I'm home.
You came back.
Thank you.
She said, "my legs!"
That?
Please marry me. Please!
What?
But now, Japan is trying to be reborn as a new country.
What kind of doctor will you be when you graduate?
I'll be going back home to Azumino.
I want to open a hospital in Azumino.
Then . . . it'll be the Sudo Clinic!
I guess . . .

You were a little bit off.
Oh . . . Yoko?
I'm home.
What's up?
We only have a half day of classes on Saturday, so I came to see how you're doing.
Is that it?
How have you been, Shige?
Lately, I've been helping Takeo's family out in the fields a bit.
Really? You've been doing that?
It's a way for us to get food supplies, too.
I see. Is that it?
Excuse me . . . may I ask a question?
Yes, what is it?
Is the Sudo Clinic in Azumino around here?
Sudo Clinic?
You're . . . ?
Before he left, I talked to Shigeki about it.
When I become a doctor, I should turn the house in Azumino into the Sudo Clinic.
I see.
I'll be married, and have children . . .
Shigeki would live close by. And Yoko, too.
We talked about how much fun it would be.
Do you know where there's a hospital around here?
It's my daughter . . .
Don't worry, Mother. I'm a doctor.
Thank you . . . please!
Open wide.
Don't worry. It's okay.
He's a doctor at Sudo Clinic in Azumino.
I'm really grateful for your help that day.
Thank you!
No . . . please . . . raise your head.
Here you are.
I wanted to come sometime and thank you,
but I couldn't get here during the war.
Finally . . . I was finally able to come.
I see. Thank you for coming all this way.
Um . . .
is the doctor who helped me here?
Well . . . no . . .
my oldest son, Haruki . . .
died in the war.
What?
I'm so sorry.
I had no idea. I didn't mean to be so rude.
No . . . not at all.
I'm happy . . .
that you remembered Haruki.
I'm sure Haruki is happy. Isn't he?
Yes.
Thank you.
If he hadn't helped us that day,
my daughter . . .
After Dr. Sudo checked her, he told me to take her to the hospital just in case.
According to the doctor at the hospital,
we had a close call.
If it weren't for Dr. Sudo's diagnosis,
my daughter could have died.
So Dr. Sudo . . .
is my child's benefactor.
We encouraged each other
by promising to go see Dr. Sudo together sometime.
We would thank him.
We looked forward to that day,
and tried to stay alive to do that.
I couldn't just let my daughter die in an air raid
after Dr. Sudo had saved her life.
Is that right?
Haruki . . .
as a doctor . . .
he did his job as a doctor, didn't he?
I'm glad.
I'm so glad.
Can't we see Dr. Sudo?
No . . .
it's unfortunate, but . . .
I'm sorry.
What's your name?
Hiroko. Murase Hiroko.
Hiroko-chan?
I see. So that's your name?
Hiroko?
Welcome home.
I'm home.
This is where life begins,
and flows on, isn't it?
I'll cure your illness,
so hang on a little longer.
I see. Your name is Hiroko.
Please . . .
please always be in good health.
Take good care of yourself.
I will.
Thank you.
When you grow up, what do you want to be, Hiroko?
I want to be a nurse.
I want to be a nurse who helps doctors
like Dr. Sudo to save lives.
You do?
Thank you.
Thank you!
I give up.
What?
Haruki's just too good . . . even to the very end.
What's with that, anyway?
I wonder . . .
It's hard to bear as his younger brother.
I give up.
What should I do, Yoko?
Why ask me?
You're your own person.
There you go again . . . stop talking like a grade school teacher!
Because I AM a grade school teacher!
Oh yeah.
I hate it when you say that,.
I want to show Haruki up.
Isn't there anything I can do, Yoko, that will make me look cool to everyone?
Why ask me?
- I know! How about a movie actor? - Impossible!
Why not? Well . . .
- How about a singer? - More impossible!
How can you answer that fast?
Dad . . . isn't there something I can do that will make me stand out?
Well . . . make you stand out?
Shigekiyoko
Hello! I'm Shigeki.
I'm Yoko!
Together, we're Shigekiyoko!
What is it, Dad?
It's nothing at all.
Why are you laughing?
It's nothing. Forget it.
What is it, Dad? Tell me.
What? Am I part of it too?
I guess you'd say that. A duo!
A duo? What do you mean?
♫ If I get a raise ♫
♫ I want to buy some clothes ♫
♫ I want to eat to my heart's content ♫
I don't like the way this is going.
What is it anyway, Dad?
