Good morning!
Let's have a quick review again today.
This person, Muneo-san, is Mineko's uncle.
He doesn't look anything like his older brother, does he?
As the second son, he was sent off to a nearby village to marry into another family.
Muneo-san, what's going on?
"What's going on"? Nothing.
When his older brother is away, it's only natural for his younger brother to come over and check on things sometimes.
Muneo (Uncle)
Right, Mineko!
Thank you. We're happy to see you.
No, no... Oi, here.
Thanks for coming. It's a help.
No, no, it's no big deal.
Watch out.
Pop!
What is it?
"What is it?" he says. So not nice.
Such a typical Ibaraki man. A man of few words, most of them bad ones.
Still, well, what's with that outfit of yours?
These are cool clothes. Right?
What on earth sort of man are you supposed to be?
"What sort of man am I"? An Ibaraki Prefecture man, right?
Right?
Right!
Dad, Uncle Muneo-san has come over.
Our family that had been feeling a bit depressed is now lively and bright.
Gao!
Don't throw things. You could hurt someone.
I couldn't do that since I'm such a lady.
Huh?
Who are you talking about? Where's this "lady"? You'll only find country girls out here.
Where could one be, Volunteer Member Chiyoko?
One cannot be found!
Cannot be found!
Can't be found, huh?
Hey, what is that!
Kyaa!
Is your wife okay with you being over here?
My wife? Ah...
It's okay. It's not okay and she's scary, but it's okay.
Hmph, which is it?
Like I said, it ain't okay, Pop.
But it'll be okay.
By the way, his wife is this woman.
I see...
And so that's why you don't like Tokyo somehow, huh?
People should do the things they like.
Hmm... I wonder why.
Hmm...
Still, that ain't the fault of Tokyo.
Huh?
I like Tokyo.
Huh? Have you ever gone to Tokyo, Muneo-san?
Nope.
Huh?
I haven't, but I'm sure it's a nice place.
I like Ibaraki, too, but everyone who has gone to Tokyo...
...and is living there says it's a good place. So I'm certain it is.
Yeah...
And what's more, Mineko.
What is it?
My older brother, your Father...
...he was able to go to Tokyo as a migrant worker...
...so it's best if you be grateful for that.
Yeah.
Still, you mustn't feel sorry for him...
...or think he's having a painful time there.
Why?
Well it's true my brother...
...would rather be here with his family and out in the fields...
...and so he'd feel lonely all by himself.
But he doesn't think what he's doing was the wrong thing to do.
He ain't that kind of a man.
He's working hard there for the sake of his family.
That's why he's doing it.
So you shouldn't feel sorry for him.
That would just be being rude towards your Dad.
Understand?
Ah, thanks.
You're going back to harvest your rice?
Yes, I think so.
I'm going back home, too. Soon now.
Yes.
The rice paddies should be so beautiful about now.
They should be, right?
Oi, you're still eating?! Oi! It's the siren, the siren!
Yes! Yes!
So he'll be coming home to harvest the rice?
Yeah.
But anyhow, he'll be heading back right afterwards, right?
When that time comes, don't get all sad about saying goodbye.
You should send him off with a smile and a "Please do your best."
Right, Mineko?
Though the little ones can't help but be sad, you're an adult now.
So do that. Got it?
Got it.
Okay! Yeah.
All this talking has made me thirsty.
Muneo-san, why are you always smiling like that?
Why do you think?
Huh?
It ain't because you think I'm a moron, is it?
I wasn't thinking that!
Really?!
Yeah... Yeah...
I made up my mind. That I would live smiling.
Why?
Hmm...
I'll tell you when you've grown up a bit more.
Eh?! What's that?!
Just now you told me that I WAS grown up!
Did I say such a thing?
You did!
For pete's sake, geez...
Dad, you said this once, didn't you?
That Muneo-san had come back from the war a changed man.
Well then... shall I work?
That back when he was a child, he would always follow after you obediently...
...and was just a quiet little brother.
Be careful, okay?
Sure thing!
Come again, okay!
Sure thing!
Bye! Bye-bye!
Susumu, let's go!
Bye-bye!
Wait!
Come again, okay!
Come again, okay?
It gets lonely when he leaves, doesn't it?
It does, doesn't it?
Still, Dad'll be back soon, won't he?
He does.
What will he want to eat? What'll you make for him, Mom?
Nothing special... Nothing out of the usual.
Eh... you're lying!
You'll make a feast for the night Dad gets back, won't you?
You've already been thinking about it, right? You've decided what it'll be, right?
What are you doing teasing your parents for!
Geez, you really are a fool girl.
Hey! Susumu! Chiyoko!
Wait up!
And then at last, the day her Father, Minoru, would return had come.
Thump, thump... thump, thump... thump-thump
Dodonpa dodonpa dodonpa ga
Goes my heart
Watashi no mune ni
'Morning.
'Morning! Up early, aren't you?
Just woke up somehow.
Ah...
Eh? What is it?
No, it's nothing.
Really?
Dad.
Mom is wearing her prettiest blouse that she treasures the most.
And it seems she's put on a little bit of makeup, too.
What is it?
Ah! Susumu!
For pete's sake, geez! Dad'll get angry with you.
Eh?!
Don't give me "Eh?!" geez!
Huh? Isn't this pee stain in the shape of Ibaraki Prefecture?
Look.
This is where Ookuibaraki is and this is where the town of Mito is.
Right?
Yeah.
Don't give me "yeah." Geez!
For pete's sake...
Oh!
Ah... Geez, Grandpa saw it.
If you're a man, at least pee a map of the world.
What are you saying, Grandpa?!
If he peed a map of the world, what would happen to the futon!
You used to do the same when you were little too, you know.
Why are you bringing that up now?!
It makes me quiver
Furue chaukedo
But I guess I will wait for you
Yappari matte iru
That's...
Sore wa...
I'll be going.
The night burns and my heart burns
Yoru o kogashite mune o kogashite
With a bursting rhythm
Hajikeru rizumu
Thump, thump... thump, thump... thump-thump
Dodonpa dodonpa dodonpa ga
Tokiko! Good morning!
Even though she sees me every day, she's that happy about it.
'Morning! You're early for once today.
I just got up early somehow.
Because your Dad is coming home?
It makes me look like a child, so it's embarrassing though.
That's not true.
Oh! Mineko! Today's the day your Dad comes back?
Yeah!
Excuse me.
This is city of Akasaka in Tokyo.
Tokyo - Akasaka
Akasaka lies in the heart of Tokyo.
Yet even so, in an alley just a step away, there's a shopping district, isn't there?
Ah! It's jet streams!
Just before the Olympics, planes were practicing doing their drawings.
Senpai. Genji-senpai.
Huh?
We'll be opening the shop soon. Please hurry that up.
Huh?!
Ah... we've got some great weather.
Hide, how many reservations do we have for today?
We have five reservations.
Have lots of soup prepared.
Yes sir!
Oi, Hide! You're slow! Make sure to get yours done!
Well, let's work hard today, too.
Yes sir!
Ehh...
Macaro nigratin...? Nigratin?
Welcome.
We're open now. If you'd like, please come in.
Ah, no, but... Ah, what a great aroma.
Isn't it? Now, come on in.
Come in.
I do want to try some...
