NARUTO
We're on air from the studio of the Hidden Leaf, from the other side
of the Herz!
We're going to have a crunching good time today too!
Kyu kyu!
Aniplex Hour!
Uzumaki Naruto's Oo! Naruto Nippon!
Good evening! I'm Takeuchi Junko, the voice of the personality of this
show - Uzumaki Naruto!
And the ManPa for this month is...
Let's read one mail out here.
Academy Student from Oosaka, Nageuchi-san.
Thank you for your mail.
"I listen with great excitement every episode!"
Thank you!
"I really like Iruka-sensei, but I think he's not been appearing
much lately!"
Oh dear.
"So please get Iruka-sensei's voice, Seki Toshihiko-san to be the
ManPa! I'm looking forward to it!"
And so with that, because of Nageuchi-san and also a lot of other people...
Let's introduce him!
The teacher I'm indebted to!
The voice of Iruka-sensei - Seki Toshihiko-san datte ba yo!
IRUKA
ONI WA SOTO~~!!! FUKU WA UCHI~~!!!!
(Demons stay outside!! Happiness come inside!!)
Hey Naruto!! Why aren't you shouting along?!?
Come on, come on!!
BOTH
ONI WA SOTO!!!!! FUKU WA UCHI!!!!
IRUKA
Good evening, this is Seki Toshihiko, the voice of Iruka.
NARUTO
Thank you so much for your powerful entrance.
IRUKA
This is a pretty suitable entrance for Setsubun, right?
(Setsubun is the festival of bean-throwing based on the Lunar Calendar.
In 2004, it falls on February 3rd. This current episode played on February
2nd.)
NARUTO
Yes, it's very suitable.
It's already Setsubun, after all.
And really, what kind of a person is Seki-san?
IRUKA
Hmm. I'm generally like this.
NARUTO
I fell in love with Seki-san first in the studio... err wait...
I mean, I met up with Seki-san for the first time in the studio!
(she said: hajimete oai o shimashite first, which means 'to start to
have love for' when she actually meant to say hajimete oai shimashite,
which means 'meet up for the first time.' pun joys!)
I thought to myself, hey, what a gentle man this is!
But, as I got to know you better...
IRUKA
I got less and less gentle?
NARUTO
I was like... hmm... maybe he's not... /that/ gentlemanly after all.
I started to form lots of other opinions.
Well, let's introduce one mail here.
Academy Student from Gunma, Gamaoyabin no Kobun-san.
Thank you for your mail.
"This is sudden, but I'd like to ask a question.
Are there any bad acting or funny anecdotes etcetera in the studios
during AFUREKO? Stand up comedy, sit down comedy, whatever!
Please tell us about it!"
So... Seki-san, according to you... is there any event that stands out
to you in the NARUTO studio recordings?
IRUKA
Well... What do I say... in the studio, Jun-chan and me... Chie-chan
(Sakura), Sugiyama-kun (Sasuke) and Kazuhiko-san (Kakashi)...
My impression is...
What the... why the hell are these people so damned self-centred in
how they live their lives?!
Everybody like... has their own particular idiosyncrasy...
That's why...
You know, I think the only person who behaves most like me must be Nakamura
Chie-chan.
NARUTO
The /only/ person? Okay.
IRUKA
I think Chie-chan and I truly belong to the same planet.
You other three must definitely belong to some other planet!
NARUTO
Why do you say so??
IRUKA
You three don't belong to earth!
NARUTO
Why do you think Chie-chan behaves like you then?
Which part of her?
IRUKA
You see, Chie-chan, she takes note of how people feel normally, doesn't
she?
NARUTO
Wait a minute!
The way you're saying it... isn't it a bit rude to the three of us??
IRUKA
Oh. Okay, nevermind. Let's put Kazuhiko-san aside. He's our big senpai,
right?
NARUTO
Why??
IRUKA
Kazuhiko-san is okay.
His existence alone can change the people around him, so let's put him
to a side.
But as for Sugiyama-kun and Jun-chan... on an entirely different meaning
altogether...
Both of you have very... /strong/ characters.
If I had to be blunt.
NARUTO
I actually /do/ pay attention to how other people feel - just on very
strange topics, you know?
IRUKA
Issat so?
NARUTO
HUH?!
You! What's with that /tone/?!
IRUKA
You mean... you can say things like that?
NARUTO
Huh??
Why don't /you/ tell me /when/ exactly you pay attention to how other
people feel, Seki-san??
IRUKA
What? Me? Why you little bastard...
