[00:00] NAGASAWA
    Everyone, Chibi Maruko-chan
    is about to start.
[00:03] NAGASAWA
    Care to take a look?
[00:11] MARUKO
    Let's go, everyone!
[01:27] NARRATOR/I
    Let it begin!
SIGN    At Home on a Hot Summer Day
[01:29] [SONG] SIGN (black and white)
    Sweets Shoppe Mitsuya
SIGN    Ice cream
[01:30] MARUKO
    "At Home on a Hot Summer Day."
SIGN    Sakura
[01:48] MARUKO
    Uh, it's so hot.
[01:50] MARUKO
    I'm sweating even when I sit still.
[01:53] MARUKO
    Ugh, this is ridiculous.
[01:55] MARUKO
    Why is our house so hot?
[01:58] NARRATOR/I
    That's because you don't have A/C.
[02:02] MARUKO
    I don't feel like doing anything.
[02:06] MARUKO
    I'll just have to take a nap like
    this and wait for summer to end.
[02:11] SUMIRE
    Maruko? Maruko!
[02:15] SUMIRE
    Tama-chan's on the phone.
[02:17] SUMIRE
    Come pick it up.
[02:19] MARUKO
    I'm too hot to play.
[02:22] MARUKO
    Tell her I'm not at home.
[02:25] MARUKO
    If only we had A/C, I'd play with a lot,
[02:29] MARUKO
    help around the house, and study happily...
[02:33] MARUKO
    So nice and cool!
[02:36] MARUKO
    Chores, studying, bring it on!
[02:41] MARUKO
    Too bad for you.
[02:42] MARUKO
    Because you were reluctant to pay
    for A/C, your child's unmotivated.
[02:47] SUMIRE
    You fool!
[02:48] SUMIRE
    Stop being so greedy!
[02:50] SUMIRE
    Back in the old days, they didn't
    have A/Cs, but they persevered!
[02:54] MARUKO
    Again with "back in the old days"?
[02:57] MARUKO
    Please stop. You're only making me miserable.
[03:00] MARUKO
    Tell it like it is and say we
    don't have money for A/C.
[03:06] SUMIRE
    We don't have money for A/C.
[03:10] MARUKO
    You actually said it.
[03:13] MARUKO
    Hey, let's buy an A/C.
[03:16] MARUKO
    I'll pay you back once I'm successful.
[03:18] SUMIRE
    You don't even study, so
    how can you be successful?
[03:22] MARUKO
    I'll work hard to pay you back,
    even if I'm not successful!
[03:26] SUMIRE
    How will you make money?
[03:28] MARUKO
    Even if I have to become a hippie,
    I'll make wire crafts to pay you back.
SIGN    I can customize your name
[03:36] SUMIRE
    This is dumb.
[03:39] SUMIRE
    I have to go and let Tama-chan know.
[03:48] MARUKO
    It's too hot to do anything, but
    doing nothing is boring too.
[03:54] MARUKO
    I don't wanna do anything,
    but I don't wanna be bored.
[03:58] MARUKO
    I guess I'm a living corpse.
[04:03] MARUKO
    My gosh, this is so pathetic.
[04:08] MARUKO
    Oh, I know!
[04:10] MARUKO
    Maybe I'll go visit Hanawa-kun.
[04:12] MARUKO
    That house must be cool.
[04:14] MARUKO
    I'm going to give him a call now.
[04:17] MARUKO
    His house is paradise in the neighborhood.
[04:24] MARUKOK
    Oh, hello?
[04:26] MARUKOK
    Is this Hide the Butler?
[04:28] MARUKOK
    Hello, this is Sakura.
[04:30] MARUKOK
    Is Hanawa-kun home?
[04:32] HIDE
    Unfortunately, the young master
    is at the beach in town.
[04:37] HIDE
    He should be back by evening.
[04:41] HIDE
    I'm terribly sorry.
[04:43] MARUKO
    Really, a beach in town?
[04:45] MARUKO
    That's a rather frugal choice for him.
[04:47] MARUKO
    Not some beach overseas, huh?
[04:49] MARUKO
    Not that it matters.
[04:51] MARUKO
    By the way, your voice sounds strange.
