Kintaro’s last adventure takes him to the world of anime production, where he becomes a gofer at an animation studio. This episode is both a parody and a love letter to anime itself, packed with industry references and self-awareness.
---
Plot Summary
Kintaro lands a job at a struggling animation company. At first, the staff treat him as an annoyance—he’s goofy, unprofessional, and constantly distracted by his usual pervy tendencies. The director, in particular, finds him insufferable and doubts he has any talent or discipline.
But as always, Kintaro secretly studies everything: storyboarding, drawing, cel-painting, editing, and the teamwork needed to finish a project. Despite looking like a fool, he throws himself into the work with relentless determination, staying up late and practicing endlessly.
When the studio faces a crisis, Kintaro surprises everyone by stepping in with unexpected skill and energy, helping to push the project forward. His enthusiasm and sincerity inspire the team, and even the strict director is forced to acknowledge his unique talent.
The episode ends with a flourish: a meta-twist where the anime Golden Boy itself is referenced, blurring the line between Kintaro’s “life study” and the very show the audience is watching. In true Golden Boy fashion, he departs once more, off to new adventures, leaving behind a group of people whose lives he changed.

00:00You
00:26Look kid didn't you see where it said in the ad that we would
00:30Looking for people with cars
00:32A bike is not a car
00:34Let me explain
00:36A car's got something called an engine
00:38A bike has only got pedals
00:40You push around
00:42The Mikazuki 5 is a hard working lovely bicycle
00:44And I
00:45There's a difference between a bicycle and a car
00:47When I say car I mean car
00:49Oh boy
00:50I think I've blown this one
00:52Looks like I won't be working here any time soon
00:54Here
00:55Have some tea please
00:57Thank you so very much
00:59Don't mind the boss
01:01We're really short handed
01:02Our working conditions are so harsh
01:04That almost nobody ever answers our ads
01:06Oh
01:07Isn't that right boss
01:08Thanks so much for sharing
01:10Still could you be ready to start today
01:12Oh of course I can
01:14Thank you very much sir
01:15All right Chi
01:17Show bicycle boy around the place
01:19Yes sir
01:20So her name's Chi
01:24She's a cute and kind co-worker
01:26This is going to be great
01:27And these are the desks where the animators work
01:29I'm so pleased to meet you
01:31You made you
01:32Oh
01:33Oh
01:34I guess the mornings in animation studios
01:48Begin a little late
01:49You made you
01:50You made you
01:51You made me
01:52You made me
04:00There are a lot of steps involved in producing an animated film, and that means a lot of people.
04:04The job of a production administrator is to organize and administrate the full length of the production process.
04:10That means I pick up a lot of stuff and take it where it needs to go.
04:13Hi! I've got the completed cells here.
04:16Put them over there, please.
04:17Uh, why are you jiggling those?
04:25I'm getting rid of all the air bubbles that were mixed into the vinyl cell paint.
04:29By tapping the cell from the other side, you can deflate the bubbles.
04:32That makes the painted cell look even better than it did before.
04:35Oh, how educational.
04:37You sure like learning, don't you?
04:41Being a PA is tough, but hang in there.
04:43Yes, ma'am!
04:44I'll be well hugged!
04:46Oh, she's got a nice body!
04:48I'd say her chest measurement is at least 33!
04:50No! Make that 33 and a half inches!
04:53Seek up!
04:54Wow! Nice tits and brains!
04:56She's really one hot mama!
04:58I may be an administrator, but since I'm just a trainee, I get to do most of the odd jobs when I'm not running errands.
05:04But the process of producing animation is full of things I never thought about, so it's all very educational.
05:10For example, the people that draw and make the drawings move are referred to as animators.
05:15They do this by drawing dozens and dozens of pictures.
05:19When the pictures are photographed in sequence, one frame of film at a time, the drawing appears to move.
05:24Animators are further subdivided into two groups.
05:27First, the key animators draw the most important poses.
