01:00.199 --> 01:02.159
<i>In the next five days...</i>

01:02.618 --> 01:04.412
<i>Muzan will come.</i>

01:10.793 --> 01:13.337
<i>Use me as bait...</i>

01:14.255 --> 01:17.049
<i>and cut off Muzan's head.</i>

01:20.803 --> 01:24.765
<i>What makes you think that?</i>

01:27.685 --> 01:29.019
<i>Just my intuition.</i>

01:29.020 --> 01:30.563
<i>That's all.</i>

01:31.188 --> 01:32.940
<i>No reason.</i>

01:33.482 --> 01:36.903
<i>The other children... won't agree...</i>

01:37.028 --> 01:43.910
<i>to using me as bait.</i>

01:44.785 --> 01:47.704
<i>You're the only one that I can ask...</i>

01:47.705 --> 01:49.290
<i>Gyomei.</i>

01:51.334 --> 01:54.670
<i>Even if you behead him, he won't die.</i>

01:56.756 --> 01:59.800
<i>The only thing that can destroy Muzan...</i>

02:00.259 --> 02:03.930
<i>is most likely sunlight.</i>

02:04.931 --> 02:07.724
<i>If he doesn't die even after
you've destroyed his head...</i>

02:07.725 --> 02:10.144
<i>you'll be in...</i>

02:10.728 --> 02:14.357
<i>for a drawn-out battle
until the sun rises.</i>

02:15.816 --> 02:16.943
<i>Understood.</i>

02:18.444 --> 02:21.405
<i>If that is your wish, Master.</i>

02:24.825 --> 02:26.369
<i>Thank you.</i>

02:32.208 --> 02:33.626
<i>Please...</i>

02:34.001 --> 02:35.962
<i>don't let any more...</i>

02:36.295 --> 02:39.340
<i>of my precious children die.</i>

02:39.715 --> 02:42.677
<i>That is my wish.</i>

03:00.861 --> 03:04.448
So, you think you've
driven me into a corner?

03:06.242 --> 03:09.661
You're all about to go straight to Hell!

03:09.662 --> 03:11.997
You eyesore Demon Slayers!

03:11.998 --> 03:14.917
Tonight, I'm going to massacre
every one of you!

03:19.964 --> 03:22.425
You're the one who's going to Hell, Muzan!

03:22.758 --> 03:24.593
You're not getting away, no matter what!

03:25.511 --> 03:27.387
Do it, then!

03:27.388 --> 03:29.432
Let's see you try...

03:29.807 --> 03:32.101
Tanjiro Kamado!

03:34.687 --> 03:36.397
I'll absolutely defeat you...

03:37.940 --> 03:40.526
Muzan Kibutsuji!

03:52.079 --> 03:53.247
<i>What is this place?</i>

03:54.498 --> 03:56.834
<i>Horizontally, vertically,
it's all messed up!</i>

03:57.668 --> 03:59.627
KILL
<i>Was it built...</i>

03:59.628 --> 04:01.422
<i>with an enemy's Blood Demon Art?</i>

04:04.175 --> 04:06.427
<i>I don't know
what's going on around me...</i>

04:06.761 --> 04:09.180
<i>but I know Ms. Tamayo
was holding Muzan down!</i>

04:10.556 --> 04:11.557
<i>But...</i>

04:12.099 --> 04:13.893
<i>who knows how long she can last?</i>

04:16.645 --> 04:18.314
Calm down, Kanroji!

04:18.981 --> 04:20.316
R-Right!

04:20.691 --> 04:21.817
Stay with me!

05:16.956 --> 05:20.251
<i>I've got to reach Muzan
as soon as possible and defeat him!</i>

05:21.252 --> 05:22.670
<i>As soon as possible!</i>

05:30.928 --> 05:31.971
<i>That's the bottom!</i>

05:32.638 --> 05:34.473
<i>I'll be killed if I smash into it!</i>

05:34.849 --> 05:38.977
<i>I'll use a move to change my trajectory
and find something to grab onto!</i>

05:38.978 --> 05:40.271
DESTROY

05:42.565 --> 05:43.898
<i>I'm off-balance!</i>

05:43.899 --> 05:47.236
<i>The pressure of the fall
is keeping me from exerting myself!</i>

05:49.530 --> 05:50.531
DESTROYER
OF DEMONS

06:11.760 --> 06:12.928
Mr. Gi--

06:35.868 --> 06:37.077
Are you all right?

06:38.954 --> 06:39.954
Yes!

06:39.955 --> 06:41.540
Thank you very much!

06:43.375 --> 06:44.585
You saved me--

06:46.712 --> 06:47.795
<i>Water Breathing...</i>

06:47.796 --> 06:49.048
<i>First Form...</i>

06:49.423 --> 06:51.258
<i>Water Surface Slash!</i>

06:53.135 --> 06:54.178
Tanjiro!

07:16.450 --> 07:17.868
<i>- Water Breathing...
- Water Breathing...</i>

07:18.327 --> 07:19.619
<i>Sixth Form...</i>

07:19.620 --> 07:20.871
<i>Third Form...</i>

07:22.831 --> 07:24.374
<i>Whirlpool!</i>

07:24.375 --> 07:25.876
<i>Flowing Dance!</i>

07:33.842 --> 07:36.178
<i>Mr. Giyu's too amazing.</i>

07:36.553 --> 07:39.555
<i>He can tell from my slightest movement
which move I'm going to use.</i>

07:39.556 --> 07:44.061
<i>Then he unleashes his own in a way
that keeps us from slashing each other.</i>

07:44.395 --> 07:46.438
<i>He's unbelievable!</i>

07:46.855 --> 07:49.024
<i>What's going on in his mind right now?</i>

07:51.777 --> 07:53.112
This must be...

07:53.612 --> 07:57.449
that demon base Shinazugawa
and Iguro mentioned.

08:00.619 --> 08:01.953
Meaning that...

08:01.954 --> 08:05.039
Kibutsuji must've gathered us all here...

08:05.040 --> 08:08.043
to wipe out the Hashira
and the Demon Slayer Corps.

08:09.461 --> 08:13.590
From here on in,
we'll need to be even more vigilant.

08:14.133 --> 08:15.467
Right!

08:17.136 --> 08:18.846
- Let's go.
- Right!

08:41.452 --> 08:42.702
<i>Serpent Breathing...</i>

08:42.703 --> 08:44.121
<i>Fifth Form...</i>

08:51.337 --> 08:53.130
<i>Slithering Serpent!</i>

08:56.050 --> 08:58.177
Stay away from Kanroji...

08:58.594 --> 08:59.803
you scums!

09:01.638 --> 09:03.932
<i>Mr. Iguro, you're so wonderful!</i>

09:05.059 --> 09:07.101
- Are you hurt?
- Not at all!

09:07.102 --> 09:08.896
- Come on, then.
- Right!

09:29.583 --> 09:30.626
Tokito!

09:37.925 --> 09:40.259
That's a huge horde of demons.

09:40.260 --> 09:43.555
Looks like they've been given
Lower Rank-level powers.

09:43.931 --> 09:47.309
They're being used to try
and wear us down.

09:52.981 --> 09:54.691
What about the Master?

09:55.317 --> 09:57.611
He went on ahead of us.

09:58.779 --> 10:01.073
It was a noble end.

10:02.449 --> 10:03.659
The Master...

10:04.076 --> 10:07.913
would never make a mistake
like allowing a demon to find him.

10:08.288 --> 10:09.957
Did he use himself as bait?

10:10.958 --> 10:12.126
That's right.

10:12.584 --> 10:15.671
Because he didn't
have much longer to live.

10:22.052 --> 10:23.512
Master...

10:30.477 --> 10:32.228
When I was hovering...

10:32.229 --> 10:34.313
between life and death...

10:34.314 --> 10:36.525
after a demon attack...

10:37.526 --> 10:39.820
the Master was there for me
the whole time.

10:41.989 --> 10:44.408
He did the same for every Corps member...

10:44.741 --> 10:46.785
in their final moments.

10:48.954 --> 10:50.664
Like a father.

10:52.624 --> 10:55.002
Yes. I know.

10:55.836 --> 10:58.045
Muzan not only took my brother from me...

10:58.046 --> 11:00.507
but our father, as well.

11:01.383 --> 11:02.593
Damn him...

11:02.926 --> 11:04.011
Muzan!

11:04.636 --> 11:06.929
I'm going to torture him to death!

11:06.930 --> 11:09.308
I'll show him what Hell looks like!

11:09.933 --> 11:11.435
Don't worry.

11:16.064 --> 11:19.109
We all feel the same way.

11:25.991 --> 11:27.493
<i>Master...</i>

11:29.995 --> 11:31.747
<i>I couldn't protect you.</i>

11:47.429 --> 11:50.557
There's no end to you lowlifes.

11:53.810 --> 11:55.895
Show me what you've got!

11:55.896 --> 11:58.649
I'll kill every last one of you!

12:07.741 --> 12:08.909
Comin'...

12:09.284 --> 12:10.619
through!

12:13.664 --> 12:15.916
More falling, huh?

12:17.417 --> 12:20.504
I ended up in this crazy place
without any warning...

12:21.088 --> 12:24.675
but there's a whole boatload of demons,
so it's the perfect place...

12:25.509 --> 12:27.719
to test the results of my training!

12:38.021 --> 12:39.689
<i>What is this place?</i>

12:39.690 --> 12:42.234
<i>Is it the demon headquarters?
Where are the others?</i>

12:43.026 --> 12:44.236
<i>Big Brother...</i>

12:45.487 --> 12:47.739
<i>Please be safe, too, Big Brother!</i>

12:52.494 --> 12:54.204
<i>I just heard a sound.</i>

12:54.871 --> 12:56.957
<i>He might be somewhere nearby!</i>

13:02.671 --> 13:04.548
I'll never forgive him!

13:05.924 --> 13:07.050
No way...

13:07.342 --> 13:09.553
am I ever going to forgive him!

13:33.994 --> 13:35.996
<i>It smells like blood.</i>

13:44.755 --> 13:46.340
<i>What is this place?</i>

14:05.609 --> 14:07.778
Oh my, is someone here?

14:08.612 --> 14:10.989
Wow, and you're a girl!

14:11.865 --> 14:15.243
You look so young and tasty!

14:16.078 --> 14:19.956
I'll have to thank Nakime for this later.

14:35.180 --> 14:36.640
<i>Shinobu...</i>

14:38.016 --> 14:40.352
<i>Leave the Demon Slayer Corps.</i>

14:41.895 --> 14:44.856
<i>I know you're trying hard.</i>

14:45.273 --> 14:48.026
<i>You're really giving it your all...</i>

14:48.902 --> 14:51.780
<i>but Shinobu, you'll probably...</i>

14:57.035 --> 15:00.872
<i>I want you to be happy
like any normal girl...</i>

15:01.623 --> 15:04.710
<i>and live on until you're elderly.</i>

15:06.712 --> 15:07.838
<i>You've already...</i>

15:08.213 --> 15:09.547
<i>done enough.</i>

15:09.548 --> 15:10.756
<i>No!</i>

15:10.757 --> 15:12.425
<i>No way am I quitting!</i>

15:12.426 --> 15:15.052
<i>I'm going to avenge you
if it's the last thing I do!</i>

15:15.053 --> 15:16.470
<i>Tell me!</i>

15:16.471 --> 15:17.805
<i>What did the demon look like?</i>

15:17.806 --> 15:20.142
<i>Which bastard got you?</i>

15:20.517 --> 15:22.518
<i>Tell me, Big Sister!</i>

15:22.519 --> 15:24.478
<i>Please!</i>

15:24.479 --> 15:28.692
<i>I could never live a normal life
after someone did this to you!</i>

15:29.192 --> 15:30.527
<i>Big Sister!</i>

15:34.990 --> 15:36.533
<i>It was a demon...</i>

15:36.908 --> 15:39.786
<i>who looked like he had
blood poured on his head.</i>

15:41.329 --> 15:42.664
Well, well...

15:42.998 --> 15:44.499
nice to meet you!

15:44.833 --> 15:47.210
My name is Doma.

15:47.669 --> 15:51.047
What a wonderful night.

15:52.257 --> 15:55.051
<i>With a carefree smile on his face...</i>

15:55.844 --> 15:59.556
<i>he speaks in a serene, gentle manner.</i>

16:01.433 --> 16:03.851
H-Help me...

16:03.852 --> 16:04.936
Please help me!

16:05.437 --> 16:07.146
Shh!

16:07.147 --> 16:09.024
Can't you see that I'm talking?

16:14.237 --> 16:15.947
Are you okay?

16:16.323 --> 16:18.616
Wow! You're fast!

16:18.617 --> 16:20.410
Are you a Hashira?

16:29.127 --> 16:30.878
Oh, don't worry!

16:30.879 --> 16:33.172
You can just leave her there.

16:33.173 --> 16:35.633
I'll be sure to eat her later.

16:35.634 --> 16:36.968
Upsy-daisy.

16:38.762 --> 16:40.013
<i>The weapons...</i>

16:40.722 --> 16:42.390
<i>that demon wielded...</i>

16:42.974 --> 16:45.644
<i>were a pair of sharp fans.</i>

16:48.522 --> 16:52.442
I'm the founder
of the Eternal Paradise Faith.

16:52.818 --> 16:56.321
My job is to attain bliss
with all of my worshippers.

16:56.738 --> 16:59.616
So, I'll be sure to pick
that girl clean, too.

17:00.909 --> 17:02.660
<i>This guy...</i>

17:02.661 --> 17:05.497
<i>is the demon who killed my big sister.</i>

17:06.581 --> 17:08.582
Everyone's bliss?

17:08.583 --> 17:10.252
How deluded are you?

17:10.669 --> 17:14.046
This girl was unwilling
and crying out for help.

17:14.047 --> 17:16.550
And isn't that why I saved her?

17:16.842 --> 17:19.760
That girl's no longer suffering.

17:19.761 --> 17:23.306
She's no longer in pain
and no longer in fear.

17:23.890 --> 17:26.725
Everyone's afraid of death, you know.

17:26.726 --> 17:29.603
So, I do them a favor by eating them.

17:29.604 --> 17:32.189
They get to live on with me.

17:32.190 --> 17:34.317
For all eternity!

17:34.901 --> 17:37.194
To save my followers,
I take in their desires,

17:37.195 --> 17:39.363
their blood and their flesh...

17:39.364 --> 17:42.116
and guide them...

17:42.117 --> 17:45.119
to ever greater heights.

17:45.120 --> 17:48.122
You can't possibly be in your right mind.

17:48.123 --> 17:50.416
Are you sure you're mentally intact?

17:50.417 --> 17:52.460
You truly make me want to gag!

17:52.961 --> 17:54.462
What?

17:55.213 --> 17:58.883
We've only just met,
but you're being awfully hostile.

17:58.884 --> 18:00.468
Oh! I see.

18:00.969 --> 18:02.761
You poor thing.

18:02.762 --> 18:05.473
You must've gone through
something unbearable.

18:05.765 --> 18:07.224
I'd be happy to listen.

18:07.225 --> 18:09.019
Go on, let it all out.

18:10.312 --> 18:13.230
"Unbearable" barely even scratches
the surface!

18:13.231 --> 18:16.483
The one who killed my big sister,
it was you!

18:16.484 --> 18:19.279
Doesn't this haori ring a bell?

18:19.696 --> 18:20.989
Huh?

18:32.834 --> 18:34.043
Oh!

18:34.044 --> 18:37.172
You mean that girl
who used Flower Breathing?

18:37.589 --> 18:40.383
Such a gentle, sweet child!

18:40.842 --> 18:43.677
The one I didn't get to devour
because the sun came up.

18:43.678 --> 18:45.013
I remember her.

18:45.305 --> 18:47.891
I sure wish I could've eaten her--

18:49.851 --> 18:51.226
<i>Insect Breathing...</i>

18:51.227 --> 18:52.937
<i>Dance of the Bee Sting...</i>

18:52.938 --> 18:54.230
<i>True Flutter!</i>

18:55.231 --> 18:58.652
What an astounding thrust!
I couldn't stop it with my hand!

19:00.737 --> 19:01.738
<i>Blood Demon Art...</i>

19:03.907 --> 19:06.117
<i>Frozen Lotus.</i>

19:06.952 --> 19:10.538
<i>It's freezing! The air's so cold,
it feels like it's ripping my lungs apart!</i>

19:11.748 --> 19:14.876
Oh, you sure are a quick one!

19:15.627 --> 19:17.795
But too bad for you.

19:17.796 --> 19:20.882
Thrusts can't kill a demon.

19:24.427 --> 19:25.845
It's the neck.

19:26.221 --> 19:28.681
You need to chop off the head.

19:28.682 --> 19:30.809
DESTROY

19:31.184 --> 19:33.561
I may not be able
to kill you with my thrusts...

19:33.937 --> 19:35.313
but what about poison?

19:40.193 --> 19:44.489
<i>I'll find out now whether this poison
will work on an Upper Rank.</i>

19:45.490 --> 19:46.616
<i>Big Sister...</i>

19:47.283 --> 19:48.326
<i>please!</i>

19:48.910 --> 19:50.036
<i>Big Sister!</i>

19:52.580 --> 19:53.999
This is...

19:54.332 --> 19:57.126
stronger than the poison you used...

19:57.127 --> 19:59.546
on Rui's mountain, isn't it?

20:00.630 --> 20:03.757
<i>So, they did exchange information
after all.</i>

20:03.758 --> 20:05.759
<i>Poison is a double-edged sword.</i>

20:05.760 --> 20:09.513
You... have been changing
the concoction for each demon!

20:09.514 --> 20:13.143
That's what he told me!

20:20.483 --> 20:22.443
What's this?

20:22.444 --> 20:26.447
Looks like I've neutralized your poison!

20:26.448 --> 20:27.823
Sorry about that!

20:27.824 --> 20:31.161
Even though you used it just for me!

20:32.328 --> 20:33.663
That sword...

20:34.164 --> 20:37.417
The sound it makes
when you sheathe it is unique.

20:38.209 --> 20:41.546
Is that where you change up the poison?

20:41.838 --> 20:44.299
Wow, this is fun!

20:45.425 --> 20:48.010
Getting poisoned is so amusing!

20:48.011 --> 20:49.929
It's almost addictive!

20:50.221 --> 20:52.639
Do you think your
next blend will work?

20:52.640 --> 20:54.601
Let's give it a try!

21:01.024 --> 21:02.692
Very well.

21:03.276 --> 21:04.818
Fine by me.

21:04.819 --> 21:05.987
After all...

21:09.532 --> 21:12.619
I'd already anticipated
that this'd happen.

21:14.370 --> 21:16.288
Are you done mixing your new poison?

21:16.289 --> 21:19.000
I'm ready whenever you are!

21:22.670 --> 21:25.215
I know I told you to give it a try...

21:27.092 --> 21:30.261
but repeating the same strike
feels monotonous.

21:45.151 --> 21:48.655
What's this? You're slower than before.

21:49.197 --> 21:50.281
At this rate...

21:50.740 --> 21:53.284
<i>Insect Breathing, Dance of the Horsefly...</i>

21:53.660 --> 21:55.662
<i>Enticing Slash!</i>

22:03.545 --> 22:06.588
Whoops, you got a piece of me there, huh?

22:06.589 --> 22:09.424
You must have redirected
my counterattacks.

22:09.425 --> 22:12.428
That's amazing! I'm truly impressed!

22:12.804 --> 22:15.431
It's the touching fruits of your labor!

22:15.723 --> 22:17.933
You can keep piling it on!

22:17.934 --> 22:21.645
Why don't you launch your next attack
before I neutralize the poison?

22:21.646 --> 22:22.855
I can't help...

22:22.856 --> 22:26.192
wanting to cheer on people who try hard!

22:32.448 --> 22:33.448
Yes!

22:33.449 --> 22:34.617
That's the spirit!

