But... What to do?

Could I... Have it back?

It's really precious to me.

Your ancestor killed my Daddy!

My Daddy wasn't a mischievous kappa!

He was an expert at catching fish, kind and... An admirable kappa!

Daddy only asked if they could refrain from turning Ryuujin swamp into a paddy field because that was our home, but...

Your ancestor suddenly drew out his sword and killed Daddy!

The Daddy who I really loved!

Is that true?

It's too much of a coincidence.

Is this for real?

Shimizu-san, what Coo-chan just said, do you think it's true?

Well, that... It's something that happened in the Edo period, so...

Ah yes, that's true...

Coo...

In that case, Coo-chan has the ability to see the past? You could say he has some kind of mysterious power...

Don't cry.

Stop it!

What?! What's this?!

Hey, what's going on in the studio?!

Hey, this isn't good!

What's happening?

I can't see what's going on like this!

Start the adverts!

Y-Yes!

The adverts have started.

Coo-chan, calm down... Hand that arm over to...

Hey, what are you guys doing?

Go and save him!

Damn it!

It's alright. Don't be scared...

We won't do anything...

Get on!

Wait!

It... It got away!

Coo!

Erm, hold on! We're on air!

What? A kappa and a dog?

Hey! Catch that!

Where do you want to go?

Somewhere... A quiet place with no humans...

Okay!

Hey, that's Coo-chan!

What is this place?!

It's full of humans and cars everywhere!

What? An arm?!

They're so noisy!

Wow! That was close!

This is such a dangerous place!

Hey, Coo-chan!

Wait up!

What?

Hey! Coo-chan!

Ossan, aren't you tired?

You've run enough!

No. Not yet!

It feels good to be able to run every now and then.

Hey, isn't that a kappa?!

It's Coo-chan!

Oh, Coo-chan!

It's Coo-chan!

Coo-chan!

Don't come after us!

Let's go after it!

No way! Is that Coo-chan?

Coo-chan! Wait!

Oh crap!

Ossan!

Are you alright?

I'm sorry, I screwed up... I'm afraid you have to go on your own from here...

What?! No! Please get up!

It hurts... Sh*t!

It's my fault! It's my fault!

I wonder if he's still alive...

Would it have been better if I'd stayed and got beaten?

If I had, he'd have a way to get rid of his frustrations...

Here, here, here, here, and up!

...And become like that time again...

Ossan! Ossan!

Did it die?

So cruel!

Quick! Take a photo! A photo!

Eugh! Looks gross!

Hey, he's upset.

He's got some weird power, doesn't he?

How pitiful...

Hey! It's meat! Meat!

Let's eat it before the guts rot away!

Let's eat! It's feeding time!

Let's eat that little one too!

What was that?!

Coo-chan! It's dangerous!

Coo-chan!

Get down!

Hey, where's the police?

Call the police!

Coo-chan!

Coo-chan!

Come down, Coo-chan!

Watch out!

He's climbing up!

Coo-chan!

Come down!

Yeah! That kappa! Coo-chan!

Coo-chan's climbing the tower!

Is Ossan dead?

Why...

Hey, over there!

Coo-chan!

Where?

Over there!

Coo!

There're stairs inside.

Let's get closer.

Can we get to the steel frame from the stairs?

Sure, you can use the gateways in between.

Excuse me, but we're the family with Coo.

Daddy, there aren't any quiet places around here where there aren't any humans...

This is like... A nest of humans.

There are no kappas anywhere anymore...

They were all killed by humans...

It's completely dry...

I'm out of energy...

Daddy, what should I do?

I'm tired...

I want to go where Daddy is...

If I fall from here, I can get there, right?

Daddy, save me!

Daddy! Daddy! Daddy!

Coo! Stay still!

We're coming to save you!

Put the rope over there!

Go on. Hurry!

The keys! Quick!

Ah, yes!

Coo! Answer me, please!

What's that cloud?

It's freaky!

Oh, no!

What is it?

I've got it, Daddy...

You're saying that I shouldn't go there yet, right?

Coo!

Stay there!

I'll never do anything that will upset Coo! So please! Don't run!

Hold on tight. Here.

Ossan wanted to save Coo, didn't he?

He did what we couldn't do.

Numerous people have claimed that they saw a dragon, however, nothing was seen on the photos or the video.

The relationship between the dragon and Coo-chan remains a mystery,

Banner reads:
"The kappa's a dangerous monster! Get rid of it! A mysterious power threatens our peaceful lives. Isolate it immediately!".

but the demands for a proper investigation into the powers that Coo-chan holds has become stronger.

...And then you twist as you swipe the opponent's leg out from under them.

Like this?

I see. Okay! One more time!

Sure.

Coo, it's ready.

Ah, this is perfect.

That looks good.

Thank you for such a fine piece of work.

It's nothing. Don't thank me for that.

Hi-chan wants one too!

I thought you'd say that.

Here. That piece of glass you got from Coo-chan the other day... I mean, the stone, put it in here.

Hitomi! Stop stuffing things down there!

Yes.

What're you two doing?

Yay! Brother's the only one who's being left out!

Yay!

Did you want something similar, Kouichi?

Not really.

Oh! He wants one too!

Shut up! You! Hey, wait there!

Brother says...

By the way, your dad said...

Here, give that to me!

There's no point in hiding anymore, so for our next holiday, we'll be visiting a place with a clean river.

Really! Yay!

Hey, so where are we going?

It's not being decided yet.

Are we taking lunch with us?

Yes, we are.

Can I catch fish there?

Of course!

Most likely the people from the TV station will come too, but dad said it doesn't matter.

You must be looking forward to it.

Right now everyone wants to see Coo-chan, but after a while, they'll get used to him.

And then you'll be able to live like you used to.

Yeah.

I wanted to see the dragon too.

But I was in such a situation, I didn't even realize it was there.

Why don't you ask Coo-chan?

I did ask if he could call it again,

but he said that he didn't call it, that his dad did.

"Yeah, right," you'd think, right?

They're amazing, aren't they? Coo-chan and his father...

Huh? I guess so...

Hey! Lovey-dovey, aren't you, Kou-chan?

Is this a friends-only-club?

No! It's not like that!

Hey, the gloomy Miss-Unlucky and the Kappa brother!

You two suit each other!

Hey, Kou-chan, isn't that kappa dangerous what with all those supernatural powers?!

Crying and holding that mummified arm!

Watching that scene freaked me out!

That's 'cos it was his murdered dad's! It can't be helped!

How do you know? Did you check their DNA?

Hear! Hear!

Coo can tell!

What?

What're you talking about?

Have you turned crazy because of the kappa bug?

What do you mean by "kappa bug"?

My dad was saying that a kappa's similar to an alien, so it probably carries some strange diseases!

Beware!

Kappa bug!

Kappa bug! Kappa bug! Kappa bug!

Kappa bug! Kappa!"

Stop it!

Oh! Miss Unluckys upset!

What's up? Having your period?

I heard your dad left your family after having an affair.

What? What's that got to do with anything?!

Then it turns out... what was it? Your mom was having one too!

Shut up, idiot! Stop it!

Wow! I can see your panties!
