I am the Edo Princess Kaguya, and I come from the Moon.
It's finally complete, Princess!
So if I ride in this, then I can go home to the Moon?
Yeah, that's right!
We're in trouble!
The city police found out about us, big brother!
Then there's no time to lose!
Let's launch the rocket right away!
You are too late!
Gotta make sure the whole world gets to see my son on stage...!
Our movies are being stolen.
Our emotional moments are being stolen.
I won't watch them.
I won't buy them.
Let's start out with this.
We take all the time we've wasted so far and call it "X"...
...then the hours worked index for those involved in the rocket's construction and call it "Y"...
...and then divide by the total budget and so on and so forth...
...and we get--
We're in trouble...!
At this rate...
...sending Sora back to the moon will be impossible!
Whaddja say?!
Come take me far away

Labor shortage...?!
That's right.
We only found out ourselves after this guy named Genzo did the calculations for us.
It turns out it's gonna take a huge amount of time to finish the rocket!
But " huge" don't even come close to it!
Apparently, it's gonna take--
And this is a whopper!
Eighty-two years and three months!
And what's that in days...?
Thirty thousand and twenty-three days!
And converting to hours...?
Seven hundred and twenty thousand and five hundred and twenty-two hours!
And what's our goal...?
One thousand three hundred twenty-seven stores!
It ain't even funny, goddamn it all...!
If it ends up taking us that much time...
Well, Sora ol' gal. Reckon the rocket's all done now.
What was that?
I'm sayin' you can finally go back home to the moon now.
Eh? Back home at noon?
What happened, ol' gal...?!
And it'd be a damn shame, dyin' and just leavin' things like that, you know.
So here's our plan! In order to get lots more workers on the job...
...we were wondering if you'd maybe lend us some money.
"Sora" ...we were wondering if you'd maybe lend us some money.
"Sora" We're fully underwear of how rude it is to ask this of you...
"Sora" ...and we'd really love to say we don't need underwire support...
"Sora" but without support we're in a helluva tight spot!
And a tight spot brings opportunity!
We don't need all your cash for this opportunity.
We're just askin' for enough to hire on more workers. So couldya please...
...please just lend us that much?
That's all we ask!
I get it.
What?! So you're gonna lend us the money?!
No, that's not what I meant.
I just get it that you two've gotten really close.
Eh?
You two finish each other's sentences like some kinda husband and wife comedy duo.
Nah, maybe " comedy duo" was goin' too far.
The way you guys are, it's like you're actually married.
H-H-Hey...!
C-C-Cut it out with the j-j-jokes already...
Ah, so this is where you guys've all been, I see!
O-Nui...?
It's about the labor shortage situation. The old man says he has an idea!
Here we finally get to appear in our Men in Black suits again after all this time...
How the hell'd we ever get stuck doing this...?
Getting sent out to collect stray cats, of all things.
Being a Man in Black sure isn't what it used to be.
We couldn't very well say no. Not when that one insists on it.
Hey, Tenho! C'mere, c'mere!
Shhh! Your voice is too loud...!
Wow, you guys managed to gather up quite a few, huh?
You've done a fine job, everyone.
All right then, time to get to work!
Meow meow!
Meow. Meow. Meow. Meow. Meow. Meow. Meow. Meow...
I just can't seem to figure it out.
Where'd the old man manage to get this many people to come over and help out...?
Well, that's a secret.
Don't waste your time sweatin' all the little details.
The labor shortage got resolved, end of story.
Damn straight it did, huh?
Yeah.
I'm glad it worked out.
Shunpei...?
Meow! Meow meow meow meow meow meow meow meow!
Meow meow!
I just remembered...!
I remember you guys told me you both got turned into cats one time, right?
Huh? We got turned into cats...?
That was in Episode 10, wasn't it?
That's it-- all those girls over there have gotta be cats!
Gulp!
They are, aren't they?
Eh? Emergency dispatch?
10-4! Roger!
"Galant" 10-4! Roger!
"Galant"
Whoa! Wait!
What's an " emergency dispatch"...?
Maybe... the " em--" part's like " m" for " male" or somethin'.
I just can't figure it out.
What can't you figure out?
Animals getting turned into people. I just don't buy it.
So you're saying animals aren't supposed to... turn into people?
And "--ergency" is... oh! Urges! Like the urges people get, Seikichi.
Urges?
In other words, an " emergency dispatch" is a dispatch of male urges!
You suddenly know what a " dispatch" is...?!
Basically from the testic--
Whoa! Don't say it!
--All right, " gonads"...? --I just don't get it.
