[00:30] ---
It was cute.
[00:31] ---
I'm the protagonist.
[00:33] ---
I am!
[00:33] ---
No, I am.
[00:34] ---
It's me.
[00:34] ---
This is weird! It's weird!
It's weird! It's me!
[00:37] ---
I'm the oldest sister.
[00:38] ---
We're siblings, so this is important...
[00:41] ---
I know! We'll decide with
rock-paper-scissors!

SIGN #1: Family
[03:07] tani
All done for the day!
[03:12] tani
I'm back!
[03:27] sno
There we go.
[03:29] tan
Thanks, Snow-niisan.
[03:32] tan
We're back!
[03:43] ai
Hey, I'm starved! What're we eating?
[03:48] sui
Sweet-and-sour pork today.
[03:50] tan
Stop reading my mind, Suishi-neesan!
[03:56] ai
I don't need vegetables. Make it all meat.
[03:59] tan
Ashisu-neesan?
[04:05] ashi
Today's sunlight tastes like strawberries!
[04:08] tan
That's not what I was asking...
[04:11] tan
Hold on. I'll get it ready soon.
[04:16] tan
Mom and Dad were arrested.
[04:19] tan
They're what you'd call mad scientists.
[04:21] tan
They considered their kids
to be human guinea pigs.
[04:25] tan
I was the one exception.
[04:28] (Flashback) mom
We're doing photosynthesis tests.
[04:29] (Flashback) mom
From now on, you're only
allowed to drink water.
[04:32] (Flashback) ashi
Okay!
[04:32] (Flashback) mom
Tanisu, it's time for your studies.
[04:34] (Flashback) tan
'Kay.
[04:39] (Flashback) mom
Aisuri, when you're done
with that, it's time to hunt.
[04:42] (Flashback) ai
Got it!
[04:43] (Flashback) mom
Tanisu, your tutor is here.
[04:46] (Flashback) tan
'Kay!
[04:49] (Flashback) mom
Stand! Become human!
[04:52] (Flashback) mom
Too slow.
[04:53] (Flashback) mom
Tanisu, it's time for your studies.
[04:55] (Flashback) ---
'Kay!
[05:01] (Flashback) mom
Put it on. Tell me if you hear anything.
[05:06] (Flashback) mom
Tanisu, go to bed now.
[05:09] tan
I didn't realize it until they got arrested,
[05:11] tan
but keeping a household is hard...
[05:14] tan
What is that?
[05:15] ai
I see you!
[05:32] ai
You're not going anywhere!
[05:56] ashi
She's quite the tomboy, isn't she?
[05:58] tan
I bought all this stuff for us...
[06:01] ashi
I'll see what that was.
[06:13] tan
Nothing ever seems to go right...
[06:20] tan
Well, should we go out for dinner?
[06:28] ai
What'll we get? Cockroaches? Cicadas?
[06:30] tan
I don't think we can eat that stuff.
[06:36] ashi
Don't worry about me. I only
need sunlight and water!
[06:42] sui
I'll pass, too.
[06:45] tan
Really?
[06:48] sui
It's noisy outside.
[06:49] snow
C-Come on, there's no sunlight
at night, and Aisuri needs...
[06:56] snow
Forget it, I guess.
[06:57] tan
Just follow me.
[07:01] girl
Today, famous animation director Miyada
[07:04] girl
reneged on the retirement
he announced the other day.
[07:08] tan
Let's just see how it turns out.
[07:10] tan
I'd prefer not to have to
use this medicine again...
[07:14] girl
Now for our next story.
[07:15] girl
The mysterious explosion on the island
laboratory several days ago—
[07:55] shop
Thank you for coming.
[07:57] shop
How many?
[07:59] tan
Five, please!
[08:01] wait
Here's your tea.
[08:05] snow
What's this about?
[08:07] tan
You use it to wash your cup
before you drink your tea.
[08:13] tan
Like this.
[08:23] sui
Aisuri-neesan is thinking, "What a pain."
[08:27] ai
You're thinking it, too, I bet!
[08:34] tan
That's how you show gratitude to the staff.
[08:39] tan
Now I'm going to order our food.
[08:42] tan
Put a mark next to the name
of the food you want to eat...
[08:52] tan
And we're done!
[08:53] ai
Look at you, grinning like a fool!
[08:54] ai
We ain't even eaten yet.
[08:59] ashi
You really must love this restaurant.
[09:03] ashi
Tani-chan?
[09:05] tan
It's just...
[09:06] tan
This is our first time...
