The samurai faced off against the terrifying monster.
O-dokuro, legendary Yokai,
one of the many fearsome Yokai that stalked the world long ago.
-Yeep yeep. -Huh?
Yeah, Spot, it is awesome.
And that noble samurai, that Yokai-killing warrior,
was my ancestor, Miyamoto Usagi!
Miyamoto's sword, Willow Branch, was like lightning.
-Yeep yeep!
Ikuzo!
Again and again, he struck the dreaded Yokai with fierce blows.
Hah! Hyah!
-Huh?
It's okay, Spot, don't worry.
It's just Auntie's farmbotto. It's not even turned on. See?
Oh no!
Whoops!
Ikuzo!
Someone get a picture!
-Oh no. No! -Eep!
Eep!
No, no, no! Spot, move!
Eep!
Oh no, no, no, not the house! No, no, no!
Whoa! Whoa!
Huh?
Not the watermelons!
-Yeep, yeep! -Okay. I'm okay.
-What? -I'm not okay.
Do I even want to know what's going on here?
It was an accident, but I saved the watermelons.
-Oh!
Unbelievable.
You could have been hurt.
Does this sign mean nothing to you?
It means "no fighting the farmbotto."
-But he started it! -You're turning 16 tomorrow.
Act your age.
Look at this thing.
It's going to take all day to get it working again.
I'm sorry, Auntie. I was just--
I know. You were dreaming of being a samurai.
And, of course you're sorry.
You're always sorry, and you always do it again.
You can't just do the first thing that comes into your head.
You need to start thinking before you act.
Look at all this! Weeks of work ruined.
That's half our broccoli crop.
And you could have killed somebody!
Fine! So obviously I can't do anything right!
I mean, why am I even here? I'm turning 16! I should go to--
No. You don't talk now.
Just please fix that farmbotto.
Mm…
I'll never be a samurai if I stay here.
This has happened too many times.
She'll be better off without me.
I won't be around to mess up the crops.
And in the city, I can become a samurai like my ancestor.
I'll show everyone.
I've got moves like they've never seen!
Oof!
Auntie!
Hi.
I've made up my mind.
I'm going to Neo Edo,
and you can't stop me.
Whoa!
Let's just relax. You're madder than I thought.
You're right. I can't stop you.
Edgewing!
But it's your sword.
Go on, take it.
You'll need it if you're going to find a sensei in Neo Edo.
Your great-grandfather and I made this sword ourselves
back when I was your age.
And that crystal--
It's called the Omurasaki. It belonged to Miyamoto Usagi.
That crystal has been handed down from generation to generation.
I set it in the sword's hilt myself.
It has always brought me luck.
Well, almost always.
I love you
and I promised your parents I would keep you safe.
But I have to admit that you and this farm are
not a good fit.
This place is killing your soul.
-Goodbye, Spot. -Mm.
Take good care of him.
Thank you, Auntie.
And when you get to Neo Edo,
find someone to teach you the way of the sword.
A sensei.
I don't need a sensei.
I'm already the best. You've been training me for years!
You need more.
You need to learn respect, patience, and wisdom.
Only then can you become what you are meant to be.
A samurai.
Promise me you will find yourself a true sensei.
And that you'll be responsible with that sword.
The greatest master needs their sword the least.
Of course, you're right, Auntie. I'll find a sensei.
And I promise I'll be so responsible with Edgewing.
Who needs a sensei?
I'm already an amazing swordsman.
I'm going to the city to be the greatest samurai ever.
Mm!
Whee.
Oh!
Neo Edo.
We made it, Spot.
Yeep, yeep, yeep!
Neo Edo!
I can't wait to show them what I can do.
-Whoa!
Whoa!
I guess the Steamcycle is excited to be in Neo Edo too!
I think it's picking up power from the Ki-Stone!
Aw.
What is bothering my sweet little Ki-Stone today?
Are we all tuckered out from powering the whole city?
- Breaking news!
I've heard of these things. It's a newsbotto.
The criminal Warimashi has escaped custody!
Reward for his capture is 100,000 joules.
Maybe I'll fight that Warimashi.
The criminal Warima--
Okay, Neo Edo, bring on the bad guys!
"Ha! You think yourself a great samurai?"
"We will cut you down like a farmbotto harvesting broccoli."
"Your farm metaphors mean nothing to me."
"It's time to fight."
"Ikuzo!"
Ya!
Usagi is victorious!
And just as it seems things can't get any better for the mighty samurai,
he receives the power of the Ki-Stone.
To fight Yokai!
O-Dokuro, the Skeleton Yokai!
Karasu-tengu, Crow Yokai, master of martial arts!
- Tsuchi-gumo, the Spider Yokai!
"I am the ultimate Yokai fighter!"
Ya!
-Whoa!
Okay, maybe we'd be better off on foot, Spot.
I'll come back for ya!
Evening.
Look at the airship, Spot!
-You're gonna miss it!
Yeep!
Huh.
These fancy city robotto don't even work.
Hmm?
Okay, what's going on?
Do I smell?
Been worse.
Come on, I've been in town for half an hour
and I haven't had a chance to use my new sword once.
Please sir, you don't wanna hurt me.
Not really, no,
but it's time for lunch
and food tastes better after I hit someone.
