I think the first guy to freestyle was KIN.

What? From Mellow Yellow?
SIGN Shiho, 18 years old, Tokyo
[01:47] Kuroda
Hey.
[01:48] Kakihana
Ah, yes?
[01:49] Kuroda
What's that taxi driver's name?
[01:52] Kakihana
Huh? You mean Odokawa?
[01:56] Kuroda
Odokawa...
[01:57] Kakihana
That's his name.
[02:00] Kuroda
You know the missing high
school girl case in Nerima?
[02:03] Kakihana
Yes.
[02:04] Kuroda
Rumor has it she got into Odokawa's taxi.
[02:07] Kakihana
What?
[02:08] Kuroda
But we haven't heard anything
about the case since then, right?
[02:13] Kakihana
You're right.
[02:15] Kuroda
The investigation request was withdrawn.
[02:18] Kakihana
Huh? So they found her, then?
[02:20] Kuroda
No. Apparently they received
a message from her secondhand.
[02:23] Kakihana
That's great. She's all right, then.
[02:26] Kuroda
That said, I'm allegedly the reason
she ran away from home.
[02:29] Kakihana
What? What did you do?
[02:31] Kuroda
Could you investigate her whereabouts?
[02:34] Kakihana
What? You want me to do it?
[02:36] Kuroda
It's Don-chan's daughter.
[02:37] Kakihana
Whose daughter? I don't know
what you expect me to do.
[02:40] Kuroda
Later.
[02:41] Kakihana
Huh?
[02:42] Kakihana
Uh, yeah. Talk to you later.
[02:52] Kakihana
Huh? He was on the phone?!
[02:59] Dobu
Odokawa-kun, let's go for a drive.
[03:02] Odokawa
Sure thing. You'll pay your fare, won't you?
[03:07] Dobu
Maybe, if you give me
some useful information.
[03:14] Odokawa
What information?
[03:16] Odokawa
More importantly, that toy
is awfully distracting.
[03:19] Dobu
Is it a toy, or is it real?
[03:26] Kuroda
Hey.
[03:26] (Flashback) Dobu
Boss, what is it?
[03:28] Kuroda
What's that taxi driver's name?
[03:32] (Flashback) Dobu
You mean Odokawa?
[03:35] Kuroda
Odokawa...
[03:37] Dobu
What about him?
[03:39] (Flashback) Kuroda
You know the missing high
school girl case in Nerima?
[03:42] (Flashback) Dobu
Yes.
[03:44] Man B
Rumor has it she got into Odokawa's taxi.
[03:48] (Flashback) Kuroda
Boss, about that...
[03:50] Kuroda
But we haven't heard anything
about the case since then, right?
[03:55] Dobu
You're right.
[03:57] (Flashback) Kuroda
The investigation request was withdrawn.
[04:00] Dobu
I heard about that from the older Daimon.
[04:03] Dobu
He said they heard from the missing girl.
[04:04] (Flashback) Kuroda
No. Apparently they received
a message from her secondhand.
[04:08] Dobu
I see...
[04:11] (Flashback) Kuroda
That said, I'm allegedly the reason
she ran away from home.
[04:14] Dobu
What do you mean?
[04:15] (Flashback) Kuroda
Could you investigate her whereabouts?
[04:19] (Flashback) Dobu
Why do you care about a high
school girl from Nerima, boss?
[04:22] Kuroda
It's Don-chan's daughter.
[04:24] (Flashback) Dobu
What?!
[04:26] Kuroda
Later.
[04:29] (Flashback) Dobu
Bye.
[04:38] Dobu
Odokawa-kun, apparently you picked up
the missing high school girl from Nerima.
[04:42] Odokawa
Apparently. I handed over my dash
cam data to Big Daimon a while ago.
[04:47] Dobu
Yeah, I know. I have your data.
[04:49] Odokawa
Sounds like you guys are involved, then.
[04:51] Dobu
I have a request.
[04:53] Dobu
I need you to keep your mouth shut.
[04:56] Dobu
Also, I want your help with something.
[04:59] Odokawa
Big Daimon already told me
to keep my mouth shut.
[05:02] Odokawa
He said a wanted criminal armed with
a gun would kill me if I told the police.
[05:07] Odokawa
In fact, there's a wanted criminal armed
with a gun trying to kill me right now—
[05:10] Dobu
Not just the police. Don't tell anybody.
