This way please everyone!
Here we are!
So... is it true we don't have to write...
an entry sheet or a curriculum vitae?
You're looking for a job, aren't you?
Yes
This way please!
What is this place?
It's a bit different to what you said, isn't it?
It is
Work! Work! Work!
Dogu-chan is a Youkai Hunter from the Jōmon period
Alongside me, Dokigoro, she fights off all manner of Youkai doki-o!
Ah... there's also the servant, Sugihara Makoto
But he's not important doki
Now... let's see what kind of Youkai we'll fight this time, doki-ne?
KODAI SHOUJO DOGU-CHAN
Episode 5: The Crabby Boss Youkai
Uh, Dogu-chan, those taste bad, doki-o
That smell!
Something stinks!
Huh? Stinks? Don't say it's our house!
Makoto, did a Youkai finally come to our house?
Makoto... be careful doki-o!
Welcome home!
Dad!
Were you surprised?
Dogu-chan too, welcome!
I just got home a minute ago
Can you stay for a while this time?
I'm leaving for Europe tomorrow
An Aztec excavation!
Again... selfish...
Dogu-chan
What about that strange smell from earlier?
Oh, by the way
We've got a rare guest
Maybe the Youkai?
Hey, whoa! It's been so long!
Makoto, you've gotten all handsome
Fact is, I got myself a job
No kidding! You made it! Congratulations!
Thank you
Who's this?
This is Yousuke-kun
He's Makoto's cousin
Not a Youkai doki?
Hello
I'm Dogu-chan, pleased to meet you
Well...
The Youkai?
Pardon the intrusion
Beautiful doki!
That's his girlfriend
Huh? Really?
To be honest, I owe my job to her
Eh? Found yourself a good girl, didn't you?
Amazing, Yousuke-kun
So you're an anime illustrator now?
Your childhood dream came true
No, the job's nothing to do with anime
It isn't?
Ah, I got it - you're a game designer
You said you wanted to do that
It's not that either
I see
Still, job-hunting these days is pretty harsh
Yes, it's been a good while since I finished school
Yousuke-kun, have you lost weight?
You're overdoing it, aren't you?
No, but I have to do my best for the company's sake
For the company, eh?
Makoto-kun, do you have a dream for your future?
Me? I haven't thought much about the future...
In that case, try working with us!
Well... Makoto's still in high school
Ah, of course, I mean as an apprentice
In these times of rampant unemployment,
so many young people have time and brain-power that's going to waste
Which is why our company started a hands-on work experience programme for students,
to give them job skills and practical experience before they go out into the world
Makoto, these people are strange
It's smelt funny since we got back
Uh-huh, it smells, it smells
Yes, it's kind of... fishy
Ah! I'm so sorry!
It's because we work with seafood
Not that!
Even so...
Crab?
Crab, isn't it?
Crab?
It's coming out
Yousuke, what's wrong?
Ah, it's alright, no problem
I think he's just exhausted
It's my responsibility to take him to hospital
Will it be alright?
Is she really taking him to hospital?
Doubtful, doki-ne
Right, Dokigoro, let's go
See? I knew it doki!
What is this place?
This is Yousuke-kun's company, right?
Uh-huh
OK... now doki!
What's going on?
Collapsed again
How unsightly
You! Clean up quickly
That woman...
... how cruel!
I knew it - she's not his girlfriend
It was a short spring
Dogu-chan, be careful doki!
[Incoherent speech]
Eh?
Yousuke-kun!
Yousuke-kun! Yousuke-kun!
Why? Why...
Is that Makoto-kun?
There's really something up with this company doki!
Makoto, get him out of here quickly
Yousuke-kun, let's escape!
Escape?
No way!
I finally got a job
How can I run away?
What the hell are you saying? This isn't the job you wanted to do!
Oi, youth! What's wrong with our job?
Nothing
I'm sorry.
You, what are you after?
Uh-oh! Somebody's coming doki!
Quick, let's hide doki!
Get in there!
Why doesn't anyone complain about this treatment doki?
It's different for us, not like you youngsters
We have families
We've all got our reasons
How can you be there for your family under these conditions?
You work until you collapse! Can you even see your family?
It's like Hell!
Hell doki!
You're right...
Ah, he's awake
Having no work, that's Hell
You... do you know what it feels like when nobody needs you?
This guy's scary doki
Yousuke-kun, what about your dream?
You had a job that you really wanted!
A job I wanted...
Right, Yousuke-kun - I envied you!
See? Wake up! Wake up, Yousuke-kun!
You wake up, Makoto-kun!
I didn't ask you to envy me
It's annoying!
Don't burden people with your needs
I'm grateful to this company
Why are you bothering me?
"It's society's fault"
"It's the politicians' fault"
"It's the schools' fault"
Even parents blame the teachers and the school
Everything is someone else's fault
But then, once you're out of school,
suddently it's "Find a job!"
"Support yourself!"
All of a sudden you're treated like an adult
I can't cope
How can you find a place for yourself?
Makoto... dreams... only make you disillusioned
Yousuke-kun... you've changed
Yes I've changed - we all have to change!
It's called growing up
Makoto, let's leave him doki!
