Hai!

I sensed you on a secret frequency

and was captivated by your radiance

And seeing you with my million-bit vision

The circuits of my heart

Ah, they're going wild!

The forces of love move me as they will

So I've embraced the mystery

If it's for the sake of the one you love

Why, there's nothing you couldn't do!

Oh, the heartful, heartful mechanic

the slightest movements of a pure heart

The heartful, heartful mechanic

makes true your dream-colored heartbeats

Step Jun, Step Jun, Step Jun!

Your hot desire! Come on, come on, input!

The Kichinosuke Who Leapt Through Time

Here it comes!

Thank you so much for waiting.

This robot's a million times better than Kichinosuke.

Got something you wanna say to my face, Dork Trio?

Well, look who's here.

Who you callin' a Dork Trio, huh?

Our names are Utarou, Satarou and Chutarou!

Big deal! Put all three of you together and you get the Dork Trio!

Just shut up! Big talk for some moron who can't read kanji.

Can't read 'em, but I can talk juuuust fine.

You know how to tell time, then?

Geh!

T-Tell time...?

Ah! This blockhead can't tell time!

Haha, what a giant joke.

So? How 'bout you give us the time?

C'mon!

C'mon!!

C'mon!!!

Th -- Th -- This sucks!!!

Ah, that's right...

I never added a program to let you do that, huh.

Mean! So mean! That's mean, y'know?

Way too mean...

Well, I know what I'm up to tonight!

Okay! All finished.

Now you'll be able to tell the time right down to the minute.

I'll just need to slot this into your memory banks.

Now pop open up those guts!

Aw gee, do I have to...?

Big brother, are you embarrassed? Pico!

Much more shame in not being able to tell time, I'd have to say.

...It's still embarrassing.

There! Everything should be good to go.

Heck yeah, heck yeah!

So, what time is it now?

Huh, let's see...

It's 1:15!

Huh...?

Okay, calm down and try again!

So, uh...

Yep, it's 1:15!

Well, that's odd...

If it was actually 1:15...

It would look like this!

Well, uh...

But that's 3:15!

Oh, I know what's going on!

You're reading it two hours ahead!

Cruel! And way too cruel at that!

There must be some bug in the program somewhere...

Sure, slack off when it's someone else's problem.

I'm tired, so let's pick this back up tomorrow.

What?! You can't put this off!

Oh whatever, it might just sort itself out overnight.

Night!

How do you like them apples?

You can say that again!

- Heh, what the heck... - Oh, that Kichinosuke.

Eh, who cares about two measly hours?

Bein' able to read a clock is still a heck of a thing!

He's doing better than our cat Pochi, at least!

- Oh, hello! - Hello!

Morning!

So, Kichinosuke? What time is it now?

Hmm, let's see...

It's 9:25!

Ah, of course you'd still be busted...

There's going to be a math test!

Wait, what was that you just said, Kichinosuke?

There's going to be a math test!

A math test?!

What is he talking about?

I mean...

I do have math class at 9:25 this morning...

But a test...?

Good morning!

Got a great math class for you today!

You'll be taking a surprise test!

It's just as Kichinosuke said...

It can't be... he must be able to see what will happen two hours from now.

Nonomiya! Your thoughts appear to be racing.

Is this surprise test really putting you through the wringer?

Heh, now then -- huh?

Spit it out!!!

Who defiled their exam sheet like this?

Ah yes, it was me!

Wrote down my name and filled in the proper score.

Nighty night.

Knock it off with this impudence!!!

Sensei! We're running out of time to do the test!

Begin the darn test, already!

That Kichinosuke is something else!

Still, only two hours notice is way too late for a surprise test.

You're right, it would've been much better to find out yesterday.

Can you adjust him so he can predict things earlier?

Oh no, it's impossible! This all happened by pure luck.

AWFUL!!!

It's Kichinosuke!!!

IT'S SO AWFUL!!!

Kichinosuke!

Huh?

Didn't I tell you you're not allowed at school?

It's horrible! At 3:22, Zero's going to get in an accident!

WHAAAAT?!

In less than two hours...

Zero shall meet his end.

ZERO!!!

Zero! Where's Zero?

- Was sleepin' here a bit ago. - Maybe he's in the can?

Hey, you smoking scofflaw! It's me, Ohata Sensei!

Didn't fall for it, huh.

Zero!!!

If you're in there, let me know, Zero!

Too bad, you just missed him.

Zero!

- Wait, Zero! - What's up, Jun?

Please, I'm begging you! Don't ride your bike!

Th-The hell? What's the big problem?

Zero! There'll be an accident!

It's true, Zero!

Kichinosuke's predictions are the real thing!

Heh, guess you added some new goofy-ass function to your goofy-ass robot.

How thick can you get?!

Awright, outta the way, Jun!

Huh? H-Hey!

Whattya doin'? Gimme back my keys!

Gimme those keys!

