This was a good summer.
It was a really good summer.
Please don't make it sound like it's over.
Now, it's just you two.
It's almost time.
This is my ocean.
Your oceans are somewhere else.
Right?
Don't look like that.
I'm not telling you to get out right now.
It's just that this isn't a place you can stay at forever.
If you don't leave, you'll end up like me.
What do you mean?
Never mind. Good night.
Haruko?
Why did Mom say what she did?
About Mr. Masaru?
That she thinks there was something else he wanted to do.
Where are the guys?
Still outside, I think.
If they...
If they say they want to leave here...
I don't want you to stop them.
Grandpa?
Understand?
Makoto?
All right.
What?
Depressed?
Not at all.
What about you? You haven't said anything at all.
Really?
Yes, really.
I think it was a bigger shock to you than it was for me.
Why?
Because you were beginning to think that you might
stay here forever, right?
But he said he wasn't telling us to get out right now.
And besides...
I moved to a new schools all the time so I'm used to it.
But...
What the boss said to us...
That again?
I think the boss is right.
To be honest, I'd been waiting for him to say that to us.
This place is really comfortable and I really do think it'd
be the best if I could stay here forever.
But he's right. This place is his. Not ours.
I just thought the shock would be pretty big for you, that's all.
It's the same for me.
This is the 1st place I honestly felt like staying at forever.
I've never felt like this.
Then, being told it's almost time to leave...
It's a lonely feeling.

'Morning!
Was it your turn to make breakfast, Makoto?
This looks good.
Let's see.
This is good. Try it.
Sit and eat!
On a chair!
Okay, okay!
Good morning, Grandpa.
Telephone, Makoto!
You get it.
You're on the breakfast shift!
I'll get it.
Boss? A call from a place called the "Sunset 77."
It's me.
It's done? Thanks.
I'll come to get it after lunch.
Well?
What? Too dull?
No. As loud as it gets.
Don't tell me...
That's yours, boss?
Of course, it is. Who else?
I don't believe it.
Are you serious, boss?
Why do this now?
Because I felt like it.
That's all?
And you can't stop me.
Grandpa?
You can't stop me.
You're not a little kid.
Yes, I am.
They say you become a kid again when you get old.
I didn't mean that, stupid.
Sorry.
But Mr. Masaru..?
I'll be fine.
You have to think of your age.
What do you guys know about what I can and can't do
at my age?
Say something to him guys.
I want to do this.
What?
I say I can do this and that's the only expression you can have?
Well? Don't I look cool?
Is this the one you bought long ago?
Long ago?
A little while ago.
Just a little while ago.
Sure! It's ancient history.
Why are you looking like that?
Just watch me.
Grandpa!
Are you okay, Grandpa?
I'm fine! I'm fine!
Mr. Masaru...
Boss...
What'll we do?
I don't know what to say.
If it were me, I wouldn't want any 2-bit consoling.
You're right.
I'll bet he's bitter and mad.
You two don't pity me, do you?
I...
I wanted to surf. That's why I came here to live.
But before I knew it, I'd forgotten about the surfing.
And became just a guy running a minshuku inn.
That's what I turned into.
What's wrong with that?
You're still really cool, boss.
I'm the one that decides whether it's all right or not.
Am I wrong?
If you guys hadn't washed up here I might have forgotten
about it forever.
I owe it to you guys. And I'm glad.
It would've been too late if I'd remember when I was
too old to walk anymore, right?
I was about to become an old man that could only talk
about how good he used to be.
Thanks.
And sorry to have worried you today.
But today...
I was wrong.
The ocean isn't something a guy who hasn't practiced
in years can just jump into.
That's all.
What?
The boss...
He'll try again.
I thought he'd be more depressed about it.
But he wasn't at all.
Will he try it again?
Probably.
I think surfing is the most precious thing to the boss.
And even a man like the boss can forget about something
that precious to him.
But...
But the boss is trying to recapture it...
You're right.
I want to see the boss ride the waves again.
So I want to stay to see the boss make his comeback.
Since I was lucky enough to meet him here.
What about you, Kaito?
We've just started.
Him and me, both.
And after that?
What'll you do?
I'll think about that when the time comes.
Good morning.
What?
We're going to join you, boss.
Let's go.
'Morning Makoto.
We'll be out there so take care of breakfast.
How many kilos are we running? I'll time us.
Who cares?
Idiot!
Be quiet!
He can't even shut up when he's running.
What'd you say!
Shut up! And don't fight!
They don't have to run with him!
It's not my turn to cook breakfast today!
What a rotten old guy.
I'll see you later!
Good girl, Makoto.
Gimme that!
Hurry up!
Deep breaths!
Loosen the wrists!
Ready...
Set!
Go!
Boss...
I'm okay.
Sorry. I'm okay.
Lift those legs!
Be quiet!
Why don't you run, too?
No way! I don't want to stink of sweat.
Why you..!
Why are we running anyway?
Who cares! Brings back memories of my baseball days!
Everything is great!
Why'd you do that?
I need the extra nutrition.
Then I have to...
How mean!
Too late!
Can everyone see that?
He saves the best for last. I've heard of guys like him!
What're you talking about? I'm thinking of nutritional balance.
Boss!
Those guys...
What're they up to?
Training for field day?
I don't get those guys.
Come on, Grandpa!
Come on, boss!
Little more!
Hazuki?
What's wrong?
Want to join us?
Why not? You're doing well, right?
But...
I can't.
But Hazuki?
Look at the boss.
Watch the boss.
You're not the one in training.
That's right.
Thanks. I'll take this one.
That was the biggest one.
This brings back memories of when I was on the baseball team.
Captain!
It was your fault we didn't get to go to the nationals.
Captain!
What're you talking about?
You'd always lose in the first round anyway.
I was almost impressed.
Me, too!
Great boss!
You're 3 minutes faster.
I have to get to work.
Good work.
Thanks.
Make sure you stretch.
Doesn't the boss seem younger?
His face looks different, too.
Why're you goofing off? Hurry and gather up the wood.
Last sprint, boss.
Good job!
Makoto! I need a massage here.
I'm going to do it tomorrow.
I'll give it one more try.
Wow.
He really did it.
That was cool.
He really is a rotten old guy.
Cheers!
So I did it.
Is that all you can say?
How did it feel, boss?
It was the best.
Grandpa?
I won't tell you to stop but don't do it when the waves
are high or when it's dangerous.
Please.
Boss!
Shall we eat?
I'm back!
Any customers?
None at all.
Shall we leave?
Thanks.
Thanks for working out with Mr. Masaru.
No problem.
What? You're giving me the creeps.
The boss really did it.
What a great look he had on his face.
When he was on that wave.
He was really cool.
Will we be able to look like that, too, someday?
I sure would like to.
So let's. Or it'd be a bitter loss for us.
Our own ocean...
I guess we'd better go out to find our own soon.
Since we saw him accomplish his goal.
And we learned a lot from him.
All that's left...
Is like the boss said... It's our own.
Summer's over, isn't it?
Big waves at daybreak.
You're early, Makoto.
Where's Grandpa?
Isn't he here?
Look.
The board's gone.
Why does he always break his promises?
Boss!
Grandpa!
Look...
Grandpa...
Call the police and an ambulance, Makoto! Hurry!
Boss!
Makoto?
Grandpa's...
Boss!
Boss...
