Godai:
(n) February. Entering the season of secondary exams...
Yotsuya:
I really can't see how you can take this many exams.
Ichinose:
It'll take most of his efforts.
Akemi:
It won't be good enough, though.
Godai:
Grrrr.... Will you all!
Yotsuya:
Skin tension, not up to normal. Nose tip dry. Lack of shine on tongue.
He doesn't seem to be in very good shape at all.
Godai:
Don't make judgements about me!
Ichinose:
Hmmm. I thought today's N College would be against the runner up...
Yotsuya:
Pretty unlikely.
Akemi:
I'll go for total wipe out.
Godai:
..........
Yotsuya:
I can't decide which one is the best.

Maison Ikkoku Episode 04
Kyoko-san Worried! Godai-kun Has Entrance Exams [Spring Still Far Away]
Kyoko:
Did you get everything. You didn't forget anything?
Godai:
I'm all set.
Kyoko:
You do have the exam ID, I hope...
Godai:
Come on, of course I have it. See?
Kyoko:
Today is N college's exam, right?
Godai:
Yes. The safety.
Kyoko:
Isn't this the K college ID?
Godai:
AAARRRGGHHH!!!! This time, it's the right one.
Kyoko:
Godai-san..
Godai:
Yes?
Kyoko:
Please do your best!
Godai:
Yes! I'll do my best!
Souichiro:
"baw?"
Godai:
Yes! I'll do my best!
Passer-by:
Hey watch it!
Godai:
Yes! I'll do my best!
Driver:
Look Out! Watch where you're going!
Godai:
Yes! I'll do my best!
Kyoko:
If this is what its like on the first day, I wonder how the rest will be...
Yotsuya:
Kanrinin-san, bias!
Ichinose:
I didn't know you cared so much for the ronin.
Akemi:
Younger man, not too bad I guess.
Kyoko:
Wait just a minute here! What are you talking about?
Ichinose:
You love the ronin, don't you?
Kyoko:
That's just your imagination!
Ichinose:
``Godai-san, please do your best!''
Kyoko:
Please cut it out! What's wrong with a manager worrying about a tenant?
Ichinose:
``Godai-san, please do your best!''
Kyoko:
KNOCK IT OFF! If Godai-san fails again this year, you're responsible for it!
Akemi:
Kanrinin-san really is mad.
Ichinose:
But...
Ichinose + Yotsuya + Akemi:
"Godai-san, please do your best!, right?"
Godai:
(Godai's writing "Godai-san, please do your best!")
Yes! I'll do my best!.... (So, there goes N College. DS)
Akemi:
The first day, a disaster.
Godai:
Hold on! The results haven't been announced yet!
Yotsuya:
Impossible, but...
Ichinose:
Even if you fail today, there are more to come.
Yotsuya:
Lousy shots, if you fire enough, you might hit the target.
Akemi:
Keep on failing like this and I'll get the jackpot!
Godai:
This is not cheering me up at all!
Godai:
(n) It's not that Akemi-san's words affected me,
but my exam results were just one disaster after another.
And the remaining schedule is coming to an end.
Kyoko:
Godai-san, Please do your best!
Godai:
Yes! I'll do my best!
Kyoko:
Godai-san, Please do your best!
Godai:
Yes!
Kyoko:
Godai-san, Please do your best!
Godai:
Yes! I'll do my best!
Kentaro:
I'm home, Souichiro-san. Have you eaten lunch yet?
Kyoko:
I wonder how Godai-san is doing? Yeeek!! Godai-san, what are you..
Ichinose:
Does the ronin do these kind of things every day?
Kyoko:
.... Ichinose-san! Would you cut out the bad jokes?!
Ichinose:
Well... you've got pretty good hips. You can have lots of healthy kids, with these.
Kyoko:
What're you talking about?
Ichinose:
I'll drop by your room for a visit later.
Kyoko:
Wait... Ichinose-san?
Kyoko:
Omiai? (An "Omiai" is sort of informal blind date for potential marriage DS)
Ichinose:
Come on, take a look. I've got plenty... How about this one?
He's a doctor. And this one? He looks good. He's a graduate of Keioh University.
Kyoko:
Uh, Wait...
Ichinose:
No? You have strict preferences don't you? Lets see. How about this one?
Kyoko:
Uh excuse me..
Godai:
Oh that was hard.
Since I've come this far, I guess I'll have to gamble on the final hopefuls.
Ichinose:
Then what type of guy do you like?
Kyoko:
Well... I am, you see...
Ichinose:
It's good experience to have at least one omiai.
Kyoko:
But... I'm not thinking of getting married at all.
Ichinose:
Why? You're at a suitable age. You got somebody in mind?
Kyoko:
Well, yes and no..
Godai:
Yes, or no, make up your mind!
Ichinose:
You haven't made up your mind.
Kyoko:
It's more like I haven't settled my feelings about him..
Ichinose:
And where is he?
Kyoko:
He's close to me... always. He loves me, and I...
I wonder if I should talk about Souichiro-san.
Ichinose:
You love the ronin that much?
Kyoko:
....
Godai:
Really?
Kyoko:
How did you come up with Godai-san?
Ichinose:
Well, he's the only guy I can come up with who fits the description.
And you seem to care a lot about him, too.
Kyoko:
WHEN HAVE I CARED ABOUT HIM?!
Ichinose:
That "yeek, Godai-san" earlier.
Kyoko:
Would you please not mention that?!
Godai:
What? She shouted my name? I'm so happy.
Ichinose:
But you better give him up. His future is hopeless.
