00:02:40 Kikugoro
00:06:48 Sounds good to me.
00:10:32 Oh, it's Jinkido.
00:12:40 Listen, it's hot for everyone.
00:13:37 and some scissors from somewhere?
00:17:34 KikugorM ? He's Japan's most famous actor, isn't he?
00:19:16 That's for sure.
00:24:51 Hey, Wakasaya, where are you? Where are you? Making fun of people?
00:27:36 What's worse, the guy who plays the pantomime horse is really picky.
00:29:37 they couldn't very well have the No. 1 troupe. Isn't that right, brother?
00:31:40 I wonder.
00:33:43 Can you fix this horse's head? It's been damaged.
00:36:06 How?
00:38:07 that they couldn't tell the difference between a horse and a fox.
00:40:43 I can't go out there and act after being insulted like that.
00:43:37 But that's why we now owe the sponsor a great deal.
00:47:11 Shall we go get some soba noodles?
00:50:03 It's nothing.
00:56:46 And that's something for the audience to watch and makes it a lot more interesting.
00:59:37 Then tomorrow I should fix the head and get back to work.
01:02:35 I'd be willing to give you a special allowance, too.
01:05:54 We took time off to go the play, but we didn't see you.
01:08:54 Hey you. We're not going to give up yet.
