Junji Itô: Korekushon (2018–…): Season 1, Episode 1 - Souichi's Convenient Curses - Hellish Doll Funeral - full transcript

A curse upon you.

Ow, ow, ow... My guts hurt!

A curse upon you...

Someone...

Help!

Now you'll see some real horror.

There's no one quite as amazing as me.

How am I so great?

I am a man of incomprehensible, \Nsuperhuman potential!

One shouldn't compare me to the \Nkind of peons you see everywhere.

And to top it off, I'm so handsome!



Hey, did you hear?

Ouya-kun from Class 3 passed out\Nin the street last night.

They say he's hospitalized now.

Oh, really?

I wonder what happened\Nto poor Ouya-kun...

Ouya thought he was hot stuff,

so I had to teach him a little lesson.

But that's a secret!

After all, we can't have everyone\Nfinding out how amazing I am.

The peons of this class are convinced\Nthat I'm a perfectly ordinary boy.

Although, even then...

I still can't seem to escape \Nthe adoration of the girls.

He's giggling...

He really isn't normal.



And that gloomy face of his creeps me out.

You just don't get it!

You got a problem?!

Screw you! Apologize!

You apologize!

Kuroda-kun and Akiyama-kun are fighting.

Why?! It's your fault!

The two of them have never gotten along.

What?! It's obviously yours!

I'm gonna slug you, man!

Go ahead, if you've got the guts!

Shut up!

And a new hatred has been born...

Despite how I might seem, I'm actually \Nquite a kind-hearted young man.

For instance,

if you dig up a bit of dirt\Non a wintry day like this...

You'll often find a hibernating \Ntoad, just like this.

There, there.

It must've been chilly in that dirt, huh?

How about you come home with me?

It's nice and warm!

See?

This is your new house.

There's even some water for you.

So, let's sit down.

That's a great idea,

if I want to make my\Nhemorrhoids hurt like hell!

Oh, my!

The whole family's happily\Nsitting around after dinner, eh?

Good for them.

That's Kouichi.

Pitiful bastard with \Npretensions of seriousness,

always trying to play the big brother\Nin a way that's frankly intolerable.

This is my older sister, named Sayuri,

and the poor girl seems to have\Nconvinced herself she's a beauty.

There's honestly nothing noteworthy enough\Nto comment on in regards to this trio.

What a dull bunch!

Souichi.

If you want to watch TV with us,\Njust come in and do it.

If not, then close the sliding door.

It's cold.

Son of a bitch...

I'll make you suffer for your idiocy one day.

Did you say something?!

No, nothing...

I heard him.

He said you were stupid.

What?!

Damned Sayuri!

Souichi, how am I stupid?!

Look here, Sayuri!

It's your favorite, a toad!

Stop that, Souichi!

Cut it out, Souichi!

Do you see now?

I'm not a peon like the rest of you,

I'm wanted— No, I'm even wonted!

You should all bow down!

You're wonted, huh?

New Edition \NDictionary

"Wonted:"

"Average, commonplace."

What?!

Damn you, Kouichi!

How dare you embarrass me?!

Not that it matters.

I don't have time for this nonsense.

I've got a new project, after all.

I should get to work on it right away...

What kind of curse would be good, I wonder...

I know...

A hibernation curse should do nicely.

Now, Kuroda-kun, time to go to sleep.

You can come out when\Nspring rolls around...

Hey, did you hear?

Class 6-1

You know Kuroda's been absent \Nfor a few days now, right?

Seems he went missing.

Did he run away?

Get kidnapped?

Maybe he got killed.

Don't even joke about that!

Hey, Akiyama...

You were fighting with Kuroda.

Did you hear anything?

How would I know?

Again?!

It keeps happening lately!

Driving damned nails into my cedar trees!

If this is a prank, it's gone too far!

I'm not putting up with this anymore!

I'll be the one who nails \Nwhoever's responsible!

Eh?

Now, what the hell is this?

