**[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.
***SIGN*** What Maruko Did Today
**[19:25] NARRATOR/I**
What Maruko did today:
***SIGN*** One: Got excited over non-existent ten billion yen with Grandpa

Four: Had a fight with her sister
because of said beetles.
***SIGN*** After That
**[19:58] NARRATOR/I**
After that...
**[20:00] NARRATOR/I**
Her grandfather cried,
**[20:03] NARRATOR/I**
her sister got mad,
**[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...
**[21:08] MARUKO**
I bet everyone had fun.
**[21:16] MARUKO**
Blue sky.
**[21:21] MARUKO**
Sparkling sea.
**[21:35] MARUKO**
Big sis, I've totally wasted what
could have been an amazing day.
**[21:42] MARUKO**
Seriously, happiness doesn't
come walking toward you.
**[21:46] MARUKO**
That's why you keep on walking.

Bell crickets sound beautiful,
**[22:17] MARUKO**
but they can be too loud if
there are too many of them.
**[22:20] MARUKO**
It feels like there are over
100 at our house right now...
**[22:23] MARUKO**
I want to release them somewhere,
but would I get in trouble if I did?
**[22:26] MARUKO**
Would I get arrested by a police officer?
***SIGN*** Bell Crickets Are Noisy
**[22:29] MARUKO**
Next time on Chibi Maruko-chan:
"Bell Crickets Are Noisy."
**[22:33] MARUKO**
Look forward to it!
