Grandpa and Grandma Turn Young Again (2024) s01e01 Episode Script
Grandpa and Grandma and the Sports Festival
1
Say, Grandma.
Anything you wanna do
if you turned young again?
That's so out of the blue, Grandpa.
We were poor as a young couple,
couldn't even get us a honeymoon trip
Sorry about that.
That's fine, Grandpa.
Just us talking nonchalantly like this
is more than enough for me.
By the way, the apple tree we planted
after we got married should be here somewhere.
We planted it to celebrate our wedding.
It's been over 60 years now, eh
The one who once split during a typhoon.
Eh, which one, again?
Oh, 'tis the one.
It snapped in the middle
during Typhoon Mireille.
I thought it was done for.
Such is the power of nature.
What's wrong, Grandma?
Grandpa, look at that.
A golden apple
We were so poor and busy,
as we got older
Yet, Grandma still remained by my side.
I'm sure she must have
a lot she wanted to do
She must want to wear her favourite
clothes and stroll around town
I'm sorry
G-G-Grandma!
Ine, wake up!
I'm turning young again!
G-Grandpa
Grandpa?
We're going on a honeymoon trip, Grandma!
A STORY ABOUT A GRANDPA AND GRANDMA
WHO RETURNED BACK TO THEIR YOUTH
EPISODE 1: GRANDPA AND GRANDMA
AND SPORTS FESTIVAL
Grandpa and Grandma and Sports Festival.
Grandpa, Grandma, you there?
There you are.
Oh, Mino.
What's up?
Been a while.
Have you been well?
It's me, Grandpa Shozo.
And Grandma Ine.
No, no, no!
You look good in that hair,
so don't cut it, Grandpa!
My bangs are in the way, though
But I guess I should do
what my granddaughter told me.
Grandma, she's never
been this spoiled before.
Is that so?
Hey, Grandma.
Yes?
Can I take Grandpa for me?
No can do.
Dad.
Grandpa and Grandma
turned young again.
Huh?
What are you even saying, MIno?
DO THE HANDSOME GRAVURE IDOL POSE!
DO THE HANDSOME GRAVURE IDOL POSE!
Do the handsome gravure idol pose!
DO THE HANDSOME GRAVURE IDOL POSE!
Shozo and Ine have been
absent these days
Ine just hurt her body, after all.
I guess it's just age.
It's kinda lonely to not be able to see
the mandarin luck couple again
in this park
Just as I was thinking of that
Perfect shot! All in one hit!
What's up with that appearance?
LOVE SHOZO
LOVE SHOZO
W-Will this do?
First time I seen blud lookin' like that.
Must be what they call a "stan".
Never thought those two
would turn young again.
Well, we sure can't expect young girls
flocking 'round us anymore.
Not with our faces.
Mr. Kokichi, Mr. Matsunosuke.
Care for a cuppa?
Mrs. Ine Thank you
My bad, Mrs. Ine!
It's fine.
Let me wipe it for you.
Gosh, how careless of ya.
I'll get a towel, so stay there.
SYSTOLIC BLOOD PRESSURE 300
I think I'm havin' a heart attack
SYSTOLIC BLOOD PRESSURE 300
Me too
SYSTOLIC BLOOD PRESSURE 300
SHOZO
I can't afford to leave this house.
Pops, listen to me.
It can't hurt to stay with
my family in my house!
Even if my son asks me,
I still won't budge.
But both your bodies are
at their limits!
I'm just worried of you two
Our ancestors have protected
this land for hundreds of years.
I get where you're coming from,
but I can't just abandon this legacy.
Sorry about this, Kaede.
Don't worry about me.
How about you?
Oh, me? I'm fine.
As long as I can stay by his side,
anything will do.
THE NEXT DAY
THE NEXT DAY
Mom.
I brought the ingredients
you asked the other day.
Mom sure is super experienced.
Nothing can disturb
the love between the couple
Oh, welcome, Kaede.
Grandma's at a community centre
meeting right now.
Well, sorry about this.
I thought you already knew
Me too.
I'm a little distraught
Let me wash my hands.
Sure.
Never expected Dad to be
that handsome
Wh-Wh-What do I do?!
Calm down, Kaede!
I need to tell Yoshiaki about this!
What's wrong, Mrs. Ine?
You look pale.
No
HUNCH EX
I just have a bad feeling
HUNCH EX
LIKE MOTHER LIKE DAUGHTER
FELLOW HANDSOME IDOL OTAKUS
I still can't believe it even now
I suppose you can't.
