It will be 2681 yen.
Haruko-san, how much is the frozen peeled shrimp?
Today the special offer is 238 yen.
If you don't have money to pay, put back what's on your pocket, okay?
Ah, maybe I should do yellowtail teriyaki, um but I can't discard boiled Karei either...
Ah... butter salmon...
This?!
It's not good enough, well, let's try the meat, come.
- Wait a moment! - What?
How can you ask what?
This mackerel won't be bought if it's torn like this.
- Do you work here? - No, I don't but...
- Then it's not your problem, let's go. - Auntie.
Auntie?
It was you that poked your finger in here won't you take responsibility and buy this!?
Then, you go and buy it, let's go.
No, wait, wait, wait.
Ouch..
- Ah! - What?
It'll cause problem, if you do such a thing.
- Ah, about this... - Please, make sure you buy this, seriously.
No, this, wait about this...
It wasn't me.
Recently, there's a lot of customers with bad manners.
Ah, this one also has a hole.
It's not me, really.
I was thinking about trying yellowtail teriyaki or boiled Karei
or butter grilled salmon when an auntie over here...
You just don't know when to give up!
You'll have to take responsibility for this. Understood? What's your answer?
Yes.
What am I going to do with this much fish?
Customer!
- You need something else? - Here you have.
- Ah. - You dropped this a while ago.
Yeah.
- Is it Tokyo Tower? - It's Tsutenkaku Tower.
It's smaller than Tokyo Tower.
Is that so...
Here.
Thanks.
See you.
Wait...
What?
The truth is that I didn't do those holes...
Well, I don't care about that anymore since you bought them.
The cherry blossoms are falling...
It's the smell of the spring.
With this encounter under the cherry trees,
the fate for these two was about to change dramatically.
But, there was no way for us to understand that then.
Every day we joined forces in our 4-member family
giving our best efforts.
Even though it was still sad the memories of our dad who was not around anymore.
Hey, Ritsu, where are my Ultraman underwear?
What? They are in the drawer of your wardrobe, Non-chan.
- They aren't! That's why I'm asking. - Did you look properly?
- Ah, I'm hungry... - Welcome back, I'm just preparing breakfast now
- Welcome back. - Hey, and Haruko?
- In here. - She's still sleeping, she's something.
Hey! Haruko, wake up! Haruko.
Haruko...
Hey, you should at least prepare the miso soup.
I'm useless at mornings, you should do things on your own..
Really... get over with that low blood pressure.
They were here, didn't I tell you?
Ah Haru-san, since today the weather is nice, air out the futons later, okay?
Come on, let's go.
Hey Ritsu, where is my shirt?
I always put in the drawer after washing.
Then you should...
Our father died two years ago in a traffic accident.
And it has passed two years since we no longer call Haruko-san "mom".
With only a number of tears you can become stronger
Episode 1 Keep your hands off my mom!
Like a flower blooming in asphalt
Don't be scared of everything you see
Tomorrow will come for you
You suddenly want to meet me
What happened in the middle of the night?
Even if it is a rushed joke
That smile is sorrowful
On top of the building, look at the moonlight
Memory you are holding tightly
Or pride, if you throw them away, again
Good thing will occur
With only a number of tears you can become stronger
Like a flower blooming in asphalt
Don't be scared of everything you see
Tomorrow will come for you
With only a number of tears let's become stronger
Like a flower waving in the wind
Believe in yourself the way you are
Tomorrow will come for you
Wataru!
- Take this. - I have morning practice.
- The trash track will leave. - Then give me that, I'm leaving.
- Let's go. - Yeah, we're leaving.
Have a nice day.
The banquet hall is available for the wedding reception.
Uh...those who are Kongo's relatives, please come quickly this way.
Excuse me please, could you tell me where is the powder room?
Ah, the toilet? This way, this way...
Turning at that corner is the lady's toilet ah, since man's toilet is this side be careful.
Oh dear...
I'll guide you to the restroom, please this way.
What?
