AISubs v3.5
Don't you think your Japanese is wrong for using it so casually?
The theme of this episode is the changing Japanese identity.
What is the original meaning of "sugoi"?
How is it different from recent times?
If you don't learn the words of young people you care about now, you will regret it later!
I hope you have a fun time today!
"Sakusei"!
It's not "ogan"!
Today's special teacher is Mr. Machida Ken.
He is a professor of linguistics at Nagoya University and is a Japanese specialist.
His book "How to Pronounce Japanese Easily" is also a topic of discussion.
Before we start our lesson, we have a title for today.
Don't you notice something?
What is it?
Japanese is changing!
What does it mean?
It's a sign that Japanese is going to change.
Do you know what it means, Siu?
"Tsukene" in Japanese is wrong.
Do you know what it means, Yui?
"Manabanakya" in Japanese is wrong.
She is saying it in a cute way.
"Manabanakya" in Japanese is wrong.
"Yuppi"!
You will regret it later!
What do you mean?
"Regret" means regretting later.
"Later" is already in "regret".
So you don't need to say "later" again and again.
If I say it, it's correct.
Yes, I understand it well.
Now, in order to find out the true nature of Japanese, let's first look at the languages of the world.
Currently, it is said that there are about 7,000 languages in the world, but do you know how many of them are there in Japan?
Isn't it one?
It's not one.
Is it like respect language or something like that?
No, it's not like that at all.
In Japanese, yes.
Yes, what is it?
Three.
Then say three of them.
Katakana, Hiragana, and Suji?
That's right.
Suji?
I think it's only Japanese, but the correct answer is this one!
What?
There are nine of them, right?
Oh, Okinawan language?
There are many ways of thinking about it, but in an international organization like UNESCO,
these kinds of words don't work for each other.
Even if you hear Okinawan language, you can't understand it.
This is a different language.
That's how we recognize it and there are nine of them in Japan.
Is this the word that the Minister of Defense uses?
No, it's Yamato national language.
What is it?
That's old Japanese.
What?
Old Japanese.
What do you want me to do with you?!
What is it?
What do you want me to do with you?!
What is your strongest escape method?
There are 7,000 languages, but Japan is one of them, right?
Let's take a look.
Here it is!
You don't know the origin of it, do you?
Yes.
Japanese is very different from other languages.
Humans came from Africa.
So, they used one language in Africa and it spread all over the world.
So, all languages have one origin.
If you think about it now, about 10,000 years ago,
English, French, German, or Russian were all one language.
We know that.
What about Japanese?
We don't know it.
What do you mean you don't know it?
It has to be similar.
For example, if you compare French and Italian,
they are similar.
For example, in French, you say "fleur" when you talk about flowers.
Fleur.
What about talking about flowers?
Fleur.
In Italian, you say "fiore."
Fiore.
In Italian, you say "fiore."
I'm kind of angry.
I'm different from you all.
Me too.
It's similar.
For example, you say "caffè olè" in French.
"Light" is written there.
In Italian, you say "caffè latte."
Italian-like.
Latte.
It's similar.
It has to be similar like this.
If it's similar, it's the same origin.
Not a single Japanese word is similar.
For example, "mountain" or "river."
There are no other words that are pronounced in the same way.
Not even "letter."
This is also unusual.
You all remember Chinese characters, don't you?
It's hard, isn't it?
You use "hiragana" and "katakana."
You use three kinds of words.
There is not a single word like this in the world.
In China, you use all Chinese characters.
In Korea, you only use "hangul."
You only need to remember one.
In Japan, you have to remember three kinds of words.
Moreover, there are a lot of Chinese characters.
You remember Chinese characters and use "hiragana."
It's a great thing.
"Suki" in kanji, "suki" in hiragana, and "suki" in katakana are different ways of saying it.
The way you use the letters can change the atmosphere.
You can't say it like that in other words.
Where do you use "suki" like that?
"Suki" is an example. Don't use it like that.
From now on, we will explain the true meaning of the Japanese words you use.
It's sudden, but it's a problem.
Please make an awkward expression towards the camera.
Sayaka, Nana and Akarin will do it for you.
Let's do it together!
