No. Nobody.

Hey!

CHAPTER 58
**[03:08] ---**
THE HAN-GYOJIN'S STRANGE *KAMABOKO* TALE
**[03:23] ---**
Excuse me...
**[03:25] ---**
I'd like to ask about...
**[03:28] ---**
the accidents at sea...
**[03:39] ---**
Everyone's terrified.
**[03:48] ---**
KAMABOKO
**[03:54] ---**
What a horrible sound.
**[04:16] ---**
KAMABOKO
**[04:26] ---**
The water's great.
**[04:29] ---**
I should bring some home for Dad.
**[04:32] ---**
Whoops. I'm not here for leisure.
**[04:38] ---**
Four ships have run into
similar accidents around here.
**[04:43] ---**
According to one who barely survived...
**[04:46] ---**
A-A monster!
**[04:48] ---**
A monster did it!
**[04:53] ---**
It might be *yokai*-related.
**[04:56] ---**
At this rate...
**[05:05] ---**
Ah, I'm all warmed up.
**[05:08] ---**
Oh! Kitaro-chan, what a coincidence!
**[05:13] ---**
You...
**[05:16] ---**
You're not involved with
these accidents are you?
**[05:21] ---**
Oh come on. I'm just a traveler.
**[05:24] ---**
Driven by the winds of nostalgia, I'm
hiking to see the unspoilt land of Japan.
**[05:33] ---**
Do you know anything?
**[05:35] ---**
Well, kind of...
**[05:41] ---**
Why are you taking me here?
**[05:47] ---**
Is there something here?
**[05:49] ---**
Now, now, now...
**[05:50] ---**
Hmm. A little to the right?
**[05:52] ---**
Okay, two steps right!
**[05:56] ---**
Good! Right there!
**[05:57] ---**
The perfect spot!
**[05:59] ---**
Hey...
**[06:06] ---**
What is this?!
**[06:07] ---**
Don't you know? You're so uneducated.
**[06:11] ---**
It's called a giant squid.
**[06:16] ---**
Well done, Rat Man!
**[06:21] ---**
HAN-GYOJIN
**[06:24] ---**
Han-Gyojin?!
**[06:26] ---**
My business plan was about to be ruined.
**[06:30] ---**
"Our"! "Our" business plan, right?
**[06:35] ---**
Rat Man! What are you up to?!
**[06:40] ---**
Now, now. Calm down.
**[06:42] ---**
You're going to be
helping that business plan now.
**[06:47] ---**
What?
**[06:50] ---**
*Han-gyo gyon gyon... Ka!*
**[07:08] ---**
This is...?
**[07:17] ---**
Wh-What is this?!
**[07:23] ---**
Observe! The power of Deep-Sea Witchcraft!
**[07:26] ---**
Hey, Han-Gyojin!
**[07:28] ---**
Turn me back!
**[07:30] ---**
Sadly, I don't have such abilities.
**[07:33] ---**
It's your Deep-Sea Witchcraft!
**[07:35] ---**
How did you know?!
**[07:37] ---**
You just said so.
**[07:38] ---**
Whoops. I spoke out loud.
**[07:41] ---**
Come on. There's no need to play dumb.
**[07:43] ---**
True.
**[07:44] ---**
Okay, Kitaro, fetch me 100 tons of fish!
**[07:48] ---**
100 tons?!
**[07:50] ---**
I'm in the business of selling *kamaboko*.
**[07:54] ---**
I had my pet giant squid gather
the fish needed to make it,
**[07:59] ---**
but it's rather dim-witted.
**[08:03] ---**
It started sinking ships
without my asking it to.
**[08:07] ---**
Things were getting out of hand.
**[08:10] ---**
That's when I thought,
**[08:12] ---**
I'd use my Deep-Sea Witchcraft
to make someone smart be its brains.
**[08:18] ---**
You're an ocean-dwelling *yokai*.
What do you need money for?
**[08:26] ---**
That's not your concern.
**[08:28] ---**
Now let's make a deal.
**[08:31] ---**
Gather 100 tons, no, 200 tons of fish,
and I'll turn you back.
**[08:36] ---**
Otherwise, you can be a squid forever.
**[08:41] ---**
I'll do it. 200 tons, right?
**[08:44] ---**
It's a deal then!
**[08:46] ---**
SORRY, SOLD OUT
**[08:52] ---**
SOLD OUT
**[08:59] ---**
Isn't that enough?
**[09:01] ---**
No way. It isn't even half.
**[09:05] ---**
Really?
**[09:07] ---**
Get some bigger ones.
**[09:14] ---**
You're my slave forever.
