I’m sorry, Daisy. Because of me…I’m sorry. It’s my fault
things became like this. I got caught too easily in that trap. How could I be
so stupid? I’m sorry. Because of me, everyone’s getting involved. Even Kiyoshi
got used because he was my best friend. I’m sorry. There was no need for him to
be hurt because of me. I’m not that important. It’s because they’re protecting
me. I’m sorry. I’m not going to cause them any more trouble. I’m
sorry…Kurosaki…I can’t take it. I really can’t. For someone so important to me…
if something more happens…If I get them more involved…I’m sorry… (crying) He’s
kind…the always kind Daisy. All I do is make him worry about me all the time.
You’re always protecting me. That’s why, the least I could do…is not to say,
“Thank you” to you by mistake. ..thank you for saving me.You even got hurt protecting me…but also please stay by my
side. Please always stay by my side…forever. Gentle Daisy, thank you. Thank you
for protecting me-
Week-a-versary! So to celebrate, everyone's favorite anime Hetalia (Just joking... but you can't deny it's pretty funny! ) Also, these are rather small monologues, sorry. :( But their clips just aren't that long! Unless it's america who talks a lot so there are a few on here
Show: Hetalia
Character: Brittan
Genre: Comedy
Setting: Brittan tries to get revenge on America... fails.
Monologue:
Busby’s chair long ago Thomas Busby viciously beat a man to
death for sitting in this, his favorite chair. After being convicted of murder
he reportedly cursed the chair on the way to the gallows he swore that who ever
sat in this chair would face the same fate he was about to face. It is said it’s
responsible for sending over 60 people to their deaths. I’ve got it now, I’ll
switch America’s chair with Busbys chair in the meeting, he won’t be able to jive
talk his way out of this one. I can’t believe I didn't think of cursing him
like this sooner! (maniacal laugh) Oh!
>Russia sits in chair, chair explodes<
Busby’s Chair, anyone who sits in this chair will be cursed
with a quick and often painful death except apparently for Russia.
Is this how Busby is spelled?
Clip:
Show: Hetalia
Character: America
Genre: Comedy
Setting: America draws pictures for the world confrence
Monologue:
Dude rock out! I am awesomely the first one here! Now I can
say “Hey aren’t you running a little late?”
Those loosers are gunna feel like really stupid yo! Wait… it’s Brittan…
The portraits, Brittan was drawing them the whole time!?
>characters grumble over re-drawn pictures of
themselves<
Well that’s just annoying , why would someone choose to draw
us in such a fashion? It’s unforgiveable really, how dare that mysterious
person flexively express all of our indivual characteristics with skilled ketches
using a reformed innovative style that reflects the American pop art syle they
probably learned in New York city?
Show: Hetalia
Character: Switzerland (<3 Okay, confession time... Switzerland is my favorite)
Genre: Self-defence!
Setting: Switzerland preps his little sister for war
Monologue:
And now we will begin our home school training session on self-defense.
Pay attention, don’t talk to strangers … ever and don’t let them into the
house. They will try to tempt you with candy and peace treaties but don’t listen. If you don’t
know what to do ask me okay, but always remember, stranger danger is the key,
understood? Will you please try to focus, this is important! You need to be
careful of wild animals they may be cute but you can never be sure what they
might do. Some of them might have sharp fangs
with poison so that they will kill you. If you decide to take one in, don’t
take just one because they deserve to have friends.
Manga: Ouran High School Host Club
Character: Hauhi
Genre: Family love?
