Gintama 593

Listening to the "breakdown" ost of Gyakuten Saiban 6 case 3 while translating this really made me sad for some reason. (Oh and it really fit too.)



Also I have a plurk now, so feel free to friend me there and stuff.

(Side text- A fading light...)
GINTAMA
Oboro: So it has finally withered...
(Sfx- Zuzuhhh dsshhh)
Oboro: At long last..
(Sfx- Pota pota drip drip)
Oboro: This immortal blood too..

002
Oboro: With this...
I can finally return.
(Sfx- Goroh roll)
Oboro: It's been a long time...
However pain like this...
Compared to your eternal suffering...
Is merely the temporary discomfort associated with the prick of a needle.
Hear me, Takasugi.
I have now been freed of my blood pledge, and will return to the place I desire.
There is something I must tell you.
Not as Utsuro's dog,
But as Yoshida Shouyou's number one disciple.

003
Oboro: Something about
Yoshida Shouyou,
And Utsuro.
GINTAMA
Lesson 593: Two Utsuros.
SORACHI HIDEAKI
(Side text- The truth of an existence without a discernible end...)

004
Henpeita: The leader of the Tenshouin Naraku, Oboro is...
A man who became semi-imortal after being given Utsuro's blood.
And it is for the sake of Utsuro and Yoshida Shouyou that he exhausted that blood and his loyalty.
He did this as Yoshida Shouyou's first and last disciple.
Oboro met Utsuro when he was the Naraku's former leader.
Was there when he became Yoshida Shouyou..
And consequently when...
Yoshida Shouyou met his end.
And then...

005
Henpeita: When that man, Utsuro was born.
No, I should say...
When he was revived.
???: A irregularity caused by Altana?
We have never once seen a case like this!
There's no mistaking it...

006
???: That man is..
Immortal.
Tendoushuu: Utsuro.
Or would you prefer we refer to you as Yoshida Shoyou?
We simply thought you were simply one wing of the crows –the Naraku,
But what are you really, and where did you gain your abilities?
???: Utsuro...or Yoshida Shouyou,
The person that you all knew has long since been gone.
Those names have long since been forgotten,
As things buried deep within this body.

007
???: No, perhaps I did not have a name from the very beginning.
For as long as I can remember, I have not been referred to with something like a name.
Rather, I have been the recipient of countless slander and animosity.
The one animosity I do remember most is...
{Demon.}
{I came to see the demon who eats corpses...}
{But to think instead I'd encounter such a cute little demon.}
Heinpeita: It is unknown when and where he was born.
Utsuro has been persecuted and feared by those around him due to that immortality.

008
Henpeita: He has been slashed,
minced
skewered,
and burned alive.
That man has suffered countless deaths.
However each and every time he would be revived.
And each and every time he would return, the hatred and fear around him would grow.
It was enough to erase his very soul. He knew nothing but the taste of continuing pain.
Yet that man still did not die.

009
Oboro: He could not disappear.
Therefore,
He lived.
Countless deaths and countless lives..
In order to overcome the endless cycle of pain...
He created several selves...

010
???: To flee from the endless pain..
Countless personalities were born and I myself was blotted out.
And eventually I was locked away by someone for some reason...
Without a single person who knew who I really was.
When even the prison I resided in rotted away...
They who reside inside the prison known as me managed to break free..
And make their first move.
Those who were born from countless deaths...

011
???: For the sake of granting countless deaths to humanity....
They wanted to incite massacre upon people as repayment.
They who were called demons learned to imitate humans and live among them.
In exchange for what they were given,
They had the right to continue giving death.
With the mask of the yatagarasu—a shinigami.

012
???: The assassination organization –Tenshouin Naraku...
Their abilities were seen by the imperial court and then used as a Shinigami, where they chose to walk the road of being used as a tool.
After that, five hundred years went by, and despite the change of political climate or the owner of the tool...
They remained within the center of the massacre.
It's as if they had decided that since death would pay them no mind despite how much they yearned for it...
They would become the demon people desired.
And I,
Simply sat back and watched it happen.
The personality who loathes people, the personality who fears people, and the one who years to be with them..
They are all me.

013
???: Then..
The one who could stop all of them...
And struggle to,
change himself..
Inevitably,
That man would appear.

014
Oboro: That is...
Our master,
Yoshida Shouyou.

015
Oboro(?):: He was born to stop Utsuro who had become a shinigami.
Yet another Utsuro among countless others.
But this Utsuro would struggle alone against the others...
This was Yoshida Shouyou.
???: That man held down the countless other selves...
And sought to bring an end to the endless spiral of blood.
He sought to struggle,
and change.

016
???: And he would keep struggling.

017
???: However,
that...
(Sfx- Zaaah sffft)
???: You're the only one who's left.
Shouyou.

018
Utsuro: There's no need for any more suffering...
For you or them..
If despite our struggling,
We are fated to continue to suffer for eternity, then...
I will end it all.
I will kill all of me...
And put an end to all of this suffering.
I will end Utsuro once and for all.
(TN- Another interpretation of this line could be “I will end the abyss once for all”.)

019
Utsuro: Good bye...
Me.
(Sfx- Doon thooom)
(Side text- And thus the beginning of the end...)
