By the way, my favorite bath powder is ''Noboribetsu Hot Spring,''
from Kumaya Penguin-do's Steam Series!
RADLO BOY
Miss Shoko! l got some Sapporo Garden pastrami sandwiches for you!
l don't have to make any excuses today!
Wait! Miss Shoko?
Next up is our Family Financial Advice segment.
What's up? You sure are scowling.
CHHEER UP RADIO BOY Oh, it's nothing. Good morning!

What's gotten into you, Miss Shoko?
Look! l got you one! A pastrami sandwich!
l'm sorry. l'm not hungry right now.
Hey, what's this?
''Noboribetsu Hot Spring?''
Shoko, is this yours?

Believe it or not, this really works!
You have reached a voice messaging service.
The person you are trying to reach is not available to take your call.
Please leave a message after the beep.
Hello? lt's me, Shoko.
l think someone's stalking me.
l'm scared...
Let's see, l got this one via email. Pen name ''Yamada Camera...''
''l'm really fat. The truth is, l'm five feet tall but l weigh 187 pounds.''
''l've tried all kinds of diets, but...''
Well, if you want to lose weight, you have to exercise and eat right.
Oh, and l've heard you should put plastic wrap around the parts you want to slim down too.
''Dear Shoko, Have you seen 'The Anxious Clown Homesickness ' yet?''
No, l haven't. l've been dying to see it though.
And that sake is out for a limited time only,
The Anxious Clown ''Homesickness'' Advance Ticket And that sake is out for a limited time only,
Yashaou And that sake is out for a limited time only,
Yashaou but l won't be able to go pick some up because l'll be working.
Yashaou
l really want that stuffed panda, but l'm terrible at any games so...
l've heard of that pillow. Supposedly, you can sleep like a baby with it!
Oranges! Oh, l love them too!
ToShoko
Although l also love watermelons!
But my most favorite thing is crab!
ToShoko F rom RADLO BOY
Well, this is it for today's show.
l'm Shoko Saibara, and thank you for listening!
Bye-bye!
l'm serious!
Mr. Uraoka, you're lying again!
Welcome!
Tezuka!
Over here!
Hi! Excuse me, can l get a draft beer?
Coming right up!
Sorry to keep you waiting.
We weren't waiting that long.
What? Are you telling me you weren't waiting for me?
l was waiting, Tezuka!
You're so sweet, Miss Shoko!
Here you go!
What Shoko was waiting for was beer!
What? ls that true, Miss Shoko?
Good work as usual, everyone!
Cheers!
Hey, wait! That's not cool!
Cheers!
Are you sure you don't want us to split the bill?
This is to say thank you for looking out for me all the time!
All right, thanks!
Well, maybe l should ask you to pitch in a little, Tezuka.
What?!
Something good must have happened to you.
You seem to be in a good mood lately.
What? You mean me?
Yup, you're always smiling.

