SIGN    Summary of previous episodes
[00:01] ---
    Last time on Frankenstein Family*:
[00:07] ---
    All of a sudden, my family was gone.
[00:13] ---
    I walked around town,
[00:15] ---
    I talked to everyone I met,
[00:16] ---
    but I couldn't find them.
[00:20] ---
    Just then, I ran into Sumire-chan.
[00:22] ---
    And she made me realize that*
    the way I'd been acting was wrong.
[00:30] ---
    My siblings were just fine the way they were.
[00:36] ---
    The teacher managed to get us a boat,
    and we headed out onto the stormy sea.
[00:42] ---
    Kuma-san, you're willing
    to go with us?
[00:46] ---
    Huh? Can you drive a boat, ma'am?

    Hold on tight!
[02:53] teach
    Tanisu-kun!
[02:56] teach
    You okay?
[02:59] tan
    Yes. Thank you...
[03:01] land
    There we go.
[03:03] land
    This should be easier on us.
[03:05] tan
    Why did you come with me?
[03:10] tan
    This is all my fault.
[03:12] tan
    But I've ended up having to ask
     people for so much help...
[03:16] tan
    And you've actually helped me...
[03:18] land
    Hey, it's fine.
[03:21] land
    No one can live all by themselves.
[03:24] land
    That's why you have friends,
    loved ones, and family.
[03:29] land
    Family...
[03:30] land
    We're not related by blood.
[03:33] land
    But if I could, I'd like to
    be a part of your family.
[03:38] land
    Some old friends taught
    me that a long time ago.
[03:46] land
    Hold on tight!
[03:48] tan
    Thank you!
[03:53] teach
    We're here!
[03:55] land
    Boy, that was close!
[04:00] tan
    Is that...
[04:08] tan
    It's still wet.
[04:09] tan
    They can't have been here long...
[04:11] tan
    Tanisu-kun.
[04:13] tan
    Go do what you came here for.
[04:17] tan
    Okay!
[04:21] teach
    Not going with him?
[04:25] land
    I'm sure he'll come back.
[04:28] teach
    Because you're family, is that it?
[05:00] tan
    Which way was it?
[05:24] tan
    Okay...
[05:36] tan
    It would be easy with my sisters' abilities,
[05:40] tan
    but I can't jump that far...
[05:48] tan
    That was close!
[05:49] tan
    Is there anything I can use?
[05:52] tan
    How about that?
[06:07] tan
    This is what I needed.
[06:24] tan
    Almost there...
[06:35] tan
    It's such a simple thing, and yet...
[06:39] tan
    I should have told them earlier.
[06:42] tan
    All I had to do was talk to them, but...
[07:07] tan
    Snow-niisan!
[07:13] snow
    Tanisu?
[07:19] tan
    Let's go home together.
[07:26] snow
    Our home is here.
[07:29] tan
    Why?
[07:31] ashi
    Because we're monsters.
[07:34] ai
    We can't live among humans, right?
[07:37] tan
    You won't know until you try.
[07:40] tan
    I'm making medicine that
    will turn you all human...
[07:43] tan
    So hang in just a little bit longer!
[07:46] ai
    How long are we supposed to wait?
[07:48] ashi
    Until next year? Ten years?
[07:51] ashi
    If someone finds us before then,
    how will you protect us?
[08:02] sui
    Tanisu. You don't understand
    the real problem.
[08:06] tan
    I do!
[08:07] ai
    No, you don't. We're—
[08:10] tan
    Aisuri-neesan, you've never thought there
    was anything wrong with the way you are.
[08:15] tan
    Ashisu-neesan, you just don't want
     any involvement with humans.
[08:19] tan
    Suishi-neesan, too...
[08:21] tan
    you also think humans are shady creatures
    who lose their minds over any little thing.
[08:27] tan
    Maybe I can't fix all that the way I am now.
[08:31] tan
    I don't know how to let you coexist
    with the other humans, either.
[08:36] tan
    But...
[08:40] tan
    But...
[08:42] tan
    That's no reason for you to leave me behind!
