A timid young man
A gangster boss
Young man + The boss... Their souls were switched with one another
Taking place at a Child Counseling Center... this is a story of a hero...
...who saves children. His name is...
...Don Quixote.
Whadda ya want from me?
Just letting you know that I've already found out...
...this secret between you and Sabashima.
Oi oi oi! What the hell is this! Oi!
Hands off! Lemme go! Lemme go, dammit!
Huh? What're ya doin here?
After I had the both of you checked out, I found something really interesting.
What is this about?
Both of you know it best, right?
-Hey. -Yes sir.
You guys are 'dating,' aren't you?
-What? -Ah?
Sabashima.
Is that guy better than your wife?
-Uh, it's... -Listen, you....
Don't deny it! We know you've been hanging out...
...in the same apartment for days.
-It's not what you think... -Listen, arite...
If this secret leaks out about the next President, you'll be the talk of the town, huh?
Your reputation will be tarnished...
...and the Sabashima Group will be dissolved.
Listen, man...
We are not what you think.
Sabashima, I'm not gonna say anything more...
... but it's best if you withdraw your bid for the President's position, before you humiliate yourself.
Listen ok? That ain't true, arite?
-We would never ever do that. -It ain't right.
That Ajisawa bastard, he got it completely wrong.
He totally misinterpreted us.
Anyway, yer always actin all jelly-jelly in the knees...
...that's why, he had us mistaken.
Well, I don't know about that but...
...at least we should be glad that he didn't find out about...
...our switching, isn't it? -Yeah, that's right but...
That misunderstanding about us, that ain't good, too, ain't it?
Huh? Wait... That button's hanging loose.
-Button? -Yeah, near the top.
-It's loose? No! -You'll fix it?
-Can you do it? -Of course, it's easy.
-Arite then, fix it. -Take it off, take it off.
Thanks, man, yer a big help.
-Nope, don't mention it. -Oi, wait a minute...
...THIS is why they had us mistaken.
-Fer cryin out loud... -I'll close the blinds.
Eh?
Oi oi....
...if ya did that to begin with, then there wouldn't have been a problem.
I see what you mean.
Cooolll~...
...this is more like it. -Oh, Shirota, do you have free time?
-What? Only a bit... -It IS your free time, right?
I ain't got the time... I'm super busy right now.
What about?
Forget that and listen! I want you to help out with the kids' guidance group activities.
Why? That sounds too much of a hassle.
-Just do what your senpai says, okay? -Just wait...
-What do you mean 'wait?' -Oi Shirota.
You're a man right? I want you to do something.
What is it?
It's a job for a man.
Shirota-kun... says he's busy.
Oh, okay, never mind.
No, no, Nishi-yan, if it's a man's job then it can only be me.
Alright... push!
Nishi-yan!
Alright alright.
-I can't... -Yup, it's almost done.
Well-done, Shirota!
-Can't do it... -Okay, it's done!
Eh~?
Ah... still so hot.
Oto-san, we've cleaned up your home...
Such an unsanitary environment...
...could cause allergies to your children.
Sure, if you say so.
-I'm back. -Onee-chan, welcome back!
I'll just make lunch now so wait okay?
-Chika-chan, hello. -Hello.
Yep, hello~.
Oto-san, can you already let Chika-chan go to school?
Hey, sonny, how much do you get?
-Ah? -How much salary do you get?
It's regular wage... Anyway, Oto-san...
Really? People who get paid regular wages just to clean.
You guys have it easy, eh?
When I was making 3 million yen ($40,000)...
...I used to work for days on end without sleeping.
Oi... Listen, Pops.
Shirota, can you clean that part over there. Alright?
-Over there? -Yeah, it's Man's Job - Part 2.
Fine, fine, I got it.
A man's job, eh?
-Onee-chan, I'm hungry. -I'm hungry, too.
Just wait a bit, alright?
Mannn~, what's the deal with that guy?
Well, you see, his wife disappeared on them 3 years ago.
Huh? If he has all these kids, then why the hell is he just takin it easy?
And the biggest problem with it is...
...Chika-chan only goes to school 2 to 3 days per week.
He's a deadbeat dad... I'm bettin he'll be like that for life.
