Hibana chirasu Jungle Haré nochi Guu!
I'll be going now!
Take care!
Guu, you're coming with me to school!
This is no time for you to be doing such an old-school gag!
I wanted you to feel at ease, Haré, among all your hardships...
I feel most relaxed when you don't do anything, Guu.
Yo, you there, Bro.
Me?
Yeah, you stylish dude.
Wait! You're so modest!
Don't be leaving, leaving me behind!
A Big Box
Do you want me for something, Mister?
I have to go to school now.
Something big!
I need some advice from ya right now.
I'm going to see an old acquaintance for the first time in a few years...
...but it ain't no fun to see them in a normal matter, right?
Oh, so it's not fun?
And so, I was wondering if there was some plan that would surprise 'em.
I see...
Weird!
Why is he being so friendly from the first time we meet?
And this asking for advice...
Why do I get the feeling there's something behind all this?
Looking at him, he has pale skin, so he's not from around here.
Did he come over from the city?
That means, his old friend...
...must be him.
Well, they say that friends act alike, so it wouldn't be unusual for someone that he knows to be strange...
But, I want nothing to do with it.
So, you got any ideas?
Eh... W-Well...
I can't come up with anything like that.
Don't be saying that.
Ya gotta have something, anything.
Stop that.
Ashio, he's scared because you're acting very suspiciously.
A coat and boots in the constantly hot jungle?
She's suspicious too!
That ain't so! I'm a 100% nice young guy!
Then, don't hide your face, and speak like one!
Geez, senpai...
Mister, your eyes are scary...
That's why I told you to hide your face.
Senpai, what you're saying now is different from before.
Shut up!
Your face doesn't sit well with kids and animals.
I'm sorry to surprise you so much, boy.
He looks the way he does, but deep within, he's a nice guy.
He's nobody suspicious, so rest assured.
A nice guy? Only the suspicious kind say things like that...
Yup, yup. I'm all good.
Let's be friends!
He's glaring! He's really glaring at me!
Guu... You know, Guu...
Hm?
H-Hey, Guu.
Do something about this.
I want to leave here peacefully, without upsetting that guy.
Sure!
Thank goodness!
Guu comes in handy at times like this because nothing phases her.
With that face of yours, are you sure you're not in the wrong anime?
Wrong!
That was the message that boy over there wanted me to pass along.
Noo!
I'm sorry. I'm sorry. I'm sorry...
You sure say funny stuff. I'm sorry. I'm sorry. I'm sorry...
My stomach hurts from laughing! I'm sorry. I'm sorry. I'm sorry...
All right.
You and me are gonna be brothers from today on, okay?
It's great that you made a new friend.
No, this isn't the way I wanted things to be.
That's enough of that now.
Can you please decide on what to do quickly?
I don't mind visiting in an ordinary manner...
But you insisted on a surprise reunion, Ashio.
That's why I'm waiting here for you like this.
You say that, senpai, but you rejected each and every one of my plans.
All of your plans are all screwed up!
That's not true, right brother?
Right?
Well, um, I'm not really seeing the flow of things here...
All right! I'll tell you. So listen, listen up!
Make sure you picture eveything clearly.
S-Sure.
This is when the target is lounging at home as usual.
And then, an old acquaintance snakes in from the middle of the wall.
Hey! Long time no see!
Wouldn't you be surprised?
Well, you'd be strange if you weren't surprised by that...
Right! You really get it.
You've got nice feelings.
Or rather...
...there's something wrong with this guy.
You're not one that should be passing judgement.
Don't you think it's great to bring in the "going through the wall" gag?
Nobody would expect that, right?
Actually, it's impossible for anyone to expect that.
Then, how about this?
Imagine net-surfing in a relaxing moment late at night.
Then an e-mail with a file attachment arrives.
Wondering what it is, you fearfully click on the file...
...and an acquaintance suddenly pops out of the computer screen!
Yo!
You'd be surprised, right?
Huh...
The point here is you'd be relieved that he wasn't a virus!
The point, huh...
And, the best idea is yet to come! Listen, listen up!
There's more?
The phone rings during your normal relaxation time.
"Oh, who could it be?" you wonder as you answer the phone.
Why does he sound like a girl?
The caller was an old acquaintance, and says, "It's been a while..."
