Yes.
It's been all explanations lately, hasn't it?
Plus they tell me to speak quickly, it's practically a tongue-twister already
Then, in the end it got cut.
Everything got cut.
Just unbelievable
Noo! Hey, tell me
This is not easy
It's Goddess of Mercy
Hachiya-sensei's sister, that is...
Yes, long time no see, Sister
During the chapel fire, she is the female student who was at the scene.
So, the culprit!
She was falsely accused.
She is a victim, so to speak.
To be able to meet again like this...
You've been through a lot, haven't you?
Yes, since I could not rely on my parents.
I took high school qualifications through correspondence while working part time
Then I was picked up by a Tokyo publishing firm...
That's it. I can't listen anymore.
What is this?
Making yourself the heroine of a tragedy?
Please do the sister fight later.
Since this Autumn, as a freelance writer
I've been working for T?kai Teen.
By chance I heard about my alma mater's joint cultural festival there.
Since I was part of the organizing committee too when I was a student
I can't anymore. I want to confess it all
If I confessed it all, how at ease would I be
Can't you tell by looking?
The people here, pretty much everyone
uses Sorry Eel goods regularly.
Who would've thought that there are this many listeners near me
This is the end of the rope! Bed of nails!
Calm down, Principal!
You're sweating so much!
I'm sorry!
What do we do?
Ah, right
This is a rare chance to raise the name recognition of our Seishun High
Seems like in high schools that are written on, more students take the entrance exam and the passing rate increases too!
Plus, coupling it with the wave
Web okay, not wave
If Sannomiya-sensei gives your permission...
Could you please not prattle on by yourself!
Yes, uh, we will think this though in a positive manner. Right, Hara-sensei?
Yes!
GOMEN NE SEISHUN! Regret from My School Days 9
Sunday Theater
When I took the Principal's office, I thought of quitting.
Huh?
Regarding radio
The staff stalled me, sneakily
Uhm, can I shake your hand?
Don't tell anyone
I don't feel anything
Because we meet every day
Welcome
Dad
I called him
No one called you
Over here please
Dad
Yuko
Am I disturbing you?
Of course I am
I'll go somewhere
You're not. Stay here.
Go somewhere, after all
5 or 10 minutes.
Leave your belongings here.
Take your cellphone
Yuko!
Where are you going?
Are you running away, Beiyan!?
Not running away...
Please go with her
Forgive me.
I was not able to believe you.
I know.
Because I listened to the radio.
As you know!
Me too, I'm sorry for worrying you.
When I was staying in Atami for work, by chance
there was this at the hotel.
After I called, I was surprised that Satoshi-kun came
The thing after, I listened through the radio.
No way...
I'm sorry
Those of us who don't listen to the radio, we don't get whatever's going on at all.
Right, 3D
Yeah
Has the arson culprit been arrested?
Ah, no, not yet, right?
Like I thought.
From some interview, I heard once that the statue of limitations for uninhabited building arson is 10 years.
I made an inquiry to the Mishima Police.
Was it 3-4 years ago?
Yuko
Of course, the investigation had long been closed.
But the police told me something.
There were remains of fireworks laying at the scene.
Fireworks?
Miss
Why did you come to Mishima again?
Seishun Festival interview.
Then, drop the fire
It is of no concern for you
But...
The joint cultural festival 14 years ago that you ruined and derailed
my son and your sister, they teamed up and got it realized.
I'm saying it's only a few days away.
Are you going to ruin it again?
As said before, we had nothing to do with the fire.
If that's the case you should have said so at that time.
Before you disappeared.
You ran away that's why you were suspected, wasn't it?
Priest, that's enough
Zen-chan, sorry
I was the one who ruined it, huh
Don't undergo hardships because of our kids
Are you okay, about my sister?
Yes.
To be honest, I don't know what to say to her anyway.
What about me?
Do you know what I want you to say to me now?
Uh, uhm...
