Title Screen

Kururu:
April.



Senseisan:
Well, I'll be leaving now.

Senseisan:
Kururu.

Kururu:
Here!

Senseisan:
Chiriri.

Chiriri:
Here.

Senseisan:
Sarara.

Sarara:
Humu.

Senseisan:
Hororo.

Hororo:
Here.

Senseisan:
I'll be back later tonight. See you soon.

Kururu:
Senseisan, where are you going today?

Senseisan:
I have to go to my school entrance ceremony.

Chiriri:
What in the world is an entrance ceremony?

Senseisan:
Oh, um, well, how exactly should I put this? It's a ceremony that marks the beginning of the new school year. Bye.

Kururu:
Ceremony?



Chiriri:
It says here, if we were to perform our own entrance ceremony, we should be able to go to school like Senseisan.

Kururu:
Yay, yay, school, school! Yay, yay, school, school!

Hororo:
I'm feeling just like a human.

Kururu:
It's school time, it's school time!

Sarara:
Wait a sec. What kind of ceremony?
[Note: "Wait a second."]

Kururu:
I think I know! Bam. Buh-bam. Buh-buh-bam! Ahem. Now we will begin the ceremony! Hororin, are you ready?

Hororo:
Yes.

Kururu:
Hannyaka, honnyaka. Hannyaka, honnyaka! Hannyaka!!

Hororo:
(Hannyaka, honnyaka. Huh? Honnyaka sounds like sweet yam cake, konnyaku.)

Kururu:
Hannyaka! Honnyaka! Hannyaka--uh? Hororin?

Sarara:
Something tells that we're not doing this just right. If we're performing a ceremony so we can go to school, shouldn't it be a lot harder?

Kururu:
A lot harder?

Sarara:
Humu.

Chiriri:
So, all we have to do is cross this field, then we can go to school?

Sarara:
Exactly. But we're surrounded by enemies. No wonder it's called a ceremony.

Chiriri:
All right, then. We'll just have to force our way through.

Sarara:
Humu. Tatatatatata!

Chiriri:
Ta tatata tatatata--oh! Ah!

Sarara:
Chiriri! Chiriri! You have to get up.

Chiriri:
Sarara-chan, please do not let me slow you down. Go to school. Go on without me. Oh.

Sarara:
Chi--Chiriri! No. Noo!

Kururu:
Hey, Sararin! Chiririn!

Sarara:
Huh?

Kururu:
What do you think this is?

Hororo:
Huh?



Kururu:
Oborochan is a cat with wings who continues an endless journey in order to find her mother's enemy. Please give Oborochan a helping hand. Poor cat.

Chiriri:
Poor Oborochan.

Sarara:
He has a true samarai spirit.

Hororo:
Aw... Aw...

Kururu:
We must help Oborochan.

Chiriri:
Yes.

Sarara:
Humu.

Kururu:
Wake up, Oborochan!

Kururu:
Best of luck to you, Oborochan. I sure hope you'll be able to find your mother's enemies.

Chiriri:
Please don't forget to write us soon.

Sarara:
May all your dreams come true.

Hororo:
Bye-bye. Take care.

Chiriri:
I don't think he wants to leave.

Sarara:
I guess not.



Chiriri/Kururu:
Thank you for the food.

Sarara:
Humu.

Sarara:
It's crust. Good crust.

Kururu:
Yahoo! Ham! Tomato! Lettuce! Goal!



Tamachan:
Hello, come on in. Ask anything you want to know. I'm the most helpful elementary school student in Japan. I am Tamachan. So, is there anything you wanted to ask?

Chiriri:
Yes. There is something we would like to know. What exactly is a real entrance ceremony?

Tamachan:
Oh! A ceremony? Well, let's see. That's a very difficult question, and great scholars have been researching it for many years. There are several different theories I adhere to. (Gasp.) If you do a ceremony, a scary ghost will come. When you ask about a ceremony, it is said that a big, scary ghost will come. Are you sure you still want to know about it?

Tamachan:
Well, anyway, that's enough for that! It's time for flower-viewing. Look at the Yoshinos!

Fairies:
Huh?

Kururu:
Whose nose?

Kururu:
Chiriri.

Chiriri:
Kururu.

Kururu:
Tamachan, I don't think it's very much fun to watch someone else's nose.

Tamachan:
No, not nose. Yoshinos are big trees.



Sarara:
I get it now. This is what flower-viewing is about.

Kururu:
Yeah! I know all about it because I watched TV with Tamachan and studied flower-viewing.

Chiriri:
Getting a perfect spot is critical.

Chiriri:
That was a very boring ceremony.

Sarara:
You said it.

Sarara:
Flower-viewing does have karaoke.

Kururu/Hororo/Chiriri:
Yay!

Kururu/Hororo/Chiriri:
Yay!

Sarara:
Does anybody have any music?

Kururu:
Not really.

Hororo:
Let's see, a flower-viewing has...

Kururu:
Whoa, ah! Flower-viewings have crazy, drunken people! ...who scream really loud! ...and shake their fists in the air! Like this! And this! Am I close?

Sarara/Chiriri:
Mm.

Sarara:
If you ask me, you don't look like you're drunk.

Chiriri:
I don't drink, so I wouldn't know.

Sarara:
It says right here in this book, the son of a drunken man does not want to inherit their house because it spins and spins and spins.

Kururu:
Sararin, you're so smart!

Chiriri:
I'm so happy you now understand flower-viewing, Kururu.



Senseisan:
I'm ho--huh?
[Note: "I'm home."]

Kururu:
Whoa... Welcome home, Senseisan.

Kururu:
After the party, we told Senseisan that Oborochan had become our friend. He was a little surprised.
