SIGN    ["It Takes a Bit of Courage to     Enter a Street Vendor's Stand"] SIGN     [07:07] Man     Welcome! [07:09] Gin     Man, it's freezing today, old man. [07:12] Man     It sure is. [07:14] Man     It might snow soon. [07:17] Man     They keep talking about global warming, [07:19] Man     but Earth's only getting     warmer on the outside. [07:23] Gin     Got that right. SIGN    [Note: "Warm action" refers to getting     some more money in his wallet.] [07:24] Gin     When will I get some     warm action going on? [07:28] Man     Warm yourself up with     some of this, big guy. [07:31] Gin     Sorry, but I'm looking     for something sweeter. [07:36] Man     Sweeter? [07:37] Gin     Sorry, but could you mix a little     coffee milk or strawberry milk in there? [07:41] Gin     Can you fix one up? [07:43] Man     Absolutely, but you have     unique tastes, big guy. [07:48] Gin     You know what they say. [07:49] Gin     Something sweet helps     when you're exhausted. [07:53] Man     That's right, big guy.     You look awfully tired. [07:56] Man     And your hair's all white. [07:58] Man     Did something happen? [08:00] Gin     I was born this way. [08:02] Man     If you've got something on your     mind, why not let it out here? [08:07] Gin     Huh? [08:07] Man     Men are vain creatures. [08:10] Man     They never complain, whether     at work or at home. [08:13] Man     Some things can only     be told to a stranger. [08:16] Man     Men need a place like this. [08:21] Gin     There really isn't     anything on my mind... [08:25] Gin     Besides, the audience is watching. [08:27] Man     Don't worry. This place protects     the privacy of its customers. [08:32] Man     Like how they can't even see your face. [08:35] Gin     Ah, I see. [08:36] Man     Yeah. [08:37] Man     It'll be like this the entire episode,     so nobody will know who you are. [08:42] Man     Feel free to say anything. [08:44] Gin     Ah, I see. [08:45] Man     By the way, the practice here [08:47] Man     is to pretend you don't recognize     each other if you're acquaintances. [08:52] Man     First: Complain all you want. [08:56] Man     Second: Come alone. [08:58] Man     Third: Pretend you don't recognize     each other if you're acquaintances. [09:02] Man     Fourth: Forget everything you hear     in this place and do not tell a soul. [09:07] Man     A place where you can     feel free to complain. [09:11] Man     That's what this stall is for. [09:14] Man     Come on, big guy. Don't think too     much and just spill your guts today. [09:20] Man     Brush off all the dirt     from this sad world [09:22] ---     so you can feel refreshed     tomorrow, yeah? [09:25] Man     Okay, coffee milk with shochu. [09:27] Gin     Complain, you say? [09:29] Gin     Actually, I'm complaining all the time,     so I don't really have anything... [09:32] Hijikata     'Sup. [09:33] Man     Hey, welcome! [09:35] Man     Ah, sorry, big guy. [09:36] Man     Could you slide over a bit? [09:38] Man     Give this handsome samurai a seat. [09:41] Hijikata     Ah, sorry. [09:42] Gin     Not at all. Go ahead. [09:45] Hijikata     Whew, I can finally warm myself up. [09:48] Gin     It's freezing out there. [09:49] Gin     Came out of nowhere, really. [09:51] Gin     It wasn't this bad yesterday. [09:54] Hijikata     Indeed. [09:55] Hijikata     We're pretty much guaranteed     to have snow... [10:01] Man     Eh? Why did the two of you     suddenly stop talking? [10:07] Man     Don't tell me... [10:11] Gin     Ah, no. It's nothing. [10:14] Hijikata     Hey, pops. [10:15] Hijikata     Give me hot sake. [10:16] Hijikata     [Note: Fish cakes and tofu fritters     are popular items in an Oden hotpot.] [10:16] Hijikata     And a fish cake, a tofu     fritter, and an egg. [10:18] Man     Gotcha. [10:18] Hijikata     And the usual... [10:21] Man     Gotcha. Mayonnaise, right? [10:25] Gin     Uh, do you come here often? [10:28] Hijikata     Huh? [10:29] Gin     Well, you just asked for the usual... [10:32] Gin     Do you have a lot of complaining to do? [10:35] Hijikata     Nah, only once in a while. [10:37] Hijikata     Only been here two or three times, yeah. [10:39] Man     You've been here at least fifty times. [10:41] Hijikata     Uh, pops? [10:42] Hijikata     Could you butt out? Please stop. [10:44] Gin     Huh? You're here today     to complain again? [10:46] Hijikata     No, I'm just here for a drink today. [10:49] Man     Is it that gorilla boss of yours again? [10:52] Hijikata     Pops, keep your mouth shut. [10:54] Hijikata     Stop