AISubs v3.5
Today we'll do that hand gesture.
What?!
In a world of hand gestures that requires delicate and bold movements,
the members stand up and struggle.
But then...
You're doing a hand gesture right now, right?
We're going to have you show it to the kids.
Knowing that the kids will show their hand gestures, they panic.
There are 14 types of animals.
Will the members be able to complete their hand gestures by 6 PM?
What?
What is it?
It seems like that's what's going on.
What?
Do your best!
What?
What is it?
It's not like that.
It's a work called "On the Earth".
"On the Earth".
Take a look at it.
The presentation is "On the Earth".
What kind of shadow is it?
I thought it was scary.
I chose this one, too.
What's this?
A dolphin.
It's starting.
A bird?
A bird!
A penguin!
A rabbit!
A fox!
It has a good tail.
It's amazing!
It's alive!
A turtle!
It's a turtle!
A turtle is cute!
It's amazing!
It's like this.
It's alive!
This is amazing!
It's a turtle!
It's amazing!
"On the Earth" is a grand story about animals on Earth.
Members must play 14 different animals according to the images on the screen.
We'll all do a few different things and you'll have to memorize the "ondias" we arranged for you by 6 o'clock.
We'll all have to play "penguin island" for you.
As you can see, Sensei has thought of five roles for Nakamata.
The other members will also have to play four roles.
This is going to be tough!
First up is "wataridori".
Like "penguin island", this is also an important animal that everyone has to master.
Learn it well!
"Wataridori" is just a cross.
Yes.
Okay, Ishii-kun, can you show us how you do it?
Okay!
It's hard!
He's losing it!
His posture is weird!
You want to put your hand like this, bent like this, somewhere in your movement.
Somewhere?
Like this, right?
Yes, like this is somewhere in your movement.
It's really beautiful!
From now on, we will practice for the actual performance.
It is very important not to show your head.
Come closer to the screen and try to hide it.
Can you see the bird?
I can't see it.
Hide your head.
Don't show your thumb either.
I can't see it.
Yes, hide your head.
I will become a kindergarten kid.
Ma'am, it's a little different.
Try to bend the joint at the base of your finger.
Yes, like that.
And who is this?
Me!
The joint at the base of your finger bends like this.
Yes, like that.
Don't show your head or thumb.
Fly flexibly.
And you have to actually move.
If you spread your legs too much and step on it, you won't be able to move.
Is that so?
Wow!
I might really become like this.
I'm scared.
It's hard!
Like this?
Yes, like that.
I'm scared!
Can you teach me more and more?
Can you teach me how to teach rabbits?
Yes, rabbits and rabbits.
The rabbit is Nakamata and the rabbit is Mori.
From now on, they will speed up their teaching methods.
Hook it like this.
And at the base of your index finger...
No, from the back, from the bottom.
Hook it like this.
And hook it with your index finger and thumb.
Yes.
If you adjust the angle like this, it's a rabbit.
Oh!
Yes.
Oh, rabbit!
Rabbit!
First, the back.
Yes.
Rabbit, rabbit.
Around here.
Yes, like that.
For the rabbit, hook it like this with your index finger.
Like this.
And your ring finger like this.
And...
Oh, sorry.
Hook it with your middle finger.
Hook it up to here.
Hook it like this.
Yes, like that.
And adjust the angle like this.
A little more.
Oh, it's hard!
Rabbit!
And rabbit.
Yes, yes.
Ah, you did it.
You can change it.
Oh, it seems like the rabbit and rabbit are doing well.
And when the rabbit comes out...
At this time, the members who can't use their screens are...
It seems like they are self-training in front of the camera.
What are you going to do with this?
I feel like it's going to come out of here.
Yes, it's the bending point.
Oh, it doesn't match.
That's right.
Make it invisible.
Make it a shadow.
This is difficult.
The beak will definitely be visible.
Hey, Ichikawa, you don't look too happy. What's wrong?
I can't do it!
It's like...
My fingers are stiff...
And the chicken...
I can't do it! What should I do?!
It's all chicken, but I don't like chicken!
No, no, you have to get used to it or you'll be in trouble!
Now, let's see how the witch, who plays the fox, is doing.
Is this okay?
Yes, yes, yes, that's fine.
You should stand with this ear.
