Minoru-san? It is, isn't it?
Minoru-san is alive, isn't he?
But the atmosphere about him seems to have changed somehow, doesn't it?
Good morning.
All of you may know this...
...but the Giant's baseball team won last night.
Line Manager Matsushita Akira
That works out perfectly for us. It's a happy thing.
I'm not saying this because I'm a fan of Nagashima, particularly.
It's just that it is something that benefits our company.
You understand what I mean, right?
Housemistress Nagai Akiko
Listen. The Giants team is strong.
And thus the Korakuen Stadium will be filled every day.
And at that time, the thing the fans will have in their hands is...
Eh... what would it be, Sumiko-san?
Eh? Uh...
Ah, that thing that's been on TV... That big drink thing.
A Neapolitan...
B? Right?
Wrong! Not only wrong, but really wrong!
Ah, C then? Right? That's it?
It's not that, and what's more, you're not even close!
Since it's not that, what is it that...
...the fans will be holding onto... Abe-san.
Yes. A transistor radio.
Exactly right! That's understandable, isn't it?
Why would they watch a baseball game and listen to the radio?
That's right, huh?
Yeah.
Since they couldn't receive live commentary about the game while they were watching it...
...listening to that on the radio works.
Ehh... is that what they do?
Makes sense.
In those days, it was a golden age for the Nagashima Giants.
Starting this year, they would win the Central League championship 9 years running...
...and be plunged into the V9 era.
The popularity of the Giants exploded among the children...
...and the words "Giant," "Taihou" and "Omlette" became popular.
One, two!
Ah!
It's D! D... D...
Right? Right?
Dad... how are you getting along in this hot weather?
How are things going for you?
It will soon be four months since I came to Tokyo.
I am working hard along with everyone else.
Except for the time she spends working, Tokiko is practicing at plays...
...and was even asked to participate in a theatrical company's lessons.
Ahh....
Let's work together!
Okay, start!
The warning bell has sounded!
It's a rebellion! Everyone wake up!
What is that?!
I can hardly tell you!
What's happening?!
Madame!
Okay, Maid!
Madame, what should I do?
Tokiko is putting her all into it. She's so cool.
Toyoko had received very high marks from her correspondence high school.
Individual Learning Situation Table
Whaa!
Toyoko, is awesome. She's great.
And she's adorable.
It's nothing... not much...
...but it is!
What is that?
What was that!
Really! Geez!
Geez!
Thank you very much.
Ow! Who was that? One of you smacked me too hard.
Eh?
Weren't me... Weren't me...
Sumiko!
Even though Sachiko-san is our Dorm Room Manager...
...she once broke the curfew.
Be careful.
Don't fall.
What's going on?
Shh!
Sorry.
Her expression at that time was so adorable.
But she was a delinquent.
Not a Dorm Manager, but a Delinquent Manager.
(Ryo-chou)
(Cho-chou)
Sorry for the bad pun.
The summer heat seems to be affecting Yuko-san...
...and we're a little worried about her health.
So then...
I don't care much for liver.
Itadakimasu. Thank you very much.
For Yuko-san's sake, Kazuo-san of the Dining Hall...
...came up with a special Summer Stamina To Prevent Exhaustion menu, relieving us.
Ahh!
I think Sumiko's the one who is enjoying life here the most.
Sumiko! Sumiko! It's morning!
Sumiko!
What'll I do...
I've gotten 3 kilos fatter since coming to Tokyo.
That's true.
Eh?
I don't recognize you. You've become a tub of lard.
Eh?
I don't know about that, but I can't stop! Seconds!
And then, about me...
Occasionally I'll go to the place where you had been, Dad...
...but I never seem to see you...
...and going to the downtown area still scares me.
Even though I live in Tokyo, I'm not a Tokyo person...
...yet though Ibaraki is a long ways away...
...I wonder why I feel this way.
This has been my long summer greeting card to you...
...so please take good care of yourself.
Mineko.
1965/Showa 40 - August
Ah! Say, what are all of you doing for the Bon break? Going home?
I can't go home.
I'll be concentrating on my studies and will stay here.
I want to go back, but I'll stay here, too.
I see... You too, Tokiko?
Yeah. I have lots of things to do here, but because she thought I was coming back...
...my Mom was looking forward to it, so I do feel a bit bad about it.
Right? I'll be doing the same. I don't have any money.
I do want to go back home for New Year's though.
I see.
Say, say! How about all of us go somewhere together for just a day? Just one day.
Eh?! Eh? What's that? Where to? Where to?
Since it's Summer, it's gotta be swimming in the ocean!
Ah! Swimsuits!
Whaa... this one and this one are so cute!
This one would be good for me.
Ohh! That's a nice one. It would work for Tokiko.
Ah, this one might be best for me.
That'd be perfect for you, Yuko-san.
Really?
You can wear such things? Looks rickety to me.
No, you're exaggerating things.
No, no!
Are they expensive? I guess the ones using less cloth are the cheapest?
I don't think so.
Ah... but...
I'm buying one! I'm buying one!
Okay! Then let's go out on Sunday to buy them.
We'll find bargain ones together.
Yes! I'll be coming!
Ah, that's right! He said he could borrow his company's car.
Sachiko's Fiance Takashima Yudai
So he'll drive us there.
Wonderful!
Whaa! A drive to the ocean! That's so cool! It's like out of a Kayama Yuzo movie!
Isn't it?
But it is the company truck though.
Ah... what'll we do?
The ocean, huh?
Aiko-san!
Nice, isn't it? To be young.
Sorry about that somehow.
Why are you apologizing?
Well, you could say the Bon Festival isn't a day for such things...
...and not a holiday for things like this, is it?
That's true, right?
It's true the Bon Festival is for welcoming the returning spirits of our ancestors...
...and a day to remember those who have died.
It's fine to have those feelings.
Still, while there are lots of people my age who have memories of those who died...
...it's different for those of you who were born after the war...
...so you should enjoy it as much as possible.
That would make a fine memorial service for those who have passed away.
They would think, "the world has become such a fun place."
Aiko-san, what will you be doing for it?
Huh? Me? I'll be crying.
I'll be having lots of memories and shedding tears at them.
The tears will just keep falling and falling.
Is that right...
And then... I'll eat a lot.
Whenever I recall all the things I couldn't eat back then...
...I just have to eat a lot.
I'll have pork cutlets, ramen, omelet with rice, fried rice, rice curry...
And then pork cutlets! Ah, and croquettes afterwards!
Menchikatsu and ham cutlets.
(a fried cake of minced meat)
And then pork cutlets!
You love pork cutlets, don't you?
Huh? I said that one a lot?
Yes, three times.
Oh my!
Still, going to the beach is great.
I want to get a swimsuit, too.
I want to wear one, too.
Mineko-san, just ask me along. Since I'll turn it down.
Ah, ahh...
Dad...
...why does she pick on me at times like this?
Aiko-san, would you come along with us and go shopping for swimming suits?
How about it?
Come with us.
Yeah, I'll come!
Eh...?
I'm joking! Why are you looking at me like that for!
Have fun, you young people.
Whaa!
This is good for girls of their age, isn't it?