[09:09] tan
Eating together like a normal family...
[09:30] ai
So what?
[09:32] tan
It was kind of a dream of mine...
[09:39] man
Here you are.
[09:40] tan
Here it is!
[09:47] tan
Let's eat it before it gets cold!
[09:53] man
Wh-Where did this dog come from?
[09:58] tan
I'm sorry! Forgive me!
[09:59] ashi
Stop that, pup!
[10:16] ashi
Hot, hot, hot!
[10:19] man
What's with those people? So loud...
[10:22] tan
If it's hot, you should use the chopsticks.
[10:25] tan
Hey, don't spit on it!
[10:27] ai
Shut up!
[10:30] tan
Ashisu-neesan, you try some, too.
[10:33] ashi
No, thank you.
[10:36] tan
Hey...
[10:38] tan
Suishi-neesa—
[10:40] sui
I'll pass.
[10:49] all
So annoying...
[10:51] all
That makes me sick.
[10:54] all
Annoying.
[10:55] all
Who are those people?
[10:57] all
They're freaking me out.
[10:59] all
I hope they'll leave soon.
[11:06] all
Annoying.
[11:07] all
Annoying.
[11:07] all
I wish they'd just leave.
[11:09] all
They don't fit in.
[11:10] all
They're filthy.
[11:11] all
They're gross.
[11:12] all
I wish they'd disappear.
[11:18] tan
That's enough!
[11:21] tan
We're not in the lab anymore!
[11:23] tan
We have to live like normal people!
[11:26] tan
We have no one to rely on.
We don't have much money.
[11:30] tan
But you won't even try to
learn how to be normal!
[11:33] tan
If you don't change, you'll—
[11:38] ai
We'll what?
[11:40] ai
All you do is complain all damn day.
[11:46] ai
We ain't normal.
[11:49] ai
What's the matter with that?
[11:50] ai
Why do we gotta be your idea of "normal"?
[11:57] ai
What even is your idea of "normal"?
[12:11] tan
It's...
[12:18] (Flashback) man
You've never been out of here?
[12:22] (Flashback) man
The outside world is...
[12:25] tan
Ever since that day, I realized I wanted
to live in the outside world with you all.
[12:33] tan
But in the end,
maybe I was just being selfish.
[12:46] tan
Snow-niisan. Ashisu-neesan!
[12:48] ai
Hey, you dumb mutt!
[12:51] snow
My dog side doesn't handle
this atmosphere well,
[12:54] snow
and I've always wanted to try chopsticks...
[12:57] ashi
This is much harder than I imagined it to be!
[13:00] snow
Tanisu does it so well...
[13:05] tan
You'll pick it up right away with practice.
[13:07] tan
See?
[13:10] tan
No matter what life we try to make,
we'll never stop being who we are.
[13:14] tan
Here. For you, too, Aisuri-neesan.
[13:25] ai
What're you staring at? Got a problem?!
[13:29] tan
No, everyone just go on and eat!
[13:38] all
Delicious!
[13:42] ai
Would you like one of my mushrooms?
[13:45] ai
Bring another round!
[13:47] ai
Fill up the plates!
[13:51] tan
Can't you slow down?
[13:52] sui
"If someone makes trouble again,
this will be our last time eating out,"
[13:56] sui
Tanisu thinks.
[13:58] ai
Who do you mean?
[14:00] tan
I wasn't thinking that.
[14:02] tan
I'm having fun being here with everyone.
[14:04] tan
Suishi-neesan, please don't ruin this!
[14:09] ashi
I really do think it's poor manners,
[14:11] ashi
so you should hold the
chopsticks with one hand.
[14:13] ashi
See? Like this?
[14:15] ai
I get it, okay?
[14:23] tani
The truth is, there's also
a thing called a fork...
[14:27] tani
You use it like this.
[14:30] ai
You oughta show me that crap from the start!
[14:39] waiter
Thank you for coming.
[14:45] cus
Those people were pretty amazing, huh?
[14:47] cus
Yeah, all in cosplay and
doing sleight-of-hand!
[15:01] snow
What's the matter?
[15:23] ai
What's with you?
[15:25] ai
Was it so expensive it's making you cry?
[15:27] tan
It's nothing.
[15:33] sui
Tanisu...
[15:34] tan
I was just remembering some things.
[15:37] tan
It's tough having such an eccentric family,
[15:39] tan
but as long as we're
together, we'll work it out.
[15:41] tan
After all, we're family!
