"Pull as hard as you can!" " Heave-ho!" "One-two!" "Heave-ho!" "To the representatives of all classes and clubs, from the Festival Committee:" "When using carts in the hallways, please observe the speed limit." "Use of bicycles and motorcycles is prohibited." "The school store will be open during the School Festival as Hama Teashop." "Today, we're having our big Festival Eve Special!" "Featuring Ramen Lite!" "Less filling, but it's a whopping 30% off!" "Between 9:00 and 11:00, the Central Staircase is only for going up." "To all students!" "This is the Discipline Committee!" "Wearing costumes before School Festival Day is prohibited!" "Hey, you!"

"Repeat: all girls please leave the building by 10:00." "But do you really think anyone'll come to a place that looks like this, Megane?" "Maybe we should have gone with the Hot Babes Coffee Shop like Ataru suggested." "Lum gave it her OK too, after all." "I won't have Lum acting like a bimbo." "Besides, do you know how hard it was to collect money from everyone in class to open this place?" "I'll be damned if I'll let it be operated to Ataru's weird tastes." "Weird tastes, he says..." "Speaking of whom, where's our fearless leader goofing off now?" "Lum just went looking for him, so he should be back soon." "I swear..." "Hey, I'm sorry, but I gotta split soon." "I gotta get Hama Teashop ready too." "OK, thanks for your help." "Oh brother." "Looks like we'll be staying here again tonight." "We've got a real manpower shortage here!" "No wonder, considering how unpopular Ataru is." "HEY!" "You guys still goofing around?" "!" "When in the hell is your shop gonna be ready, morons?" "!" "So don't goof around, work!" "Got it?" "What the?" "Hey!" "We have tons of things to do before tomorrow's opening!" "So quit screwing around, and get...!" "What's wrong with you?" "Hey, isn't it a great idea?" "If I go out looking like this, and really toady up to the crowd, you'll have a stampede of costumers..." "What's that?" "Toadying up to the crowd, looking like WHAT?" "Where's Moroboshi?" "!" "Get out here now!" "You're supposed to be in charge!" "Sir, could you avoid causing any unnecessary shocks?" "Even with the options removed to make it lighter this Leopard still weighs about 40 tons empty and I won't be held responsible for it, even if it drops through the floor." "WHAT!" "Hey, Mendou!" "I don't know if this is an exhibit, or what but I didn't give any permission to bring a tank in here!" "So you say, but there's nothing to be done, as it's already here." "Or would you prefer to confiscate it?" "Confiscate!" "Confiscate!" "SHUT UP!" "Damn!" "How'd he get it in here, anyway...?" "That was terrific!" "Hmmh?" "That disgusting laugh..." "Ataru!" "Whare are you?" "Get out here!" "I love you, Ran!" "Huh?" "In here?" "You come here too, Ryoko." "Hurry up..." "Ryoko?" "Are you in there?" "Ryoko!" "Hey!" "Moroboshi!" "What are you doing in there?" "Come out!" "That idiot!" "Moroboshi!" "What have you done to my sister...?" "OK, come on, Oyuki, Kurama, Shinobu..." "Yes, yes, I won't run away..." "Oh, Sakura, don't do that... oh no..." "Aw, shut your stupid mouth, you jerk!" "I'm claustrophobic!" "I'm scared of the dark!" "Let go, you ass!" "Sa... save me!" "Somebody please save me!" "Pathetic fools..." "My arms are going numb!" "My... my teeth are falling out!" "What are you doing, sir?" "Lum!" "Save me!" "Sure, but first, do you know where my Darling is, sir?" "Mo..." "Moroboshi is in this tank." "Now help me, hurry!" "In here?" "C'mon, Ryuu..." "Let go, you jerk!" "Aw, c'mon, Ryuu..." "Cut it out!" "Stay away from me!" "Ryuu!" "You jerk!" "Darling!" "Come out of there before I count to three!" "One...!" " I'm scared of the dark!" " Jerk!" "Two...!" "I'm scared!" "THREE!" "Divine retribution!" "Well, since this is the annual school festival and since student self-management is to be encouraged... there's no point in me, the principal, saying anything now." "As Shinran said, "The road to heaven is harder for the pious than the profane."" "Man travels alone, walking without either looking back or crying." "And who would know the true heart of the waters deep beneath the earth...?" "We all go through times of agony, pain, and wrongdoing and become fine adults in spite of it and Momotaro can go to Manchuria and become Genghis Khan." "As the great Goethe said, "Pass through agony and reach the great pleasure!"" "Thus, anyway, the important thing is that all are safe; no one was injured." "Please keep in mind that safety always comes first." "Thank you." "My, do we have a mice?" "Oh man!" "I can't stand the Principal's long speeches!" "Oh, Miss Sakura!" "Hmh?" "What are you still doing here?" "Wasn't it decided that girls have to leave the school by ten o'clock?" "Well, there was a little fuss..." "Moroboshi again, right?" "What about you, Miss Sakura?" "I can't keep up with all the fools who hammer on their own fingers or nail their own feet to the floor." "So I'm staying tonight too." "I can't take this." "Every night another stupid disaster." "Which we then spend all night cleaning up." "When I phone my mom, she keeps complaining that girls my age shouldn't stay away from home so much." "I've had it!" "Really?" "I like it, because it's like camping out every night." "Unlike aliens, humans can't deal with this kind of thing all the time!" "And why do I have to be here anyway?" "I'm not even a committee member." "What do you mean?" "Well, let's say Person A is staying here out of concern for Person B." "In my case, I'm staying because I care about this Person A." "But the Person B that the Person A is concerned about doesn't know this." "Did you understand that?" "Not at all." "No, I suppose you wouldn't." "Anyway, that's why I'm tired of it all." "How can I compete with you, when you haven't a clue?" "It's tough." "Sorry." "But I never get tired of watching you kids." "Lum, I've been meaning to ask you:" "just what do you see in Ataru?" "Even I wonder sometimes." "I mean, he's such a typical male:" "Good-for-nothing, lazy, mean, lustful, perverted, fickle, and egotistical." "Though, I'll admit, he is a good natured sort of person." "Not so much different from Shutaro!" "At least Shutaro's good-looking." "That's a big difference!" "I swear, young girls these days..." "Oh, yeah?" "Good looks seem to be your fiance's saving grace too!" "Who asked you?" "I love Darling!" "I want to live happily ever after with Darling, his Mom and Dad, Ten Shutaro and Megane and all his friends." "That's MY dream." "What!" "That's basically just like now!" "Yup, that's why I'm so happy now!" "Well, if you're gonna be so blunt, there's nothing more to say." "Make sure you turn off the stove, OK?" "And hey, hang in there." "There's only tonight left." "Tomorrow is the school festival's opening