Let's give up! I want to go home.
No, we've got to find it.
No theme park in our neighborhood!
No theme park!
Chatani Construction Company, Ieave immediateIy!
Leave now!
Stop destroying nature!
Hey, watch out!
Get out of the way!
Oh, no...!
The rocks feII.
Get the excavator!
Did we upset the fox spirits...?
There, we found it!
Is this the Yokai postbox, Kenta?
I hope this wiII reaIIy reach Kitaro.
OnIy Kitaro can get rid of the ghosts in your apartment house!

You make the best bath, Cat GirI.
Isn't it too hot?
It's perfect. I'm in heaven.
Hi, Yokai Crow. I haven't seen you in awhiIe.
''To Kitaro from Kenta Miura''
Kitaro! Where is that son of mine?
I'II Iook for him.
Thank you. These days he just hangs around and goes fishing...
An accident?
Don't you dare stop!
It's your fauIt, not the fox spirit's!
If the IocaIs protest, chase them with a buIIdozer!
Just get it done!
Any troubIe, president?
Things never go smoothIy, do they?
Monsters, fox spirits, the Yokai... I'II beIieve it when I see one.
Take a good Iook...
What?
Nothing.
I feeI awkward bringing this up but I need another 100,000 yen...
...to get those tenants out of their apartments.
I'II give you whatever it costs to secure the Iand.
I, Ratman, am compIeteIy dependabIe, Mr. president sir!
I'II do my very best to get you your theme park.
Dad's Iate again...
You have to caII him, Mika!
I saw a jeIIyfish monster.
Okay, okay. Maybe Iater.
Dad's been very busy IateIy.
He works untiI midnight everyday for us.
I'II have to seII this too...
I hope Kitaro comes.
He won't. There's no such thing as spirits and monsters.
But he can save us from bad monsters.
I onIy beIieve in what I can see and touch.
Let's eat dinner.
Thanks for the meaI.
Mika, did you hear that?
You just imagined it.
I'm going to take a Iook!
Kenta, wait...
Kitaro!
This is my ID, ma'am.
The SupernaturaI Phenomenon Research Institute?
Right.
I'm the Institute's director. The name is Ratman.
Something weird is going on here.
The whoIe buiIding's haunted. It's dangerous.
Better to just pack and Ieave.
I don't beIieve in that nonsense!
You'II be sorry!
Leave us aIone!
I advise you to move out.
I'II caII the poIice!
Hey stop that!
The Rat's breath smeIIs worse than a dog's.
That's that. Guys, scare the tenants away from here!
Let me bIock the wind.
Thank you, sir.
Can't smoke in the house?
Times are bad for smokers, aren't they?
Shut up, Dad! I can't hear the TV!
Good evening.
Buddha heIp us, Buddha save us!
Need an umbreIIa?
Move out of your apartment!
Leave now!
Live somewhere eIse.
What are you up to?
It's Kitaro! Better run!
Stop!
CooI!
Come back.
What do you think you're doing?
Uh... Sorry...
but this is our part-time job, Kitaro.
Your job?
We get 500 yen an hour to scare the humans.
Who hired you?
We can't teII you that...
This is not good.
Who hired you?
WeII it was your business manager.
Ratman? He's not my manager.
Now I'm in troubIe...
No wonder you get paid so IittIe.
Don't buIIy the humans anymore.
We won't, okay?
Good-bye, Kitaro.
We won't do it again.
Good night.
That self-righteous little brat!
Stop acting Iike a grownup. Go get a haircut!
It's Kitaro!
Don't be so friendIy, kid.
Are you Kenta?
Great! Kitaro reaIIy came!
We're not on first name basis yet.
Kitaro.
Kenta!
Here, Mika.
Kenta.
Where have you been?
Mika, Mr. Kitaro's awesome!
He scared the bad monsters away!
So you're Mr. Kitaro?
Yes. HeIIo.
Mika's my sister.
That's an unusuaI vest.
It's knitted with my ancestors' hair.
Why do you wear sIippers?
Uh... No reason.
How about him, Mika? You're Iooking for a boyfriend.
Don't be siIIy.
I don't want you pIaying with my IittIe brother at this hour.
Oh, sorry...
We have to be home by 5 pm.
5 pm? I'II keep that in mind.
We're going home.
I'II see you again!
Why am I apoIogizing?
I couId be rich if it wasn't for Kitaro!
No money in the donation box.
Japanese peopIe have no faith nowadays, huh, fox spirit?
Fried tofu.
It's hard.
Just Iike their views on the supernaturaI.
Oooh, that hurt! Who did that to me?
Oh, that hurt...
What's going on here?
Wait a minute, I have to Iet it out...
I aIready have a bad back.
What's this pIace?
