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!

Hey, I'm counting on you.

Touken Ranbu Hanamaru

"This anime is about the stories of the Hanamaru days

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

An enemy like that was just like a morning workout, wasn't it?

I smell something.

What is it?

Something smells good.

Ah, so you noticed?

It's this.

I put some herbs in this protection charm I made.

I begged Master and they gave me some.

That herb that Hasebe is always watering?!

There's only one charm imbued with this power.

You're not fair!

Stop sniffing it!

But it might grant me some kind of blessing.

I have raised Master's herbs with dignity.

I wonder what I could put in mine.

You made one, too, Kiyomitsu?

It's because I know what will be en vogue around here.

As expected.

You made yours to cheer yourself up, right?

What's everyone been putting in theirs?

I-I'm scared.

What are you doing?

38 - Tachi Kousetsu Samonji

I am searing the image of this beautiful flower in my memory.

Osayo picked it for you this morning, Nii-sama.

Right?

Now that Kousetsu Samonji has arrived, all three brothers are together.

Sayo looks happy, too.

Not yet!

They're getting stronger.

You're right!

Yagen's really been looking after them.

Yeah, they're really enthusiastic.

There!

I have to guide them.

Yagen! It's about time.

Whoops, is it that time already?

Okay, training is over!

Good work, everybody!

Today isn't just about sparring.

It's the day you've all been waiting for! We're going to the ocean!

All right! Yay!

Ocean! The ocean!

Let's eat lunch and get ready.

Okay!

The bathing suits Master made looks good on you guys!

You look good, too, Mutsunokami!

This wouldn't suit anyone except me!

Oh, the newbie has come, too?

39 - Wakizashi Urashima Kotetsu

I'm Urashima Kotetsu!

Won't someone go see Ryuuguu Castle with me?

I don't really know the way, though!

You're an interesting fellow!

I hope you get along with everyone!

It's nice to meet you!

Nice to meet you, too!

Be careful.

Right.

It is with the consideration of our Master that we are able to go to the ocean now.

Everyone be sure to thank Master!

Master! We'll be heading off to the beach now!

Master, thank you!

Thank you for the bathing suit!

It's wonderful.

Can't you lot be quiet?

Master has something they are trying to look up—

Ah, don't talk all at once!

Ah, is Master not coming with us?

You know why.

Master is the indoors type. Now get going.

See you later, Master!

We'll be going!

It's the ocean!

All right, the first person to reach the ocean is the sharpest!

It's me!

I'm number one!

Hot! Hot! Hot!

Everyone's in high spirits.

Sunburn is your skin's enemy.

Why did you come to the ocean, then?

To keep you company, of course.

You'd be lonely without me.

Huh, well, thanks for that.

Well, I'm going to head into the water, so come keep me company!

H-Hey, wait! At least let me put on some sunscreen!

Hot! Hot! Hot!

Five.

Six.

Seven.

The water tastes like something.

Taste?

You all try it, too.

So this is what it tastes like.

It has a metallic taste, but one more time.

I want to try going to that island over there.

Kamekichi! It's the ocean!

Do you wanna go swimming, too?

I see...

We can search for Ryuuguu Castle, too!

Urashima-san!

You can talk to the turtle, can't you?

Nope!

He doesn't understand me at all.

Ah, Kamekichi! Where are you going?

Wow, what a cute seashell!

I should collect some and make a necklace!

Look, Midare.

You get numb when this starfish stings you,

I wonder if it could be an anesthetic?

I want to take it back home.

Look.

That's so creepy.

Hey, stop it!

Help me, Atsushi!

Delicious! Wish I had soy sauce!

We can make good money off of this!

Ah, will you let me know if you see a mitten crab?

Why don't you do something more fun?

This is my first time seeing the ocean.

I did not get out much because I was a bird in a cage, kept only as decoration.

Souza-niisama, seeing this kind of scenery doesn't brighten your mood, does it?

Kousetsu-niisama...

I wonder if he's actually having fun...

Mutsunokami-san said we should make lots of memories today.

I don't have any memories.

You can still make memories even if you have none, though.

You won't need to worry about the past once you start making fun memories.

Oh, it went through!

Handshake! This feeling! This is a memory, too.

I haven't put my hand in yet.

Then, what did I just touch?

Turtle!

Kamekichi!

I wonder if the Shinsengumi played in the ocean, too.

Of course not.

What if the anti-shogunate faction had seen them playing in the water?

It was that kind of era.

That's true.

I dropped my sunscreen.

Say, Yasusada, won't you go get it for me?

Get it yourself.

Okita-kun would have gotten it for me if I asked because he was kind.

Jeez, I guess I have no choice.

One bold Okita strike!

Here is your memory.

What is this?

Isn't it pretty?

Here.

Would you like some tea?

Thank you.

The ocean is fun, isn't it?

Osayo, you are getting better.

Those brothers get along well, don't they?

What's the matter?

That's right! I brought watermelon! Why don't we all eat it together?

S-Sure.

Are you all having fun, too?

Something the matter?

Touken Ranbu Hanamaru

Did you enjoy the ocean?

Yeah, I guess.

It was a lot of fun.

I-I'm writing about the ocean today in my journal so I can tell Ichi-nii.

Well?

Isn't it pretty?

I'm making a necklace to give to Ichi-nii.

I'm going to give him star sand, too.
