"Kodomo no Omocha"
The rumor that I love you is true. Yes it is.
Whether you're awake or asleep…
You can't avoid it,
…so don't worry about it.
If I sneak into your heart by ridding you of that other love…
…is that a sin?
At sunset, when the children go home,
today's incident is burning love!
You can be sure of it!
7 O'Clock News!
Please, our relationship…
Ah, don't condemn me for a true kiss…
This town without fire…
Let's ignite it with our love!
Ah, don't live carelessly!
That's asking for too much!
I'm Kurata Sana, a 6th grader and TV personality.
My Aoki award-winning Mama. The chipmunk on her head is Maro-chan.
My chauffeur, manager, and ex-pimp, Rei-kun.
The mysterious white bat straight man.
I'm Babbit.
Hayama Akito, my natural enemy and good friend, I suppose.
Mitsuya-sensei and Tanaka-sensei.
A love-love couple who are very close to each other.
"Love Tastes Like Curry"
—"The Funny Teachers —"The Funny Teachers
—at Our School" Corner! —at Our School" Corner!
Okay, thank you for your lettuhs!
Our lettuh this time is from a school
where they have a very close couple that are hot for each othuh!
What kind of couple?
They're teachuhs who are… getting it on with each othuh.
"Our teachers are ones who are about to get married,
and stick all over each other, even in front of the students."
That's what they write!
Aah! How embarrassing for the school!
Well, next week, we're gonna go visit your school, Sasaki Tsuyoshi-kun!
Be expecting us!
Okay!
You mean, that's Tsuyoshi-kun, from my school?
Oh, no doubt about it.
What, you mean that's your school, Sana-chan?
The one where the boys and the goils are on hostile toims with each othuh?
That was a long time ago!
Right now, we even have teachers making it with each other,
and it's the very picture of friendship and peace.
By all means, come visit us.
"Or so she says…"
What's happening?
You guys didn't clean up, so get on out of here!
—Yeah! —Yeah! —Yeah!
Is this only your classroom!?
Sana-chan… Sana-chan…
What happened?
Get down, it's dangerous there!
Things have gone back to the way they were before.
That's not good.
Tsuyoshi-kun, you sent a postcard to "Child's Toy," right?
Huh? How did you know?
Because it was read.
You mean, my name is going to be heard all over the country?
On top of that, "Child's Toy" is coming to visit our school next week.
And yet…
…what is the meaning of this!?
Ooh, this bloodlust is incredible…
What are you doing, Sana-chan!?
Don't tell me you're going to take the boys' side!
Tsuyoshi, what do you think you're doing, taking the girls' side!?
I was just telling Sana-chan what the current situation is.
I don't know whose fault it is.
The current situation?
Whose fault it is?
Tsuyoshi-kun, a moment…
What on earth happened?
A-as it happens…
Do it normally!
…something terrible happened yesterday at cleaning time!
What? What? What?
Gomi-kun started arguing with Hisae-chan and the others.
Then Mitsuya-sensei came in and gave them a warning.
That's when the problem started.
What's going on? Are you goldbricking on cleaning again, Gomi-kun?
Well… you know…
Yeah, sure. I can understand how you don't like to clean.
Tanaka-sensei, you shouldn't be saying that.
It's their turn to do it, so they need to do it properly.
It would be wrong not to do it.
Yeah, but after we do it, these guys complain about it. Right?
—Yeah! —Yeah! —Yeah!
"Did you clean this? It's positively filthy!
Gomi-kun, you really do like gomi ("trash"), huh?"
Oh, I can understand that! It never fails.
Even when you do it right, you get snapped at.
Am I right, Mitsuya-sensei?
But they aren't doing it right. They're barely doing it at all.
That's not true!
—You're not doing it! —You're not doing it! —You're not doing it!
But boys aren't very good when it comes to cleaning…
That's right, Sensei! That's right!
What do you mean by that?
Is that what you think, Norio-san?
Were you lying when
you said we'd do the cleaning and laundry together once we got married?
No, I wouldn't say I was lying…
You were going to say you weren't any good at it, and push it all on me, huh?
But Mitsuya-sensei, you're so good at cleaning…
That's right. People who are good at it should be the ones who do it.
Yeah. I like what you're saying, Gomi.
Nonetheless, you sure take good care of that crazy five-storied pagoda of yours.
Five-storied pagoda?
Not this again…
That five-story pagoda…
…is my heart and soul!