Woman's toilet? What you mean with toilet?
I told you, watch your words! Osaka dialect is strictly forbidden.
Sorry.
"I'm sorry".
I'm sorry.
Good grief...
My shoulder got stiff.
Isn't it time for you to get used to it? It's already 2 months since you came to Tokyo.
I don't get along with Tokyo dialect.
That, that.
You don't say it in that way in Tokyo.
- I can properly teach you, you know? - Huh?
Tonight is okay? At my house, while eating dinner...
- Noda-san. - Yes.
- You have a phone call. - Ah sorry.
Guess who? Where are you from?
Do you have a place to stay tonight? In case you don't,
I can take you to a good place.
And if you don't have money, I can also lend you some...
Old man, who are you talking to?
Huh?
You can't pick up an Osaka girl without her consent.
Huh? It'd be better if you fix that way of speaking, okay?
Shut up! You have no right to tell me that.
What are you doing, fool? How low!
- AH. Ouch! - Kimiko!
Sorry, sorry, for making you wait. Who's this?
Dunno, I think he was offering me a hotel room.
Won't you ask him?
What are you doing?
- Hey! - You're wrong.
Wait, what were you doing to my pretty daughter?
Don't even talk to her.
My dad's punch is pretty strong, quickly escape, old man.
Yes, oww.
Wait, you! wait!
Really! Can't my daughter calmly wait for me in Tokyo?
You look good!
Yeah, well, let's go to the high class apartment
Have you forgotten, about mom?
Yeah.
I was only worried about that.
Thanks.
Let's go.
Because you're always carrying on your back that dirty bear.
all the children at this nursery think you are a strange kid.
- Get rid of it! - It's so dirty!
Stop making that cheeky face!
If you don't get rid of it, I'll throw it away!
Ah, it's dirty, full of germs.
Germs, germs...germs.
Let's play outside, okay?
- Let's go, everyone. - Yes.
Yes, Non-chan too, let's go.
Yeah...
- Yes? - Yesss.
Non-chan! Non-chan!
Ah! You should do that in the morning, you know!
What?
And I told you, don't take my jersey.
What?
Haru-san.
Yes.
- Yes, yes. - Damn.
By the way, I went to the bank today and 30,000 yen had been debited.
What did you use it for?
What? Is that so?
- Hey hey, give me that... - Hey, Ritsu, go get the door, quick!
- It's the delivery service. - Hello.
Oh, what's it, Kei?
Next Sunday at Tomomi's wedding, how much will you put in the envelope?
Check the color, please.
Mmm, my finances are painful, so 20,000?
What?
15,000?
No, I think 10,000 it's better.
10,000 yen!?
That much, don't you think that's just too low?
At my part time job, the hourly wage is 900 yen, so, now, that's a lot for me.
I'm not in a position like you, who can use the money in whichever you like.
A barbershop that cannot shave can't make a living, you know?
Ah, I'll call you later, right now, I'm busy, see you.
Well, I'm finished with the cleaning, next is...
A barbershop that can't shave can't make a living, right? Haruko?
Haru-san.
Ah...you know? Next Sunday I have a friend's wedding.
And my dress is from when I was on my 20's, you know?
And after all, in my 30's I want to look this feminine, you know.
And besides, this really suits me, really...
Well, last month you bought this suits, it was 50,000, right?
You said it was needed for the interview at the supermarket.
But...
- We're also in red this month. - You'll have to return this dress.
What!
If we continue like this, we won't be able to move.
What? Aren't we just fine here? The rent is also low.
This is a house owned by dad's company.
They let us stay here as a favor now, but we'll have to leave some day, right?
That's right, but...
Our situation is very bad. Do you understand that?
- I do... - Hey Ritsu, let's confiscate her card.
- No, just don't... - Your card...
You should have a little more responsible, Haruko.
Damn it...
I bought this at this bargain, so I don't think I'll be able to return it.
Now it's too late to return it, plus you took my card, didn't you...
What are you doing?
Ah, his arm is ripped off.
