Excuse me
Watch out
Don't come too close
Um, I came again to talk about
the Wabi fireworks
I'm Shoko's niece
She was my mother's sister
People say I look like her
And, um, I hear d that you went out with her and about...
...the accident
I watched the fireworks with my aunt many times
She always looked forward to your fireworks
Even in the hospital. Before she died
she waited for your Wabi
She stared out the window
I'll never forget how she looked,
as if she was praying while she waited
Takimoto!
You gave up fireworks but my aunt wrote music for you until the end!
Don't you know how she felt while she was waiting for your fireworks?
This is the plan for the show
Wait, what are you doing?
I told you already
I quit fireworks
I'm finished with fireworks
Finished
What a loser
Wow, so beautiful!
So pretty
Wow, amazing
Incredible
Aren't they, Shoko?
The show's over
Can you go home, Kana?
I'll be OK
OK, goodnight
Bye
Why didn't you launch them?
Hello
Came to deliver your order
Thanks
You haven't been back since then
You having a picnic?
Fun, isn't it?
Yeah
Have a seat
Here you go
Wow
Shall we?
Bon appetite
Delicious
Celery with miso?
Not so common
Really good
My boyfriend always ate like this
What did he do?
Made fireworks
So the shop accident...
He. Um...
quit, taking responsibility for my ear injury
I told him
it was his fault I couldn't play the piano
But,
I never did want him to quit fireworks
I honestly wanted him to keep creating fireworks
But that didn't r each him
Once a year
I watched his fireworks and wrote a song
I wanted to compose 10 parts
but there was no 10th show
This...
Oh, that...
The 10th par t
That's the only phrase that came to mind
A song called 'Eternity'
Shoko, would it be OK for me to play it?
He made Wabi, Japanese-style fireworks
Wabi?
Yes
They seemed to bloom forever in the sky
So beautifully
Wabi
Play a bit more brightly
And make the third chord
match the melody a bit more
The third...
Yes
That's it. That's it
Sounds good
Keep going
'Eternity'
Should have let
Shoko and Takimoto get married
They were going to?
They promised each other
But as a parent...
I couldn't forgive the man who took her talent
I wonder,
he must've realized our feelings
He stopped coming after she entered the hospital
It's not your fault
But...
If they had been together,
Shoko would've been happier when she died
Anybody home?
Takimoto
Takimoto!
Takimoto
Takimoto!
Sorry to barge in
It's me, Shoko
What the hell are you saying?
I want to see you launching fireworks
I've had enough of you!
You should know better!
Running again? Like you did from Shoko?
Running?
I know about the accident
and my aunt's hearing loss
But running don't help, you know
Shouldn't have quit if you felt responsible
What do you know?
Shoko...
Shoko's dead
That's why I'm -
fireworks won't help!
You can't pay her back?
All you can do is live like this
for 12 years after quitting?
Who are you to say this?
Don't be so miserable!
If my aunt were still alive,
she'd be sad to see you like this!
Shoko would be crushed!
Listen to me very carefully
She's the one who told me to quit to take responsibility
She's the one who said no to marriage
If I could only meet Shoko one more time
I'm sorry
This...
is something my aunt wrote before she died
She was always inspired to write music during the show
She was holding this in the hospital at the time
I think my aunt is still waiting for your fireworks
I'm leaving
I'm
waiting for your fireworks
Can I help you?
A reading?
"The Crying Red Ogre"
Let's go over there
Have a seat
There was a house
somewhere hidden, on the cliff of a mountain.
Who lived there?
A red ogre lived
A young and lively ogre lived there, alone
He was a lively ogre, but not a violent one
Rather, he was a kind and considerate ogre
The red ogre thought every day,
'I was born as an ogre, but I want to get along with humans '
'I want to be friends with the villagers '
One day he could no longer stop himself
And he hurried and took a wooden plank to write on
It's OK
'I'm a kind ogre. Anybody is welcome '
'I have good snacks and can make tea, too '
The red ogre
put up the sign by his house
Sis!
Kaoru!
Red ogre,
please always be kind and sincere to humans
and show them good times
I have to leave you for a while
and will leave this mountain
Our coming and going to meet
might have caught the attention of humans
That's why I decided to depart on a journey
A long journey, a far journey
But wherever I go, I'll always think of you
I'm sorry, Kaoru
I'm sorry
I'm going
Take car e
Here, take the one you like
This one
Thank you
I'll take care of Kaoru
So don't worry
Thank you
Come back safely, then you're a pro
Yes
Thank you for everything, boss
Hey
Take car e
Time to go
Big sister!
Goodbye!
Sis!
Goodbye!
