Thanks for breakfast!
KAGOSHIMA
Light rain forecast in the mountain areas this afternoon
The entire Kagoshima area
will become cloudy in the afternoon
The southern island chains will remain sunny all day
The wind forecast over Sakurajima...
This is... the moon
This is... the wind
What's this?
Um...
A snake?
What do you mean, a snake?
Hey Koichi, what's this?
A ghost?
Mom, I need the school fee for October
You're right, I forgot!
This is a ghost
Dry your hair before you come home
Don't you get it, that's the best part
Don't you get it, summer's over You could catch a cold
Off you go!
What's this?
Sorry!
You're late, Koichi
Sorry I was cleaning my room
Cleaning?
Yeah, the volcanic ash
Doesn't it bug you?
Not anymore
This ash is used in that famous baseball stadium
They do?
They do
You know everything
I don't get it
What?
Why's everyone so calm,
when the volcano's erupting
You should've moved to Fukuoka with your little brother
I WISH
Why'd they build this school at the top of a hill? I don't get it
Morning!
Good morning!
Why'd they build this school at the top of a hill?
Good morning
I wish she was our home room teacher
I know
Mitsumaru
What did you write?
I wrote "Exile"
Is "Exile" a profession?
I'm asking you again
Is "Exile" a profession?
It's the name of a pop group
Yes
Sit down
I asked you what kind of job you want in the future
I can understand "professional baseball player"
But "Ichiro" isn't a profession
All right
Before next class, go find out about your fathers' jobs
You'll need to submit your papers
Got that?
Teacher
What?
Osako doesn't have a father
I see
You don't have a father, Osako?
I do, but we're living apart for now
Anyone else without a dad, raise your hand
He's violating our privacy
If you don't have a father, write about your mother
I'm going to tell my mother and have our teacher fired
Go for it
Feel better
I asked about your profession
Are insects a profession?
What did you write?
Rhinoceros beetle
No wonder he's mad
Take it easy, Tasuku
He really pisses me off
Osako!
So you moved back in with your mother's folks
because of your family situation?
Yes
Actually, I didn't have a father either
Hang in there
Come talk to me anytime I'll support you
Don't you want to move back to Tokyo, Tasuku?
Not really
It's not like living in Tokyo was that much fun
Besides, we've already moved three times
I'm used to it
Ryunosuke, did you hear
about the Tower of the Sun?
KAGOSHIMA - What? - It's under "administrative re-evaluation" It was on the morning news
FUKUOKA - It's going to be torn down? - Yeah, bet they'll get rid of it this year
The four of us went to the Tower of the Sun park a lot
Yeah, but Dad and Mom were always fighting
But Osaka was a whole lot better than this dump
Are the ashes still falling?
Yeah, they make a really loud noise when they fall
I don't get it
I don't get it, either
Swimming Club
My shoe!
Octopus Puffs
Step right up!
I want Ponzu scallions with fish flakes and sauce
How many?
Ten each
Aren't mine better than the ones in Osaka?
Not necessarily
700 Yen
Give me a discount
If you don't, I'll have the shop re-evaluated!
That's scary
Bye bye
See you tomorrow!
I'm home!
In two months,
the Bullet Train will start running throughout Kyushu
Once operational,
the Kyushu Bullet Train will connect
Kagoshima and Hakata at top speeds oft 260 km per hour,
drawing wide regional interest
Let me see
Oh, it says, " A lively place for workers in their 20s "
What is that, age harassment?
Why can't they just write, "Not hiring workers in their 30s"
I'm too old to work a cash register
What if my old classmates shop there...
If only your father made a little more money,
we could support you two,
but he's just about retired
Thanks for dinner
He left his cabbage again
It's so delicious Maybe he doesn't like the crunch
Ryu doesn't like cabbage either
I hope he's eating properly
I told you,
I'm happy to take in both of them
He made his own decision
It's been six months now
I'm sure he's missing his mother about now
I'm sure he is, I know he is
He is, he is
That night, I had a dream
In the car... We got on the bus
and then Koichi took off his helmet
and all this steam came out
Steam really came out I was surprised
Amazing
Sounds like a manga
Wait!
