The retirement ceremony was at a hotel right?
-Could it be... -Have you lost your mind?!
Haruko-san!
Pull in happiness!
Don't let that happiness go!
Definitely don't let it go.
Okay, good job!
-Haruko-san! -Ah! Erm...
Could I have a little time.
Once I have my thoughts in order,
I feel like I'll be able to give you a proper response.
For your next date, have her come over.
-What? -Call her over before you start going out,
and do what you can.
If she comes over, what will you do?
-I won't get in your way at all. -I totally don't believe you at all.
If you get into trouble, ring the bell
and I'll come running.
-Yes! Medium luck. -What?
It's the Yotsuya Mitsue fragrance fortune.
You're still talking about that.
Yep, this left over scent is perhaps from 2 trips before...
So, did you treat Midori-chan to foie gras?
Why are you dampening my mood first thing.
My medium luck will come to nothing.
-Hey, hey. -You're not being honest with yourself.
You're wearing dark red socks again today.
What?
Did anything happen on the day of the retirement ceremony?
No, nothing in particular really.
But asking him to wait, means you're going to say okay aren't you?
Why does it have to mean that?
Well I've never heard of anyone being asked to wait and then turned down.
That's just because you don't happen to have anyone like that around you.
So you're going to turn him down?
That's what I'm worrying about. After all, if I think about it,
we don't really know each other at all.
You can find that out once you start dating.
Don't make it sound so simple.
You're a genius at making simple things difficult.
And you're a genius at over-simplifying complex problems.
Hmm, it doesn't feel bad to be called a genius.
So the woman who declared recently she'd protect her virtue
went home first thing in the morning?
Ah well, that's because I had a bit too much to drink.
I'm jealous, life seems so much fun for you.
My mother says that too.
When are you taking me out for foie gras?
-I'm worried about you Midori-chan. -What?
If you eat foie gras using another person's money
will you ever be able to take a step down the road called life?
-Don't try to wriggle out of it!
Good morning.
Hey, listen, I got 'medium luck' this morning.
-I got 'terrible luck' -'Terrible luck?'
You can get that kind of luck?
-Masaki. -Yes.
Do you have time... this evening?
Yes.
About this morning. I'd gone out on my morning run,
when I got the sense I could smell a certain fragrance
in the morning air.
When I arrived at where the scent took me,
I happened across Yotsuya Mitsue leaving a high class apartment block.
Your sense of smell's like a police dog.
I felt like it was destiny, I was about to approach her when
a man appeared behind her.
What's more, it was someone I'd seen before.
-Makoto! You bastard! -No no no, of course it wasn't me!
It was the man you were staring at the other day as if you wanted to kill him.
The guy surrounded by beauties, looking down on us?
Sadaoka-kun?
If you won't do it, then I think I will.
Don't be an idiot.
You can't be certain what happened between them.
Coming out together at 6:45 on a weekday morning!
Is that ever nothing!
Perhaps they just happen to live in the same building?
She said to him, bashfully 'Thank you for having me,'
Your hearing's as good a police dog too.
To make matters worse, earlier I was contacted earlier by a good customer
saying they were canceling their contract.
That really is 'terrible luck'!
You know the saying 'it never rains but it pours' certainly seems to be true.
Anyway, for today let's drink till we drop,
and forget about that woman completely.
-Right Makoto. -Sure.
We'll stay with you right to the end.
You said number 205.
-Where is it! -Ah, here it is!
-Here, here! -Yay!
-Hurry up and open the door. -You really want to come in?
We've come all this way, is there really the choice not too?
You said you just wanted to see from the outside.
Of course we weren't going to just go home!
It dangerous to leave me alone in this state.
If you can still say that, I think you're probably fine.
-Hurry up and open the door!
Okay, okay. Just wait a moment.
It's possible my friend might have come over.
Your friend?
I'm home.
-Quickly, get in there! -Hey! Hang on!
-Ah, this is amazing. -Thank you.
