"You can have the younger one." "No, thanks." "Is he a foreigner?" "Half-Japanese." "He'd be scary if he wasn't." "He's cool!" "He's wearing a pink shirt!" "Cool!" "You have the kid brother." "I don't want him!" "It's freezing out there." "I don't want to go out." "Maybe it's hay-fever season." "It's about that time." "Oh, I saw "Hannibal" on satellite last night." "So did I."

"Tom Cruise?" "What?" "DiCaprio?" "No." "You mean him?" "Hannibal?" "Are you sick?" "No, but..." "I started thinking about that movie yesterday." ""Hannibal"..." "You OK?" "Heart-broken, maybe." "Huh?" "You said he looked like Hannibal." "You said he looked like someone." "I'm getting all split ends." "I should cut it all off." "I wouldn't." "You like it long?" "I like it short."

""Hana The Sweetie"." "No." ""Hana The Funky"!" "Which one?" " "Sweetie"?" " You're kinda funky, eh." "Let's call you that." "Right, everyone?" " We just had a boy." " Congratulations." "I'd like Your Holiness to give him a lucky name." "If he's my son he won't be too bright." "How about "Live-Forever"?" "Why "Live-Forever"?" "He may not be too bright... but at least... he'll have a long life." "Would it help if he had a long name, too?" "There's no balls... in it, Bang!" "The audience will fall asleep!" "Aw, man!"

" No, I didn't." " Yes, you did!" "You did!" "I did?" "Oh, no!" "You really do have amnesia!" "What are we gonna do?" "!" "I really can't remember." "Could you describe the circumstances for me?" "About when I said I loved you... if I really did." "You did." "Could you tell me more about it?" "Well, I'm not the one who said it." "I don't mind waiting till you remember." "Mr. Miyamoto..." "Anyway, how's your brother?" "My brother?" "I don't have a brother." "Didn't you tell me you did?" "No, I didn't." "He looks foreign." "Foreign?" "Last year you both took the train."

" You don't remember?" " No, no." "Do I know him?" "He's in my club." "Then how should I know him?" "Yeah." "I guess not." "I've got to get back." "Bye!" "Hana!" "There's something lacking." "Are we really "going out" or what?" "What's wrong?" "You're the one who said you liked me." " You realize that?" " Yes." " No, you don't." " Yes, I do." "You don't." "Not in your heart." "That's what's lacking." "I don't know whether I love you or not." "And you don't remember saying that you loved me." "What does that make us, I want to know." "Lovers?" "I don't know..." "See what I mean?" "But lately I get the feeling... that I like you," "I think." " Really?" " Yeah." " I dream about you all the time." " What dreams?" "I can't say." "Tell me!" "Maybe they'll come true." "I dream that the police take you away." "I hope that doesn't come true." "It's after me!" "Another one!" "Keep back." "When I activate the virus scan it goes all weird." "How?" "I can't access the Internet." " Let me check it." " Really?" "!" "All these flowers..." "It's like a florist." "Can I talk to you for a minute?"

"They want me to come to their office!" "Oh yeah?" "Come with me." "When?" "Now!" "I can't." "It's in Harajuku." "I can't, I said." "Sure you can!" "Look, we're grown up now." "We're not glued to each other." "I mean... we're still friends, but..." "OK." "I won't call again." "Hello?" "Alice?" "Come on, Alice!" "That's not fair!" "What?" "What happened?" "Something's wrong..." "Have you had that dream again?" "About the police?" "No." "Lately I dream about slugs." "What kinda dream is that?" "There's a huge slug chasing me." "I run like hell... and I finally get to where I think I'm safe..." "When I turn around..." "A slug?" "No, you." "But for some reason I don't know who you are." "So I ask, "Who are you?"" "And you say..." ""I'm a slug."" "I turn around... and you are a slug." "It sure has been raining a lot lately." "Um..." "When will I see you again?" "Hm?" "Yeah..." "What's wrong?" "Nothing." "The light's changing!" "Made it!" "Mr. Miya?" "What's wrong?" " Are you OK?" " I'm fine." "Mr. Miya?" "I need to talk to you." "What about?" "You have a computer, don't you." "Yeah..." "Turn it on."

