You are going to catch a cold

Come back to bed

Come over here...

That's the big deal!

Look at your face!

What face should I have?

Wasn't it good?

That's not true

Bland way of saying it.

Is not the case?

Not really, the physiology is in the first place

It's different, the physiology is in the first place

Men´s sex

Is really weak, simple and small compared with women

It wasn´t that small.

It ’s different, that´s what I´m talking about.

It hurts...

Did it hurt?

I'm sorry

I'm sure it's near

Right

I hate you

Because without it, I´m in trouble

Huh, it's a problem

It hurts...

Have you ever been pregnant?

Ah

Hmmm, I have to go home soon

Can you make it in time for the train?

Somehow...

Why don´t you stay overnight?

That´s not a bad idea either.

Then do it

I go home.

From here you can go to the office, It´s the same outfit

Oh, really?

Good evening.

Don't you remember me?

I´m Taniguchi.

Mr. Taniguchi?

Yes, Taniguchi from Jacks.

You came to our store to see our Wagen

Oh, that second-hand shop

It ’s a used car. It´s a terrible shop.

I´ll be on my way

Don´t worry, I´ll take you

Don´t worry, I live just around the corner Goodnight

Good Night...

Bitch!

I´m glad.

Hello, Hello, Can you hear me?

Yes…

・ Hello, what's wrong with that voice?

・ Hey, Michiko, right?

Yes…

What´s wrong? Did you come back now?

That's right

That's strange

What?

You should have already returned, What were you doing until this late?

What happened? What happened?

There´s something strange in the way you breath

It´s nothing

Something happened, isn´t it?

-I'm going to hang up the phone -I´m going there right away

Stop it...

It´s nothing...

Doesn´t sound like if it´s nothing... From now on...

Good night

Turn off the light.

What the hell happened?

It's nothing, so go home

Isn't it nothing?

What is this wound... eh?

I fell down the stairs

Stop lying

Not lying

You got injured here too?

It´s nothing, just go back home.

I´m asking you what happened

I slipped on the stairs...

Be honest, tell me what happened

I won't be able to go home if you don´t tell me

You really slipped on the stairs?

I´m just asking for the truth

I'll tell you

I was raped

I was raped

raped?

The way back from the station

A second-hand shop salesman, who I went to see a car with you

Under the highway, in a vacant lot over there

I resisted but I was beaten

You said... a man's sex is weak

But he was strong

Would you like to go home alone?

You´ll burn your finger.

Let's forget about this.

Forget even if you can't forget

I wish I could forget it

At least is better than being killed, You didn´t get seriously injured

Can you forget so easily?

As I was forgotten

I'm okay with that

Is different I got trapped in muddy waters

Is the right thing to do

Is not the right thing

Morning already

Time to work, you should go home

What are you going to do?

That´s not the case

It's an important job so I need to finish it by noon

I'll come again at night, so come back as soon as possible

Sleep even a little

sleep?

-Here -Thanks

I said I you did something like some sunglasses

You did something quite flashy The guys were making a noise right away

I must encourage all of you to work hard

Yes

-Give it to me -Yes

Feeling sick?

It´s nothing

Let's drink again soon

Hey, If there is a sun in this photo.

I think it's strong, but the visual shock

-I saw it earlier... - Ueda! Phone"

Wait a minute

Do you want to attach this?

What about this?

Sorry, are you at work? It´s me.

Yes? There´s something wrong?

Sorry for calling you...

So suddenly

·Where are you now

Are you in a meeting?

Yeah, I'll call you later

・ It will take you long?

I don´t know how long.

I'll be waiting, but I feel relieved to hear your voice

Yeah, be careful

Hello?

Hello?

Hello, mom?

Yeah... fine

Um... Have you decided on the setup for Yunko´s ceremony?

Of course I´ll go

What about grandma? Did she got a cold?

Yeah... yes

I´ll call you later.

Hello?

Police... There´s something wrong?

I...

I was raped

・ Really?

Please, tell me your name and address first

I borrowed that one from Tezuka

It's a little difficult to drive

It ’s okay, don´t be scared

Police!?

Why did you call?

I was scared

Police will stood up for me

You told them what happened last night?

I was told to go to the police from now on...

I thought after meeting Mr. Ueda...

I'm here

So you are decided to go to the police

I do not understand

I told you to forget

Even if it´s the best thing to do...

Then let it go...

The trial will be painful.

What is your gain in all this?

No...

What's wrong

what?

You got a scary face

That's not true

I doubt it.

I won't be fooled by such a man I´m a woman who falls easy

Stop

I am

If I quit, I like men, but...