Wait, wait!
I wonder if the four of us will ever live together again
FUKUOKA
Dad! Time to go to the work!
Did you come up with a new song?
Something like this...
Try going back to sleep
Yeah
I'm off!
- Good morning! - Morning!
Morning!
My school bag's so heavy
It's light
I'm borrowing your hat, keep this
No fair
Dragonfly!
You idiot
Damn, I can't catch it
Almost! I just had it
Its wings flapped and it got away
Ryu, your bag!
He ignored me
Not listening
Today's lunch is fried bread
You like it?
It's awful
It's not awful
Morning!
I saw you on TV last night
Thanks
What's Becky like?
She's really pretty and sweet
Actually, have you ever met Ono?
No
If you do, get his autograph
I like Nino
You're out of luck
Why?
There aren't going to be two actresses in one class
Yeah, but I'm not all that serious about acting
You really want to, right?
But the two guys in "Downtown" were in
the same elementary school class
They're comedians
Yeah, comedians are different
I don't know...
Morning
The ash is really falling today
I want to talk to you about something Can I come over tonight?
Not like the last...
No
I'm sure this one will work out
I'll bring the booze
This is the equipment we used in the experiment
We decided to make the soap bubble liquid
using kitchen detergent, laundry detergent,
washing powder and soap
Did you try using shampoo?
You have to use shampoo for soap bubbles
I'll tell you a secret
The Sakura train runs at 260 km/h from Kagoshima
The Tsubame train runs at 260 km/h from Hakata
It happens when they first pass each other
What does?
- A miracle - A miracle?
Because of the intense energy,
whoever sees it, their wish will come true, just like a falling star
Hey, is that really true?
Yeah
Demizu,
Mizumata,
Tosu,
Yatsushiro
Kurume...
They'll pass each other around here
Kumamoto Prefecture
Are you planning a trip?
- No - Yes
Where to?
Kumamoto? The horse-meat sashimi is delicious there
She's barefoot
She's not barefoot, she's barelegged
Barelegged...
It's here
Did you feel something down here?
What?
She's gone
There was a granny there
Time travel?
Amazing
Yeah, amazing
Maybe a wish will come true
with the Bullet Train
Yeah
What's administrative re-evaluation?
You can eat the crumbs
Not potato chips What's administrative re-evaluation?
That's kind of sudden
It's for homework
It means "it's a waste, so cut it out"
Mom said the same thing to you, didn't she...
Listen,
there's room in this world for wasteful things
Imagine if everything had meaning you'd choke
But you can't just have waste
I said, you can't just have waste
Thanks
Come back!
That's when we went out drinking
and I wound up joining the Highdeckers
And 15 years later, I'm back in town, making music
Welcome back!
I'm home
What about the good beer we keep for guests?
Once you're drunk, they all taste the same
No matter how much you drink, it all comes out as pee
After they go home, the toilet's sopping wet
I wonder if it screws up their aim...
Tell them to sit down! We have to clean up their mess
You're right
How are things?
They look tasty
Karukan cake's old fashioned My grandkids won't touch it
When I told my son's wife
about Karukan cake,
she'd never heard of it She asked if it was cat food
Don't...
Even Japanese sweets are all healthy nowadays
and the young girls are crazy about them
I think if we have a new hit product,
our shopping arcade
can come back to life and beat out the one at the station
It's two months until the Bullet Train comes
You think sponge cake will do the trick?
But,
you know those caramels from that ranch up north?
They've got stores throughout Japan,
employing thousands of people
Oh, that's "melting, melting"
Right, "Melting Ranch"
A ranch won't melt
Nozomi!
What do you think?
