Crayon Shin-chan: Fierceness That Invites Storm! The Adult Empire Strikes Back

No! No! I wanna go! I wanna see the moon rock!

We can't! The line's too long.

What is this?

The World Expo.

World Expo?

ln 1970, the Japan World Expo, Expo '70, was held in Osaka.

Under the theme Progress and Harmony for Mankind,

77 nations, companies, and organizations participated,

and over the six months it was held, it had 64.21 million visitors?!

No way! That's over half Japan's population now!

lt was the record for a World Expo, and possibly Japan's greatest event.

Wow...

Old folks know old stuff, huh Mom?

I'm not old! It's this book!

It was so big and full of variety, you couldn't see it all in one day.

Japan Pavilion

People are lining up.

It took hours to get into popular pavilions.

He's signing autographs! Is he famous?

He isn't.

Foreigners were rare then, so pavilion hosts and hostesses were often asked.

Hostesses? Dad's favorite?

Yes... No! Not hostesses like that!

They were better known as companions.

Look! Like them.

Wow! I fancy companions too!

Hello! Taro! Taro Okamoto!

I'm Shinnosuke Nohara. I love you! Rendezvous!

- Konnichi wa. - Hi!

Hey companion ladies! Sign this for me!

My undies! Mom, gimme a pen!

Whoa! Hot diggity!

So why did we come here anyway?

Your dad wanted to.

Where is he?

He should be here soon.

Attention all visitors.

A monster is approaching the expo.

Please exit the grounds and take shelter immediately.

Shinnosuke! That's our cue!

Todger!

Expo Defenders, tally ho!

Hiroshi here! It's heading for the Soviet Pavilion!

Intercept immediately! I'm on my way!

Okay! Let's go, Shinnosuke!

Yeehah!

Onward!

Move it! Misae's more monstrous than any monster! Watch out!

I'll mow you all down!

Wow! Companions!

You silly boy!

Stick to the mission!

It's huge!

It's huge!

Misae's butt.

Don't look at it!

How dare you threaten this pageant! Eat this!

Shinnosuke! Time to attack!

The Soviet Pavilion's lost!

Oh no! Another monster!

Er... No, that's the Gas Pavilion.

Gas?

And that's the U.S. Pavilion. It had a moon rock.

Wow! It's like Tokyo Dome!

The moon rock! I haven't seen it yet!

You dirty...

This ends now!

- Dad! - Honey!

Dammit!

Oh! It's Hiroshi-Sun! Hiroshi-Sun's here!

It's only Dad.

No! Hiroshi-Sun is an all-powerful hero from outer space...

Help us, Hiroshi-Sun! Defeat the monster!

Stop hogging it! Let me have a go!

You no-good monster! Take me on!

Shinnosuke, stop it. Sorry, that's a cut.

Cut! He got over-excited?

Don't butt in!

Dad, leave it to me!

You're strong, kid.

I'm sorry.

Come here now.

Sorry about that!

Okay! Ready...

Start!

Hiroshi-Sun's charging his solar energy!

A direct hit! Expo Beam!

Amazing! He restored the pavilions!

The Expo can go on!

Thank you, Hiroshi-Sun! You saved it!

Okay! Well done!

Well done!

We'll send you the video soon.

Yes, please do!

Here, a memento.

Thank you so much!

Heh-heh! Look what I got!

I felt so embarrassed.

Yeah? You were great, Misae!

You hogged the whole thing!

Real heroes usually cover their faces!

If I did, you wouldn't know it's me.

Okay, my turn. Get changed, everyone.

Don't make that noise. You promised.

I did...

So, you're determined to go to the human world?

Yes, Father.

I want to travel to the human world and make friends.

Your little brother and sister will miss you.

Don't be sad, little brother and sister.

I'll bridge the worlds of magic and humans.

Excuse me, cut please.

You got it.

Okay, we'd better keep going.

The Rose of Versailles next!

It'll cost you.

Thank you.

We can do these nostalgic shows and stories right away.

If you prefer, we can also create an original.

- Wow! This takes me back! - Really?

They're all yours.

Have a great time.

- See you later. Be good. - See you!

Yo!

So, the gang's all here. What for?

The same reason you're here.

We meet a lot lately.

- Hey! That's mine! - It's free. Get your own.

I wanted yours, Kazama.

I love this place. All-you-can-eat snacks.

All-you-can-lie-on floors.

You're always so naive.

This 20th Century Expo makes grown-ups weird.

I know it's nostalgic, but they love it too much.

Yeah. Something's not right.

The other day, my mommy played with a doll on her own.

It's strange. My mom sometimes talks like a kid.

Not just our mothers, our teachers love it too.

Is nostalgia such a good thing?

Beats me...

I guess you have to grow up to know.

Don't worry, Kazama. You'll know one day.

One day is too late!

If this goes on, my mom might stop being my mom.

Is this your first time? Our 20th Century Expo has

shops selling many 20th century goods...

Parks for enjoying beloved pastimes...

Studios where you can become your childhood heroes...

Restaurants serving nostalgic foods...

Here, you can be reunited with anything from your memories.

Relive your childhood, to your heart's content.

Welcome to 20th Century Expo!

20th Century Expo

That was so much fun!

I'm so glad it was built in Kasukabe.

I ain't glad at all!

Only you two have fun and buy stuff.

Take us somewhere different!

Lots more vintage cars lately.

Having fun at the 20th Century Expo's not enough.

Wow! That's so cool!

Let's get a vintage car too.

Good idea!

Loads of vinyl records now in stock!

Wow, groovy!

Kasukabe's much better now.

Nohara

Hey, Dad!

Go for it, Hero-Sun!

I want to watch Action Mask!

No, Little Witch Sayuri is next.

Action Mask!

You watch too! It's better than Action Mask.

Himawari, let's watch Little Witch Sayuri later.

Hey, that big announcement from 20th Century Expo is on TV tonight.

Oh yeah. What time?

On air in T-30 minutes.

30 minutes till the 21st century ends.

It was so short.

It was long enough for me, Chako.

The stench of its reality is too much for me to bear.

I want to be rid of it.

You can be.

Adults love the 20th century scent you created.

Of course they do.

They want to return, to the 20th century.

The future will disappear.

The future is eternal.

We're in the 21st century we once dreamed of.

Alert all units.

All units, this is Kasukabe HQ. Our leader speaks.