No, he's not a bad person.
If we could just...
...encourage him diligently, for sure he can change for the better.
-Whadda ya mean 'diligently?' -Oh, Shirota...
I'll be counting on you to clean their bathroom and toilet tomorrow, ok?
Eh? Tomorrow again? What the hell...
By the way, are you all set with the kids' fun assembly?
It's going smoothly, I think we're almost done with it by tomorrow.
-Great. -Eh, tomorrow?
-Hmm? -Fun assembly for tomorrow?
-Oh, are you interested? -Yeah.
Didn't I tell it to you... About the kids' group activities?
-Ah, right... ya did mention it. -So what's it to you?
Well, a fun assembly is supposed to be fun, ain't it?
But you ARE busy, aren't you?
Nah nah... I got plenty of free time tomorrow.
Absolutely... lots of free time.
Alright guys, say it in a loud voice, ok?
Ready... go.
Now, the adventure begins!
Wow... that was good. That was good.
Shirota-kun, this is not just about having fun...
It's an enrichment activity that aims to develop the children's sense of independence.
-So do your job seriously, alright? -Yep, understood.
Ok, here's the script.
'Don Quixote?'

::Story 9:: "Iron Masked Man vs. Dead-Beat Dad"
For this year's fun assembly, you'll be doing 'Don Quixote,' huh?
Yeah, but... reading this is too much of a hassle so...
...can ya just gimme the story in a nutshell?
Well, this is a novel about an old adventure.
One day, there was a man...
...who claimed to be a legendary knight named 'Don Quixote.'
Together with his squire, Sancho Panza...
...they went on an adventurous journey.
He mistook a flock of sheep as enemies...
...and insisted on what he believes in...
...and so wherever he goes, it was inevitable that he was thought of as a fool.
Finally, he became convinced that the windmill was a big monster...
....even though he can't win, he challenged it for a fight.
But he strongly believed in it, and didn't gve up...
...on the thought that he had become a real knight.
I see... that's a good story.
-Do you like it? -Yeah.
That Don-san's got the chivalrous spirit.
Well, he did attack away at a windmill...
...you could say that's he's absurd, though. -Nah nah...
He went around challenging others for a fight, and by that he's a real man.
Don-san is a cool dude!
Anyway...
...please do your coaching job seriously, ok?
Listen... what does a coach do anyway?
Well, in short, it means you'll be directing* them. [*'kantoku' also means 'supervision' but Shirota thinks it literally means 'director.']
-'Directing?'* -Yes. [*'kantoku' also means 'supervision' but Shirota thinks it literally means 'director.']
Cut!
C'mon, guys, gimme more feeling!
Oi, ya two... yer men, aren't cha? So do it with 'pow-thwak-bangbang!'
Arite! Ready, go!
Now... the adventure begins.
Oi, Sachiko. Yer my assistant director so go and assist.
I don't remember being appointed as assistant director.
The director had decided on it just now.
Shirota-kun, how's it going so far?
I've decided to take over as the director.
Shirota-kun, didn't I tell you that you're not here to have fun?
Enough of you, we'll just take care of this ourselves.
Nope, I can't leave this to ya guys.
Listen arite? Don Quixote is a man so no one can do this but me.
What?!
-What're you saying? -It isn't so bad, is it?
You did ask him to help out, right?
-Oh... but Chief... -However...
...whatever happens, you'll take responsibility til the end, okay?
Understood... And fer sure...
... I'm gonna turn this play into a masterpiece.
Honestly! Why the heck does he keep on imposing it all on me.
Yessuh! Let's beat him up!
Eh?
What're you doing?
Oh, Shirota had asked me to fix this script.
Script? You know how?
I didn't know you have a talent for writing.
It's so wonderful that my darling is so intelligent.
Darling.
Darr~lingg?
Sorry... I can't do that now.
Geez~...
-Boss, may we have a minute? -Sorry, right now...
The Ajisawa Group has been doin some very strange transactions.
-What? -Their admin guys are goin around our turf...
...lending out money with low interest rates.
No collateral? Really?
We're tryin to reach out to the people of this town and give our support.
However, though...
...you have to transfer your loyalties from the Sabashima Group to us.
