Shall we?
The daphne's berries have turned red
I try putting in my considerable mood
I didn't come here because I wanted to be born
So, I'm thinking, I'll probably die, even if I don't want to
Pretending to have reached enlightenment
I try living like that, nothing wrong with that
Strict lines are always drawn in the world of man
So, if I go head on, I get hurt all over
Guess I'll just go as I lick-lick my wounds
I'll turn the goblin into vinegar and eat him
Patch, patch with something red
Like a maraschino cherry
And frozen cranberry
Chut, chut, with someone hot
Like an equalitarian
And yam-yngdourian
Fad, fad with something cool
Like a hidden luminary
And will-o-the-wisp too
Buying time with makeshift means
Distract yourself while you wait for the flowers
Sasshi and Arumi are a boy and a girl, born and raised in a very ordinary Osaka,
in the very ordinary Abenobashi.
Currently, they have been flung to an Abenobashi in another world
and have found themselves with no way of getting back.
On top of that, wherever they go, they end up having to defeat a goblin.
The reason being, they'll get to go back to their very ordinary world
if they use the goblin's magical powers, but...
Well, when it comes right down to it,
these are goblins who lose to very ordinary grade school kids.
So, their magical powers aren't very reliable either.
And ultimately, they end up jumping to another strange world...
Episode 5 Extinction! Abenobashi * Ancient Dinosaur Shopping Arcade
Huh, so it's a dinosaur kingdom this time?
It's wrong.
What's wrong?! That and that and that are all dinosaurs!
It's wrong.
It ain't wrong!
We keep gettin' sent to worlds that seem like places you'd like.
It's gettin' on my nerves!
It's funny.
It ain't funny!
Knock it off already, or I'm gonna smack you!
Don't say that after you've smacked me.
It's your fault.
That's not it. The dinosaurs here are funny.
What?
Look, there's a Stegosaurus from the Jurassic Period together
with a Tyrannosaurus from the Cretaceous Period.
It's just not right, see?
Don't look at me.
No normal grade school kid would know details like that.
Oh, I know what that is!
Let's see, it's a Brontosaurus!
You're wrong there though.
Whoa, wait, wait!
It's true, there was a time when it was called a Brontosaurus!
You're right, you're right! Don't smack me! Don't smack me!
I am right!
It's true, there was a time when it was called the Brontosaurus,
but back then, the fossils of a couple Sauropods had been mixed up
while reconstructing it and after a thorough investigation,
they renamed it an Apatosaurus.
Approximately 20 meters in length,
livin' in the Americas towards the end of the Jurassic Period.
Wow, you know a lot.
If it's about creatures from the Jurassic to the Crustaceous Period, ask me anything!
Hey, Professor Sasshi!
I couldn't be a professor at this age.
Call me "doctor"!
Well, this is where you're awfully knowledgeable
about the specific topics that you like, but you're totally no good at schoolwork,
and you've got dinosaur models and figurines of girls
all lined up around your room.
Gradually, you'll turn into an obnoxious geek, who leads a gloomy, brooding life.
Oh, how disgustin'.
Hey, what's this?
So no one ever takes me seriously no matter what I say. Okay, there, there. Good boy, good boy.
So no one ever takes me seriously no matter what I say.
Hey, what's this guy?
Fine then! I'm a geek after all, right?! Hey, what's this guy?
Fine then! I'm a geek after all, right?!
What is this?!
But, but, this girl sure is cute. What is this?!
But, but, this girl sure is cute.
Little Arumi here's askin' ya what the heck this is, ya know?!
A triceratops baby, I think?
I guess that makes it Tricera-Spot.
Here, here.
Tri-Spot, Tri-Spot, hit the spot.
Here.
Oh, how bold of you.
No!
That'll do it.
Get dressed!
What a thing to have ended up showin' you...
What's it matter? It's not like it's anythin' great.
No, now you and I aren't in a normal relationship anymore.