...and when you look outside the window, the caller is standing right outside, with a cell phone in hand.
Yo.
This one is normal.
Or so you thought.
But, that phone was actually a fax!
And, what was being sent was the acquaintance.
Yo!
H-H-Hold on just a minute there!
You'd be surprised, right?
Surprised or not, they're all things that are physically impossible!
Oh, in that case, make sure to send me from the head.
It'd be awfully unstylish to be sent from the feet.
So I'm the one in charge of sending!?
Oh, so human civilization has progressed that far...
No, no! Don't take all this seriously!
Human knowledge is so amazing...
I'm telling you! Humans going through walls, the mail, and the fax, they're all absolutely, positively impossible!
No. Humans can do anything if they have the will to succeed.
Oh, you just said a good thing! I was slightly touched by that!
That's right. It ain't right to say something's impossible before ya try it out.
Even if you've got the willpower, you can't do something that's impossible!
Don't finish your conversation with something out of an inspirational speech!
You know, if you want to surprise this person, you can use a simpler method.
Oh?
You know, like you hide in a big gift box, and when the recipient opens it...
...or something like that.
I don't think of such ordinary ideas.
I-I'm sorry! I said too much! I don't think of such ordinary ideas.
I-I'm sorry! I said too much!
Let's do that.
What?! Senpai, you rejected my ideas, and accepted a worthless idea like that?
If you're prepared to complain about my decisions, you're prepared to accept a pay cut, right, Ashio?
All right, is there a big box around here?
Got to be one around here somewhere. Oh, that's right, the box itself isn't here so it's impossible after all...
I just happened to have this big box with me.
Want it?
Oh, we can have it?
Whoa, the two of us can easily fit in this!
Wait, what's up with this "I just happened to..." thing?
Someone say something about it!
No need to hold back.
I'm so sorry to trouble you.
Thanks!
Wait, nobody seems to mind!
I'm sorry to have delayed you. You must be busy.
Thank you.
Let's play together again sometime.
Yeah. See ya later.
I hope there won't be a next time.
They say that birds of a feather flock together...
...but having someone like that as a friend...
I feel a bit sorry for him.
Hm?
Oh, I'm just pitying the school doctor.
Ashio, carry this.
Let's go.
Sure.
Those two were really strange...
I wonder when they're going to visit the doctor.
Yeah, yeah, those strange guys.
A way to meet an acquaintance...
I wonder why they're so eager to surprise their acquaintance.
Really!
Hey, about that...
This morning, there were strange people on their way here.
Could it be a really tall woman and...
...a guy with a really sculptured face.
Eh? You saw them?
You too, Haré?
Y-Yeah. Kinda.
He gave me a hot springs cake, and asked me to think of a good idea.
He gave me chocolate macadamia nuts.
I got beef jerky.
I got a can of shark fin soup.
I got smoked salmon.
I got some coffee beans from him.
What about you, Haré?
I'm the only one that didn't get anything!
That guy with those eyelashes!
I'll share half of mine with you. That guy with those eyelashes!
Well, that aside, what country are those two from!?
This looks like a world's fair of souvenirs...
This is no time to be analyzing it!
Those two are really planning to surprise that school doctor!
You want mine?
He's not a great guy, but since I was the one that gave them the idea...
I'll feel sorry for him if I don't warn him about all this.
Pity doesn't help anyone.
What do you mean?
It's an old saying that means half-hearted acts of pity or help are no good because they just spoil someone.
That's not right!
It means that the world is made up of people that support each other...
...so any good acts you do now will someday come back to you, right?
Oh, return good with evil.
Don't say something so ruthless.
Even matters in hell depend on money.
I'm telling you...
Nobody will pick up your corpse after you die.
That's not even a real proverb!
Those who are hated disperse through the world.
Since you understand, cut it out!
Surrounded by enemies.
Huh?
Seven trips, eight falls, everything is for naught.
Are you by chance talking about me?
Not at all.
A crying face is where a bee lands. A crying face is where a bee lands.
A crying face is what Haré has.
So, you are talking about me! Ouch, ouch, ouch, ouch...
Huh? Come to think of it... Ouch, ouch, ouch, ouch...
When I'm doing something like this, usually... Ouch, ouch, ouch, ouch...
Shut up!
Who told you that you could make such noise!?
