SIGN    Have You Seen My Tama?
SIGN    Unruly Paint Battle
[01:31] everyone
    "Unruly paint battle!"
[01:38] Teacher
    Fortunately, the weather is lovely today.
[01:41] teacher
    Let's leave the school and
    stretch our legs a little.
[01:45] teacher
    Find a nice view in town,
    and paint a picture.
[01:49] teacher
    Remember, you have to make it there and
    back within the time limit, so don't go too far.
[01:53] students
    We won't!
SIGN    3rd Street Elementary School
[02:18] Tora
    Uh oh!
[02:20] Koma
    What's wrong?
[02:21] Tora
    There's a whole bunch of
    kids coming this way!
[02:24] Momo; Koma
    What?
[02:34] Pochi
    What is it? What do you see?
[02:37] Tora
    There are kids closing in on the park!
[02:40] Pochi
    Huh? Why?
[02:42] Tora
    "Why"? Well, that's...
[02:43] Tora
    I wonder why.
[02:45] Tama
    For now, let's hide and watch a while.
[02:47] everyone
    Okay.
[03:11] Tama
    There are sparkly things
    lined up in those boxes.
[03:14] Momo
    They have pretty paper wrapped around them.
[03:17] Tora
    Maybe it's some kind of snack
    we've never eaten before.
[03:20] Beh
    Let's hide and watch a little longer.
[03:32] girl
    Huh?
[03:50] Tama
    Something blue came wriggling
    out of the shiny thing.
[03:53] Tama
    When he put it on the paper,
    the blue spread everywhere!
[03:56] Koma
    The one I saw was red!
[03:58] Tora
    Then, is this green?
[04:01] Tama
    Tora! When did you get here?
[04:04] Tora
    Seems like this isn't a snack.
[04:06] Momo
    So, the things we see
    everyday that have color...
[04:09] Momo
    is it because someone paints them like that?
[04:12] Nora
    Now that you mention it...
[04:13] Nora
    You've seen humans in town painting
    houses and walls and things, right?
[04:19] everyone
    We have! We have!
[04:22] Beh
    And there was someone painting
    something on the street, too!
[04:25] everyone
    There was! There was!
[04:28] Tama
    What's wrong Pochi?
[04:29] Pochi
    So that means that people have
    painted color on everything we see?
[04:37] Tomekichi
    Okay! Here we go!
[04:39] everyone
    Yeah!
[04:41] Tomekichi
    Hup!
[04:46] Tomekichi
    There! There! There!
[04:49] Tomekichi
    Perfect!
[04:51] others
    Hup!
[04:55] others
    There!
[05:35] Tomekichi
    And the sky's gotta be blue!
[05:38] Pochi
    And then, the sunset is...
[05:40] Tomekichi
    And the sunset's gotta be red!
[05:47] Beh
    Then, all those kids... They're
    practicing coloring the town.
[05:51] Tora
    If it's practice, they shouldn't
    mind sharing a little of the color
[05:55] Tora
    from the shiny things with us, right?
[05:57] Koma
    How will we get them to share?
[05:59] Koma
    We can't just waltz in there, right?
[06:01] Tora
    Don't worry.
[06:03] Tora
    I know the perfect way.
[06:08] Takeshi
    Tama!
[06:09] Emi
    Momo!
[06:10] girl
    Are those cats yours,
    Takeshi-kun? They're so cute!
[06:12] Takeshi
    His name is Tama, and that's
    Momo. She's Emi-chan's cat.
[06:17] girl
    I want to draw this cat!
[06:18] boy
    You can't do that. We came to paint scenery.
[06:21] Takeshi
    Then all you have to do is paint
    both, the scenery and the cat.
[06:23] Emi
    I'm going to do that too!
[06:25] Emi
    After all, I've never drawn
    a picture of Momo before.
[06:28] Boy
    Me too!
[06:29] boy 2
    Huh? Then, me too!
[06:43] boy
    Huh?
[06:44] Takeshi
    Pochi!
[06:45] girl
    We have more models!
[06:47] boy
    Their poses have changed!
[06:50] boy
    Guess there's no helping it...
[06:52] boy
    Darn, darn, darn...
[07:04] Tora
    Okay!
[07:11] boy
    What's wrong?
[07:13] Takeshi
    Those are cat paw prints, aren't they?
[07:15] Takeshi
    Tama!
[07:16] Takeshi
    Your friends aren't hiding around
    here and playing tricks, are they?
[07:22] Emi
    My paints!
[07:24] Takeshi
    Mine too!
[07:26] girl
    They ran away!
[07:27] boy
    They're all in it together!
[07:29] Takeshi
    That Tama!
[07:31] boy
    Takeshi, you're his master, aren't you?
[07:33] boy
    Do something!
[07:39] Takeshi
    It's almost noon.
[07:41] Takeshi
    Let's eat lunch while we
    think up a counter-plan.
[07:51] Tama
    Are you okay?
[07:52] Beh
    It tastes weird!
[07:57] Nora
    You look like a tiger!
[07:58] Pochi
    That's amazing!
[08:00] Pochi
    If you use what's in here,
    you can change to any color!
[08:18] Takeshi
    What are you doing over here?
[08:25] Takeshi
    What's with those faces? Are you
    going to watch soccer or something?
[08:29] boy
    Man, look at how much paint they wasted.
[08:36] boy
    I don't have enough green.
[08:38] boy
    Hey! Green!
[08:41] Takeshi
    Pochi, go.
[08:56] girl
    Okay. Put a cloud here.
[09:02] girl
    Very good!
[09:19] boy 2
    Okay!
[09:21] boy 2
    I'm done!
[09:25] Tora
    I can't take any more!
[09:29] Tora
    My patience has completely worn out!
[09:32] boy 3
    Hey! I found a soccer ball!
[09:35] boy 3
    There!
[09:36] Takeshi
    All right!
[09:38] boy
    Wait!
[09:39] girls
    Takeshi-kun! You can do it!
[09:45] boy 3
    Takeshi! Over here!
[09:53] boy 3
    That little...
[09:55] boy 3
    Stop right there!
[10:03] Emi
    My painting!
[10:05] girl
    Oh, that's so mean!
[10:10] Takeshi
    What's wrong?
[10:14] boy 3
    Stop!
[10:17] Takeshi
    Tama!
[10:18] boy
    Those little...
[10:21] boy 3
    Stop!
[10:29] teacher
    What are all of you doing?
[10:33] male teacher
    Honestly. I come to check on
    you and this is what I find...
[10:37] male teacher