Stop it!

You still have doubts

I have no doubts, I´ll keep fighting

Did you get angry?

No

Yes?

No

It's an angry voice

Hey, can you send it to Tokyo?

Why? Are you taking a break from the company?

Yeah. I already called them.

Why, then?

I have to go to the police

I have to prove it...

As I said before Rape is a crime difficult to prove

There is nothing in the case unless... the victim files a complaint

In your case, there are injuries that prove it

When that happens, it's called rape injuries.

I can file a case,

but regardless of the complaint... Its been two days, right?

I was asked to write a complaint, so for the time being

I'm going to get a record from now on, but...

Please get a medical certificate, then go to the hospital right away

to the hospital?

Of course, we need to check if besides the external injuries...

There´s internal injuries

Miss Yahagi, I know that It´s really embarrasing

What if you have a venereal disease?

I don´t think he used a condom

I'm afraid that he may get you pregnant

I think it's okay

Did you have sex after the incident?

Did you have sex with a man?

Yes

Did he use a condom?

Please answer, It ’s important.

Did he use it or not?

No

If the criminal had a venea Your man will have it too

What she should do? Go to the hospital first?

No, after taking the record

Please answer in as much detail as possible Then I will take a record

The incident happened late at night...

Yes.

At what time you left the company?

Around 7

Around 7

I'll send it to the police later For detailed appraisal

Thanks.

Actually, even if semen is detected...

I don't think it will be useful

Because it's mixed

The blood test it takes about a week

please come again at that time

Yes.

We couldn´t find that blouse button that was on the record

Well, look for a little more

It was Mr. Yahagi who torn it off and threw it away, right?

Let´s take this one, please

It´s too expensive

-Please, buy it

It´s expensive

Take a picture while you decide

Let´s go

Excuse me, please, appear in the picture with me.

Cheese

Here...

This one will be moved

Hi?

Michi, is for you Pick it up there

Will it be wide?

Sorry, if you´ll excuse me Yeah

I think is a bit awkward for a teenage woman

Yeah, could be better

I´ll do it later

Even Mr. Akiyama is crazy about dark blue...

What´s happening with Yahagi lately?

I wonder if he and her aren't doing well.

Tanaka, Have you heard anything?

Me? I have nothing to do

She´s your staff, you must be related

No, Mr. Akiyama, are you?

For over a year

What kind of relation?

You think too much

Let´s go, let´s go

Excuse me, just call me at work

Because I'm in a hurry to identify the suspect.

You had a hard time, I want you to tell me who´s the culprit who raped you

Which one?

This is him, is this man

No doubt, right?

Bye

Bye

Akira Taniguchi, right?

Yeah, why?

Could you come to the with us?

Why?

Do You know Miss Michiko Yahagi?

She was raped by you

Don't you remember? I'm saying

Rape? that´s a lie

We bring an arrest warrant, you got to come with us?

Arrest warrant!?

What do you want?

Water, please

Can't stop

It will be rough

Yeah

I picked it up there that morning

Did you go!?

I hate it

No. 4, No. 5, No. 6

No. 7, No. 8

Michiko Yahagi's Statement, Medical Certificate

Akira Taniguchi's

Statement of Indictment

Criminal record pocedure

He tied her hands with a belt, making her resistance very difficult

Forcing her against her will

Due the assault on her chest and abdomen, she

sustained bruises that took one week to treat

Furthermore, on her both fronts and on her knees...

There was scratches that needed one week of treatment

That ’s all for the by the prosecution

Please, that the defendant takes the stand

Yes

If there´s something you want to say, you have the right to do it

But if there´s something you want to say You can say it.

Everything you might say, must be use as a proof

Now, do you admit the facts read by the prosecution?

I do not admit

If you don´t admit it, then what happened?

Well...

What that woman said I did, is ridiculous

Do you have something to say, Attorney?

Eh ~ As a lawyer...

My opinion on this case,

Conflict the facts of prosecution

Please, defendant, return to your seat

Yes

So after all, you got into the car, right?

No

Why not?

Didn´t he politely invited you?

Yes, but I was next to my house.

I see.

And I don´t usually get into a car of a man that I don´t know

This Taniguchi is...

Didn't threaten you with killing you?

Yes

He also showed you a knife? Asking you to demand his request?

Yes

So when you got your sexual intercourse...

Did you have your eyes opened all the time?

Were you still against your will?

I was against my will

I´d like to know, how you felt at that time

How did you feel? did you enjoy?

Objection!

Objection dismissed. Continue, Attorney

How about this?

Maybe you didn´t like it at first

That´s nonsense

Isn't it like that?

