URUSEI YATSURA
Don't get so fidgety!
You're always looking all over the place!
Stop looking away from me!
More than anyone else, I...
...love you, love you, love you the best!
...love you, love you, love you!
...love you, love you, love you!
...love you, love you, love you!
On nights when the stars are twinkling...
I dream all about you.
I love you, but you act like you don't know.
I bet you're crazy for someone else by now!
Ah! Men all have so many loves.
Ah! You're spreading them all over...
and making me worry!
Don't get so fidgety!
You're always looking all over the place!
Stop looking away from me!
More than anyone else, I...
love you the best! Love you the best!
Shinobu's Cinderella Story
Subtitles: Arigon
M... Megane... Megane...
for mercy's sake... Huh?
Oh? Just what're you talking about? Huh?
I see. You're starving.
You want me to share MY lunch with YOU? Eh?
Ataru... the fact that you're suffering during lunchtime...
because you devoured your lunch during the morning...
and the fact that you must face the long afternoon classes...
painfully fighting your ravenous hunger...
it's all your own fault, and nobody else's.
Just what kind of an idiot eats his lunch before classes even begin?!
Yeah, but... No extenuating circumstances!
Begone!
Megane... You may be right... I may be a weakling...
But... But, you see... Megane...
Isn't that part of what makes one a human being?
At times, don't our own weaknesses conspire to destroy us?
Oh, who would save such a pitiful soul as I...
whom even the gods have abandoned?!
Oh, stow it, you moocher!
Even if I become superhuman, I will continue to strive...
to avoid facing extinction together with foolish mankind!
That, you see, is the perpetual theme of my life!
Only death awaits weaklings!
Ha! How ridiculous can they become?!
All that for lunch?
This is unbearable!
What the... Mendou, are you going home?
It's not like you to skip out like this.
How rude of you!
I've already arranged for an early dismissal today.
Mendou... Are you feeling sick or something?
No... No need to worry about that, Shinobu.
You see, the chairman of one of our family's major clients...
the Kobayakawa Group...
died unexpectedly last night.
Oh, yeah! I know!
It was on the morning news! I was watching it!
The Kobayakawa Group... aren't they the folks that deal...
in everything from real estate to electronics... you mean, THEM?
Mr. Keiji Kobayakawa, who was not just...
the Chairman, but was Kobayakawas' Commander-ln-Chief...
indulged in liquor all his life.
Last night, after a heroic bout of heavy drinking, he went to take a bath...
but he slipped and fell down...
hitting the back of his head too hard.
Apparently, he died instantly.
Impressive!
Already, there are vicious rumors going around about...
those who are seeking a share of an estate that's worth billions.
Young Master! We've come to escort you.
I see... I guess the rich really are different.
Darling, come on! Let's share!
Darling, come on! Let's share! Oh, thanks!
Ataru!
Damn you!
Well, then, everyone... If you'll excuse me...
An estate worth billions...
I can't even imagine what that might be like.
He's so cool!
He's not cool, he's a fool!
and just admitted to hospital is the action-comedy actor...
FuTamikoa Kazunoriunari, who is said to be suffering from acute loss of face...
Gee... Mom and Dad are at the hot springs by now...
They ought to act their age... instead, they take off for a weekend alone!
And I'm left home alone on a night like this...
Boy, this sucks!
Who is it...?! Who's there?!
Where are those 3 stooges now? They're nowhere to be found, sir!
What about what's-his-name? No go, sir... he's nowhere either.
He might be hiding around here somewhere. Look again!
I brought some hot coffee for you.
Thank you.
What's going on outside?
I'm not sure... but, at least the rain has stopped, it seems.
You don't want to ask me any questions?
Huh...?
Like, what did I do that got me in this situation...?
or who am I being chased by?
I'd think that you'd want to know.
It looks like you're alone in this house...
But, what would you do if I were a raving maniac?
You gave me shelter, and on top of that, some first-aid...
but nonetheless, I might attack you.
You don't seem to be a bad person.
I'm out of milk right now... Hope you don't mind.
"Thanks forthe wonderful coffee last night."
"I don't want to trouble you any more..."
"so I decided to leave before dawn. "
"I have a feeling that we'll meet again soon... "
"so, for now, I won't say good-bye. "
Detectives...?
I'm terribly sorry, Miss...
to disturb you when you might other- wise be enjoying the holidays.
But, let us get right to the point.. You know this man, yes?
No, I don't.
Oh? You don't know him? Now that is strange.
That shouldn't be the case.
Are you sure that you don't know him?
I don't know him.
I see.... You don't know him, do you?
I had thought that you knew him somehow.
His name is Kobayakawa Makoto...
Kobayakawa? You mean... the Kobayakawa Group's?
Well, if you don't mind, let me fill you in.
Right now, there are awful rumors going around...
about people who are seeking a share of the Kobayakawa estate.
You see, there are 4 siblings in the Kobayakawa Family.
The first son, Shigekazu
Kazunori, the second son.
The first daughter, Tamiko.
And Makoto, the third son.
Makoto, however...
became a Kobayakawa only 6 years ago, through adoption.
Obviously, he's not a blood- relative of the 3 siblings...
nor was he related to the late Mr. Kobayakawa.
And so, the rest is up to us to figure out...
"This is so ridiculous!"
"I won't buy any of it!"
"Shigekazukazu, are we going to just sit back and watch?!"
"Why should we hand over a quarter of the estate... "
"to a man who has nothing to do with our family?!"
"Relax!"
"We have 3 days until the will is read. "
"We don't know what'll happen to him in the meantime. Or, do WE?"
What?! No!
Well, it's only an alleged unconfirmed lead that we have...
but, the fact remains that Makoto is missing...
and, as police, we cannot leave him on the run.
Didn't he mention anything to you?
Such as, where he might be going, or...
Didn't I tell you that I've never met him?
O...Oh, that's right!
If you don't mind, please excuse me.
Yes, thank you very much for your cooperation.
Go!
Damn, it's steamin'!
Why, you're...
I bet that lnspector Torii is gonna ream me good!
WHAT?!
"I'm sorry sir, I've lost her?!" What're you, a moron?!
Dunce! I'm sorry, sir.
If apologies fixed everything, then there'd be no need for the police!
Find her, even if you have to run all over the city!
Get with it! Go! Now! RIGHT NOW! Yes, sir!
I see. The Detectives, eh?
So... why didn't you tell them about me?
They didn't look very trustworthy.
Besides... I had a feeling that there must be a reason...
why you aren't seeking help.
I think you did the right thing.
I bet those guys were sent by my siblings.
By the way... what's with this car... and those clothes?
Oh, these?
A credit card... my only weapon at this point in time.
It sure is ironic, don't you think?
Here I am, with my siblings after my head...
and all I have going for me is the crowded city, and lots of cash.
My real father once saved Mr. Kobayakawa's life.
That was the reason why he adopted me...
when I became alone in the world.
I tried very hard to make him like me.
I even learned to work, just to be a little more useful to him.
But, he passed away all of a sudden.
And before I knew it, I was totally isolated.
I'm sure that those 3 will kill me.
What are you planning to do now?
Who knows...?
There'll be a family conference at the Kobayakawa Residence tomorrow...
and the Will will be read.
If I can survive until then...
I may have a chance.
Like I said, we've had our coffees...
so, it looks like this time it's really good-bye.
Your life may soon be in danger too. I mean it.
I think we're a little late.