A cave?
Look at that!
WeII, weII... Finders keepers it is...
''Antique DeaIer''
Sorry...
5,000 yen! You're joking right?
Nobody wouId give you much for this.
It'II make a good paperweight.
A paperweight?
It gIows at night! It's speciaI.
What a stink...!
Come back tonight then. We'II be cIosed though.
Is this reaIIy just a rock?
Yes. It has no vaIue whatsoever.
Out of pity I'II give you a smaII sum.
You don't have to take it.
Wait!
I couId use that...
You'II be sorry, cheapskate!
HeIIo.
I'II be with you in a minute.
Honey!
You've got to see this incredible stone!
Some kind of a jewel!
Incompetent fooIs!
You have to find the EviI Stone this minute!
I don't care how you get it back.
I, Kuko the EarthIy Fox, wiII become the king of the night with the Stone!
Tenko the HeavenIy Fox is powerIess now!
FinaIIy my time has come.
Go!
This stupid game...
Oh, no... I'II pass.
Who's withhoIding the 6?
The Evil Stone is missing?
The Tengu PoIice have aII their avaiIabIe men Iooking for it.
SeaIed in the Stone are 1000 years worth of monsters' grudges.
If it is misused it can be dangerous.
Judge Grand Tengu ordered the HeavenIy Fox to disempower the stone.
Tenko the HeavenIy Fox?
She's the queen of the fox spirits.
To make matters worse, aII the foxes except Tenko are sIy and cunning.
They're hard to deaI with.
What wiII happen to whoever has the EviI Stone?
The Stone gives great power to a discipIined creature of the night.
But if a weak being Iike a human possessed the Stone...
...he wouId be controIIed by its eviI force.
Those great heroes and conquerors who died in history...
The great samurai warriors who nearIy ruIed the country...
Charismatic Ieaders who defied the shogunate...
They were aII bewitched by the power of the EviI Stone.
That's the Iegend according to the Stone.
Those who were bewitched acquired power and fortune before their demise.
Power and fortune!
If the Stone faIIs into eviI hands, the resuIts couId be devastating.
It sure sounds terribIe, Daddy.
Kitaro!
The Stone might have faIIen in the wrong hands.
Why don't you go and Iook for it too?
That antique deaIer conned me!
Better watch out for an angry rat.
Cat GirI...
I've been wanting to teII you...
...not to caII my father, Daddy.
Oh, does it bother you...?
Sorry.
I'm going out.
Kitaro, be carefuI out there.
You!
Give me back the stone, you sIy fox!
You're pretty good to deceive a smart man Iike me.
Officer, this is him!
He's the one who brought the stone to me.
You, Iet him go!
Ugh, that stench!
Where's the stone?
The stone has been stoIen.
Who stoIe it?
The customer after you.
I don't beIieve you!
He's teIIing the truth.
I want to hear your story. Come with me to the poIice.
Okay! Let me go then!
I'm more than you can handIe.
Kenta.
Dad!
Why didn't you come home Iast night?
Looks Iike I'm going to have to go away on business for awhiIe.
For how Iong?
Be good. I'II try to come home soon.
I want to ask you a favor.
A favor?
Wow, a basebaII gIove!
What's in it?
Something important.
Don't unwrap it.
Keep this hidden untiI I come home.
It's our secret.
You can't even teII your sister.
Not even Mika? Why?
Because onIy you can know about my treasure.
OnIy me...?
A man to man promise, okay?
You'II be home soon, won't you?
Yes.
Then can we pIay catch?
Sure. We'II practice pitching.
Okay. Just between us guys.
Go to schooI.
Don't teII anyone.
I know. Dad, come home soon.
Haruhiko Miura?
Yes...
I have a warrant.
You're under arrest. The date is June 10, and it's 8:1 7 am.
The charge is theft.
Dad?
Dad!
Check, pIease.
1,850 yen for noodIes with meat and 2 with duck.
HorribIe noodIes.
What?
Don't come back!
FooIs...
Business men... They're just trained monkeys.
Give me the Grand tempura noodIes.
You can't afford it!
Just serve!
Kitaro, good timing. I'II buy you Iunch.
Why are you interfering with the human's reaI estate probIems?
Of course I know I shouIdn't but...
I was starving to death. Take pity, righteous one.
Liar. You wanted quick money.
Don't you dare caII me greedy! Okay, I'II never do it again.
I'II treat you to Iunch. Give him pIain noodIes.
I want tempura!
What about this prawn?
Kenta.
Hey.
Kenta.
You know your sister was kind of rude to me the other day.
I onIy came because you asked me to.
Kenta!
Is it true that your dad was arrested?
Did he steaI something?
Kenta!
Kenta.
It'II be okay.
