- 4. は はじ じめ めま まし して て わ わた たし し わ わ Jiro Nimbus で です す、 ど どう うぞ ぞよ よろ ろし しく くお おね ねが がい いし しま ます す 。 I'm 9 years old and I live at the bottom of a mountain in Japan. This is my village. My house is directly beneath that mountain. Ha HaJi JiMe MeMa MaShi ShiTe Te Wa WaTa TaShi Shi Wa Wa Jiro Nimbus De DeSu Su, , Do DoU UZo Zo Yo YoLo LoShi ShiKu Ku O ONi NiGa GaI I Shi ShiMa MaSu Su. . How do you do? My name is Jiro Nimbus, pleased to meet you. Youngblood, I hate to weigh in like this, but you didn't explain the setup. Allow me... Now, if you see a bubble with these characters at the very top, that is hiragana you're looking at. This is the most basic alphabet of the Japanese language. Now the second line is how the Japanese characters sound using English letters. Sound out these letters as best as you can to produce the Japanese words. The third line is the closest possible English translation. Nimbus M.D.
- 5. Playing... it's what Jiro Nimbus does best. Today, he's playing Super Sailor Samurai, but when he heard a loud grumble, all playing stopped.
- 6. Jiro gives his piggy a good shake. Money falls from his tummy and Jiro puts the coins in his pocket for safe keeping. Mom, you sound lame. When the rain calls, I must go!
- 7. How you hanging? It was going to rain and Jiro loved how the droplets tickled his cheek. But before he would ever step foot outside, he needed to dress the part. I found you! eep! Or was it just your belly? No clouds in the sky, Jiro. Are you sure you heard thunder? Putting on a raincoat was no problem for Jiro, not a problem at all. Those pesky galoshes however... they always gave him the boot! Jiro never played alone. He always had Sib by his side. Jiro and Sib are best friends forever. They do everything together and are rarely seen apart. Both.
- 8. My arm is numb. Jiro waves goodbye for so long that he thought his arm just might fall off. When he finally left his front door, the sky was already cloudy and the air was very bitter.
- 9. A walk through the lonely forest is always better with a friend. This forest was given its name after people reported seeing spirits walking through treetops. They say these spirits get very lonely sometimes. To keep them company, people come from all over the world to visit. They even bring gifts for good fortune. This place is creepy.
- 10. The song of the forest guides Jiro along. They’re really quiet today. 😢 GOOD! 🌝 That's a little harsh. I happen to like how they sound. Leaping like a frog, Jiro lands in front of an old building. He's the only one who can squeeze through the entrance and so he does just that. Jump! Oh Jiro, you crybaby... These birds are terrible singers.
- 11. There's a secret garden on the other side. It's very beautiful for a unkempt garden, but this is hardly what Jiro came to see. The air stinks and I love it!
- 12. At the edge of the garden, Jiro places Sib in lily pad pond. A gentle breeze carries them to open waters. I can feel the rain! Do you feel it too, Jiro? 😓 🌚
- 13. Watch that breath around me! Then stay out of my way small fries! In these waters, the waves quickly become impossible. Before the two were swept over the edge of a waterfall, Sib used magic gust. Sorry, pal. Sib's magic breath lifted the two out of the water. They took off into the sky like a rather odd looking bird. 😡
- 14. It's raining! Do you want a cookie or something? 😍 The rain was falling hard when Jiro arrived into Tokyo city. Tokyo has many buildings and several of them have colorful signs all over them.
- 15. Jiro and Sib carefully float down to the city below. Everyone is so busy that no one even notices them.
- 16. Jiro walks down a narrow street. He stops in front of a brown machine that sits next to a ramen shop. Ramen is a very special noodle. It can be served either cold or hot! There are many types of ramen in Japan and Jiro loves them all. The machine has several pictures of ramen to choose from. Jiro picks the ramen he likes best then presses the button. After Jiro pays, the machine spits out a ticket. Jiro walks into the ramen shop after saying goodbye to the kind machine. This shop is named The Sakura, much like the blooming blossoms on a cherry tree.
- 17. The Sakura is Jiro's number one ramen shop in Tokyo. As soon as he walks through the door, Jiro is met with a surprise. His classmate Toji is just behind the counter. Toji is also Jiro's secret classroom crush. Thanks for the ticket, Jiro! I bet you're shocked to see me here...? This is my uncle's shop and I just started working here. You are very sloppy. Ha... You're right! I am shocked. 💓 Is that your crush, beautiful Toji? He is quite tall for 13. 😅
- 18. I want to take a vacation that has clear water, sandy beaches, and sun. Tons of Sun! It would be so much sun that I probably wouldn’t need you. It figures. You probably want to take Toji instead. Waiting could be boring if you didn't know the many ways to pass time. Talking Gaming Sleeping よ よし し。 。 Yo Yoshi shi. Let’s do this! I got the sticks! は はい い、 、ど どぞ ぞ。 。 Ha Hai i, , Do Dozo zo. . Here you are. You're all thumbs.
- 19. Unless you can’t wait! Make the perfect break. い いた ただ だき きま ます す。 。 I Ita tada daki kima masu su. Let’s eat! STEP 1 STEP 1 STEP 2 STEP 2 NOM NOM NOM ご ごち ちそ そう うさ さま ま で でし した た。 Go Gochi chiso sou usa sama ma de deshi shita ta. Thank you for this meal. Jiro's ramen has seaweed, mushrooms, scallions, a boiled egg, and duck meat. The ramen is simmering in a tasty broth. STEP 3 STEP 3 STEP 4 STEP 4 STEP 5 STEP 5
- 20. The ramen made Jiro's heart sing. Jiro thanked Toji and his uncle for the meal. ど どう うも もあ あり りが がと とう うご ござ ざい いま ます す。 Do Do- -mo mo a ari riga gato to- -go goza zai ima masu su. . Thank you very much! Thank you very much!
- 21. We are being followed. When Jiro steps outside, the sun is shinning and the streets are sparkling. It's a picture perfect sight, but Jiro can't stick around for too long. Sib and Jiro race around the corner and quickly disappear into the crowd. Well we better get you back before the rest of them show up.
- 22. Can it follow us up stairs? Yes! Yes it can! Hurry Jiro! I’m getting tired from all this running. Are you up charged yet? I don’t know. Jiro wants to stay in Tokyo longer, but he really must go right now!
- 23. Then let’s find out! な なに に?! ?! na nani ni?! ?! what?! What do you think you’re doing? I got a bad feeling about this! JIROooo! Jiro and Sib quickly take flight and get away just in time.
- 24. Sib uses magic gust once again. The magical wind carries them home safely. Along the way, several birds stop to speak with Jiro and rest their wings. Can we speed this up? I want to make it back before dinner. 😋 😡