"No." "Your ex-girlfriend." "Bullshit!" "It's true." "But you only went out with her because she forced you." "That's when I came along." "It was love at first sight." "That's when you told me." "She found out about it and started stalking you." "She took these pictures and sent them to me... as a kind of threat." "But I'd started to like you, too." "So I didn't let her frighten me... and I loved you right up till now." "Bullshit." "It's true." "You're awful!" "Peeking into my computer..." "You've never trusted me." " Not really." " I'm..." "That makes me sad." "I'm sorry." "Excuse me..." "What?" "Is Tetsuko Arisugawa here?" "Alice!" "Um... are you Tetsuko Arisugawa?" "What do you want?" "!" "We broke up!" "Go away!" " We're not friends any more." " OK." "I mean it!" "Not friends or anything." "If we see each other, we don't even speak." "OK." "But why do I have to be the ex-girlfriend?" "Thank you!" "I can't breathe!" "I'm embarrassed." " Where?" " Here?" "Take it!" "An arabesque?" "Nagayo!" "Nagayo!" "Yeah, that's cute!" "That hurts!" "No, don't!" "OK." "We should smile." "The one with her legs... open widest at the top." "Perfect." "Like that?" "Good." " How's this?" " Excellent." "Here goes..." "Toes together..." " Hold it." " Looking where?" "Say "cheese"!" "This is hard!" "Relax!" "This is the last one." "Quick, take it!" "Thank you so much." "Alice..." " Are you alone?" " Yeah." "You too?" "Where's Hana?" " We're not friends any more." " You're not?" "Did you have a fight?" "Order number 7 is ready." "You shouldn't fight!" "It wasn't a fight." "I eat a lot." "Me too." "There's so much to choose from!" "Sorry." "Oh!" "Hello!" "Um... she lives next door." "Hello." "Hello, "Hana"." "Hello." "Uh, Hana..." "Bye bye." "Goodbye Hana." "Goodbye." "Bye." " Bye bye." " See you." "She didn't even touch her food." "What are you having?" "This looks good." "I'll have that, then." "I'm back." "Tetsuko?" "What are you making?" "Today we have sukiyaki." "I'm sorry." "I already ate." "Sorry." "I'm beat..." "Come on, Mom!" "How can I eat sukiyaki alone!" "?" "Why did you make it?" "I see you're mad at me." "That's right." "Ouch!" "Have some!" "I'll eat the meat." "If I have sukiyaki..." "there has to be meat." "I don't mean to stick my nose in... but you're an adult." "If he's not talking marriage, don't get serious." "The yen's gone down again." " Where's Alice?" " I don't know." " Is she OK?" " Dunno." " No?" " Hana and Alice aren't friends." "Really." "Did you have a fight?" "No." "Alice told me." "You keep your mouth shut, Fu." "You shouldn't fight, Hana." "You shouldn't fight, Hana!" "We're not!" "Do you believe me or Fu?" "Fu." "A place for audition." "...so everything that lives is wounded in some way..." "Sorry to cut you off." "This is a variety show." "I dig where you're coming from in your approach to life... but if that reasoning takes you into a dark place..." "Oh, I'll be very cheerful when I talk about it..." "Tetsuko Arisugawa, from Paper Company." " Nice to meet you." " You too." "Could you tell us what sort of things you've appeared in before?" " Nothing." " I see..." "What's your philosophy at 15?" "Do you have one?" " "Philosophy"?" " A way you like to live." "I don't know..." "But you really would like to do this, would you?" "I'll be firing lines at you... a lot in this." " Can you handle that?" " I don't know..." "You don't know..." "Why do you want this?" "Um..." "You were with the..." "Ground Self-Defense Force?" "Do you have a philosophy that you live by?" ""Don't brood, act."" "I'll never get that role." "Where?" "Where did you come from?" "Kanagawa." "I mean your agent." "Paper Company." "They're not very good." " Scouted?" " Yes." "Paper Company, huh?" "They're lousy." "They are?" "15." "15?" "Very natural." "A cute young girl like you'd see anywhere." "Look at her eat!" "She hates