00:00It's been two weeks since I arrived in the Yagumo region.
00:08No clues about my parents so far, but it turns out what my mother said was true.
00:12The people here really do have black hair.
00:17Who's that guy?
00:22Excuse me.
00:24Sorry to bother you, but I'm in need of some directions.
00:26I was hoping to meet with the person in charge of this village.
00:30I'm a traveler.
00:32Oh, yes, of course.
00:33We don't get too many travelers here.
00:35My grandma's actually the head of this village.
00:37Oh, really?
00:38Then if it's not too much trouble, could you take me to her?
00:41Uh, yeah, sure.
00:44Come on, Sayo. Let's go. You want to get left behind?
00:47Coming, Marie.
00:49Ma!
00:52We've got company.
00:54Rather oddly dressed company, I might add.
00:57Pardon the intrusion, ma'am.
00:59It's a pleasure to meet you.
01:01My name is Ryo, and I was hoping I could ask you something.
01:04Well, aren't you a polite young man?
01:06Are you from another country?
01:08Yes.
01:09I traveled across many lands to get here.
01:11How tenacious of you.
01:13My name is Yuba.
01:14What is your business with me?
01:15I'm looking for someone who used to live here.
01:18And since I've been told you know most people in this area,
01:20I was hoping you might have some information on them you could share with me.
01:23It seems this conversation will take some time. Let us sit.
01:27Come on in.
01:29My thanks.
01:32I was told my parents used to live in Yagumo over 15 years ago.
01:36It's been a long time, but do you think you might have known them?
01:39Well, why don't you start by telling me their names?
01:41They were called Zen and Ayame.
01:44Zen and Ayame, you said?
01:46Have you heard of them?
01:48Ruri, Sayo, please leave us and return to your work.
01:51Wait, what? Why should we?
01:53Because this young man's family history is none of your business.
01:57Man, just when it was getting good.
01:59Let's get out of here, Sayo.
02:01Uh, okay.
02:02My apologies. Please, continue.
02:07Yes, ma'am.
02:08According to my mother, she and my father were both born here.
02:12My father died before I was old enough to know him.
02:15So it was just my mother and I for a while.
02:18But then she died too when I was five years old.
02:22She and I actually promised to travel here together someday.
02:26When you're older, I'll take you there, and you can see it for yourself.
02:30It's a place called Yagumo.
02:31Really? Do you really promise?
02:34Yes, I promise.
02:36On my way to this place, I thought about how I could honor my parents.
02:41And I realized I'd like to set up graves for them here.
02:45The least I could do is memorialize them in their homeland.
02:49There's no mistaking it.
02:51You truly are Zen and Ayame's son.
02:53And your resemblance to them both is uncanny.
02:56Forgive my prying, but how exactly did you know them?
02:59Zen was my son.
03:01I'm your grandmother, Ryo.
03:04You're my father's.
03:05I'm so happy you've come.
03:07But as for your goal, I'm afraid that you're too late.
03:11We've already memorialized your parents.
03:13These are my mother and father's graves?
03:20That's right.
03:22May I pay my respects to them?
03:25Please.
03:28Mother.
03:30Father.
03:31I finally made it to Yagumo.
03:32Many years ago, Zen and Ayame had no choice but to leave this country in secret.
03:39Those of us who knew why they left also knew they could never come home.
03:43So we chose to honor them with these monuments.
03:46But why did they leave?
03:48I'm sorry, but at this time it is not my place to give you that information.
03:53Perhaps one day I can tell you their story.
03:56But for now, will you live here with us until I can?
04:00Uh, would that be possible?
04:02Yes.
04:03You are my grandson, after all.
04:06I'd like to be able to watch over you.
04:09Of course.
04:11My relatives have all passed on.
04:14You and Ruri are the only family I have left.
04:17She is Zen's older brother's daughter, your cousin, and she's 15 years old.
04:22She's only a year older than I am, then.
04:25I'm surprised to hear you're so young.
04:27You're quite mature for your age.
04:29Well, I don't know about mature.
04:30I suppose we should head back.
04:35Chief Yuba, are you really sure that I can stay here?
