As soon as I've finally got my hand on the PM's seat that my heart has greatly desired,
Of all things, my body has changed with my stupid university student son's body...
- Are you Sho? - Father?
From tomorrow, The National Diet,
How we can survive it. We must think about it!
- What is it? - You are the Prime Minister!
For the sake of our citizens,
We will do zendokoro at the tokoroari.
Thanks to my stupid son, miraculously, my approval rating, and my popularity too has suddenly risen
But…
The CIA's new state of the art technology has been stolen by someone.
- What kind of technology? - A remote control for brain waves,
It is the latest device Moreover, for both of you,
- There's a possibility that it has been discharged. - Discharged?
In order to chase the mastermind of this changing place terror,
We infiltrated a free school…
Prime Minister, for you.
This is a fund-raising campaign for saving a free school,
that will be closed because of financial difficulties…
I want to go back to my 22 year old self!
I want to be a Prime Minister!
The culprit who stole the CIA's technology for changing brain waves, has been arrested.
- Who is he? - A former director of the CIA's department of information analysis,
Peter Mitcham!
- Have they caught the mastermind! - They haven't caught the mastermind.
Detective Nitta from public security,
is about to finally see the true identity of the mastermind…
At the place that all of us don't know, a trap that will shake the world,
has been spread like a spider's nest
Thanks to Sho-chan's campaign idea,
Our approval rating is up again! It soars rapidly Aya-san.
Somehow, the crisis that comes to Mutou Cabinet,
It's not an exaggeration, if we say that the crisis is solved by Sho-kun.
- Recouping one's strength for renewed attack (kendo jyuurai) is this thing, right. - Kendo Chorai?
- To regain one's strength. - Makikaesu (to rally)?
- Idiot. - That idiot is your saviour.
- Kyuuseijyu (saviour)? …To help. - Shut up!
Ah, it's from Nitta-san.
So, do you know who is the bastard that plays with my brainwaves?
I'll report from the CIA, I know that the one who stole the technology to hijack brainwaves,
Peter... Peter Mitcham! From his bank account,
We have confirmed the company which transferred him the large amount of money
-Oh! - Now that company called Troebin,
Though we investigated it, we can't find anything. It's just a name
- Jittai? - Entity (jittai).
- Somehow, I can't stand it. - I'm sorry.
At the same time of the brain waves hijack We are approaching the radio wave source
- Eh!? - Do you mean I can soon go back to my own body?
Yes… I'll report again later
- Just a little more. - We just need to wait a little more!
I can finally go back to my body!
We are saved, I have had enough.
- At your limit? - Yes, like that.
Ok, let's have a toast!
Of course, with this high-quality sake…
- Sho-chan too, please drink. - Yes.
Bring me milk as the chaser.
Ah, before that, I need to check my emails for a moment.
- Is it Mai-chan. - It's not.
Eh!?
What's that, you're boring.
Because, this. I got a lot of strange emails…
This…
Look… at my computer too,
There are a lot of strange emails...
An affair with a young woman. - Aunty.
Mutou Taizan is a pervert! - Erika-san.
He thought he will be forgiven if he cries!
It's not a dance, he tried to memorize Kanji!
He wants to start over from middle school!
What is this!?
It's spreading.
There's no mistake. It's a negative campaign…
It has become dangerous Taizan
I've known a lot of politicians who've disappeared because of rumours.
Now, you're in that risk.
Shiroyama-san too, about this time matter, He is very worried
If it stays like this, do you know what'll happen!
So～ this difficult situation, How we can survive it.
Still, If both of you still change places…
Nice!
Shut up…!
A headline news for today
A large amount of emails with subjects that slander Prime Minister Mutou,
has created an indiscriminate incident
These emails were done with high security measures,
and were also sent from a mail software,
An expert Person or organization,
that has high skills on the internet,
is believed to be the one who has sent those emails.
The culprit must have a connection with brain waves jack.
Seize the source!
