Wind... it's not coming
Never mind we will just wait patiently
I'll just keep waiting...
Waiting on a world without Saku...
For the birth of Saku
I awoke in the morning and found myself in tears
Not because of sorrow
When I returned from the dream of 17 years ago
To the reality of 17 years later
There's an obstacle I cannot resist to cross
And I cannot cross it without sorrow
Mr. Matsumoto I have something on today
It's alright, just leave it here
Thank You
My bustling life actually gives me a sense of gratitude
Today, 2nd July
I do not wish to ponder on anything
Mr. Matsumoto
Mr. Matsumoto, Are you alright
Kazuki sit down here
You actually overloaded yourself
Like they say a doctor can't heal himself
Kobayashi, I'm sorry
You really should get a wife
Regarding the letters when I was hospitalized...
I have already talked to the administrator about it
Here these are the accumulated mails
The administrator wants me to pass you these
OK
Saku, what's this?
Kazuki, keep your hands off
This is...
It's ribs
Ribs?
Pork Ribs
This can be used to make ribs ramen
Saku, are you cooking ramen?
Saku really looks like Kentucky's Colonel
I've only seen Saku smiling
Mother too
Does he also cry and laugh like mother
He's very annoying, Kazuki
Matsumoto, how are you?
I wish to tell you that your campus will soon be demolished
Want to see it for one last time?
It's been 17 years since then
You still don't wish to recall it
The next letter is a postcard by a stage name,
Miss Juliet
I'm going to read it now...
We got into contact through tuning in to the broadcast station
Although I can't describe appropriately
but our worlds are totally different
We haven't met in 17 years now
He might be somewhere listening to my postcard's message now
Impossible...
This is impossible...
Alright, the topic today is unforgettable amour
It's still going on
I'm going on to the other postcards
This is from Ichiharashi City, in Chiba Agata
Five years ago on a certain sunny day Aki
The weather forecast reports that
it will start raining in the afternoon
Although I feel that a sunny day like this will not rain
But being a worry-wart I have brought along an umbrella
This is impossible
I've lived in a world without her
For 17 years...
"Crying out, in the center of the world"
There's tropical fishes
Really Look...
Saw it? Yes
Look...
There're blue tropical fishes over there
Yoshijima, I'm counting on you Can you not imitate me?
It's just so alike!
I'm now in the South
I welcome all who knows my location to come over
Wait, Are you in Japan?
Correct, It's Japan
All our classmates are getting 3000 yen
Others are others We are we
1000 yen is too unreasonable
Strange? Saku, why are you still at home?
Today's Sunday
Oh God
Since Mum knows, why don't you wake me earlier
Faster!
Saku, Bring along this umbrella
Don't underestimate the instincts of the riverbanks girls
The Murata Geisha Goodbye
Sutras
Hi It hurts
Saku, your button
Attentiveness as expectant of a monk
Stop calling me a monk
Uncle is reciting scriptures
He seems to be louder today
Where's Ryuunosuke?
You're not listening
It's so noisy
We'll now begin the sermons
We'll first invite the student leader of
the time when Mr Murata was still alive
Representative of the year 2 students,
Aki Hirose's speaking
Yes
Hirose is great, she's representing the students
Mr. Murata
When you were the Head of the Biology Faculty...
What are you doing? Looking for the bicycle keys
The birth of life
The meaning in planting
The structure of the food chain
Through the lessons in biology, we've understood the meaning in life
And learned that not a single thing on
this world is useless
I don't know what to say
I can't find the right words to express the feelings I now feel
Therefore I wish to present a poem to Teacher today
The feelings then cannot be expressed through words
It is only towards the voice of Hirose Aki that
My feet just walked towards her uncontrollably...
You asked me, why do we need winter?
I will answer you like this...
I will answer you like this
Winter is for the pregnancy of new life
Strange
Saku, do you like Hirose?
Why do you ask?
Of course it's because you held an umbrella for her
That's because my mum wanted me to do it...
Who asked you this
Akiraryou
Come and help quick Yes
What are you doing, come clean up quick
Yes!
Matsumoto
Why did you insist on finishing the sermon just now?.
Maybe it's because I don't like to surrender
Surrender to whom
Rain!
Hirose, What are you doing over there?
