Woman... having learned our secret, you cannot leave here alive.
Prepare yourself.
Halt!
Who dares?
Vanquishing evil in heaven's name...
They call me... the Samurai Savior!
Hear me, worms.
The demons await you in the Sanzu River.
To hell with you all!
Kill him!
Right!
Wonderful!
Great!
Oh, exciting!
Hey, what's with you?!
Watch where you're swingin' that, Jiraiya!
Vanquishing the evil in heaven's name.
They call me... Samurai Savior!
Huh? What's with you, man?
You got this weird gleam in your eye...
He's been like that ever since we got that television.
I never pegged you for the crazy type!
Calm down, Jiraiya! Please, calm down!
Silence!
The demons will await you in Sanzu River.
To hell with you all!
Cut it out, man!
Knock it off, Jiraiya!
Ow!
What on Earth?!
Jiraiya's on television!
"Jiraiya, do you love me?" "Oh, Jiraiya..." No! There's no time for that nonsense!
This week features a yokai who, like Jiraiya, goes absolutely bonkers over TV!
Thank you for everything.
So cool! I never seen anything so cool!
Next to him, I'm nothing...
Mr. Dorota!
You're the one who set out your recyclables, aren't you!
I keep telling you, recycling day is THURSDAY! Why can't you remember that?!
SHUT UP!
Have a good look at this line!
I'm standing in front of a ramen shop they say is the best in Tokyo!
But, let's have a look for ourselves!
An Enthralling Live Performance
Welcome!
My, it's so delicious!
How to put it...
It's very thick, but not overpowering.
Well, chef? What's the secret to your success?
The secret ingredient is love!
Ramen dear. Be delicious for me, okay?
That's the attitude I take towards my cooking.
-Oh I see! That's wonderful! -Thank you!
Hold it! Hold it, everyone!
Clear the way, clear the way!
W-what are you?
Vanquishing evil in heaven's name.
They call me... the Savior Samurai!
What's with that guy?
Hear me, worms.
The demons await you in the Sanzu River!
To hell with you all!
Let's get out of here!
What was that all about?
-Where ya goin'? -Get away!
I'm pretty cool, ain't I?
-Keep filming! Keep filming! -What are you doing?! -Stop!
Who d'you think you guys are?!
Get outta my way!
So cool!
What are you doing? We need footage of that young man!
You little punk!
Hey! Check it out!
Saizou and Jiraiya are on TV!
From midnight through the morning, this front will be moving northward.
We can expect afternoon showers in all parts of the country.
If you're going out tomorrow, don't forget your umbrella.
Huzzah! Blue skies o'er Japan!
Keep filming! C'mon! Keep filming!
-I wanna be on camera! -What are you doing? Get out of here!
-Get back here! -What are you doing?!
Stay outta my way!
Dorotabo
You're gonna get it!
Something awful has happened! This is definitely getting serious!
Let's move to a safe distance!
Yes ma'am!
This yokai is Dorotabo!
Dorotabo is a yokai that appears in fields and rice paddies!
With fewer fields around now, the modern Dorotabo is in decline!
Lonely and exposed, scraping out a miserable existence!
By the way... what am I doing in this television?
Super Henge!
Oh my goodness!
-What are these costumes? They're so cool! -Oh, we're, uh...
There's my chance!
Muddy Ball!
Take that!
Oh, how awful...
Dad! Are you okay?
-You okay, dad? -You okay?
I will not forgive you, yokai!
Time to withdraw!
You coward!
Toshio begged me to take him on.
A TV quiz show, huh?
Yes...
It's called Super Battle Quiz. Me and dad were gonna be on.
Sorry, Toshio.
If we'd won, we would have won a trip for two to Hong Kong and Macao.
Dad, you said you're always so busy, you've never been outside Japan, right?
That's why I wanted to get all the questions right and take you on a trip.
Toshio...
I feel very sorry for him.
Oh, I just knew they'd be here!
Come on, this way!
Have a look, everyone!
These are the two young men who battled that awful yokai earlier!
Me? These are the two young men who battled that awful yokai earlier!
You were so cool, weren't you!
What's your name?
Hey! Wait a minute! What are you doing?
Look, this is a hospital room!
