Stay back or you die!

Jugram

If I frighten you, feel free to run. You're not really worth my time, anyway.

Hidetomo Kajomaru

You mock the 13 Court Guard Squads?! Don't come any closer, I warn you!

Jugram

Have you noticed that you keep trying to dissuade me from my purpose, rather than engage me in battle? That smells a lot like fear to me.

Unfortunately for you, the war has already begun.

Hidetomo Kajomaru

Graaaaah!

Hn!

............

I see. Understood.

NaNaNa

It wasn't good news, I take it. You lose a loved one?

Rose

There any reason I should answer that?

NaNaNa

You betcha. See, I'm thinking it must've happened in Bazz-B's location. 'Cause if there's anyone still alive there, he's lost his touch.

Rose

Questioning the abilities of your own comrades? There's no art in that.

Izuru Kira has not only been a loyal lieutenant, he's been a source of great inspiration to me.

Just having him around when I pick up a guitar causes the melodies to flow out of me like a river.

It will be devastating for both me and my guitar if Izuru is truly gone.

NaNaNa

Sorry, man, I don't know much of anything about art or music. But I wouldn't worry about it.

I promise that you and your guitar won't even have a chance to weep for your fallen comrade, 'cause you're gonna be dead yourself in about five minutes.

Rose

You're right, you don't know anything about art. Do you think I could see so many of my men dead, and not grieve?

My guitar and I are gently weeping already. We'll shed no tears over your death, Quincy!
