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!
Umhm? The cookies in the studio are different today!
Aah! The cookies are delicious!
And why is that so you ask?
It's because we have a special, lengthened 30 minutes section for today!
And in the studios, we've invited a special and very appropriate guest
for today.
Guest, huh? Ah well.
Let's bring out our motivation and actively participate in tonight's
program!
He's Morikubo Shoutarou-san, the voice of Shikamaru!
SHIKAMARU
Since we have a lengthened session for today, there's no one else to
call but me, Shikamaru, who's best at running away!
Good evening!
I'm Morikubo Shoutarou. I'm Nara Shikamaru.
NARUTO
Good evening.
Thanks for dropping by again.
SHIKAMARU
No no, I should thank you for inviting me at such an important point
of time in the program.
NARUTO
You're happy?
SHIKAMARU
I am.
NARUTO
Happy?
SHIKAMARU
But this year, I'll suppress myself.
NARUTO
Suppress yourself.
SHIKAMARU
Like you know, last year...
I think I said too many things without really thinking about it.
NARUTO
Without really thinking about it!
SHIKAMARU
Before the microphone,
and before everybody.
NARUTO
Yeah, that's true.
SHIKAMARU
I repent.
NARUTO
But...
Isn't that dangerous?
Wouldn't everybody remember all those words?
SHIKAMARU
...will they?
NARUTO
Of course they will--
SHIKAMARU
In everybody's memory?
NARUTO
Ah. We've probably forgotten cleanly about it.
We're making way for new things.
SHIKAMARU
Then that's good!
NARUTO
Then that's good!, he says.
Hur hur hur...
SHIKAMARU
Please forget.
NARUTO
Oh, well.
Speaking of which, Morikubo-san.
SHIKAMARU
Yes.
NARUTO
When you were the ManPa last year, you said you could count how many
pieces of oranges there were without pealing the skin off.
You were really adamant about it.
So just how many /were/ there anyway?
SHIKAMARU
Those are the kind of things you should forget.
NARUTO
Yeah?
You see, we might have all forgotten about it,
but it still exists in the tape recordings, you know?
SHIKAMARU
Aww, come on...
NARUTO
So...
Oh yeah! Morikubo-kun, you just had your birthday, didn't you?
SHIKAMARU
Oh, yes.
NARUTO
Happy birthday!
SHIKAMARU
Thank you.
I turned 30 this year.
NARUTO
Yes.
SHIKAMARU
Yes.
NARUTO
I've bought you some oranges for your birthday present.
SHIKAMARU
I don't eat oranges.
NARUTO
Unwrap, unwrap, busily busily...
SHIKAMARU
I hate oranges.
NARUTO
All right!
The fact that there are so many oranges means that...
Today. You shall enlighten us.
How many pieces are there inside?
SHIKAMARU
Mr. Maric was the one who did it!
I only /saw/ it!
Let's see... look at the stem...
And take it off.
NARUTO
You mean that greenish... spot on the top...
SHIKAMARU
Ah yes, I get it!
I know how many!
Let's go!
One, two, three, four, five, six, seven...
Did I miss some?
One, two, three, four, five, six, seven, eight...
Eight! Eight pieces of oranges!
NARUTO
Eeh!
SHIKAMARU
Eight pieces.
NARUTO
That can't be! It's so big and it and only has eight?
What're you going to do if you get this wrong?
SHIKAMARU
...I'll eat them.
I'll eat them.
NARUTO
I got it. You'll eat them, eh?
SHIKAMARU
I can't stand oranges.
NARUTO
But you know, it /can't/ be just eight.
SHIKAMARU
I /said/ it's eight!
NARUTO
One, two, three, four, five, six, seven, eight, nine, ten.
Ten.
Okay, okay.
SHIKAMARU
That's not right!
Let me try again?
I'm kindda, you know, lethargic for today, that's why...
NARUTO
Say 'aah'!
SHIKAMARU
Don't count orange pieces when you're lethargic!
NARUTO
Say 'aah'!
SHIKAMARU
Thank you.
NARUTO
Morikubo-kun the fruit-hater!
Was that delicious?
SHIKAMARU
Umm! Yes, very delicious!
NARUTO
Delicious, eh?
SHIKAMARU
Yeah, very!
NARUTO
Good, huh?
Then all of these are for you.
This program is thirty minutes, after all.