Though I don't want to hear it, what is it?
Inside the computer at PM's secretary's room,
A large amount of unauthorized emails that ridicule the Prime Minister have been found.
I think these emails are sent to the computer in the Prime Minister's office…
As expected.
I want Kuramoto-san to lend me his power.
This is what you call an idiot face.
- Don't laugh idiot. - But, this…
- Cut it out! - I'm sorry.
Tai-san, Tai-san…
- Aah! - Please take a look at this.
The Yellow Cap Campaign is not an idea of an unknown college student,
Actually, it is the Prime Minister's suggestion,
An activity that is done by his university student son,
because of his patronage to a certain free school,
From a coverage, it's been confirmed that it's a faked situation which is done by Prime Minister Mutou…
They are really working hard with the news coverage.
Kaibara! Identify the source! Someone is manipulating the media for his own benefit.
Kariyan! Immediately open an emergency press conference!
No, that video might also be exploited.
Here, I… Please arrange an emergency press conference.
Nope, it's not the Prime Minister. The Chief Cabinet Secretary that will do the press conference.
The government, regarding this situation,
We are more than willing to find the truth behind this incident.
- Yes. - Whether this is a false rumour or not,
Isn't this the truth? From images which are floating around the internet,
There are things that can't be described with words.
In relation to that matter, Now, we are still trying to verify it. Yes.
- Yes. - About the yellow cap campaign,
Is it true the rumour about the yellow cap campaign is the Prime Minister's idea?
Nope, that's not true.
Any other questions…
- Yes. - The intelligent security at Prime Minister's official resident,
Is it perfect?
Please believe that it's perfect.
Ok, it's enough.
It was good to live in the time when we didn't have the internet.
I understand.
Prime Minister needs to open a secret emergency meeting.
- Please do the meeting at the usual tatami-room. - A meeting with the elder…?
We are heavily attacked now.
- The back meeting is, - Is it the same as a secret meeting?
- Yes, yes, yes. After this, after this. - Ok, ok, ok…
It's so oily.
Prime Minister, are you listening?
Eh?
This time, not only the approval rating, the stock market is also affected.
Shiroyama-san is really worried.
At this rate, the Japan economy will also collapse,
It's a very serious condition. Do you realize that condition?
- What's he talking about? - I don't understand what it means.
Taizan. If the Prime Minister is unpopular, the morale (shiki) of the party will also be affected.
Shiki (time of death)? Who's dead?
After this, ok. Of course, we are agree with you.
- Who is dead? - It's not like that…
What are you fussing about!?
If we hold an election now, our party will loose!
- And naturally, you'll also need to resign! - Of course, right!
No… wait, wait, wait, please wait, please wait.
The Prime Minister is seriously thinking about this condition.
It's on purpose, Without trying to take a risk for someone,
The Prime Minister is trying to be imperturbable (taizenjijyaku).
- Taizan… is it me? - Sho-chan, after this, ok.
Now, in order to catch the instigator of the rumours,
We ask of the public safety's mission troop to investigate this matter.
We take this step, because for our party… Because we are afraid of attacks to other people in our party.
Please, please, please…
Please be calm.
Japanese eel.
This situation, as expected…
The mastermind, there's no mistake, he is the one who's done this.
But, what has been leaked until now…
- An insider leak. - That's what I can't understand.
- Are you suspecting me? - Of course. It's natural.
Erika-kun will be protected by us.
If during our surveillance, a new story is released,
We will make that as proof of your innocence.
- Proof? - Don't think badly about this Kuramoto.
Still, The situation has turned into an unthinkable condition.
Well, even with normal circumstances, it's also unexpected,
It's also increasing into something more unthinkable.
- Certainly. - Please help us Kaibara-kun. Yes.
Well, your superiority,
Tai-san and I understand it well…
Thank you, I've had enough.
Don't say a cold thing like that Just drink it ok. Please…
To be honest, we are not using you for our convenience only. Understand.