day." "Hey!" "Sorry to hold you up!" "OK, go!" "Hey, Mendou, are you still mad?" "Naturally!" "You made me an innocent victim of an electric shock the tank's electronic components were completely reduced to scrap our nearly-complete coffee shop was wiped out and it's all YOUR fault!" "So, I apologized, didn't I?" "You sure like to hold a grudge." "But still, it was such a good dream..." "Stop dragging people into your disgusting dreams!" "WELL, EXCUUSE ME!" "Still, you know..." "What?" "We've been staying overnight at school every night lately and we only get out at times like this, when we go to get food, right?" "So what's your point?" "Maybe that's the reason, but I wonder if the town is usually this quiet at night?" ""Special Blow-Out Sale"" "Since when did Special-Sale Bands start working the night shift?" "How should I know?" "This is a message from the Festival Committee:" "Will the leaders of all classes and clubs..." "Repeat:" "Will the leaders of all classes and clubs please come to the music room immediately." "Oh, I'm so sleepy..." "Another day at hard labor gets underway." "Say, how long have we been doing this?" "I dunno." "It's been so long, I ferget." "This is the final stretch." "Let's all hang in there!" "You're really tough..." "Huh?" "Hey!" "Hey, isn't that Onsen?" "He's still alive?" "Now THAT'S tough." "But look at his face!" "He's really wasted!" "Well, it's not surprising." "He keeps a hard schedule." "Every day's been nothing but chaos." "He's mentally and physically exhausted." "On top of which, there's a 40-ton tank creaking over the principal's head which could come crashing down at any time, no kidding." "He looks like he's a walking bundle of stress." "Overwork, lack of sleep, malnutrition, nervous system imbalance and your face is ugly." "In short, you are mentally and physically exhausted." "You're a walking bundle of stress." "Anyway, the best thing to do is get away from here and have a good rest." "I insist you go back to your boarding house and sleep until evening." "If you can't sleep because of your nerves, take these tranquilizers!" "Ah, thank you, Miss Sakura." "Keep your chin up." "Just one more day." "Tomorrow is the school festival's opening day." ""Out of Order"" "Hey, is it noon already?" "Hey, yeah, I'm hungry." "Idiot!" "That clock's been out of order for ages." "You're such dweebs." "You see it every day but you still haven't noticed!" "Hold out until the ten o'clock break!" "What are you talking about?" "You just had lunch at Hama Teashop!" "I did?" "Enough about that." "Where's Moroboshi got to?" "Where is he?" "Pull!" "Pull as hard as you can!" "Put your backs into it!" "Heave-ho!" "One-two!" "Heave-ho!" ""Boycott or Bust!"" "This is a message from the Festival Committee:" "Will the student who took the electric foot warmer from the Principal's Office please turn yourself in at once." "Repeat:" "Will the student who took the electric foot warmer from the Principal's Office please turn yourself in at once." "You just ate too much, you idiot!" "Ouch!" "Super high-potency laxative." "Take half a tablet and beat it." "Next!" "Tranquilizers?" "What was that?" "That can't be..." "Tranquilizers... then that means, what I gave him was..." "Ooops!" "I just hope I'm in time..." "It's me, Sakura!" "I'm coming in, even though I don't want to." "Turns out the medicine I gave you was..." "Ma'am!" "Naoyuki, we mustn't!" "Ooops!" ""Da Carpo Classic Song Cafe"" "Still, it's a strange story." "You leave your apartment for several days, and when you finally come back the inside is covered with dust and mushrooms, as if it were in ruins." "Rather like Urashima Taro, huh." "(A japanese "Rip Van Winkle")" "Playing around in a Dragon Palace called Tomobiki High School in a dream, while years pass by." "Did you rescue a turtle, by any chance?" "Well, lately, something's really been bothering me..." "You know the feeling you get sometimes, when you walk through a town you've never been to before and you encounter a scene that feels like you'd seen it before or you feel that what you're doing now is something you've been doing over and over, repeating events exactly..." "Sounds like "déjà-vu."" "False experiences that a person's mind creates when it gets exhausted." "I thought so too--that I was exhausted that that was why I was thinking such strange things until I saw my apartment today..." "What are you talking about?" "The Principal was saying it earlier, "Just one more day..." ""...tomorrow is the School Festival's opening day."" "I feel like I've heard those lines before..." "You're exhausted." "And because you're so tired you're making up memories of things that you've never even done." "It's only natural, putting up with those lawful brats day in and day out." "But, well, after today, that'll be over." "Tomorrow is the School Festival's..." "I started thinking about it, and for the first time, I realized that I can't clearly remember things to an extent that surprises even me." "Yesterday, the days before, even these past few hours, if I'm not careful I forget them all." "When, where, who I met, what I did..." "Tell me, how long have we been staying at school?" "Three days?" "Four?" "I dunno..." "It's been hectic, you know..." "Was it long enough ago that you could have forgotten?" "What the hell are you thinking?" "Say it!" "It's only a hypothesis, and it might be better if it were merely a delusion created by my deranged mind, of course but this is what I've been thinking;" "if, since yesterday, the day before or even further back, we're repeating the same actions the same "day before the School Festival." And tomorrow will be the same." "That's ridiculous!" "You're exhausted." "You're exhausted, and your mind is mixed up, that's all!" "You just take it easy today, and then when tomorrow comes..." "When tomorrow comes, then what?" "Are you saying that it will be a day truly different from today?" "I can't even remember a yesterday that was different from today." "Suppose, just suppose, that what you say is true." "Then why isn't anyone else going crazy?" "If the students didn't go home for such a long time their parents would get worried." "What if it's not just Tomobiki High School repeating the same day over?" "What if it's the whole town, or even the whole world that's repeating the same day, over and over?" "Enough of your ramblings!" "What you're saying doesn't make any sense at all." "It's a delusion." "It's all in your imagination!" "Miss Sakura!" "I've been trying desperately but I can't remember!" "Just what is today's date?" "Can you tell me?" "As I've been wearing these clothes for days now, being dressed like this might mean that it's winter, but why am I sweating?" "Because I'm nervous?" "Or is it because it's warm?" "And this sound, which I've been hearing