    It's o-bon vacation for the Hinata family
    and the Keroro Platoon.
[01:36] ---
    It seems they're all going to
    Grandma Akina's house this year.
[01:42] ---
    I'm home, Mom!
[01:44] ---
    Grandma! We're back!
[01:48] ---
    My, my, you're all here?
[01:51] ---
    Thank you for coming.
[01:53] ---
    Admiral! I brought all of
    the Keroro troops this year,
[01:57] ---
    so thank you in advance
    for your hospitality, ma'am!
[01:59] ---
    Okay, okay.
[02:03] ---
    Oh, this is unusual. This year,
    even Sergeant Major Kululu has come?
[02:07] ---
    I thought I could use some fresh air
    in the country once in a while.
[02:12] ---
    Gero gero! Admiral!
[02:15] ---
    What are these weird eggplant
    and cucumber with legs?
[02:18] ---
    Oh, we call those "spirit horses."
[02:22] ---
    They carry the spirits of our
    ancestors home for o-bon.
[02:27] ---
    Our ancestors ride the cucumber horse,
[02:29] ---
    and the eggplant cow carries their luggage.
[02:32] ---
    It's a custom of Japan's o-bon.
[02:35] ---
    I see.
[02:37] ---
    So that's what it is.
[02:41] ---
    Oh my. Maybe a hungry
    little dog lost its way.
[02:55] ---
    The Hinata Family's Homecoming, Sir!
[03:03] ---
    Wow. These are photos of the Hinata family?
[03:06] ---
    That's right. They're all our ancestors.
[03:09] ---
    Say, Grandma, if the ancestors came back,
[03:13] ---
    who would you most want to meet?
[03:16] ---
    Good question. There are many
    of them, but most of all,
[03:20] ---
    I suppose I would like
    to meet my grandmother.
[03:23] ---
    Your grandmother?
[03:24] ---
    Yes.
[03:25] ---
    She passed away when I was still young.
[03:29] ---
    Grandma's grandma...
[03:31] ---
    That sounds strange.
[03:33] ---
    I've become old enough
    to be called "Grandma,"
[03:37] ---
    but to me,
[03:39] ---
    Grandma will always be "Grandma."
[03:45] ---
    What do you think, Private Tamama?
[03:47] ---
    I used plenty of eggplants
    and cucumbers for Ryu-san!
[03:51] ---
    Ah! I cannot see it, but it is great
    that you can, Mr. Sergeant!
[03:56] ---
    Dumbos! What are you doing
    goofing around?!
[03:58] ---
    The reason we came along for
    the Hinata family's homecoming
[04:02] ---
    is to do survival training!
[04:17] ---
    I see.
[04:19] ---
    So that's what it is.
[04:24] ---
    I feel refreshed.
[04:35] ---
    Natsumi!
[04:36] ---
    What's wrong, Natsumi?!
[04:39] ---
    I saw a giant slug over there!
[04:42] ---
    It was this big, munching on an eggplant!
[04:48] ---
    Don't tell me the stupid frog
     is behind this?!
[04:51] ---
    H-How rude!
[04:53] ---
    I would never do something like that
[04:55] ---
    at the admiral's house!
[04:57] ---
    Then maybe...
[05:00] ---
    ...it's an Unidentified
    Mysterious Animal, a UMA!
[05:05] ---
    Nothing here...
[05:07] ---
    Maybe Sis's eyes were playing tricks on her.
[05:09] ---
    Lady Natsumi is quite the scaredy-cat
    when it comes to those things.
[05:13] ---
    It was probably just
    a neighbor's dog, or...
[05:15] ---
    Gero?!
[05:19] ---
    H-Honorable father?!
[05:21] ---
    What are you doing here?!
[05:24] ---
    Your father, Sarge?
[05:25] ---
    He kind of looks angry.
[05:28] ---
    Gero...
[05:29] ---
    Maybe he's irritated over the lack
    of progress of the Pekopon invasion.
[05:32] ---
    But to just show up without
    any advance notice?
[05:42] ---
    Wow!
[05:44] ---
    Is this a Keronian ghost?
[05:52] ---
    What?! A vaulting horse?!
[05:54] ---
    W-What is this?!
[05:58] ---
    I do not know,
[05:59] ---
    but I'll beat the crap outta it!