You look sad.
Nana, you look like that.
You're angry!
By the way, Sayaka, what kind of expression do you have?
I have an ugly expression.
You have an ugly expression.
What's that?
You have an ugly expression.
Next, Nana.
I'm like, "Oh, really?"
"Oh, really?" What kind of expression do you have? Say it again.
Oh, really?
She's just expressing her feelings.
She's just doing her best.
What about Akarin?
Oh, really?
"Oh, really?" Like you're not interested in her?
I see.
How about this one?
Please show us the correct answer.
Please show us your ugly expression!
Do you see it? That's her ugly expression!
You think I'm a professor or what?
That's her ugly expression!
She gets surprised and can't think of anything.
That's ugly expression.
Is it different from ugly expression?
Ugly expression is when you're really surprised.
Ugly expression is when you're surprised and can't think of anything.
Is it different from ugly expression?
Ugly expression is more surprising.
She gets a little disappointed and can't think of anything.
I see.
Her ugly expression is like, "Don't overdo it!"
Yes, that's for sure.
Is it different?
Based on that, let's have you three show us your ugly expressions one more time.
Go ahead!
What kind of expression is that?
But you have good taste.
The next question is for the two of you.
The second question of the Japanese quiz is...
Face the camera and bow.
What are you doing?
What do you mean?
What are you doing?
I'm glad I bowed like this.
He's addicted to the guitar.
He had a feeling of bebop.
He's not stupid.
He bowed.
He bowed just now.
He bowed.
Let's go to the next one.
Face the camera and bow.
What are you doing?
I'm glad I bowed like this.
That's not it.
I'm glad I bowed like this.
You're not motivated at all.
I'm glad I bowed like this.
You're not motivated at all.
That's not it.
It was the same, but...
It was different from bowing.
What else can you do?
It's over.
Please explain this.
It's the same.
Bowing means your butt is higher than your knees.
Your hands go up.
You bow.
You bow like this.
Your butt is lower than your knees.
That's bowing.
The difference in height will determine whether you'll bow or crouch.
That's difficult.
Sensei, what about this?
You'll bow, of course.
Sensei, what about this?
Are you tired? What are you doing?
Here is the next question.
Please raise your head towards the camera.
Keiichi, Miruru, and Kanakichi will answer.
Please raise your head towards the camera.
Oh, it's a trio.
I see.
Kanahichi is showing her eyebrows as much as she can.
I was wondering if I should show my cheek, but I couldn't see it, so I showed it.
Showing your eyebrows and drawing them up.
What about Keichi?
She was reading a book or something.
When I got in the way, she was like, "Ah!"
Oh, I see.
It's like you're going suddenly.
What did you see?
Something...
What's up?
Oh, an omomoro!
An omomoro is flying!
It's like an omomoro is flying.
An omomoro!
Is it a kanabuncho?
Teacher, let's see it in action!
Yes!
Raise your head towards the omomoro!
Omomoro...
Sensei, what does it mean?
You have to do it slowly like this.
Omomoro is when you do it slowly and you have to be cool.
"Asanoatsukobari"...
That's Omomoro.
It's completely different from Mirurun's.
Next up is...
Change in order of returning money as soon as possible.
You'll return it eventually, right?
You'll return it soon, right?
If you know this one, you'll change your car.
You'll ask Naru to answer this question.
I have three more difficult ones.
There's one who says one can't return it.
This guy won't return it.
This one.
Ta-dah!
You'll return it soon, right?
"Chikai uchi" is close in kanji, so "chikai"
and "sono uchi" is far away in kanji.
Let's see the correct answer.
It's quite different, unfortunately.
"Sugu" is really short in kanji.
"Chikai uchi" and "sono uchi" are close in kanji,
and I know them to a certain extent in my head,
but I don't know them well yet,
so "chikai" is shorter in kanji.
"Izure" means "some day",
and "sono uchi" means "not yet",
so "izure" is the farthest.
I don't think I can answer all of them,
because I'm "kaesuyan".
Because you're "kansai dialect".
If you say "kansai dialect"...
By the way, we asked Mr. Machida
about each period of "chikai uchi".