I and Tai-san one day will launch you to national politics,
The proper timing, we are currently looking for it.
- When will it be? - Hm…
You do understand… Don't you? If this chaos is resolved,
The Constitutional Democratic Party will have a new foundation. In that new beginning…
Until that, please be patient.
Perhaps, are you doubting me?
No, there's no way I'll do that.
That, really… I really hate it. Are you angry?
Kariya-san, Someday, you'll want to be a Prime Minister,
You have that ambition, right?
Thank you for waiting.
Muchi-kun's beloved shredded and dried squid tempura.
In this restaurant, only this is delicious.
It's delicious!
This is an answering machine, You are connected to our service centre
Please leave your message
Ok, a leak from inside…
If it's my side…
What's wrong?
Previously, you always listened to others' stories with more empathy.
To be a secretary apprentice to the Prime Minister, is something that can't be usually done…
Seems like he wants to do the yellow cap campaign…
Wait…
Somehow, Sho-kun has changed. Since the day I started to help his father.
Idiot!
I want to be a Prime Minister!
Changing places…
So… today, I also need to be a Prime Minister.
What? What's this? Ah…
Stupid!
Ah!? …Aah!?
It's back!
Eeh!? Aaah! Wow, I've returned!
Ahaha… finally!
I'm back! Sho! Sho! Sho!
We have returned! Sho, we're back to our body! You!?
- Father… - Sho!
- Father… Father! - We are back to our own bodies!
What's that? Another sumo?
We are back! it's great…
Tai-san, good morning…
Ah… sumo…?
There's no mountain that I can't surpass! Ok!
Banzai! Banzai!
Tai-san…! it's great, it's great…
- Kaibara! - Sho-chan, it's great!
- Ah, Nitta-kun. - Look Pikarin-san!
Look, we're back to our own bodies! We did it, we did it!
I'm afraid that I need to kill the excitement,
But, I think this phenomenon is just temporary.
This incident is far from finished.
Eh… I will return to this face?
For me to be in this body, how much time is left?
Because it's influenced by the radio waves that we use in our investigation…
What's that?
It's impossible to predict when both of you will change places again.
Aah… how could you say that!?
Kariyan-san, I don't want to return to that body…
That condition… I hate it…! I hate it, I hate it.
Prime Minister, I have one more thing that I need to report.
- What's that? - About Kuramoto and his daughter,
Due to these rumours and information leakage incident,
We have received proof that they are innocent.
- Shoumei (lighting)? - It is proof (shoumei).
So, it means…
The only one that can become a suspect is…
Mai-chan.
Eh…?
Eh, this is a joke, right?
Mai-san… Mai-san is not a sly person that can do something like that,
Don't you understand that?
You have worked together with her, right!?
Tai-san… No, Sho-chan Please calm down. Ok?
Now is a critical time! If we try to make a metaphor,
It's like when the Titanic was about to hit the iceberg.
- Hyouzan (iceberg)…? - Please do it.
- This? - It's a transmitter.
- Put this on Minami Mai. - This, on Mai-san?
To put this? I don't want to!
To suspect Mai-san… You are the worst!
"The woman who is extraordinarily perfect has an evil side."
It is by Victor Hugo
I clearly don't know what's happening…
What I know… Mai-san is not a bad woman!
Sho…
You, what do you know about Mai-chan?
It's not Mai-chan. It's Mai-san!
If you don't have any self respect, you can't even put the character ko from confession (kokuhaku) to words, right?
Now, we are in a crisis that will determine the fate of this nation.
If Mai-san is suspicious,
We must investigate her, that's our duty.
Is it wrong?
There's no time to be miserable like this.
I, as a Prime Minister, will do what I need to do now.
Sho.
You, with your body and face, also need to do what you need to do.
You, give me the one hundred million yen that you've promised me!
If you don't do that, the bashing on the internet will increase.
I understand! I will pay you.