Godai:
What the...
Ichinose:
At best, he'll manage to get into a 2nd class college.
No special skills, Weak willed, and undependable.
Godai:
.....................
Kyoko:
You don't have to go that far. Being a ronin for a year or two is just average.
Besides, he's kind and gentle. What determines a man is his heart.
Godai:
Alright! Alright! Alright! Alright! Alright!
Banzai! Banzai! Alright!
Kentaro:
Dropout.
Ichinose:
OK, I understand. I'll retreat for today.
Kyoko:
Ichinose-san, wait. This is all a misunderstanding. Please hear my side of the story.
Ichinose:
Don't worry I'll keep it a secret from the ronin.
Godai:
Oh, er.. hello..
Ichinose:
You, you heard us? What kind of man are you? Come over here!
Godai:
Ou!
Kyoko:
Idiot! Why are you blushing?!
He misunderstood me. I'm sorry! Souichiro-san!
Ichinose:
Really, what kind of man are you, eavesdropping on womens' conversations?
Kyoko:
Really!
Godai:
But your voice was so loud, I couldn't help overhearing you.
Ichinose:
Then why do you have to stick your ear to the door?
Kyoko:
Really! REALLY!
Ichinose:
Don't you understand Kanrinin-san's feelings?
So you're you're going to make me say it at last?
Kyoko:
???
Ichinose:
She loves you... And that's why she wanted it kept secret!
So she wouldn't disturb you while you're busy with exams!
Kyoko:
!!!
Godai:
!! ......... So, that was it..
Ichinose:
So, that was it.
Yotsuya:
Yes, that was it.
Akemi:
I see, so that was it after all.
Kyoko:
This is terrible. What a misunderstanding....
Kentaro:
See you later, Souichiro-san! Such dirty teeth. Are you brushing your teeth?
Souichiro:
Baw?
Ken:
?
Godai:
See you later. See you later. See you later. See you later!
Ichinose:
Will you be quiet? When are you going to leave?
Today's is the primary target, isn't it? You're gonna be late.
Godai:
Well... Sorry.
Ichinose:
You won't go? Just a moment. "Godai-san, please do your best."
Godai:
STOP THAT!
Kyoko:
No way I'm going to make this misunderstanding worse.
Ichinose:
He's gone. Look, a typical juken student. So dull. Must be a ronin.
[Daydream mode activated! ...]
Godai:
IKyoko-san...
Kyoko:
Godai-san!
Godai:
Kanrinin-san!
Kyoko:
Godai-san, congratulations! If you would accept my kiss as a gift...
Godai:
Kanrinin-san!... CRASH!!!
[... Day dream mode deactivated!]
Godai:
Doesn't look too good this year....
Voice:
K College Station! K College Station!
Godai:
Oh, no!
Passer-by:
Er, Are you already...
Voice:
Good day. Sign [Tokeizaka shopping district]
Kyoko:
I must be a heartless woman. Today's is the most important exam of all.
He must be in the middle of it right now. Godai-san, please do your best...
Souichiro:
Baw?
Kyoko:
No! Souichiro-san! I'm just worrying about Godai-san as a manager.
Souichiro:
Baaw?
Kyoko:
Really! I don't have any feelings beyond that!
Please believe me, Souichiro-san!
Passer-by 1:
Wonder what their relationship is?
Passer-by 2:
Strange affair.
Passer-by 1:
This kind of thing should be reported to the health department.
Kyoko:
I'm being misunderstood.
Kyoko:
Godai-san!
Waiter:
Come on in. Come on in...
Kyoko:
Godai-san should be in the middle of exam..
God, I must be really worrying about him...
Kyoko:
Stupid me. How could Godai-san be here?
Godai:
... There...!
Waiter:
Excuse me, mister. I would appreciate it if you wouldn't do that kind of thing.
Kyoko:
God, I must really be worrying about him. But this is a part of my job as a manager.
Ichinose:
Kanrinin-san.
Kyoko:
No, it's just a misunderstanding!
Ichinose:
What is?
Kyoko:
Nothing.
Pub boss:
Welcome!
Ichinose:
Come on, get inside! This is my favorite place.
Kyoko:
But I can't drink this early in the day...
Ichinose:
Now, where do we sit?
Waiter:
Please have a seat at the table, it should be quieter.
Godai:
Why is Kyoko-san here?!.....
Ichinose:
Large beer and tsukune atarime for two!
(Atarime is another way of saying surume, flattened dried squid.
Tuskune is short for tsukune potato, which is close to yam. DS)
Godai:
What should I do?
Waiter:
Mister, are you feeling alright?
Godai:
Is there any other way out?
Waiter:
That's the only one!
(I like this guy's over gesture..... DS)
Ichinose:
Have a drink, especially since you're worried.
Kyoko:
I don't have anything to worry about.
Ichinose:
You're still worried about this morning, right?
Kyoko:
I'm just worried about Godai-san professionally.
Ichinose:
Pure love, eh?
Kyoko:
Will you!
Ichinose:
Wow, what a way to drink..
Kyoko:
I'm the manager! (also called janitor)
Ichinose:
Here, have another.
Kyoko:
What's wrong with the manager worrying about the tenants?!
Godai:
................
Waiter:
Mister, the bill!
Ichinose:
Is that really all?
Kyoko:
Well, It's...
Ichinose:
OK, Fine.
Customer 1:
Well, lets get going.
Customer 2:
Wait, I have to use to washroom.