[06:07] ---
    W-What was that?
[06:09] ---
    Maybe an ancestor that came home
    for o-bon was playing a prank.
[06:19] ---
    Well, Kero-chan,
[06:21] ---
    we're going to launch our lanterns.
[06:23] ---
    Watch the house.
[06:25] ---
    Roger, ma'am!
[06:33] ---
    What does "launching lanterns" mean?
[06:36] ---
    As I recall, they float
    paper lanterns down a river,
[06:38] ---
    symbolizing a sending-off of
    the spirits of their ancestors.
[06:41] ---
    The spirits of their ancestors...
[06:43] ---
    Then what we saw really was a prank
    played by an ancestral spirit?
[06:48] ---
    No.
[06:50] ---
    Ghosts don't have solid forms.
[06:53] ---
    I detected a strange reaction,
[06:55] ---
    which is why I accompanied you to the
    country this year, and it seems I was right.
[06:59] ---
    What do you mean?
[07:03] ---
    This is what you all saw, Commander.
[07:05] ---
    A rare subconscious-type alien.
[07:08] ---
    It's a Protean.
[07:11] ---
    Protean?
[07:12] ---
    Yes. In order to protect itself,
[07:15] ---
    it searches the mind of whoever's nearby
[07:17] ---
    and takes on the form of whatever
    scares that person the most.
[07:20] ---
    That's a wonderful ability!
[07:25] ---
    Commander-dono,
[07:26] ---
    why do you want to capture that alien?
[07:29] ---
    Gero gerori!
[07:31] ---
    If we capture and use it,
[07:33] ---
    we can terrify the Pekoponians.
[07:38] ---
    Come out!
[07:40] ---
    I've got delicious food for you!
[07:42] ---
    But if it approaches,
[07:43] ---
    it'll turn into something scary,
    so are you sure we'll be able to catch it?
[07:47] ---
    There's a way!
[07:49] ---
    I got a hint from Pekoponian rakugo.
SIGN    Scary Steamed Buns
[07:51] ---
    "The Scary Steamed Bun Strategy"!
[07:54] ---
    Steamed buns are scary?
[07:56] ---
    Well, put simply, you think of
    something you're not afraid of.
[08:00] ---
    In fact, you think of
    something that you love.
[08:02] ---
    But the plan is to make yourself
    think that it's scary.
[08:05] ---
    In my case, it might be Gundam models.
SIGN    Broken Gundam Model
[08:17] ---
    It's appeared already.
[08:21] ---
    Get a hold of yourself, Keroro!
[08:22] ---
    Darn it! Something I love...
    That's Natsumi...
[08:26] ---
    No! The invasion!
[08:33] ---
    Gero gero!
[08:35] ---
    Mr. Sergeant, hang in there! Leave it to me!
[08:38] ---
    I will be fine, even if I think that
    sweets are scary.
[08:41] ---
    Sweets... Sweets... Sweets...
SIGN    Steamed Cakes
SIGN    Valentine's Steamed Cakes Overstocked
[08:49] ---
    This is a formidable foe! But I shall...
[08:56] ---
    Th-The Trauma Switch
    buried deep in my heart!
[09:00] ---
    Are you all right, Dororo-senpai?
[09:04] ---
    Tama!
[09:06] ---
    This is me?!
[09:09] ---
    My own loveliness is scary!
[09:12] ---
    I'd love to interject there,
[09:14] ---
    but at least this form
    seems to be capturable!
[09:17] ---
    You had better not catch it!
SIGN    Raw Sea
    Cucumbers
SIGN    Salted Sea

    Sea Cucumbers
[09:26] ---
    S-Sea cucumber!
[09:27] ---
    Giroro, you're afraid of sea cucumbers?
[09:31] ---
    This is interesting.
[09:33] ---
    So Giroro-senpai's weakness
    is raw sea cucumber...
[09:36] ---
    No!
SIGN    Waaaaa! Noooo! Eeeek!
[09:37] ---
    Oh, come on now. What are you aliens
    doing on this o-bon evening?
[09:49] ---
    Huh?
[09:51] ---
    Did we get separated?
[09:53] ---
    Oh, well. Aki is with the children,
[09:56] ---
    and they've grown up, anyway.
[10:07] ---
    I wonder what it is. It seems there are
    more lanterns than usual this year.