It's fine
At least be quiet and listen
Yes
What the heck!?
Single-handedly going away, then coming back at this time
Aaaalways, the center of conversation is that woman!
Day of ballet recital too
She got appendicitis on purpose and Dad and Mom didn't come to see me!
Sports day, field trip too!
Because of Onee-chan I can't have fun at all!
Even now! When finally it's just the two of us
it's not fun at all!
I feel refreshed.
Let's go back.
Thank you for your kind attention
What should have I said to her, I wonder?
"If you're holding a grudge against your sister, hold it against me!" something like that?
Say something, Mom
What was that just now? Rap sound?
Aniki!
There's someone in the kitchen! Intruder! Trespassing!
Wrong.
Dad's remarriage partner.
Setsuko-san. Once we get married, she becomes Hara Setsuko.
Hara Setsuko: retired Japanese actress
Really?
Good morning Secchan
Morning
Miso soup with fried tofu
Miso is make-or-break miso
Ah, morning
Good morning
Eldest son Ippei and second son Heisuke
Breakfast will be ready soon
It smells good
What do you think, Aniki?
How should I put it, there's nothing I can tease about
Right? Me too.
Dad's remarriage partner, you know
Like, a lot fatter, or
You'd want to say "Western!" or "Latina!" right, but
All things considered, with that beautiful mature woman...
Bringing rice-bran paste pickles, isn't she perfect?
What was Elenacho's trousseau again?
Balance ball and Nintendo DS.
Was she going on a school trip?
Morning
That tamagoyaki looks delicious!
tamagoyaki: Japanese-style fried egg/omelette
She is tamed already
Well, for Elenacho she's mother-in-law~
How much/dondake with forefinger is a well-known catchphrase of a TV personality
Don't say it like saying "How much"
Is everyone here?
Okay, then let's eat
I gratefully accept
You know, before that, could you please explain this properly?
There's a thing called order, isn't there?
Without discussing one bit with the family
That is not right.
It's not unthinkable for Heisuke-san to get angry.
No, it's not that I'm angry.
Aniki is...
The rice is hard
That!?
Is that so?
Don't you know?
Dad, I, and my brother like soft rice.
Mom, seconds
Yes
It does not seem like that is the case for my wife though.
This stiff hard rice is not something edible
Alright
How is it?
Soft
I'm glad
It's unbelievably soft, Mom
If you use cooking wine, it plumps up. Heisuke-san too...
I'm not acknowledging this!
Heisuke!
Bringing in an unknown woman out of the blue,
call her Mom starting today, what kind...
Where are you going?
Furikake. This is your favorite brand right?
furikake: dried spices, etc. that is spread over rice
Okay, rolling.
Be brisk
In charge of pamphlet and on the day will be a bearer for men mikoshi, I'm Ooki
mikoshi: portable shrine
Tell us the circumstances that lead to the decision to do the cultural festival jointly
That goes without saying, Heichan
Heichan-sensei pulled us all....
Don't talk about me... Don't film, don't film!
Haunted house will be on Tonkou's 3rd floor. This was Narita.
I'm Handa, the student body president.
With Hara-sensei's enthusiasm and Hachiya-sensei's whip of love
Seishun Festival preparation is steadily...
If Hara-sensei were not here, not only the cultural festival, the merger wouldn't have happened.
I wouldn't know Endou-chan either.
I am Endou, who was introduced.
On the day of the event, I will be at Quiz King final match at the outdoors stage and
Endou Musical and,
concurrently serving fish, meat, and vegetables stew at the store.
I am Ebisawa. I'll be performing as a visual kei band at the gym.
What is the name of the band?
Ebi en Grey, Hara-sensei named us.
Pun on Dir en Grey, a very famous visual-kei band By the way ebi means shrimp
We'll be doing "Seishun Cafe"
This uniform was designed by Nakai-san who transferred to Tokyo.
