You finally came here.

You've finally come home.

The look on your face...

it's a little late for that...

I'm sorry.

What did you do wrong?

I went to Tokyo

and I didn't come home...

and now...

I'm sorry.

So?

Now you're going to Paris?

The two of you are going to Paris?

Here. Open it.

It's from your...

fifth birthday.

This person...

Toko...

sent it to me.

I thought you'd get attached to it,

so I couldn't give it to you.

I'm so happy for you, Soramame.

Your mom...

came to pick you up.

I remember

seeing...

the rape blossoms here.

- R-a... - It tickles...

When I was thinking of a name for my brand...

I thought I'd go with "Nanohana."

Japanese wasn't good enough, so maybe in English...

or French...

I thought...

And then...

"Colza"...

Mom...

your brand...

"Colza."

It's French for "rape blossoms."

It's just a coincidence.

I'm sorry.

Soramame.

I'm sorry.

Hold my hand

at twilight

Finale

- Sorry for the wait. - Thank you.

- Seira-chan. - Ah, Mr. Hazuki.

- Huh? What brings you here? - Ms. Isobe Maki called me.

I wonder what it was, but it was a farewell gift.

Yeah, you're leaving for Paris tomorrow, right?

- Yes. - And Soramame?

- At home. Still packing. - What?!

She's the type who don't do things until before the exam. She's so slow.

Hey, hey, how are things going with you and Oto?

- Huh?! - Ah, sorry, sorry.

I'm sorry, I didn't mean to worry you. I know you're busy.

Bye.

Wait!

- Soramame did? - Yes, on that...

snowy night, and you two were...

you know...

What...?

You're dating, right?

You and Oto.

It's done...

- Ah, Mrs. Kyoko. - Yeah.

This package. I've written the address there...

I know, I know, you don't have to say it again.

Don't treat me like I'm too old.

Wanna take one?

No.

I...

enjoyed it,

living here.

I had a great time.

It was...

the best time of my life.

No, Soramame.

There's more good things in store for you.

You will have lots of fun.

Yeah...

Here.

Mmm, Mrs. Kyoko.

You're off to embark on the wider world.

♪ I know everything, everything, everything

Yes, okay. Checking.

- Okay. - Macchan, playback.

Okay, doing a playback.

Oto, a moment.

Okay.

What's the matter?

Soramame... isn't seeing Mr. Hazuki.

- What?! - That snowy night,

Soramame was crying when she called me.

"What's wrong?" I asked her.

She said, "I want to talk to Oto."

I got so jealous.

I thought that if I...

didn't do something, you and Soramame would end up dating. And then...

She was close with Mr. Hazuki, right?

They've started seeing each other.

That... was a lie?

So, Soramame came to Universe looking for you,

and when she saw us hugging,

she thought we were together.

I'm sorry!

This is all my fault.

Hey, today...

tell Soramame

how you really feel at the airport.

I think you can still make it.

I also...

don't know why I lied like that. Get Soramame—

Oto, Seira. It's bad.

Software crashed and all the recordings are gone.

- Sorry, but we'll re-record from the top. - Ah, Ms. Isobe.

Soramame is leaving for Paris today,

as we speak.

If we don't re-record now, we'll never make it.

What do you want to do?

Seira.

Recording.

- Let's get back to it. - What?!

The three of us will see each other again.

If we make it to Kohaku,

she's gonna make our outfits.

Right?

Let's go.

What? You can't go?

Here...

please give this to Soramame.

W-Why can't you go?

- Soramame! Hey! - Soramame!

- Soramame. - Whoa...

- What... - Surprise.

Take care.

Have a safe trip.

- Me... me too... - No...

- Of course no. - Huh?

Here. From Oto.

Soramame!

- Have fun! - Bye-bye.

I'm gonna go get us some water.

Wait a minute, okay?

Okay!

years later

Oh... it's so pretty.

Right?

- I'm glad you liked it. - Thank you.

Still, Mei-chan, I'm happy that you.

You found someone good.

- Thank you. - Wonderful design.

"Mom.

She didn't seem to fit with the flow here in Paris.

Collections come in season after season,

and the designs are ordered according to what's popular that year.

It broke her wings of creativity.

It made her heart feel tight.

I think I understand what she's aiming for.

And so I sent her back to Japan.

Please take care of her.

P.S.

I'll be back when the cherry blossoms are in bloom,

and I've arranged for the elevator to be

in place by then."

Welcome.

Hey!

Mr. Kuon, did you find a good fabric?

Yeah, I found it.

I thought it would be interesting to mix Hakata-ori into the show.

Good idea.

- Looks like Hazuki is doing well in Paris. - Yeah.

