Dan Da Dan (2024) s01e08 Episode Script

[slurping]
[lively music playing]
Hey.
-[Aira] Hmm?
-[Okarun] Huh?
We need to sort this out,
so I'm gonna start, 'kay?
I know you're still pissed
about the washtub.
Now, I'm not lookin' to be besties,
but I don't wanna be enemies.
What I did was outta line. Sorry.
Now it's your turn. Tell Okarun
you're sorry you made fun of him.
Do that, and we're even.
You're totally clueless, Momo Ayase.
I wouldn't hold a grudge
for dropping a washtub on me.
I came after you, and will continue to,
'cause I know you're a demon.
[Momo] Uh… [sighs]
[grunts]
How many times I gotta tell you?
You've got it all wrong.
I ain't no demon!
Quit bein' stubborn about it!
-If you're not, then what the hell is he?
-[splutters]
[Aira] When Takakura was fighting
the Acrobatic Silky,
he looked just like a demon.
You can't deny that.
-And her!
-[Seiko] What?
[Aira] Something's up with her.
'Cause she can't be your grandmother.
She's too young and way too hot!
What was that, now?
You're awfully sweet.
And Momo is a demon.
Shut it, ya old bag!
Why ya gotta complicate things?
Go on. Admit it.
Takakura and your hot granny are demons.
And you're the big boss demon
in charge of them.
And you're gonna use your demon powers
to destroy the world!
[bell dings]
[muffle yelling]
Huh?
Huh.
Blow my head off?
So now we see the real you!
I may not be able to beat you right now,
but I will one day,
and then you'll be toast!
Bring it on!
I'm gonna beat the crap out of you!
[Aira] You seem to not be listening to me,
but there's one thing you're forgetting.
I've been specifically chosen
by heaven to protect this world.
-'Cause my beauty's angelic!
-[bell chimes]
Thanks for having me over.
The somen was super yummy, ma'am!
Oh no you don't!
Get back here! I ain't done talkin' to ya!
You go, Aira. Get it!
-You'll kick Momo's ass someday.
-[Momo gasps]
Auntie Seiko's here rootin' for ya.
Oh, would you shut up already?
-I've had it with you takin' her side!
-[Seiko] Chill out.
Takakura?
Uh… Huh?
Even though you're a demon from hell,
you risked your life
to save me a bunch of times.
Why?
Huh?
[Momo] It's 'cause he's not a demon!
Uh…
I did what anyone would.
If someone's in trouble,
you try to help, right?
[Aira gasps]
Yeah, well… that's a good sign.
There's still a bit of human left in you.
Whatever hold she's got on you,
I swear I'll free you from it.
Mmm.
[gentle piano music playing]
[Okarun] Huh?
Uh…
Okay, what was that?
There's been a huge misunderstanding.
Or dying messed up her stupid brain.
[thinks] No, you can't feel this way.
Not when you're a human, and he's a demon.
It'll never work!

Oh, wait! Can't this be done
more normally?
-[chimes]
-[Turbo Granny] Oh, quit your whinin'.
This is how we get your ball back in ya.
STRIKE
[whimpers]
Game on, suckers!
THE POWER OF NESSIE
-Why are you trying to hit my ball?
-Pitcher's got the jitters! Hey, hey!
Hilarious. Ya cocky little punk.
I'm gonna put some extra stink
on my Turbo Granny ball!
And I'll be servin' it up extra hot!
[Seiko grunts]
-Seen more heat from a toaster!
-[Okarun wailing]
[Seiko grunts]
[magical chiming]
[screams]
[both groan]
Strike! You're outta there!
When you get a fast ball to the groin,
you gotta jump!
[Okarun wailing]
-[wheezing]
-Well? Is it back?
We did it!
-I got one of my balls back!
-[crowd applauding and whistling]
-[Momo] Whoo-hoo!
-[Seiko] Noice!
That pitch was high and inside, hon.
I'll hit the next one.
This one'll be smokin' hot.
Congratulations, Okarun.
Our one-ball wonder.
Don't say that!
[Momo] You got one back,
but we have no idea
where to start lookin' for the other one.
No idea.
Have you tried hittin' up
some occult forums yet?
You got a PC or a laptop, don't ya?
No, I don't. Can't afford those.
I need a job so I can get a new phone.
No way am I gettin' hosed
on one of them four-year-loans.
Well, see you at lunch on the roof.
Huh?
Uh… I, um…
I'm sorry, but I can't.
[Momo] Huh?
I sort of have to work on a report.
Oh. Then, like, after school?
We could hit a net café?
Sorry.
I'm kinda… busy.
Hmm.
Mmm, it's cool.
EPISODE 8
I'VE GOT THIS FUNNY FEELING
[Momo] Ugh, I'm starving.
Let's eat already!
Oh, what's up? Where's Okarun?
[Momo] Workin' on a report.