    Huh?
[10:38] male eacher
    What is this? Are you imitating Picasso?
[10:42] male teacher
    You need to take this more seriously!
[10:45] male teacher
    In what world will you
    find red or green cats?
[10:53] male teacher
    Th-This is...
[10:55] Takeshi
    Teacher. Teacher!
[10:58] male teacher
    Huh?
[10:58] Takeshi
    Behind you.
[11:14] male teacher
    All the paintings look like scribbles.
    There's no dignity to them.
[11:19] male teacher
    These are the worst in the
    history of the school.
[11:22] teacher
    This year, we have such interesting
    paintings, don't you think?
[11:25] male teacher
    Huh?
[11:27] Takeshi
    When our homeroom teacher saw the paintings
    with the paw prints, he was furious.
[11:32] Takeshi
    But, our art teacher looked at
    the paintings that made him yell,
[11:34] Takeshi
    "Are you imitating Picasso?"
[11:36] Takeshi
    and she really liked them.
[11:39] Takeshi
    Those paintings were exhibited
    in an overseas contest.
[11:43] Takeshi
    They even won awards,
    surprising the whole school.
[11:47] Takeshi
    But the fact that the ones
    who painted those paintings
[11:49] Takeshi
    were Tama and the others... that's a secret.
SIGN    Flute's Whisper
[11:58] everyone
    "Flute's whisper!"
[12:13] Tama
    I'm home!
[12:16] Takeshi
    This is bad! I'll be late! Late!
[12:22] Takeshi
    Don't bother me!
[12:24] Takeshi
    I have no time to play with you, Tama!
[12:26] Takeshi
    Oh, no! I don't have time for this!
[12:34] Emi
    Oh, dear! I'll be late!
[12:38] Emi
    Honestly! I don't have time to
    play with you right now, Momo!
[12:42] Emi
    Oh, I have to hurry!
[12:45] Emi
    I'm going!
SIGN    Matsu's Bathhouse
[12:49] Tama
    What? Your house too, Pochi?
[12:51] Pochi
    Yes. Yesterday, they even forgot my food.
[12:55] everyone
    What?
[12:56] Koma
    They forgot at my place too.
[12:58] Nora
    Mine too!
[12:59] Tama
    What?
[13:01] Nora
    The young man at the liquor
    store who always gives me milk.
[13:03] Pochi
    Oh, I see!
[13:06] Momo
    It seems like everyone
    on Third Street is busy.
[13:10] Tama
    So it wasn't just Takeshi-kun and Emi-chan.
[13:13] Tama
    Huh?
[13:15] Tama
    It's Takeshi-kun!
[13:18] Takeshi
    I just don't know what to do.
[13:21] Takeshi
    Man, I hate this.
[13:24] Takeshi
    After I get home, I have to
    go straight to cram school.
[13:27] Emi
    That's so true.
[13:28] Takeshi
    If I get good grades on my next test, then...
[13:31] Emi
    If you do, then what?
[13:32] Takeshi
    They told me that I won't need
    to go to cram school any more!
[13:35] Emi
    Then, you need to study more!
[13:37] Takeshi
    I guess so.
[13:39] Takeshi
    Man... I have to study even after I get home?
[13:41] Koma
    Why are humans so busy?
[14:09] cat
    What do you think? Feels good, right?
[14:11] Tama
    Yeah. I don't know why,
    but it feels really good.
[14:14] cat
    There's a place you can
    always feel this good.
[14:17] cat
    Won't you come with me?
[14:19] Tama
    What? There's a place like that?
[14:23] everyone
    Really?
[14:24] cat
    Of course.
[14:25] Pochi
    What kind of place is it?
[14:27] cat
    Your person... Your friends...
[14:30] cat
    the weather... food...
[14:33] cat
    whether to play or sleep...
[14:35] cat
    It's a place where you don't
    have to think about any of that.
[14:37] cat
    A place where everything feels nice and
    you don't need to think about anything.
[14:42] cat
    Humans call the place Utopia.
[14:46] cat
    What do you think? Will you come?
[14:48] cat
    It's not like your people
    play with you anyway, right?
[14:51] Tama
    It's because they're busy right now.
[14:53] Tama
    Once they're not busy anymore,
    I'm sure they'll play with us!
[14:56] cat
    Really...
[14:58] cat
    I wonder.
[15:01] Yuzuko
    Well, as you can see, we're
    in the service industry.
SIGN    Matsu's
    Bathhouse
[15:04] Yuzuko
    We can't rest.
SIGN    Matsu's Bathhouse
[15:07] Yuzuko
    But, to tell you the truth, a week, no...
[15:10] Yuzuko
    I'd like to spend two or three
    days just doing nothing.
[15:14] Yuzuko
    What was it that you wanted here?
[15:17] stranger
    Let's make it so you are less busy.
[15:20] Yuzuko
    Huh? Can you do that?
[15:23] stranger
    Yes.
[15:24] Yuzuko
    Really?
[15:26] Yuzuko
    Well then, can you make it so I
    can rest for two or three days?
[15:29] stranger
    Yes. In exchange...
[15:31] stranger
    If you were less busy... would
    you play with your pet cat?
[15:35] Yuzuko
    What?
[15:37] Yuzuko
    Of course! If I weren't busy, I'd
    play with her as much as she wanted!
[15:42] stranger
    That's a promise.
[15:44] Yuzuko
    Yes, yes, I understand.
[15:52] Yuzuko
    What's this? Just playing the flute
    can make it so I'm less busy?
[15:58] stranger
    It's a promise.
[16:01] Yuzuko
    R-Right...
[16:13] Yasushi
    I mean, it's just the two of us
    running this place 24 hours a day!
[16:16] Zenji
    Things come in from everywhere, and I
    have to ship them out to everywhere.
[16:21] Zenji
    Despite how it looks, it's a tough job.
[16:24] Tomekichi
    Well, yeah, even I want time off, you know?
[16:27] stranger
    If you had time, you would play
    with your cat, wouldn't you?
[16:30] Tomekichi
    Of course I would!
[16:32] Unokichi
    Will just playing the
    flute make me less busy?
[16:37] stranger
    It's a promise.
[16:42] stranger
    Then, it's a promise.
[16:45] Takeshi
    Y-Yes, sir.

