Hey, that's my recorder!

Probably.

Do that with your own!

It's gonna break! Give it back to me!

Math Quiz

At night, along the Tenryu River, there will be a fireworks display.

There will be food stands with yakisoba.

Takoyaki and cotton candy.

Apple candy. Apricot candy. Thump. Thump.

Throat candy.

They don't have those.

Oh no!

I might not have enough money for the festival... Actually, I don't have any.

Didn't you say you got 1500 yen just for the festival?

I might have spent it all!

I bought comic books and more comic books.

Nobue-oneechan said she'll help us put on our yukatas properly.

Nobue-oneesama? Wow...

What's wrong?

I might not have a yukata!

Ana-chan, you don't have a yukata?

I've never worn one before...

...and I've never seen one at my house.

Ana-chan, you're like a foreigner.

Matsuri-chan, did you say that on purpose?

Huh?

Be quiet!!

Alright!

Micchan, the test is over in one minute. Are you going to be okay?

What, what, what, what...

What is a test?

I said, stop using my recorder without asking me!

For goodness sake, when did you take it?

Then show me your test!

No!

Sensei! Chi-chan won't let me look at her answers!

Why?

Festival

Here comes!

Your kimono is folded over the wrong way.

Huh?

Chief once said it's bad luck to have the left side on top.

Chee... secake?

Chief. I said, Chief.

The chief chef of the Japanese restaurant I used to work a part-time job at.

Part-time job?

Breathe in, Chi.

That's too tight, Onee-chan.

I have to make it this tight, or it'll come loose too quickly.

The uniform at my old job was a kimono, and the chief...

Just tell me what flavor the cheesecake was at your part-time job!

That's about right.

Yes, hello.

Oh. What's wrong, Ana-chan?

Huh? You don't have a yukata?

I see.

No, that's okay, you can just come as you are.

I just don't feel right in it.

Oh, but it suits you very well! So very well.

Don't you think?

Yes! Ana-chan, you look cute!

But... I feel kinda bad.

This is too cruel!

How can you do this to an unwed girl?

Today is festival day and it only comes once a year!

Hello.

O-Matsuri!

Miu-chan, why are you dressed like that?

Remember this!

Hiya!

I can't believe she left dressed like that.

Let's see...

Is it too tight, Matsuri-chan?

No, it's okay.

Maaaa...

Nin. Nin.

Your costume is all wrong.

Miu-chan?

No! I'm a ninja!

Namuuu!

Absolutely everything about this is wrong.

Anyway, where did you get this stuff?

Bring it on!

It sure is hard to walk in a kimono.

It really suits you, Ana-chan.

Oh, can you get the door?

Yes.

Sorry for the wait!

Nobue-oneechan, prepare yourself!

Your CD throwing-star attack has failed!

What do you think you're doing?

Next time, watch your back!

D-Defeated.

Chi's really good at baking, isn't she!

Yes, these are delicious!

Yeah!

You shouldn't play along with her!

I gotcha!

What's up with that face?!

Are you a panda, a thief or a ninja?

And what if I am all three?

What?

I gotcha!

What?

That's no good, Matsuri-chan.

If we were in the feudal era, you'd be dead.

Really, you can't let your guard down around this "panda thief."

Don't call me that!

I gotcha!

Wait!

I don't wanna~

They're both such kids!

Hiya!

Matsuri-chan, did you get any spending money?

Um...

Oh! A flying saucer!

Oh, you're right.

Huh?

Damn it.

How can I make her let down her guard?

Oh yes! The seduction trick.

I know your weakness.

Huh?

Oh! I dropped my sword!

Oh! I can't get it! I can't get it!

You're completely open to attack now.

What is the seduction trick anyway?

I don't know...

But I think what you just did is not it.

Ana-chan, do you have spending money?

I have about 2000 yen.

I know... Ana-chan?

Help me out.

O-Okay.

Just sit here. And act sensual.

Sensual?

Yes. Like this.

Like this?

We're not quite there yet...

Put your thumb like that. Yes. Yes.

Now look up through your lashes.

What is this for?

I think that's about right.

U-Um...?

I gotcha!

Pose your legs a little more like this.

You're tough!

Aren't we gonna go to the festival?