--" Bollocks"...? --I don't get it.
--" Love nuts"...? --Hold on, Shunpei!
"Family jewels"...?
"Market"
Mister Old Man, are you here...?
"Let's all eat eel on the Midsummer Day of the Ox" Mister Old Man, are you here...?
"Let's all eat eel on the Midsummer Day of the Ox" Mister Old Man...?
Oh no, I spilled it!
Almost the whole thing spilled out.
But I wonder... what is it?
It doesn't smell at all, so I guess it's not a deodorizer for the shoe cabinet.
Mister Old Man...? You're really not home, right?
Okay... I'll just be on my way, then.
I still can't figure it out, just like always.
Hi, you're back!
"San" Hi, you're back!
"San" If you're wonderin' 'bout your lunch, Seikichi took it with him just a bit ago.
"San" All right, thanks.
Hey, gimme some tea over here.
"Love"
Cute.
"Love"
Where the hell've you been...?
Just here and there.
Here ya go-- I got your lunch.
"Love" Here ya go-- I got your lunch.
O-Ise...?!
Oo, the thought of bein' called " big brother" every day by a cute little guy like you...!
It's like, such a total dream!
Huh? " Big brother"...?
Oo, cute!
"Love"
The cutest thing about Shoonie-poo's his glasses!
Huh?
Here, try puttin' these on!
Akira!
What...?
Here! Here! Here!
So cute! Your lost little glasses boy look is so dang cute!
Whoa!
Shunpei, put these on.
"Love" Shunpei, put these on.
"Love" A-Are those...?
"Love" They're not! These aren't shorts-- they're boxers!
They're just really really short boxers!
So they're not weird from a historical standpoint!
Go on, put 'em on! Put 'em on now!
Hurry up... and put on these shorts...!
Little brother...!
Glasses...!
Boxer shorts...!
S-Somebody help me!
A-woooooooooo!
I am the lovely little watchdog O-Nui, and I won't stand for any more hanky-panky!
Are you all right?!
I'm ... I'm done for...
Shunpei!
Sniff sniff.
What's that smell?! It smells awful!
Sniff sniff... sniff sniff... sniff sniff...
Sniff sniff.
Hm?
"Market" Hm?
Sniff sniff... sniff sniff... sniff sniff...
Sniff sniff!
Hm?
This is it!
"Secret Potion"
Sniff sniff... this is the same bad smell!
Mister Old Man! Are you here...?
Mister Old Man!
If you're looking for the old man, he's not here.
Sora? What're you doing here...?
I have to be for the story to work out.
--Shunpei! --Shunpei!
"Mimatsuya Head Office"
--Shunpei! --Shunpei!
"Mimatsuya Head Office"
"Love"
Shunpei!
"Love" Shun--!
Shunpei! Shunpei! Shunpei...!
Man, Shunpei sure looks like a wreck, don't he?
He's been in this state since all those girls started goin' after him.
And how come he's suddenly all popular with the girls anyway...?
What the hell's goin' on?
--Shunpei.... --Shunpei...!
--Shunpei... --Shunpei!
I think I know what it is.
It must be a love potion that makes every girl in the world fall for him!
"...Midsummer Day of the Ox" It must be a love potion that makes every girl in the world fall for him!
"...Midsummer Day of the Ox" So that's how Shunpei wound up being such a sexy guy to all those women...?
It's that Old Man's fault. He makes all these weird potions and then leaves them lying out!
But then how come it hasn't affected you and me?
I think... it must be because you're not from here.
The potion probably doesn't work on you.
But what about you?
Huh?
Th...That's , um...
Oh, that's right. I forgot you were a dog.
You knew the whole time?!
Sure.
Oh, so you knew...?
Never mind that now. We've gotta find the old man quick or things're gonna get bad.
Right.
You love him, don't you? You love Shunpei.
Uh?!
But... if Shunpei knew the truth about me, the situation with him'd get weirder and weirder.
And even if it didn't , there's still the thing with you, Sora...
What're you babbling on about?
I don't know what happened, but I do know you're the only one who can find the old man.
But Sora...
Now's not the time to worry. Our first priority is saving Shunpei!
Right!
Shunpei! Shunpei! Shunpei! Shunpei!
Someone save me!
Shunpei! Shunpei! Shunpei!
Hold on just a little longer, Shunpei.
Shunpei... Shunpei... Shunpei...!
Shunpei... Shunpei...!
Sniff sniff sniff.
Sniff sniff... sniff sniff...
Shunpei! Shunpei!
I guess I haven't really walked around as a dog for a while.
Sniff sniff sniff.