That's what usually happens. This is strange.
Hey, Doc, I'm coming in.
What the hell!?
Blood?
Paraben, Dimethyl Hydroxytoluene, Yellow #4, Red #226...
From these ingredients...
Lipstick!
Don't analyze it!
This is, no matter how you look at it...
Grandma Dama's hair.
No, this might be...
...the elder's chest hair.
Are you serious?
Of course not.
Oh, well.
I'm home.
Welcome home.
You know, today... this morning, there were really strange people...
...and they asked me for something that I didn't understand, and I was late for school!
But, in the end...
Wait, why are you here, Doc!?
You're using our house as an evacuation point again! Leave, go home right now!
If you're going to get mad, notice me earlier than when you did.
Make more noise, and your mom will wake up.
A nap?
Or rather...
When you hide out in our house it always causes us trouble!
Go home right now!
You can still yell, even when you're whispering?
In the first place, your existence is bad for my ethics education!
Don't you be saying so yourself.
Geez, you come into someone else's house without permission...
That guy I met this morning, and you, Doc...
...both of you are an even match when it comes to lack of common sense!
They really mean it when they say that birds of a feather flock together.
The guy you met this morning?
Yeah, your friend.
Who?
I don't know.
Maybe you'll see him if you go home.
Haré.
What is it?
This was right next to the door.
You! You brought this here, didn't you!?
I don't know anything about it. It was already here when I got here before noon.
What!?
Weda-chan was asleep, and I thought it would be bad to wake her, so I've been keeping quiet.
What's your problem?
What!? Then this isn't a nap, this is just her sleeping in!
She must have gone back to sleep right after I left!
I can't believe she's still so dead asleep!
Hey, Mom, get up already!
What's up with this big box here!?
Morning.
Oh, doctor, good morning.
This is no longer time to be saying "good morning"!
I'm asking, what's up with this box!?
No time to yawn!
This box was right outside the front door a while after you left for school with Guu.
It had a letter on it, saying it was a gift...
...so I thought I'd open it together with you after you get back from school, Haré.
Just as I thought.
Who is it from?
It didn't say.
Really, who is it from?
T-T-The contents of this box must be...
What should I d-d-d-do, do, do, do with...
Let's hurry up and open it.
Wait just a minute!
What? You want to open the box yourself?
Then, go ahead.
Haré, you really are a child.
Isn't he?
That's not it!
Oh, all right. Go ahead, open it, Haré.
Come on, open it.
That's not it!
If I open this box, I have a feeling there'll be more problems in my future...
Oh, I don't want to open this, I so don't want to open this...
This is rather strange for a gift.
It seems like there might be people inside it.
Impossible.
But there'd be a problem if this was something perishable.
After all, it's been sitting out here for about 5 hours, from when Haré went to school until when he got back.
Perishable?
Hurry, hurry, hurry, hurry!
What? What's inside?
Why? Why are they all right?
He's all normal and stuff!
H-He was surely in here for at least 5 hours, yet he doesn't have a drop of sweat on him...
Oh, geez! I don't know whether to open it, or keep it shut!
A lid on something that stinks.
Don't go saying something so irresponsible!
You help me think of a plan to solve this!
Guu's ear is impervious to chants.
Don't say so yourself!
Oh, is this a doll?
Dunno.
When did he?
It's rather poor taste for a gift.
Eh? But isn't it interesting?
Things like this speak up when you push their tummies.
H-Hello.
See? See? Just as I thought!
I wonder if it says anything else...
Good evening.
Good morning.
Good evening morning.
Good even- no, Hello.
It doesn't speak many lines.
He lost the element of surprise.
This doll really has a scary face. He has long eyelashes, too...
You think so?
But I know of someone that has a face that looks like this.
Could that guy's name be Ashio?
That's right. Did I tell you about him, Haré?
No...
It's really him. Realize it already.
But that's strange... There was one more person - a woman...
I wonder if there are any other places to push...
Maybe it won't speak anymore.
It seems like a crappy one.
Eh? You think so?
Isn't there anywhere to push?
Maybe here.
Ojou-sama, it's been a while. It's your maid, Bell.
Huh?
Oh! Terror? This must be an act of terror!
Psychological attack by a political group, or violence meant to show off a group's power! Or, the culprit of such actions!
