"Kodomo no Omocha"
Both today and tomorrow, I've got time to kick back.
My family of four and I are going to stay the night.
Put on an Egyptian front and become a sphinx,
and for an American feeling, Texas!
When you're sitting pretty, with enough and to spare,
and yet you always shilly-shally,
and your bitter face and bitter feelings both teeter-totter,
it's time to get out of there!
I am feeling Ultra Relax,
a wonderful, invincible Relax.
A one-step-above kind of Deluxe.
I may be a little jumbled, but when I'm called on, ba-ba-ba-ba-bang!
I always feel Relax,
a humble, simple, sort of Deluxe.
Bright! Clear! Alert-headed, peep-peep!
Keep your eyes on me, okay!?
My name is Kurata Sana, first year middle school student.
Aoki Award-winning author, Mama, the squirrel is Maro-chan.
My manager and driver Rei-kun, also my ex-boyfriend.
The mysterious white Bat Babbit. "Mou Man Tai" is Cantonese.
Hayama Akito, a passionate lone wolf, has always been my friend.
Matsui Fuka, I met her in the bathroom, she's my friend with a western accent.
Akito! Are you really called Hayama Akito? [Seriously what's with her?]
Yeah. That's right.
Because of you...
Because of you, my life became really screwed up!!
The First Kiss Ruined My Life.
Huh!
He's the person who stole my first kiss!
Evil guy!
What?!
Get away, bra-less.
Right.
That's right, it's this face.
I've always wanted to slap you.
You are...
Yeah, remember me now?
Who are you?
Who do you think you're kidding?!!
Ah! Akito-kun! Time to go home!
I remember you, those glasses!
Fuka-chan!
The one who went to Osaka, Fuka-chan?
I remember now.
Buka!
Who's Buka?!
Fuka-chan's turned into a bit of a nag.
You and me are enemies.
It's all your fault, my life is messed up!
What are you going to do about it?!
Hey, excuse me...
...everybody's old friends here...
it seems like I'm the only one that's been locked out of the little house.
It's better to say you're outside in the mosquito net...
Like this! Do you understand?
That happened in kindergarten.
It was an accident.
How can it have ruined your life? That's ridiculous.
Kindergarten? Did you say kindergarten?
it is very ridiculous, you idiot!
You're the one who's ruined me!
Shut up...
Why are you getting all worked up over something so stupid?
It's not stupid!
It was really important to me!
That's right, Aki.
Maybe I don't know what happened, but you're taking it too lightly.
Shut up, now there are 2 annoying women...
We heard you! Aki! Try saying that again!
Trying to escape? Wait!
Running away won't save you, Aki!
Step aside.
Mess up!
Wait up! Aki!
How could he escape so fast? I can't even see his shadow.
Every time I see his face I get so mad.
Fuka, cool down.
So Fuka and Hayama went to the same kindergarten?
Yeah, yeah, I did too. Hikari Kindergarten.
Aki caught me off guard then and suddenly kissed me!
Ehh... but it was in kindergarten, can't you remember it as cute...
Yeah, that's true.
Hahaha...
Mine was last year...
I still feel it...
True, back then I thought it was no big deal.
Pretended it was like saliva touching a bee.
I forgot all about it when I moved to Osaka.
Yes, yes.
But then came sixth grade and everyone was talking about their first kiss.
People talk about that then, right?
Yeah...
I remember when I was talking about it with my friends...
It says the average age for the first kiss is 16.4 years old!
Is that true?
That's hard to believe.
When I get to that age I will too...
Fuka, I bet I know who you'd like to give you your first kiss...
Yeah... Takaishi-kun?
Ah, you're annoying!
Wait...
What's wrong, Fuka?
Actually... I've already had my first kiss!
What?
I already liked someone then.
Takaishi-kun was in the same class as me.
We got along really well with each other.
I was waiting for him to tell me that he liked me.
But the rumor about my first kiss got out...
...and when I told Takaishi-kun I was moving to another city...
That's terrible.
To have had the first kiss already at this age.
He must think I'm ludicrous! Ludicrous?
But I'm pure!
But anyway we moved to Tokyo.