"Mousugu" is three days long,
"chikai uchi" is one week,
"sono uchi" is half a month,
and "izure" is one month!
Let's move on to the next question!
Which of you would definitely cheat again?
That would be Yamauchi.
Well, of course.
It's not a personality thing, it's a choice of words.
This is the third time I've been caught cheating.
Or "This is the third time I've been caught cheating."
But I feel like Yamauchi-san is having more fun than me.
That's true.
He's having more fun than me.
In general...
Oh, me?
Yeah.
Why, why?
It's like "this is the third time", but it's like "travel, travel".
You've arrived at a good point, haven't you?
Let's see the correct answer. Here it is!
"Too bad".
"Electronic company"!
Could you please stop that? What kind of difference is there, Sensei?
"Kai" means, for example, "the 5th tournament" or "the 10th tournament", and we use "kai" when we say "it will continue from now on", right?
And "do" means, for example, "it's the third time", and we say "we won't do it anymore", right?
And "do" means, for example, "it won't continue from now on", right?
That's right.
How many times have you done it now?
Now it's the 8th time.
I won't do it even if it's the 8th time!
Stop it!
Next question!
Who is closest to finishing their homework?
mostly
almost
"almost" is closest.
If it's "almost", I feel like there's not much left.
You can hear it? I see.
Anyone else?
almost
"almost" it is.
It's big.
What percentage of "almost" is it?
80-90.
"almost" is "almost".
95.
It goes up to 95? I see.
Let's see the correct answer.
"mostly" it is.
Everyone was surprised.
"mostly" it is.
When it's "almost"
you use "mostly".
When you eat "mostly",
there's only "almost" left.
It's like that.
When you eat "almost"
you use "almost".
When you say "percentage",
"mostly" is 95%.
"almost" is 85%.
"almost" is about 75%.
It's like that.
Let's see the next one.
Which of you has been popular for a long time?
I've been popular lately
Keiichi.
Yamauchi-san.
I've been popular lately
I've been popular lately.
I've been popular lately
I think it's been a long time.
Don't you say "lately" a lot?
It's been popular lately
I see.
Let's see the answer.
I've been popular lately
has been popular lately.
It's a period including the current season.
So it's short.
"Lately" is the closest.
So it's short.
But it's longer than that.
So if you've been popular lately,
you can be popular for about 3 years.
3 years is a long time.
3 years is enough.
How about you, Iwabe-san?
I've been popular lately
It's amazing that you didn't say it
It's as long as "kaitin"
Next, we will learn about this
Japanese is a strange language where the meaning changes more and more
The language changes more and more
Everyone studies classical Japanese at school, right?
Yes, we do
If you don't study it, you can't understand it
Japanese from 1,000 years ago and Japanese now have changed a lot
For example, look at this
How you call people
"You", "you", "you"
You say it like that, right?
You can't say it to people above you, right?
Right
You can't say it to the president, "Are you taking a day off tomorrow?"
"Are you taking a day off?" is not "you"
"Are you taking a day off?" is wrong
And the way you talk
You
It doesn't have a good meaning
However, everyone used it to describe people above them
"You" means "before you", right?
Yes, "before you"
In the past, people said "on my"
But now, people are afraid of it and can only say "my"
I see
You can't even say your name
I see
Next, like the word "kisama", "kizoku"
The word "kisama" includes the meaning of "honoring"
And like the word "kunshu", "kimi" means "king"
It's totally different from how you say it now
You!
That's too sudden!
When did you change like that?
I used to say that until Heian period or Kamakura period
But if you use it a lot, you'll get dirty
It got dirty around Edo period
So people started using it as if they were looking down on someone
Did you study that?
It's all in there!
You!
You say it all the time!
Here's a quiz
In modern times, there's only one word that represents someone above your level
What is it? Do you know?
Saipi, you're fast!
President?
That's true!
It's not that different
You use it, but you get dirty
It's a little different
President, president!
If you say it like that, people will be careful
You!
You! You're still above me!
You're still growing!
You!
It's fine if you don't grow
Sen-saga
Prime minister?
Prime minister is nice!
It's the best!
Look!
Prime minister!
Prime minister is nice!
You don't use it in modern times, do you?
