#eiga no osomatsu

[blogmatsu]

Karamatsu and Ichimatsu probably did spend most of their highschool together.

As everyone reminisces about their highschool days, Karamatsu and Ichimatsu's conversation seems pretty isolated in the corner over there.

They probably would have a lot of things to talk about because of how much of their memories involve each other.

That's why when it comes to talking about highschool, Karamatsu chooses Ichimatsu to have this conversation with. (Except that it seems like Karamatsu is the only one more willing to reminisce about their past together than Ichimatsu is.)

Like the time him, Ichimatsu, and Jyushimatsu pranked Osomatsu by stealing his pants.

Or when they were teamed up during the festival.

Or when Ichimatsu and Todomatsu blatantly used him as a fort in a snowball fight.

Or how they used to always eat lunch together on the school stairwell.

(that ended sadly though.) (Ichimatsu why'd you abandon him? :(( )

So yeah, Karamatsu and Ichimatsu were really close back then, and spent most of their highschool hanging out together.

They have a lot of memories they share with each other, even if Ichimatsu refuses to talk about them now.

The official Osomatsu-san movie site has announced the "Osomatsu-san movie's 5th anniversary Alumni Reunion ~We'll do the Selective Screening again~" event where the first movie will be re-screened in 6 major theaters across Japan. A screening festival will be also be held at those theaters and will include the same season 1 episodes + special short shown at the 2017 screening festival.

Depending on the theater and screening they attend, participants will also be able to get a high-five "greeting" from one of the sextuplets and will receive one of 7 types of promotional postcards.

The movie will be shown on March 15th, followed by the screening festival on March 16th to Match 18th (the greetings will take place on the 16th and 17th only).

Translation of character introductions from anime comic "Eiga no Osomatsu san"

Osomatsu

Eldest son of the Matsuno family

ver. ADULT

NEET, virgin. Miraculous idiot with the mentality of an elementary school student. Loves pachinko, horse racing and girls.

ver. age 18

Every day he runs after girls' butts and suddenly thinks to himself. What is a sextuplets? What is an eldest son? Graduation??

Karamatsu

Second son of the Matsuno family

ver. ADULT

NEET, virgin. Always immersed in his own world and trying to look cool....but no one takes him seriously.

ver. age 18

The tense atmosphere in the house frightens him. More concerned about his brothers than himself.

Choromatsu

Third son of the Matsuno family

ver. ADULT

NEET, virgin. He seems serious, but he's not. He has high self-consciousness and gets angry when someone points it out to him.

ver. age 18

The pitch of his voice, the way he walks and the way he turns is just crazy. He seems to be the only one who looks positively on those days.

Ichimatsu

Fourth son of the Matsuno family

ver. ADULT

NEET, virgin. A dangerous guy with half-closed eyes speaks in a muttering voice. He has a low opinion of himself. Loves cats.

ver. age 18

Age where he still tries to do his best in many things. He is consciously trying to get out of the circle of his brothers.

Jyushimatsu

Fifth son of the Matsuno family

ver. ADULT

NEET, virgin. He is in charge of the excitement levels and physicality. He is kind of impossible to understand.

ver. age 18

He's sharp as shit. But even he doesn't really know why. Once he lets his guard down for a second, he immediately becomes an ordinary Jyushimatsu.

Todomatsu

The youngest of the Matsuno family

ver. ADULT

NEET, virgin. He is calculating, mocking, heartless. Nickname Totty.

ver. age 18

He is very attached to his brothers and wants to remain that way after graduation. Hates change.

Totoko

ver. ADULT

A heroine with beautiful looks but an outspoken personality. She says what she thinks as it is. She is good at body blows.

ver. age 18

A heroine who has known sextuplets since childhood. She is almost crushed by the “title” that those around her have hung on her.

Jyushimatsu's profile could be more incorrect (I had a little help from Chockie with it)(and I took a part of the translation from kaleidion (they translated Spoon.2Di profiles)(there was the same line)).

Oh my gosh, I just found a Hesokuri Wars set with Nozomi that I had never seen before?

It features cat!Nozomi too 🥺

The same account (linked as source btw!) shared all the scenes with normal human Nozomi taking a picture with the sextuplets. I had never seen the bit where she gets attacked (unbelievable that shouldn't be allowed!)

Love the way Jyushi glares at the camera haha. Grumpy boy.

some high school ai doodles! (+ bit of a lore dump under the cut ^^)

i think high school ai would be like very deadpan and kind of serious, with a bit of a trickster streak. like, in osomatsu-kun she doesnt have much of a personality and is deadpan (sort of similar to the rice balls before they became neet ai), but shes a a little bit shy and clumsy bc shes figuring out the whole living thing.

then in high school her disposition becomes more intense, on the outside she looks super serious but if you were close to her you’d know how much of a menace she is. she gets straight As and is an impeccable student, but in her free time one of her favorite things to do is to just lightly mess with the sextuplets (though sometimes she does aim to cause psychological damage) she loves scamming and tricking osomatsu and choromatsu the most, and she just likes to confuse the rest of them with her antics. she’s just a little silly ^^

then after the sextuplets start to drift apart, ai starts to become a little distant with them too. she still talks and sometimes hangs out with them, but usually she talks to each of them one on one (except for choro and todo bc they’re still around each other the most). she starts to focus more on her studies and her future, having some kind of bitter awakening to the fact that this wasn’t going to last forever, that at some point shes going to have to start thinking about the future and not dwell on the past.

there’s a moment where ichi, yanagida and their friend group are hanging out and yanagida notices ai and nudges ichi and is like “hey, isnt that your friend? you wanna invite her for karaoke after school?” and ichi is like “uhh…” and yanagida is like “are you nervous about asking her? :O do you have a crush on her?? ill ask for you then!” and he goes over to ai and ichi chases after him and he gets ai’s attention and asks her to join them after school and ai looks over at ichi who is standing behind him and he flinches and looks away and she looks back at yanagida and politely declines, saying that she needs to study and walks away and theres this awful awkward silence before yanagida is just like “…huh, bummer! sorry about that ichi!” and ichi is dying inside but hes just like “haha yeah but its fine we can just try inviting her next time!”