22:37.871 --> 22:42.250
<i>Ever since I was a child,
I was kindhearted and smart.</i>

22:42.959 --> 22:48.422
<i>I never failed to help the pitiful,
and I made them happy.</i>

22:48.423 --> 22:50.925
<i>Because that was my duty.</i>

22:52.135 --> 22:55.430
<i>There are rainbows in this child's eyes.</i>

22:55.930 --> 22:59.559
<i>This pale gray hair
is proof of his innocence.</i>

23:00.143 --> 23:02.312
<i>This child is special.</i>

23:02.729 --> 23:05.565
<i>I'm sure that he can hear
the voices of the gods.</i>

23:07.358 --> 23:11.070
<i>My parents were hopelessly obtuse.</i>

23:11.738 --> 23:14.281
<i>Not that they could've
founded a stupid religion</i>

23:14.282 --> 23:17.368
<i>like the Eternal Paradise Faith otherwise.</i>

23:17.869 --> 23:19.704
<i>I felt sorry for them...</i>

23:20.079 --> 23:22.999
<i>so I always played along.</i>

23:24.292 --> 23:27.503
<i>I never once heard the voices of the gods.</i>

23:28.171 --> 23:30.881
<i>At first, I didn't know how
to deal with the hordes of people</i>

23:30.882 --> 23:34.761
<i>worshipping me and praying to me.</i>

23:35.220 --> 23:37.971
<i>Seeing these grown-ups
come crying to a child like me...</i>

23:37.972 --> 23:41.725
<i>saying, "I'm suffering,
I'm in pain, what should I do?"...</i>

23:41.726 --> 23:44.812
<i>made me worry
whether their heads were okay.</i>

23:46.022 --> 23:49.275
<i>After nearly putting me to sleep
with their personal stories...</i>

23:49.817 --> 23:54.155
<i>they would bow down to me,
asking me to guide them to Paradise.</i>

23:54.739 --> 23:56.658
<i>I cried.</i>

23:57.242 --> 23:58.826
<i>You poor things.</i>

23:59.410 --> 24:02.121
<i>Paradise doesn't even exist.</i>

24:02.830 --> 24:06.668
<i>It's just a fairy tale
concocted by deluded humans.</i>

24:07.919 --> 24:10.338
<i>There are no gods nor buddhas.</i>

24:10.922 --> 24:16.719
<i>These people had lived for decades,
yet they still couldn't grasp that.</i>

24:17.303 --> 24:19.347
<i>When you die, you just become nothing.</i>

24:19.931 --> 24:22.433
<i>You just stop feeling anything.</i>

24:23.309 --> 24:29.107
<i>Your heart stops, your brain stops,
you rot and return to the earth.</i>

24:29.732 --> 24:32.694
<i>That's what happens
to every living creature.</i>

24:35.238 --> 24:38.449
<i>You're incapable of accepting
such a simple fact.</i>

24:38.825 --> 24:41.452
<i>It must be hard to be so stupid.</i>

24:42.078 --> 24:45.747
<i>I want to bring happiness
to these pitiful people.</i>

24:45.748 --> 24:47.667
<i>I want to save them!</i>

24:48.293 --> 24:50.253
<i>That's why I...</i>

24:50.920 --> 24:52.755
<i>was born into this world.</i>

24:59.262 --> 25:00.304
Hmm...

25:00.305 --> 25:01.638
That's the fifth round.

25:01.639 --> 25:03.265
Another dud, huh?

25:03.266 --> 25:04.726
It's not working.

25:05.310 --> 25:07.936
It's getting less
and less effective, isn't it?

25:07.937 --> 25:11.524
How many more times
can you mix up that poison?

25:11.816 --> 25:14.110
Oh, are you out of breath now?

25:14.569 --> 25:17.280
Look at all that sweat! Are you all right?

25:18.072 --> 25:19.282
<i>So...</i>

25:19.657 --> 25:21.451
<i>this is the power of an Upper Rank!</i>

25:21.826 --> 25:23.786
<i>The poison's not working on him at all!</i>

25:24.829 --> 25:27.790
<i>The speed at which
he becomes resistant is insane!</i>

25:30.126 --> 25:32.670
Well, the air sacs in your lungs
are going through necrosis.

25:34.505 --> 25:35.798
Painful, isn't it?

25:36.174 --> 25:39.886
You did breathe in
my Blood Demon Art after all.

25:41.596 --> 25:44.431
<i>He turns his frozen blood into mist...</i>

25:44.432 --> 25:46.768
<i>and uses his fans to disperse it.</i>

25:47.060 --> 25:50.563
<i>The very act of breathing itself
becomes dangerous.</i>

25:58.071 --> 25:59.113
<i>I'll use...</i>

25:59.530 --> 26:01.866
<i>consecutive strikes to inject him
with a massive dose of poison!</i>

26:03.117 --> 26:04.493
<i>Insect Breathing...</i>

26:04.494 --> 26:05.995
<i>Dance of the Dragonfly...</i>

26:12.668 --> 26:14.420
<i>Compound Eye Hexagon!</i>

26:17.382 --> 26:18.965
My goodness...

26:18.966 --> 26:20.802
you're incredibly fast!

26:21.219 --> 26:24.931
You might be the fastest Hashira
I've ever met!

26:28.559 --> 26:30.812
<i>I've been... slashed!</i>

26:33.189 --> 26:36.901
If only you could've beheaded me
instead of using poison.

26:37.026 --> 26:39.404
With your speed, you might've beaten me.

26:41.656 --> 26:42.823
Well, maybe not!

26:42.824 --> 26:45.368
Since you're so small!

26:48.663 --> 26:53.000
<i>I wonder why my hands are so small.</i>

26:53.751 --> 26:56.879
<i>Why didn't I ever grow taller?</i>

26:58.714 --> 27:02.135
<i>If I were just a little taller...</i>

27:02.468 --> 27:05.513
<i>could I have beheaded a demon
and defeated it?</i>

27:06.305 --> 27:12.144
<i>Having longer arms and legs means
you have that much more muscle.</i>

27:12.145 --> 27:14.105
<i>That would give me an advantage.</i>

27:16.524 --> 27:18.651
<i>My big sister was petite...</i>

27:19.318 --> 27:21.946
<i>but she was taller than me.</i>

27:23.322 --> 27:26.117
<i>How I envy Mr. Himejima!</i>

27:26.659 --> 27:31.164
<i>Who wouldn't be relieved
to see him come to their rescue?</i>

27:34.876 --> 27:37.753
<i>I know what my sister was trying to say...</i>

27:38.838 --> 27:40.631
<i>that day.</i>

27:44.093 --> 27:47.929
Hey, is this the end?

27:47.930 --> 27:49.557
Too bad, I guess.

27:53.144 --> 27:56.647
<i>"Shinobu, you'll probably lose
to that demon."</i>

27:57.064 --> 28:01.277
<i>That's what you started to say,
but you stopped yourself, right?</i>

28:01.944 --> 28:03.696
<i>Get yourself together.</i>

28:09.619 --> 28:11.954
<i>I won't allow you to shed any tears.</i>

28:13.039 --> 28:14.540
<i>Big Sister...</i>

28:14.832 --> 28:16.000
<i>Stand up.</i>

28:16.501 --> 28:19.252
<i>I can't! I've lost so much blood!</i>

28:19.253 --> 28:23.633
<i>My left lung's punctured,
and I can't even breathe!</i>

28:23.925 --> 28:26.009
<i>I don't want to hear it.</i>

28:26.010 --> 28:27.469
<i>Stand up...</i>

28:27.470 --> 28:29.805
<i>Insect Hashira Shinobu Kocho!</i>

28:32.225 --> 28:34.893
<i>If you've made up your mind
to defeat him, then defeat him!</i>

28:34.894 --> 28:37.480
<i>If you've made up
your mind to win, then win!</i>

28:38.481 --> 28:41.025
<i>Win, whatever it takes.</i>

28:41.400 --> 28:45.821
<i>Isn't that what you promised
both me and Kanao?</i>

28:47.657 --> 28:49.242
<i>Kanao...</i>

28:52.119 --> 28:53.620
I'm so sorry...

28:53.621 --> 28:56.165
I didn't finish you off,
so it must really hurt, right?

29:01.212 --> 29:03.588
<i>I know you can do this, Shinobu.</i>

29:03.589 --> 29:05.174
<i>Give it your all.</i>

29:11.180 --> 29:15.893
What, you're standing up?
You're really going to stand up? Huh?

29:16.310 --> 29:19.939
Are you... really human?

29:20.231 --> 29:24.402
I slashed your collarbone,
your lung and your ribs.

29:25.069 --> 29:31.993
At your size, the amount of blood
you've lost should've killed you by now.

29:32.660 --> 29:37.081
Oh no, see?
The blood is gurgling in your lungs!

29:37.415 --> 29:40.458
The pain must be unimaginable!

29:40.459 --> 29:44.338
I'll slice off your head right now,
so don't push yourself!

29:45.381 --> 29:47.299
You're past saving now.

29:47.300 --> 29:48.967
Go ahead and let go.

29:48.968 --> 29:51.846
<i>I should go for his
Achilles' heel... his neck!</i>

29:52.138 --> 29:55.224
<i>If I slam the poison into his neck,
I'll have a chance!</i>

29:56.142 --> 29:57.892
<i>Insect Breathing...</i>

29:57.893 --> 29:59.645
<i>Dance of the Centipede...</i>

30:00.313 --> 30:01.313
Hmm?

30:01.314 --> 30:03.399
<i>Hundred-legged Zigzag!</i>

30:26.631 --> 30:29.550
<i>She's twisting
and turning in all directions.</i>

30:29.884 --> 30:32.011
<i>The impact of her steps
is enough to destroy the bridge.</i>

30:35.097 --> 30:37.767
<i>So fast! I can't predict her attack!</i>

30:43.814 --> 30:44.815
<i>So low!</i>

30:58.829 --> 31:00.790
<i>The road to bliss.</i>

31:01.916 --> 31:04.001
<i>I always believed...</i>

31:04.460 --> 31:06.504
<i>that it continued to stretch on and on...</i>

31:07.004 --> 31:08.714
<i>far into the distance.</i>

31:12.301 --> 31:14.595
<i>Not until it was destroyed...</i>

31:15.096 --> 31:21.143
<i>did I realize that my bliss
sat on top of a sliver of glass.</i>

31:23.771 --> 31:25.022
<i>And...</i>

31:25.773 --> 31:28.150
<i>just as we'd been rescued...</i>

31:29.151 --> 31:31.362
<i>I wanted to become stronger...</i>

31:31.696 --> 31:33.989
<i>and protect...</i>

31:34.490 --> 31:38.577
<i>someone else's unscathed happiness.</i>

31:39.995 --> 31:41.247
<i>That's what we'd...</i>

31:42.498 --> 31:44.750
<i>promised each other.</i>

31:46.293 --> 31:48.003
<i>"Let's defeat the demons."</i>

31:48.713 --> 31:50.714
<i>"As many as we can."</i>

31:50.715 --> 31:52.341
<i>"Together."</i>

31:54.927 --> 31:57.638
<i>So that others wouldn't have to...</i>

31:58.305 --> 32:01.058
<i>go through what we did!</i>

32:09.024 --> 32:10.735
<i>Even if I'm weak.</i>

32:14.655 --> 32:17.158
<i>Even if I was incapable
of beheading a demon!</i>

32:17.908 --> 32:19.909
<i>By defeating a single demon...</i>

32:19.910 --> 32:21.579
<i>I could save dozens!</i>

32:21.912 --> 32:24.165
<i>And if the demon I brought down
was an Upper Rank...</i>

32:24.665 --> 32:27.752
<i>I could save hundreds of people!</i>

32:28.836 --> 32:30.963
<i>It's not a matter of whether
I can do it or not.</i>

32:32.590 --> 32:35.176
<i>It's something that I have to do.</i>

32:40.306 --> 32:42.308
<i>Are you angry?</i>

32:43.809 --> 32:49.023
<i>Yes, I am angry, Tanjiro.</i>

32:49.482 --> 32:50.983
<i>I'm always...</i>

32:51.567 --> 32:53.860
<i>constantly...</i>

32:53.861 --> 32:55.780
<i>angry.</i>

32:58.199 --> 33:00.451
<i>My parents were killed.</i>

33:01.577 --> 33:03.829
<i>My big sister was killed.</i>

33:04.914 --> 33:08.334
<i>My Tsuguko
other than Kanao were all killed.</i>

33:09.418 --> 33:11.170
<i>Not to mention those girls.</i>

33:11.962 --> 33:14.130
<i>If their loved ones...</i>

33:14.131 --> 33:17.343
<i>hadn't been murdered by demons...</i>

33:17.760 --> 33:20.679
<i>they'd still be living happily
with their families!</i>

33:23.390 --> 33:26.393
<i>You make me so livid!</i>

33:26.727 --> 33:28.938
<i>Don't you mess with me, idiot!</i>

33:30.314 --> 33:33.442
<i>Why isn't the poison
working on you, dammit?</i>

33:34.360 --> 33:35.694
<i>You bastard!</i>

33:47.289 --> 33:48.498
So commendable!

33:48.499 --> 33:49.959
You did your best!

33:50.543 --> 33:52.585
My heart is moved!

33:52.586 --> 33:55.756
To see such a weak girl
getting this far...

33:56.674 --> 33:58.633
How did you last this long
as a Demon Slayer...

33:58.634 --> 34:01.720
with less talent than your big sister?

34:02.179 --> 34:05.099
It's a miracle
that you survived until now!

34:07.351 --> 34:09.435
So foolish, you'll try
to see things through

34:09.436 --> 34:11.688
to the end despite the futility!

34:11.689 --> 34:13.898
That's what makes humans so fragile!

34:13.899 --> 34:16.861
And it's what makes humans so magnificent!

34:17.278 --> 34:20.364
You're worthy of being devoured by me!

34:21.115 --> 34:23.367
Let's share eternity, you and I!

34:26.871 --> 34:29.163
Any last words?

34:29.164 --> 34:31.000
I'll be happy to listen.

34:35.504 --> 34:38.132
Go to hell!

34:43.345 --> 34:44.972
Master!

35:16.253 --> 35:18.672
<i>I bet he's here, too.</i>

35:19.256 --> 35:20.925
<i>Since I'm sure...</i>

35:21.467 --> 35:23.302
<i>he also needs to face me!</i>

35:30.559 --> 35:34.228
<i>The people you love and hold dear...</i>

35:34.229 --> 35:35.897
<i>We just thoughtlessly assume</i>

35:35.898 --> 35:38.817
<i>that they'll still be alive tomorrow
and the day after.</i>

35:39.318 --> 35:40.569
<i>But...</i>

35:41.153 --> 35:42.988
<i>that's nothing but a desire.</i>

35:43.447 --> 35:44.949
<i>Flower Breathing...</i>

35:45.741 --> 35:47.033
<i>And even though...</i>

35:47.034 --> 35:49.243
<i>it's not an ironclad promise...</i>

35:49.244 --> 35:50.537
<i>Fourth Form...</i>

35:52.289 --> 35:53.999
<i>Crimson Hanagoromo!</i>

36:00.589 --> 36:03.342
Whoa, that was close!

36:07.137 --> 36:09.556
<i>...they'll always be alive and close by.</i>

36:11.016 --> 36:12.393
<i>For some reason...</i>

36:12.851 --> 36:16.563
<i>people can't help believing that.</i>

36:19.316 --> 36:24.738
Would you mind not attacking me
while I'm absorbing her?

36:33.539 --> 36:34.832
What's this?

36:35.374 --> 36:38.085
You're not taking the bait?

36:38.752 --> 36:43.007
Is it because of what she motioned earlier
with her fingers?

36:43.382 --> 36:46.634
Did she tell you what my powers are?

36:46.635 --> 36:49.805
In just a split second? Amazing!

36:50.389 --> 36:52.057
Even though it's futile.

36:52.474 --> 36:54.685
She's such a hard worker!

36:57.229 --> 36:59.857
But really, I have to say...

37:00.649 --> 37:04.069
what a wonderful night this is.

37:05.446 --> 37:07.363
The feasts just keep coming...

37:07.364 --> 37:10.576
one after another.

37:11.452 --> 37:14.288
Yes, truly...

37:15.080 --> 37:17.541
what a wonderful night.

37:31.180 --> 37:32.805
You're here, aren't you?

37:32.806 --> 37:34.141
Show yourself.

37:35.017 --> 37:37.144
I know you're there.

37:40.314 --> 37:43.066
That's no way to talk, you know.

37:43.067 --> 37:45.152
Not to your senior.

37:46.111 --> 37:49.198
You look a little better than before...

37:49.823 --> 37:54.244
but you're still the same
scrawny guy as ever.

37:57.456 --> 37:58.956
UPPER SIX

37:58.957 --> 38:01.250
Long time no see...

38:01.251 --> 38:03.212
Zenitsu.

38:05.881 --> 38:07.548
Kaigaku...

38:07.549 --> 38:09.593
Now that you're a demon...

38:10.260 --> 38:13.764
I no longer consider you my senior!

38:27.236 --> 38:28.362
<i>Water Breathing...</i>

38:28.654 --> 38:29.947
<i>Ninth Form...</i>

38:31.532 --> 38:33.534
<i>Splashing Water Flow, Turbulent!</i>

38:35.994 --> 38:37.203
Stay focused!

38:37.204 --> 38:38.497
Right!

38:39.790 --> 38:41.625
<i>This place is crazy!</i>

38:42.084 --> 38:44.418
<i>The buildings themselves are throbbing
like they're pulsing!</i>

38:44.419 --> 38:46.088
<i>It's like it's alive!</i>

38:46.547 --> 38:49.550
<i>It's trying to tear Mr. Giyu and me apart!</i>

38:50.259 --> 38:53.052
<i>We have to reconvene with as many
other Corps members as we can...</i>

38:53.053 --> 38:55.889
<i>and head to where Muzan is!</i>

39:03.522 --> 39:04.939
Deceased!

39:04.940 --> 39:07.025
Shinobu Kocho has died!

39:07.776 --> 39:10.195
After battling Upper Two...

39:10.571 --> 39:12.156
she's now deceased!

39:53.238 --> 39:54.448
<i>That crow...</i>

39:54.823 --> 39:57.159
<i>What's that piece of paper on its neck?</i>

39:57.534 --> 39:59.661
<i>The communications are up so quickly.</i>

40:03.999 --> 40:05.667
Shinobu is dead.

40:06.168 --> 40:08.127
You mustn't look downward.

40:08.128 --> 40:11.172
Just think about
what you're going to do next.

40:11.173 --> 40:12.299
- Right!
- Right!

40:14.635 --> 40:18.388
What's the status of the other Hashira
and Corps members?

40:20.015 --> 40:23.852
At the center of the 40th vertical
and 12th horizontal levels...

40:25.646 --> 40:27.939
the Corps members are fighting demons.

40:27.940 --> 40:30.192
Numbering at least ten.

40:37.115 --> 40:41.453
And beyond that wall,
more than 30 demons are now approaching.

40:47.918 --> 40:52.089
<i>Mr. Yushiro's eyes
can see Blood Demon Arts.</i>

40:52.464 --> 40:56.051
<i>The art itself that is not visible
to human eyes.</i>

40:56.802 --> 40:59.929
<i>These lights of different sizes
must be the potency</i>

40:59.930 --> 41:02.307
<i>of each demon's Blood Demon Art.</i>

41:03.225 --> 41:07.728
<i>And these pulsating buildings
in constant motion...</i>

41:07.729 --> 41:09.606
<i>are also a Blood Demon Art.</i>

41:09.982 --> 41:12.609
<i>And there seems to be no end to it.</i>

41:15.362 --> 41:17.239
<i>Such incredible power.</i>

41:18.532 --> 41:19.824
<i>This is...</i>

41:19.825 --> 41:22.619
<i>a demon castle, spreading out infinitely!</i>

41:26.248 --> 41:30.460
<i>And we have been lured
inside this infinite demon castle.</i>

41:34.548 --> 41:35.756
<i>But...</i>

41:35.757 --> 41:38.218
<i>it's not as if we were just drawn in.</i>

41:38.635 --> 41:40.679
<i>My father prepared
for this day meticulously...</i>

41:41.054 --> 41:42.514
<i>and here we are now.</i>

41:43.557 --> 41:45.349
<i>Using Gyomei as the linchpin...</i>

41:45.350 --> 41:49.104
<i>he had the Hashira positioned
to arrive on the scene at any time...</i>

41:49.438 --> 41:52.356
<i>and in order to align
all of the individual Corps members...</i>

41:52.357 --> 41:56.236
<i>he gave the Kasugai Crows
their missions and waited.</i>

41:57.154 --> 42:00.573
<i>Enlisting the aid
of both Ms. Tamayo and Mr. Yushiro...</i>

42:00.574 --> 42:01.742
<i>and finally...</i>

42:02.284 --> 42:04.911
<i>to ensure that this plan
would be perfect...</i>

42:05.329 --> 42:07.331
<i>my sisters also sacrificed their lives...</i>

42:08.206 --> 42:10.709
<i>along with those of our parents.</i>

42:13.920 --> 42:15.339
We will not...

42:15.964 --> 42:17.341
lose this battle!

42:23.764 --> 42:28.976
<i>Five massive powers are being emitted
throughout this great space...</i>

42:28.977 --> 42:31.313
<i>as if flaunting their own strength.</i>

42:31.688 --> 42:33.774
<i>These must be the Upper Ranks.</i>

42:34.733 --> 42:38.903
<i>One of them is at the same spot
where Shinobu was located.</i>

42:38.904 --> 42:40.279
Upper Rank sighting!

42:40.280 --> 42:43.449
Upper Six and Agatsuma
have encountered each other!

42:43.450 --> 42:46.369
An Upper Rank! Are there
any other Corps members with him?

42:46.370 --> 42:48.997
None! Agatsuma is alone!

42:49.289 --> 42:51.874
The odds aren't good for a lone Hinoe!

42:51.875 --> 42:53.418
Send him backup right away!

43:00.008 --> 43:02.134
You haven't changed, have you?

43:02.135 --> 43:04.303
You're still a runt and shabby-looking...

43:04.304 --> 43:06.890
and weak as ever.

43:07.557 --> 43:09.810
Were you able to become a Hashira?

43:10.310 --> 43:13.438
Hey, Zenitsu!

43:13.814 --> 43:17.984
Did you ever learn to use
anything besides the First Form?

43:18.735 --> 43:20.861
Someone seems thrilled to have made it

43:20.862 --> 43:25.075
as an Upper Rank
bottom-feeder as a stopgap.