recently..." "Am I imagining it, too?" "Urashima Taro spent dreamlike days at the Dragon Palace and when he returned to his beloved hometown he found that hundreds of years had already passed there." "What if, instead of just Taro alone everyone in the village had rescued that turtle?" "What if everyone in the village had gone to the Dragon Palace?" "You have spiritual power, Miss Sakura." "You would have noticed right away if something strange was happening to someone somewhere in town." "But what if something strange happened to the whole town, or the whole world including you?" "Will you cut it out!" "This is all just an hypothesis." "It's no more than conjecture." "Where's the proof?" "What if, tomorrow, we can't remember us talking like this...?" "I said cut it out!" "Help!" "Somebody save me!" "Why are you doing this?" "Come on, Onsen!" "Yeah!" "What gives!" "SHUT UP!" "I said go home, so go home!" "I don't care who says otherwise;" "I'm not letting anyone stay here tonight!" "What?" "The School Festival's big theme is management by the students themselves!" "You think you can trample on that and get away with it?" "Hey, Onsen!" "You're gonna regret this!" "At daybreak, we'll file a complaint with the Festival Committee and see that you get nailed for this!" "Right on!" "Ok, fine, fine." "Go right ahead." "That is, if you still remember this tomorrow." "You saying we'll forget?" " How can I go home looking like this?" " Just wait!" "You're gonna get yours!" "Miss Lum, Miss Shinobu, let me take you home in my car." "Thank you." "I'm going home with Darling." "So long!" "Bye bye!" "Lum!" "Put me down!" "Bye bye!" "It'll be a long time til tomorrow morning." "It feels even lonlier 'cause we've all been together these past few days." "I made all the other teachers leave too." "Aside from the Fujinamis in the school store, we're the only ones here." "Right." "I'll go find my uncle." "Don't look so disgusted." "He can be a useful monk at times like this." "Uh..." "Sakura?" "I've got a bad feeling." "Be careful." "You too." "I'll call you later." "Shimotomobiki." "Shimotomobiki." "Wow, I'm beat!" "Still, it's been a long time since I last rode a train." "Now let's see what's going on in the world." "Huh? "The Screaming Beasts"-- "Pro Wrestling News"" ""Akudama Jet Shin Demands Revenge Match Against A. Inokin!"" "Now that's hot!" "I don't know how long it's been since we've had peace and quiet, Miss Shinobu." "Wha... what the hell happened?" "It can't be... there should be an overpass here..." "It's dark." "We must have gone the wrong way." "Turn around!" "Uncle, it's me, Sakura." "Uncle!" "Hmh?" "That demented monk." "He pops up indiscriminately when you don't need him, but when you do..." "Look at the curve of those hips!" "And that..." "Man!" "What a lousy driving!" ""Shimotomobiki Station"" "It was... a ring line?" "What the hell's going on?" "This is the fifth time we've gone through here!" "Things sure are strange tonight." "Left...!" "The Gyromap is useless in areas like this..." "Wait, I bet it's this left, here!" "It's a dead end!" "Turn back!" "Don't worry." "We'll see you home safely." "It's not a labyrinth." ""Blue Turtle Taxi"" "Driver, I thought I told you to hurry." "Aren't we there yet?" "I hear you, ma'am." "Almost there." "Main Street to Tomobiki High shouldn't take more than three minutes by car." "What's taking you so long?" "Everybody says that, ma'am." "Maybe time slows down when you're in a taxi." "Ma'am, you know the story about being taken to the Dragon Palace by a turtle?" "That's how I'm feeling right now." "How do you suppose it would be if, instead of just Taro everyone in the village had ridden on the turtle's back?" "If they all went to the Dragon Palace, and came back to the village together would centuries still have passed?" "Even if none of the villagers noticed?" "What are you talking about?" "Things are a mess fer ya 'cause ya think time an' space are objective things." "Y'know how time seems to slow down when y're waiting?" "Fact is, time is simply a creation of yer human consciousness." "What if there ain't no human beings anywhere in the world?" "Wouldn't clocks and calendars be a waste?" "Maybe there ain't no such thing as time that flows in one direction from the past to the future, and never was, don'tcha think, ma'am?" "Human beings are slipshod to begin with so there ain't nothing strange 'bout time being slipshod too." "If ev'rything was all hunky-dory then THAT'd be weird!" "The only certain thing is the present, that just keeps on flowing' like this." "Ain't that the best way to think 'bout it?" "Interesting." "Maybe I really AM riding a turtle." "Wanna go straight to Dragon Palace?" "I'll give you a discount fare." "You're not an ordinary turtle..." "Show your true self!" "Crazy driver!" "You OK, ma'am?" "I lost him..." "What's this?" "We're back at school!" "Can't help it, man!" "You know anywhere else we can go?" "Uh, if it ain't the school entrance." "We're back where we started!" "Hey, are you two, by any chance...?" ""Upon breaking through the darkness, and getting off the train..." ""...we were at the station where we had got on..."" "Or something like that!" "Cool poem!" "Morons!" "This is nothing to laugh about!" "Who's there?" "What is this?" "We're back at school!" "Hey, what are you all doing here?" "If we can't get out of town, and we can't get into school, then..." "There's only one place we can go." "And so..." "We'd like you to put us up for the night." "Why you...!" "Nothing." "No answer at my place either." "What could be happening?" "Never mind your house or mine but there are 200 phones at Mendou's house, and not a single answer!" "It's almost as if we're the only people left in the world." "It's me!" "Can I come in?" "Looks like you're the only one with whom I can talk serious business, after all." "You see..." "Onsen-Mark?" "Come on, fly, fly." "Hey, pig, fly!" "Oh, how cute!" "Where'd you find this piglet?" "It's Ten's pet!" "Oh!" "Bet you're happy, huh, Ten?" "Where'd you buy him?" "I didn't." "This strange guy gave him to me the other day." "Ten!" "Is that true?" "How many times have I told you not to accept anything from strangers?" "But it's cute, so I guess it's alright this time." "Oh!" "Does that mean I can keep him?" "Still, this piglet looks a bit strange for some reason..." "What's this?" " Pass the soy sauce..." " Stay put!" "Hey, give me some soup!" "Miso soup, pickles, and fermented beans... this is pretty miserable." "Don't be so picky!" "Wish we had some beer!" "Mrs. Moroboshi, are the seconds ready yet?" "!" "More rice..." "I told you, only two pickle slices per person!" "It's even been counted!" "Don't put your chopsticks in my miso soup!" "I can't stand it!" "More rice..." "Hey, we can't be eating all day." "We gotta go