(wind blowing)

[Gojyo]: You guys ready?

(he gets hit with the fan)

[Sanzo]: What’s with that posturing? It’s just a fireworks show.

[Gojyo]: Oww. . . What, I just wanted to try saying it once.

[Hakkai]: I understand how you feel.

[Gojyo]: Sanzo, you better watch out. Keep making light of fireworks shows and you’re in for trouble.

[Hakkai]: Did someone make light of a fireworks show and end up in trouble?

[Sanzo]: Never heard of it.

[Gojyo]: Idiot! Fireworks shows demand extremely careful planning. Where are you gonna watch it from; if it gets really crowded which route are you gonna escort a girl along; that’s where the basics of dating are packed in tight.

[Goku]: But this isn’t a date or nothing.

[Hakkai]: More importantly, do you date, Gojyo?

[Gojyo]: What’s that supposed to mean?

[Hakkai]: Aha, I just thought that you omitted that bittersweet process.

[Gojyo]: You think I’m a dumb beast or something? . . . But if it’s come down to four guys going to a fireworks festival, I guess I’m finished.

[Sanzo]: Doesn’t look like it’s started.

[Gojyo]:. . . You. ..

[Goku]: Amazing! There’re so many booths! Yakisoba, takoyaki, frankfurters, caramel apples chocolate bananas!!! I wanna eat ‘em all!!!

[Hakkai]: Goku, Goku, please calm down.

(girls giggle and chat as they walk by)

[Girl1]: Come on, it’s gonna start soon!

[Girl2]: Really? Then before that. ..

[Gojyo]: Woah! The girls in yukata look great! The pink is cute, but the black has a hard to toss out charm too. . . Ehehehehe. ..

[Hakkai]: Gojyo, please calm down.

[Sanzo]: Idiots. Leave it alone.

[Goku]: Sanzo, Hakkai, Gojyo! Let’s hurry up and eat something!

[Gojyo]: Oh, how about takoyaki and beer?

[Hakkai]: That sounds good. Oh? Where’s Goku?

[Sanzo]: He’s already in front of the takoyaki stand.

[Gojyo and Hakkai]: So fast!

(they walk over, and the sounds of sizzling grow louder)

[Gojyo]: Hey Mister! Add another takoyaki. Oh, and beer too.

[Goku]: (mouth full) Oh. Hanzo, hu huys hinally hame.

[Hakkai]: Goku, no one can understand what you’re saying.

[Gojyo]: And you’re eating already?

[Goku]: (mouth full) Yeah!

[Sanzo]: Mister. Two beers.

[Mister]: Sure thing.

(sizzling continues, interrupted by the loud boom of fireworks and the exclamations of the crowd)

[Goku]: Wah! Fireworks!

[Sanzo]: So it’s started.

[Gojyo]: Hooo, people are really getting revved up!

[Hakkai]: Tamaya*!

[Goku]: Huh? What’s that?

[Hakkai]: Ah, I just felt it would be appropriate somehow.

[Mister]: Okay! First, two beers!

[Gojyo]: Thanks

(gulps some down)

[Gojyo]: Here, Sanzo.

[Sanzo]: Hn?

(fireworks boom and people cheer)

[Goku]: It’s so pretty!

[Sanzo]: Hn. Even though I have to watch it with you bastards.

[Hakkai]: It really is a sour thing seen with only men.

[Goku]: Sour?

[Gojyo]: (swallows) Next time I’m definitely coming with a beautiful yukata girl.

[Sanzo]: Guys like you always say the same thing every time.

[Gojyo]: Ah? What about you?

[Mister]: Sorry for the wait. Here’s you takoyaki.

[Hakkai]: Ah, I’ll take that.

[Mister]: Right, all together it’s ￥1700.

[Sanzo]: Yeah. . . . . . . . . on my card.

[Mister]: Woah, woah, sir, you can’t use a card at a stall! You gotta pay in cash.

[Sanzo]: Hey, Hakkai.

[Hakkai]: Oh, I’m sorry, I don’t have any money on me. ..

[Sanzo]: Gojyo.

(Gojyo sighs and shells out the cash)

[Mister]: Thank you, come again!

[Gojyo]: Ah, you guys planned that, didn’t you.

[Sanzo]: Fireworks shows demand careful planning, right?

[Gojyo]: (curses get stuck in his throat)

[Hakkai]: (mouth full) Oh, ah, hith ith delithuth.

[Goku]: Ah, me too me too! Ooh, wahaha, soo good!!!

[Gojyo]: Hey Monkey!! You already ate!

[Goku]: What’s the big deal? Cheapass.

[Sanzo]: All right. Next let’s get shave ice to cleanse the palate.

[Goku]: Yay! Can I eat strawberry and melon both?

[Sanzo]: Yeah. I’ll eat half.

[Goku]: Shave ice shave ice! (fades away)

[Gojyo]: Hey wait! You’re not planning on eating that with my money are you?

[Hakkai]: Thank you for the food, Gojyo. Shall I have plain syrup?

[Gojyo]: You, just watch the fireworks, will ya?

[Hakkai]: Food before flowers, remember?

[Goku]: (from a little bit away) Wow, the frankfurters look tasty!

[Gojyo]: Agh, do that after you eat the shave ice, at least!

[Goku]: (still muffled) And then I want yakisoba and okonomiyaki and caramel apples and chocolate bananas and. .

[Gojyo]: Whaaaat?!

[Goku]: (still muffled) Mister! Gimme three frankfurters!

[Gojyo]: You stupid monkey!!! (runs toward Goku)

[Goku]: And two yakisobas and four oko—mmph!

(Gojyo slaps his hand over Goku’s mouth)

[Gojyo]: Haven’t you eaten enough, Goku-chan?

(bang bang bang! The sound of a toy gun going off)

[Hakkai]: (clapping) Wonderful! A direct hit.

[Sanzo]: Obviously. Next I’ll aim for that spotted seal figurine.

[Gojyo]: Sanzo. What are you doing.

[Sanzo]: Shooting. You can’t tell by looking?

[Gojyo]: That’s not what I mean. ..

[Sanzo]: Money. Pay the man.

[Gojyo]: Haaa? Why do I hafta. . .?

(bang bang bang! Bang!)

[Sanzo]: Huh? Strange. I’m not hitting it.

[Hakkai]: This is something I’ve seen before.

[Sanzo]: Right. One more game.

[Gojyo]: Hey, Baldy!!!

(Goku gets lose and runs off)

[Goku]: Mister! Four okonomiyakis!

[Gojyo]: Agh, Monkey! Don’t run off and buy stuff on your own!

(bang bang bang!)

[Gojyo]: Aah, Sanzo! Stop shooting!

[Goku]: Woah, the fried squid and corn on the cob looks good too!

[Gojyo]: AAAaaagh, you bastards!!!

[Hakkai]: Certainly, you are facing trouble after a sense, Gojyo.

[Goku]: Mister! Ten chocolate bananas please! And a soda!

(bang bang bang!)

[Sanzo]: Old man. One more game.

[Goku]: Oooooh, so good!

(bang bang bang!)

(bang bang bang!)

[Sanzo]: Old man. One more game.

[Goku]: And yakisoba!

[Gojyo]: Nngghah, I’m never going with you bastards again!!!

(Goku keeps ordering food, Sanzo keeps shooting)

[Hakkai]: Ahh, Gojyo, do you want one of the yo-yos I fished?

[Gojyo]: (sighs) Just do what you want.

[Goku]: Fireworks festivals are so fun!!!

(fireworks go off in the distance)
