Gegege No Kitaro: Le chasseur Yokai

Chapitre 18

(Medama, his friends and the girl and her family arrived in the Gegege forest)

Medama-Oyaji: Okay, you can put us here. (once posed with his friends, he made an incantation which brings Sunakake, Ittan and Nurikabe back to their normal size)

Ittan-Momen: Phew, it's nice to find again the outdoors.

Nurikabe: Nevertheless, little one and her parents, thank you for helping us out.

Father: Oh, you know, it's not much.

Mother: After all, you tried to protect us.

Mother: Yes, because of what happened, the police will suspect us of having been complicit in your release.

Father: And it would be risky to go home.

Nurikabe: I suggest that we shelter this family.

Medama-Oyaji: In the treehouse, there is a secret hiding place. They will be safe.

Father: Well, since we have no choice...

Mother: We will do that.

Girl: Me too.

Sunakake-Baba: I will follow you. You will need someone who can look after you if you have a problem.

( The family and their daughter as well as Sunakake went up on Ittan-Momen and they left )

Nurikabe: But, Medama, what do we do now?

(On the side of Kyushu-tai)

Kyushu-tai (using a hole-making power): I wanted better resistance from you but you've been a nuisance for too long. Any last wishes?

Kitaro (weak): Leave ... My ... family alone! Just like ... Neko ... And this girl ....