43:25.909 --> 43:27.494
Hah!

43:28.537 --> 43:31.623
You sure learned to mouth off.

43:32.374 --> 43:34.918
Why did you become a demon of all things?

43:36.044 --> 43:37.086
You would never--

43:37.087 --> 43:41.091
Why would the prospective heir
of Thunder Breathing become a demon?

43:42.592 --> 43:43.717
Huh?

43:43.718 --> 43:45.970
Because you turned into a demon...

43:45.971 --> 43:47.931
Gramps...

43:49.224 --> 43:51.226
committed seppuku and died!

43:52.394 --> 43:53.812
Gramps...

43:54.271 --> 43:56.314
committed seppuku alone!

43:57.607 --> 43:59.985
Without any assistance!

44:00.569 --> 44:02.153
If you don't have
someone cut off your head

44:02.154 --> 44:04.530
after you've stabbed
yourself in the belly...

44:04.531 --> 44:07.491
you die a drawn-out death in agony!

44:07.492 --> 44:08.951
Gramps...

44:08.952 --> 44:12.455
died without even stabbing
his own throat or heart!

44:12.456 --> 44:16.084
All because a demon was produced
from a Thunder Breathing user!

44:17.419 --> 44:19.546
What do I care?

44:19.963 --> 44:22.465
So? What is it?

44:22.466 --> 44:24.049
You want me to grieve?

44:24.050 --> 44:26.302
To repent and atone for my ways?

44:26.303 --> 44:31.308
I have no use for anyone
who doesn't value me.

44:31.808 --> 44:33.143
I always...

44:33.643 --> 44:35.227
no matter what...

44:35.228 --> 44:38.523
take the side of whoever knows my worth.

44:40.275 --> 44:44.528
If the old geezer died in agony, I'm glad.

44:44.529 --> 44:47.491
After all that I did for him...

44:47.908 --> 44:49.909
instead of making me his successor...

44:49.910 --> 44:55.290
he had the gall to make trash like you
my co-successor, that bastard!

44:56.124 --> 44:58.001
Former Hashira or not...

44:58.293 --> 45:01.880
I have no use for a senile geezer!

45:06.760 --> 45:09.554
Gramps wasn't senile by a long shot.

45:09.930 --> 45:12.933
If I'm trash, then you're scum!

45:13.308 --> 45:15.434
Between me, who could
only use the First Form,

45:15.435 --> 45:18.313
and you, who could
never use the First Form...

45:19.022 --> 45:23.317
I feel sorry for Gramps to have
such a sorry pair of successors!

45:23.318 --> 45:25.319
Don't lump me together...

45:25.320 --> 45:27.280
with the likes of you!

45:27.864 --> 45:29.198
<i>Thunder Breathing...</i>

45:29.199 --> 45:30.533
<i>Fourth Form...</i>

45:30.534 --> 45:31.785
<i>Distant Thunder!</i>

45:40.126 --> 45:42.254
You're too slow, scum.

45:47.801 --> 45:49.426
<i>He slashed me!</i>

45:49.427 --> 45:50.636
<i>So fast!</i>

45:50.637 --> 45:52.180
<i>He's...</i>

45:52.514 --> 45:56.434
<i>moving like a totally different person!</i>

45:58.103 --> 46:00.480
<i>I'm not wrong!</i>

46:10.824 --> 46:15.078
<i>There's no shame in kneeling down
before the overwhelmingly powerful.</i>

46:16.079 --> 46:19.541
<i>As long as you're alive,
you'll find a way.</i>

46:21.501 --> 46:24.879
<i>You haven't lost until the moment you die.</i>

46:25.171 --> 46:28.133
<i>Whether you grovel on the ground...</i>

46:28.466 --> 46:30.301
<i>whether you have no home...</i>

46:30.302 --> 46:32.512
<i>and have to drink from a puddle...</i>

46:32.887 --> 46:36.391
<i>whether they condemn you
for stealing money...</i>

46:36.933 --> 46:40.352
<i>as long as you're alive,
you can win some day.</i>

46:40.353 --> 46:41.937
<i>I'll win and prove it.</i>

46:41.938 --> 46:44.774
<i>Believing that has kept me going in life.</i>

46:46.776 --> 46:48.737
<i>Do you wish to gain even more power...</i>

46:49.696 --> 46:52.574
<i>by becoming a demon?</i>

46:53.283 --> 46:56.577
<i>Should that man acknowledge you...</i>

46:56.578 --> 46:59.873
<i>then you, too, will become one of us.</i>

47:03.668 --> 47:05.670
<i>The stronger the swordsman...</i>

47:06.254 --> 47:09.466
<i>the longer it takes for him
to become a demon.</i>

47:09.924 --> 47:13.386
<i>It took me three full days.</i>

47:13.928 --> 47:17.557
<i>Turning a wielder
of a Breathing Technique into a demon...</i>

47:17.974 --> 47:23.438
<i>will require a massive amount
of that man's blood.</i>

47:24.022 --> 47:25.982
<i>And though rare...</i>

47:26.274 --> 47:31.404
<i>some are physically
incapable of becoming demons...</i>

47:31.905 --> 47:34.658
<i>I wonder how you will fare.</i>

47:38.703 --> 47:41.164
<i>You must appreciate this blood.</i>

47:41.581 --> 47:45.585
<i>Do not even think
of spilling a single drop.</i>

47:46.419 --> 47:48.672
<i>Should you let any fall...</i>

47:49.089 --> 47:51.882
<i>your head and torso...</i>

47:51.883 --> 47:53.927
<i>will be severed.</i>

47:59.349 --> 48:02.560
<i>That terror that felt
like every cell in my body...</i>

48:02.894 --> 48:06.022
<i>was screaming and sobbing...</i>

48:10.485 --> 48:12.404
<i>Compared to that...</i>

48:12.696 --> 48:15.990
<i>this little punk is nothing!</i>

48:16.491 --> 48:20.078
<i>Just 'cause he's stronger doesn't mean
he's on par with an Upper Rank!</i>

48:20.995 --> 48:24.540
<i>Zenitsu Agatsuma... This guy is trash!</i>

48:24.541 --> 48:27.000
<i>He was always sniveling like a baby!</i>

48:27.001 --> 48:29.713
<i>Not a shred of dignity or grit!</i>

48:30.088 --> 48:31.797
<i>Help me!</i>

48:31.798 --> 48:33.841
<i>There's a pitfall!</i>

48:33.842 --> 48:36.553
<i>I twisted my ankle!</i>

48:37.011 --> 48:42.517
<i>Me, co-successor with this trash?
That damn geezer was full of it!</i>

48:43.059 --> 48:45.019
<i>Here you go, Kaigaku.</i>

48:45.812 --> 48:48.106
<i>Gramps!</i>

48:48.690 --> 48:51.443
<i>It's a little too big, see?</i>

48:51.735 --> 48:55.321
- <i>Come on, Gramps!
- You and me, equals?</i>

48:57.490 --> 48:59.951
There's just no way in hell!

49:01.453 --> 49:04.413
He deserved to die!

49:04.414 --> 49:06.498
That goes for both you
and that old geezer!

49:06.499 --> 49:09.461
You both deserve to die!

49:10.295 --> 49:13.339
<i>I could only learn the First Form...</i>

49:13.965 --> 49:17.677
<i>and you were able to learn
everything but the First Form.</i>

49:19.679 --> 49:21.306
<i>That's why Gramps...</i>

49:21.723 --> 49:27.103
<i>wanted us both to be
his Thunder Breathing successors.</i>

49:28.938 --> 49:31.399
<i>But you wanted so badly
to deny him that...</i>

49:31.900 --> 49:35.612
<i>you became a demon, didn't you?</i>

49:37.864 --> 49:38.864
<i>Here it comes!</i>

49:38.865 --> 49:40.324
<i>Thunder Breathing...</i>

49:40.325 --> 49:41.493
<i>Second Form...</i>

49:42.619 --> 49:43.828
<i>Rice Spirit!</i>

49:46.080 --> 49:49.334
<i>With one breath, five flashes
in the blink of an eye!</i>

49:51.795 --> 49:53.630
You must've devoured tons of people!

49:53.922 --> 49:56.841
You can't even tell right from wrong
any more, can you?

49:57.133 --> 49:59.385
Oh, I know the difference
between right and wrong!

50:01.137 --> 50:02.263
What's the matter?

50:02.680 --> 50:05.600
Aren't you the old geezer's favorite?

50:06.643 --> 50:09.479
So, why don't you show me...

50:09.771 --> 50:12.357
what he graciously passed down to you?

50:15.985 --> 50:17.486
What's wrong?

50:17.487 --> 50:19.322
Don't hold back!

50:19.614 --> 50:21.825
Just hit me with it already!

50:28.206 --> 50:29.666
<i>Thunder Breathing...</i>

50:32.210 --> 50:33.461
<i>First Form...</i>

50:35.630 --> 50:37.340
<i>Thunderclap and Flash!</i>

50:43.680 --> 50:46.932
Such a basic move where all you do
is charge at me head-on...

50:46.933 --> 50:48.642
so brainlessly...

50:48.643 --> 50:50.228
could never hit me!

50:52.063 --> 50:53.481
<i>Thunder Breathing...</i>

50:53.815 --> 50:55.190
<i>Third Form...</i>

50:55.191 --> 50:56.734
<i>Thunder Swarm!</i>

51:02.782 --> 51:04.951
<i>He's attacking me in waves while spinning!</i>

51:05.243 --> 51:06.702
What's wrong?

51:06.703 --> 51:08.454
Are you done already?

51:10.039 --> 51:11.039
<i>Thunder Breathing...</i>

51:11.040 --> 51:12.291
<i>First Form...</i>

51:12.292 --> 51:13.835
<i>Thunderclap and Flash! Eightfold!</i>

51:19.090 --> 51:21.217
It's not working!

51:21.968 --> 51:23.177
<i>Thunder Breathing...</i>

51:23.928 --> 51:25.054
<i>Fifth Form...</i>

51:27.557 --> 51:28.933
<i>Heat Lightning!</i>

51:30.810 --> 51:31.978
How does it feel?

51:32.812 --> 51:36.232
The bite of my
Blood Demon Art-enhanced sword?

51:36.774 --> 51:39.068
A deadly strike that cracks...

51:39.360 --> 51:41.571
and burns your skin and flesh!

51:42.614 --> 51:45.950
Those who correctly evaluate
and recognize my value are good!

51:46.701 --> 51:49.704
Those who write me off
and fail to acknowledge me are evil!

51:50.580 --> 51:51.830
Do you get it now?

51:51.831 --> 51:54.292
This is my power now!

51:54.709 --> 51:56.628
The power I gained
by becoming a demon, that is!

51:57.211 --> 51:59.212
Single thunderclap or eightfold or what...

51:59.213 --> 52:02.216
making you his successor
when that's all you can do...

52:02.508 --> 52:04.135
was a total misjudgment!

52:11.559 --> 52:15.521
So, that's the answer
you've come up with, huh?

52:17.273 --> 52:19.274
I knew it.

52:19.275 --> 52:21.152
I always knew it, but still...

52:26.157 --> 52:27.574
Zenitsu!

52:27.575 --> 52:28.825
This...

52:28.826 --> 52:30.119
is the end!

52:30.578 --> 52:32.121
<i>Thunder Breathing...</i>

52:33.498 --> 52:35.124
<i>Sixth Form...</i>

52:43.758 --> 52:46.052
<i>Rumble and Flash!</i>

52:46.511 --> 52:50.014
That strike will keep cracking
throughout your body!

52:50.306 --> 52:52.349
Burn it into your mind and body!

52:52.350 --> 52:54.018
My power!

52:54.310 --> 52:57.522
Now that I'm a demon,
I've surpassed Thunder Breathing!

53:02.068 --> 53:03.610
I'm special!

53:03.611 --> 53:05.196
I'm not like you!

53:05.571 --> 53:07.949
I'm not like any of you!

53:08.491 --> 53:11.953
It looks like the old geezer
struck out with you after all!

53:16.541 --> 53:19.376
<i>Be more like Kaigaku!</i>

53:19.377 --> 53:23.089
<i>Try to be like your senior!</i>

53:23.548 --> 53:28.010
<i>Isn't the First Form the entire basis
of Thunder Breathing?</i>

53:28.011 --> 53:32.806
<i>If the First Form's the only one
he can't use, doesn't that mean... Y'know?</i>

53:32.807 --> 53:36.810
<i>He may have mastered other forms,
but he's no big deal.</i>

53:36.811 --> 53:40.940
<i>But even still,
that Kaigaku guy's so arrogant.</i>

53:41.315 --> 53:43.567
<i>No way can he become a Hashira.</i>

53:43.568 --> 53:46.154
<i>He'll probably croak right away anyway.</i>

53:46.654 --> 53:49.449
<i>Wh-What do you think you're doing?</i>

53:50.450 --> 53:53.202
<i>I hear you punched
a higher-ranking Corps member.</i>

53:53.703 --> 53:55.955
<i>Don't go around making trouble, you trash!</i>

53:56.748 --> 54:00.835
<i>How shameful that someone like you exists!</i>

54:02.837 --> 54:07.258
<i>I was fully aware that Kaigaku hated me...</i>

54:07.633 --> 54:10.344
<i>and I hated him right back.</i>

54:11.054 --> 54:13.597
<i>But I respected you.</i>

54:13.598 --> 54:15.141
<i>I truly did.</i>

54:15.600 --> 54:19.395
<i>You were such a hard worker,
and you kept grinding away.</i>

54:19.896 --> 54:23.775
<i>I always looked up to you as an example.</i>

54:24.442 --> 54:27.236
<i>You were special, you know.</i>

54:28.488 --> 54:33.117
<i>For both Gramps and me,
you were special and important!</i>

54:33.743 --> 54:34.868
<i>But...</i>

54:34.869 --> 54:37.121
<i>I guess that wasn't enough for you.</i>

54:37.955 --> 54:39.624
<i>No matter what...</i>

54:40.249 --> 54:42.960
<i>I always heard a sound
of discontent from you.</i>

54:45.004 --> 54:50.051
<i>There's a hole in the box
where you store the joy in your heart.</i>

54:51.094 --> 54:53.679
<i>And the joy just keeps leaking out.</i>

54:55.056 --> 54:57.974
<i>You have to spot the hole
and close it up...</i>

54:57.975 --> 55:00.019
<i>or the box will never be filled.</i>

55:02.647 --> 55:03.981
<i>Gramps...</i>

55:04.565 --> 55:05.775
<i>I'm sorry.</i>

55:06.734 --> 55:08.653
<i>We ended up...</i>

55:09.862 --> 55:11.447
<i>taking different paths!</i>

55:22.792 --> 55:24.418
<i>He still has some strength left?</i>

55:34.011 --> 55:35.930
<i>Wh-What the hell?</i>

55:43.813 --> 55:44.981
<i>Sorry...</i>

55:45.982 --> 55:47.024
<i>Big Brother.</i>

56:07.086 --> 56:08.462
<i>Thunder Breathing...</i>

56:08.921 --> 56:10.548
<i>Seventh Form...</i>

56:13.676 --> 56:15.553
<i>God of Fire Thunder!</i>

56:23.060 --> 56:24.228
<i>I...</i>

56:25.062 --> 56:26.564
<i>I couldn't see that coming!</i>

56:26.898 --> 56:29.192
<i>What the hell is that move?</i>

56:29.859 --> 56:31.235
<i>It's too fast!</i>

56:31.569 --> 56:34.906
<i>I've never seen that technique!
What the hell did you just use?</i>

56:35.281 --> 56:37.908
<i>Dammit! Dammit!</i>

56:37.909 --> 56:40.952
I knew that old fart always favored you!

56:40.953 --> 56:44.247
He only taught you that technique
and never showed me!

56:44.248 --> 56:45.875
You're wrong!

56:48.127 --> 56:51.047
Gramps wasn't that kind of man!

56:51.672 --> 56:54.425
It's my own technique.

56:54.967 --> 56:58.346
My own exclusive technique
that I came up with myself.

56:58.930 --> 57:00.056
I was hoping to one day...

57:01.307 --> 57:03.225
use this technique...

57:03.226 --> 57:06.520
to battle by your side.

57:10.024 --> 57:12.318
<i>A seventh technique?</i>

57:12.902 --> 57:18.574
<i>Thunder Breathing only has six techniques,
and he created a seventh?</i>

57:19.408 --> 57:20.992
<i>Him?</i>

57:20.993 --> 57:23.788
<i>A guy who can only use the First Form?</i>

57:24.538 --> 57:27.291
<i>That trash who's inferior to me?</i>

57:29.126 --> 57:31.753
<i>I can't take it! I just can't take it!</i>

57:31.754 --> 57:34.465
<i>No way can I accept that as a fact!</i>

57:34.966 --> 57:38.302
<i>A guy like that... Me, lose to him?</i>

57:39.553 --> 57:42.223
<i>I think I'm losing my mind!</i>

57:43.641 --> 57:44.642
<i>No...</i>

57:45.685 --> 57:47.727
<i>Wait, it's not a loss!</i>

57:47.728 --> 57:50.146
<i>That trash is going to fall
with me and die, too!</i>

57:50.147 --> 57:52.817
<i>His strength's depleted by now for sure!</i>

57:53.734 --> 57:56.237
<i>He's going to die along with me!</i>

57:57.780 --> 58:02.285
Those who don't give to others
end up never receiving from others.

58:03.828 --> 58:08.082
Guys who do nothing but want
are the same as those who possess nothing.

58:08.833 --> 58:11.919
Because they can't
produce anything themselves.

58:13.212 --> 58:16.340
Dying alone is pathetic, huh?

58:38.321 --> 58:39.697
<i>Where am I?</i>

58:48.247 --> 58:49.874
<i>Gramps!</i>

58:52.335 --> 58:55.921
<i>Sorry! I couldn't get along with Kaigaku!</i>

58:56.255 --> 58:58.089
<i>I did write him letters and stuff!</i>

58:58.090 --> 59:00.926
<i>But he never replied!</i>

59:01.594 --> 59:05.681
<i>If it weren't for me,
Kaigaku might not have ended up like that!</i>

59:06.015 --> 59:08.392
<i>I'm really sorry! Forgive me!</i>

59:09.143 --> 59:11.936
<i>Sorry that I couldn't pay you back
for all that you did for me!</i>

59:11.937 --> 59:16.150
<i>I wanted to become a Hashira
while you were alive, but...</i>

59:16.734 --> 59:17.817
<i>Sorry!</i>

59:17.818 --> 59:20.112
<i>Sorry, Gramps!</i>

59:23.699 --> 59:25.618
<i>Do you hate me now?</i>

59:26.410 --> 59:29.121
<i>Please! Say something, Gramps!</i>

59:30.623 --> 59:31.706
<i>Dammit!</i>

59:31.707 --> 59:33.959
<i>What's this grabbing onto my legs?</i>

59:35.544 --> 59:38.714
<i>Gramps! I... I...</i>

59:40.800 --> 59:42.343
<i>Dammit!</i>

59:44.428 --> 59:46.180
<i>Zenitsu...</i>

59:53.729 --> 59:57.900
<i>You're my pride and joy.</i>

01:00:20.381 --> 01:00:21.382
Well?

01:00:21.674 --> 01:00:23.050
Can you save him?

01:00:23.342 --> 01:00:26.178
He's my acquaintance!
Find a way to save him!

01:00:26.595 --> 01:00:27.930
I'm really counting on you!

01:00:28.305 --> 01:00:30.266
Quiet down. Shut up, Murata.

01:00:30.641 --> 01:00:32.768
A lowly scrub like you...

01:00:33.144 --> 01:00:35.771
Better keep watch
so we don't get attacked.

01:00:37.148 --> 01:00:39.274
Hey you! What rank are you?

01:00:39.275 --> 01:00:41.861
If you're below me,
there'll be hell to pay!

01:00:42.570 --> 01:00:46.449
<i>I'm a demon,
so what do I care about ranks?</i>

01:00:46.907 --> 01:00:48.533
I'm using a Blood Demon styptic...

01:00:48.534 --> 01:00:51.286
but if these cracks on
his face keep spreading,

01:00:51.287 --> 01:00:53.372
it's going to rip all the
way to his eyeballs.

01:00:54.373 --> 01:00:55.916
Can you hear me?

01:01:00.129 --> 01:01:02.465
Don't say scary things
to someone so vulnerable!

01:01:02.923 --> 01:01:06.176
I'm also using a hemostatic,
but the bleeding won't stop.

01:01:06.177 --> 01:01:07.427
Stop it!

01:01:07.428 --> 01:01:09.512
I swear you'll be fine!
You'll be saved for sure!

01:01:09.513 --> 01:01:11.055
You're not gonna die!

01:01:11.056 --> 01:01:12.432
You can do it, Agatsuma!

01:01:12.433 --> 01:01:13.893
Hang in there! Hang in there!

01:01:14.852 --> 01:01:17.061
The Upper Rank that you fought

01:01:17.062 --> 01:01:20.566
still hadn't mastered
his techniques and abilities.

01:01:20.983 --> 01:01:22.943
That was a lucky break for you.