chocolate?" "Scene 82, in the Sodom underground passage." "Masami..." "My name's Tetsuko." "That's your role." "Akiko." "What do I do?" "I know, I'll blow something up." "Kazuo, if you could lay down here... and Yuji... forward." "Akiko... and Masami here." "I'm nervous!" "Ready?" "And go!" "Yuji!" "Where are you?" "!" "Here!" "I can't see!" "Hang on!" "I've got a flash light!" "There's someone here!" "Masami?" "Wake up!" "What do I do?" "What's wrong?" "!" "It's a corpse!" "OK!" "OK!" "OK!" "OK!" "Once more?" "No, I'm OK." "That's fine, then?" "Thank you." "Well done." "No?" "Yes." "Thank you." "I'll keep trying." "A high-school entrance gift." "I don't know what's popular now." "That's what we got when I was in school." "Whether we used them or not." "Stick it in the back of a drawer, take it out sometimes and think..." ""I was given that"... and then put it back." "At least it'll remind you of when you started high school." "Use it that way." "A good-luck charm." "Can I use it?" "All you like." "But soon you'll run out of extra ink cartridges." "It's a nuisance having to buy them." "Then you'll probably stop using it anyway." "So what good is it?" "Well, if you think of it as a gift it'll be harder to throw out." "That's why they last so long." "They're tough, fountain pens." "Tezuka High School?" "Is it co-ed or a girls' school?" "Co-ed." "Sailor uniform?" "Blazer." "I wish you'd worn it." "Letch." "What?" "Letch?" "!" "Please enjoy." " Good, huh?" " Yes." " How's the school?" " Not bad." "Sweet-bean fruit cocktail." "Excuse me... sweet-bean fruit cocktail and seaweed jelly." "They have that?" "I'll have the jelly, too." "Don't you hate that?" "That was years ago." "I've never understood why... you have to take calculus." "And Confucius, too." "It's Chinese." "If you have to study Chinese grammar... they should teach you how to speak it, too!" "I used to do business in Shanghai." "Chinese would be useful to learn." "One?" "OK?" "Stick it back in." "Take it by the corner." "Shazam!" "We played cards at the seaside once." "We did?" "Yes!" "The cards would've blown away." "They did." "They did?" "Hello?" "I'm sorry, no." ""Wong"?" "I'm not Wong." "We just found this cell phone." "No, I'm not a friend." "Uh... not... friend." "Hello?" "I'm afraid not." "The owner of this cellphone must have dropped it." "Hey..." "Can you contact the owner?" "Is the owner Chinese, too?" "Thank you." "He's Chinese." "Was that Chinese?" "Hello?" "Is this your phone?" "In Kamakura." "I'll take it to the police box." "Thanks." "Alright." "We'll turn it in." "We've done a good turn." "Do they still teach Chinese classics in school?" "Yeah." "We just had a test." "The grammar?" "That was on the test." "You know how they say "I love you"?" ""Wo ai ni."" "Wo ai ni." "When will I see you next?" "Hmm..." " I'll phone you." " When?" "I'll call." "I'll e-mail you." "When did you get e-mail?" "Not long ago." "Letch." "Why?" "See you." "Grab that seat." "Umm..." "What was that Chinese?" ""Wo, wo"...?" ""Wo ai ni."" ""Wo ai ni"..." "Bye." "Dad..." "Wo ai ni." ""Zai jian", you should say." ""See you again."" "Think of the saddest thing in your life." "There must be something." "I'm sorry." "OK, try and think of a sneeze." "Doesn't that make your eyes get wet around the edges?" "I'm sorry." "That's fine, then." "Thank you." "Saute, passe, saute, passe... pique, pique, jet, jet, jet, pique, pique, jet, jet, jet, pose." "OK?" "You got it?" "Saute... stop, and arabesque!" "Jump!" "Higher!" "Get ready!" "Saute..." "Stop... arabesque!" "Jump!" "Jump... get ready..." "Leap!" "Higher!" "Higher!" "I hurt my leg." "Let me see." " Here?" " Ow!" "Hana!" "Are you OK?" "Come on... let's do the fouettes." "What's the matter?" "You shouldn't fight!" "I don't have any pain... but a part of my memory hasn't come back." "Doctor?" "Wait!" "Didn't we used to go out?" "What?" "!" "We