-At lunch? I should get him to do mine.
-He's hardcore schoolin'.
[Momo sighs]
Yeah, he might be.
But it still feels sketchy.
Sketchy? Like how?
Like how it feels
when you know someone's hidin' somethin'.
Oh, I get it. He's got another chick.
Nah, there's no way.
He's the last guy I'd suspect of that,
and he's got no reason to.
You know?
Or…
does he?
I'm gonna go get a drink. You want one?
Oh, I'll take a Pompy. Thanks, lady.
[both groan]
POMPY ORANGE
[sighs]
[thinks] What's the deal?
Why do I feel so… on edge?
Maybe I should peek into class C.
Nah. I shouldn't bother him.
He's busy workin' on that report.
Uh…
[gasps]
[whimpering softly]
14, 15, 16,
17, 18,
19, 20.
[gasps]
[panting]
I have to get stronger. [groans]
We still have to find my other ball.
Chances are another monster will show up,
and I have to be ready to fight it.
[grunting]
Push-ups, sit-ups, back work.
Squats, too, kid.
Five sets, 100 reps.
[thinks] I have to get stronger.
Way stronger.
If I don't, if I can't,
I'll put Miss Ayase in danger.
-[Aira] Takakura.
-[Okarun] Uh…
Huh?
Miss Shiratori.
Uh…
Is there something I can help you with?
[Aira] You're a demon, and I'm a human,
and I know this is totally wrong, but…
[Okarun sighs] I'm not a demon.
-This feeling, it's too strong!
-Huh?
-Stay still! This'll just take a second.
-Huh? But…
-Hey, now. Easy.
-Don't move!
-Just close your eyes!
-What? Why? Uh…
[lively electronic music playing]
-[wails]
-[Aira squeals]
What was that? Why are you dodging me?
-Why are you acting so weird?
-Me?
I'm not acting weird! You are!
Why are you trying to kiss me?
Because… because that's what you do
after you confess your love.
-You have to kiss!
-Huh?
I read it in a magazine!
It said a kiss is expected
after a confession!
It also said it's the guy's responsibility
to seal the deal.
VICTORY
[Okarun] Seal the deal?
[gasps] What kind of magazine
were you reading?
LOVE MANUAL
ADULTS ONLY
[Aira] Um… the one I found
in my dad's den.
Gah! You should not
be reading that magazine!
I'm confused. I thought
you were popular with all the guys.
How'd someone like you get
so romantically awkward?
-"Roman tongue sword"?
-I didn't say that!
-[Aira grunts]
-Get a hold of yourself!
This isn't how a popular girl's
supposed to behave!
Don't put popular and romance together.
Being popular is a lot of work.
Also, don't call me romantically awkward!
I just don't have much experience.
That's exactly what I was implying!
Everything you know
about relationships is wrong!
[gasps] I know
I've never felt this way before.
-I need to confess my love--
-[grunts]
Are you out of your mind?
You're acting like
you're possessed or something.
-Please control yourself!
-[Aira grunts]
-[yelps]
-[thump]
[gasps]
[breathing shakily]
[gasps]
[breathing shakily]
Mmm…
[whimpers]
[whimpers]
-[drink cartons fall]
-Huh?
[gasps]
Uh, I, uh…
-[Aira] Takakura.
-Huh?
Hurry up.
[gasps]
It's not that! I swear!
[Momo] You little turd.
[groans] Miss Ayase, please listen.
What you saw wasn't what you think!
[Momo] You said you had to work
on a report, but nope.
You were makin' out with that skank.
Your jacket's off, you're sweating.
And what are those cuffs?
Some S and M thing?
I can explain everything. Just listen!
I don't wanna hear any of your excuses.
-Were you lying about that report?
-Th… that was a lie. But look!
[Momo] I heard enough, then.
-Wait. Listen. There's a reason--
-I said I heard enough!
[moody electronic music playing]
[groans]
[girl] Where's my Pompy?
I gave it to the ground.
[Muko] Huh? What's that mean?
[girl] Were they sold out?
[Momo] Hang on a sec.
-I need to think.
-[both] Why?
[teacher] The mantis shrimp's punch is
80 kilometers per hour,
with about 150 kilograms of force.
If it were human-sized,
that'd be 700 tons.
It could knock out an elephant
with one punch.
And that's taking
water resistance into account.
Can you imagine the force
if the shrimp was out of the water?
That's still unknown.
-[shrieks]
-[Momo] Oh.
[teacher] Studies show that when a mantis…
Right there with ya.
Sometimes I feel like I gotta haul off
and punch somethin' too.
[Muko] Mmm, girlfriend's talkin'
to the shrimp.
[girl] She's got it pretty bad.
-[teacher] …it might injure its joints…
-[groaning]
[both sigh]
[groans]
-[yells]
-[girl] Huh?
-[babbling]
-[both] Ohh.
