Nichijou: My Ordinary Life (日常)

What's up, Yuuko?

I've got zero motivation.

You serious right now?

But we like, just started a new semester.

Think of the possibilities.

I'm sure you'll find something that gets you motivated

if you get the ball rolling.

I can barely roll out of bed, let alone roll a ball.

How am I supposed to find the motivation to be motivated, huh?

A motive for motivation. Hm...

How 'bout you just do it?!

'Kay, sure!

It must be nice to be a complete idiot.

Hakase! It's about time to get out of bed!

There we go.

Morning.

Whatcha got there?

It's a fish that I'm grilling up for this morning's breakfast.

Fish? But I want a rice omelet!

But you had that for breakfast yesterday.

Besides, fish are packed with essential vitamins and minerals.

If you wanna grow up to be big and strong,

you need to have a balanced diet.

Uh?

Um. Excuse me, do you mind returning our breakfast?

Uh. No, this isn't what it looks like!

It's definitely not a robotic component or anything!

You see... It's a...

He's gone!

Come back you crazy cat!

Okay, bye...

Come to think of it,

what if the cat needs that food more than we do?

Ahh! Look out!

Hi, good to see ya, Mio! Selamat pagi !

Oh, hi, Yuuko. It's nice to see you too.

You think it's okay if I don't have my student ID?

'Cause I forgot it today.

Wait, did she miss that I greeted her in Malay?

I hope some upperclassman doesn't notice and call me out.

If one does, you can just say you're an upperclassman too,

and they'll have no idea without your ID.

That won't solve anything. I guarantee you.

That sounded like thunder, but the sky's so clear.

It might start pouring any second!

It'd suck if we got rained on outta nowhere!

It's raining wooden dolls.

Whoa! Are you all right?

How does that fall from the sky?

Yeah, that's super weird. I wonder where it even came from.

I'm just as confused as you are.

But don't worry, I bet something as crazy as this

only happens once in a girl's lifetime.

You know. It's like a freak accident. Right?

Yeah, totally.

That must mean I'm lucky.

I'm not lucky at all.

You doin' okay down there?

It happened again with a red cow this time.

What does it mean?

Y'know, maybe it's not about luck at all.

Sometimes, bad things happen, but it could be worse.

At least I wasn't hit by something

that's disgusting like raw meat. So, as long as that

doesn't happen, it's really not that ba--

It's raw salmon!

Good morning!

Oh, heyo!

Morning!

Good morning to you.

Oh, hey. Good morning, Mai.

Selamat pagi !

Good morning.

That looks interesting, whatcha got there?

This is a real estate magazine.

Wha--? Are you lookin' to buy a house?

Undecided.

My awesome, unique greeting gets ignored yet again.

Oh, well. I guess I have no choice

but to put this short-lived phrase to rest.

Yuuko.

Huh?

Selamat malam.

Silly Mai! It's "selamat pagi" ! Ha!

What language are they speaking?

It's, uh, time for homeroom. Take your seats.

Okay, when I arrived at school today,

I found this inside my shoe locker.

Now, did one of you kids put it in there?

Um, well, uh. If you did do it, that's okay.

I would just appreciate if you'd own up to it.

Who do you think could've pulled that kind of prank?

It's pretty bonkers, huh?

How am I supposed to know?

I bet you it was a student that has like,

a big crush on her or something.

But who would give their crush a Buddha statue?

Although, I can definitely understand the feeling

of wanting to give the person you like a gift,

so I can't really blame 'em.

Oh, that's right. It's because you have a crush

on that upperclassman Koujirou Sasahara.

Ah! Don't say it out loud!

Where am I? How did I get here?

Huh?

I have to get home.

Hakase is probably worried sick.

Plus, I left the grill on, and that's a hazard.

Oh, no. I can't get down!

Wait. My chopsticks are gone.

And I'm missing a slipper!

What do I do?

My hand's gone, too!

Ohh! Now it'll be obvious that I'm a robot!

Ready?

Thanks for the meal.

Hm? Hurry.

You gotta finish eating your food before fifth period starts.

Wait, all you've got left is one sausage.

This is all part of my plan to save the very best

of my lunch for the grand finale.

That way, I'm for sure gonna walk away

from my meal satisfied.

Hmm...

And now, without further ado,

it's gonna go down the hatch!

Oh!

It slipped through!

I got it!

It's done for!

Over my dead body!

One... two...

...three... four...

...five!

It's okay!

Uh! It's totally not!

Ha, ha! Aw, chill out Mio!

Haven't you ever heard of the five-second rule?

Haven't you heard of E. coli?! That is 100% gross!

Uh!

Tasty!

She... is such... a moron...

Aw...

Okay!

Good morning, students.

I hope you're having a wonderful day today.

Now that spring has sprung,

it's time to welcome a new school year.

But despite the change of seasons, the cold will stay.

Though I'm sure the cold will come to a head for me

before it does for you.

So please take care that you don't catch a cold.

After all,

it is my duty as principal to watch over you students.

But if you neglect to take my advice to heart,

and you do catch a cold, well... I'd say you might have

forgotten to respect your principal's principles.

Can I ask you something, Mio?

Make it quick.

We'll get in trouble if they catch us talking.

Do you think the principal knows that none of his jokes are funny

to anyone but himself? It's pretty obvious, right?

You'd think he would take the hint when no one laughs,

like ever, but it seems like

he's just in his own little world most of the time.

Hm. I never really thought about it.

But wait!

What if he does know he's not funny,

and he's just trying to teach the younger,

lazier generation the importance of persistence?

Possibly.

If that's the case, then the principal might actually be

some manipulative mastermind!

-- -- Mai?

What's her deal?

Don't tell me she's laughing at those terrible jokes!

Huh?!

I've never seen Mai crack up this much before!

She's totally busting her gut!

All right! Here's my chance!

Hey, Mai!

I can't do it! I want to tell my own lame joke,

but it'll be too embarrassing for me!

Yuuko?
