Akko!
Here I come!
Mom, how are you doing? It's been three days since we arrived at Grandpa's.
I've been having fun, swimming every day and combing the beach for shells and crabs.
The mountain behind Grandpa's house is full of natural beauty. The air is clean, and we're all having a great time!
Grandpa told me that you used to spend the summer here just like I'm doing right now. Okay, I got to go. -Akko.
The Ocean, The Curse, and The Summer Festival!
Grandpa!
What is that sound?
Oh, that. They're practicing for the festival.
Aha, there's a summer festival tomorrow night!
Go back inside, and your Grandma can get you something cold to drink.
Hey, Taisho!
You're going fishing?
Yup! I'm going to catch a huge snapper!
Yes, a huge snapper!
This place looks good...
Taisho, why don't you go to that island over there instead?
The island...?
Hmm...that's cool. Okay, bring my boat!
No one's going there!!
That island is off-limits.
How come?
An ocean god lives on that island.
An ocean god?
He protects the ocean and the fishermen. He assumes the shape of a white dolphin.
A white dolphin?
Yes. No human is supposed to set foot on that island. It has been the tradition.
What if someone breaks that rule?
The white dolphin becomes a white dragon, and it will place a curse on you.
Therefore, you should never go there.
Wow, that is beautiful!
I'm going to do it!
No, it's my turn!
This is not for little kids!
Guys, don't fight!
This is a tough one...
Oh, fireworks. How nice.
Good evening!
Hi, Toku-san.
I brought some turban and abalone shells for the kids from Tokyo.
Thanks.
Abalone? Why, these things are still moving...!
What, to that island?!
Shhhh! Keep your voice down!
Are you serious?
I don't think we should... what about the dragon's curse?
It's only a superstition. Don't you want to see the white dolphin?
Guys! Grandpa is going to bake some shellfish!
Don't tell anyone about this.
Ok.
I think there's a white dolphin. It isn't just folklore.
The fisherman who came this evening told us that he's seen one before.
If we can catch the dolphin...
Catch the dolphin?!
Tomorrow night, the summer festival starts. We can make a lot of money by showing the white dolphin at the festival.
That's not a bad idea.
I hate having to go in the middle of the night.
We're really going?!
If you don't want to go, that's fine too!
No, I'm going with you!
Okay, guys! Here's our plan...
Going or not... what could they be talking about? I smell a secret...
What are you doing here!
Where's the bathroom?
My! What a fantastic day!
What do you want to do today?
Let's explore the town!
Explore?
Yup, let's see what's around here.
Sure!
Hurry up! No one can see us!
Hurry!
I get it! They were talking about visiting the island last night! Ha, this is big news!
You've got such heavy-duty gear.
I can't swim, so... just in case I'm tossed out of the boat...
I wonder if we're going to be OK.
The white dragon's curse...
Stop it!
Use your head, guys. No dolphin can change into a dragon.
Maybe you're right...
Look, they're preparing for tonight!
Grandpa!
Are you getting ready for the festival?
Yes, we're going to have a dance here tonight.
Dance?
Really?!
Yes. You should come and dance.
We sure will!
I got some news!
Chika-chan?!
I've seen it! I know Taisho's and the guys' secret!
Huh?
What did you see?
Tada!! I know the secret!
What's the secret?!
It's the island.
What!!
I don't believe it!
It's up to you if you want to believe me or not.
I saw with my own eyes that those four boys were going to the island on a boa...
Huh?
What should we do?
They really went there?!
I wish the white dragon's curse falls upon them!
Chika-chan!
While I wouldn't mind seeing a white dolphin, seeing a white dragon would be more exciting!
Chika-chan, don't tell anyone about this, okay?!
How come? This is big news!
Listen to me! That island is sacred to the townspeople.
If they discover that those boys went there, it will create a big commotion!
Grandpa will have to take full responsibility.
I'm not very good at keeping secrets.
Chika-chan!
Yes?
If you feel like walking to Tokyo by yourself, go head and tell everyone.
No, no, no, no, no, no!
Then, you know what you should do.
Okay, I don't know anything about Taisho and the boys going to the island.
Moko, could you keep an eye on her?
OK!
I'll be on the shore to see what I can find.
Later!
Let's explore the island.
I cannot believe they did that!
If there's a white dolphin, it must be in the cove. Let's look in there.
It looks kind of creepy around here.
Whew, it's just a bird!
Let's go.
What are you two doing?
Nothing.
Have you seen Taisho?
I know Taisho is...
How odd.
They really went... after what Grandpa had told them.
They all heard Grandpa talk about the white dragon last night.
The reason why we can enjoy these shellfish is because the white dolphin looks after us.
He protects the local fishermen.
Protects?
Yes. A long time ago, a white dolphin appeared along the shore and warned us about an approaching storm.
After that, we left the island and the dolphin free in return.