Who'd've thought you'd have such a stylish place.
So who is this friend who might've come to see you?
Eh? Ah, no-one you know.
-Don't tell me... a woman!? -Of course not!
-What are you doing! Enough! -Don't be so uptight!
That bottle cost 14,800 yen!
He must have spilled about 6000 yen's worth.
Masaki, you don't understand how depressed I am.
I do understand. I understand but...
A man past 40, going out with his 10 years junior co-workers
then going to their home. Do you understand how wretched that is?
The fact I can't help but do it
is really hurtful.
Tomorrow's a day off, so let's stay over and go home in the morning.
Very sensible.
-That's a problem for me. -Why's that?
I haven't prepared a futon for guests.
They didn't have futon's in the olden days.
they'd just sleep where ever, so don't mind us.
-You're really going to stay over? -Hey, show him that thing!
2 years ago, the two of us were on telly!
Really, that's amazing.
It's a shame Japan lost the match isn't it.
Yes, but they fought hard.
Please go home feeling proud!
-I was alright but wasn't Makoto amazing. -Wow.
We just happened to be in Tokyo on a training course.
-Wow. -What? No way!
Haruko-san?
Who's this Haruko-san?
Do you know that girl who's always with Yotsuya-san?
-Ah, the somewhat unhappy looking one. -Correct!
-Not correct! -But anyway,
it's miraculous enough on it's own, that we got filmed despite living in Shizuoka at the time.
She just happened to get filmed too!
That kind of thing seems to happen a lot.
Could it be the woman herself?
-No, of course not. -Well then, who?
Maybe... a sales person.
At this time?
Anyway, hurry up and get it.
It's fine.
Maybe it's that friend you were talking about earlier.
Erm... somehow I don't think so.
-You're being weird... Let's go get it! -Okay then!
I get it! I'll go see myself.
Sorry for the late hour.
-A delivery for you. -Thank you.
-It's heavy. -Okay...
'a r r o w'
-Hey. -Yes?
-Can I ask you something strange? -What?
What was the decider for you with dad?
What?
Hmmm.
-There wasn't one in particular. -Despite that you were able to decide on him.
Everyone's like that.
On the contrary, perhaps because there's not one thing in particular, that you can get married.
I don't think that can be right though.
Ah...
But, I guess I thought that, if it's him,
then no matter what bad things might happen
we'd get through it with a smile.
Back when I was still single, there was a leak in my apartment roof.
Even though there was a constant dripping,
your dad said with a smile on his face,
'Isn't this romantic.'
All through the night you could hear the sound of the water dripping into the bucket.
Really, is that so.
Finally your dad said that the noise made
by this small cup, was the most elegant.
So went to listen to it
and woke to a floor soaked with water.
He's always been an odd one.
-It's delicious. -Thank you very much.
I'd just run out of rice, so it's good timing
some arrived from my folks yesterday.
When did Katsuragi go home?
He said he had a date tomorrow and took the last train home.
I think that's probably a lie.
-Really. -Yes.
-May I? -Go ahead.
I'll wash this and return it to you.
No it's fine, I'll sort it in my washing.
Are you sure? I'm sorry for being a pain last night.
It's fine, please come again.
I never thought you'd say that.
Don't be silly, come again, whenever.
Well then, I'll come again really soon.
It would be my pleasure. I'll be waiting.
Take care. Excuse me.
-Finally he's gone! -Wah, you scared me.
Aren't you overreacting. Actually it's kind of embarrassing.
It's because I thought you only came out at night.
Who invited that old man over here?
It's not that I invited him, he just came on his own accord.
You heard didn't you. Sadaoka-kun's successfully managed
to get his next target over to his home.
He really does turn things over quickly.
Even though you received this great hint from the future,
why haven't you put it into practice.
Aim to rule the roost!
Tn: I think this phrase carries the idea of a strong seeming husband but who does what his wife tells him.
-What hint? -What you are overwhelmingly lacking in is
a manliness that will draw her firmly to you.