Suddenly, the brave samurai, Usagi,
comes upon a helpless pig at the mercy of a big, ugly brute of a rhino.
What? "Big ugly brute"?
Well, I mean, look at you.
The name is Gen.
And your description is accurate, but still offensive.
I'm sorry, I did not mean to say that out loud.
Now, put down the pig or I'll put down the hurt.
Wait, I-I can do better than that.
Let go of the pig or I'll let loose on…
N-no, no. That's even worse.
Huh.
First time I ever met a rabbit.
Too bad I gotta smash it.
What the heck?
Thank you for your kindness.
You can't threaten innocent pigs on my watch!
I mean, not specifically… pigs.
When I think about it, really any kind of--
I'm a bounty hunter, bunny!
You just helped Neo Edo's most wanted criminal escape!
That was Warimashi! I've been tracking him for weeks.
Wait, wait.
That was Warimashi?
But-- but he looked so cute!
And you look like a stuffed toy, but you're about to look like a pancake!
Okay, hey, let's talk about this. I really am sorry.
I-I-I thought you were the criminal.
I want to be a samurai,
and samurai are supposed to protect the innocent, so--
Assess the situation and get the facts before you engage.
One of the first rules of fighting.
Didn't your sensei teach you anything?
I don't need a sensei!
Says the guy who just let Warimashi escape!
Ha!
Ooh.
Yokai!
Hey, my puppet! Let him go!
Tell him to let go of me. I'm trying… Cut it out!
Hey, that rabbit ruined my big payday!
That rabbit ruined my show!
Come on.
Sorry! My bad!
Hey, that's my purse!
And my wallet!
That fox is a thief!
-My money! -Thief!
I never said it was a free puppet show.
-Hey! -Grab her!
Aw, give me back my puppet!
-Stop! -Huh?
I have your Tokage!
Cut it out. I'm trying to look threatening.
Put… him…
down!
-Oh.
Hyah!
Hah!
Yeep yeep!
Are you okay? Speak to me!
Crud.
-Huh?
Hyah!
Yeep, yeep, yeep.
It's the Mogura.
The third most dangerous crew in all of Neo Edo!
Third most dangerous?
We're obviously number one.
I was gonna let you go.
Look, everyone. See who's gettin' a beat down today?
Chikabuma!
Huh?
Who is Chikabuma and why is he getting a beatdown?
No, no, that's not what I mean.
I am Chikabuma.
And you, my friend, are gettin' a beatdown.
But, uh-- -Shut up, you yonk.
Silence!
You have interrupted
snapping practice.
Okay, is something going to happen, or…
-Get 'em! -Huh?
Hyah!
We gotta get outta here before they do another power snap!
Hmm?
Hyah!
Oof.
Hyah!
-Yeep!
Not cool.
Chikabuma!
Hey! My puppet's back there!
You wanna go get it?
Not for a million joules.
Ooh!
I call dibs!
Oh, that should pay for a new puppet.
Hmm, maybe two or three.
I'm glad it all worked out.
So, my name is Usagi, and I'd like to apologize for--
Hyah!
Okay, I can see you're still mad.
-Yeep yeep.
Huh?
Oof.
-Ow.
-Yeep.
Yeep.
Those were priceless.
Oh, good.
I was afraid they were valuable.
I just swept in here!
Everyone, out. Now!
We just want to smash that guy.
Oh.
Okay. Go ahead.
Yeep.
What is up with you?
I've gotten a dozen complaints about power fluctuations in the last hour.
-Eep.
Hyah!
-Whoa. -Eep, eep!
Chizu!
What are they doing in here?
I ordered them out, sir.
Who are you?
Hi! I'm Kitsune.
I'm Gen, and I got no beef with you.
I'm just here for the rabbit.
-I'm U-- -Nobody cares who you are!
Shut up! You're all upsetting the Ki-Stone.
Whoa.
That's the Ki-Stone?
I thought it would be fancier. And more yellow.
Maybe with some like, lines around it, like rays shooting out and--
-Ow!
Ow!
Why is my face so stabby?
Can we have a time-out? I wanna look at the Ki-Stone!
Desist! I am Tetsujin, the last of the Kaikishi.
And I will not be disrespected.
The Kaikishi? The ancient order of Yokai fighters?
How can he be a Yokai fighter
when there haven't been any Yokai for a thousand years?
Hah! They're just old stories. They were never real.
-Hah! -Everybody shut up!
There are still Kaikishi.
I am the only one left.
This is the ancient Kaikishi Temple.
Um… Sir?
Not now, Chizu. And you!
-Sir! -Why do you look like Miyamoto Usagi?
He was my ancestor.
-Oof.
Embarrassing.
Why is it doing that?
Oh.
That's not good at all.
It's you!
You're the reason the Ki-Stone's messing up!
It's so cool.
Like if you had a friend who was lightning.
Stop!
Ah!
Oof!
-Huh?
Are those…
Those look like…
Yokai! Yes!
Tomorrow, I ask for a raise.
Huh?
Huh!
Miyamoto Usagi.
After all these centuries of imprisonment,
it is you!
I'm flattered,
but actually I'm Yuichi Usagi--
Silence!
You are to blame for my suffering.
I have waited a thousand years
to destroy you!