They became a hit because the owner is a comedian
Yeah, that's what I think
Yama!
- Are you OK? - He's woozy
I closed up shop 5 years ago I'm getting old
It won't be the same...
The taste doesn't matter
Name it "Bullet Train Sponge Cake",
or shape it like a Bullet Train
We'll melt it then
Call it "Melting Sponge Cake"
I'll melt...
Sit down and do it
Just like him...
"At 250 km an hour,
"it runs like it flies
"Vroom, vroom, vroom
"It runs
"Vroom, vroom
"It runs
"The Super Express Blue Light
"At 250 km an hour,
"it runs like it glides "
I don't get it
What? What's wrong?
Nothing
I need a favor
Sorry to keep you waiting Here's you r purchase
Thanks
My grandson kept begging me for these
Thank you
Thank you for visiting the store
I could have had them delivered
I was just out taking a walk
Your father?
He rarely comes to the store Goes fishing nearly everyday
Why do they live so close to a volcano?
What?
I don't get it Why ashes fall
Eruptions are proof the mountain's still alive
It's alive,
so it has to let off energy once in a while
It's letting off too much
But you know...
But...
There sure are a lot more buildings around
If there was a huge eruption now,
everyone in the whole area would have to move
It goes Ba-boom and then rumble-rumble
Isn't that a great idea?
Yeah, it is
Gee, you're cold
C'mon
For the four of us to live together again,
I can't be the only one doing all the work
I know that
It's Ba-boom, rumble-rumble
That's right
Hey, how's Dad?
He's not dating anyone, is he?
You be on the lookout, OK?
That's why you moved to Fukuoka with him
Don't worry He's the same-old Dad
Cut it out
Shoot, someone's with you You sound like you're having fun
Friends, just friends
Thanks!
Hey, what's Ba-boom?
That's a secret with my brother
You can tell me
Ba-boom is just Ba-boom!
Wow! So pretty!
Amazing
It's pink
I lost
I won
You already lost
Not like that
Forget it
Nice, nice
Elegant dance
Reminds me of Africa
- You went to Africa? - Sure did
Fireworks!
What shall I wear?
To your reunion?
It's just 4 or 5 of us going to Karaoke
Is that guy, Kubo, coming?
You be careful now They say it's all the rage
Rekindling love at reunions
What's kindling?
It's rekindling, not kindling
Rekindling?
Rekindling
You don't need to know what it means yet
Here
Thanks
Doesn't he have a phone?
No
And I won't answer if he calls
I wonder how Ryu is doing
It seems like he's having fun
He always took after his father from when he was little
And he's growing vegetables in the garden
Oh, no I'm sure that's...
You know the stuff that musicians use these days...
Oh, no, no
I need you to hang out with me later
What for?
It's just...
I need to dump the molten lava
Did you know about the new club that opened up?
No, no
It's Karukan cake
Karukan cake
Karukan cake, huh
It's lit
I'll see how it smells
- How old are you? - 61
So young
Young
78 Yen
415 Yen
248 Yen
Hold on
You're making Karukan cake?
You're so sweet
Just like this?
They're long, they'll stick out
It's OK
Hello
Oh, welcome
Six bags of granulated sugar
Certainly, thank you
Paper scissors rock
I want to be a professional baseball player
On the lineup now?
Who do you want to be like?
Ichiro I want to hit like Ichiro does
Ichiro always has curry for breakfast
So I eat curry for breakfast, too
Curry?
Every morning? What's that got to do with it?
I don't know, probably not
Promise not to tell?
Marry Teacher Sachi, the librarian
She's way too much older
I know that, but...
A player on the Hawks team married his classmate's mother
She's a lot older
That's not a miracle...
I wish Sakurajima goes ba-boom, rumble-rumble
and has a gigantic eruption like there's never
been before and we can't live here anymore,
so the four of us can go back to living together in Osaka
Hey wait a minute That means we all die
Run away
What's your little brother's wish?
