Dad I'm home!
- Miu, What's wrong?
- Nothing's wrong. I just came back
to my house.
- Huh?
- Let's eat!
What's wrong? Hurry and stir the Natto.
- Hm? Yeah.
- Ah, Spider. - Huh?
- There's a huge spider on your shoulder!
- Huh? - There, there, there, there, there!
Oh no! Oh no!
- Where is it?
Where?
- "I'm leaving!" - "Be safe!"
- It's ready.
Miu, is bread ok for breakfast?
- Yeah, I love bread! - I see.
Can you butter it yourself?
- Here.
- Should Grandma do it for you?
- I'm alright!
- Wow you're good. - Great. Great.
You're good.
- "Eat rice to gain energy."
"Eat Natto and you gain tenacity."
"Your willpower grows."
- "So people who eat bread have no willpower?"
- "It's a proven fact."
- Would you rather have jam?
- No, I'm fine!
Let's eat. - Yes.
- Mmm!
Hey Grandma, When I finish breakfast
can I feed U-chan? - Of course.
- Oh in that case, you can give
U-chan it's favorite thing.
- That? - Yeah.
- This?
You're great U-chan.
I can't stand carrots.
Oh good. Good. You handled it well.
"Don't forget to water the plants."
"They can't die before I come back."
- Grow strong.
Alright!

- He's Depressed? - Of course.
- Because he's been with Miu for the past
8 years and then he suddenly let's her go.
- But that was the choice Kei made himself.
- Even if he made the choice himself,
the reality is depressing.
- Well That's true. - So everyone
knows. - Huh, knows what?
- You know don't you?
- Sorry I don't understand at all. - You know!
- Kei has suddenly become depressed
and loney but he's still here.
So we all need to…
- Morning. - Oh, Kei.
Morning. - Morning.
- Nice to see you Kei,
Morning. - Good Morning.
Is there something on my face?
- He doesn't look that depressed.
- This depressed economy is troubling
for everyone right now. - That's right. The economy
is depressed. - Have you received a
phone call from Miu? - Idiot, don't say anything unnecessary.
Um, guys,
I'm thankful that you're worried about me
but I'm alright.
I'll head into the factory first.
- That's just like Kei. As for me, If I don't see
my girlfriend for 3 days I get super depressed.
- It must actually be tough on him. - Usually when you want
to hide it, you dance around with a happy face.
- Anyway let's just keep an eye on Kei for a while.
Yes. - Yes.
- Kei, next time you're free,
how about you come buy a dream with me?
- Buy a dream? - Horse racing. That's my hope.
I'm talking about the feeling you get when the horse that
only you believed in wins first place.
- Kei, please don't accept that invitation down a bad road!
- What bad road?
- If you dump all your money into horse racing,
then I don't want to see you hard up
before the next pay day!
- I want to rise up from hell. That's my hope.
- Kei, instead of horse racing, how about you got to the beach with me?
- What are 2 guys going to do at the beach? - We can
run towards the sunset. Then you can face the ocean and yell
"Idiot!" - The idiot is you.
Kei, Horse racing or Idiot at the ocean, which do you choose?
- Ocean right? - A man's hope right?
Doesn't matter, I'll just accept the thought.
Idiot, we could've done my thing this week and your's next week!
I'm worried about Kei,
but I'm more worried about Miu.
- Yeah.
- It's fine that she thinks that it's just for the summer,
but when she learns that she can never come back,
How is Miu going to react?
That's something Kei
decided on with Miu's future in mind.
- I know. But still. - It may be painful now,
but you will certainly think it was for the best in the future.
- Yeah because Kei thought this through before deciding.
- I just wonder if this is truly the right thing to do.
- Mom,
Don't say anything unnecessary to Kei.
- That's right. Don't
say anything to confuse him.
- I wonder how Miu's doing.
Where's your father U-chan?
Aren't you lonely not seeing him?
Kei,
are you really not regretting it?
I'm referring to letting go of Miu.
