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 who's on the program together with me is this person, whom you must already know...
The person who I may really respect, huh?
This sensei!
Iruka-sensei's voice, Seki Toshihiko-san!

IRUKA
*blows the recorder completely off tune*
Ah, darn, it doesn't work.
Yes. I'm Seki Toshihiko, the voice of Iruka.

NARUTO
That was so cute, sensei.
It's over already?
Thanks for that sweet song.

IRUKA
I'm not too well today.

NARUTO
Not too well?
Well, today, today!
It's your last round today so are you okay doing this feeling not so well?

IRUKA
I'm okay.

NARUTO
You're okay.
You know, today's the last time for you already, right?
I have just this one mail I must clear before we finish the show.
The Wig!
We received a lot of mail regarding this.
"Seki-san, what does it mean that you look good with wigs? What does it mean? Are you... are you bald... ?"
So many people asked...

IRUKA
Oh, it's because of Kujira-san's comment?

NARUTO
Yes that's right.

IRUKA
Well, I'm quite suitable for wigs because... I guess... the shape of my head...
Maybe the shape is good for wigs?

NARUTO
Why?

IRUKA
You see... what's important for wig-wearing is that...
It has a certain shape it goes well with so, really...
There are some people who can put it on easily and some who can't.
If you had to mess up your original head to put it on, then you'd have to try to fix it back later... and... yeah, it doesn't work.

NARUTO
You only wore wigs for your stage plays at first?

IRUKA
Yes.
I'm wearing a wig now too.
Shall I take it off?

NARUTO
Wha.. what?! No, don't take it off!
It's not like you're bald or anything...
You have a small face, right?

IRUKA
You...

NARUTO
Clean and well-shaven.

IRUKA
No, nothing of that sort. I have a large face.

NARUTO
What?!
It's not!

IRUKA
Jun-chan is the one who has a small face!

NARUTO
I have a small body too.

IRUKA
No no, that's not how it goes...

NARUTO
No! Seki-san really has a small face!
That's why they say you look good in wigs.
I wonder if everybody actually get what we're saying?

IRUKA
It's got a certain charm here...

NARUTO
And anyway we'll talk about wigs next time too.

IRUKA
Ah, you see, a lot of people don't know that I also do period dramas on stage.
A wig? What? You mean like Tomoni-san?
A lot of people said that to me.
But that's not it.

NARUTO
Of course not. It was just for the play.
You're going to act in a stage play again too, right?

IRUKA
Yes.

NARUTO
We'll hear about it next time.
Next time? Sheesh, but today's the last time!
Then, let's introduce some Nindou from everybody today!

IRUKA
Okay!

NARUTO
From me first!
Academy Student from Chiba, Piitan Burazzu-san's Nindou!
"When I wake up at 6:30AM every morning, I must tell my younger brother a lie!
This is Ore no Nindou Datte ba yo!"
Why? Why?

IRUKA
What does he mean, tell a lie?

NARUTO
Of course he means...
"Hey, it's nine o'clock already! Wake up!!"
Something like that?

IRUKA
Is... is she an onee-san?

NARUTO
It's a boy.

IRUKA
A boy but he must lie to his younger brother?

NARUTO
Yes.
"Oh look, you got a lot of chocolates!"
Or something like that?

IRUKA
That's so cute.

NARUTO
It is it is.
I wonder how old is this younger brother.
If he's just less than a year younger won't they get into a fight?

IRUKA
That's right...

NARUTO
But it's still so cute.

IRUKA
Just like an onee-chan whom the young ones rely on!

NARUTO
Still cute.
I think the younger brother's reaction would be cute too.
Then let's have one more.

IRUKA
Academy Student from Nara, Shikacchi-san's Nindou!
"I definitely will eat the tail of the fried prawn!!
This is Ore no Nindou Datte ba yo!"

NARUTO
He does.

IRUKA
If I eat tails of seafood, I usually get a stomachache.
It bloats and stuff, yeah.

NARUTO
Really?

IRUKA
Don't you get it too?

NARUTO
We don't usually eat fried prawns in my house...

IRUKA
I see.

NARUTO
But it means that the tail of the prawn is edible too?

IRUKA
It... doesn't really go that way for me.
It doesn't sound all that healthy either!
If I eat fried prawns I usually give the tail to my cat.

NARUTO
Are you /sure/ you should do that?

IRUKA
Hm... they do say that you can't give such things to cat from since a long time ago, right?

NARUTO
I've never heard about that, though.

IRUKA
But there are so many things that they say you shouldn't give cats.