He's a pattern maker for Colza.

How about it? Would you like to come back to Tokyo?

You're talking about that again?

Because it's such a waste after the success you had in Paris.

I...

have trouble sleeping.

I sit at my desk...

thinking of many, many ideas for designs.

I don't know what time it is.

Fashion and design

don't make sense to me anymore.

For what...

and for whom am I making it...

I don't know.

Making something...

doesn't excite me anymore.

Every designer with a heart...

goes down that road at least once.

Are you saying that I'm still in the middle of it?

Your designs have power.

Don't you wish people all over the world would wear it?

I want to see the person in front of me happy.

Our neighbor Mrs. Hirabayashi who works in the fields every day,

sometimes makes a trip to Hakata. So I made clothes for that.

She also makes clothes for her farm work.

One that's easy to move.

Jeez, you really are an idiot. You're so talented.

That's a gift from God.

No, whatever God gives me,

it's up to me to decide how I want to live my life.

I'm racing to figure out my next collection,

and tossing previous clothes...

If humans are born and die,

then fashion is a fleeting dream, which is why it's so beautiful.

Is that so?

But...

It's enough.

I'll be here making clothes that will last long.

Sounds like a loser to me.

Some people are born to fight,

and some are born to enjoy life.

I was born to enjoy it.

I'm not like you, Mr. Kuon.

Right...

I made this one myself.

Nice design, right?

I'm gonna make this ribbon for everyone to copy.

I'm also thinking of starting a sewing class.

This ribbon design.

One side is shorter, isn't it?

What happens if someone makes copies of it?

What if they made them both the same length?

You don't mind that?

Don't you want them to make one side shorter as well?

I do...

That's God's gift to you.

God gave you that talent.

Listen to me.

Who would live a life just to enjoy it?

I don't believe that.

However you live your life,

there's no such thing as just enjoying it.

Enjoy it...

and fight it.

Right?

How about you start over again in Tokyo?

No...

My own path...

I've already...

found it here.

I see...

And now, everyone here's Beats Per Minute!

We will now begin the press conference.

Please, have a seat.

First of all, Beats Per Minute will be making their debut on "Kohaku".

Congratulations!

- Thank you. - Thank you.

Please tell us how you feel now.

Finally...

we made it here.

My heart is filled with such emotions.

Kohaku Uta Gassen - NHK Red and White Song Battle

The performers for the "Kohaku Uta Gassen" have just been announced,

and it will be Beats Per Minute's debut on it.

After the announcement, spoke of their feelings at a presscon.

Breaking News Kohaku Uta Gassen Performers Announced! BPM first appearance!

With gratitude, we will do the best that we can

What kind of performance will you give in "Kohaku"?

That's right. I hope we can create a stage that will

surprise people who see it...

Hello?

Soramame... it's been a long time.

- Yeah. - I'm sorry I haven't been in touch.

No, me too.

Oh, congratulations!

"Kohaku," that's amazing.

Thanks.

But... that's not why I'm calling you.

Huh?

Soramame...

- I have something to tell you. - Oh, what is it?

I...

liked you, Soramame.

Me too...

I like you, Seira.

Not as a friend,

but romantically.

What?

But...

I knew the one you liked is Oto,

so I got jealous...

and told a lie.

Lie?

I told him...

that you're seeing Mr. Hazuki...

Oto and I aren't dating.

What?

At that time, all you saw

was just...

Oto consoling me for not being able

to get through to you.

I'm sorry. I lied.

I'm sorry.

Yeah, let's forget about that.

It was a long time ago.

Anyway,

good luck on "Kohaku." I'll be watching it.

Yeah...

Thank you for calling me.

Yeah.

Thank you...

- Welcome home... - Ah, I'm home...

You got a letter.

Huh?

Ms. Soramame Asagi

Oto Umino

Ticket for Fukuoka concert...

Come

- Mr. Decaf... - That's amazing.

Ah, I'm sorry!

- Ah, I'm so sorry... - No, it's okay, it's okay.

Beats Per Minute...

hurry up and go!

- Are you sure...? - Yeah.

- I'm sorry... - Sorry.

Soramame Asagi, right?

- Yes. - Let me check.

Hello, I'm from the Beats Per Minute label.

Mr. DeCaf left a message telling you to come backstage

after the concert. - What...

He said he'd love to see you.

Ah... But...

I'm so sorry! I'm late. It's Kuroki.

- Okay, let me take care of it. - Thanks.

- Has it already started? - Oh, it's okay.

I'm sure you're busy. Thank you.

Oh, I got something urgent...

- Excuse me. - What?! Wait...

Wait...

