Shaolin Grandma (Shôrin babaa) (Shôrin rôjo)

It must be here.

Mrs. Kobayash i...

This is it.

Mrs. Kobayashi! You have a reg istered letter.

A reg istered letter!

Mrs. Kobayashi?

I'm coming in.

Mrs. Kobayashi?.

Mrs. Kobayashi?.

Mrs. Kobayashi...

Are you okay?

Mrs. Kobayashi?

Is this the police?

There's a dead granny in this house.

Turning myself in?. No, I didn't do it.

I'm a maiI man.

I came to deliver the mail and found her dead.

Yes... No, come right away!

Okay.

What?. Right here?

Why do I have to stay here?.

Yeah, but I have to finish delivering the mail.

Fine then. But come right away.

Right. The address?

Her address is... Um...

Can you hold on a second?.

This is her address.

2-8, Shimoshakuji, Nerima Ward. She's Miyoko Kobayashi.

Okay. Yes. Thankyou.

Damn. Why do I have to stay here?

Th is gives me the creeps.

My Life?

Her wiIl?

Her wiIl...

It's that granny.

The war ended and I was left an orphan.

It was Chen Lao Tzu who took me in.

He took great care of me as if I was his real daughter.

He taught me the secrets of Shaolin Kung Fu.

Training was harsh and demanding.

Shaolin Temple

But I put my heart and souI into it.

There was no time to care about love or fashion.

I just concentrated on training.

When I turned 20, Chen Lao Tzu handed me the dojo and passed away.

After the master died, many people attempted to take over the dojo.

There were many strong opponents. But none of them were as good as me.

But two years ago during summer...

No, was it fall?

Maybe winter...

Anyway, one day...

Enough of the "Ha! Ha!"

Yo granny, remember me? It's Mr. Pepe. I haven't forgotten what you did to me.

That ain't happening again.

Hold your horses. Listen granny.

You're not going against me today.

Master I ppon-ashi!

Master, that's her. That's the granny.

Master I ppon-ashi is gonna kick alI your asses today.

We're gonna take over this dojo.

Cut the crap!

I'll polish your ass!

Master, let me take care of this.

Hey squirt, stop acting Iike a hero.

Do your best. Just don't humiIiate yourself.

Maro, are you okay?

No wonder they cal I those "God's Legs".