The same thing as you?
Probably...
It's small and dirty
We don't care!
How small is it?
I'm not sure
Hello Ma'am
How unusual, to bring friends home
We're having an important meeting
And you brought guys along You rock, Megumi
Her eyes, just like her mom's, are irresistible
I'll kill you
What's so important?
A miracle
Don't tell
Get in here
I told you it's tiny and dirty
I used to believe in miracles, too
She doesn't even believe in Santa Claus anymore
What would you wish for, if you could?
Let's see...
I'd like to start life over from 20 years old
If I'd worked a little harder in Tokyo,
I wouldn't be entertaining drunks like you, here
Cruel, too cruel
Paper scissors rock
I hate studying more than anything
Remember when they had "Relaxed Education" before?
That "Relaxed,
"Relaxed Education" is gone now
But I want Relaxed Education to come back
And for homework to go away
I wish I could paint beautiful pictures
without working hard at it
You know Beyblade, the top?
I only have 3 right now, and I want a lot more
When I get more of them,
I want to rebuild them and become the best Blader in the world
I do realize it's a totally ridiculous wish
- Very childish - Yes, childish
Another wish?
What else...
What do you want to be when you grow up?
When I grow up? I haven't thought that far
Megumi, you want your rival, Yuna, to go away, right?
Yeah, I want to beat her
She's nice
That's what's hard You can't badmouth her
Hey guys, here!
Thanks!
Thank you
Don't come up This is secret
Don't be mean, I brought you these
Thank you
Megumi looks like her mom
She really does
Your mom used to be an actress, right?
A long, long time ago Before I was born
Why'd she quit?
I don't really know
Maybe she quit because I was born
When I grow up...
I want to be a Masked Rider from TV
But that's...
You can't be
I like him, so I want to try being him
But I want to try something else, so I can't decide
What?
When I grow up I want to drive a super car
What does your older brother...
What miracle does he want?
What's his wish?
He wants the four of us to live together
Apparently, that's his wish
That's not your wish?
No...
You have to!
That night, I had a dream
What do you mean, you quit your job?
Oh, well, I'll find another one
How many times have you said that!
Like I said...
Like you said, what?
We have two children You still act like a student
When things get tough, you shut up
Say something!
- Don't, calm down! - Who cares about your T-shirt!
Calm down!
What's going on inside your head!
Ryu!
- What's going to happen! - Don't throw food
I can't take anymore of that
Grate it in circles
That's right
It won't pile up today
How is it?
Meaning?
How does it taste?
Taste?
Isn't it sweet?
It's only faintly sweet
Faintly?
Slightly
What you mean is, mellow
Yeah, mellow...
It smells good
The flavor's faint
I think it's missing something
It doesn't taste like it used to
I used granulated sugar, this time
to intensify the sweetness
Oh, is that why?
I wanted to give it a try
This isn't half bad
Right?
Nobody else can tell the difference
Do you know the name of the new Bullet Train?
It's "Sakura", the cherry blossom
That's right. You need a Sakura theme to your sponge cake
A Sakura theme?
Dye the filling pink, like Sakura
You can't see that from the outside
No, you have to dye the outside pink
That's impossible Pink is impossible
In that case, forget I ever brought it up
Oh, no...
Tea
What's wrong with dying sponge cake pink?
Everyone knows Karukan cake is white
As a craftsman,
there are some compromises I just cannot make
In these hard times,
who can afford not to compromise?
If I make that, how can I face my guardian angel, Tajima?
Who's more important,
Tajima or your sweet daughter and grandkids?
Tajima...
Hey there
Won't your mom get mad for calling me?
What are you talking about?
If you keep quiet, she'll never know
You've got a point
How's everyone doing?
We're all doing fine
But the thing is...
What? What happened?
If you want to get back together, better not wait
What's that supposed to mean? Does your mom have a boyfriend?