used to go out, didn't we?" "Yeah, we did." "Hana!" "Your phone." "It's a guy." "Hello?" "Alice?" "How's your leg?" "It's that guy again!" "What guy?" "Your guy!" " No!" "Mr. Miya?" " Yeah!" "What does he want?" "I just wanted to check." "Why is he... asking me if I went out with him?" "He should know!" "What's wrong with him?" "Didn't I tell you?" "He's got amnesia." "He's got what?" ""Amnesia"!" "A M N E S I A." "You're kidding!" "Why didn't you tell me?" "I thought you knew." "I didn't!" "And I never thought he'd be wandering around here." "What do I do now?" "For now just pretend you used to go out with him." "He's lost his memory, so he doesn't remember any of it." "So just make it all up." "I'm sorry." "What you were saying?" "Uh..." "You might find this hard to believe... but I... have amnesia." "What?" "!" "You're kidding!" "I'm hungry." "Remember here?" "We had our first date here." "You don't remember?" "How seriously were we... in love?" "Gee, I don't know..." "But..." "I loved you." "Tell me more." "Different things." "Like what?" "What did I call you?" "Alice." "Alice?" "And you?" "What did you call me?" "What?" "Remember, I was good at reading palms?" "Wow..." "You've got a really wavy life-line." "I still do onomancy, too." "Remember?" "It's been so long!" "Write your name." "Boy, this takes me back!" "I'll tell your fortune." "What were we talking about?" "What you called me." "Mark." ""Mark"?" "Mr. Miyamoto at first." "Then Mr. Masashi." "Then Masashi, Masa... and finally "Mark"." "1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9..." "Mark..." "But I guess I can't call you that any more." "Tell me more." "Lately..." "I think about you all the time." "When I do for some reason... my heart starts pounding." "That's love, I think." "What do you think?" "That's love, isn't it?" "If it really was love... that'd be proof... that we used to go out." "Maybe my memory's starting to come back." "But why did I dump you and start liking Hana?" "That I don't understand." "You'll remember." "I just... don't understand it physically." "To tell you the truth about Hana, I don't really..." "You don't like her?" "It's not that..." "It's like... she's not the type of girl I would approach." "But you did." "And then you came to hate me." "I wonder if that was really me..." "It's like there's..." "another me somewhere." "This tree!" "Remember this?" "It's where we first kissed." "It's raining." "It's like we've gone back to that day." "I don't remember at all." "That's great." "I wish I could forget." "Mark..." "Hey, you!" "Hey!" "You OK?" "Hey!" "You all right?" "You OK?" "Excuse me!" " Mr. Miya!" " Your friend?" "Are you OK?" "!" "Hey!" "Mr. Miya!" "Come in." "I'll bring a towel." "Can I go buy you something?" "I'll be fine if I just lay down a bit." "Sure, lay down." "As long as you like." "Have you got a fever?" "You're hot." "You might be getting a cold." "If my memory comes back... but only half of it... then what?" "Half?" "The first half." "If I only remember the part when I was going out... with Alice... then what?" "What'll you do then?" "I don't know." "Maybe you should sleep for a little while." "I'll go to the drug store." "Who's that?" "I'm back." "Hana, are you here?" "Look at you!" "Hana!" "Oh, shit!" "No!" "No!" "Alice?" "!" "What the hell are you doing?" " De-stressing." " You scared me!" " How's Mark?" " "Mark"?" "Your boyfriend." "Don't call him that!" "Mark and I date sometimes." "Stop calling him that!" "What?" ""Date"?" "What are you talking about?" "What do you mean?" "You didn't know?" "He comes to ask me about the old days." "He didn't tell you?" "I'm playing at being his old girlfriend." "He hasn't told you?" "How are you two... getting along, anyway?" "Oh yeah, some of his memory's come back." "That's what he said." "You didn't know?" "Oh, didn't I tell you?" "His memory