to school and get to work or we won't be ready in time for the School Festival's opening day." "And that's the truth." "Yeah, today's the last day." "Well, whaddya know, it's noon already!" "Noon!" "Hey, I wonder if our classroom is still in one piece!" "I bet the tank fell through the floor." "Yeah, that tank is a problem." "Even if we managed to open our shop the floor would give way if even four or five people came in." "And Darling will hide in it right away, so let's move it somewhere else!" "Move it, if you can!" "Well, we gotta do something." "What do you mean, "do something?"" "Do you know what I went through to get it in there?" " You did it because you wanted to!" " You don't eat anything, do you?" "Darling?" "Darling?" "What's the matter?" "Darling's disappeared." "What, again?" "I bet he's hiding somewhere, as usual." "He probably went to school ahead of us." "You've got to let him loose once in a while." "'scuse me, 'scuse me, let me through!" "My... my tank... my Leopard..." "Can't blame it, in this heat." "Tanks don't go bathing, you idiot!" "Hmm?" "What's with those bubbles?" "Huh?" "Where am I?" "Hey, Mendou!" "What are you doing here?" "I see..." "So that's how it is..." "So that's how it is!" "You want to ridicule me, Shutaro Mendou, that badly, do you!" "?" "This is the absolute last straw!" "Hey, hey, Mendou, what are you say..." "What's going on!" "Come back here!" " Help!" " I'll kill you!" "Oh, Darling!" "You're wrong, I tell you!" "It wasn't me!" "How can I believe you!" "DIE!" "Stop it!" "Stop it I say!" "You, you, you..." "You!" "You!" "DIE!" "Darling!" "There you are!" "Where've you been?" "Oh no!" "Lum!" "Come back here!" "Hold it!" "Darling, come out before I count to three!" "One!" "Oh no!" "Run!" "Two!" "THREE!" "Twice is tragedy, but thrice is comedy, as someone once said." "But I guess I can't leave them to repeat this for a lifetime." ""Japanese Pancake Restaurant"" "And there you have it." "Actually, when Miss Sakura told me last night, I couldn't believe it, either." "But given the incident with my tank today, and what happened last night too many strange things have been happening lately." "Meaning that there is now no doubt that something is happening." "So I propose that we form a Reality-Check Committee in order to find the facts through our own efforts..." "Listen when someone's talking!" "Don't shout like that, Mendou." "I am listening, but, well, how do I put this?" "It doesn't seem so important" "What you're trying to say is that space and time are all mixed up, right?" "OK." "What say we agree on that?" "Sure 'nuff!" "But, if so, then what damage does that really cause us?" "This is the question I must ask!" "Hail the President!" "Onsen-Mark disappeared?" "Cherry's missing?" "Hit it, boys!" "HURRAH!" "I rest my case." "A creepy monk or a students' nemesis or two gone missing won't get us off our butts!" "This is going nowhere." "But now that I think about it, it was silly of me to even talk to you." "Miss Sakura..." "Hold on." "The mixed fried noodles will be here soon." "Then I'll go on ahead." "Hey, Mendou... here." "What is this?" "Why, it's the bill." "I'll certainly pay for Miss Sakura, Miss Lum, and Miss Shinobu but why should I have to pay for the rest of you?" "!" "Everything that's happened so far originates from Tomobiki High." "Whether a supernatural phenomenon beyond human comprehension or a conspiracy of persons unknown..." "Whatever, checking at this time of night, when no one's around should turn up something." "We're going in!" "Just to be on the safe side, Miss Sakura and Miss Shinobu will wait here." "The rest of you, follow me!" "Right!" "Did you see his sword?" "He broke it this afternoon but now it's grown back!" "Just like a lizard's tail." "One can't see one's own back, so he wouldn't notice it!" "Convenient, eh?" "Kakugari and Chibi, search the first floor!" "Aye aye, sir!" "Megane and Perm, take the second floor!" "Yes sir!" "Moroboshi, take the third floor!" "Miss Lum, to the clock tower with me!" "OK!" "I'm no little kid, and I'm not playing Explorer." "I'm going to the school store and have a little fun with Ryuu..." "I'm scared!" "I'm scared of the dark!" "I'm scared of the dark!" "How did Mendou get here...?" "That Mendou really played a dirty trick on us." "He took us out, knowing full well we couldn't afford it." "Then he used his offer to pay to make this deal with us." "And we have no idea what we're looking for or how to find it!" "He's totally clueless!" "He's just winging it!" "Hey, Megane!" "You listening?" "Yes, I am!" "Shutaro!" "Shutaro!" "Where could have he gone?" "Shutaro!" "Where are you?" "Darling!" "Darling!" "Ka..." "Kakugari, let's turn on the hall lights..." "I would, but in this darkness..." "We... we found 'em!" "Now, which one is it...?" "Who cares!" "Turn them all on!" "I..." "I'm all over the place!" "I..." "Darling!" "I'm scared of the dark!" "I'm scared of the dark!" "Darling!" "Miss Lum!" " What's taking so long?" " Don't rush me!" "Darling!" "Miss Lum!" "Looks like it's begun." "I wonder if Mendou and the others are OK." "It's not life threatening, but they'll likely run out like scared rabbits." "Look closely at the school building!" "Eh?" "Oh!" "Built 60 years ago." "School building of wood and mortar construction." "Three stories and a clock tower." "Since when have there been four stories?" "I can just imagine what that crew might be going through in there!" "You mean you've known all along?" "The recent string of events are indeed connected to Tomobiki High." "But we won't likely find out anything by searching the building." "What we need to do is make something happen, like last night." "There will be a reaction of some kind." "And the only way to find the solution is to observe that reaction!" "Come on, it's your turn now!" "Darling, where are you?" "Darling?" "Darling!" "Retreat!" "Retreat!" "Retreat!" "We're bugging out!" "Huh?" "Hey, what's going on?" "What are they doing here this late at night?" "I don't see how you can watch what looks like the same show every night without getting bored." "Madam..." "No, Junji, we mustn't..." "All right!" "Good riddance to this place!" "Huh?" "What'cha doing?" "Hey you guys!" "What kind of stunt are you pulling?" "There!" "Gotcha!" ""Out of Order"" "So what do we do now?" "I bet wherever we go, we'll end up same as last night." "Mach Speed Noodles, on Tomobiki Ginza Street!" "What, are you hungry?" "Mach Speed Noodle Stand is really the Mendou Family Tomobiki Panic Center." "There's a Harrier there for emergency escapes." "I get it." "We can use a plane." "All right!" ""Tomobiki Ginza"" "What a mess!" "I guess this means a bite to eat is out of the question." "Mendou Estate, Mendou Estate, this is Shutaro." "Do you read me?" "Over." "Yes, this is