[02:31] ---
    Please subscribe to my channel!
[02:33] ---
    Watch it! What are you doing?!
[02:36] ---
    Idiot! I'm in a hurry here!

    CHAPTER 1
[03:47] ---
    THE DAY YOKAI AWOKE
[03:55] ---
    Yesterday, at 3:20 PM, a giant forest
    suddenly appeared in Shibuya.

[04:01] ---
    Witnesses say people suddenly turned into
    trees, but we have no clear information.

[04:07] ---
    It seems people really turned into trees,
    but what is your professional opinion?

[04:13] ---
    It could be a chemical weapon.
[04:15] ---
    It must be aliens!
[04:17] ---
    It's likely a genetic abnormality
    caused by toxins.
[04:20] ---
    No it's not! It's because of yokai!
[04:26] ---
    Stop lying about the forest in Shibuya
    being because of yokai.
[04:29] ---
    There's no such thing as yokai.
[04:33] ---
    I'm not lying.
[04:35] ---
    You two brothers.
[04:39] ---
    Are you bullying him again?
[04:41] ---
    Oh crap, it's Big Mana!
[04:45] ---
    Show some respect!
[04:47] ---
    Souma!
[04:48] ---
    Why me?
[04:49] ---
    And I'm not that big... I don't think.
[04:52] ---
    Th-This is none of your business!
[04:55] ---
    Yes it is.
[04:57] ---
    He's my neighbor.
[04:59] ---
    Mana-chan.
[05:01] ---
    Are you okay? What's wrong?
[05:03] ---
    My grandma told me.
[05:05] ---
    A yokai that turned people to trees
    was sealed away centuries ago.
[05:10] ---
    It must have returned.
[05:14] ---
    There's no such thing as yokai, dummy!
[05:17] ---
    Yes there are! We just can't see them!
[05:20] ---
    Then show us.
[05:24] ---
    My grandma said so!
[05:25] ---
    She said if you put a letter
    in the Yokai Mailbox he'll come.
[05:30] ---
    Who?
[05:31] ---
    Kitaro.
[05:33] ---
    Kitaro?
[05:34] ---
    What the heck?
[05:35] ---
    Kitaro vanquishes yokai!
[05:38] ---
    Then try calling him.
[05:40] ---
    Do you even know where this
    Yokai Mailbox is?
[05:45] ---
    No, I don't.
[05:46] ---
    See? I knew it was a lie.
[05:50] ---
    Then I'll look for it for you.
[05:53] ---
    It's best to ask this sort of thing
    on the internet.
[05:59] ---
    I doubt anyone's going to answer, though.
[06:07] ---
    Someone did...
[06:07] ---
    dog_mana-san's Question
    Q: Where is the Yokai Mailbox?

