All of us here have something...
...that we want to give to you as a present, Ai.
A present?
That's right.
Ah...
A photo case?
That's right.
Thank you!
All four of us made that.
A camera...
...and a clover.
Ai...
Each of the leaves of a clover...
...has an individual meaning to them.
They have a meaning?
Yes.
Things that will be very important to you from here on, Ai.
"Courage."
"Love."
"Trust."
"Hope."
Once all of those are present, you will find happiness.
Don't forget that. Even after you've grown up.
Yes.

After the 35th Anniversary party of Kiaris had ended safely...
...the entire group went over to Letbe.
Narrator (Bando Hana): Kanno Miho
Whaa... So adorable!
Who do you take after? Nakanishi-kun?
Or Kumiko-san?
Well... still, if we two hadn't come to work for Kiaris, she wouldn't have been born to this world, right?
That's true, isn't it?
Kumiko-san!
It's been forever!
Hey! Don't try eating it all in one bite!
Dad! Geez!
Are you okay?!
Water! Water! Water!
Hurry, hurry, hurry...
Anyhow, it's been a long time now, Hasegawa-san, Sasai-san.
Eh?
I said it's been a long time, hasn't it?
Ah...
We haven't been in touch for awhile.
Oh! Eisuke-kun!
Seems you're still active at your work.
I've been reading your series of articles in the newspaper.
Thank you very much.
Oi, Eisuke, want something to drink?
Well, I am drinking, though...
C'mon, drink up, drink up.
Thank you very much.
Grandma!
Ah, Ai, what's the matter?
I have a favor to ask of you four...
Please make a lot more of your photo cases!
Huh? What do you want so many for?
To give to my friends at school...
Your friends at school...
All of them were saying, "That's so great; I want one."
Really...
How many should we make?
There's 21 people in my class, though...
In that case, we'll make one for all of them.
Thank you!
Ai.
Okay... thanks for waiting!
Here.
Thank you.
Still, something feels empty somehow...
Haruka-chan is working as hard as she can, isn't she?
She is!
She's a great girl, ain't she?
Yeah.
Da girl who'll become a daughter to ya, Mom.
Eh?!
Haruka!
Yes?
I just done told Mom about us.
Ah...
You... who are still so young...
...you're okay with... an old man like him?
Yes!
Ah, Ryoko-chan!
Ah, sit down!
Are you okay?
Ah... At long last Ryu is...
Dad... ya okay with us?
Of course I am!
Congratulations!
Thanks!
Akemi-san! It's a crime!
Kirisua Alterations
"Kirisua"?
Look!
He's up to his old tricks, huh?
There's so much gossip about him.
Ah, Ryoko-chan! Are you okay?
What's going on?
Sakura-chan said she made some rice balls.
Eh?
Even though we have all these other dishes...
I thought they could be in celebration...
Oh!
Those are made with sekihan, right?
(red rice for auspicious occasions)
These were made with the red beans Eisuke-san got for us a long time ago.
Such wonderful red beans!
Let's eat them on special occasions.
I'll put them away.
Kiyo-san, wait a moment.
Since you're going to put them away anyhow...
They were well preserved, but I wonder if they'll upset your stomach...?
They're great.
They're great, aren't they?
Thank you very much.
It's a wonderful party, isn't it?
Thanks.
Take-chan, who has acted as the President of Kiaris for ten years, is retiring today.
Take-chan.
Ah...
For your long years of service...
Well... thank you very much for all your hard work.
For having given me this important role and duty... I truly thank you very much.
Kiyoshi-san.
Yeah.
Kiyoshi-san, for having conferred such a wonderful relationship as theirs onto me...
...I thank you very much.
I merely introduced the third son of an Oita factory to my employer.
All the rest was due to your own powers, Adachi-kun.
No... I have no powers...
Then if not your power then your charm.
Ah, that's true!
Your charm as a man!
Take-chan, Take-chan.
Yes?
It seems Nakanishi-kun and Abe-kun have gotten you a present.
A present?
One, two...
President Adachi! Thank you for all your hard work!
Ah... thank you.
Oh!
Switch... on!
Take-chan! Sing it!
Me?
Even when I was little, I was a bad kid
Chitchana koro kara aku gaki de
At 15 I was called a delinquent
Ichi go de furyou to yobare tayo
Just like a knife, I hurt everything I touch
Naifu mitai ni togatte wa sawaru mono mina kizutsuketa
Take-chan... thank you for all your hard work.
And so Ken-chan...
...please take good care of Kiaris from here on.
For Manami-chan who likes music, we'll use musical notes.
For Yuki-chan, who's with the Basketball club, we'll use a basketball.
Yeah! We should.
They'll all have a clover in common...
...but how about we add on their names?
Yeah, let's add that.
We should.
Mikako-chan... What would be good for her?
Maybe some bright colors?
The quiet but extremely nice Etsuko-chan.
That's good.
I want them to come to Kiaris.
We want them to come in the future, right?
And I'm curious about this Miyoko-chan who's good at sewing.
Would this color be good?
Ah, it's wonderful!
Photos nowadays are much larger than the ones we had long ago, aren't they?
Should I make one for myself like I did for Akemi-san, too?
In that case, I want to do that, too.
A photo case for that photo with the four of us in it.
I want one, too.
Let's make them.
In that case, shouldn't we embroider each other's?
And use an image that reminds us of that person...
Right.
That would be fun.
Well then...
...over there.
Eh?
One, two...
Here.
Thank you.
Whaa!
What is it?
I'm...
Ryoko-chan.
An apron.
I'm...
Kimie-chan.
Colored pencils.
And I'm...
Akemi-chan.
A heart.
And me...
Violets.
(Sumire)
Thank you for being her friends for all your lives.
Push the needle straight in and pull it straight out.
If the thread gets twisted, just take it back out.
I... So that I can make lots of people feel happy...
...so I can give them those feelings...
I want to become a person who makes that sort of beppin.
I'm going to have a baby.
AHH!
I'm... so happy!
Dad, what do you love about Mom?
Your life is shining.
There's not that many ways of life that can bring smiles to large numbers of people.
Make it so it expresses the sorts of feelings you want to give the one you're making it for.
That... is the very most important thing.
One more photo.
Here goes.
Ah!
Grandma! Grandma!
Huh?
I found a four-leaf clover!
Ah... that's awesome, isn't it?
Sumire.
Life is a flower in bloom.
The End
Our four-leaf clover of happiness
Beppin-san
End
Thank you very much for these six months!!
