Samurai Rabbit: The Usagi Chronicles

Huh?

Ikuzo!

Hyah! Hyah! Hyah!

Hyah, hyah!

-Wah! -He's gonna tucker himself out.

Guy, settle down.

Lord Kogane ordered us to get rid of the Yokai.

He didn't say to kill 'em.

So this is the cultural museum.

No one comes here. It's a dump.

It used to be great!

I mean, it's sad that the city has let it fall apart like this.

That's why it's full of Yokai. These are Tsukumogami.

Really? Tell us more, nerd.

Tsukumogami are Yokai.

They inhabit objects that haven't been taken care of.

Well, this place is full of things no one takes care of anymore.

These Yokai don't seem dangerous.

They're more annoying.

Stop that!

Hyah, hyah! Hyah!

Ah, hyah!

Usagi, you're just making things worse.

I'm finally fighting Yokai!

Yes!

Hyah!

Hyah!

Hyah!

Stop that!

What is that?

It's the Yokai. Yokai are made of spirit energy.

That's the spirit that was possessing the Shoji screen.

Uh-oh.

I think you made them mad.

Run!

They have a jewelry room in this museum?

Oh, how did I not know this was here?

I love culture!

Huh?

I promise I'll never snatch another purse!

Hmm.

Hyah!

Whoa!

Lord Kogane!

You are a thief!

You mean the jewelry?

I'm just taking it to have it cleaned.

Maybe? As far as you know?

You are a pickpocket and a purse snatcher!

For your crimes against Neo Edo, you will pay.

With your head!

Kitsune, are you okay?

No. Lord Kogane, he--

He… he was right there.

He was gonna cut off my head.

That's weird. Because usually with thieves, we cut off…

…their hands!

Hyah!

Hyah! Ah!

Yeep, yeep!

Ah!

Yeep!

You will pay for your aggression.

How do you talk with no mouth?

Wah!

Mm?

I know who you are!

You're Dare Mo, The Faceless One!

I drew pictures of you when I was a kid because I was bad at faces.

You’re one of those Yokai who can change shape.

Oh, that’s so cool.

I can do more than change shape.

I can destroy you.

Huh?

Hands off my friend, dirt-sack!

Yeep!

Hyah!

You can't defeat me.

I am stronger than you, with thousands of years of experience.

Maybe. But I'm closer to that sword.

Hyah!

Huh?

That was intense.

So, should we--

Ow, that's a lot of teeth! That's a lot of teeth!

Face the wrath of the hat!

Oh!

You haven't seen the last of me!

You know, they always say to expect the unexpected,

but when that's a hat with teeth,

I wonder to myself, is that really what I want to be expecting?

That's a lot of jewelry for a poor street performer.

Yeah well, that's a lot of judgy for a guy whose ancestor murdered the Shogun.

Miyamoto Usagi was a great hero.

Look, I'm hungry,

and this jewelry is sitting around when it could be buying me food

and possibly some shoes that don't have holes in them.

I think that's a better use of its time.

Hey, I--

Now how about you find Gen and I find Chizu,

and then we all deal with these Yokai so Lord Kogane doesn't throw us in jail?

Meep, eep?

Uh-uh-uh.

That is… suboptimal.

What the heck was that?

It is totally not normal for someone

who works in a temple to be able to do that.

Well, you know, my father taught me some things.

He-he was an amazing martial artist.

Hey, you don't have to tell me the truth, but don't tell me lies.

Ah.

Chizu, my young apprentice.

Tetsujin! What are you doing here?

It's probably Dare Mo. This Yokai who can look like anything.

You're not supposed to figure it out that fast.

Also, he likes to do this thing

where he turns around and his face is gone.

I am not going to do it now.

Oh, come on. Please?

No. It's no fun if you know it's coming.

Now would be a good time to go all stabby-crazy again.

All right.

Come on. We have to find Usagi and Gen.

Stop it!

You’re a beautiful piece of furniture with charming painted details.

And these plates are exquisite!

I don't want any of these precious things broken!

Dare Mo!

What's happening here?

One of them is Dare Mo.

Yeep. Yeep-yeep!

You! Prove you're Gen!

Tell me something about yourself only I would know.

You don't know anything about me. We met a few hours ago.

So it is you.

Dare Mo!

Stop it!

That's my sister.

Hi, I'm Toshiko.

So, Gen, your friends seem nice.

Wow, you guys look exactly alike.

Why do people always say that? We're totally different.

-His vest is different. -Look at her eyelashes.

I've been looking for you forever. Where have you been?

You know, first I was with a carnival,

and then I lived on a cactus farm for a while.

-And then I-- -Oh, shut up.

I missed you.

But, like, how'd you know he'd be here at the museum?

Do you always know what he's thinking because of…

…twins magic?

-Uh, it was a random guess. -I'm very museum-y.

You guys are so bad at lying.

Toshiko, are you in trouble again?

Well, um,

I kind of borrowed some money.

-Not the Bat Squadron-- -From the Bat Squadron.

-Is that bad? -The worst.

The bats are savage, relentless brutes.

I borrowed a lot. Like a real lot.

They are, um, kind of peeved.

Ugh.

Okay, obviously, I'm gonna help her. She's my sister.

Now, can we quit talking about this and go get killed by Yokai?

Huh?