Oh yeah, Chika, did you find it?

Right there.

Miu, take off your clothes.

Oh, Lord Magistrate!

Idiot.

That was Onee-chan's yukata when she was little.

It was in storage, but we got Mom to take it out.

It's so cute!

It's a little babyish.

But I think it will suit Miu.

What's that supposed to mean?!

Just get ready to put it on!

It looks like it's going on!

There's going to be a fireworks show on the Tenryu river later, too.

Can we watch the fireworks from close up?

Yes! They're amazing!

It's breathtaking!

Oh! I'm so excited!

It'll take a while to get there from here...

...so we should leave 30 minutes early.

I'm scared of big fireworks.

You're so timid, Matsuri-chan!

But fireworks are so loud!

They go boom!

Are they really that loud?

Yes, they're louder than the starting pistol at sporting events.

What's in that big bag?

Oh, this bag? Really valuable things.

I don't understand what she's thinking and I really don't want to.

Welcome!

Wow, there are so many people and so many stalls!

Come on! We're going, Miu.

Who would buy this kind of mask?

Oh, goldfish scooping!

Hey, do you know what goldfish scooping is?

Huh?

Well, you watch them very closely from above...

...then say, "They sure are red!"

And so it's just to have a good laugh!

Stop making up crazy stories!

C'mon, let's get started already!

Okay, let's do it.

Let me see.

game

yen

Thank you!

One game is 300 yen.

Here you go!

Here.

Huh?

Huh? Haven't you ever seen a sock before?

Well... A sock?

My father's socks cost 500 yen.

One of them is 250 yen.

Mini-soap is 50 yen.

Huh?

Fine, then...

How about this?

This is a platinum quality...

...environmentally ecologically-friendly item!

All you have to do is take it to the supermarket recycling box.

So?

Then what am I supposed to do?

What are you supposed...? Hey, kid!

I think that's about the limit.

I'm sorry about that.

You better pay me back with interest.

Um... Oops! Darn...

Oh no! It tore!

Mine too.

Wow, Chika-chan, you caught two!

Oh!

Huh?!

Hang on, goldfish!

I'll save you!

Don't you die on me, goldfish!

Gotcha!

Oh, Miu-san's not scooping the fish, she's saving the fish.

Huh?

Note: Scooping/Saving

Not this character, but this one.

Oh! Not "catch," but "help"!

You sure know some difficult kanji.

You're good at this, Miu.

Aren't I amazing?

Catch and release.

Hey!

They're so cute!

You better take care of them yourself.

But since they're festival fish, they probably won't last long anyway.

That's not true.

On TV they said if you take care of them they can live as long as 10 years.

Oh yeah! I should give them names!

Let's name them Richard and James.

What kind of names are those?

So it's decided then.

Target Practice

It's a target practice game!

Yes! Target practice is a game where...

You see all those prizes lined up on the shelf over there?

You shoot them with this and if you knock them off the shelf...

That lady will shoot back at you. Scary, huh?

Come on now, it's no good if you make up stories!

Let me explain things properly.

If you hit those things lined up there...

...the bus gas will blow up!

No, that's not right.

Actually, that doesn't make sense at all.

Huh?

Oh yeah... Matsuri-chan!

Um?

I already knew what target practice was...

Matsuri-chan, can you say any tongue twisters?

You don't look like you'd be able to.

Huh? I don't know.

Okay! Fruit juice chushutsuchu.

Note: Translation: Extracting Fruit Juice

Try it!

F-Fruit juchuchuchuju.

Ha! I got something cool!

Fruit juchichuchu...

Matsuri-chan, there's an easier one.

Huh?

Note: Translation: Operation in Progress.

Shujutsuchu. Try saying it.

Shujjjuu...

Uh... Um...

Can you say it, Chika? Shujutsuchu.

Shujutsuchu.

Hey, you can say it well.

What about you, Ana-chan?

Shutsutsuchu?

That was kinda cute.

What about you, Miu? Shujutsu...

Doctor, thank you for taking care of my boy.

It isn't much, but...

That comes after the operation, doesn't it?

Note: Ring toss 100 yen per round

It's the ring tossing game! Let's do it!

Here you go. One game is 100 yen.

Jujuju... tsu. Chu... suzutsutsu...

