The Shinsengumi have decided to retreat from Fushimi. Chizuru and Inoue Genzaburo have headed toward Yodo Castle to request reinforcements, but on their way there, Chizuru's father, Kodo, who had been missing, suddenly appears in their path. Their reunion moves Chizuru to tears. She asks him why he disappeared, and what he says in reply horrifies her. While Chizuru is still in shock, Kazama appears and tells her a cruel truth. She is stricken with despair, and just as she is about to kill herself, Hijikata arrives.
It won't atone for the atrocities 
my father has committed.
هذا لن يكفّر الأفعال الشّنيعة الّتي ارتكبها أبي
kann ich nicht für die Abscheulichkeiten
meines Vaters büßen.
no expiará las atrocidades
que cometió mi padre.
no expiará las atrocidades
que cometió mi padre.
je ne paierai pas
pour le crime commis par mon père.
non farò ammenda
per le atrocità compiute da mio padre.
ninguém pagará pelos pecados
 que o meu pai cometeu.
это не искупит зверств,
совершённых отцом.