What'll happen to her?
She'll live out the rest of her life
Wouldn't she be happier here?
But she still has to live
Your job'll be done soon
Leave no r egrets
It's not easy to come back
14 days left
How many special seats?
18 now
Oh, 18. Is that enough?
Ms. Kato said she’d bring money and 4 or 5 people
Oh, she’s coming
So we should get more tables?
Yes
Excuse me
Could we have 30 special seats in total?
30 seats
Shouldn't we have more food?
We should add drinks, too
OK, more food and drinks
I'm back
Hi, Maru
I got sponsorship money
from Fujimura Engineering!
You're amazing, Maru
I got down on my hands and knees
That's too much
Sentaro, you already got 8 sponsors
I have to try, too
Leave it to me
I'll sell my car if I have to and take out a loan
A fireworks loan?
Kanako! It's Mr. Nishiyama
What is it?
Maybe he'll do it for free?
Hey! Put him on hold first!
Could he hear?
Hey, Maru.!
Hello, Nagase speaking
Yes, thank you for calling
Really? Thank you very much
Yes, as soon as possible
Yes, I understand
Yone, what happened?
Take this
Oh, thank you
Come in
It's OK
Come now
Sentaro doesn't like it when I'm around
People will think I'm spoiling him
No one thinks that
Having a hard time with the loving fireworks?
We all know you're doing your best
Have a bit of fun, too
Thank you
Hope it clears up in time for the show
Me too
My back hurts when it rains
Don't be an old lady
I am!
It's stopped raining a bit
Gotta go now
Really? Take care
Good luck
Thanks
See you
Bye now
That's it. That's it
Not bad at all
Thanks
Can you add a bass line?
Good. Keep going
Wait, wait. That sounds too common
Oh, that's it
Right
Thanks
Shoko,
I've finally realized why I'm here in heaven
It was my dream to compose and play my own music
But when I was brought her e, I couldn't
I'm not dead yet
My job'll be done soon
So...
So while I'm here
Let's finish the song
Right...
Shall we continue then?
Yes
No, no, no!
More forcefully
Yes
That's it!
That was great
'A Bright Place'
'A Fragment of August'
'The Celery Flower'
'To a New World'
'Crimson'
'Heaven and the Sea'
'Buried Sand'
'Eternity'
Everyday all you talk about is Yui
Yui's story is finished. No second act
There is
Really? How?
When I take over your job, I can go to earth to meet her
Heaven and earth will -
Enough!
Cool your head off a bit
You work in the store from now
Hey there!
Check this out
Is it for me?
It's mine. Can't play it, though
Kenta
Today's your last day
Thank you
Not at all
I'll be on my own if you leave
Come back
Hey, when he comes back he'll be dead for real
That piano...
Play it well
Yes
Thank you so much
Ouch!
Can't open it
Why's that?
You can't open it
I can't?
C'mon, open it
Hi there
How's it going?
Need someone to hold it
Somebody help!
Ms. Nagase
How are you doing?
For everyone
Thank you
Great weather
Preparations are going well
Should be OK with this wind
I honestly wasn't sure in the beginning
But I'm glad I came
Couldn't hear you play,
but I'll never forget your music
Don't come back soon
I won't
I'm glad I met you
Take car e
You too
We're off
Thank you!
Wow, look at that
Beautiful!
The next part is sponsored by Fujimura Engineering
'The Starmines'
These are my fireworks
No, they're not yours
Your sponsor's fireworks
They're mine
Wonder if Takimoto will show
Not giving up yet
Roger that
Starmines from 2.5, start.
Still more to come
Two more to go
Five, please
500 yen each
Got five here
I'll take change for 3000
OK, thank you
Thanks
Look out
Oh, excuse me
This? Thanks
Boss!
Kenta's ready. All's ready
Two of 'em!
Yes, thanks
Oh, here they come
Takimoto isn't coming
Should we announce that it's over?
It's over
Thank you
The Mihama Shop District Fireworks Show
is now finished
What a show
Thank you so much. Thank you
Thank you
They were great
Can't be helped if that was Takimoto's answer
It was a big success
People will be even more excited next year
You were the most excited
They were great, Kana
Well done
No loving fireworks,
but I almost fell in love with Kana
How about marrying my unworthy son?
Sentaro's not unworthy
And, don't forget we're not married
Yone
What?
They were great
They were beautiful
Kanako! Help!
On my way
Hurry!
Thank you so much. Take car e
Thank you
They're loving fireworks
They're beautiful
Is this...
'Eternity'?
Excuse me
That song...
'Eternity'
Why...
Why do you know it?
I was with her
Believe me?
Wabi fireworks