05:30Then the in-between animators fill in the rest of the movie.
05:33It's a time-consuming process.
05:35What's up, Kentaro?
05:37The animation sheet!
05:39Are you supposed to draw stuff like that?
05:42Sure.
05:42This company does a lot of adult animation, too.
05:46Those breasts look just like secure a**es!
05:48So you recognize them!
05:50Actually, I was using this book as a reference.
05:52Oh!
05:53See?
05:53Oh, man, that's really great!
05:57That's my job!
05:58Of course, I like breasts that are shaped like this!
06:01Hey, you're pretty good at drawing them!
06:03You think so?
06:04I do a lot of doodling in my notebook.
06:06Hmm, personally, I prefer the ones where the nipples point upwards.
06:10Yes, but the upper curve looks best when it's round and just like so.
06:14Don't you think?
06:15Wow, you really know your boobs!
06:18Kentaro!
06:19I told you to clean up the place before the guests get here!
06:22I'm sorry, sir!
06:23Get on it right now!
06:25I'm on it.
06:26Hang in there.
06:27Please, come right in!
06:44Watch your step.
06:47Hey, boss!
06:49Who are they?
06:50Just the sponsor and the original author.
06:53Hello, director.
06:54Uh-huh, hi.
06:56Have you met Mr. Ngawa?
06:58Uh, pleased to meet you.
07:00Of course!
07:03Um, excuse me, who is that guy?
07:06That's Tatsuya Ngawa.
07:07His name's on the poster.
07:09What?
07:09The ultra-popular, best-selling author of Golden Girls is featured in weekly comic Bungee Jump,
07:14who can draw erotic illustrations better than anyone else,
07:16and is the richest person alive, and is really slick and handsome?
07:19That's Tatsuya Ngawa?
07:20Uh-huh.
07:21And that's my idea of how the film will come out.
07:25Okay, director, I love it!
07:27But you'd better make this film gripping!
07:29I want to grab the audience by the balls!
07:31I'll grab them and squeeze!
07:32They won't be able to sit down for a year!
07:34Excuse me!
07:35Could I have your autograph?
07:39Who's this?
07:40Kentaro 08, age 25, production administrator and training.
07:44Are you insane?
07:45Don't you know that Mr. Ngawa's much too busy to spend the time to give an autograph to a mere peon like you?
07:50Oh! Oh, he's so generous, too!
07:53He sure is!
07:54There.
07:55Oh, thank you so much, sir!
07:57Well, if the meeting's over, do you want to go get something to drink?
08:00Liquor me up!
08:05Now, let's talk about the production schedule.
08:09You have a month and a half to go.
08:11You will make your deadline, won't you?
08:13Mr. Ngawa's designs are so detailed that they're kind of hard to animate.
08:17You've never mentioned that before.
08:20Kentaro!
08:21Have you finished all that cleaning yet?
08:22I'll go clean!
08:24Well, we'll adjust the schedule as necessary.
08:26I think it would be in your best interest.
08:28And another thing.
08:30I don't think it was appropriate to call anyone a mere anything.
08:33I'll make a note of that.
08:35Mm-hmm.
08:36Mm-hmm.
08:38Yes!
08:39It's so educational!
08:41You're really weird, kid.
08:42Wow!
08:44It looks like we're going to have to complete this animation project in just a month and
08:48a half!
08:49The number of jobs I have to do keeps growing and growing.
08:52And since I don't have a car, I have to carry everything on my bike!
08:56Stacks of in-between drawings and animation cells really can get heavy when you have to
09:01carry a lot of them.
09:02Sometimes the going is pretty steep, especially since a lot of the animators now work out of
09:06their own homes.
09:06Their daily routines are all different, which means that I've got to be on standby at the
09:10company all night long!
09:13Um, Mr. Wakamoto?
09:14Hmm?
09:14Do you have any more clean-ups for me?
09:16Here!
09:16Oh!
09:17Thank you!