Setting: Girl has her hand stuck in a truth or lie and Haruhi says she won't let the girl go and then Haruhi says this speech to say how everyone in the host club loves and cares for Tamaki. :)
Monologue:
I won’t! I won’t!! Tamaki aren’t you a liar too! You
promised you would open up to me! But your worrying over something all on your
own again! Your probably thinking you’d resolve it with out having to bother
anyone about it, weren’t you? Were you afraid if you showed us your true
thoughts, we’d all pull away? If that’s the case, it’s far too late. We all
know your good and bad points already, just as you know Hikaru and Kaoru so
well that you can easily tell them apart, we know you well too. We know you
well enough that you would ignore Honey’s tears of persuasion if needed… and no
matter how intimidated you would beat having to face Mori’s ferocity in battle,
you would never back down from a challenge… and that, even though I wouldn’t
even know half of it you’d be able to solve a crossword puzzle with memories we’ve
all shared. You’re an egotistical crybaby, overly spontaneous and you like to grab
people by the hands a twirl them around. We know you… can’t you understand?
Despite it all were here because we want to be with you.
Manga: Ouran High School Host Club
Character: Tamaki
Genre: Comedy
Setting: At Tamaki's house after having accidently kissed Haruhi.
Monologue:
Pick up Kyoya, I guess he stayed up all night again. How
could he be so insensitive, when his best friend languished though a sleepless night.
Doesn’t he know he ought to rise early once in a while? So a dear friend can
cry on his shoulder? After running 25 laps around the school last night at full
speed I can barely move my body and on top of that yesterday Haruhi and I
kissed. What should I do? What should I do? What should I do? It happened in
true shojo manga style, the legendary “ Three –part best senrio” but that
almost never happens in real life! Ah! So it was the legendary accidental kiss!
What should I do?! If I follow the conventional Shojo manga wisdom, I should
show up again as a new transfer student in Hauhi’s class, but I already attend
the same school! Oh marriage! That’s it! We should get married! I’m the kind of
man who takes responsibility for what he’s done! You help too Antoinette! We
need a church that can hold our ceremony immediately! No wait… maybe Haruhi
would prefer a Shinto style wedding!? Alright let’s do this! I’ll look for a
location that combines both a chapel and a Shinto shrine, so you hurry up and
make the guest list for me from the
people in this address book.
>passes out on bed<
Sorry Antoinette, I am aware of reality. The new Tamaki is
not as stupid as the old one was. To Haruhi that kiss probably ment nothing at
all, by now she’s probably forgotten all about it. I’m sure no lovelorn sighs
are dreamily passing from those sweet lips that pressed mine. Their probably
just eating natto with rice. On the other hand I agonize for hours. Last night
over whether to even brush my teeth.

Manga: Oran High School Host Club
Character: Tamaki
Genre: Drama
Setting: Inner thoughts and conversation walking through a garden as to why Tamaki cannot love Haruhi look-a-like.
Monologue:
As clichéd as it sounds, what made me realize my feelings
was seeing her put in danger because of me. I was so out of my mind with worry
I could have died. I blamed the kidnappers, I blamed myself… when I found out
she was alright I then the overwhelming relief I felt might kill me. The moment
I saw her smile – a smile that wiped away all my fear and misery – I realized…
ah! So that’s it. I’m in love with her. That true and simple feeling left a
pang in my heart. And I immediately wanted to die again as all my past
stupidity invaded my mind. I’ve always believed I was somewhat of a genius in
my own right… so discovering how idiotic I’ve been has come as a shock. But
when I thought deeply about it while gazing at the tigers of the zoo and strolling
with the equestrian clubs horses… everything seemed to fall into place. Even
Hikaru’s comment made sense I realized I might have been clinging too hard to
something… I might have been living in fear of something.
After you transferred here Miss Kanoya… I became even more certain.
I saw a lot of similarities between us. I do love my parents. But something
inside me had always been bothered by the fact that because my father chose my
mother, various people ended up hurt. As a result, I’ve always feared that if I
were to hold someone as special, someone else precious to me would suffer. I
think that’s why I avoided facing my true feelings. Hikaru tried to encourage
me, but I guess I lack the courage to believe. I never wanted to lose anything
I had. I wanted so desperately to never be lonely again… I was a coward who hid
away in his shell, seeking only to protect himself. And I questioned myself,
how could a person like that ever hope to contend with as earnest and
unwavering a girl as she?

