Touken Ranbu: Hanamaru (刀剣乱舞-花丸-)

The year is 2205 A.D.

To annihilate the History Retrograde Army, who scheme to alter history...

...we, who were born from swords...

...engage in mortal combat today as well!

"Touken Ranbu Hanamaru S2"

We're back.

I went with my little brother, um...

I'm Hizamaru, Big Bro!

...on an expedition.

Here's a souvenir.

"This anime is about the stories of the Hanamaru days

of a certain group of Sword Warriors in a certain citadel."

All right!

Excuse me!

Hey, General... I have a request...

That's quite a sigh.

Is something the matter?

There are more Sword Warriors at this citadel now, right?

So that's why Nagasone-niichan moved into the room I share with Hachisuka-niichan.

But this morning, it happened again--

Water...

Sorry.

That's why fakes are--!

Wh-What?!

I only resigned myself to sharing a room with you because Urashima said!

I said sorry, didn't I?

In the first place, to step over someone who is sleeping--

Hey, I'm not done talking yet!

Come back here!

I just wanted them to get along better...

Well, even brothers compete and fight with each other.

Our former masters, Minamoto no Yoritomo and Minamoto no Yoshitsune

did not have much brotherly love for each other, either.

But no matter what our former masters were like,

Big Bro and I get along.

Yup, yup, um...

Hizamaru.

...is dear to me, too.

Big Bro!

It's wonderful to get along.

But there's also the saying that the closer you are, the more you fight.

But I want us all to get along...

I see. Well, no matter what kind of Sword Warrior you are,

you are all this father's dear children, and that will not change.

Sorry.

You eat it, Big Bro.

At times like this, we can just split it.

We're brothers, after all.

Here, um...

I'm Hizamaru, Big Bro.

I know!

I'll kill you!

Take that!

You seem really into it!

I will be the MVP today!

Since I have something I'm going to ask my big brothers for later!

Guess what?

I was the MVP when I was dispatched today!

That's amazing!

As expected of my little brother!

So, as a reward, there's something I want to ask you two...

What is it?

Ask me anything!

I want to eat food that you two make for me!

Huh?

Urashima, that's...

All right.

Why are you agreeing on your own?

It's fine, isn't it? It's for our little brother who worked hard.

We can make him some food.

If that's what you want, Urashima, I have no choice.

I'm really looking forward to it!

I was gonna get some help,

but Shokudaikiri and Kasen are both on expeditions.

That's what a fake would do.

With a real sword like me, cooking is a simple matter.

Well, what will you make?

I am making this for Urashima.

Of course, it will be showy and extravagant!

All right, I have decided.

However...

All right...

"Quickly" "Plan" "Speed" "Efficiency"

Next is the savory egg custard!

It's hot!

Don't do anything unnecessary.

A whole grilled sea bream, complete with head and tail.

Finally, for the tempura!

You've been nagging this whole time!

H-Hey!

Laugh if you wish!

I cannot believe a real sword like myself can't even make one dish!

I'm not going to laugh.

I can't really cook, either.

What will we tell Urashima?

There's something I used to make when I first manifested.

A dish my former master used to like.

If that's okay, then do you want to make it together?

Wow!

It's delicious!

It's my first time eating something so delicious!

I'm glad...

You guys should eat with me, too!

I'm sure it'll be even more delicious if we eat together!

Then, I guess I'll have some.

Y-Yeah...

Dinner's ready.

I tried a few things with the food that was left.

What're we eating today?

Urashima, whatever you're eating looks delicious.

It is good! But you can't have any!

'Cause my big brothers made this for me!

You're lucky, Urashima. You've got good brothers.

Hey, fake...

Thanks for your help today.

It wasn't a big deal.

Because yours was ruined.

Oh...

However!

It doesn't mean I have accepted you.

A fake's a fake!

Night.

I'm back!

Welcome back!

--Welcome back! --Welcome back!

Welcome back, Atsushi.

Thanks!

Look at my new form!

So cool!

You have returned looking splendid.

I've definitely come back stronger!

Where did you train?

I went to Kuroda-sama's place in Chikuzen.

Most of what I learned was the basics of military tactics and how to use retainers.

I think Master has been managing us well,

but I will do my best to be able to assist when they are not available.

I want to spar with you, Atsushi!

Sure! Let's go to the practice room after I finish giving my report to Master!

Atsushi, you're back.

Yeah! I just returned.

Atsushi-san, welcome back!

Come show us what you learned!

I'm going to go all out, so be ready!

Should I attack first? Or will you?

It doesn't matter.

Then, here I go!

He's completely different from the old Atsushi.

Amazing!

I-I have lost.