I can't!!!

Outta my way!

Hey, c'mon! Jun, wait!

This is all for the sake of love...

Jun, what the hell!

Runnin' off in there ain't playin' fair!

Ah, such a relief...

R-Relief? Then what about my keys...?

Down the toilet drain they went!

Peace! Peace! Peeeeace!

Think things are gonna end well for ya if ya pull stunts like that?

Much better than if you died on me!

I ain't bitin' the dust that easy!

Look!

There really was an accident!

A truck driver fell asleep and plowed right into a motorbike!

So Kichinosuke's prediction...

If Zero ended up getting on his bike...

He would have been riding through this area at that time.

Oh, thank goodness...

Thank you so, so much, Kichinosuke...

Thanks to you, Zero's life was saved!

Aw shucks, was it a big deal?

If anything else is going to happen, let me know!

You just leave it all to me.

Big brother, you're so cool!

Aw jeepers...

Hey Mom, I'll handle things from here, so you can go to the restaurant!

My, you're certainly in a good mood today.

I'll leave you to it!

Danger! Danger! Danger!!!

Ah, Kichinosuke! Is something up?

At 9:31 PM...

Something horrible is going to happen!

Zero's in another accident?

No, you're the one in danger!

Wait, me?

Some freaky pervert is going to kiss you!

WHAAAAT?!

P-Pervert? But who?

S-So, the thing about that is...

Just spit it out already!

Well... it's gonna be Zero.

Zero...

I mean, him being a pervert?

Despite his looks, he's a gentleman through-and-through.

Happy that you'll be kissed, huh?

Oh, well, you know...

Kichinosuke!!!

He'll be here soon...

Soon!

There's no way Zero would be coming here this late!

What kind of a creepy laugh is that?!

Hmmph!

He's here!!!

Yo! You still up?

Oh yes, she's waiting for you with bells on!

K-Kichinosuke, what on earth are you saying?!

Robot Restaurant closed for the day?

Yep, shuts down at 9!

G-Good evening, Zero...

Yo, I got an empty stomach down here!

Got any grub you can whip up?

Well now, what a pickle...

Oh, of course!

Whoo hoo hoo!

Kichinosuke! Get this through your skull!

The next time you decide to act this way,

I'm yanking that Time Telling Circuit right out of you!

- Sorry, won't do it again. - Sure won't.

Please, come in...

Ah, wonder what I should get...

L-Let me get you some coffee!

The heck's all the fuss about? That's soda, ain't it?

Whoops, my mistake!!!

Okay, just calm down...

No, we can't Zero, we can't!!!

We're still only in middle school, right?! Right?!

Zero! Stop! Agh!

Quit it! Agh!

Here you are.

Why you freakin' out over there by yourself?

You switched off the light, didn't you?

Ooh, so sorry.

You get back here!!!

Kichinosuke!!!

The heck's goin' on with those two?

What was this about a pervert again?

J-Jun! I thought you were gonna be thrilled!

I'm making good on my threat to yank out that circuit, so get over here!

Agh!!!

At 12:01, your dad's gonna get burned!

Again with your nonsense, I see.

It's true, though! Really, it's true!

Well, I guess I'll give you one more chance.

It's horrible!!!

Me, get burned? I'm workin' near a flame every single day.

Dear, doesn't it smell off to you in here?

It's coming from here...

The gas alarm is busted!

Hurry, turn it off!

Let's vent this place, quick!

Sheesh, how 'bout that...

If the gas had kept building up for two more hours...

And you lit that cigarette inside here...

I thought you promised not to smoke in the kitchen anymore!!!

I suppose the Time-Telling Circuit can stay exactly where it is.

Glad you figured that out!

Hmmph!

Wakey wakey, Jun!

Wake up!

It's 9 o' clock! Get up!

Wait, it's 9?

Oh for pete's sake, it's still only seven...

Well, I'm reading it as 9! And at 9, you have free study time.

Huh?

First period is going to be for free study, you say?

Yep indeed, you'll have a free period at 9.

A free period, he said?

That's just awesome!

It was a rough night and I need to catch up on my Z's!

We still don't know for sure yet...

Well, I believe in Kichinosuke!

Me too!

Everyone, pay attention please!

Ohata Sensei needed to take a sudden trip,

so our first period will be for free study.

He picked another winner, Jun!

Y-Yeah...

How wonderful!

Oh please, don't think you're so great for knowing it was a free period.

I knew all about it yesterday, after all.

Yeah, because you heard it from Ohata Sensei himself.

Isn't it her job as class rep to fill us all in ASAP?

Oh, but if I did that...

All the class layabouts wouldn't bother showing up, right?

Yo!

Huh...? Where the hell's teach?

I phoned you to say first period would be free, didn't I?

She only told Zero? Talk about unfair!

What an abuse of authority.

...You did, huh?

Yo, Jun.

Got somethin' I wanna ask ya.

Over here.