01:01:23.736 --> 01:01:27.239
If you'd fought him a year from now,
you probably would've died instantly.

01:01:28.991 --> 01:01:30.700
Stop saying stuff...

01:01:30.701 --> 01:01:32.953
that will crush his soul!

01:01:39.668 --> 01:01:43.088
I-I didn't say anything wrong!

01:01:44.590 --> 01:01:45.966
Wh-What?

01:01:46.550 --> 01:01:48.802
You yelled, so now the demons are coming.

01:01:50.930 --> 01:01:52.348
You make a good target.

01:01:54.141 --> 01:01:57.810
Hey, was your name Yushiro?
I'm leaving Agatsuma in your hands!

01:01:57.811 --> 01:01:58.938
Come on!

01:02:02.399 --> 01:02:04.734
Please defeat it
as fast as you can, Senpai.

01:02:04.735 --> 01:02:07.028
I'm going to give you
such an earful later!

01:02:07.029 --> 01:02:08.113
Dammit!

01:02:10.199 --> 01:02:12.451
<i>Water Breathing, Second Form...</i>

01:02:12.993 --> 01:02:14.036
<i>Water Wheel!</i>

01:02:17.248 --> 01:02:20.543
We're going to head them off,
so go from that direction!

01:02:37.142 --> 01:02:40.104
<i>Not good! They're going to run into one!</i>

01:02:43.482 --> 01:02:45.818
<i>We're not running into any Upper Ranks.</i>

01:02:46.193 --> 01:02:48.820
<i>Are we still far off from where Muzan is?</i>

01:02:48.821 --> 01:02:51.115
<i>Are the others still alive?</i>

01:02:53.826 --> 01:02:55.286
<i>Ms. Shinobu...</i>

01:02:56.412 --> 01:02:58.371
<i>We're going to win for sure!</i>

01:02:58.372 --> 01:02:59.998
<i>Everyone will!</i>

01:02:59.999 --> 01:03:01.625
<i>We all will!</i>

01:03:03.919 --> 01:03:05.421
What's this shaking?

01:03:05.879 --> 01:03:06.880
M-Mr. Giyu!

01:03:07.631 --> 01:03:08.632
Stop!

01:03:09.091 --> 01:03:10.259
Calm down.

01:03:12.469 --> 01:03:14.388
<i>Is someone else fighting?</i>

01:03:14.763 --> 01:03:16.849
<i>Is someone else about to die?</i>

01:03:22.938 --> 01:03:24.648
<i>No, that's not it.</i>

01:03:24.982 --> 01:03:27.359
<i>Is it coming this way?</i>

01:03:29.737 --> 01:03:32.197
<i>Th-This scent...</i>

01:03:40.664 --> 01:03:42.416
Above you! Tanjiro, fall back!

01:03:47.212 --> 01:03:49.131
Long time no see.

01:03:50.841 --> 01:03:53.552
I'm surprised you're still alive.

01:03:54.178 --> 01:03:56.471
A weakling like you...

01:03:56.472 --> 01:03:57.556
UPPER THREE

01:03:58.265 --> 01:03:59.433
Tanjiro...

01:03:59.767 --> 01:04:01.185
Kamado!

01:04:03.437 --> 01:04:06.774
Akaza!

01:04:38.972 --> 01:04:40.306
<i>Most likely...</i>

01:04:40.307 --> 01:04:44.102
<i>he's decomposing the drug
to turn him back</i>

01:04:44.103 --> 01:04:47.981
<i>into a human inside this flesh cocoon.</i>

01:04:48.732 --> 01:04:50.442
<i>Muzan Kibutsuji...</i>

01:04:50.943 --> 01:04:52.485
<i>No matter what...</i>

01:04:52.486 --> 01:04:55.280
<i>you absolutely must be destroyed!</i>

01:04:56.407 --> 01:04:58.157
<i>And yet...</i>

01:04:58.158 --> 01:04:59.827
<i>no matter what I do...</i>

01:05:07.793 --> 01:05:09.127
<i>Eventually...</i>

01:05:09.128 --> 01:05:11.380
<i>I'll be absorbed into him, as well!</i>

01:05:12.214 --> 01:05:13.589
<i>Please...</i>

01:05:13.590 --> 01:05:14.674
<i>somebody...</i>

01:05:14.675 --> 01:05:16.260
<i>come soon!</i>

01:05:17.469 --> 01:05:18.804
<i>Please!</i>

01:05:33.193 --> 01:05:38.657
<i>According to Father, should Muzan die,
the other demons will also die.</i>

01:05:40.242 --> 01:05:44.288
<i>In that case,
Muzan Kibutsuji is still alive.</i>

01:05:45.581 --> 01:05:49.835
<i>Ms. Tamayo must be suppressing
Muzan's powers.</i>

01:05:50.794 --> 01:05:53.004
<i>It's because she's suppressing them</i>

01:05:53.005 --> 01:05:55.799
<i>that he hasn't reacted
to Mr. Yushiro's eyes.</i>

01:05:56.717 --> 01:05:59.886
<i>Before Muzan's powers are revived...</i>

01:05:59.887 --> 01:06:02.598
<i>we must do whatever it takes
to defeat him.</i>

01:06:04.349 --> 01:06:05.726
<i>Still...</i>

01:06:06.101 --> 01:06:07.227
<i>inside this...</i>

01:06:07.561 --> 01:06:09.646
<i>infinite castle...</i>

01:06:10.481 --> 01:06:14.610
<i>can we really find Muzan Kibutsuji?</i>

01:06:19.782 --> 01:06:21.700
<i>No need to panic.</i>

01:06:22.326 --> 01:06:24.703
<i>You're doing a good job.</i>

01:06:26.622 --> 01:06:30.000
<i>He will show himself without fail.</i>

01:06:30.459 --> 01:06:33.170
<i>Didn't he come to me, as well?</i>

01:06:35.339 --> 01:06:37.673
<i>That's the kind of man...</i>

01:06:37.674 --> 01:06:40.594
<i>Muzan Kibutsuji is.</i>

01:06:45.432 --> 01:06:46.599
<i>Understood...</i>

01:06:46.600 --> 01:06:47.851
<i>Father.</i>

01:06:48.185 --> 01:06:50.771
<i>I will fulfill my duty, no matter what!</i>

01:06:52.439 --> 01:06:55.734
<i>We must find him before the Corps members'
strength is depleted...</i>

01:06:56.109 --> 01:06:57.986
<i>and settle this once and for all!</i>

01:07:09.164 --> 01:07:10.790
Shield them!

01:07:10.791 --> 01:07:15.711
We're going to stand our ground
and minimize the damage to the Hashira!

01:07:15.712 --> 01:07:18.215
Ahead! Please go on ahead!

01:07:18.882 --> 01:07:20.883
Stone Hashira, please hurry!

01:07:20.884 --> 01:07:22.010
You guys...

01:07:30.727 --> 01:07:33.145
Whatever you do, please defeat Kibutsuji!

01:07:33.146 --> 01:07:34.565
Please!

01:07:35.399 --> 01:07:36.691
All right.

01:07:36.692 --> 01:07:39.610
I'm counting on you all to deal with this!

01:07:39.611 --> 01:07:41.196
Tokito!

01:07:42.739 --> 01:07:46.534
Now's the time to prove
what we gained from Hashira Training!

01:07:46.535 --> 01:07:47.911
Right!

01:07:55.085 --> 01:07:57.379
<i>Thanks, all of you.</i>

01:07:58.088 --> 01:08:01.717
<i>Father, everyone's giving it their all.</i>

01:08:12.436 --> 01:08:13.770
No crying.

01:08:14.563 --> 01:08:16.481
Don't stop what you're doing,
no matter what.

01:08:16.940 --> 01:08:19.568
We're not going down in defeat.

01:08:21.069 --> 01:08:22.237
Right.

01:08:25.449 --> 01:08:28.994
Lord Kiriya is so commendable.

01:08:29.912 --> 01:08:33.081
He's still in anguish
over the loss of his father...

01:08:33.457 --> 01:08:35.918
yet he's assumed command
of the Demon Slayer Corps...

01:08:36.293 --> 01:08:39.588
and is working to fulfill his duty.

01:08:41.089 --> 01:08:43.884
Am I right, Mr. Rengoku?

01:08:45.052 --> 01:08:46.595
I agree.

01:08:48.180 --> 01:08:54.394
Look how these children of such
a tender age are rallying themselves.

01:08:55.228 --> 01:08:57.730
Like Kyojuro...

01:08:57.731 --> 01:09:00.108
in order to live up to the Rengoku name...

01:09:00.692 --> 01:09:03.528
I will protect them with my life.

01:09:16.500 --> 01:09:19.962
<i>She looks as if she's suffering.</i>

01:09:20.712 --> 01:09:26.218
<i>The demon named Tamayo, who was working
with the Master, sent over this drug.</i>

01:09:26.593 --> 01:09:29.888
<i>I've administered it as she instructed...</i>

01:09:31.098 --> 01:09:37.145
<i>but can Nezuko
actually turn back into a human?</i>

01:09:37.688 --> 01:09:43.693
<i>If Nezuko does become human again,
Muzan's scheme will collapse.</i>

01:09:43.694 --> 01:09:46.153
<i>The dream of the perfect body,</i>

01:09:46.154 --> 01:09:50.241
<i>for which he's searched
for more than a thousand years...</i>

01:09:50.242 --> 01:09:56.081
<i>his quest to conquer the sun
will be set back to square one.</i>

01:09:57.332 --> 01:10:00.751
<i>Throughout all these long years,</i>

01:10:00.752 --> 01:10:06.091
<i>Nezuko is the only demon
not to succumb to sunlight.</i>

01:10:21.773 --> 01:10:27.738
<i>The words "the final stage"
keep crossing my mind.</i>

01:10:30.449 --> 01:10:35.829
<i>And each time, I tremble at my core,
and my heart pounds.</i>

01:10:36.913 --> 01:10:41.668
<i>This long battle may finally end tonight.</i>

01:10:42.294 --> 01:10:47.424
<i>I never dreamed
that I'd be alive to see it myself.</i>

01:10:48.091 --> 01:10:49.717
<i>Tanjiro...</i>

01:10:49.718 --> 01:10:50.801
<i>Now that I think of it,</i>

01:10:50.802 --> 01:10:55.182
<i>ever since that moment when you
brought your demon sister to me...</i>

01:10:55.682 --> 01:11:02.147
<i>a great cogwheel of some kind
seems to have started turning.</i>

01:11:02.814 --> 01:11:06.108
<i>If the by-product of all our battles</i>

01:11:06.109 --> 01:11:09.154
<i>until now can be likened
to a giant machine...</i>

01:11:09.654 --> 01:11:15.911
<i>then inserting you and Nezuko
into it as two small cogs...</i>

01:11:16.328 --> 01:11:21.792
<i>is what set the stagnant situation
into motion.</i>

01:11:25.045 --> 01:11:27.881
<i>Don't lose, Nezuko!</i>

01:11:28.840 --> 01:11:31.218
<i>Don't lose, Tanjiro!</i>

01:11:32.511 --> 01:11:35.388
<i>Whatever you do, don't lose!</i>

01:11:35.889 --> 01:11:37.224
<i>Hinokami Kagura...</i>

01:11:37.808 --> 01:11:38.934
<i>Fire Wheel!</i>

01:11:42.062 --> 01:11:45.982
<i>Go! Go! Go! If I can't even sever his arm,
I'll never sever his head!</i>

01:11:52.948 --> 01:11:53.949
<i>I severed it!</i>

01:11:54.491 --> 01:11:55.866
<i>I was able to dodge his attack, too!</i>

01:11:55.867 --> 01:11:58.410
<i>I can do it! I can fight him!</i>

01:11:58.411 --> 01:12:00.038
<i>I couldn't go for his head!</i>

01:12:00.330 --> 01:12:01.540
<i>But next time...</i>

01:12:03.041 --> 01:12:04.208
<i>Hinokami Kagura...</i>

01:12:04.209 --> 01:12:05.293
<i>Fake Rainbow!</i>

01:12:21.017 --> 01:12:22.518
<i>Tanjiro...</i>

01:12:22.519 --> 01:12:25.522
<i>You've really honed your techniques.</i>

01:12:26.606 --> 01:12:31.236
<i>It wouldn't be exaggerating to say
that your skills are at Hashira level.</i>

01:12:31.945 --> 01:12:35.991
<i>You can hold your own like this
against Upper Three!</i>

01:12:41.496 --> 01:12:42.747
<i>That day...</i>

01:12:43.456 --> 01:12:45.125
<i>you'd lost all hope in the snow...</i>

01:12:45.876 --> 01:12:48.878
<i>unable to do anything
but bow your head...</i>

01:12:48.879 --> 01:12:52.257
<i>and sob as you begged
for your sister's life.</i>

01:13:00.015 --> 01:13:02.309
<i>But now you can fight.</i>

01:13:03.310 --> 01:13:08.773
<i>To keep from being robbed
of your life and dignity.</i>

01:13:10.192 --> 01:13:15.112
"This boy isn't weak! Don't insult him."

01:13:15.113 --> 01:13:19.075
I admit that Kyojuro
was right in saying that.

01:13:19.659 --> 01:13:22.369
You indeed were not weak.

01:13:22.370 --> 01:13:24.706
Hats off to you!

01:13:27.918 --> 01:13:30.003
<i>Technique Development...</i>

01:13:34.633 --> 01:13:37.385
Well, let's get this party started.

01:13:38.178 --> 01:13:40.639
It's time to have some fun.

01:14:26.810 --> 01:14:27.978
<i>Water Breathing...</i>

01:14:28.561 --> 01:14:29.646
<i>Third Form...</i>

01:14:30.105 --> 01:14:31.189
<i>Flowing Dance!</i>

01:14:32.440 --> 01:14:34.150
The Water Hashira, huh?

01:14:34.609 --> 01:14:36.110
Great...

01:14:36.111 --> 01:14:39.322
It's been 50 years
since I last ran into one!

01:14:46.788 --> 01:14:48.122
<i>Destructive Death...</i>

01:14:48.123 --> 01:14:49.916
<i>Disorder!</i>

01:14:52.127 --> 01:14:54.671
<i>Water Breathing, Eleventh Form...</i>

01:14:55.714 --> 01:14:56.840
<i>Dead Calm!</i>

01:15:02.137 --> 01:15:04.514
I've never seen that move before.

01:15:05.056 --> 01:15:08.852
The Water Hashira I killed before
didn't use it!

01:15:09.769 --> 01:15:11.270
<i>Hinokami Kagura...</i>

01:15:11.271 --> 01:15:12.647
<i>Raging Sun!</i>

01:15:14.441 --> 01:15:16.067
<i>He... vanished?</i>

01:15:17.110 --> 01:15:18.111
<i>Behind me?</i>

01:15:18.445 --> 01:15:20.113
<i>Hinokami Kagura, Fake Rain--</i>

01:15:21.323 --> 01:15:24.116
<i>Water Breathing, Second Form...</i>

01:15:24.117 --> 01:15:25.910
<i>Water Wheel!</i>

01:15:38.048 --> 01:15:39.257
<i>Hinokami Kagura...</i>

01:15:40.967 --> 01:15:42.051
<i>Flame Dance!</i>

01:15:42.052 --> 01:15:44.262
<i>Destructive Death, Leg Type...</i>

01:15:44.554 --> 01:15:46.389
<i>Crown Splitter!</i>

01:15:47.307 --> 01:15:49.267
<i>I caught it with my sword!</i>

01:15:53.897 --> 01:15:55.189
<i>Did it graze me?</i>

01:15:55.190 --> 01:15:56.398
<i>Just a bit?</i>

01:15:56.399 --> 01:15:57.984
<i>And it's this powerful?</i>

01:16:02.530 --> 01:16:03.782
That's elegant!

01:16:05.909 --> 01:16:07.910
What a polished sword skill that is!

01:16:07.911 --> 01:16:09.453
Magnificent!

01:16:09.454 --> 01:16:10.746
Tell me your name!

01:16:10.747 --> 01:16:12.498
What is your name?

01:16:12.499 --> 01:16:14.084
I want to remember you!

01:16:16.252 --> 01:16:19.005
I don't have a name to divulge to a demon!

01:16:19.339 --> 01:16:22.008
I hate talking, so don't speak to me!

01:16:22.967 --> 01:16:26.888
I see, so you're not into talking?

01:16:27.263 --> 01:16:29.349
I happen to love talking!

01:16:29.641 --> 01:16:31.518
I'm going to keep asking you, then...

01:16:31.976 --> 01:16:33.561
what your name is!

01:16:39.984 --> 01:16:41.568
<i>Destructive Death...</i>

01:16:41.569 --> 01:16:42.987
<i>Leg Type...</i>

01:16:43.279 --> 01:16:45.323
<i>Explosive Flurry!</i>

01:16:58.086 --> 01:16:59.295
Mr. Giyu!

01:17:01.047 --> 01:17:02.339
I see!

01:17:02.340 --> 01:17:05.343
So, his name is Giyu!

01:17:09.180 --> 01:17:10.514
<i>Hinokami Kagura...</i>

01:17:10.515 --> 01:17:12.141
<i>Destructive Death...</i>

01:17:12.142 --> 01:17:13.475
<i>Eight-Layered Demon Core!</i>

01:17:13.476 --> 01:17:15.478
<i>Burning Bones, Summer Sun!</i>

01:17:31.244 --> 01:17:33.203
Good moves.

01:17:33.204 --> 01:17:36.708
You did well to train to this level
in such a short time.

01:17:37.041 --> 01:17:38.877
You have my praise.

01:17:39.377 --> 01:17:43.381
Still, Kyojuro did a damn fine job.

01:17:43.798 --> 01:17:49.636
Crumpled on the ground that night,
you were an absolute weakling.

01:17:49.637 --> 01:17:52.140
You were nothing but a weed.

01:17:52.515 --> 01:17:54.183
But what do you know?

01:17:54.184 --> 01:17:56.310
Look at you now!

01:17:56.311 --> 01:17:58.479
Such eye-opening growth!

01:17:58.480 --> 01:18:00.814
I'm purely elated!

01:18:00.815 --> 01:18:02.984
This makes my heart race!

01:18:05.737 --> 01:18:09.866
I'm glad that Kyojuro died that night.

01:18:12.076 --> 01:18:16.164
Otherwise, he might never have gotten
any stronger than he was.

01:18:16.539 --> 01:18:21.628
After all, he did have those lame values,
wanting to remain a human.

01:18:23.171 --> 01:18:24.672
What did you say?

01:18:31.679 --> 01:18:32.889
You...

01:18:33.306 --> 01:18:35.183
don't say another word.

01:18:38.895 --> 01:18:42.148
Don't you dare talk about Mr. Rengoku!

01:18:42.815 --> 01:18:44.107
Why not?

01:18:44.108 --> 01:18:46.402
These are words of praise.

01:18:46.736 --> 01:18:50.239
For you, as well. For Kyojuro, too.

01:18:50.240 --> 01:18:51.573
No, they're not!

01:18:51.574 --> 01:18:53.951
All you're doing is insulting him!

01:18:53.952 --> 01:18:56.370
You're just spitting on him, that's all!

01:18:56.371 --> 01:18:58.540
On everyone!

01:18:59.249 --> 01:19:01.708
You're mistaken, Tanjiro.

01:19:01.709 --> 01:19:03.126
You see...

01:19:03.127 --> 01:19:06.714
the only thing I hate is a weakling.

01:19:07.090 --> 01:19:11.678
I would only spit on a weakling,
no one else.

01:19:12.220 --> 01:19:13.680
That's right.

01:19:14.138 --> 01:19:17.183
The weak make my skin crawl.

01:19:17.559 --> 01:19:19.435
They make me vomit.

01:19:20.186 --> 01:19:24.941
They're weeded out
due to the law of nature, nothing else.

01:19:25.692 --> 01:19:28.820
Everything you just said is wrong!

01:19:32.156 --> 01:19:36.703
Your being here now is proof of that!

01:19:37.579 --> 01:19:40.539
Everyone's a weak infant at birth!

01:19:40.540 --> 01:19:43.501
We can't stay alive
without someone else's help!

01:19:43.918 --> 01:19:46.087
That goes for you, too, Akaza.

01:19:46.963 --> 01:19:49.298
You may not remember it,

01:19:49.299 --> 01:19:50.591
but when you were a baby,

01:19:50.592 --> 01:19:53.344
you were protected
and helped by someone...

01:19:53.970 --> 01:19:56.222
and that's why you're alive now!

01:20:00.560 --> 01:20:03.687
The strong save and protect the weak!

01:20:03.688 --> 01:20:08.985
And the weak become strong and save
and protect those weaker than themselves!

01:20:09.652 --> 01:20:12.238
That's the law of nature!

01:20:12.614 --> 01:20:16.367
Akaza, I won't tolerate
your way of thinking!

01:20:16.826 --> 01:20:20.455
I won't let you have your way anymore!

