01x20 - Separation / Yukari's Birthday / Spread your wings Chiyo / Child President / Please Let Me Be Strong

Post by bunniefuu »

Good morning!

I can't get it off...

Miss Osaka, good morning.

Chiyo-chan, thank you.

We'll finally be third year students
starting today.

Let's do our best!

Yeah, let's do our best.

Not good. Havin' to go all the way
to the third floor everyday...

I think I'm gonna lose heart.

That was quick.

Good morning!

Mornin'.

Morning.

I guess we're all together again.

Where are Tomo-chan and Kaorin?

Tomo's not here yet. Kaorin ended up
in a different class.

I see. That's really too bad.

Hi, there, everyone! Morning!

Oh!

You cut your hair?

Yeah, chopped it all off yesterday.

What do you think?

Are even the spring fairies taken
aback by my new charm?

After all, I've become
a third year student now.

I feel like she just reverted back
to a first year student...

But why did you cu...

No way, no way!

I didn't think so.

Why did you cut it all off?

Something about this bothers me,
but oh well.

Last year, I was growing my hair out,
going for a sexy look.

Basically, I was aiming for
the Fujiko-chan look.

Huh?

Fujiko-chan?

Aim for her look? But you're not
anything like her to begin with.

No, I was actually getting pretty close
except for my bust size.

How so?

Lupin!

That's why I gave up trying to go
the Fujiko-chan route!

And?

But I could at least sh**t for Ayu, you know?

At least?

Chiyo-chan, it's okay to get angry
at times like this!

I am Yukari Tanizaki, the homeroom
teacher of Class 3.

This year, you all are students
studying for entrance exams.

I'm sure you'll be stressed out a lot
and it'll be rough for you.

Uh-huh, uh-huh.

But it's even rougher for people
already in the work force.

So, you better not come looking for pity.

Don't act like tragic victims of the
modern education system!

Doesn't Yukari-chan seem a little riled up?

Who knows?

I mean, if you don't want to study,
then don't go to college.

Then did you go to college because
you wanted to study?

Hah! Like hell I did.

I wonder if she's got some
psychological scar

that she can't talk about?

But she's always like this...

Listen here. You guys only have to worry
about your own entrance exams,

but I have to think about the exams
of several dozen people!

I wonder if Yukari-chan might not be
suited to be a teacher.

If you say that, there's no hope for her.

Maybe I'll just not think about them...

I feel like I'm forgetting
something important, but...

I am Kimura, the homeroom teacher
of Class 4.

Congratulations!

Happy birthday!

What? Really?! Thank you!

Miss Kurosawa, please open it.

Okay.

Kurosawa!

What did you get?!

A handbag...

Wow...

Well, I've got handbags too!

I'm sure.

You know, you're better off
not having handbags anyway!

Why is that?

She is a bad person!

What?!

I'm an adult, you know!
There's nothing fun about birthdays!

We can hear every word...

Come to think of it, this year, again...

We didn't give her anything.

Nyamo-chan got somethin' last year too.

What is it, Nyamo? You're all smiles.

Here, look.

The kids in the class gave them to me
for my birthday present.

I sort of wonder if I make them feel
like they need to do this,

but it still makes me happy, you know?

What's wrong?

What the hell is with you?!

You think you've become the teacher
in one of those youth dramas?!

What are you so mad about?

Yukari-chan's actin' kinda weird today.

Yeah, she's oddly quiet...

Oh, that's right.

Miss Kurosawa, who teaches
the class next door,

apparently got a present for her birthday
from the kids in her class.

When is your birthday, Miss Yukari?

It's passed already.

We can't help it. Yukari-chan's birthday
is during spring vacation.

I feel bad. Let's get her something now,
even if it's late.

Who the hell needs presents anyway?!

We're sorry.

Happy birthday, huh?

Morning.

Um, Miss Yukari.

We know it's late,

but this is a birthday present
from all of us in the class.

What?

This is...

Are you telling me to give it to Nyamo?!

No! This is for you!

A present... for me?

Happy birthday to you!
Happy birthday to you!

Happy birthday, dear Yukari-chan!

Happy birthday to you!

Is she happy?

Oh, it's a handbag.

I'm going out for a bit!

She's gone to show it off to Class 2.

Though, it's really great that
she's happy 'bout it.

Happy birthday to you!
Happy birthday to you!

Happy birthday, dear Kimurin!

Kimurin?

Happy birthday to me.

"Me"?

Ooh, what's that? Career paths?

Yes. We are third year students, after all.

That's right, we're students studying
for entrance exams now.

Entrance exams?

What?

Ah-ha, I get it! You're going for a
sports scholarship, aren't you?!

Shut up! What are you going to do?!

What? Me? ICPO.

What's ICPO?

Interpol!

Whoa!

International police!

Whoa, that's amazing! What are you, a kid?!

But does that really exist?

I always thought it was just in the movies.

What?! It doesn't exist?!

ICPO exists.

See? It exists!

How do you join them?

No idea!

I wonder how you do it?

Do you become a police officer first
and then get chosen from there?

What?! Is that how it works?!

I don't really know.

Or rather, you sure don't know
anything about this

for wanting to become a part of it.

I see, so Tomo-chan's gonna be
a police officer.

No, I said, ICPO.

Oh, yeah! Speakin' of police,

there's somethin' I've been wonderin' about.

Listen when someone's talking to you.

That's right! What's written in the
police pocketbook?!

Does it have an address notebook
or memo notebook

attached to the back after all?

Now that you mention it...

It's got the suspect's phone number
and address and such written in it!

Wow, so convenient!

Yeah, right.

Oh...