How can this be!? Terrorists even here in the depths of the jungle!?
T-E-R-R-O-R! An act of terror!
Ashio! Hurry up and protect the ojou-sama!
Bell?
That means, this doll...
...is Ashio?
Ojou-san, it's been a while.
I'm sure you were surprised. Right?
Geez, Ashio, you surprised me a bit...
Yes, yes, we were surprised. We were so surprised...
Who the hell are these guys?
They're the kids of the live-in servants that work in my old house.
They're like childhood friends of mine.
Then, they might know me...
And so, who in the world are you?
You sure act smug in front of Ojou-sama.
What's your relationship with our ojou-sama?
So, I'm-I'm... I can't speak like this.
Whether or not you get out of this depends on your answer.
So, I'm-I'm... I can't speak like this.
M-My consciousness is slipping away...
Hey! Hey!
What is it? An old guy that I don't know is calling for me...
Hey! Hey!
So, who are you? Tell the truth.
Dammit, I was wandering between life and death...
Well, my relationship with her-
He's a friend.
I think she stressed the word "friend" a bit too much just then...
You're my friend, right?
No, must have been my imagination.
Ashio, isn't that the boy and girl that we met and spoke with this morning?
That's right.
The boy must be Ojou-san's son.
He looks exactly like her when she was young.
Senpai, you're so aloof that you didn't notice...
...but I knew the moment I set eyes on him just now.
Speak up earlier.
Sorry.
I apologize for being so rude to you this morning, not knowing that you were our ojou-sama's son.
Eh? Oh no, I don't mind.
And this young lady is Haré-sama's schoolmate?
This girl is part of our family, Bell.
Oh, Ojou-sama's...
That means she's the second child!?
You! Did you lay your filthy hands on my ojou-sama!?
I'll kill you!!!
W-Wait a minute. I just came to this village...
Wait...
Hey! Hey!
Oh, that old man is calling for me again...
Hey! Hey! ...and there's even an old woman with him...
Hey! Hey!
No, no.
Huh?
Guu... is... not... Weda's...
Don't speak slowly on purpose!
...child.
Oh, oh, my, is that so?
Then, this person over here is Ojou-sama's acquaintance from the jungle...
Actually, he's Dr. Clive, right?
The one that looked after Ojou-san when she was young.
Eh?
Senpai, you're so aloof that you didn't notice, but I!
That means, how did this girl...
Guu just lives together with them.
Guu, you don't have to admit that you're sponging off us...
It must be difficult for you to say.
Guu...
By the way, Weda and I are romantically involved.
You're just a moocher! Don't tell such an obvious lie!
Guu is always like this, so don't worry about...
To think that our ojou-sama swung that way!
Eh? Does she believe things that easily!?
So shocking...
Don't believe it! Of course it's a lie!
Weda-chan... You're serious!?
Oh, geez, why is everyone around me so dumb!?
That's not really the case.
Dammit! Your explanation is late, and your voice is too low!
We just live together due to certain circumstances.
Oh, is that so?
Bell, what brings you guys here anyway?
I don't know why they came, but I sure hope they quickly finish whatever errand they're here for and go home...
We were given a long vacation, Ojou-sama. So we came all the way out here to take care of things around the house.
We'll work hard. Please assign us anything.
I'm so happy. Thank you, Bell.
Ojou-san, I'm here, too!
You're a big help!
So that's that.
Our best regards.
They've asked for our blessing.
Oh, why?
Why do strange people keep gathering around me!? Hey, tell me.
Did I do something bad?
Come on, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey...
Want me to tell you?
Yeah, W-What, what is it? Tell me, tell me!
Birds of a feather...
What's that supposed to mean!?
NEXT EPISODE
Eh? My mom's past is finally coming out into the open!?
Come to think of it, I myself don't know much about her.
Until recently, I never even thought about the existence of my father.
Huh? Maybe I'm indifferent by nature?
That reminds me, Mom was the daughter of a rich family...
I mean, she had Ashio and Bell as well as other servants.
Although, I can't picture that from how she is now.
Guu, what's with that whistle?
You want me to blow on it? Oh, I wonder what kind of sound it makes.
Hey, who did you take that from!?
Next episode of Haré+Guu: BOO!
Wait, the episode title is too short!
BOO!