[08:46] tan
    Does that mean you think of me the
    same way you do any other human?!
[08:56] snow
    Yes.
[09:03] snow
    You are human.
[09:05] snow
    We are monsters.
[09:08] snow
    Humans live in the city.
[09:10] snow
    Monsters are locked up
    in dark, cramped places.
[09:14] snow
    This is the lifestyle that suits us both.
[09:17] tan
    What are you basing that on?
[09:20] tan
    That can't be right!
[09:23] tan
    I've been working hard all
    this time, all for you guys!
[09:30] snow
    Monsters sometimes eat humans!
[09:40] snow
    If, some day, our identities get out,
[09:44] snow
    you may even lose your dreams,
     and all the people you love.
[09:48] snow
    The people who trusted you.
    The people who came to love you.
[09:52] snow
    They'll think of you as someone
    who protected monsters, and...
[09:58] snow
    That's the nature of the humans,
     who made us monsters to begin with.
[10:06] snow
    Maybe Mom and Dad modified us this way
[10:10] snow
    so that we wouldn't become
    that other kind of monster.
[10:19] tan
    I don't get it.
[10:20] tan
    You might be right, Snow-niisan.
[10:24] tan
    But there's still so much we don't know...
[10:28] snow
    Go back to human society.
[10:30] snow
    You can find your answers there.
[10:34] tan
    Then you guys are just right all the time?
[10:39] tan
    You've never acted selfishly and
    thoughtlessly like humans do?!
[10:45] snow
    We...
[10:47] tan
    You're all being pretty selfish, too!
[10:51] tan
    Have you ever thought how I would feel
    if you ran away without telling me?!
[10:56] tan
    It's for my benefit, you say?
[10:58] tan
    Humans can't coexist with monsters?
[11:01] tan
    That's all an excuse!
[11:03] tan
    You're the ones who don't know what to do,
[11:08] tan
    so you're following your instincts
    to retreat to the mountains!
[11:12] tan
    We're a special family!
[11:15] tan
    That's why we have to work
    together to find our answers!
[11:20] snow
    You're wrong.
[11:22] snow
    Humans and monsters can't ever...
[11:27] tan
    If there's something else we need,
    we can look for it after we go home!
[12:01] tan
    Then answer me one last question!
[12:12] tan
    I want to know how Snow-niisan really feels.
[12:17] tan
    Snow-niisan!
[12:20] tan
    How do you really want to live?!
[12:45] snow
    I...
[12:48] snow
    I...
[12:50] snow
    I want to live together with
    you and everyone forever!
[13:01] tan
    That's right. We don't need a reason.
[13:05] tan
    It doesn't matter if we don't have an answer.
[13:07] tan
    We just want to make a life
    with the family we love.
[13:12] tan
    Because I am...
[13:13] tan
    And I am...
[13:15] tan
    And I am...
[13:16] tan
    And I am...
[13:17] tan
    We are all...
[13:18] tan
    part of the Frankenstein Family.
[13:47] ai
    What is this? There's so much...
[13:50] tan
    This is called poon choi!
[13:52] tan
    It's a thing you eat with the whole family.
[14:04] ashi
    It's delicious!
[14:17] ai
    That was great!
[14:19] ai
    Human food really is the best.
[14:21] ai
    Way tastier than cockroaches!
[14:23] ashi
    This water is delicious!
[14:25] ashi
    I'll grow a lot of great
    mushrooms based on this!
[14:29] snow
    No, puppy! You can't come out now!
[14:39] tan
    I'd like to ask your opinions about something.
[14:43] tan
    What is it?
[14:45] sui
    It comes with a serious risk.
[14:47] ai
    A risk of what?
[14:50] tan
    Let's tell Kuma-san about ourselves.
[14:57] tan
    I don't think we can hide it much longer.
[15:00] land
    Hide what?
[15:10] tan
    Nothing!
[15:11] sui
    If...
[15:13] sui
    If we were hiding something,
    could you still stay with us?
[15:17] land
    Even Suishi's talking to me...
