01x52 - Genkai Chiru! 50 Nen Me no Ketchaku

[bunniefuu]

I never thought that half a century later,

I would once again be
a guest at this tournament.

But then, to be called here by someone
who was my ally 50 years ago...

Why did you call on me?!

To let you know how
cruel the passage of time is.

"Genkai Falls! Settled After 50 Years."

Hey! Urameshi! Urameshi!

What gives?

No sooner did he wake up than he ran
the hell off someplace at top speed...

What's going on, for crying out loud?

Kazuma! What are you doing there?

Yukina-san! Together with your entourage!

Who are you calling an entourage?!
You just try saying that again!

Entourage...

You can't laugh this one off!

Oh, yeah... Never mind that,
have you seen Urameshi?

Is something the matter with Yusuke?

All of a sudden,
he ran off somewhere.

You're sure it wasn't to do
some waking-up exercises?

No, it wasn't like that.

Come to think of it,

Ba-san also disappeared after saying
something with a seemingly deeper meaning.

I'm going to go look for them.

Toguro...

You have already passed on
your Reikohado-ken skills, huh?

Yeah. I have handed them over to Yusuke.

Very well... I have no
further business with you.

No, it would be more honest to say
that I cannot put up with you anymore.

I don't want to look at
your aged self any longer!

You really haven't changed.
Fighting is the only thing inside your head.

It's been that way,
ever since that time...

You and I both are at
the height of our strength.

Lately, I've often thought it would
be nice if time would just stop.

Perhaps.

I am afraid.

I'm not afraid of someone coming
along who is stronger than us.

But when I think of
that person showing up,

and my body being in decline, I'm afraid.

It really bothers me.

Being a human is inconvenient.

Is that right?

I want to acquire a body
that will never grow weak.

That is my greatest desire!

As you put on years,
I will put them on as well.

That's good enough, isn't it?

I can't put up with you, either!

You, who went so far as to sell your soul
in order to cling to a moment's strength!

Is that so?

In that case, we'll just have to
decide which one of us was right,

and which one of us was wrong!

I will take my remaining strength,
all three Rei-g*n shots' worth,

and blast you with all
of my spiritual power!

You must have been trying
to gouge out my heart.

You've gotten better at
closing in on others, huh?

You'll have to excuse me
for only using 45 percent...

Very well, I will show you
myself at 80 percent!

Th-The arm I tore apart!

What is it? What is this strange Yoki?!

Which plant will be most effective?

I've never felt a Yoki like this before!

What on earth is going on?!

Hey, Urameshi!
Where have you gone?!

What is this?! I'm getting
goose bumps all over my body!

I've never sensed
a Yoki like this before!

There are only four people now alive
who have seen me in this form.

My brother, Bui, Karasu...

and now, you.

Though you will soon die!

Pure strength, which transcends skills...
That is what power is!

Even the air pressure created by
thrusting my fist becomes a weapon!

Is that it? Is that the extent
of your power?

I need not have waited for
someone to come along and inherit

the Reikohado-ken techniques.

I should have k*lled you back then.

Back when you were strong, and beautiful.

You are not Genkai!

You are just a worthless
lump of skin and bones!

I am Genkai!

And I am not about to be
k*lled by the likes of you!

You will die. And it will be at my hand.

Be grateful that you are to be
k*lled by me, who knew you long ago.

I need power...

Power utterly different from Toguro's!

I don't care if I die...

I need at least enough power
to open Toguro's eyes!

Genkai...

What's the matter, Botan-san?

Master Genkai...

You're too late.

Time is without pity. Genkai's final blow,
with all of her power behind it...

was unable to even break my skin.

Ba-san!

He's fast!

Ba-san! Ba-san!

Stay with me! It's me!
Yusuke! Can you tell?

Ba-san...!

Ba-san!

Y-Yusuke?

All right! I'm going to take you
where everyone else is right now!

Kurama will be able to
do something for you!

I am going... to die...

Ba-san!

I-I've known... ever since then...

I have come with a
message from Toguro-sama.

Master Genkai, you are formally invited to
be a guest at the next Dark Tournament.

You don't know, do you?

My wish when I won
the tournament 50 years ago

was that I not enter
the tournament again.

I thought I told them.
Go back and tell that to Toguro.

Urameshi Yusuke has also been called
as a guest to the tournament.

Will you still turn us down?

Toguro-sama is waiting for the day

when opponents worthy of
fighting him come together.

Kurama and Hiei, a pair of Yokai,
have also been chosen to be guests.

Toguro-sama is thrilled, and says,

"The most powerful figures since
we were guest members 50 years ago

will be coming together."

Yes... when I knew that I would
see Toguro after 50 years...

it was at that time
I realized I would die...

Toguro... once fought alongside
you, Ba-san? 50 years ago?

The Toguro Team is victorious!

That's right. At that time, I was
reincarnated, from human into Yokai,

in order to preserve
my own strength longer.

That was my wish after winning
the Dark Tournament 50 years ago.

All of my friends were
fiercely opposed to it.

Y-Yusuke...

Ba-san! Don't talk!

L-Listen to me, Yusuke...

E-Everyone... must fight against time...

He... ran away from that fight...

He threw away... his pride...
his soul... and his friends...

D-Don't you make
that mistake... Yu... suke...

Y-You are not... alone...

Don't forget...

who you've become strong for...

Ba-san!

Her Reiki has disappeared!

Master Genkai's Reiki!

She's left us...

Master Genkai...

If only you, the successor
to the Reikohado-ken secrets,

had been born earlier...

I wouldn't have had to see
Genkai become this ugly.

There are only two paths to
follow for those who live to fight...

Become stronger, or die.

The moment she chose the path

whereby she would spend her
remaining years in idle depravity...

At that time, she was already dead.

You close that filthy mouth of yours!
I am going to k*ll you, right here and now!

I'll say it as many times as I like...

What is lying there is nothing
more than a rotting, beaten dog!

Damn you!!

Ba-san...

That was a fine punch, Urameshi...
the best one so far...

It's almost here! The day
when I fight at 100 percent!

I can't wait!

Puu-chan, what's the matter?
Why are you making such a sad face?

Botan-san has been acting strangely too...

Sheesh! Where has that
Urameshi b*stard gone off to?

And what the hell was
that enormous Yoki earlier?

Ba-san...

You concentrate your
Reihado into one point.

All right! Now stay just like
that for another 12 hours!

How'm I supposed to do that?!

This is training in catching
your opponent's Reihado.

Do this carelessly, and you'll die.

We'll continue until you can catch it
without so much as flinching! Get up!

It's no use! I can't do any more...

Bonehead! What good are you
if you give up after just this?!

You expect me to just
take this, you damned hag?!

See? You still had that much
power left, didn't you?

That just proves you aren't
doing this seriously, bonehead!

Shut up! You can take
your training and shove it!

Yusuke...

don't you lose.

Before the finals,

Master Genkai has had her life
taken from her by the hand of Toguro.

The time when Yusuke,
who is burning with rage,

confronts Toguro is drawing near.

I am going to make Toguro pay!

Yusuke, what are you
so depressed about?

Everyone else is polishing their moves
in preparation for the finals!

But what's going to happen
with you, their captain, like this?

Going into the finals without
Genkai is going to be a lot tougher.

You don't have time to be grieving!

Become strong, Yusuke, and win!

Next time, "Before the Storm:
Overcoming Sorrow."

I believe in you
