    I just suddenly
    felt like seeing you, Kitaro.
[00:19] ---
    Was it inconvenient?
[00:21] ---
    Not really.

    I'm not waiting until I get home.

    NEW YEAR'S MAN-EATING FABLE
    KASHA
[02:45] ---
    WISHING TO PASS MY ENTRANCE EXAM
[02:50] ---
    May it be a world where humans
    andyokai can live together in harmony.
[02:56] ---
    What did you pray for, Mana?
[02:56] ---
    FORTUNES
[02:58] ---
    It's a secret.
[03:00] ---
    Yes! Best Luck!
[03:01] ---
    I got Best Luck, too!
[03:03] ---
    Oh! Me too!
[03:05] ---
    I bet shrines only put Best Luck
    in the fortune boxes at New Year's.
[03:24] ---
    Damn this is heavy.
[03:34] ---
    Heave ho...
[03:40] ---
    What?
[03:47] ---
    So, did you see the suspect's face?
[03:50] ---
    Yes, but it probably
    wasn't a human but a yok...
[03:53] ---
    -Huh?!
    -Er...!
[03:55] ---
    Uh... Yoka...n is my favorite snack.
    I love sweet stuff.
[04:00] ---
    -Huh?
    -I've got it.
[04:03] ---
    A nearby hospital sent in a report.
[04:05] ---
    It looks like the body was
    stolen from there.
[04:08] ---
    Hmm. What did the suspect intend to do
    by stealing a corpse?
[04:15] ---
    That was probably the Kasha's doing.
[04:18] ---
    The Kasha?
[04:20] ---
    "Kasha" uses the characters for
    "fire" and "handcart."
[04:20] ---
    KASHA
[04:22] ---
    Why does he steal dead bodies?
[04:24] ---
    He eats them.
    He loves to eat corpses and mochi.
[04:29] ---
    He e-eats them?!
[04:31] ---
    Kasha is a yokai that has
    existed since long ago.
[04:34] ---
    He used to steal bodies from funerals
    and crematories, causing havoc.
[04:44] ---
    Give Mommy back!
[04:49] ---
    Havoc?
[04:51] ---
    But what I saw was a haggard old yokai.
[04:55] ---
    He couldn't carry the corpse
    and was dragging it.
[04:59] ---
    I haven't heard about
    the Kasha appearing recently.
[05:04] ---
    Maybe he's gotten old and weak in the legs
    and can't carry corpses anymore.
[05:10] ---
    I smell an opportunity.
[05:19] ---
    I'm tired of eating mochi all the time.
[05:23] ---
    I want to eat a human corpse.
[05:26] ---
    Yo, are you Kasha?
[05:30] ---
    Who are you?
[05:31] ---
    I'm BiBiBi no Rat Man.
[05:34] ---
    I hear you failed to steal a dead body.
[05:37] ---
    Yes. Someone saw me dragging it.
[05:40] ---
    In the old days I could leap from
    rooftop to rooftop.
[05:44] ---
    But now I'm old and just look at me.
[05:47] ---
    I've got a proposition.
[05:49] ---
    What?
[05:50] ---
    Wanna team up with me?
[05:53] ---
    Huh?
[05:56] ---
    THE BATTERIES YURIKO ALKALINE

[05:58] ---
    Ain't this a pretty girl.
[06:00] ---
    Rub, rub, rub... Hm?
[06:04] ---
    -Oh you Rat-chan.
    -That's... Rat Man?!
[06:07] ---
    What's he doin' with
    a pretty young girl like that?
[06:13] ---
    Here, here.
[06:17] ---
    Thank you!
[06:22] ---
    That lucky guy.
[06:24] ---
    How'd he get all that money?
[06:27] ---
    Whoops. That's a work call.
[06:30] ---
    See you later.
[06:31] ---
    Okay.
[06:32] ---
    Yes, yes. Hello, this is BiBiBi Co.
[06:36] ---
    Let's see...
[06:38] ---
    Ah, this is the place.
[06:41] ---
    So, where's the thing
    you wanna get rid of?
[06:46] ---
    She's in the back room.
[06:48] ---
    It's my mother.
[06:50] ---
    What, did you bump her off?
[06:53] ---
    Of course not.
[06:55] ---
    She's been bedridden for a while now,
    and this morning she was dead.