[04:55] MARUKO
    Maybe you're tired?
[04:57] HIDE
    Yes. The thing is, I'm feeling
    a bit of heat fatigue.
[05:02] HIDE
    I'm not too young anymore.
[05:07] NARRATOR/I
    Hide the Butler is polite
    to Maruko even if he's busy.
[05:12] NARRATOR/I
    He'll be 68 this year.
[05:16] MARUKO
    Oh man, the beach, huh? Must be nice.
[05:20] MARUKO
    I hope something good happens to me too.
[05:24] MARUKO
    Grandpa, anything good happening?
[05:27] TOMOZOU
    Huh? Anything good?
[05:29] TOMOZOU
    Hm, let me think...
[05:32] TOMOZOU
    What kind of thing would be a good thing?
[05:36] MARUKO
    Like someone gave you ten million yen.
[05:40] TOMOZOU
    What?!
[05:41] TOMOZOU
    That is a good thing!
[05:42] TOMOZOU
    And what do you plan to
    do with ten million yen?
[05:46] MARUKO
    Take that money, and you
    and I will go on a trip.
[05:51] MARUKO
    The destination is Las Vegas.
[05:54] TOMOZOU
    Las Vegas?!
[06:06] TOMOZOU
    Do you mean to tell me that you plan to
    gamble in Las Vegas to hit the jackpot?!
[06:12] MARUKO
    That's right.
[06:13] MARUKO
    Women should have courage,
    men should have charm.
[06:17] TOMOZOU/I
    I'm in awe... I'm in awe, Maruko!
[06:20] TOMOZOU/I
    What a gambler for a child!
[06:24] MARUKO
    You and I will win one hundred million
    yen with a roulette in Las Vegas!
[06:30] TOMOZOU
    We'll say goodbye to a poor life, then.
[06:35] MARUKO
    Listen, if we won one hundred million yen,
     would we be richer than Hanawa-kun?
[06:41] TOMOZOU
    One hundred million won't be enough.
[06:44] MARUKO
    Then how about 500 million yen?
[06:47] TOMOZOU
    Still not enough.
[06:48] MARUKO
    How about one billion?
[06:51] TOMOZOU
    Nah, they'd still be richer than us.
[06:57] MARUKO
    Fine, how about ten billion yen?!
[07:00] TOMOZOU
    Why, yes!
[07:02] TOMOZOU
    We'd be richer than them!
[07:05] MARUKO/I
    Grandpa... with ten billion,
    we can beat Hanawa-kun.
[07:11] TOMOZOU/I
    Yes...
[07:14] TOMOZOU/I
    With ten billion, we're almost invisible.
[07:19] MARUKO
    But for us to make ten billion yen, someone
    will need to give us ten million first.
[07:25] TOMOZOU
    Right.
[07:26] TOMOZOU
    And then we need to make it
    thousand-fold with roulette.
[07:35] NARRATOR/I
    It's still a long way to
    get to Hanawa-kun's level.
[07:39] MARUKO
    But what would you do if you
    really had ten billion yen?
[07:44] TOMOZOU
    Hmm, I've never really
    thought about that before.
[07:50] NARRATOR/I
    Of course you haven't.
[07:52] MARUKO
    Let's buy a tropical island.
[07:57] MARUKO
    Then we'll turn it into a dream island for us!
[08:01] TOMOZOU/I
    "A dream island"?!
[08:21] TOMOZOU
    I love it!
[08:22] TOMOZOU
    I'll be so happy with ten billion yen!
[08:28] MARUKO
    But a tropical island would be too hot.
[08:31] MARUKO
    Shall we buy land somewhere cooler?
[08:33] TOMOZOU
    We just need to buy A/C.
[08:36] TOMOZOU
    We have ten billion yen, after all.
[08:39] MARUKO
    That's true.
[08:40] MARUKO
    You're really smart, Grandpa.
[08:43] MARUKO
    I'm truly happy to be a grandchild
    of a sharp person like you.
[08:47] TOMOZOU
    Oh please, that's an exaggeration.
[08:51] NARRATOR/I
    It really is.
[08:53] MARUKO
    Buying an A/C with ten billion
    yen is like nothing, right?
