The Suzuki Family This Week...
Now, let's see what the Suzuki family is up to this week.
Soy Sauce Ramen Specialty Okitsuken
Mika! Get up!
Soy Sauce Ramen Specialty Okitsuken
Wake everyone up.
If they don't hurry, they'll be late for school!
Mika!
I'm still so sleepy.
Clang, clang, clang...
Wake up, you guys!
Clang, clang, clang...
You'll be late if you don't get up!
Clang, clang, clang...
Come on!
Clang, clang, clang...
Come on!
Note: This is Seki. Come on!
Let's eat that...
Come on! Wake up, everyone!
H-Hey, Kitagawa!
Oh, Mika!
How about we dream together?!
Stop it, Kitagawa!
There they go again.
Same thing every morning.
So...
Suzuki, Mom Mika Nakamura Kitagawa So...
Suzuki, Mom Mika Nakamura Kitagawa We're a big family of twelve!
Tominaga Seki Iincho Kudo We're a big family of twelve!
Tominaga Seki Iincho Kudo
Suetake Watabe Kobayashi Nakayama
Episode 16 Part 1: The Big Family and the Elusive Pork Ramen
Time To Go To School...
Make sure you haven't forgotten anything.
Time To Go To School...
Come to think of it, Suetake and Seki aren't here.
They're still not ready?
What's with those two?
Here I am!
Come on, Seki. Hurry it up! You'll be late!
Well, I've been having trouble with my makeup lately.
Maybe I should be using face lotion and latex.
I have to start watching it now.
I think you're still okay for awhile.
If I stay up late at night...
... I break out with acne all over.
That's serious.
Rather than acne, it's probably more like boils.
So we're just waiting for Suetake.
If he's fallen back asleep, we'd better get him up...
I'll do it!
It is my duty to wake up my darling Suetake!
Suetake's lovely face at sleep...
With that image burned onto my retinas...
... I'll rouse him with my sweet whispers.
Suetake...
Oh, man! I can't take this! This is great!
Good morning, everyone!
Cheer up, Kudo.
He's drowning in his own imagination.
What's going on?
Anyway, we're all here.
We're off! We're off!
Okay! Have a good day!
Good gracious! Mornings sure are exhausting.
I guess we'd better set up the shop.
Ma'am!
Look at this!
A new menu item I came up with!
Moe Moe Pork Ramen!
Well, uh...
Anthony...
...we've stuck exclusively with soy sauce ramen all these years.
Soy Sauce Ramen ...we've stuck exclusively with soy sauce ramen all these years.
And that's not going to change.
Now, let's open up the shop.
Doesn't she like moe moe characters?
I don't think that's really the issue.
Another Day...
Okitsuken
I'm so excited that your soy sauce manga ramen...
Okitsuken ... has sold again today, Watabe.
You were so inspired that you drew manga in noodles.
I think you're truly amazing!
Listen, Nakayama.
I'm your older brother now...
...so stop calling me that.
Call me "big brother". Big Brother!
You'll always be Watabe to me, Watabe.
Right.
What?
Who is that?
A customer?
Why doesn't he go in?
Maybe he's a big fan of your manga...
...and he's a bit shy about going inside.
Welcome!
You're back!
I've brought along a customer!
Now, come right in!
Uh, no, I don't...
M-My...
M-My dear...!
What?!
What? I thought you were everyone's dad, Nakamura.
Old Man = Nakamura You and I are only a year apart.
Closed Today
It's hard to feel anything special about you after all this time.
You've been away for 16 years, after all.
If there was some kind of fatherly thing you could do for us...
Like buy me a brand name bag!
That a little too materialistic, Kobayashi
It's a bit much to suddenly come home and tell us you're our father.
No, everyone!
Mika!
I remember what happened!
He did it for the shop...
Or rather, for all of us.
Dad set out on a journey to find the elusive pork ramen...
...for his family!
Pork Ramen
You're so kind to me, Mika.
I am so touched!
It was a difficult journey.
Through remote deserts where the sand blows strong.
Through the Amazon jungle.
And then to India, the home of curry.
Hang on a minute.
Those places have nothing to do with ramen.
Well, I found the ramen in the three days...
... but I got lost on my way home.
I'm feeling some fondness here.
Me, too!
He does seem like our father!
That's because he is.
You guys!
So our dad is finally...
You've got to be kidding me!
You come wandering home at this late date!
I've had to raise these kids on my own, you know!
