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 we're now in March!
Let's introduce our new ManPa for this month along with this postcard here.
Academy Student from Chiba - Kachi-san! Thanks for the mail!
" Please definitely invite my most favourite Kanna Nobutoshi-san, who voices Kabuto, for the next ManPa!
Kanna-san can definitely do a good job for Music Care!
(Don't be so nosy! Of course!)
So I shall await with anticipation every week!"
And that's that!
Okay, I got you, Kachi-san.
And all of you, who sent mail asking for the same!
The ManPa this month is...
Kanna Nobutoshi-san, who voices Yakushi Kabuto datte ba yo!

KABUTO
Orochimaru-sama... I have successfully infiltrated the O-! NARUTO Nippon program as a ManPa.
And so, good evening one and all, I'm Kanna Nobutoshi!!
YAHOO!!

NARUTO
Pleased to be learning from you!

KABUTO
Pleasure's all mine!

NARUTO
You know... Orochimaru's voice - Kujira-san came to this program before and...
Why is it that the seiyuu of bad guys... are all such good people?!

KABUTO
I have no idea.
But I know how you feel.
But wait. You don't know if I'm really good or not yet!

NARUTO
Ah. Right. So I have a question here.

KABUTO
Whazzat?

NARUTO
Is Kanna-san /really/ a kind person after all?

KABUTO
What do you mean, am I /really/?!
I /AM/ kind!

NARUTO
But you see... Yakushi Kabuto has a really kind face too, but he's actually very scary.

KABUTO
Yes he is.

NARUTO
So Kanna-san, since you voice him, are you actually very scary too?
Everybody is wondering.

KABUTO
Oh come on.
You /know/ that I'm a human made to uplift the masses!
Woah! What kind of a human is made to UPLIFT THE MASSES anyway?!

NARUTO
I know! A helicopter!!

KABUTO
*makes helicopter sounds*
Like real.

NARUTO
You're so good at this!!

KABUTO
Enough!

NARUTO
My first impression of Kanna-san was that... you're such an onii-chan!

KABUTO
Oh, you make me very happy.

NARUTO
It's like... you probably would bully me, but...
But if I cry or anything you probably would comfort me kindly too!
That's the onii-chan image I get from you.
Really, it's true.

KABUTO
Really?
I'm glad.
I really adore onii-chan type people.

NARUTO
You do?
You already /are/ onii-chan type, though...

KABUTO
For example, like... when I see people like Shoutarou?
Or when I see people like Junko-chan.
I feel like I want to pamper them to death!

NARUTO
Pamper me!

KABUTO
Let me pamper you!

NARUTO
Please pamper me!

KABUTO
But in exchange remember to hang out once in a while with oji-san here!

NARUTO
Oji-san? But I called you /onii-san/ only just now...
Anyway, you have a message from the previous ManPa, Seki Toshihiko-san, who voices Iruka-sensei.
Let's listen to it.

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
So how do you get the impure blood for your young sounding voice?

KABUTO
My impure blood? Young sounding voice?
Well if you smoke one pack of cigarette a day...
Maybe you'll get impure blood?
Okay, no, don't do that! It's really bad for your health, okay?
Anyway, please be responsible for your own voice.

NARUTO
You have one more message.
Morikubo Shoutarou-kun came as a special guest and left a message for you as well, so let's take a listen.

SHIKAMARU
Nobutoshi-san.
I'm going. I really am going.
So yeah... I'm going, so...
Please tell me which day's good.

KABUTO
I understand...

NARUTO
What are you both up to?

KABUTO
Well, you see... Shoutarou...
He has this desktop music thingie going on...
It's like, making music with your computer.
Anyway he got involved in it first.
So I thought, hey, I wanna do this too!
I got all my hardware ready, but I still lack something to complete the setup.
So I asked Shoutarou to help me out for this.
I asked him to come my house to look at it, when he was free.
But for a long time our schedules just made it unable for us to meet up.
I also did not leave my contact behind for him so...
I'm so sorry, Shoutarou.
I'm really really sorry!

NARUTO
He really wanted to go over.

KABUTO
He did?
Well, do you want to come over with him as well?

NARUTO
Ah... but I have bad affinity with Shoutarou-kun,
so I'll go on a separate occasion or something!

