Asakichi, Asakichi!
Wait! Everyone wait for a while!
Drop them in!
No!
Wait, you idiot!
She has my baby in her stomach.
Matsuyan!
Asakichi!
Let's go!
Granny, what happened to the Ameya family?
Where is Matsuyan?
Oryuu, don't talk about it!
You must not mention about Ameya anymore.
Go to sleep.
Asakichi, come in and warm yourself.
Granny, you lied to her!
Asakichi
You lied to Matsuyan to go back to Ameya!
Why?
Why did you have to send her back?
You killed her!
Bastard!
Granny monster.
Mom.
Why did you not tell me?
Mom.
I am going up to the mountain this winter.
My maiden family’s granny also went up,
auntie in this family also went up,
I must go up too.
It is hard to live down here.
If I go up, I can meet Matsuyan there.
Going to see Matsuyan.
It's okay, one less mouth
The "rat-baby" also dead.
We can pass this winter without a problem.
"Rat" will be back pretty soon.
Cotton cloth isn't allowed in the Mountain no matter how cold.
Stupid! It’s not there for you to worship.
Later on, you worship the god of the House.
Yes.
Be quick with it.
Idiot, take off your underwear.
Okay.
Come up quickly.
No, not there, stupid!
Yes, right, it's there, move your waist.
Ah... I can't hold it anymore!
It was Katsuzouday before and Ogen yesterday,
it's moving up from the west,
which means it's my turn today.
I can't stand the excitement!
She is coming.
Shit!
I am not included?
Idiot!
Shit!
Stinky woman!
Stinky, you deserve it, not being included!
Your wife was killed
and no one wants to marry you!
Here is the woman who wants to marry me!
You are laughing at me, Harumatsu.
You are looking down on me, you idiot!
I need to teach you a lesson!
I won't let you go!
You idiot!
Harumatsu... Harumatsu... Shit!
Harumatsu!
You idiot!
I heard Kohe jump over your room.
I don't care, I don't care!
You can't give up on yourself like this!
I'll try my best to let you enjoy one night.
Is Kohe coming to pick me up?
Stupid! No, not her.
Listen, only one night, no more than that!
When?
Soon.
But you have to improve yourself.
You cannot act like a fox,
damaging the field and abuse Harumatsu.
One for a night!
It's like what I said last night,
just put up with him for a night.
What if he kills Harumatsu?
We cannot pass this winter safely.
If he damages the field,
the result is as clear as a crystal.
Please, give it to him for one night.
He stinks so much so if I ask someone
I have no money and no potatoes.
Who told you to gamble with potatoes?
Just put up with him...
Stop winding, I understand hearing once.
You didn't go and see Risuke,
he has no heart to work right now.
I know he is smelly so you don't want him.
But you only have to bear him for a night.
I am sorry, I cannot accept him.
I will be dead!
It is your husband's last word!
You cannot just pass by Risuke!
I went to my husband grave this morning
and begged him
not to include the Stinky on the list.
Then, a big butterfly flew to me.
It's still autumn!
You mean your husband became a butterfly?
Yes.
Flying very happily.
He looked really happy.
So I came down with the definite "yes".
I have a bad nose, cannot smell anything.
Of course it doesn't matter.
You mean you will help me with this?
It’s not that I don't like but
I didn't use it for too long.
I don't know whether I can still use it or not.
No problem, he is a cherry boy.
He wouldn't know whether it's old or new.
I will go up tomorrow.
Call those people who been to Mt. Nara tonight.
It’s too early!
Quick! Call them over!
Mom!
Go and call them over quickly.
If not, they will all go up to the mountain to work
and you can't find them anymore.
I saw him, I saw Rihe.
Where?
At the plain in the west mountain.
I will call everyone over.
Dear, Rihe!
It was his soul!
You cannot just return in soul now,
I will never forgive you!
You keep hesitating there,
I am going up to the mountain.
I will never look for you. You rubbish!
When I was 15, I went to bear hunting with dad.
When coming back, I killed him here.
After thinking over and over
I told dad to bring granny up to the mountain.
He suddenly got mad and shouted at me saying
"what do you know!" and started to beat me up.
I fired at him and buried him there.
Tatsuhei,
it's true I like Rihe a lot
but he is the laughingstock in the village.
You didn't kill him, it's the god of the mountain.
Don't tell anyone about this, understood?
Tatsuhei.
Tamayan, distinguish the light.
Asakichi, if you are done there
bring the rice sake here.
Clean the bottom well.
Tatsuhei, it is bit early but
go and have a bath.
Ryu, it's okay.
Tamayan, come here for a minute.
Granny, you are really good in catching fish.
If you see carefully in the daytime,
you can see the fish playing.
Go slowly and when the fish hides below the stone,
remember that place.
Come back at night and catch them with your hand.
You come and try this time.
Tatsuhei asked you to entertain Risuke for a night?
Yes.
You've to refuse firmly.
Yes.
Put your hand into there.
Caught it!
Yes, like this way, like this way.
Now, I have nothing more to teach you.
You can't tell anyone about this place.
You have to come alone to catch.
Going up the mountain is a very hard thing.
Take care.
Good Sake! You are the best!
Getting everything ready well.
The rule must be kept going up the mountain.
One, you cannot talk while you are going up.
You cannot let anyone see you when you go up.
Going up, you have to pass through the foot
passing the tree, go up the third mountain
then you will see a pond.
Go around 3 times and go up the stair case.
Go over one mountain and you'll come to the deep valley.
Go around the mountain about 10 km, you'll come across
seven turns which is called seven valleys.
Passing by the valley, will come to "horse-back".
From there it's path to the Mt. Nara.
Mt. Nara has path but no path.
You go up straight.
The god will be waiting for you there.
When coming down, do not look back.
If you can't bear it, you don't have to go up.
You can reach "horse-back" and come down.
This is a secret, not supposed to say it
so have to say it quietly.
I've already told you.
Here... here... here...
Rhythmic, still usable.
Tatsuhei.
Osuzu.
What happened?
He bit off the rope and ran away.
Really ashamed of you.
You...
How can you offend the god of the Mountain?
While alive, the god and your son
it's not good to cut the fate this way.
Dad, come back here!
Stupid.
What are you doing?
Nothing, this is a rabbit's tooth.
My lucky charm.
Went back?
Mom, are you tired?
I don't need it, mom, you have it.
For many hundred years, our ancestors
have passed this path.
Many hundreds of them... thousands of them.
May be more.
After 25 years,
I will be here too, Asakichi carrying me.
After 25 years, Asakichi will be in my shoes.
No other way.
I heard the god of the mountain waits at the top.
Is it true?
If there is really a god,
it should snow like in the lyrics.
After killing my dad,
I am now killing my mom.
Dad, dad.
Let go!
Dad.
Go up the mountain!
It’s snowing!
Mom, it's snowing!
Mom.
You must be very cold.
Mom, it's lucky to snow while you are
going up the mountain.
It really is snowing.
Neko family's granny Osuzu is a lucky person.
Snowing while going up the mountain.
Very cold, right?
It just snowed right.
So good.
You must be hungry.
Granny is so lucky!
It is same as the lyrics.
It smells so good!
From tonight, she'll be having meal at our place.
No matter how cold it is,
you cannot wear cotton cloth when going up the mountain.
No matter how hard it is,
when snow flakes falls on Mt. Nara,
all the hardship will disappear!