That isn't good, right?
Yes, they'll just lend it for now...
....but later on, they'll be askin for an outrageously high interest.
-In other words, they're trying to trick them? -Yessuh.
Plus, they're encroaching in on our turf.
-What should we do, Boss? -Hyodo, what do you think?
For now, we need to know more about this.
You're right.
Wow, you do that so well.
-This is Ryota's favorite. -I see.
Yup!
Oto-san, can you at least, let Chika-chan...
...go to school everyday?
It's just school, it's not bad if she doesn't go everyday?
Having her to attend school is the responsibility of the parent.
-Dad, let's play! -Let's play!
I'll play with you, ok?
-That's great~. -Put your slippers on.
You guys think it's a simple thing to say but it's not easy for me to send her to school.
Yes, but last year, the law was already amended...
...so it means single-dad families are allowed to get child-rearing allowances.
Is that so?
I handed you the articles before...
You haven't read them yet?
Oh, it's probably here somewhere.
Well, since you have three children....
...I think you can get an allowance of 50,000 yen monthly.
-50,000 yen? ($650) -Yes, that's why...
...you can use it to buy school materials for Chika-chan...
...and probably enough to send Jun-kun and Ryota-kun to pre-school.
So with this, we're hoping you could rebuild your life!
I'm sure 'Hello Work'* can find you a job. [*government's employment agency]
And while you're out looking for a job...
...you can entrust your children to us up to the evening.
-So do your best, Oto-san! -Do your best.
Yes, I'm fine.
I'm a little short on cash so can you please lend me again?
-Yes, yes... -Murama-san!
I found some work for you!
-Let's look at it together. -Uh, ok.
How about this... Pay is from 180,000 to 220,000 yen*... (*$2,300 - $2,800)
...from 9 am to 5 pm.
Now, let's go out on a journey with me, Don Quixote.
Next.
Now, let's go out on a journey with me, Don Quixote.
Next!
There are no other kids left.
Fer cryin out... we still haven't yet cleared up on who gets to play the lead.
-Alright, come on in, guys... -What now?
-Shirota-kun. -What?
Can you let Chika-chan and the boys participate in the play?
What's up with these guys?
Sachiko-chan, take care of them please.
-Ok. -Fine.
I wanna hear ya read this.
'Now, let's go on a journey with me, Don Quixote.'
Yep... yer ain't it.
Wait a minute! If there's no one else, who will be left to do it?
It can't be helped... Don Quixote is...
...supposed to be strong and sturdy. So if he comes off as a sad...
...dandy kinda guy, then it'll be useless.
Are you an idiot?
If so, then why don't you do it yourself?
What? You will be Don Quixote?
Yeah, I'm gonna do it.
Why do you have to do it?
Ya see, I did try lookin...
But I don't think there's anyone who can fit...
...Don Quixote's appeal.
But... isn't this is a play for the children?
It's ok, aside from me, all the rest of the cast are kids.
That's why, you go and fix the script again, quick.
I don't know... I'm getting a bit worried now....
Oi oi... don't tell me you can't write me a good script?
-Fine. -I'm countin on ya!
Honestly... He's directing it, and and now he's starring in it...
He thinks he's Clint Eastwood or something.
Huh? What you said just now... who's that?
Eh~? You don't know Clint?
He's a world famous master... a huge Hollywood star.
'Master?' 'Star?'
That's good!
It's just AWFUL!
What's wrong?
Director, scriptwriter... ... and LEAD STAR!
Eh? Ya don't know Clint Eastwood?
What?
Ya see, he's some sorta Academy Award winner, and major movie star and a master.
From now on, I'm gonna go for that style.
Shirota, we've had enough of this!
Arite now, we'll start practicin'...
Sorry but can ya all move aside?
What?
-I'm going to stay here? -Oh.
-Sorry to bother you. -Sabashima-san.
I've asked him to be my stand-in in this production.
'Stand-in?'
-So are ya ready? -Yes.
Arite, ladies, we're about to begin... So can ya please go out?
-What do you mean by stand-in? -Arite, let the actors concentrate!
I am Don Quixote.
If you traverse with me to a country or two...
...you will be rewarded.
Really?
Then I'll go with you.