NARUTO
Yes! So many!
Like octopus, pork...

IRUKA
Onions!

NARUTO
Onions too!
Doesn't that mean that you shouldn't give prawn tails??

IRUKA
You may be right!

NARUTO
Oh dear, you did something so bad.

IRUKA
Ah, they say you shouldn't give them oily stuff.

NARUTO
No no, you can't!
They'll turn into monster cats!

IRUKA
And prawn tails have oil...
Oh no!
I did something terrible!
Oh no!!

NARUTO
And with that oh no... let's go WILD all the way to the end today as well!
Give your night to me tte ba yo!

IRUKA
What are you doing??!
We're in the middle of a broadcast!!

KONOHAMARU
Naruto no nii-chan was lousy not just in his studies...
In his Bunshin no Jutsu as well?

IRUKA
He failed the graduation examination three times because of that.

KONOHAMARU
Heheh... this could be a good chance for me to find nii-chan's weakness!
So, so... tell me more, please?
What else happened?

IRUKA
Hm? Let's see...

Radio Drama NARUTO - Chapter Two
It's A Lesson on Survival!

IRUKA
So, if you use this formula here, you'll be able to solve the question easily.
This'll come out in the test, got that?

NARUTO
So, so! I'll just remember that formula!
If I do that I won't get zero points anymore, right?

IRUKA
Stupid thing.
I didn't say it for that purpose.

NARUTO
You didn't have to use that tone of voice...
You didn't have to use that tone of voice...

IRUKA
All right.
The next question...
Sasuke! Try to solve it.

SASUKE
x equals 339.

IRUKA
Yes. Correct!

SAKURA
Sasuke-kun is cool today too!

NARUTO
Sakura-chan's eyes are becoming hearts...
I won't lose...
All right, shall I use /that/ method?

IRUKA
Then the next question...
Sakura.

SAKURA
10,000,000 over 317.

IRUKA
Correct!

SAKURA
Yeah!

INNER SAKURA
Sha-nyarou!

NARUTO
Aah!!
Damn! Damn!!
I KNEW the answer to THAT one. I wonder WHY Iruka-sensei DIDN'T call ME to answer??

IRUKA
Oh? Naruto? You knew the answer to that one?

NARUTO
Absolutely did!
I can do things when I need to do 'em too!
That was great!
I wonder if Sakura-chan sees me in a new light now?

IRUKA
Is that so...
Naruto?
Well, since this is such a rare occasion,
would you like to try the next question?

NARUTO
Eh? That-That's all right...

IRUKA
A left the house 15 minutes earlier but B caught up with A.
If A travelled at a speed of 100 metres per minute and B at a speed of 300 metres per minute, how much time did it take for B to catch up with A?

NARUTO
Eh... well, that's...
Err...

IRUKA
What's wrong?
You can do things when you need to do 'em too, right?

NARUTO
Oh no... if this goes on I'll become so uncool!

HINATA
Naruto-kun...
The answer is... 7 minutes 30 seconds later...

NARUTO
Really?
Lucky!
I don't know what the heck but thank you, Hinata!

IRUKA
Hey! Answer the question, Naruto!

NARUTO
Huh-huh!
The answer is 7 minutes and 30 seconds later!

IRUKA
What did you say...

NARUTO
What?
His reaction is different from expected...
Did Hinata lie to me?!

IRUKA
Correct!

NARUTO
What the heck...
You really made me sweat there.

IRUKA
Then.
/How/ did that happen?

NARUTO
Eh? Well... that's...
Err...

HINATA
Naruto-kun... do your best!

NARUTO
Err...
It's because B used hard work and determination to rush all the way forward!!

IRUKA
I thought as much.
Naruto, stand at the back until I release you.

NARUTO
Why!?

IRUKA
And Hinata!
If you're really thinking for Naruto then don't tell him the answer!

HINATA
Sorry...

IRUKA
Listen up, all of you!
What would you do if this was a real test?
You're not going to get away with a "I can't calculate the answer"!
... Where are you looking, Shikamaru?!

SHIKAMARU
The clouds are so good... so free...

IRUKA
I have to do something to make this guy get serious...
All right, Shikamaru.
Come out to the board to solve this problem.

SHIKAMARU
... That's so troublesome...

IRUKA
And! Since teamwork is important for ninjas, until Shikamaru solves the problem, this lesson will not end - it's part of group responsiblity!

CHOUJI
Do I have to miss my lunch because of Shikamaru?
I'll get angry!

NARUTO
Yeah!!
You, hurry up and get out there and do it!