- Yes. - But Miu still
doesn't know the truth.
She doesn't know that you'll
never live together again, does she?
Doesn't that mean you still have time to rethink it?
- Kei! - If you want, you can
talk to me about it.
- What are you up to? - Nothing.
- What did Chieko say?
- It was nothing.
Come with me to the bar tonight.
- Oh nice. - I'd love a beer.
Especially on the Boss's dime. - Who invited y'all?
Just Kei and I are going. - You can't do that Señor.
- Please take us too. - No!
If you come with us, you'll certainly derail the conversation.
I've learned. Right Kei? - Miser.
- Cheapskate. - Stingy.
Let's eat! - Let's eat.
Miu, if you don't like carrots,
you don't have to force yourself to eat them.
- Really? - Yeah.
"When you get to Numazu, make sure you eat carrots and mushrooms
whether you like them or not."
But It's alright.
Oh good, good.
Good Miu.
I'm sorry.
- Hm? For what?
I've distracted everyone
with Miu and My situation.
- For a small local factory like mine, it's
"One for all and all for one."
- Yes.
- I think you made a good decision.
In light of you terrible disease,
I can't even imagine the pain your going through...
As a father, I can sort of understand the pain
of letting your daughter go.
I think back to when Akane left home.
Honestly, it was tough.
I never said it to anyone though.
- Is it really that difficult having your daughter leave?
- It hurts.
- I see.
As I was raising Miu,
I knew such a day would come.
Just the thought would bring about feelings.
- Well no parent
can live with their child forever.
Girls in particular,
because someday, they're going to go off a be somebody's bride.
- That's true.
- I guess that "someday" came a bit too soon for you Kei.
- Yes.
- She'll be alright.
Females are strong.
They can survive.
Someday, the day
when Miu understands why you did this will come.
No matter how far apart you are
family will always be family.
- Good evening! - Oh, Kotaro.
What are you doing here at this time? - Mom said,
"Eat dinner here today."
- I guess you can't help it.
- Miu went to her Grandparents
in Numazu, right? - Yeah.
- Did you come here to drink because you're lonely at home by yourself?
- You know me well.
I was crying my eyes out earlier.
- Just like a baby.
Must be nice.
It be great if Kotaro would go somewhere for a week.
- Hey hey, are you serious?
- Of course I'm serious. - Mom,
It's been fun, so long!
- Bye. Be careful. Have a nice trip.
- Stop playing!
Sorry, Sorry. Let's have dinner.
Excuse us, take your time.
How about just one glass?
Sure, just one.
"Let's cross Horifune Bridge"
"Let's go home."
"Everyone at the factory is waiting."
Bridge is done! - Oh good. good.
I'd like you to show me more but it'll have to wait until tomorrow.
Miu, it's bedtime. - Yeah.
- Can you sleep by yourself?
- Yes. Goodnight.
- Goodnight.
Bridge, Dad taught me it.
"Let's cross London bridge"
"While singing."
"Let's cross London bridge"
"Let's cross London bridge together."
"Look. Finished." - "I want to try too."
Ocean. Cat. Bike.
- Ocean. Cat. Bike.
- Next will be math problems.
100 minus 7?
- 93.
- 93 minus 7?
- 86.
- And another 7 from that?
- 79.
- Try to say the words from earlier.
- Ocean…
Ocean...
This means...
that the disease has progressed?
Unfortunately, I think that is a high possibility.
- Based off of this…
around when
will I begin
to forget about my family?
I want to know at all costs so that
I can think about what to do with Miu.
- From your present condition,
I'd say...
about 5 years.
- 5 years.
Of course the speed of the progression varies from person to person,
more importantly for you to think about before it's too late...
For Miu's future's sake,
it's best that
you get your preparations in order starting now.
- 5 years.
- Ah!
- Oh,
Sorry about borrowing your bike before.
- You can't do it again.
- I know.
- Is Miu still at her Grandparents?
- Yeah. - When she comes back,
please tell her I said to "Come see the ballet recital pictures."