So you want to know?
Then ask her yourself
You know I can't do that
Don't we matter to you anymore?
That's not true
But...
I want you to grow up to become someone
who cares about more than just your own life
What's that mean?
For instance, music,
or the world...
What's the world? I don't get it
You will, soon enough
When's soon enough?
When is soon enough?
Too bad About the Karukan cake
But if you had dyed it pink, it wouldn't be yours
Did you
feel a little something, in here?
Yeah, I did
We've still got what it takes
Do kids today,
feel something about anything?
Because the brakes stop working...
Sometimes Cat-Ear brakes come out
Not the Catbus, but Cat Ears
Cat Ears, I see...
Are you giving up?
Yeah
Why?
Because, I'm sick of it
But you started the whole idea
Miracles don't happen, anyway
You should practice baseball more
Instead of relying on curry
And Koichi, you should just get used to it
To what?
Ichiro is eating udon noodles now, not curry
It doesn't matter
I think it's for the best
Your "miracle " was kind of selfish
Selfish?
I wished the volcano would have a huge eruption,
so the four of us could live together again in Osaka...
I know that... I know that, but...
Mom's started working again and we're in a crisis
But I planted vegetable seeds last month,
and they'll ripen in the spring
Not vegetables again!
Do you care more about your vegetables than your family?
You're just like Dad
Mom said it, too
You were just like Dad from when you were little
What am I supposed to do?
Forget it Have fun where you are
You OK?
Don't you worry We're brothers
But you haven't seen him in a long time
We're connected by a thread you can't see
That's no good
Things are fine
Even family will forget you if you don't see them,
someday...
I'll join them
Me, too
You're in the way
"It starts dancing in your mouth
"That cute girl drinks it, too"
Why'd I get stuck with this thing?
How is it, Yuna?
I'm fine, thank you
See you later
It starts dancing in your mouth
That cute girl drinks it, too
Plenty oft raw milk and bananas
Great, great, let's do it again
Let's keep it lively, Megumi
Put your hand like this
That's right, great smile
Let's go
What's wrong, Marble?
Are you tired?
You're so old...
I'm going home See you!
Hang in there!
Thank you
See you!
See you
Hello
Hello, Mom? I'm eating cabbage...
I hear you're having fun
I'm trying hard so we have fun
Listen, Ryu
Don't you want to see your mother?
Of course I want to see you
In that case,
why can't you say you want to see me?
You think I'm just like Dad,
so I thought maybe you don't like me
Listen, Ryu...
You know that's not true
If that's what you really think, just come over here, now
That's not really it
What is it, then?
I planted fava beans last month
Now they're 4 cm tall
Next spring, they'll ripen
When they do, I'll send you some
You always used to eat fava beans with your beer
And fava bean rice That was delicious
I like it
Yeah? Thanks
Ryu?
Listen
I'll teach you how to make it
Then, you can eat it anytime
What, hey...
Ryu, this is your grandma
No matter what happens with your parents
you're my own blood
You're my grandson, OK?
Sure
I'll send you a big bag of your favorite sweets...
Hey, that doesn't matter
Put his mother back on the phone
- Look - What?
A ticket to the very first Bullet Train
Lucky you
I heard my dad got it
from someone he knows
Lucky you
We have to go to Kumamoto
Even if there's no miracle,
the three of us have to go
I want to go, too
These, please
This is yours, right?
You're right Where'd you find it?
In the courtyard
You figured out it was mine?
I liked the sound of this bell, so I'm happy
Thank you
I like the sound of that bell, too
Why'd you borrow that Kabuki book?
How much for snacks?
In order to get there,
round-trip fare for two, I mean for three,
is 12,240 Yen
What else?
Oh, we need money for food We have to add that in
They should pass each other at 6:40
It leaves at 6:00...
I hope they pass each other
I found 10 Yen!
Great!
I found one!