What is your name?
I am Sancho Panza.
-So... -Arite, stop!
Oi, tree! I mean you, Chika!
Yes?
Listen, yer a tree so can ya act more like a tree?
-Like a tree? -Yeah, a tree.
Chika-chan, you can...
...raise your arms up like branches.
That's right. Good, very good.
It's just a tree... What's so good about it?
C'mon, please try to be more gentle with your instructions.
Ya and yer nit-pickin... just shut the hell up!
Arite, one more time~! Ready.
Oh, by the way, I'm Don Quixote. How are you?
-Aren't ya somehow being too nice? -Yeah, but he is quite a nice person, isn't he?
Listen, man...
...Don Quixote absolutely ain't some dandy dude, arite?
Don-san is a rude guy, So gimme more 'pow-thwak-bangbang!'
What is that...
How can I know if you can't explain it clearly!
What the hell, ya bastard.
If you'll direct it that way, the actors won't be able to perform well.
-Yer not the main star, are ya? -Yes but...
Even though you're the director, you can't go around acting all bossy.
What the hell... are ya goin against the Master?
All you say is 'pow' or 'thwak' or 'bang-bang' Just too much sound effects.
When I say 'pow', then gimme 'pow!'
When I want ya to 'bang' it, ya 'bang' it!
...Just listen to what I say, ya bastard!
Cut it out, both of you!
-So more 'bang-bang', arite? -Fine, fine.
Yep, arite, next.
Listen, before Don Quixote finds the windmill, he'll be goin to this place.
Chika-chan, good luck and remember your lines, ok?
Yes.
Ok, ready.
Arite~... Start!
I am the lively Wind Spirit.
Whoosh whoosh whoosh~ I'm blowing you away!
I am the lovely Flower Spirit.
Aren't my flowers so nicely arranged?
Wi-... Wind-san, Wind-san, please don't blow so strongly.
...Kindly blow... -Oi, Chika! What're ya doin?
Look, yer gettin blown by the wind... so ya gotta move more.
I told ya that already, didn't I?
I'm sorry.
If you say it in a more level-headed manner, it'll be more respectable, right?
Just zip it, will ya?
Chika-chan, relax your shoulders and do this like in a 'fluffy fluffy' way.
That's right, that's right....
Oi Chika, til ya get it right, go and practice over there.
-Ok. -Hurry.
Arite, Sachiko, ya stand-in fer the tree.
Go, hurry up.
Listen you... I like that 'whoosh-whoosh' thing ya did.
But do it a bit louder... like 'POW!'
Hot...
So I'm gonna get 50,000 yen, right?
Yes... well, after you apply for it, it'll take some time.
What the hell!
It's ok, go on and write. C'mon, give them your address.
-You'll answer it? -No, no.
Murama-san, are you there? We've come to collect.
I'll take care of it.
No! You don't know anything alright?
Murama-san~.
Who da hell are you?
I'm from the Child Counseling Center.
Uhm, what can I do for you?
Murama-san owes us some money.
That guy borrowed money with no collateral but it doesn't mean he can't pay with interest.
-He's in, right? -Oh... I'm sorry.
Can I politely ask you to please leave for today.
What? This ain't your business, man!
Actually, I am in charge of helping Murama-san.
Can I ask you politely to please leave for today.
You're quite persistent, eh?
I am truly sorry. Just for today....
'3 million yen?!' He acquired such a big debt?
-Yes. -How did it get that big?
I think he spent a lot on gambling, and so his debt got inflated.
Ah, black market money... can spell trouble.
As long as Murama-san has this debt...
...he won't be able to rebuild his life.
He should consult a lawyer.
I will try to ask Murama-san for more details about his situation.
But don't drive him to a corner, or else he won't listen to you anymore...
...then, your efforts will all be in vain. -Got it.
Let's continue with our usual approach...
To help Murama-san make it on his own...
...let's follow through on that, ok? -Yes.
-Yes.
'Wind-san, Wind-san... Please don't blow so strongly.'
'Kindly blow more gently.'
'Wind-san, Wind-san... Please don't blow so strongly.'
'Kindly blow more gently.'
Shutttupp~! You kept repeating that for quite some time now.