''Miss Shoko, l need your advice as a relationship expert, please!''
Well, let me get straight to the point. l think he likes you!
Boys your age tend to say something completely opposite from what they're really feeling.
Like, if he likes you he'll say he hates you, you know?
Oh, we adults might do the same thing sometimes,
but you have nothing to worry about, Chibita!
l, Shoko the relationship expert, guarantee that!
Toyohira River
Mt. Yotei
On to the North...
Mt. Yotei
l didn't know you were here.
You were out late, huh?
Yeah, l went out for a drink after the recording.
Want a drink?
Sure...
Here!
Thanks.
Wow, it's cold!
Have you been drinking?
Just a little.
What's going on, anyway? This is out of the blue.
l thought you were really busy at work.
lt was you who left me a message saying someone's been stalking you, wasn't it?
Yeah...
So l got worried.
l borrowed this for you.
Supposedly, you can use it to detect listening devices and things.
A guy l know who's into this kind of stuff told me about it.
l already checked, but l didn't find anything.
Really?
Yeah, l searched this room from top to bottom.
Okay, then l guess that's good enough.
Good enough?
lt's like, it doesn't bother me so much anymore.
What do you mean by that?
Nothing.
l just thought, maybe he isn't so bad, you know?
Don't tell me you're...
Oh, come on. Of course not.
Then why did you say it doesn't bother you?
Why do you care so much?
You could be lying.
To get my attention.
You're too cocky, you know that?
l'm not lying. lt was just my imagination.
Are you sure?
Let's leave it at that.
Hey, the water's spilling! The carpet!
l'm sorry. l haven't had time for you in a long time.
Shoko...
l love you.
Of course l do.
l do.
On your birthday, l'll take you wherever you want to go, Natsuko.
Really?
Shoko...
Did you have a fight with your wife or something?
Why do you ask?
Because this is odd.
l came to see you because l wanted to see you.
What's odd about that?
What about how l feel?
What?
What about when l want to see you?
You just show up when you want to see me.
So is that the way it works?
Do l get to do it that way too?
You should have come when you wanted to see me.
When l wanted to talk to you, you told me not to call.
l leave messages on your phone but you never call me back!
l wanted to talk to you!
l wanted to see you!
But you knew that was the deal when you started seeing me!
You're right. l did know that.
But l always feel like l'm only talking to a phone, you know, just talking to a machine.
l feel like my voice will never reach you. lt tears me apart.
And l can't take it anymore!
Think about what you do for living.
lt's the same thing, isn't it?
You only talk into a microphone, don't you?
Get out...
l said, get out!
Summer is almost over, huh?
Not even close! lt's still hot as hell at night!
The seasons are changing without you even noticing, Mr. Uraoka.
Really? You sure about that?
All right, Shoko, are you ready?
Shoko?
Oh, yes!
All right then, let's go.
Okay!
What am l doing here anyway?
l just come to the studio and have meaningless conversations with the staff like l always do.
Read faxes and emails...
l can't even manage my own problems,
yet l give other people advice on their relationships as if l know better.
What am l doing?
Moving on to the next fax. This is from pen name ''Hibiscus.''
''There's something l want to talk to you about.''
''Well, actually the man l've been seeing has...''
''...a wife and kids.''
''l've started worrying lately''
''that maybe he doesn't really love me at all.''
''So tell me, Miss Shoko, you're the relationship expert. What do you think l should do?''
l'm not... ''So tell me, Miss Shoko, you're the relationship expert. What do you think l should do?''
l'm far from it.
''Okay, here's your advice from the relationship expert, Shoko Saibara!''
l'm not a relationship expert. ''Okay, here's your advice from the relationship expert, Shoko Saibara!''
l'm not a relationship expert.
Not at all!
Think about what you do for living.
lt's the same thing, isn't it?
You only talk into a microphone, don't you?
l can't do this anymore...
Music! Get us music!
Right!
l can't give other people advice on their relationships.
l can't talk anymore.
My voice will never reach anyone!
l can't... this anymore...
l'm sorry...
Check this out, everyone!
Hey, wait! You!
What?!
Username : what?! Username : Is she going to leave the industry for good?! Username : Is she getting married?! Username : Sure dropped a bombshell there !
What's wrong with her?
l have no idea!
Anyway, we've got to do something about it before the music ends!
Damn it! lt won't open!
Don't quit!
Don't tell me he's the one who...
The music is almost over!
Play another one.
After Miss Shoko made that comment?
People will think it's weird if we play two songs in a row!
But...
ls he in the booth?
But you can't go in there right now!
Can we set up the audio in a different booth?
We have to check which one is open first!
Not good! We don't have time for that!
The music is over!
The first time you called my name, it made me really happy.
Up until that moment, no one had ever bothered to call my name before.
l was always alone. lt was like l didn't even exist.
You're Radio Boy?
Yeah, you've always talked to me, just like that...
Radio Boy...
Because you talked to me, l wasn't alone anymore.
l found a reason to exist.
So why did you say you were quitting?
l'm in pain. l can't even manage my own problems.
So how can l give other people advice on their problems?
l'm just sitting here alone talking to a microphone.
Worrying that maybe my voice isn't really reaching anyone.
l'm here!
See, l'm here!
Can't you tell your voice has reached me?!
l'm always waiting for your voice! l love your voice!
So you can never quit!
Why don't you understand something as simple as that?!
Really? My voice is really...
Of course it's reaching.
HANG IN THERE! DON'T GIVE UP. WE'VE BEEN LISTENING TO YOU ALL ALONG. KEEP FIGHTING! Shoko!! Your show has to go on! DON'T qUIT!
DON'T QUIT!! Shoko, please don't quit. You may have some tough times but we're always here for you! Keep up the good work!
Check out the message board!
Username : Don ' t qui t! Username : Hang in there. Username : That' s right! I ' m here too! Username : Don ' t give up!
l'm starting the music!
Man, l'm amazed he managed to get in here.
Goodness! Huh?
Shoko, here.
He brought it here.
You were going to give it to Shoko, right?
Thank you.
But l'm over sunflowers now.
Summer is over now.
Miss Shoko, this is for you.
From Dried Mullet Roe Your voice reaches me too.
P.S. I'm happy now because I followed your advice.
This is the best response we've ever had for this show, isn't it?
This is all thanks to you. Thank you for everything.
But you can't just break in here anymore, okay?
Yes!
What do you look so happy for, huh?
We've got some questions to ask you in the office.
Miss Shoko, the music is almost over.
All right, let's wrap it up.
Well, it's almost time to say goodbye.
l'm sorry that things got a little crazy here today.
And l also want to thank you for all the faxes and emails.
l'm only sitting here talking to a microphone.
But l'm so grateful to know that there are so many people out there listening to my voice.
l'm pretty sure all kinds of people are listening.
Students, working people, men and women both.
We've never met each other,
but l'd like to be friends with all of you.
l know l'm going to run into all kinds of issues in the future,
but as long as you guys are here for me, l'm sure l'll be okay.
ls my voice reaching you?
lt's autumn now. Have a great weekend!
You've been listening to ''Cappuccino Break'' with Shoko Saibara.