won't come back." "Never." " Is that right?" " That's right." "Didn't I tell you?" "It's not amnesia he's got." "Then what's he got?" "Nothing." "Then what?" "He's normal." "He is not normal at all!" "It's like a fixation." "You know, like a hysterical pregnancy." "I don't understand." "He was told he had amnesia, and he believed it." " Can that happen?" " Sure." "You have a boyfriend." "Me?" "No." " Sure you do." " I don't." " You do!" " I don't!" "You've got amnesia too!" "No, I don't!" "Do I?" "Hana's... gone out shopping." "Oh?" "Want some coffee?" "Make yourself at home." "So he doesn't..." " have amnesia." " No." "Then why not tell him the truth?" "No way!" "I can't do that now!" " Why not?" " It'd be a disaster!" "First, he'd find out you're not his old flame." " He's gonna find out." " Will that be OK?" " No." " I'm going to be in trouble." "And he finds out I'm not his girlfriend!" "Aren't you?" "No." "What are you?" "I'm his girlfriend while he has amnesia." "And you're not if he doesn't?" "No, I'm not!" "Do you understand now?" "You lied to him?" "!" "He believed me." "What else could I do?" "I never dreamed he'd really fall for it, though." "You're amazing!" "What'll you think of next?" "Well, that's how it is." "I'm counting on you." "But he says his memory's starting to come back." "He hasn't lost his memory, so there's nothing to come back." " So what's he remembering?" " Nothing." "But he says when he's with me that his heart pounds." "That he's in love." "I see..." "Is he after me now?" "He's after me!" "Get wet." "You're in trouble!" "Perfect timing!" "We were just talking about your problem." "She knows things about you that I don't." "Something to help you remember." "And I hear you two have been seeing each other." "Why were you keeping that... a secret from me?" "I wasn't..." "It's awful that you're hiding things." "But I've been talking to her about how to cure you, too." "That's a fact, so let's let bygones be bygones." "I'm happy to say she's agreed to help." "Right?" " Haven't you?" " Yes." "You say thank you, too." "Mr. Miya!" "Whoa whoa whoa!" " It feels great!" " I guess so..." "Stop it!" "Take this." "Turn it." "Do you remember this?" "We jumped rope like this." "Ow!" "Does it hurt that much?" "The rope's wet." "I'll turn and you skip." "But... who was skipping then?" "You need three people." "The kids!" "We were playing with some kids that were here." "We couldn't do that with just the two of us!" " Right." " No!" "Come on, Mr. Miya." "I'm starving!" "I can't go any further." "I'm sure it was around here." "We had lunch together, remember?" "Where is the cafe?" "Here." "It's gone." "So where are we going to get lunch?" "I was afraid this would happen." "So I brought something." "Alice's special rice-ball sandwiches!" "You used to love these, Mark." "What is this?" "What is this?" "Do you remember now?" "I don't know whether I want milk or miso soup." "Mark, are you happy?" "You are, aren't you?" "You've got a nice girlfriend like Hana." "Who cares if you don't remember... as long as you are happy now." "I have to say this?" "Mark, are you happy?" "You are, aren't you?" "You've got a nice girlfriend like Hana." "Who cares if you don't remember... as long as you're happy now." "Mr. Miya, I'm really, really happy right now." "Hey, you remember this?" "Take a card." "Remember it." "Put it back." "Is it... this one?" "No." "That's weird..." " It was the 5 of Spades." " Yep." "Yep." "And next..." "Hey!" "It's just like before." "The wind blew the cards away that time, too." "We played that game... where you have to find the Ace of Hearts first." "What did we bet?" "That was a great game." "Let's play it!" "So whoever finds the Ace of Hearts wins." "OK." "Yay!" "I win!" "So... what'll I order you to do." "OK... as of today, Mark's mine." "Break up with him." "No way!" "I didn't mean