That's great
I wish to give you this
Give me your hand
Here
It's impossible to me to hold a real Sea Cockroach
Here
Ouch...
You've been making fun of me right from the start
No, It's Nothing
Thanks for your umbrella
I won't make fun of you anymore, here
Bye
It's stolen again
I knew It
Grandpa, don't ride away with the bicycle whenever you like
I've been waiting for you
Why you're so late?
Ryuunosuke
Right, Ryuunosuke!
Delicious, It's really delicious
Delicious?
This bottle of '78 Chateau Brierubon
This is the representation of Murdoch in France
Because it's very smooth to swallow, it's often easy to over consume
You'll be wobbling when you've realized
Women who don't like to drink will also fall in love with this
Really
Chateaut.. What Pronounce the name again
Saku, Still not ready
I'm back
Welcome back
Had your dinner?
I ate at Grandpa's place
Brother, You're listening to Music Wave?
This is the prize won from among the post card senders
The Music Wave is starting
Hello Everybody
The Topic today is
an astonishing coincident
I'll now read today's postcards
We'll first start with this one
This is from Mr. Fukuma Hayashi of Agatakawasaki City, Kanagawa
Good Evening
As there is a lady who looks very alike to my ex-girlfriend
We began dating recently
Good Morning
Morning
Where're the keys?
It's been hooked on with a keychain and you still don't know where it is
Hirose Did you send a postcard to this show?.
I wanted the Walkman
The last postcard to be read every time
gets selected
Are you tempted Mister?
You like Hirose?
What?
There was a heavy rain during the public service yesterday
Everyone, we're going to put up the
Romeo and Juliet play for our speech day
Cut the crap
I've already decided
Monitors, I'll hand the rest to you
With regards to this topic
Matsumoto, Nakagawa, Ooki
To your places
It's Hirose
To your places...
Stop looking, Pervert!
I wasn't looking at you, freak!
You guys, go back and study
Sorry
What?
Both of you are really interested in Hirose?
You.. You too?
Of course not
What happened?
Please
Lend me money
Wait, Ryuunosuke
Hirose's birthday is just round the corner
It's none of my business
She seems to yearn for a Walkman
I wouldn't have that kind of money
Ryuunosuke
Then you can help to write postcards
There's a show that gives away Walkman
Do it yourself
Didn't you get the award for the reading remising?
That was in primary school
I really like Hirose a lot
You know that my family is involved in temples
I will be sent to the monastery as soon as I graduate
High School is my last chance
So, if I miss this chance
I'll have to marry the one that my father chooses
This is the most important request of my life
There are also many touching postcards
from everyone tonight
I'm really happy
It's finally time for prize winner's letter to be read
This is the 52nd postcard Congratulations to you
The last audience of our show to be read..
What happened?
Is going to receive a Walkman All you audiences out there...
Matsumoto
I really like Hirose a lot Then you write the postcard
This is the biggest request of my life
The topic next time is..
I can't say it
An unbearably sad encounter
We'll be waiting for all your entries
An unbearably sad encounter
Unbearably what?
Boss, there's no octopus in here
How did that happen?
Everyone calls him the Octopus Youngster
The last strand of hair
Everyone calls him the Octopus Youngster
The youth turned delinquent because there
wasn't any octopus in the octopus kebab
Which later became a successful proprietor
of an octopus shop's renewed life story
Where's the last strand of hair?
A kind hearted youngster who for the sake of men who frets over hair loss
Uses magical arts to grow them hair while they are asleep...
You, Yes you!
This is not going to work
Hirose just smiled at me
Now apart from Romeo and Juliet
All the other actors have been selected
No one wants to do it
Saku, is the postcard ready?
Sorry
Her birthday is just round the corner
The two of you are quite close
Then you two will take the roles
I repeat again
I
I think Juliet should be played by someone who likes to show off
For example someone who read the touching sermon in the heavy rain
Oh no...
Don't you have to go for society activities today?
Anyway it's raining
If you don't want the role, it's better to make it known
Juliet
You've seen through it
You smile is different from usual
I'm not very good at arguing with others
Until here is fine
My house is just over there
But, the umbrella...
It's alright, take the umbrella
Bye...
Matsumoto
Can I call you Saku?
Bye Saku
Aki, Where's your umbrella?
