    Oh! It's Baumkuchen.

    Grandma got it as a gift.

    It's snack time, so you two can share it.
[01:47] MARUKO
    Hooray! I'm so happy!
[01:51] MARUKO
    I want to cut it.
[01:53] SAKIKO
    You're gonna mess it up.
[01:56] MARUKO
    You think so?
[01:57] SAKIKO
    You can't cut it neatly.
[02:00] MARUKO
    Okay.
[02:05] SAKIKO
    Sh-Shut up!
[02:11] MARUKO
    You messed it up, too.
[02:13] SAKIKO
    I'll take this one.
[02:15] MARUKO
    What?! Isn't that one a bit bigger?
[02:19] SAKIKO
    That's not true.
[02:20] MARUKO
    It is true.
[02:22] SAKIKO
    I'm the older one, so
    I get to pick one first.
[02:26] MARUKO
    That's not fair.
[02:28] SAKIKO
    That's how it works.
[02:29] MARUKO
    But you'll always be older than me.
[02:34] SAKIKO
    Naturally.
[02:35] MARUKO
    I can never catch up to you ever!
[02:38] SAKIKO
    Naturally.
[02:40] MARUKO
    That's totally unfair!
[02:42] TOMOZOU
    Oh my, what seems to be the problem?
[02:44] MARUKO
    Listen, it's awful.
[02:46] MARUKO
    Big Sis took the bigger piece.
[02:48] TOMOZOU
    Oh? But they seem like the same size to me.
[02:52] MARUKO
    They're not the same! That one's bigger.
[02:56] SAKIKO
    I'm digging in!
[03:01] SAKIKO
    Oh wow, it's so good!
[03:03] SAKIKO
    Aren't you gonna eat it?
[03:04] MARUKO
    Hmph. You don't need to tell me. I will.

[03:12] SUMIRE
    Two people are supposed to participate,
    so can someone come with me?
[03:15] TOMOZOU
    Sorry, I have plans after this.
[03:19] SUMIRE
    Then how about Big Sis or Maruko?
[03:21] MARUKO
    No, thanks.
[03:22] MARUKO
    This is a great opportunity
    for Big Sis to step up.
[03:25] SAKIKO
    Why me?
[03:27] MARUKO
    Because you're the older one.
[03:29] SAKIKO
    That's got nothing to do with it.
[03:31] MARUKO
    Yes, it does.
[03:33] SAKIKO
    No, it doesn't!
[03:34] MARUKO
    Yes, it does!
[03:36] SUMIRE
    I don't care who.
[03:38] SAKIKO
    Maruko, you go.
[03:40] MARUKO
    No, thank you.
[03:41] MARUKO
    I'll just eat my small piece of Baumkuchen.
[03:46] MARUKO
    Yum! What a tasty, tiny Baumkuchen.
[03:51] SUMIRE
    I don't care which one of
    you comes. Pick one.
[03:55] SAKIKO
    Fine. Rock-paper-scissors it is.
[03:57] MARUKO
    Okay. Don't you cheat.

    Goodness, that's all?
[06:11] MARUKO
    Some insufferable child you are.
[06:14] SAKIKO
    What do you mean?
[06:15] MARUKO
    You treat me like a child all the time.
[06:19] SAKIKO
    That's totally a different story!
[06:21] MARUKO
    Take earlier today, for example.
[06:24] MARUKO
    I wanted to cut Baumkuchen,
    but you didn't let me.
[06:27] SAKIKO
    That's because you suck at it.
[06:29] MARUKO
    You sucked at it too.
[06:32] SAKIKO
    That's enough out of you!
[06:33] TOMOZOU
    Come on now, you two.
[06:38] (Flashback) GIRL 2
    I have a little sister that's the

    I invited her to a picnic, but she
    said she didn't want to go with me.

    I wish I had a little sister who
    would willingly come to clean with me

    even on a Sunday, like you.

    Jeez. There goes my Sunday.

[07:09] (Flashback) GIRL 2
    We can do that rest.
[07:11] (Flashback) GIRL 1
    Go ahead and sit down, get some rest.
[07:13] (Flashback) SAKIKO
    Okay...
[07:16] SAKIKO
    They were treating me as
    a child, not their equal.
[07:21] TOMOZOU
    That's not true!
[07:22] TOMOZOU
    That was their kindness.
[07:24] MARUKO
    I've felt that way before.
[07:27] SAKIKO
    What?
[07:28] MARUKO
    When we played tag a long time
    ago, you'd run slow to chase me.
[07:34] SAKIKO
    Did I do that?
[07:35] MARUKO
    You finally understand how
    I, a younger one, feel.
[07:39] MARUKO
    Good girl.

    What does that mean?

    I'm not used to being treated like
    a younger one, so it's a little...

