Posted: 09/24/22 06:33
Kus: We excaliburlings do our work by being used as bloodsucking biological weapons.
Kus: But Maganagi is worse.
Kus: His staple food is swords, meaning...
Kus: He's a cannibal.
Hij: My bad feeling was on the mark.
Hij: That man wasn't Senbe the Manslayer.
Hij: It was his sword!
Gin: Looks like the one sword we really wanted to avoid
Gin: showed up in the hands of the one guy who shouldn't wield it.
Mag: Nothing vanished.
Mag: They're right here in my belly.
Mag: Both your sword
Mag: and this man.

Title: The Strongest Sword, and the Dullest Sword
Shin: I-Is that...
Kon: S-Sogo?
Hij: That's not him anymore.
Kon: T-Toshi!
Hij: Damn, we were too late.
Gin: Hey, Kusanagi, could it be?
Warning,Warning: Watch the Slip Arc in a bright room and at a safe distance from your TV!
Mag: I'm amazed you had the gall to treat me,Cursed Sword Maganagi, as you did.
Mag: Nobody has ever mocked me so much.No vessel has been such a pain to take over.
Mag: You were the first, Master.
Mag: But your superhuman body and mind, rare anywhere in the universe,
Mag: already belong to me, Maganagi.
Mag: The strongest sword and the strongest vessel are now one.
Mag: At last, I have attained strength unparalleled across the universe.
Kus: He got consumed! That bro got consumed by Maganagi!
Hij: Capture him!
Mag: Wow, what do you think you're doing to one of your comrades?
Kon: H-Hey, Toshi!
Hij: Just trust me for now. That's not Sogo anymore.
Hij: Your stupid game is over.
Hij: We know what you really are.Throw that sword away.
Mag: What are you saying? I'm in the middle of a real-sword fight here.
Mag: If I threw my sword away, I'd get sliced in half.
Hij: And if you won't do it,I'll just cut you down myself.
Mag: Can you do it?
Mag: Can you guys cut me down?
Mag: Because I can cut anything.
Kon: O-Our swords!
Mag: I'm sick of eating dull swords.
Kon: Sogo!
Gin: Hey, you're going after the wrong guy.
Gin: I'm your opponent.
Hij: Hey! You're the one who went after the wrong guy!
Hij: Why'd you throw poop at my face?
Gin: I didn't. It got sucked in to your face likeit was going home to where it belonged.
Hij: Whose face are you calling a toilet?!
Hij: I'm gonna k*ll him for sure.
Hij: Wait, Toshi.
Tet: Gin-san...
Gin: Stay away.
Gin: This is a real-sword fight.Keep your noses out of it.
Tet: Gin-san, this is no time for that.
Shin: She's right. Even if you want to fight, your sword's gone.
Gin: But I have a sword right here.
Gin: The best sword and wielder in the universe?
Gin: What's so scary about that? All they can do is cut.
Gin: We're the dullest sword and the man with the most constipated ass in the universe.
Gin: Not even you can cut us down.
Shin: All we've got is negatives!
Kus: G-Gintoki-han!
Gin: Maganagi...
Gin: No matter how much you corner them,
Gin: you can't sever the bond between Kusanagi and Scabberina, between husband and wife.
Sca: So-kun!
Sca: What's wrong, So-kun?!
Shin: It's already severed, though! She's not worried about us at all!
Gin: Even if you lose your memories, the vow between husband and wife...
Gin: The depraved memories of the ***** they exchanged thousands of times
Gin: will never vanish from their bodies!
Shin: In the end, they're only linked by dirty things!
Mag: Fool. If you fight at such close range,
Mag: you'll be forced to step deep into your enemy's reach.
Mag: And once I'm awakened, any sword within my reach is rendered dull and useless!
Kus: No! Don't touch him!
Kus: If you touch him right now,I'll be cannibalized!
Kus: Gintoki-han!
Gin: Don't touch the sword? Are you stupid?
Gin: That's obvious in a real-sword fight.
Kon: No way. He's seeing through all of Sogo's moves.
Gin: You probably don't get it since you change bodies all the time.
Gin: But for us, it's all over if we get cut by a sword once.