[15:20] land
    If they're hiding something...
[15:24] land
    Well, everyone has a secret or
    two they don't want to tell!
[15:29] land
    You do! I do!
[15:31] land
    So I guess we have a lot in common!
[15:37] land
    That is, just as long
    as it's nothing illegal!
[15:43] tan
    Can we tell him, do you think?
[15:45] land
    Hey, are you really hiding something?
[15:50] land
    Did you break something?
[15:53] land
    If that's it, you should tell me!
[15:54] land
    I'll have to take it to get fixed—
[15:56] tan
    Not about that!
[15:58] tan
    What we're hiding... is about our family!
[16:08] land
    Can it be... Are they connected to Yu-chan?
[16:12] land
    It couldn't be... but maybe it could?
[16:16] land
    Is that why they're all here?
[16:18] land
    But it couldn't be anything
    this convenient, right?
[16:21] land
    Damn, I'm getting nervous.
[16:24] land
    The moment I've been waiting
    for has finally arrived...
[16:27] land
    Now that I think about it, I can't
    believe I didn't think of it.
[16:30] land
    If it's connected to Yu-chan... that's all
    the more reason I can't let this slip by.
[16:34] land
    If if it's a single ray of hope,
     there's still a chance!
[16:37] land
    I'm glad I didn't give up! Ema will be so happy!
[16:38] land
    Wait, don't leap to conclusions.
[16:40] land
    It might be totally unrelated!
[16:42] sui
    Shut the hell up!
[16:46] snow
    Suishi?
[16:47] snow
    Who is this "Yu" person?
[16:49] all
    Suishi!

    Today's theme is...
SIGN    Today's theme is...
[16:57] sign
    Here.
[16:59] sign
    Ta-da!
[17:00] sign
    Tell us some memories from your time recording.
[17:03] sign
    Hmm...
SIGN    Tell us some memories from your time recording.
[17:05] sign
    Let's see.
[17:06] sign
    Good memories, huh?
[17:08] sign
    A lot of delightful things have
    happened during this whole process.
SIGN    Ashisu
     Hayami Saori
[17:14] sign
    The double act between Ashisu and Aisuri.
[17:19] sign
    They cover for each other. They have a lot
    of lines where they fill in for each other.
[17:25] sign
    They shout "hooray hooray" together,
    talk to "Mama" together...
[17:30] sign
    They have a lot of lines
    we have to say together.
[17:34] sign
    Snow!
[17:40] sign
    Mama!
[17:42] sign
    Can you tell which is which?
[17:46] sign
    Oh, please. You're totally different.
[17:50] sign
    That's not true.
[17:52] sign
    Compare our hairstyles!
[17:56] sign
    Compare our eyes!
[18:00] sign
    Compare our shadows!
[18:04] sign
    Yes, the more you grow,
    the more alike you seem to look.
[18:09] sign
    We could have filmed a superhero movie
    about a spider-woman and a plant-woman.
[18:14] sign
    What's a movie?
[18:17] sign
    You don't need to know such things.
[18:21] sign
    Ever since that first came up,
[18:24] sign
    we were almost perfectly in sync,
    even in rehearsals.
[18:29] sign
    That made me really happy, personally.
[18:46] sign
    I want us to be the same.
[18:58] sign
    To talk together.
[19:00] sign
    To eat together.
[19:02] sign
    To play together.
[19:04] sign
    To sleep together.
[19:06] sign
    Because...
[19:10] sign
    since the day we were born...
[19:13] sign
    we have always been together.
[19:15] sign
    Even if our powers are different,
[19:19] sign
    we know.
[19:21] sign
    We are the same!
[19:26] sign
    No matter what you look
    like, you're still Aisuri.
[19:51] sign
    Even from the first episode, I've felt
     like we really were a family.
[19:57] sign
    It made me really happy.
[20:00] sign
    Hayami-san and I worked on
     a certain anime for little girls.
SIGN    Aisuri
    Mori Nanako
SIGN    Suishi
    Ikuta Yoshiko
SIGN    Tanisu
    Sugiyama Rie
[20:04] sign
    Different generations of it, of course.