[07:00] ---
    And you're not having a funeral?
[07:03] ---
    I'd like to avoid a notice of death
    and funeral to pretend she's still alive.
[07:09] ---
    That way I can continue to collect
    her pension.
[07:14] ---
    I see.
[07:16] ---
    You're ignoring all your mother's done to
    raise you and wanna dispose of her body.
[07:22] ---
    What is this world coming to.
[07:28] ---
    But, I like what this world is coming to.
[07:31] ---
    Huh? Then...
[07:32] ---
    It'll cost five months pension.
[07:34] ---
    Or rather it would,
    but I'm not a monster.
[07:37] ---
    I'll cut you a deal for only three months.
[07:40] ---
    Thank you so much. I'll get it right now.
[07:45] ---
    Rat Man.
[07:48] ---
    Sliiiip.
[07:49] ---
    R-R-Rollo Cloth!
[07:51] ---
    What the hell are ya doin'?
[07:53] ---
    You heard everything already, didn't you?
[07:55] ---
    What are ya doin' with the body?
[07:59] ---
    I'm feeding it to the feeble old Kasha.
[08:01] ---
    I'm just acting as a mediator.
[08:04] ---
    The hungry Kasha gets to eat a corpse,
    I get lots of money...
[08:09] ---
    It's a three-way gain. Win-win-win.
[08:12] ---
    Everybody's happy.
[08:14] ---
    What's a yokai doin' gettin' involved
    with human crimes?
[08:17] ---
    -I'm tellin' Kitaro...
    -I'll introduce you to a cute girl.
[08:20] ---
    Wh-Wh-What are ya talkin' about?!
    I-I ain't about to be bribed!
[08:24] ---
    She's a cute 20-year-old girl.
[08:26] ---
    I ain't lettin' ya talk me into it!
[08:29] ---
    But just for reference,
    what famous person does that girl look--
[08:34] ---
    What are ya doin'?!
[08:35] ---
    What is this thing?
[08:36] ---
    Nice. Hold him right there.
[08:38] ---
    H-Hey whoa, whoa, whoa! Whoa, hey!
    What, what are...
[08:42] ---
    Wh-... How cruel!
[08:44] ---
    He'll regenerate if we let him get wet.
[08:48] ---
    Oh, another job request.
[08:49] ---
    Later. Hold on and I'll drop by
    to pick up the body.
[08:53] ---
    Okay.
[08:54] ---
    What? You got drunk and killed someone
    with your car?
[08:58] ---
    P-Please! If nobody finds the body,
    then I can sweep this under the rug!
[09:03] ---
    Oh very well.
[09:04] ---
    But it'll be expensive, Mr. President.
[09:08] ---
    What? A marital spat?
[09:10] ---
    You hit your husband and killed him?
[09:13] ---
    A girl you killed?
[09:14] ---
    You want to keep a finger
    and get rid of the rest?
[09:17] ---
    Man, you're a real basket case.
[09:20] ---
    Ah, well, well. It's always a pleasure,
    mister boss.
[09:24] ---
    How many should I dispose of today?
[09:26] ---
    BIBIBI CO.
[09:29] ---
    I'm stuffed.
[09:35] ---
    I've brought more bodies.
[09:37] ---
    Again? I may like eating them,
    but I can't eat that many at once.
[09:42] ---
    I'm full for today.
[09:44] ---
    Don't blame me.
[09:45] ---
    People keep calling me asking to
    take care of corpses.
[09:51] ---
    Eat up!
[09:53] ---
    I said I can't eat any more today.
[09:56] ---
    Besides, the bodies you bring
    lack a certain flavor.
[10:00] ---
    They need more spice.
[10:02] ---
    Spice?
[10:03] ---
    That's right. The grief of the family
    a body is stolen from.
[10:07] ---
    That becomes the perfect spice
    to bring out the flavor of a corpse.
[10:11] ---
    Give Mommy back!
[10:16] ---
    The bodies you bring don't have that.
[10:19] ---
    Stop being picky, you feeble old yokai!
[10:22] ---
    True, this body has grown weary.
[10:26] ---
    So I was thinking...
[10:28] ---
    Wh-What?
[10:30] ---
    I've grown fond of this body,
    but you can't beat age.