You have no right to pretend you're their father!
Mom...
Now she's all upset.
Do you think it's because I drew a manga?
That has nothing to do with it.
It's too bad.
I'm to blame.
I'm sorry to have upset you
Mika and the rest of you, take care of yourselves.
I want to have pork ramen!
What?!
I want pork ramen, too!
Same here. It's good for a change.
Dad, let's see how that training has paid off.
B-But...
Dad!
Mika...
You came all the way home.
Okay?
Oh, yeah?
All right! If that's what you want!
You dad will show you what he's got!
Pretty flashy outfit.
That'd be hot when he's cooking.
Right! Someone make me a bowl of soy sauce ramen!
Soy sauce ramen?
You're not making pork ramen?
There you go.
Soy Sauce Ramen
Here in my hand I have but a single handkerchief.
And I have no tricks up my sleeve.
However!
Take a good look! One, two, three...!
Pork Ramen
Thank you! Thank you!
Mom!
Dear?
This is my pork ramen.
Will you try it?
Careful of Fire
W-Well, what do you think, Dear?
Good grief...
It's taken 16 years...
...and you've found the taste!
D-Dear!
Honey!
Dear!
Isn't it wonderful?
This should bring our shop up a notch.
Imagine if people lined up for both our soy sauce and pork ramen?
Line ups?!
After we save some money, thanks to our newfound prosperity...
...we might be able to go together on an overseas vacation!
Look at her. Her face has gone all slack.
Oh! I just love it when Mika gets that goofy expression!
So, making good ramen boils down to...
... magic?
Tominaga, we said we weren't going to mention that.
All right! I'm going to make everyone a bowl!
Yay!
The Next Day...
What?!
To My Children... From Dad
Let's see...
To My Children... From Dad
"Your father has gone on a search for the elusive miso ramen."
Elusive Miso Ramen "I hope you all look forward to it."
Did he take off on us again?
No way! What about the line ups?!
What about the overseas vacation?!
Oh, let it go.
I'm sure he'll return one day with the elusive recipe for miso ramen.
I wonder how many years it'll be before he's back.
Who knows?
Aww! That's not fair!
You stupid dad!
End of Episode 16: Part 1 You stupid dad!
End of Episode 16: Part 1
Okay, guys! Put your hands together!
Morning... Okay guys! Put your hands together!
Thank you for the meal!
Bon appetit!
Hey, Mika, aren't you going to eat your egg?
I guess I'll just have to take it!
You're horrible, Suetake!
I was saving it so I could have it last!
Oh, is that right? Sorry about that.
My egg! My egg!
My egg!
Mika!
Don't throw a tantrum over some egg!
You're the eldest, so you could at least give up a little egg.
We've got three pages to go and we're finished, Nakayama!
Right, Watabe!
Once the erasing's done, get on with the inking, Nakayama!
Right, Watabe!
You're going to be late for school if you don't get on with breakfast.
Oh, you're picking out the peppers again.
You won't grow up big if you're going to be a fussy eater.
Isn't there anything that you don't like, Mika?
No! Not at all!
You're not very convincing, then.
You are pretty small, after all.
You haven't grown up big, even though you're not fussy.
Episode 16 Part 2: Big Sister Mika is Running Away?
Thanks!
Do you think you could wash your own dishes, Seki?
I still have to put on my makeup.
I don't want to be late for school.
But still...
You sure are a big help to us, Mika.
Anyway, thanks!
Come on, Mika.
You've got to hold your ground.
You're not doing him any favors by spoiling him.
I suppose you're right.
- So, here're some more dishes. - I understand all that, but...
Huh? Uh, wait... Tominaga?
Don't forget anything.
Be careful on your way to school! See you!
Oh, right, Mika...
Can you wash this towel for me?
Waft...
It stinks! What is this?!
Old Man, did you wipe milk with that?
I spilt some in my room.
I'd appreciate it, Mika.
And could you wash this ink-stained smock for me?
Yeah, and do my uniform for me!
What?! Suetake, I'll wash that!
The smell of Suetake's sweat...
Mine, too!
And mine!
Thanks!
What?! All this?!
I can't do it in one day.
I was planning on going out today.
Come on, you are our big sister!
I'm sure you can manage! Right?
How come it's always me?
I've had enough!
Don't want to be the big sister anymore! I don't want to be big sister!
- Mika is so cute when she's... - That's it! I quit! I quit!
