Tora-san Loves an Artist (Watashi no tora-san)

The Shibamata villagers are suffering from a terrible famine

Is there no god or Buddha?

Merciful Buddha!

This road's dark

Shibamata villagers are all dead? No lights

Of course not!

You cornered all the oil in Japan!

Thepoorcan'tlightlamps!

Rice has gone up too

So has paper

It's because he bought up everything!

Master!

Torajiro's sister!

The traitor's?

She looks like a traitor's sister

She has a hateful face

What's bad about my brother?

He did good for everyone's sake!

Don't talk big!

He'll be hanged if he's caught!

I hope you die!

Wait!

Who're you?

Forget my face, by any chance?

Torajiro Kuruma!

Cruel to my family, weren't you?

I'll mete out devine punishment for our villagers!

Vanish in the Edogawa River, villains!

Sakura!

Brother!

Poor girl. You had a hard time

Torajiro!

Folks!

Shibamata villagers, you're safe now! Your friend has risen!

Hearthat! Voicesofourfriends!

Look! Day is breaking in the eastern sky!

Peace has come to Shibamata village!

Where is this?

Sakai

Sakai? That's bad!

Your bag?

Mister! wait!

Mister, my bag!

Say, wait a minute!

Stop! Stop! Wait a minute!

My journey begins now

I'm back

You're back?

Thanks. Storescrowded?

I'm exhausted

A cool drink

Uncle

You're '"M'" size?

Yes, but '"L'" shorts

I didn't buy any

Heavy? You bought a lot

Cosmetics bag

Toothpastetoo

Your bag. It cost a lot

Mitsuo's shoes. Try them on

What's this?

Buy my hair dye?

High. 800 yen

A lot of sweets - they were cheap

My purse's empty

Only 2 pairs of socks. Are they enough?

Yes, staying only 3 nights

I've never been farther south than Hakone

Niceshoes! Let'sputthemon

I bought you a sweater. Lookook

You seem depressed

What's the matter? Don't you feel well?

I got a temple oracle for safe trips

It's this

It's '"Kyo'". That means bad luck

Thetrip?

It says not to go

I feel it's an unlucky omen

Sakura, I brought you a Kyushu guide

Thanks

What's wrong? You seem unhappy

The temple oracle Uncle got is '"Kyo'". We're disappointed

Nonsense! Who believe them now?

Taishakuten Temple oracles come true

Yes, especially bad luck rarely good luck

That reminds me, about time Brother came back

I see. Tora?

What if he returns when we're away?

People you wait for never come

Good. Good

If he comes by any chance take care of him

Not me! It's no joke!

Why?

I'll humor him an hour or two but not for days!

But you said you'd look after the shop for us

The shop, yes, but not him!

Mind your words!

Friends a long time!

He's not a kid but a fine adult!

Joking? I'd rather take care of a kid any day

What's that?

Not mad? Abusing your brother!

Even old friends shouldn't say such things!

Don't blow up!

We won't ask you! Get out, Octopus!

Octopus?

Aren't you?

No! When Tora returns, I'll tell him!

That my name's Umetaro!

It's too good for you! what else?

Talking behind my back!

The nerve to come here!

Get out, octopus! I said get out!

Fool, like a boiled octopus!

He's stupid but not bad at heart so excuse him, Uncle

What was the fuss about?

Nothing much

I see. Uncle yaks too much too

You're all dressed up

Going somewhere but can't because I'm back?

No, I'm back from shopping

I see

Trains tiresome

I don't wonder

I'll sleep a few hours

All right

Upstairs...

You haven't rented my room?

I see. I'll only stay 3 or 4 days

East, west, home's best

Thanks, men! You must be tired!

I'm taking a trip four day from tomorrow!

A pleasant trip!

Take care

Bring us presents

A send-off gift?

A lonely sort of gift

What's up? Tell him?

How'll we break the news to him? It's hard

Any good idea?

Postpone it a few days?

We can't do that

Tickets bought, inns reserved

Anyway, Sakura, it's your work to tell him

I don't want to

A nice bath!

Hiroshi, working hard?

Aunt, you shouldn't

What? Why?

I said not to prepare a treat

Plain food from tomorrow

My favorite home cooking eh, Sakura?

It's been some time Have a drink

Sakura, a word?

Want to talk to me?

It's a favor we ask

Money? None. Bought a present

It's not money

What is it?

The truth is, we're...

You and Hiroshi are incompatible?

No, we've talked it over paper's high now and work's slack

You're going to quit work?

That's bad. I'd feel sorry for Octopus

If he heard about it, he'd cry

I couldn't watch him

It's not that

Thanks, for saying that

I'm grateful to you

Nonsense. We're all here. Let's have a drink

Hiroshi, I'm thinking about your pay

Good priest

Good evening

I'm glad to see you You're well?

Tora, you're back?

How lucky You can watch the shop then

Well, yes...

I heard you're taking a trip Not much - buy lunches with it

Why, thank you

A charm for a safe journey

Excuseme

Now, you know, Tora

Where to?

Kyushu

Not by train? Are you going to walk all the way to Kyushu?