Tomorrow's festival is partly to give thanks to the ocean god.
Those boys have no respect for the ocean god or the townspeople. I have to get them out of there, now!
Tekumaku Mayakon Tekumaku Mayakon, I want to become a seagull!
It must be somewhere around here...
OK, pull the boat down there.
I'm still scared of the curse.
Hey, be strong!
Taisho, did you find it?!
Don't shout! He'll slip away!
There's a lot of food in the cove. I'm sure it will show up, sooner or later.
Ramipasu Ramipasu Ru Ru Ru Ru Ru.
Please forgive me as I'm here against the rule.
I really have to find them quickly. I don't want anything to happen to Grandpa.
Let me go! Leave me alone!
What happened? Where is everyone else?
I know where everyone is...!
Huh?
It looks as if a storm is brewing. I hope the kids aren't in the ocean.
I'm going to dive. Watch out for the dolphin.
Let me know if you see something in there.
Sure thing!
Is that the curse?!
It's getting dark around here.
The wind is picking up.
Hey, don't step on my foot!
It was a crab!
Please, get him off!!
Where are they?
Ouch, ouch, ouch!!
There they are! What is Taisho doing?
Oh, NO!!
Did you find him?
No, but I'm not giving up.
They're trying to catch the white dolphin! Shame on them!!
There he is!
Oh, look! Taisho!! He's over there!!
Over where?!
There really is a white dolphin here!
Give me the net!
Take it easy!
Hurry up!! Before he slips away!
There!
- Got him! - Hold on!!
We're going to be rich!!
I have to do something!
Tekumaku Mayakon Tekumaku Mayakon, I want to become a water demon!
If the net holds up, he's ours!
Right!
How will we explain where we caught him?
We could tell them we caught it while fishing.
Great idea!
Do you see anything on my back?
What are you doing here?
Don't let go!
We'll just have to wait until it tires out!
I'm good at waiting!
Taisho!! Help!! We saw a water demon!!
Water demons don't live in the ocean!
We could use more hands!
Like these?
I'll free you in a second! They can be such bullies!
If you really saw a water demon, you have to tell me!
I'm so scared!
Let's go back!
No one told us about a water demon.
Look! It's still caught in the net! We need to move closer!
Good!
We got him!
Oh no! I don't believe it!
What was that?!
Give us your hands!
Taisho, look!
What the...
It's a white dragon! It's just like what Grandpa said!!
It's the curse!
What are you doing here in this island?
We came to catch a white…
Shut up!
We were just curious if a white dragon really exists here. That's all.
I can see through your lie! Who threw the net on me? I know you did!
You made fun of the townspeople who believed in the story of the white dragon! You should be punished!
I'm sorry, I'm so sorry!!
We were going to return the dolphin to the ocean after the festival! Please believe us!!
Do you promise not to return to this island?
Yes, yes! We won't make fun of the townspeople anymore!!
We promise!
Don't hurt us!!
I promise, too!
Very well. I'll let you go this time. Leave this island at once!
Yes, sir!!
That worked great.
Tekumaku Mayakon Tekumaku Mayakon, I’d like to become a white dolphin!
Let's go, let's go!!
We lost an oar!
We cannot go back without it!
We're doomed!
Hurry, after him!
They're really scared.
Thank you so much!
It's a white dolphin!
Why did you help them after they treated you so bad?
I didn't think they were so bad. They came from the town across the cove, didn't they?
Really?
I used to be harassed by people who wanted to catch me because I'm white.
The townspeople were nice to me, and they chased those people who tried to catch me away from here.
The townspeople are grateful of you.
Why?
You warn them of approaching storms.
I only like to hide around that town's shore when a storm is approaching.
Both of you have been helping each other. That's very nice.
Do you want to come to the shore tonight? They are having a festival.
A festival?
It's a festival to thank you.
I'm embarrassed.
I know the people very well. I'll tell them about you.
Really?
If you hear a girl singing happily, it means that she was able to tell the people of your story.
A girl singing?
Yes.
I'll be here.
Okay, I'll see you tonight! Bye!
This is world-class tofu!
Geez, they're trying to make some money here.
Entrepreneurs!
I really didn't think I'd see a white dragon.
Stop talking about that! I'm still scared!
I feel as if I found something I almost forgot here in this town.
Huh? A water demon!
Hey, I'm not a water demon! I'm a fine lady!!
You scared us!
How was the island? Did you see a white dolphin? Did you see any ghosts?
Hey, how about taking me to that island tomorrow?
NO! No one is allowed on the island!!
What's wrong with you?!
Everyone, come over here! The dance is starting!
Let's dance together!
Let's go.
Sure, let's dance!
Yes, let's!!
Hey, wait for me!
Those boys are hiding something from me. I wonder if they really did see a white dolphin.
Are you ready? Go!