it! [10:55] Gin     Huh, your boss is a gorilla? [10:58] Gin     Sounds hard... No wonder     you want to complain. [11:01] Hijikata     No, you've got it wrong. [11:03] Hijikata     Though he's a gorilla. [11:05] Hijikata     It's not like I'm badmouthing     him all the time. [11:08] Man     That's right. Instead of badmouthing     him all the time, you just go... [11:11] Man     "Die!" usually. [11:14] Hijikata     Pops! [11:15] Hijikata     Die! [11:16] Hijikata     You die! [11:17] Man     No, listen to me, big guy. [11:19] Man     The mayo samurai's boss is     always pestering this woman. [11:24] Man     And this guy has to clean     up afterwards every time. [11:28] Gin     I see. That sounds rough. [11:31] Gin     Sounds rough, but "Die!"     was a little shocking. [11:34] Hijikata     No, when I say die... [11:37] Hijikata     It's like a figure of speech... [11:40] Hijikata     Like an expression of love... [11:43] Hijikata     If I really wanted him to die,     I wouldn't tell him to die. [11:49] Hijikata     Hey, you understand, right? [11:51] Hijikata     Pops, raise the sign     again. One more time. [11:56] Hijikata     You understand, right? [11:58] Hijikata     Look carefully. Look carefully     at the fourth item! [12:01] Hijikata     Stare long and hard! [12:02] Gin     I got it. I got it. I got it. [12:03] Gin     Don't worry. Don't worry. [12:06] Hijikata     You understand, right? [12:08] Hijikata     Hold on, big guy. [12:09] Hijikata     Look carefully at the third item. [12:10] Kondo     Hey, pops! I'm back! [12:15] Man     Ah, Gori-san. It's been a long time. [12:18] Man     What a troublemaker. [12:19] Man     You're drunk already, aren't you? [12:21] Kondo     Well, it was freezing out there today. [12:24] Kondo     So I had a drink over there. [12:26] Kondo     But now is when I get serious! [12:28] Kondo     Oh, we've got ourselves a bunch     of complainers here today! [12:31] Kondo     This looks fun! [12:37] Kondo     Ah? [12:38] Man     Eh? What's wrong, Gori-san,     Mayo Samurai-san? [12:42] Man     You look pale. [12:44] Man     Come on, what are you doing? [12:45] Man     Slide over. Slide over. [12:47] Man     Gori-san's got a big body,     so make plenty of room. [12:51] Man     Well, we were just enjoying ourselves. [12:55] Man     Listening to the mayo samurai's story. [12:57] Hijikata     No, no, pops. [12:58] Hijikata     Can't we drop that subject already? [13:00] Hijikata     Can't we drop it already? [13:01] Kondo     Huh? What? What story? [13:03] Man     Fact is, this guy's boss is a gori- [13:06] Hijikata     Ah! What?! Is that UFO?! [13:09] Kondo     Uh, you realize that UFOs are flying     around all the time in this world. [13:12] Man     And that gorilla's always     pestering this woman and [13:15] ---     he thinks the gorilla should just die- [13:17] Hijikata     Look! [13:18] Hijikata     That's definitely a UFO! [13:19] Hijikata     Hey, let's go check it out! [13:22] Kondo     Heh... [13:24] Kondo     That kinda sounds rough... [13:27] Kondo     Your boss is a gorilla, huh? [13:29] Kondo     What a coincidence. [13:30] Kondo     I have the same nickname as that person. [13:32] Man     Ah, that's right, Gori-san. [13:36] Man     Huh? [13:36] Man     Gori-san, are you crying? [13:40] Kondo     I'm not! [13:42] Kondo     Not at all! Just got     something in my eye! [13:45] Kondo     I have allergies! [13:46] Hijikata     Uh, can I leave now? [13:49] Man     Eh? [13:50] Hijikata     I'm feeling sick after     drinking too much. [13:53] Man     Hold on, Mayo Samurai-san. [13:56] Man     Listen to what Gori-san has to say. [13:59] Man     This gorilla's completely     different from yours. [14:02] Kondo     No, no, no, no, no! It's okay! [14:04] Kondo     They don't need to hear my story! [14:05] Man     This gorilla's in a relationship     with a hostess girl right now. [14:10] Kondo     Ah, wait! [14:11] Man     And this gorilla is always     watching over her as a bodyguard. [14:16] Gin     Wow... That's impressive. [14:17] Gin     He's her bodyguard... [14:19] Gin     A bodyguard that hides     under eaves and stuff... [14:22] Man     Great man, right? [14:24] Man     You won't find anyone else     like this these days. [14:26] Gin     You won't. [14:27] Gin     You won't find a bodyguard like that. [14:29] Gin     That wouldn't be called a bodyguard. [14:31] Man     But even after everything     Gori-san has done, [14:35] ---     this woman hasn't let him do... [14:37] Kondo     Ah! Isn't that Kazuo Umezu?! SIGN    [Note: Kazuo Umezu is