100 Yen!
I have a lot of action figures at my house
Especially a lot of Ultraman We could sell those
And sell books
Yeah, books!
I've got lots
One, two, three, four...
This is everything
Do you have a letter of consent?
Consent?
We don't have it
Your guardian,
needs to fill out their name and address
and sign this form...
Shoot
What to do?
This is bad...
If we want to catch that train,
we have to leave class in the middle of the 2nd period
But if we tell him, the teacher will figure it out
so the key is how to slip out of class,
without him noticing
Excuse us
This is worth 5,000 Yen
Excellent!
And this is also 5,000 Yen
Great!
Do we have anything else to sell?
Not Marble, he's family
We're just joking
You're unbelievable
Oh, it's Kawashiri That's how you read it
Ka, wa, shi, ri
What do we do?
What about swimming?
Now, we have enough
22,000, 23,000,
24,000, 25,000...
That will be 4,080 Yen per child to Kawashiri
for a total of 12,240 Yen for three tickets
12,240 Yen
Twelve
thousand...
Two hundred-forty Yen
Wait, wait, wait
They're all gone
These crumbs are the best
What if we write in our notebooks,
pretending our moms are excusing us from the 2nd period?
If we leave early, he'll figure it out
And our handwriting's too bad
I've faked a headache and left early
That might work
Hello
Sorry about the other day
Can I come to Kumamoto, too?
What for?
I think our family should all live together
That's sudden
Two is better than one, to communicate
our feeling, I mean, our wish
That's true,
but it costs money
- (Ad lib from here) - From your end about 2,500 Yen
Money we have
What about school?
That day's a half-day
It's been six months Hope I recognize you
Don't be stupid I didn't change that much
I changed a lot
I can even eat cabbage now
That's amazing
And I can swim 400 meters breaststroke style
And butterfly?
Not so much...
I'll teach you how
That'd be great!
Leave it to me
I'm home
You shouldn't have waited up for me
Listen up, Dad, have a seat
What?
What's this all about?
I act like I'm having fun,
but since you and Mom split up,
I've put up with a lot
Well, I'm...
Sorry for what I'm putting you two through
In that case, you're going to have to
put up with things, too
Yeah
You get the child support, right?
Could you give me half of that?
Oh, no
Put up without a new guitar until next month
Oh my, my, my...
What? Finish your homework?
Yeah
Then, go to bed
I want to buy a dress for my audition
You have your white one-piece
It's the same as Yuna's
It's a movie, filming in Tokyo
Tokyo...
Isn't such a nice place
How can I know if I don't go?
Don't get sassy just because someone scouted you
You serious?
I'm serious
You can't pull it off
Why not?
You're too sweet
Are you passionate enough to get ahead
and beat out Yuna in the audition?
I am
No, you aren't Not even close
It doesn't matter,
but that's what it takes to succeed as an actress
But, I am
Hey, Grandpa
Your greeting?
I'm home
Welcome home
Say...
What's up? Need a favor?
How can you tell?
You've been living with us six months now
Allowance?
No
Frozen beans don't taste very good
The beans just fall apart
Teach me how to simmer them
It's easy
Just simmer them with soy sauce and sake
You added something else
Oh, poppy seeds
Poppy seeds!
"To be Alive" by Tanikawa Shuntaro
"To be alive
"To be alive now
"Is to thirst
"Is to be dazzled by the light
"Is to remember a medley...
"Is to remember a melody
"Is to sneeze
"Is to hold your hand
"To be alive
"To be alive now
"Is a miniskirt
"Is a planetarium
"Is Johann Strauss
"Is Picasso
"Is... "
Are you OK?
Are you anemic?
Bet you didn't eat breakfast
I'm sorry
Niihara, take him to the nurse's office
Can you stand?
Teacher, Ota isn't feeling well either
You know our teacher's figured it out
What plans do you three have, today?
No, it's not like that...