[05:12] Dobu
Tell 'em you lost your dash cam data.
[05:14] Odokawa
Don't tell anybody? Like who?
[05:16] Dobu
Everybody.
[05:19] Odokawa
So, what do you want help with?
[05:21] Dobu
If anyone shows up looking
for your dash cam data,
[05:24] Dobu
I want you to let me know.
[05:25] Odokawa
And if I refuse?
[05:28] Dobu
I'll kill you.
[05:39] Odokawa
Why are you so desperate
to find this girl, Dobu?
[05:42] Dobu
That ain't any of your damn business.
[05:44] Odokawa
I can't help you if I don't
know what's going on.
[05:47] Odokawa
Besides, without some information,
[05:50] Odokawa
I won't know what I'm not
supposed to tell whom.
[05:53] Dobu
Fine.
[05:56] Dobu
First, my boss is looking for the missing
high school girl from Nerima.
[06:00] Odokawa
Why?
[06:01] Dobu
Because she's the daughter of a classmate.
[06:03] Odokawa
What about the police?
[06:04] Dobu
Officially, the police suspect me.
[06:10] Odokawa
Suspect you? Aren't you
besties with the police?
[06:13] Dobu
Hey, you insult me. Just with Big Daimon.
[06:16] Odokawa
Really? Not Little Daimon?
[06:18] Dobu
Little Daimon's an idiot.
[06:20] Odokawa
So, you're not actually involved?
[06:23] Dobu
Nope. Swear to God, I'm not involved.
[06:27] Dobu
If anything, I was framed.
[06:31] Odokawa
Why do you have my dash cam data, then?
[06:34] Dobu
Don't interrogate me like
you're the police, Odokawa.
[06:37] Odokawa
Can't help you if I can't trust you.
[06:41] Dobu
Honestly, I thought you were connected
to the Nerima missing persons case.
[06:46] Dobu
Apparently you've been talking
to someone in your apartment.
[06:49] Dobu
At first, I thought I'd get my hands
on your dash cam data
[06:54] Dobu
so I could blackmail you with it.
[06:56] Odokawa
So you don't suspect me anymore, then.
[06:58] Dobu
Nah, I still think you might've done it.
[07:01] Dobu
The investigation request's
been withdrawn, though.
[07:05] Odokawa
Withdrawn? Then her family must
be satisfied with the situation.
[07:08] Dobu
They got word that she ran away
[07:09] Dobu
because of the relationship
between my boss and her dad,
[07:12] Dobu
so they withdrew the request.
[07:15] Dobu
They haven't accepted the situation.
[07:18] Odokawa
Do you have any idea who might be involved?
[07:22] Dobu
There's only one guy who
could've put her up to this.
[07:25] Dobu
A guy named Yano.
[07:26] Odkawa
Yano?
[07:29] Dobu
My junior.
[07:30] Odokawa
If he's your junior, go talk to him yourself.
[07:33] Dobu
My job is collecting payments for my boss.
[07:37] Dobu
There's not much point in
telling you about it, so I won't,
[07:41] Dobu
but it's about obligation or principle.
[07:43] Dobu
But Yano only thinks about
collecting more money than me.
[07:48] Dobu
He doesn't work for obligation or principle.
[07:50] Dobu
In other words, Yano doesn't like me.
[07:53] Odokawa
You're saying there's no point
in asking Yano directly.
[07:56] Dobu
Bingo.
[07:58] Dobu
So if someone comes to take
your dash cam data,
[08:01] Dobu
in all likelihood it'll be Yano
or one of his henchmen.
[08:05] Dobu
That's why I want your help.
[08:07] Odokawa
Why don't you tell all this to your boss?
[08:10] Dobu
I couldn't. I didn't tell him
that I have the dash cam data.
[08:14] Odokawa
Why?
[08:15] Dobu
Because Yano is always telling everyone
that I only do petty jobs.
[08:21] Dobu
It's reached the boss's ears, too.
[08:23] Odokawa
In other words, he's a show-off.
[08:25] Dobu
Yeah. I think Yano knew what he was doing.
[08:30] Odokawa
I get the picture.
[08:31] Odokawa
You don't want me to tell anyone
that you have my dash cam data
[08:35] Odokawa
because you don't want
your boss to find out.
[08:38] Odokawa
And if anyone comes looking for it,
you want me to let you know.
[08:42] Dobu
That's right. You're quick
on the uptake, Odokawa.