Stop working!
Factory Manager Asakawa... inspection!
OK, let's Youkai Identification!
This is the Crabby Boss Youkai doki
Crabby Boss?
It makes people break their backs for next to nothing...
This Youkai's like a manifestation of exploitative capitalism
Capitalism?
Crab! Crab!
Workers!
This month our company is once more assured of an exponential growth in profits
It's all thanks to your exemplary work
For our company's sake, I urge you to work harder still!
Now for the company motto
If man doesn't work, he doesn't eat
A NEET will not eat
You should only dream while sleeping
Snap, crab!
What's that?
I am your humble servant
What?
Everybody listen!
Intruders have broken in
Whoever finds them will be rewarded!
Catch them by any means necessary!
Everybody, wait!
Manager, I have a request
What is it?
For the company's sake I've used up my energy...
That's right!
So why is it we can't go home?
We're grateful that you gave us work, but...
we can't worklike thisis andthe isitwhatwhen?
Eh? What did she say?
I understand that if the work is worthwhile, the pay isn't so important
And if it's not so worthwhile, we put up with it to make a living - I understand that too
But...
If you're stuck in a worhtless job...
and you still can't make a proper living...
there's no reason to contin... aargh!
You're annoying
Don't complain
WORK!
Noboro-tan, don't stress out
They say you can live without studying,
but there's no way you can live without working!
If it's so terrible and you hate it, just quit!
Excuse me? The reward for my information...?
Ah, you're the type I hate most!
So cruel doki!
He's collapsed!
Yousuke-kun!
Well, well! You came out by yourselves
You should also come to WORK!
Dogu-chan!
What happened?
If man doesn't work, he doesn't eat
A NEET will not eat
You bastard!
Makoto, let's escape!
Anyway, there must be a way to overcome the brainwashing...
Aah... that was dangerous!
I was almost brainwashed
Maybe I'm alright cause I'm a goddess... lucky!
Makoto, what are you looking at doki?
Yousuke-kun drew this for me when I was a kid
So he really could have been an animator
It's scandalous doki!
I was so proud of my cousin
Oi Makoto! I found a way to cancel the brainwashing doki-o!
Really?
Oi Makoto, we'll go through Hell to get there doki-o!
Follow me...
Let's go, let's go! Let's go to Hell!
Here you are
You're a real cutie
But that lot are so useless, I might shoot some more...
That's no good
This is dangerous, put it down
Yuki-tan, you're so gentle
Ah yes, this liquor's the good stuff alright!
Here you are
Ah, Yuki-tan, you're so considerate
Kani-tan, do you want some more?
I fancy a little bit of Yuki-tan!
You big silly...
Playtime's over!
Move it! On your feet!
Intruders in the factory! Close all exits!
Let me go!
Resistance is useless doki!
Set them free!
Boss, I kept you waiting!
Dogu-chan
You did it, Yuki-tan!
Stand up!
Since you like this place so much, maybe I'll let you work here
Hey, who told you to rest?
We've already caught the intruder, so there's no problem
She'll be working without any breaks!
Doki?
Now, Dogu-chan!
Let's go, Dokigoro!
OK, Docking!
Dogu-chan is here!
Hey there bikini-girl...
You've got a flirtatious look about you
Dirty old crab doki!
Why not be my girl?
Wait, Kani-tan...
Makoto, hurry it up doki!
Oh yeah!
Here
Don't tell me that book is...
'Capital' by the renowned Marx-sensei!
Dogu-chan, scanning!
You... you have that function?
Scanning complete!
Marx Beam!
Stop that!
If you do that, the workers will arise!
Huh? Yuki-tan?
Kani?
Huh? Some of the young people were unaffected by the Marx Beam!
Makoto!
Ah, that's right - use this!
The manga version of 'Capital'!
Now even the kanji-illiterate, liberal education generation can understand it!
Oh no! However young or dumb, they'll understand that!
Simplified Marx Beam!
Yuki-tan?
Huh? Don't act up like a spoilt brat
Everyone, get him!
Time to end this!
Everybody make way!
Dokidoki Wave!
Ack! Kani... kou... sa... argh!
My chest is full!
I thought I could finally give up my dream
But now I'm job-hunting all over again
That's a skillfully drawn hero doki
Tell me Makoto, do you have a dream?
What you want to be in the future, that kinda thing
Well, it's not decided yet
And there's no need to hurry
In your teens you can't decide on your future
Even in your twenties you can't see the future clearly
But I'll have to find a job some day, won't I?
Getting a job doesn't mean you're set for life, though
I went through a fair few jobs myself
Did you really?
Well, I've got to get up early tomorrow
You'll be on your own
Dogu-chan too!
I surprised you!
Good night!
I'm so surprised I'm going to sleep
He just does as he pleases
The future...?
Think about it tomorrow
Get some sleep now, think about it again tomorrow
Tomorrow?
Dogu-chan, I've seen something I shouldn't see!
Maybe it's...
Next time the Puppetmaster Youkai appears
It's scary, doki-o!
Dogu-chan Janken!
Jan... ken...
Rock!
Curry tastes better on the second day!
So long!