KABUTO
DOKAN!! (sfx for being shocked)

NARUTO
Dokan!
In this program, if your mail gets read out your rank will increase accordingly, it's a selection test based on your strength datte ba yo!
You are all Academy Students at first.
According to how much your mail is read, you will raise to Genin, Chuunin and Jounin!

KABUTO
Oh my!

NARUTO
And if you become Jounin!

KABUTO
What?

NARUTO
You get invited the studio.

KABUTO
NO WAY!! FOR REAL?!

NARUTO
Cool, huh?!

KABUTO
Seriously?!
I wanna write a postcard in now!

NARUTO
Cool! But your mail has to be read out at least 30 times first.

KABUTO
Or wait. I already /am/ in the studio now.

NARUTO
Yeah!
Please don't suddenly appear in the studio as a listener!

KABUTO
Sorry!

NARUTO
Now, we shall have our Ore no Nindou, Watashi no Nindou section!
Let me begin.
Academy Student from Tokyo, Tannenmaru-san's Nindou!
" Young veggies or bread for breakfast!
This is Watashi no Nindou Datte ba yo!"
Oh my. I can feel maternal love overflowing here.
Young veggies or bread...

KABUTO
Young veggies or bread...

NARUTO
Not a normal meal!

KABUTO
Young veggies are delicious, aren't they?

NARUTO
Very!

KABUTO
But when I was young I only got to eat young veggies during the new year.

NARUTO
...suddenly I'm very interested in your family background.

KABUTO
Okay!

NARUTO
Kanna-san, your turn.

KABUTO
Here I go.
Academy Student from Saitama, Shiratamaru's Nindou!
" When I throw trash into the trash can, I will toss it in from at least 2 metres away!
This is Watashi no Nindou Datte ba yo!"

NARUTO
Hey...

KABUTO
She doesn't put it in. She tosses it.
So cute.
But we often do things like these, eh?

NARUTO
Yeah, we do!

KABUTO
Like for example, orange skin... or empty cans?
You'd toss it too, right?
I'd go like this... tei-re-re-re dei-re-re-re...
Deretterettere! Deretterettere!
Shoot! Burrrn!!... like that.

NARUTO
You even have a song for it?!

KABUTO
Once it goes in it's like it goes "WAAAH!" like it has residue aura coming out...

NARUTO
I do that too, but..
But I didn't make up such a burning hot song for it.
From today onwards I shall sing it.
Tei-re-re-re tei-re-re-re...
Shoot! Burn... like that?

KABUTO
Yup.

NARUTO
I'll do it.

KABUTO
And then if it goes in... "WAAH!!"
Yup.

NARUTO
...living alone sure gets lonely.

KABUTO
It sounds stupid but it may be quite fun!

NARUTO
And with that, let's go WILD all the way to the end today as well!
Give your night to me tte ba yo!

KABUTO
I guess I could give all you adorable listeners a nugget of information or two.
On this program only, though!

KONOHAMARU
Hmm...
The more I hear about him... Naruto no nii-chan really lives up to his name.
He is the man worthy of being my rival!

IRUKA
Now /how/ in the world did all of that qualify to be rival-like stories?

KONOHAMARU
Iruka-sensei... have you anymore?

IRUKA
Once Konohamaru gets started on Naruto, he gets really engrossed.

KONOHAMARU
More!!

Radio Drama NARUTO - Chapter Three
A Trial to the Death!

NARUTO
Almost there...
I'm not going to lose today!
I'll attack with full force before Sasuke can even move!

SASUKE
Naruto's definitely going to start first.
It'll be difficult meeting him head-on.

SHIKAMARU
He who moves first, wins...
I'll go along with him.

CHOUJI
Here it comes...

IRUKA
Then, we'll stop at this part for today-

NARUTO
GO GO GO!!

SASUKE
See if I let you!

NARUTO
Danger! Ino! Get away from there!

INO
Ouch!
Where were you looking?!

NARUTO
Idiot! Shut up and go away!

INO
What?!
Aah! Sasuke-kun!
All right... I'm not going to let this chance off without doing anything!
Sasuke-kun...
Naruto knocked into me all of a sudden... it was so painful!

SASUKE
You're in my way!
Go away!

INO
Why...
Why didn't my sexiness have any effect at all?!
Mortifying!!

NARUTO
Dammit...
They're coming closer and closer...
They can overtake me if they want to already... but...
What the hell are these guys thinking?

SHIKAMARU
You really don't know what that Naruto'll do to you if you have your back against him, so...