No, I'm sorry. I just imagined something rude to you both. Just forget it.
No way! What's so rude?
That's right! What are you apologizing for?
That's enough! Just forget about it already.
If I tell you to forget it, then just forget it!
- Okay. - Okay.
Huh? Wait a minute, Dad. I won't forgive you!
That's right. That was terrible!
He's right. Tell us!
- Dad! - No way!
Again? What are you laughing about?
I had the feeling that Dad, Shigeki, and I
would be okay from then on.
At just that time in Matsumoto . . .
I'm sorry. We've run out of food, so we're closed for the day.
I'm not here for that.
Excuse me ...
Is Yoko here?
Yoko went home to see her family in Azumino.
She went home to Azumino?
So then . . .
By any chance, are you Takeo from Azumino?
Huh?
That's it! You're Takeo, right?
Yes.
Then you're Yoko's . . .
Yes. I'm Maruyama Kazunari.
Sunshine
By any chance, are you Takeo from Azumino?
Huh?
That's it! You're Takeo, right?
Yes.
Sunshine Chapter 15 "BECOMING A MOTHER" Episode 86
I'll be right back!
What . . . ?
Who is he?
Yoko's childhood friend from Azumino, Takeo.
My goodness!
This . . . is my wedding gift.
I wasn't here when Yoko got married.
Oh, gee . . . you're giving us all of this?
These are our homegrown daikon, spinach,
carrots, onions, and burdock roots.
They're delicious! We put our hearts into growing all of this.
I can tell just by looking at them. They look magnificent!
Thank you! Well, then . . .
Wait a bit! Yoko will be home soon.
No . . . that's okay.
No, no, no . . . come on in. After you gave all this to us,
we can't just let you go home like this. At least have a cup of tea.
- It's alright. - Please stay, Takeo.
Okay.
- Here you are. - Thank you.
So you've known Yoko since she moved to Azumino?
Yes.
I've heard a lot about you from Yoko.
What?
You have?
I'll bet she was cute.
Yes, of course! Oh, excuse me.
Not at all.
So . . . were you
there when she lost her mother?
Oh . . . yes.
That's enough . . . don't get carried away, Yoko!
I'm sorry.
I'm so glad.
Um . . . Mr. Maruyama?
Yes?
I . . .
ever since her mother died . . . I . . .
felt I wanted to protect her.
I wanted . . .
Yoko to always be smiling.
That's why . . . and this might be strange coming from me,
but . . .
please make Yoko happy.
When there are clouds,
they hide the sun, don't they?
When that happens,
chase the clouds away, and protect her.
Please make her happy.
Please.
I will.
I'll do as you ask, Takeo.
Thank you.
It's a new era! Your vote will change our country.
It's over . . .
It's over! A new era is starting from today!
Banzai! Banzai!
That's so true . . . it is a new era, isn't it?
I'm so glad. Isn't it great?
Oh . . . Takeo!
Yoko . . .
What are you doing here?
Nothing. It's really late, but I brought your wedding gift.
Thank you.
You married a nice man, didn't you, Yoko?
Thank you.
Well, I'll see you.
Okay.
Be careful!
He was in love with Yoko, wasn't he?
Yoko seems to be a little dense when it comes to things like that.
You have a big responsibility, Kazunari. Here!
I'm home!
She's back.
Welcome home! Someone named Takeo just...
I ran into him outside.
You did?
Welcome home.
I'm back.
Kazunari . . . is everything okay?
Are there any clouds around here?
What? Clouds?
Not that kind of cloud.
What?
It's nothing. Come over here.
Go on.
Look! These are all from Takeo
for your wedding gift.
This is awesome!
He's a nice guy, isn't he?
He is.
"Takeo . . .
thank you so much for bringing us
all these vegetables that you put
your heart and soul into growing.
It made me so very happy.
You've . . .
watched over me ever since my family
moved to Azumino, haven't you?"
Good morning!
"I'm grateful to you."
Good morning, Takeo.
Good morning!
♫ My darling . . . ♫
♫ Yes, dear? ♫
- Oh, Yoko! - What?
Congratulations on your graduation.
Thank you.
"I've moved a bit far away,
but I promise you
that I'll be happy."
And just around that time . . .
I had the same dream almost every night.
It was a strange dream.
Mom?
Mom!
What is it, Mom?
What did you say? Mom!
The same dream again . . .
- Good morning. - Good morning!
Good morning!
Huh? Where's your husband today?
He went out for a bit for some supplies.
It must be hard . . .
Hey . . . is this still okay?
This?
