[The camera is a bit shaky at first, but it finally steadies and focuses to show Minato, once again all smiles.]

Good job, Thanatos! Just hold it right there.

Anyway, hey there! Minato Arisato here. On my way to Violet City, I managed to catch the greatest thing ever. I've got...

[TA-DA-DA-DAAAAAAA! Minato suddenly raises a giant orange fish over her head. A fish that many love to hate.]

A MAGIKARP!

[There is a moment of silence to allow the sheer crazy badassery to sink into the minds of the viewers.]

I know what you're thinking. Something like, "It's a stupid little fiiiiiish." or "It's so weak and useleeeeeess..."

Well, you shouldn't just judge on appearances! Did you know that a Magikarp that lives for a really long time can fly over a mountain using Splash? I'm pretty sure I've caught an ancient Magikarp, so I can cut back on travel time by latching onto him! Isn't that totally awesome?!

GET A MAGIKARP!

Hey, I'm here now. Where would you like to meet?

Fly over mountains? [Gasp] Maybe he'll turn into a dragon like in the legends!

I dunno, I think he'd be much cooler flying over mountains as a fish...

But wouldn't it be cooler to be riding him as a fish and then he turns into a dragon as you land?

[His eyes are dreamy. He's imagining the whole scene quite dramatically.]

It would be even better if I made a giant crater from landing with a fish! It'd be like that Mindy Anaconda movie, except instead of the tallest tree of the forest, it's the ground~!

[Realism? Psssh, that word doesn't exist in her dictionary.]

Mindy Anaconda? I've never heard of that movie!

Well, you're a kid, so you were probably too young to have seen it. It's called Mindy Anaconda and the Holy Grail. It's from Britain, and it's really funny! Not sure if they have it here, though...

What's it about? [He doesn't watch many comedy movies, he prefers a surplus of action.]

It's a parody of King Arthur and his quest for the Holy Grail. One scene they had to chop down the tallest tree in the forest... WITH A HERRING!

[Nobita does vaguely remember reading something about that. Then again, most aspects of the story aren't quite kid-friendly, so it's not too surprising that he doesn't know all of it. Still, he knows humor when he hears it, and he giggles at that part.]

Well, maybe it was a tall but really really skinny tree! That would work, right?

[Minato laughs.]

Heh, I guess it would! I wonder if Ikezukuri here could chop the tallest tree down. Magikarp seem to be really rock solid!

[Head tilt] Really? How can you tell? Did you try?

I tried to eat him.

[...]

And he isn't hurt?

I felt like my teeth were gonna break. I couldn't even make a dent in him!

But why did you try to eat him then?

I was hungry!

[Well, he can attest to that. One bento lunch does not go a long way.]

Oh...that's a good reason, I guess. I hope he's not gonna be mad at you.