Onee-chan will be appearing in a play this Saturday.
'Play?'
Dad, come with us and watch.
That ain't important... Hey, is my bath ready?
It's already hot.
Alright, Jun, Ryota, let's take a bath!
-Okay~! -Okay~!
'Wind-san, Wind-san... Please don't blow so strongly.'
'Kindly blow...'
-Finally, I'm done with the script. -Ah, really?
You see, the last scene here is the climax.
Wait, lemme see.
Let's see... Don Quixote... Don Quixote...
Hey, ain't my lines kinda long?
Well, I sort of got carried away with the writing.
But you see... your biggest moment is right there.
-Is that so? -You want to listen?
Sure.
'No matter what the hurdles are, the road will always be open.'
'Absolutely, there is hope.'
'Until then, we will not give up, there is no giving up.'
'Let us face it together... with the light of hope...'
'Let's face it...' Yup... 'Now... come along...'
'With this...?' '...legendary knight.'
'I am... Don Quixote!'
The only line you said properly was 'Don Quixote?'
Are you sure you'll be ok?
-By the time the play starts, I'll figure it out. -Then we're absolutely doomed.
Shuddup! I'm tellin ya I'll be fine!
-The hell... -'Wind-san, Wind-san...'
'Please don't blow strongly. Kindly blow more gently.'
Hey listen, I want ya to get me a new practice sword.
-Eh? -Just do it.
Chika, just a sec.
Oi, ya guys come, too.
Yep yep...
For your fun assembly for this year, you'll be doing 'Don Quixote?'
It's just that... in spite of being a grown-up, the guy who's directing it...
...will also play the lead role. Don't you think that's absurd?
-Really? -He would change the script to his liking...
And during the ending's climax, he has to say a really long speech.
There's no way he'll be able to remember it. He'll just ruin the ending.
He's an idiot, right?
-It sounds like you're having fun. -What?
You may be griping about it, but you seem to be enjoying it.
Good luck with your play.
Thanks...
'And let us face it... with the light of hope...'
'So, come along... with this legendary knight...'
'I am... Don Quixote!'
Nice~.
-Boss, we've looked into the case of the Ajisawa Group. -What did you find out?
Those guys are also tryin to spread their hold over the katagi* folks. [*not involved with the Yakuza or their businesses]
'Katagi?' ...you mean they're also tricking the ordinary people?
Yessuh.
Darling, don't you think it's strange?
-'Strange?' -The Ajisawa Group has been acting boldly...
...they could have something up their sleeve.
Boss... I, too, have found it mysterious.
Whatever it is, we won't let em take us lightly.
Ya guys!
Yer not gonna let em bring down the Boss, are ya?
No-ssuh!
Darling, do you have any idea what this is all about?
'Idea...?'
Oh! Shirota-san and...
What about Shirota-san?
No, no.. it's nothing.
It's really nothing... nothing at all!
Never mind, ok?
'Wind-san, Wind-san... Please don't blow so strongly.'
'Kindly blow more gently.'
Huh? You're still doing that?
-Hurry up and go to sleep. -I will.
Really now, even if you pay me to do that...
...there's no way I'd waste my time on such trivial stuff.
'Wind-san, Wind-san... Please don't blow so strongly.'
Yeah?
"Murama-san, how's it goin? Are you gonna be able to repay?"
No... I still...
"Actually, there's a big chance for you to get rid of your debts."
Eh?
Okay... okay... so...
Chief, can these Murama-san siblings...
...be granted temporary shelter for the night?
Sure, but why?
The dad has some work tonight...
...so he's asking us to take them in.
Oh, I see.
I wonder why the dad is suddenly motivated?
Yes, seems so... he's quite excited about it.
So then, Chika-chan and her lil brothers, we're looking forward to having you here.
Yes.
Don't touch the 'rocks'!
If it's there, it'll get in the way.
Look, there's a reason why they're here, arite?
Ya must absolutely NOT touch em!
Arite, go over there.
Okay, go inside, go inside.
-Hello. -Hi.
Let me help you with that.
Yep yep... okay guys, come with me.
Wait... aren't you going to take a look at the size of the windmill?
The windmill? Just take care of it yerself.
But isn't this the most important part of the set?