[10:43] ---
    Huh?! I'm in front of myself?
[10:45] ---
    Wh-Wh-What's going on here?!
[10:48] ---
    I've switched our bodies.
[10:51] ---
    All the corpses you've fed me has
    restored my yokai power.
[10:56] ---
    Now, if you'll excuse me. It's been a gas.
[11:01] ---
    Pee-ew!
[11:07] ---
    Bye.
[11:10] ---
    HAPPY NEW YEAR
[11:13] ---
    KASHA
[11:15] ---
    -"Bottom's up!"
    -"Cheers!!"
[11:16] ---
    "You're out!!"
[11:19] ---
    Man, I went to the trouble of stealing
    this body, but it's already pretty cruddy.
[11:25] ---
    Plus it smells.
[11:27] ---
    And itches!
[11:28] ---
    I don't want to live in this body forever.
[11:32] ---
    I need to find a better one.
[11:35] ---
    Rat Man, what are you doing here?
[11:40] ---
    Not like I really care or anything.
[11:44] ---
    I-I'm not doing anything.
[11:49] ---
    There's something different about you.
[11:52] ---
    What do you mean? I'm the same
    BiBiBi no Rat Man-sama as always.
[11:57] ---
    I'm not sure. I don't feel the urge
    to hunt you like I usually do.
[12:02] ---
    You're scaring me with that
    "urge to hunt" thing.
[12:05] ---
    But, that animal instinct
    is pretty impressive. Good job.
[12:10] ---
    Wh-...
[12:15] ---
    What is this?! No!
[12:17] ---
    No! I-It itches!
[12:20] ---
    It smells! It itches!
[12:22] ---
    It smells!
[12:24] ---
    Eww! It smells!
[12:32] ---
    It's so light!
[12:35] ---
    This seems to have impressive
    fighting power, too.
[12:39] ---
    This body is easy to move in,
    it's graceful, and wonderful.
[12:44] ---
    Hmm. But these chilly legs are
    a bit of a problem.
[12:50] ---
    I suppose I prefer a male body after all.
[12:54] ---
    Ah, I know.
[12:56] ---
    I'm borrowing the shower!
    I-Itchy, itchy, itchy, itchy...!
[13:04] ---
    Ahh, bliss.
[13:08] ---
    I'm back!
[13:14] ---
    Hey! Don't look! Don't look, you pervert!
[13:17] ---
    Forget that pervert stuff. We got trouble.
[13:20] ---
    I know! I'm stuck in Rat Man's body here!
    What is this?!
[13:26] ---
    Kitaro.
[13:28] ---
    Are you in?
[13:30] ---
    What's wrong, Catchick?
[13:34] ---
    It's nothing really.
[13:39] ---
    I just suddenly
    felt like seeing you, Kitaro.
[13:43] ---
    Was it inconvenient?
[13:45] ---
    Not really.
[13:47] ---
    What's this? Catchick is acting
    very assertive today.
[13:52] ---
    I'm too embarrassed to watch!
[13:58] ---
    Did you eat something funny?
[14:01] ---
    Oh you tease.
[14:03] ---
    If you're being like that, I'll do this.
[14:14] ---
    What is this?
[14:15] ---
    Kitaro!
[14:17] ---
    That's the Kasha!
[14:21] ---
    Kitaro, I'll be taking this body!
[14:26] ---
    Whoa! Look out!
[14:29] ---
    Are you okay, Rat Man? I mean, Catchick.
[14:33] ---
    What is with this useless body?
[14:45] ---
    This is great!
    I feel a thousand years younger!
[14:49] ---
    FUNERAL HALL
[14:51] ---
    Toko!
[14:52] ---
    Mommy!
[15:05] ---
    I'll be taking this!
[15:07] ---
    Toko!
[15:08] ---
    Mommy!
[15:10] ---
    Mommy!
[15:13] ---
    "Mommy", huh?
[15:26] ---
    It's been a while since I've had
    a spicy, fresh corpse.
[15:30] ---
    I'm not waiting until I get home.
[15:33] ---
    Kitaro, what are you doing?
[15:35] ---
    Uh, er, well...
[15:37] ---
    Mana!
[15:39] ---
    Watch out!
[15:41] ---
    That's not me!
[15:44] ---
    Cat-san?
[15:45] ---
    Mana, come here quickly!
