Tomo Takino quotes from Azumanga Daioh

Tomo

VIVA LA CLASS SHUFFLE!

Tomo

[holding up a box of cookies]. Chinsuko.

Tomo

It's chinsuko! it's chinsuko!

Tomo

Hold on! Sakaki, your boobs are 8cm bigger than mine, so step back 8cm!

Kaorin

Hey! That's cheating!

Eight centimeters...

Tomo

Sensei.

Yukari

What? What's wrong?

Tomo

I smashed that cockroach just now with my textbook.

Tomo

What should I do?

Yukari

Get away from me! GET AWAY! [She continues to scream]

Yukari

We're Team Yukari!

[unenthusiastically] Yay.

Osaka

We're Team Sea Slug!

Chiyo

Osaka?

Kaorin

But sea slugs are so... [pause]

Osaka

Go Team Sea Slug!

Tomo

Kimura-sensei, why did you become a teacher?

BECAUSE I LIKE HIGH SCHOOL GIRLS THAT'S WHY!

Tomo

Uh huh! Yomi's crazy flexible 'cause her body's made of almost nothing but fat!

DOUBLE CHOP!

Quit being so damn RUDE!

Tomo

Flabby! Hey, it jiggled!

DOUBLE CHOP!

Tomo

Ooow...

You two, quit messing around!

Tomo

That's right! We're stylin' and profilin'!

Osaka

But don't you have boyfriends to show off your style to?

Tomo

So, it's Nyamo's turn. Share some of your vast array of adult experiences.

[very uncomfortable] Well, I'm single too, so i really don't have any of those stories.

Tomo

Darn.

Yukari

You weren't single last year. [Nyamo shakes a little]

Tomo

Hey, what are you guys acting so cool for?

Huh?

Tomo

Come on you two, say something back at her!

Huh? [Pointing to Tomo] Knucklehead.

Tomo

[Pronouncing with "s"] Knuckleheads.

Oh. [To Yomi] Who you calling knucklehead?!

Yukari

An adult being dressed by a child...

You don't know how to put one on either!

Tomo

I thought for sure you'd be able to, Nyamo.

Yukari

[to the group] Isn't strange that Ms. Kurosawa here, who can tie a man's necktie, cannot put on her own kimono?

Tomo

You can tie a necktie?!

Yukari

The story begins long ago, when Ms. Nyamo was madly in love. This she-beast here used to practice doing neckties using me as her guinea pig!

So what?!

Yukari

Unfortunately, they broke up before she could show off her new skill. So her next ambition was-

Chiyo

That was interesting, but I'm a little confused. what did you mean by.... [the soundtrack goes silent as Chiyo mimes out certain very odd sexual references]

What? Chiyo, who told you about that?

Yukari

You did

Tomo

Thank you very much, sensei!

Osaka

That was very informative.

Kagura

[worshipfully] I'm so proud of you, Coach.

WHAT THE HELL DID I DO?

Tomo

I bet if she married Kimura she has a really bad personality.

Yukari

On the contrary! I hear that Kimura's wife is so sweet and gentle that she is willing to put up with that!

Tomo

[awestruck] Is she some kind of angel?

Kagura

Hey, does Chiyo-chan...

Tomo

Huh?

Kagura

...Still believe in Santa Claus?

Tomo

Well, should I ask her?

Tomo

Chiyo-Chan, are you one of those people that still believes in Santa Claus?

Kagura

Now, if we accept that Santa doesn't exist -- do reindeer exist?

Tomo

[after a bout of explosive laughter] This girl believes in reindeer! [Continues laughing, the other girls gasp.]

Reindeer do exist.