SIGN Frankenstein Extras
[16:18] ---
Frankenstein Extras!
[16:21] ---
Today's theme is...
SIGN Today's theme is...
[16:25] ---
If you were going to be modified,
what power would you want?
[16:30] ---
No limits on that question, huh?
[16:32] ---
That's right!
[16:34] ---
What power would I want?
[16:35] ---
Well?
[16:37] ---
The minute I saw the question,
something came to mind.
SIGN Aisuri Mori Nanako
SIGN Suishi Ikuta Yoshiko
SIGN Tanisu Sugiyama Riho
[16:40] ---
If I could have just one wish...
[16:44] ---
I'd want to be a boy.
[16:47] ---
What? Is that a power?
[16:48] ---
It is!
[16:48] ---
It's about modification, right?
[16:50] ---
Like how Snow-niisan can
become a dog, you know?
[16:52] ---
I want to become a boy.
[16:54] ---
My feelings for boys transcends "like".
[16:57] ---
I like boys.
[16:58] ---
I like boys.
[16:59] ---
Like.
[16:59] ---
Like.
[17:00] ---
Want to be one!
[17:01] ---
You?
[17:01] ---
Yes, I want to be one!
[17:03] ---
You don't just want to dote on them?
[17:04] ---
I want to dote on them,
yes, and take care of them.
[17:07] ---
But it surpasses that into wanting to be one.
[17:10] ---
I see!
[17:12] ---
If that had been the last one we said,
that would have been a great punchline.
[17:16] ---
But when you start with that,
nothing we say will be interesting.
[17:21] ---
Not as funny.
[17:22] ---
Why?!
[17:23] ---
I voice a lot of boys.
[17:25] ---
I voice a lot of boy characters,
[17:28] ---
so I observe a lot of boys.
[17:30] ---
Like a stalker?
[17:32] ---
Like normal. Very quietly.
[17:34] ---
I sit around in parks and watch boys playing.
[17:38] ---
Isn't that creepy?
[17:39] ---
It's not creepy! I just people watch.
[17:41] ---
Don't the mothers think, "What's with her?"
[17:42] ---
It's fine!
[17:43] ---
For example.
[17:44] ---
This is just an example.
[17:45] ---
You're in the park sitting on a bench.
[17:48] ---
If a cat walks by, you watch 'em.
[17:50] ---
You're thinkin' "Oh, how cute, how cute."
[17:52] ---
'cause it's a cat.
[17:53] ---
Same with dogs.
[17:55] ---
It's kinda like that.
SIGN Inexplicable Kansai Accent
[17:59] ---
Wait a minute, don't the moms...
[18:02] ---
Miho-chan, are you a psychopath?
[18:03] ---
No, I'm not! It's normal!
[18:05] ---
The boy characters I play experience
fun and joy all the time,
[18:10] ---
but the joy experienced
by boys in real life,
[18:14] ---
like when they're playing
on a jungle gym and such...
[18:16] ---
I don't think I could really get
the feel of it unless I became one.
[18:22] ---
So I'd like to be one if I could.
[18:24] ---
Because I'm playing boy roles.
[18:25] ---
Incidentally, what kind of boy would you be?
[18:28] ---
Um... Ah... Er...
[18:32] ---
Hmm...
[18:32] ---
Is it that hard a decision?
[18:34] ---
I'm really not sure.
[18:35] ---
I like very quiet little boys.
[18:38] ---
Oops, I said little boys.
[18:39] ---
I like cheerful, mischievous,
innocent little boys.
[18:44] ---
And I like pure little boys like Tanisu.
[18:47] ---
Please stop saying "little boys."
[18:49] ---
Sorry!
[18:50] ---
I love beautiful boys, too.
[18:52] ---
I see.
[18:53] ---
But what kind of boy I'd
be is a tricky question.
[18:55] ---
See, there's characters you like.
[18:57] ---
You don't quite want to be
the character you like.
[19:02] ---
You want to become a character
a little different from that.
[19:04] ---
I really am a daydreamer.
[19:05] ---
But you want to be a boy?
[19:07] ---
I want to be a boy, so just having
that ability would be great.
[19:11] ---
Is that why you're good at playing boys?
[19:13] ---
But I want to be one...
[19:15] ---
So being able to play Tanisu makes me happy.
[19:21] ---
I'm happy for you!
[19:23] ---
I love it. It's so much fun.
[19:25] ---
Please enjoy Sugiyama's
wholehearted boy acting.
[19:29] ---
I hope you enjoy it.
