,629
It'll take a total of five weeks

300
00:20:13,712 --> 00:20:17,716
to reach the final temperature
of -196 degrees Celsius.

301
00:20:24,806 --> 00:20:27,226
You all serve as witnesses.

302
00:20:27,809 --> 00:20:29,728
Musashi will remain.

303
00:20:29,811 --> 00:20:31,730
Why preserve him?

304
00:20:32,314 --> 00:20:35,484
Unless you intend to try
and bring him back again someday?

305
00:20:35,567 --> 00:20:36,610
Is that it?

306
00:20:36,693 --> 00:20:39,196
I don't think you get it, Kureha.

307
00:20:39,279 --> 00:20:42,699
So then he'll just stay preserved
like this forever?

308
00:20:43,492 --> 00:20:46,203
Does anyone assembled here
have a problem with that?

309
00:20:46,286 --> 00:20:49,456
It's not so much a problem
as it is a concern.

310
00:20:51,291 --> 00:20:55,170
Come on, Tokugawa.
You're the one who started all this.

311
00:20:55,254 --> 00:20:56,713
Just promise me

312
00:20:56,797 --> 00:21:00,467
you're not keeping him
for ulterior motives.

313
00:21:03,553 --> 00:21:05,973
Let me ask you this.

314
00:21:06,056 --> 00:21:09,101
Is the Musashi Miyamoto
here with us now alive?

315
00:21:09,184 --> 00:21:11,144
Of course he cannot be called alive.

316
00:21:11,228 --> 00:21:14,231
But then is he dead?
That is not entirely accurate either.

317
00:21:14,815 --> 00:21:16,858
We've stopped the flow of time.

318
00:21:16,942 --> 00:21:20,862
This is Musashi Miyamoto
in his most perfect form.

319
00:21:20,946 --> 00:21:25,117
Could cremating him and interring him
even be considered proper rites?

320
00:21:27,703 --> 00:21:29,871
I'm not willing to accept that.

321
00:21:29,955 --> 00:21:34,126
Musashi has set out on a journey,
but he is always welcome to come back!

322
00:21:34,209 --> 00:21:37,629
So I will look after his home,
should he return!

323
00:21:40,215 --> 00:21:43,552
That is what it means
to offer sincere devotion to the departed.

324
00:21:43,635 --> 00:21:46,305
Even if he never
crosses that threshold again,

325
00:21:46,388 --> 00:21:48,515
his home will always be there for him.

326
00:21:49,516 --> 00:21:52,102
The most powerful swordsman
the world has ever known

327
00:21:52,185 --> 00:21:53,520
deserves nothing less.

328
00:22:16,418 --> 00:22:19,212
THE END
