Jûsan-nin no shikaku

Shinzaemon Shimada:
I shall accomplish your task... with magnificence.

Lord Naritsugu Matsudaira:
Hanbei?

Hanbei Kitou:
Huh?

Lord Naritsugu Matsudaira:
You think the age of war was like this?

Hanbei Kitou:
Perhaps

Lord Naritsugu Matsudaira:
It's magnificent. With death comes gratitude for life. If a man has lived in vain, then how trivial his life is. Oh, Hanbei. Something wonderful has come to my mind.

Hanbei Kitou:
Huh?

Lord Naritsugu Matsudaira:
Once I'm on the Shogun's council, let's bring the age of war.

Lord Naritsugu Matsudaira:
Ruling is convenient, but only for rulers. The people must live to serve.

Hanbei Kitou:
Who are you? You're no samurai.

Koyata:
So what? Do only samurai matter in this world? I thought samurai would be fun but you bore me. You're useless, even more useless in great numbers.

Lord Naritsugu Matsudaira:
[stabs him] This man speaks the truth. His reward is my short sword.

Koyata:
Compared to fighting a wild bear these wounds are nothing.

Lord Naritsugu Matsudaira:
Some call it elegance. Some call it cruel. I like it. [kicks his retainer's severed head]

Lord Naritsugu Matsudaira:
[after being stabbed by Shinzaemon Shimada's sword] It hurts.

Koyata:
Why are you samurai so arrogant?

Shinzaemon Shimada:
No mercy! There's no samurai code or fair play in battle! No sword? Use a stick. No stick? Use a rock. No rock? Use your fists and feet! Lose your life, but make the enemy pay!

Shinzaemon Shimada:
He who values his life dies a dog's death.

Saheita Kuranaga:
I presume you are the Akashi entourage of Lord Naritsugu. By the order of His Shogun's subject Shinzaemon, we commemorate your passage with arrows!