Shanghai Chinese." "Thank you." "We sent three pork noodles to you." "Nobody ordered any!" "Miss Sakura, climb aboard." "I'll send a chopper as soon as I get home so the rest of you, wait here..." "We've come too far to be left behind!" "We're all in this together, enemies in the same boat, to Hell if need be." "Do what you like!" "Just don't blame me if you fall off!" "We did it!" ""Oh, wings, there be the lights of Tomobiki." Or something..." "You poetic stud!" ""We're off to Outer Space, We're leaving Tomobiki..."" "Can it!" "You really are tone deaf, aren't you?" "Quiet!" "It... can't be..." "It can't be!" "It's impossible!" "Mendou!" "Circle around the city limits!" "Unless I'm mistaken, that was..." "Uncle Cherry!" "Yuck!" "I was thinking I hadn't seen him lately, but to find him here...!" "Hey, look!" "Onsen-Mark!" "Out of gas?" "It can't be!" "We've only been flying for a few minutes!" "What!" "No choice, we're going back." "Going back?" "To Tomobiki?" "Where else?" "You want to land on Cherry's head?" "No good!" "We won't even make it to Mach Speed Noodles!" "I'm gonna make a forced landing close by." "Hang on tight!" "It sure is noisy for so late at night." "Mr. and Mrs. Moroboshi, we're home!" "Good evening!" "Can we stay tonight too?" "Thanks!" "Now just a minute!" "A can of ripe whole tomatoes, 12 packs ready-to-eat beef bowl 16 cup fried noodles--the ones with soup packets, 3 1-liter bottles cola 6 bags frozen sweet corn, 5 cans barbecued sardines and some canned tuna." "Hey, are you with me?" "You're too fast for me!" "Perm!" "You think flakey tuna will be OK?" "I guess, but I don't know for sure." "2 bags light flour, 12 bags spaghetti, 2 cans safflower oil 3 cases fish-flavor rice spice, 5 boxes cheese crackers, 2 Mabodofu base." "¥128, ¥230, ¥572, ¥100, and ¥125." "For a total of ¥10,823." "OK, let's go." "If we mess around, Ataru's mother's gonna let us have it." "Chibi!" "What's that chocolate bar doing in your shirt?" "Well, I've wanted to try one for a while now." "Uh, it's got bean jam inside..." "In matters of food procurement, we follow Ataru's mother's instructions even for a single piece of bubblegum." "You haven't forgotten that great principle, have you, Chibi?" "The food in this town, to even a grain of rice or a single MM is the community property of all!" "Out of selfish desire, you laid hands on this!" "The penalty for that case is DEATH!" "I..." "I'll put it back..." "Take him away!" "We'll convene a people's court when we get home and decide on punishment!" "NO!" "I don't want to be flayed alive!" "How stupid..." "I.O.U. ¥10,823." "Let's go!" "My name is Megane." "Once I was an ordinary school student, attending Tomobiki High enduring those boring days, with my head in the clouds." "But the traumatic sight I saw from the Harrier's cockpit that night changed my destiny forever!" "Since the day after we made our forced landing at Ataru's in the Harrier the world has changed its guise, as if turning its back on us." "The same town, the same corner stores, the same public parks..." "But something is different." "The shadows of cars going to and fro have disappeared from the roads the sound of pianos in townhouse gardens has also stopped and there is no one wolfing down a meal at the beef-bowl shop counter." "Everyone else in town, no, everyone else in the world suddenly vanished, leaving only us." "The time of desolation passed in a matter of days." "Who in the world would have imagined such a silent, simple end?" "The civilization that mankind built up in the past, gradually, over millenia has come to an end." "But for those of us who are left, the end is nothing but a new beginning." "The day that heralded the end of the world was the beginning of the days of our struggle for survival." "Strangely enough, the convenience store near Ataru's house has not given way to the encroaching ruin, and its gallant shelves provides us with an abundant stock of food, daily sundries, and the like." "Stranger still, Ataru's house still has electricity, gas and water and, most surprising of all, the newspaper is still delivered." "Naturally, in the just cause of mankind's continued existence we have chosen Ataru's house as the base of our lives." "But for some reason, Miss Sakura soon opened Haratama--a beef-bowl shop declaring that she wanted to live on her own." "Soon after, Ryuunosuke and her father reopened Hama Teashop near the ruins of the school." "And Mendou drives around in his tank all day long probably to deal with unfulfilled needs." "Every so often, he repeat-fires the cannon." "I don't know what's bugging him, but it isn't pretty to watch." "Who knows how much time has passed since that fateful night?" "But in this world we're building, clocks and calendars are useless." "The necessities of life provided to us, we struggle to survive." "The everlasting dream of all mankind, Shangri-la is ours to make, with our own hands." "I feel both ecstasy and unease at being a chosen one." "When I realize that the future of mankind rests wholly on our shoulders I can't help but feel an emotion similar to vertigo..." "Hey, what's the matter, Megane?" "Probably sunstroke, I told him to wear a hat, but he wouldn't listen." "...excerpted from "The Prehistory of Tomobiki", by Megane Volume 1: "Beyond the End of the World", Prologue, Chapter 3." "More miso..." "Get your chopsticks out of my bowl..." "Pass the onions..." "But, only noodles is..." "Boy, I wish we had some beer!" "Here you go!" "Seconds!" "Right on!" "Mrs. Moroboshi, it's not enough." "I need to take them more, and quickly...!" "OK, OK, OK." "Really, Ataru alone is trouble enough." "Oh, Shinobu?" "Use the spring onion all the way up to the green part, OK?" "Yes, all right, ma'am." "Your helping out saves my life, Shinobu." "I wish you could be here all the time." "Oh, my!" "Mrs. Moroboshi!" "Come swimming with us, Shutaro." "Ah, Miss Lum, I'm a little busy right now..." "How come you're not playing with the rest of us?" "I have a little checking up to do..." "See you." "Lum, we better hurry, or the chilled watermelon will get warm." "That's cold!" "Miss Lum, what do you think of this world?" "It's lots of fun!" "'Bye now!" "Mrs. Moroboshi, it's all gone!" "OK!" "How's the salad?" "Did you use the cabbage all the way up to the core?" "Yes, Mrs. Moroboshi." "Huh, oh, Lum!" "Where's Shinobu?" "Gee, I dunno." "That's strange." "Where could she be at a time like this?" "Well, I expect she'll be back shortly." "After all, where else can she go?" "But Miss Shinobu didn't come back, not even the next morning." "And the next day..." "Ryuunosuke!" "...Miss Ryuunosuke disappeared, leaving a pot of stew cooking just as if she had stepped out for a quick errand." "Despite our desperate searching, the two of them remained missing." "It's Miss