01x60 - Ikari Bakuhatsu! Kuwabara no Hangeki

[bunniefuu]

In the third match of the final round
with the score tied at one win, one loss,

Kuwabara cut Toguro the Elder cleanly
in half with the Sword of Trials.

However, since Toguro the Elder can freely
alter the shape of any part of his body,

there was no damage.

To the contrary, he used his own body to
heartlessly portray the death of Genkai.

Kuwabara, injured and having
the Sword of Trials taken away from him,

was mercilessly attacked by
the regenerated Toguro the Elder.

"expl*si*n of Anger!
Kuwabara's Counterattack."

That's right, just hold
nice and still like that!

Kuwabara!

Oh, my! Contestant Toguro the Elder
slams Contestant Kuwabara!

If I don't do at least this much,
there's no telling what you'll try to do.

D-Damn...!

Contestant Kuwabara is down!

I will begin the count!

There's no use in struggling!

Being stuck to the ground in so
unsightly a manner looks good on you.

Kazuma...!

Even if you were able to
get up from there,

I am capable of moving my organs
around at will! How about that?

There's no way for you
to attack me, is there?

Don't go anticipating
a ten-count defeat, either.

I'm going to lop your head off
and k*ll you, see?

Don't you worry!
I'm going to knock you flat!

You can be sure of that!

Oh? Fascinating!

For someone in the position of a frog about
to be dissected, you sure make me laugh.

Go do your bawling in the next world!

What is that?

Now then, let's put
an end to the chit-chat.

If I could just grab that...!

6...

I don't know what it
is you plan to do next,

but your time is over!

9...

Kazuma!

Die!!

Now! Sword, extend!!

Aw, hell...!

You're the one who's gonna get dissected!

Go to hell!!

Hey, sweetheart! How about a count?

Contestant Kuwabara is
up on the count of nine!

Instead, Contestant Toguro
the Elder is down! 1...

The count is unnecessary!

I may have dropped my guard for
a moment, but Kuwabara, once again,

you have failed to do
any lethal damage to me!

D-Dammit...!

At this rate, no matter how many
times he cuts through his body,

it will never be enough!

What kind of creature is he?

How do you like that? There's
nothing you can do, is there?

Once my body is all
connected again, you're finished!

This really is a handy instrument.

It's changed its form to match
my mood right now perfectly.

What's that for?

Oh, my! What could this be all about?

Contestant Kuwabara's Rei-ken
is changing into an unusual shape.

What are you going to...?!

It's true that without knowing
where your weak spots are,

there's no way for me to attack.

However...

if I were to smash your
entire body, what would happen then?!

I-Incredibly, Contestant Kuwabara's Rei-ken
has made his opponent's body explode!

Hey, sweetheart, don't just stand there!

R-Right away...

I-I will confirm it...

C-Contestant Kuwabara is the victor!

Kazuma-san!

Thank goodness!

I'm not sure if I should call it an upset,

but this gives the Toguro Team
one win and two losses!

Kuwabara-kun!

Nice, nice, Kuwabara!

Are you all right?

For a minute there, I wasn't
sure what was going to happen...

Kuwabara...?

Why, you... Why didn't you say
anything about Ba-san getting k*lled?!

Am I the only one you
left out of the loop?!

Say something, would you?!

Did you think that if I found
out about Ba-san being k*lled,

I would chicken out and run away?!

Urameshi?!

Kuwabara-kun...

You keep quiet!

The rest of us didn't
hear it from Yusuke either.

Somehow, we just realized it,
and didn't see the need to ask about it.

You what?

Genkai Ba-san...
died right before my eyes.

Ba-san!

Y-Yu... suke...?

Urameshi...

I asked Koenma to take
Ba-san's place and help us out.

I braced myself for the worst,
knowing that all we could do is fight

with those of us who were left.

But even so, I still couldn't
believe it. It's like it wasn't real.

Even now, I think that maybe, by some
chance, she'll suddenly come back here.

And I felt that somehow, if I
were to say that she had died...

If I were to admit it... then she
wouldn't come, and I couldn't say it.

I'm sorry.

Urameshi!

Win.

Yeah.

It is upon us! Indeed, the fight
where blood will be met with blood!

The time has finally come to light the fuse
on this life-and-death battle

of revenge mingled with bitterness!

Yusuke...

S-Silence has overtaken the stadium.

Prior to the confrontation between
Contestant Toguro and Contestant Urameshi,

this is truly the calm before the storm!

Toguro...

I will go.

What?

Why is he coming out?

That's Sakyo!

Why would Sakyo be going?

What is this?

He couldn't possibly be thinking
of fighting Yusuke, could he?

Referee, your mic.

S-Sure...

Before the fourth match begins,
I would like to make a wager.

A wager?

What's he talking about?

Naturally, I will be wagering
that Toguro will be the winner.

And what I am staking...

is my life!

His own life?! That's what he's betting?

I get it.

For all intents and purposes,

he's making this the match that
will determine the championship.

In other words, whoever wins this match

will also receive the win
from the fifth match,

making it worth two wins.

Such is the value of a battle between
Toguro and Urameshi Yusuke.

Although I am in the
position of team captain,

I do not possess the martial
force to satisfy the spectators.