Then maybe it's got the photo of
the person they like in there?

The photo of the policewoman they like
or print club stickers.

A policewoman, huh?!

But it'll be rough if a policeman falls for ya.

You know, they tail people and stuff.

That wouldn't be good.

What happened to talking about ICPO?

Chiyo-chan, are you going to apply
to a university?

Like Tokyo University?

Oh, no. I'm thinking of going overseas.

What? Studying abroad?!

Yes, especially since American schools

are used to accepting children
who have skipped grades.

Awesome! Studying overseas, huh?

There was Sasaki and Ichiro,
and now you're next, huh?

That's a little different.

Chiyo-chan says she's going to study
abroad. isn't that amazing?

Yeah, it's amazing.

No, it's nothing so...

She'll get k*lled.

Yeah.

'Cause your family's rich and you're tiny.

And you're easy to catch.

When you put it that way...

But if it ever comes to that,
Mr. Tadakichi will protect me!

Bang!

Mr. Tadakichi has been shot.

What?!

Then what should I do?

Oh, put your genius to good use,
like in the dramas,

resist futilely,

and get k*lled.

Don't worry.

If it ever comes to that, your father will...

My father?

Help!

Stop right there!

I'm sure he'll come flying.

You think so?

Bang!

What?! My father too?!

Don't worry, he deflected it!

No way!

But studying abroad in America?
Did your parents say okay?

Yes. They said to go and see
more of the world.

Let your darlin' children travel.

Chiyo-chan, you're darlin'.

Travelin' is okay!

All right, since you're doing this,
let's make you president!

That wouldn't be possible.

We'll make America Chiyo-chan's country!

When you do, give me Hawaii
and stuff, okay?

Like I said, it's not possible.

Chiyo-chan's country, huh?

I'd wanna go visit.

I bet she's thinking about
something weird again.

It's America!

Hello! Hello! Hello! Hello!

Welcome to our country!

Welcome!

The little Chiyo-chaos are so cute.

We will carry your luggage!

We will!

You sure? Thanks a bunch.

Let us go!

Let's! Let's!

That'd be nice...

Was it okay for us to leave
Miss Osaka behind?

She probably won't be coming back
for a while.

Yeah.

Their pork buns are supposed to be good!

Really?

You know a lot about these things,
you know that?

Don't they have pizza buns or gratin buns?

This place only sells pork buns!

Okay! I guess I'll buy a snack
on the way home for once!

Hey, that was fast!

Wow...

What?

Oh, nothing.

They don't use sugar or anything
in pork buns, so it's okay.

Well, well, how convenient for you.

Oh, it's yummy!

It really is delicious!

This has gotta be 100% beef!

That's pork!

That was delicious.

Pork buns really are the standard to go by.

No, I'd have a hard time giving up
octopus ball buns too.

I've never had that.
Do they really have those?

These days, they have everything.

What's your favorite food? Shark fins?

They have shark fin buns too.

Let me think...

Meatballs!

Whoa, there's a kid here!

I am not a kid!

You're a kid, you're a kid! You're a kid!

Bananas, I guess.

Whoa, there's an idiot here!

Why do you say that?!

Chiyo-chan!

Miruchi! Yuka!

Who are they?

They're my classmates from
back in grade school.

Hello.

What? You're a middle
school student already?

What are you saying?
I'm a high school student.

Look, we've got sailor uniforms now too.

Wow! I never got to wear those.
You're so lucky.

But I'll never get to wear the uniform
you're wearing either,

because your school is hard.

You must all be very good at school.

Yeah.

Our school allows for quite a bit of freedom,

so we get a lot of people who
skip classes and fail out too.

Really?

Not me, though.

Some get into Tokyo University,
while some can't get in anywhere.

Not me, though.

Bye-bye! See you later!

Bye-bye!

Thank you for waiting.

It's not me, right?

It IS you!

Now, for this part...

Kaorin.

Please don't call me Kaorin.

But everyone calls you that!

But why am I the only one being
called by a nickname?!

Then, you can also call me Kimurin.

Like I'm saying...

What? You've become the
class representative?

More like made to be than became...

What? Bullying?

I think it's the opposite of bullying.

Well, since we don't seem
to have any candidates,

I'd like to decide this through nominations.

Does anyone have someone they'd like
to nominate for representative?

Me! I think Kaorin would do a great job!

Any others?

Kimura likes me!

So, I'm stuck with Kimura for the next year...

Miss Sakaki is still so cool!

Why? Why am I the only one
in a different class?!

I got to see you again today.

I'm so happy.

Why? Why am I the only one
in a different class?!

Excuse me...

Excuse me, how do I get
to the faculty office?

It's Kimura's wife.

I'm so sorry. My husband forgot
his lunch at home.

I guess he's rather absentminded.

The "love wife lunch"!

I've come here before,
but I just can't remember.

To get to the faculty office,
go in there, go up the stairs,

and it's at the back of the second floor.

Thank you.

She's such a good person.

That's right. if he has a good person
like her for a wife,

Mr. Kimura must have his good points too.

This whole year, I've got Mr. Kimura
for my homeroom teacher,

so I'll look for his good points!

Tending a flower garden?

I didn't know he had a side to him like that.

Hi, Kaorin.

Mr. Kimura, are you tending some
flowers? What kind of flower...

Good points are just...

Good points are just...

Like hell I can find any!

Next week is the school trip in Okinawa!

Shiisaa.

This will be my first time, so I can't wait!

Saataa andagii.

I've got super big expectations
for diving, too!

Bitter melon champloo.

I might get to see an iriomote cat.

Yamapikaryaa!

Everyone, together now...

Haisai!