Eh?! This is difficult!
I can't stand!
Ring finger, little finger, ring finger...
Can you move your ring finger that easily?
Well, well, you know, I've been doing this for a long time.
That's right, I definitely can't move my ring finger.
Cross, cross, cross, cross...
Right?
Right?! Right?! Not right?!
Not at all?!
Right?!
Okay, now practice that a little.
Okay, who hasn't learned it yet?
I can't walk...
I don't know how to do it at all.
Ah, I'm sorry.
But like...
Like...
It's only for one day...
Like, I know I'm not good at practicing...
But like, as much as I can...
I want to make it look like it's real.
Over! I don't mind if you don't lose!
And now, for the mouse, we have Morito and Iriyama.
Really?
Right?
Yes.
Okay.
This is the front leg.
This is the ear.
Yes, yes, yes.
As much as you can, stick it here.
Ouch, ouch, ouch!
The tail comes out from the bottom.
This is the tail, yes, yes, yes.
And with this, you don't have to move your legs like this,
but you can move your head when you move it.
Can you do it?
It's difficult.
I can't move my little finger freely.
Oh, no!
It's difficult.
I can't move my tail, either.
It's far away.
Isn't my hand weird?
Hey, hey, are you giving up already?
Hang in there! The kids are waiting for you!
It's surprisingly difficult for Abe to act out a crab.
Just use your thumb.
Yes, yes, yes.
Yes, yes, yes. Hide your head.
Hide your head.
Oh, that's good, that's good.
This way you can clearly see the eyes and legs,
so you can tell it's a crab right away.
And if you can do it,
cross your index and middle fingers.
Yes, yes, yes.
It's really difficult.
You can do it once, so let's do it with scissors.
Scissors.
Scissors and money.
Either one is fine.
Yes, yes, yes.
Like this?
Yes, and you move like this.
Like this?
Yes, yes, yes.
Oh, good, good.
Perfect.
Everyone does it like me, but...
I thought you were close.
It's a little...
It's difficult.
What's difficult?
Doing this with scissors and this movement is difficult.
This is my specialty.
I'll show you how to do it.
Like this.
Oh, good for you.
You can afford it.
I can't afford it.
Actually, I can't afford it.
I can't do it the most.
That's right.
It's a little...
Practice before you mess up.
There's no time until night.
We're all going to come out alternately.
At that moment, we're all going to take the lead alternately.
That's why we all have to make a beautiful shape.
Yes.
Yes, keep doing it and ask me questions you don't know.
Yes, thank you very much.
Yes, you don't have time to rest, so go ahead.
Learn all creatures and finish them with your own beautiful shadows.
After this, we'll start practicing for the real thing on the theater screen.
The Pook Children's Theater, where the real thing will be held, is in the basement of the rehearsal room on the second floor.
What is it?
You're so cute.
We only have two hours left.
What?
We only have two hours left?
Oh, my God.
I was so focused that I forgot about it.
We only have two hours left.
I know.
The current time is four in the evening.
There are only two hours left until the show.
Will they make it in time?
How do you like it?
It's amazing.
It's like a movie theater.
We made it!
What's this? It's so cute!
This is the first modern puppet show in Japan, which opened in 1971.
Puppet shows all over the world are held 250 times a year.
It's a special place where children's dreams come true.
Let's check the recording.
Is the music playing?
Yes.
Please prepare for "usagi no hito".
First of all, according to the video, which is called "batari",
they check the movement of the animals they play.
First of all, "usagi no hito", please look at the picture carefully.
From here.
You can do it with your hands first.
You can do it with your hands first. Then "usagi no hito".
From the top.
Can you go back a little bit?
Yes, yes, that's good.
Then you go down this mountain.
"kousagi", "kousagi", let's jump out of here.
I'm sorry. Let's do it from the front.
There is a communication there.
"kitsune" is already in here.
"kitsune" is in here.
Above the sea. More this way.
"mizudori" is also above here.
kame
"usagi" is in the opposite direction. It's difficult.
"kani" is also coming out of here.
In the water.
Next two people.
"temai" is coming out.
"tomasomi" is also coming out of the water.
"kazumi" is coming out of the water.
"yamashita" is also coming out.
Yes, yes. At first you hide in the mountains.