(there is in fact a next time but she declines again, and again, until she finally agrees but its really awkward, especially when yanagida pushes ichi and ai to do a duet together, but they ended up having a little fun by the end of it, but that only makes her leaving all the more bitter)

a year or so after graduation, she leaves for college, with a bittersweet goodbye from the sextuplets, not knowing if they’ll ever see her again :(

Osomatsu-san dTV exclusives shorts.

Requested by anon, "Eiga no Osomatsu-san Gekijou Koukai Kinen - Original Tanpen Gekijou" or "Osomatsu-san movie - Theatrical Release Commemoration - Original Shorts Theather" I'm told these were exclusive to dTV streaming.

HERE. There were 7 shorts but I pasted them together to create one file for convenience.

About episode 3: The white goat they mention is a reference to a children song where a goat eats a letter before reading it. About episode 4: Rakugo is a traditional Japanese comic storytelling where a single person speaks, standing on a platform called kouza.

Reminder of other Osomatsu subs I made:

The Hipipo Tribe and the Shining Fruit The Spirit Takoyaki Party and the Legendary Sleepover Osomatsu-san Live Action Movie

Today's translation #476

Go Yuri Go!!!, Yuri!!! on ICE official fanbook, Hosoya Yoshimasa interview

Part 2.

-- You do you think is a rival of the character that you play?

H: I don't think that Otabek thinks about others as "rivals" that much, in general. I don't think that the feels that he is competing with somebody for getting better scores, or doing better performances. Watching the scenes, when he is saying his monologue, I thought that he rather wants to overcome the clumsy and mentally weaker old version of himself.

-- Please, tell us also something about Otabek and Yurio's interactions.

H: In the show, we see a scene, where Otabek says to Yurio, that Yurio is similar to him. After that he says his declaration of friendship, but in the screenplay, there was a note saying "he likes that in Yurio, that he is similar to him", so when I was playing my role, I was keeping that in mind. But as these two were talking, I couldn't stop thinking about Otabek's undercut, for some reason. I was wondering what actor would play the role of Otabek, if they were to make a live-action movie.

[Notes: YoI live-action movie...💀💀 Only if directed by Sayochin.

@thegirlwhorideslikeasamurai mentioning MAPPA in her reblog gave me some flashbacks 💀

Actually, it's very interesting that in 2019 Avex made another anime movie, Eiga no Osomatsu-san, which flopped (~6 oku yen at box office, for comparison, JJK movie made like 130-140 oku?), and they also managed to make fools of themselves, by claiming that they want at least 666666 people to see the movie and "let's count officially", but it ended up being close to "400000"... (I bet that's another reason, why they were even more wary of IceAdo, after the trailer also flopped, and theaters were like 90% empty). Both IPs' huge popularity was based on fujoshis mainly, and you can actually see that when people were commenting on that movie flop online, they also talked that "YoI is going to be next, bc fujos just get bored and move on..." In YoI's case, it's not that they just moved on, they actively started to hate the creators, and everything that they do, if it isn't 100% about Yuuri being the center of the universe, drawn in a way that they approve of (so in a """uke""" way). Too bad YoI is not a pixiv original fujo doujinshi (I know some people kind of forgot that it isn't), so their requests were actually never met properly 😞

But what's even more interesting though, is that unlike on YoI, they didn't give up on Osomatsu IP, even though it has been already dubbed "owakon", "finished content" by fandom in 2019... And made a live-action movie in 2022 starring Johnnys Smile-upers? ((I just looked it up how it came to be and oh boy, it seems that avex had quite close ties to a child predator with hundreds of victims, as multiple bands were under their label... (It's common for a big Jp entertainment-related company to have ties to him, but still... I never thought of it 🫠...))) So they went for a rebrand for that IP, you can say - now catering mainly to fans of boy idol groups. It's quite clear that YoI is treated.... Differently.]

Gameplay is from Office Jerk by the way

[thebardisabird]

It's been a while since I watched the show, what's currently going on with it? How many seasons so far and is it still going on or has it ended. I think I stopped at Season 2 and remember that there was a movie.

So at current there are 3 seasons subbed, with the first two seasons having an English dub. There are actually three movies out as well (fourth one on the way this July in Japan). My prediction is if this latest movie does well in theaters, they'll make a fourth season. The movies are listed below (if you need a link to any of these, please hit me up I have resources for everything):

Eiga no Osomatsu-san (Mr. Osomatsu: The Movie) - 2019

Osomatsu-san the live action movie - March 2022

Osomatsu-san: Hipipo-Zoku to Kagayaku Kajitsu (Mr. Osomatsu: The Hipipo Tribe and the Shining Fruit) - July 2022