[06:09] ---
    nya3_neko-san's Response
[06:12] ---
    Here we are.
[06:14] ---
    That must be it!
[06:23] ---
    So, you put a letter in that?
[06:25] ---
    Yeah.
[06:26] ---
    Then Kitaro will come with a "clop-clop".
[06:31] ---
    What do you mean, "clop-clop"?
[06:33] ---
    It's just "clop-clop"!
    I'm not sure what that is.
[06:36] ---
    Clop-clop-clop!
[06:39] ---
    Souma!
[06:40] ---
    I'll send a letter for you.
[06:43] ---
    So, why me?
[06:45] ---
    How do you write a letter again?
[06:48] ---
    "Dear Kitaro-san...
[06:51] ---
    The town's people are being turned
    into trees. Please help.
[06:56] ---
    Mana Inuyama."
[07:00] ---
    Hey, Mana, are you serious?!
[07:34] ---
    I put it in!
[07:35] ---
    You're gonna be cursed!
[07:38] ---
    What?!
[07:47] ---
    That jerk! Where did he go?!
[07:49] ---
    Thank you for believing me.
[07:57] ---
    It's not like I believed him.
[08:00] ---
    There's no way yokai exist
    in the 21st century.
[08:08] ---
    "A forest in Shibuya? LOL"
[08:28] ---
    Hey! Your kid brother was bullying
    Yuta-kun again, wasn't he?!
[08:32] ---
    It's not my business.
[08:34] ---
    Yes it is! You're the older one!
[08:52] ---
    Kitaro will come with a "clop-clop".
[09:12] ---
    Wh-Who are you?!
[09:17] ---
    I'm GeGeGe no Kitaro.
[09:19] ---
    Are you Mami?
[09:22] ---
    It's Mana! Mana Inuyama!
[09:26] ---
    Are you the young miss
    who sent us the letter?
[09:33] ---
    Wh-What was that? A-A-A talking eyeball?!
[09:37] ---
    No way, no way! That's impossible!
[09:40] ---
    Sorry to startle you. This is my dad.
[09:46] ---
    No way, no way, no way! Impossible!
[09:48] ---
    A dad who's just an eyeball can't be real!
[09:52] ---
    Don't be so surprised.
[09:54] ---
    I'm Kitaro's father.
    I'm called Daddy Eyeball.
[10:03] ---
    Hey, that tickles!
[10:05] ---
    Real? A special effect? Or am I dreaming?
[10:11] ---
    Young miss,
    the world you see isn't all there is.
[10:15] ---
    There is also a world you can't see.
[10:19] ---
    We received a letter saying people are
    being turned into trees. Is that true?
[10:25] ---
    Look at this.
[10:27] ---
    What's that?
[10:29] ---
    It's a smartphone.
[10:31] ---
    TVs have certainly gotten small.
[10:33] ---
    It's not a TV. You can make calls
    and even see out of cameras in Shibuya.
[10:38] ---
    Y-You can see Shibuya
    from something this small?!
[10:44] ---
    What a convenient age it's become.
[10:46] ---
    Just look!
[10:49] ---
    Th-These are vampires!
[10:52] ---
    Dracula?
[10:53] ---
    Not that type. The tree kind.
[10:56] ---
    Vampire Trees?
[10:56] ---
    VAMPIRE
[10:57] ---
    VAMPIRE TREE
[10:58] ---
    Exactly. Trees that grow
    off the nutrition of human blood.
[11:01] ---
    Why is something like that in Shibuya...
[11:04] ---
    Wait, if you know,
    then let's go to Shibuya!
[11:10] ---
    They're Vampire Trees all right.
[11:13] ---
    But, Dad, wasn't the yokai that controls
    Vampire Trees sealed away centuries ago?
[11:20] ---
    Uh, Mana-chan was it?
[11:22] ---
    That "smash" seems rather useful.
[11:25] ---
    It's called a smartphone. Wanna try?
[11:34] ---
    Swipe there.
[11:36] ---
    Oh, you swipe by dragging...
[11:39] ---
    So, I do this here?
[11:41] ---
    Kitaro, this is amazing!
[11:43] ---
    It sure is, Dad.
[11:45] ---
    Kitaro, this must be it.
[11:49] ---
    Found a weird seal so I pulled it off!!!
    by Charatomi

[11:56] ---
    Wheee! Waaay!
[12:01] ---
    -"Smash it!"
    -"Yeah. LOL"
[12:02] ---
    "It was him!"
[12:03] ---
    That fool!
    He removed the seal of the Nobiagari!
[12:07] ---
    The Nobiagari?
[12:09] ---
    It's a yokai.
[12:10] ---
    It plants Vampire Tree seeds in people.
[12:13] ---
    That's what turned everyone into trees?
[12:16] ---
    From here, it's our job. Go home.
[12:19] ---
    Wait! I sent the letter!
[12:22] ---
    I can come, can't I?
[12:25] ---
    You'll be in danger.
[12:26] ---
    So?
[12:28] ---
    I warned you once.
[12:30] ---
    I've been warned!
[12:36] ---
    What is this place?
[12:37] ---
    It looks like an underground reservoir
    that stores rainwater from the city.
[12:43] ---
    You're human and you don't even know that?
[12:46] ---
    I knew that!
[12:48] ---
    Up ahead is where that fool removed
    the Nobiagari's seal.
[13:08] ---
    NOBIAGARI
[13:10] ---
    That's the Nobiagari! I'm sure of it!
[13:18] ---
    There's nothing there.
[13:40] ---
    Oh no! That's a Vampire Tree seed!
[13:48] ---
    Get a grip, Kitaro!
[13:50] ---
    Y-Yes.
[13:52] ---
    Hey! Are you okay?!
[13:56] ---
    Leave me... alone.
[14:01] ---
    I can't do that.
[14:06] ---
    Are you really all right?
[14:17] ---
    Hey! Hang in there!
[14:27] ---
    Kitaro!
[14:28] ---
    Dad!
[14:33] ---
    Kitaro!
[14:39] ---
    VAMPIRE TREE AND THE NOBIAGARI
[14:42] ---
    KITARO AND BUBBLES
[14:44] ---
    -"I was sleeping."
    -"Sorry."
[14:45] ---
    "Smack!"
[14:51] ---
    Kitaro... Look what happened to you.
[14:59] ---
    Look!
[15:05] ---
    He's alive. Kitaro's alive!
[15:12] ---
    Hey, Kitaro sacrificed himself for me,
    didn't he?
[15:17] ---
    That's right.
[15:22] ---
    There's nothing there.
[15:28] ---
    I couldn't see anything, but it was there.
    The Nobiagari.
[15:36] ---
    Listen, Mana-chan...
[15:38] ---
    Humans think their world is all there is.
[15:42] ---
    But what you see isn't everything.
[15:47] ---
    They're invisible, but there.
[15:49] ---
    And there are some bad ones among them.
[15:53] ---
    They're drawn to the darkness
    in people's hearts.
[15:57] ---
    Understand?
[15:59] ---
    No, I don't.
[16:01] ---
    But...
[16:04] ---
    I want to.
[16:29] ---
    "Mysterious trees appear
    in Ikebukuro too!!!"