Oh dear, it's all mashed up.
You can eat all of these, okay?
SHIKAMARU
And while the thirty minutes progress, you hear me getting sicker and
sicker.
NARUTO
You'll be all right!
Definitely be all right!
And so anyway, you got the counting for the orange pieces all wrong!
SHIKAMARU
Yeah, wait, no, I mean... everybody. Try it.
NARUTO
Everybody, eh?
So everybody, try it, and once you find out what's the actual percentage
of accuracy, we'll acknowledge this method to be correct.
Strange, huh?
SHIKAMARU
Is this the one?
NARUTO
So anyway, our previous ManPa, Iruka-sensei's voice, Seki Toshihiko-san
left a message for you, please take a listen.
IRUKA
OSU! Good day!
How are you, Shou-chan?
Well... yeah.
Jun-chan tells me that she can't get along very well with Shou-chan,
so...
Shoutarou, you're 30 already.
Be a little kinder to girls, okay?
But you know, the way I see it...
Junko-san and Shoutarou...
...both of you behave like twins, I guess.
NARUTO
...that's what he said.
What do you think?
SHIKAMARU
He said we're like twins.
NARUTO
That's what I said he said! I want to know what you think!
SHIKAMARU
Is it because we're both blood type B?
NARUTO
You know... Seki-san's words are really kind and nice, but...
I think basically he doesn't really like me at all!
SHIKAMARU
I see.
NARUTO
So when he says that we're both like twins...
SHIKAMARU
Does that mean he dislikes me too?
Okay, you see, I do work with him on other projects in other studios.
I've known him for about 6 years already.
NARUTO
So long?
What kind of a person is Seki-san?
SHIKAMARU
Seki-san... hmm.
He hasn't changed that much.
He's got lots of buttons all over the place.
But... you don't know when... and where exactly you'll push his buttons.
NARUTO
Ah. You mean... they move?
SHIKAMARU
I don't know where either...
NARUTO
Oh man, I hate buttons that move by themselves!
SHIKAMARU
But if you go out drinking with him or something, you'll kind of understand
his charming side.
...Or should I say, his troublesome side.
NARUTO
His troublesome side.
Anyway, enough of that.
And with that, let's go WILD all the way to the end today as well!
Give your night to me tte ba yo!
SHIKAMARU
Sheesh... a radio guest?
Kindda troublesome but... guess I'll just have to do it!

NARUTO
Feels kindda wrong.
SHIKAMARU
How?
NARUTO
You know, this song is supposed to be a song for cats.
It's not a song where you try to make children cry.
SHIKAMARU
What do you mean?!
NARUTO
Sing it with a more cute voice?
SHIKAMARU
Cuter?
NARUTO
Cuter.
SHIKAMARU
Itsu no ma ni yara...
NARUTO
That's gross.
SHIKAMARU
Hey.
You were the one who made me do this!
NARUTO
Okay. In this corner...
We're making an Ouenka song for this radio program while waiting upon
the caring help of all the listeners!
It's supposed to be a three-way super mission of victory, hard work
and friendship!
SHIKAMARU
Err... you mean the song's not done yet?
NARUTO
Not yet!!
SHIKAMARU
You've been doing this song from since a pretty long time ago!
NARUTO
That is why!
That's why for today, we've invited the /artiste/ Morikubo Shoutarou-san
to the studio.
Waai!
And Morikubo-kun has brought his favourite guitar along for today.
SHIKAMARU
I have.
NARUTO
It's so huge, this guitar!
SHIKAMARU
Yes, the body is pretty big.
Compared to Junko-chan's.
NARUTO
Yeah, Ganko-chan is only about this big.
SHIKAMARU
That's true.
So it feels like male and female size?
NARUTO
Yeah.
But Ganko-chan got touched by Morikubo-kun just now.
Ganko-chan seems so happy that she can be touched by a guy!
Just as to be expected from Ganko-chan.
SHIKAMARU
She gives out a good sound.
NARUTO
She does!
And if I'm the one using her, she really cries with a good sound.
Like this, "Neeyeye".
So, about Morikubo-kun's guitar...
I'd like to show... I mean, tell all the listeners what kind of guitar
it is.
It's big, brownish, roundish, hugeish... and why is there a strange
wound mark here?
SHIKAMARU
You mean this?
NARUTO
Yeah.