01:20:25.418 --> 01:20:27.337
<i>I get it now.</i>

01:20:30.381 --> 01:20:34.927
<i>I have a deep-seated aversion to this guy.</i>

01:20:35.595 --> 01:20:39.682
<i>He's stronger, but my revulsion
for him hasn't faded!</i>

01:20:43.978 --> 01:20:45.937
<i>Whatever they do...</i>

01:20:45.938 --> 01:20:48.524
<i>everyone starts out as a baby.</i>

01:20:48.900 --> 01:20:52.278
<i>We learn by getting help
from those around us.</i>

01:20:53.196 --> 01:20:55.906
<i>We are not competing against each other.</i>

01:20:55.907 --> 01:20:59.452
<i>The opponent you're up against
will always be you yourself.</i>

01:20:59.994 --> 01:21:04.457
<i>The important thing is to become
stronger than you were yesterday.</i>

01:21:05.333 --> 01:21:08.752
<i>If you can keep that up
for a decade or two,</i>

01:21:08.753 --> 01:21:10.796
<i>that would be commendable.</i>

01:21:10.797 --> 01:21:12.340
<i>And then...</i>

01:21:12.715 --> 01:21:15.843
<i>it'll be you helping out others this time.</i>

01:21:23.309 --> 01:21:26.979
<i>What was that? He just swung at nothing.</i>

01:21:32.443 --> 01:21:33.861
Tanjiro...

01:21:34.946 --> 01:21:37.573
You repulse me after all.

01:21:38.741 --> 01:21:40.993
<i>Destructive Death, Crushing Type...</i>

01:21:41.703 --> 01:21:43.830
<i>Ten Thousand Leaves Flashing Willow!</i>

01:21:46.958 --> 01:21:48.709
<i>So fast! Insanely fast!</i>

01:21:48.710 --> 01:21:49.876
<i>No...</i>

01:21:49.877 --> 01:21:51.586
<i>it's not really about speed!</i>

01:21:51.587 --> 01:21:54.214
<i>This sensation, this precision...</i>

01:21:54.215 --> 01:21:55.466
<i>this is...</i>

01:21:59.762 --> 01:22:01.638
<i>Destructive Death, Leg Type...</i>

01:22:01.639 --> 01:22:02.765
<i>From below!</i>

01:22:05.268 --> 01:22:07.311
<i>Flying Planet Thousand Wheels!</i>

01:22:13.192 --> 01:22:16.153
<i>Even if I manage to predict
his movements and intercept the attack,</i>

01:22:16.154 --> 01:22:18.990
<i>the impact is so strong,
I can't escape unscathed!</i>

01:22:19.282 --> 01:22:21.241
<i>A technique of unparalleled precision!</i>

01:22:21.242 --> 01:22:24.412
<i>He can pierce through any opening
with the accuracy of a compass!</i>

01:22:27.415 --> 01:22:29.624
<i>It's like there are magnets
pulling his blows</i>

01:22:29.625 --> 01:22:31.836
<i>straight to the human body's vitals!</i>

01:22:32.336 --> 01:22:33.336
<i>But how?</i>

01:22:33.337 --> 01:22:34.422
<i>What is this?</i>

01:22:35.256 --> 01:22:37.883
<i>What's causing them
to be drawn in like this?</i>

01:22:37.884 --> 01:22:39.719
<i>Try to remember! Think!</i>

01:22:41.137 --> 01:22:42.805
<i>There's got to be something!</i>

01:22:43.097 --> 01:22:44.931
<i>If you can find a clue
in what Akaza has said</i>

01:22:44.932 --> 01:22:46.309
<i>and done until now...</i>

01:22:49.812 --> 01:22:50.980
<i>Hinokami Kagura...</i>

01:22:51.272 --> 01:22:52.732
<i>Solar Heat Haze!</i>

01:23:03.493 --> 01:23:05.453
Interesting technique!

01:23:05.828 --> 01:23:07.204
I know I dodged it for sure,

01:23:07.205 --> 01:23:09.498
but then it looked like
the blade extended.

01:23:09.499 --> 01:23:11.792
I don't know what kind
of swing you put on it...

01:23:11.793 --> 01:23:16.380
but the tip of your blade wavered
like it was in a heat haze! I'm intrigued!

01:23:27.558 --> 01:23:29.143
<i>Hinokami Kagura...</i>

01:23:29.894 --> 01:23:30.895
<i>Dance!</i>

01:23:33.147 --> 01:23:34.482
<i>Oh, crap!</i>

01:23:35.525 --> 01:23:36.818
<i>He's going to break it!</i>

01:23:41.614 --> 01:23:43.324
That's a good head-butt!

01:23:44.784 --> 01:23:47.411
<i>Let go! Let go! Let go!</i>

01:23:48.913 --> 01:23:52.750
<i>No good! He's not letting go!</i>

01:24:04.679 --> 01:24:06.097
Mr. Giyu!

01:24:09.934 --> 01:24:12.061
I'm furious right now.

01:24:12.478 --> 01:24:15.606
Because my back is absolutely killing me.

01:24:15.940 --> 01:24:18.776
How dare you hurl me all that distance...

01:24:19.151 --> 01:24:21.612
Upper Three?

01:24:23.906 --> 01:24:25.323
<i>Personally...</i>

01:24:25.324 --> 01:24:28.368
<i>I'd rather not draw my sword
if I can help it...</i>

01:24:28.369 --> 01:24:33.124
<i>and I don't enjoy sparring
random passersby for amusement.</i>

01:24:33.958 --> 01:24:35.834
<i>But right now...</i>

01:24:35.835 --> 01:24:37.586
<i>I can feel that facing a strong opponent</i>

01:24:37.587 --> 01:24:39.379
<i>who overwhelms me for
the first time in a while...</i>

01:24:39.380 --> 01:24:43.634
<i>has sharply honed my senses
in a short span of time.</i>

01:24:44.510 --> 01:24:47.262
<i>My dormant senses
have been rudely awakened</i>

01:24:47.263 --> 01:24:49.055
<i>and are dragging me forward.</i>

01:24:49.056 --> 01:24:51.725
<i>To the place where the strong one stands.</i>

01:24:51.726 --> 01:24:55.021
<i>I understand now
how much it expands one's potential...</i>

01:24:55.438 --> 01:24:58.190
<i>to fight to the death...</i>

01:24:58.524 --> 01:25:00.526
<i>until the very last moment.</i>

01:25:03.905 --> 01:25:05.489
Mr. Giyu...

01:25:22.381 --> 01:25:24.883
<i>A mark appeared. His speed...</i>

01:25:24.884 --> 01:25:26.344
Has increased!

01:25:31.307 --> 01:25:32.808
<i>Water Breathing, Fourth Form...</i>

01:25:33.309 --> 01:25:34.393
<i>Striking Tide!</i>

01:25:48.866 --> 01:25:50.534
<i>So fast! Both of them!</i>

01:25:50.868 --> 01:25:53.329
<i>But in response
to Mr. Giyu's speed boost...</i>

01:25:53.621 --> 01:25:55.706
<i>Akaza adapted instantly!</i>

01:25:58.167 --> 01:26:00.461
Is that the best you can do?

01:26:09.553 --> 01:26:10.888
More!

01:26:11.305 --> 01:26:13.182
Strike more attacks on me!

01:26:42.294 --> 01:26:43.546
<i>Tenth Form...</i>

01:26:44.130 --> 01:26:45.798
<i>Constant Flux!</i>

01:27:02.815 --> 01:27:04.190
<i>Seventh Form...</i>

01:27:04.191 --> 01:27:05.985
<i>Drop Ripple Thrust!</i>

01:27:06.277 --> 01:27:07.319
<i>Destructive Death...</i>

01:27:07.820 --> 01:27:09.488
<i>Disorder!</i>

01:27:20.082 --> 01:27:21.249
Mr. Giyu!

01:27:21.250 --> 01:27:22.334
Akaza!

01:27:24.712 --> 01:27:26.130
<i>Calm down!</i>

01:27:29.884 --> 01:27:32.218
<i>Think. Don't panic.</i>

01:27:32.219 --> 01:27:35.181
<i>Don't relinquish your mind
whatever you do!</i>

01:27:36.432 --> 01:27:39.894
<i>Why are Akaza's attacks
as accurate as magnets?</i>

01:27:40.978 --> 01:27:44.815
<i>Why does he unfailingly react to attacks
from behind and in his blind spots?</i>

01:27:45.941 --> 01:27:47.276
<i>Think!</i>

01:27:51.739 --> 01:27:54.200
<i>Your fighting spirit
has been honed to the hilt.</i>

01:27:54.533 --> 01:27:57.453
<i>It's close to the realm of the highest.</i>

01:27:59.872 --> 01:28:02.082
<i>Akaza used the words "fighting spirit"...</i>

01:28:02.083 --> 01:28:05.461
<i>during his battle with Mr. Rengoku.</i>

01:28:07.088 --> 01:28:08.922
<i>What's "fighting spirit"?</i>

01:28:08.923 --> 01:28:11.717
<i>As I can sense all kinds of things
through scent...</i>

01:28:12.343 --> 01:28:15.012
<i>Akaza seems to sense things
through fighting spirit.</i>

01:28:29.276 --> 01:28:33.614
<i>It tingles, you know.
Where the enemy is aiming at.</i>

01:28:33.989 --> 01:28:37.117
<i>So, that's how you knew
that Gyutaro was attacking you.</i>

01:28:37.118 --> 01:28:39.411
<i>Even though it was from behind!
That was awesome!</i>

01:28:41.497 --> 01:28:44.208
<i>Well, my skin is tougher
than most people's!</i>

01:28:44.625 --> 01:28:46.042
<i>Whether it's from behind or not,</i>

01:28:46.043 --> 01:28:49.379
<i>if someone is looking at me,
I can tell that they're looking!</i>

01:28:49.380 --> 01:28:51.090
<i>Can you show me?</i>

01:28:52.174 --> 01:28:53.259
<i>Sure thing!</i>

01:28:58.430 --> 01:29:00.014
<i>You're looking
at my right shoulder, aren't you?</i>

01:29:00.015 --> 01:29:01.684
<i>Wow! You got it!</i>

01:29:02.518 --> 01:29:04.561
<i>I can tell right away
especially if someone is looking at me</i>

01:29:04.562 --> 01:29:06.272
<i>with killing intent!</i>

01:29:06.772 --> 01:29:09.691
<i>Since anyone who could harm me
is bad news.</i>

01:29:09.692 --> 01:29:13.904
<i>Killing intent feels like it's stabbing me
through the skin.</i>

01:29:14.947 --> 01:29:16.072
<i>That's right,</i>

01:29:16.073 --> 01:29:21.537
<i>Inosuke could sense the invisible
through his honed sense of touch.</i>

01:29:22.246 --> 01:29:25.541
<i>What else did we talk about...</i>

01:29:26.083 --> 01:29:27.501
<i>that day?</i>

01:29:28.002 --> 01:29:29.377
<i>But the thing is,</i>

01:29:29.378 --> 01:29:34.090
<i>it's hard to catch onto someone
without any killing intent or hostility.</i>

01:29:34.091 --> 01:29:36.010
<i>- That tiny hag!
- Huh?</i>

01:29:36.886 --> 01:29:38.386
<i>The old hag from the house</i>

01:29:38.387 --> 01:29:41.140
<i>with the wisteria family
crest was a real terror.</i>

01:29:41.724 --> 01:29:43.559
<i>Before I knew it...</i>

01:29:45.519 --> 01:29:48.355
<i>she'd be sitting behind me
holding rice balls!</i>

01:29:49.815 --> 01:29:52.609
<i>You shouldn't call her a "hag"!
She's an elderly lady!</i>

01:29:52.610 --> 01:29:54.903
- <i>Elderly hag!
- Hey!</i>

01:29:54.904 --> 01:29:56.779
<i>That got me thinking.</i>

01:29:56.780 --> 01:29:59.908
<i>If I can sneak up without letting out
any killing intent, I won't be detected!</i>

01:29:59.909 --> 01:30:02.745
<i>Then there wouldn't be anyone
I couldn't kill!</i>

01:30:03.996 --> 01:30:05.121
<i>Hmm,</i>

01:30:05.122 --> 01:30:10.418
<i>but isn't that because she didn't have
any intention of harming you?</i>

01:30:10.419 --> 01:30:11.628
<i>I think that killing a demon</i>

01:30:11.629 --> 01:30:14.924
<i>without emitting any killing intent
would be impossible.</i>

01:30:16.884 --> 01:30:19.093
<i>Well, you're probably right.</i>

01:30:19.094 --> 01:30:22.055
<i>A half-hearted strike
without any killing intent</i>

01:30:22.056 --> 01:30:23.514
<i>couldn't cut through...</i>

01:30:23.515 --> 01:30:25.434
<i>a demon's hard neck.</i>

01:30:26.560 --> 01:30:31.982
<i>It was just a casual conversation,
but I think he was on to something bigger.</i>

01:30:33.692 --> 01:30:38.905
<i>What is it that Akaza supposedly senses
as fighting spirit?</i>

01:30:38.906 --> 01:30:40.907
<i>Is it not killing intent?</i>

01:30:40.908 --> 01:30:42.575
<i>Is it the will to fight?</i>

01:30:42.576 --> 01:30:45.871
<i>The amount of time spent training?
Or maybe the quantity?</i>

01:30:46.705 --> 01:30:49.583
<i>Is it like the way I can anticipate
movements through scent?</i>

01:30:51.377 --> 01:30:55.673
<i>Isn't there any way
that I can disrupt Akaza's compass?</i>

01:31:05.683 --> 01:31:06.766
<i>Hinokami Kagura...</i>

01:31:06.767 --> 01:31:07.851
<i>Dance!</i>

01:31:10.312 --> 01:31:12.772
Your torso is wide open...

01:31:12.773 --> 01:31:14.566
Tanjiro!

01:31:17.695 --> 01:31:18.696
<i>It's coming!</i>

01:31:31.959 --> 01:31:34.335
<i>Fighting spirit, magnet...</i>

01:31:34.336 --> 01:31:35.629
<i>compass...</i>

01:31:36.338 --> 01:31:38.382
<i>perception, killing intent...</i>

01:31:38.799 --> 01:31:39.800
<i>the impossible...</i>

01:31:40.676 --> 01:31:43.137
<i>the realm of the highest...</i>

01:31:43.679 --> 01:31:44.930
<i>I see.</i>

01:31:46.890 --> 01:31:47.933
<i>That's what it is.</i>

01:32:05.617 --> 01:32:06.868
<i>Father...</i>

01:32:06.869 --> 01:32:08.578
<i>When you perform
the Hinokami Kagura dance,</i>

01:32:08.579 --> 01:32:10.331
<i>what are you thinking?</i>

01:32:11.332 --> 01:32:14.877
<i>If it's too tiring for you, Father,
I'll take your place starting next year.</i>

01:32:15.502 --> 01:32:17.838
<i>I'm worried about your health.</i>

01:32:19.298 --> 01:32:21.633
<i>Thank you, Tanjiro.</i>

01:32:21.967 --> 01:32:27.598
<i>But I haven't found the Kagura
to be tiring for the last few years.</i>

01:32:28.599 --> 01:32:30.141
<i>I don't know how to explain it,</i>

01:32:30.142 --> 01:32:33.645
<i>but back when I first learned
it from your grandfather...</i>

01:32:33.937 --> 01:32:37.690
<i>even though I was younger, healthier
and stronger than I am now,</i>

01:32:37.691 --> 01:32:41.111
<i>I kept losing my breath,
and it was so hard.</i>

01:32:44.573 --> 01:32:47.325
<i>The Kagura performed
at the start of each year</i>

01:32:47.326 --> 01:32:50.204
<i>was passed down through
the Kamado Family lineage.</i>

01:32:50.662 --> 01:32:53.831
<i>It was a grueling event
that went on interminably</i>

01:32:53.832 --> 01:32:55.918
<i>from sunset to dawn the next morning.</i>

01:32:56.668 --> 01:33:00.338
<i>There are 12 different styles,
which are repeated until daybreak...</i>

01:33:00.339 --> 01:33:04.009
<i>hundreds, thousands,
tens of thousands of times.</i>

01:33:06.678 --> 01:33:10.891
<i>I think I was simply making
too many wasteful motions.</i>

01:33:11.266 --> 01:33:14.018
<i>The important thing
is to breathe correctly</i>

01:33:14.019 --> 01:33:15.521
<i>and to move correctly.</i>

01:33:16.271 --> 01:33:20.900
<i>To produce maximum strength
with minimal action.</i>

01:33:20.901 --> 01:33:27.366
<i>By doing that, your mind
gradually becomes transparent.</i>

01:33:27.991 --> 01:33:29.493
<i>Transparent?</i>

01:33:30.452 --> 01:33:32.161
<i>At first, you need to memorize</i>

01:33:32.162 --> 01:33:37.626
<i>all of the movements
and acquire a feel for it.</i>

01:33:38.043 --> 01:33:39.544
<i>You open up all five senses</i>

01:33:39.545 --> 01:33:45.384
<i>and become aware of the shape
of your own body vessel by vessel.</i>

01:33:47.428 --> 01:33:50.179
<i>That was the truly strenuous part.</i>

01:33:50.180 --> 01:33:52.682
<i>All you can think is that,
even if you go on struggling,</i>

01:33:52.683 --> 01:33:55.352
<i>you'll never succeed.</i>

01:33:56.103 --> 01:33:59.397
<i>After you've learned all these things
and absorbed them,</i>

01:33:59.398 --> 01:34:02.650
<i>you remove what you don't need.</i>

01:34:02.651 --> 01:34:06.404
<i>Only leave what you need
for that movement...</i>

01:34:06.405 --> 01:34:08.115
<i>and close the rest.</i>

01:34:09.366 --> 01:34:10.701
<i>Close the rest?</i>

01:34:11.118 --> 01:34:15.998
<i>You know people often close their eyes
when they're trying to hear better?</i>

01:34:16.373 --> 01:34:23.255
<i>Just like that, you pick out the things
you need the most in that moment.</i>

01:34:23.672 --> 01:34:26.466
<i>Eventually, you'll be able
to open and close</i>

01:34:26.467 --> 01:34:28.342
<i>the vessels and muscles in your body...</i>

01:34:28.343 --> 01:34:33.265
<i>as quickly and easily
as if you were blinking.</i>

01:34:34.600 --> 01:34:39.521
<i>When that happens, a path
illuminated by a bright light will open.</i>

01:34:41.440 --> 01:34:43.816
<i>When your mind becomes transparent,</i>

01:34:43.817 --> 01:34:47.445
<i>you can start to see
the Transparent World.</i>

01:34:47.446 --> 01:34:48.988
<i>But this is a domain...</i>

01:34:48.989 --> 01:34:51.657
<i>you can only reach after
you've struggled and suffered,</i>

01:34:51.658 --> 01:34:54.286
<i>pushing yourself to your limits.</i>

01:34:54.786 --> 01:34:57.039
<i>Do you think I can get there, too?</i>

01:34:57.831 --> 01:35:01.668
<i>If you keep working at it tirelessly, yes.</i>

01:35:02.002 --> 01:35:03.920
<i>Here, all done.</i>

01:35:03.921 --> 01:35:05.297
<i>Thanks!</i>

01:35:09.218 --> 01:35:11.637
<i>Ten days before my father passed away...</i>

01:35:12.012 --> 01:35:16.934
<i>a bear attacked and devoured people
on a neighboring mountain.</i>

01:35:17.476 --> 01:35:23.065
<i>We lit bonfires around the house
and put up ropes with bells on them.</i>

01:35:41.416 --> 01:35:43.085
<i>Tanjiro...</i>

01:35:47.339 --> 01:35:48.590
<i>Yes?</i>

01:35:49.841 --> 01:35:51.843
<i>Come with me.</i>

01:36:40.142 --> 01:36:47.024
<i>I'm sorry that you're hungry,
but I won't let you come any closer.</i>

01:36:47.691 --> 01:36:50.610
<i>If anyone tries to harm my family,</i>

01:36:50.611 --> 01:36:53.863
<i>I will show no mercy no matter
how many of them there are.</i>

01:36:53.864 --> 01:36:56.116
<i>Disregard my warning...</i>

01:36:59.453 --> 01:37:02.956
<i>and I will take your life.</i>

01:37:13.717 --> 01:37:17.219
<i>The bear's head,
as thick as a human torso,</i>

01:37:17.220 --> 01:37:20.641
<i>dropped to the ground
with the sound of the bells.</i>

01:37:22.517 --> 01:37:24.268
<i>My eyes couldn't follow it,</i>

01:37:24.269 --> 01:37:29.232
<i>but I think my father slashed it
twice in the blink of an eye.</i>

01:37:31.443 --> 01:37:32.860
<i>Otherwise,</i>

01:37:32.861 --> 01:37:36.657
<i>it wouldn't have been possible to chop
off its head with an axe of that breadth.</i>

01:37:37.574 --> 01:37:40.452
<i>My father's scent
never wavered in the least.</i>

01:37:40.911 --> 01:37:43.621
<i>Before and after beheading the bear,
he emitted no fear,</i>

01:37:43.622 --> 01:37:47.417
<i>no uncertainty, no killing intent.</i>

01:37:54.383 --> 01:37:56.385
<i>Did you get a good look?</i>

01:37:57.511 --> 01:38:00.430
<i>Don't forget what you just saw.</i>

01:38:03.266 --> 01:38:07.229
<i>My father wasn't one
to flaunt his strength for no reason.</i>