It just has "Heart and Soul" written on it, right?
They mean this.
Hey, you can't talk to me like that!
"Hey"?
Did you just say "hey" to me?
Yeah, I said it! I'm the kind of man who says "hey" to his wife!
Ha! You sure are old-fashioned and hardheaded!
—Your way of thinking is outdated! Right? —Old-fashioned! Low-grade! —Old-fashioned! Low-grade!
And I'm not doing my hair up!
Doing your hair up and wearing a wedding kimono is a Japanese tradition!
Like this!
I'm not wearing that! I want a wedding dress!
You're so stubborn!
Hardhead! Anyhow, the girls are not cleaning!
—That's right! We're not! —That's right! We're not! —That's right! We're not!
Fine! The boys aren't doing it, either!
Yeah, why should we!?
Doesn't it somehow seem that this problem has doubled?
So, Hisae-chan and Gomi-kun called out to the others, and ultimately…
It turned into this, did it?
Tanaka-sensei is the worst! Why does he have to be so high-handed?
How so?
Oh, are you here, Hayama? Does it bother you?
Not really.
I've got this!
The personality assessment notebook!
According to this, if you marry a man
who treasures his heart-and-soul five-story pagoda,
nothing good will come of it.
So?
So, it means that Mitsuya-sensei is right
—when she says you should clean up for yourself, doesn't it!? —Shut up.
—when she says you should clean up for yourself, doesn't it!? —She's still talking to you.
Ah, come to think of it, I've never seen you do any proper cleaning, Hayama!
Hey! Hayama!
"Shut up"!? Did you just say "shut up" to me!?
Didn't you hear me?
I dare you to say it again!
Shut up.
Screech!
That does it, that does it, that does it!
What are you, a cow?
—That does it! Now I'm furious! —Kurata-san!
Sensei! I just heard the whole situation!
Sana-chan…
Everyone, I'm taking Mitsuya-sensei's side!
Once you get married, let the husband clean, and do laundry,
and cook three times a day!
There goes Kurata Sana!
What was that? Don't go talking it up the way you want it!
What? What? What? You've got a problem with that?
If you've got something to say, then ba-ba-ba-bing, say it!
You won't say it? If you won't say it, then how about I say it for you?
Come on, don't cry, speak up!
—We can't beat her with words. —You guys are always making so much trouble…
Hayama-san!
You came back!
Hayama! Is that what you mean!?
It doesn't matter either way, does it?
Either way? It doesn't matter either way!?
Sana-chan has snapped!
You boys stay dirty, and don't clean up!
What!?
I declare an all-out battle with the boys!
Kurata Sana, on behalf of the girls of 6th Year, 3rd Class!
Girls, let's hang tough!
Somebody come forward and represent the boys!
—Hayama-san… —Oh, me? —Oh, me?
On behalf of the boys, Gomi!
And Kojima!
And Itami!
This is terrible. If this keeps up,
I'll be kept away from Aya-chan forever!
There was a lot I wanted to talk to Aya-chan about today.
Ah, Aya-chan noticed me…
—Sana-chan, your face is getting in the way! —Aya-chan!
Can't we talk to each other, Aya-chan?
What will these two's destiny be?
Okay, Sensei, let's get class started.
But the boys…
I think we can leave the boys alone.
No class for the boys!
We can't have that!
I heard everything!
Where did you hear it from?
Mitsuya-sensei, what is the meaning of this?
Are you still bent out of shape about what happened earlier?
Will the gentleman who is hardheaded about me
wearing my hair up please remain quiet.
The traditional hairstyle is the man's romantic ideal!
I told you, I want to wear a dress!
Very well! As long as we don't see eye-to-eye, then as a guy,
I will teach the guys!
Be my guest!
Guys, class is starting!
Girls, we're starting, too!
Come on, let's go!
Aya-chan, let's all fight together!
Tsuyoshi-kun…
Aya-chan…
Tsuyoshi-kun…
Aya-chan…
"The classroom is split in half"
Okay then, girls, as girls…
And guys, as guys…
—…class is starting! —…class is starting!
First period is Social Studies, right? How far have we gotten?
—The Kamakura Shogunate! —The Kamakura Shogunate! —The Kamakura Shogunate!
That's right! The Kamakura Shogunate!
Do it normally, already!
She's all fired up!
Sensei, things are looking up.
I didn't think he had such issues!
You mean, Tanaka-sensei has "ish" shoes?