You'II be okay.
Dad didn't steaI anything, did he?
Of course he didn't.
It's some kind of mistake.
We have to beIieve in Dad.
She's right.
You shouId beIieve in him.
Have faith and aII wiII be okay.
Mind your own business.
Let's go.
A fish is puIIing, Kitaro.
What's wrong? Why did you sigh?
No reason.
Why don't we go out for some fun?
I'II pass, thanks.
Go and Iook for catnip, it's the right season.
Don't be rude.
Come on, we'II have fun.
Not today.
Come on!
I'm not coming.
Check over here.
Look in the drawers, too.
They're here.
Detective, the kids are back.
HeIIo.
I have a search warrant here.
You know what this is? Oh, it doesn't matter.
You've got something of your dad's.
Hand it over.
Now.
My father didn't steaI anything!
I know you want to beIieve that but there's a witness.
No...
The onIy thing missing is the jeweI he stoIe.
Can I have it?
I don't have it!
Sure you have it.
Let me check your schooI bag just to make sure.
No, this is an invasion of privacy.
Come to the poIice station then.
That's enough, officer.
Who're you?
I'm Kishibe, their mother's brother.
You're their uncIe?
Yes. Their grandmother asked me to take care of them.
I'II come to the station with you but Ieave them aIone, pIease.
No jeweI.
We'II be back.
We're out of here!
Let's move!
Thank you and goodbye.
Are you... our uncIe?
Oh, my! Has it been 1 5 years?
Don't you remember me?
I'm UncIe Goro from BraziI!
Haven't you heard of me?
I guess I have...
Your grandma's gone seniIe so I came back to Japan.
I'm going to take care of her.
She's worried about you.
I got something for you. Chinese dumpIings.
Here's something very important to me.
A picture.
Is this me?
Yes, this is you when you were 2, Mika.
You've grown so much!
I couIdn't even attend my own sister's funeraI...
I have to pray for her.
There's nothing to worry about.
They'II soon reaIize that your father's innocent.
Thank you.
I'II make you tea.
No, don't bother, Mika!
So you're Kenta.
You're a good boy!
You're cute. Who are you?
I'm Kitaro from Ge Ge Ge Forest.
Come and dance with me. Get up!
No, I can't dance.
It's easy. I'II show you how.
Kitaro.
Aren't you having fun yet?
Go away.
Oh, this must be your girIfriend. Excuse me.
She's not my girI.
What's wrong?
Are you sick?
CouId you just Ieave me aIone?
Okay then.
Bye.
This pig's tough.
Kenta, this is yummy.
We're going to eat untiI we drop!
By the way...
...you sure your dad didn't Ieave you with anything at aII?
No, he didn't.
Right, Kenta?
The kid must have the Stone.
I don't Iike your food.
PIease Iet me go! PIease!
Is this some kind of game?
Oh, the Stone! I don't have it.
I don't have the Stone!
I can't stand it anymore!
How do you Iike the bath?
There's nothing better than a hot Sake bath.
The onIy thing that worries me now is the missing EviI Stone.
UsuaIIy you don't worry about anything, Father.
That's hot! Watch where you're pouring!
I'm sorry.
What's bothering you? Have you faIIen in Iove or something?
No, I haven't.
I have a coId...
I don't care who you faII in Iove with but stay away from human girIs.
Why?
Because humans die and that's the end of them.
It's too depressing.
You don't have to worry about me.
6 months ago, you were fired from the factory you'd worked for 20 years.
It's been hard financiaIIy taking care of your famiIy.
Out of despair you stoIe the stone from the antique deaIer.
Correct?
I'm sorry but I can't remember what I did at the antique shop.
It was as if I was possessed by something...
Sure you were. First-time offenders aIways say that.
''An impuIsive act of theft.''
Okay...
Get me the correction fIuid.
What's wrong? Are you sick or something?
Those viIIains beat me up!
Better watch out for this angry rat.
Kitaro, heIp me...
What happened?
I got bashed up...
You Iook awfuI, Ratman.
I need something to drink.
What have you done wrong this time?
Don't assume that I'm aIways up to no good.
I have important information.
The EviI Stone. A kid caIIed Kenta Miura has it.
What?
It sounds fishy to me.
Come on! I was bashed up for this information!
Fox spirits are taiIing the kid aIready.
Kitaro, where are you going?
FIying Cotton, come here!
Hi, where to?
Kenta.
I bought aII of this for you.
A basebaII gIove.
Why?
You want to become a pro baII pIayer, right?
No, thanks. Dad gave me one aIready.
That's not aII though.
I have a bat for you too.
And basebaII shoes too!
You're not my uncIe!
What are you saying?
You're not my uncIe! You're a Iiar!
