Fumika...
You mustn't touch that.
It won't move.
That's because it's dead.
Dead?
That's right, dead.
Can you reset it?
It's not a game.

But why the divorce?
It seems there was cheating.
Which one?
Both of them!
You're kidding me!
And the person they cheated with was the younger brother in law!
I wouldn't have imagined her doing something like that.
No, no... It was the husband!
I don't believe it...
They say you can't judge people at a glance, but...
Seriously...
And then, you see...
What are you doing, Mister?
Mister? Oh, you mean me.
Aren't you going to talk with everyone?
I'm drawing a picture.
But you haven't drawn anything.
I wasn't sure what to draw, see...
The outside!
I see! So I shouldn't force myself to find something in here.
Takehiko...
Watch the house for me, okay?
You're going out?
Everyone is curious about that certain restaurant, so we're going to check it out.
Sorry about this, Takehiko.
It's okay...
Be a good girl, you hear?
I will!
Seriously! Ninjas come to take your order!
They left.
Will that be all for you today?
Are you okay with this?
Yeah!
Please take your time.
100% completion.
Yeah!
Mister, don't you need to go to work?
Huh?
Today's Monday, you know.
Oh, right.
I drew pictures for a company.
But they weren't the pictures I wanted to draw...
Basically, I screwed up in my job class.
Job? Why are you using game-words when you're a grown-up?
Because I like games.
Then I bet you're good at them!
Want to have a match?
Wow, you're awesome Mister.
I haven't played a shooting game in a while.
But I've still got it.
Mister, on the right!
If you take the red thing, you get an extra life!
Aww...
Mister?
See, I knew I was rusty.
Welcome.
Table for 4, please!
So, Mrs. Takehiko, your son works at a game company, right?
He quit suddenly last week.
Why's that?
He won't tell me.
My...
And he's over 30.
He hasn't gotten married yet, either. I'd be worried.
He's always just drawn and played games... I don't really understand him.
Oh, I see...
Look, there's a ninja!
What? Dragon Man has an incurable illness?
Incurable?
It means he won't get better.
Oh, no...
Dragon Man!
Cancer?
Yes. More precisely, appendecial cancer.
Um... It can be cured, right?
You can cure me, right?
Dragon Tornado!
Dragon Man!
What about your disease?
I beat it with my Dragon Power!
Dragon Tornado!
Watch where you're goin', buddy!
What? You got a problem?
You should be scared of kids these days.
That's what it says on the news, right?
Yeah, see, they're quick to pull out a knife.
They think everything's just some game.
Try me.
This ain't no place for pride, buddy!
Why, you...
You wanna go?
Mister!
Don't take us lightly, old man!
Man, I'm so weak...
About the level of an apprentice hero.
Stop it! Stop it, stop it!
What the hell am I doing? I'm over 30...
Hey, you!
Crap!
You won't get away!
Are you okay, little girl?
Yeah.
Oww...
Thanks, they were all over me...
Hey, do you realize what you've done?
Kidnapping a little girl like that!
What are you talking about? I was just...
You're under arrest!
Stop it! Please, don't!
Under suspicion of abducting a minor!
No! That's not what it is!
Stop it! He didn't do anything wrong!
Have you no shame, tricking a little girl like this?
Kamome Police Station
Takehiko Hibiya, how old are you?
32 years old.
Your job?
I don't have one.
Unemployed? You're not working at such an age?
Honestly... Another unemployed person.
If you want to be a proper adult, you have to work.
It's because the world doesn't accept you
that you have the free time to go abducting a child like this.
It's the child of a relative!
You think that excuse will work?
The intersection in district 4. Yes, the one in front of the fire station.
Take their statement by the end of today.
He's a thief, you know.
We don't have anyone who understands English...
Thank you very much.
I'll never forget this.
Miss, what's the matter?
You're a bad guy, aren't you?
She called you a bad guy!
You're bullying this lady here!
No, she's not. This is...
She delivered an important letter to me.
A deliveryman?
Yes.
I'm Fumika! Do you have any letters for me?
She's got the same name...
My name is Fumika too.
We're both Fumika!
I've never met someone with the same name as me.
Are you sure?
Takehiko Hibiya... And at your company...
Yes, there's no mistake.
Takehiko Hibiya is one of our employees.
Will you let me talk to him?
I've confirmed your story.
Don't do this kind of suspicious thing again, got it?
Mr. Ueno seems like he wants to talk with you.
Hello?
I'm sorry. I got you caught up in this...
Why did you quit?
You won't tell me?
We've been together since we started at the company.
I'm sorry.
What about the project you said we'd do together?
Are you saying to do it without you?
Sorry...
Quitting like this... You won't be let back in the company you know.
You sure about this?
Yeah... I don't plan on coming back.
I see. And I thought you were my friend.
Yuzawa General Hospital
Fumi, I met a girl with the same name today.
She was quite small.
Maybe a first-year in elementary school?
Yes, I'm sure that's about right.
Fumika, you're here.
I had a delivery.
You big liar.
You come here all the time even if you don't have a delivery.
Because I feel like she can hear me.
Yeah.
Don't worry. I'm sure that your voice reaches her.
I'm in the next town over.
Fumika said she wanted to see a movie.
If you're going to be late, then call me!
Going out to eat with Fumika - Takehiko If you're going to be late, then call me!
I called, but you weren't home.
Anyway, come home immediately.
Oh, and I was talking with Mrs. Misa.
She said she'd introduce this job to you.
It's at this credit union, and it'd only be contract work at first...
This is a good chance! It's not some silly thing making games, but a normal job!
What do you mean by "normal"?
I told your father you were taking a long vacation, see...
How could I tell him you were unemployed?
Even around the neighborhood...
I see. Appearances are important.
That's not what I'm trying to say.
That's exactly what you're saying. You've always hated that I'm an otaku.
You wish you had a more normal child, right?
One that joined a normal company,
got married like normal, made normal grandchildren...
Takehiko...
But, for me, it's already too...
Mister...
Let's go to that ninja place next time!
Ninja?
The one Mom and the others were talking about.
Can't. That's a place for drinking alcohol, see.
Grown-ups only? That's not fair.
You're jealous of grown-ups?
Yeah!
Being a grown-up isn't all that great.
What is it?
It won't work?
Nope. Looks like it's broken down.
And it doesn't look like any cars are coming, either.
Could you wait there?
I'll go get some help.
Stay right there and don't move. Okay?
I've lost everything.
My job... My friends... My parents...
Even luck.
What do I even care anymore?
I'll lose my life soon, too...
We'll go together!
With me?
Yeah!
You'll come with me?
I don't like being alone, see...
I see. You're right, it's sad being all alone.
Yeah!
Fumika...
Wait... I have to feed them.
Feed?
It's my game. "Forest Friends".
Do you know this one? There are animals living in it.
See that one? I get along best with him.
I see... That's one I drew...
I wanted to draw.
So I joined a game company and became a graphic artist.
What kind of drawing?
No, it wasn't like that.
I just wanted people to enjoy what I drew.
I...
I see!
It came true!
This isn't bad...
Maybe... like this... it's not so bad after all...
Hibiya Funeral Pavilion
Relatives
He protected a little girl?
He was a truly kind man.
But he had terminal cancer...
So, either way...
Mister, are you sleeping?
It's lunch time, you know. Everyone's looking at you.
Hey, Mister!
You're that girl from before.
A letter?
A Shigofumi.
Shi... go... What's that?
Thank you
A final miracle allowed to people.
I'm wondering...
Is he dead?
Yes.
I won't see him again?
Yes.
He's gone?
That's what it means to die.
I see.
Yes.
