Turbulent times.
The grass under ones feet burns,
and many lives vanish as darkness falls.
Surviving on this land, where there is nothing left but ruins.
Even though the answer was nowhere in sight, I was wandering the land fulfilling my duty.
Till I met that thing.
The land we built since times past, crumbles under it's own bad karma.
Our own ignorance has brought upon us, this unfortunate situation.
Rebuilding what has been lost, at the cost of ones life.
Namu-amida-butsu.
It hurts.
I'm going to give birth.
OK, it's alright.
Drink well, grow healthy.
Water!
I found it first!
Move!
Something to eat...
Meat...
Something...
to eat...
Something...
Something to eat...
Asura
8 Years Later
This is the last of it, so eat it slowly.
Sayo...
If only I wasn't like this, sorry.
With the drought that's going on, everywhere is the same.
Who on earth...
Who could have done such a thing!
It's so horrible!
People are dead!
Someone killed them!
Their throats were cut open!
It's rain!
Finally!
It's all thanks to the god of rain!
You've eaten people, haven't you?
So you intend on eating me too.
I see.
So you don't know how to talk.
I want to see your heart!
Namu Amida Butsu!
It must have some sort of relation to this...
See you're awake.
To you, everything that's alive is an enemy, huh...
OK.
I won't kill and eat you.
Well, whatever.
I'll leave it here.
You are human, and yet you are not.
You're just a sad creature, who can't live without fighting.
Isn't it delicious?
You kill to protect yourself.
If not, then you wouldn't have been able to live, would you?
But you know, humans are beings that live by helping each other out.
Namu Amida Butsu.
Say it now.
Namu Amida Butsu.
OK, nicely done even though it's your first time.
Anger, grief, pain and murder.
You have the burden of suffering on you.
Asura.
That will be your name from now on.
It doesn't matter that he can't understand it now.
Just keep chanting that,
and become human.
Hey!
This is of no use.
Someone drop this one off in the valley.
Wait lord, this one's just weak.
If we give it food...
Don't get ahead of yourself.
We don't have much for weaklings.
OK?
Just make sure you deliver this to its designated place before sunset.
This guy tried to eat Saoru.
What's with this guy!
It still wants to eat.
Here, eat this!
It's like a dog.
Why is that kid following us?
It wants to eat Saburo?
Nothing to eat anymore, scat!
Ouch!
Hey!
This isn't a place where you can freely walk without permission.
That's right! That's right!
Go back to your village already!
You scum!
You're in the way!
Don't get in the way.
I won't be able to feed them, if we don't take this log to the other side.
Please let us pass.
Don't talk back!
Know your place!
What's with that look, you got a problem!?
Kotaro-sama!
What are you going to do?
Kotaro is the landlord's...
This is bad!
What?!
Kotaro was killed?!
Kotaro!
Jitou-sama!
Ko-kotaro!
My only son!
Who is it?
Who did this!?
Who was it?!
Speak up!
Jitou-sama!
It was him!
He killed Kotaro-sama!
What!?
Damn you!
I'll kill you!
You brat!
Don't think you can run away from me!
Die!
Damn you!
Now what will you do?
Why don't you try taking me on once more!
I wonder if he was killed.
Of course, he was up against Jitou-sama.
He sure was one heck of boy.
Sorry, it was hot wasn't it.
It's alright.
Nothing to be afraid of.
There there, be a good boy.
It'll be over soon, let's stop the bleeding, OK?
You sure held up well.
Good boy.
I know.
You must be hungry.
Here.
Asura.
Asura?
I got it.
I'll call you that.
Morning, Asura.
Asura.
Say, come here.
Namu-Amida-Butsu.
You can say sutras?
Amazing!
My name is Wakasa.
Nice to meet you.
Asura, this is an eye.
Say it.
Eye.
This is an ear.
Ear.
Eea...
Now try saying,
Wa - ka - sa!
That's it!
That's great!