[08:46] Dobu
If Yano is involved
in the missing persons case,
[08:49] Dobu
then I can find evidence of that
and use it to bring him down.
[08:54] Odokawa
No, thanks.
[08:55] Dobu
What?!
[08:56] Odokawa
You're still a criminal.
[08:59] Odokawa
I'm not interested
in helping someone like that.
[09:01] Dobu
Even if I threaten to kill you?
[09:04] Odokawa
You can't kill anyone.
[09:07] Odokawa
You may be a small-time gangster,
but you've got your pride.
[09:13] Dobu
You asshole!
[09:15] Police
You, in the taxi. Pull over.
[09:19] Dobu
Get us out of here, or I'll shoot.
[09:22] Odokawa
If you shoot me, you'll just get arrested.
[09:26] Dobu
Don't say anything stupid.
[09:38] Odokawa
Damn it.
[09:43] Dobu
Which one is it? The older
or younger brother?
[09:55] Kenshiro
Is something the matter?
[09:59] Odokawa
Can't you tell? I'm being
robbed. He's got a gun.
[10:04] Kenshiro
Be quiet. You'll bother the neighbors.
[10:07] Odokawa
He's got a gun. Search him.
[10:08] Dobu
Something's wrong with this driver.
[10:11] Kenshiro
It certainly seems that way.
[10:12] Odokawa
How much is he paying you?
[10:13] Kenshiro
In any case, could you turn off
your emergency light? It's confusing.
[10:18] Kenshiro
This is Shinjuku 4 to Central.
[10:20] Kenshiro
Shinjuku 336 10-22...
[10:24] Koshiro
Hey, Bro. What was that about?
[10:26] Kenshiro
Ah, Little Bro. It was nothing.
[10:28] Kenshiro
His taxi broke down.
[10:29] Koshiro
Really, Bro? I heard something about a gun.
[10:33] Kenshiro
Listen, Little Bro. Think about it.
[10:35] Kenshiro
Can you believe anything a taxi driver says?
[10:39] Koshiro
You're right. Damn those taxi drivers!
[11:00] Dobu
Head to Shinjuku.
[11:08] Dobu
You turned on your taxi's
emergency light and kept me talking,
[11:12] Dobu
found a cop car, and provoked me
so I'd turn my gun on you.
[11:15] Dobu
You wanted the cops to see.
[11:18] Dobu
That was quite the risk you took.
[11:20] Dobu
What if I'd actually shot you?
[11:23] Odokawa
Whatever. I wouldn't mind dying.
[11:25] Dobu
You're not afraid to die?
[11:28] Dobu
Someone who's not afraid to die doesn't
need your weird sense of justice.
[11:31] Odokawa
I am afraid. Unbelievably so.
[11:35] Odokawa
But I'd rather die than get involved
in what sounds like a pain in the ass.
[11:39] Dobu
I get it, Odokawa-kun.
[11:42] Dobu
I understand that threatening you
won't get you to do what I want.
[11:46] Dobu
What motivates you? You don't
seem very interested in money.
[11:51] Dobu
I know, I'll hurt your friends.
Who should I hurt?
[11:57] Dobu
What's your friend's name? Kakihana?
[12:01] Odokawa
Kakihana, huh?
[12:02] Odokawa
He's probably better off dead, too.
[12:05] Dobu
You're so cold, Odokawa-kun.
[12:07] Dobu
You seemed a little shaken, though.
[12:09] Dobu
You're actually bluffing, aren't you?
[12:12] Dobu
Who should I choose?
[12:14] Dobu
Taeko.
[12:16] Dobu
Shirakawa...
[12:19] Dobu
So, that's your weakness.
[12:24] Odokawa
Why Shirakawa-san?
[12:33] Dobu
Sounds like we have a deal, then.
[12:36] Dobu
Thanks for your help.

SIGN Super Rare Dodo
[13:45] Shirakawa
You came.
[13:49] Odokawa
Do you have some business with me?
[13:52] Shirakawa
Is wanting to see you not
a good enough reason?
[14:02] Shirakawa
You know those fast-forwarded videos of
landscapes filmed on a fixed-point camera?
[14:07] Shirakawa
Watching those makes me feel so anxious.
[14:10] Shirakawa
The sun sets in the blink of an eye.
[14:12] Shirakawa
The stars move, and clouds drift by.
[14:15] Shirakawa
It forces us to confront the fact
that time marches on,
[14:17] Shirakawa
regardless of what we have to say about it.
