"When did he first come here?" "I really don't remember." "It's been a while now." "Did you know how famous he was?" "Not really." "No." "What do you think now?" "Never judge a person by his appearance." "Do you usually come to this park?" "Yes, my daughter used to play here." "I... think of her very often." "I like to reflect here." "You know," "I really wanted a boy." "Do you prefer boys?" "It's not about preferences, this new generation is so different." "They have... no sense of responsibility." "But, I won't just give up on them." "Do you want another child?" "I won't rule it out yet." "I just hope it's not another girl." "I have a plan, and a strong belief." "Do you see her often?"

"Do you like the United States? Certainly." "In these times, there's no reason to be hostile." "It's a matter of education, let people make up their own minds." "I don't look too deeply, into these things." "Are you okay?" "Hello." "I feel embarrassed, can you stop filming." "Why?" "It's a business call." "Hello." "Hello" "Yes," "Seems so..." "That's an important role." "Where? I know." "I know." "Please be quick." "I'll wait for you." "Who was that? An old rival." "Rival?" "I may have to fight them." "This may be good news."

"But he does have a playful side." "My mom says he's beautiful." "Do you feel completely recovered?" "Yes." "I feel fine." "Although sometimes it's hard to judge yourself." "The cat has probably been missing me." "Do you ever get tired of it all?" "Oh!" "That depends on the circumstances." "Not knowing when the monster will break out." "Or when to take a rest?" "I don't know, it can happen anytime." "I'm running out of locations." "I can't rest." "I have to be ready to deal with it." "There are a lot of photographs on your wall." "Who are they?"

"Even when they are single," "What are the wages like?" "People have no concept of circumstances." "So, for now, I just try to enjoy myself." "A month goes by so quickly." "My wage is barely enough to survive." "Soon, I'll have to rob banks to support myself." "All I can do is use my talent to make money." "Why were they more popular before?" "Maybe, because of the quantity of the monsters." "How can I put this..." "Today, this industry is very quiet, now one must rely on far fewer monsters." "And there's much less creativity, Much less." "The monsters just don't appear as often now." "They were better organised?" "Back in those days." "It really was a golden time (age)." "Or so it seemed." "Nowadays it's all dead." "It's shown at a late hour, Too late for most..." "Yes, the 'dead' hour" "Yes." "1 million viewers?" "I remember when we reached 2 million!" "The viewers will come back, I'm sure." "I don't know."

"Some people say you are a monster?" "Yes, I am a monster." "The general term is 'monster'" "I am fine, with this." "A 'monster' to me is not always a bad thing." "We must choose our words carefully," "Today we can use this word freely," "The conotations aren't so bad." "Yes, a 'monster'." "During the old times, people didn't think like they do today." "I am sure of that." "Are you sure?" "Really?" "So you say..." "It's depends on how you think about it." "How do you feel about working for the military?" "Your opinions?" "Well," "This doesn't interest me at all." "I occasionally hear comments, but I take no notice." "What I do is a tradition, from ancient times." "It is certainly very complex" "The end result is that, monsters and humans resist each other." "Only when one of them is dying do the humans or monsters understand the other culture" "I have no hatred of humans" "Are you scared of anyone?" "Uncertainty scares me, or this new generation!" "We are just products now." "Last of the things that cannot be controlled." "Todays generation just wants to clean up everything." "The children?" "The children..." "Yes, the children" "I am not so sure." "Can we come in?" "Bear with me," "Just wait here a moment." "Okay." "I am the 'King of Pain'" "That... crew is filming me," "Can you let them in?"