Director? Uh... about this line...
Yeah yeah... just practice it.
What the heck.
Nah, it ain't that...
Somethin better... No, not that. Better than that.
-It's nice, isn't it? -Just like in the book, huh?
-Sorry, we're late. -Can we help you with something?
Is it okay if you help paint the sets?
Sure thing!
Arite, arite... everyone's here.
Listen, as the director, I have to check up on some important work...
So if you'll excuse me, ya guys take care of that, arite?
Shirota-san!
What's with that guy?
All of us are working here while he goes away and takes it easy.
The play will already be held tomorrow... what does he have to check up on?
-Banker wins. -Alright~!
I won... wow~!
Alright! Yess~ yess~.
Boss, we got a list of the katagi people who got involved into the Ajisawa Group's scheme.
Yeah.
Huh?
Oi, Chika, how is it?
-Just a bit more. -Yeah, okay.
Daddy...
Onee-chan, where's daddy?
Oi, guys... go to sleep.
My brothers usually sleep with our dad.
Ya poor lil fellers.
Where's daddy?
Oi, guys, be quiet or you'll disturb your sister.
It's because your Sis is...
...doing somethin' important.
Yep yep... Huh? Pretty soon you'll feel sleepy.
See? Somehow, yer gettin sleepy, arite?
Yoshi yoshi... Tomorrow, I'll be countin on ya.
[Keihin Child Counseling Center's Fun Assembly Presents: "Don Quixote"]
-Are you okay? -It's heavy.
Sachiko.
What the heck's that?
Can ya fasten this up fer me?
-Where did you get that? -Eh?
You know that Sabashima-san likes antiques?
I got it from him. C'mon, help me with this.
You just want to stand out.
-Are ya done? -Just a sec.
Hurry up.
Good morning!
It's us from the Child Counseling Center!
So we're going to take this trash to the recycling company.
This way, it'll be refreshingly clean.
Once you have a clean home, it'll surely be a pleasant change.
I don't understand why cleaning it up will change anything!
Why the hell do you keep coming and doing this everyday?
There's nothing you can do for me, so just stop it already!
Enough with this and just leave me alone!
We're not doing this for you.
We're doing this for your kids.
We come here to clean everyday...
...it's all because of Chika-chan, Jun-kun, and Ryota-kun.
We also want Chika-chan to go to school everyday.
Oto-san, later today, at the Keihin Kindergarten Hall...
...Chika-chan will perform in a play which she had worked hard for everyday.
Please go and see it, it would make her happy.
So if you'll excuse us.
'Wind-san, Wind-san...'
'Please don't blow so strongly. Kindly blow more gently.'
Onee-chan, good luck, ok?
Jun, you'll remember what to do when I do this?
Yes, I know.
And you, too, Ryota?
Oi, ya guys, this is nothing, arite?
Right now, just think of the enemy as potatoes... just a bunch of potatoes.
What do you mean 'enemy?' They're our guests, aren't they?
Shirota-kun, how's it going?
I'm tellin ya... this is gonna be perfect.
Well, looks like this is gonna be your once in a lifetime performance.
Look forward to it, Chief and you'll see.
Arite guys, give 'em all ya got!
Yeahhh~!
Guys, can we have a lil talk?
Excuse me.
-Chief. -Is Chika-chan's dad coming?
We told him where it'll be held.
Arite! Don't be nervous, ya guys.
Keep it cool... Yoshi! Sachiko, let's go.
Yoshi.
Hey hey hey... This is Don Quixote.
For my beloved princess, Dulcinea...
...I will travel to 10 countries to help people in distress.
Rocinante, let us depart!
Yes, my master.
I am...
Shirota-kun's pretty good, isn't he?
Why is he the only one with a real costume?
Hey, are Chika-chan's brothers also going to appear?
Shirota-kun did seem to be talking to them.
Chika-chan's the tree, right?
I wonder when the two boys will appear?
Hey, you there.
Would you like to travel with me or not?
Are you serious?
Yes, I am.
If you go with me to a country or two, you will be rewarded.
What is your name?
I am Sancho Panza.
-Come with me, Sancho. -Yes, I'd be happy to!
Now, let us depart!
