rosdriseBecause I want my flist to suffer as I am, I've decided to do a picspam/recap of sorts for Jyuui Dolittle episode 6. In this week's A Plot, Tottori is recruited by his mentor to help a town being terrorized by a wild boar. Apparently it busts through plate glass windows, rips plastic bags out of shoppers' hands, and makes a get away into the forest.
The plan is to capture it and release it back into the wild far away. That, or, you know, shoot it's ass.
Tottori's greatest obstacle is not the boar itself, but rather a band a five school children that spend the majority of the episode being super creepy. They move as one cohesive unit guys, like they share a brain, like the Borg. The camera work didn't help, because a lot of the time it felt like a horror movie and I couldn't tell if it was on purpose or not.
Of course, the kids just want to help the boar. They found it when it was a baby and have been feeding it ever since. They leave plastic bags full of food for it to find. And now, not being scared of humans at all, it has just started wandering about town looking for snack cakes or something. Anyway, the kids sabotage all of Tottori's efforts, because they are a creepy boar-loving hive-minded entity.
In our B Plot, we have ~*~Charisma Vet~*~ Hanabishi (who can't operate on animals after killing his own dog on the operating table) being asked to help save some kid's golden retriever. Usually he'd send the patient to Tottori, but he wants to overcom his fear, especially because Evil Vet is blackmailing him with the information.
Do you know what time it is? PUPPET SURGERY TIME!
Anyway, Hanabishi passes out in the middle of the operation and they have to ask Evil Vet to step in. He gladly does when he learns the kid is the son of some government official he needs on his side in order to fund his animal clinic. It's also the perfect opportunity to secure Hanabishi's support for the animal clinic, because he needs his TV Star Powah. (Hanabishi also has to deal with the knowledge that if the clinic gets government funding, his own kindly mentor will lose the grant for his research project. DILEMMA!)
Meanwhile, back at the boar hunt, the team has found the grocery-terrorizing boar nearly dead in the forest. Turns out she's been eating the plastic bags along with all the food inside them, which duh. This is why children shouldn't feed wild boars. That and the mauling. Don't forget the mauling.
That means it's time for the lesson of the week! HUMANS ARE EVIL!
And then we get to the best part. Evil Vet shoved his veterinarian son aside to perform the dog surgery himself, because "nothing could go wrong". This is just the latest in a long string of slights and insults he's piled on his eldest son. I'm pretty sure the guys cracked at this point, considering he's severing the respirator tubes of golden retrievers and hovering around corners with menacing smiles.
Just saying.