Gin: We won't get anything done if we hesitate, though.
Gin: When it comes to real-sword fights,
Gin: only those crazy enough to walk into mortal danger bare-handed are cut out for it.
Gin: Right, Okita-kun?
Gin: Actually, you're not him.
Gin: His moves aren't this easy to read.
Gin: What did you even take over his body for?
Mag: You little!
Gin: I don't know or care how many blades you've eaten in your life.
Gin: But I know that I've beaten many more than that!
Kus: C-Crap... Gintoki-han, I can't go on.
Kus: Th-The Viagra's effects r-ran out.
Gin: Huh? Wait a second!
Gin: You can't pull that now! And I don't remember giving you any Viagra!
Kus: Shaddup! I told ya my speed's all I got!
Kus: This is all yer fault for draggin' out the foreplay!
Gin: My foreplay doesn't take too long,you broken bastard!
Gin: Get it up already! This is way worse than just being dull!
Gin: You're basically a soggy Curl snack now!
Kag: Don't worry, Gin-chan! The cheese flavor is good even when soggy!
Gin: You keep your mouth shut!
Mag: You let the chance of a lifetime slip.
Mag: Thanks for your helpful advice!
Gin: His moves are getting sharper!
Mag: Did you think I can only control the body, the vessel?
Mag: My belly is filled with the experience and tactics of everyone I've eaten.
Mag: By the time I get used to this body,
Mag: I'll bring out more power than it originally had.
Mag: You know why?
Mag: Because I've eaten and beaten more blades than you could ever hope to!
Gin: Guess he's not called a cursed sword for nothing.
Shin: Th-This is bad.
Shin: He has to avoid contact with the blade. And Kusanagi-san's all limp, to boot!
Gin: I've gotta do something, or I'll lose here.
Shin: Gin-san!
Sca: That's enough! Stop it, you two!
Kus: S-Scabberina.
Mag: Oh?
Sca: Stop fighting over me.
Sca: I can't bear to watch So-kun getting hurt anymore!
Kus: Wh-What're ya sayin', Scabberina?
Kus: Th-That ain't your sword or So-kun.
Kus: That's Cursed Sword Maganagi, the one who put us through hell!
Sca: Shut it, geezer! I don't give a flying rat's ass about you!
Sca: All I care about is So-kun's safety.
Kus: S-Scabberina...
Kus: Did ya forget about not just me, but Maganagi, too?
Sca: I beg you, So-kun. Please stop...
Kus: Scabberina!
Kus: Maganagi, you bastard!
Mag: Kusanagi, it seems your blade isn't the only thing that's gone dull.
Mag: That girl hasn't forgotten a thing.
Mag: She hasn't forgotten anything about you or me.
Mag: She just never knew.
Kus: She never knew? What do ya mean?
Mag: Haven't you figured it out yet?
Mag: That scabbard isn't yours or mine.
Mag: It's your daughter, Scarlett.
Kus: Say what?
Tet: What does he mean, daughter? How do they give birth?
Mag: I don't blame you for mistaking her.
Mag: Scarlett does look exactly like a younger version of her.
Mag: Scabberina was already pregnant with your daughter when you were separated.
Mag: And she raised her all by herself,
Mag: believing that you three would live as a family again one day.
Mag: But she was a single mother.
Mag: It wasn't easy for a scabbard without a sword to protect her child.
Mag: So she chose to survive by housing all kinds of other swords,
Mag: even if it meant betraying her husband.
Mag: But by then, she was already drained and exhausted.
Kus: Wh-Why? Why do ya know all this?!
Mag: Isn't that obvious? It's because I saved her from the hell she was in.
Mag: In the place of a dullard who never came to help her,
Mag: I freed Scabberina from her suffering.
Kus: D-Don't tell me, ya...
Mag: The reason I'm here right now is to keep my promise to her.
Sca: I don't care what happens to me.
Sca: But please help those two meet.
Sca: Even just one look will do. Let him see his daughter alive and well.
Sen: One look? Do I seem that heartless to you?
Mag: I'll bring your entire family together.
Mag: All three of you can meet in my belly.
Kus: Maganagi, you...
Gin: K-Kusanagi!
Gin: Don't tell me, back then?