SHIKAMARU
This one.
You know, just talking about it makes me want to weep...
NARUTO
Really?
SHIKAMARU
My ex-girlfriend struck and damaged it there.
Just one month after I bought it!
I broke an acoustic guitar back then during a live performance.
That was the guitar that had been with me since secondary school!
It was kind of second hand, but still!
So I wanted another one...
And spent about three to four months looking for it.
I went to so many instrument shops!
Then I found this original Stafford guitar in this Japanese instrument
shop called Kurosawa Gakki.
At that time it was normal to dream of having Gibson acoustic guitars,
but those were too expensive, so I couldn't find any that suited me.
So when I found the Stafford I went, hey, I want this!
They claimed it was a trial product or something.
And the shop was saying it would officially come out soon, or something.
So the shopowner introduced me to it...
So I bought it, and a month later...
It got damaged.
NARUTO
Why?
SHIKAMARU
It was a minor misunderstanding.
NARUTO
Well, I insist asking about what happened.
SHIKAMARU
Aww... it's like... can I say it?
NARUTO
Yes.
SHIKAMARU
Aah... aah...
NARUTO
What the-... play as you speak?!
SHIKAMARU
I won't be able to forget it.
It was about... 7 to 8 years ago?
NARUTO
Aah, when you were in your early twenties.
SHIKAMARU
Yes, early twenties.
I was going out with a certain lady.
NARUTO
Yes.
SHIKAMARU
You know, when you got to Ishidaka-ya for a drink, they'd give you
a packet of sample cigarettes, right?
NARUTO
Yes.
SHIKAMARU
About ten in a pack.
And they give you some female face tissues too.
NARUTO
Yes, they do.
SHIKAMARU
Anyway they gave me some.
So yeah, I had stopped smoking then so I threw the cigarettes away
when I got home.
And the very slim tissues too.
But it'd be left in the bin, right?
But since I've already threw it away, it didn't really matter to me.
No big deal, right?
NARUTO
That's right.
SHIKAMARU
So when I wasn't at home.
My girlfriend came.
And went, 'what is this?'.
NARUTO
Aaah.
And then?
SHIKAMARU
My just-bought guitar was just around so...
I'm telling you, girls are scary.
Whatever she aims for - as long as she doesn't like it, it goes up
with a POOF immediately.
But hey, I was really glad it wasn't the TV she destroyed then.
NARUTO
So wait.
That means, your girlfriend then took out all her anger on you on your
guitar?
SHIKAMARU
With her elbow.
NARUTO
Her elbow?!
SHIKAMARU
One shot with her elbow.
NARUTO
It got damaged just like that?
SHIKAMARU
She just elbowed it real hard and...
And actually she didn't really think it'd break.
She didn't think she'd break the body of the guitar so cleanly.
So she kind of hid it in the room next door.
Then she called me and was so angry...
I was wondering why is she so angry?
So I asked her...
And she explained... and I was like, wait a minute.
Those are just samples.
And she went, 'Oh... okay, I am so sorry... I did something really
bad.'
So I asked, 'What did you do?'
And she said, 'Look in the room next door.'
So I opened the door.
I don't have any children of my own, but.
It was like seeing the corpse of my child lying there.
'HEY!!!', was what I thought.
NARUTO
So you managed to fix it back?
SHIKAMARU
Yes I did.
NARUTO
I see.
SHIKAMARU
But it gives the thing a good feeling, doesn't it?
NARUTO
It does, but...
But you wouldn't even /imagine/ that something like that happened to
it, with that wound!
SHIKAMARU
The wound in my heart has healed already, too.
My guitar too.
NARUTO
So it's all healed.
And so... what's the name of your guitar?
SHIKAMARU
This?
It's... you know.
Emiko.
NARUTO
You only just named it just now, didn't you?
So it's Emiko-chan.
Emiko-chan, you've got a good body.
Very pretty!
SHIKAMARU
Glamourous, isn't she?
NARUTO
Very glamourous.
SHIKAMARU
Like that.
NARUTO
I see.
I wonder if all you listeners understand too?
About Morikubo-kun's guitar?
SHIKAMARU
You know, if we keep talking about things like that, I don't think
the song can ever make progress.
NARUTO
I get it.
So tell me some tips so that I can strum or pluck the guitar better,
please?
SHIKAMARU
Tips, huh?
