00:00:09 A Descendant of Urashima Taro
00:02:20 I spent 16 months on that island. What I saw there was this.
00:05:22 All of you listening can give a yell, too.
00:10:18 Don't you want to yell some more? You could yell from on high.
00:13:26 "Descendant of Urashima Taro Yells from Diet Roof "
00:17:00 "Begins 5th Day"
00:19:49 Don't worry.
00:22:54 A hero? Me?
00:28:05 were victims of militarism and despotism. That's why they're unhappy.
00:30:49 I just think it's interesting to see Urashima become a bigger and bigger hero.
00:33:38 we've brought Mr. Urashima here directly to help you with that.
00:36:39 It has to be the yell for the whole of nation.
00:40:26 I shouldn't have heard this.
00:44:51 He's gone.
00:47:32 Thanks.
00:51:16 Akako, bring back the old Urashima. He was a good guy.