Gin: Didn't I tell you? From the moment you tricked me, your fates were sealed.
Kus: W-Wait, Maganagi!
Mag: Fret not. I'll send your daughter after you at once.
Mag: Resent your own dull blade if you must.
Mag: Curse your foolishness for daring to defy me, Maganagi.
Kus: Don't!
Kus: Stop it, Maganagi!
Kus: Stop it, Maganagi!
Kus: Leave her alone!
Kus: Leave our... Leave our daughter alone!
Shin: Kusanagi-san!
Mag: This is the end...
Mag: I can't move?
Oki: Hold up. You're jumping the g*n.
Oki: It's too early to go back into the scabbard.
Mag: Y-You...
Kon: S-Sogo?
Mag: How are you still here? I consumed your mind!
Mag: Th-The scabbard's... This can't be.
Mag: I, Maganagi, cannot control this man?
Oki: The duel isn't over yet.
Oki: They're not done yet.
Mag: What are you...
Mag: What do you plan to do withjust that rotting, dull blade?
Mag: Kusanagi is already dead. Everything is all over.
Mag: The scabbard he was looking for is long gone, too.
Mag: You people lost to me, Maganagi.
Gin: Oh, but there's a scabbard right here.
Gin: Can't you see it?
Gin: Can't you see the scabbard that continued to protect her sword even when separated?
Gin: Can't you see this great scabbard thatprotected her husband and daughter to the end?
Gin: No matter how many times his blade crumbles away,
Gin: his soul doesn't have a single scratch on it.
Gin: With a true masterpiece,even if its blade chips away,
Gin: it can be reforged over and over as long as its core doesn't break.
Gin: It can be reborn over and over as long as it's doused in flames.
Gin: The flame hasn't gone out, Kusanagi.
Gin: My flame of life is still burning bright!
Kag: Gin-chan!
Mag: I-Impossible! He stuck the sword into his own butt?
Mag: C-Could that man be...
Gin: I'll let you suck me dry one last time, dumbass.
Gin: Drink as much of my boiling blood as you want!
Mag: No! He's feeding his own blood to Kusanagi?!
Mag: Is he trying to revive the sword?
Mag: Doesn't that man care about his own life?
Oki: He's such a messed-up samurai.
Oki: Forget protecting himself with a sword.
Oki: He himself became a scabbard that protects his sword.
Oki: Interesting.
Oki: Boss really
Oki: is interesting.
Kon: S-Sogo!
Mag: Wh-What are you doing?!
Oki: A duel has to be fair, or it'll be boring.
Oki: You can dig in if you're hungry, too.
Oki: If you can consume me, that is.
Mag: Fine! I'll devour every last bit of you!
All: Gin-san!
Bo: Sogo!
Shin: Gin-san... Okita-san...
Kus: Maganagi, looks like we both found ourselves some fine scabbards.
Mag: No doubt.
Mag: Looks like I was the dull one all along...
Gin: You...
Oki: Boss, let's fight with no distractions next time.
Shin: Gin-san! Kusanagi-san!
Kag: You did it! You really did it!
Shin: You won! Kusanagi-san won!
Kus: Yeah. It's all thanks to ya guys.
Kus: Thank ya so much for makin' mea masterpiece right at the very end.
Shin: K-Kusanagi-san?
Shin: How? Why?
Kus: It's fine. I've been runnin' on fumes for a long time.
Kus: I was always prepared for this.
Kus: Scabberina laid down her life ta protect our daughter.
Kus: If I didn't do the same,how could I face her in heaven?
Shin: Why are you being so negative?
Shin: You finally met your daughter!
Shin: Are you gonna leave her behind without introducing yourself?!
Kus: She grew up inta a fine woman.She really is just like Scabberina.
Kus: I got ta see that beautiful scabbard with my own eyes one more time.
Kus: I'm satisfied with that.
Kus: She shouldn't have ta live with the death of a dad who she'd never seen before.
Kus: She shouldn't need ta bear that cross.
Kus: As long as she lives strong with a smile on her face,
Kus: that's enough for Scabberina and me.
Kus: So please...
Kus: I beg ya...
Kus: Could ya put me ta rest in that lump of ironsand?