Over, over, over!
Back then I had a life plan.
Where did that chart come from?
Matsui Fuka!
Begin timing!
Elementary school graduation, Takaishi tells me he likes me.
1st year of middle school, we go out.
2nd year, we kiss for the first time.
23 years old, I quit work and get married at Jewel Princess Palace.
But then Aki messed this all up!
It's so sad! I feel so bad for you!
This is too sad, it's all Hayama's fault.
Thanks, Sana.
But don't worry...
Since I can see him in school every day, I don't have to be in a hurry.
In these 3 years, I will get my revenge.
Heh... heh...
Scene change
Akito-kun!
About that kiss in kindergarten...
Don't tell her it was for money, even if it kills you!
Fuka-chan is really, really mad.
It's because she had someone she liked at another school.
A really long time ago.
Kindergarten again today, boring.
Hey Aki, listen, listen!
Yuichi-chin's mom and dad kissed yesterday!
Are you guys stupid?
Kissing between couples is normal.
Aki, so have you kissed anyone before?
No, but I could do it.
No way!
So if I do it, you'll give me 10 yen each?
Sure, but I bet you can't do it!
Buka, Buka.
My name isn't Buka, it's Fuka!
Who cares, just come.
Aki, where are we going? Don't worry about it.
Huh?
See ya.
How is it? I did it.
He did it!
Now everyone, cough up 10 yen each.
Wait! Hey! You bastard!
Now I remember, I did end up making money from it.
From the 60 yen I got...
I got 3 monster eraser balls.
Definitely shouldn't say that.
Are you trying to fool me?
It's true, it's true, Fuka and I are a lot alike.
I understand the meaning of best friends now!
It's so great!
Really?
I'm really happy to be in middle school!
I have more good news to tell you.
What? What?
Hehehe... Sorry...
The cast has been picked for a movie.
It's the work of that hot director Ono Mikio.
You're the star of it!
Yeah?
What, you're not happy?
This great thing happened and you're not happy?
Really? Great, great, that's really exciting news.
Isn't it, isn't it, isn't it?!
The competition was really high. This decision is really good.
I'm such a great manager!
But I guess Hayama really is a kiss monster.
We don't have time to care about Hayama!
After all the hard work, I'm finally making a name for myself.
Hail! To the great manager!
If you want people to praise you, just say so Rei-kun.
Sana-chan's gonna star in a movie again?
Wow... really?
It's been decided already?
Of course!
If you need a ghost from hell to come out, just ask me!
Yeah. Well, it's been decided!
That's right, everybody loves to look at strong muscles!
Sana-chan, you've become very strong.
I have special powers to raise my concentration!
It's nice to see that you're taking it so seriously. Sana-chan!
Sometimes! Really only sometimes.
This only happens once in a while! I can do it every half a year!
The other half a year, I barely get by.
Sana-chan is really...
Wait, wait...
I haven't started acting yet! That was just a prologue!
Wait, let me talk some more before the curtain closes!
Wait! Don't close it!
Wait!
Really loud voice...
Hayama...
Haven't seen you all day... Uh...
Hmm? What's up?
It's about yesterday's incident.
Are you talking about the fact that you're still a kiss monster?
That's not it!
Then what?
What happened in kindergarten and last year... it's not the same.
I can't hear you. If you've got something to say, can't you say it louder?
It's nothing.
Geez, you're a nice guy as a friend...
But as a guy, you give people headaches.
You make people angry.
You're kidding me, you're one to talk.
Watcha mean?
You're a failure at being a woman!
You bra-less brat!
Eh, what's your name?
What your name is, what does that have to do with anything?
We'll stop right here. Time to go to class!
See ya later, kiss monster!
Hey, bra-less!
What?
That's all you wanted to say?
I wanted to tell you that I'm gonna star in a movie.
Women's enemy!
Irritating...
Word beginning with Mu.
The answer is irritating.
"Sana-chan's drawing song" Get your paper and crayon ready!
First there comes a mountain, then water comes splashing down.
Get two cups ready, then add two handles.
Butterflies come flying in,
with tails growing out of their butts.