Damn it.

What the...

Well, what's this supposed to be?

A mannequin's head?

It's a person!

They found Kuroda!

He was buried up to his head\Nin the cedar forest.

So was he dead?

No, just asleep.

They took him to the hospital,\Nand then he woke up.

Asleep in the dirt?

You're saying he was asleep for days, \Nin the dirt, in this freezing weather?

What the hell?!

It was going to be so funny when\Nhe crawled out of the dirt in spring!

Damn it!

Kuroda says he doesn't\Nremember what happened, either.

What a weirdo.

Did he think he was a snake\Nor a frog or something?

Something's odd about those three...

They look like they're\Nhaving a friendly chat,

but there's an air of oddness today.

I do believe there's been a change in \Nthe status quo for this trio of pals.

Just take a close look.

Yamada and Kawai are talking like normal,

but Kawai and Ishizaka aren't\Nsaying much to each other for once.

{\fad(608,1)}Conversation

Which means...

Something awkward must've happened!

Some kind of heinous, hideous muck \Nhas been raked up in their hearts!

The four-eyed Ishizaka getting pushed\Naround by the outgoing Kawai...

That's where hate is born!

That's it!

Ishizaka must hate Kawai!

He hates him from\Nthe bottom of his heart!

I've gotta use the bathroom.

Ishizaka-kun!

Ishizaka-kun?

Oh, it's you, Souichi-kun.

Can I help you?

It must be so hard.

What must be hard?

I understand...

To curse someone is a difficult thing.

And you hate Kawai-kun so much, \Nyou want to see him dead, right?

You curse him, don't you?

But there's no need to worry.

Just leave Kawai to me!

I'll curse him in your stead.

What the hell? Souichi said that?

Don't pay that freak any mind.

He said he was going\Nto curse you, though.

Sounds like fun!

Hey, check it out.

It's that psycho landowner...

Damn it.

Here.

It's foreign, and expensive.

I appreciate it.

Very nice.

I like it.

I think I'll head home and have\Na little walk around the attic.

See you later.

No!

Stay away from me!

I found this in the attic. It's the remains \Nof a giant gold orb weaver!

Go on and eat it up!

It's delicious!

Stop screwing around!

Souichi, what are you doing now?!

Onii-chan, do something about him!

Why are you always pulling crap like this?

Throw that thing outside now!

I'm not just gonna throw it away!

Just look at these long legs!

It's so beautiful!

Enough!

Eep!

Hey, Sayuri...

Did you just hear him go "Eep"?

Yeah!

Well, well.

Maybe he's more scared\Nof spiders than he lets on.

Wh-What are you doing?

See? See?

Look!

I can't believe you're handling \Nit bare-handed! Gross!

Talk about nasty!

I'm not some stupid kid.

I don't have time to waste\Nwith this nonsense.

I have another new project.

I wonder which curse it should be this time...

I know.

Something with spiders will do nicely.

"In Japan for the first time in a year,

in my home for the first time in a year.

It would be natural to feel relieved now,

but I find it disturbing.

The reason being that someone else \Nhas lived here during that time.

Worse yet is the fact that it was

the family of my middle school teacher.

S-Sensei!

This house that had still been new—"

What is it, Kawai?

Damn it, talk about embarrassing...

Huh?

That's weird. My stomach \Ndoesn't hurt anymore.

I should've just held on, if it was nothing...

Huh?

It's not opening.

What is this?

What's going on?!

Hey!

Guess I'll climb out.

He was passed out in \Nthe bathroom, apparently.

And he was wrapped\Nhead to toe in toilet paper!

How's that, Ishizaka-kun?

Satisfied with the result?

What are you talking about?

No, no, it's not like I expect anything in return.

All I did was teach\NKawai-kun a lesson for you.

As long as you're happy, that's enough.

Don't get the wrong idea, though.

The service I've performed \Nfor you is worthy of pay,

but I'm not the kind of petty guy who'd\Ndemand money or stuff from you.