    Mom, we'll have a sleepover
    with just two of us.
[16:57] MARUKO
    Thanks!
[16:59] SUMIRE
    Very good.
[17:01] TOMOZOU
    Noguchi-san, thank you for having me in
    place of Tama-chan to play house with.
[17:08] TOMOZOU
    All righty! Then I shall play a lively dad!
[17:13] MARUKO
    Grandpa, don't push yourself.
[17:16] MARUKO
    You can just play grandfather, as you are.
[17:21] TOMOZOU
    I understand.
[17:22] TOMOZOU
    Grandpa will play a grandpa.
[17:26] MARUKO
    So, what do you want to play, Noguchi-san?
[17:30] NOGUCHI
    A grandchild.
[17:31] MARUKO
    Huh? You mean the grandchild of Grandpa?
[17:34] NOGUCHI
    Yes.
[17:35] TOMOZOU
    Noguchi-san, you'll be my grandchild?!
[17:39] NOGUCHI
    Yes.
[17:39] TOMOZOU
    Heavens! I am going to get
    a new grandchild, huh?
[17:43] TOMOZOU
    That makes me happy.
[17:46] MARUKO
    Then I'll play a grandmother.
[17:50] MARUKO
    Oh boy, my shoulders are stiff.
[17:53] MARUKO
    Dear, please massage my shoulders.
[17:55] TOMOZOU
    My pleasure!
[18:00] MARUKO
    Dear, you're not good at massaging.
[18:04] TOMOZOU/I
    Maruko, you don't hold back even
    though this is just playing house...
[18:09] MARUKO
    Dear, that's enough.
[18:11] MARUKO
    Thank you.
[18:12] TOMOZOU
    Okay...
[18:17] TOMOZOU
    Oh, Noguchi-san! Thank you!
[18:20] NOGUCHI
    Call me Emiko.
[18:21] TOMOZOU
    Oh, my bad.
[18:24] TOMOZOU
    Thank you, Emiko.
[18:30] TOMOZOU
    Ah, my shoulders feel so light,
    I feel like I can fly away.
[18:39] TOMOZOU
    Oh?
[18:40] TOMOZOU
    Where am I?
[18:43] TOMOZOU
    Am I in heaven?
[18:44] MARUKO
    Pull yourself together, dear.
[18:47] NOGUCHI
    Please don't die.
[18:51] TOMOZOU
    Emiko, I want to thank you
    for the shoulder massage.
[18:57] TOMOZOU
    Name your price.
[18:59] TOMOZOU
    I'm happy to do anything
    for my precious grandchild.
[19:04] NOGUCHI
    Then... make me laugh.
[19:08] TOMOZOU
    Make you laugh?
[19:13] TOMOZOU
    How is that, Emiko?
[19:15] NOGUCHI
    I love it!
[19:19] MARUKO/NOGUCHI
    Thank you for the food!
[19:21] MARUKO
    Wow! So many chestnuts!
[19:24] NOGUCHI
    It's tasty.

    It is?
[19:27] TOMOZOU
    I'm glad you like it!
[19:28] MARUKO
    Grandpa splurged on the expensive
    chestnuts for our sleepover.
[19:34] NOGUCHI
    What happened to the chestnut picking?
[19:38] TOMOZOU
    Due to various circumstances,
    we couldn't do it.
[19:43] TOMOZOU
    I'm sorry.
[19:44] NOGUCHI
    Hmm.
[19:45] NOGUCHI
    Thank you.
[19:47] TOMOZOU/I
    Noguchi-san is such a good kid.
[19:53] MARUKO
    Momoe-chan!
[19:58] HIROSHI
    Kin-chan truly is a funny guy.

[20:01] NOGUCHI
    Exactly.
[20:02] HIROSHI
    Oh, Noguchi-san. We're like-minded, huh?
[20:05] NOGUCHI
    I like Jiro-san, too.
[20:08] HIROSHI
    Oh yeah, Sakagami Jiro is great too.
[20:10] HIROSHI
    Kin-chan can shine because Jiro-san is there.
[20:16] MARUKO
    Dad, you can say something
    good every now and then.
[20:19] NOGUCHI
    Sakura-san's dad is amazing.
[20:21] HIROSHI
    You think so?
[20:22] HIROSHI
    That's right. I might not look
    it, but I'm actually amazing.
[20:26] MARUKO
    Jeez, Dad. Don't get carried away.
[20:33] MARUKO
    Kin-chan makes me laugh too much!
[20:39] TOMOZOU
    My stomach hurts!
[20:43] MARUKO
    Was that you?! Come on, Dad!
[20:46] HIROSHI
    I shouldn't have done that
    in front of our guest.
[20:48] HIROSHI
    My bad, my bad!
[20:50] MARUKO
    Forgive us, Noguchi-san.
[20:52] MARUKO
    We're one silly family.
[20:55] NOGUCHI
    Sakura-san's family is fun.
[20:57] MARUKO
    What? You think so?
[20:59] TOMOZOU
    That's nice to hear.
[21:01] TOMOZOU
    Noguchi-san, if you find this family so fun,
[21:05] TOMOZOU
    would you like to become a
    grandchild of this family?
[21:07] HIROSHI
    Yeah, good idea.
[21:09] MARUKO
    What? I feel bad for Noguchi-san if she
    has to become a part of this silly family.
[21:14] HIROSHI
    You've got a point there.

[21:26] MARUKO
    so we can go visit her.

    You're like a totally different person,

    Maybe I'll change my hairstyle like