[10:13] ---
    That's...
[10:15] ---
    Stop! Don't make me your shield!
[10:19] ---
    Just hang in there a little longer, sir.
[10:19] ---
    Sea cucumber! Sea cucumber!
[10:21] ---
    I'm not afraid of sea cucumbers, sir!
[10:23] ---
    Gero!
[10:25] ---
    Sea cucumber!
[10:31] ---
    I got it!
[10:32] ---
    Wait, Kero-chan!
[10:34] ---
    Gero?!
[10:35] ---
    That little one is lost.
[10:37] ---
    Let him go.
[10:39] ---
    A ship is coming up the river to pick him up.
[10:43] ---
    Gero...
[10:49] ---
    Go ahead.
[11:27] ---
    Who's that old woman?
[11:29] ---
    The person you're most afraid of, Admiral?
[11:31] ---
    No. That's my grandmother.
[11:35] ---
    This must be its way of thanking you.
[11:38] ---
    It read your mind
[11:40] ---
    and turned into the person
    you most want to see.
[12:06] ---
    Thank you.
[12:26] ---
    The Hinata family and the Keroro Platoon
[12:29] ---
    have come to Grandma Akina's house.
[12:36] ---
    Huh?
[12:43] ---
    Tama?
[12:45] ---
    Are you in training, Tama-chan?
    Even in the morning, you're working hard.
[12:49] ---
    Grandma! Good morning!
[12:52] ---
    I thought I would take advantage of the visit
[12:54] ---
    and do a lot of training in the mountains!
[13:01] ---
    Tamama and the Turtle, Sir!
[13:22] ---
    Huh. A turtle?
[13:25] ---
    See you later!
[13:38] ---
    Jealousy! Jealousy! Jealousy! Jealousy!
SIGN    Jealousy Jealousy Jealousy Jealousy
[13:42] ---
    That woman... Jealousy! Jealousy!
[13:47] ---
    Tamama Impact!
[14:02] ---
    Tama!
[14:16] ---
    You have only gotten this far
    in all this time?
[14:20] ---
    You should work harder, too!
[14:27] ---
    All right, then...
[14:29] ---
    Thank you for the food!
[14:31] ---
    Everything looks delicious!
[14:33] ---
    Wow!
[14:38] ---
    Delicious!
[14:39] ---
    It's so good...
[14:44] ---
    Nothing beats the admiral's cooking!
[14:48] ---
    Now then, what shall I play today?
[14:51] ---
    Don't give me "What shall I play"!
[14:53] ---
    We're spending the whole day
    doing survival training!
[14:56] ---
    That, or planning for the invasion!
SIGN    Pekopon Invasion Meeting
[14:59] ---
    All right, then.
[15:01] ---
    Does anyone have any good ideas
    for the invasion?
[15:08] ---
    Not especially...
[15:11] ---
    Then that wraps up this strategy meeting!
[15:13] ---
    You've got free time for the rest of the day!
[15:17] ---
    Wait a second! We need to think
    more seriously about this!
[15:20] ---
    Then you think first, Giroro.
[15:24] ---
    How about a strategy
    that uses sea cucumbers?
[15:28] ---
    Don't bring up sea cucumbers!
[15:30] ---
    I cut some watermelon. Everyone, eat up!
[15:33] ---
    Yahoo!
SIGN    Pekopon Invasion Meeting
[15:35] ---
    Watermelon!
[15:36] ---
    Is this any time to eat?!
[15:42] ---
    You're eating too, Giroro.
[15:43] ---
    Shut up! After we're done,
    we're gonna train in the mountains!
[15:48] ---
    So, what are we gonna play?
[15:50] ---
    We're not gonna play!
[15:51] ---
    I told you, it's survival training!
[16:00] ---
    The turtle from this morning...
[16:02] ---
    What? A turtle? Where?
[16:09] ---
    You have only gotten this far
    since this morning?
[16:14] ---
    Where was it this morning?
[16:16] ---
    By that statue.
[16:21] ---
    Then at this speed, it must have
    been walking since morning.
[16:25] ---
    Even while we were eating lunch
    and then watermelon later on...
[16:30] ---
    But where's it going in this heat?
[16:34] ---
    Perhaps it is in a race with a rabbit.
[16:37] ---
    Huh? What is with that?
[16:39] ---
    An old Pekoponian story.
