1
00:00:01,461 --> 00:00:04,547
Long ago
in a distant land,

2
00:00:04,714 --> 00:00:09,427
I, Aku, the shape-shifting
master of darkness,

3
00:00:09,511 --> 00:00:12,931
unleashed an unspeakable evil,

4
00:00:13,348 --> 00:00:16,226
but a foolish Samurai warrior

5
00:00:16,309 --> 00:00:18,603
wielding a magic sword

6
00:00:18,853 --> 00:00:21,606
stepped forth to oppose me.

7
00:00:24,442 --> 00:00:26,653
Before the final blow was struck,

8
00:00:26,736 --> 00:00:29,447
I tore open a portal in time

9
00:00:29,531 --> 00:00:31,491
and flung him into the future,

10
00:00:31,574 --> 00:00:33,910
where my evil is law.

11
00:00:34,369 --> 00:00:38,373
Now the fool seeks to return to the past,

12
00:00:38,456 --> 00:00:43,127
and undo the future that is Aku.

Greetings, Imakandi.

36
00:05:18,486 --> 00:05:22,323
I am Aku, master of the planet Earth.

37
00:05:23,074 --> 00:05:24,867
I have traveled far

38
00:05:24,951 --> 00:05:27,662
to offer you the greatest hunt.

39
00:05:28,329 --> 00:05:31,707
A great prey runs free on my planet,

40
00:05:32,208 --> 00:05:35,962
terrorizing all that I have worked for.

41
00:05:36,420 --> 00:05:41,133
Many have attempted
to capture this elusive target.

42
00:05:45,346 --> 00:05:49,267
I present this challenge to you, Imakandi,

43
00:05:49,350 --> 00:05:53,437
for you are the greatest hunters
of the universe.

44
00:05:54,313 --> 00:05:58,818
I bring you countless
treasure if you accept.

45
00:05:59,819 --> 00:06:01,779
And if you succeed,

46
00:06:01,863 --> 00:06:03,865
the skies will darken,

47
00:06:04,657 --> 00:06:09,412
and a rain of priceless jewels
will flood your world,

48
00:06:10,079 --> 00:06:16,502
making you rich
beyond your wildest dreams.

49
00:06:20,381 --> 00:06:23,759
Our race has existed for countless eons.

50
00:06:24,302 --> 00:06:26,345
The hunt is our way of life.

51
00:06:27,013 --> 00:06:28,514
It runs through our veins.

52
00:06:29,181 --> 00:06:30,391
It makes us rich.

53
00:06:30,933 --> 00:06:32,894
Rich beyond material wealth.

54
00:06:33,477 --> 00:06:35,271
We accept your challenge,

55
00:06:35,730 --> 00:06:37,940
but we need not your treasure.

56
00:06:38,274 --> 00:06:40,735
All we want is the thrill of the hunt,

57
00:06:41,402 --> 00:06:44,113
for we are Imakandi.

58
00:06:45,031 --> 00:06:47,325
Ha ha ha!

59
00:06:47,700 --> 00:06:51,913
Yes. You are
truly unique creatures.

60
00:06:51,996 --> 00:06:54,749
I wish you a good hunt.

61
00:09:25,024 --> 00:09:26,942
This was a waste of our time.

62
00:09:27,359 --> 00:09:29,570
This prey is not worthy to continue.

63
00:09:30,071 --> 00:09:31,739
Let us inform Aku

64
00:09:31,822 --> 00:09:34,325
that he can have his prize.

65
00:09:34,408 --> 00:09:35,451
Aku?

66
00:09:35,534 --> 00:09:36,535
No!

67
00:09:36,827 --> 00:09:39,580
I will not be delivered to Aku
like some animal.

68
00:09:55,721 --> 00:09:58,182
We hunt, my brothers.

69
00:10:57,992 --> 00:11:00,494
Never before have I encountered
hunters of such caliber.

70
00:13:32,771 --> 00:13:33,856
Excuse me.

71
00:13:33,939 --> 00:13:35,274
I must commandeer your chariot.

72
00:13:35,649 --> 00:13:36,859
Like heck you will--

73
00:13:37,151 --> 00:13:39,570
Hey, man!
You're on it backwards!

74
00:19:59,700 --> 00:20:02,369
Congratulations,
Imakandi.

75
00:20:02,953 --> 00:20:08,375
You are undoubtedly the greatest hunters
of the universe.

76
00:20:08,542 --> 00:20:11,628
All that had preceded failed,

77
00:20:11,712 --> 00:20:15,924
but you... You have
captured the one being

78
00:20:16,007 --> 00:20:19,428
who ran free on this world of mine.

79
00:20:20,137 --> 00:20:23,682
Yes. Truly, this was
our greatest hunt.

80
00:20:24,224 --> 00:20:27,060
And this Samurai has proven himself

81
00:20:27,144 --> 00:20:30,605
as the mightiest and most elusive of prey.

82
00:20:30,689 --> 00:20:33,024
Yes, yes. Now,
please hand him to me.

83
00:20:33,525 --> 00:20:34,568
No.

84
00:20:34,651 --> 00:20:35,694
What?

85
00:20:35,777 --> 00:20:36,903
I cannot.

86
00:20:37,154 --> 00:20:38,572
A prey that has provided

87
00:20:38,655 --> 00:20:40,699
such an intense and noble hunt

88
00:20:40,782 --> 00:20:42,743
has earned its right to run free.

89
00:20:42,951 --> 00:20:45,328
It is the way of the Imakandi.

90
00:20:45,454 --> 00:20:47,330
Insolent fool!

91
00:20:47,497 --> 00:20:49,499
I will take what is mine!

92
00:20:49,916 --> 00:20:51,918
No, you will not.

93
00:20:57,799 --> 00:21:02,429
No!

94
00:21:16,443 --> 00:21:17,444
What happened?

95
00:21:17,819 --> 00:21:18,820
Where am I?

96
00:21:26,620 --> 00:21:28,830
You have given us the greatest hunt.

97
00:21:29,080 --> 00:21:30,832
You have earned your freedom.

98
00:21:31,500 --> 00:21:32,751
It is our way,

99
00:21:33,293 --> 00:21:34,920
the Imakandi way.