So that's what you meant by playing
boyfriend and girlfriend with Grandpa.
I mean, unlike you, he's so kind
He got the vibe, too.
It was truly heaven on earth, so
Kaede!
Why didn't you tell me sooner?
I wanted to have you see them first
since you'd get confused.
See, I just told you now, didn't I?
Secret Technique: Grandpa Barrier!
Now, now, Mino.
You're gettin' too clingy.
Hey, Mino! Granddaughter x Grandpa
is forbidden even in fiction!
Whatcha on about, Kaede?
Oh, this much won't hurt, come on!
No, you can't!
Dad's here too!
My heart's yours and yours only, Grandma!
Let's talk later, Grandpa.
We'll go home for now.
I'll tell Takahiro and the others.
I see. Come again soon.
Yoshiaki, are you doing okay at work?
I'm fine, really.
Don't worry about me.
No one would praise you
once you've grown up.
You've done well.
I'll come visit again.
Grandma, pat me too.
Sure, sure.
Yer a good kid, Mino.
Hey, we're going home.
We have a full house of pretty girls.
YOU'LL DO ENOUGH JUST BY SEEING ME
YOU'LL DO ENOUGH JUST BY SEEING ME
You'll do enough just by seeing me.
SORRY

INTER-TOWN SPORTS FESTIVAL DAY
SOUTH TOWN
NEIGHBOURHOOD ASSOCIATION
This year
I heard the South Town could barely participate
with all the members above 50
This surely
is gonna be a total win for us North Town.
NORTH TOWN COUNCIL PRESIDENT HEISUKE IGARASHI
is gonna be a total win for us North Town.
NORTH TOWN HIGH SECOND YEAR,
SOCCER CLUB ACE SHOTA IGARASHI
You're not asking me to get serious
against old geezers, are you?
NORTH TOWN HIGH THIRD YEAR,
NORTH TOWN HIGH THIRD YEAR,
If you run at top speed,
BASEBALL CLUB CAPTAIN DAIKI IGARASHI
it'll be more than a lap gap, so don't.
And, well, here's how it goes.
My grandsons will be up against you.
Well, I never think this will be
a proper game, either.
Let's just have fun.
SOUTH TOWN COUNCIL PRESIDENT SANO
SOUTH TOWN COUNCIL PRESIDENT SANO
Actually, we have a trump card this year.
Oh, who's that?
They are Mr. and Mrs. Saito,
the apple farmers!
The Saitos? You mean Shozo?
You sure say bad jokes sometimes.
Oh, if it isn't Mr. Igarashi from up north!
RUMBLE
Hello! We're Saito!
Are you Mr. Saito's grandkids?
No, it's me, Saito.
BUFFED UP
BUFFED UP
Buffed up.
BUFFED UP
SOUTH VS NORTH TUG OF WAR
Now, for the tug of war game!
Who will win the game?!
No way I can't believe
Even though we and the supposedly
strong Grandpa are all here
The South are holding up,
but they're getting dragged little by little!
We'll lose at this rate!
That's too embarrassing!
We can just support them like normal.
Just for once, Ine.
They can win if you do this.
G-Grandpa and the gang
Do your best!
The South wins!
SOUTH TOWN NEIGHBOURHOOD ASSOCIATION
SOUTH TOWN NEIGHBOURHOOD ASSOCIATION
The guys in this town sure are simpletons.
Such humiliation
SO GRANDPA LIKES STUFF LIKE THIS
SO GRANDPA LIKES STUFF LIKE THIS
So Grandpa likes stuff like this
Go for it, Daiki, Shota!
Let's make up for the tug of war, Shota!
You don't have to tell me!
That's the Igarashi brothers for ya!
Even if they falter a bit, they cover it up
with their brotherhood and athleticism!
Good, just keep running like that.
They're brothers who have been working
out together for over a decade.
They know each other's
body habits and rhythms!
Sorry, we're late by half a lap
Don't let us down, anchor!
All right, we've come so far!
Now for the winning run!
BRRRRR
What?!
What the heeeeell?!
The South's anchor runners, the Saitos,
aren't yelling at all!
It's hard to believe
their legs are tied together!
We've been together
for about 70 years now.
I can tell her movements
like the back of my hand.
Grandpa is matchin' his pace with mine.
Feels good.
I wanna keep runnin' like this!
THOOM
THREE-LEGGED RACE OF LIFE
SOUTH TOWN NEIGHBOURHOOD ASSOCIATION
Amazing!
