00:02:31,151 --> 00:02:35,This stomach belongs
to the protagonist of our story.

00:02:36,657 --> 00:02:39,Signs of cancer
are already present,

00:02:39,660 --> 00:02:42,but he doesn't know that yet.

00:02:44,998 --> 00:02:47,Public affairs section chief

00:03:11,817 --> 00:03:13,The water gives my child rashes.

00:03:14,027 --> 00:03:16,Where citizens
and city hall meet

00:03:16,363 --> 00:03:19,please don't hesitate to submit
and it breeds mosquitoes.

00:03:19,533 --> 00:03:21,Your complaints
and reouests here

00:03:21,868 --> 00:03:23,can't you do something?

00:03:23,620 --> 00:03:27,It would make a great playground
if you filled it in.

00:03:28,625 --> 00:03:30,Just a moment, please.

00:03:37,843 --> 00:03:41,Sir, they've come to complain
about open sewage.

00:03:41,555 --> 00:03:43,Send them to public works.

00:03:48,895 --> 00:03:52,Here's our protagonist.

00:03:52,899 --> 00:03:57,But what a bore it would be
to describe his life now.

00:03:57,446 --> 00:03:59,Why?

00:03:59,322 --> 00:04:02,Because he's only killing time.

00:04:02,743 --> 00:04:05,He's never actually lived

00:04:05,412 --> 00:04:08,you can't call this living.

00:04:18,091 --> 00:04:19,Miss odagiri...

00:04:20,010 --> 00:04:22,How dare you,
during business hours?

00:04:22,554 --> 00:04:24,It's just so funny!

00:04:24,264 --> 00:04:25,What is?

00:04:26,099 --> 00:04:29,The “liar's club.”
someone sent it around.

00:04:30,020 --> 00:04:31,Read it to us.

00:04:37,444 --> 00:04:40,“So you've never taken
a vacation?”

00:04:40,614 --> 00:04:41,“That's right.”

00:04:41,990 --> 00:04:44,“Because city hall
can't run without you?”

00:04:44,743 --> 00:04:47,“No, because everyone
would realize

00:04:47,287 --> 00:04:50,city hall doesn't
need me at all.”

00:05:03,595 --> 00:05:06,This isn't even worth watching.

00:05:07,057 --> 00:05:09,He might as well be a corpse.

00:05:09,976 --> 00:05:14,In fact, he's been dead
for some 20 years now

00:05:16,024 --> 00:05:18,before that,
he had some life in him.

00:05:19,110 --> 00:05:22,He even tried
to do a little real work.

00:05:27,327 --> 00:05:30,Proposal for increasing
departmental efficiency

00:05:30,747 --> 00:05:33,submitted 11/7/by kanji watanabe

00:05:36,545 --> 00:05:40,but there's nothing left
of that will or passion.

00:05:41,299 --> 00:05:44,They've been completely
worn down

00:05:44,719 --> 00:05:48,by the minutia
of the bureaucratic machine

00:05:48,306 --> 00:05:51,and the meaningless
bus yness it breeds.

00:05:56,898 --> 00:05:59,Busy... so terribly busy.

00:06:00,110 --> 00:06:04,But in reality,
he does nothing at all

00:06:04,447 --> 00:06:07,besides protecting
his own position.

00:06:08,076 --> 00:06:11,The best way to protect
your place in this world

00:06:11,538 --> 00:06:13,is to do nothing at all.

00:06:16,209 --> 00:06:18,But is this enough?

00:06:24,551 --> 00:06:26,Is this really enough
00:06:28,096 --> 00:06:31,for him to Stan'
thinking seriously about this,

00:06:31,558 --> 00:06:34,his stomach
will have to get a lot worse,

00:06:35,061 --> 00:06:40,and he'll have to rack up
a lot more wasted time.

00:06:40,942 --> 00:06:44,But any proposal
for creating a park

00:06:44,571 --> 00:06:46,must go to the parks department.

00:06:47,324 --> 00:06:50,This seems to be more
a matter of sanitation.

00:06:50,952 --> 00:06:53,Talk to your
district health center.

00:06:53,997 --> 00:06:55,See the sanitation department.

00:06:56,458 --> 00:06:57,See environmental sanitation.

00:06:59,002 --> 00:07:00,Preventive sanitation.

00:07:01,087 --> 00:07:02,Disease control.

00:07:03,298 --> 00:07:05,Lots of mosquitoes?

00:07:05,508 --> 00:07:08,That's a job for pest control.

00:07:12,140 --> 00:07:16,The problem is seeping waste,
which means...