04:39Yes, but only if you stop addressing me so formally.
04:43Oh, all right then.
04:45Yuba.
04:46Better.
04:47Don't stay out too late now.
04:49And don't you worry.
04:50Your parents will be our little secret for now.
05:00Pardon the intrusion?
05:03Hey, where'd you get off to?
05:05It's been hours.
05:06We're starving.
05:07Welcome home, Ryo.
05:09Come on, let's go eat.
05:11Yeah.
05:11Good morning, Yuba.
05:19Well, look at you.
05:20An early riser, I see.
05:22I want to start helping out around town today.
05:25But before that, I figured I'd make you both breakfast.
05:27Not often you see such a motivated young man.
05:31Morning, Grandma.
05:33Hey, Roo.
05:33I hope you slept well.
05:36Good morn-
05:37Oh, dear.
05:39Looks like someone forgot we have a house guest.
05:46I'm never coming out of my room.
05:52My, you're quite the chef.
05:55In that case, I'll ask you to make the miso soup.
05:58Looks like we don't have enough water.
06:00Yeah, especially not with Sayo and Shin coming today.
06:03You can just use the water from over there, Ryo.
06:06We refill it every day using spirit arts, so there's plenty.
06:09So they both know how to use spirit arts.
06:12Well, hot water would be better, wouldn't it?
06:15I'll make us some.
06:17Huh?
06:20Oh, my.
06:22Amazing.
06:23Even Grandma can't make hot water.
06:25How'd you learn to do that?
06:27It's pretty easy once you get the hang of it.
06:30I can show you how, if you want.
06:31Mm-hmm.
06:34Morning, everyone.
06:35How you doing?
06:36Starving, but fine.
06:38Hello.
06:38Good morning.
06:39Oh, hello again.
06:41Who are you?
06:42Oh, I suppose I should introduce you to...
06:45This is Sayo's older brother, Shin.
06:47Shin, Ryo.
06:48He's the son of an old friend of mine.
06:50Good to have you here, Shin.
06:51It's nice to meet you.
06:52Yeah.
06:53Same, I guess.
06:56So good!
06:57Uh, there's meat in it, too?
07:00The miso soup is incredible.
07:03Ryo actually made all of this.
07:05What?
07:05It's amazing!
07:06Well, it was no trouble at all to make, so eat up.
07:09There's plenty more where that came from.
07:10I want seconds!
07:11Shin, stop!
07:12We're guests here.
07:13Could you show a little restraint, please?
07:16Ah, I've never been so full this early before.
07:20Shin, please take Ryo to Dola's place.
07:23Huh?
07:24How come?
07:25I was thinking Ryo might like to become a hunter.
07:28Really?
07:28Doesn't seem like the type.
07:30Well, he says he has experience.
07:33And didn't Dola say he could use some extra hands?
07:35I guess, but it's pretty tough work.
07:38You sure he's up for it?
07:39He doesn't exactly have the build of a hunter.
07:42He'll be fine.
07:44He's competent enough to have traveled to many countries on his own.
07:46And he can use spirit arts.
07:48Oh, come on.
07:49Even I know how to use spirit arts.
07:51Perhaps.
07:52But Ryo's are clearly much stronger than yours.
07:54Please.
07:56Hey, Ryo!
07:57Oh?
07:57I've decided to take you hunting.
07:59So make sure not to get in my way.
08:01Shin, that's rude!
08:02I'm so sorry, Sir Ryo.
08:03My brother really needs to work in his manners.
08:06No.
08:07It's fine.
08:08Do you mind if I go and leave this to you, Miss Rory?
08:10Oh, sure.
08:11Okay.
08:14So?
08:15He's Sir Ryo now?
08:16What?
08:17Well, I just thought he kind of seemed like a noble, you know?
08:20Someone dashing and just out of reach.
08:23I see.
08:33Ah, Leno Bird.
08:35Not an easy mark.
08:35Nice work, Ryo.
08:37You're an excellent shot.
08:39Well, you're just going to stand there and let him show you up, Shin?
08:41Huh?
