Aaaagh!!! It’s you! The Vespa Woman!!!
Shigekuni - Hurry up and sit down!
Haruko - Hi.
Naota - (Stammering)
Kamon - Oh, I just hired her to work for us. Her name’s Haruhara.
Haruko - Haruko. Pleasure.
(Naota looks at Kamon, bewildered.)
Kamon - I got run over, you know... Smashed.
Naota - By her Vespa!?!
Shigekuni - (Coldly) It should have killed him.
Kamon - But, instead, we got you a live-in housekeeper out of it, didn’t we?
Naota - Are you feeling okay, Grandpa? I mean... (He suddenly realizes what Kamon has just said.) You got a housekeeper!?! (Indicating Haruko) A housekeeper!?!?!
Haruko - (Matter-of-factly) ...Who was watching Taro-kun, who was making out with the high school girl.
Kamon - Fondling her yum-yums!?!
Naota - I told you, I’m not Taro!
Kamon - Fondling her cupcakes!?!?! (Naota yells as Kamon tackles him and puts him in a choke-hold, like a professional wrestler.) Who is this slut you’re fooling around with? Huh!?! Huh!?!
Naota - Ma-Mamimi! We were down at the river!
Kamon - Really? Mamimi?
Shigekuni - I’ll bet she does it like a weasel. She’s cursed, I tell you.
Kamon - Ah, your brother is away, so she’s sinking her fangs into you, Naota! Fondling around! Fooling around! Fooly Cooly!!! (He pauses.) What’s “Fooly Cooly?”
Naota - How should I know? I’m in still grade school! Do you think I’m that crazy?
Kamon - Ha-ha! Ha-ha-ha! (Meanwhile, Shigekuni attempts to explain “Fooly Cooly” to Haruko, using his hands.) That’s what it is: Naota’s Gundam Hammer.
Naota - Huh?
Kamon - It’s that Tomino-esque thing; saying it’s Gundam, but, basically, it’s giant robot anime, right?
Naota - I don’t know what you’re talking about!
Kamon - Nao’s just like me, so he must be doing it! I know he’s doing it! Doing it..! Doing it Fooly Cooly..!
Haruko - I see. Pretty impressive, little bro.
Shigekuni - ...Cooly, Cooly...
Kamon - So, what do you think, Haruko-san?
Haruko - Wadiya?
Kamon - Oh, Cooly Cooly, like that?
Haruko - Kool-Aid?
Kamon - Not like curry powder aphrodisiac, licked off my desk.
Haruko - Death?
Kamon - It’s this kind of Cooly Cooly new mentality!
Haruko - Noodle?
Kamon - I mean like MTV!!!
Haruko - Empty?
Kamon - Ooh, (fantasizing) “Former assistant editor-in-chief, I didn’t know you had such a lovely young wife!” Ooh, hoo, hoo, hoo!!! Cooly Cooly! Yeah! It’s kind of a Cooly Cooly dream thing!
Shigekuni - (Motioning with his hands) Yeah, Cooly Cooly is... You do it like this, with your hands, see?
Haruko - Oh, right. (She grabs Naota.) I’m already in that kind of relationship with Takkun here.
Kamon & Shigekuni - Relationship!?! How do you mean!?!
Haruko - Mouth-to-mouth. (She kisses the disgruntled Naota.)
Kamon - Ma-Mouth!?!
Shigekuni - ...Cooly, Cooly...
Naota - (Yelling at Haruko) I told you to shut up about that!!!
Kamon - So, living in the same house, you two are already Fooly Cooly, I see.
Naota - Who cares if it’s Fooly or Cooly!?!
Kamon - But, you’re still thinking of doing it tonight, aren’t you?
Naota - Stop acting like a kid!!!
Kamon - With that kind of perverted Fooly Cooly kind of dream, you must be... hiding it underneath this band-aid, aren’t you!?!
(He tries to pull the bandage off Naota’s forehead, but Naota resists.)
Naota - Aaagh! I’m not hiding anything!!!
Haruko - Band-aid... Oh...
Shigekuni - ...Cooly, Cooly...
Yo I finally found out where your pfp comes from, I got Puparia recommended to me on youtube this morning! It felt like watching some experimental theater production, it was pretty cool.
Ovaj novi Overlord 4 da ga jebeš... isto sam dao 6 ali realno bih dao 3. Zabole ih uvo za ljude koji ne ฤitaju lajt novelu izgleda. A uopšte nije teško ispratiti radnju. Zapravo je predvidljivo.
Good Thing to Start the Year by Rewatching the ONA Eve of Jikan
7 Years ago I thought the show was just decent
Now I gave it 8/10 Now since its really that good than most anime today that tackle the same concept
Thanks! I'd say it's very similar but also very different. Judging by your taste, I'd say it's worth a shot reading. It's similar in the sense of characters (very troubled main character who seeks salvation through a girl who is equally as troubled) and tackles very realistic themes of life. Both have a dark edge, but Punpun is incredibly darker and doesn't have a quarter of the comedy that NHK does. The time frames of the stories are different because NHK focuses mainly on adulthood, and Punpun spends a good portion on adolescence and how it shapes us into adulthood. Let me know what you think of it once you start it!!

I'm glad too :D tbh this fandom is getting too toxic, so it's refreshing to see that some people are being sensible.