So... how are you doing with it lately?
How about playing a bit for me, Junko-chan?
NARUTO
Lately I've been able to move out of the G chord!
And then C chord!
And then... like this...
Finally... eh wait, I did this.
This is the one, right?
SHIKAMARU
Err, wait.
NARUTO
This one, right?
SHIKAMARU
That's enough.
NARUTO
Huh?
Why?
SHIKAMARU
That's enough.
I think, if you go on like this... the song can't be written.
NARUTO
But why??
SHIKAMARU
If you go on like this...
I think you'll never be able to finish the song.
NARUTO
What's wrong with me?
SHIKAMARU
You see...
You haven't improved at all.
From since the last I saw you?
Yeah.
NARUTO
Darn, I got found out.
SHIKAMARU
Okay okay. I get it.
NARUTO
Yes.
SHIKAMARU
Let's not try the difficult chords.
NARUTO
Yes.
SHIKAMARU
Junko-chan, try this. *strum*
Practice strumming it like your life depended on it.
NARUTO
Strumming like my life depended on it.
SHIKAMARU
A big, forceful strum.
It'll have a nice sound.
Yes, like that.
Yes, yes, like that.
Make sure the sound comes out right.
Practice making nice sounds come out of it.
NARUTO
Darnit!
SHIKAMARU
Yes, like that.
Just think about that while practicing.
NARUTO
Is there anything I can practice that's a bit more pro-like?
SHIKAMARU
No no, don't. I don't think it'll ever end like this.
The song can't be written if you go on like this.
NARUTO
Then, can I ask you a personal question?
SHIKAMARU
Sure.
NARUTO
I don't know any chords besides the G and C.
Like, A, or F... or something-minor, etc.
Is it better for me to learn those chords as well?
SHIKAMARU
No.
NARUTO
No need?
SHIKAMARU
No need.
NARUTO
Really?
SHIKAMARU
You don't have to.
It's cool!
You can strum most songs with just the G and C chords.
NARUTO
It sounds... too simplistic.
SHIKAMARU
Just try to strum hard.
It's all right.
Strum like your life depended on it.
NARUTO
Really?
Okay.
SHIKAMARU
Just think of how you can give advancement to this project.
NARUTO
I understand.
But speaking of advancement, I think that it's impossible for me to
advance it myself.
You can tell too, right?
My... abilities.
And that I'm always trying to find the easy way out.
So that's why we got Morikubo-kun here today.
SHIKAMARU
Yes.
NARUTO
To cut a long story short.
Please become the song's composer.
...What. What's with that dark... guitar strum??
SHIKAMARU
I've been waiting.
I'VE BEEN WAITING!
NARUTO
REALLY?!
You mean it?!
SHIKAMARU
You should've asked me earlier!!
NARUTO
Oh man!
SHIKAMARU
Really!
NARUTO
Oh shucks, happy birthday!!
SHIKAMARU
That's too exaggerated.
NARUTO
You'll write the song for us?
SHIKAMARU
I've been waiting for you to say that!
You should've asked me earlier!
NARUTO
Really?
Then, then you've thought about something already or what?
SHIKAMARU
I've been thinking a lot about it.
All the different styles, my-style, etc.
NARUTO
Your style.
SHIKAMARU
I was wondering if you'd ask me to do it or not...
NARUTO
Really?
You'll write it for us?
SHIKAMARU
Of course.
But what kind of genre... would you like?
It's an ouenka, right?
NARUTO
Yes.
Something cheerful.
SHIKAMARU
Something cheerful.
There are quite a lot of cheerful genres around.
NARUTO
...I don't know.
SHIKAMARU
Rock? Or hip-hop?
NARUTO
Well...
Well I'm going to be singing this as Naruto, right?
Then since Naruto is singing this... how about a genre that's easy
to sing?
SHIKAMARU
Maybe... a song with a fast tempo...
Something punkish?
Punk-like.
NARUTO
Punk? What's that?
*sings*...something like that?
SHIKAMARU
Umm... yes, yes, something like that.
NARUTO
Really?
SHIKAMARU
That's the image it gives.
NARUTO
Really?
SHIKAMARU
Something that feels like you need to put a lot of effort in singing
it.
NARUTO
For example?
*sings*
SHIKAMARU
You know, umm... sometimes I take my guitar out and switch on the radio
to strum along with it.