00:07:16,853 --> 00:07:20,It's a problem for
the sewage department at city hall.

00:07:21,441 --> 00:07:24,That was originally a culvert.

00:07:24,569 --> 00:07:27,That is, it had a road over it.

00:07:27,614 --> 00:07:29,You'll need the okay
of the roads department.

00:07:30,408 --> 00:07:34,City planning doesn't have
a policy for such cases.

00:07:34,746 --> 00:07:36,Go to zoning.

00:07:37,040 --> 00:07:42,The fire department objected
to filling that cesspool.

00:07:42,963 --> 00:07:45,They need it because
water pressure is bad there.

00:07:46,091 --> 00:07:47,Are you kidding?

00:07:47,759 --> 00:07:50,What we need is water,

00:07:50,220 --> 00:07:54,not sewage that breeds mosquitoes
and causes rashes.

00:07:54,641 --> 00:07:58,Imagine cleaning that sewage
out of our hoses!

00:07:58,895 --> 00:08:03,If there were a kiddie pool there,
that'd be great for us too.

00:08:04,567 --> 00:08:07,What about
your local school district?

00:08:07,529 --> 00:08:10,They should have
a child welfare section.

00:08:11,866 --> 00:08:16,But this problem
doesn't only affect children.

00:08:16,329 --> 00:08:20,Rebuilding all the schools
has exhausted our resources.

00:08:20,875 --> 00:08:23,A problem this big
should be handled

00:08:23,420 --> 00:08:26,by your city councilman.

00:08:27,048 --> 00:08:30,Sure, I'll write an introduction
to the deputy mayor.

00:08:31,052 --> 00:08:34,Take my business card.
He'll see you right away.

00:08:37,058 --> 00:08:39,Please have a seat.

00:08:39,227 --> 00:08:42,Thank you for all your efforts.

00:08:43,106 --> 00:08:46,There's really nothing
we welcome more

00:08:46,484 --> 00:08:50,than folks like you
who bring grievances like this

00:08:50,864 --> 00:08:53,directly to our attention.

00:08:54,242 --> 00:08:56,It's precisely
for people like you

00:08:56,995 --> 00:09:00,that we established
our new public affairs section.

00:09:00,498 --> 00:09:02,Don't hesitate
to tell them all about it!

00:09:03,126 --> 00:09:06,Show these nice folks
to the public affairs desk.

00:09:07,464 --> 00:09:11,You'll need to talk
to public works. Desk 8.

00:09:22,145 --> 00:09:25,How dare you!
Stop giving us the runaround!

00:09:25,815 --> 00:09:28,Why did you even put up
that sign?

00:09:28,193 --> 00:09:30,So we'd waste our time?

00:09:30,236 --> 00:09:33,We're not idlers
like all of you!

00:09:33,281 --> 00:09:37,We just want something done
about that stinking cesspool!

00:09:37,911 --> 00:09:40,We don't care
if it's public works, sanitation,

00:09:40,747 --> 00:09:43,public health, or whoever!

00:09:43,291 --> 00:09:45,That's for public affairs
to sort out!

00:09:45,543 --> 00:09:48,Fine! We're done with you jerks!

00:09:48,296 --> 00:09:50,All you do is laugh at us!

00:09:50,465 --> 00:09:52,You call this democracy?

00:09:52,425 --> 00:09:53,Let's go.

00:10:08,733 --> 00:10:10,Please wait a moment.

00:10:11,319 --> 00:10:14,I'm afraid our section chief
is out today.

00:10:14,948 --> 00:10:18,It would be best
if you could put it in writing.

00:10:29,587 --> 00:10:31,Public affairs section chief

00:10:35,593 --> 00:10:37,what do you think?

00:10:37,637 --> 00:10:40,The section chief
never takes time off.

00:10:40,723 --> 00:10:44,Yeah. And he's been
listless recently.

00:10:45,979 --> 00:10:49,But what'll we do
if he's out for a long time?

00:10:50,275 --> 00:10:51,Exactly.

00:10:52,152 --> 00:10:55,He wouldn't take a day off
just for a cold.

00:10:56,281 --> 00:10:58,And nothing moves here
without his seal.

00:10:58,741 --> 00:10:59,That's right.

00:11:01,452 --> 00:11:05,I must say,
it's a terrible shame.

00:11:06,082 --> 00:11:08,One more month

00:11:08,168 --> 00:11:10,and he'd have set a record

00:11:10,420 --> 00:11:12,of 30 years
without a single absence.

00:11:13,673 --> 00:11:16,467...