When I was in grade school, I cut class
to go to a rock concert
The trick I used was to rub it...
Under my armpit
You guys
What are the three of you up to?
They seem to have fevers
Fevers?
No,
this is all you need to do for a fever
I think it's just the common cold
But what if the other students catch it?
I was just going to call their families
You all right, Koichi?
It's just that...
He's been a little feverish since yesterday
This morning, too
His mother and I discussed if he should come
He showed up early
Yeah
Thanks for looking after my grandson
Because his parents are separated,
please be a father to him...
I wish we could have pulled this off all on our own...
Oh, well
Thank you
If Teacher Sachi won't marry me,
I'll marry the nurse
Me, too
No you can't, I said it first
"Embrace"
"Bump"
"Waves"
Care for sponge cake?
No thanks
Your grandpa stayed up last night, making more
Regular ones
They're regular ones
Off you go!
Hey, hey, I can't find aroma oils
Will regular Buddhist incense work?
Don't use that, Mom
It's not aromatic
Makoto! You're late
What's wrong?
Marble died
You're taking it along?
Yeah, can't I?
Well...
It's not that you can't...
I'll give up professional baseball to bring Marble back to life
That's my miracle
Well, in that case...
Off we go
I'm here!
Cute hat
Oh, great
Rento!
Hurry up!
Here we go
Hey, wait
Let's go
Which platform?
Platform #5, this way
A box lunch?
Box lunch? Which is better?
It's faster to buy and eat
We have an early morning tomorrow Is a box lunch, OK?
But a hamburger would be...
A hamburger?
But hamburgers are expensive...
That's no fun
I can't follow
That hurt!
Again!
Really hurts
The tracks are all elevated
We won't be able to see the Bullet Train
The track's so high
That's Mt. Fugen
It was about 20 years ago
There was a bad eruption
The molten lava killed about 50 people
I don't want to live through that ever again
Hey brother! Long time!
I brought my friends
He's not alone
Nice to meet you
Welcome
Could you see them?
See what?
The Bullet Train tracks
Weren't you watching?
You didn't say you were bringing friends
I figured the more the merrier, right?
Like a school trip?
If they get in the way, I'll leave them
What's wrong with him?
Thank you
Horse-meat sashimi Let's go!
Somebody's going to fall in Splash...
But it doesn't look that deep or that shallow
A fish jumped
Once in a while if you're watching, one jumps
But it's hard to see from here
Look, it jumped
That was super noisy
Really noisy
Look, we're surrounded by fields
I wonder who farms them
Trivia!
In dirty rivers there are lots of crayfish and loaches
3 years for peaches, 8 for persimmon
8 years is long
Super long
But that persimmon was born,
after 8 long years
That's why it's so tasty now
This is a beautiful tree
It's pretty
It's cosmos
Amazing
So many seeds
The petals are so pretty
Look, a bee
I wonder where the people who used to live here went
They must have loved cosmos
Makoto, Tasuku, let's go
The rest of you
Ryu! Let's go!
If you don't follow, I'll leave you behind
Show me the seeds
They're black
We have to find a spot today or we'll miss it tomorrow
Where are we spending the night?
We have to find a spot to watch the trains first
I guess you're right
Let's try getting up on the roof of that supermarket
Good idea, let's go!
Follow me!
What? Run?
No fair...
I'm too tired
Hey, kid Where are you going?
- Jogging - Jogging?
I'm tired
We're almost there
Can you see it?
I can't see it
Can you see it?
I'm so tired
I can't see it
Hey!
Where's Rento?
He's missing
Rento!
Maybe he's below
Why'd you bring him along?
What can I say?
Ask the police?
He's your friend
You're the leader
It's getting dark
Rento!
Are they your friends?
I don't get it Why'd you go to a cop?
Sorry, so that you wouldn't get caught by a cop
Things aren't good
Do you know the address?
