Well then, I'll be off.
Yeah.
Congratulations on graduating!
Thank you very much.
This will be farewell to your friends at school, won't it?
Yuck. Don't put it like that, Dad.
Ah, sorry, sorry.
No...
I'll be going.
Have a nice day.
Good morning.
'Morning.
Morning, Takeo-kun.
Ah, good morning.
Graduation day, huh?
Yeah.
You'll be going on to that Teacher's school in Matsumoto.
Yeah. For 2 years.
I'll be in their dorm.
2 years...
Ah, Takeo-kun.
Yes! What is it?
My Dad, he'll be alone...
So please keep an eye on him.
Sure. Leave it to me!
Thanks. So long, I'm off!
Ah, Yoko...
Huh?
Well, um...
Congratulations on graduating.
Thank you!
She asked me to watch over her father...
"30th Graduating Class Azumino Girl's High School Graduation Ceremony"
Ah, this is our last time in this classroom.
It is...
Still Yoko, you sure cried at the ceremony.
That's true.
Eh? I did?
When the Senseis greeted us, you cried.
When they handed out the diplomas, you cried.
At the farewell address, you cried.
At the valedictory, when they said, "Look up, oh ye noble..."
- You cried! - You cried!
Because...
But I'm all better now. I'm refreshed. I won't cry anymore.
Is that right?
Really?
Yes!
Today's our last day together...
It was fun, wasn't it?
It was...
Thank you so much for everything.
No...
Hey, please don't say that...!
Hey, Ikuko. Machiko-san, you too...
Look, you're not all better!
Right!?
Geez!
Hey, what is this!
Eh? Wait! Ah! Geez, wait up!
Ah, I'm sorry.
Geez, wait! Wait up!
Ah, sorry.
Wait!
What is this!? You three!
No running through the corridors on Graduation Day!
- We're sorry! - We're sorry!
Say, shall we go there?
Eh? Ah, we should!
This is where we pledged eternal friendship, isn't it?
Yes. "The Lavatory Gang."
That's wrong. It's "The Blank-Sheet Gang."
That's right.
Still, when I think back, this was all thanks to Octopus, wasn't it?
That's true.
It was. If Octopus had been a good teacher then maybe our friendship wouldn't...
That's true. We should be grateful to him.
"The presence of an enemy makes us friends," sort of thing, right?
Ah... I see. Who said that?
I, Tsutsui Ikuko, did!
Ah, those are great words, Ikuko.
Thank you very much!
- I... - Huh?
My entire life, I won't forget...
I won't forget all of my life the time when the three of us were together.
Eh...
I absolutely won't forget.
I'll treasure it my entire life.
Machiko-san...
I won't forget either.
We'll be friends forever.
Forever.
Even when we're old ladies.
Yes. Forever!
Geez, what is this?
I won't be tricked anymore...
Geez...
Fools...
Congratulations on graduating!
Thank you very much...
Stop! Stop!
Ending your translation at that point is fine.
Ladies... enjoy your lives.
- Thank you for everything! - Thank you for everything!
Well then...
Let's go!
"The afore-mentioned person has graduated from this school's fixed courses..."
"...and thereupon this is the proof."
"Tsutsui Ikuko-dono!"
Thank you very much!
I see, you've graduated, huh...
It'll be lonely without you.
We'll come again.
Yes.
Really? Do come!
Yo, congrats on graduating. Today's my treat.
Really?!
What can we have? All of it?!
Eh?! Really?
But, there's a limit to these things.
- Ehh! - So stingy!
The things in here don't amount to that much!
There has to be conditions set for eating.
- I see... - Yeah.
This is why we're so poor.
Yes, that's why.
Ala?
Come, hurry and get going. We already have customers waiting.
Really, anything is fine. Okay!
- Thank you very much! - Thank you very much!
Please take your time.
Yes! Itadakimasu!
Itadakimasu!
Go ahead, go ahead!
What should I have? Here!
Thank you.
Then I'll have a Niiki. 1 Niiki! (Cinnamon stick)
2 Niiki!
Ah, this looks good, too!
Hey...
Huh? Something wrong?
Um... Right!?
What is it?
Yeah...
I'll be saying goodbye to you today.
What do you mean?
I'm... carrying out my plan!
To Tokyo?
I'm leaving home!
Running away from home?
I got a letter from a tiny publishing company in Tokyo.
So I'm going.
When?
Day after tomorrow...
That soon?
Yeah, the day after tomorrow.
On the day I was born.
My birthday.
I'll think of it as my Independence Day. Just like in America.
I'll take the last train that day.
Why?
Because if I wavered at the station...
...I might think of taking the next one and then I'd never go.
And, if I was found out and they chased after me...
...there wouldn't be any more trains, would there?
Ikuko...
So I'll make today our farewell day.
Otherwise my resolve might start to waver.
No...
I'm no good at seeing people off. Absolutely don't come!
So definitely don't be there.
Please.
Very well.
We'll just see you off in our hearts.
Yeah.
Thank you.
I do have one favor to ask, though.
What is it? Ask us anything.
Could you keep an eye out for my little brother and sister sometimes?
I'm sure they'll be lonely.
All right.
Don't worry.
Thank you.
And...
My Father and Mother, too.
We will.
Leave it to us.
Thank you.
Ma'am!
Can we have 3 bottles of ramune?
Sure!
- Here. - Here.
Yes. Thank you.
Then, let's make a toast.
Okay. Yes.
Then... what should it be?
Hmm...
Ladies, enjoy your lives!
- Kanpai! - Kanpai!
"It seemed as if Ikuko was leaving cheerfully..."
"And Ikuko's deed would move Machiko into action."
Another?