And so, if you aim to 'rule the roost' you'll easily be able to get her over here.
Eh, what! What do you mean by 'rule the roost?'
What does a husband who rules the roost ask for from his wife.
Remember.
Food, bath, sleep, cash. What do they have in common?
-Ah! They all have one syllable. -That's right.
So therefore 'A husband who rules the roost' is one who talks in one syllable words.
How on earth can I invite her over only using one syllable words.
'Come!' 'What?' 'Home!'
You made her say 'what' didn't you.
And so until Haruko says the word,
you mustn't use words with more than one syllable.
-That's what the rule is this time. -Yep, it's impossible.
You see, rather than some long winded, circuitous wording,
short and to the point statements move a woman's heart.
That may be so but, one syllable is impossible!
You can't have a conversation.
Well then, how many syllables would you like? 2?
-Or maybe 2 and a half? -What's 2 and a half?
Okay then 3. It's decided, when you talk to Haruko
you'll keep to three syllables. -It's easily said but do you understand,
when the time comes to part,
I won't be able to say 'sa yo na ra.'
'bye bye' 'good bye' 'see ya', 'laters'
There's loads of things you can say.
Do you think she'd go out with someone who said 'laters?'
And so what I'm saying is,
choose some good words to use with her.
Nope, no matter how you look at it, it's impossible.
If you want her to say 'okay' to you then
you mustn't make a single slip up.
-If I do? -It's 'good bye for ever.'
Otherwise known as 'laters for good.'
You're really into that 'laters' nonsense.
Laters! Laters! Laters? Laters...
What? It could catch on!
-I have some unusual pets at home you see. -Unusual?
An iguana and an armadillo.
Even though they're unusual they don't seem unpleasant at all.
And so Mitsue-san said she'd like to see them
so I asked her if she'd like to come over.
Even so, that wouldn't normally mean she'd stay over?
Ah, yes I feel a bit bad about that.
We were talking and drinking and then halfway through she fell asleep.
I thought about waking her up but
so looked like she was sleeping so happily
I couldn't bring myself to wake her. -So nothing happened?
Of course. Nothing happened.
I may get over things quickly but I don't put the moves on fast.
-But you're not exactly slow either. -Haruko's her best friend isn't she?!
She's not someone I can treat casually.
I see.
Unusual pets...
Do you have any at home?
'Good bye for ever'
No I don't! Of course I don't.
Welcome, are you with the two of them?
Goodness!
Would you like to drink with us?
-Right. -Yes, it's up to you.
-It's fine right? -Sure, either way.
Why are the two of you drinking together?
-Isn't that unusual? -Not really recently.
Sadaoka-kun's been helping me out recently so
today's to say thank you. -Helping you out?
It's decided. Keep your syllables to 3 when talking to Haruko.
If you want her to say 'okay'
then don't slip up, even the once.
-Muscle train. -Ah...
I gave him some advice about how to train.
I used to be a trainer at a gym.
That's right isn't it!
If you know that much, maybe I should get you to teach me too.
He's a really good teacher. It's good fun, I highly recommend it.
Why did you want to do muscle training?
-No reason. -Pardon?
You wanted to focus on training your arm muscles right.
There was someone I just had to beat at arm wrestling.
Really, so did you win? Ah... I lost.
But in such a short time, I got a lot stronger.
And it's all down to Sadaoka-kun.
-Shall we have some more to eat? -What would you like?
Today's recommended dish is Skipjack tuna apparently.
Seared or as sashimi, which ever you prefer.
-Haruko, which would you like? -Erm, both sound good...
-Masaki-san which would you like? -What!
Seared.
-Well then one seared please. -Okay.
Also potato stew and some sliced tofu.
Okay.
-Shall the two of us pay? -No, it will be my treat.
After all I invited you out to say thanks.
Very well then, I'll take you at your word.
-Thanks for everything.
Ah, wait, I'll pay too.
-Let me. -No but...
Treat.
I'll go get my wallet.