Then what're we? Mortal enemies or somethin'?
No, no, no, how should I say this?
Oh, yeah.
Speakin' of small, I wonder where this little guy's parents are?
What do you mean, "speakin' of small"?!
What does "small" remind you of?!
Did someone say "small" somewhere?!
What's small?!
Tell me, what's it supposed to mean?!
I wonder if he's lost?
C'mon, what's small? All right, I'll find your parents for you.
Tell me! I won't get mad! All right, I'll find your parents for you.
Tell me! I won't get mad! After all, it must be some fate that brought us together here.
"Do somethin' good, each day!"
"The world is one big family! All of mankind are brothers!"
He ain't mankind, he's a dinosaur.
What're ya sayin'?
All of mankind are brothers.
You should think of dinosaurs as distant relatives at the least.
Oh, I see!
Got it?
So, what's small?
Haven't we talked 'bout your wee-wee enough already?
Man, that was scary.
But is this place also
Abenobashi, I wonder?
What's goin' on here?
Sis...
You're lookin' as firm as ever...
I am not "Sis"!
You shall address me as "Your Majesty"!
Your Majesty!
You there, woman!
What did she say about fish?
She said not to sell fish.
We're not sellin' any fish!
I said, you there, woman!
You mean me?
Hand that red dinosaur you are holding over to me.
Oh, you're his mother?
Come to think of it, his eyes look a little like yours...
Yes, that's right! And he has his father's mouth...
Wrong!
That thing is a truly malignant being!
That is what my fortune telling told me!
Fortune tellin'?
Oh, my sis loves fortune tellin'.
She says she gets restless unless she checks with everythin'
from her blood type, to the zodiac, tarot cards, numerology,
and even animal fortune tellin' everyday.
She ends up spendin' the entire day tellin' fortunes,
mornin' to night, and before she goes to sleep,
she plays the Ouija board, then sleeps at the family altar.
What the heck? It doesn't make any sense.
Quiet!
Look here!
Dad and Grandpa?!
Here you go.
Call me "Your Majesty"!
Oh, Your Majesty!
Whoa, your family's pretty messed up.
Your Majesty! Please, please, reward us more! I don't know them at all.
Your Majesty! Please, please, reward us more! I've never even seen these people.
Other, if they turn out to be "M", they're strangers.
Here you are, Your Majesty.
Mom too?!
Behold the results of the welt fortune telling!
So, that was fortune tellin' too?
These welts clearly indicate the downfall of this land!
This too! And the way this spot is swollen as well!
I can't see it. I can't see anythin'.
This land will be burned by a raging fire!
And then...
That was when a dinosaur of red coloring appeared!
If there is any fool who can say that this is not a malignant sign,
come forward and name yourself!
Here.
Shut up, shut up, shut up!
Oh, Your Majesty!
You just can't fight the blood in ya.
Well, well, now, that's not important.
Like hell we can believe that nonsense!
That's right! We're returnin' him to his mother!
What is this?!
Misfortune will be brought down on the people of this shopping arcade
all because of that one dinosaur!
No, it won't. No, it won't.
What's the point in concludin' somethin' like that from welts?
Moron.
I ain't a moron!
Moronic conversation.
There, there, I'll make sure you get to where your mother is.
How dare you protect the dinosaur that will bring about our ruin?!
Andalusia.
Say, what happens if we hand him over?
Death.
That's so heartless! Grandpa, do somethin' about it!
We cannot go against Her Majesty.
Mom!
The results of Her Majesty's fortune telling are infallible.
Just live our lives, believin' it and we'll have nothin' to worry about.
You're all bein' weird!
I'm never lettin' you have him, no matter what happens!
That's right! I'm against dictatorships!
Whoa!
Man, that scared me!
Behold! It appears that he was quite frightened!
It is proof that these people are also beings that bring ill omen!
Anyone would've been scared!
Capture them!
Wait, time out!