SHIKAMARU
Dammit... looks like I've no choice...

SAKURA
Shikamaru stood up!
That's really rare.

SHIKAMARU
Ninpou... Kagemane no Jutsu!

IRUKA
My body...
That boy... he caught my shadow!

SHIKAMARU
If you join the diagonal lines A and B together...
The answer is 40 centimetres square.
I'm done, sensei.

NARUTO
Oh wow...
Iruka-sensei solved the problem by himself!
So strange!

IRUKA
... he thinks it's too troublesome to even come out to the front?!
I had too much openings!
You really can't let your guard down against this guy!

SHIKAMARU
Well?
Did I get it right?

IRUKA
Shikamaru...

SHIKAMARU
I mean, of course I'd get a question like this right.
You don't have to praise me.

IRUKA
Who's praising you, you stupid thing?!
You, stand at the back too!!

NARUTO
Lousy!! You have to stand too!

SHIKAMARU
You! Speak for yourself!

CHOUJI
That's why, you should have just done it properly from the start.

SHIKAMARU
Shut up, Chouji!

KIBA
Yeah!
And what have you been munching on since just now?
It's so damned oily! I can't take it anymore!

NARUTO
Yeah!
I'm getting sick just looking at you!
Ugh!

CHOUJI
Oh, this flavour's delicious too!

NARUTO
Hey! Listen to me!!
Now I'll have to use my whole strength to stop you...

CHOUJI
AAH! What're you doing! That's mine!

NARUTO
Just let go already!
HEY!!

KIBA
Oops. This is really bad.

SHIKAMARU
I don't know anything.

IRUKA
All of you...

NARUTO
I... Iruka-sensei?
We didn't do it on purpose...

CHOUJI
Ah... what a pity...
I wonder if it still can be eaten...

IRUKA
We're in the middle of a lesson, flaming idiots!!
Change in schedule!
We're doing a revision test on Henge no Jutsu.
EVERYBODY LINE UP!!!

COMMERCIAL

R.O.D. The TV, DVD.
Hot off the press from Aniplex!

NARUTO
Yes, this is sudden, but...
Question Corner for Seki-san!
Woah!

IRUKA
Okay okay.

NARUTO
When we asked people to tell us more about Seki-san, we received a lot of mail from everybody regarding it!

IRUKA
Bring it on!!

NARUTO
Bring it on!
Then, let's go!
Academy Student Rio-san.
Thank you for your mail.

IRUKA
Thank you for your mail.

NARUTO
"Both of you talked about your characteristics last week.
I have an image of Seki-san in that his ecchi-ness multiples in his conversations when he has a drop too much."
Is that true?

IRUKA
No, of course no!
That's only, that's only because I wanted to... let the people around me... have a bit more fun?
Fanservice, I suppose?
But of course, some people will think, "Ah, so /that's/ really what he's like"!
I guess it's like killing two birds with one stone.
You're laughing now.

NARUTO
My goodness.
I didn't think you could turn something like this into your favour!

IRUKA
But it's really true.
It's good to talk ecchi.
If you're someone who wants to achieve the true essence of human nature, then you must talk ecchi.
If you do that, it helps in your interpersonal relationships...

NARUTO
I see.
That's true...

IRUKA
But... if it becomes something like sexual harassment, then that's not too good.

NARUTO
So, Seki-san may talk about ecchi a lot, but he doesn't do ecchi, really.

IRUKA
Don't make me laugh. Who the hell is that?

NARUTO
One more mail!

IRUKA
Okay, here we have...
Academy Student from Sagamiharashi, Kasuka Rankuru-san?
"I'm completely in love with Iruka-sensei while listening to the radio and watching NARUTO anime.
I have a request.
What kind of girls do the both of you think Iruka-sensei would like?
Please tell me."
She says it's... okay for Seki-san to reply...

NARUTO
Then let's treat this as... what kind of girls Seki-san thinks Iruka-sensei would like?

IRUKA
Wha-what?? Are you sure you can take my word for it?

NARUTO
That's okay!

IRUKA
Is that so?
If it was me... well...
Iruka-sensei... if I had to think about someone he could be in love with...
Then I'd say it'd be... someone who's very... instructor-like?
Someone who's like... organised?
That's the kind of girl I think he'd be going out with.
Someone who really gives off teacher-vibes.
Of course Iruka-sensei is something like that too, but I think the other party must be a brisk and busy girl as well.

NARUTO
Someone who's very independant?

IRUKA
If I had to give it a form...
Probably someone like Oobai Shimoto-san?
Something like that.