01:38:07.562 --> 01:38:09.439
<i>I realized this later on.</i>

01:38:09.981 --> 01:38:11.399
<i>That was...</i>

01:38:11.400 --> 01:38:13.944
<i>him letting me watch and learn.</i>

01:38:14.653 --> 01:38:18.239
<i>So that I could learn from observing
the body movements of my father...</i>

01:38:18.240 --> 01:38:20.242
<i>who could see the Transparent World.</i>

01:38:22.244 --> 01:38:26.832
<i>Just like Father, Grandfather
and Great-Grandfather...</i>

01:38:27.249 --> 01:38:29.209
<i>must've all done before me.</i>

01:38:31.086 --> 01:38:33.546
<i>You must never give up.</i>

01:38:33.547 --> 01:38:36.091
<i>Just keep thinking.</i>

01:38:36.466 --> 01:38:39.594
<i>You can break through
any wall eventually...</i>

01:38:39.928 --> 01:38:42.055
<i>with tireless effort.</i>

01:38:43.807 --> 01:38:45.683
<i>I know, Father.</i>

01:38:45.684 --> 01:38:47.144
<i>That's why...</i>

01:38:47.769 --> 01:38:51.857
<i>I was able to dodge
Akaza's magnetic, inescapable blow!</i>

01:38:55.068 --> 01:38:59.948
<i>That was probably a lethal blow
meant to kill me once and for all.</i>

01:39:00.365 --> 01:39:02.659
<i>When I was alternating moves
with Mr. Giyu...</i>

01:39:03.118 --> 01:39:05.077
<i>I could take momentary breaks...</i>

01:39:05.078 --> 01:39:09.040
<i>and he protected me
from the potentially mortal blows!</i>

01:39:09.583 --> 01:39:13.336
<i>But in that instant,
even Mr. Giyu couldn't make it in time!</i>

01:39:14.629 --> 01:39:17.673
<i>However, for some reason...</i>

01:39:17.674 --> 01:39:20.177
<i>in that moment, it didn't feel impossible.</i>

01:39:20.844 --> 01:39:22.929
<i>I felt it for just a split second.</i>

01:39:23.305 --> 01:39:25.557
<i>I was able to enter it
for just a split second.</i>

01:39:26.683 --> 01:39:28.101
<i>That world.</i>

01:39:32.397 --> 01:39:34.524
<i>The Transparent World.</i>

01:39:36.985 --> 01:39:39.988
<i>His body looked transparent.</i>

01:39:41.198 --> 01:39:44.910
<i>The same as when Hantengu
was hiding inside his own heart.</i>

01:39:45.577 --> 01:39:48.079
<i>I don't know if I was able
to see him or if I smelled him.</i>

01:39:53.043 --> 01:39:54.418
<i>Dodge.</i>

01:39:54.419 --> 01:39:57.714
<i>I focused on just that,
and I closed off all other senses.</i>

01:39:58.006 --> 01:40:01.760
<i>My body moved faster
than it ever had before.</i>

01:40:03.345 --> 01:40:04.887
<i>When I'm able to enter
the Transparent World</i>

01:40:04.888 --> 01:40:06.639
<i>that Father told me about,</i>

01:40:06.640 --> 01:40:07.973
<i>my ability to predict movements,</i>

01:40:07.974 --> 01:40:10.602
<i>and the speed of my
attacks improve dramatically!</i>

01:40:12.270 --> 01:40:14.146
<i>I can see my opponent's lungs moving...</i>

01:40:14.147 --> 01:40:17.107
<i>his vessels flowing and contracting
through his body.</i>

01:40:17.108 --> 01:40:19.276
<i>I can even see my own muscles contracting.</i>

01:40:19.277 --> 01:40:20.403
<i>Faster...</i>

01:40:20.779 --> 01:40:22.405
<i>and even clearer!</i>

01:40:26.451 --> 01:40:28.702
<i>I may be able to close off
the fighting spirit</i>

01:40:28.703 --> 01:40:30.746
<i>that Akaza is likely detecting...</i>

01:40:30.747 --> 01:40:33.166
<i>and aim for his head!</i>

01:40:45.971 --> 01:40:47.264
<i>See it.</i>

01:40:47.722 --> 01:40:48.807
<i>See it!</i>

01:40:52.269 --> 01:40:55.772
It looks like you've thrown
every last Water Form you have at me.

01:40:56.606 --> 01:40:59.526
That's enough, Giyu.

01:40:59.860 --> 01:41:01.652
Let's end this!

01:41:01.653 --> 01:41:04.322
I'm impressed that you held out this long!

01:41:06.324 --> 01:41:07.742
<i>No way!</i>

01:41:08.201 --> 01:41:10.287
<i>In the middle of the downswing...</i>

01:41:12.038 --> 01:41:13.582
<i>he snapped it...</i>

01:41:15.417 --> 01:41:17.419
<i>from the side!</i>

01:41:17.711 --> 01:41:18.795
Farewell.

01:41:49.242 --> 01:41:52.578
<i>He slashed his arm amidst his strike
and stopped him.</i>

01:41:52.579 --> 01:41:54.538
<i>The sound of his breathing is different.</i>

01:41:54.539 --> 01:41:56.583
<i>His hair and eyes, too!</i>

01:41:57.459 --> 01:41:59.711
<i>I've been saved by Tanjiro.</i>

01:42:01.379 --> 01:42:04.924
<i>Every cell in my body,
right down to the tips of my hairs,</i>

01:42:04.925 --> 01:42:08.428
<i>is telling me to kill him this instant.</i>

01:42:09.804 --> 01:42:12.766
<i>He's undergone some kind of change.</i>

01:42:14.225 --> 01:42:15.602
<i>He's dangerous.</i>

01:42:17.312 --> 01:42:19.981
<i>He's focusing on Tanjiro.</i>

01:42:20.565 --> 01:42:22.108
<i>Now's my chance!</i>

01:42:26.488 --> 01:42:29.240
<i>Technique Development Final Form...</i>

01:42:29.991 --> 01:42:32.744
<i>Blue Silver Chaotic Afterglow!</i>

01:42:35.705 --> 01:42:38.040
<i>He's boosting his attack speed again!</i>

01:42:38.041 --> 01:42:40.168
<i>The force is increasing!</i>

01:42:40.460 --> 01:42:41.878
<i>Can I take it...</i>

01:42:42.379 --> 01:42:43.546
<i>with Dead Calm?</i>

01:43:05.652 --> 01:43:08.071
<i>This is what Father was talking about.</i>

01:43:08.780 --> 01:43:09.990
<i>This is...</i>

01:43:10.657 --> 01:43:12.367
<i>the Transparent World!</i>

01:43:20.875 --> 01:43:22.251
<i>What's this?</i>

01:43:22.252 --> 01:43:23.586
<i>It's so strange.</i>

01:43:23.962 --> 01:43:26.381
<i>Time is passing by so slowly.</i>

01:43:28.591 --> 01:43:29.759
<i>No...</i>

01:43:30.343 --> 01:43:33.430
<i>is it just that the movements look slow?</i>

01:43:39.477 --> 01:43:41.020
<i>Unavoidable.</i>

01:43:41.021 --> 01:43:44.399
<i>He made 100 blows almost simultaneously.</i>

01:43:44.899 --> 01:43:49.279
<i>I couldn't block them all
even with Dead Calm.</i>

01:43:50.989 --> 01:43:52.614
That was impressive.

01:43:52.615 --> 01:43:55.410
As expected, you survived.

01:43:55.744 --> 01:43:59.164
It looks like you managed
to evade any fatal blows.

01:43:59.456 --> 01:44:03.292
No need for you to die
like Kyojuro and Tanjiro.

01:44:03.293 --> 01:44:06.671
You should become a demon, too, Giyu!

01:44:08.256 --> 01:44:09.923
<i>He hasn't noticed!</i>

01:44:09.924 --> 01:44:12.009
<i>That Tanjiro's behind him!</i>

01:44:12.010 --> 01:44:16.930
<i>Does he have no presence?
This is...</i>

01:44:16.931 --> 01:44:19.516
<i>Tanjiro, slash him!</i>

01:44:19.517 --> 01:44:21.394
<i>If you can still move, go for it!</i>

01:44:22.020 --> 01:44:23.687
<i>Before he notices you!</i>

01:44:23.688 --> 01:44:25.190
<i>Take his head!</i>

01:44:25.690 --> 01:44:29.069
Akaza! I'm going to behead you now!

01:44:35.200 --> 01:44:37.994
<i>He gave himself away?</i>

01:44:38.369 --> 01:44:39.788
<i>He's alive?</i>

01:44:40.580 --> 01:44:44.501
<i>I never dreamed
that after that attack, he'd still...</i>

01:44:44.834 --> 01:44:46.752
<i>No, it's not a big deal!</i>

01:44:46.753 --> 01:44:51.382
<i>My Destructive Death, Compass Needle
can detect any attack!</i>

01:44:51.716 --> 01:44:54.593
<i>The stronger
my opponent's fighting spirit is,</i>

01:44:54.594 --> 01:44:57.514
<i>the greater my Compass Needle's reaction!</i>

01:45:01.184 --> 01:45:03.019
<i>What is that?</i>

01:45:03.561 --> 01:45:05.980
<i>What's that bizarre presence?</i>

01:45:06.523 --> 01:45:09.525
<i>It's like he's turned into
some other creature!</i>

01:45:09.526 --> 01:45:11.236
<i>This guy...</i>

01:45:12.320 --> 01:45:14.154
<i>His fighting spirit's gone!</i>

01:45:14.155 --> 01:45:15.824
<i>He has no fighting spirit!</i>

01:45:16.116 --> 01:45:17.700
<i>Calm down!</i>

01:45:18.076 --> 01:45:19.327
<i>He's coming!</i>

01:45:25.500 --> 01:45:27.252
<i>Hinokami Kagura...</i>

01:45:27.710 --> 01:45:29.963
<i>Setting Sun Transformation.</i>

01:45:51.484 --> 01:45:54.404
<i>Im... possible!</i>

01:46:01.161 --> 01:46:03.328
<i>In the last several hundred years,</i>

01:46:03.329 --> 01:46:07.417
<i>I've never once seen a human
without any fighting spirit!</i>

01:46:07.876 --> 01:46:11.129
<i>Even newborns have traces of it!</i>

01:46:11.588 --> 01:46:18.052
<i>And yet, in that instant,
his fighting spirit completely vanished!</i>

01:46:21.431 --> 01:46:26.059
<i>It was like I was facing
an anomaly that shouldn't be there...</i>

01:46:26.060 --> 01:46:28.770
<i>and my senses were thrown into confusion.</i>

01:46:28.771 --> 01:46:32.192
<i>My Compass Needle detected nothing.</i>

01:46:34.068 --> 01:46:36.778
<i>But that's not the issue here!</i>

01:46:36.779 --> 01:46:38.405
<i>On the battlefield,</i>

01:46:38.406 --> 01:46:43.619
<i>you must instantly understand
the unforeseen and the unexpected...</i>

01:46:43.620 --> 01:46:45.871
<i>and deal with them then and there!</i>

01:46:45.872 --> 01:46:48.208
<i>I have the ability to do that!</i>

01:46:49.334 --> 01:46:51.753
<i>Or so I thought.</i>

01:46:52.712 --> 01:46:55.881
<i>But during this short battle,</i>

01:46:55.882 --> 01:47:00.136
<i>he grasped something
and surpassed my speed!</i>

01:47:00.511 --> 01:47:04.681
<i>The very best of martial arts,
honed over several centuries...</i>

01:47:04.682 --> 01:47:07.352
<i>He shattered them with a head-on attack!</i>

01:47:08.019 --> 01:47:12.731
<i>There was no hatred or rage in his eyes...</i>

01:47:12.732 --> 01:47:15.610
<i>no killing intent
or fighting spirit, either!</i>

01:47:16.152 --> 01:47:21.198
<i>Most likely, those eyes
had perceived what I've been seeking...</i>

01:47:21.199 --> 01:47:23.785
<i>the realm of the highest!</i>

01:47:25.036 --> 01:47:28.373
<i>None other than the selfless state.</i>

01:47:29.666 --> 01:47:34.795
<i>I've had a vague sense
that this state existed...</i>

01:47:34.796 --> 01:47:39.259
<i>but I've never yet managed to attain it.</i>

01:47:48.685 --> 01:47:50.143
<i>I'm not done yet!</i>

01:47:50.144 --> 01:47:52.104
<i>I can still fight!</i>

01:47:52.105 --> 01:47:54.857
<i>I can still become stronger!</i>

01:48:00.989 --> 01:48:04.200
<i>Is he trying to... reattach his head?</i>

01:48:13.167 --> 01:48:14.836
<i>I can't let it end!</i>

01:48:16.921 --> 01:48:19.382
<i>Not here!</i>

01:48:21.592 --> 01:48:23.803
<i>I'm going to get stronger!</i>

01:48:26.347 --> 01:48:29.684
<i>I've got to become stronger
than anyone else!</i>

01:48:30.059 --> 01:48:31.936
<i>Stronger!</i>

01:48:33.938 --> 01:48:37.483
<i>Even stronger.</i>

01:48:46.701 --> 01:48:48.160
<i>It disintegrated!</i>

01:48:48.161 --> 01:48:49.620
<i>It's over now!</i>

01:48:51.372 --> 01:48:52.832
<i>We won!</i>

01:48:57.712 --> 01:48:59.714
<i>I'm so dizzy...</i>

01:49:01.299 --> 01:49:03.009
<i>My muscles are cramping.</i>

01:49:03.343 --> 01:49:05.720
<i>My body's reached its limit!</i>

01:49:07.972 --> 01:49:09.599
Are you all right? Tanjiro--

01:49:11.642 --> 01:49:14.145
<i>His body isn't disintegrating!</i>

01:49:14.520 --> 01:49:15.896
<i>Does this...</i>

01:49:15.897 --> 01:49:17.857
- <i>Does this mean...</i>
- Tan--

01:49:29.452 --> 01:49:30.786
<i>He's still moving!</i>

01:49:30.787 --> 01:49:32.497
<i>His body's not crumbling!</i>

01:49:32.789 --> 01:49:35.208
<i>The severed part is closing up!</i>

01:49:38.252 --> 01:49:39.837
<i>So dizzy...</i>

01:49:52.725 --> 01:49:55.352
<i>No way... No way!</i>

01:49:55.353 --> 01:49:57.647
<i>Even after I cut off his head,
he still won't die?</i>

01:49:57.980 --> 01:49:59.606
<i>Is there some kind of condition to meet?</i>

01:49:59.607 --> 01:50:01.317
<i>Like with Gyutaro and Daki?</i>

01:50:01.651 --> 01:50:02.652
<i>No, that's not it.</i>

01:50:02.985 --> 01:50:04.821
<i>His head crumbled and disappeared!</i>

01:50:05.196 --> 01:50:07.156
<i>He's trying to change right now!</i>

01:50:07.490 --> 01:50:08.532
<i>Akaza's also...</i>

01:50:08.533 --> 01:50:10.243
<i>trying to evolve into something else!</i>

01:50:17.083 --> 01:50:21.212
<i>He's trying to become like Muzan,
whose head is not his weak point!</i>

01:50:22.130 --> 01:50:23.964
This battle isn't over!

01:50:23.965 --> 01:50:26.466
The fight is still--

01:50:26.467 --> 01:50:27.718
Tanjiro!

01:50:28.052 --> 01:50:29.636
<i>He fainted!</i>

01:50:29.637 --> 01:50:30.972
<i>Well, of course!</i>

01:50:31.305 --> 01:50:33.558
<i>He's long since blown past his limit!</i>

01:50:43.151 --> 01:50:44.569
<i>Water Breathing...</i>

01:50:45.069 --> 01:50:46.404
<i>Fourth Form...</i>

01:50:49.240 --> 01:50:50.575
<i>Striking Tide!</i>

01:50:55.663 --> 01:50:57.081
<i>He's regenerating!</i>

01:50:57.415 --> 01:51:01.085
<i>Even after losing his head,
his speed is...</i>

01:51:24.692 --> 01:51:27.277
<i>I can't hear a thing out of my left ear.</i>

01:51:27.278 --> 01:51:29.739
<i>I have no sensation in my right hand.</i>

01:51:30.698 --> 01:51:34.285
<i>I can still grip with it,
but I don't know how useful I'll be.</i>

01:51:43.085 --> 01:51:44.378
Hold it!

01:51:45.046 --> 01:51:46.214
I...

01:51:46.964 --> 01:51:48.256
I'm...

01:51:48.257 --> 01:51:50.509
still alive!

01:51:50.510 --> 01:51:54.847
If you want to kill Tanjiro,
you'll have to defeat me first!

01:51:59.185 --> 01:52:01.436
<i>An indomitable spirit...</i>

01:52:01.437 --> 01:52:05.858
<i>It will never bend
no matter what crisis it finds itself in.</i>

01:52:06.734 --> 01:52:09.444
<i>We're not samurai.</i>

01:52:09.445 --> 01:52:11.488
<i>We don't carry swords.</i>

01:52:11.489 --> 01:52:15.159
<i>But we always carry swords in our hearts.</i>

01:52:16.285 --> 01:52:19.455
<i>But we always carry swords in our hearts.</i>

01:52:20.414 --> 01:52:21.790
<i>All we use...</i>

01:52:21.791 --> 01:52:23.834
<i>are our own fists.</i>

01:52:25.628 --> 01:52:27.504
<i>You are...</i>

01:52:27.505 --> 01:52:28.965
<i>an eyesore!</i>

01:52:39.267 --> 01:52:40.726
<i>Please stop.</i>

01:52:46.941 --> 01:52:48.442
<i>Who is that?</i>

01:52:54.073 --> 01:52:55.865
<i>Mr. Hakuji...</i>

01:52:55.866 --> 01:52:58.077
<i>Please stop already!</i>

01:53:00.913 --> 01:53:02.581
<i>Let go.</i>

01:53:02.582 --> 01:53:04.834
<i>Let go of my hand!</i>

01:53:05.209 --> 01:53:07.253
<i>Who the hell are you?</i>

01:53:08.963 --> 01:53:11.757
<i>Let's stop this right now!</i>

01:53:12.216 --> 01:53:14.969
<i>Let's go to the other side!</i>

01:53:15.428 --> 01:53:17.012
<i>I can't.</i>

01:53:17.013 --> 01:53:20.391
<i>I've got to kill those two!</i>

01:53:21.851 --> 01:53:23.811
<i>Why is that?</i>

01:53:24.478 --> 01:53:27.898
<i>I've got to become stronger!</i>

01:53:28.357 --> 01:53:31.277
<i>I'll kill anyone who gets in my way!</i>

01:53:32.278 --> 01:53:34.447
<i>Why is that?</i>

01:53:35.072 --> 01:53:38.409
<i>Why do you wish to become stronger?</i>

01:53:39.702 --> 01:53:41.329
<i>Because...</i>

01:53:41.871 --> 01:53:44.164
<i>unless I'm strong...</i>

01:53:44.165 --> 01:53:47.793
<i>I can't bring it back home
for him anymore!</i>

01:53:49.420 --> 01:53:52.298
<i>The medicine for my dad!</i>

01:53:53.799 --> 01:53:56.177
<i>I've got to become stronger...</i>

01:53:58.346 --> 01:54:01.974
<i>or I won't be able to run off
with the wallet I stole!</i>

01:54:03.517 --> 01:54:05.268
<i>I've got to become stronger...</i>

01:54:05.269 --> 01:54:07.980
<i>or I won't be able to defeat them
when they retaliate!</i>

01:54:08.981 --> 01:54:10.899
<i>I've got to become stronger...</i>

01:54:10.900 --> 01:54:14.820
<i>or I'll get caught by the magistrate
and lashed as punishment!</i>

01:54:17.907 --> 01:54:22.078
<i>You've already got three tattoos
for pickpocketing on both arms!</i>

01:54:22.453 --> 01:54:24.955
<i>Next time,
we're going to chop off your hands!</i>

01:54:32.755 --> 01:54:35.006
<i>Lower your head! Kneel more!</i>

01:54:35.007 --> 01:54:37.051
<i>Go ahead and chop them off!</i>

01:54:37.426 --> 01:54:40.095
<i>Even if you chop both hands off,
I'll still have my feet!</i>

01:54:40.096 --> 01:54:42.472
<i>I'll use my feet to steal!</i>

01:54:42.473 --> 01:54:45.810
<i>Regardless,
I'm not gonna get caught next time!</i>

01:54:47.812 --> 01:54:51.315
<i>A repeat offender
at the tender age of 11...</i>

01:54:51.774 --> 01:54:53.942
<i>And all this bravado
after taking 100 lashes</i>

01:54:53.943 --> 01:54:56.821
<i>that would make grown men faint!</i>

01:54:57.780 --> 01:54:59.531
<i>You're a demon child!</i>

01:54:59.532 --> 01:55:01.783
<i>Call me whatever you want!</i>

01:55:01.784 --> 01:55:04.494
<i>That's right, I'm a demon child!</i>

01:55:04.495 --> 01:55:07.789
<i>They say I already had teeth
when I was born after all!</i>

