Lone Wolf and the Cub
Father !
Wait !
it would be bad if someone sees us !
let ' s flee
The Lowly Maid
Father , please hang in there .
I will get the doctor in a Hurry
You wont find a doctor unless you go all the way to Kohriyama
There ' s a blizzard , and it 's also dark out .
You will get lost.
He wont survive unless you take out the bullet .
Daigoro
Get the fire .
So you ' re telling me that you killed both
Jinzaemon Taura and his Daughter ?
Yes, it 's true .
We killed them at Danjo-gawara .
Well done.
You can go and have a drink with the others .
Yes , sir.
Such a pity .
Old man Taura .
He would ' ve been better off
Living carefree in a row house at some alley in Edo
after retiring from his potision as a chief retainer in Edo .
But instead , he died on a snow filed .
My Lord , there is no one that stands in your way now .
Now , you can have what you ' ve been longing for.
The chief retainer position in Edo is right before your eyes .
What 's wrong ?
Don ' t worry about me .
Go to sleep .
Father !
Lord Ogami ?
He removed the bullet from your body .
Thank you .
Mine , did he accept our request ?
Please don' t .
We asked Lord Ogami twice before coming here .
He has rejected our request .
Lord Ogami .
As you can see , they are trying to kill us .
We dont ' t have the kind of money you ask for as of this moment ,
but we will pay you as soon as we get to Kohriyama .
Please kill Tanomo Takizawa , the superintendent officer of Kohriyama clan .
if you want us to accept your request ,
then you must pay the 500 ryo up front .
Or else , i cannot accept your request .
What ' s wrong ?
You must have a fever :
Mine . Get some medicine .
No , there 's no need for that .
Father .
I will go find a doctor in the morning . try to hang on until then .
Don ' t worry about me .
You had a narrow escape from death :
Father , when you wound heals ,
Let ' s just give up on Killing Tanomo Takizawa
and head back to Edo .
We 'll do our best to make your remaining years peaceful .
It won ' t happen .
I was falsely charged with embezzling the clan 's pubblic funds .
I can ' t die like this .
I ' ll lose my honor as a samurai if i don ' t kill Takizawa .
I know exactly how you feel .
Takizawa has his men waiting for you at Kohriyama .
How will you get there ?
Don ' t .
I , Jinza Taura , will fight as long as I ' m able...
Lord Taura .
You need to rest .
Your health will worsen .
Yukian Obayashi
Ok , here you go .
This will make the fever go away .
Father !
Lord ....
Ogami ....
Father !
Jizo Jizo statue , I ' m lost . Please show mw the way .
Mister ! Can you tell me the road leading to the temple ?
Where is it ?
Shut up !
You see , I don ' t like doing jobs that don ' t make money
or precocious kids like you .
You got that ?
I ' m sorry about that .
Did it hurt ?
Wait !
You have to control yourself .
if you make him angry , you never know waht he might do .
Omatsu !
Quit wasting your time ! Hurry up !
yes .
Take care , little boy .
It ' s in the air !
Yes , it is .
That ' s it , keep going .
OK , pull a little more .
You ' re getting good , my Lord .
Sister !
Ah , we meet again .
This is not yours ?
No ?
Then you can have it . You must be happy .
Omatsu !
Coming !
Ah , I found it ! There it is !
Hey ! Where are you going with my kite ?
Say something !
Give it back , you thief !
say something , thief !
Why are you looking at me like that ? you don ' t like being called a thief ?
Well ?
Why you little ....
Can ' t you talk ?
My lord !
It hurts !
What did you do to our lord ?
Hang on , my lord !
You little brat !
Ouch ! ouch !
He fled !
Shindo , take the lord with you !
All right !
I don ' t know which of you is going to be chosen ,
but one of you will get to work in this nice residence .
Your parents never paid their debts back to me .
On top of that , i have to find jobs for you people .
if you disrespect me in any way , you people are going to regret it .
what ' s with that look ?
Dont ' t you forget what I did for you !
What a greedy bastard !
My late mother borrowed only two ryo from him , and he said
she had to pay back 15 ryo after interest .
Hurry up !
You little brat !
License for Apprenticeship
I brought you the finest
and tje three most healthiest women around .
Choose whichever you like :
You may begin .
One who can do the best
will be empliyed as the oscue for the Takizawa clan .