[08:58] TOMOZOU
    Sure, like a fart.
[09:01] MARUKO
    Buying 100 A/Cs wouldn't even make a dent.
[09:04] TOMOZOU
    It would only be like ten million yen.
[09:07] MARUKO
    So one A/C is as good as if it's free.
[09:10] TOMOZOU
    Exactly.
[09:12] MARUKO
    If it's as good as free,
    maybe we can afford it!
[09:16] MARUKO
    I'll ask Mom one more time.
[09:21] TOMOZOU
    How young she is...
[09:25] TOMOZOU/I
    "Ten billion yen"
[09:27] TOMOZOU/I
    "Impossible to use it up"
[09:29] TOMOZOU/I
    "Such is my life"
[09:30] TOMOZOU/I
    Tomozou's poem of the old man.
[09:35] MARUKO
    Mom, I still think we need to buy an A/C!
[09:39] MARUKO
    Please reconsider.
[09:41] SUMIRE
    You're persistent.
[09:42] SUMIRE
    I told you, "no."
[09:43] MARUKO
    But look, just imagine that
    you have ten billion yen.
[09:48] MARUKO
    Buying one measly A/C is like nothing.
[09:51] MARUKO
    With ten billion yen, a 200-thousand-yen
    A/C is as good as free.
SIGN    Ten billion
[09:57] MARUKO
    Which means it's free.
SIGN    200 thousand
SIGN    Free
[10:01] MARUKO
    Since it's free, please buy it.
[10:03] SUMIRE
    What?
[10:04] SUMIRE
    Ten billion yen?
[10:07] MARUKO
    Like I said, 200-thousand yen for A/C
    out of ten billion yen is like nothing.
[10:15] SUMIRE
    We don't have it.
[10:18] SUMIRE
    There is no ten billion yen...
[10:23] SUMIRE
    Maruko, I don't think your
    brain's working right.
[10:29] SUMIRE
    Why don't you dump some water on your
    head to cool it down in the bath?
[10:42] MARUKO
    Cool it down, huh?
[10:45] MARUKO
    Yeah, seriously.
[10:47] MARUKO
    Getting excited at ten billion
    yen that doesn't exist.
[10:53] MARUKO
    It feels like I've been having a long dream.
[10:57] MARUKO
    I think it's high time I look at reality.
[11:00] HIROSHI
    Hey, Maruko.
[11:03] HIROSHI
    I've got something cool.
[11:04] HIROSHI
    Come here.
[11:07] MARUKO
    What? Something cool?
[11:10] NARRATOR/I
    Continue to the second half.
[11:23] MARUKO
    Cool it down, huh?
[11:25] MARUKO
    Yeah, seriously.
[11:28] MARUKO
    Getting excited at ten billion
    yen that doesn't exist.
[11:33] MARUKO
    It feels like I've been having a long dream.
[11:37] MARUKO
    I think it's high time I look at reality.
[11:41] HIROSHI
    Hey, Maruko.
[11:43] HIROSHI
    I've got something cool.
[11:45] HIROSHI
    Come here.
[11:48] MARUKO
    What? Something cool?
[11:50] MARUKO
    What is it?
[11:51] HIROSHI
    Just come here.
[11:56] MARUKO
    Rhinoceros beetles!
[11:58] HIROSHI
    Something cool, eh?
[12:00] MARUKO
    Wow...
[12:06] MARUKO
    Thank you, Dad!
[12:09] MARUKO
    I'm so happy!
[12:10] MARUKO
    You know me better than anyone.
[12:14] MARUKO
    You're a great father.
[12:16] HIROSHI
    It's only rhinoceros beetles...
[12:22] TOMOZOU
    Oh, I see.
[12:24] TOMOZOU
    Hiroshi knows you more than anyone, huh?
[12:27] TOMOZOU
    Then it wouldn't make you sad
    if I kicked the bucket soon.
[12:38] HIROSHI
    Jeez...
[12:41] MARUKO
    Dad, I like that Japanese
    rhinoceros beetles seem honest.
[12:46] HIROSHI
    Oh, you know about non-Japanese
    rhinoceros beetles?
[12:49] MARUKO
    I do.
[12:50] MARUKO
    There are really big ones
    called Hercules beetles.