[15:47] ---
    You're both acting strange.
[15:50] ---
    Mana, watch out! That's the Kasha!
[15:53] ---
    Huh?! The Kasha?
[15:54] ---
    No, that's the Kasha!
[15:57] ---
    And I'm Kitaro.
[15:58] ---
    I'm Catchick.
[16:01] ---
    What? Everything's all off.
    What's going on?!
[16:05] ---
    Don't be fooled, Mana!
    I'm the real Kitaro!
[16:08] ---
    Look at my eye!
[16:11] ---
    Oh!
[16:12] ---
    Then answer this. What fortune did I get
    at the shrine this New Year's?
[16:16] ---
    -If you're really Kitaro, you'd know.
    -Huh?
[16:20] ---
    Your fortune?
[16:24] ---
    Fortunes at New Year's are
    usually all Best Luck.

[16:28] ---
    It was Best Luck!
[16:33] ---
    Kitaro.
[16:37] ---
    I'm sorry!
[16:40] ---
    Ouch... Why?
[16:42] ---
    I never told Kitaro what fortune I got.
[16:46] ---
    No fair...
[16:50] ---
    Cat-san!
[16:51] ---
    Mana!
[16:52] ---
    Thank goodness.
[16:57] ---
    Oh no!
[16:59] ---
    I was so close to eating
    a nice, spicy corpse.
[17:03] ---
    I better get out of here.
[17:06] ---
    You... You stole Kitaro's body.
[17:10] ---
    What did you do with my body!
[17:13] ---
    Give it back!
[17:14] ---
    Ouch! Ow, ow, ow, ow.
    What was that for?
[17:18] ---
    Kasha!
[17:20] ---
    Damn. Kitaro.
[17:23] ---
    Ouch!
[17:25] ---
    Ow, I think I broke my leg.
[17:29] ---
    Give me back my body!
[17:31] ---
    -Give it back!
    -Get away from me! Ow!
[17:36] ---
    That's Catchick in there...
[17:38] ---
    Give it up, Kasha. Give me back my body!
[17:41] ---
    If you want it, come and get it!
[17:53] ---
    Hair Needles!
[18:18] ---
    Kitaro!
[18:26] ---
    What are you doing?!
[18:29] ---
    Daddy Eyeball-san! Ow!
[18:31] ---
    D-Dad...
[18:33] ---
    Let go of me!
[18:44] ---
    I bet you'd like to be with your son,
    so I'll mix you in mochi and eat you.
[18:53] ---
    Heave ho!
[18:55] ---
    Heave ho!
[18:58] ---
    Heave ho!
[19:03] ---
    This is called Mochi Murder.
[19:19] ---
    What is this?!
[19:26] ---
    Help me!
[19:38] ---
    I can't breathe...
[19:52] ---
    Lose the battle to win the war.
[19:55] ---
    Oof.
[19:57] ---
    This is Reverse Mochi Murder.
[20:19] ---
    Kitaro! Thank goodness you're all right!
[20:21] ---
    Dad, thank you.
[20:25] ---
    I'm back in my body at last.
[20:28] ---
    My leg really hurts!
[20:43] ---
    Dammit! Where did he run off to?!
[20:46] ---
    But, with that body, he won't last long.
[20:50] ---
    Indeed.
[20:52] ---
    But...
[20:55] ---
    Yes?
[20:58] ---
    You're Keisuke Inudo.
[21:00] ---
    We'd like to ask you about pension fraud.
[21:06] ---
    -Damn you, Inudo! Open up!
    -Inudo!
[21:07] ---
    Fine. Kick it in!
[21:14] ---
    Ow, ow, ow...
[21:18] ---
    Ouch...
[21:31] ---
    If the Kasha hides in a human's body
    before his body perishes...
[21:37] ---
    If that happens,
    there's nothing we can do.
[21:42] ---
    That stupid boss. I wish he'd die.
[21:44] ---
    -I wanna wreck all these guys!
    -I wanna kill my wife and marry Yukina.
[21:47] ---
    I wish that useless girl'd disappear.
[21:49] ---
    -I hate my husband.
    -If only she was gone...
[21:51] ---
    That old man is really in the way.
[21:53] ---
    Dammit! Die!
[22:00] ---
    I wanna dance