I lost the note with the address
I think that's it
Yes, that's it Thank you
Hey, so you're Higashi's granddaughter?
Yes, I am
Why didn't you say? So, you're Noriko's daughter?
Yes, Noriko is my mother
Granny!
Your granddaughter
was lost, so I brought her
Hi Grandma, good evening
I'm sorry we're so late
Yoshidaya's portions are small
so choose Kicho-an
Noodle will go limp, so order rice dishes
I know that! That's just what I was doing
Excuse me
Do they have horse-meat sashimi?
Horse meat?
They don't deliver horse-meat sashimi
Oh, I see
There's no horse-meat sashimi
What? Oh, no
There isn't?
The Bullet Train...
Yes
Can you think of a spot?
That supermarket?
Uto City?
Can you see it from their roof?
We tried but we can't
It's not quite high enough
Are there any tunnels?
There's a tunnel at Matsubase
Yes
If there's a tunnel, we may be able to look down and see it
They may not pass each other there, but we can see them
In that case, you should go to bed early
We'll drive you there tomorrow
Thank you!
"All 4 of us
"living together
"Teacher Sachi...
"Marble will... "
To run?
Not Beyblades
"Well...
"To paint well
"Become an actress"
No wish?
Did I write too big?
It's connected
Your idea about a tunnel was a good one
I hope we can see it tomorrow
Noriko is...
Our only daughter
What is she doing now?
I wonder what she's up to
She left us
She didn't want to stay here
I see
Nice waves in your head
I have curly hair
I see
Does your mother usually brush it?
No, I do...
I see...
Let's sleep
Tomorrow's early
They're doing something crazy
One of them is...
Let's dance to YMCA
They take me back in time
She sure resembles her
That Megumi
When she smiles
When she first said, "Good evening"
I was so surprised
I thought I was dreaming
The number you have dialed...
Mother
Are Koichi and Ryu meeting somewhere?
He's fine
Don't worry He'll be home tomorrow
Leave him be
Eat this
No, you eat it
It's OK
Really?
We used to fight over those crumbs
Yeah
Oh, I forgot
Here
It's still an " Indies" label
Kanna drew this picture
Is that Dad in the middle?
Yeah, even though it doesn't look the least bit like him
Hey, what does "Indies" mean?
I think it means you've gotta work harder
Oh, I forgot
Grandpa made these
Thanks
What do you think?
The flavor's kind of faint
I thought so, too, at first
But this mellow flavor is growing on me
You're so grown up
I'm in Junior High next year
Did you grow taller?
Yeah
Mom was crying on the phone the other day
She's fine She was just a little drunk
OK, then
You look after Dad, OK?
I'm a little worried about Megumi's mom I'll make sure they never meet
It's in your hands
Time to go to bed
Yeah
Thanks for helping us out, yesterday
I felt kind of desperate, but it was kind of fun
You were like an actress...
She is an actress
Yeah
What do you think My friends are cool, right?
Thank you so much!
Let's go
If you have a wish, I can make it for you
Yesterday...
was all we could ask for
What were you saying?
They're too nice, I warned them to be careful about bank frauds
Yeah, you're right I hope they're OK
Here we go!
Let's hurry up
The tracks!
You're right
It's here!
Is it here?
It's coming!
It's here!
From this way, too
I wish Dad's... All works out!
Let me draw better!
I want to be an actress!
I want to run faster!
Bring Marble back to life!
Make Dad quit gambling!
We did it, brother!
Yeah
The train was so fast
I can't believe it
Truly amazing
How is it?
No good Colder than yesterday
Oh...
But my legs hurt
Yeah, mine too
Want to bury him here?
I'll take him home and bury him in the backyard
Say cheese
I hope our wishes come true
You know,
I didn't make a wish
Why not?
I chose the world over my family
Sorry
Actually...
I made a different wish, too
Sorry
It's OK
Dad's all yours, now
That's what you said yesterday
Guess I did