Yes, when I went to pick him at the nursery it was already like this.
It's torn, Non-chan...
It's no use, it's also worn-out.
Its ears are also damaged, his bottom has become bald too...
Okay, leave it to Haru-san.
I bought this at a bargain, and...
And I also opened the box like this, and now it's all wrinkled.
And...I tried the sleeves many many times, so, returning is not possible, right?
- There's no problem. - What?
- Just wait for a moment. - No, but...
Just wait for a moment.
Darn it.
What is the size?
Well, I'd only know from the outside...
I think this is too big...ah.
I think this is too big.
Well, by the way, what's your size?
- 92. - 92.
No, I think this one is too big, I want one like...
Ah, it's good, that I was able to return it...
Okay, next is Non-chan's bear, let's go.
What sort of bear should we buy? Ah!
Isn't he a pervert? Touching other people's breasts?
Ah, Non-chan, isn't this cute?
Next time, I'll just give him money...
And this one?
Non-chan, control yourself!
I'm trying to buy you a new bear.
How cute.
About before, I'm really sorry.
Wait...
No, wait, can you have lunch together?
Why should we eat lunch with you?
I was thinking about giving you a treat...
It's on me.
What should we do, Non-chan?
That's good, boy, you have a bullet train.
- As expected, this is very crowded on Sundays. - Yeah.
I wonder why they all come to the department stores.
Are you a fool? Isn't it because they need to do some shopping.
Ah, that's it. You got me, you got me.
Come on, hurry up and eat.
Your husband must be very happy.
Having such a beautiful wife, and such a cute boy...
Do you play with your dad?
I don't have.
Ah, I get he's not around... he works a lot?
He died.
He died... ah I'm sorry for asking something harsh...
I'm sorry...
No, it's nothing wrong. And it's already been two years.
Quickly, eat.
- The best is to forget. - Huh?
To hurry and forget about your deceased husband, is for the better.
Working on your own and raising a child, it's really hard, and
more than that, if you're a single parent that will cause inconveniences to the child.
I can understand that.
Well, to forget is something difficult to do, but
if you don't, a future happiness won't come.
It won't come.
- Thanks for the food. - It's fine...
What's that about is better if you forget? That pervert.
- Ah! - What? What is it?
Excuse me.
This wouldn't have happened if you had hold it right.
If we go back now, we'll meet again with that guy, what are we going to do...
This.
Ah. Thanks.
And... about the useless talk from before, I'm sorry.
It's fine...Let's go.
- Mr. welcome back. - Good evening.
- I'm back. - Welcome back.
- Did you put your room in order? - More or less.
Can you really have a teenage girl living in this worn-out apartment?
You say that, but I work really hard looking for it, before calling you here.
Don't say it as it's that bad.
Did something happen?
- No, nothing. - Here.
Hurry up and fix the TV.
And then, also the heater, otherwise it'll become just a hindrance.
Why I speak so many words, but didn't get to say one good thing.
Are you speaking to yourself? Because I can hear you.
To whom you talked but didn't say something good?
To whom? Nobody.
Could it be? (a girlfriend)
You're in middle school, don't say that.
If you get that irritated, can it be that you are in love with that woman?
If you are, then it's fine.
They say that, to heal a broken heart you need to look for a new love.
Don't be rude, saying that.
Don't refrain because of me, just look for the next person.
It's better if you forget about someone as mom...
You haven't done anything wrong, dad, it was mom the one who did wrong.
Disappearing with a guy from dad's workplace, what was she thinking?
Because of that, you couldn't stay at the company.
If you consider all, mom was just too selfish.
Don't say such things.
She also, right after that had to deal with many problems.
This person is just too good, really
...what kind of person?
What kind? A pervert! Even though he's a man he was buying a brassier.
But since he said he'll treat us
we went to the restaurant.
And then, when he knew I was single, he gave me a sudden speech.
- You're too soft, Haruko! - What?
Did you talk to a strange guy about our dad being dead?