SOUTH TOWN NEIGHBOURHOOD ASSOCIATION
She's not even looking at the basket!
The Saitos are the MVPs!
The South wins tremendously!
GLOOM
GLOOM
So
GLOOM
I guess we're just too ignorant of the world
GLOOM
If I can't even win this
countryside competition,
going to Koshien is but a distant dream
Darn
You made a mockery
of my adorable grandsons
Shozo You not only
stole Ine 70 years ago,
but also my grandsons' smiles!
Don't dwell on it!
We still have next year!
Mr. Heisuke.
Sorry about earlier
Oh, it's you, Ine.
You sure you don't want to be near Shozo?
Well, he's beyond my reach now.
He's gettin' too famous.
He's about to explode his belly.
YAY YAY
He's about to explode his belly.
How dare he
I made this for everyone to eat, though.
If you'd like, you can have it.
I see It's been 3 years
since Misako's passing, eh.
How time flies.
She was so selfish, leaving me
with our adorable grandsons.
She had to stick with me
Yer grandsons look just like young you.
Reminds me of when you confessed to me.
That's too much, Ine!
So that's why you'd been
picking fights with them.
Don't dwell on it too much, boys.
Come back next year better men.
Be seein' ya!
She's just too strong
No wonder Gramps couldn't win.
Say what?!
IN THE PAS
A WEEK AFTER THE SPORTS FESTIVAL
A WEEK AFTER THE SPORTS FESTIVAL
Geez Why do I have to do this?
Geez Why do I have to do this?
Shota, give this to the Saitos.
A token of gratitude for the other day.
Coming!
Oh, Igarashi?
Saito!
Wait, so
This is from my gramps
You came all the way to give this?
Thanks!
Anyway, come on in.
Grandma and Mom
are out shopping now.
Pardon the intrusion.
I came inside on a spur
Oh, so that's what happened
during the festival.
I never thought my classmate was
the granddaughter of the Saito couple
Right? It's a small world,
don't you think?
The popular girl in class
with both the boys and girls
The idol who'd even talk to me so brightly
to an introvert like me
I never thought I would be alone
with the person I admire like this!
I'll just fiddle with my smartphone
Hey, what games are you playing?
Uh, the one popular with the boys
Wow, what kind?
This one?
It's pretty fun, you know?
What do we do, Mom?
Mino has a boyfriend?! A husband?!
Calm down, Kaede.
Let alone getting married,
I'm sure they're still friends.
Give me a great-grandchild already!
I see. So that's why you
came all the way here.
Thank you.
No, you've been so helpful
to us during the festival.
The grandpa seems
pretty friendly and kind.
But
RUMBLE
RUMBLE
The other two are pressuring me so hard!
RUMBLE
It's like a parent and child meeting
Mino, so yer classmates with Igarashi?
Yeah, that's right.
He's pretty good at sports and study!
He's the soccer club's promising ace!
You're overpraising me, Saito!
I mean, it's the truth.
WHISPER
WHISPER
This might be good, right?
WHISPER
What do you think, Mom?
WHISPER
Even if he's good at sports or study,
WHISPER
it's his personality that counts!
So yer Shota?
Y-Yes, what is it?
Got anyone you like
What's wrong?
It's nothin'.
There was a fly on his cheek.
I'll excuse myself, then.
Come visit us again anytime.
Saito, huh
He's still kinda distant,
but so cute.
Feels like they've just become friends.
Uh, he left already.
I wish we could talk some more
What's wrong, Grandpa?
No
THE SECRET ONLY GRANDPA KNOWS
THE SECRET ONLY GRANDPA KNOWS
Forget it.
THE SECRET ONLY GRANDPA KNOWS
GRAMPS, SEND ME ON ANOTHER ERRAND NEXT TIME
GRAMPS, SEND ME ON ANOTHER ERRAND NEXT TIME
Gramps, send me on another errand next time.
HUH? SURE
HUH? SURE
Huh? Sure
No way!
So Grandma proposed first?!
It was a rare love marriage
in the old days.
So, how did you reply, Grandpa?
I always adored Grandma too.
So I answered, "Gladly."
Even though the era didn't allow it.
My father, your great-grandfather,
was old-fashioned.
He was going to match me up with
the daughter of one of his own friends.
No way
So you couldn't be in love
with your own crush?
No.
Unlike today,
there were things to consider,
like family background.
So what did you do?
Well
I traded blows with my father.
Huh?
One time, I even considered eloping
But I managed to pull through
with Grandma's support.
She was so cool back then.