[16:41] ---
    About a race between a rabbit and a turtle.
[16:45] ---
    What the heck is that?
    The rabbit would obviously win.
[16:48] ---
    Indeed. At first,
[16:50] ---
    the rabbit is overwhelmingly quick,
[16:53] ---
    but just before the goal,
    when it is a shoo-in to win,
[16:57] ---
    the rabbit decides to rest a bit,
    and falls into a nap.
[17:01] ---
    The rabbit is still fast asleep
    when the turtle overtakes him
[17:04] ---
    and then wins.
[17:06] ---
    That would never happen! It's ridiculous!
[17:09] ---
    It's just an old story, Mr. Corporal.
[17:13] ---
    No. You can't take it as just some old story.
[17:16] ---
    I believe an important hint lies within.
SIGN    Slow and steady
    wins the race!
[17:19] ---
    Like instead of being hasty, we should
    make progress on the invasion bit by bit?
[17:23] ---
    Like, aim to be like the turtle!
[17:32] ---
    Forget it! If we aim to be anything,
[17:34] ---
    it should be a rabbit that doesn't take naps!
[17:38] ---
    Then how about this?
[17:41] ---
    With this jet pack, even a turtle
    would win, moving like a cheetah.
[17:45] ---
    Ooh! Let's test it out!
[17:49] ---
    Why put it on me?!
[17:51] ---
    Click!
[18:01] ---
    Where the heck are you heading?
[18:05] ---
    Come to think of it,
    there's another old Pekopon story.
[18:09] ---
    About a guy named Urashima Taro
    who helps a bullied turtle.
[18:14] ---
    By way of thanks, the turtle takes him
    to a place called the Dragon Palace,
[18:19] ---
    and the time he spends there
    goes by like a dream.
[18:23] ---
    Huh. This is an intriguing tale.
[18:26] ---
    Then should we try helping the turtle?
[18:30] ---
    Oh, Giroro!
[18:31] ---
    You are such a jerk!
[18:33] ---
    Good timing.
[18:35] ---
    Bully this turtle a bit.
[18:37] ---
    Bully?!
[18:37] ---
    Then I'll save it.
[18:40] ---
    Why me?!
[18:41] ---
    After all, you used to be really cruel
    to Dororo when we were kids.
[18:46] ---
    That was you! I just watched!
[18:49] ---
    Just watched...
[18:51] ---
    That's right. Giroro-kun always
    just stood by and watched!
SIGN    Click
[18:55] ---
    Yes. Giroro-kun only stood by and watched...
[19:00] ---
    Giroro's fault again.
[19:00] ---
    He just watched...
[19:02] ---
    M-My fault?!
[19:02] ---
    Just watched...
[19:04] ---
    Just watched...
[19:06] ---
    Do you not need to eat and rest up?
[19:16] ---
    Huh. So you saw a turtle like that.
[19:19] ---
    Hey, Fukki, what do turtles eat?
[19:23] ---
    Turtles?
[19:25] ---
    Turtles are omnivores,
[19:27] ---
    so they can eat anything
    that's to their taste.
[19:32] ---
    Thank you!
[19:36] ---
    The path is dark at night, so be careful!
[19:39] ---
    I will be fine!
[19:42] ---
    Fuyuki, remember when we were little,
[19:44] ---
    and you got a turtle at the festival?
SIGN    Turtle Scoop
[19:49] ---
    You couldn't scoop it up,
[19:51] ---
    but the old man working the game was
     nice enough to give you one when we left.
[19:59] ---
    But the turtle disappeared
    from the tank the next day.
[20:05] ---
    It escaped, huh?
[20:06] ---
    Maybe the turtle they saw today was
    the one that escaped back then.
[20:11] ---
    Yeah, right!
[20:12] ---
    Come to think of it, I don't see
[20:14] ---
    the turtle scoop man here.
[20:28] ---
    There it is!
[20:30] ---
    Turtle-san, I brought you some sweets!
SIGN    Turtle Scoop
SIGN    Turtle Scoop
[20:51] ---
    I see. You wanted to come here so badly
[20:54] ---
    that you walked all this way non-stop.
[20:57] ---
    I'm happy for you.
SIGN    Turtle Scoop
[21:09] ---
    You are going home now, huh?
[21:22] ---
    Well, Mom...