Show: Big O
Character: Roger Smith
Genre: Drama
Scene:
The first narration of the first episode explaining what happened to Paradime city. Driving in a car to a job, grungy city backdrop.
Monologue:
This place, Paradime City is a town of forgetfulness. One
day, 40 years ago every person here lost all memory of all that occurred before
that day. But humans are adaptable creatures, they make do and go on with life.
If their smart enough to figure out how to operate the machinery and get
electricity they can have something of a civilization without a history. People
can survive without knowing what did or didn’t happened the past. Each day they
try their hardest to do just that. The only ones who regret the loss of these
memories is the cities elderly. But memories, like nightmares sometimes come
when you least expect them.
Show:The Melancholy of Haruhi Suzimia
Character: Kyon
Genre: Drama
Scene: Kyon questions himself as to why he chose to go back to the normal world when he complains about it's oddities so often. Alternate universe limbo type place. Think of this scene kind of like Gollum Good Kyon talking to Unsettled Kyon.
Monologue:
Why was I the only one unaffected? The answer is simple, she
wanted to let me make the choice. Is the altered one better, or is the original
one better? The choice is mine. Damn it… what were my thoughts originally? What
did I think of the incidents Haruhi caused and of various crazy scenarios I was
thrust into? “To hell with this” “Enough already” “Are you an idiot?” “I’ve had
enough of you.” I was a normal guy who got dragged into this against his
wishes, a high school student who complained while he struggled to meet
Haruhi’s unreasonable demands. That was my role. Now then me. Yes you! I ask
myself, this is an important question so listen closely, and then answer. Here
comes the question, do you find such an extraordinary school life fun? Answer me.
Think about it, well? Let’s hear it. Being run around in circles by Haruhi,
being attacked by aliens, hearing weird talk from time travelers, listening to
more weird talk from espers, running into countless messed up situations, and
on top of that, having to follow the strict rule of keeping it all secret from
Haruhi, by keeping her oblivious to the fact that she’s the cause of the whole
mess. Don’t you find that fun? Or do you think it’s too much trouble and want
no further part of it? Is that right? So basically this is what I think? Is
that so, is that how it is? You think Haruhi is annoying, that everything that
comes from her is depressing? So you don’t think any of that s interesting?
Don’t tell me it’s not true. You know it is. And yet, you pressed the enter
key. The emergency escape program. The tool that Nagato left behind to revert
the change. “Ready?” You answered yes to that question am I right? The great
Nagato went out of her way to create a stable world for you but you rejected
it. Why? Aren’t you constantly complaining? Aren’t you always lamenting your
misfortune? If that’s the case, shouldn’t you have jut ignored the emergency
escape program? In that world, Hauhi would just be a normal human who bosses
people around, Asahina-san would be an incredibly moe character, Koizumi would
be an ordinary high school student and Nagato would be a quiet girl who loves
books. Yes, she would remain expressionless, but still laugh at lame jokes,
then blush in embarrassment. And then as time goes by she would gradually open
up her heart. That’s the kind of person she might become. You abandoned the
chance for such a peaceful life. Why? I’ll ask one last time, answer clearly.
Don’t I find being with Haruhi and being dragged into Haruhi’s troubles fun?
Answer me.
Of course I do! Of course it was fun! Don’t ask me something
so obvious!
If anyone were asked this question, and answered that they
actually don’t find it interesting then they would be a genuine idiot. Thirty
times more senseless than Haruhi. There are aliens, time travelers and espers
there, you know! Just one would be fun enough, but there are three interesting
characters! On top of that, there’s even a maximum power Haruhi you know? And
there are even more mystery powers out there too! There’s no way this isn’t fun
for me. No matter how many time you ask me, my answer will stay the same: Of
course.
Show: Detective Conan Character: Ran Mouri Genre: Comedy / Drama Scene: Ran tries to break into Conan's phone as she has suspicions that he is Shinichi. It is past midnight during the summer. Monologue:
There is only one way to find out whether my suspicions are
right or not. Conan’s phone. If the mail I sent to Shinichi really is inside
then this will be proof that Conan is Shinichi. Of course. He turned off his
phone so that it wouldn’t vibrate if he received a mail. But your too soft Shinichi.
