"You were always a smartass." "That's you." "Anyway, he's drawing." "You know Pero, this anime director?" "And his translator, the big faced guy." "Mr. Hadano." "Sometimes," "I think he's the true director." "Nah, he just transcribes the director's ideas." "He does?" "What?" " That's so fishy." " Not at all." "Why?" "It's so fishy." "It's not fishy." "Fishy." "What's Pero's nationality?" "He's not a person." "A dog." "A dog?" "Can a dog direct animation?" "Yeah." "Seriously?" "So fishy." "Not at all." "Fishy." "Then why do you help him?" "Why do I have to do all this?" "I draw all these originals alone, when 20 cuts per person's the norm." "20 years ago, sure... but not now." "A division of labor is important." "Gather the talent and follow the schedule." "That's the way of today." "In spite of it, I'm struggling with tons of lines by myself." "Tons of shots..." "Can I delete some?" "If you wanna follow the schedule..." "That hurts!" "Shut up!" "You shut up." "I can't follow this schedule... all alone." "Why do I have to do it all by myself?" "But you're doing it together." "I have to pay him!" "So this 'Pero' person..." "Not person, a dog." "A dog." "Um, he's a pretty black dog." "His translator... reads his mind when... something dawns on him." "He writes the ideas down." "Sometimes he just guesses... what the dog is thinking." "A shot of a school." "Got that." "Who is this?" "Then a strange figure... rings the school bell." "What's next?" "Okay, I see." "A tracking shot." "Then we make storyboards." "And order the animation." "I see." "That's the process." "Fishy." "Not at all." "So fishy." "Not fishy." "It's a fantasy." "Keep working." "Okay." "By the way." "What?" "My bro's having a singles picnic." "Wanna come?" "Sure!" "A singles picnic." "And you?" "Me?" "No." "Come on!" "Even animators need to meet girls." "Always." "I won't go." "Yes we'll go." "Right?" "Huh?" "Keep working." "I'm done with this cut." "See you at the picnic." "ANIME BROTHERS, WHO'S THE DIRECTOR?"
