Popotan!

Amazing!

Amazing! Amazing!

What an amazing toy store!

You're wrong.

This is a Christmas shop.

You have the same ribbon as me!

They sell these everywhere.

Oh, come on. You're a toy store.

What's with this kid?

This doll.

Can you fix it?

I don't do that sort of thing.

What?!

This is not a toy store and

we don't do toy repairs.

Please! Toy store lady!

Please leave.

Come on!

Instead of wasting your time here...

...why don't you go and

play with your friends?

What's the matter?

It's nothing.

Where do you live?

A village.

That way.

Don't you have friends there?

Are you all alone, too?

Why do you say that?

I mean, you're minding

the store all by yourself.

Yes. I suppose.

I'm home!

All that work for nothing.

Tomorrow we'll go to another place

and ask the popotan.

Mea.

How's supper?

Coming up.

She forgot this.

What's with that kid, anyway?

Alone

Mii's Place

Merry Popotan

Puffy, puffy! Not!

Get away from me!

But this one's puffier!

Now, now, Mii.

Why do we all have to bathe

at the same time?

I think it can be fun occasionally.

There's no harm.

I'll leave a change of clothes right here.

Thank you!

Anything else?

No. Nothing.

Well, I think I'll retire to my room.

You're going to bed already?

How early.

All right. Thanks for all the work.

Excuse me.

Tomorrow's going to be exhausting, too.

If only we could ask the locals where

the popotan are, it would be easy.

We have no choice.

We can't do that here.

Wake up, Mii!

It's time to go! Mii!

Another half hour.

No good.

She won't get up.

What'll we do with her?

It's already time.

I know!

Unagi, go and wake up Mii.

You're the only one who can do it.

We're counting on you.

Tell her when she wakes up...

...that we've headed east.

Sure.

Where did you go yesterday?

To the west.

Did you come across a village?

Yes, we did.

About an hour's walking distance.

Unagi, you can do it!

We're counting on you!

But...

Yes?

Why do you ask?

There's really nothing there.

What do you mean?

There is a village there...

...but there's no one living in it.

It was abandoned,

and no one lives there.

There are many villages like that.

The young people were not

interested in the rural life...

...and moved to the cities in droves.

The ones left were the old folks.

They got older and older...

...and many went to their

children's places in the cities.

And some simply lived out their lives there.

So, eventually...

...no one was left in the villages.

No one's there.

Yes.

It's sad.

I prefer a place like this

much more than the city.

The air is fresh and the scenery is beautiful.

I think so, too.

Right? See? I'm not the only one!

Puffy, puffy.

No! No, you mustn't go there!

Come on! That's ticklish!

Unagi! Let me sleep a little bit longer!

Thank you.

Shall we go home now?

What's the matter?

Mii played hooky all day!

Mii! What time do you think it is?!

What'll we do with her?

Mii!

Mai?

She's probably out playing!

I'll find her and give her a cobra twist!

Mii!

Mii! Where are you?! Mii!

I'm here.

Mii?

Wh-what is it?

Popotan.

Popotan.

Lady!

Did you fix my doll?

Where did you come from?

The village that way.

No one lives in that village.

I don't like lies.

Where did you really come from?

I was abandoned. Just me.

What do you mean?

But I'm okay now.

I'm not alone anymore!

I don't understand.

What do you mean?

You did a nice job fixing her.

Thank you.

Are you...?

Mea!

Are you...?

Mea!

Lady, you're so kind.

Mea!

It's Mai's.

That's all that's here.

Where's Mai?

I don't know.

And Mii's not around, either.

They're not in the house?

No.

I don't have a good feeling about this.

If they're not around...

You find them?

No.

Let's go look over there.

Miss Ai?

Miss Ai?

Miss Ai's gone, too?

Y-You're...

Come with me, lady.

You're looking for those three girls, right?

Where are we going?

This way.

We'd have a spring festival

every year around this time.

This was a wonderful village, long ago.

It was cheerful and lively.

It was so much fun.

But...

Community Hall

...everyone went away.

Nobody cares.

Such a fun village.

But they just abandoned it.

Who on earth are you?

Here we are!

This is the place.

Miss Ai? Miss Mai? Miss Mii?

What have you done?

What is this?

They're just having dreams.

Dreams that they want to have.

They're all feeling so good right now...

...they won't feel like going.

They'll never want to leave.

The people who abandoned

this village were selfish.

But that goes for you, too.

You've kidnapped us and you're

selfishly toying with us.

I don't approve of such a thing.

You're not going to join us?

I cannot oblige you.

I thought that you'd join us.

Just like the people of the village.

You just don't care...

...about me!

I'm going to make you have a dream, too.

Then you'll want to stay.

How?

How?

How are you able to...?!

No!

N-No.

No!

I just wanted...

...I just wanted us to be together.

I'm all alone again.

We are the same as you.

Humans are so selfish.

I feel so tired.

Maybe it was the weird dream I had.

Dream?

I wasn't sure if I was scared

or if I was having fun.

What? I had a dream like that, too.

I had a dream where both of you were gone.

I never want to separate from you, Ai!

It was just a dream. Just a dream.

So?

Was that dream also

kind of scary and kind of fun?

No. There was more to it than that.

But I don't remember it very well.

Like something really sad happened.

That's what it felt like.

Well, was I cute in that episode?

Hot Springs

Okay, the next episode of

Popotan is "Hot Springs".

So we finally made it

to the hot springs!

And I don't want to hear anything

about us always being in the bath.

And it isn't only about hot springs.

We're in bathing suits

and all these misunderstandings.

What?! There's that, too?!

Good night, everyone!