You only use it in business meetings
I've heard of it
Let's see! Here's the answer!
If I had to say it, there's only "sensei"
Even prime ministers call you "sensei"
Even lawyers call you "sensei"
Even doctors call you "sensei"
No matter what you do, you should call a prime minister "sensei"
It's become popular recently
Sensei!
I don't care!
You're getting emotional so quickly!
In Japanese, when you use the word "prime minister", it becomes popular
It's getting less and less common
That's the difficult part
The next Japanese word has a different meaning from the original is...
"tekito-na-hito" (random person)
It's a word you say casually, isn't it?
What does it mean, Airi?
It means "just do it", right?
This is "tekito-na-hito" (random person)
In the past, it was "chan-to-suru-hito" (right person)
I see.
Airi, this is amazing.
It originally meant like this, right?
That was correct.
Wow, that's amazing!
Doing something, but with a person who is not suitable for it,
or with something that is not suitable for it,
that kind of meaning was expressed by "tekito-na- hito" (random person)
But if you use it on a daily basis,
it's not very good anymore,
it's "just do it" (random person)
That kind of meaning has changed, right?
"You're doing a random job" is a good meaning, right?
No, it's not a bad meaning.
Sensei, I don't think it's a bad meaning either.
It's the original meaning.
The original meaning is...
It's not a bad meaning.
It's not?
It's not a bad meaning?
There are other words with different meanings.
This is "kosoku" (self-control)
If you say it now, it's like "that person is cheating" or "he's cowardly"
It's a really bad meaning, right?
It's like "I'm hungry"
The original meaning is...
Kanagichi?
It has "iki" (breathing) in it,
so it's like "hito-iki" (one breath) of a person who is about to die.
At the end, it's like "ahhh"
"Ah, grandma has "kosoku" (self-control)
At the moment, she has "kosoku" (self-control) and she's in a five-person group.
At the end, it's "hito-iki" (one breath)
The original meaning is like this.
You rest for a while.
The meaning is completely different, right?
It's like "resting"
In China, it was like "resting temporarily" or "resting for a while"
From there, it changed to "resting on the spot"
But it doesn't mean "deceiving" or "cheating" at all.
It's like "the person next to you is resting, so it's cheating"
I think it was misunderstood like that.
The one who is resting is cheating
But it doesn't mean it correctly, so you can't use it.
I see.
Now, let's continue.
"Sugoi" doesn't mean anything right now.
Nana
Gokufutsu
I see. It's completely opposite.
It's completely opposite.
Let's look at the original meaning.
Hijou ni kimi ga warui
Kowai
"Kowai" used to mean "terrible"
Kowai na
When you say "that person is amazing", you say "kowai na"
"Kowai" means "very" or "high degree"
That's why "terrible" or "high degree" started to be used more and more.
Now, "terrible" doesn't mean anything anymore.
What did "kowai" say in the past?
Hanahadashi
It's not "hanahadashi" now, is it?
Yes, it's a bit difficult now.
You can use it now, right?
But in the past, "terrible" was used more and more.
Next, "kakushinhan"
"Wawarui" and "wakatteite" and "oyobuhankou"
The meaning is the same now, but what is the original meaning?
Shun
Shinjiteru
Hanninyo
You do bad things, but you don't think you're right.
But, Sensei, isn't it also good to say things like "I don't think it's bad"?
That's "kakushinhan", right?
No, that's just stupid.
There's no such thing, Sensei!
Stupid?
There's no such thing!
Is that something you can say from your words?
You're stupid.
You shouldn't say it like that, Sensei.
"something" or "somehow", or "politics" or "religion" or whatever those things are that you think are right,
people might think it's bad, but you did it.
You can't use "kakushinhan" without those situations.
There are very few cases where you can use it.
The meaning of "machigatta" is rapidly progressing.
"Machigatta" originally means "wrong", but since people are using it now,
there are many cases where the second verse is written.
So, it's wrong, but I'll forgive you.
That's what it means.
So, why did wrong Japanese become correct Japanese?
That's what I think.
Even if wrong Japanese was thought of in the beginning,
if everyone uses it and understands it, it will become correct.