**[09:17] ---**
SOLD OUT
**[09:18] ---**
RESTOCKED
**[09:19] ---**
SOLD OUT
**[09:25] ---**
How many days has it been?
**[09:28] ---**
How many more fish do I have to catch?
**[09:33] ---**
I wonder if everyone in the forest's okay.
**[09:40] ---**
What?
**[09:55] ---**
Kitaro?
**[10:01] ---**
Dad...
**[10:08] ---**
Ooh. You're in bad shape.
**[10:12] ---**
You're useless now. Oh well.
**[10:15] ---**
*Han-gyo gyon gyon gyon gyon gyon gyon...*
**[10:21] ---**
Deep-Sea Witchcraft!
**[10:35] ---**
GETTING ALONG WITH A WHALE
**[10:38] ---**
HAN-GYOJIN
**[10:40] ---**
-*"Bottom's up!"*
-*"Let's do it!"*
**[10:41] ---**
*"Cheers!!"*
**[10:42] ---**
LIMITED FLAVOR
**[10:43] ---**
KITARO *KAMABOKO*
**[10:44] ---**
ONLY 100 AVAILABLE
100,000 YEN EACH
**[10:46] ---**
Hey, Han-Gyojin!
**[10:48] ---**
What's the meaning of this?!
**[10:52] ---**
Don't waste a single scrap.
**[10:55] ---**
That's being eco-friendly.
**[11:01] ---**
How could you?!
**[11:04] ---**
On... On...
**[11:06] ---**
Online sales was my department!
**[11:08] ---**
Huh? That?
**[11:12] ---**
I've learned all I need to about
online marketing.
**[11:16] ---**
From now on I'll be handling everything.
**[11:20] ---**
Ratty, you're fired.
**[11:44] ---**
Oh no!
**[11:49] ---**
What?! Kitaro's been
turned into a *kamaboko*?
**[11:53] ---**
Wh-What do we do?! What do we do?!
**[11:56] ---**
Calm down, Catchick!
**[11:58] ---**
If we can get all of him,
we might be able to restore him!
**[12:04] ---**
Buy up those *kamaboko* right away!
**[12:07] ---**
They're 100,000 yen apiece!
**[12:09] ---**
How much do you think
buying all of them will cost?!
**[12:14] ---**
One... Ten... Hundred...
**[12:23] ---**
Ten million yen...
**[12:27] ---**
BANK BOOK
**[12:27] ---**
I'll pay for it.
**[12:31] ---**
PURCHASE
**[12:34] ---**
Stocks, real estate,
Chobitcoin, tax havens...
**[12:39] ---**
Asset management is basic knowledge
for modern elders.
**[12:43] ---**
C-Could you teach me some time?!
**[12:57] ---**
What an ordeal.
**[13:01] ---**
The Yokai Hospital?
**[13:03] ---**
Indeed.
**[13:04] ---**
I believe Kitaro could be restored there.
**[13:09] ---**
There's a skilled doctor who's said to
even be able to resurrect the dead.
**[13:15] ---**
However, the operating fee is
unbelievably high.
**[13:20] ---**
High? How many tens of thousands?
**[13:24] ---**
About 100 million.
**[13:26] ---**
No way!
**[13:27] ---**
Oh man...
**[13:29] ---**
I doubt even Sand Witch has that much...
**[13:33] ---**
BANK BOOK
**[13:34] ---**
I do.
**[13:43] ---**
HAN-GYOJIN
**[13:45] ---**
*Alkaline Yuriko of the popular idol group,
The Batteries,*
**[13:49] ---**
*announced her engagement on her blog.*
**[13:51] ---**
*Her partner is the investor,
Tsubasa Yokoizawa.*
**[13:54] ---**
*Their age difference of 26 years
is drawing attention.*
**[14:01] ---**
Unlike in the *yokai* world, in the human
world, those with money are important.
**[14:09] ---**
I may only be able to use
silly witchcraft,
**[14:12] ---**
but in this human world,
I can reach the top!
**[14:28] ---**
KAMABOKO
**[14:33] ---**
Hooray for the human world!
**[14:36] ---**
Han-Gyo.
**[14:36] ---**
PRESIDENTIAL SEAL
**[14:40] ---**
Master, there's someone here
for the maid job interview.
**[14:44] ---**
Bring them.
**[14:45] ---**
Yes, sir.
**[14:49] ---**
One million a month.
But, one speck of dust and you're fired.
**[14:53] ---**
Appear in three seconds when summoned
or you're fired.
**[14:57] ---**
No days off,
be it for a fever or death in the family.
**[15:16] ---**
I'm gonna catch you!