Because I am the Prime Minister,
For Japan, I will do what I need to do.
Now, we must return to the Prime Minister's office. Let's do a television speech.
A politician is the words that he speaks.
Mutou Taizan, with his own strength, he will show the world that he can surpass this difficult situation!
Kariyan, As soon as possible, gather reporters.
Kaibara, prepare the manuscript. You don't need to write the ruby character.
- Aya, please choose the necktie. - …Yes.
Somehow, I think he has changed to his former self…
You, with your body and face, must also do what you must do now.
Ok…
- Hello. - This is Sasaki from Agri Traditional,
- Personnel Department. - Ah, yes…
You are accepted to the final interview…
Ah, ah … yes! Thank you very much!
Father really worked hard for me…
Prime Minister In the unlikely event, during the televised speech,
If you and Sho change places, for that time,
It's better if we also give Sho-kun the manuscript…
That time is that time.
Even Sho should not waste his time.
Ah, Mai-san…
I have things that I need to tell you soon, Can I meet you?
I have an affection to Takeda shingen's battle standard,
Fuurinkazan, I always put it on my soul (Fuurinkazan : as fast as the wind, as quiet as the forest, as daring as fire, and immovable as the mountain)
Ah, put it here.
No matter how chaotic this political world might be,
I will always stand to this battle standard…
- How many guards are there? - If we include the countermeasures squad,
The guard will increase to 30 personnel. With this, during the live broadcast,
At the television department's side, we can just hope that it will not be hijacked.
Sho…
We will start soon.
Prime Minister, is it really ok to be like this?
If this broadcast backfires, I have given it enough thought.
I speak only my word.
So, if I can't communicate,
I will resign from my post as the Prime Minister.
Tai-san…
Prime Minister enters,
Is this the last time I sit on this seat?
No… I can't think like that
For Mutou Taizan, There is no mountain that he can't overcome!
Grape, orange…
- You… - Ah, I'm surprised!
Ah… Mai-san.
You…
Are you Sho-kun's father?
- Mai-san… - Please stop it!
It's me… It's me. The one who is in front of your eyes now is me…
Look…
We eat our food, let's take a look
We poop, let's take a look
Therefore, it's alright
It's alright
Can't you believe me?
Don't you remember?
When I was in my first year as a university student, Mai-san was in her fourth year,
We met on my first day of attending a seminar,
After that, at the university cafeteria, Mai-san saw that I didn't eat carrots…
Eh, you don't eat carrots?
Well, I will tell you a place where you can eat carrots?
Eh?
Here!
Quick!
How is it?
It's delicious…
Eh? Is this really a carrot?
Come here.
Since that, my life has changed…
Ch… changed.
In… in short… I… I…
I…
Please wait, I'm sorry. My throat is parched…
I want to be able to convey my feeling…
We are on air in 5 seconds. 4 3 2…
My fellow citizens.
This is the 100th Prime Minister of Japan. Mutou Taizan.
I am now slandered by unfounded rumours. My heart is really hurt.
A really good editorial,
For truth, to be falsified like this,
I, myself, am really surprised.
This time, the series of news,
For me, I think of it as a malicious attack,
So, I hope my fellow citizens will not be misled
Well…
For anyone who has created this uproar, you!
With this bashing…
I believe that you want to decrease the trust for this regime, so it can meet your interests,
You are planning to make a new regime, right?
Truth, for me to be able to still sit in this Prime Minister's seat,
It's proof that your plan has failed. It's better that you give up
But, before that, I want you to come out,
So we can have a one-on-one's talk. Won't you do that?
We can understand each other if we talk
So, my fellow citizens
I don't believe in this unfounded bashing, So I hope all of you will not give in to this bashing.
About the bashing, Everyone doubts Mai-san.
But, I…
Only I believe in Mai-san.
Therefore, that…
I…
I, this country Of these politics,
No matter how chaotic it is, I believe in the revered Takeda Shingen's battle standard…
Is it now…
I, about Mai-san…
Li… Ah…!