[20:06] sign
    But we got to work together.
[20:09] sign
    We were saying, "Ah, we meet again."
[20:11] sign
    "I guess I'm a plant again..." and such.
[20:14] sign
    You were a plant?
[20:16] sign
    It was perfect, huh?
[20:18] sign
    We talked about those things.
[20:20] sign
    And several times recording
    with Namikawa-san,
[20:23] sign
    this was a while back
    that we'd been together.
[20:26] sign
    I didn't think he'd remember me, but he did.
[20:30] sign
    Of course he did.
[20:32] sign
    He remembers a lot about everyone.
[20:34] sign
    I remember thinking he was so amazing.
[20:38] sign
    I was with Namikawa-san in my debut show.
[20:41] sign
    I didn't know anything
    about being a voice actor.
[20:46] sign
    So he's the one who taught me
    all about the mic and stuff.
[20:50] sign
    So nice!
[20:51] sign
    His stock is rising.
[20:53] sign
    Because of that,
[20:55] sign
    I think when he sees me talk into the mic,
    he's probably very impressed.
[20:58] sign
    Like a proud father?
[21:00] sign
    Yeah, I think so.
[21:02] sign
    He's watching over me like a father.
[21:06] sign
    It's nice to form those
    connections on the job.
[21:10] sign
    There are some people I was
    meeting for the first time.
SIGN    Snow
    Namikawa Daisuke
[21:14] sign
    And of course people I've worked
    with many times before.
[21:19] sign
    Um... Sugiyama-san plays the main character.
[21:26] sign
    Um... should I say this?
    I'm not sure if I should.
[21:32] sign
    But she does great imitations.
[21:35] sign
    She hears a voice, and
    she doesn't realize it,
[21:39] sign
    I realized that she can
    imitate certain voices.
[21:45] sign
    So I had her do it.
[21:47] sign
    "Oh, this is... is it true?
    Do I sound the same?"
[21:51] sign
    And I said, "Say this line."
[21:53] sign
    and she did it perfectly.
[21:55] sign
    But we can't get her to perform it here.
    (Because it is another show)
[21:59] sign
    I have a lot of memories like that,
    in the show we just did.
[22:05] sign
    I feel like our family had
    a nice recording together.
[22:11] sign
    Namikawa-san joined us
    in our second recording.
[22:14] sign
    But it's like his aura changed a lot.
[22:16] sign
    He was having a lot of fun,
    he was teasing us a lot.
[22:19] sign
    It was a lot of fun.
[22:21] sign
    He made me do imitations of
    totally different shows on site.
[22:26] sign
    Yes, he did! That's a great memory.
[22:30] sign
    After rehearsals ended and before
    we started recording,
[22:34] sign
    he made me do about two imitations.
[22:36] sign
    It really was perfect.
[22:38] sign
    He said you did a great imitation
    of a failure character
[22:40] sign
    from a certain family anime.
[22:42] sign
    Yes.
[22:43] sign
    You really do.
[22:44] sign
    I don't know. I really don't know.
[22:46] sign
    He made you do that one,
[22:48] sign
    then he said, "Do that one next."
[22:52] sign
    Was that an imitation?
[22:53] sign
    No! No!
[22:55] sign
    It wasn't malicious.
[22:57] sign
    You did sound like him, though.
[22:58] sign
    Yeah!
[23:00] sign
    But it's like we have a very
    soothing older sister,
[23:04] sign
    and a fun-loving older brother.
[23:07] sign
    Those two together.
[23:08] sign
    It was soothing?
[23:10] sign
    I was really nervous when we started,
[23:13] sign
    but I feel like they pulled me along.
[23:17] sign
    But that was true for everyone.
    The staff, the director, everyone.
[23:24] sign
    Everyone really had my back.
[23:27] sign
    It was a great recording.
[23:31] sign
    It was fun.
[23:32] sign
    That's a great story.
[23:34] sign
    Good!
[23:35] sign
    I thought it was really nice.