it." "Just kidding!" "What was that for?" "!" "Why did you do that?" "!" "Cut it out." "A bit more." "Coming in." "Up a bit?" "Move a bit left..." "Right." " This way..." " The butterfly!" "Sorry..." "A bit to the right..." " How's that?" " The butterfly's moving..." "Sorry..." "That's good." "Ms. Kano, stand by please." "OK." "Down you get." " Don't touch anything." " Sorry." "Watch your step." "Ms. Kano?" "Ms. Kano's on the set!" "Nice to meet you all." "Could you..." "Sit here." "Thank you." "Watch your step." "It may look like a toy." "There's just a few now but we'll CG a ton of them in later." "You'll be amazed." "This is a test!" "What's wrong?" "You're crying." "Did you get dumped?" "I wonder why I broke up with you." "Do you know the reason?" "I won't say." "I don't want to lose you again." "One of these days... you'll start to like Hana again... and you'll throw me away." "Then I'll be alone again." "End of story." "I lost my hat here." "It's probably still at the bottom of this pond." "I've haven't been on one of these for years!" "Do you mind?" "Are you serious?" "You put a coin in?" "It's busted." "Guess so." "Hello?" "Hello?" "No one." "I'm hungry." "There you go." "We'd always end up eating seaweed jelly." "I didn't used to like it much... but now I do." "It reminds me of us." "What's wrong?" "Don't you want it?" "Not really..." "You used to like it." "Don't you remember?" "I can't eat seaweed jelly." "I'm allergic to it." "If I eat it I get real sick." "I always have." "Which means... either you remember wrong or you're lying." "Do I really have amnesia?" "Sorry." "It's all lies?" "I'm sorry." "So..." "I was never anything special to you." "Was this Hana's idea?" "I'm not telling." "But what about that game... with the Ace of Hearts?" "You told Hana to break up with me." "You didn't mean that?" "That was... just a joke." "You didn't find the ace, did you?" "You cheated." "Why?" "I found the ace." "No, you didn't." "I did." "Here it is." "This is a different deck." "Did you really find this there?" "Yeah." "You're kidding!" "It's true." "Give me a minute." "Hey..." "Have this." "Put it... way in the back of a drawer." "Keep it there." "Someday... you see it there... and think of me." "I'll do that every day." "That won't work!" "It didn't last long... but it's like we were really going out." ""Wo ai ni."" "What's that?" "Not telling." ""Zai jian."" "What?" "Not telling." "You turn into a miser who can't count to six." "You count five closing your fingers... and you hate to open them again." "Some people are just greedy." "Sankichi!" "There's a nail sticking out." "Go next door and borrow a hammer." "Be right back." "Excuse me, could I borrow your hammer?" "To hammer what?" "A nail, of course." "Don't worry, I won't hammer your head." "Then I can't lend it." "You'll wear it out if you use it on a nail." "I see." "Boss, I couldn't borrow one." "Hammer your head..." "Don't worry, I won't hammer your head." "Then I can't lend it." "You'll wear it out if you use it on a nail." " When's the festival?" " Next week?" "It's so close." "A nail, of course." "Don't worry, I won't hammer your head." "Then I can't lend it." "You'll wear it out if you use it on a nail." "Boss, I couldn't borrow one." "Why not?" "He says I'll wear it out if I use it on a nail." "Tezuka High School Culture Festival" "Come on in!" " The Festival is under way!" " That it is!" "Can you keep that energy right to the end?" "I can't hear you!" "Say, yeah!" "The Drama Club's doing "Jungle Emperor", eh?" "That's going to cut into our time!" "It only leaves us five minutes!" "So the Committee says." "Now what, eh?" "That's only time for one." "Who's it going to be?" "That's the problem, eh?" "My old Granny can't walk any more." "She should stay home... but she wants to see her grandson perform, eh?" "She's been excited all day." "I saw