Wait a minute! You can't be here! Stop this!
What?! Why do THEY get to be on TV?!
No one put ME on TV!
Mr. Dorota! I have ASKED you to stop yelling at the TV!
My baby is trying to sleep!
Mr. Dorota!
SHUT UP ALREADY!!
This time, I won't stop until I get on TV!
Go! Muddy Ball!
Take that!
What's wrong?
One more!
I'm gonna be so famous! Where's the cameras?
C'mon! Someone film me!
Cut it out, yokai!
That's enough!
Come an' get me! Come an' get me!
Take... THAT!
Where the heck did he go?
We gotta stop him before he starts more crap in the city!
Just a minute. Where's Jiraiya?
Huh? Good point, I haven't seen him since the hospital.
Yeah...
Hoy! There ye are.
Sandayuu!
Jiraiya's on TV, if ye're wonderin'.
Huh?
They're doing wonderfully! Just one question left!
If they get this right, they win a trip to Hong Kong and Macao!
-Are you ready, Toshio and big brother? -We will try.
Big brother?
You've got to be kidding me! There's nice, and there's just plain stupid!
We've got work to do!
I do wonder.
This program's a well beloved one. Gets a 30% share in the ratings.
It may be, Jiraiya's betting on the yokai seeing this program...
In America, spies are known as "CIA."
But what did the ancient Japanese call their spies?
What could it be, big bro?
I don't know!
It's hard. I do not know either.
You're running out of time.
Five seconds remain.
Four.
Three.
-Big brother! -Two.
-I will have to gamble. -One.
Ninja!
We did it!
Magnificent! You got every question right!
-Congratulations! You're our quiz champions! -YES!
Congratulations. You did a very good job.
What's all this 'champion' nonsense?
I'm the real champion, here!
You wanna film me! Me!
There he is! We've caught sight of the young man from before!
Get a shot of this!
If you really want to become that famous...
Then you should have a fair and square fight with me!
If you win, you will also be famous.
Right! It'll be a cage match to the death! Got it?
Okay! No problem.
Jiraiya!
The tension is so thick, you could cut it with a knife!
Good luck, Jiraiya!
Jiraiya!
Vanquishing evil in heaven's name.
They call me... Jiraiya!
You think you're so big!
Lemme tell you somethin'...
They call me... the yokai, Dorotabo!
The demons await you in the Sanzu River!
To hell with you!
No...
That line is mine to say!
Shut up! It's time to fight! Let's go!
Fight!
It's starting! The greatest battle in our history!
Sasuke...
You can do it, Jiraiya!
Oh my! The yokai has taken a shock from the electric fence!
Yeah!
We'll play the next round with swords.
Okay. Come on.
Take this!
The second round is over!
The young man wins again!
Hooray!
This round, we'll play it with boxing!
Come on!
C'mon, that all you got?!
Ya got me!
-Jiraiya! -Great job!
Here's your champion!
I'm champion!
I can't stand it!
If that's how you wanna play it, I'll grow giant...
... and crush you all into the ground!
This is awful! The yokai has turned into a giant!
What will become of us?!
Help us!
A-anyway, let's move to a safe distance!
Right!
It's Super Henge!
Right!
Doron Changer!
Kakure Style...
Art of the Giant Beast, Juusho!
Black Ranna!
Yokai! You used my beloved television as a toy!
You must now prepare de gozaru!
Shut up! Take this!
You got me that time!
Quick! Get a shot of this!
It's starting! The greatest giant-scale battle in our history!
Kakure Style Ninpo! Sandstorm!
Ow! My foot!
Ninja Combination!
Mighty Shogun!
Spectacular! Somehow... the five of them have combined, to create something even more amazing!
Today, you are a superstar!
What was that?!
Blazing Shogun Sword!
Rest in peace!
He did it! That was awesome, Jiraiya!
And with that, Kakuranger defeated the yokai Dorotabo. However...
What? I thought you were into samurai dramas. Now it's pro wrestling?
Stop it! Please!
Stop it!
I guess Jiraiya's TV obsession really is beyond help!
Although, I can't deny it! I love TV, too!
Am I on?
Hey! What's going on?! Hey!!
To be continued... Hey! What's going on?! Hey!!
To be continued...
