SMACK
Immortal Tatsu.
This guy is…
Hey, remember me?
I'm from the Hirako Group,
the one you took out!
Mic check. One, two.
Here I am, the top ranker
A former yakuza, a dope rapper
I never forgot that honor we had
Riskin' our lives 'coz we were so bad
The day I'm gonna take your heart
Isn't far
That's right, my name is G-GODA!
SCREECH
Goda.
I'm a househusband, yo
My apron is my battle gear
Housework, cooking, and cleaning
Water-wash, machine wash, scrub wash
Humidifier, dehumidifier, purifier
Audience! Make some noise!
What?
We haven't forgotten how you busted us out
But now, it's my turn
For the victory shout
Teriyaki, sukiyaki, tamagoyaki
I love 'em all!
This is a freestyle rap battle.
Their beliefs or the other's weaknesses
are exchanged in improvised rhymes.
Fun fact, a famous rapper was recently
caught using a voice actor in a track--
Immortal Tatsu, you've gone soft
You have to diss me, yo
That's the point of freestyle
Your clothes are weird!
COLLAPSE
That's not even true.
Well, I was only…
Sorry.
-He apologized!
-He apologized!
Let's try that again.
Okay? Come on.
Look, how about that?
The theme is "meat."
BAM
I don't do themes, yo.
What's up with all the noise?
The pork's price makes you smile
Wha…
Today's winner for dinner is ox tongue
That price of chicken is a sin
He's obviously up to somethin'
The meat is juicy
But the owner looks like Kewpie!
SMACK
Ah, "cutie" is a better fit…
Yo, it's my turn next
I'll blow you away with no-gimmick lyrics
The fat runs through the meat
The sense runs through me
Yeah, the meat…
Um, you cut the meat
And get the bones… No…
Try and cut that meat, the bones…
That's it… I'm done!
Fried chicken, pork cutlet
Grilled meat for all
If you want meat
Come to The Ultimate Meat
Well, um…
You're not supposed to sing…
The Way of the Househusband.
Okay, I'm off to my business trip.
I'll probably be back tomorrow night.
Do you have your purse and cell phone?
And your portable umbrella?
It's just you here,
so why not take it easy for once?
Have a good trip…
Take it easy…
Right.
Take it easy.
The weather's looking good.
Normally, I would wash the sheets
and hang up the futon.
But today, I'm gonna take it easy.
SPRAY
This fabric refresher will do the job!
Citrus fragrance!
Usually, I bring in the washing
and fold each item one at a time,
but there's this one sick hack I got
off the internet, strictly non-legit.
Put the clothes away
while they're still on the hanger!
I was gonna simmer
some veggies in stock for dinner,
but why wait for
the water to boil up first?
Just keep the lid on.
Now for some of that stuff
no one goes near.
BLOW
NESSIN FOODS
Cup noodles for lunch.
I'm such a junkie.
DING DONG
I got fired from my part-time job,
so I came by.
You…
Huh? You're by yourself today?
Yeah, I was planning on taking it easy.
Let's do it
good and proper then, shall we?
Two adults playing video games
in the middle of a weekday…
This guy
is no amateur!
CLATTER
Huh? Boss?
I need to do some washing,
grocery shopping, and bath cleaning too.
I'm stepping down.
What?
Are you bailing out already?
I thought you said you would take it easy!
Okay, then. We can do one last thing.
Kick back and eat some snacks,
look at your phone,
and before you know it…
SNORE
Wow, his laziness is on another level.
This guy's a true master!
Shit, not good.
I can't take it anymore.
The washing needs doing…
And the bath…
GRAB
Masa? Let go!
You promised you would take it easy!
Come on, more…

Well, you're lively.

Stop it.
I won't have your back
if you make trouble.
I've got my eyes on
that premium Niigata rice.
Hmph, you two don't have what it takes.
Stop with the games.
There's no way
you'll be able to get that rice.
I'd prefer the hot springs trip.

EPISODE 46
-Two, please.
-Right this way.
This place
is a battlefield.
I haven't been to a buffet in forever.
You have 90 minutes to enjoy the buffet.
Okay.
Come on, let's go.
I gotta get my money's worth.
That's a wide range of dishes.
How should I plan my attack?
Wow, this looks really good!
I could try a bit of each,
but there are a lot of dishes.
If I go straight for the carbs,
that will fill me up too soon.
First…
I'll be sensible and attack the salad!
What? Starting with curry?
Is she actually serious?
Gotta say though,
this main course lineup is top quality!
GULP
This is some risky business,
but I can't stop myself!
Seafood doria, fresh out of the oven!
Oh, god, look at that!
There's no more space on my plate!
I've been had.
I thought you couldn't decide,
but you sure took a lot.
Yeah, too much.
Are you all right?
It ain't over yet.
The highlight has yet to come.
SWISH
BAM
Move it.
Don't say you want it too?
The variety of
carefully cultivated fresh fruits.
Fuwafuwa Kitchen's special creation.
The fruit tart,
amply filled with cream cheese.
-Do you even understand what this is?
-What?
The farmers brought up these fruits
like their own little babies!
The soft, velvety cream
in harmony with the sweet and sour fruits!
-That crisp pastry crust!
-The contrast in those flavors!
They're too close.
MARCH
CRASH
Such power!
EMPTY
This is a battlefield.
-So strong!
-So strong!
RETREAT
Huh? What about dessert?
Was it gone?
I got some earlier. Wanna share?
COVER
Miku…
EPISODE 47
That's a lot of food you've bought.
What's it for?
What comes to mind
when you think of family get-togethers?
What?
Hot pot, of course!
Mother, Father.
Hi, Tatsu.
Go on, dear.
Well, um…
Let's have some hot pot.
What? Uh…
Sure.
Okay, I'll start prepping.
PAT
You stay here.
Huh?
You're going to…
PLONK
ROLL
Father!
He moves just like Miku!
Father!
SPLASH, SPRAY
Father!
Father!
Tatsu.
That man cooks like a runaway train.
Can he be stopped?
Tacchan.
I'll help as well.
Miku? No…
Dad, how can I help?
This is not good!
Both hooligans have joined forces!
Okay, you can make the stock.
Okay.
The stock is the hot pot's lifeblood…
That's the one thing I won't let you harm!
-Takes you back, doesn't it, Miku?
-Huh?
SLASH
We used to cook like this together.
You'd come up and offer to help.
SLASH
Did I?
SPLODGE
You were always a reckless kid.
I wasn't that bad!
You'd fall while running,
throw things, clothesline people…
STICKY
My blood froze just watching.
But now…
It seems I don't have to worry about
protecting you anymore.
I'm here for her. Don't you worry.
Tatsu.
Okay, we'll end it
with curry powder and ponzu.
Rice, udon, and mochi.
Let's put it all in.
Oh, no.
Ready!
The power of a housewife…
Even hooligans will step in line!
Mother, I have nothing but respect.
-Sorry?
-What?