NARUTO
Yay! Bastard!
IRUKA
Don't say things like that!
NARUTO
When, come on, when?
IRUKA
Well, I... err... work hard secretly!
NARUTO
I won't understand if you do things secretly!
Please work hard in such a way that it's easy to understand!
IRUKA
I understand.
NARUTO
I see.
Anyway, with all of that, none of us understand anything about each
other but.
Let's listen to the message the previous ManPa - Kujira-san, the voice
of Orochimaru, left for you.
OROCHIMARU
Seki-san.
Wigs really suit you.
Please wear wigs during your everyday life too.
You look cool in them.
IRUKA
...don't make me laugh...
Oh, err, did you hear me just now?
NARUTO
Yes we did. Everything. Even the sound of your heart.
IRUKA
Kujira-san and myself, we often appear as guests in the plays our company
often stages.
We also do theatrical plays, you see...
So yeah, we often appear as guests together.
Kujira-san is really a great person.
NARUTO
I really had fun too.
IRUKA
She has a really huge heart.
Sometimes when I feel sad or anything, I'd go flying into the arms of
Kujira-san.
And she accepts me firmly too. Yup.
NARUTO
I also think Kujira-san is a very nice person, after going through one
ManPa with her.
She didn't say anything to turn the tables against me like Seki-san
did during the start of the program too.
IRUKA
No no! That's wrong! It's just the way I express my love!
NARUTO
Ah yes. But I'd prefer it if you expressed your love in easier language.
IRUKA
Aaan.
NARUTO
Don't say 'Aaan,' and look at the ground!!
You're doing a play currently, right?
IRUKA
Hmmm.
NARUTO
I'd love to ask more about it later, but anyway let's end this section
for today.
And with that, let's go WILD all the way to the end today as well!
Give your night to me tte ba yo!
IRUKA
You must have felt so lonely... so terrible...
That's what you get for not getting me to be the ManPa sooner!!

Music Care~
RECORDED SONG
Itsu no ma ni yara nigiyaka san!
(They're always bustling with liveliness)
Unchi tsuitara karouyaka san!
(When they're pooing they're so easy-going~~)
Denka funifuni Hina ponpon!
(Denka's all squishy and Hina's like a pompom~~)
Konya mo hajikero daidetsu!
(Let's bounce around tonight all the way too~~)
Asa ni wa shizuka ni neteru kara!
(Since by morning they'll be quietly sleeping away~~)
Kyaaa!!
NARUTO
I thought it may be good for me to listen to the whole thing once in
a while.
IRUKA
Wha... what the... ?!
NARUTO
You see, I have two cats - Denka and Hina.
So I made a song to show my Denka and Hina how much I love them after
just starting to learn the guitar for two months.
IRUKA
So it's a song meant for Denka and Hina?
NARUTO
That's right!
IRUKA
That means it's not for humans?
I see.
You used Neko-language (cat language) for this song?
NARUTO
I did not.
I used Nihongo (Japanese).
IRUKA
So... what did Denka and Hina do in return after hearing this song?
NARUTO
They ran away.
IRUKA
I thought so.
NARUTO
The moment I started strumming the guitar they ran away like they had
a rocket attached on their backs.
IRUKA
But you really have a very strong character.
NARUTO
What??
IRUKA
Your very nature is really charming in many ways.
That's how you settle things, eh?
NARUTO
Wait a minute... why do I feel like I'm being kicked around--
IRUKA
You know, if your cats were to really take that song seriously, they'd
be angry!
But when it finally ended you just think... ah... Jun-chan's so cute!
So... yeah, you have something like that in you.
NARUTO
Thank you.
IRUKA
I think it's very good.
NARUTO
How do I say this... his words are kind and gentle but... everybody,
you can't see but...
His eyes are really scary.
IRUKA
No!!
So you see, during the opening we were talking about how kind and gentle
Kujira-san is, no?
Maybe I should try to be more gentle from the Second Stage season onwards?
NARUTO
But you're just forcing yourself to be gentle like that!
IRUKA
No! No!
I'm just bad at expressing myself!
NARUTO
But his eyes are so scary.
IRUKA
Wha-...?! Where? How??
NARUTO
I think Seki-san should become more gentle by the time we reach his
fourth ManPa.
IRUKA
My eyes...
Whaa??
NARUTO
Let's start with this section!
This section, as you all know, we're depending on all you listeners
for your caring help while we make an Ouenka (supporters') song for
this program.
It's supposed to be a super three-way mission based on friendship, hard
work and victory.