More rain. Won't it ever let up...?
Darrah!
Oh, IC! It's you, IC!
IC! I wanted to see you so bad, IC!
Woof woof! Woof!
Whoa... ow! Chow Chow!
Chow! Chow!
IC!
Who the heck is " IC"...?!
"...Gate"
"Middle Street Tea"
Is this... Yoshiwara?
"World"
Hey, honey! Well ain't you just a sexy loverboy!
I think I'm in love with this hunk of manhood myself!
Oh, is that right, girls?
That man over there smells the same as Shunpei did.
But there's something else...
Sniff sniff.
I think it's ...
--...the smell of old age?! --Naje naje? Naje naje?
Najeeeeeeeh?!
I wasn't talking about aged curry!
O-Nui?
Is that you, O-Nui?
Eh?
Mister Old Man?!
Anyway, after I took some rejuvenatin' potion, I suddenly got to feelin' a little frisky and all...
so I just, you know, went out for a little fun.
So is that why you made the love potion too?
That's right.
But this stuff's so strong all you need's a single drop.
If he drank the whole thing, that's a big can of worms.
But I'll hurry and whip up a little something to cancel the effects of the love potion.
So just sit tight a little longer, okay?
Are you awake now?
Sora...
Shunpei! How's Shunpei?!
He's a stud muffin.
Shunpei...! Shunpei...! Shunpei...!
Look, he's up there.
Shunpei!
Shunpei...! Shunpei...! Shunpei...!
Wait right there, big brother... I'll open the gate and be there right away.
Then you and me can live in a peaceful land with no women whatsoever.
Little brother...!
Glasses...!
Boxer shorts...!
One damn minute!
You ain't takin' my Pei-Pei from me!
"Love" You ain't takin' my Pei-Pei from me!
Pei-Pei! Pei-Pei! Pei-Pei!
He ain't " Pei-Pei" ! He's Shoonie-poo!
I ain't gonna let you take away my Shoonie-poo!
Let's do this, girls.
Ready!
Now just get Shunpei to drink this, and I think all the fuss'll probably die down.
Thank you so much!
Hold on, Shunpei! I'm on my way!
Shunpei...!
If this keeps up, the tower's gonna...!
It'll be fine. O-Nui's gonna be back any minute now.
Wh-What's this...?!
What is it?!
Oh, I know-- it's gotta be the love potion.
It's finally starting... to work on me too...
"Convolve"
Hey, ain't that the wrong spelling?
There's been a great deal of evolution in military model painting techniques these days!
In the old days, owing to the influence of Francois Verlinden,
the field was dominated by dry brushing techniques.
But in recent years, thanks to Mig Jimenez's ideas on filter painting and chipping,
it's become feasible to achieve levels of realism that were simply impossible before.
Even Zimmerit coatings have been made easy through the use of epoxy putty and rollers...
...and plenty of photoetched parts are now available...
...and we're even starting to see the widespread use of 1 /48 scale!
--I dunno what the hell she's talkin' about but it's damn convoluted. --And another thing, the key to the future will be whether or not
--Woof! Woof! Woof! Woof! --the 1 /24 scale that guys like Masahiro Doi keep talking about will ever materialize.
--Wait a sec... that dog looks really familiar... --Now if an 88 or something with super-realistic detail
--Whoa... hold up! --were released in 1 /24 along with a figure, that'd really be--
Shunpei...! Pei-Pei...! Shoonie-poo...!
Pei-Pei...!
C'mere, girl!
C'mon, hurry up!
Waoooooon!
--Shunpei...! --Waoooooon!
Shunpei...!
Woof woof! Woof woof woof!
Woof woof! Woof woof!
Shunpei!
I know that bark...!
Shunpei!
Shunpei?
Please wake up! Shunpei!
Shunpei... Shunpei... Shunpei... Shunpei... Shunpei...
Shunpei...!
"Love" Shunpei...!
Forgive me.
O-Nui...?
"Roku" " San"
--Dumbstruck... --Hey, Shunpei!
Listen... didn'tcha used to have a dog when you were a kid?
Huh?
Last night, I saw that dog!
I'm guessin' maybe it came to help you out, don'tcha think?
Yeah...
Thank you.
Huh?
That ain't what I meant! I'm talkin' 'bout that dog you used to have.
Somehow, I think I figured it out.
Right!
Hey, d'ya even hear what I just said?!
Then again, I wonder if I actually saw it or not.
The tail was all curled up, and the eyes were all bright and blinkin' and stuff.
I'm sure it was that dog, all right.
Man, I just can't figure it out...