01:55:07.790 --> 01:55:08.873
<i>Insolent boy!</i>

01:55:08.874 --> 01:55:10.125
<i>You little punk!</i>

01:55:10.126 --> 01:55:13.212
<i>"Demon child" is fine by me, you bastards!</i>

01:55:14.004 --> 01:55:20.010
SOUTH TOWN MAGISTRATE'S OFFICE

01:55:22.763 --> 01:55:24.181
<i>Hakuji!</i>

01:55:24.557 --> 01:55:26.182
<i>Hakuji!</i>

01:55:26.183 --> 01:55:32.313
<i>Your father heard that you'd been caught
stealing again, and he hanged himself!</i>

01:55:32.314 --> 01:55:35.443
<i>He's dead!</i>

01:55:40.072 --> 01:55:41.866
<i>Dear Hakuji...</i>

01:55:43.159 --> 01:55:45.244
<i>Live an honest life.</i>

01:55:45.911 --> 01:55:48.038
<i>You can still start over.</i>

01:55:55.296 --> 01:55:57.380
<i>So, the poor...</i>

01:55:57.381 --> 01:56:00.634
<i>aren't even allowed to live?</i>

01:56:05.431 --> 01:56:06.891
<i>Dad...</i>

01:56:09.226 --> 01:56:12.897
<i>To hell with this rotten world!</i>

01:56:15.983 --> 01:56:18.109
<i>Every last one of you...</i>

01:56:18.110 --> 01:56:20.070
<i>You can all just die and rot in hell!</i>

01:56:23.824 --> 01:56:26.869
<i>Why do scumbags like these get to live...</i>

01:56:27.244 --> 01:56:30.456
<i>when my dad had to go and die?</i>

01:56:30.998 --> 01:56:33.082
<i>You weren't causing any trouble!</i>

01:56:33.083 --> 01:56:35.461
<i>Why would you apologize?</i>

01:56:35.795 --> 01:56:38.589
<i>You didn't do anything wrong, Dad!</i>

01:56:41.550 --> 01:56:45.512
<i>I didn't even mind
getting lashed for stealing!</i>

01:56:45.513 --> 01:56:49.349
<i>Even if they beat me black-and-blue
or broke my bones...</i>

01:56:49.350 --> 01:56:51.227
<i>I could take it all for you, Dad!</i>

01:56:51.519 --> 01:56:52.644
<i>For centuries, even!</i>

01:56:52.645 --> 01:56:53.978
<i>Repent!</i>

01:56:53.979 --> 01:56:55.356
<i>Earn an honest living!</i>

01:56:56.232 --> 01:56:59.108
<i>Why don't you shut up, scum?</i>

01:56:59.109 --> 01:57:00.986
<i>I don't have enough money.</i>

01:57:01.362 --> 01:57:04.240
<i>Medicine costs a lot!</i>

01:57:05.407 --> 01:57:09.495
<i>My dad was getting thinner and thinner.</i>

01:57:10.120 --> 01:57:13.374
<i>The bones were starting
to jut out of his back.</i>

01:57:13.749 --> 01:57:17.044
<i>I want him to have something
more nutritious to eat!</i>

01:57:19.213 --> 01:57:21.799
<i>I would've been happy to die...</i>

01:57:24.218 --> 01:57:26.345
<i>if it were for my dad's sake!</i>

01:57:32.393 --> 01:57:33.769
<i>For my...</i>

01:57:34.562 --> 01:57:36.188
<i>dad's sake!</i>

01:57:44.530 --> 01:57:47.408
<i>Oh, wow! That is impressive!</i>

01:57:47.825 --> 01:57:51.452
<i>I was called here because someone said
a child was about to be killed,</i>

01:57:51.453 --> 01:57:55.290
<i>but you've flattened seven grown-ups
with your bare fists.</i>

01:57:55.291 --> 01:57:57.750
<i>You've got talent, kid!</i>

01:57:57.751 --> 01:58:01.421
<i>To take on grown-ups unarmed
and still win!</i>

01:58:01.422 --> 01:58:04.383
<i>That's what I like to see!</i>

01:58:06.176 --> 01:58:08.428
<i>Who the hell is that?</i>

01:58:08.429 --> 01:58:10.764
<i>What am I seeing?</i>

01:58:11.599 --> 01:58:13.892
<i>Are these my memories?</i>

01:58:13.893 --> 01:58:16.019
<i>Wanna join my dojo?</i>

01:58:16.020 --> 01:58:18.354
<i>I don't have any students.</i>

01:58:18.355 --> 01:58:20.315
<i>Shut up, you stupid old geezer!</i>

01:58:20.316 --> 01:58:21.858
<i>I'll kill you!</i>

01:58:21.859 --> 01:58:23.611
<i>Those tattoos tell me...</i>

01:58:23.944 --> 01:58:26.112
<i>that you're a criminal from Edo, right?</i>

01:58:26.113 --> 01:58:30.658
<i>So, you've been banished from Edo,
and you ended up here?</i>

01:58:30.659 --> 01:58:32.952
<i>So, what if I did?</i>

01:58:32.953 --> 01:58:35.288
<i>That's none of your business!</i>

01:58:35.289 --> 01:58:39.376
<i>Yes! First off,
time to be reborn, young man.</i>

01:58:39.877 --> 01:58:41.337
<i>All right, bring it!</i>

01:58:42.338 --> 01:58:43.339
<i>You...</i>

01:58:43.839 --> 01:58:45.758
<i>drop dead, you old fart!</i>

01:59:04.276 --> 01:59:05.610
SORYU DOJO

01:59:05.611 --> 01:59:08.571
<i>Well, you sure are durable.</i>

01:59:08.572 --> 01:59:13.618
<i>After that pummeling I gave you,
you came to in less than an hour.</i>

01:59:13.619 --> 01:59:15.453
<i>I'm Keizo.</i>

01:59:15.454 --> 01:59:18.081
<i>I run a dojo where I teach</i>

01:59:18.082 --> 01:59:20.042
<i>the Soryu Style of
fighting with bare hands.</i>

01:59:20.542 --> 01:59:23.586
<i>But I don't have a single student...</i>

01:59:23.587 --> 01:59:27.883
<i>so I earn a living
as a handyman, doing odd jobs.</i>

01:59:30.219 --> 01:59:35.473
<i>The first thing I want you to do
is look after my sickly daughter.</i>

01:59:35.474 --> 01:59:39.561
<i>Since I have work,
I'd like to leave her in your care.</i>

01:59:40.020 --> 01:59:44.316
<i>My wife drowned herself the other day
due to nursing fatigue.</i>

01:59:45.484 --> 01:59:47.945
<i>I'm really at my wits' end
as you can see.</i>

01:59:51.490 --> 01:59:54.242
<i>Really, thanks to my incompetence...</i>

01:59:54.243 --> 01:59:57.413
<i>both my wife and daughter have suffered.</i>

01:59:59.540 --> 02:00:01.666
<i>Are you sure you want
to leave a criminal like me</i>

02:00:01.667 --> 02:00:04.920
<i>alone with your daughter?</i>

02:00:06.422 --> 02:00:10.718
<i>I pummeled
the criminal out of you earlier...</i>

02:00:11.051 --> 02:00:12.302
<i>so it's fine.</i>

02:00:15.305 --> 02:00:17.057
<i>They're alike.</i>

02:00:24.648 --> 02:00:26.358
<i>I get it now.</i>

02:00:28.068 --> 02:00:31.320
<i>The reason you repulsed me...</i>

02:00:31.321 --> 02:00:36.201
<i>was because you reminded me
of my worthless past.</i>

02:00:40.581 --> 02:00:43.292
<i>This is my daughter, Koyuki.</i>

02:00:45.919 --> 02:00:48.380
<i>My worthless past...</i>

02:00:51.759 --> 02:00:54.386
<i>Worthless...</i>

02:01:02.227 --> 02:01:03.811
<i>Hakuji...</i>

02:01:03.812 --> 02:01:05.814
<i>I'm so sorry.</i>

02:01:07.399 --> 02:01:08.984
<i>How are you, Koyuki?</i>

02:01:11.070 --> 02:01:12.905
<i>Is it okay for you to be up?</i>

02:01:13.530 --> 02:01:15.240
<i>Yes.</i>

02:01:15.616 --> 02:01:18.702
<i>You're right, you have more color
than you did this morning.</i>

02:01:19.286 --> 02:01:20.746
<i>Do you feel a bit better?</i>

02:01:21.121 --> 02:01:22.456
<i>Yes.</i>

02:01:23.707 --> 02:01:25.959
<i>Oh, him?</i>

02:01:26.293 --> 02:01:28.170
<i>His name is...</i>

02:01:28.629 --> 02:01:31.422
<i>I've asked him numerous times,
but he won't tell me.</i>

02:01:31.423 --> 02:01:33.634
<i>Hey, don't just stand out there!</i>

02:01:35.135 --> 02:01:36.595
<i>Have a seat here.</i>

02:01:38.222 --> 02:01:41.600
<i>All right, get it out of him
before I get home!</i>

02:01:52.736 --> 02:01:53.946
<i>Um...</i>

02:01:54.613 --> 02:01:57.908
<i>Y-Your face...</i>

02:01:58.367 --> 02:01:59.743
<i>You're hurt.</i>

02:02:00.119 --> 02:02:01.578
<i>Are you all right?</i>

02:02:05.040 --> 02:02:06.999
<i>I'll heal you for sure.</i>

02:02:07.000 --> 02:02:08.543
<i>I'll save you...</i>

02:02:08.544 --> 02:02:09.962
<i>protect you...</i>

02:02:10.879 --> 02:02:15.591
<i>All I ever did in my worthless life...</i>

02:02:15.592 --> 02:02:17.970
<i>was spew baseless lies.</i>

02:02:34.194 --> 02:02:36.321
<i>Thank you.</i>

02:02:37.322 --> 02:02:40.032
<i>You don't have to thank me
every single time.</i>

02:02:40.033 --> 02:02:42.369
<i>Don't worry about it. Go to sleep.</i>

02:02:43.620 --> 02:02:45.621
<i>I'm sorry...</i>

02:02:45.622 --> 02:02:47.582
<i>for causing you trouble.</i>

02:02:47.583 --> 02:02:49.585
<i>I said it was all right.</i>

02:02:51.712 --> 02:02:54.339
<i>Do you want me to shut this?</i>

02:02:54.882 --> 02:02:56.424
<i>No...</i>

02:02:56.425 --> 02:02:59.094
<i>you can leave it as is.</i>

02:03:00.596 --> 02:03:03.849
<i>Koyuki was truly delicate and frail.</i>

02:03:04.892 --> 02:03:07.143
<i>I had to stay with her all night...</i>

02:03:07.144 --> 02:03:10.731
<i>change the towels
for her forehead and her nightgown...</i>

02:03:11.023 --> 02:03:13.316
<i>and give her water frequently.</i>

02:03:13.317 --> 02:03:18.238
<i>When she needed to use the restroom,
it was a given I had to carry her there.</i>

02:03:21.575 --> 02:03:25.536
<i>I'd already been taking care of my dad,</i>

02:03:25.537 --> 02:03:29.123
<i>and since I had extraordinary
physical endurance,</i>

02:03:29.124 --> 02:03:31.752
<i>it really wasn't a hardship for me.</i>

02:03:35.964 --> 02:03:38.592
<i>Sorry to make you do this every day.</i>

02:03:45.307 --> 02:03:50.395
<i>Why do people suffering from illness
always say they're sorry?</i>

02:03:51.063 --> 02:03:53.731
<i>"Sorry to put you through all this."</i>

02:03:53.732 --> 02:03:56.902
<i>"Sorry the sound
of my coughing bothers you."</i>

02:03:57.277 --> 02:04:00.614
<i>"Sorry I can't work like I should."</i>

02:04:02.491 --> 02:04:05.451
<i>They'd rather care
for themselves if they could.</i>

02:04:05.452 --> 02:04:07.620
<i>And it's not like they can
just stop coughing.</i>

02:04:07.621 --> 02:04:10.415
<i>If they could breathe normally,
they would.</i>

02:04:11.124 --> 02:04:15.545
<i>They're the ones
who must be suffering the most.</i>

02:04:18.257 --> 02:04:20.800
<i>Sorry again.</i>

02:04:20.801 --> 02:04:25.471
<i>You can't even train because of me...</i>

02:04:25.472 --> 02:04:28.058
<i>and you can't go play.</i>

02:04:28.684 --> 02:04:32.646
<i>I don't want to go play. I never have.</i>

02:04:33.188 --> 02:04:37.442
<i>I train in my spare time here and there,
so don't worry about it.</i>

02:04:38.694 --> 02:04:40.195
<i>But...</i>

02:04:40.612 --> 02:04:44.074
<i>you must want a change
of scenery sometimes.</i>

02:04:44.449 --> 02:04:48.035
<i>I hear they're setting off
fireworks tonight...</i>

02:04:48.036 --> 02:04:50.080
<i>so, please, go.</i>

02:04:51.081 --> 02:04:52.915
<i>Right.</i>

02:04:52.916 --> 02:04:55.334
<i>If you're not dizzy by then,</i>

02:04:55.335 --> 02:04:58.839
<i>shall I carry you on my back
to just before the bridge?</i>

02:04:59.172 --> 02:05:00.215
<i>What?</i>

02:05:03.885 --> 02:05:05.845
<i>Even if you can't go today,</i>

02:05:05.846 --> 02:05:09.015
<i>they'll be setting off fireworks
next year and the year after,</i>

02:05:09.016 --> 02:05:11.393
<i>so we can just go then.</i>

02:05:19.943 --> 02:05:23.529
<i>The only time I found nursing
to be a hassle...</i>

02:05:23.530 --> 02:05:29.119
<i>was when Koyuki started sobbing
while we were talking.</i>

02:05:29.619 --> 02:05:32.663
<i>I'm sure she was feeling down,
sick in bed...</i>

02:05:32.664 --> 02:05:36.418
<i>but it made me uncomfortable
when she cried.</i>

02:05:37.627 --> 02:05:40.130
SORYU

02:05:51.558 --> 02:05:53.435
<i>Oh, I get it.</i>

02:05:53.894 --> 02:05:55.895
<i>This is the character
for the "haku" in your name?</i>

02:05:55.896 --> 02:05:57.938
<i>It's the same as the "koma" in komainu.</i>

02:05:57.939 --> 02:05:59.440
<i>That makes sense.</i>

02:05:59.441 --> 02:06:01.901
<i>Just as I thought, you're the same as me.</i>

02:06:01.902 --> 02:06:05.112
<i>You can't get by
unless you have something to protect.</i>

02:06:05.113 --> 02:06:09.076
<i>Just like those komainu,
the dogs who guard the shrines.</i>

02:06:13.789 --> 02:06:16.832
<i>The reason why the master owned
all this land and the dojo...</i>

02:06:16.833 --> 02:06:20.212
<i>despite not being a samurai or anything...</i>

02:06:20.504 --> 02:06:24.173
<i>was because he'd rescued
an elderly man from bandits,</i>

02:06:24.174 --> 02:06:27.885
<i>who, greatly moved
by his Soryu Style moves,</i>

02:06:27.886 --> 02:06:33.767
<i>left him his land and dojo,
for which he had no heirs.</i>

02:06:36.186 --> 02:06:39.397
<i>But that didn't sit well
with those who wanted</i>

02:06:39.398 --> 02:06:42.734
<i>to have that land and dojo for themselves.</i>

02:06:43.026 --> 02:06:48.740
<i>The kenjutsu dojo next door
started harassing the Soryu Dojo.</i>

02:06:49.783 --> 02:06:54.913
<i>Because of that, the Soryu Dojo
couldn't get any new students.</i>

02:07:01.920 --> 02:07:04.548
<i>But thanks to my training there...</i>

02:07:04.840 --> 02:07:06.174
<i>and my caring for Koyuki...</i>

02:07:08.009 --> 02:07:11.471
<i>my heart found salvation.</i>

02:07:30.198 --> 02:07:31.824
<i>Three years went by...</i>

02:07:31.825 --> 02:07:34.744
<i>and I turned 18.</i>

02:07:35.328 --> 02:07:37.246
<i>Koyuki was 16.</i>

02:07:37.247 --> 02:07:39.666
<i>She was almost never bedridden anymore...</i>

02:07:39.958 --> 02:07:43.003
<i>and could now live a normal life.</i>

02:07:47.007 --> 02:07:48.090
<i>Hakuji...</i>

02:07:48.091 --> 02:07:49.342
<i>Got a second?</i>

02:07:49.926 --> 02:07:51.261
<i>Sure!</i>

02:07:52.721 --> 02:07:53.929
<i>So...</i>

02:07:53.930 --> 02:07:57.642
<i>will you take over this dojo
for me, Hakuji?</i>

02:07:58.018 --> 02:08:01.521
<i>Koyuki says she likes you, too.</i>

02:08:02.397 --> 02:08:03.648
<i>Huh?</i>

02:08:11.156 --> 02:08:14.992
<i>My future as someone
with the tattoos of a criminal...</i>

02:08:14.993 --> 02:08:18.163
<i>wasn't something that I could picture.</i>

02:08:19.289 --> 02:08:26.171
<i>Much less a future with someone
who feels fond of a person like me.</i>

02:08:27.631 --> 02:08:31.675
<i>Could it be that, just like my dad said...</i>

02:08:31.676 --> 02:08:35.680
<i>I would be able to lead
an honest life now?</i>

02:08:36.348 --> 02:08:40.768
<i>The faint hope
of starting all over in life...</i>

02:08:40.769 --> 02:08:45.190
<i>began to swell uncontrollably.</i>

02:08:50.737 --> 02:08:52.822
<i>At that moment...</i>

02:08:53.281 --> 02:08:58.702
<i>I had no inkling that the two people
I wanted to protect with my life...</i>

02:08:58.703 --> 02:09:01.456
<i>would be poisoned to death.</i>

02:09:06.294 --> 02:09:10.215
<i>I went to Edo to visit my dad's grave.</i>

02:09:10.590 --> 02:09:13.969
<i>I wanted to let him know
that I was getting married.</i>

02:09:23.061 --> 02:09:26.731
<i>Though I returned to the dojo
before the sun went down...</i>

02:09:30.235 --> 02:09:33.071
<i>I felt nauseous even before
I heard about it.</i>

02:09:33.697 --> 02:09:36.407
<i>My diaphragm seized up...</i>

02:09:36.408 --> 02:09:39.828
<i>and I had goosebumps
from an ominous premonition.</i>

02:09:42.247 --> 02:09:44.332
<i>Someone put poison in the well!</i>

02:09:45.208 --> 02:09:48.752
<i>Because they could never beat you
or Mr. Keizo head-on...</i>

02:09:48.753 --> 02:09:50.964
<i>they did this horrible thing!</i>

02:09:51.298 --> 02:09:53.757
<i>Atrocious! It's unthinkable!</i>

02:09:53.758 --> 02:09:56.177
<i>They even killed Koyuki!</i>

02:09:58.930 --> 02:10:04.226
<i>When my loved ones
find themselves in danger...</i>

02:10:04.227 --> 02:10:06.354
<i>I'm never nearby.</i>

02:10:15.488 --> 02:10:18.992
<i>Even though I'd promised her...</i>

02:10:20.660 --> 02:10:23.622
<i>Are you sure you're fine with me?</i>

02:10:25.457 --> 02:10:32.172
<i>Do you remember when we were children,
and we talked about seeing the fireworks?</i>

02:10:32.547 --> 02:10:34.757
<i>Huh? No...</i>

02:10:34.758 --> 02:10:36.635
<i>Uh...</i>

02:10:37.969 --> 02:10:44.726
<i>Thanks to those little chats we had,
Mr. Hakuji, I felt joy many times.</i>

02:10:47.020 --> 02:10:50.314
<i>You said that even if we couldn't see
the fireworks this year...</i>

02:10:50.315 --> 02:10:56.320
<i>we could just go next year
or the year after that.</i>

02:10:56.321 --> 02:10:59.865
<i>I could never imagine a future</i>

02:10:59.866 --> 02:11:04.871
<i>in which I'd still be alive
next year or the year after that.</i>

02:11:06.081 --> 02:11:08.083
<i>Neither could my mother.</i>

02:11:08.416 --> 02:11:12.336
<i>I think that's why she killed herself...</i>

02:11:12.337 --> 02:11:15.756
<i>because she didn't want to see me die.</i>

02:11:15.757 --> 02:11:21.221
<i>I could tell that my father
had given up, too, deep down inside.</i>

02:11:21.888 --> 02:11:24.766
<i>Because I was so weak.</i>

02:11:25.809 --> 02:11:31.106
<i>But you were able
to see my future, Mr. Hakuji.</i>

02:11:31.773 --> 02:11:38.446
<i>You talked about next year and the year
after that as if it were perfectly normal.</i>

02:11:39.155 --> 02:11:41.783
<i>That really made me happy!</i>

02:11:52.836 --> 02:11:56.339
<i>You're the one for me, Mr. Hakuji.</i>

02:11:57.882 --> 02:11:59.509
<i>Will you...</i>

02:11:59.926 --> 02:12:02.387
<i>be my husband?</i>

02:12:10.395 --> 02:12:11.521
<i>Yes.</i>

02:12:12.063 --> 02:12:14.816
<i>I'm going to become stronger
than anyone else...</i>