Here a slope, there a slope, ups-a-daisy,
and draw in the eye like an arrow.
Let's draw one more arrow.
It's time for gym, so bring out two vaulting boxes.
The letter "ku," the letter "ku," the letter "ku," hey!
Then we stick six beans on.
And now we've drawn Sana-chan!
Dance! Dance! Hey! Hey! Hey!
This is the Sana-chan drawing song!
Sorry about bringing this onto you suddenly.
Please continue watching.
Let's begin homeroom.
Akito-kun... homeroom has already started.
He looks like he's in a really bad mood...
Hey Hayama... How dare you come to class late acting like that?
Put the trashcan back where it was.
You're Hayama Akito, right?
So quickly, you're already showing your arrogance.
I heard you caused a lot of problems when you were in elementary school...
But I won't allow that to happen in my middle school class...
So be prepared!
This should be fun.
What?
Akito-kun!
If he sees anybody he doesn't like, he'll just torture them even more.
I understand teachers are people too.
What?
Sensei, sorry!
Hayama-kun is emotionally, no... he isn't feeling well!
He doesn't usually say things like this!
He usually doesn't say much. I really don't know what he's thinking.
Anyway, we're very sorry!
Right? Apologize, Akito-kun.
No.
Hayama, you brat!
Forgive him...
A waste of my effort...
I hoped you'd keep the peace...
I hoped you wouldn't cause problems...
I was trying so hard... I can't take it anymore!
Akito-kun, you idiot!!!
I'm gonna destroy you!
Hayama, destruction of public property.
Hayama-kun is really scary.
True, but also cool.
Cool?
Yeah! Cool!
Are you such a fan of Hayama? I so adore him!
Here...
Thank you, lady.
Have you decided? I'm gonna participate in the Gymnastics Club.
Yeah! Gymnastics!
Thanks, lady!
My gymnastics isn't bad.
I'm very confident about how flexible I am.
OK, we can join together!
Yeah, let's join!
You two are joining gymnastics together?
And Tsuyoshi-kun?
I won't be in any clubs.
I have to take care of my little sister and I have stuff to do at home.
That's really nice of you.
Akito-kun won't be in any clubs either...
because he has Karate.
You're here...
eating curry and acting like you're stupid.
Hey Aki! I remember something else that makes me mad.
What is it?
Aside from Indian curry, [What you remember seeing curry]
there's all kinds of curry. [What you remember seeing curry]
There were these gold and silver paints that I really treasured.
These gold and silver paints...
...I didn't use them and I packed them very carefully...
He took it and drew gold and silver colored Auku.
Auku?
Yes, yes, sorry everyone.
Auku... hmm... auku...? I don't know...
what could it be?
Let's hear Auku backwards!
Auku! Shout it out! Auku!
Poop! Poop! Poop!
Don't reveal what other people said backwards!
You're wrong.
What do you mean?
Ice cream.
I'll get you!
That hurts! That hurts!
Don't yell in the cafeteria.
Even I, the peacemaker, will get into trouble.
Wait, we'll get blacklisted by the teachers!
Well, what do you want me to do about it?
You keep bringing up these things that are way in the past.
Do you want me to buy you some gold and silver paints?
Don't say it like it doesn't mean anything.
Listen, Hayama Aki!
My broken heart is still crying!
He who breaks a woman's heart is the enemy of all women!
You remember that!
Fuka, can I ask you something?
What?
If he really likes you, wouldn't Takaishi-kun forgive you?
Call him, Fuka!
I called him.
I see.
But he already has another girl that he likes.
It's too late.
I'm sorry, I've said too much, I'm sorry.
But Takaishi-kun and I... we really got along well.
He said he liked me.
I'm sorry Fuka.
But I don't like being unhappy!
You OK?
Uh... yeah... I'm alright.
No matter what, I'll make Hayama pay even more!
I'm gonna forget him!
That's right! That's what you should do!
Right yeah! That's what I'll do.
Alright, Fuka! Let's do radio exercises!
Eh? What for?
Don't you wanna be in the gymnastics club?
Do you know how to exercise? Well, fine.
Lift your arm, use your muscles from your back.
