"Maruyama Yoko"
"After quitting the school, I wrote letters to all of my students."
"Kanta-kun, how are you doing?"
"3 years have passed since Kanta-kun and the rest of you graduated."
"What are you up to?"
"I have left the teaching profession now."
"But..."
"...I will never forget about any of you."
"If you'd let me know how you are doing now, I think I'd be happy."
"My Dream" "What is everyone's dream?"
- "To be a soldier!" - "I wanna be a soldier, too!"
"I want to be a flight soldier, and fight against the enemy with my Dad."
"I'd like to become a campaign nurse and be of help to the injured soldiers."
"Me too! Me too!"
"I wondered what sorts of dreams those children were holding now."
"And I wondered what sort of dream this child would have, too."
"I thought it would be best if she was free to choose whatever dream she wished."
"In the Spring of Showa 22 (1947)..."
"...our world gradually regained both its composure and hope."
"It really didn't seem as if 2 years had already passed since the end of the war."
"But on the other hand, it had only been 2 years since the war ended."
"Shadows of the war still remained, here and there."
Thank you for waiting!
"Maruyama still wasn't able to obtain any soba..."
"...so we made every sort of konnyaku (vegetable) noodles cuisine that we could."
It's nice on Sundays, isn't it, what with all of us working here.
And the store is busy, too, isn't it?
Yes. It's lots of fun.
If only we had soba.
Dad, you promised not to talk about that.
Show a little more patience.
Okay! Sorry 'bout that.
- Welcome! - Ah, welcome!
Well, this way, please come in.
Over here!
What will you have?
Um...
What is the least expensive thing in this store?
Thank you for your hard work.
Now!
We don't have anything great, but please eat anything.
Welcome back. Thank you for your hard work.
Thank you very much.
I was the same as you.
It was tough, wasn't it? Let's do our best together.
Yes.
Thank you very much!
Please have a seat.
Thank you very much.
Somehow... I can understand the feelings of both sides.
Both sides?
Yes.
That feeling of not being able to forget the hard times.
And the feeling of wanting to think only of the future and forget everything else.
But...
...is it really for the best to forget...
I'm a little afraid...
...I'm forgetting things bit by bit.
It's a feeling I've felt more of recently somehow.
Haruki-niisan's death...
...and those of other people.
Somehow it feels terribly irresponsible of me...
And then I suddenly feel rather guilty.
Yeah.
What do you think, Kazu-san?
I'm sorry for not having any easy answers...
Yes.
You'd like to become happy without forgetting, right?
Yes.
That's right.
Then start from tomorrow.
Yes. I'm sorry. Please take care of me.
Do your best, Yoko-sensei.
Yes.
Itadakimasu.
- Itadakimasu. - Itadakimasu!
Yoko-chan, make sure you eat for Hinako's share as well.
Yes!
Even if you say that, there's nothing here.
I suppose.
Well then.
Mom, what's the matter?
Huh? Nothing.
Eh... Are you sure?
You'll be starting from today, right Yoko?
Ah... yes.
Please take care of me.
Yeah.
Yoko-chan, do your best.
I will. Thank you very much.
"I will. Thank you very much."
Eh?
I was imitating Yoko.
Why, I wonder?
I suddenly...
...was reminded of the morning when Kazunari was sent to the front.
Oh my.
I wonder what's up with me?
"Yoko, you'll go to school in the morning."
"And I'll see you off."
"Yes."
"I'd like to savor such a day."
"Yes, I understand."
"- I was imitating Yoko-chan." - "Eh?"
"Wasn't that just like her?"
"Give me a break."
"I thought it was just like her."
"It wasn't!"
"I'll be going."
"Get going!"
It's difficult to understand, but...
...peace is nice, isn't it?
Yeah.
Peace is good.
"If only we had soba."
"Dad, you promised not to talk about that."
"Ah... sorry 'bout that."
Ah, doing me again, huh?
You even included me, too?
I'm sorry.
Oi, oi!
Mom.
Yoko, such a thing...
Imitations...
Hinako...
Ah, I'm sorry. I've kept you waiting.
This is great, she's come.
Well then Hinako, let's go.
Say, Yoko.
Shouldn't you leave Hinako behind?
No, because of the store, she'd be impossible for you.
Don't worry! They said it was okay to bring her along, too.
Really?
Yes.
Well then, okay Hinako.
Whaa... This'll be nice for you.
Yes, thank you very much.
Well then, we'll be off.
Oh, get going.
Get going.
We'll be going.
Yes, let's go.
"I was helping a food company with their accounting during the day."
"I chose that company because they said they didn't mind my having a child."
Starting today, Maruyama Yoko-san will be working on things along with us.
Everyone, let's all please get along.
I'm Maruyama.
I'll make sure as much as possible that my baby won't bother you...
...so please watch over us.
Nice to meet you.
Excuse me!
Keiko-chan!
Welcome, Keiko-chan!
It's been a long time, Yoko-sensei.
You've come a long ways.
Oh! Do you remember me?
- Ah, the Soba Soldier. - Yeah!
It's been a long time.
Thanks for coming.
Welcome.
Ah, nice to meet you. I am Yoko-sensei's student, Ishii Keiko.
Sorry for bothering you. Please take care of me.
That's a splendid greeting, isn't it?
Then, Keiko-chan, let's begin.
Yes!
Today we'll be studying the new unit measures.
Yes.
First off, let's try out these problems I've prepared.
Yes.
If there's anything you don't know, just tell me.
Yes.
"On that day, my new living started."