-No worries. -Pardon?
No worries.
Has something happened between you and Masaki-kun?
Pardon? Erm... nothing.
He seemed even more awkward around you than usual.
It seemed liked he only wanted to say the absolute minimum.
Could he be angry with me?
Maybe so.
Maybe it's a sign he won't wait forever.
If you just take the plunge you'll feel better.
What's holding you back isn't your ex-boyfriend,
it's you yourself.
I know that, but...
Well then, you have your answer don't you.
It's impossible, I can't do it anymore!
It's absolutely impossible.
I think it went well, you showed your manly side.
It's the first time in my life I've ever said 'no worries.'
I thought you'd follow it up with something different,
but you came out with it not just once but twice,
I thought you must be fond of the term.
Because of you, she must think I'm a complete weirdo.
Okay then, we'll call it off for a bit.
That very reasonable.
But in it's place you have to embark on a different 'ruling the roost' mission.
Good grief... Give me a break.
Well then, shall we continue with 3 syllables or shall we try something new?
Obviously I'll try something new.
Carve a 'King' shogi piece.
-What? -Haven't you heard of it?
It's the shogi piece with the character for 'king' carved in black.
No, I do know. There are too many places to carve,
I wouldn't know where to begin, it's confusing.
In Japan, if you're aiming to 'rule the roost'
if you haven't got a carved 'King' shogi piece, you'll take a dive.
It's an indispensable item.
I concede your point and I'd understand if it was going and buying one.
But why do I have to carve it?
There's the old song called 'King' by Hideo Murata isn't there.
-I don't know it. -In the lyrics
there's a line 'My wife Haruko.'
'Haruko' and 'Haruko,' see it's destiny.
That's got absolutely nothing to do with carving a 'king' shogi piece.
If you're going to put her heart into checkmate then of course it has to be hand made.
Yes, you're not funny in the slightest.
Sadaoka-kun gave you secret strategy instructions didn't he?!
'I've an unusual ornament at home, why don't you come see it'
No no no, it wasn't an ornament, it was a pet!
Well then, you can tell her about me.
What?
Why don't you say you have a king at home and also a god.
-Go and tell her. -I can't tell her that!
Anyway, it doesn't matter how you do it,
just get her here.
Then you can leave the rest to me.
That's what I have the least faith in.
I really think you've done your best up to now.
So now it's about time
I help you out a bit. Let's call it a present.
If a 'King' and a 'God' are aligned in your home
there's no miracle that can't be accomplished.
I really don't think that at all.
Those who believe will be saved, right?! Righty right.
Hey, isn't the new one bigger?
No, they're the same.
No way, you can see they're different.
Somehow the new one feels smaller, doesn't it.
-Measure it properly one more time. -No matter how many times I measure it, it will be the same.
Maybe Haruko's found herself someone nice.
-Why? -She asked me,
what was it that made me decide to marry you.
-My face right? -I said that to be honest, nothing really.
What do you mean. It was my face right?!
I hope Haruko finds herself someone nice this time.
Is she still being dragged down by the last one.
Maybe so.
-The new one is 3mm bigger. -See!
-I've something important to say to you. -What?
-I'm married. -What?
-You're kidding right? -I'm sorry.
I didn't mean to deceive you.
I'm sorry.
Everyone please listen. As of today
I have commissioned Swallow Marketing next door to do some market research for us.
From now on both of our companies will be building a close relationship.
It seems Hatazaki-san is doing it cheaply for us.
And so we've decided to have another attempt at
an industry exchange meeting.
Are you saying that this time there will definitely be
some women attending other than Hatazaki-san?
For you, I have obtained a firm assurance that everyone will attend.
Yay! Right!
This is huge. Really huge.
Hey, could it be...
he took you out for foie gras?
You can tell?
Your face is exuding happiness.
Kazuo-san, deliberately went dark red hunting,
and wore a dark red jacket for me.
He wasn't mistaken for a influential manga artist?
He promised we'd go for truffles next time.