An "oscue" is a maid of the lowest position :
In other words , osue is a lovely maid .
Applicants are given a test called "otemise" to display
theri skills before they are officialy hired .
they must cut tofu into many pieces
and place them into a blow of water .
One that can cut the pieces evenly with
the same size , will be hired as the maid .
I decided to choose this girl .
From now on , you must work very hard as au osue .
Yes , yes .
Say something !
Yes !
You must be happy , Omatsu .
you are going to serve themas an apprentice for five years ,
and earn a large sum of fifteen ryo .
You must work very hard and have lady Omura treat you well .
Got it ?

Plese hold on !
What ' s going on ?
Shinnosuke !
My lord my lord !
Shinnosuke
What happened ? shinnosuke !
Hurry and get the doctor !
This little brat stole our lord ' s kite and
Unbelievable kid .
I ' ve never seen a kid like this before .
He doesn ' t ene cry , and doesn ' t seem to be afraid at all .
Either he ' s got some guts , or he 's just crazy .
He ' s so calm that he scares me .
Ah doctor Ryoan .
This way .
Please .
Thank you for coming .
hurt ! hurt !
hurt ! hurt ! Shinnosuke !
Son a samurai shouldn ' t cry like a girl !
We should ' ve been more careful , even though we where with him .
I ' m truly sorry about this .
It ' s just a slight wound . It ' ll heal soon .
Nothing to fear .
hurt !....
As is often the case with strangers ,
he must have a rebellious spirit . I ' ll teach you a good lesson !
My lady . What should we do with him ?
if we could find out who his parents were , we would make them pay for this !
This child is filled with hate !
You hurt a cute , little child . You little bastard !
Why don ' t cry a little ?
If you keep quiet ,
I 'll stab this into you !
it ' sgoing to hurt !
You ' ll be gushing with brigt red blood !
Why you little ! I' m not joking !
Wait !
welcome back !
I heard about the details .
Master , what ' s wrong ?
his eyes ....
his eyes have seen plenty of bloodshed .
Between life and the death......
Between life and death ?
Between life and death .
In other words , a good swordsman can keep themselves emotionless .
I can see that behind those innocent eyes oh his .
It ' s frightening.
Frightening ?
This kid ....
He ' s not even scared of swords .
But his sharp eyes are not of a lunatic .
When he took our young lord ' s sword , he displayed a strange stance .
When I saw that stance , I felt scared with goose bumps .
and can you show me this stance ? Yes .
Suiou Style , Zanbatou !
What did you say ?
Suiou Style , Zanbatou ....
That technique is used by the former executioner Itto ogami .
Now know as the " Lone Wolf and the Cub "
He ' s now an assassin who goes around from one place to another .
Then this kid must be .......
Lock him up in the archives room! Yes Sir !
You must not give him any food or water .
I understand .
I must find out for myself .
If this kid is who i think he is , then he 'll think about his father .
And if he 's about to die . then he 'll beg for his father to help .
But how do you know that this kid will call out to his father ?
He may not be a human child .
if he ' s the child oh a wolf .
he will be able to howl and call for his father .
Perhaps , his father might come on his own .
I' m sure his father is nearby .
if that is true , then why ?
Who is he going ti kill in this Kohriyama ?
Aikawa , Shindo !
You two killed both the father and daughter of Taura , correct ?
yes .
I shot them , and they fell down in the snow .
Did you finish them off ?
Yes .... I mean no .
We tried to approach them , but a strange ronin shiwed up , so ....
You retreated without making sure they where dead ? You idiot !
I ' m sorry .
Strange ronin ....
Hey , is everyone here ?
Yes , most of them are .
Lord Hatake .
So many important people here today .
This " Lone Wolf and the Cub " must be a formidable opponent .
Daddy !
What ? he said " Daddy " ?
Itto Ogami was au executioner for the shogunate .
Do you think that a son of a respected samurai ....
Would call his father " daddy " ?
Hmmm....
Omatsu .
Yes !
What are you doing ?
Well ....
Well what ?
I heard him crying , so I just come to see if he ' s ok .
What ?
What ? The little brat ...
The little brat was crying ?
Go away , Omatsu !
Go away !
Yes .
Cry , you little brat !
Cry !Cry out loud !