Shinobu!" "She's here!" "As I thought!" "Miss Shinobu!" "Miss Shinobu!" "Calm down, Mendou!" "A similar figure, looking like Ryuunosuke, is probably nearby..." "They are but shadows!" "Shadows?" "Thanks for your help, I'll pull you back up now." "Setting aside Uncle, there's Onsen-Mark, who discovered our predicament plus Shinobu and Ryuunosuke, at whom Ataru made passes..." "Any way you look at it, I'm next." ""I should like to speak with you, with no one else aroud..."" ""...about this pitiful world."" ""I have an idea regarding the life we should live."" ""I will wait for you this evening in the Tomobiki High School Clock Tower."" ""Sakura."" "Sakura!" "Sorry to keep you waiting...!" "Nice of you to come, Moroboshi!" "Huh?" "Mendou, what are you doing here?" "I sent for him." "Then all that about you and I and nobody else around was..." " A lie." " I'm leaving." "Leaving?" "Where would you go, Moroboshi?" "I really do have something to talk you about." "You don't mind just listening for a bit, do you, Moroboshi?" "Uh, no..." ""Haratama Beef-Bowl"" "Listen, Moroboshi." "I wasn't driving my tank around just for fun while the rest of you slumbered and partied in this screwed-up world." "Miss Sakura and I were examining the structure of this place and working out a plan to somehow return to our real home." "Sounds like a lot of trouble." "Can you imagine how hard those days were?" "I wanted to forget everything and spend happy days with Lum too!" "Well, you shouldn't have acted so weird." "What!" "How dare you, feeling no concern for the situation you've been left in and just getting roly-poly fat...!" "Stop it!" "Calm down, Mendou, and get to the point." "Oh, excuse me, I just..." "Because you are SO stupid, I'll explain this logically and systematically." "Now, this table represents our world, riding on that giant turtle." "In other words, this is Tomobiki Town." "You saw it too, right?" "Yeah, I saw it." "Then this is your house." "Using the range of the Leopard's cannon as a ruler, I determined that it is the center of this 2-km diameter circular world." "It is literally the center of the world." "It's unusual enough that such a world is flying through the sky on a turtle." "The real problem is something else." "Why do gas, water, and electricity continue to be supplied only to the house of the Moroboshi's?" "Or rather, from where are they supplied?" "Have there been any bills?" "No, not a one." "Why hasn't the convenience store where you, Megane and the rest pig out ever run out of food?" "Going back further, where did all the town's inhabitants disappear to?" "And in one night at that!" "Why?" "How should I know?" "Other than those, our lives are without inconvenience..." "But that's not all!" "In order to make things convenient for us this world has been turned totally upside down and made more nonsensical than words can describe." "The existence of a world like this is physically impossible." "Since it does exist, then..." "It's only in a dream, right?" "Moroboshi!" "You mean, YOU..." "I figured it out a long time ago." "Not just me, Megane and the others, too." "We just didn't talk much about it, as it was too obvious a solution." "Looks like you went to all that trouble for nothing after all, Mendou." "If you know so much, why play your days away?" "Your attitude infuriates me!" "Right now, there's nothing to do but play!" "We don't know whose dream it is!" "Oh, you don't know?" "Oh, I see!" "You really don't know?" "!" "Serves you right!" "You wouldn't know." "I'm drowning in waves of laughter!" "Because I know!" "You see, Moroboshi, it's a simple process of elimination." "It's obviously not me, Miss Sakura, or the missing Shinobu or Ryuunosuke." "We exclude Mr. and Mrs. Moroboshi because having so many people in their house inconveniences them." "Clearly, it's not you, either, Moroboshi." "If it were, this world would be full of women." "You got that right." "When we also exclude Ten, his pet piglet and Ryuunosuke's father, who's now without his only "son" we are left with five people." "Megane and Co. are enjoying living under the same roof with Lum but the problem is that all four of them are together." "If it was one of their dreams, each would think only of himself." "None of them are so philanthropic as to consider the other three." "Which leaves..." "Lum?" "I wonder." "What?" "You saying my reasoning is flawed?" "I don't know about the rest, why would she eliminate Shinobu and Ryuu?" "She's not the kind of girl who'd do something like that." "We've been together long enough for me to know that much about her." "Damn your impudence, Moroboshi!" "No, I agree with him on that point." "So far, you've been on the mark with the main points of this discussion." "Even if Lum is the Princess, it is the turtle who invites her to Dragon Palace!" "We're forgetting the possibility of a third person, who created all of this to make Lum's wish come true!" "Oh, yeah, that's right!" "What are you so pleased about?" "I'm talking about you." "Huh?" "Uh, what do you mean by...?" "I'm saying that you're the turtle!" "Come on, Sakura!" "Are you saying that I created this world?" "Precisely." "Sakura." "A mere high school student couldn't possibly do something like this!" "That mere high school student..." "is over there." "Come on out!" "Hey!" "Hold it, hold it." "The star makes his entrance." "Thank you, thank you." "What the hell...?" "The schemer is out-schemed!" "It's as if in setting a trap, you got caught in one." "Did you think, upon receiving my letter, that he would wait until dark?" "I went to see Sakura right after I got it... at noon!" "This time won't be like last time." "Let's see you escape this enclosure!" "It's all over!" "Ah, so I've been found out." "Shame on you two." "You!" "Monster!" "Prepare to..." "Stay back." "You can't handle this." "You look like Mujaki; am I correct?" "Yes, indeed, I am Mujaki." "How do you do?" "But I'm surprised that you know me, Miss." "Why shouldn't I?" "You are the Dream Demon known as Mujaki." "As your name says, you are an evil demon who delights in manipulating dreams, and planting seeds of evil in people." "The underbelly of bloody history." "It is there, in that darkness, that your form is constantly lurking." "Who was it that turned a shy art student into a crazed dictator?" "Why did an emperor known for his love of poetry and of good government become a bloody tyrant, and set his capital afire?" "A devoted disciple betrayed his lord and an honorable man turned his sword on a close friend!" "Et tu, Brute?" "The temptation in Buddha's mind when he was harvesting the tree of knowledge Adam and Eve eating the forbidden fruit all because they lost themselves in twisted dreams you inspired them with!" "Hey, hey, wait a minute, Lady." "What authority are