[12:55] MARUKO
    I saw a taxidermy of it in a museum once.
[12:59] MARUKO
    It was about 20cm big.
[13:03] MARUKO
    It looked a bossy bad boy,
    and it didn't look cute.
[13:08] HIROSHI/I
    A bossy bad boy?
[13:14] SAKIKO
    Oh, but I like Hercules beetles.
[13:17] SAKIKO
    I think they're cool.
[13:19] SAKIKO
    It's got the air of urban hard rock.
[13:23] SAKIKO
    In comparison, Japanese rhinoceros
    beetles are thickheaded, dull bumpkins.
[13:29] SAKIKO
    Not good at all.
[13:31] SAKIKO
    If you're born as a beetle, you've
    got to be a Hercules beetle.
[13:35] HIROSHI/I
    A thickheaded, dull bumpkin, huh?
[13:40] MARUKO
    How dare you say that in front of
    the Japanese rhinoceros beetles!
[13:46] MARUKO
    You apologize to them right now!
[13:49] SAKIKO
    No way.
[13:50] SAKIKO
    I'm being honest about what I think.
[13:53] SAKIKO
    Hercules beetles are cooler.
[13:57] MARUKO
    That's not true!
[13:58] MARUKO
    Hercules beetles are useless
    blockheads who are just big!
[14:02] SAKIKO
    Humph, Japanese rhinoceros
    beetles are useless too.
[14:07] SAKIKO
    If they're both useless, then might as well
    they should be big, since they're cooler!
[14:10] MARUKO
    A woman like you will fall for flashy
    good-for-nothings who make you cry.
SIGN    Hercules
[14:22] SAKIKO
    You'll be stuck with a
    dull idiot for a husband!
SIGN    Japanese Rhinoceros Beetle
SIGN    Japanese Rhinoceros Beetle
[14:31] MARUKO
    What did you say?!
[14:33] SAKIKO
    You wanna do this?
[14:36] SAKIKO
    Take this!
[14:38] MARUKO
    Damn you!
[14:39] SAKIKO
    Ouch!
[14:40] SAKIKO
    Now you've done it!
[14:42] SUMIRE
    Dad, why are these girls fighting?!
[14:45] HIROSHI
    No clue.
[14:46] HIROSHI
    They said something about
    beetles, but I'm not really sure.
[14:53] MARUKO
    It hurts, it hurts!
[14:55] MARUKO
    My head hurts!
[14:58] MARUKO
    Big sis hit me!
[14:59] MARUKO
    I'm deeply injured!
[15:02] SAKIKO
    You hit your head on the
    corner of the desk yourself.
[15:06] SAKIKO
    It's your own fault!
[15:07] MARUKO
    You evil devil!
[15:09] SUMIRE
    Come on, stop crying, Maruko.
[15:12] SUMIRE
    Why don't you have some watermelon?
[15:14] MARUKO
    Watermelon?
[15:22] MARUKO
    Watermelon is like the symbol of summer.
[15:25] MARUKO
    It's perfect for this season.
[15:27] HIROSHI
    She's smiling already.
[15:29] HIROSHI
    How easy.
[15:31] SAKIKO
    She's a simpleton.
[15:32] SUMIRE
    Stop it, Big sis.
[15:34] MARUKO
    We don't have A/C, and this
    isn't a tropical island,
[15:39] MARUKO
    but sharing watermelon with family and
    seeing rhino beetles like this is happiness.
[15:44] HIROSHI
    Exactly! Well said, Maruko.
[15:48] SAKIKO
    I'd be happier with an
    A/C and a tropical island.
[15:52] MARUKO
    What, you wanna pick a fight with me again?!
[15:56] SAKIKO
    Isn't it true, though?
[15:58] SAKIKO
    A/C and a tropical island are much
    better than watermelon and rhino beetles.
[16:02] MARUKO
    Big sis, wanting something
    you can't have is pointless.
[16:06] MARUKO
    You've got to live your life more positively.
[16:08] HIROSHI
    That's right.
[16:09] HIROSHI
    Big sis is rather cranky today.