If I turn it on, I’ll know for sure whether… but wait a minute. Can I really do
this? If Conan really is Shinichi, how will I be able to face him? Shouldn’t I
wait for him to tell me? Nah, no way he would. And really, snooping around on
someone’s phone… But if I just want to check whether my mail has come or not.
It’s only for that, it’s not such a big deal, is it? Sorry Shinichi! (locked) Ooh,
of course, I should have seen this coming. But for something like this, you’d
usually use your birthday or something like that. (wrong pin code) Hmm, that
would have been too easy. There are 10,000 possible codes. Trying all of them
will take up to eight hours. Isn’t there anything I can think of? What if it’s
MY Birthday? I’m soo stupid, there no way. No way, no way, no way… But trying
doesn’t hurt right? So mine is… but what am I going to do if it really is…
(wrong pin code) Oh, so it’s wrong heh? Then what number is it!?! Tell me! Keep
cool Ran. Both of them are sleeping it seems. If I stay here, no one will come
and bother me. If I’m no too noisy they won’t hear anything. And I do have the
time…

Show: The Melancholy of Haruhi Suzimia
Character: Haruhi Suzimia
Genre: Drama
Scene: After spending a day hunting for Ryoko Asakura who vanished with only Yuki and Kyon knowing where she has gone, Haruhi has been paired up with Kyon, Haruhi crosses the railroad tracks to start heading home. After here the two split up to head to their homes Haruhi opens up finally to Kyon about why she behaves strangely and her perspective on life. The season is summer
Monologue:
Say… Have you ever realized how insignificant your existence
is on this planet? I have. It’s something I’ll never forget. During elementary
school when I was in sixth grade the whole family went to watch a baseball game
at the stadium. I wasn't particularly interested in baseball but I was shocked
when we got there. There were people everywhere I looked. The ones on the other
side of the stadium looked like squirming grains of rice all packed together. I
wondered if every person in Japan had gathered in this place and so I asked my
Dad exactly how many people were in the stadium. His answer was that a sold –
out game meant around fifty thousand people. After the game the path to the
station was flooded with people, the sight stunned me, so many people around me
yet only a fraction of the people in Japan.
Once I got home I got a calculator and did the math. We learned the
Japanese population was a hundred million and some in social studies, divide
fifty thousand into that and you only get one two-thousandth. I was stunned
again. Not only was I one little person in that sea of people in that stadium
but that sea of people was merely a drop in the ocean. I had thought myself to
be a special person up until that point. I enjoyed being with my family and
most of all I thought that my class in my school had the most interesting
people in the world. But it was then that I realized that it wasn't like that.
The things that happened in what I believe to be the most enjoyable class in
the world could be found happening in any school in Japan. Everyone in Japan
would find them to be ordinary occurrences. Once I realized this I suddenly
found that my surroundings were beginning to lose their color. Brush my teeth
and go to sleep at night, wake up and eat breakfast in the morning, people do
those everywhere. When I realized that
everyone did all these things on a daily basis everything started to feel soo
boring, and if there were so many people in the world there had to be someone
living an interesting life that wasn't ordinary, I was sure of it. Why wasn't that person me? That’s all I could
think about until I graduated from elementary school and in the process I
realized something, nothing fun will happen if you sit around waiting. So I
figured I would change myself in middle school, let the world know I wasn't content sitting around and waiting and I conducted myself accordingly but in
the end nothing ever happened. Before I knew it I was in High School, I thought
something would have changed.
Hi there! I noticed it's often asked around the internet about monologues for animes. While I don't watch very many animes (I tend to stay on the realistic side of anime and manga) I have been trying to keep attack of monologues I find, if I find one, I'll put it here.
Suggestions say the scene below in the comments up the ones I find in my travels among the anime AND manga world will appear here! :D