09:18Mr. Wakamoto is the chief animator!
09:20There are a lot of animators, and they all draw just a little differently, so it's his
09:24job to make sure that they all draw the same way.
09:27Oh, wow!
09:28You're a better artist than even Mr. Inkawa!
09:31Oh, thanks a lot!
09:33The film that we're steamrollering ahead on is an original story by Tatsuya Ingawa.
09:38It's called The Valley Where the Oni Screams.
09:40It's a fantasy spectacular about a group of kindergartners on a field trip who accidentally
09:44break a seal imprisoning an oni.
09:46It's a great story, but just meeting our schedule has become an equally fantastic spectacle, too.
09:51Ah, thank you for the drawings!
09:53Kentaro, are you going to go outside?
09:55Yeah, I'm delivering some in-betweens.
09:57Could you get me a beef bowl for Matsuya's on your way back?
10:00No problem!
10:01Did you say Matsuya's?
10:02Hey, Kentaro, get me a large beef bowl!
10:04Ginger-flavored beef for me!
10:06Yeah, me too!
10:06Large bread beef combo, no onions, please.
10:08Can you get me a beef curry with a raw egg to go?
10:10You supersize mine!
10:12When animators get really busy, they eat less and less outside.
10:16Their meals usually consist of prepackaged meals sold in convenience stores, mixed with beef
10:21bowls and lots of instant ramen noodles.
10:23Hmm.
10:24They aren't getting the balanced nutrition they need, and the amount of unburnable trash in
10:28the building is building up fast.
10:30This can't be good.
10:31Hmm?
10:36Cooking yourself something?
10:37Actually, I was making a hot vegetable dish for the animators.
10:40I don't want them getting scurvy.
10:42Wow, you're really into it.
10:44Well, I've worked in a restaurant before.
10:46You're doing great work, Kentaro.
10:48Will you let me taste test it when you're done?
10:50Anything for you, Chi!
10:52Oh, Miss Chi is so sweet!
10:55She's always so encouraging to me!
10:57That cute Miss Chi just placed her cute pink bottom on this!
11:10I wonder if it's still warm!
11:12Oh, God!
11:14What am I thinking?
11:15Why do I think these things?
11:17I'm bad!
11:18So bad!
11:19But...
11:20But I can't stop myself!
11:23Hey!
11:24What are you doing leaving this pot?
11:25So much junk!
11:40oh my oh what a mess this is so disgusting man how can they even tell
11:48where anything is there's garbage everywhere there's even leftover food
11:52right I'll clean it up yeah did you just straighten up my desk yeah you should
12:19never mess with an animator's desk it's great that you're so enthusiastic but be
12:25more careful kin-chan uh-huh damn it I scratched my new pumps
12:41all right what do you have to say for yourself what kind of progress report is
12:46this you've just got three weeks to go and you haven't even started food
12:48graphing the cells yet would you like to explain that it's fine we'll start
12:54shooting a first batch of cells next week and will you be able to make the
12:58deadline with that well actually the director's running just a little bit
13:03behind we were hoping that we might be able to work out a little delay in the
13:07timetable how did you ask me to negotiate at this stage you were planning this from
13:12the beginning no no of course not you do understand that this is a business don't
13:17you you're a subcontractor on a manufactured product and you've got a
13:20deadline to meet or else it is not like we're asking you to make a great work of
13:24art but consider how mr. and gala feels about the project and the rest of the
13:28steps that has nothing to do with the schedule well that might be the case but
13:33still artistic aspirations are enough if you check your contract
13:38right if that's the way you want to play so be it if you miss your deadline by so much as an hour
13:57I'll destroy you go ahead make my
14:00about that deadline my section won't be finished on time
14:10will we be okay boss we're behind schedule in the coloring department too
14:15all right as you just heard this has become the gravest crisis in our company's history
14:21the odds may seem to be stacked against us indeed at this point it may even seem hopeless
14:26but still we've got to bite the bullet and complete this film on time anyway we will finish it