[16:17] SAKIKO
    Well, when I went to Yoshiko-san's
    house today, everyone said,
[16:23] SAKIKO
    "In summer, nothing beats lying
    on a couch in a cool room
[16:27] SAKIKO
    with A/C and drinking juice."
[16:31] SAKIKO
    Why don't we have A/C or a couch?
[16:34] SAKIKO
    Among the six of my friends, I was the
    only one who had neither of those!
[16:47] HIROSHI
    Well, excuse me for not
    having A/C or a couch.
[16:51] HIROSHI
    I'll have you know that I'm
    working as hard as I can.
[16:54] TOMOZOU/I
    This is bad...
[16:56] TOMOZOU/I
    There's an awkward air in the family!
[17:01] TOMOZOU/I
    I, Tomozou, must do something!
[17:05] TOMOZOU
    Okay Big sis, I'll use my saving
    to buy us A/C and a couch!
[17:12] TOMOZOU
    Are you happy now?
[17:15] TOMOZOU
    Don't be shy!
[17:17] HIROSHI
    D-Don't say silly things like that so easily!
[17:20] HIROSHI
    There's no room to put a couch in,
    and A/C eats up electricity.
[17:25] HIROSHI
    Man, stop suggesting something so ridiculous.
[17:29] TOMOZOU/I
    Hiroshi yelled at me!
[17:31] TOMOZOU/I
    My own son!
[17:33] TOMOZOU/I
    I just... I just wanted to clear out
    the awkward air in the family...
[17:41] TOMOZOU
    How pathetic.
[17:44] TOMOZOU
    Did I do something wrong?
[17:48] TOMOZOU
    Eh, Hiroshi?
[17:50] MARUKO
    Oh no, Grandpa's crying!
[17:53] HIROSHI
    Why?
[17:55] TOMOZOU
    I simply thought... I'd buy a couch
    and A/C for my grand kids...
[18:01] TOMOZOU
    Then I got yelled at by my
    own son for being ridiculous.
[18:06] TOMOZOU
    I've gotten too old, I guess...
[18:14] TOMOZOU
    Getting old is terrible, I tell you.
[18:20] TOMOZOU
    You have no need for a
    senile old fool, I see...
[18:30] SAKIKO
    I've had enough!
[18:32] SAKIKO
    Why is it so gloomy?!
[18:35] SAKIKO
    I can't be here.
[18:37] MARUKO
    Hey, wait up, Big sis!
[18:40] HIROSHI
    Maruko, just leave her be.
SIGN    Sakura
[18:50] MARUKO
    Big sis...
[18:53] SAKIKO
    Ah well.
[18:55] SAKIKO
    I guess you're right in that there's no
    point in wanting something you can't have.
[19:00] SAKIKO
    Of course I know that.
[19:01] MARUKO
    But I also get that you envy
    your friends for having A/C.
[19:07] MARUKO
    It's summer break, after all.
[19:09] MARUKO
    I hope we get to do something fun.
[19:12] MARUKO
    Look at me, staying at home all day long...
[19:18] MARUKO
    I feel like my day was a waste of time.

[20:05] NARRATOR/I
    and now, she's depressed about
    how poor her family is...
[20:14] MARUKO
    It truly was a crappy day...
[20:18] SAKIKO
    I'm sure it'll be tough to do your
    homework journal about today.
[20:23] MARUKO
    Journal, huh?
[20:25] MARUKO
    How do I describe today?
[20:30] MARUKO
    Today is the 15th.
[20:32] MARUKO
    It's the anniversary of the end of WWII.
[20:35] MARUKO
    It feels empty...
SIGN    To the beach with
    my classmates
[20:42] MARUKO
    Huh?
[20:46] MARUKO
    I totally forgot that
[20:48] MARUKO
    I was supposed to go to the beach
    with my friends from class today.
[20:52] MARUKO
    Tama-chan gave me a call because
    I didn't show up at the meeting spot.
[20:59] MARUKO
    And Hanawa-kun was at the
    beach in town because...

    Bell crickets sound beautiful,
[22:17] MARUKO
    but they can be too loud if
    there are too many of them.

    100 at our house right now...

    I want to release them somewhere,
    but would I get in trouble if I did?

    Would I get arrested by a police officer?
