Quotes 

  • Kesakichi : You made Matsu-yan go to the Amaya's! Why? Why did you make her go there? Granny, you murdered her! Damn you! Demon hag!

    Tatsuhei : Mom. Why didn't you tell me? Mom...

    Orin : This winter... I'm going to the mountain. My mother went to the mountain, as did the mother-in-law of our home. So I have to go too. It's tough living here. If I go to the mountain, I'll see Matsu-yan. I'm going to see Matsu-yan.

    Tamayan : It's all right. There's one less mouth to feed, and the rat is dead too. We'll make it through the winter.

  • Kesakichi : Hey... I hope the baby will be a girl. We won't have to kill it, because we can sell it.

  • Kesakichi : Granny, you got such healthy teeth. You could eat anything, pinecones, even fart-beans.

    Orin : I've never eaten anything like that.

    Kesakichi : You got 33 teeth, gran!

    Orin : Don't be stupid, I only have 28.

    Kesakichi : Yeah, right. You just can't count past 28, that's all.

  • Kesakichi : Orin of Nekko, at the corner of the shed... bared 33 of her demon teeth.

    Tatsuhei : Kesa! Your grandma's teeth are demon's teeth, are they? Bastard! Ingrate! And after all your Grandma does for you! Jackass! No supper for you!