NARUTO
Then, by the way, what are the kind of girls you like, Seki-san?

IRUKA
Umhm?

NARUTO
Umhm?

IRUKA
Ehheh?

NARUTO
Ehheh?

IRUKA
Wha... What should I say?

NARUTO
Well, I don't know, just reply honestly?
Seki-san's...

IRUKA
Uwehhuh?

NARUTO
Uwehhuh?

IRUKA
That's...

NARUTO
That's that's that's?

IRUKA
But that's... so sudden!

NARUTO
That's because I asked it all of a sudden.

IRUKA
We didn't prepare for this beforehand!
I...

NARUTO
I just thought I'd ask.

IRUKA
I think... I would prefer someone calm and quiet.

NARUTO
I see. Not someone like me, right?

IRUKA
No no, you know, you said it and I was thinking of accepting it but...
I think it's a bit rude for me to do that.

NARUTO
Yes it is. It's rude for you to say it that way.
You like someone calm and quiet.

IRUKA
That's right.

NARUTO
Someone like Yamato Nadeshiko?
(yamato nadeshiko is a name given to someone who is the personification of the perfect wife)

IRUKA
I guess so.

NARUTO
A girl who really looks good in kimonos?
Who has a sexy neck?

IRUKA
Aah, there you said it!

NARUTO
Now we're getting into the more lewd parts.
A girl who appears and disappears?

IRUKA
I just like someone who has a strong heart.

NARUTO
I see.
Speaking of Yamato Nadeshiko, she has a strong heart and a soft chest.

IRUKA
What the hell are you drawing on that paper?!

NARUTO
This is what she looks like.

IRUKA
What is that?!
Is that a real thing??

NARUTO
This is what she looks like.
And we end this section still not understanding anything about Seki-san.
Anyway we were talking about your stage play just now.
You're having a play this coming May, right?

IRUKA
That's right.
I had a play with Touda Keiko-san and various other people before.
I guest-starred there.
We're going to do a period drama stage play again this time.

NARUTO
Wig? Wig?

IRUKA
Yes. I think I'll be wearing a wig this time too.
This time we also have Koyama Mami-san as guest, of course I will be guest starring as well, and Kujira-san too.
It's going to be from May 15th to May 23rd, the small hall 3 in Tokyo Theatre Hall.
The pre-tickets go on sale from March 15th so please check out the Theatre Hall.
The number of the hall is 0484422187.
Tickets on sale from March 15th.

NARUTO
Yes.
I'll go watch it too.

IRUKA
Oh, pleased to be performing then!

NARUTO
We've come to the end of O-! NARUTO Nippon in such a short while.
We're collecting feedback from you all for the program!
Send your questions to the cast, and of course, Henge no Jutsu suggestions, your Nindou, Music Care, etc etc!
Those whose mail gets read out will get something good!
Where should your missives all go to?
Seki-san, please!

IRUKA
Postcards should go to:
PO 552-8501
Radio Oosaka
O-! Naruto Nippon
Email should be in small letters:
naruto@obc1314.com
That's naruto@obc1314.com

NARUTO
Gather your chakra to your fingers and send your mails and postcards to the program!
Send them all in and you can become a hero datte ba yo!
And so, the ManPa for March we're all so concerned about...
It's the voice of Kabuto - Kanna Nobutoshi-san!
Seki-san, so please leave a message for Kanna-san.

IRUKA
Aah. Thanks for your hard work.
We both were called back to do an anime for a game we last did ten years ago.
All of us didn't change that much, but...
Your voice /really/ never changed at all!
Your voice is still so young and casual and basically great.
What's the oketsu... no, not oketsu (oketsu = impure blood).
What's the hiketsu (secret formula) for your young sounding voice?
Please tell us in this O-! NARUTO Nippon program.
Thank you.

NARUTO
I want to know too!
But Seki-san, you have a young-sounding voice too.

IRUKA
I'm just making it up.

NARUTO
No way!
Really?
And so with that, thank you so much for this one month, Seki-san.

IRUKA
Thank you very much!

NARUTO
I say this every time but really, this is not enough!
This is just not enough!
So please drop by again.

IRUKA
But... will this program last that long?

NARUTO
Don't say that.
It'll last. It'll last.

IRUKA
Let it last! Let it last!

NARUTO
Let it last! Let it last!

IRUKA
Right!

NARUTO
Then see you again same time next week!
You've been listening to Takeuchi Junko and!

IRUKA
Seki Toshihiko!

BOTH
Bye bye!
