And he can walk by himself!

He is so funny!

That's right, he's my special wooden boy.

He's pretty cute for a wooden puppet.

I hope you all make friends and have fun with him, and now I'll buy something to eat.

No, no. You stay here and have fun with your new friends!

Ooh i see.

This guy is made of oak wood.

I’ll teach you a lesson, puppet!

Don't do it!

Even if you're a puppet, you're still pretty empty headed for sure.

Mokku.

Here's my present!

Aren't these flowers smells so good?

Of course, he can't smell them. He's a wooden puppet!

He have a wooden nose afterall.

Poor thing.

Here's my present.

Franko, are you alright?

Don't you feel like you're burning?

Stop!

Mokku, are you okay?!

Does it hurt?

Mokku!

My poor boy, I'll fix you immediately.

Unfortunately, this can happen to you because you're wooden puppet.

And here's your new nose.

Here.

That's the advantage of being a puppet!

Now let's see.

Thank goodness.

Mokku, I bought you a bag with books so you can go to school tomorrow.

Hey, Mokku!

Wanna see the show? It's gonna be a lot of fun!

Of course I want to see it!

Okay, but you need to get a ticket.

And how can I get ticket?

With money!

With money?

This must be the shop he was talking about.

Hey, Mokku.

You're that cricket!

That's right! I'm the ghost of a cricket that you k*lled.

Say Mokku, are you trying to sell your bag with a books?

Do you understand that your grandpa sold his jacket to buy you this bag.

But i just want to see the show.

Remember my words.

If you gonna sell your bag, you'll deeply regret it.

Go away!

He dissapeard.

Fool, you can't k*ll a ghost!

Shut up!

It's a puppet.

And it's can walk and talk on its own?

He's pretty well done made.

It's a deal!

Hey, Mokku!

This is the host of the show, and he left the best seat for you.

Really? Thank you!

Now, come with me Mokku.

Are this puppet's like me?

No, these puppets are different. They only can move when i pull the strings.

But you're puppet who can move and talk by itself.

You gonna make me a lot of money.

No! I just wanted to see show not to be in it!

Shut up!

If you don't obey, I'll use force.

What's going happen to me?

If you come here, you'll never come back alive.

You will perform until you'll die.

Look inside the box over there.

Poor things...

And we can't help them.

Dolls can only move with the help of a human.

We are puppets nothing more than toys.

Well, time to start the show.

Wha?

You didn't even last for 6 months!

Darn you!

Now your place is only in my furnance.

Burn in fire!

Why did you do this?

What?!

You!

You're coming with me!

Ladies and gentlemen!

Behold the only puppet that can dance and sing by itself - Mokku!

Now, greet the audience.

Fool, is that what you call a greeting?

You stupid puppet, give a big smile to the audience.

What a pity, I warned him about it.

Hurry up, Mokku, do something.

What's the matter?

My patience has burst! Enough!

This wouldn't have happened if you'd listened to my advice.

We are puppets nothing more than toys.

I don't want to be a puppet, I want to be real human.

A human...

I just want to be real...

I want to be real human!