He just happened to find out.
Why are you so angry?
Who knows! I'll go take a bath.
Don't wanna.
He's just worried, about that, Wataru has a serious mother complex (Oedipus complex).
- ...Hey Ritsu, I can still hear you! - Sorry.
Really.
Do you want me to enter and wash your back?
Hey! Don't come in. Go away, hey, go away!
Geez! That Haruko...
Oh, Noboru, what are you doing?
Okay, your big bro will help you.
But this bear is really dirty, maybe you should get rid of it.
Wataru, did you get to be carried by dad?
Yeah, you too, he carried you and hug you.
But, at that time you were still a baby, you may not remember that too well.
Damn, I forgot.
Everyone forgets about the things when they were babies.
Damn.
Okay, then, your big bro will wash Mr. Bear's belly.
You wash the face, Noboru.
Scrub more and more, or it won't wash.
This bear is so dirty...
Have you properly transfer me to this new junior high school?
Yeah.
I feel depressed, I'll have to go alone into this world of standard Japanese.
- The Nirareba is ready. - What's this?
- Ah, yeah, about that... - Why did you buy such a thing?
But, I thought you should have one.
I don't need this disgusting thing, I can buy my own a bra.
You, don't look like you're wearing one yet,
and they look like a little bigger.
Stay away from your daughter's development.
And when they show through?
Don't say that, anyways, I don't need this bra.
If you have your mother, this wouldn't turn out this way.
There you go again, if you have regrets just cut it out.
Just forget about mom, didn't I tell you that?
I have a father who is constantly complaining only.
I wish she hadn't left.
It's that honest disposition that will make the new woman escape also.
You're too severe!
Your change is 7 yen, thank you very much.
- You can go for lunch. - Alright, then, thanks.
I'm sorry, to meet at this place but I only have a 20 minute break.
No, it's my fault.
Because it's the same company housing, I expressly came here from work because
by all means I wanted to talk to you, Haruko-san.
About what?
Yesterday, I was appointment Chief.
- That's amazing! Congratulations. - Thank you.
But, if Fujii were alive, I think this would never happen to me.
That's not true.
No, he would have become independent before having 40, having his own design company.
He had that sort of strength.
A design company... that was really his dream...
- Customer. - Yes.
It's like I don't believe it even now...
At midnight, when I wake up, I instinctively
look at the desk, searching for his back while drawing the plans.
It's already 2 years?
They went through really fast.
Ah, about money, are you okay? You'll have spend almost all the savings by now.
We're fine, we're fine.
Really? If you have problems with that...
Do I look so pitiful? As a single mother deprived of her husband.
No, I didn't mean that...
Just joking...
Thanks for the food.
What are you looking for?
My mom told me,
you are not the same, because your dad is gone.
You're such a pitiful kid.
Pitiful, pitiful.
We got rid of that bear, while you're taking a nap.
- I'm here Hiro-kun. - Hi mom.
- The dinner is croquette. - Again...
Sorry for being late. Let's go Non-chan.
Why did you do that?
Oh, blood, it's blood...
Sorry... Non-chan, come on, apologize.
Non-chan.
- Are you alright? - What happened?
Thanks to him.
That kid, all of the sudden hit my Hiro-kun with one of the blocks.
Non-chan, Non-chan, is that so?
What kind of discipline his parent has gave him?
I'm sorry.
What will I do if this leaves a scar?
I'm sorry, Non-chan come and apologize.
Non-chan.
What kind of attitude is that? Did you see? Did you see?
He just left in a huff, annoyed.
No, wait, about last time, wait!
I'm really sorry.
I'll take really seriously with Noboru, I'm sorry.
It's alright now, the injury was nothing serious.
Besides, we should have patience with your situation, right? Fujii-san.
- Here you have. - Thanks.
You are raising them on your own, right?
And it's inevitable that you can't teach them discipline, right?
- Here, sorry about this. - Thanks, thanks.
Why do you want to make Noboru apologize?
It's obvious, he was the one that hit the other kid.