- ... having a temper tantrum! - I quit! I quit!
She doesn't act much like a big sister.
Maybe not, but she still is our older sister.
Get a grip on yourself.
We're off!
Sulk... We're off!
Sulk...
Aww! I hate being the big sister!
And After School...
Under the wings of the lady bug...
Huh?
That's...
... Mika with Matsumoto-Sensei.
Perfect. We can go home together.
Okitsu Realty
They went inside.
This is a realty office...
Okitsu Realty Apartments Condominiums This is a realty office...
Okitsu Realty Apartments Condominiums
Mika did say that she had plans today.
Okitsu Realty Apartments Condominiums
Why would she come here?
Okitsu Realty Apartments Condominiums
Is she moving or something?
What if Mika's thinking of moving away from home?
No way.
There sure were some nice places.
I bet it won't take long to decide.
What?!
Mika's leaving home?!
Why would she?
D-Don't tell me! Maybe she's jealous of my beauty?!
Let's be serious about this.
Maybe...
... it's because we never listen to her.
Maybe we get her to do too many things.
She did say she was going to quit being our big sister.
Maybe Mika is a lot more sensei than we thought.
Sensei Maybe Mika is a lot more sensei than we thought.
Sensei I think you mean "sensai", Anthony.
Sensai (Sensitive) I think you mean "sensai", Anthony.
I don't want Mika to move out!
It can't happen!
We have to stop it by every means!
Okay! I'll start by drawing manga!
No need for that!
Anyway, we have to be on our best behavior...
...and do what we can to keep her from running away!
Yeah!
The Next Day...
It's morning, everyone.
Mika! Good morning!
Good morning!
G-Good morning...
Huh?
Good! You can do it, Kobayashi!
Kobayashi's eating green peppers?
Okay. Are you eating properly, Nakayama?
I sure am, Watabe!
Watabe, where's your manga work?
Never mind that. This is meal time, Mika!
Uh, right...
They're washing dishes?
They're hanging out the clothes.
What's going on with everyone?
You see, Mika...
We've all become good boys and girls.
Soy Sauce Ramen
Everyone's acting weird around here.
How come they're being so good all of a sudden?
Well, I wouldn't complain if their behavior's improved.
It makes your life easier.
You think so?
We're doing really well, you guys.
If we keep up this good behavior, she won't want to move.
I hope this plan works.
Hello, Suzuki residence.
Oh, Matsumoto-Sensei!
The apartment?
It's hard to say which one is better.
Yeah, no kidding...
And...
It's snack time, guys!
One for each of you!
Yay! Cream puffs!
I don't want mine.
You can have it, Mika.
Huh? Why?
I'm full.
I don't want mine either.
You can have mine as well, Mika.
Have mine, too.
Hey, you guys... What's going on?
You're acting strange. Did something happen?
Nothing, really.
We just want you to have the cream puffs.
But you guys all love cream puffs!
Isn't that right?
That's true, but...
Then, tell me what's up!
I may not look like a big sister, but I still am!
It's because...
Because...
Don't, Kobayashi.
We're trying our best to be good kids!
Wh-What's gotten into you?!
Mika! Don't leave us!
Don't go! Please stay with us!
Ahh...! Don't go! Please stay with us!
Ahh...! Hey, Kitagawa!
Mika!
Such beautiful family love!
Mika, here's Miss Matsumoto.
Your family sure is tight.
What're you all doing?
I don't really know myself...
Hi, Matsumoto-Sensei!
What's up?
Oh, right.
Mika, I think I've decided to take that first place.
Oh, so you've decided!
I think that's a good choice!
Mika...?
You mean you were at the realtor's yesterday because...
She came along to help me look for an apartment.
Th-That means...
This was all a misunderstanding.
So you're not running away?
I'll draw a manga to celebrate the news!
No need for that!
So that's what it was about.
Just think about it.
Live Alone Just think about it.
Live Alone You think Mika could manage living on her own?
That's true!
Thank goodness, Mika.
Ahh...!
Loosen up, Kitagawa! You're strangling me!
The Next Day...
Clang, clang, clang...
Wake up, you guys!
Clang, clang, clang...
You'll be late if you don't get up!
Clang, clang, clang...
Come on!
Clang, clang, clang...
Come on!
Note: This is Seki Come on!
Note: This is Seki
Cream puffs...
Come on!
You've got to get up and have breakfast!
Why won't anybody listen to me?!
You're supposed to listen to your big sister!
