Another peaceful day in the Hidden Leaf—
Or maybe not.
Guy Sensei, what's wrong?!
Ouch...
What is wrong with you?
G-G-G-G-Guy Sensei!
Might Guy - A Story of Love and Hair
That's supposed to be my normal shampoo, but my hair...
This?
Byakugan!
This is Orochimaru's doing.
So slapdash.
It's okay. Who cares about a few missing strands?
That's right, cheer up, Guy Sensei!
You...
You don't care?
Of course not!
You're the Leaf's Noble Blue Beast!
No one's going to care!
Guy Sensei!
Oh, hi... Here for training?
Nope! We're just bringing you a present.
For you!
You guys...
Something feels off.
He needs something aggressive.
No class.
What about...
I know.
That actually works!
Nothing creepy about it!
Guy Sensei has been reborn!
Thank you, you three...
But it's pointless.
No blood flows through a wig...
I can't feel any youthful energy like this.
It's just a wig. Is it really that big a deal?
Well, they don't make wigs with blood vessels...
I know! We have to find a wig that's alive!
Huh?
For example...
This will grow.
Growth is the problem?
Or...
The silhouette will match perfectly.
Yeah, but not him!
It's no good.
If I can't feel the love...
they won't make good partners.
Forgive me...
I'm... finished...
Blood flow...
Love...
Eureka!
What is it this time?
He needs a pet wig!
What does that even mean?
A living creature that you treat with love. That's a pet!
If he makes the wig into a pet,
then Guy Sensei's sure to feel the love!
A pet, of course!
Let's get moving!
Where?
Please, Ino!
Oh no.
Mind-Body Switch into this wig!
What are you thinking?!
If she controls the wig with her Mind-Body Switch Jutsu,
it can become a real pet!
No, it can't!
I think it will really help Guy Sensei!
Forget about it.
Please!
Please.
Please!
Fine...
Guy Sensei, good morning!
Allow to introduce you to the ultimate partner!
Lee?
I'm sorry, could you leave me—
Here you are, Guy Sensei.
Take a look.
What is...
Behold, the ultimate tailed beast!
100,000 Tails
His name is Cuticle!
He's got a hundred thousand tails. Can you believe that?!
Thousands upon thousands more tails...
...than Gaara's One-Tail or Naruto's Nine-Tails!
Everyone one of those little hairs is a tail!
Lee, did you...
Okay.
I'm not sure what's going on,
but I'm very grateful for the burning concern...
...you have for your teacher.
Sir!
Come forth, Cuticle!
This is the hundred thousand-tails?
It's a little...
This is no good.
I need to really make him feel the love.
Greetings, my most exalted master!
I am Cuticle!
You can talk?!
Exalted master, I give you my word that I'll...
...work hard to make you love and accept me!
I don't think effort can overcome that barrier.
Work hard?
Very well, starting today...
...you are my partner!
Wig is youth!
He did it...
Let's go, Cuticle!
Yes, my master!
Death Strike, Cuticle Frenzy!
Reload!
Sir!
Death Strike, Cuticle Frenzy, again!
I don't even get how that move works...
Here I go, my master!
All right, go!
Youthful shampoo dance!
Splendid! What a hot-blooded soul you have!
Cuticle, you're the greatest partner ever!
What's its soul got to do with anything?
Nothing, I imagine...
We gotta watch this.
Master, I would prefer to watch this one.
This one.
This is better!
Mine!
They're arguing.
Why are we watching?
Cuticle!
Master!
Cuticle!
Master!
I'm sorry, we'll watch whatever DVD you want!
Oh, master!
This is so cliché...
Why is he doing a rom-com scene with a wig?
And so it went.
I'm getting heartburn...
I can't...
Take it anymore...
Bathing with Guy Sensei...
Sleeping with Guy Sensei...
No more! No more! I'll die!
Sorry, Ino...
Sorry ain't cutting it!
I'll never recover from this...
Ino's at her limits.
Hey, look.
Guy Sensei's hair's coming back!
Time for the final stage.
Leave? But why?!
Thank you for everything.
But I must return to the Tailed Beast Village now.
Cuticle!
This was always going to be temporary.
Please don't. I thought we'd be together forever!
Master.
Your true partner is...
...up there.
Cuticle!
Master!
Live happily with your real hair!
Thank you.
I'll never forget you.
Seriously... No more...
No!
What's wrong, Lord Orochimaru?!
I accidentally used my poison shampoo!
How can I crush the Leaf Village looking like this?!
It's all right, Lord Orochimaru.
I, Kabuto, predicted this might happen,
and prepared a contingency.
Come forth, hundred thousand-tails!
Oh, I like it.
It looks much better than it should.
Today our three heroes are polishing their teamwork,
using new training—
Training, new—
Hey, are you all right up there?
Sorry. My throat's bugging me...
Well, that's no good!
I haven't had one day off...
It's catching up to me.
You want some time off?
Huh?
Substitute Narrator
You're sure you can handle narrating, Lee?
I really think I'd be better—
Don't sweat it.
I'll just work hard like always and do a bang-up job!
That's what I'm afraid of.
Okay, here goes!
This is the Hidden Leaf Village.
As usual, we can find three particular shinobi training their tails off.
There's only two of us here.
But our hearts remain as one.
Let's start by introducing them.
That far back?
Tenten!
A very kind young woman,
but a scary one, who can summon a plethora of weapons in an instant.
Her punchlines are sharp.
Lady Tsunade is her heroine,
but she has many inches to go to catch up to her, bust-wise.
She's the only character on the show with a Chinese design,
but the only thing that's really Chinese about her is her name.
Yesterday, she gained a ton of weight...