14:33well I don't suppose we have any alternative hmm we're really pushing it though right as soon as
14:40the director gets here we'll have to completely reorganize the production sequencing I want
14:44everybody to go back and boss the director's been hit by a car and is in the hospital
14:47oh that's it boy it's all over now hey boss don't look at my face don't get close to me at all
15:07you gotta get your spirits up Chi it'll all work out thanks for what you did back there
15:33for taking the heat off me uh did I do something noble unknowingly if I hadn't spilled that tea
15:39none of this would have happened what are you saying that wasn't your fault Chi it was a giant
15:46accident yeah it was any single person's fault uh not at all
15:50uh but but it'll be okay Chi come on hang in there yeah this is the last man dash
15:58but my job is so unimportant what all I do is paint cells all day long it doesn't matter that I
16:07always make my deadline nobody expects anything out of me all I do is paint
16:13but there are no jobs that are unimportant and what you do is extraordinary what it's true Chi
16:28don't you believe me animation is pictures that move in color with real sound and voices comics
16:34novels and paintings can't do that plus you can do all sorts of things with the characters that you
16:39can never get away with doing in live action films or videos that's what makes animation so unique and
16:44wonderful and it's the skills and talents of dozens of brilliant artists all working together to make it
16:51all happen don't you see animation is incredibly cool so let's not give up now we've got to go for
16:59the gusto it's all a matter of study study don't you understand that it's impossible yeah the director's flat on
17:15his back kid who's gonna check the shots well I'll carry the key animation to the hospital that's not the
17:21only problem there are a lot of shots that haven't even been worked out yet this ain't no milk run but we could
17:28all help each other out mindless effort isn't gonna get us any nearer to finishing this thing we've already got more
17:33work than we can possibly do I got it we could use computers like Disney does don't be stupid doing animation with
17:40computers ain't no walk in the park and CG takes a whole lot of time it's expensive as hell too who's
17:47going to pay for it yeah there's just no way in hell that's right we'll never make the deadline it just can't
17:52be helped young man hey it's not like it's your fault yeah I mean sometimes you just gotta let it go
17:58maybe they're hiring over at speed racer you know things might be different we knew someone who worked in a
18:03computer graphics firm yes tea and software oh god you don't know how long I looked for you

23:22All right, I'll be expecting the final edit to be delivered in two days.
23:25We'll have it ready by daybreak!
23:27All right, it looks like all we've got is a little tiny bit of clean-up work to do.
23:31Boss! Boss! Kintaro is gone!
23:34His bicycle and luggage are all gone!
23:36Huh?
23:37He ran away again?!
23:39I don't believe this guy!
23:41This is getting ridiculous!
23:43We may never be able to get ahold of him!
23:45He's not getting away this time!
23:47He's not leaving me a virgin!
23:49I love being deflowered!
23:51How many will fit in that car of yours?
23:53Hey, Chi, aren't you going with the others? After Kintaro?
23:58Yes, but I have work to do first.
24:01Somebody's gotta make sure this film has an ending!
24:04Kintaro Oei, age 25. He withdrew from Tokyo University Law School, but only after he had already completed all the requirements for graduation.
24:14Ever since, he's traveled the highways and byways of Japan, trying out new jobs and positions, and learning about life to the fullest.
24:21Striving ahead on his trusty bicycle, the Mikazuki Five, he continues forward, seeking his destiny.
24:27And who knows, perhaps he's destined to save the Japanese animation industry, or even the world.
24:34Or, maybe not.
24:36Kintaro, you taught me how fun this job could be. You taught me how important my job is. You taught me all that and so much more. But I'll see you again someday.
25:04I know I will.
25:20Right!
25:21Sunny, Sunny, Sunny!
25:23Oh, I missed Sunny!
25:34Yeah, it's very заб руб, how fun it is .
25:36Cool, we Kalita Yoga.