08:43Man, shut up!
08:46Damn it!
08:55All right, let's head back for now.
08:56Great work today, boys.
08:58We are going to bring home a feast to the village tonight.
09:01You say that like I hit a single one of them.
09:04We all know you and Ryo got them all.
09:07Oh, knock it off with the sulking.
09:08This was the result of all of us working together as a team.
09:12Yeah, right.
09:14Sorry.
09:15I'll have a little talk with him once we get home.
09:18You still want to come back tomorrow?
09:20Yeah.
09:20You can count on me.
09:24Looks like I got pretty dirty out there.

11:56Another bountiful harvest.
11:58Great. I heard the tax examiner is on his way.
12:00Indeed.
12:02Oh, that's right. Given your skills, I have a favor to ask of you.
12:06What is it?
12:07After we ration our village's fair share, the rice that remains will be sold at the royal capital.
12:13I'd like you to guard our transport team on their way there.
12:16You think I can?
12:17You'll do wonderfully.
12:19Fight!
12:20It's Shin against three huge guys!
12:26Get out of here, Cone!
12:27You can't just walk around our village like you own the place!
12:30And you definitely can't just walk into the bathing hut uninvited, you giant creep!
12:35Uninvited? I'm here to visit your village's head. Doesn't that make me your guest?
12:40Besides, who could resist the charms of two fine young women like Ruri and who's that?
12:46Don't you ever look at my sister that way again!
12:49Oh, so she's your sister, huh? Good thing there's no resemblance.
12:55You?
12:56Shin, don't!
12:57Dirtbag or not, he's still the son of another village's chief. The whole town will be in trouble if you hit him.
13:04Huh.
13:05Anyway, Cone, just tell us what you're doing in our village.
13:08I'm just here to shack up with you and Granny for the night.
13:11What?
13:11You see, my friends here and I were on our way to sell goods in the capital, but our cart broke down and repairs are gonna take a while.
13:20If that's true, we'll lend you one of our guest huts.
13:23Oh, come on! Is that any way to treat the man who might become your husband?
13:27W-what makes you think I would ever marry you?
13:30Well, the head of this village only has you for an heir.
13:33You're gonna need a husband, and lucky for you, I'm willing to volunteer.
13:38Are you insane? We never let Ruri marry a pig like you!
13:42Yeah, that's right!
13:43Huh? She's not even your woman and you think you could keep her from me?
13:46I'd like to see you sissies try.
13:48What did you call us?
13:50You heard me.
13:52Son of a...
13:53Shin!
13:53Is this really all the fight you've got?
14:01Shin, no! Let go of him!
14:04That's enough!
14:05Well, if it isn't Yuba, still alive, huh?
14:09Let that boy go this instant. Then you and I can talk.
14:15Are you okay?
14:16So, talk!
14:17Listen, Gon. I apologize for these boys' inappropriate behavior.
14:26That said, we do not tolerate violence of any sort in our village.
14:31We will allow you to stay the night in a guest hut at the edge of the village.
14:35But you may not leave that hut. Understood?
14:38Yeah, yeah.
14:40Huh?
14:44Who the hell's that?
14:46Looks like a woman. I don't like him.
14:55Boss?
14:55You alright? Better watch your step.
14:58What happened?
14:59Just shut up and keep moving!
15:02Got my damn clothes dirty.
15:06Everyone, return to your homes immediately.
15:07I ordered those men to stay inside, but there's no telling what they'll try.
15:12Hey, Yuba.
15:13Do you mind if Sayo stays with you tonight?
15:16I hate to ask, but we live alone, so...
15:19I think she might feel a little safer sleeping with you and Ruri around.
15:24Of course. We'll watch out for each other, right, Sayo?
15:27Yes.
15:27We should get some sleep.
15:35Right.
15:36Miss Ruri. Miss Sayo.
15:38Oh, Suryo.
15:39Put this in a corner of your room tonight.
15:42It's a protective amulet.
15:43An amulet?
15:44Gorgeous. Thank you so much for this, Suryo.
15:47You really think this'll work, boss?
15:52Of course it will. After all, I busted up that cart pretty bad.