She ' s the daughter of a poor farmer , so she knows
how hard and painful it is to be hungry .
Have I been asleep all this time ?
you slept all night .
Worried about your son ? He ' s not back yet .
afther you collected your father ' s ashes , you could have left ...
Are you feeling all right now ?
I kept having dreams of hell .
But it seems like i ' m feeling better now .
Thanks foe everything .
I ' m going to ask you again .
Just like i told you before ....
I don ' t have the money for your services right now , but ...
Lord Ogami .
You may do whatever you want with me .
But in return , i want you to help me .
I want you to kill Tanomo Takizawa and avenge my father .
Lord Ogami .
If you can do this favor for me ,
then i don' t care what you do to me .
what did you say to your father ?
You told him to forget about killing Tanomo Takizawa and to return to Edo .
Yes , I did .
but things are different noe .
As i placed my father ' s bones in the box , one by one ,
I decided to kill Takizawa from the bottom of my heart .
No matter what the circumstances may be ...
Lord Ogami .
My ...
My body ...
Isn ' t my body enough to pay for your fee ?
It ' s freezing , right ?
You ' re hungry , right ?
Yeah .
I can 't get the rice ball through this thing , so I made you this instead .
Go ahead and eat it .
Where ' s your daddy and mommy ?
If you tell me where they are , I ' ll go tell them that you ' re here .
You must be a loner just like me .
You seemed sad when I met you at the filed .
I ' m just like you .
I ' m lonely too .
I ' ll come again .
You must feel lonely . I ' ll stay with you for a while .
Don ' t worry .
That old hag is sleeping .
I ' m going to get you out oh here in one day .
one day .
I promise .
Kid .
No matter how stubborn you are ,
i will find out who you are .
You must be Itto Ogami ' s son .
three days have passed .
But this kid shows no sign of fatigue .
He show no fear and doesn ' t cry .
he doesn ' t even call for this father .
how can he be like this without food and wather ?
You ' re related to that kid , aren ' t you ?
Right ?
Say it !
Say It!
Say it !
What is your purpose for coming to this residence ?
Hey Mura ! Don ' t take it easy on her !
She ' s got some nerve !
Obstinate !
Say it ! Omatsu !
Say it! Say it!
Say it!
Confess !
Please forgive me !
I felt sorry for the boy ...
So....
So I ....
Mura . She won ' t confess even if keep beating her .
Give her the water torture - See if she confesses then .
Yes , my lady .
Hey .
Omatsu ! Confess !
Why don ' t you confess ?
Confess !
I ' ll keep torturig you till you die !
I ' ll keep torturin you till you die !
Mura ! Torture her some more !
Say It !
Say it!
I heard that the " Lone Wolf and the Cub " uses many crafty skills
in order to accomplish his assassinations.
He used his son and injured Shinnosuke .
He let us capture his son on purpose .
And at the same time he sent that osue here as a mole ,
so that he can get in contact with her .
I see .
it is now clear that he is after my life .
the ones who hired him are none other .
that the father and daugther of Taura .
And what are we going to do ?
There ' s no time to waste .
We cant ' just wait for him to come get me .
We ' re going to hunt him down instead .
I ' m sure he ' s somewhere nearby .
I ' m sure of it !
Sister !
I promised that I would get you out of here .
Forgive me .
Sister !
Sister ! Sister ! Sister !
They ' re related , just as I thought .
But I never knew they were brother and sister
Mura !
Beat this kid some more !
Yes .
Why you !
Wait !
No need to rush .
If you follow that kid , then he ' ll lead us to his father .
Tell the others to get ready ! Go !
Please dont ' t follow me .
I ' m not follow you . But it ' s likely ....
Likely ?
I ' m heading to the same place you are .
Daigoro will be there .
They must have seen us with your father .
Daddy !
That ' s Taura ' s daughter !
" Lone Wolf and the Cub "
You ' re the one who hunts for misfortune !
You fool!
Stop !
if you move , then we will kill your daughter !
Sister !
If you want us to spare her life , then drop your sword !
Drop your sword !
I guess I have no choice .
Even the " Lone Wolf and the Cub " cares about his child ....
The Wolf turns out to be a human after all .
Tanomo Takizawa !
It is time for you to feel the wrath of Jinzaemon Taura !
How Impudent !
Kill him !
Sister ! Sister !