Feels good.
Sana-chan is doing the old ladies' exercise!
His nose bleeds everywhere.
I screwed up my commentary again.
Press conference! Press conference! Can you hear me? Press conference!
I heard you! I heard you!
Not good, I'm late for my press conference!!
I can't miss this meeting!
You wasted time exercising!
Hurry up!
Run faster! What'll we do?
This way!
I'm sorry I'm late!
Hey, hey, hey...
Familiar faces!
Hey, Sana-chan! Long time no see!
Asako-san too... good to see you!
Asako-san and this guy seem to be hiding the fact that they're going out.
They are acknowledging each other secretly.
The script will be done in 3 days.
The script isn't done yet, hope it'll be OK.
If it's not ready, we'll ad-lib!
Sana-chan, this isn't a variety show.
That's true!
Asako-san, I didn't know you were going to be in this movie.
They only decided to cast me 5 days ago.
Even Rei didn't know this.
But I'm really happy to be able to act with you.
Yeah, it's been a long time since I saw you.
I'm surprised.
Why?
You grew up.
I was surprised to hear that you were in middle school already.
Eh? So I didn't change?
That's not it, you've grown bigger.
Really?
Growing up is natural for most humans!
Hmm... I didn't know Sana-chan grew taller.
It's probably because I see her every day.
Really?
So you won't come to school once you start shooting on location?
When I'm not here, don't cry.
What do you mean?
When I'm sad, I'm just gonna go to Aki and beat him up!
I gotcha! I gotcha!
Has he always been so willful?
Yeah, as long as I've known him.
Does he seem different?
He's different from kindergarten. Also, we weren't in the same...
elementary school, so when I saw him again I thought he was someone else.
Once I talked to him, I realized he was still the same.
Aki didn't change any.
The same annoying Aki as before.
Yeah?
Please?
Um... because this girl is your fan...
...she wants to take a picture with you...
is that okay?
I'm sorry.
Eh, why not? What harm is there in one picture?
She's really liked you ever since school started.
I don't know what's going on but this is scary.
Just looking at him, you wouldn't think he's such a girl-magnet.
Yes, yes.
Eh? Eh?
Hayama is scary? Scary? Why?
Hmm? What's up?
But... but... when he was...
in elementary school, girls hated him like a hairy caterpillar!
Hayama-kun looks scary! Gives me goose bumps!
Please... just one photo?
No.
It'll be done fast. Just stand next to each other.
I don't even know this girl and to think she will have a picture of her and me.
...disgusts me.
What...
Set-chan, forget about it.
What's wrong with you! You're the worst!
Forget this kind of guy!
Jerk!
Who does he think he is?
Even though his look and his smile seem mean...
...I thought he had become nicer to me.
Hey! Hayama Aki!
If you're gonna refuse, why can't you be a little nicer?
That poor girl is crying!
Hold it!
You should answer when someone asks you something!
It's her fault for approaching me without knowing me.
She's rude-she's the one who didn't even introduce herself.
Hmm... you have a point.
Even so, you still didn't have to ignore her like this.
Shut up!
If I'm nice to someone I don't like, I don't feel that's truly being nice.
You have a point there too.
Let go of me.
What was that look just now?
He...
...with his looks, he's not just another annoying guy.
Huh?
That Hayama. He makes a lot of sense.
He's cool and interesting.
Huh?
Cool? Interesting?
Those aren't things that ever occured to me.
It's fine, It's totally fine.
When you sing this song, your worries will go

It's always the same old nonsense,
My My My My My
(Mm? Could you be fairly dumb?)
and then later comes the whimpering
Cry Cry Cry Cry Cry
(Ahh...) (It's fine, it's fine, it's fine.)
Really that's ridiculous...
It's all "waaa" over here,
and the whole earth is spinning the wrong way.
So at this point now, yeah at this point now,
you can laugh it away. Excuse me, I must be going.
It's fine, it's fine,
When you sing this song, your worries will go
Bye Bye Bye
Cuz you tried your MECHA-KUCHA best
to PECHA-KUCHA out a "Hi!"
So just keep going like this!
Yay Yay Yay Yay
