Quotes

Tekkonkinkreet

Edit
  • Jiccha: What is it about fire? So calm and peaceful but... inside, all power and destruction. It's hiding something. Just like people do. Sometimes you have to get close to find what's inside. Sometimes you have to get burned to see the truth.
  • [repeated line]
  • Shiro: Be happy, Be happy
  • Suzuki: Unfortunately, your luck is waning. This is not a time to be greedy. Maintain the status quo.
  • Kimura: What's that, Mr. Suzuki?
  • Suzuki: Kimura, you believe in astrology?
  • Kimura: I believe in nothing.
  • Suzuki: Nothing, huh? At least believe in love, Kimura. Love is all you need.
  • Sawada: Cats? What cats?
  • Fujimura: Strays. Orphans. Delinquents who rule Treasure Town. They live by the law of the jungle. The city is their playground. Underestimate them and you'll kiss asphalt.
  • Shiro: Hey, Black, nighttime is sad. Guess it's because the dark makes me think about dying.
  • Kuro: Don't worry, White. Nobody will ever break us apart.
  • Shiro: [opening lines] Paper money is bigger than metal money. Nine comes after eight. And Spring comes after winter, right, Black? Is that right? Black, when the sky turns black why do I feel so blue?
  • [final lines]
  • Shiro: This is Planet Earth, Agent White. Do you read me, over? Today I kept the peace on this planet. Over? This planet's very peaceful. Over and out.
  • Shiro: Ears?
  • Kuro: Ah, Vanilla's They could tell from the earrings.
  • Shiro: The gangster did it, didn't he? Hope Choco's okay.
  • Kuro: No way. Choco's way out of his league with Kimura. Choco's a fool, never liked him.
  • Shiro: Don't say that. Talking bad about people makes your heart dry up, it's true. Anyway, it's none of our business. Right, Black? Be happy, be happy.
  • Shiro: This whole city's going to burn.
  • The Minotaur: Free the darkness.
  • Kuro: This is my town.