Sachiko, play the next song.
Can't believe he could actually do it.
What? Isn't that a monster?
Chika-chan, are you ok with your lines?
Yes.
Oi, good job!
Yep, good job, good job!
Yeah, good job!
Arite, guys! Get ready for Act 2!
Yeahhhh~!
I am the lively Wind Spirit.
Whoosh whoosh whoosh~! I'm blowing you away!
I am the lovely Flower Spirit. Aren't my flowers so nicely arranged?
Whoosh~ Whoosh~!
Wind-san, Wind-san... Please don't blow so strongly.
Kindly blow more gently.
Huh? Who's that talking now?
Chika...
Excuse me, you are Murama Kiyoshi-san, right?
Yes.
You are Chika-chan's dad, right?
That is correct.
Chika-chan had been working so hard. Please go to the front.
-Uh, no... -It's alright.
-Finally, it's the windmill scene. -Supposed to be Shirota's big moment.
Let's see if he's got the skills to pull it off.
Sir, that windmill... it sure is big!
A monster has appeared!
What foolishness are you saying?
Oi, can't ya see?
With it's big outstretched hands and open mouth, ya can clearly see that it's a monster!
Sir, those are just wind turbines.
Oi, Sancho, I'm tellin ya this.
Finally, this is it.
Remember, as long as there is life, there will always be hope!
Oi oi...
Remember, as long as there is life... there will always be hope!
Oi!
Oi, what's the matter with ya? Hurry and give the signal.
It's Dad...
Huh? Where?
Where?
Daddy~!
-Oi, bring back those two! -But I can't.
So then.. get me the script! Where's the script?
Fast!
Sancho, I'll tell you this.
Remember, as long as there is life, there will always be hope.
No matter what the hurdles are, the road is always open.
Absolutely, there is hope.
Until then, we must not give up, there is no giving up!
Let us face it together... with the light of hope...
So, come along with this legendary knight...
I am... Don Quixote!
Dad...
How come... those lines...
I worked so hard in writing them that I was able to remember.
I see.
I had so much fun... You were a great director!
Yeah, well... I'm a director, eh?
Chika-chan, you were amazing!
-Chika... -Dad!
You were great.
Shirota, that sure was nice.
It was a bit messed up but the kids had a lot of fun...
...so it was really good.
But what's even better was you were able to remember your lines.
Oh, that... yeah, well...
...through hard work, I was able to remember.
He means by using this, huh?
That guy's the worst.
Oto-san.
-Thank you for coming. -Um, it was nothing.
Chika-chan and the boys really did a great job.
Yes.
I hope you'll be able to move forward.
Yes.
-Thanks, thanks. -Good job!
It was really good.
Guys, thank you so much.
Nope, don't mention it.
Please do your best from now on.
Let's work hard together.
Yes.
Yoshi~, ya all worked hard!
-Yayyy~! -Great job!
Arite, guys, let's go and celebrate!
Yeahhh~!!
After school, I'll come and pick you up, okay?
Okay!
I wonder if Shirota-san can play soccer...?
Can you play it?
Eh, me?
What? Ya paid for that dad's debt?
How much?
Around 3 million, I guess.
Listen you... ya can't just do with it as you please.
-It's my money! -It's okay.
He'll return the money in installments every month.
Those are in the way... get rid of em!
Hey, new guy! You're too slow, make it fast!
Yes.
Hey, you guys also hurry up!
I really hate ya, man.
We have to switch back soon, or else it won't be enough no matter how much money I got.
By the way, what about that misunderstanding with Ajisawa?
Yeah, what should we do about that?
What if... we try to explain it to him...
...so he could understand our condition?
Look man, how the hell can we explain to him that the both of us have switched?
No, no... Ajisawa-san seems smart so...
...I think he's the sort who might understand.
Wait a sec... are ya sayin I'm stupid?
No no... you didn't get what I'm saying.
Hey, you've been actin all arrogant on me lately, eh?
Wai- wait... stop...
Who da ya think ya are, ya bastard.
-Wait, Sabashima-san! -What?
This is why they mistook us for that thing, you know.
Oh, yer right... I'll go first.
-Oi, ya walk far away from me. -Okay okay.