[14:19] Odokawa
It kind of sounds like you're
being snide about my tardiness.
[14:22] Shirakawa
I don't believe there's such
a thing as wasted time.
[14:25] Shirakawa
But they say "time is money," you know?
[14:28] Odokawa
Why not take things slowly, then?
[14:30] Shirakawa
Try saying that again, but meaner this time.
[14:36] Odokawa
Why not enjoy a bit of sherry
and a fudge brownie
[14:39] Odokawa
while strolling along the West Coast?
[14:41] Shirakawa
Your snide remark has
a rather American quality to it.
[14:46] Odokawa
You don't want to be friends with me.
[14:49] Shirakawa
Why not?
[14:50] Odokawa
Because I've got some
yakuza-type guys after me.
[14:54] Odokawa
They know who my friends are.
[14:56] Odokawa
It's kind of dangerous.
[14:59] Shirakawa
I'll be fine. Despite how I look...
[15:04] Shirakawa
I used to practice capoeira.
[15:11] Odokawa
That was surprising. I thought
a Bollywood movie was about to start.
[15:17] Odokawa
What's capoeira?
[15:19] Shirakawa
A Brazilian martial art.
[15:20] Odokawa
Why?
[15:22] Shirakawa
At first, I was trying to lose weight.
[15:24] Shirakawa
Then I got interested in seeing how much
I could improve my queixada form.
[15:27] Shirakawa
Oh, a queixada is a kick to the chin. It's—
[15:30] Odokawa
That's not what I meant.
[15:32] Odokawa
Your makeshift capoeira won't
be enough to beat these guys.
[15:35] Shirakawa
That's obnoxious. How do you know
my martial arts skills are makeshift?
[15:39] Odokawa
If it was to lose weight, then it can't
be effective in a real fight.
[15:42] Odokawa
So it's makeshift.
[15:43] Shirakawa
It wouldn't upset you if someone
called you a makeshift taxi driver?
[15:46] Odokawa
Obviously I'd be upset. It's my job.
[15:49] Odokawa
I'm not calling you a makeshift nurse.
[15:51] Shirakawa
By the way, what does "makeshift" mean?
[15:53] Odokawa
You got upset when you
didn't know what it meant?
[15:55] Shirakawa
I understood more or less from the nuance.
[15:57] Shirakawa
Use a synonym that's easier to understand.
[15:59] Odokawa
It means "temporary substitute."
[16:01] Shirakawa
Who's a temporary substitute nurse?!
[16:02] Odokawa
I didn't say that,
[16:03] Odokawa
and I'm astonished that you got
upset for the same reason twice.
[16:09] Odokawa
Please, no more queixada!
[16:16] Odokawa
Anyway, it's dangerous for us
to be meeting like this.
[16:20] Odokawa
For you, that is.
[16:21] Shirakawa
It doesn't matter. I'm an adult.
[16:25] Shirakawa
I can protect myself.
[16:29] Odokawa
What's your goal?
[16:32] Shirakawa
For what?
[16:33] Odokawa
What do you gain from meeting
with me, Shirakawa-san?
[16:36] Shirakawa
Am I bothering you?
[16:38] Shirakawa
Would it bother you to occasionally
meet and chat like this
[16:43] Shirakawa
or exchange messages?
[16:46] Shirakawa
I find being around you
relaxing, Odokawa-san.
[17:02] Shirakawa
I'm working the day
shift today. I should go.
[17:05] Odokawa
I'll drive you there.
[17:07] Shirakawa
Oh, right. After all, you are a taxi driver.
[17:11] Odokawa
I won't run the meter.

[17:20] Baba
Let's get started. In this segment,
we talk to people around town
[17:23] Baba
and eat lunch with them.
[17:25] Baba
It's already our fourth episode, and
we've received absolutely no response.
[17:27] Baba
Is everything okay?
I'm actually kinda worried.
[17:29] Staff
Well, we're shooting all four at once.
[17:30] Baba
Oh, right. No wonder I'm not hungry.
[17:33] Staff
Explain where we are right now.
[17:42] Kakihana
Hey, Odokawa.
[17:44] Baba
Here we go. Hey, what's for lunch?
[17:48] Kakihana
What happened with Shirakawa-san after that?
[17:51] Odokawa
You're unusually annoying today.
[17:53] Kakihana
Has your affection for her grown?