15:56We'll have to spend the whole day tomorrow working on it.
16:02After that, we'll get to the fun part.
16:04Chief Yuba!
16:09Hmm?
16:09It's been a long time.
16:11Too long. Thank you for coming.
16:14Pleased to meet you, sir. My name is Ryo.
16:16Greetings. My name is Hayate Saga.
16:18I'm a traveling tax examiner by trade. I hope you'll look after my attendants and I.
16:48I can't imagine that this is much fun to watch.
16:52You look so graceful. We couldn't help ourselves.
16:56It's just some simple training.
16:57No, no. It's really impressive.
16:59You've been doing it every day since you got here, right?
17:02What made you pick up martial arts?
17:04Good question.
17:06I swear I'll protect you, even after I die!
17:09It's a little embarrassing to say out loud.
17:12Well, now I want to hear it even more.
17:14Don't you, Sayo?
17:15Uh, yes. I'm curious.
17:18No choice then, I guess.
17:20Do you mind if I get dressed first, though?
17:22Huh? Oh, go ahead.
17:25When I was little, there was this girl I liked.
17:28I promised her I'd become strong so that I could protect her.
17:31Wow, so romantic. Where's Lover Girl now?
17:35I haven't seen her in years, but I'm willing to bet she's found someone else by now.
17:40She's probably forgotten all about me these days.
17:42Plus, I don't even know where she lives anymore.
17:50Hey, don't give up. There's always a chance you could meet her again.
17:54Isn't there?
17:55Um, yeah.
17:57I guess so.
17:58But for now, I've decided I'm training for me.
18:01Ah, that bath was phenomenal.
18:04Thank you so much, Ryu.
18:05I'm glad you enjoyed it.
18:07You two should go ahead and take your bath next.
18:10It's getting chilly.
18:11Oh, yeah. Good point.
18:13Let's hop in, Sayo.
18:14Right.
18:15Can't blame me for what happens if you struggle.
18:42What?
18:43One more peep and I'll punch her in the face.
18:48And you two.
18:49Wait, please.
19:03What are you doing?
19:05Shit.
19:06Stop.
19:21Please, stop.
19:24Stop, you said?
19:26Sir Ryo.
19:42Sir Ryo, no.
19:44Please, don't.
19:45Just stop it.
19:46Sir Ryo?
19:48Sir Ryo, stop this at once.
19:51Do you intend to kill this man?
19:52What happened?
20:02Is that Gon?
20:03Yes, ma'am.
20:05It seems he tried to assault Miss Ruri and Miss Sayo.
20:07I'll handle it.
20:09Can you see to the two of them?
20:10Ruri, Sayo, come with me.
20:12Am I correct in assuming what you tried to do to those girls?
20:20Then you've committed a grave offense.
20:24Notify the kingdom of this immediately.
20:26Yes, sir.
20:27This is the second time I've ever wanted to kill someone.
20:37I felt this way from the beginning as Ryo.
20:41And yet...
20:43These days I feel less like Ryo.
20:46And more like Haruto Amakawa.
20:47I turned my back on my quest for revenge.
20:53But in the end...
20:54I'm no different from the man who murdered my mother.
21:06A messenger from the kingdom will arrive soon.
21:08It seems Gon and the others are under arrest.
21:12Everyone.
21:13I caused you all a great deal of trouble yesterday.
21:17I'm deeply sorry.
21:19What do you have to apologize for?
21:21You protected Ruri and Sayo.
21:23Yeah.
21:24I don't want to think what would have happened if you hadn't showed up to help us, Ryo.
21:28And yes, I know you got angry, but it was only because you wanted to keep us safe.
21:33Besides, if you hadn't hit him, I would have gladly done it myself.
21:38Thanks, everyone.
21:39I appreciate it.
21:41But please, at least give me a chance to try and make it up to you.
21:45Wow.
21:45You are hopeless.
21:46Not unlike someone else I used to know.
21:50Wait, who?
21:51Time for breakfast, everyone.
21:53Come on, Surya.
21:54You must be starving.
21:55I sure am.
