Shoukichi and the others
commenced the next operation.
:28:11
The absentee landlord
of Hikage Mountain,...
:28:13
...who returned with
the lumber contractors muttered,...
:28:17
``Did we have this many o-jizo statues
on my mountain?'' and shook his head.
:28:22
And then he said, ``Maybe I should wait
and postpone signing the contract.''
:28:27
Kumataro, the tanuki who stayed
in the temple in Umanose Mountain,...
:28:31
...disguised himself as a white fox
from a well-known local legend...
:28:35
...during one of the ritual prayers
to move the statues.
:28:42
The voice of the white fox, which resembled a scream,...
:28:44
...overwhelmed the hired priest
and the ceremony was canceled.
:28:48
The parishioner
petitioned the authorities...
:28:52
...to reconsider moving
the statues and the road project.
:28:57
The tanuki really poured it on.
:29:09
Various tanuki groups competed...
:29:11
...and used their recently mastered art
of disguise in various guerrilla tactics.
:29:16
Come and drop by...
:29:20
Go away!
:29:26
Take it away!
:29:32
Let's pack up
the leftover food and garbage.
:29:35
The food!
:29:36
Leave it here!
:29:44
Is anything wrong, miss?
:29:51
Hey, what's the matter?