I've never seen him wear anything but sandals.
Those aren't the kind of "shoes" she means!
Will you please stop badmouthing others!?
Another thing that's weird is the way he cries as he plays the harmonica.
Guys, your first period will be Harmonica Class!
Sensei, it's Social Studies…
What's wrong with the harmonica!?
The timbre that makes one long for home!
Everyone else, start playing too!
Such a heartrending timbre!
You really are weird!
Aya-chan, what are you doing right now?
There's a great wall of the sexes between us, huh?
"Wall of the Sexes" There's a great wall of the sexes between us, huh?
Just how long will it take before this wall is gone?
Will that day soon come? That day… that day!
Sasaki! Stop spacing off!
Right!
The Kamakura Shogunate was established in 1192.
Keep it down!
What a jerk!
Sensei, we won't be beat! Let's use my Norinori!
"Sana-chan and the others sing" I think harmonicas are nice, too.

Ooh, listen to that!
I can't take this.
What is 3rd Class doing here!?
Just what you see here. Any questions?
Any questions!?
You're being too loud in here like this!
It's still better than your grating voice, you wrinkled hag.
Wrinkled… wrinkled hag?
Makeup!
This is an alarming situation! I'm reporting you to the principal!
Go ahead, feel free! This is the girls' fault, after all!
Andoh-sensei, please don't be fooled!
This is the boys' fault! Everyone, call Andoh-sensei over!
—Let's limbo!! —Let's limbo!! —Let's limbo!!
Limbo!
Clear!
Andoh-sensei!
I won't hear of it! I'm going to report those of you over here
to the principal, too, understand?
Ah, she's snapped!
Go ahead! Andoh-sensei, you're so angry all the time, it gives you more wrinkles!
Makeup!
Way to go, Mitsuya-sensei!
Alarming… this is beyond alarming!
Principal!!
Don't run in the hall!
Sensei, you can't let the boys get off easy on this.
They'll just take advantage of it right away.
After you get married, you'll be the one left crying, Mitsuya-sensei.
You're right! It's all-out resistance!
"All-out resistance" In other words, fighting to the very end. You see? Okay.
"All-out resistance" Okay, Baby's Rock!
When can I see you again, Tsuyoshi-kun?
Aya-chan, I'll make sure I come see you,
and overcome this wall.
You work it out with "guts"!
"Enter Narunaru"
Principal, hurry, hurry!
We mustn't run in the halls.
Are you sure you should be doing that?
Ordinarily, it would be wrong.
In any case…
—It's the boys' fault! —It's the boys' fault! —It's the boys' fault!
So you see…
—It's the girls' fault! —It's the girls' fault! —It's the girls' fault!
I declare! To split the room in half and hold class like this is unprecedented,
right Principal?
This is indeed an alarming situation!
Principal, what is your decision?
It'll be fine-fine… It'll be fine-fine…
I knew he would say that.
This day is dragging on a long time, huh?
We got the principal's okay!
—Boys! Boys! Boys! —Boys! Boys! Boys! —Boys! Boys! Boys!
Ah! Will I never be able to see Aya-chan again for the rest of my life?
Aya-chan!
You're doing fine, huh?
All right, I can't let this beat me, either!
I won't be beaten!
That's it, Sasaki! That's the spirit!
"School lunch time"
Kurata! Don't run in the hall!
That goes for you, too! Ah, Kojima-kun, you're not wearing any underpants!
Thank goodness, I am wearing them.
Kurata, you tricked me!
Zing!
And so, for today's lunch, we're having the roux sauce for curry rice!
The boys took the rice away on us, but come on, rice by itself?
The girls win this one!
Well done, Kojima!
Nothing beats rice for us Japanese boys, right?
The boys have as good as won this round!
Tsuyoshi-kun isn't here…
"The two of them walk a thorny path"
This certainly is a thorny path. Ow!
Aya-chan? Aya-chan?
Tsuyoshi-kun!
Over here, over here!
Wow, thanks, Aya-chan!
Don't tell anyone.
—"We humbly accept!" Delicious! —"We humbly accept!" Delicious!
Let's be the only ones who aren't fighting, okay?
Mm-hmm!
Oh, and right about there, I say nice going, Tsuyoshi!
Just the curry by itself is like having stew, and it's yummy, huh?
—Yummy! —Yummy! —Yummy!
Just rice by itself isn't so great.
Is this what it's going to be like every day?
