Next up

Sub:
A: That's enough.
B: Sorry. I couldn't suppress the hot beat inside of me.
A: You have to straighten yourself out.

Dub:
A: Give it up already.
B: Sorry. It's just that I'm a slave to the rhythm, you know?
A: You have to pull yourself together.

They're different enough that I thought I'd cite both.

Hint No. 1: spoiler[Character B dreams of being a rock 'n' roll god, but no one else -- apart from maybe one person -- thinks he has the talent.]

Hint No. 2: spoiler[Character B is already halfway to his goal mentioned in the first hint. He just needs to work on his rock 'n' roll. Pounding out a rhythm on a huge turtle-shaped bell probably doesn't count as practice, though.]

Hint No. 3: spoiler[Character B is at this location because he ran away from home 3 months before. No one noticed because only a few people can see this deity. Character B also acts as a mentor to the main character of the series, a middle-school girl who recently became a god herself.]
Hint No. 4: spoiler[It's difficult to perform in public when you're a god. To do so, character B possesses a friend of the main character. This embarrasses her because it's so out of character from how she usually behaves.]

I feel like I've really slowed the game down. I didn't expect this quote to be that obscure. So, I'm trying to make up for that with the hints.

I haven't seen the show, but I think it could be spoiler[Yashima from Kamichu! talking to Yurie. Yashima is probably possessing Mitsue.]

I'll take it. Very Happy

It's actually from episode 2, when Yurie and crew go looking for Yashima-sama because he's been missing from the shrine for 3 months. Yurie finds him in the world of the gods, where he's banging on a large bell at a temple. Character A is a talking dog.

I love the series. I figured the quote would be a little challenging, but I didn't expect it to last a day and a half.

Your turn!!

I'll throw you an easy one:

Sub: Put a Roper on the Roper's back, and then put another Roper on that one's back. On the moonlit beach, the teary-eyed Roper lays its eggs.

Edit: I'll come online again in approx. 24 hours, so feel free to continue the minigame while waiting for me to confirm (or not) your guesses.

Okay, next up:

Dub:

A: "Now which one were you using? The golden toilet paper, or the silver toilet paper, my dear boy?"
B: "Neither. It was just regular paper toilet paper actually. Judging from the texture, I'm pretty sure that it's recycled."
A: "Wonderful. You are so honest, I shall give you everything."
B: (screams) "Please don't do this to me! No, I can't look! Have mercy on my soul!"

Since you're quoting from the dub, I'll use the English name.

I think this is from spoiler[Magic User's Club], where spoiler[A is a mysterious being, B is Takeo, and it, of course, happens when Takeo is in the bathroom.]

The quote, incidentally, is a spoof of an Aesop's fable that is also referred to in several other anime series, but this is the only one, to my knowledge, that involves toilet paper.