- OK, I'll tell her.
- Thank you.
How did the Ballet recital go Nako?
- Well personally, I think it was a beautiful performance.
- Thanks for the food.
Akio, Eating like a fool is bad for the body.
- I appreciate the concern.
Ow.
- Hey do you really think it's fine like this?
- Yeah. This rice bowl is really good.
- Silly. I'm talking about Kei and Miu.
- Huh? - My husband and Akane
both say that it's fine but
I don't think so. - So you're saying?
- Don't you think it's a mistake
for a parent and child to live apart
irregardless of reason? - Mmm but
Kei... - He's faking it.
He's smiling on the outside but crying on the inside.
He's smiling on the outside but crying on the inside?
- Think about yourself,
how would you feel if you could never see the person
most important to you.
- I couldn't live! - I think Kei would
reconsider if he could see Miu's face one more time.
It's not going to grow at night.
- I know that much.
- Yeah I know.
- Tokyo's night sky is
surprisingly pretty.
- Yeah.
Toss me one.
- Hm?
- A cigarette.
- You sure?
- It's fine.
- Ok, here goes...
Here.
- Thank you.
- Not gonna smoke it?
- I just wanted to smell it.
I'll give it back.
- Huh?
- Here it comes.
Can you sleep alone?
- Don't be silly. I'm not a child.
- Goodnight.
Eat a lot and grow big.
My dad is a very tall and strong man.
He always says, "Eat Natto to gain willpower."
- Miu, Breakfast.
- Coming!
Morning. - Good morning.
Let's begin.
Let's eat.
- I want to eat Natto. - Natto?
- Natto instead of bread? - You don't know?
Eat Natto and you gain tenacity and willpower.
Alright.
- Thanks for coming on your day off. - No problem.
Hey Kei. - Huh? What's up?
Dumb as ever?
- "He's faking it. Smiling on the outside and crying on the inside."
- Alright!
- What you "Alright"-ing about?
- Kei, There's somewhere I want
you to come with me to.
- Where? - The beach.
- Huh? - Didn't I tell you,
"Let's go on a drive sometime."
- I don't want to. - When you see the big ocean,
your feelings will change.
- Give me a break. - I'll wake you up
when we get there so you can sleep on the way.
- I'm not running into the sunset.
That's fine, I'll run and shout for you.
Departing the station!
Kei we're here.
- Which beach is this?
- Numazu.
- Numazu. You…
- Kei, please see
Miu one more time. - What?
This is why we came all the way to Numazu.
Then this whole time...
"Um, Could you tell me the
Grandma's address in Numazu?" - "Why?"
- "Well I was thinking of sending Miu a greeting card."
No matter how dumb I may be, I understand your feelings.
Kei, you're smiling on the outside but crying on the inside, right?
- What are you saying?
- Regardless,
just go take a look.
If you want, just take her and go.
I was very good at getting away in the past.
Grandpa lost, I win.
Yey!
- Oh, I lost. - Hang in there.
- What a shame.
- Ok, Miu's turn. - Alright, here goes...
- Yeah. - Aim for it.
- Oh! - I did it.
I did it. I did it. I did it! I win!
- One more time? - Yeah!
- Alright, this time I won't lose.
- I won't lose either.
- Next is Grandpa's turn.
- I can't do it.
- If you put it in, you win too. - I won't win.
Alright.
Oh, Miu wins. - I win!
- Yey, champion!
Did you meet her?
- Yeah.
- How'd it go?
- She's fine.
- Are you sure you don't want to bring her back with you?
- There's not point in doing that.
- But...
- Akio.
Thanks.
Hurry, start the car.
- Yes.
"You didn't lock the door so I let myself in."
"Even though it's just you, you need to lock your door."
"Since you already cleaned and did laundry, I just cooked for you."
"Since I also made you lunch
I don't know if you're tired of my cooking,
but please help yourself if you want."
"Don't struggle on your own."
"Please call on me anytime."
