Katsura: Swallow that pill.
It will allow you to die without waiting to your execution.
Though it will in actuality be a kind of state of suspended animation.
It can't be...
Kondou... you...!!

Kon: I remembered...
something I'd forgotten.
SFX: ZAH
Kon: I crawled my way back... from the Sanzu River...
T/N: The Sanzu River is a river one must cross in order to reach the afterlife in Buddhism. Similar to the River Styx.
SFX: YORO... (WObble)
Kon: I told you, didn't I?
Even if I have to go to hell, I won't leave you guys behind.
SFX: YORO DON
Hiji: Sheesh.
So you came back just to bring us with you?

Page 11:
Hiji: Well, then whether it's to Enma or Buddha,
we're not handing you over to anyone ever again.
SFX: WAH
T/N: Enma (Also known as Yemma) is the god of the underworld in Buddhism.

Guys: Let's goooo, Shinsengumi!!

Guys: And not to hell or to paradise!
We're going back alive
to our Edo!

Sasaki: Kondou-san,
unfortunately, you cannot escape from these jaws of death.
It is not possible for us to make it through those countless assassin's daggers.
So in that case... your only choice is to die, isn't it?
Yes.
The only way to survive here is to die.
I received a report from my subordinates
that an odd pill was found on the floor of your cell.
...If you have one with you, please use it.
That may allow you to escape the enemy's blades until your comrades arrive.
I don't know how convinced they'll be by that scar, though.

Page 14:
Kon: Sasaki,
it can't be, you...?
Hiji: Why?

Page 15:
Hiji: Why did you make it look like you'd killed Kondou-san
and make the enemy point their blades at you?
Why did you
protect Kondou-san?
Sasaki: ......I had no intention
of protecting him.
It was the same
back then.

Page 16:
Sasaki: I simply did not want
to lose to you Shinsengumi.
But
I didn't know what I should do in order to win.
However, it seems at the very last moment
I finally found a way.
Though while it may have been temporary,
I got to play the role of the man that defeated Shinsengumi Chief Konou Isao.
I am... satisfied.

Nobume: ...Isaburou,
wake up.
If you die in a place like this
I'll never forgive you.
We promised, didn't we?
We promised that I would be the one
to kill you.
Insert: That hand... she wanted to protect.