"Does he prefer it here?" "It must be done correctly?" "That is vital." "Are you scared?" "Does he worry you sometimes?" "No... because they are a good team." "Sorry, Sorry, can you start again?" "Okay." "Okay, ready now." "Sorry!" "The beginning..." "I am ready." "Please stand back." "Do you think he is cursed?" "Cursed?" "A curse is something... that doesn't have a positive meaning." "I'd say it's a... gift." "It's hard to say," "Go on..." "A curse..." "A curse... can be used to serve justice also." "His heart is honest." "Who said it was a curse?" "Well, we all have our own personal viewpoint." "Everyone thinks that they are usually right." "I thinks that that he is a man of justice, but, what exactly is justice?" "In todays world, these definitions become blurred." "What is life?" "Your life?" "My life?" "Whose so-called life is the standard?" "it's all a process." "My own life is here" "life still... from generation to generation we continue the last one, that progression is 'life'" "To say that the ones self is the only life?" "Or death..." "Will only I die, when I close my eyes for the last time?" "This is very important." "Which one is more important is another matter." "But if I compare death to life, then life is certainly the most important." "Life is hard," "People get die all the time." "To ignore it is foolish, It's all we have." "Animals also think in this kind of way" "Even monsters..." "He must find a safe landing spot before he jumps down." "If he is successful he will prosper." "This is the survival mentality that drives the monster." "Please do not cover your chest." "What a hero!" "What a hero!" "." "It's starting..." "Thanks" "Thanks" "It's starting," "Does the 'King of Pain' come here often?" "Yes, when his schedule allows." "He drops in." "Sorry, what is your relation to him?" "Me?" "Just a friend." "We were childhood friends." "We have known each other for so long now." "This is the true test of friendship." "What do you think of his work?" "It's very tiring." "I've seen him grow, and transform into the giant." "it looked so painful!" "A lot of people let fame go to their head," "But not him." "He always wants to please and help others." "Ms Mulberry, How old are you?" "What do you think, Guess how old?" "30...s 30's?" "!" "You divided in two!" "It doesn't matter whether you know or not," "Just don't say I am 20 years old" "Age is important to a woman." "I'm sorry." "Ms Mulberry, are you coming too?" "Come with me, right?" "I should slap you!" "Thanks." "Okay," "Be careful!" "Ms Mulberry, be careful!" "See you tomorrow." "Goodbye." "Young ladies, how many of you entertained him tonight?" "Him?" "Yes." "Yes, how many?"

