SIGN    Summary of previous episodes
[00:01] tan
    Last week on Frankenstein Family...
[00:07] tan
    I'm Tanisu, a young genius scientist.
[00:11] tan
    For complicated reasons,
    my parents aren't around.
[00:16] tan
    I have one older brother
    and three older sisters.
[00:20] tan
    I'm the youngest.
[00:22] tan
    The others have all been
    modified by our parents
[00:27] tan
    to have all kinds of special abilities.
[00:30] tan
    I'm the only normal human.
[00:32] tan
    I've been working hard to get them all
    to adjust to ordinary life, but...
[00:40] tan
    They don't care about all I go through,
    and they keep messing everything up!
[00:45] tan
    We fight sometimes, but we're family.
[00:50] tan
    I've gotta work hard so we
    can make a life together.
[00:53] tan
    I'm a genius, after all!

[02:43] (Flashback) tan
    Miss!
[02:45] (Flashback) tan
    What's the next problem?
[02:50] (Flashback) teach
    I'm sorry. I can't take any more!
[02:53] (Flashback) mom
    It's all right.
[02:55] (Flashback) dad
    That's my son. He's a genius.
[02:57] (Flashback) dad
    Superior to all the others.
[02:59] (Flashback) mom
    He's not just yours. He's ours, remember?
[03:03] (Flashback) dad
    Of course.
[03:08] (Flashback) dad
    This way!
[03:11] (Flashback) tan
    Papa, how come no one else has to study?
[03:15] (Flashback) dad
    Their bodies have been modified
    to give them special abilities.
[03:19] (Flashback) dad
    But to the same degree, I can't expect
    much from them in the way of brains.
[03:22] (Flashback) dad
    At least not compared to you.
[03:24] (Flashback) dad
    Great one!
[03:27] (Flashback) dad
    This way!
[03:30] (Flashback) mom
    Tanisu, what would you like for dinner?
[03:33] (Flashback) tan
    Um... I want to try milk pudding!
[03:36] (Flashback) tan
    I read about it in a book.
[03:40] (Flashback) mom
    All right.
[03:41] (Flashback) mom
    Then I'll create you my
    extra-special milk pudding.
[03:45] (Flashback) tan
    Make some for them, too!
[03:47] (Flashback) dad
    We can't, Tanisu.
[03:49] (Flashback) dad
    They're still in the middle
    of their experiment.
[03:52] (Flashback) dad
    We don't want to tamper with the data.
[03:55] (Flashback) dad
    Now, return to your studies.
[04:02] tan
    Sis! How many times have I told you not
    to leave the house without permission?
[04:07] aisu
    You sure like to tell me
     what to do, don't ya?
[04:10] aisu
    I don't take orders from some snot-nosed
    brat who can't even hunt by himself!
[04:19] tan
    If you want to go out that bad,
    you have to take this medicine first!
[04:25] aisu
    I ain't taking that weird medicine...
[04:30] aisu
    No way!
[04:33] ai
    "Be a normal human."
[04:35] ai
    "Don't go outside."
[04:37] ai
    I've had enough of your crap.
[04:39] tan
    I'm telling you this for your own sake.
[04:42] tan
    If we're not careful, something
    terrible will happen some day.
[04:46] tan
    I'm the only member of this family
    who understands the rules of society.
[04:50] tan
    I've been outside, and interacted
    with all kinds of people.
[04:53] tan
    I'm also a lot smarter than you...
[04:56] tan
    And I do all the housework all by myself.
[05:00] tan
    If you want to live your lives in peace,
    you should do what I tell you to.
[05:05] ashi
    Tani-chan, we really appreciate it!
[05:08] ai
    Hey!
[05:10] snow
    Tanisu does have a point.
[05:15] sui
    It's true that Tanisu is more
    intelligent than we are.
[05:18] sui
    We should do as he says,
     and leave everything to him.
[05:26] ai
    Dammit!
[05:28] ai
    You'd better do all the house crap perfectly!
[05:30] ai
    'Cause I'm gonna behave.
[05:36] tan
    Fine.
[05:37] tan
    I'll do just as you say.
[05:39] tan
    I'm gonna go shopping.
[05:41] tan
    You all wait here.
