{SFX}tap tap tap tap
Hahahaha//
Po Do you want to sumo wrestle with me?
Come on, come at me!
{SFX}Grab
I'll beat you here, even though my lack of exercise is worrying
[019]
OOOOOOOOOOH YEAAAAAAAHHHH
What are you doing...?!?
It's a weekday, shouldn't yo be at work, not playing
sumo with a puffy ghost?
Also, Po's a little ghost, shouldn't you go easy on him?
You're just some untrained old painter! You're the trash of humanity!
I wouldn't go that far, the other end is just as funny though.
[020]
Look at this, Mama...
My, what a pretty painting! Is this seriously what you call a career?
This is all I can think of during my art block, woman!
{SFX}Fuuuuu
{Side text}Self importance
What's that supposed to mean?!
My paintings are uncommon, you can't put a price on them. they won't even sell them in $.99 cent stores
I don't think you understand your own values.
I need to break this horrible situation down for my teacher... I'll call him here today so we can discuss this
He's here!!
[021]
Teacher... It's been so long!
How've you been Himeji? I've grown quite old.
You need to listen to your art block and understand it. This is a particularly bad case of it.
Drawing natural things will, naturally, be dull and uninteresting.
This is my latest drawing, "Yure." As you can see it's not a natural thing. If this were a natural thing, I wouldn't draw it.//
Are you getting all this?
THAT'S AMAZING!
I don't get it...
[022]
You can see things normal humans can't, you truly are an inspiration.
If I have art, I can make the unthinkable, I'm always honored.
I think you posses all the right character traits.
Me?!?!
I believe you possess the sense that most people don't have.
B..But I'm really just a normal guy..
Don't be self conscious... You need to rely on the talent you have.
You must remove your feelings from your paintings//
Eventually, your ambition will awaken.
Okay..
[023]
By the way Himeji...
I must ask an unpleasant question..
Who is that boy standing over there?
[024]
Whaaaa?!
Mr.Bakuzan, you can see that boy?
Yes, he's a cute human boy
Somehow, he resembles you
M...ME!?!
What? Why did you ask why I could see that kid?
[025]
How do I say it..
It's lovely, my existence has expired, this is the first time you've seen me.
A boy?