"He is in room number 3." "Okay." "Has he been here long?" "His Grandfather?" "About three years" "Are you surprised?" "He leads an active life." "What he can do is very unusual." "Yes, that's one way of saying it." "He's quiet," "He is older now." "Yes, he is." "Your grandpa can be difficult?" "It's tough to feed him, or give him his medicine." "When he was younger he took a lot of different drugs." "Maybe more pressure from society?" "How did your father die?" "Very tragically, my father died when he was still very young." "His death came about... because he... wanted to be bigger." "but he over-worked himself... and died abruptly." "His generation was different, in the fourth generation the elder of the house couldn't connect with their sons." "They reminded them of the ageing process." "Well, that's my guess." "Do you think everything is bigger now?" "Can we deny it?" "We sometimes forget the consequences, which are bigger problems." "as a result... intelligence is slipping away." "Our brains are bigger." "No." "Hello." "Your Grandpa has escaped." "He fled the hospital" "Tokyo Tower Under Attack!" "What do you think?" "This is... this is a problem of the fourth generation" "The generations are irrelevant." "I don't know what to do," "We will lose all our sponsors." "I'm sorry for the 'sponsor', but what can I do?" "What are you saying?" "The sponsors pay our salaries." "I really don't know..." "That's why you are the manager!" "Me?" "The fourth generation?" "You are also the fourth generation?" "What exactly is 'fourth generation'?" "How can you do nothing?" "People don't understand my position." "Your position?" "People just want a little peace and quiet." "I work hard." "In this business, the sponsors keep us going, from this month to the next." "I want to stay in my job." "I am not saying it like that." "You missunderstand me." "Please try and help me." "We've been here before, it's just like the last time." "Believe me, I know." "You sure about what you are saying?" "The sponsors will drop out." "Can you promise me they won't?" "I said that I am sure." "Somehow, you need to do something." "I'm not doing anything!" "I told you." "Don't get angry with me." "There is nothing to do!" "That is my policy." "Just ignore what other people say." "I trust you to do the same." "Remember this you'll be a good manager." "Look at the monster." "Look at the enemy What monster was that?" "I don't know" "When will you fight again?" "The ratings were very good." "Yes." "An increase of 7%" "Yes." "Great," "I enjoyed it very much." "Good Morning." " Good Morning." "Can we talk?" " Yes." "What a beautiful car." "Yes, I like it." "Did you buy it?" " Yes." "Is it a new car?" " Yes." "How much?" "100,000." "Excellent!" "It was a hire purchase." "I've paid in full." "Your dog is very big, what is his name?" "He's called 'Sympathy'." "Behind him is 'Delicacy'." "'Delicacy' ?" "Are you working now?" "With your dogs?" "Yes." "Delicacy." "Isn't he lovely." "Who is your favourite?" "I like them both." "No favourite?" "Which one is Delicacy?" "Did you see the ratings for last night?" "Yes, I saw them," "Very good" "Thank You." "Still worried?" "Yes." "We need to keep our audience." "Did you see the 'King of Pain' last night?" "Yeah, I saw it." "And?" " He wasn't so tough." "He was weak then?" "Yes, I saw the fight!" "Compared to the other monster, he was right to run." "He would have been beaten." "I agree." "He still needs to grow up a little." "He should be more serious." "I was dissappointed." "The 'King of Pain' needs cheering up..." "Yes, sounds right..." "Certainly." "He could be happier." "Have you bought a new car?" "I haven't bought one yet." "Why the delay?" "You should get one." "Well..." "I want you to recommend one for me." "I'll have a look for you." "What do you think of last night..." "Our ratings went up like a shot." "Running away wasn't good though?" "You are my Manager," "Do you think that I ran away?" "You escaped from a bad situation." "You had no choice, no doubt about it." "I am not a coward, In that moment... it was all I could do." "You saw it as well." "You don't have to be like everyone else, I hate nationalism." "I know." "Our great nation, Japan" "By order of the General... will punish all big Japanese" "You know..." "You know... it's very difficult... to buy my daughter a present." "It's for her." "I don't know what kids want... so I bought her a hat." "A hat." "It's a present for her." "The things she likes," "I don't know where to get them from." "You seem very happy?" "I guess so!" "It's nice in the quiet times." "I am just thinking of... seeing my daughter again." "How long has it been?" "About a month." "Do you always come to this place?" "Yes." "My wife lives near here." "I can get here very easily." "Please don't think this is a big man's doctrine." "This is all down to fate." "You are much happier." "Please don't!" "It doesn't happen often." "Right." "I just want to see my daughter," "January is only once a year." "Usually, I have to work." "I can't always get here." "Do you think about her often?" "I know she thinks a lot of me." "It's very difficult." "Hey." "She's at the bar." "Is that her?" "I didn't tell her I was with you and the crew." "It doesn't matter Okay..." "She's probably worried about... whether she is made up or not." "Let's see..." "Your work isn't normal is it?" "Pardon?" "Tell them... just explain who you are, okay." "Sorry." "I will bring his daughter... but please promise me you won't film her face." "I didn't know what he had planned for today." "Muffle the words and use a mosaic." "They don't need to use the mosaic!" "If people know who she is she will be humiliated!" "She will not be humiliated by anyone!" "Please lower your voice." "Why, don't be ashamed of me." "If they muffle the words and use a big mosaic?" "I disagree there's nothing to hide from here." "If you agree to my terms you can proceed." "If not..."

"No, this is simply not true," "It would not be good for her." "To live like that..." "I would be upset." "Where do you work now?" "I work in a friends' shop." "Yes... the manager there is my friend." "The work there is quite vigorous." "So, that's why." "Yes." "This recording is something I can give to the 'King of Pain' to see." "Yes, that's fine...

"A new monster has appeared!" "Strange Flavour Monster ...His body will send out a strange flavour!" "This is the secret skill of the strange flavour monster." "What's up?" "You gone crazy?" "What?" "Because of you... a lot of people round here can't get home." "I am the strange flavour monster... don't talk to me like that!" "You're causing trouble... get back to the suburbs!" "Who do you think you are?" "...With that pathetic stick!" "What is that!" "Such a terrible facial expression." "Watch what you say!" "Idiot!" "Think you can say what you like, because you are bigger than me?" "Who is bigger?" "You." "What?" "Look, I don't know who you are..." "But you just stand here... blocking my traffic!"