[16:30] ---
    Tell me...
[16:32] ---
    Why do you and Kitaro help humans?
[16:37] ---
    Well,
[16:38] ---
    when Kitaro was a baby, a young man
    named Mizuki helped him.
[16:44] ---
    So it's a way of repaying the debt.
[16:58] ---
    Kitaro!
[17:01] ---
    Dad, sorry to worry you.
[17:04] ---
    No, I trusted you were all right.
[17:09] ---
    A lot of people were turned into Vampire
    Trees while I couldn't move, right?
[17:14] ---
    Yes, that's right.
[17:16] ---
    Let's go, Dad.
[17:22] ---
    Don't you get it?
    The Nobiagari is dangerous.
[17:26] ---
    But, I want to go with you.
[17:29] ---
    There must be something I can do!
[17:38] ---
    Whatever.
[17:40] ---
    I won't save you again.
[17:42] ---
    I know.
[17:46] ---
    It looks like construction's stopped
    because of the Nobiagari.
[17:50] ---
    Is the Nobiagari here?
[17:52] ---
    No, it doesn't seem like it.
[17:56] ---
    It's back!
[17:57] ---
    What? Static electricity?
[17:59] ---
    It's called the Yokai Antenna. It stands
    when Kitaro senses yokai activity.
[18:04] ---
    Like a smartphone.
[18:05] ---
    Hide!
[18:21] ---
    I can see something!
    Is that the Nobiagari?!
[18:26] ---
    Mana-chan,
    you've begun to believe in yokai.
[18:31] ---
    That's why you're beginning to see them.
[18:54] ---
    Remote Controlled Geta!
[18:57] ---
    Dammit!
[19:02] ---
    Hair Needles!
[19:16] ---
    Ouch!
[19:18] ---
    Kitaro!
[19:35] ---
    What coincidental power!
[19:43] ---
    That's it!
[20:10] ---
    Your greatest weapon
    is your greatest weakness!
[20:14] ---
    Spirit Hair Chanchanko!
[20:20] ---
    You won't get away!
[20:27] ---
    It's the Nobiagari!
[20:30] ---
    Get away from me!
[20:32] ---
    Hair Needles!
[20:38] ---
    Remote Controlled Geta!
[20:50] ---
    Finger Guns!
[21:09] ---
    Now the people turned into Vampire Trees
    should return to normal.
[21:27] ---
    Kitaro, you did it!
[21:30] ---
    I-I can't breathe.
[21:33] ---
    You beat that huge thing all by yourself!
[21:37] ---
    It's not a matter of simply
    beating or losing.
[21:41] ---
    Yokai are...
[22:06] ---
    Oeoeo

    Perhaps the truth lies
    In what you can't see

[22:11] ---
    mienaimono ni koso shinjitsu ga

[22:16] ---
    Do you believe that?
    If you close your eyes

    Dad, 50,000 people suddenly disappeared,
[23:10] ---
    but it's not our concern, right?
[23:12] ---
    Next time on GeGeGe no Kitaro
[23:14] ---
    "Terror! Miage-Nyudo"
[23:17] ---
    The door to the unseen world opens...
[23:20] ---
    
[23:22] ---