If you have caviar lastly, it will be complete.
-It's thanks to you. -No no, I've not done anything.
-This is it Sekihara-san! -I'm not going.
Please don't be so cold.
According to Makoto, there's nothing going on
between the two of them, so Yotsuya's in the clear.
Is that for absolutely certain?
Let's go and make certain! Let's go!
Also, I have another small request to make.
On that day Japan's playing a soccer match.
Please promise me you won't tell me how it's going or what the result is.
Okay.
If anything's unclear or troubling you please don't hesitate to contact me.
I will respond promptly.
Thank you very much.
Good day.
Welcome.
I was wondering if I could ask you about a shogi 'king' piece.
They are over there.
If I wanted to make one myself, what should I do?
-You want to do it yourself? -Yes.
-I wanted to take up the challenge. -Well if you don't mind that it's old,
I have a piece of wood manufactured in the shape of a piece.
So you would let me have it?
It's made of good wood so it will cost quite a bit, is that okay?
Yes.
That's good, now you're beginning to look like husband who can rule the roost.
Would you mind not talking to me, it's distracting.
A husband who rules the roost would say, 'Don't talk to me!'
But if we want to keep it to under 3 syllables, then there's always 'Shut up!'
-But for you that's too soon. -Shut up! You're really annoying!
Okay, okay. You concentrate I won't say anymore.
My wife Koharu without complaint
puts on a smile that's so sweet.
I'm upping the tempo!
One, two, three, four.
My wife Koharu without complaint
puts on a smile that's so sweet.
Yeah!
Shit!
Well then, without further ado here's to our new business relationship.
Cheers!
-Cheers
Because we were eating tonight, I only had a light lunch.
Did you go to Shoumon An for lunch?
Goodness, how do you know?
I was also there, I thought I caught a glimpse of you,
but as I was sitting furthest in, I missed my chance to say hello.
Is that so, well, I said I ate lightly but,
you must have seen me slurping my noodles with duck.
-How embarrassing! -What a coincidence! I had noodles
with duck for lunch too. -Really?!
Eating the same dish, at the same restaurant,
it's quite surprising isn't it.
Indeed.
Sekihara-san, would you like some more beer?
Erm... yes.
I don't particularly like it myself but I do like the sight
of a man drinking beer.
Today the beer seems quite delicious.
Sekihara-san, please don't force yourself.
-I'm not. -Are you not particularly good with alcohol?
No, It's fine it's just he has gout.
Ah, then maybe something else would be better.
I've been running every morning, so I'm in pretty good form right now.
I've decided that today I will just drink bottled beer.
-Okay then, have another. -Thank you.
-Here you go. -Thanks.
It's 'all you can drink' so everyone, drink up!
If you want to order something, our Midori-chan will sort it out.
-Kazuo-san, three beers please. -Yes okay, I'll be taking the orders.
Isn't it tough being the only girl in your company?
Everyone is kind, but I'm always alone at lunch.
You make your own lunch don't you.
You should come over to our office and eat with us.
What! We can come over and eat with you?!!
-I was talking to Midori-chan. -Kohata-san knows
so much about restaurants he could write a book about gourmet food.
-Really! -I write this blog.
-A blog? -Please take a look if you get the time.
-You got them out quick didn't you. -Please take one.
I've been following your blog for ages.
Isn't this
destiny?! -Oh stop it.
We even have the same hair stylist don't we.
Out of interest, what about shampoo and rinsing?
Is everyone married?
No, only me and the boss.
Goodness! How cute, is she your niece?
-Erm... she's my daughter. -Pardon?
Hatazaki-san, your first name is Sumire too isn't it?
-It's my daugher's name too. -You have a family?
Yes, a wife and child.
I see.
Sekihara-san, you're single?
Yes.
If you get married you'll make a great dad.
That's right!? I think that too.
When it comes to a marriage partner it's important that it's someone
you can imagine the future with. -That's right, and so
inevitably it might end up being someone different
from your dealings in love up to that point. -Yes.