♪ I can't choose the last words

♪ I want to say to you,

♪ because if I cry, I won't be able

♪ to send you off with a smile

♪ If I could see the future,

♪ I'd still choose the same path

♪ I held tightly so I wouldn't let go

♪ I engraved it so I wouldn't forget

Good job everyone!

What?! She went home?

Soramame Asagi, right?

- Yes. - She said she had something "urgent."

Excuse us.

- Thank you for your hard work. - Same to you, Ms. Isobe.

Decaf, Seira, come here, come here.

This is Mr. Kobayashi, the event organizer for this live concert.

- Ah, hello, thank you for... - Wow, that was an amazing concert.

- It was a huge success. - Thank you.

How's Fukuoka? First time here?

Ah, no, I came here about 4 years ago when a friend of mine invited me...

Oh, I see.

- And you, Seira? - Oh, it's my first time here.

That's when I met Soramame.

"Why did you leave?"

It's almost dead.

"I feel out of place."

"I need to talk to you."

"I'll fly back first thing tomorrow morning."

"You seem busy."

"What do you want to talk about?"

"Actually, I..."

"I'd like to meet you and say it to you."

"Can we meet tonight?"

"I know it's a little late."

"What do you want to tell me?"

Huh? Mr. Decaf, Mr. Decaf.

Hey, let's have a drink together over here.

- Come on... - Yes.

"The after-party will probably be over soon.

I think it'll be past 10."

"At 11:00 p.m., that..."

Of course... Right?

Well then, if I may,

let's have another toast... - Oh, a toast.

- Thank you. - Good job.

- Thank you. - Thank you.

Let's keep at it until morning.

Sorry.

Here...

- What?! - Take it.

- Are you sure? - Yes.

Thank you. Oh, but will you be okay?

- I still have one. - Thank you.

"At 11:00 p.m., that..."

At 11:00 p.m...

That...

Miss! The bus will be here soon.

Oh, here, here, here, Mr. Decaf, here you go. Have a drink.

- Here. - I'll take that.

Huh? Wait...

That's really great. I'll join you then...

Piropiro - Party horn/blower

Okay, let's do piropiro! Piropiro.

- Piropiro. - Thanks.

"At 11:00 p.m., that

intersection where we first met, I'll be waiting."

Why is it unread...?

Soramame!

You lost something.

You know,

if I appeared on "Kohaku"...

I thought I could see you again, so I did my best.

And...

such an encounter we had.

I believed it was fate.

I know it sounds crazy,

but to have the same song like that...

on the same day, in the same place,

listening to it...

You noticed?

Right away.

Me too...

I thought you might have forgotten.

I couldn't tell you.

I liked you.

I like you!

Even now.

Red... the light is red.

You promised me.

You said you'd make the outfit for "Kohaku."

Are you okay with me?

It's for that...

that I did my best.

That's ridiculous...

You're an idiot.

I like you.

Let's be together.

It's a little late for that.

♪ Why did you give me a heart?

Theme Song: Yorushika - Algernon

♪ Why did you draw eyes on me?

♪ Bigger than the sky, drinking in the wind that carries the clouds

♪ My eyeballs were once again seeing a dream

Don't leave me again.

Don't leave me.

♪ Still barefoot

♪ You slowly change, ever so slightly

♪ As if staring at bread that’s gradually rising

♪ You slowly run

Again.

♪ Still unafraid of the long maze ahead

♪ Surely losing your way all the while

Next up, from the red team, it's Beats Per Minute.

Go get them.

Keep it up, keep it up, yup

Back home in a daze, rubbing my eyes

I'm burnt out, I'm going to bed,

fell down asleep right away

No weekend plans,

little regrets piling up

Days that I miss you but can't make it happen

No one knows what the right answer is

But if you keep looking down, you'll never notice it,

the sparkling blue sky

Everything will be all right, it feels like it,

I'll dream as many times as I want

Yeah, it's gonna be all right, no matter what the day,

even so, my dear life

Everything will be all right always

Echoing melody

Every little scene softly light up my heart

You are not alone

Let’s live it up…

Let’s live it up

Let’s live it up…

With you, it's gonna be all right

Let’s live it up!

"Soramame,

we're still in the middle of our dream, aren't we?

So, let's do our best.

Your eternal friend,

until we meet again.

Live tough.

Oto."

Why are you reading that? And why did you even bring that?

"Live tough."

You're trying to look cool.

- So annoying! - And this?

Why did you put it in?

Until we meet again...

I thought I'd leave it with you.

- Now, give it back! - I won't.

- Why not? - I'm kidding.

Here.

I...

kind of hear it.

That Yorushika song that day.

Okay.