her in her wheelchair... coming out of the washroom... and our eyes met, eh?" "And she said," ""Go get'em, boy!"" "It is not relevant." "But that's not important, eh?" "So which one of us is it going to be?" "But the Phys-Ed teacher scares me, eh?" "I only did three, and now he calls me "Old Three Push-ups"." "He's right into it." "You never know what'll scare someone, eh?" "With some people it's bean-paste buns, eh?" "And there's a story about them, eh?" "Man, was I nervous, eh?" "I didn't see anyone in a wheelchair." "You didn't?" "I was so nervous." "I didn't even see the audience, eh?" "Like a drink?" " I'll go buy something." " No, no, no!" "I'm buying, eh?" "Why have you got this?" "Can I tear it up?" "It's no big deal." "Tear it up." "Why should I?" "Should we break up?" "Why?" " Fu!" " Oh, hi!" " Congratulations." " Thank you for coming." "Go on in." "Hana!" "Come and see my pictures." "Over here." "Go in!" "Dance of the Wind" "Thank you for coming." " They're very good." " Thank you." "They move." " There's atmosphere." " Thank you."

"Are you still fighting with Alice?" "It's not a "fight"..." "You shouldn't fight." "You know "the flower house"?" "The what?" "There was a house everyone called "the flower house"." "If you passed that house on the way home... you'd see a girl peeking out the window." "Everyone thought the flower house was kind of creepy." "My mother said that one day the girl in that house... started hating school, and would never go outside." "But one day that girl came... to study ballet." "When we met the girl from the flower house... she was really nice." "It was Alice who brought you to ballet, wasn't it." "You shouldn't fight." "Oh, thank you!" "It's not a fight." "The King of the jungle" "Funky!" "Hana The Funky!" "Funky!" "Funky!" "Oh, no!" "Oh my oh my!" "You changed?" "You've got to go on right now, eh?" "One of the giraffes fell over!" "They had to stop!" "We have to fill in, eh?" "What about Mr. Miya's "Live-Forever"?" "He's on now." "He's almost done." "Hana The Funky... you're the closing act!" "Hurry and get changed, eh?"

"I'll have to fill in with "Careless Messenger", eh?" "A great lord once had a retainer named Jibuemon." "A man who forgot things an awful lot, eh?" "Can you tie my sash?" "One day his lord gave him an important message to deliver." "I am Sandayu Tanaka, retainer of this household." "I am Jibuemon Jibuta." "I serve Lord Sugidaira." "I can't remember what I had to do..." "Mr. Miya... are you in love... with Alice?" "If you are... in love... with Alice... that means... you're really... in love." "Alice is... really nice, so... be happy with her." "I've always been the kind of man who forgets things." "But if you pinch my ass real hard... it's amazing what I remember." "Are you still mad about the card?" "No." "That's not it." "Don't be shy!" "Go on!" "Pinch my ass with those big pliers, eh?" "Pinch that cheek as hard as you can!" "I'm sorry I lied." "Mr. Miya... you don't have amnesia." "The fact is... that you... and I... haven't fallen... in love." "You're wrong." "Don't jump to conclusions." "Pervert!" "Get off the stage!" "I already know everything." "About how my amnesia was a lie... and all the bad things you did." "Make that up to me." " Let's go." " This is embarrassing." "Not yet!" "Keep going!" "Now I remember!" "First, knock'em dead." "What is your lord's message?" "I forgot to ask when I left the castle!" "It's good to be thrifty... but when it goes too far... it's a problem for everyone." "You turn into a miser... who can't count to six." "It's like... you count five closing your fingers... and you hate to open them again." "Some people are just greedy." "But... it looks like the last performer was so bad... that everyone left." "I'm here." "You want me to go on?" "Once again." "Take it up a stop." "Ready?" "OK." "Change it a little." "Good."