KIBA
We have to keep this distance until we can see the destination!

NARUTO
All right! Just 20 metres away!
Now!!

SHIKAMARU
This is the right distance to break through!

KIBA
All right, it's mine!

SASUKE
You're all not going to do as you please!

NARUTO
Now- GEH!!

IRUKA
Naruto!!
I thought I always told you never to run along the corridors?!
And you left the classroom without saying goodbye!

NARUTO
irukasensei...
letmego...

IRUKA
I thought I told you to stand in the back until I said you can go?

NARUTO
illapologise...
illapologiseallyouwantlater...
sopleaseletmegonowplease!!

IRUKA
You're always just all-talk!

SASUKE
Oba-san!
One pork chops plus lard and one aburasoba (cream buckwheat) bread and milk!

NARUTO
Ah! Sasuke! YOU!!

OBASAN
All right.
Pork chops plus lard and one aburasoba bread and milk.
And some love from oba-chan!
*smooch*
I won't let you off if you leave any unfinished!

SASUKE
... Don't add stuff I never asked for!

NARUTO
Damn! Damn!
Let me go!!

KIBA
Oba-chan! Aburasoba bread and orange juice for me!

SHIKAMARU
I'll take one of that as well.

CHOUJI
Five of that for me!

OBASAN
All right. Thanks for the business!
*smooch* *smooch* *smooch*

NARUTO
DAMMIT ALL!
All because of Iruka-sensei my aburasoba bread is!!

IRUKA
Sorry, sorry!
Don't cry!
I'll give you a treat.

NARUTO
Really?
YEAH!!

IRUKA
Excuse me!
One aburasoba bread-

OBASAN
No more!
It's all sold out to those kids just now!
It's the number one popular bread in this canteen after all!

IRUKA
Is there anything... left?

OBASAN
Vegetables and the special sandwiches which has all my love put into it.

IRUKA
Then, I'll take-

NARUTO
No!!
I don't want 'em...
I'd rather not eat if I have to eat vegetables...
Iruka-sensei, you IDIOT!!

IRUKA
Oh my...
He really is angry now...

INO
You're so slow!
I was waiting for you to eat our lunch together!
Sasuke-kun is such a shy-shy boy!

SASUKE
Lemme go!

SAKURA
Hey, Ino!
Get away from Sasuke-kun!

INO
Oh, and I was wondering who it was.
So it's the big-forehead girl!

SAKURA
What did you say?!
Sasuke-kun!
Let's not bother about people like her and go over /there/ to have our lunch!

INO
Sasuke-kun is /mine/!

SASUKE
Hey.

BOTH
Yes, Sasuke-kun?

SASUKE
You both. Are. Annoying.

NARUTO
Hey, you guys!
Hand my aburasoba bread over!

KIBA
When the hell did it become yours?
And I already ate it!

NARUTO
Spit it out!!

KIBA
How the hell am I supposed to do that?!

SASUKE
It's your loss for not being able to buy it, usuratonkachi.

NARUTO
WHAT DID YOU SAY?!?!

CHOUJI
I'm not handing any one of mine over to you.

SHIKAMARU
Darnit. Can't you at least let us have lunch in peace?

HINATA
Na... Naruto-kun... if it's all right with you, you can take half of my lunchbox-

NARUTO
Sorry, Hinata.
That's not the problem here.
This is a man's fight.

CHOUJI
Don't get so fired up.
You'll get hungry like this.

NARUTO
Shut up!
It's all your fault for buying five so that there's no more for me!
You fatty!

CHOUJI
Eh?
What did you say?
I didn't quite hear you just now.

SHIKAMARU
Idiot! That word's a taboo for Chouji!

NARUTO
I'll say it as many times as you like.
Fatty! Fatty! Big fatty-chan!

CHOUJI
I'm not fat! I'm just big-boned!!
Respect for big-bones!!

SHIKAMARU
Oh no.
He snapped.

IRUKA
Guess I did something bad to Naruto.
But I got her to make one more aburasoba bread for him...
I guess we can patch things up like this.
Hey, Naruto!
Sorry for just now!
I got you your aburasoba bread-

CHOUJI
Baika no Jutsu!!

IRUKA
What the-!?
Wait wait wait... WAIT A MINUTE!!
That's... that's enough, you bumbling baboons...
ALL OF YOU STAY BACK AND CLEAN UP THE PLACE FOR PUNISHMENT!!!!