[21:24] ---
    We'll visit again.
[21:25] ---
    Thank you for your hospitality, Admiral.
[21:28] ---
    Make sure you and your friends
    come back next time too, Kero-chan.
SIGN    Castella
[21:32] ---
    The next time you see the turtle,

    Private 2nd Class Tamama!
     Get over here, sir!
[21:45] ---
    Right!
[21:50] ---
    I promise we'll be back next year, ma'am!
[22:02] ---
    And so ends the strange summer day
    at Grandma's house
[22:05] ---
    during o-bon vacation for the Hinata family
    and the Keroro Platoon.
[22:09] ---
    However...
[22:13] ---
    Next year...
[22:15] ---
    That's right. There are 42 days left
    before the invasion deadline.
[22:20] [SONG] ---
    I picked up a bright red TV!
[22:20] [SONG] ---
    Makka na terebi o hirotta
[22:23] [SONG] ---
    I put it on my bike and pedaled it home.
[22:23] [SONG] ---
    Jitensha ni nosete kaetta
[22:26] [SONG] ---
    It was on a night
    that was just a little warm.
[22:26] [SONG] ---
    Sore wa sukoshi dake atatakai yoru datta
[22:33] [SONG] ---
    Yesterday I picked up a chest of drawers!
[22:33] [SONG] ---
    Kinou wa tansu o hirotta
[22:37] [SONG] ---
    I put it on my bike and pedaled it home.
[22:37] [SONG] ---
    Jitensha ni nosete kaetta
[22:39] [SONG] ---
    I wonder what I'll pick up tomorrow.
[22:39] [SONG] ---
    Ore wa ashita wa nani o hirou n darou
[22:44] [SONG] ---
    Cyling recycle!
[22:44] [SONG] ---

    Curry's better with more solid bits of food.
[22:51] [SONG] ---

    First is always rock; the others are taboo.
[22:54] [SONG] ---

[22:57] [SONG] ---
    All of life's experiences are good!
[22:57] [SONG] ---
    Jinsei keiken subete ga good!
[23:01] [SONG] ---
    Ahh...
[23:01] [SONG] ---
    Aa...
[23:03] [SONG] ---
    In this room with no furniture for me,
[23:03] [SONG] ---
    Kagu no nai kono heya ni
[23:06] [SONG] ---
    I sit on my own with no money.
[23:06] [SONG] ---
    Kane no nai ore hitori
[23:09] [SONG] ---
    Don't droop your head.
    Just keep the machine going!
[23:09] [SONG] ---
    Utsumukazu ni mashin o hashirasero!!
[23:14] [SONG] ---
    I have no saddle... (But I have pedals.)
[23:14] [SONG] ---
    Sadoru wa nai kedo "pedaru wa aru kara"
[23:21] [SONG] ---
    I picked up a bright red TV!
[23:21] [SONG] ---
    Makka na terebi o hirotta
[23:25] [SONG] ---
    I put it on my bike and pedaled it home.
[23:25] [SONG] ---
    Jitensha ni nosete kaetta
[23:28] [SONG] ---
    It was on a night
    that was just a little warm.
[23:28] [SONG] ---
    Sore wa sukoshi dake atatakai yoru datta
[23:35] [SONG] ---
    I'll keep riding my bike!
[23:35] [SONG] ---
    Jitensha wa hashiritsuzukeru!
[23:39] [SONG] ---
    With my big dreams and furniture on board,
[23:39] [SONG] ---
    Dekai yume to kagu nosete
[23:41] [SONG] ---
    I'll pick up something tomorrow, too!
[23:41] [SONG] ---
    Ore wa ashita mo nanika hirou darou!
[23:52] ---
    I'm Corporal Giroro.
    I hate to blow my own trumpet,
[23:55] ---
    but I was pretty cute as a kid.
[23:58] ---
    When I see Natsumi,
    I can't help but think, "Cute!"
[24:01] ---
    and maybe I want to hug her tight.
SIGN    Whatever Whatever Whatever Whatever
[24:05] ---
    That aside, ever since they were kids,
    Giroro's big brother has looked old.
[24:11] ---
    "Keroro: A Summer Treasure, Sir!"
[24:14] ---
    One full-length episode for you!
    How's that?
[24:16] ---
    Ge-Gero!