02:12:15.191 --> 02:12:17.819
<i>and protect you for the rest of my life.</i>

02:12:22.198 --> 02:12:23.867
<i>In the end...</i>

02:12:24.325 --> 02:12:29.581
<i>it was all talk, and I was never able
to see a single thing through to the end.</i>

02:12:41.926 --> 02:12:43.553
<i>What do you want?</i>

02:12:44.888 --> 02:12:46.638
<i>How impolite!</i>

02:12:46.639 --> 02:12:47.931
<i>You bastard...</i>

02:12:47.932 --> 02:12:49.434
<i>from Soryu!</i>

02:13:12.874 --> 02:13:14.333
<i>After the father
and daughter of the Soryu Dojo</i>

02:13:14.334 --> 02:13:16.084
<i>were murdered by poison,</i>

02:13:16.085 --> 02:13:20.965
<i>one of the surviving students
attacked the neighboring kenjutsu dojo...</i>

02:13:21.257 --> 02:13:24.009
<i>killing 67 people!</i>

02:13:24.010 --> 02:13:27.847
<i>He shattered their skulls and crushed
their organs with his bare hands!</i>

02:13:28.431 --> 02:13:32.810
<i>Not only did he smash and mangle
most of the bodies beyond recognition,</i>

02:13:32.811 --> 02:13:35.729
<i>they're all missing a significant
amount of body parts!</i>

02:13:35.730 --> 02:13:38.982
<i>The walls and ceilings are strewn
with jaws, brains and eyeballs...</i>

02:13:38.983 --> 02:13:44.404
<i>as well as limbs and organs,
making for a hellish sight!</i>

02:13:44.405 --> 02:13:47.742
<i>The murderer was no ordinary human!</i>

02:14:10.640 --> 02:14:14.476
<i>So, I hear a huge commotion
about a demon sighting</i>

02:14:14.477 --> 02:14:17.355
<i>where I never sent one.</i>

02:14:17.772 --> 02:14:20.399
<i>And now that I've come
to see for myself...</i>

02:14:20.400 --> 02:14:23.318
<i>I find that it was a mere human.</i>

02:14:23.319 --> 02:14:26.405
<i>What a letdown.</i>

02:14:26.406 --> 02:14:28.199
<i>Move it.</i>

02:14:28.533 --> 02:14:29.617
<i>I'll kill you!</i>

02:14:34.747 --> 02:14:39.794
<i>I'm thinking of creating
around 12 powerful demons.</i>

02:14:40.378 --> 02:14:45.633
<i>I wonder if you can withstand
the amount of blood I'm going to give you.</i>

02:14:47.010 --> 02:14:48.553
<i>Don't...</i>

02:14:50.763 --> 02:14:52.222
<i>Don't...</i>

02:14:52.223 --> 02:14:54.725
<i>care anymore...</i>

02:14:54.726 --> 02:14:58.187
<i>about anything...</i>

02:15:12.827 --> 02:15:14.954
<i>After turning into a demon,
I lost my memories...</i>

02:15:16.080 --> 02:15:19.334
<i>and once again, I began to seek power!</i>

02:15:34.557 --> 02:15:35.933
<i>More!</i>

02:15:35.934 --> 02:15:37.977
<i>Show me more of what you've got!</i>

02:15:42.106 --> 02:15:45.108
<i>Even though I no longer...</i>

02:15:45.109 --> 02:15:48.655
<i>had a single thing left
that I wanted to protect.</i>

02:15:50.990 --> 02:15:53.785
<i>Even though it wasn't
as if I wanted to live in a world...</i>

02:15:54.285 --> 02:15:57.789
<i>without my family.</i>

02:16:00.625 --> 02:16:05.546
<i>For over a century, I committed
senseless massacres over and over.</i>

02:16:06.798 --> 02:16:11.552
<i>What an absolutely pathetic, absurd...</i>

02:16:12.804 --> 02:16:15.431
<i>and worthless past.</i>

02:16:20.645 --> 02:16:26.192
<i>Even if I die, I can't go
where the other three are.</i>

02:16:27.610 --> 02:16:30.488
<i>Damn you for making me remember...</i>

02:16:30.863 --> 02:16:32.532
<i>that past of mine!</i>

02:16:34.367 --> 02:16:36.535
<i>Damn humans!</i>

02:16:36.536 --> 02:16:39.622
<i>Such delicate, fragile weaklings!</i>

02:16:40.540 --> 02:16:42.582
<i>They die too easily!</i>

02:16:42.583 --> 02:16:44.168
<i>They break!</i>

02:16:44.544 --> 02:16:47.296
<i>They vanish into thin air!</i>

02:16:50.091 --> 02:16:51.883
<i>He's still not dead!</i>

02:16:51.884 --> 02:16:54.387
<i>Unbelievable!</i>

02:16:55.013 --> 02:16:57.557
<i>I have to kill him right now!</i>

02:16:58.725 --> 02:17:02.854
<i>If we let him regenerate now,
we're done for!</i>

02:17:08.901 --> 02:17:11.529
I blacked out!
In the middle of the battle!

02:17:13.573 --> 02:17:14.865
His head!

02:17:14.866 --> 02:17:17.201
His head's starting to regenerate!

02:17:18.870 --> 02:17:21.205
But I chopped it off!

02:17:27.128 --> 02:17:29.380
<i>Destructive Death, Annihilation Type!</i>

02:17:30.256 --> 02:17:32.258
Stop it!

02:17:32.592 --> 02:17:35.219
<i>That kid! He can still move?</i>

02:17:35.636 --> 02:17:37.554
<i>I'll behead you as many times as it takes!</i>

02:17:37.555 --> 02:17:39.973
<i>We're going to win!
Mr. Giyu and I together!</i>

02:17:39.974 --> 02:17:41.809
<i>We're beating Akaza!</i>

02:17:44.854 --> 02:17:46.355
<i>My sword!</i>

02:17:47.982 --> 02:17:49.901
<i>It slipped out of his hands!</i>

02:17:51.152 --> 02:17:52.737
<i>My grip!</i>

02:18:01.704 --> 02:18:03.498
<i>Time to be reborn...</i>

02:18:04.582 --> 02:18:06.042
<i>young man.</i>

02:18:08.669 --> 02:18:11.297
<i>I despise weaklings!</i>

02:18:13.132 --> 02:18:14.925
<i>Weaklings...</i>

02:18:14.926 --> 02:18:17.719
<i>They pour poison into a well...</i>

02:18:17.720 --> 02:18:20.181
<i>instead of fighting fair and square!</i>

02:18:20.848 --> 02:18:22.892
<i>They're atrocious!</i>

02:18:23.601 --> 02:18:27.646
<i>The weak have no patience!</i>

02:18:27.647 --> 02:18:30.650
<i>They get desperate too soon!</i>

02:18:32.110 --> 02:18:35.655
<i>I killed people with my fists
meant for protection!</i>

02:18:36.531 --> 02:18:40.660
<i>I sullied my master's
beloved Soryu with blood...</i>

02:18:41.160 --> 02:18:43.955
<i>and I couldn't follow
my dad's last wishes!</i>

02:18:46.916 --> 02:18:48.667
<i>That's right.</i>

02:18:48.668 --> 02:18:51.462
<i>The one I wanted to kill...</i>

02:18:56.759 --> 02:18:59.929
<i>Not good! Not good! Not good!
My sword flew off somewhere!</i>

02:19:01.681 --> 02:19:03.933
<i>I can't stop him just by punching him!</i>

02:19:14.485 --> 02:19:16.653
<i>Akaza's about to unleash
the Annihilation Type move</i>

02:19:16.654 --> 02:19:18.573
<i>that he used on Mr. Rengoku!</i>

02:19:21.909 --> 02:19:25.246
<i>I have to take Mr. Giyu with me
out of the attack range!</i>

02:19:29.709 --> 02:19:31.919
Forget about me!

02:19:37.466 --> 02:19:39.218
<i>I've got to kill them.</i>

02:19:41.846 --> 02:19:43.723
<i>The weakling...</i>

02:19:44.599 --> 02:19:46.475
<i>that I hate so much!</i>

02:20:29.268 --> 02:20:31.812
<i>He attacked himself.</i>

02:20:34.398 --> 02:20:37.109
<i>Why would he turn on himself like that?</i>

02:20:37.568 --> 02:20:39.070
<i>Why?</i>

02:20:42.198 --> 02:20:43.532
<i>For a second...</i>

02:20:43.950 --> 02:20:46.661
<i>I could pick up the scent
of gratitude from Akaza.</i>

02:20:47.787 --> 02:20:49.830
<i>Why did he smile?</i>

02:20:54.126 --> 02:20:56.461
<i>That's enough! Stop it!</i>

02:20:56.462 --> 02:20:58.965
<i>Don't regenerate!</i>

02:20:59.632 --> 02:21:01.591
<i>The battle is over!</i>

02:21:01.592 --> 02:21:03.844
<i>I lost!</i>

02:21:05.429 --> 02:21:08.765
<i>I lost decisively in that moment!</i>

02:21:08.766 --> 02:21:13.396
<i>That was a clean, splendid technique!</i>

02:21:14.730 --> 02:21:16.856
<i>You anticipated
the enemy's movements to perfection,</i>

02:21:16.857 --> 02:21:18.984
<i>pivoted at the last second...</i>

02:21:18.985 --> 02:21:22.780
<i>and struck before the enemy had finished
unleashing his move!</i>

02:21:23.489 --> 02:21:25.116
<i>It's over now.</i>

02:21:26.117 --> 02:21:27.784
<i>I want to accept my fate...</i>

02:21:27.785 --> 02:21:30.413
<i>and go to Hell.</i>

02:21:33.499 --> 02:21:35.584
<i>Where does he want to go?</i>

02:21:43.384 --> 02:21:45.011
<i>He stopped in his tracks.</i>

02:21:47.888 --> 02:21:49.223
<i>Dad...</i>

02:21:51.058 --> 02:21:52.935
<i>Are you all right now?</i>

02:21:53.394 --> 02:21:55.938
<i>You're not in any pain?</i>

02:21:56.564 --> 02:21:59.233
<i>I'm fine, Hakuji.</i>

02:22:00.192 --> 02:22:02.069
<i>Thank you, Son.</i>

02:22:08.409 --> 02:22:10.411
<i>Sorry, Dad.</i>

02:22:10.786 --> 02:22:14.247
<i>Sorry I couldn't start over.</i>

02:22:14.248 --> 02:22:16.000
<i>It didn't work out.</i>

02:22:18.961 --> 02:22:20.796
<i>It doesn't matter.</i>

02:22:21.630 --> 02:22:27.219
<i>No matter how you turn out,
you're my son and student.</i>

02:22:27.595 --> 02:22:29.930
<i>We won't desert you even in death!</i>

02:22:31.057 --> 02:22:34.810
<i>Though we can't take you
with us to Heaven.</i>

02:22:36.979 --> 02:22:38.773
<i>Master...</i>

02:22:41.192 --> 02:22:44.779
<i>Didn't you want to become stronger?</i>

02:22:45.321 --> 02:22:48.615
<i>Is this it for you...</i>

02:22:48.616 --> 02:22:50.534
<i>Akaza?</i>

02:22:51.911 --> 02:22:53.661
<i>That's right.</i>

02:22:53.662 --> 02:22:55.622
<i>I'm going to get stronger.</i>

02:22:55.623 --> 02:22:57.917
<i>I want to become stronger!</i>

02:22:58.584 --> 02:23:00.794
<i>So, what if I got beheaded?</i>

02:23:00.795 --> 02:23:03.756
<i>Win? Lose? Who cares?</i>

02:23:04.215 --> 02:23:06.550
<i>I'm going to kill 'em all!</i>

02:23:07.468 --> 02:23:10.554
<i>I can still become stronger!</i>

02:23:12.890 --> 02:23:16.560
<i>I have to keep my promise!</i>

02:23:26.821 --> 02:23:28.697
<i>Mr. Hakuji...</i>

02:23:29.365 --> 02:23:30.741
<i>Thank you.</i>

02:23:31.450 --> 02:23:33.536
<i>That's enough.</i>

02:23:37.790 --> 02:23:39.707
<i>That's enough now.</i>

02:23:39.708 --> 02:23:41.292
<i>It's all right.</i>

02:23:41.293 --> 02:23:43.003
<i>Akaza!</i>

02:23:53.305 --> 02:23:55.682
<i>I'm sorry! I'm sorry!</i>

02:23:55.683 --> 02:23:57.726
<i>I'm sorry I couldn't protect you!</i>

02:23:58.060 --> 02:24:01.021
<i>I'm sorry I wasn't there
when it counted the most!</i>

02:24:01.856 --> 02:24:04.649
<i>I couldn't keep a single promise I made!</i>

02:24:04.650 --> 02:24:05.985
<i>Forgive me!</i>

02:24:06.318 --> 02:24:08.988
<i>I'm begging you, please forgive me!</i>

02:24:09.488 --> 02:24:11.574
<i>Forgive me!</i>

02:24:15.453 --> 02:24:17.620
<i>I'm so glad...</i>

02:24:17.621 --> 02:24:20.332
<i>that you remembered us.</i>

02:24:21.333 --> 02:24:26.046
<i>I'm so glad that you're back
to being the Mr. Hakuji that I know!</i>

02:24:34.597 --> 02:24:37.766
<i>Welcome home, Hakuji.</i>

02:24:41.770 --> 02:24:43.522
<i>Hey, Hakuji!</i>

02:24:43.856 --> 02:24:45.733
<i>Welcome home!</i>

02:24:53.866 --> 02:24:55.201
<i>I'm home.</i>

02:24:56.535 --> 02:24:58.370
<i>I'm back now.</i>

02:25:01.790 --> 02:25:03.626
<i>Welcome home...</i>

02:25:04.585 --> 02:25:06.003
<i>my darling!</i>

02:25:10.299 --> 02:25:11.425
<i>Hey...</i>

02:25:35.199 --> 02:25:36.825
<i>He vanished.</i>

02:25:48.379 --> 02:25:51.173
It's... over.

02:25:54.593 --> 02:25:55.844
Gotta hurry.

02:25:56.720 --> 02:25:58.097
We've got to...

02:25:58.472 --> 02:26:00.057
go to Ms. Tamayo...

02:26:01.308 --> 02:26:02.893
next...

02:26:10.359 --> 02:26:11.777
Tanjiro!

02:26:24.707 --> 02:26:26.916
Tanjiro, Giyu...

02:26:26.917 --> 02:26:29.545
have defeated Upper Three!

02:26:29.837 --> 02:26:33.506
They are unable to stay conscious
due to exhaustion!

02:26:33.507 --> 02:26:35.050
They've passed out!

02:26:40.389 --> 02:26:42.724
Tanjiro, Giyu...

02:26:42.725 --> 02:26:45.810
have defeated Upper Three!

02:26:45.811 --> 02:26:47.646
Upper Three!

02:26:54.361 --> 02:26:55.946
Akaza's...

02:26:56.322 --> 02:26:58.866
presence is gone.

02:27:01.285 --> 02:27:03.829
Who knew that he'd lose?

02:27:06.915 --> 02:27:08.500
Akaza!

02:27:09.835 --> 02:27:13.672
Weren't you going to defeat me?

02:27:15.924 --> 02:27:20.220
Who knew that you'd willingly abandon...

02:27:21.889 --> 02:27:25.267
the path you opened to greater heights?

02:27:31.982 --> 02:27:35.361
How absurdly weak!

02:27:42.326 --> 02:27:43.743
Could...

02:27:43.744 --> 02:27:45.578
Lord Akaza...

02:27:45.579 --> 02:27:48.791
possibly be d-dead?

02:27:49.541 --> 02:27:54.380
I felt a weird presence for a moment,
but it was just my imagination, right?

02:27:55.172 --> 02:27:56.714
Like Lord Akaza...

02:27:56.715 --> 02:27:59.677
had turned into some other creature.

02:28:02.471 --> 02:28:05.265
Well, now that he's dead, I have no clue!

02:28:08.435 --> 02:28:10.144
Let's see.

02:28:10.145 --> 02:28:11.730
Where was I?

02:28:12.314 --> 02:28:14.024
Oh, right, I remember!

02:28:14.733 --> 02:28:17.361
I'd asked you your name, right?

02:28:30.249 --> 02:28:32.500
Tanjiro, Giyu...

02:28:32.501 --> 02:28:34.628
have defeated Upper Three!

02:28:35.629 --> 02:28:36.630
Upper Three!

02:28:37.506 --> 02:28:38.798
Mr. Himejima!

02:28:38.799 --> 02:28:39.883
Yes.

02:28:40.259 --> 02:28:42.010
Good job, Tomioka!

02:28:42.803 --> 02:28:44.596
Good job, Kamado!

02:28:49.768 --> 02:28:53.355
That's amazing,
Mr. Tomioka, Tanjiro!

02:28:53.814 --> 02:28:56.525
We're going to follow their lead.

02:28:56.900 --> 02:28:57.901
Right!

02:29:12.708 --> 02:29:14.710
Don't die, Agatsuma!

02:29:20.215 --> 02:29:23.761
If you don't hurry it up, I'll poke you!
Listen up!

02:29:24.303 --> 02:29:27.638
Show me where the strongest demon is!

02:29:27.639 --> 02:29:29.558
Got that?

02:29:29.850 --> 02:29:32.436
Comin' through!

02:29:33.395 --> 02:29:34.896
This way! This way!

02:29:34.897 --> 02:29:38.192
There's a powerful
guy over here!

02:29:44.615 --> 02:29:46.492
Where's Big Brother?

02:29:56.668 --> 02:29:58.544
Bring me
an Upper Rank!

02:29:58.545 --> 02:29:59.712
An Upper Rank!

02:29:59.713 --> 02:30:01.256
Hey!

02:30:01.632 --> 02:30:04.051
Stop running
from me!

02:30:12.267 --> 02:30:13.935
The passageway
leading north...

02:30:13.936 --> 02:30:15.520
on the 88th level...

02:30:15.521 --> 02:30:17.481
no sign of Muzan.

02:30:18.398 --> 02:30:19.398
The 100th...

02:30:19.399 --> 02:30:21.275
and 27th levels in
the southeast...

02:30:21.276 --> 02:30:23.070
no sign of Muzan.

02:30:24.196 --> 02:30:25.488
Where?

02:30:25.489 --> 02:30:27.866
Where is he?
Where could he be?

02:30:28.951 --> 02:30:31.118
No sign of Muzan...

02:30:31.119 --> 02:30:33.622
on any of the levels
from 90 to 100, either.

02:30:35.457 --> 02:30:37.625
Covering the entire
100th and 33rd levels.

02:30:37.626 --> 02:30:40.337
No sign of Muzan.

02:30:41.672 --> 02:30:46.385
Our crows'll find
you without fail!

02:30:47.052 --> 02:30:49.930
We're going
over this castle...

02:30:50.347 --> 02:30:52.306
with a fine-tooth
comb, and...

02:30:52.307 --> 02:30:54.768
we'll track you down
wherever you go!

02:30:58.397 --> 02:30:59.773
FOUR

02:31:09.366 --> 02:31:12.202
Multi-layered structures are
now moving to the northeast.

02:31:12.494 --> 02:31:14.245
New structures
are moving...

02:31:14.246 --> 02:31:16.164
vertically and
horizontally!

02:31:16.665 --> 02:31:18.292
Folding over themselves!

02:31:21.962 --> 02:31:23.672
- And becoming one!
- And becoming one!

02:31:30.387 --> 02:31:32.222
Who would've thought...

02:31:33.599 --> 02:31:34.683
No...

02:31:35.017 --> 02:31:37.978
we don't have the option
to lose.

02:31:38.645 --> 02:31:40.647
Crows, go on!

02:31:41.148 --> 02:31:42.774
To where Muzan is!

02:31:47.738 --> 02:31:50.198
Those eyesore
Demon Slayers!

02:31:50.574 --> 02:31:54.578
You'll never be able
to reach me!

02:31:54.995 --> 02:31:56.621
You may be
feeling smug...

02:31:56.622 --> 02:31:58.707
about beheading
an Upper Rank...

02:31:59.082 --> 02:32:00.958
but unless
you kill me...

02:32:00.959 --> 02:32:03.086
it means nothing!

02:32:06.882 --> 02:32:12.595
You're going to die meaninglessly
without ever seeing my face!

02:32:12.596 --> 02:32:16.516
So fitting for you foolish,
meaningless lot!

02:32:17.309 --> 02:32:18.768
When I'm done here...

02:32:18.769 --> 02:32:22.522
I'm going to make you regret
that you were ever alive!

02:32:23.857 --> 02:32:27.778
You're going to struggle, suffer
and writhe around in pain!

02:32:28.111 --> 02:32:30.237
And for you Demon Slayers...

02:32:30.238 --> 02:32:33.158
this will be your final night...

02:32:33.450 --> 02:32:35.827
the day of your death!

02:32:46.797 --> 02:32:48.674
Don't die!

02:32:51.969 --> 02:32:54.179
Giyu!

02:33:00.852 --> 02:33:05.190
Tanjiro, don't you die on us!