You should come out from here.
- Not from your head. - Not from your head.
If it's a dark place, it doesn't matter.
Film it properly.
Film it in a good shape.
Match it with how you move.
Listen up, everyone.
You can't rush out of the screen.
You have to be conscious of showing your shadow for as long as possible.
Everyone is in a hurry.
To put it simply, you have to look away from your own shadow.
Once you're completely out of your own shadow,
you can look away for the first time.
- Yes. - Yes.
The tension rises.
The board is narrowed down.
The teacher's words are heated up.
I can't help it.
I suddenly feel uncomfortable.
I can't do anything about it.
I'm in trouble.
I can't do it.
- I'm in trouble. - I'm sorry.
- Let's do it one more time.
Let's do it one more time.
Okay, the rabbit has come out.
You can come out now, two rabbits.
Let's hang in there a little more.
Go up the mountain.
Okay, I'm going to fly.
Oh, your own head!
What are you putting out?
Hey, don't put out your head.
Everyone, put out the best shape you can put out.
Calm down.
They can't act very well.
Their lack of self-confidence takes away the smiles from the members' faces.
Then they practice over and over again.
But they can't feel any sign of improvement in their seriousness.
And the time went around 5:15.
It's the last investment rehearsal in terms of time.
Mr. Goto looks at them with severe facial expressions.
Meanwhile, in the lobby, the audience began to gather, looking forward to the performance.
Camera, camera, camera!
Thank you all for today!
How did it go?
Well, somehow.
Goto-sensei somehow agreed with him.
But today's performance...
I don't know if they'll be able to open up in a good way.
If we just give up like that, it might be a little difficult.
Yes.
And finally, the audience began to gather.
From the age of 3 to 5, 62 children and their parents gathered at the venue.
And soon it will be 6 o'clock.
After this, the audience finally began to open up!
It's finally time.
Yes, yes.
We're going to show you what's going on in the audience's seats.
What?!
Can we see it?
Here it is!
It's here!
No way!
There's a lot of people!
But there's also a mother.
There's only children.
How cute!
Shall we go?
Yes.
Well, we're usually standing in front of more people.
If we get scared like this, we won't be able to go any further.
That's right.
Then we'll do what we always do!
Yes!
One, two...
We're always grateful!
One, two...
Let's say it together!
A.k.a. B48!
Thank you!
There's no need for that!
I'm looking forward to it!
But we're united!
Yes, of course!
Thank you!
Now, whether you cry or laugh, it's the real thing!
Show us the results!
I'm nervous...
We'll start the art "handshadow show" that we spent a lot of time on!
Everyone, please enjoy it until the end!
Ah! We had such a goal!
First of all, the teacher's performance.
The children are absorbed in the moving turtle animals.
The teacher's shadow grabbed the children's hearts in no time.
Now it's your turn. Don't disappoint the children.
By the way, what kind of animals do you like?
Rabbit, Rabbit, Tilyan, Snail, Elephant
From now, the six children who challenged shadow for the first time will show off the show of "on the earth".
Thank you for watching.
(laughs)
One, two... Thank you very much!
What kind of animals did you see?
Rabbits!
Rabbits! Rabbits!
Squirrels! Squirrels!
Birds! Birds!
But you were trying your best, weren't you?
Sometimes you get nervous and it comes out.
Sometimes you get nervous and it gets better.
Right?
But I hope you got something out of it.
It was fun!
What did you like about it?
Birds!
Everything was fun!
Yeah!
What did you like about it?
Squirrels!
Rabbits! Rabbits!
Squirrels! Rabbits!
Birds!
Birds! Birds!
It was fun!
What did you like about it?
It was fun!
I won!
Good job!
It was fun!
You found animals and squirrels for me.
Yeah!
You found a lot of animals for me.
I'm happy I could become a singer.
Everyone on the stage...
Their faces were...
They were crazy.
They looked like they were about to cry.
Like, "Come on! Come on!"
But...
But... The results were alright.
We had fun.
How many points did we get?
100 points!
Sweet!
I feel like we got 100 points.
Let's feel like we got 100 points!
Yeah!
Full marks!
You didn't get 100 points, but you did a good job!
Good job!
Next week, these six people will visit the Nemotsudagawa Shizuhakkei.