you citing?" ""Encyclopedia of Evil Spirits..." Authority?" "It's all right here in the indispensible reference of all 100,000 Japanese sorceresses!" "No more excuses!" "I don't know what you're using Lum's dream for but having revealed your true self, we have now thwarted your scheme." "Release us from this dream world at once and BEGONE!" "Listening to her talk makes me seem like the very Devil himself." "That's what you are!" "Don't be ridiculous!" "Sure, I know magic, unlike you ordinary humans and I might have lived a little longer than you types as well." "But..." "Oh, I see." "My long lifespan makes me seem evil, doesn't it..." "Yeah, I've made a lot of different people dream." "I've even given dreams to some of those you mentioned, it's true." "But don't get me wrong." "The dreams I make are only those that they desire." "So if a dream turns out evil, it's because that person has evil desires." ""Whether something is used for good or evil depends on human minds."" "A bit of sophistry often used by scientists." "There were a lot of good dreams, too." "But they never last very long." "They all get out of hand and become nightmares." "Until finally that good-for-nothing comes and eats them all up." "When that happens, I look for a fragment of yet another dream running here, there and everywhere." "It's always the same thing over again." "I got sick and tired of it." "It got so I was thinking--If I quit making people dream, just disappeared maybe that would make people happier than if I stayed around." "That was when I met HER...!" "It was at some aquarium somewhere..." "I knew right away that she'd been born under a very unusual star." "Well, she came from a different one..." "Excuse me, but do you like watching fish?" "Not particularly." "Then you must have had a fight with your boyfriend, right?" "Pretty girls like you don't normally come to places like this, all alone." "Oh, sorry... please allow me to introduce myself." "Mr..." "Mujaki?" "I'm Lum." "Miss I'm Lum." "I mean, Miss Lum." "A nice name, sort of sweet, sort of bitter." "That was our first meeting..." "Dreams?" "Yes, making dreams is my work." "Happy dreams, sad dreams, scary dreams, all kinds." "But lately, I've become tired." "I'm thinking of retiring." "I've been having trouble dealing with people..." "Maybe I'm just too nervous." "Hey!" "Why not let me make your dream for my last job?" "On the house, of course." "What do you say?" "My dream?" "I've been searching for a long time..." "I've always wanted to make an eternal dream world out of a pure dream a dream that wouldn't turn into a nightmare along the way." "With you, it's possible." "I know it is." "Now, tell me your dream." "OK... my dream is... to live happily ever after with Darling and Mr. and Mrs. Moroboshi and Ten, Shutaro, Megane and his friends." "That's my dream." "And thank you for listening." "For one so young, you're quite something, Miss." "I wondered for a moment what I was going to do." "But it's checkmate, and your youth has betrayed you." "After all, I've been around as long as the history of mankind's dreams so you were actually no threat." "Well, take it easy." "Oh, I'll tell you this, for the sake of Miss Lum's and my integrity:" "That story was true." "Just so you know." "Pleasant dreams!" "The shadows of the people who vanished hold up the dream town in return, they all get the dreams they wanted." "How's that for service?" "This, too, is a token of my sentiment." "Conscientious, aren't I." "Still, from now on this dream will be peaceful too." "All that's left in it are the small fry and the idiots, after all." "Naturally, I'll personally take that fool Ataru's place." "You have to have steady nerves to take care of dreams." "They're so delicate..." "What... what are you doing here?" "How did you get out?" "When you made your advance to Lum, I jumped from the veranda planning to trash you... and I fell into the water." "I just now crawled out." "OK, I see!" "I'll put you back." "Just hold still, son." "Don't be so pushy, Old Man." "What say we make a deal?" "Don't be silly!" "What possible benefit would I get from making a deal with you?" "Sakura gave me this for self-defense, but..." "What was that deal, son?" "This is great!" "My eternal dream has come true at last!" "...anything, your Highness..." "...Ataru, my dearest love..." "OK, OK, one at a time." "Yes, I know." "Well, if this'll take care of everything, fine, but it's not my style." "But now that I think about it, this was bound to happen." " This was a pointless deal." " Hey, Old Man!" "Huh?" "Now what?" "I've looked and looked, and Lum isn't here." "Where is she?" "WHAT?" "!" "What did you just say?" "Lum's not here." "Why isn't she here?" "Hey, what's the matter?" "I can't believe you!" "You were trying so hard to get away from her!" "Oh, I get it." "Long life doesn't always make one wiser." "OK, listen up!" "I'm in love with Lum, just like all the other girls." "But when I try to see another girl, she interferes, which is why I run away." "You got that?" "!" "If so, bring her here." "A harem without Lum is an imperfect dream!" "It's a beef-bowl without the beef!" "I'll wreck it, and go back to reality!" "Bring Lum here now!" "I've had it with you!" "Quit fooling around!" "I dare you to do it!" "What's this?" "OH!" "No, no,no!" "Give it back, please!" "That precious thing calls Baku..." "Oops!" "Baku?" "Oh, yeah, Sakura mentioned him once." "The legendary creature that feeds on nightmares, right?" "Aha!" "Not again." "Not again." "Why do humans have to be like this?" "What's it gonna be, Old Man?" "You gonna produce Lum or not?" "Blockhead!" "I can't do it." "This world is part of her dream to begin with!" "Then I'll use this to wreck this dream and return to reality." "Is that what you want?" "No!" "I'm going to protect her pure dream!" "No!" "Not again!" "Pure?" "You shanghaied us without our knowledge!" "Egotist!" "I'm blowing this horn!" "Stop!" "Stop stop stop stop!" "Do you have any idea what'll happen if you do that?" "You're just like Lum." "Don't you understand that I do things without thinking of the consequences?" "And now, back to reality!" "Wha... what's all that noise?" "It's him!" "That good-for-nothing is running amuck!" "He's wrecking my precious dream!" "Stupid!" "Idiot!" "Moron!" "S.O.B.!" "Oh, calm down, it's just a dream." "You can always make more!" "You don't understand at all!" "What's the difference between reality and the dreams I make?" "I've been making and living in other people's dreams since I was born!" "Can't I have a dream of my own, just this once?" "Oh, why do they always have to be destroyed?" "Well, if it isn't the unlucky young man!" "Cherry!" "Where've you been hiding, you good-for-nothing monk?" "Do something about all this!" ""Existence is