On the 2nd day of the event we'll also hold Mr. and Ms. Seishun, everyone do come!
Don't talk to me. We're definitely not gonna finish it in time.
Monkey, wake up!
Monkey's sleeping face will float in the internet.
What do you think of Hara-sensei who newly became your homeroom teacher?
About Droopy Kappa?
He may look like that but he's passionate, and really thinks of students.
Right?
In nationwide droopy eyes ranking, wouldn't he be in the top ranks?
First
You're very popular
You think so?
Everyone says that it's all thanks to Hara-sensei's enthusiasm.
If I had had a teacher like Hara-sensei when I was a student, I might have fallen for him.
I was there, though
I was at Tonkou
No, uh
I meant if there were a Sanjo teacher like that
Ok ok
Well then, until tomorrow
I'll walk you downstairs
No, here is fine
Please tell your father I'm sorry about yesterday.
To Dad?
Bye
Hara-kun
Hara-kun!?
Can I stay over tonight?
It's hard to be at home.
I can, right?
Hara-kun's house has many rooms too.
We're friends, right
It's not like that
But right now, at home, it's all over the place, a mess
We're home
Yes yes
Ooh
My friend. She's staying over tonight.
My dad's second wife.
I see
Heisuke-san, what about dinner?
Don't bother!
No, that can't...
Excuse me
How many nights are you planning to stay?
It's not a mess at all, is it?
School related Hobbies Tools Books
I'll put my bag here okay
Hobbies Tools
It's that woman's doing.
During the day she came in on her own and tidied up.
What is hell, that woman who works to the point of hateful. Is she a household chore machine!?
This "side dishes" box, what is it?
Wa wa wait...
Nah uh
Let's go to bed already?
Oh, it's starting right away huh
Mom!
What could it be...
What is it, Secchan, what happened?
Rap phenomenon, she said
Rap phenomenon: psychic/paranormal phenomenon where sound is heard in rooms without anyone involved/present
Oh that
I was born in Tokyo, raised in hip hop
Not that rap!
Why do you know that kind of thing anyway!?
I'm sorry, although I have no sixth sense
Actually the other day, I got sleep paralysis.
Don't tell me, Mom's jealousy...
When I heard that Satoshi-kun has been taking care of my father, I was surprised.
"Taking care"...
Your father is still totally healthy.
Thank you
Stop it. It's really not like that.
Uhm,
radio...
Ah, Beiyan recommended it to me, and so I listen to it, sometimes.
Not that funny, it's just right.
Beiyan that day wasn't really listening though, apparently.
Alright then, I guess I should go
One of these days, I wonder if
Beiyan will do "Sorry!" too
Are you not going to bed?
Lesson prep
My hands have been full with the cultural festival, so I'm behind.
Is that so
Good night
Are you not interested in love?
Adding core question after "Good night," please stop that
I can't sleep.
You're back to using polite language.
She had been using nonpolite language since she said "Hara-kun" in his ear
I'm matching you
Got it.
Then, except at school, we're friends
Let's both excuse using friend-speak.
Go ahead.
Can I add a core point too?
Sure
I would like you to forgive your sister.
Me?
My sister?
I think she came back with considerable resolve.
If the cultural festival was the trigger,
I think that's great.
If the fire 14 years ago
ripped apart you sisters
like it ripped apart Tonkou and Sanjo,
restoring the relationship between you two to as before
is my...
I'm sorry
I can't
"I'm sorry"...
Why are you apologizing?
You got rejected right?
This "I'm sorry" is
next time...
Haa?
Sorry
Mom!
Sorry
I'm not your mom
Uh anyway
um cultural festival, let's give it our best, okay
Yes
That's all!? Even though side by side the whole night
just held hands and the end!?
It's not whole night, Awashima-senpai
I've stayed there for 10 nights straight
Irritatingly slow!
What's with that distance, what are you doing, Hachiya!
You're not middle school students. Right?
Why are you here!?