Wait... ask me?

What could it be?

What's this you wanted to ask?

So, I got somethin' I gotta do at 4:30 today...

Think you could get Kichinosuke to tell me how it's gonna go?

The thing is, Kichinosuke can only predict things two hours in advance.

Really, huh...

So, you're doing something at 4:30...?

Yep...

Well, no big deal.

Ah, I can still help you out!

I can just get Kichinosuke to come here using my Pipi-con!

You can, eh?

- Zero! - Huh?

Free study time has begun! Return to your seats.

Okay Jun, I'm countin' on ya.

Sure!

So wait, 4:30? Just what is going to happen then?

Sounds like Zero believes in Kichinosuke's ability as well!

Of course he would! It ended up saving his life, after all.

I'll need to call Kichinosuke right after gym!

O-Okay! Here I go...

Agh! I can't stooooop!!!

Okay, time to call Kichinosuke!

Huh...?

- What's wrong, Jun? - What's wrong, Jun?

My pouch is missing...

Hello! This is the Harbor Restaurant!

Oh hello, Jun, what do you need...?

Huh?

Kichinosuke isn't here, your father took him to help with new stock.

I really need him at school by 2:30, though...

That's impossible, I'm afraid!

He said they'd be back around 4.

Anyway, it's busy here, so I'm hanging up now!

Yo! Jun!

Almost 2 here, ain't it?

I'm sorry, it turns out I lost my pouch containing my Pipi-con!

Huh...?

Are you worried about some other danger popping up?

Eh, don't worry about it.

Zero!

Would you mind if I went with you in Kichinosuke's place?

Wanna tag along, huh?

Sorry, those shoes're filled already. See ya!

Those shoes are filled...?

So, there must be somebody going with him already...

Where are you taking me?!

Never mind, just hurry!

I'm fine, dammit, now stop fussin'!

He's not going on his bike...

Why would he be getting into Yoko's car?!

That Yoko's plotting something for sure...

Oh, just cheer up already, Jun.

Well...

But what did Zero want to ask Kichinosuke?

Juuuuuun!

Juuuuuun!

You're way too late, Kichinosuke!

Jun! So what was the big rush?

I said you're late, didn't I? I needed you at 2:30.

Oh yeah, that thing.

Huh?

Zero is gonna end up buck-naked in front of Yoko!

Naked?!

It's 4:30, now...

What on earth is he doing naked?

Well, uh...

You can rest easy.

That broken bone of his is as good as new.

Thank you, Daddy!

Zero! You're all clear!

Yeah, just like I was tellin' ya, ain't it?

I'd much rather you get a full check-up than worry about your state after.

Right, Daddy?

Your visits are always quite the affair, young man.

Well Doc, thanks a bunch. I'm headin' out now.

- See ya. - Already?

- Yep. - Zero, wait.

Huh? That's...

I know what your plan was...

You'd get the results from Jun's robot then skip out on the X-ray, right?

So you're the one, huh.

I'll make sure to apologize to Nonomiya later.

What's all this about, Yoko?

Oh, nothing important! Okay, let's go...

I see, he was just getting an X-ray!

Yeah, a check-up from when he fell down the stairs.

You just rest easy!

Ah! Jeepers...

Big brother!

Wh-What's wrong, Kichinosuke?

My -- My body's moving on its own!!!

Some-body-stop-me-please...

Somebody must be messing with the Pipi-con!

Like this, huh?

This one, too...

Zero! Please, you have to hit the stop button!

Powering down...

Yoko asked me to give this back to ya.

Yoko did...?

Okay Kichinosuke, everything's back to normal.

Yo, robot.

What'm I up to two hours from now?

You're up to something...? What are you talking about?

What time is it now, Kichinosuke?

...Parapera minutes after the Heraporoth hour.

Completely messed up...

All that action must've broken that circuit, huh.

Any chance you can fix it?

No...

Aw, who cares.

Knowin' things ahead of time takes the thrill outta life.

Kichinosuke...

I'm just going to teach you how to tell time the way we humans learn.

You're paying attention? So the little hand is for hours, and the big hand for minutes...

So, what time do we have here.

Let's see... It's zero minutes past Jun o' clock!

Zero...? Jun o'clock?

Yeah! So the big hand there is Zero.

And the little hand is pointing at you.

Huh...?

And when the two hands overlap...

Ooh, talk about sweet dreams!

Wow...

Kichinosuke!!!

So sorry!

We're at the amusement park

On a date, eating ice cream

My crocodile tears are shining

in the illumination of the shuttle loop

But because of his warm kindness

I flash my practiced smile

But it's all a dream, isn't it?

Tanabata is such a romantic festival, isn't it?

And Zero's holding a party for it at his place!

But Yoko brought along a full course of French cuisine!

Meanwhile, I'm stuck with the potato dishes Daddy made.

Aw, our food is on entirely different levels!

Hai! Step Jun!