No kidding! What was she like?
Grandpa, that's
She called the daughter
that Father introduced to me
And said, "I won't let you have my lover!"
Wow, so cool!
Well, she had another person she liked.
So she obediently backed down.
So, Grandma
Imagine I'm your love rival.
Can you reenact
what you said back then?
Huh? I can't do that nowadays.
Please! Just the gist of it!
Grandpa's lookin' at me
with hopeful eyes
Oh, well.
This is for my grandchild.
Gotta suck it up!
SQUISH
Mino, don't ya lay hands on my lover!
I love Grandpa,
but I love you too!
Grandpa, please stop Mino!
HUG
JEALOUS
I'm glad I married her
JEALOUS
NEXT TIME: GRANDPA AND GRANDMA'S CHILDREN
Whatcha hidin'?
I ain't!
It's just gettin' chilly
Oh, you changed the topic.
Say, Grandma.
Anything you wanna do
if you turned young again?
That's so out of the blue, Grandpa.
We were poor as a young couple,
couldn't even get us a honeymoon trip
Sorry about that.
That's fine, Grandpa.
Just us talking nonchalantly like this
is more than enough for me.
By the way, the apple tree we planted

Yet, Grandma still remained by my side.
I'm sure she must have
a lot she wanted to do
She must want to wear her favourite
clothes and stroll around town
I'm sorry
G-G-Grandma!
Ine, wake up!
I'm turning young again!
G-Grandpa
Grandpa?
We're going on a honeymoon trip, Grandma!

Let alone getting married,
I'm sure they're still friends.
Give me a great-grandchild already!
I see. So that's why you
came all the way here.
Thank you.
No, you've been so helpful
to us during the festival.
The grandpa seems
pretty friendly and kind.
But
RUMBLE
RUMBLE
The other two are pressuring me so hard!
RUMBLE
It's like a parent and child meeting
Mino, so yer classmates with Igarashi?
Yeah, that's right.
He's pretty good at sports and study!
He's the soccer club's promising ace!
You're overpraising me, Saito!
I mean, it's the truth.
WHISPER
WHISPER
This might be good, right?
WHISPER
What do you think, Mom?
WHISPER
Even if he's good at sports or study,
WHISPER
it's his personality that counts!
So yer Shota?
Y-Yes, what is it?
Got anyone you like
What's wrong?
It's nothin'.
There was a fly on his cheek.
I'll excuse myself, then.
Come visit us again anytime.
Saito, huh
He's still kinda distant,
but so cute.
Feels like they've just become friends.
Uh, he left already.
I wish we could talk some more
What's wrong, Grandpa?
No
THE SECRET ONLY GRANDPA KNOWS
THE SECRET ONLY GRANDPA KNOWS
Forget it.
THE SECRET ONLY GRANDPA KNOWS
GRAMPS, SEND ME ON ANOTHER ERRAND NEXT TIME
GRAMPS, SEND ME ON ANOTHER ERRAND NEXT TIME
Gramps, send me on another errand next time.
HUH? SURE
HUH? SURE
Huh? Sure
No way!
So Grandma proposed first?!
It was a rare love marriage
in the old days.
So, how did you reply, Grandpa?
I always adored Grandma too.
So I answered, "Gladly."
Even though the era didn't allow it.
My father, your great-grandfather,
was old-fashioned.
He was going to match me up with
the daughter of one of his own friends.
No way
So you couldn't be in love
with your own crush?
No.
Unlike today,
there were things to consider,
like family background.
So what did you do?
Well
I traded blows with my father.
Huh?
One time, I even considered eloping
But I managed to pull through
with Grandma's support.
She was so cool back then.
No kidding! What was she like?
Grandpa, that's
She called the daughter
that Father introduced to me
And said, "I won't let you have my lover!"
Wow, so cool!
Well, she had another person she liked.
So she obediently backed down.
So, Grandma
Imagine I'm your love rival.
Can you reenact
what you said back then?
Huh? I can't do that nowadays.
Please! Just the gist of it!
Grandpa's lookin' at me
with hopeful eyes
Oh, well.
This is for my grandchild.
Gotta suck it up!
SQUISH
Mino, don't ya lay hands on my lover!
I love Grandpa,
but I love you too!
Grandpa, please stop Mino!
HUG
JEALOUS
I'm glad I married her
JEALOUS
NEXT TIME: GRANDPA AND GRANDMA'S CHILDREN
Whatcha hidin'?

It's just gettin' chilly
Oh, you changed the topic.
