For you...

I have protected...

My woman's honor...

I cannot...

Grant that...

To someone now...

Enough!

I promise...

That I won't...

-Get in your way! -Hey!

-Hey! -Please let me...

-Stay by your side! -Hey.

I'll give you something nice. Be quiet!

Open it.

Okay.

That will help you sleep soundly.

"Wake up! Tamasaburo's brain!"

Sleepy.

One. Two.

One. Two.

One. Two.

One. Two.

One. Two.

Mako. Where is Nemulin?

Sleeping.

Really? Didn't she sleep for 800 million years?

One. Two.

How much sleep does she need?

Are you being sarcastic?

Not at all.

Hey! Tamasaburo!

How much will you eat?

You have junior high exams next year.

You won't get into Horikoshi like that.

Another.

That's right.

Nemulin can...

make things move...

that usually don't move, right?

She said she could just wake something that was sleeping.

Is that right?

I'll never drink again.

Good morning, Dad.

Good morning.

Another work event?

There's nothing I could do.

Do you want food?

Or water?

Which one?

I don't need either.

I see.

Nemulin.

Nemulin.

Nemulin!

Nemulin!

Sleepy.

That's odd.

Ring!

Ring!

Wake up, Nemulin!

Wake up, Nemulin!

Cockadoodle do!

Cockadoodle do!

Are you an idiot?

Listen, dear.

What is it?

-It's about Nemulin. -Perfect.

If she is going to live here, she should help out.

Can you talk to Mako?

-So close! -Dear!

The person who began the Edo Shogunate.

I don't know.

The capital of America.

I don't know.

Nemulin. I heard you can wake...

-something that is sleeping. -Yes.

Please, Nemulin. Wake up...

my sleeping brain!

You might have noticed, but...

I am dumb.

Okay!

I am honest, right?

Yes.

Honesty is my only asset.

Please, Nemulin!

Wake up my sleeping...

brain!

I don't know if it will go well, but...

-I'll try it. -What? Really?

-Yes. -Do it quickly!

All done!

It feels like...

my brain is better.

The person who began the Edo Shogunate.

I don't know.

The capital of America.

I don't know.

It turns out...

your brain was...

very awake the whole time.

What?

Slight fever!

This is bad.

Bad!

This is bad!

It's a serious situation!

What happened?

This is bad! It's Tamasaburo.

My brain was awake.

Dear. Call the doctor.

He's fine.

Tamasaburo?

Does it hurt?

Does it hurt?

It hurts.

Does it hurt more than this?

Dear! What are you doing?

What are you doing?

Tamasaburo.

Here.

I see.

Now that you said it...

you do let me stay here for nothing, but I...

just sleep.

It's not that it's bad.

When adults get busy...

they get mad.

We just need to work.

-What? -Work us to the bone!

-Nemulin? -No.

Vivian and Monroe.

Can I help you?

Okay, Mako.

-I'll leave them to you. -What will you do?

I'm a bit sleepy.

Mako.

Nemulin said that she would leave us to you, but...

what do you plan to make us do?

Help Mom and Dad.

This is so unfair.

Why do we need...

to work?

I don't know!

Monroe? Is that all you can say?

I get mad too!

-Really! -You!

-I've had enough! -Hey!

I'll do you in!

This is it.

-I'll really do you in! -Would you two stop?

Stop!

I am Vivian.

I am Monroe.

It is a pleasure to meet you.

Your uniform looks so lovely.

I like this style.

Nakayama.

I'm not a fish on a grill.

What?

-Okay. -Nakayama.

Weren't you giving me air...

to lower my fever?

What?

Right.

Seiko.

Toshi.

Sir! Ma'am!

-Sir! Ma'am! -Yes?

It is already noon.

All I need...

is pork cutlet and rice.

-What? -What?

It is a pleasure to make your acquaintance!

I like your uniform!

Let's play!

Nemulin. Wake up. Nemulin.

Nemulin!

Thank you for this meal.

-You're welcome. -Go ahead.

It is tough.

-Ma'am -Yes?

-You too, sir. -What?

I understand.

Having a son like Tamasaburo who is so dumb...

I can only imagine...

the struggle you two face.

I...

feel so much sympathy for you.

Nakayama!

Goodbye then.

Wake up, Nemulin! It's Vivian and Monroe!

How wonderful!

-Wait. -Look over here.

You woke up the sleeping bicycle?

So high.

Someone save me!

(NEMULIN)

Okay? From now on...

be more careful.

We apologize.

We apologize.

Sorry.

What are those?

Animals?

They're still too disrespectful!

What a bother.

Dear.

I have made my decision.

-What? -Nemulin and the others must leave.

How?

Leave it to me.

Really?

Really?

This family was that poor?

Yes! We are so poor!