I hope the rice comes out fine this year.
It should be alright.
Yea, I guess you're right.
Asura, you can't stay here, you must hide in the basket.
You're hungry aren't you.
Honestly, you shouldn't overdo it,
it'd be bad if the villagers found you.
It's pretty bad for that family, they didn't just sell their daughter, but also their babies died.
OK.
That's it for today.
We can come back later, after we've had our meals.
Thanks dad.
Asura.
Jeez, it can't be helped.
What a beautiful sunset, it feels so nice.
Thanks for bringing me here, Asura.
I don't think the villagers have ever come here.
We found a nice place.
This is the safest place for you.
Come here Asura.
Y-Yes.
They say that the city is beyond that mountain.
City.
I'd like to go there one day.
With that person.
Wait!
City...
If you want someone who can work, then how about that person?
Don't talk about things like that, right Wakasa?
Y-Yes...
Men really should be the ones to work.
This year sure looks like it's gonna be tough on taxes.
Yeah, whether we have food or not is none of their concern.
Asura!
It's amazing you knew I was here.
Look at these, they're mushrooms.
They're delicious if you bake or make soup with them.
I'll bring you dinner tonight.
Now then, lend me a hand.
We're gonna pull that big one out.
Mushrooms grow under the shade of trees.
They grow well in enclosed places.
Asura, you try searching for some too.
Don't hold that dangerous thing.
Give it back.
Say Asura,
you killed Kotaro-sama didn't you.
In doing so, you almost died.
I don't want to see anything sad anymore.
Sad...
Wakasa, sad?
You mustn't kill anymore.
Thank you.
Good boy.
So Asura, does it taste good?
We have plenty more.
I'm going to head back now, OK?
Let’s go and pick mushrooms again.
Don't eat this all at once.
Wakasa!
I wanted to meet you.
Me too.
I want to stay like this forever.
I don't know when it will be,
but one day I'll leave this place,
and I will come to take you away with me.
I really want to leave this place, and be with you forever.
Let’s run away to the city.
Wakasa!
Asura!
Shio-san!
I'm alright.
Shio-san!
Why?!
WHY?!
Stop it.
Asura!
What did you do to him!
Wakasa.
You demon!
Demon!
I don't know you anymore!
Get out!
Wakasa.
Demon...
It would've been better if I hadn't been born!
The one who birthed you into this world...
I hate you!
To have been born in a place like this.
What's this?
This creature, which is human, but also not human, regrets being born.
It would've been better...
It would've been better if I hadn't been born.
We meet again Asura.
Are you suffering?
It seems that you've learnt a lot of words.
You've become more human than before.
I'm not human.
I'm not human, just a beast.
Then let us close our hearts by chanting sutras.
I told you before.
Fight the beast inside you, and become human.
I'm not human.
Everyone...
Everyone's the same.
They kill each other if there is nothing to eat.
There are even people who devour their children.
Everyone is an enemy!
It's always eat or be eaten!
That's why I have fangs.
Asura, listen up!
It is true that everyone has a beastly nature.
Yet, there is something different about you from other beasts.
You have a heart.
Heart...
People have a heart.
As someone walks on a beastly path, they become more dejected.
You were saying that you were suffering, that's a sign of being human.
I haven't said.
But you were just saying it a moment ago.
I don't have a heart.
That is why I have no choice but to eat.
I am a beast.
Do you really want to be a beast that much?
Very well.
Give that to me.
I will give this arm up to Buddha.
Now eat!
Try eating my arm.
I am the same.
No one wants to eat human flesh.
As people have reasoning.
Yet, there are times when things are so tough that people lose their reasoning.
So you have to fight with the beast inside you.
Don't hate people or hate yourself.
Hate that beast inside you.
This is to celebrate that you have become human.
Seems its useless this year.
You sure have it tough, Gisuke.
Hey, is that alright?
What?
There are guys who buy people at Sakuji's place.