It's because they got rid of the bear dad bought, didn't he tell you?
- They are the ones that did wrong. - But violence is not good.
Besides, if he hits anyone who says something about dad, what will we do?
It's fine if he hits them, all those guys.
Wataru, you always say unreasonable things.
And you? Are you thinking about Noboru's feelings?
He only has us, we have to protect him.
Fine...it's my bad.
So, starting tomorrow, you'll pick up Non-chan I'll pass, since I'm not good.
Don't get moody.
You know I hate when you act as hysterical as a woman.
Hysterical woman? I won't allow you to say that even if you are my elder brother, didn't I tell you?
You know I hate that unconcern side of you, Wataru, since long ago.
Now isn't the time for that talk, shouldn't we focus on Noboru?
After all, I also want to join some club after school like you, Wataru,
but I have to go and pick up Noboru, so I have to pass on that.
You always say that you have to put things behind, stop that!
I won't heat a woman or a guy who looks like a woman.
I'm back.
- So you are here... - Welcome home.
What happened between you two?
- You said it, did you, Haruko? - What thing?
To the other parent, that our Noboru isn't the one who did bad.
I can't say that in this situation,
since he hit the other kid in the head.
See, there's no other way but apologizing, for using violence...
This sort of thing happened
because he took that bear to the nursery.
That bear, I think it was thrown away while Non-chan was sleeping.
They got rid of the bear.
Why you don't understand it, Haruko?
That bear, dad bought it for Noboru, it's really especial for him.
It's obvious that he got angry because his bear was thrown away!
Ritsu and I have a lot of memories with dad.
But, he was two years old at that time,
when dad died, so he doesn't have memories of him.
That's why the teddy bear he got for his birthday
for Noburo is as if it were dad.
It's dad for him, that's why he always carries it with him.
When they threw away his bear, it's reasonable he got angry.
Isn't it?
Isn't it right, Haruko?
Just say something!
It's frustrating.
Wataru, Ritsu...
Even I'm your mum I didn't understand that.
It's frustrating.
Non-chan.
Let's have a little talk.
Non-chan?
Non-chan!
- Non-chan! - Noboru!
- Non-chan! - Non-chan!
- Haruko, he isn't over there. - Where he could be?
What are you doing?
Ah, you're the kid.
- Non-chan! - Non-chan!
Hey! Haruko.
Could it be that he went to look for the bear?
Over there.
Non-chan!
- We were worried about you, Non-chan. - I'm sorry, for forcing you to apologize.
Don't go out without permission, you fool.
Non-chan, where are you going?
I'll say this only once, if you don't listen, you'll be scared later.
Noboru, stop!
You're always going to be together, that bear and you.
Since it's the most precious thing for you, right?
I'm really sorry. I'm sorry.
It was a man, right?
Thank you very much.
- We've met him before. - Really? Who?
Don't know.
- Good morning. - Good morning.
Good morning, Hiro-kun. How are you? It doesn't hurt anymore?
No.
Hiro-kun, you know?
Next time you misbehave with Mr. Bear's hand,
I'll cut your hand with a saw.
And one more thing, he has a dad too, I'm the mom and the dad, understood?
From now on, you'll get along with Non-chan, right?
Y...yes.
- Yay! - Yay.
Thanks a lot.
Osaka dialect!
Go guide the guests to the crystal. Hurry, go, go.
I'll leave it to you.
The relatives.
The banquet...hall is ready please follow this way,
Ah! I have to go It may have started already!
Until later.
What's this?
How do I look? Is it wrong? This is the dress from my twenties.
- You're going to be late. - Okay, I'm leaving.
If Haru-san puts on her makeup, she still can look good.
Of course she can, she's our Haruko after all, right?
Yeah.
Geez, Haruko!
Then, all the relatives, now we'll be taking a commemorative photo...
Please, can't we move a little bit slower?
I'm really sorry...sorry.
Excuse me.
This way, please.
- Wait, you can't... - Sorry...
