Y - You is a letter in Rolypolys no Nanakorobi Yaoki.

Plot

Cho is walking through a field, holding a sleeping George. Pon is digging a hole in the field to trap Cho, then hides when he sees his target. Cho spots the hole, stops short of it, and uses George as a bridge to walk over it. Later, Pon is thinking, and decides his next plan will be to smash Cho with a giant boulder. He is then high up on a tree with a boulder, waiting to drop it on Cho as he walks by. Cho spots the trap once again and uses George as a fan to blow Pon and the boulder away. Pon's third and final trap is a crude portrait of Jumping Jack Bu, intended to scare Cho. Cho uses George as a rope and drop-kicks the portrait, tearing a hole through it and knocking over Pon on the other side.

Moral

"Look before you leap."

Explanation

"Literally: Use a walking stick lest you fall down.

It is important to be well prepared before starting out on any undertaking. You need to learn the lay of the land in advance, and come prepared for what you expect to meet. If you're setting out for rough terrain, for example, you will need a good, sturdy walking stick to keep you from stumbling. Cho's preparation, foresight and watchfulness enabled him to avoid Pon's traps. Bringing George along, of course, didn't hurt either. Oftentimes being prepared is more mental than it is physical, and combined with a good measure of prudence can server you in good stead, indeed."