So that means I just can't do it alone.
By the way, Seki-san, do you listen to songs? Music?
Oh my, look at the way his eyes just light up.
Seki-san's eyes have become ero-me (erotic-eyes).
IRUKA
These are gentle-eyes!
NARUTO
I get it. Okay.
I acknowledge it.
Very gentle.
I like Seki-san! Whee!
Even if you don't like me.
IRUKA
Nothing of that sort!
In certain ways I respect you!
NARUTO
In /certain/ ways?
IRUKA
We really can't get along well...
NARUTO
Seki-san is really being very frank.
IRUKA
Anyway, what was that question again?
NARUTO
Yes. Songs! Do you have songs you like? Music? Lyrics?
IRUKA
I have one that I do like...
That person who's always... singing sad songs.
Sad lyrics, and stuff...
When I was doinga play last year for Akingurai... in October?
I was listening to Onizuka Chuuko-san all the time then.
NARUTO
Is it that famous song, that even I know about...
*sings and hums*
... something like that?
IRUKA
Don't make me laugh... who the heck is that?
NARUTO
I really did sing seriously just now!
IRUKA
You did?
I've never heard anything like what you sang on any program ever before!
NARUTO
It /IS/ in the show! *hums again*
IRUKA
Oh please stop already.
Anyway, I kept listening to those songs and think that they're very
good.
Then I bought lots of DVDs and live-events...
NARUTO
You even bought the DVDs?
IRUKA
Well... after I watched it I thought I really like it so...
NARUTO
You mean the lyrics? Or the song?
Which one leaves the most impression on you?
IRUKA
In her case it would be... both... I think?
She really has this strong sense of self...
NARUTO
That's right.
IRUKA
She doesn't... like... lift herself up on strange gimmicks...
I think she really resembles Takeuchi Junko on this aspect.
In that sense, yes.
NARUTO
Really?
I'm really happy about what you said just now.
IRUKA
I mean it.
I think you're, well, pretty great.
NARUTO
Right. Yes. Sorry.
It feels a bit...
IRUKA
I think that I'm like that too, you see!
That's true about me too.
NARUTO
Seki-san you really...
IRUKA
Know how to curry favour?
NARUTO
... DON'T know how to curry favour.
IRUKA
What do you /mean/?
NARUTO
The way you chose your words were really kind... well, but...
IRUKA
Is that so.
Oh, that's great! Look, you're starting to praise me more and more!
NARUTO
Ooh! This is... this is a praise-me-praise-me corner?!?
And so with that... do you play instruments anyway?
IRUKA
And with that?
NARUTO
We have to speed up. We only have 20 minutes.
Do you play instruments?
IRUKA
I... can't.
NARUTO
Really.
Toshi-kun, don't you see a flute there?
IRUKA
Oh, really!
What's this?
It's a recorder!
Shall I play something on it?
NARUTO
Play, play!
IRUKA
... Really?
*plays a happy marching tune*
NARUTO
Our late night show has become very wholesome.
IRUKA
Yes.
I was trying to play that Sorashido March just now.
NARUTO
How sweet...
IRUKA
I did something like a... flute playing big brother before.
NARUTO
SOMETHING like that?
You /did/ do someone like that, right?
Don't say /something/ like that if that's the case!
IRUKA
It was a long time ago.
NARUTO
Well at this rate...
Then I'll also...
My guitar's here too so...
IRUKA
Oh! Great!
NARUTO
I have my guitar here too so...
IRUKA
You do this every week to the guest, I suppose?
NARUTO
No... it's been a long time since I played the guitar on the radio to
everybody.
The ManPa always takes the guitar from me.
IRUKA
That means I'm so super fortunate today?
It's like Utada Hikaru! She played a guitar live too, you know?
Wow! Cool!
NARUTO
Please don't look away when saying all that...
We're going to have an ensemble.
IRUKA
Huh?
NARUTO
You know, an ensemble?
Play together?
IRUKA
Assemble?
NARUTO
ENSEMBLE.
IRUKA
I have to use this?
NARUTO
Let's just have fun playing it.
IRUKA
But I... what should I do in an ensemble?
NARUTO
Just play.
IRUKA
Okay, I'll beat the table.
NARUTO
No, you play the flute.
IRUKA
The flute--
NARUTO
The flute!
IRUKA
But you can't even play the guitar properly! What's going on??
NARUTO
Speak for yourself!!
IRUKA
Yes.
NARUTO
Let's go.
I don't know what kind of tune will come out, though.