Sasshi!
Aaaah Aaaah
Gulp!
Grab on!
Now, here we go!
After them! Go after them!
Thank you so very much.
You saved us there, Miss Mune-mune.
No, I am not Mune-mune.
I am Monster Princess Mune-mune.
She just stuck "Monster Princess" onto her name.
Another queen?
Monster Princess!
A princess is younger than a queen!
Okay.
I am a traveler in search of a certain gentleman!
A certain gentleman?
He is somewhere here in this world,
but I am having a hard time finding him.
Is that the mister she's talkin' about after all?
The one that was peepin' at the bath...
Stop right there!
Whoa, they came after us!
Pesky bastards.
Leave it to me!
Yes! It's the first time it's ever come back!
What's the point in gettin' it to hit me?!
But I'm so happy because it came back! Yes.
Take that!
No, that's not what I'm sayin'.
It's pointless unless you hit them with it, right?
Focus on what you're doin' and...
Yay! It came back again!
Sheesh. What the heck are ya throwin' that thing for?
Come on, this is no time for these stupid antics!
They've almost caught up to us!
Stop!
Over there!
It'll be okay, Tri-Spot.
It'll work out somehow! I'm sure it will! It probably will!
That's right!
Bein' human, havin' your health and a positive outlook is what's most important.
We'll work somethin' out, probably.
There's nothin' we can do about this! It's over!
This is hopeless.
We'll fly!
Everyone together now!
You can fly?
Save me!
What?!
Hey, now!
Can't you fly?!
I thought maybe it'd work out if the three of us joined forces...
Like hell it would.
Oh, a grand spectacle of danger after danger!
Is it me or are ya like, enjoyin' this?!
What's gonna happen now?!
Well, let's see. Up ahead will be an even greater danger...
It's a waterfall!
Don't worry. I might not look it, but I'm good at swimmin'.
I've even been called the Whitebait of Yodo River.
Never heard of it.
I was also called the Dolphin of Osaka Bay.
Never heard of it!
Then how about the Sea Otter of Dotonbori?
The Whirligig Beetle of Ayame-ga Ike?
The Pond Skater in a Bucket?
The Shampoo in a Bath?
Here!
Sasshi!
I thought I was gonna die.
Sasshi, you alive?
You'd normally die from that.
As I thought, there are signs of a meteor strike.
The creatures in the strata change from this point on.
Mister!
Mister, there was someone lookin' for ya.
You two again?!
Just what kind of fate is linking you to me?!
That's what we'd like to know.
Mister, are you a sorcerer?
Sorcery?
My practice is not something so questionable!
But the rather questionable talisman you gave us
back in the Hong Kong Shoppin' Arcade came in handy.
Child, that was state-of-the-art science!
A scientific talisman?
That's plenty questionable.
At any rate, since we are fatefully linked, I would know your names.
My name is Eutus.
What a weird name! You think he's a foreigner?
What kinda face is that for a name like Eutus?
His face looks perfectly Japanese, no matter how ya look at it.
I've got it! It's his stage name!
Oh, I see! Like Charlie Hama or Mr. Bald!
Like Eutus Miyagawa.
Doesn't sound very popular!
So, what are your names?
I'm Arumi!
I'm Sasshi!
I am Haruo Minami!
You're good!
So, it's a stage name, right?
I won't do it again! Not ever!
What is that dragon?
A triceratops. Ornithischia.
He got separated from his mother and he's lost...
A red dragon from the dragon-snake direction is drenched...
At first sight, the yang is washed away by the yin,
but the true nature of the still surviving dragon is yang!
All right, I understand it completely now!
What do you mean, understand?
I understand it scientifically.
Sounds like a rather questionable understandin'.
Say, so can't you find where his mother is with that understandin' science?
No, I must make preparations.
I don't get it.
Could his mother be...
We did it! That's his mother!
Thank goodn...
Go on.
Isn't this great?