[05:44] snow
    Wait! I'll go with you.
[05:47] ai
    No way! Make him do it all himself!
[05:58] snow
    You think Tanisu is okay?
[06:02] ashi
    The blessings of the sun!
[06:38] shop
    Here you are.
[06:38] sumi
    Um, I didn't buy that, though.
[06:45] shop
    I added it in a bonus,
    because it's so hot out.
[06:51] sumi
    Thanks!
[07:05] sumi
    Not gonna buy one?
[07:06] tan
    Um... Well...
[07:09] tan
    Er...
[07:16] sumi
    You can have this!
[07:18] tan
    It's fine! Um, I couldn't take that.
[07:22] sumi
    It's okay. I got it for free.
[07:29] sumi
    Say, "Ah!"
[07:33] sumi
    Ah!
[07:37] tan
    Ah...
[07:47] tan
    It's delicious.
[07:51] sumi
    Of course it is!
[07:55] sumi
    Here.
[08:01] sumi
    Bye-bye!
[08:02] tan
    Sure.
[08:35] tan
    Where am I?
[08:37] tan
    This is weird.
[08:39] tan
    I was sure I was on the road home...
SIGN    North Luji Road Huaban Street
SIGN    Fushi Villa
[09:08] tan
    I started daydreaming and
    forgot my own weakness.
[09:13] tan
    I have a really lousy sense of direction.
[09:15] tan
    If only the others were here.
[09:18] (Flashback) ai
    Do it yourself!
[09:21] tani
    Never mind. I need to work it out myself.
[09:26] tani
    This is an island.
[09:27] tani
    If I just follow the road, I'll get
     back to town eventually.
[09:53] ashi
    One, two, three!
[09:56] ashi
    I did it!
[09:58] ashi
    Hooray! I win!
[10:03] ashi
    Darn it...
[10:04] snow
    Tanisu's been out for a really long time.
[10:07] snow
    I'm worried about him.
[10:10] ashi
    He left three hours ago, huh?
[10:12] ashi
    The supermarket's close by, isn't it?
[10:17] ai
    Serves him right!
[10:19] snow
    Do you think something happened to him?
[10:22] snow
    You all stay here. I'll find him.
[10:29] ashi
    I'll go, too.
[10:30] ai
    If he gets back, he'll just yell at you
     for leaving without permission.
[10:34] ashi
    We can't just sit here, though.
[10:39] sui
    I'm going, too.
[10:40] ai
    Hold it! We ain't done here yet!
[10:59] ai
    C'mon, let's play.
[11:07] tan
    Where am I?
[11:10] tan
    That's right. Long ago, when I'd get lost...
[11:13] tan
    No matter where I was,
    the others would find me.
[11:21] tan
    So that should happen again this time.
[11:29] tan
    We're not in the lab anymore.
[11:31] tan
    I need to work it out myself.
[11:42] ashi
    It's been a long time since we last
     went searching for Tani-chan.
[11:54] ashi
    He's around here, is he?
[12:10] snow
    I think we should turn back...
[12:12] ashi
    You really shouldn't bite me...
[12:17] ashi
    Oh, I told you not to!
[12:25] ashi
    Take care of your teeth!
[12:37] sui
    The dog's thinking, "I'll get you for this."
[12:41] ashi
    I knew you'd come!
[12:45] ai
    I-I was just out hunting...
    it's a total coincidence!
[12:54] sui
    I detect a presence.
[12:56] sui
    What?!
[12:56] sui
    Really?
[12:57] sui
    Where is it?
[13:05] sui
    I just wanna find him so
     I can laugh in his face.
[13:09] ashi
    Sui-chan. Could you take us
     to Tani-chan right now?
[13:17] sui
    Beneath this cliff.
[13:19] sui
    Tanisu is there.
[13:26] sui
    To find him, we'll need someone
    with extreme physical capabilities.
[13:34] sui
    Aisuri-neesan is the only
    one who could do it.
[13:37] sui
    We need you.
[13:43] ai
    You're all so darn sad.
[13:48] ai
    I'll find him in no time!
[13:55] snow
    Nicely done.
[13:59] sui
    Her simplicity makes it easy.
[14:24] ai
    He should be around here somewhere...