[Momo moans]
You thinkin' what I'm thinkin'?
Oh, definitely.
[both] She's been possessed
by the spirit of the shrimp!
[Okarun thinks] Miss Ayase's right.
There's no excuse for what I did.
I thought I'd look cool
if I got strong without her knowing.
But I lied to her.
It's my fault she's mad at me.
If I care about her, I have
to stop making excuses and get stronger!
Uh…
Huh?
Huh… Huh?
[sinister music playing]
-[Aira screams]
-[gasps]
[Aira] Hello? Where is everyone?
[gasps]
[grunts]
-I'm here!
-Oh, thank goodness.
What's going on? Where is everyone?
[Aira] I don't know.
Everyone just disappeared.
And where'd the sun go?
-Hang on. Did Momo Ayase do this?
-[gasps]
Come on. Let's go find her.
-[splashing]
-[gasps] Are you here, Miss Ayase?
Oh no.
[thinks] I've experienced
something just like this before.
[Momo grunting]
[sighs] No good.
All the windows here are stuck shut.
Ugh. And if it didn't suck enough,
now the water level's gettin' higher.
I wonder if Okarun's dealing
with this too.
Or maybe I'm the only one.
Oh, great! I'm thinkin' about him now
and I'm pissed off again!
Stupid freakin' liar!
[sinister music continues]
[water sloshing]
[gasps]
Now what?
[shudders]
Sounds like something's getting closer.
[gasping shakily]
[snarls]
A dinosaur? What the hell?
[cracking]
[creaking]
[growls]
[gasps]
[shudders]
[gasps]
[trembling]
[water sloshing]
[roaring]
[screeches]
[screeching]
[growling]
[gasps]
Damn it. Where the hell's Okarun?
[Aira] Wh… what was that sound just now?
I don't know. Sounded like an explosion.
Okay. You need to tell me what's going on.
Is this some kind of trap
you and Ayase set for me?
No, of course not.
I don't know why this is happening.
But I experienced this once before.
The sky was pitch-black,
a huge wall appeared,
and Momo and I were trapped.
What did you guys do to get out?
Oh, well, everything went back to normal
after we beat the alien.
Hang on. Alien?
You're saying they're real?
You're not messing with me, are you?
No, they're real.
In fact, they're even worse than yōkai.
But why are the aliens
trapping us here now?
Now? I don't know.
But, like, both times
Momo and I had contact with them,
they were after our genitals. [gasps]

[moans]
What's wrong? Get up!
[gasps] Huh?
[Okarun groaning]
[Serpoian 1] Nice to meet you
in your true form, male human.
Not you guys again.
[Aira] Hold it right there!
Don't any of you touch him!
Face me, if you dare!
Run for it! Hurry!
They want women to experiment on!
-[Serpoian 2] Ooh!
-[Aira gasps]
[yelps]
Miss Shiratori!
[Serpoian 2] This void is calibrated
so only humans
with high spiritual energy may enter.
[Serpoian 3] Is the apparatus
well functioning?
[Serpoian 1] We have returned
for your banana organ, human.
-We want it.
-[Serpoian 3] We want it.
-[Serpoian 2] We want it.
-[groans] Damn it!
Why is every paranormal thing
trying to take my junk away?
Because yours is exceptional.
[Serpoian 3] You are
in possession of a power
that surpasses our scientific technology.
[Serpoian 2] We wish
to secure your abilities.
[Serpoian 3] We will experiment on you.
[Serpoian 1] And transplant your abilities
into ourselves.
[groans] It's not even my power!
It's from a curse!
[coughs] I'm weak without it.
Weaker than the average human, in fact.
[sobbing] I swear!
[Serpoian 1] A curse?
How does that affect your banana organ?
[Okarun] I don't know!
[groans]
[thinks] I need to transform, but I can't.
[panting] I feel like when Miss Ayase
is using her power to contain the curse.
[Serpoians] Ooh!
[gasps]
Wh… wh…
[gasps]
[whimpers]
[Serpoian 1] Let us proceed.
[Serpoian 3] And perform the operation.
[Serpoian 2] We will
gently sever your banana.
Huh?
[screams] No!
I still only have one testicle!
[muffled gasps]
[all whimper]
[gasps]
[Serpoian 1 gulping]
[Aira] It seems I was correct.
I really am the chosen one.
-[crunch]
-Release Master Takakura. Now.
[lively music playing]
[song in Japanese playing]
Any resemblance to actual persons
or organizations in this work of fiction
(Ken Takakura included) is coincidental.
[Aira] I'm human, and he's a demon.
My feelings for him are wrong,
but I can't hold them back!
So I'll just beat the queen demon,
Momo Ayase, and rescue him.
[Momo] That ain't how it is, skank.
[Aira] Next time, "Merge!
Serpo Dover Demon Nessie!"
[Momo] Did you hear me?
