But old Hidetora...
:13:03
is seventy years old.
:13:12
I hereby cede total authority...
:13:16
over all my dominions...
:13:19
to my eldest son Taro.
:13:22
My lord, this is so sudden...
:13:26
Not at all.
:13:27
I've thought long and hard.
:13:31
There comes a time...
:13:35
to step aside...
:13:37
and pass on the reins
to younger hands.

:13:41
I say to you: that time is now!
:13:45
This is my will.
:13:48
Taro is now head of the
lchimonjis...

:13:52
lord of these lands.
:13:54
I will quit the castle keep...
:13:59
and move to the outer tower.
:14:01
I will retain a 30-man escort...
:14:04
and the title and insignia
of Great Lord.

:14:08
But the actual leadership...
:14:11
lies entirely with Taro.
:14:13
I expect all of you to obey!
:14:22
I'll obey.
:14:25
But what about me and Saburo?
:14:28
What do you intend for us?
:14:33
I give you, Jiro and Saburo...
:14:36
the Second and Third Castles...
:14:38
with their attendant lands.
:14:41
You will support Taro...
:14:43
in the First Castle.
:14:47
I shall be your guest...
:14:51
visiting each castle in turn...
:14:55
living out my remaining years.