considered the     godfather of Japanese horror manga.] [14:40] Man     He's going as a customer,     so you'd think she could [14:43] ---     show her appreciation by letting him... [14:45] Kondo     Look! [14:46] Kondo     That has to be Kazuo Umezu! [14:48] Kondo     Let's all go and do     the famous hand sign! SIGN    [Note: "Guwashi!" is a handsign used in     the manga "Makoto-chan" by Kazuo Umezu.] [14:50] Man     Don't you find this woman pathetic? [14:53] Man     She's a terrible match     for Gori-san here. [14:57] Man     I keep telling him to break up with her, [15:01] Man     but he's such a nice guy. [15:03] Tae     Good evening. [15:04] Man     Ah, welcome, Pony-chan. SIGN    [Note: Nicknamed that     after her ponytail.] [15:08] Man     Er? Do you have the night off? [15:10] Tae     Yes, I was just stopping by     on my way back from shopping. [15:13] Tae     Um, I made too many omelets, [15:17] Tae     so I thought I might offer my     appreciation for imposing all the time. [15:19] Man     Ah, ah... [15:21] Man     Thanks as always, Pony-chan... [15:28] Tae     Um... [15:28] Man     Ah! Have a seat. Have a seat. [15:31] Man     Come on, men! [15:32] Man     Slide over! [15:33] Man     We've finally got a woman here. [15:38] Man     Did you hear what we were     talking about, Pony-chan? [15:41] Tae     No, I didn't hear a thing. [15:42] Man     Ah, isn't that great, Gori-san? [15:44] Man     You didn't lose your chance. [15:46] Man     Why not switch over to this lady? [15:48] Man     She's a good girl. [15:52] Man     Huh? [15:53] Man     What's wrong, everyone? [15:55] Man     You're all pale as ghosts. [15:58] Man     Gori-san... [15:59] Man     Huh? [16:00] Man     Gori-san's foaming at the mouth. [16:02] Tae     My, I wonder what's wrong. [16:04] Tae     Are you okay? [16:05] Man     Huh? Something's growing     out of his back? [16:08] Tae     Onion? It's a green onion. [16:10] Man     Green onion growing from his back... [16:12] Man     Or no, more than growing,     it's burrowing in! [16:16] Hijikata     Gori-san! [16:17] Man     This is terrible! [16:19] Tae     It must be a phantom killer. [16:20] Tae     The work of a phantom killer. [16:22] Tae     How terrifying... [16:23] Hijikata     I've never heard of a killer that     stabs people with green onions! [16:26] Gin     This must be the work of a real monster. [16:29] Gin     To harden a sprig of green onion to such     a degree and stab without being noticed... [16:33] Gin     They must be an enhancer     type of nen power. SIGN     [16:36] Man     I should probably close up soon. [16:39] Tae     Don't worry. [16:41] Tae     The target's been     eliminated, so the killer [16:43] ---     won't return to the scene of the crime. [16:45] Tae     Come, let's drink. [16:47] Hijikata     Pops, I'm taking Gori-san     to the hospital! [16:49] Hijikata     I'm off then! [16:51] Man     Sorry about this, Mayo Samurai-san. [16:53] Gin     Hey! Wait! [16:55] Gin     You're going to leave me alone here?! [16:56] Gin     Leave me alone in a cage     with an enraged monster?! [17:00] Tae     What are you talking about? [17:02] Gin     N-No, I was worried about Gori-san, [17:05] ---     so I was thinking about tagging along... [17:07] Tae     But they're already gone. [17:09] Gin     That was fast! [17:10] Gin     All the way over there in no time! [17:12] Tae     Just forget about it. [17:14] Tae     Why not have a drink with me? [17:17] Man     Oh, Pony-chan? [17:19] Man     You prefer this guy over Gori-san? [17:23] Tae     I'll pour the sake for you. [17:25] Man     That's nice. Quite a pretty picture. [17:27] Man     You two look great together. [17:32] Gin     You think? [17:33] Tae     Do you come to this place often? [17:36] Gin     No, this is my first time here. [17:39] Gin     Uh, does P-Pony-ch... [17:41] Gin     Does Pony-sama come     here to complain often? [17:45] Man     It's been this long I'd say. [17:46] Gin     Ah, five times. [17:48] Gin     That's more than what I was expecting... [17:50] Man     She's been coming here for five years. [17:52] Gin     Holy cow! [17:53] Gin     How much pent-up hate does she have?! [17:55] Gin     How much complaining has she done?! [17:58] Man     The first time was when she came along [17:59] ---     with her late father long ago, [18:01] ---     who often came here to complain. [18:05] Gin     A bona-fide whinery! [18:07] Gin     A whinery specialist! [18:08] Man     She's been through a lot, though     she may not look that way. [18:11] Man     She lost her parents