...when she ate an entire bowl of Ichiraku Ramen's—
Enough already!
Neji.
He likes cross-dressing.
That's it?
I don't do it for fun!
Two everyday ninjas, who went to a normal school,
and became normal ninjas.
But what makes them and Team Three unique...
...is their third member, a cool, strong man who everyone loves.
That genius of hard work, Rock Lee!
Why do you get the good parts?!
I'm really getting the hang of this.
I'm not sure you are...
Okay, Lee, I'll leave it to you.
No problem. Have a relaxing vacation, Mr. Narrator!
S-Sure...
Training, the light that filled your world.
Training, the hope that filled my heart.
The training that unites us. That pure, blue training.
What training are you talking about?!
Their first task is...
Push-ups.
Tenten dropped down and started.
Bending her arms, pushing her muscles to the limit.
Neji dropped down and started.
He put his feet together,
kept his back straight, and pushed off the ground.
Their goal was ten thousand reps!
That's impossible!
Next, they must to climb a waterfall, starting right in the middle.
Let us hope they get through unscathed...
Neji!
Let's skip to Tenten.
Skip me altogether!
Next on the schedule is shuriken practice.
Thank the lord, something normal.
However...
However?
I've really got a craving for pudding.
Let's do some pudding-cooking training instead.
Are you serious?
A young girl with a broken heart,
meditating as she is blanketed with snow.
A lone seagull cries out.
Neji's Byakugan prevents his eyes from drying out.
Byakugan!
The pair switch to harsh spiritual training.
This is insane!
The pair find themselves looking at...
The latest "Make-Out Dance!"
What sultry secrets lie inside?
Whoa, that's far enough!
Only the highest-caliber of ninja can resist such temptation!
The bell rings, and their trial begins!
Oh yeah, I'll just use my Byakugan...
Just a little further...
Neji!
What is the point of all this?!
Kakashi Sensei's the only one who reads this Make-Out stuff anyways!
You rang?
Huh?
Oh, hey.
Hey, guys, what's up—
We slipped away when he wasn't looking. Don't—
Naruto Uzumaki.
Always running around.
Just another Leaf Ninja.
Lady Tsunade oughtta whack him one,
as long as it doesn't make him transform.
What was that?
You're about to find out.
Oh, there you are Naruto!
Sakura Haruno!
If the village is a goddess, here is its angel,
its radiant beacon of hope!
Her forehead shines brighter than the stars!
Wider than the biggest ocean,
standing tall and proud like Mt. Fuji,
blazing forth like the morning sun!
I am but a gaseous nebula of love,
being sucked into the black holes that are her eyes!
Why is Lee narrating?
It's a long story.
Let's find someone else for him to introduce, so we can do something else.
If we get him started on Guy Sensei, he'll forget all about us!
Ah, we've forgotten one of the most important players!
Indeed, indeed!
You've gotta tell everyone about him!
Understood. Him, eh?
Meanwhile...
Huh? H-Hey, you're early.
I'm... Where are my lines...
Only one thing comes to mind...
...when you see that authority of antagonism, Orochimaru!
One thing?
Have at it
Um, err, uh...
Swallow 'em whole!
And then?
And then...
Spit 'em out!
Apparently his trademark eye lines are just makeup!
Looks like his real eyes are very small.
It's weird. I've been dying for a vacation, but...
I wonder what's going on back at the village.
Maybe...
Maybe they're fine without me.
Mr. Narrator!
Who, me?
What're you doing here?
You have to come back to the village right away!
Huh?
Seriously, right now!
Okay, he's been introduced.
What about him?
Him?
Yeah, you know, him!
Oh, him!
Kakashi Hatake, there he is!
It seems like the show's doing fine.
Fine my foot!
Um...
Oh, Lee, that other person wants you to introduce him!
There is a man who can cleave fate in two with his fist!
A man who would stand against the heavens themselves!
That man is—
Guy Sensei?
I can't even read in peace...
All done!
Everyone and their mother's begging for you to introduce them!
Traitor to the village, Uchiha Sasuke.
He's doesn't really fit in,
which is why he doesn't appear on the show.
Not him!
This is the problem! He's gonna keep bringing...
...up things we're not supposed to mention!
Please come back, Mr. Narrator!
All right.
Let's do it!
That's about everyone who's anyone around here.
Now it's time for everyone to train!
I don't think so.
Take him down, Mr. Narrator.
Leaving behind the gentle sound of crashing waves,
a lone narrator returns from a beach resort.
His long battle is about to come to an end.
His final opponent, none other than Rock Lee!
Disciple of Guy Sensei,
known as "The Leaf's Beautiful Blue Beast."
But his true nature is simply a training-aholic.
Desperately in love with Sakura,
yet his lack of game stymies his efforts.
He owes Tenten 3,180 ryou.
And he makes Neji cross-dress because he thinks it looks cute!
That vacation was just what I needed to get my voice back.
I'm so glad you're back!
Make sure you take better care of yourself from now on!
You're the only narrator we've got!
Y-You guys...
I was starting to worry if the show even needed me at all.
But to think all of you appreciate me so much...
Don't worry, I'll be sure to return the favor,
and narrate all your embarrassing secrets, too!
The narrator knows all!
Next week is "Save Ichiraku Ramen!"
Save Ichiraku Ramen! Vacations are for Training!
and "Vacations are for Training!"
I've never gone a single day without training.
Huh? Didn't you say you spent our last day off watching movies?
How dare you?! Those movies were part of my training, too!
Movies are treasure troves of useful genjutsu techniques.
They're not genjutsu, they're skits!
All these references are turning you from a ninja into a comedian!