Right, Sasshi?
Oh my.
Oh, here comes your family again, Sasshi.
Sis, are ya still out to kill that little guy?
It is too late!
What?
Behold!
A meteor?
That is right. Do you know where that is headed?!
That dinosaur baby! That red color is the marker!
It is all over! We are all done for!
That's absurd.
It is all over! We are all done for! Why the heck would a meteor be aimin' to fall on Tri-Spot?
A meteorite's a rock, right?! A rock?!
No, wait.
They say the reason dinosaurs went extinct was because a giant meteor fell to Earth.
So, what about it?
In other words,
if that's the rock with the will to destroy this world...
What?! Then that thing is the goblin of this world?!
Oh, how was it?!
Sasshi, I'm leavin' defeatin' the goblin to you! This was like this, and how was this part?!
Sasshi, I'm leavin' defeatin' the goblin to you! Was it like this?!
Sasshi!
Thus shall it be!
Meteorite, stop fallin'!
Meteorite, stop! Help me, oh please!
Meteorite, quit it! Thus shall it be!
Someone please stop it! Thus shall it be!
Just leave it to me!
Oh, you are...
Doing such an unscientific thing will solve nothing.
Yes, sir!
Finally, we'll need some kind of offering.
An offerin'?
Sasshi, what is the most valuable thing that you have on you?
What? Let me think...
Ah, a cell phone.
It has value, for it is foreign.
With the dedication of these simulacra, Arumi and Sasshi,
I ask that this calamity be done away with!
With the dedication of this cell phone,
I ask that the imperial throne continue on.
Thus shall it be!
Oh, that hurt! We would've normally died from that.
He's gone! Where did he go?! Oh, where are you?! Oh, that hurt! We would've normally died from that.
He's gone! Where did he go?! Oh, where are you?! Sasshi, you alive?
He's gone! Where did he go?! Oh, where are you?!
Oh, what an awful time I had namakyo.
Kyo!
Nkyo, namakyo, nkyo, namakyo.
Don't we have to make an offerin' after all? Some kinda offerin'?
Yeah, yeah. We never have an offerin' and that's what's bad.
Ta-da!
It has value, for it is foreign.
Oh, that will do namakyo. Go, namakyo.
All things extant in this world,
gods of Heaven, gods of Earth, let them be as they should be.
All things extant in this world,
gods of Heaven, gods of Earth, let them be as they should be.
Thus shall it be.
So long, Tri-Spot.
Right, it has the proper smell of a town.
And we made an offerin' this time...
It's wrong again.
It's the pits.
To be continued
If there were a breeze in your heart
And if that breeze were a spring breeze
I would want to be the only one to feel that breeze forever
Forever
If there were a sky in your heart
And if that sky were a blue sky
I would want to be the only one to soar up into it endlessly
Endlessly
Because all you ever do is laugh
And all you do is just embrace me
Now, next time on Magical...
But you sure know a lot about dinosaurs and stuff! Now, next time on Magical...
But you sure know a lot about dinosaurs and stuff!
I'm a little impressed.
What? Really? Impressed? Well, what d'ya think?
It's not really somethin' worth braggin' about though.
But d'you get a little renewed respect for me?
Well, I just realized you can't totally dismiss geek knowledge.
No, no, Arumi, you always talk down 'bout geeks,
but right now, the world's pretty much revolvin' around geeks.
Is that for real?
For real. The geeks are doin' everthin'!
So, you all gotta respect geeks more.
And yeah, I don't really like us bein' called geeks either and...
Next Time In The Night Fog! Abenobashi * Hard Boiled Shopping Arcade And yeah, I don't really like us bein' called geeks either and...
Next Time In The Night Fog! Abenobashi * Hard Boiled Shopping Arcade Hey, what about the preview?
Next Time In The Night Fog! Abenobashi * Hard Boiled Shopping Arcade Oh, right, not geeks, the preview.