If everyone acknowledges it as correct Japanese,
it will take more than 200 years.
200 years!
It will take about 200 years.
You still have a lot of character.
I still have a lot of character.
Scary!
What was that?
If you didn't say anything, we wouldn't have saved it.
You said it on a regular basis.
I didn't want you to hear it, so I didn't say anything.
Next, let's pay attention to young people's words that everyone uses a lot.
They say "zenzen daijoubu desu" all of a sudden.
Have you ever heard that you have to use "hitei" after "zenzen" ?
They say it a lot, don't they ?
zenzen daijoubu desu
No matter what Muro says, "zenzen daijoubu desu"
Muro
I say it a lot
zenzen daijoubu desu
It's like a habit
There is an unexpected fact
Both of them are correct.
"zenzen daijoubu desu" and "zenzen daijoubu desu" are both correct.
They are not wrong.
"zenzen daijoubu desu" was correct, but it became wrong all of a sudden.
I don't know the reason for this, but words that emphasize "zenzen" or "mattaku"
When they express the meaning of "hitei", they say "let's use it" and it changes.
In fact, Matsume Soseki and Mori Ogai used "zenzen daijoubu desu" when they used correct Japanese words.
So it wasn't wrong for both of them to say "zenzen daijoubu desu".
Next is "tabereru" and "okireru" and other "ranuki" words.
You all use them a lot, right?
Yes.
You use them a lot, but you think they are wrong.
"ranuki" words.
Let's use "tabereru" as an example.
"tabereru" and "ranuki" words have three meanings.
tabereru
Look at this example.
When you ask someone "senpai, do you eat snacks?" you say "sounkei", which means "respect".
When you say "tabereru" to a small fish and a big fish, you say "ukemi", which means "acceptance".
When you say "tabereru" to someone who is full and you say "tabereru", you say "tabereru".
When you say "tabereru", you say "taberukotogadekiru", which means "to be able to".
The three meanings are completely different, aren't they?
The same "taberareru" expresses a completely different meaning.
It's a problem.
It's a problem, isn't it?
When you say "tabereru", you say "taberukotogadekiru", which means "to be able to".
The phrase "tabereru" was created by trying to make it convenient.
"Tabereru" is used when you write a book in Japanese.
When you say "tabereru" or "mireru" in Japanese, you say "taberukotogadekiru".
It takes 200 years for you to say "tabereru" in Japanese, doesn't it?
It takes a lot of time.
But I learned it in school.
You learned "ranukikotoba", didn't you?
You learned "warui" in school, didn't you?
You learned "tsukattyaikenaiyo" in school, didn't you?
You still haven't learned "tsukattyaikenaiyo".
It's about timing, isn't it?
You know, there's a "koujien" or something like that.
You know, everyone thinks it's right.
If you ride that, you'll be right.
Other than that, it hasn't been recognized yet.
Next, we'll pay attention to the words that celebrities have spread.
In general, these words are said to have been spread by these celebrities.
Have you ever heard of it?
It's Sanma-san's "h".
That's right. It's famous.
It's a great invention.
Really?
It's said that Sanma-san came up with "h", isn't it?
It's true that Sanma-san spread it.
Originally, high school girls like you said, "That person is a pervert."
If you write "pervert" in Roman letters, it starts with "h".
So, taking "h" from "pervert" and saying "that person is a pervert" makes sense.
It's a great invention.
That's when I was a kid.
Sanma-san took it up on TV and spread it.
Didn't you say "h" when you were a kid?
When I was in elementary school, a girl named Tanaka- san said "h" to me.
What did I do?
I don't know!
What do you want me to do?
Next, "blue", "sabui".
This is Matsumoto-san.
"Blue" comes from the English word "aoi".
"Sabui" has been around for a long time.
It's been around since the Heian period.
Sabui
"Sabui" was a word.
Matsumoto-san added a new meaning to it and spread it.
If you keep saying it, it will change one day, right?
That's right.
If you use it once and it's funny, no one will use it again.
It's important for people who appear on TV to keep using it.
What are you talking about?
Huh?
What are you talking about?
Right now?
There's a lot.
Just one!
Are you going to say it now?
You said it, so I'm going to say it.