"It's my duty to protect this nation!" "Shut up!" "Where do you come from?" "The West!" "Return!" "I've just arrived!" "What do you want?" "I won't tell you!" "Speak up!" "Look there..." "He arrived soon after me." "Who is that?" "Does he think this is a contest?" "Maybe he wants to fight you?" "Looks like he takes after me..." "No... this isn't right." "He's totally undisciplined." "Have a good look at him." "He is still a kid, Just 10 years old." "No understanding of what he is." "Hey..." "Don't do that." "Get him to stop." "I can't." "Who can control him?" "He is is just a child." "He has too much energy." "Here we go, he's getting fired up." "His voice is getting too loud." "If you are so worried... why are you asking me?" "You go and tell him." "Hey, You..." "Hey, please don't do that." "Look at what you are doing?" "No need to be so excited kid." "You still have a long way to go before you..." "What the..!" "The monsters from the suburbs... refuse to return home." "This is the temperament of... these monsters." "Mother..." "Mother..." "I am coming!" "Can you hear me?" "It feels strange." "This is my last moment here." "So strange... and overwhelming." "I am coming to you..." "I must be strong, even though..." "I am facing death." "I am fine.." "I am returning to you..." "Mother." "I am coming!" "That hurts!" "The public are taking this very seriously." "What now?" "What?" "..." "This childs death." "It is very sad in this business... when these things happen." "His life was taken away from him when he was so young, and he has left a big impression on all of us." "I want to tell his story to the world." "I think we are all still very shocked." "I do not kill people." "He was a monster from the other side," "He's gone to a better place." "I do not kill people... these things happen." "Any remorse?" "Contrary to what they report," "I did not do anything wrong." "He bit your nipple." "Still hurt?" "My nipple is very sensitive..." "It still hurts." "When will you fight again?" "I don't want to." "Why not?" "You should." "The ratings are better." "Who told you that?" "Anway, I'm not interested anymore." "You've reached your limit?" "I am not interested now." "Don't feel good?" "I don't think about it as much." "Are you scared?" "About what?" "Killing the child." "Why should I be afraid then?" " You seem worried." "I have already explained myself on this matter." "It's... not the tragedy people think." "Tragedy?" "I feel fine." "What worries me most is... is... what I care about most is, who will oversee this generation, if I were to die." "This generation..." "Who will oversee them?" "Maybe send them to a nursing home?" "You can't send them to a nursing home!" "They need to respect each other," "They are out of control..." "I was trained by the fourth generation." "I had good training," "Respect?" "This is what is missing in todays' monsters." "You haven't told us about your latest monster?" "I don't like to." "What kind of child is he?" "What kind of child?" "..." "He is a very normal child." "...a bit fat." "He's still very, very small." "How much does he weigh?" "I'd say he's in healthy shape." "Just needs to lose a bit of weight?" "Not much..." "I recall my own education." "If he eats continously then... one day he will be the biggest man in Japan." "It's how I was taught," "Before your father died." "I am stilll worried about his eyesight." "His eyesight?" "It's not so good..." "He needs to see well to surprise his enemies." "Could it be serious?" "Well, it's very important," "Athough, it's fine for the body to return without complete vision." "But..." "My father would charge electricity through me," "It helped a lot?" "I didn't mind it then." "I haven't spent much time on his mental preparation." "He is still very young." "Scared?" "I am very frightened." "I don't know exactly how he'll turn out." "What... is peculiar, is that my fourth generation grandpa..." "He dissapproved of your fathers methods? He was pathetic." "You are very strong." "Pardon?" "You can hold your drink." "I have other strengths as well!" "What?" "I wanted to make this film..." "Rain or shine..." "I have this..." "What is that?" "It's my fold-out umbrella." "I told you it would rain!" "You are really smart." "I am a big Japanese man!" "Hello?" "I've just wrapped up." "Super justice ready to start shooting..." "We all pray for super justice," "For justice!" "Nice to meet you..."