Uuh… about Mai-san…
About Mai-san…
- Fuurinkazan! - Eh…
Eh? What was it?
Shit!
Mai-chan, please come with me.
- Nooo! - It's not like that, it's not like that.
Mai-chan, Mai-chan, it's not like that.
It's not like that! Mai-chan, Mai-chan… Wait wait wait…
- Mai-chan, Mai-chan! - Here, here, here, here!
- Wait here! - Mai-chan, it's not like that! leave me!
Is it real…?
I can't believe it?
From where?
You put on the ruby, right…
It's ok. It's ok.
- Wind. - Look!
Forest, fire, mountain.
It's clearly a different person. What does it mean?
…I will put it on my chest.
It's real or not.
Shozon (opinion). Yes, it's shozon. It's enough. The Prime Minister's speech has ended now.
This time, there's no question and answer session. Please exit the room as soon as possible.
Let's go Prime Minister.
Prime Minister!
- Yes yes yes! - Prime Minister!
Sho-kun, please sit. Please sit!
As expected… I had a bad premonition about this.
Aah, it was just a little more.
- Ah, right. Yes yes. - Hello… ah, an answering machine.
Ah, that is Tai-san's mobile phone, I'll take it.
Ah, this is from Nitta-kun.
Minami Mai is heading to Kachidoki
By the way, Minami Mai,
At a company called Innovation Net News in Kachidoki,
With a female reporter named Murai Miyuki, Minami Mai has contacted her several times in the past.
There is no mistake that Murai is the one who wrote the bashing article.
Now, I let my subordinate chase her
I'm going to catch the operator of the brainwaves jack,
I'll raid it.
Now, we are near the end of this problem.
She is going to Kachidoki.
Ou, ok! Kachidoki, right? Ok!
Sho-chan has put the transmitter on Mai-san…
- Mai-san… - Please stop!
- Ou! - That person! Stop!
Prime Minister? What are you doing?
Next time, you will be able to be a Prime Minister again.
Sho? How about Sho?
It's alright. If it's Sho…
Kaibara-kun has covered up for him
- Ok, let's go. - Yes.
So… Prime Minister?
Prime Minister!?
Stop it there!
Zassu!
Only until that!
We finally meet Murai-san.
I need to talk to you.
I have been looking for you. At my emails, at the phone, a lot of times…
I'm sorry. I'm very busy recently…
What is it?
I really need to talk to you.
The news at Net,
Why is it?
Until now, it comes from my diary with the Prime Minister,
For the news to be able to raise the popularity of the Prime Minister. I'm really grateful.
- Free school. - Yes.
- Have you seen it? - Yes.
Prime Minister's approval rating has risen greatly, right?
Thank you very much!
No need… I just want to tell the truth.
With what you put into Innovation Net News,
I'm really happy.
With that, My heart can be at ease…
But, suddenly, the news turned negative…
At every process, an amendment was added,
In the first place, my diary with the Prime Minister, is the source, right?
The source of this negative campaign…
Murai-san, is it you?
Why do you think like that?
Because only with you I joked about changing places…
Somehow, in an unexpected moment,
I can see Sho-kun inside the Prime Minister.
Somehow, I think this father and son have changed places…
Is it really a joke?
Eh?
I want to know about it. As a journalist.
You are the Prime Minister, right? I'm Nitta's subordinate at public safety first division.
- Minami Mai is this way. - Ok.
Please don't talk about strange things.
Are you trying to trick me?
Why?
At my company,
You agreed to the policy where we will support single mothers,
Murai-san, you even said let's work hard together, right?
Was it also a lie?
- Prime Minister, you will be here. - Ok.
Murai-san, you said this, right?
As a journalist, we must see with our own eyes,
We must search with our own feet, we must see through the truth.
You, you aren't.. You aren't a journalist.
You are just a coward.
Are you alright?