Is it enough? Have my tamagoyaki
Yay! Pardon me!
So good! Thanks for the food!
I think the thing with my sister drags him.
Nothing will come out of competing anyway.
If she pulls out her female powers I don't have a chance of winning.
Hachiya, to grab men
you start from the stomach.
Stomach?
Stop working for a minute, go to your seats
Okay
Tonkou and Sanjo's joint cultural festival is finally tomorrow.
The 0th Seishun Festival will begin.
Are you all set?
Anyone have announcements?
Yes yes
Okay Ooki-kun
There are not enough people to carry the men mikoshi so
even girls are fine already, please sign up with vigor!
Yes
Okay
One thing from me as the student president.
As much as possible please take home the trash.
The trash cans on each floor are for guests only.
For how long is Franken going to stay Franken?
I'm sorry
I haven't gone and seen everything but
you've worked your hardest in the limited time.
Yeah, it's really something.
Dang, got praised by Black Tiger.
What will you be performing, Sensei?
That's...
look forward to it on the day
Unthinkable, isn't it?
Starting next year, all classes will be like this.
I like Bir!
They look like they're having fun. It's as if it had been coed all along.
Alright, let's go inside
Alright problem, Perry, Shelly, LiLiCo, who is not an American?
Commodore Perry. Shelly and LiLiCo are talento. LiLico is part Swedish
That's a question for tomorrow's event!
It's cold, Akishima Quiz Idiot
Getting annoyed, huh Jinbou-san
But you said something good just now
"Cold"
"Cold" is taken from the cold of winter
It is said that the air of a place freezes because of a boring joke.
Originally a jargon used amongst comedians but
now it is written in the dictionary.
"To slip" is similar
For me, I think this is a word born out of kindness.
Rather than "boring" "cold" is
kinda feels more salvageable, don't you think?
Then then then, the antonym of "cold" is what?
"Cracks me up"
Idiot, of course "hot"
That's right, "hot"
Let me be frank
Cultural festivals are typically cold.
It can't be helped. Since it's not by professionals but high school students.
What was it again, Ebisawa's band?
Ebi en Grey
So cold!
You came up with it!
Sensei named it!
Cold!
But but but, it's not exactly boring
I think it's ordinarily interesting.
I get it. Ebisawa is cold, but not boring.
True, Akishima too.
Thanks!
That's exactly what I mean! Exactly that part of you!
That's why, everyone, please watch
Ebisawa's coldness resolutely.
Ebisawa too, don't be afraid of the coldness and do it properly, ok?
Compared to someone saying "cold" and making fun of the guy doing something cold, the guy is more
Hot!
Yes! Do you know why?
Because the people laughing and saying "cold" are on the outside after all.
I, when I was a student, since I was acting cool
I was looking at the people having fun from the outside.
Those people getting heated up, I said so stupid and laughed at them.
I was that kind of cold guy.
Participating is cold, those not participating are colder.
Then it's better to participate isn't it
Starting tomorrow the coming 2 days are very cold.
Let's dress warmly and weather the cold with everyone!
Yeah!
What do you think?
You think it's going to go well?
Well, it's embarrassing so I did the introduction roughly but she is not a bad person, is she?
Yeah. Actually that's what I got hung up about.
What did?
Since she is a good person and does chores perfectly
I'm remembering all of Mom's incompetence, so to say
That's a luxury
Her husband passed away because of an illness
She has been taking care of her kids and her husband's parents
So of course she can do chores.
One by one, please teach me like I'm an idiot.
I won't oppose.
You like her, don't you?
I do
Then go home! Don't drink in a place like this
Place like this!?
That's right
Let's go home together.
No way. What the. Gross.
Ah, right, Yuko apologized.
Yuko?
She said she's sorry.
What, what happened?
Ah tell her I'm sorry too
Eh, what what?
You don't need to know.
What is it? Tell me
It's no big deal
She dug up that fire.
That fire?