Nothingness." "Nothingness is Existence."" "This world is nothing but dreams and illusions." "If you open your eyes, all will be solved!" "YOU, I won't let you go!" "Where am I?" "What've I been doing?" "So you finally woke up." "How you can snore so loudly in this cold weather is beyond me." "I get it..." "I fell asleep on the way to get take-out food for midnight snacks!" "So that town and that Mujaki guy were all a dream." "But it sure seemed terribly realistic, didn't it..." "Ha." "Well, dreams are highly realistic while you're dreaming." "If you think about it, there's no guarantee that you and I talking like this in this instant, isn't a dream." "Heh Heh..." "That's ridiculous." "Nothing ridiculous about it." "I told you I wouldn't let you go." "You're the only one who will not escape!" "Look out!" "It's a red light, you idiot!" "Now I knock us out again and escape!" "My head was harder than his..." "Ataru!" "Ataru, wake up, Ataru!" "You don't have time to be unconscious!" "Ataru!" "Ataru!" "Moroboshi is awake!" "The indomitable Ataru Moroboshi!" "He fights again for the fate of Earth, but there are only ten minutes left!" "Can he grab the horns of Lum the devil-girl and save mankind?" "Hang in there, Ataru, if you want to marry me!" "Yes, anything goes, if it means we can be married!" "Hey, Lum!" "See this?" "Hey!" "That's my only top!" "Give it back!" "I win...!" "Ho... hold it!" "This all started when I grabbed her horns!" "Oh!" "Time has run out!" "Time has run out!" "This is terrible!" "What were you thinking, Ataru Moroboshi, enemy of Earth?" "You flaming moron!" "Good-for-nothing!" "Imbecile!" "Kill him!" "Germ!" "Flea!" "Idiot!" "I've done it!" "Success at last!" "Congratulations, Doctor!" "My name is Franken-Ataru." "After a period of unconsciousness, cause unknown I returned to life as a man-made golem." "It was indeed fortunate that for some reason, I was resistant to high-voltage electricity." "Fortunate?" "All that awaited me in this world were stares filled with hate." "People hated me and none would come near me, let alone talk to me." "Hey!" "What are you doing to that girl!" "Keep your hands off!" "Hey!" "You stupid bastard!" "Enough with the stupid tricks!" "I'm going back to reality!" ""The two approached one another with the speed of a gust of wind heading for the point where life and death meet."" "I... won..." "Are you awake, Ataru?" "It may surprise you, but listen to what I have to say." "Your mother and I probably won't be alive when you hear this tape." "We made every effort to find some way to awaken you and Lum from your mysterious sleep." "But present-day science, not just that of Earth, but of Lum's planet as well couldn't revive the two of you." "Forgive us." "We've staked our last hopes, and your fates, on the future." "We thought that science a few centuries from now might have a chance of awakening you." "Ataru, you're strong enough to live anywhere, anywhen." "Lum's parents said to tell you to take good care of her." "That's all there is to say..." "Oh, yes we had to take out a 500-year loan in your name to pay the cold-sleep fees!" "Goodbye, Ataru." "An emergency 400 years ago?" "!" "Wow!" "It was a stage set!" "Hey you!" "You're not supposed to exit this dream before I've got the next one ready, you idiot!" "That one sure struck home." "I bet you're glad it was a dream, huh." "Good thing it wasn't reality." "You can do it over because it was a dream." "You can repeat it any number of times." "Hey you know this story?" "A man who dreamed he was a butterfly woke up and couldn't tell which was real and which the dream." "Maybe the real "he" is in the butterfly's dream." "See, whether you call something reality or a dream you ultimately think of it in the same way." "That being the case, isn't it better to live a fun life in a dream?" "Even you if you don't ask for anything outrageous I'll make you tons of good dreams." "The dreams I make are the same as reality." "Therefore, they ARE reality!" "I won't do anything bad." "So trust me." "I'll be waiting up above." "Come up and see me when you're ready." "Oh, yeah, all you have to do is climb this stairway." "Well, I'll be waiting!" "Do you really want to go back?" "Well, you see, I want to be free from a girl, because I want to keep loving her." "You probably don't understand, seeing as how you're a girl too..." "Want me to tell you how?" "What!" "You mean you know how to get back to reality?" "Everyone knows how." "They just forget when they wake up." "You jump off from here, like this." "And before you hit bottom and wake up you call out the name of the person you really want to see." "If you can't say that one special name, then you don't really want to wake up." "Oh, that will be easy." "There are lots of girls I want to see." "Then you will promise me something?" "Do the RIGHT thing!" "Ran!" "Oyuki!" "Benten!" "Shinobu!" "Miss Sakura!" "Ryoko!" "Otama!" "Ryuu!" "Tsuyuko!" "Kintaro's Nanny!" "The Flower Shop Girl!" "Kaede!" "The Dolphin Girl!" "Mother!" "LUM!" "You don't know what I've been through!" "Wake up, you jerk!" "Darling..." "Darling, I had such a dream." "There was you, Ten, your mother and father and Megane and..." "Lum, that was a dream." "It was only a dream." "Oh, keep going..." "D... don't be ridiculous!" "I can't do something so embarrassing in front of all these people!" "Why not?" "Why not?" "Why can't you do it in front of people?" "You can if you love me." "Well?" "When did I ever say I loved you?" "What!" "You still act like this?" " I can't stand it!" " Hey, stop it!" "Stop it!" "Hey, they're at it again." "I swear, they'll never learn, and they'll never change." "They'll do that for the rest of their lives." "Too true." "Keeping up with those two takes more effort than normal." "Shall we go?" "URUSEI YATSURA 2 "BEAUTIFUL DREAMER"" "Once again, you've become capricious." "I'm sad, we're finished now, aren't we." "You're dreaming of that girl again, I bet." "With a sigh, I say so long, in my dream." "She's an angel--No!" "She's a devil." "Oh, as far as you're concerned she's a girl setting sweet trap." "Your love is paradise and so often it seemed..." ""I love you" was on the tip of my tongue." "Now you've put your arm around her slim waist." "I'm sad, we're finished now, aren't we." "Shall we erase our memories forever?" "With a sigh, I say so long, in my dream." "She's a Venus--No!" "She's a beast." "Oh, as far as I'm concerned she's the girl who destroyed my dream of love." "Your love is paradise but since it can't return..." "I bit my lip on "I love you."" "Maybe, maybe, maybe love is a boomerang tossed away." "She's an angel--No!" "She's a devil." "Oh, as far as you're concerned she's a girl setting sweet trap." "Your love is paradise but since it can't return..." "I bit my lip on "I love you.""