I can't help it.
My child had an accident, they damaged their spinal cord…
Further, in Japan, there is no doctor that can operate it.
When I thought I was helpless,
This person helped me…
Now, he asked for my help…
Who is that person?
Please tell me!?
Please!
- That person is… - Run!
Are you alright?
The bastard that used you, He wants to eliminate you!
- That can't be!? - Now, go there. Let's go quickly!
Murai-san…!
It's dangerous!
Shit… Let's hurry! quickly!
Murai-san…
I'm sorry, for me…
This…
Let's go.
I understand. Quickly! Let's go there.
Oi.
We're the police. Come here.
Murai-san… Excuse me… She has a child.
- Please protect her. - I understand.
- Please lower your head. - It hurts…
Are you alright?
Mai-chan, take cover! It's dangerous! Oi…!
Oi, take cover…!
No…!
Sho… Sho!? Oi! Oi!
Sho… Sho!!
He just has a few hours left…
Few hours…
It's my mistake…
It's my mistake, Sho-kun…!
Is it really like that…
I'm sorry!
I am the one who involved the youngster.
I am sorry…
Prime Minister, this is Nitta.
The USB that Murai-san gave to Minami Mai,
Peter Mitcham… Ah, Peter Mitcham,
The usb contains list of bank accounts from the political and business world that have contacted Peter Mitcham's account.
Even from something that has no entity,
like a company called Troebin, we think we can connect it with several people,
People who work because they have received money from Troebin…
Do you mean a list of traitors!
It's a surprising thing, but inside it,
A lot members of the Diet from the Republican Party are listed!
- What!? Members of Diet from Republican Party? - Those people…
We have also prepared the operator of the brainwaves jack.
You can return to your previous state any time.
I understand.
Prime Minister.
If you return to your body now, It means you are dead.
Taizan…
As a parent who has a child too, I think it is harsh to say this…
But, as an incumbent Prime Minister, shouldn't you reconsider it?
Kuramoto…
Even you, wouldn't you also choose this road?
Let's go back to the house.
This is the one hundred million yen that I promised.
If it's discovered later, please dispose of all unnecessary things.
Kariyan, thank you for your help.
Tai-san…! Can't you wait a little longer.
Somehow, there must be another way…!
When my parent passed away, I didn't have any intention to see it,
So now, I also don't want to see my son's death.
Tai-san…
I understand reporter Murai's feelings.
To Mai-chan too, please tell her that I wish her to live well.
Tai-san…
Ok! Ok let's go!
Ok, look! Don't lose your heart!
Ok!
If you shout it with a big voice, your dreams will come true.
Really?
Emi-san, more than anyone…
He wants to save those zealous people,
Because he always hold dear people like that.
In our country, there are still a lot of children in need.
I heard Japan is also like that….
Somehow, we must do something.
If people need help, we must help them.
If people are crying, we must make them smile.
I think politics is… about honour and empathy!
For the citizens,
If they say no to Chief Cabinet Secretary Kariya…
I too… I will resign from my post as the Prime Minister!
If you can't use the money for people in need,
What is it really!?
People who are in trouble, weak people,
To help those people, Isn't it the purpose of politics?
I, like my father, want to be a politician!
The moon that shines on the cloudless heart, will go on to shine in the darkness in politics
Date Masamune.
Tai-san, Really, don't we have any other ways?
Don't fear.
The replacement of Prime Minister, you can find it everywhere.
But, your replacement…
Aya, Sho will live.
If my son can live, I don't have any other wish.
If my son lives. I'm happy.
For giving birth to him. Thank you.
Darling…
Nitta-kun, let's do it.
Everyone, please help Sho.
Prime Minister… It's a goodbye.
Yes.
Sho… please live.
We are rewriting the password!
It's The republican Party… Fuyujima!!
We must sneak into his office and grab irrefutable proof!
Oi! Sho!!
There is no mountain that can't be surpassed!