You can sell Wakasa for a high price.
You want me to call them?
Don't be a fool!
I won't sell my daughter!
Go away!
I'll remember this.
Go away!
Thanks.
Wakasa.
Actually there is less to eat here too.
The Lord is rationing the food these days.
So, um...
Sorry.
It's alright.
I was relying on you too much.
Wakasa.
I will do something myself.
Even if you say that...
We don't have any we can share.
Sorry.
It's alright, sorry for bothering you.
Of course we don't have any!
I want some on the contrary!
I will bring more the next time.
When is the next time?
Don't move too much.
You'll get hungry.
I'll come again tomorrow.
It's ours!
Why are you acting like it's yours?
This is ours!
Shio!
What are you doing?!
This isn't what it looks like!
That's ours...
Where do you plan on taking them?
Sorry, I can't let Wakasa die.
You want to starve us for some girl?!
It's our food, give it back!
I beg you, this much!
It's the horse thief!
The horse thief is here!
It's the brat that killed Kotaro-sama!
Come out!
Where are you?!
It went to the back of the store house!
What?!
That brat's alive!
Yes!
I saw it with my own eyes.
You brat, I won't forgive you.
Gather the everyone from the village!
Yessir!
I will make sure you die this time.
We screwed up.
What is it father?
I think I should have just listened to what he said at that time.
Before you become like that.
Well, it might not be too late.
What do you think Wakasa?
If you don't want to then it's OK.
I was just putting the idea out there.
It's just...
We need food.
Gisuke, Jitou-sama is calling everyone.
At such a time!
Any at rate, just hurry.
Can't be helped.
Guess I'll go and have a look.
I won't forgive anyone if they show mercy.
Listen, don't wait for me.
Kill it when you find it.
One years worth of rice to the one who kills it.
One years worth of rice!
Father went out in the middle of the night.
OK, I'll go as well then.
When you find that brat, you need to tell Jitou-sama.
It's that brat who killed his son.
If you catch him, you get one years worth of rice.
I see...
Asura!
Wakasa.
Don't lay a hand on my Wakasa!
Eat.
Meat.
You killed people again?
This is horse meat.
I don' t need it.
Then I will.
Father.
That is human meat.
Like I care.
I can't take this hunger anymore!
Thanks.
Stop!
Meat!
Father.
Those who eat human meat will fall into the depth of damnation!
Weren't you always saying that?
Can't help it, it's for living on.
Eat already.
No.
But, if you don't eat, you will die.
I won't eat it!
I'd rather die!
I brought it for you.
Cheer up.
We can play like we used to.
Why?
You do things that hurt me?
We can never play like we used to.
Jitou-sama!
Wakasa...
Wakasa!
Wakasa, this is horse meat.
So eat it, it's fine.
There's no point in trying to trick me.
Eat it!
This is horse meat.
Stop it, Asura.
Wakasa!
Stop it.
Wakasa!
Please eat it.
Listen, Asura...
If I eat that...
I feel like I won't be able to live properly anymore.
I don't want to live while holding onto that feeling.
You're suffering so much right now.
You'll suffer more if you don't eat.
I want you to live.
I don't want you to die.
So you must live!
Wakasa!
Why don't you listen to what I say?!
You idiot!
Asura, don't!
Catch it!
After it!
Hunt down that beast!
There it is!
Capture it!
Hey, how was your end?
It wasn't there as well.
There it is!
After it!
There it is!
Surround it!
Where is it?
Where did it go?
You!
You brat!
There it is!
It's over there!
Found it!
This way!
Okay, we've cornered it!
Kill it!
Asura,
I must have just passed beside you, among the 6 way life cycle.
But, I want to thank that affinity.
The thing that you taught me was,
that people can even live on, no matter what troubles they face.
Taking away life that was born,
and taking away life after life.
People still keep on living.
Burdened with crime.
Even so, trying to live as much as there is life.
That is why,
this world is beautiful.