[14:41] ai
    Hey, Tanisu!
[14:44] tani
    Aisuri-neesan...
[14:52] ai
    You idiot.
[14:54] ai
    I'm hungry!
[14:55] ai
    You trying to starve me to death?!
[15:11] tan
    I'm sorry...
[15:24] ai
    Let's go.
[15:26] ai
    If we don't hurry, I'll have to eat you.
[15:29] tan
    But my leg...
[15:38] sui
    Cold.
[15:41] ai
    Here we go.
[15:44] ai
    Hey!
[15:45] ashi
    Welcome back!
[15:47] snow
    Welcome back.
[15:50] ashi
    Tani-chan, that was a very
    silly place for hide-and-seek!
[15:55] sui
    He was startled by a wild dog,
    ran away, and fell off the cliff.
[16:01] snow
    Tanisu, are you afraid of dogs?
[16:03] tani
    I'm not afraid of your dog form, Snow-niisan.
[16:06] tani
    Because you're nice.
[16:21] ai
    You shouldn't have gotten so high and mighty.
[16:23] ai
    Don't defy me again, okay?
[16:26] tan
    You're all really amazing.
[16:29] ai
    You bet your butt!
[16:31] tan
    Thank you, Aisuri-neesan.
[16:36] ai
    What the heck...
[16:43] ashi
    Hey, what are we going to do for dinner?
[16:45] tan
    Don't worry. I'll work it out.
[16:48] sui
    Cup ramen, huh?
[16:50] ashi
    Sounds great! Let's have it!
[16:54] tai
    I did a little improv with
    some things I bought today.
[16:59] tai
    Just slip your legs in like this...
[17:07] tai
    Now add a little makeup...
[17:10] tai
    Now you can go out without
    taking the medicine!
[17:15] ai
    Hey, not bad!
[17:16] ashi
    Tani-chan, you really are a genius!

    Yes! Let's do the next one!
[19:03] ---
    It's so simple, I think everyone wants it.
[19:06] ---
    But I'd like to turn invisible.

[19:08] ---
    Oh, I hear you. Turning invisible!
[19:13] ---
    What would you do if you were invisible?
[19:14] ---
    I'd play pranks.
[19:16] ---
    Play pranks?
[19:18] ---
    Now I really want to know what you'd do.
[19:19] ---
    Why?
[19:20] ---
    What would you do?
[19:21] ---
    Well, I'd do bad things.
[19:23] ---
    Bad things, huh?
[19:24] ---
    Oh, that's impressive.
[19:25] ---
    What kind of bad things? Name one.
[19:27] ---
    One bad thing would be,
[19:29] ---
    the minute you're about to eat a dessert
    you've been looking forward to,
[19:32] ---
    I'd make you think someone was calling you,
[19:34] ---
    then I'd gobble it down.
[19:36] ---
    That's cute.
[19:36] ---
    That's not as bad as I expect.
[19:40] ---
    I think I could do an incredible stage
    performance, so I'd like to try that.
[19:43] ---
    You'd turn invisible and then suddenly...
[19:45] ---
    Not a stagehand...
[19:47] ---
    Not a stagehand. An invisi-hand.
[19:48] ---
    An invisi-hand? Amazing!
[19:51] ---
    Amazing, amazing!
[19:53] ---
    I'd do it all manually.
    You could do so much stuff.
[19:56] ---
    Rotating the set and stuff.
[19:57] ---
    No one could see you.
[19:58] ---
    You could make things float and stuff!
[20:00] ---
    You'd suddenly have snow falling.
[20:02] ---
    You'd do that manually?
[20:03] ---
    Wouldn't a machine be better for that?
[20:06] ---
    Maybe!
[20:06] ---
    Second?
SIGN    If you were going to be modified, what power would you want?
[20:07] ---
    Second, let's see...
[20:10] ---
    Teleportation?
[20:12] ---
    Teleportation!
[20:13] ---
    Teleportation!
[20:14] ---
    Yes, that's right.
[20:15] ---
    You think of that, right?
[20:16] ---
    I'd sleep in as long as I could,
    then teleport to my next location,
[20:19] ---
    and sleep in the break room there.
[20:21] ---
    Strong.
