Samurai Rabbit: The Usagi Chronicles

Miyamoto Usagi! Accept your punishment!

Ikuzo!

Oh, my gosh, this is finally happening!

Isn't this the best?

There is something wrong with that rabbit.

Ow! Maybe file that thing down, huh?

Okay. I'mma break something here.

I can handle this thing. I got it. You guys get out of here.

Save yourselves!

We would love to.

What is that thing?

It must… …be a Yokai!

I don't believe in Yokai.

How about now?

I'm open to the possibility.

Why… are you… so hard… to smash?!

I am Kagehito!

Oh.

Thank you!

I got this.

Okay. Maybe you got this.

-You've had a lot of training. -What? No.

It's just ordinary, uh, broom technique.

-I've never seen this kind of Yokai. -No one's ever seen any kind of Yokai.

I mean in books. I read about Yokai a lot. I'm kind of an expert.

Kind of a nerd, you mean?

Okay!

No!

You!

You…

You are not Miyamoto Usagi.

I'm his descendant.

Then you are not worth my attention!

Nothing will distract me from my soul oath.

The way must be made clear for the Old Ones!

That… was…

amazing!

Did you see me? I always knew I'd be good at this, but…

but I am so good at this!

What the heck just happened?!

That--

You all became the first in a thousand years to fight a Yokai.

Look at this place. It's trashed!

Sir…

And the Ki-Stone is very upset.

Look at her. She's agitated!

Sir!

Why am I the only one who cares?

The Ki-Stone is a mystical gem of inestimable power

and everyone treats her like she's just some kind of generator!

Sir! You're… glowing.

I am? Huh.

Maybe that explains why the floor seems so soft.

And also why I can fly.

Have you ever seen me fly before?

This is new, right?

Is he…

…a ghost?

No! I feel great!

Don't do that!

Whoa!

Whee!

Knock it off. That's creepy!

-Whee! -Ugh! Ghost germs!

I am not a ghost.

I think that energy blast from the Ki-Stone

rotated my waveform through higher dimensions.

I have a degree in quantum field dynamics.

You think you get a job like this without knowing science?

What?

Do you guys see that too?

Yes. We see all the weird stuff you see!

Ooh!

-Since you freed all those Yokai-- -Accidentally.

The Ki-Stone has decided to awaken the Shrine of the Kaikishi,

which is pretty neat.

It's just a rock. It can't decide things.

Just a rock?

Who's your buddy? Who's your friend?

She is not just a rock.

I've read about this.

The Ki-Stone selects a warrior.

And gives them a mystic weapon to fight Yokai.

Obviously, it has chosen my apprentice, Chizu.

What?

Who wants a mystic weapon anyway?

Is it magic?

Magic is just what we call things we don't understand.

Whoa!

Whichever item you choose will be your mystic weapon for life.

So think carefully,

and don't be impulsive.

Ha! I'm never impuls… Is that a yo-yo?

You have chosen!

What? Wait! I didn't choose.

I want the big sword! Come back! Give me something sharp and pointy!

Sharp and pointy.

That is the worst mystic weapon ever, man.

-So glad I'm not you right now. -I had one of those when I was nine.

A battle yo-yo.

Heh. You know what? On me, it looks pretty cool.

Attention, Rabbit. We know you're in there.

Oh! It's the Shogun.

We have numerous reports of a rabbit…

Huh?

…agitating with intent to cause public mayhem.

Is that… Is that how you say it?

Anyway, come out at once, or…

I'll be really mad. Seriously.

This thing is great.

It's like everyone has to listen to you. Why don't I use this all the time?

Is that the…

-Is that the rabbit? -Yes, Lord Kogane.

Rabbit, you come here.

Tetsujin. Why do you look different?

I'm glowing and floating.

Well, stop it.

Are you harboring that criminal?

I'm not a criminal.

No? We got dozens of calls about you causing trouble all over the city.

-The Mogura are super angry. -And he stole my pig!

Lord Kogane, there are Yokai attacking all over the city.

What?! There's no such thing as Yokai. Don't be dumb.

You're dumb.

-But, sir, they're everywhere-- -Blah, blah. Boo-hoo. No such thing.

Now, if you don't mind, I'm trying to look tough on crime.

Come here, Rabbit.

Wait. Why do you look like Miyamoto Usagi?

He's my ancestor.

You freely admit that you are descended from Miyamoto Usagi,

history's worst traitor?

What? Miyamoto Usagi was a great hero. He wasn't a traitor!

Yeah, no, he was really bad.

-We learned about him in history. -They put his face on every dartboard.

Look at me, arresting a wanted criminal

who is also the descendant of a famous traitor!

Who's tough on crime now, huh?

People are going to love this. My approval ratings will be over the moon.

Ooh! Ooh, ooh. Get a shot of me arresting him.

And one where I'm handcuffing him. And one where…

Uh, lean back so it looks like I just punched you.

Okay. And let's just get a crazy one.

Do whatever you want. Go nuts.

Great job. Come on, let's get this guy to jail.

I have hot yoga at six.

So… that guy's probably gonna be fine, right?

Yeah, rabbits bounce back.

I'm sure Lord Kogane won't throw him in jail for the rest of his life or anything.

You know, I just remembered, I got a thing.

Yeah. Uh, I should probably just cut out and…

Yeah. Tetsujin, you mind if I head out for a little, um, while?

Mm.

Oh, weird. I can feel my liver.

So squishy.

Your tokage can't stay with you.

But sometimes we make exceptions!

Who's a good boy?

So, your first day in Neo Edo

and you set a bunch of monsters loose and wound up in jail?

Man, that is humiliating. You must really hate yourself right now.

Yes, thank you for reminding me.