Customer 2:
Thank you. OK, lets go.
Pub boss:
Thank you, come again.

He must be in the middle of the afternoon exam.

I'm feeling sick...

Why don't you go to the washroom? We're gonna be drinking more.
Customer 1:
Careful!
Kyoko:
oops.. sorry
Waiter:
Are you alright?
Kyoko:
.....Godai-san! WHAT ON EARTH ARE YOU DOING HERE?!
Godai:
Er... There were too many difficult questions, so I thought it was a no go.
Kyoko:
It can't be. In the middle of...
Ichinose:
Can't or not, he's here eating lunch, right?
Godai:
Yeah, well...
Kyoko:
I'm really disappointed in you!
Listen up! The next exam, I'm going with you. That way, you wouldn't run away!
Godai:
Just a second. I'm not a kid.
Kyoko:
What are you talking about, after that childish act!
I've made up my mind, alright?!
Godai:
Yes...
Sakamoto:
Godai, what is she to you?
Godai:
Well, she insisted on coming with me.
Kyoko:
Godai-san, I may be repeating myself but...
Godai:
Yes, what is it, Kanrinin-san?
Kyoko:
Did I actually say that I'm coming with you?
Godai:
Yes, you did! Mrs. Ichinose is the eye witness!
Sakamoto:
Better get going.
Godai:
Er.. could you do the usual one?
Kyoko:
Oh... Godai-san, please do your best.

I have a good feeling about this exam...
Kyoko:
Godai-san! Your bag! Your bag!
Godai:

Idiot! What're you doing?!

Darn it.. It's like having a dumb brother. Really!