Which one of you is going to say it?
Just say it, Matsumoto-san.
You said it, so I'm going to say it.
Just say it!
It doesn't matter if it's "star" or anything else.
Wasn't it like that?
I've been doing it again for a minute now.
Katakori
It's a famous novel that everyone read a lot.
It spread because it was used.
It's a novel that was serialized in the newspaper, so everyone read it a lot.
That's why everyone started using it.
Wasn't there a word "katakori" before you used it?
"Katagakori" or something like that.
I've been saying that since the Edo period.
Matsume Soseki used it as a phenomenon like "katakori".
If you keep using it...
If you think about it like that, you'll keep saying it.
Yes, if people with influence keep saying it, it will spread.
What's wrong with you?
You made it up for me!
You're throwing it away!
Now, here's the quiz!
Words spread by Yujiro Ishihara.
This is also there.
Do you know it? Rika-nyan!
Kakugari
Yujiro-san, wasn't it "kakugari"?
It wasn't "kakugari"!
It's not "kakugari"!
It's "dandy"!
Who told you it's "kakugari"?!
Sayaka!
Gurasan
It's about sunglasses!
I see, "gurasan"!
I see! Here's the answer!
Ikasu
Do you know "ikasu", everyone?
Does everyone know the meaning of "ikasu"?
We know it!
Really? Thank goodness!
About 30 years ago, Yujiro Ishihara became very popular.
He used "ikasu" in a good way.
We also used it a lot.
Nowadays, we say "iketeru", don't we?
It's the same, but it was made up of the word "iku".
But nowadays, we don't use "ikasu", we say "iketeru".
Is there a popular word in the same generation?
Wakari has always called me "kimai", you know?
"Kimai"?
What is "kimai"?
I thought you said "kimoi".
No, I didn't!
I thought you said "kimoi", but you said "kimai".
What is "kimai"?
"Kimai"?
Is "kimai" a man like "kimaegae"?
"Kimai" who treats you to juice!
You can hear "kimaegae" from "kimaegae".
"Kimai"!
Is it similar to "kimoi"?
No, it's not.
In a completely different sense.
"Kimazui na" (embarrassing)
Correct!
Embarrassing!
It's not embarrassing.
Do you have any other words you use?
Recently, we say "ryo" (food)
"Ryo"?
"Ri" or "gyouri" (food)
"Ri"? That's too much!
"Ryo" or "gyouri"?
"Ri"?
"Ryo" or "gyouri"?
We use "suga" (fast) but we shorten it.
"Ryo"?
"Ryo" or "gyouri"?
"Ri"!
Oh, you mean "ryokai" (understood)
Teacher, it's getting difficult.
I see.
Isn't it too short?
But it's fine.
When we were students, we said "muzukashii" (difficult) and "muzui" (difficult)
We say it now.
"Kishokuwaruiyo" and "kishoi" (bad manners)
Young people usually shorten it and use it with others.
If we do it for 100 years, it will be shortened and we will only turn around in the end.
Don't say it!
"Nani Yarasete Kei Tonmen" (What are you doing, Tonmen?)
This mission is to get a scuba diving license aiming for "the woman of the sea".
Scuba diving is diving with an air tank in the sea.
This time, Kanakichi and Haru will try "party open water".
If you get it, you can dive up to 18 meters without instructor's instruction.
In order to get a license, you need to study music, pool, and marine science.
Two people studied music and pool last time.
Can they get a license by studying marine science and passing music exam?
These two people are...
Good morning!
We came to Okinawa!
Look at this wave!
They came to Okinawa, but it's bad weather.
So, they decided to do scuba diving in Gino Bay.
They moved to Itoman's beach, which has calm waves.
It's calm. I'm relieved.
Let's go!
They prepared for scuba diving and went to sea training.
First of all, they will do...
They will learn how to get buoyancy which they failed in pool training.
They struggled a little bit, but they managed to do it after a lot of practice.
And when they were swimming, they found something.
It's big.
After that, they swam, explored, and got used to the sea for the first time in their lives.
You were good at swimming.
Really?
How was it when you practiced?
I think we were able to do a lot of good things considering the flow of the water.