"Thanks for the meal."
"Thanks for the meal!"
Tsuyoshi, you sure seem happy.
I like rice, after all.
Ah, you've got curry on the corner of your mouth!
What!?
Where?
Huh? Must have imagined it…
"The battle continues"
"Us girls will win! Home Ec Special Class Special Lecture: Arranging your Furniture" The girls are getting a special lesson
"Us girls will win! Home Ec Special Class Special Lecture: Arranging your Furniture" in Home Economics?
Wow, how cute!
See? Isn't it cute? It's my dream to live in a European-style house like this.
That's the dream of any girl.
Today, let's think of the ideal way to place everything.
And the boys?
"Boys are sure to win. Lesson: Learning the Spirit of Japan"
A class on learning the spirit of Japan?
No fooling around!
Pfft! Calligraphy.
Japanese men live in houses with tatami mats!
Everyone, let's study the spirit of Japan!
I'm not very good at calligraphy, though.
Ah, I goofed up.
The boys' garbage is coming this way!
Hey, boys! Don't throw your garbage away over here!
Now what is it?
Your garbage came over here!
Garbage?
This!
"Japan" Will you boys please throw away your own garbage?
Are you calling the spirit of Japan garbage!?
—It's the boys' fault! —It's the boys' fault! —It's the boys' fault!
—What did you say!? —What did you say!? —What did you say!?
Show these girls the spirit of Japan!
How could they!?
What do we do?
Let me handle this!
Kurata is starting up!
"The tragedy continues on forever" After school…
Hayama! Clean up before you go!
—Hayama-san! —Hayama-san! —Hayama-san!
—Hey, boys! —Hey, boys! —Hey, boys!
This week's Sana-chan.
Why do boys hate to clean? That I do not know.
But the girls' view is right on this, isn't it?
Humans are animals that like to fight by nature.
We don't like to fight! This is all because the boys are wrong!
We know that it's wrong to wage war, but just take a look at human history.
They repeat themselves over and over again, don't they?
Forcing your views on others, and the pleasure taken in holding them down…
that's what we cannot give up.
Am I wrong?
That's not it, I tell you. What do you think I should do?
Maro-chan!
"Advice ¥10"
You're charging me money!?
If you don't like it, go somewhere else!
Here!
When you can sincerely think of others, and attain a state of selflessness,
the answer will naturally present itself.
Give me my money back.
You think I can become that sort of sage-like person?
Your mother will!
Whatever your failures, or your mistakes,
I will always hold you in my arms with motherly love.
No matter how dirty you leave your room, or how little you clean up,
your mother forgives you!
Sensei, you don't have any room to speak.
Aw, look how much you've messed it up in here again…
That's right! Shimura-san does the cleaning around the house, doesn't she?
Which is why I told you I don't know.
The battle goes on for days on end!
"6th Year 3rd Class Boys Entrance" Today we're having spaghetti, huh?
I did it! I got the meat sauce!
Which means the girls get only noodles! That's too bad!
I thought this might happen, so ta-da!
Tarako sprinkles!
We're going to have Tarako spaghetti!
That was sneaky, you girls!
Spaghetti sure is salty with just the meat sauce, huh?
Mm-hmm.
What's wrong, Aya-chan?
To think we'd have to sneak around like this.
How long is this going to go on?
I've had enough of this, myself.
After all, I liked cleaning and doing laundry from the start…
…and you, more than anything, Aya-chan…
Tsuyoshi-kun…
"The final battle"
Ba-bing, ba-bing, get going already!
Principal, look at that! There seems to be an air of seriousness down there!
Are they fighting?
I'll go look into it.
Why don't you?
Stop the violence!
Would you please admit defeat already!?
—Yeah! Yeah! —Yeah! Yeah! —Yeah! Yeah!
Why don't you end this futile resistance!?
—Yeah! Yeah! —Yeah! Yeah! —Yeah! Yeah!
What is this?
It's not just inside the classroom, but out on the school grounds as well?
Look out, Andoh-sensei!
There's a ditch there!
Are you okay, Andoh-sensei?
How could you miss a ditch this huge?
Ah! I forgot! They're coming today!
Hello, Sana-chan's school!
The "Child's Toy" ambush reportuh team is here!
Zenjiro!
Special makeup!
Zenjiro-san!
—Sana-chan! —It's dangerous there!
What?
What's with this ditch!?
Oh, that's the gulf between the boys and the girls.
