Gudetama: An Eggcellent Adventure (ぐでたま 〜母をたずねてどんくらい〜)

AN EGGCELLENT ADVENTURE

Great.

Ah!

Whoa.

Ugh.

Oh!

I suppose I'm just living life by going with the flow.

Huh?

Piyo!

Huh?

Piyo!

I'm born! I'm born!

Oh, a fertilized egg.

What was that?

Is someone there?

Here we go.

Jiggle, jiggle.

Mommy?

Jiggle.

-Are you my mommy? -Shake.

Shake.

Mommy!

-I'm not your mommy. -Huh?

You think I'm your mommy 'cause I'm the first person you saw?

Wow, subconscious imprinting.

That's right.

I did think you were my mommy. Yeah.

Your mommy looks more like that there.

Mommy?

Mommy! Mommy! Mommy!

Seriously?

Yeah, it's all coming back to me now.

Mommy's smiling, scritchy-scratchy face.

Actually, I was pointing to that one there.

Mommy! Mommy! Mommy!

Man, I'll give you one thing. You're persistent.

Yeah, it's all coming back to me now.

That blank look in her eyes.

I really miss her.

Mommy.

Wait. We're… We're siblings, right?

We came out of the same carton.

We'll go look for our mommy together.

Come on, newborn sibling.

The name's Gudetama, and I was never really born.

Of course you were born.

Gudetama, huh?

Well, if we're making introductions,

I'm Shakipiyo. Nice to meet you!

Ugh!

No need for introductions.

Hey! Wake up! Wake up! Rise and shine!

All right. Are you a rooster already?

Hey, hey, hey! You're going to want to hear this, so listen up.

Mexico is the number one egg-eating country in the world

at 372 eggs per person per year.

Then comes Japan at 338 and Russia at 306.

So much information in a tiny brain.

So many eggs were eaten, but not us. There must be a reason for that.

We've got to find Mommy!

Okay, good night.

Hey, hey, wake up!

Oh, boy.

Now I'm tired.

You and me both. Let's chill out for a while.

Think of it! The quest to find Mommy.

An epic adventure.
