Hana to Arisu Page #5

the flower house...

...she was really nice

It was Alice who brought you

to ballet, wasn't it

You shouldn't fight

Oh, thank you!

It's not a fight

You changed?

You've got to go on right now, eh?

What?!

One of the giraffes fell over!

The show must go on!

We have to fill in, eh?

What about Mr. Miya's 'Live-Forever'?

He's on now

He's almost done

Hana The Funky...

You're the closing act!

Hurry and get changed, eh?

'Live-Forever-Through-Countless-Ages'

'Like-Fish-In-Water-While-Sea... '

'... And-Cloud-And-Wind-Remain-

Never-Lacking-Food-Or-Shelter... '

'... Like-The-Children-Of-Shuringan-

And-Gurindai-Of-Paipo... '

'... Princesses-Ponpokopi-And-

Ponpokona-Live-Forever-Jack'

You're such a nuisance,

you can have them all

She's not here yet!

I'll have to fill in with

'Careless Messenger', eh?

A great lord once had a retainer

named Jibuemon...

...a man who forgot things

an awful lot, eh?

Can you tie my sash?

One day his lord gave him an

important message to deliver

'How do you do? '

'I am Sandayu Tanaka,

retainer of this household'

'I am Jibuemon Jibuta

I serve Lord Sugidaira'

Mr. Miya...

...are you in love...

...with Alice?

If you are...

...in love...

...with Alice...

...that means...

...you're really...

...in love

Alice is...

...really nice, so...

...be happy with her

'I've always been the kind of man

who forgets things'

'But if you pinch my ass real hard... '

'... it's amazing what I remember'

Are you still mad about the card?

No

That's not it

'Don't be shy! Go on! '

'Pinch my ass with those big pliers, eh? '

'Pinch that cheek as hard as you can! '

'Here goes, then! '

'Go! '

I'm sorry...

...I lied

Mr. Miya... you don't have amnesia

The fact is...

...that you and I...

...haven't fallen...

...in love

You're wrong

Don't jump to conclusions

Get off the stage!

I already know everything

About how my amnesia was a lie...

...and all the bad things you did

'Not yet! Keep going! '

'Now I remember! '

First, knock'em dead

'What is your lord's message? '

'I forgot to ask when I left the castle! '

'It's good to be thrifty... '

'... but when it goes too far

it's a problem for everyone'

'You turn into a miser

who can't count to six'

'You count five closing your fingers... '

'... and you hate to open them again'

'Some people are just greedy'

But it looks like the last performer

was so bad...

...that everyone left

I'm here

You want me to go on?

Once again

Take it up a stop

Ready?

OK, change it a little
