(Masa) the long waited concert will be in 2 weeks
("Sakura Matsui's recital Music Dedicated to Children 6 pm August 24")
there are fliers in the shop
thanks for the meal thank you very much
oh, a master from “Yamacho” (Tatsuhiko) hello
excuse me will you keep these fliers in the restaurant?
what is it? your wife's recital? please keep them
at very busy “Yamacho”
a disaster was developing without anyone realizing it
(Senkichi) ouch! (Nogiyama) Sen san are you all right?
ah... I'm okay
you'd better let the young ones do it
nobody can struggle against advancing age no, no
the head! there is bad smell in the warehouse
aye!? I think
some barrels are getting moldy I see
(Nogiyama) ah, mistress
(Sakurako) one barrel was rotten?
yep there wasn't enough salt in it
(Nogiyama) Sen san is checking the rest now
master, mistress I am sorry
it's all my fault
Senkichi san please do not apologize
that's right, Senkichi san it's not your fault, Senkichi san
to cause miso to rot
it's first time since I'm in charge of warehouse
I think I'll take the responsibility
I'd like to resign from “Yamacho”
the head! Senkichi san
please don't say anything like that, Senkichi san there is no need
I've been thinking about it for a while
we haven't prepared the real Hacho Miso
since we last did 7 years ago in 1940
the supplied beans are little and of low quality
I wonder when we can make pure Hacho Miso again
after the war, people's preference have changed
the aged person like me who can do only one thing
there is no work for me to do any more
the time for younger generation has come
♬～
well, what do you think of what Senkichi san said?
about Hacho Miso?
we certainly say we are well-established Hacho Miso maker,
but we haven't made Hacho Miso for years
but I wonder
if everyone has forgotten the taste of Hacho Miso
it's impossible
well, Tatsuhiko san as soon as the war was over
I thought where they were
hiding these beautiful Kimonos as there are more and more women are wearing them walking in the city
I remember I was so surprised
I see it's not there so they put up with
the reality is there must be a lot of people who want to taste nice miso
if we can confirm that
Senkichi san wouldn't say, he wanted to quit
yep for example, how about traditional Japanese restaurants in Nagoya?
there was a customer from Nagoya who wanted to buy it
as much as we had, even a little
traditional Japanese restaurants in Nagoya...
♬～
it won't hurt us to find out how much demand there is
when we sell it again
okay, I'll go to Nagoya I'll come along
no, thanks you have just 2 weeks till the concert
concentrate on piano now
but I'll ask around here
♬～
you have Hacho Miso? no, I'm afraid not
but in a year or two, when we get the raw material
I think we can make Hacho Miso like it used to be again
even if you prepared it a year from now
you can't produce Hacho Miso right away, can you?
we are talking about such a distant future
but this restaurant has been well-established for 100 years
there must be a lot of older customers
these customers should remember the real taste they had
in the past even 5 or 10 years later
when we can finally produce it, we'd like to make you the top of the list to supply
♬～
can we have your name in this reservation form?
if there is a high demand for Hacho Miso
the supply of soy beans might increase
and the government might lift price controls soon
that makes sense
please
♬～
thank you very much
♬～
here is a signature from restaurant that asked for Hacho Miso
when it's available
that means there are a lot of customers behind
when we can prepare the real Hacho Miso will certainly come sooner or later
till then, I want you to stay, Senkichi san
is it possible?
hello
I got a signature, just from one restaurant though
Senkichi san I ask you too please stay
to get these signatures, how many restaurants did you visit?
for someone like me you did so much
it gives me pain
♬～
I... I'm a happy man will you think it over?
Senkichi san
♬～
I felt relieved seeing you two
thinking you two will be able to revive Hacho Miso
without me worrying about it
but I... I'm still attached to it
till then until when it happens
I'd like to stay at “Yamacho” by you two
and see it together
♬～
please do so
yes
♬～
it turned out well yep
hey are you all right?
yep we've been busy lately
it seems like I got too much sun in the heat
it's impossible to do both the shop and piano
at least for the time being, you'd better concentrate on piano now
but I am married to this shop
I must work for the shop as well
I really thought so about this
sorry, Tatsuhiko san let me concentrate on piano just another week
after that, I'll concentrate
on the work for the shop
you don't need to worry about future
when I was worrying about future
you were looking at only now graciously
just concentrate on music now okay
♬～(Piano)