No need for thanks.

Really, none at all!

No thanks necessary—

Souichi-kun,

what the heck are you babbling about?

What do you mean,\Nyou taught Kawai a lesson?

What's going on, Ishizaka?

Nothing important, I guess...

Damn you, Ishizaka!

Not only do you show no gratitude,

but you embarrass me, too?

Don't think you'll get away with this.

Hello, Ishizaka residence.

Uh, yes, is this Ishizaka Yasuo-san?

Yes, that's me.

Congratulations!

You're very lucky, sir!

You've been selected for the chance \Nto win a free trip around the world!

If you could,

please come to Sakurayama Park next to \Nthe elementary school, alone, right away!

We can hash out the details there!

Be sure to show up, all right?

That idiot. He's actually coming.

I'd better get everything ready!

That was obviously Souichi's voice...

I don't know what that idiot's planning,

but I'm ready for it.

So cold... and late...

If he's coming, he needs\Nto show up already!

What is that thing?!

It followed me into the woods!

You're... Souichi?!

Damn you, Ishizaka, you tricked me!

Setting a trap like that... You coward!

Hey, stupid!

That trap was set by the angry\Nold man who owns this property!

There's no telling what he'll\Ndo to you if he finds you!

Wh-What?!

What are you trying to say?

I'm saying you'd better run. \NThis one's not on me!

I don't wanna run into that old psycho,

so I'm getting out of here.

The bastard actually left me...

Abandoning me like this and going home... \NHe should be ashamed of himself.

Damn it!

My leg's stuck!

What the hell are you doing \Nup there, you little bastard?!

Pretending to be a cat isn't gonna help!

You're the one who's been vandalizing\Nmy cedar trees, aren't you?!

I'm gonna tear you apart!

Die!

Spare me!

Screaming isn't gonna help you.

Tonight, you die.

Show some mercy!

Whatever you do, don't kill me!

Mommy, help!

It's what you get for messing with my cedars!

What's wrong, sir?

Who are you supposed to be?

Souichi, what are you doing up there?

Bro!

You've gotta help me!

I'm showing the little brat who's boss,\Nsince he's been messing with my cedars!

After this, I'm calling the cops on him. \NGot a problem with that?

Do you have any proof\Nthat my brother did this?

How the hell isn't this rock-solid proof?!

I see... You have a point.

I'll go with him to the police, then.

Yeah? You're the brat's brother, huh?

All right, fair enough.

But if we speak to the police,

I'll have to tell them about these traps, too.

I wonder how they'd feel about you \Nsetting traps like this for people.

What?

You trying to blackmail me?!

It's not blackmail. I'm stating facts.

Screw with me, will you?!

Both of you, get out, now!

If I catch either of you around\Nhere again, you're dead!

Come on, Souichi. Let's go home.

Souichi, why do you cause \Nso much trouble for us?

He's right, Souichi. Show some remorse!

You tell him!

Hey! I'm not done with you yet!

Souichi!

I don't have time to waste\Nlistening to your rant, Dad.

I have a cute friend in little toady here.

Toady!

It's been a while, huh?

I'll let you out now.

It's been a few days, huh?

Toady!

Rotted...

Stinky!

Souichi's Convenient Curses

I can't believe it...

The thing I've feared has come true.

Papa, you look so frightened. What's wrong?

Well, Papa?

Oh, it's nothing, Marie.

After all this time,

my daughter has succumbed\Nto the doll transformation!

Collection No. 090

Hellish Doll Funeral

Honey! Honey!

Marie's completely turned into a doll now!

Look!

She can't even move!

She won't respond to me!

My darling daughter...

Will you really never smile for us again?

Most people in this world put their children \Nto rest once they've turned into dolls,

but I can't understand that...

Let's keep Marie by our side.

But Marie's changes didn't end there...

And we began to understand how \Nthose parents must have felt.

Dear...

We should put her to rest.

Yes...
