The shogunate orders the Shinsengumi to move their headquarters to the Fushimi Magistrate's Office to combat the Satsuma and Choshu factions. A few days later, Kondo is shot on his way back from attending a war council, leaving him on the verge of death. The news makes Okita drag himself, weakened by his illness, to Sannan's rooms.
Day by day, the battle with the Satsuma-Choshu forces grows fiercer, and the Shinsengumi is made to feel the disadvantage of their inferior numbers. Amidst all of this, Hijikata comes to a decision.
Around sunset, I really 
thought I was going to die.
في فترة غروب الشّمس، ظننتُ نفسي سأموت حقّاً
Bei Sonnenuntergang
rechnete ich mit meinem Tod.
A la puesta de sol,
pero creía que moría.
A la puesta de sol,
pero creía que moría.
Verso il tramonto, 
stavo davvero pensando di morire.
Quando o sol estava pra se pôr,
eu achei que fosse morrer...
На закате думал, мне конец.