**[15:28] ---**
Um, is something the matter?
**[15:33] ---**
Marry me.
**[15:34] ---**
Excuse me?
**[15:36] ---**
I've got money!
**[15:37] ---**
You must be joking.
**[15:39] ---**
Not enough?
**[15:41] ---**
Still not enough?
**[15:43] ---**
Boom! And boom!
**[15:45] ---**
Baboom and boom!
**[15:50] ---**
I appreciate the offer, but...
**[15:53] ---**
Why?!
**[15:55] ---**
I'm a human and you're a *yokai*.
We can't be married.
**[16:09] ---**
You wish to become a human?
**[16:16] ---**
Yeah!
**[16:17] ---**
I hear you can even bring back the dead
if the money's right.
**[16:23] ---**
I've got more than enough money!
**[16:26] ---**
It's irreversible.
**[16:29] ---**
Once made human,
you can't become a *yokai* again.
**[16:35] ---**
Are you sure?
**[16:39] ---**
Dammit! Just get it over with!
**[16:53] ---**
I'm home!
**[16:55] ---**
Oh my!
**[16:57] ---**
What happened to you?
**[17:00] ---**
Now there's nothing to stand between us.
**[17:05] ---**
For me...?!
**[17:08] ---**
Now marry me! Right now!
**[17:25] ---**
Wh-What's so funny?
**[17:29] ---**
"Once made human,
you can't become a *yokai* again."
**[17:34] ---**
Huh?! Where did you hear that?!
**[17:43] ---**
Y-You!
**[17:45] ---**
I turned you into a *kamaboko*!
**[17:48] ---**
I was restored at the Yokai Hospital
you're familiar with.
**[17:53] ---**
Curse you!
Maximum Deep-Sea Witchcraft!
**[17:58] ---**
*Han-gyo gyon gyon...* Boom!
**[18:03] ---**
Oh no! I'm not a *yokai* anymore!
**[18:10] ---**
Wait, let's talk this over!
I'm just a helpless human now!
**[18:17] ---**
No bullying the weak!
**[18:42] ---**
Screw you! I've got no attachment
to the *yokai* world!
**[18:46] ---**
I'm gonna enjoy my entertaining life
in this human world!
**[18:54] ---**
But will it be that easy?
**[18:59] ---**
Seriously?
**[19:01] ---**
Disgusting!
**[19:03] ---**
*A famous* kamaboko *business is*
*under heavy fire.*
**[19:06] ---**
*With photos posted by
a worker to social media,*
**[19:10] ---**
*people are questioning
the factory's management system.*
**[19:15] ---**
I'm from Mitsuboshi Bank.
I'd like to talk about your loan.
**[19:21] ---**
*"I feel sick."*
**[19:21] ---**
Wh-What?! You're cancelling my loan?
**[19:22] ---**
-*"Return my money!"*
-*"Go under."*
**[19:25] ---**
How dare you!
You said, "borrow as much as you like!"
**[19:29] ---**
You only talk nice when it's convenient!
**[19:33] ---**
You want me to hang myself?!
**[19:38] ---**
You can hang yourself
after you pay us back.
**[19:43] ---**
This... This can't be happening!
**[19:50] ---**
*Alkaline Yuriko of the popular idol group,
The Batteries,*
**[19:53] ---**
*announced on her blog
she was breaking off her engagement.*
**[19:57] ---**
*With her partner, Tsubasa Yokoizawa,*
**[19:59] ---**
*just having bombed in the* kamaboko *market,*
*the timing of this announcement is...*
**[20:30] ---**
I want to be a *yokai* again!
**[20:35] ---**
Didn't you love a world
where money is everything?
**[20:39] ---**
You can struggle to survive in
that cruel world.
**[20:45] ---**
As a human.
**[20:55] ---**
Thank you, Sand Witch.
**[20:58] ---**
We're sorry for using up
so much of your savings this time.
**[21:04] ---**
It's fine. When you have it it's useful,
when not, you get by.
**[21:09] ---**
That's all that money is.
**[21:13] ---**
Where's Rat Man?
**[21:15] ---**
He's not here.
**[21:17] ---**
Honestly! Where is he hiding?
**[21:22] ---**
Despite all she says,
she's still concerned for Rat Man.
**[21:28] ---**
She probably just wants to hunt him.
**[21:34] ---**
I can't go back for a while.
**[21:37] ---**
I better fish to fight off the hunger
until things blow over.
**[21:44] ---**
Someone's already here.
**[21:46] ---**
So, catching much here?
**[21:48] ---**
It's not bad.
**[22:14] ---**
