Episode Title:
Last Rendezvous.
Episode Description:
At the Toki Pass on the Kouga-Iga border, the betrothed lovers Kouga Gennosuke of the Kouga clan and Oboro of the Iga clan hope peace will finally reign between the clans. However Kouga Udono Jousuke intercepts and Oden’s hawk carrying the scroll containing the names, and then encounters Iga Azuki Rousai. Rousai suggests a ninpou game for the scroll. Meanwhile, Kazamachi Shougen nears the Kouga Manjidani (compound), with the Kouga copy of the scroll, planning to eliminate the Iga on the list. The next morning as Gennosuke and Oboro return home, they meet the Iga Akeginu, Mino Nenki, Hotarubi and Amayo Jingorou. They are interrupted by Rousai and Jousuke and Oboro is handed the Iga copy of the scroll. Without reading it, Oboro accompanies Gennosuke and sends the scroll back to the Iga Tsubagakure where Yakushiji Tenzen is pleased to receive news of the cancellation of the longstanding truce.