But I'm not too reliable about these things.
NARUTO
I see. Yes, you did mention something like that before.
SHIKAMARU
I don't know any song that sounds like that, you see.
NARUTO
I see.
Then, Morikubo-kun, do you have any songs of your own?
SHIKAMARU
Of course I do. Lots of them.
NARUTO
Then strum us one of yours.
SHIKAMARU
What would you like to hear?
How about this?
It's graduation season now, right?
So let's see...
itsu mo
(I'm always)
ashita ga kuru no ga machi doshikute
(Looking forward to the coming of tomorrow)
yo ga akeru no o matte ita
(Waiting for the time when day breaks)
demo ima wa
(But now I'm)
ashita ga kuru go no o nanda ka kowakute
(A little scared about the meaning of tomorrow)
fuan no katamari sa
(It makes me so uneasy)
Like this.
NARUTO
OH WOW!
Just like a pro!
SHIKAMARU
It's graduation season.
NARUTO
Wah!
SHIKAMARU
So this song feels like graduation.
NARUTO
By the way, that genre is this song?
SHIKAMARU
This is... pop.
NARUTO
What about rock?
SHIKAMARU
Rock is... a bit more...
Junko-chan, you were talking about the strong strumming.
If you want rock, that's how you should strum it.
NARUTO
I get it.
I do get it but... I really don't listen to songs so...
I don't really get it at all.
SHIKAMARU
Don't worry. Just leave it to me.
NARUTO
Really?
So... since Morikubo-kun will be composing the song for us, what should
I do?
SHIKAMARU
Well, we're doing guitar, right?
You want to strum the guitar, right?
So just strum like what I said just now...
But just that alone isn't going to be interesting, so...
Just one thing more.
Arpeggio.
Just G and C chords will be okay.
NARUTO
Okay.
SHIKAMARU
How should I put it...
*strum*
Like this.
NARUTO
*strums*
SHIKAMARU
Yes.
That's half my volume.
NARUTO
Isn't this a bit difficult?
This makes me remember something.
I think about last last week?
Seki-san and I had an ensemble with the guitar and recorder.
And when we played it on the radio,
one of the listener's father in the house said, 'What in the world
is this out-of-tune song?!', and switched the radio off.
Maybe he switched the radio off because of just now too?
SHIKAMARU
Anyway, just practice this.
NARUTO
I get it.
SHIKAMARU
We'll make this into the highlight of the song.
I've already got most of the song ready in my head.
NARUTO
Already?!
SHIKAMARU
Yes.
NARUTO
So I'll just practice strumming and arpeggio.
SHIKAMARU
Just those will be enough.
Just those and people will be like, Takeuchi Junko is so good with
the guitar!
We'll make the song into something like that.
NARUTO
Wait, that's not going to eventually become an inside story about the
song, will it?
SHIKAMARU
It's all right.
NARUTO
It's all right?
SHIKAMARU
It's all right.
NARUTO
I get it.
SHIKAMARU
Just leave it to me.
NARUTO
Then... when will Morikubo-kun drop by again?
SHIKAMARU
I wonder when.
I really intend to write a song for this.
NARUTO
Yes, you'd better.
SHIKAMARU
You want to shape up this segment too, don't you?
NARUTO
Yes I do.
I do, I do.
So Morikubo-kun will be the composer, and you'll sing too, right?
SHIKAMARU
Yes, okay.
Just leave it to me.
NARUTO
Really?
SHIKAMARU
I'll compose everything.
I'll do everything for it.
NARUTO
REALLY?!
You'd do everything?
SHIKAMARU
Yes, so that something can come out.
NARUTO
Oh... are... oranges enough for thanks?
SHIKAMARU
I want pudding.
NARUTO
Pudding.
Then when you next drop by...
SHIKAMARU
I want strawberry mousse.
NARUTO
I'll prepare them.
SHIKAMARU
Something creamy.
NARUTO
...I see.
Thank you.
So we'll leave the composing to Morikubo-kun...
and I'll practice strumming and arpeggio...
Thus, the Oh! NARUTO Nippon! Ouenka Project will finally be able to
advance forward!
SHIKAMARU
/Now/ it advances?!
NARUTO
Please look forward to the song!

Kougaimuyou no Special Ninmu! (Special Mission: Futile Revelations)
In this special mission we'll have our special guest Morikubo-kun perform
a job from the request list.