-Haruko, I'm sorry. -Why?
I might start going out with Sadaoka-kun.
What?!
That's great. A shot of tequila please!
I don't think that's on the 'all you can drink' menu.
Okay then, water please! Splash cold water on me.
-Get me a bucket...! -Sekihara-san, please calm down.
So has Sadaoka-kun talked to you about it?
We've not really confirmed it with each other,
but the way things are going I think we will. -I'm so happy it's going well for you.
And you two are living together too right?!
-Pardon?! -What are you talking about?
You can't fool me. The other day I stayed over
at his place. -You're living with someone?
No no, of course I'm not! It's a misunderstanding.
Ah, she's not your main girl then?
Please could you stop saying misleading things like that.
So why did you react to strongly when the doorbell rang?
And that tofu bag in the kitchen, that's clearly a woman's thing.
Ah, not that's... it's something a friend left there.
-You have another woman? -Of course I don't, there's no way.
-It's a man... a male friend of mine. -I wonder about that...
Haruko-san, this is a misunderstanding. Haruko-san?
It's a bit early, but shall we call it a day?
But there's lots more dishes to come?
Well then, those who wish to remain please do so.
What? Are you going home already?
You should hurry up and head on home too.
Japan's losing 2 - 0 you know.
Why did you tell me that?
Haruko-san, please wait.
-Won't you listen to me? -I don't want to hear it.
There's no way I'd be living with someone is there!
Why are you chasing after me when you have someone else.
I'm telling you, it really is a misunderstanding. Please believe me.
That's enough.
Will you come back to my house with me now.
-I don't want to. -Please!
Unless you come now, it's meaningless.
What do you mean?
No matter what, I want to clear up this misunderstanding.
In order to do so, you have to see it now in it's natural state,
when I can't tidy anything up.
Even if I look and don't find anything
I don't think that will prove you're innocent.
-Even so, that's fine. I just want you to come
and take a look with your own eyes.
If you're worried, please have your phone
at the ready to call the police.
that's no problem at all, so please.
Please come in.
Ah... welcome.
If you find something you're curious about or there's somewhere you want to check
please don't hesitate to ask.
Ah... excuse me.
This is the tofu bag that was mentioned earlier.
My friend gave it to me, so there's nothing to be guilty about.
What is that?
Ah... that's...
A shogi king piece.
Please think about it. If I was living with someone,
do you think I'd be allowed to carve something like this?
I don't know about that...
If there was a woman, coming and going,
this would be unthinkable wouldn't it.
In the first place, if you wanted a woman to be interested,
this isn't something you'd think of doing.
So why are you carving it?
'Aim to rule the roost.'
So, do you think that in the future
you'll have that in your home? -That's, erm... of course...
that would be decided after discussing it.
If you don't like it, then I've no problem with throwing it away right now.
I'm sorry. I'll get out the vacuum cleaner straightaway.
What?
Have you seen something?
What about that blue T-shirt?
This?
It's my T-shirt.
I bought it two years ago at a clothes shop
opposite the sports bar in Shibuya. Just before Japan were playing a soccer match.
Two years ago... At the end of January...
So it really was you?
I was watching a news recording earlier and I thought there was someone who looked like you.
I thought it couldn't possibly be...
Firstly I'd really like the players to improve,
at any rate, I want them to want to win.
They definitely can't lose their next match.
Look!
So...
It was you wasn't it.
Pardon?
On the worst day of my life,
you said something irresponsible to me.
I'm sorry.
I really don't remember it at all though.
That day, I was dumped by the man I thought I was going to marry.
-What? -Furthermore, he had a wife.
My world just crumbled right before my eyes.
I thought that, in just a moment, my future vanished.
I thought he was going to propose to me that day.
To begin with...
when he said 'I'm married'
I simply thought he was nervous
and said the wrong words to me.
It was a real shock.
Why didn't I see it...
Why did he go out with me even though
he was married...