"Chieko."
Hello, Uehara residence.
Keisuke. Ok, hold on a second.
Miu, your Dad.
- My Dad?
- Miu, doing well?
- Yeah, I'm fine. Today
I played putting golf with Grandpa and Grandma.
- I see. That's nice.
Are you being a good girl and listening to
what Grandpa and Grandma say?
- Yeah. I even get along with U-chan the rabbit.
I'll introduce you when you come to Numazu.
- Sure, I look forward to it.
- How are you?
Is you illness getting better?
- Yeah, I'm hanging in there.
- You aren't smoking again
just because I'm not there are you?
- I'm not.
- Are you taking your medicine?
- I am.
- I can't wait to see you again in 1 week when summer's over.
- Me too.
"Dear Miu,"
"Hearing your cheerful voice after
so long put me at ease."
"When we first separated,
I thought once again,
that you really are precious to me."
"The most precious to me in the world."
"That's why
even though we live apart,
I'm always thinking of you."
- Goodnight Dad.
"On the last dad of Summer vacation, I will come meet you in Numazu."
"At that time,
I have something important to tell you."
"Please listen."
"Book fee form"
"Certificate of Enrollment"
"Transfer form"
You took Kei to Numazu?
- Yes. - What for?
- Wanted to let Kei see Miu.
- So did they meet?
- Probably? He said she's doing fine.
- And then? - We came back to Tokyo.
- That's it? - That's it.
- Why would you do such a thing!?
- But boss you said it yourself. Kei is hurting.
- Seeing her will just cause more pain.
- The tough decision to live
apart was made for the sake of their futures.
- But still... - Isn't the future
just a continuation of the present?
If things are great now
won't the future be bright as well?
- What are you saying?
- To be blunt, I think
that Kei and Miu should live together again.
- What? - No matter the circumstance
a parent shouldn't separate from their child.
They should live together.
Not wanting to trouble Miu,
Ensuring Miu's saftey,
Kei considered these things
when he made his decision! - That's why
I say he should think it over once more.
- I think so too. - Be quiet fool.
- I'm just going to come out and say it.
The truth is
that I also think that Miu and Kei should live together!
For Kei's sake, and Miu's too!
- In that case... - However,
This is Kei's decision to make!
We have no say in the matter!
- I don't consider
Kei to be an unrelated person.
I think of Kei,
and Miu as well,
as members of my family.
You've said the same thing... - That was in regards
to a different matter.
No matter how concerned we are,
the one who decides what to do in the end
is Kei!
- We can't take responsibility for this.
- Yes we can - What!?
If the worst were to happen,
and Kei could no longer care for Miu,
I would take responsibility for Miu.
I'd
do my best.
- I said the same thing.
3 Years ago,
I said the same thing about my mother-in-law.
When discussing taking
in my sick mom I said,
"I'll do my best."
However, that resulted in
me being worn thin...
My mother ended up in a traffic accident.
I'll be alright.
No matter what. I'll protect Miu.
- I also
want to help Kei and Miu live together!
But
It's been said numerous times.
You can't do anything with just feelings alone.
- Akane's mother-in-law's and Kei's
illnesses may have the same name
but seem to be completely different.
- What are you talking about? - Well Miu
is Kei's real daughter.
Are there many people
in such a situation?
Because I'm dumb, I don't understand difficult topics, but…
It's a given that
you want to be with those dear to you!
With our support,
Kei and Miu don't have to live apart...
Because I'll give it my all!
Sorry. I've said too much.
- You're slow in realizing that.
Miu,
A letter from your Dad.
From Dad?
"Dear Miu, Hearing
your cheerful voice after
"When we first separated,
I thought once again,
that you really are precious to me."
"The most precious to me in the world."
"That's why
even though we live apart,
I'm always thinking of you."
"On the last dad of Summer vacation, I will come meet you in Numazu."
"At that time,
I have something important to tell you."
"Please listen."
"To my beloved Miu."
"From Dad."
Something to tell me?