When Morikubo-kun was the ManPa, he took on this mission before but
he adamantly refused to exert himself and therefore he did not do anything
at all in the end.
So his mission back then was considered to have failed.
Therefore, he shall have to carry out the mission one more time.
SHIKAMARU
I didn't refuse to exert myself!
NARUTO
You did!
SHIKAMARU
Why do you say so?
NARUTO
What you said back then couldn't be used at all!
SHIKAMARU
Actually to tell you the truth...
I'm sorry but I completely forgot what I said back then.
NARUTO
This guy is too much!
He was reading the newspapers!
He really was!
SHIKAMARU
What do you mean, I was reading the news?
NARUTO
You were going all 'I need to find info from here' while reading the
papers!
But even after that all you uttered was something nobody could use
for anything!
Then you just went 'I can't do this! I can't! I can't!'
Just /what/ was that anyway?!
SHIKAMARU
Well... what... what do you want me to do then?!
NARUTO
You said this the last time you came...
SHIKAMARU
Yes.
NARUTO
We have it on tape evidence here. Please take a listen.
--
SHIKAMARU
I simply cannot ad lib for my life.
NARUTO
Yes. You. So the next time we get you here for the monthly personality
we'll definitely have a script so-
SHIKAMARU
If you have everything written in a script from start to end, I'll
do as many as you want.
NARUTO
Why is this guy so good-for-nothing?!
SHIKAMARU
Even if it's a cool guy, or if you want me to gasp and breath hard...
If it's in the script, I'll do it.
Really.
NARUTO
... I don't need you to gasp and breath hard.
--
NARUTO
There we go.
SHIKAMARU
This guy sucks.
NARUTO
He sucks!
Since he sucks so much, I've done all the thinking for him tonight!
SHIKAMARU
You mean this.
NARUTO
There are two versions.
As mentioned, one of it is cutesy and the other is cool.
I've written both scripts in order to induce screams and squeals from
girls when it's read.
SHIKAMARU
I'll try it.
NARUTO
You will?
But I can help you think of something even greater than what's written
there if you want-
SHIKAMARU
No. No! Enough!
NARUTO
Thought so.
Now then.
You mentioned it before in Oh! Shikamaru Nippon, eh?
Shikamaru-san will do any, any, anything as long as he has a script!
So I've written you one and that's what you're holding there.
Do the first one!
Morikubo-kun, please carry out your first special mission!
SHIKAMARU
Bicycle! Bicycle! Kyu kyu!
I am Shou-chan!
I am 30!
There are so many cars today!
Shou-chan doesn't know what to do!
Oh well oh well!
Shou-chan will be late!
People, being late is bad!
Yay!
NARUTO
How was it?
Was it cute enough?
SHIKAMARU
Thank goodness I'm only voicing it.
I was just wondering... though... if the people listening will actually
find it interesting?
NARUTO
Of course they will!
After all, Morikubo-kun's image is all cool and stuff...
Letting you say things like bicycle! bicycle! makes you kindda idiotic,
huh?
SHIKAMARU
Now I'm mad!
NARUTO
One more script! It's a cool script.
Morikubo-kun, please voice it with your coolest voice.
Very cool voice!
The girls should all start screaming just hearing that cool voice!
SHIKAMARU
I'm sweating cold sweat.
NARUTO
Let's go!
Special Mission Version Two - please!
SHIKAMARU
Sometimes you feel like you need another's warmth.
There'll be a day when you'll feel that way... somehow.
This is how one of my favourite stories go:
I stretch towards the morning sun as it rises,
making and drinking coffee.
...hmm... I don't think I stretch 'towards' the sun...
I whisper into her ears - she, who is still dozing off in bed...
Softly I go, 'Good morning, my little kitty...'
She stares into space as she stretches.
She looks at me.
I kiss her slightly blushed cheeks against pale, white skin as I...
...tickle tickle tickle oooh my troublesome little kitty~~
What's wrong?
C'mere and lemme tickle tickle tickle!
NARUTO
Yeah!
That was cool!
SHIKAMARU
So... okay?
This enough?
NARUTO
Okay!
So the next time you drop by, please think about it for yourself.
It was really tough for me to think of the lines for you!
SHIKAMARU
So that's what it's about?
I still don't really get it, but anyway I did it, so... okay?