The chapel, you know
She said that fireworks lay at the scene
Seems like she interviewed and snooped around the police 3-4 years ago.
So I said don't ruin things. That's all.
What's that about
What, get off me
Why did you say such a thing to Yuko?
Answer me!
I don't know anything okay!
But, your mom...
Mom?
When she told you that there was a fire at Sanjo
you looked weird, she told me that.
Mom believed in you.
"That can't be it, right?"
"I'm thinking too much, right?"
Of course, I did too
So, when the police came...
The police?
Some days after the fire
While you were at the prep school or cram school
What could it be, is it going to be okay?
I just answered questions in place of you.
What did you answer?
I didn't lie. That's was it. The suspicion cleared up.
The police, why didn't you tell me?
What then if I tell you!?
Your son is suspected,
question, pressured to confess,
son who is still in high school publicly scorned,
made so that he can't walk with his face up, what good will that do!?
Heisuke, you're not a high school student anymore.
You are a teacher.
There are students who are looking forward to the cultural festival.
There are students who trust you.
Also, really think about Mom.
What you'll do, decide it yourself.
There's a fire at Sanjo.
The chapel is the origin of fire, it's pretty much completely burnt down.
The fire has spread to school building..
Mom believed in you
Your son is suspected
son who is still in high school publicly scorned, what good will that do!?
Hello, it's me.
Good evening.
I have something important to tell you
Next is still "Sorry Youth!" corner. We're short on time so let's get on to the call
Hello
Radio name Chief Priest
Kaba-san, I've always enjoyed listening to you.
Yes yes yes. Whom do you want to say "Sorry!" to?
First, sorry to my ancestors
Sorry to Buddha
Then sorry to the universe...
Please narrow it down to one person.
Stingy
Then, the late Mom.
Risa-chan?
About Mom, it's been quite a while
We knew each other when I was 25 and she was 21.
Radio?
I hit on her fiercely
It would be stalking now...
Eh?
I only remember the fun times.
Recently, what I especially remember is for some reason
what a fun person Miyuki-chan was.
Look, leggings
Pink is too gaudy
Mom
Broth pack in my miso soup again!
Ah, you hit! You hit!
Ippei, seconds?
No I'm fine
Peil? Ippei is peil?
Full is hara ippai. He's saying "is ippei hara ippei?"
Cold~
Thank you for the meal!
Heichan, lunch box.
You made one?
Nope!
Seriously!
Sorry, I watched a SUMMERS program until late and overslept.
SUMMERS: a comedy duo
Buy "Josei Seven" with Tohoshinki on the cover on your way home!
Josei Seven: weekly magazine Tohoshinki: Korean boy band
Instead of "See you later" "Buy Josei Seven"
I think my son was surprised too
Yes
Hara-sensei!
Please go home right now
Your mother suddenly fainted
Acute myocardial infarction
They told us she wouldn't regain consciousness.
They told us to say goodbye but
three men, right
It was somewhat hard to talk
And then, my second son...
Aniki let's go outside
Why!?
Just come on
Miyuki-chan
What the heck, so sudden
Are you okay with this?
I don't know what to say
Hm?
What?
It was amusing
"Ah, it was amusing"
That was her words at her last moment.
I don't know what she was talking about.
Could be about life.
Could be about our married life.
Could be about SUMMERS show the previous night.
But, if your wife of 30 years
said "Ah, it was amusing" and died,
isn't it the greatest?
I felt like I shouldn't cry
Right, Kaba-san?
I'm bawling though
Not "I was happy" or "It was fun"
but "amusing"
What more could you possibly wish for
Yes
We will present Chief Priest with
Sorry Eel specially-made sweater!
Well, I'm getting remarried though.
Haa!?
That's why I want to "Sorry!"
The total opposite of the late Mom,
a pretty someone who can do anything.
Please return the sweater
Well, if you think about mom
this could be even more amusing.