A gulf between boys and goils? Are you all fighting or something?
Well, you see…
Sana-chan, you mean the teachuhs at your school aren't hot for each othuh,
and the boys and goils here don't awl get along well?
It's like this…
What? What's it like?
What I mean is, pretend I never said that, okay?
What are you talking about, Sana-chan?
Change of plans!
We're going to have a compelling broadcast of the final conflict…
…between the woild's most contentious boys and goils!
"So, what are you going to do?"
A limbo dance tournament! Let's li-!
"Child's Toy #33: World's most contentious girls vs. boys… knocking game of love" "Child's Toy #33:
"Child's Toy #33: World's most contentious girls vs. boys… knocking game of love" World's most contentious girls vs. boys…
"Child's Toy #33: World's most contentious girls vs. boys… knocking game of love" knocking game of fury"
In this game, everyone takes shots at each other, and whoever fawls off loses.
Whichevuh side loses has to openly admit their loss,
and follow the othuh side. Got it?
Okay, begin!
I got him! The girls win one!
Fall down already, Hayama!
I hate losing.
Okay then, Burutcha!
Burutcha counter.
You brought it on yourself.
Okay! The score at this point is a tie, with boys 8, goils 8!
When it comes to limbo dancing,
even point-one millimeters is okay with me!
—So, who do we have remaining? —Oh, you're embarrassed!
Oh, it's Tsuyoshi-kun, who sent us the postcard,
along with the ones who are said to be the woild's woist couple,
Tanaka-sensei and Mitsuya-sensei, as well as?
Sugita Aya-chan.
Right!
Go, Tsuyoshi!
Show them the power of boys!
Aya-chan, fight!
Get him as hard as you can!
Aya-chan, we'll be together forever, right?
Yes. Wherever we go…
—…we'll be together! —…we'll be together!
Aya-chan!
Tsuyoshi-kun!
Wow… they showed us some great drama, huh?
Enough of that!
At this point, it comes down to the final confrontation,
between Tanaka and Mitsuya, the two teachuhs!
Traditional hairstyle!
Wedding dress!
Incredible force!
It's scary!
This is for real. This is what you call a real fight.
I… I love you… I'm in love with you…
so I want you to look your best!
I love you, too! That's why I want you to look even better by wearing a tuxedo!
Really?
Is that right?
Hey, now…
Uh, in that case, why don't you both change outfits at the reception?
He's right…
Yes, he is.
—We could always do that. —We could always do that.
Well…
Goodness me…
I love you, Mitsuya-sensei.
I love you, Tanaka-sensei.
—I love you. —I love you. —Uh, excuse me,
but what about the contest?
—Mitsuya! —and Tanaka…
—…declare the recommencement —…declare the recommencement
—of their state of love-love! —of their state of love-love!
Girls, I am not going to throw away the five-story pagoda!
Was this about the five-story pagoda!?
Boys, getting along is the most important thing!
After coming this far, that's it!?
—Enough of this, you guys! This won't make for a good show! —Zenjiro-chan!
Hey! What about the issue between the boys and the girls!?
It doesn't matter.
Hayama didn't appear very much this time around.
Our apologies to all his fans.
Why did we have to go through all of this?
To deepen our love.
Fighting is useless, and all for nothing!
"Back against the wall."
That's what you say about times like these.
In dire straits,
I've been waiting for an answer.
My confessions are worked out long in advance,
to always go along with the scenario.
My heart may be settled, but my mind is in a…
…panic!!
When my friends invite me by, suddenly,
he's there.
And our usual classroom…
…quick-changes into a merry-go-round…
…for two.
Although I've said nothing but wisecracks…
…up to now, just for today,
I'm going to be honest and sincere,
so BOY, take a look my way!
When my friends invite me by, suddenly,
he's there,
And our usual classroom…
…quick-changes into a merry-go-round…
…for two.
Hoy! In Sana-chan's next adventures…
The 6th grade TV personalities at the height of popularity, Tobita Mayu-chan,
Ayanohanamarukoji Tomomi-chan, and myself, Kurata Sana, have formed an idol trio!
We're a group of three 6th-grade girls, so our name is "Shorokutai."
Oh, you can't wait, can you?
Next time on Kodomo no Omocha, Episode 34; The Song, Dance, and Guest saga,
A Singing Heart Goes 3,2,1
"Shorokutai"? What kind of naming is that? That's just nonsense.