Instead, I declare here and now that I
shall stake my life on Toguro's victory.

That is, of course, if the other team
captain and the tournament head office

also say yes to this...

You've gotta be kidding! Who's gonna
bet their life on something like this?!

No, it's all right.

I will stake my life on the
victory of Urameshi Yusuke.

Koenma!

I'm the one who got you caught up
in all of this in the first place.

At least let me look
a little cool doing so.

But if you...

Never mind that. It's this man
named Sakyo that has me concerned.

His eyes are the eyes of one who has been
through the gutter over and over again.

The ambitions of a man who does
not care about self-preservation...

They bring about
tremendously destructive actions

that engulf not only those around them,
but themselves as well.

Such is nearly always the case.

The one person who can put
a stop to such destructive actions

is you, Yusuke, and you alone.

Get started, already!

Looks like they've come to an agreement.

Now what?

It depends on what
the head office determines.

We ask that you please quiet down.

There will be a conference of
the head office administrative personnel

to discuss Contestant Sakyo's proposal.

Thus, starting now, there
will be a ten-minute recess.

What?!

What are you talking about?!

We don't need no recess!

Let those guys do like they said!

Don't keep us in suspense!

So, what shall we do?

Well, this is starting
to get interesting, huh?

I'm going to go to the restroom now,
while there's time.

Just a minute. Shizuru-san...?

I thought that I had k*lled all
of the administrative personnel.

It's just an act.

It's more stirring this way, right?

So, we've finally come this far, huh?

It's been a long journey,
now that I think about it.

Yes... My parents were
completely ordinary people.

I was born into what you
would call a typical family.

There were five of us siblings.

I thought it was the ideal family,
even from an objective viewpoint.

My siblings are probably
all public servants.

I'm the only one who turned out like this.

In the end, it was this part
of me that turned sour.

It's not anyone's fault.
It's my own brain.

I just enjoy looking at
blood and guts, you see.

I went from dissecting frogs and fish
to dogs and cats, one right after another.

It didn't take even three years
before humans became my subjects.

But I soon grew tired of it.

Even now, the only thing that
gets me fired up is gambling.

Day in and day out,
I lived only to gamble...

and as a result, I rose my way
up through the underworld.

I've staked my life in place
of chips four times before.

That's not very much, is it?

There were several other times...

but everyone else realized
I was serious, and backed down.

The ones who accepted
the bets were others like me,

whose brains had turned sour.

Why are you telling me this?

Why, indeed?

Up to now, I have never
bet my life and lost.

I suppose that stands to reason.

But this time, I will win
for sure. Isn't that right?

I'd like to be able to say thank you very
much for placing your full trust in me,

but I do this for nobody else.

I fight only for myself!

I'm sure it's the same with him.

I know.

TEN-MINUTE RECESS

A decision has been reached. The wishes
of both parties will be observed.

Whoever wins this match will be
given two wins, and at the same time,

their team will be declared the champions!

URAMESHI

TOGURO THE YOUNGER

Yusuke... win...!

Both contestants, come forward!

Are both of you are ready?
Very well then...

That voice...!

What could the sound of this laughter be?

So you are our opponent
this time, Urameshi Yusuke?

That b*stard! Is he still alive?!

That blow earlier did indeed hurt.

It took some time for me
to connect together again.

This is a surprise!
Contestant Toguro the Elder,

who was supposed to have been
torn to bits by Contestant Kuwabara,

has come back to life!

Your defeat is now assured!

Urameshi, you cannot beat my brother!
Even Genkai lost to him! Even Genkai!

You son of a b*tch...!

At the moment when things
were settled with my brother,

Genkai definitely had her youth back.

In other words, even though she used
all of her power, she was unable to win,

despite having been many
times stronger than you!

When she was young,
Genkai was a fine lady.

I don't know how many times I thought
about taking her as my own woman.

However, even she grew filthy and senile,

and now that she has kicked
the bucket, she is through!

Urameshi, you saw it, didn't you?
The end of Genkai?

Very soon, I will send
you all to the same place!

b*stard...!

Don't do it.

Don't stop me, Kurama!

That scum will unquestionably
disappear very soon.

What?

That's what those two on
the platform are telling me.

Now, my brother, use me as your weapon!
What would you like? A sword? A spear?

Once we brothers become as one,
there is no enemy that can face us!

Out of my way!

What did you say?

You're in my way, Brother.

Why, you...!

You would strike your own brother,
after we sold our souls together

for the sake of the martial arts?!

You'll pay for this!

That has nothing to do with it.

I do not remember
selling my character as well.

I won't let anyone get in my way.

Are you ready, Urameshi?
This is one-on-one.

Yeah!

At last, the time of
confrontation has arrived!

The championship match
of the Dark Tournament!

Now, the fierce battle between
Toguro and Yusuke is about to begin!

I've clawed my way up to get
here in order to defeat you,

no, in order to show you why
Ba-san risked her life on me!

Let all of the power within me take flame!

This is the final battle!
Here goes, Toguro!

Next time, "Confrontation of Destiny!

The Tempestuous Battle
of Captains Commences."

The Other World's
not watching for nothing!