Your poor dad. He's worked so hard aII these years.
Now he's been fired so he can't afford to pay the rent.
EventuaIIy he'II get sick and die.
Liar! I won't teII you anything!
TeII me what? What are you hiding?
Come on...
No ozone Iayer wouId mean many probIems.
MeIanoma and so on. Read the textbook...
...for detaiIs.
ExactIy what's going to happen?
I'm teIIing you, it'II be pretty bad.
When the ozone's gone...
Excuse me!
Are you a student here?
No. I dropped out ages ago.
Mika.
I can't find Kenta. Where is he?
Kenta?
Come with me.
Let me through.
No, what are you doing?
Sir. Mika Miura has to skip your cIass.
...Right.
Get on!
What's this?
You'II get used to it.
Maximum speed!
FuII speed ahead!
I can't beIieve this...
I'm reaIIy fIying!
The man who cIaims to be your uncIe is actuaIIy a fox spirit.
A fox spirit?
From a tribe of super foxes.
They're Iooking for the stone your father stoIe.
What are you taIking about?
You'II figure it out soon.
Kenta.
You dropped your cap.
Kenta, just give the Stone back to your uncIe.
Kenta.
Okay...
Where are you, Kenta?
Look at that.
Dad used to work at that factory.
I can feeI the eviI chi ! Hang on.
To the factory!
Yes, sir!
Find the boy!
Kenta!
Now, give me the Stone.
No!
What was that?
Kitaro.
Kenta.
Take us out!
Are you okay?
Kenta...
Kitaro.
You want the Stone too?
Not me.
It's your stinky friend's fauIt.
If he hadn't stoIen my precious stone
none of this wouId have happened.
Ratman stoIe the Stone? That idiot...
Give the Stone back to me and I'II Ieave you aIone.
Where is it?
I don't have it!
You brat...
You'II die Iike your father.
Dad's not dead!
You Ieave me no choice...
Get them.
You...!
The cat creature!
Get on!
I feeI dizzy.
Go.
Leave it to me.
How about you?
I'II come Iater.
Take them out!
Affirmative!
See you Iater, aIIigator!
Great, Kitaro. You got them!
We can escape now. Come on, Cat GirI!
Take care of them, Mr. WaII.
He's mine!
I'm a pIaster waII.
PIastering the waII, nice and smooth...
I'm done with the fox!
Dad, I'II keep our promise.
Is that Dad?
HeIIo?
ls this Mika Miura?
This is the Police Hospital.
Sorry to inform you but Mr. Miura is dead.
Is he...?
Thank you for everything.
Was that about Dad? I know it was!
Yeah. Dad is...
Dad's coming back soon.
ReaIIy?
That's great!
I have to be strong...
Kenta onIy has me to depend on now.
So I have to be strong...
Maybe you don't have to be.
When you want to cry, you shouIdn't hoId it back.
Kenta wiII be okay. He's a tough boy.
My mother died giving birth to me.
AIthough my father had aIready died before her...
he couIdn't bear the idea of Ieaving me aII aIone.
So he came back... in the form of an eyebaII.
An eyebaII for a dad.
It's not funny.
SeriousIy! He Ioves taking baths in a bowI.
It's not true!
It is true.
Who was that?
If you're feeIing sad, give Forgetful Hermit a caII.
He can heIp you forget your pain.
It's Kitaro!
He is the criminaI who stoIe the Stone!
Report to the Tengu PoIice!
Here you are. Sand Witch's home-made rice baIIs.
You must be hungry.
They Iook good.
If Ratman didn't steaI the Stone from the foxes
there wouId have been no probIem.
Yeah, that's right.
This oId witch's sand is rich in mineraIs.
It's good for your heaIth.
Don't be afraid and eat them up.
Sand Witch, they don't have to if they're not hungry.
Do you Iike it?
Very nice...
Anyway, where do you think the Stone is?
Kenta, you reaIIy don't...?
I know nothing!
Okay...
What'II we do?
The foxes think Kenta has the Stone.
We have to make them understand that they are wrong.
It won't be easy. AII the foxes are cunning except Queen Tenko.
It wouId be a waste of time trying to expIain it to them.
We'II protect the chiIdren untiI we find the Stone.
Let's go home, Mika. Dad wiII worry.
What was that, Sand Witch?
It's the Tengu PoIice.
We received information about the EviI Stone.
Kitaro is said to have stoIen it.
Me?
Who said that?
As the Yokai Monster Constitution designates under ArticIe 103...
Kitaro shaII be tried by Night Court.
Turn yourseIf in immediateIy.
Oh, no... What wiII you do, Kitaro?
I'II be okay. I can prove my innocence.
I'II go.
Take care of these two.
Come out quietIy.
Or we'II move in.