And now, it's time for a meal break.
This is mozuku soba, mozuku rice,
sumozuku, mozuku tempura, and sumozuku...
mozuku soup.
It looks good.
How is it?
It's really good.
It tastes like Okinawa.
After eating, they continue diving.
It's beautiful.
After diving for the second time,
they practice various skills they learned in pool training in the sea.
And after the dive, the two of them...
Hey, don't you think I'm ugly?
Don't you think I'm super ugly?
No, you're terrible!
You're too terrible! I don't want you to film me!
The first dive was just for fun,
but after the second dive, I realized that my body...
- Your first dive? - Yeah.
I started to understand.
After the first dive, the teacher...
After the first dive, I got used to it.
For the second dive, even if you look at my expression,
you can tell that I'm relaxed.
I think there will be a test at the end of the class,
and I'm curious about how you'll clear it.
The teacher is also worried about the test tomorrow,
and the two of them go back to the hotel and study.
That day is over.
- Good morning. - Good morning.
And finally, the test.
- Did you study? - I studied right before I went to bed yesterday.
Right before I went to bed, I studied for an hour and a half,
because I was so sleepy.
When they ask about the secret to passing the test...
If it's not easy, I'll bet my luck.
This seems like the answer.
I'll put this on my cheek.
The two of them seem to be relaxed.
And then, the teacher...
This year, since 2014, no one has failed yet.
So, we might be the first one?
Oh, no!
We might be the last one!
OK, let's go!
Yes!
So, the entrance exam starts!
In the last mock test, they didn't pass.
They want to avoid failing for the first time, but...
I don't know.
Oh, no!
I think it's 40.
I think so.
What are the scores?
First, Haru.
41 points!
I'm happy! And you got 41 points!
Yes.
Isn't it good?
Yes.
It's amazing!
Your goal is clear.
I've never seen such a big number in school like this.
So, Haru passed the entrance exam.
Next, Kanakichi.
Only one out of ten people will fail.
But, the memory of failing to get a boat license comes back.
What will happen?
44 points!
- Kanamaru! - Whoa, there's a lot of beans!
Both of them passed the exam!
- I feel like I've become a comedian. - It's not funny in a variety sense, but...
- I'm not a comedian, but I'm good at it. - That's right.
And...
- Ta-dah! - Ta-dah!
- It's a big difference from yesterday! - It's a big difference from yesterday!
- I'm off! - See you later!
- Whoa! - Whoa!
With the momentum of passing the exam, they went back to the sea.
It's so beautiful!
They enjoyed the clear sea air for more than a day.
We've safely completed our sea trip to Okota!
- Yay! - Yay!
And so, both of them have obtained their scuba diving licenses!
We've also obtained our scuba license, so we're looking forward to working in the sea!
You both did your best!
What does this mean?
- This isn't a heart. - This is like Yuuki-san from "Real Kids"!
It's similar!
- It's like Yuuki-san! - It's like Yuuki-san!
And with that, we'll announce this week's "Excellent, Smart, Totally Useless Exams"!
And here's your reward or punishment game!
- It's skydiving. - Whoa!
And so, this week's smart one is...
- Yuppi! - Yay!
- It's my first time! - You did your best!
- You got it later, but it's your first time now. - It's my first time!
And so, this week's stupid one is...
- Mirurun! - Yay!
- Is it a game of "omomuro"? - It's like "omomuro, omomuro".
- What's "omomuro, omomuro" about? - It's like a gag.
Mirurun, write "omomuro" on paper.
Omomuro, omomuro...
It's a little scary, isn't it?
Down.
Miller. Yes?
You've been a complete idiot until now.
Huh?
Make sure you get a good reward lesson.
Yes.
Please!
Here's the question.
Make an awkward expression.
5...

Nice.
Here's the next question.
Write "God" on an omomuro.

Here's the last question.

Answer by full name.
5...

It's "stone"
Ironji
Out of 3 questions, 2 questions are correct, so...
Stop!
Out!
That's not it!
Ishihara Yujiro.
Who is "stone" and "tetsuji"?
You're wrong!
It's like a ramen commercial.
"Wakame" is refreshing.
Isn't it?