We have...

assorted appliances at home, but...

we are really in terrible debt!

Dad!

That's...

Dear!

Yes. We have tons of debt.

I hit up loan sharks...

for a billion yen.

Really?

Dad's salary drops...

-every year. -What?

Yes! Dropping all the time!

At the end of this year...

our whole family...

may have to commit suicide.

Nemulin.

You can see how poor we are.

You have to...

feel sympathy, right?

Well...

I guess.

I see. Good.

-Dad! -Mom!

Is that right?

We're that poor?

I didn't know we were so poor.

In the end, I did the shopping.

Nemulin and the others...

left this home?

Yes.

Vivian. Monroe.

What should we do now?

Don't worry.

I'm with you.

I can take care of you.

Really?

We just need to work.

Just work.

You'll do that?

Not me. Monroe.

Monroe. Work hard...

so that we can be comfortable.

I don't know!

You dolt!

What are you saying?

What about our friendship?

Want to do this?

You!

I want to visit a strange town...

-All alone... -What?

I want to go somewhere...

Far away...

Tamasaburo!

-Isn't that awful, Dad, Mom? -Yes.

Why didn't you ask me about this?

Talk to me about this.

Hello. This is the Oiwa home.

Nemulin?

That's right! Tamasaburo!

He left home because we're poor?

-What? -What?

I give up.

-Wait. -I shouldn't talk about...

going to Horikoshi to be a star.

For a poor family like mine...

elementary school is a luxury.

Why did you two say...

that we were so poor that we couldn't survive?

We didn't know Tamasaburo was listening.

I can't believe this!

I didn't know Tamasaburo was so delicate...

that being poor would make him run away.

I can't believe this!

Tamasaburo! Calm down!

Calm down!

-Stop. -Wait.

Do you know the pain of poverty?

Tamasaburo!

Brother!

-Tamasaburo! -Brother!

Mako.

It was a lie that we're poor.

Although we certainly aren't rich...

Mako. Don't you know?

You don't know the truth!

-Say something, Mom. -Yes.

Tamasaburo. I said that...

to get Nemulin and the others to leave.

Nemulin. My apologies.

-Sorry. -Sorry.

Tamasaburo. That is what happened.

Mako. Don't be tricked.

Dad and Mom...

are just trying to calm me.

-It's a common trick of poor people! -What?

Mako. Don't worry.

I will work.

Even if I need to sell myself...

I will put you through elementary school.

In this world...

especially women...

need to graduate elementary school...

in order to survive.

Yes.

We can't survive.

Nemulin. What should I do?

Tamasaburo! Mom, Dad...

and Mako's family is rich.

How do you know that?

I overheard your mom and dad talking about buying...

-a vacation house. -What?

What?

Right, sir?

What? Well...

-Right? -Yes.

In Karuizawa.

Right, dear?

Yes! In Karuizawa...

we'll buy three vacation homes with their own sumo rings.

-Dear! -What?

-Let's buy that too. -That?

Right? In Shinjuku?

Yes! That tall skyscraper!

Let's buy that too.

One of those is around 100 quintillion yen.

Cheap, right?

What about Tokyo Tower?

-Let's buy a bank. -Good thinking.

So, let's go home.

Tamasaburo.

-Come. -Yes.

Wow.

That feels great.

That does feel great!

It feels great.

That feels so nice.

Maybe I'll buy a bath like this.

-Okay. -Here.

Thank you!

Dear.

-What? -This isn't a bath.

It's a park.

I see.

-You aren't home. -Right.

Okay, Tamasaburo. Let's go home.

Dad will buy you dinner tonight.

Whatever you want.

-Let's go home. -How nice.

There we go.

What about French-style Chinese?

Nice.

What about Russian...

soba?

Amazing!

It seems like it all worked out.

I wasn't sure what was going to happen for a while.

But, Nemulin.

What will happen to us?

I don't know!

No one was asking you!

They say they can afford a skyscraper in Shinjuku.

My parents have to let you stay now.

-Okay. Dad wants ramen, right? -Yes.

Nemulin?

Me too!

-Vivian? -Me too!

-Monroe? -Me too!

-I'll have ramen too then. -Is that right?

Tamasaburo?

I want chashumen.

-No! Please have ramen! -What?

Hello?

I'm sorry for the wait.

We will have seven ramen.

I don't understand.

I don't understand.

If they can buy a vacation home...

with a sumo ring in Karuizawa and a skyscraper in Shinjuku...

why can't they let me eat chashumen?

I don't understand!

I don't understand this!

(TO BE CONTINUED)

(PREVIEW)

In order to make Tamasaburo's dream come true...

I would use a magic stone...

from the strange land.

But Monroe...

told him that even odd stones can make wishes come true.

Next time on Nemulin...

"The strange brooch."

Be sure to watch!