[17:55] Odokawa
It's the size of Jupiter now.
[17:56] Kakihana
That's quite the growth.
[17:59] Kakihana
Love is both a painful and beautiful thing.
[18:04] Odokawa
Are you in love?
[18:05] Kakihana
I was pretty popular
in high school, remember?
[18:10] Odokawa
Yeah, you played baseball.
[18:12] Kakihana
But once you're an adult,
people have pretty high standards
[18:14] Kakihana
regarding your appearance
or work performance.
[18:18] Kakihana
As I've gotten older,
I'd started to give up on it.
[18:22] Kakihana
My spring's finally on the horizon, though.
[18:24] Odokawa
Really? That's great.
[18:27] Kakihana
I've mentioned this before,
but in the marriage marketplace,
[18:30] Kakihana
there's no demand for guys
with specs like ours.
[18:32] Odokawa
That's exactly it.
[18:34] Odokawa
Why is a 28-year-old nurse interested in me?
[18:37] Kakihana
It's that special feeling
that outshines your specs.
[18:41] Odokawa
I compared my feelings to Jupiter before,
[18:43] Odokawa
but I don't really understand
attraction or romance myself.
[18:48] Odokawa
I always thought they were concepts
that had nothing to do with me.
[18:53] Odokawa
In any case, I'm not confident.
[18:56] Kakihana
Before you know it, you're in love.
[18:59] Kakihana
That's just how it is.
[19:01] Odokawa
Don't lecture me on love. It's aggravating.
[19:05] Kakihana
You wanna see the girl I'm talking to?
SIGN Shiho, 18 years old, Tokyo
[19:10] Odokawa

She's still only 18.
[19:13] Kakihana
So far we've only exchanged messages,
but we get along great.
[19:17] Kakihana
We're supposed to meet up soon,
but she's busy with work.
[19:21] Odokawa
Did you meet her on a matchmaking site?
[19:24] Kakihana
That's right.
[19:26] Kakihana
I know what you're trying to say.
[19:28] Kakihana
You think she doesn't exist, don't you?
[19:32] Kakihana
Well, read it and weep.
SIGN Kakihana-san!! Good luck at work
[19:38] Kakihana
Ma'am, another helping.
[19:40] Odokawa
It's not that I doubt her
existence. It's just...
[19:46] Odokawa
Are you sure you're not being tricked?
[19:49] Kakihana
Are you jealous?
[19:51] Odokawa
Kakihana, I'm not saying
this out of jealousy.
[19:54] Odokawa
Think about it. You said so yourself.
[19:57] Odokawa
There's no demand for us
in the marriage marketplace.
[19:59] Kakihana
I'm telling you, it's the feeling—
[20:01] Odokawa
You've never even met her.
How can there be any feeling?
[20:03] Kakihana
I told you, we've been exchanging messages!
[20:06] Kakihana
Take a look at all of these!
[20:07] Odokawa
Let me see your profile.
[20:10] Odokawa

[21:17] Shirakawa
I can't get in touch with him.
[21:19] Shirakawa
What should I do, Odokawa-san?
[21:41] Kakihana
Shiho-chan?
[21:43] Ichimura
Kakihana-san, I've been wanting to see you.
[21:47] Kakihana
Sorry to keep you waiting.
[21:48] Kakihana
I was glued to my monitor at work.
[21:51] Kakihana
I rushed here in a taxi, but had
trouble finding this place.
[21:56] Ichimura
You're even more wonderful
than I thought. I'm relieved.
[22:01] Ichimura
You're all wet. Poor thing.
[22:04] Ichimura
Shall we get some tea someplace?
[22:07] Kakihana
Y-Y-Yeah. I know a place
that serves good Darjeeling,
[22:11] Kakihana
but I don't really know this area.
[22:13] Ichimura
There's a Doutor nearby. Let's go there.
[22:16] Kakihana
Huh? Okay.
[22:23] Kakihana
Thanks.

"Our story begins four years ago."
[23:37] Baba
"He was working for a game company—"
[23:38] Odokawa
Don't read that.
[23:39] Baba
What is this?
[23:40] Odokawa
It's an interview conducted by a writer.
[23:42] Baba
This doesn't belong at
an auspicious event like this.
[23:44] Odokawa
Anyway, I'm surprised you came,
Mr. Successful Comedian.
[23:47] Baba
Are you being mean on purpose?
I've got nothing in my schedule right now.