[16:49] Emi
    Are you sure it was all right to
    make a weird promise like that?
[16:52] Takeshi
    Huh? It'll be fine.
[16:54] Takeshi
    It may be a promise, but
    it's just to play with Tama.
[16:56] Takeshi
    And anyway, there's no way him playing the
    flute would get me a 100 on my test...
[17:01] Emi
    What is it?
[17:03] Takeshi
    Now I think about it, I haven't
    played with Tama lately.
[17:13] Tama
    Takeshi-kun and Emi-chan seemed
    sort of lonely, didn't they?
[17:16] Momo
    What?
[17:18] Momo
    Yes.

SIGN    Yamada Tofu
[18:00] Tomekichi
    Your place, too, huh?
[18:03] Unokichi
    I haven't had a single customer all day.
[18:06] Unokichi
    There's just no business.
[18:08] Unokichi
    I have so many customers that
    say no tofu but mine will do.
[18:12] Unokichi
    That's why I work myself to the bone
    every day, from morning 'til night.
[18:17] Unokichi
    I may have free time, but I just
    don't feel like playing with Pochi...
[18:20] Tomekichi
    Wait... Pochi?
[18:23] Tomekichi
    Did he come here, too? With
    a weird hat and a cape...
[18:27] both
    A man playing a flute came by?
SIGN    Yamada Tofu
[18:41] Unokichi
    I just don't feel like playing with Pochi...
[18:45] Yasushi
    Playing with Kuro won't bring customers in...
[18:49] Yuzuko
    This is no time to be playing with Koma!
[18:52] Tomekichi
    How can I play with Tora
    when I haven't done my work?
[18:56] Takeshi
    Oh, this is bad!
[19:00] Takeshi
    I never thought I'd actually
    get a 100... What do I do?
[19:04] Takeshi
    I don't think I'll be able to
    get a 100 on the next one...
[19:08] Takeshi
    I think I should go to cram school after all.
[19:15] cat
    Hey. So, you did come.
[19:17] cat
    That's just what humans are like, you see.
[19:20] cat
    Now, that place where you can
    forget all about your masters...

    What town shall we visit next?

    I'm going to be late! Late!

    When I get back, want to play?
[22:05] Unokichi
    Thank you for your business!
[22:07] Takeshi
    Today on Third Street, you can hear the
    voices of Tama and his friends playing.
[22:12] Takeshi
    No matter how busy I am...
[22:14] Takeshi
    when I hear them, somehow it
    makes me feel really good.