[20:23] ---
    So strong.
[20:23] ---
    Going back to the "I want to sleep" theme.
[20:25] ---
    I want teleportation.
[20:27] ---
    Teleportation is nice.
[20:28] ---
    Everyone wants that, right?
[20:29] ---
    I do.
[20:29] ---
    I do.
[20:30] ---
    Being modified... but modifications.
SIGN    If you were going to be modified, what power would you want?
[20:32] ---
    I want this power:
[20:33] ---
    The ability to go inside a manga!
[20:36] ---
    It's what a boy would want.
[20:39] ---
    You seem really spontaneous.
[20:41] ---
    Kind of like an otaku.
[20:43] ---
    But I'd want to go inside a manga.
[20:46] ---
    Me, too.
[20:48] ---
    When I was in elementary school,
    ninja manga were popular.
[20:55] ---
    Naruto was popular.
[20:58] ---
    I really wanted to be a ninja.
[21:00] ---
    I'd love to go into that world,
[21:03] ---
    but I was in 3rd or 4th grade.
[21:06] ---
    I was starting to get
     those geeky delusions.
[21:09] ---
    For a while, I really thought I was a ninja.
[21:12] ---
    You really thought that?
[21:12] ---
    I thought that!
[21:15] ---
    During a class break, I thought,
     "I've got superpowers!"
[21:17] ---
    I was born in Hokkaido, and there
    were a lot of snowy mountains.
[21:21] ---
    Since I had superpowers,
    I thought I could climb them.
[21:25] ---
    I jumped down off a tall place, like bam!
[21:27] ---
    And I had this great landing,
    but I felt this crack in my leg.
[21:31] ---
    It hurt.
[21:33] ---
    I wanted everyone to made a big fuss,
    like, "Are you okay? Did it hurt?"
[21:37] ---
    I went to the nurse's office.
[21:38] ---
    When I arrived, they said,
    "What happened to you?!"
[21:41] ---
    I looked and saw it was really swollen.
[21:43] ---
    I was taken right to the hospital.
[21:45] ---
    I had to get a cast and
    couldn't go to school!
[21:48] ---
    Was it broken?
[21:48] ---
    The ligament was kind of...
[21:51] ---
    Yeah. It hurt.
[21:52] ---
    The next day, in Hokkaido, the roads freeze,
[21:57] ---
    and I had to walk on crutches.
[21:59] ---
    So I couldn't go to school
    all through winter break.
[22:01] ---
    No way!
[22:01] ---
    I couldn't do any studying during that time.
[22:03] ---
    I couldn't do ratios in math and stuff.
[22:06] ---
    Because of that, I thought it would
    be nice to go into a manga world.
[22:11] ---
    Then I could be a ninja.
[22:13] ---
    When you get to the ending
    of a manga that you love,
[22:18] ---
    and you want it to keep going,
[22:19] ---
    you could go inside and change the future.
[22:21] ---
    Keep it going!
[22:22] ---
    You don't want it to end.
[22:22] ---
    If I had the power to go into a manga...
[22:28] ---
    But of course, even if I went
    inside, I'd probably chicken out.
[22:32] ---
    I couldn't talk to my favorite characters.
[22:34] ---
    Oh, you'd be like a spectator.
[22:35] ---
    Yeah, a third party.
[22:36] ---
    I see!
[22:37] ---
    A total extra. An extra.
[22:39] ---
    I'm that type, too.
[22:41] ---
    We have something in common.
[22:43] ---
    You wouldn't necessarily
    get involved with them.
[22:45] ---
    Going in doesn't mean you
    become a protagonist, I think.
[22:50] ---
    I'd rather stir the pot, personally.
[22:51] ---
    Really?!
[22:52] ---
    I'd start trouble among
    the central characters.
[22:56] ---
    Wow! You're so enterprising!
[22:58] ---
    I'd like to try it.
[23:00] ---
    If you're going inside a manga,
    take advantage!
[23:03] ---
    You can't say those things in real life, so...
[23:06] ---
    Inside a manga you can say them.
[23:08] ---
    I see!
[23:10] ---
    That's right.
[23:10] ---
    We talked about abilities that we want.
[23:13] ---
    That's right.