I thought I was able to say
that he's the one destined for me.
Why...
Why did I think that someone
who could hurt me like that, was my life partner?
Why...
When I came to my senses,
I was sitting outside a closed department store.
Hey please don't cry!
It's mortifying but let's move forward with pride.
To begin with
I didn't think those words were aimed at me.
-Come on, let's go. -Nope, you know, today,
we lost because I wasn't cheering them on hard enough
but next time we'll win!
No, I'll make them win!
Next time, let's definitely win okay!
I'm sorry miss. Come on, let's go.
-Japan! -It's over you know.
Japan!
Did you mistake me for a soccer fan
because I was wearing a blue coat?
I was really cross, why did I have to be
treated so badly on that day of all days.
It was...
I'm really truly very sorry.
But how did you know it was me from just the T-shirt?
Do you know what those words mean?
No...
'It never rains but it pours,' As a Japanese proverb it would be
something like, 'When you're crying, a bee stings you in the face'
That's what it means.
When I saw that,
I thought that really is me today, it was truly strange.
Am I crying because I'm sad, or because it's strange.
I no longer knew.
I made it my new email address.
What?
Even after we parted, he kept contacting me,
so I changed my email address. It's a bit masochistic.
Can I win?
Pardon?
My next match... Can I win?
You'll win.
Really?
Of course.
Is it okay to believe you?
I like you.
Me too.
What... then...
Yes.
With me?
Yes.
I'm sorry for the late response but
yes, I'll go out with you.
-Tha...nks! -What?
Tha...nks.
Haruko-san. It's a rice shower!
You should be stopping it, rather than saying that.
-I'm sorry. -Goodness me.
I'm sorry.
Sorry.
It's raining isn't it.
The taxi's here.
Thank you for everything.
-Please take the umbrella back with you. -No it's fine.
-Please take it. -But you'll get wet going home.
I bought it for you as a birthday present.
It's the umbrella I didn't manage to give you.
Okay then... borrow it.
Please return it to me next time.
Okay!
I'll borrow it.
Good night.
Off you go.
And so it's a win. Japan,
beautifully turned the game around.
They've brought to an end their bad run.
For the players who made it through tough times to succeed,
there's huge applause and cheering.
I'm home. Don't catch a cold. Goodnight.
-Let me reply for you. -Why would I do that.
'you'll win,' 'I like you' 'tha...nks'
In the end, you kept it to three syllables beautifully.
It's just a coincidence. Really, it just happened like that.
It wasn't a coincidence. When you were at high school
on your toughest day, she cheered you up.
On her toughest day, you cheered her up.
It was all inevitable.
Hey, you said that you'd help out
it I got her to come over, but
you didn't do anything did you. -What!?
Ah well, I'm grateful you didn't get in the way.
Good grief, you seriously need a whack with my godly hand!
-Thwack. -I really don't get it.
It was my godly hand that
hung up the blue T-shirt in the most prominent position
so she'd easily see it. -That's it?
It was also my godly hand that continued carving
the shogi piece so there'd be lots of wood shavings.
Lots of wood shavings so you need vacuum cleaner, on go the lights and bam, the T-shirt!
So really there was no need for me to carve this thing.
How thickheaded can you be! It's because you were carving this
that the suspicion that you were living with someone was cleared up.
It was because of the tofu bag that you bought
that the suspicion arose in the first place!
It would have been awkward if she'd found my frilly apron right.
Don't bring any more things over!
Anyway... since we are now clearly going out,
there's no need for you to come over anymore.
You complete fool!
We've only just finally reached the starting point.
How much time did that take?!
No no no, I think it was miraculously fast.
To be absolutely clear, you've less time to get married.
What do you mean, less time?
From meeting to now, it took a month and a half.
-There's only a month left. -What?
It absolutely impossible.
We don't have time for your pointless witterings.
We're running really tight, if you don't get married
by the end of the month, the world will be destroyed.
It'll be 'laters forever.'
Just one month...