[19:29] ---
It seems like everyone really enjoys it.
[19:32] ---
It's fun. I really do love Tanisu.
[19:35] ---
But this segment isn't about
asking people to dote on boys...
[19:38] ---
Oh, right.
[19:39] ---
That's right. "What would you want
to be if you were modified?"
[19:42] ---
Right, I got off-topic.
[19:45] ---
I get that you'd want to
be modified into a boy.
[19:47] ---
Yes, a boy.
[19:49] ---
Was it too powerful? Too powerful?
SIGN If you were going to be modified, what power would you want?
[19:52] ---
I would want... let's see.
[19:55] ---
I would really want the
power to sleep anywhere.
[20:00] ---
You can't sleep anywhere?
[20:01] ---
Well, you know... people who can
sleep in a moving vehicle and such?
[20:07] ---
I really admire them.
[20:09] ---
You can't do that?
[20:10] ---
I can't sleep like that at all.
[20:13] ---
So if you have an event in Osaka,
you can't sleep on the train?
[20:15] ---
I can sleep there!
[20:16] ---
You can?
[20:18] ---
You mean more like short naps?
[20:20] ---
Yes, short naps.
[20:21] ---
How long do you need to get to sleep, then?
[20:27] ---
I need about an hour to get to sleep.
[20:30] ---
There are people who can fall
asleep anywhere, you know?
[20:32] ---
I can sleep anywhere.
[20:35] ---
You have what I want!
[20:37] ---
I really can sleep anywhere.
[20:39] ---
You can?
[20:40] ---
With just a ten minute
break, I'm fast asleep.
[20:43] ---
I sleep so hard I'm drooling.
[20:44] ---
Really? I wish I could do that.
[20:46] ---
I think more people have
that ability than not.
[20:50] ---
You're delicate.
[20:51] ---
I'm very delicate.
[20:52] ---
I work here in this location in the morning.
[20:57] ---
Then I go to the next location.
[21:00] ---
It tires me out.
[21:02] ---
If I could just get a nap in then.
[21:04] ---
It's really refreshing.
[21:05] ---
Very refreshing.
[21:08] ---
I understand how you feel.
[21:11] ---
That's too bad.
[21:12] ---
It's harder than you'd think.
[21:13] ---
Annoying, right? We work for so long.
[21:15] ---
It's very hard when you have
multiple jobs in one day.
[21:17] ---
It's really exhausting if you have a lot of
recordings where you really need to focus.
[21:21] ---
And I don't sleep well.
[21:23] ---
Wow.
[21:24] ---
You need sleep powers.
[21:27] ---
I don't need modification. I need health.
[21:29] ---
"Health" sounds a little...
[21:32] ---
I want health.
[21:36] ---
I'd want a modification that lets me
eat all I like and not gain weight.
SIGN If you were going to be modified, what power would you want?
[21:39] ---
Yeah, totally!
[21:41] ---
The ultimate request.
[21:44] ---
I love eating, but I put
on weight very easily.
[21:49] ---
I put on weight so fast. I just balloon up.
[21:52] ---
Depending on how much you eat?
[21:53] ---
I have a catchphrase: My hobby is dieting,
my special skill is the rebound.
[21:58] ---
That's so funny. That's too funny!
[22:02] ---
I always say that when I introduce myself,
but I'd like to not say it anymore.
[22:07] ---
No more diets.
[22:09] ---
"I can't put on weight, it's so much trouble."
[22:12] ---
"I can't put on weight,
no matter how much I eat.."
[22:15] ---
I've always wanted to say that.
[22:17] ---
Then you'll get punched.
[22:19] ---
But there are some girls so thin they
want to put on weight, you know?
[22:23] ---
There are!
[22:24] ---
They have that metabolism.
[22:24] ---
I wish I could be that way.
[22:27] ---
I think all girls want to be that way.
[22:30] ---
If a modification could do
that, it's what I'd want.
[22:31] ---
True.
[22:32] ---
We're so basic.
[22:35] ---
So very basic.
[22:37] ---
That's too practical.
[22:39] ---
There are lots of abilities out there,
[22:43] ---
and a lot of them would be great,
and you'd like to have them,
[22:46] ---
but they also come with
problems of their own.
[22:48] ---
Yeah, they do.
[22:50] ---
So I think it's best to do your
best with what you have.
[22:54] ---
You sound like a textbook.
[22:57] ---
It's best to do what you
can with what you have.
[23:00] ---
Well said.
[23:02] ---
Let's all do our best with what we have.