Oh okay
because I'm getting remarried I'm remembering Miyuki-chan.
Maybe, that's how it'll be too from now on
So Miyuki-chan
this me...
Sorry!
What a great husband
Would be a waste on me
I return him
Alright
With those words
Setsuko-san, from the inside of the house until every nook and cranny of the main hall,
she cleaned everything until they're sparkling,
and left Eirakuji.
Meanwhile, Heisuke
Hi
Which is it?
It's school, polite language?
Or as friends?
I cooked.
That stew with chicken wings.
You like it, right?
And several side dishes.
I will quit being a teacher after the cultural festival ends.
Eh?
So, this story
I planned on not saying anything to anyone until the festival ends safely.
Eh, wait wait
Lots don't make sense.
First, first
You can't quit being a teacher, no way.
Then...
I asked your sister out that night.
Let's do fireworks together, I said
Your sister did not come.
I waited several hours though.
I called Satoshi.
He's kind so he said "If I can, I'll go"
I waited, here, by myself.
Are you following until this point?
Yes
In the sky over there, fireworks rose.
Fireworks rose beyond that sky.
And then...
Yuko?
Your sister and Satoshi were there.
Are you following until this point?
Yes
Then I fired up all 20 rocket fireworks.
I fired up 20 handheld lit up fireworks in succession.
Then when I got home, my mom
said that there was a fire at Sanjo's chapel.
Are you...
No
Huh?
Hara-sensei is
the culprit
of that fire?
Yes.
I'm sorry.
Don't apologize!
Eh?
That my sister was suspected
was because she happened to be at the scene?
Just that?
Just because of that.
Just because of that right!
She was only watching the fireworks with a boy she liked, right!?
The culprit of the fire is Hara-sensei right!?
I am sorry
Don't apologize!
No, apologize!
Because of you
my sister
my father
by the way, I can't
Understanding this... my feelings absolutely can't keep up
Hachiya-sensei
Don't come!
An arsonist is a teacher, what do you think of that?
Why did you keep silent?
You thought it's fine as long you're not found out?
Why are you saying this now!?
Tomorrow is cultural festival! Here!
Yes
Don't "yes" me
You don't get it at all!
Because
Because, I
I told you I liked you, didn't I?
Yes
Even so, why?
Because like
What because like?
You thought you wouldn't get hated just because of this thing?
No!
I like you
I like Hachiya-sensei
I'm not lying!
I won't make excuses for the fire
I won't justify it.
Whatever you say, it is exactly that
That's why I imagined
myself losing everything after telling the truth.
One by one people important to me came to my mind.
I said sorry and goodbye.
At that time, the one who made me sad the most
was Hachiya-sensei.
Telling you goodbye
was the toughest.
That's why I called you.
Although I think this is too not something that should be said the day before the cultural festival
I will say it
Hachiya-sensei
I like you
I love you!
I don't know the reason yet.
I know
Because we are bound by fate
So, unlike men and women around
who get together and break up,
overcome that then get back together again, we don't have to do all that.
Even if you're a pussyfoot guy,
or Droopy Eyes, or Droopy Kappa,
or an arsonist
I'm not forgiving you though
Those are all trials
I'm not forgiving you now but
let's overcome this
On the Izuppako name
Izupakko?
Even if you are an arsonist
I believe in the heart-shaped strap legend.
Don't take Izuppako lightly!
Okay then
Oh
Please really eat the meal
Yes
And then at last, the joint cultural festival that
Heisuke, Tonkou students, and Sanjo students have dreamed started
Good morning
Sensei you're here now
Hei-chan hurry! We're gonna carry the mikoshi!
Hurry hurry!
Gomen ne Seishun! soundtrack CD
We will give out to 25 of you
Please mail to this address
We'll be waiting for your postcards!
Sorry Youth!
Youth, that is a valuable time rented by God
Be it a comedy, or a serious, or a horror, at some point a change must occur
Do your best