NARUTO
It's okay for today.
SHIKAMARU
Okay for the program?
Good.
NARUTO
You can do even more hair-raising ones next time, it's okay with me!
But anyway, the mission is finally accomplished!
Great!

NARUTO
WOW!
MINAMI
I'll read them out quickly.
Firstly - the NARUTO tankoubon volume 21 is going on sale on March
4th!
NARUTO
We're almost there!
MINAMI
Please remember to check it out!
And one more!
Some information about the NARUTO movie.
The NARUTO movie will be showing on cinemas nation-wide from August
21st onwards.
The pre-order tickets will be on sale soon!
They'll go on sale from April 11th onwards.
If you buy these pre-order tickets from the box office,
the first 50,000 buyers will get a NARUTO watch - the Naruttch as a
present!
NARUTO
Naruttch!
MINAMI
We have a few of them here.
NARUTO
It's a wrist watch.
SHIKAMARU
This is pretty good stuff.
NARUTO
Pretty good.
MINAMI
It's got a small clock attached to the special band.
Very interesting.
NARUTO
It's so cute.
How many kinds are available?
MINAMI
We have pattern Naruto, pattern Sasuke and Kakashi.
That's three in all.
Naruto, Sasuke, Kakashi... they've all got their own colours.
Green... orange and blue.
It gives the watch a different feel.
NARUTO
It's got a personality of its own.
They may have difficulty choosing one!
MINAMI
Yes.
NARUTO
It's so cute!
MINAMI
Please check it out!
Only those who buy the pre-order tickets will get to have one!
Only 50,000!
NARUTO
One watch per ticket?
MINAMI
Yes, that's right.
NARUTO
I see.
So if you buy three tickets you'd get three watches?
SHIKAMARU
Three watches!
NARUTO
If you want five watches you'd have to buy five tickets.
MINAMI
Please buy five tickets!
NARUTO
It's first-come-first-serve so you have to buy the tickets quickly?
MINAMI
Yes, please do.
NARUTO
I understand.
I'll go buy some too!
Thank you very much, Minami-chan!
MINAMI
Thank you very much!
NARUTO
I have an announcement too!
I'm voicing the lead in a drama CD - Taketori, which is now on mail-order
sale through Radio Oosaka!
Please support and buy!
For more details about the mail ordering, please visit the vstation
homepage!
I'm counting on you for Taketori!
There, it's done.
And the next monthly personality we're all so concerned about?
It's Kanna Nobutoshi-san, who voices Kabuto!
SHIKAMARU
Mm!
NARUTO
So Morikubo-kun, please leave a message for Kanna-san!
SHIKAMARU
Nobutoshi-san.
I'm going. I really am going.
So yeah... I'm going, so...
Please tell me which day's good.
NARUTO
Where're you going to?
SHIKAMARU
I promised Kanna-san I'd go his house.
NARUTO
Really?
SHIKAMARU
I've been using the computer to compose some music lately at my own
house, and I managed to introduce him to it,
so he also started to try it out, but...
It seems like he can't connect the equipment correctly.
So I'm going to his house to...
NARUTO
To help him connect his stuff.
SHIKAMARU
Yes, yes.
NARUTO
You sound like you're going there to work.
SHIKAMARU
Indeed.
NARUTO
Well, I'll ask Kanna-san for the details next month when he comes.
And so with that, thanks for today, Morikubo-kun!
Happy 30th birthday!
SHIKAMARU
Thanks.
The oranges were delicious.
NARUTO
Your orange-counting skill was completely off.
SHIKAMARU
I still think it's strange...
NARUTO
So please compose a song for us.
SHIKAMARU
Yes yes! Yes. I'm really going to do it.
NARUTO
Really?
SHIKAMARU
Please look forward to it.
NARUTO
You're really doing it, right?
SHIKAMARU
Leave it to me.
NARUTO
We all believe in you!
SHIKAMARU
Yes.
NARUTO
We all do.
So do I.
SHIKAMARU
Wha? You don't want me to write the song, do you??
NARUTO
We're now at the end of the show.
I caught a cold!
It's so hard to talk when your nose is running away!
So I'll fix it up by next week!
See you again same time next week!
You've been listening to Takeuchi Junko and!
SHIKAMARU
Morikubo Shoutarou!
BOTH
Bye bye!