Ready, go!
BOTH
*plays guitar + recorder*
IRUKA
Oh wow. What a nice tune we managed to play together!
NARUTO
Really nice!
The power of an ensemble is really cool!
I wonder if we'll make it through the radio waves...
IRUKA
Damned liar!
But this section... well, Jun-chan you mentioned it in the resting room
just now?
Why you chose a guitar for the instrument.
Because you can sing while strumming it.
NARUTO
That's right.
IRUKA
And why not a recorder?
Because you can't sing when playing it.
NARUTO
I thought about using a harmonica too.
IRUKA
Ah, a harmonica would be good.
NARUTO
But a harmonica might make it hard to sing too...
So I thought, maybe a violin or a guitar!
IRUKA
As for me... ah, but a guitar is most suitable for Jun-chan after all.
I was thinking maybe an Ukulele would be good...
NARUTO
I did think of trying an Ukulele.
But they say that an Ukulele has four strings and is more difficult!
IRUKA
Ah, on the contrary it may be so.
NARUTO
So I stopped.
IRUKA
I see I see.
NARUTO
So I got a guitar instead.
IRUKA
I see.
Guitar chords are easier to remember, maybe?
NARUTO
Although in actuality, I can only strum about four? Three chords?
And anyway, in this section, we want to make a song for this program.
I've gotten a lot of phrases from the ManPa up till now.
We've got everything from shitty phrases to super good phrases...
IRUKA
Yes, I see it. They're all written here?
NARUTO
What should I do?
IRUKA
You really got some shitty ones in here.
NARUTO
And so.
It's been more than three months.
I think it's about time we actually /did/ something about it.
So, please Seki-san, think of a super good phrase for us now!
IRUKA
Really?! My gosh, you're really making this song with /these/?!
NARUTO
Yes, I have to...
What should I do...
IRUKA
And Jun-chan, you'll be singing it, right?
NARUTO
Yes...
IRUKA
Will it come out in a CD or something?
NARUTO
Well... maybe I'll self publish it?
IRUKA
I see...
NARUTO
But really.
I can't sing it all by myself, having to play and sing all the time?
IRUKA
Play and sing... yeah.
NARUTO
I don't know what'll happen after I start singing and stuff too...
IRUKA
So you want some guest appearances... ?
NARUTO
Yes.
Timing! Timing!
IRUKA
Yes, yes.
So a phrase you want from me.
NARUTO
Yes.
IRUKA
You know, lately I've not been able to sleep well.
NARUTO
Okay.
IRUKA
So I have some lyrics I've thought up of based on that.
Okay?
NARUTO
Okay.
IRUKA
This is a serious section, right?
NARUTO
Very serious.
IRUKA
Byakuya o... Bya... do you know what what byakuya is?
NARUTO
Midnight sun.
IRUKA
They have this in a lot of other songs - the night that never comes.
Byakuya o tabishite bonyari to
(As I space out and travel through the midnight sun)
Kimi o motomete byakuya baka
(I search for thee, I am the Byakuya Baka)
NARUTO
Why... at the end... byakuya baka...
I thought at first, wow, what a perfect phrase!
And as I went, 'Yes, this is what I want!'...
IRUKA
Well, it fits Naruto.
NARUTO
...
Byakuya o tabishite bonyari to...
Kimi o motomete byakuya baka...
That final 'byakuya baka' at the end seems really hard to pronounce
properly.
IRUKA
But this is really great Japanese.
Byakuya Baka.
It's got such a nostalgic feel to it.
NARUTO
Ah... you really said it.
Okay, this is in.
We'll definitely put this phrase somewhere inside.
IRUKA
You mean it's definite?
NARUTO
Yes, definite.
IRUKA
Oh. I see.
NARUTO
Well, Toshihiko-san will join in with his flute...
IRUKA
Our ensemble just now... will it be in too?
As the song?
NARUTO
I don't remember it anymore!
IRUKA
I see.
NARUTO
If it goes in, it goes in.
Though I've already forgotten it.
Oh man, what's going to become of this section!?
Listeners, please absolute care for me.
I'm depending on all of you.
IRUKA
So that's why it's called Music Care?
NARUTO
Yes.
IRUKA
A section that 'cares' for you?
NARUTO
Yes, a section that cares for me.
It's a section especially for me.
IRUKA
So that's what it's about!
NARUTO
And so, not just your requests, any recording, music or MD you want
to send, they're all accepted!
Send them all in to the Music Care section tte ba yo!!