Kus: In that excaliburling grave,where I'm sure Scabberina's resting, too.
Kag: Kusanagi...
Kag: Gin-chan.
Gin: Even if you don't exchange any words,
Gin: even when you're far apart,
Gin: there are some things you just can't sever.
Gin: Not by such a dull sword, anyway.
Gin: You guys will always be connected.And we'll always be connected to you.
Kus: Gintoki-han, thank you.
Kus: I'm truly glad I got ta meet scabbards like you in the end.

Sac: Gee, So-kun, are you really gonna buy a new sword for me?
Oki: Maybe 'cause I kept wielding strange swords,
Oki: I don't feel like using a normal one anymore.
Oki: You too, right? An ordinary Kikuichimonji can't satisfy you anymore, right?
Oki: You'd prefer one with pearls or one that vibrates, right?
Sac: Eek, So-kun, you perv.
Tet: I'm sorry, but we don't sell such filthy swords.
Oki: That so?
Oki: And here I thought you picked up some pearls.
Oki: Ever since that day, the four of you
Oki: were stuck to the ground there,desperately picking up something.
Tet: It was just gravel.
Tet: But mixed in with that gravel is iron that's far more valuable than pearls.
Tet: I'm going to use it all to forge a sword.
Oki: That sounds like a pain.
Oki: Well, let me know when you're done.
Tet: Are you sure?
Tet: I bet it's going to be the dullest sword in the universe.
Oki: Yeah. It doesn't have to cut anything.
Oki: Because I'm sure the sword and scabbard are never gonna leave each other again.

Kus: Yeah. It's all thanks to ya guys.
Kus: Thank ya so much for makin' mea masterpiece right at the very end.
Shin: K-Kusanagi-san?
Shin: How? Why?
Kus: It's fine. I've been runnin' on fumes for a long time.
Kus: I was always prepared for this.
Kus: Scabberina laid down her life ta protect our daughter.
Kus: If I didn't do the same,how could I face her in heaven?
Shin: Why are you being so negative?
Shin: You finally met your daughter!
Shin: Are you gonna leave her behind without introducing yourself?!
Kus: She grew up inta a fine woman.She really is just like Scabberina.
Kus: I got ta see that beautiful scabbard with my own eyes one more time.
Kus: I'm satisfied with that.
Kus: She shouldn't have ta live with the death of a dad who she'd never seen before.
Kus: She shouldn't need ta bear that cross.
Kus: As long as she lives strong with a smile on her face,
Kus: that's enough for Scabberina and me.
Kus: So please...
Kus: I beg ya...
Kus: Could ya put me ta rest in that lump of ironsand?
Kus: In that excaliburling grave,where I'm sure Scabberina's resting, too.
Kag: Kusanagi...
Kag: Gin-chan.
Gin: Even if you don't exchange any words,
Gin: even when you're far apart,
Gin: there are some things you just can't sever.
Gin: Not by such a dull sword, anyway.
Gin: You guys will always be connected.And we'll always be connected to you.
Kus: Gintoki-han, thank you.
Kus: I'm truly glad I got ta meet scabbards like you in the end.

Sac: Gee, So-kun, are you really gonna buy a new sword for me?
Oki: Maybe 'cause I kept wielding strange swords,
Oki: I don't feel like using a normal one anymore.
Oki: You too, right? An ordinary Kikuichimonji can't satisfy you anymore, right?
Oki: You'd prefer one with pearls or one that vibrates, right?
Sac: Eek, So-kun, you perv.
Tet: I'm sorry, but we don't sell such filthy swords.
Oki: That so?
Oki: And here I thought you picked up some pearls.
Oki: Ever since that day, the four of you
Oki: were stuck to the ground there,desperately picking up something.
Tet: It was just gravel.
Tet: But mixed in with that gravel is iron that's far more valuable than pearls.
Tet: I'm going to use it all to forge a sword.
Oki: That sounds like a pain.
Oki: Well, let me know when you're done.
Tet: Are you sure?
Tet: I bet it's going to be the dullest sword in the universe.
Oki: Yeah. It doesn't have to cut anything.
Oki: Because I'm sure the sword and scabbard are never gonna leave each other again.