It's okay. It's still edible.
I thought so.
That's right. We won't die.
We're all strong and healthy.
That's right. It would be a waste.
Go ahead.
What's wrong, Yoko?
Excuse me a moment.
What?
Oh, just a minute . . .
Huh? It's okay, isn't it?
Mom . . . I'm sorry.
Yoko . . .
Yes?
By any chance, are you . . .
What?
Could you be?
What is it?
In here . . .
In here?
I think it's okay . . .
Do you think it's spoiled?
What?
Yoko . . . congratulations!
What?
Sunshine
Yoko . . . congratulations!
What?
Sunshine Chapter 15 "BECOMING A MOTHER Episode 87
What?
Are you sure?
That's not something I can answer for you.
I just thought it might be possible.
That's right . . .
You're supposed to feel nauseous, aren't you?
That's true, but . . . are you okay?
Yes.
What am I going to do? I . . .
When will the baby be born?
We don't know that yet.
That's right. We wouldn't know, would we?
I have to go tell Kazu!
Wait a minute. Calm down!
Okay.
Listen . . . this is very important to the Maruyama family.
Yes.
So wait until you know for sure before you tell him.
You're right.
Well, then .. .
let's go see Saki, the midwife, today.
It's Sunday, but we'll ask if she'll see you.
We'll tell him after that.
Let's wait until we're sure.
Okay? Do you understand?
Yes.
Are you okay, Yoko?
Hey! You! Do you really understand?
I do.
Hey! Yoko!
What's wrong, Yoko?
You've been grinning like a fool all this time.
No . . . it's nothing.
Did something good happen to you?
No . . . nothing at all.
Sis . . . I have to talk to you a moment.
- Because... - Because I told you, I have to tallk to you.
But . . . I know!
That's it!
By any chance . . . are you pregnant?
What?
Did I say anything wrong?
Yes, you did.
Then . . . is it true?
Yes.
Is that right?
Good job, Yoko!
Thank you.
So . . . you're pregnant?
But I just told her
that it's just a possibility. Didn't I?
What do you mean?
What?
I'm sorry.
Never mind! Let's trust in my intuition.
Congratulations!
That's so great!
Thank you. Thank you.
Well, I'll be leaving.
Excuse me.
But I started to feel somehow uneasy.
This is where I gave birth to Kazunari.
Oh? Is that right?
Yes.
Right here?
Yes.
Three Things for Pregnant Women to be Aware of
Female Anatomy
Saki, you know,
is a little scary, but she's a good midwife.
Okay.
Yoko!
Oh! So it's you, Tokuko.
Are you having another baby?
What are you saying? It's not me . . .
My daughter. Kazunari's wife.
I'm Yoko. I'm pleased to meet you.
I see, I see.
Come on in.
Go on. I'll be waiting.
Go on.
They're back.
Welcome home.
I'm back.
How did it go?
Thank you.
Thank you!
Thank you.
I'm so happy. I'm happy.
Yes.
Kazunari . . . Yoko . . .
Yes?
Go to Azumino and tell them.
You're right.
Go, and tell your mother.
I will.
Thank you!
Hey! What are you all doing out here?
What is it?
Is something funny? Is there something on my face?
Well . . . well . . . congratulations!
Thank you. Hey, hey!
Did something good happen?
What should we do?
Shall we tell him?
- What? Tell me! - I don't want to!
Tell me!
I'm home!
Oh! What are the two of you doing here?
Hello. Sorry to barge in.
I have an important announcement.
What? An important announcement?
What is it?
Excuse me . . .
I want to tell Mom and Haruki first.
Okay.

Mom . . .
Mom!
What's wrong, Toku?
Today's a day to celebrate, isn't it?
It is.
When we were at the clinic,
she looked so unsure and was trembling.
Just like a little girl.
What?
When you think about it, that child lost her mother when she was ten years old,
and lived only with men. She was the only girl all that time.
There are a lot of things that
girls need to ask their mothers about and learn from them.
When I think that she had to overcome
all of that by herself . . .
it just seems so brave of her . . . so brave.
Yoko . . . what's wrong? Aren't you feeling well?
No, it's nothing.
- Are you sure? - Yes.
Mom . . .
What should I do?
Mom . . .
Mom?
I wish I could have held her
tightly in my arms then,
and tell her it was all right.
I'm sure it must have been one of the things her mother regretted.
That's why . . . that's why . . .
I want to do what her mother would,
and make sure
that she gives birth safely.
I have to.
Don't worry, Tokuko. Let's do our best.
Thank you.