In school, I forgot to take it
Liar
Your voice just now was very loud
Be careful, Don't give yourself away
Welcome back
Had dinner yet?
It's so tiring taking care of those idiots
The counter part's level is too low
It's so tiring having to serve customers all the time
How's Aki's condition recently?
What condition?
Is there any other thing?
The term end exam is fast approaching
No problem
What about the society? You still participating?
No problem I'll resign after the 2nd year end
Serious?
I'll only need to put in more effort for now...
You can relax a bit later on, right?
I understand Father's meaning
That's good
High air pressure from the North...
Saku, You're great
Thanks... really appreciate it
I'm leaving
Can post it yourself?
Good morning Saku
Here, thank you
Did you tune in to Music Wave yesterday?
Good Morning, You look very cute too today
Let's go
Good morning, Hirose
That..
Your birthday is just round the corner right?
It is a love story of 2 men who fell for
a girl named Fujitsubo at the same time
The topic for today is about love triangle
Yuan's dancers are dancing the waves...
Attn: A Duet
We'll continue from where you stopped the last time
Today's 30th, so let invite number 30, Suzuki
Yes Can you try and translate
Yuan's dancers are dancing the wave...
Where are you going Mister?
As long as it's with you I'm willing to go even to hell
An unbearably sad encounter
We're now going to read the last postcard for today
This is sent by a stage name 2nd year class D's Romeo
Alright, This is great...
Today I'm writing about something that happened in my own class
about a classmate named AH
This girl is our class' monitress
She continued on smilingly playing the role of Juliet which no on wants
But actually she too like to play pranks
She's a really charismatic girl
But she's always taking leave recently
It's because she's contacted leukemia
The last time I visited, I was shocked
Her hair, due to the effects of the medical treatment
Has all fallen off
The shadow of her past...
Saku, did you tune in yesterday?
It's all Master Saku Tarou's credit
What's wrong with you?
Hirose...
Hirose, I wish to tell you...
Matsumoto, I've something to tell you
Wait a minute
2nd year Class D's Romeo, It's you right?
No
Someone who understands me so well, there's no one other then you
It's your freedom how you want to portray me
But there really is someone battling with critical illness
How would they feel if they hear this?
They'll feel that it's a true story There's nothing wrong with that
Don't you feel bad about it?
I don't know what you're mad about?
Then..
If the patient is your mother
If someone came up with this kind of lie, would you forgive him?
If the patient is your sister or someone you like?
It's none of your concern
You are not my mother or sister
True too
Monk...
Sorry, It's been disclosed
Wait a minute
You are involved in this
Why didn't you say so?
Listen to me... You're deliberately making fun of me
This is youth
Grandpa experienced this before as well
To lose someone you like
Why does it hurt so deeply?
Because of affection
True too
Monk...
Listen to me...
I did not lose to you
It's just that Hirose has no taste
Those kind of tasteless women suits you best
I want to marry a girl, a hundred times better than Hirose
I will then really show off in front of you
Did you get it?
I'm Sakutarou Matsumoto
I'm very sorry about the other time
However I still wish to explain myself
That to me is actually a most depressing incident
If I lose you
It is the most painful thing to experience...
If you are willing to forgive me
After school today...
Please come to that place
Saku
Hirose
Idiot
You said that place, god knows where that place is
Sorry
I..
I'm returning this to you
Why?
Don't ask
No, but...
Listen first
I am Hirose Aki
Today I'm going to talk about something
I like
The fifth is
At the front of the Octopus Kebap shop
Sakutarou Matsumoto who was gingerly writing a postcard
The fourth is
Sakutarou Matsumoto who fell for the chewing gum prank
The Third is
Sakutarou Matsumoto who always loses his keys
The second is
Sakutarou Matsumoto who didn't want me to play the role of Juliet
Your smile is different from usual
That..
The First is
Sakutarou Matsumoto who held umbrella for me that day
I like you Saku
I like you best
Thank you
Aki said that was the most blissful day of her life
This is also the first time anyone said this to me
And this time...
is also Aki's last birthday
02-07-1987
But from now on, I...
Must continue to live on like this
I..
I feel the need to forget her
Year 1987, I couldn't save the only person I love
Year 1991, Japan's Marrow Bank was established