I'm sorry. She's a little... you know...

...suzutsutsu...

I did it!

Chika-san, you're good!

Ana-chan, you can throw my rings too.

Um... Try saying it with an emphasis on the "tsu" in "shujutsu."

Tsu?

Yes.

Shujutsuchu.

Shujuch...

Don't worry about it so much.

Do you wanna eat something? I'm hungry.

I agree!

Note: Takoyaki

How many do we need?

Two should be enough, don't you think?

Hey, Ana-chan, why don't you try a candied apple? It's good.

They're beautiful!

Hey, mister. One candied apple, please!

Here you go. It's tasty!

Thank you!

Oh no. Someone lend me some bus change.

You didn't have to spend so much.

Well, it just happened.

Ana-chan, how's your candied apple?

It's so good.

Show me your tongue.

Oh! It's red!

What's up?

Miu-san!

Note: Quick Draw

Welcome! Welcome!

One try only 1000 yen. It's cheap. So cheap.

Take anything you want!

If a simple apology would suffice, then you should call 110 for the cops!

What's wrong with you guys? Cheer up!

Okay fine. Only 50 yen, then!

Fine! 30 yen!

What kind of sale is that?

And this isn't even a draw.

This is an empty shampoo bottle.

And this is an empty water bottle.

And this glove looks really worn.

You probably found this glove on the ground somewhere, didn't you?

There isn't one thing here I would buy.

Hey, little girl...

If you're gonna do business here, you need a license.

I'm not doing business.

I haven't sold one thing.

If you'd like to buy something, that would be great.

This is a walkway, so for safety reasons, you have to move.

Please, quickly...

Seriously?

Customers, I'm so sorry.

I have to close early. Please come again tomorrow.

Oh my, I wonder what that food stand is selling?

Now, where did Miu go?

Maybe she's hiding, 'cause she thinks she's gonna get scolded.

I don't think she's the type...

Festival dance tunes sure are catchy these days.

Micchan!

What's wrong, Chi?

Look, Onee-chan! It's Micchan!

Little girl, where did you come from?

Miu-chan?

You're in the way, mister!

I don't know her. I don't know her.

Give me back those drum sticks.

I don't wanna hear this.

Hey, stop it!

Oh! Ouch!

Miu-chan is in the zone! Don't be surprised if you get too close and get burned!

Hey, just let go of that drum stick!

Onee-chan, I think this is getting out of hand.

No!

Enough is enough!

Let go! Help me!

Miu-san!

Nobue-oneechan!

Itou Nobue-oneechan!

Your cute little sister...

For goodness sake! Chi...

...is in front of the drums calling for help.

Hold this for me, and don't move an inch.

I'm so sorry.

I'll give her a good talking to later on.

Please forgive her.

C'mon, say you're sorry.

Well, it is festival time after all.

We don't want to be too hard on her.

See, Nobue-oneechan.

I'm sorry that she's such a spoilsport.

I'll be sure to give her a good talking to.

You...

Fireworks.

The fireworks have begun.

We can't see them.

I really wanted to see the fireworks.

Don't you dare say that, Miu.

School Zone

We weren't able to see the fireworks show, but the festival was fun.

Yes. The booths were all very interesting.

And we got to wear yukatas.

It was a lot of fun.

I have marks on my feet from my sandal straps.

Me too!

Me too.

Look, look!

The bottom of your foot is black.

Isn't it amazing?

It's nothing to brag about.

Hey, you guys.

Look what I found in storage.

Wanna try them?

Note: Fancy Set

Yes!

There's something nice about this too.

I prefer these kinds of fireworks.

Summer is already over, isn't it?

It was fun.

But I'm a little sad that it's over already.

Why you...!

I'm going to take you back to the festival and sell you!

Help me! Richard! James!

Where are you right now?

Note: Fat

I'm done with dinner.

Huh? What's wrong, Chi?

Why'd you leave so much food?

I'm not very hungry right now.

Really? You did the same thing yesterday.

Well, since Chi-chan is dieting, I'll eat it for her!

Cut it out, Micchan! I'm not dieting!

Chi's acting strange...

I'm so worried, I can't eat.

Oh! Can I have seconds, please?

There's none for you.