when she was young [18:13] Man     and she's watched over her little     brother by herself this whole time. [18:17] Man     That little brother is the problem. [18:20] Man     Most of her complaining these days     is about that little brother. [18:23] Gin     Ah, he must be an undependable     little brother. [18:27] Gin     I can already picture it. [18:29] Gin     Glasses and that whole package. [18:31] Man     Oh, the problem isn't with her brother [18:33] ---     but with the people around him. [18:36] Man     Her brother seems to have     joined a bad bunch of people. [18:39] Man     Pony-chan, what was it about     that permanently white-haired, [18:42] ---     always broke, and irresponsible... [18:44] Tae     Smegma Samurai. [18:46] Man     Ah, that's it. [18:47] Man     Smeggy Sammy. [18:48] Gin     Uh, is there really a     need to abbreviate it? [18:50] Gin     Isn't that a little too cruel? [18:52] Man     Her brother's gotten     weird ever since he [18:56] ---     started working for Smeggy Sammy. [18:59] Man     Tissues all over the place in his room. [19:03] Man     Washing his underwear by     himself in the morning. [19:06] Man     He didn't used to be that way. [19:09] Gin     That's got nothing to     do with Smeggy Sammy. [19:11] Gin     That's a part of nature. [19:13] Tae     Oh? Really? [19:14] Tae     What kind of nature would this be? [19:16] Gin     Well, I'm sure that Smeggy Sammy     is working hard in his own way. [19:20] Gin     The fact that the brother follows     him when he has no money [19:23] Gin     shows how much he cares     for the brother... [19:26] Tae     What could you possibly     know about Smeggy Sammy? [19:28] Gin     I know more than you do! [19:30] Gin     I understand Smeggy Sammy 100%! [19:33] Man     Well, she keeps complaining     about how she can't [19:36] ---     do anything about Smeggy Sammy these days. [19:39] Man     Well, it might be considered     plotting instead of complaining. [19:42] Gin     What do you mean by plotting? [19:44] Gin     That sounds really scary... [19:46] Man     Well, he seems to be very skillful, [19:49] ---     so she has to create her own opening. [19:51] Man     Like letting him drink until     he's completely smashed. [19:54] Gin     Hey! [19:55] Gin     What are you two plotting?! [19:56] Gin     What are you going to     do to Smeggy Sammy?! [19:58] Tae     Oh, the green onion I bought is gone. [20:01] Tae     Excuse me, I need to go buy another one. [20:04] Gin     She just went to procure a weapon! [20:06] Gin     It was her! [20:08] Gin     She's going to leave a green onion     sticking out of Smeggy Sammy's back! [20:11] Gin     O-Old man, I just remembered     something I have to take care of. [20:14] Gin     I'll leave the money here. [20:15] Man     Ah, hold on, big guy. [20:18] ---     What? [20:19] Man     I have something to tell you. [20:22] Man     I've been listening to people     complain for decades. [20:25] Man     I've heard thousands, tens     of thousands of complaints. [20:30] Man     Badmouthing people, problems at     work, stuff that gets you down. [20:34] Man     But I was able to bear     it all for decades. [20:40] Man     That's because there's love     behind every complaint. [20:43] Man     Why won't things go my way when     I'm working so hard at my job? [20:48] Man     That's how it was with     those other guys, right? [20:50] Man     Complaints are just an expression of     love when something doesn't go your way. [20:56] Man     Like a form of bragging. [21:00] Man     You should understand what     I'm trying to say, big guy. [21:03] Man     No, Smegma Samurai. [21:06] Man     Take good care of Pony-chan. [21:15] Tae     Oh? He already closed. [21:18] Gin     Y-Yeah, something came up. [21:23] Tae     I see. [21:26] Gin     Wanna get a drink? [21:28] Tae     Huh? [21:29] Gin     I'm saying that if you still     wanna drink, I'll tag along. [21:34] Tae     Are you sure? [21:39] Tae     You may have to listen to     my complaints until morning. [21:45] Gin     That's fine. [21:54] Gin     Since I understand the true     meaning of a complaint. [22:02] Kondo     Wait! [22:03] Kondo     I won't forgive you for     holding hands with Pony-chan! [22:06] Hijikata     Gori-san! Don't force yourself! [22:08] Hijikata     The green onion's still in your back! [22:17] Gin     Who was that? [22:18] ---      SIGN    The second movie will be released in 2013!!     Sorachi Hideaki will be writing a completely new story [23:51] ---     The second movie will     be released in 2013.