I have your medical certificate.

It says that chest and abdomen was bruised for about a week

There is no mention that the vagina was torn

The love juice didn´t come out?

Objection!

Don't be misled, please, change your method of interrogation

Okkay, let´s change the question

You were panties, right?

Yes

It looks like it was taken off.

Was it taken off at once?

It was taken off at once

When a woman resists...

To panty to be taken off at once should not be easy...

I think that...

Maybe at that time, you lifted your hips, making it easier for him

I did´t do that!

You were conscious at that time

Is probably that Taniguchi didn´t act against your will

What?! Wait a minute!

What are you insinuating?! What do you want to hear?

Calm down

Only Tanigaki and you were there. I wasn´t

I´m a defendant attorney, is my duty to ask

But is true that I was raped!

I want to go home

You can´t runaway now

At the time of the main question, of the current prosecutor

Witnesses refer to a button...

That was picked up from the scene

I´m asking you, is that true?

Yeah, I picked it up

What did you go for

There´s no reason

There´s a vacant lot on the way back to the station

So, somehow, you just went to the scene

Yes...

But that place...

There´s a lot of fallen leaves

How can you find a missing button in such a place?

A small button

It was shining in the fallen leaves

Didn't you bring it from your home?

Objection! It is an induction

How to know it?

Please, go on with the interrogation

I'll ask you another question.

You and Michiko met each other about a year and a half ago

Yes

How did you met each other?

She works for an advertising company

I also work for an advertising agency

We met in a cocktail party

I see

So then, how long until you two started dating?

Around 2 weeks

Two weeks?

Did you have sex on your first date?

Objection!

Not directly related to this case

Please, continue...

Please answer my question

You had sex on the first night?

Yes...

Was Michiko a virgin?

Objection!

Whether she was a virgin or not

Is not related with this case

Please, continue...

As a lawyer, I think is very important to this case

Her lifestyle, what kind of sexual behaviour she has

Objection rejected

Witness, Please answer

I´m not sure, I don´t think she was a virgin

But that´s not important!!!

You are Michiko´s last lover, Have you heard about a man named Saburo Takagi?

Objection! That question is out of the range of this interrogation

What is the opinion of the defense?

That man named Takagi is important in this matter.

Let´s call it for today There´ll be another chance

That lawyer named Kurose is a strange one

He´s not only defending his client

It seems that he has a grudge against the whole women

wanna drink some tea?

Ueda, don´t you have work to do?

It's okay to be a little late

No, even though it's not an importank work

It ’s okay, you don´t have to be nice

Is not like that...

Is okay, I just want some fresh air

Yeah.

So are you okay?

Yes, I´am

I´ll be home around 9 o'clock tonight

Ah, driver

I´m sorry, but can you come back?

Go around the park

No change

I don´t like him

I don't want to go home

What did you do?

It hurts

With such a middle-aged guy!

Why did you do that?

Eh?!

Why?!

Whore!

Oh, mom

Oh, Michiko, I was worried

Sorry, I overslept

Junko and the others? They´re coming

Grandma

Yeah, sorry how are you? I was late

Wow

Sister

Congratulations, you so beautiful

Thank you

Thanks for coming

Congratulations

The plane will come out soon What are you waiting for?

I have to change my clothes

Michiko

Good luck, Good luck

Be careful

Thank you everyone

This is for you, mom

What is it?

Wait a second, Michiko

What is this?

It's not suspicious money

I can't accept it

Don't say that

It´s weird...

Why?

Didn't something happen?

There is nothing

Really?

I hope so...

Why you stare at me like that?

Because is so weird

What are you talking about

I feel sick

Are you still awake? Michiko

Yeah I'm going to sleep

I gently kissed her and she became quiet

Immediately, then

At first she was fluttering...

I put my hand under her skirt and played a little bit,

she opened her legs and became quiet

Then she...

She wanted to breathe some fresh air and got out of the car

There was a vacant lot and she invited me there

At that time, we saw the lights of a car approaching

She said she can be seen, and crouched on the spot

It's a lie!

Please, listen quiet

Then what happened? You put your hands under her skirt?

Yes

I tried to take her panties off

And she lifted her hips to make it easier for me

I got on top and took my pants off

She´s a woman after all

She was all wet

That´s not rape!

This is a statement by you

This is your declaration to the prosecutor

You declared it and signed?

That's right

According to this statement...

You admit the fact of rape

Saying, the exact opposite that you are declaring on court

Which one is true?

But...

Be honest

The prosecutor of the interrogation at that time

Said I could get out early

I told him I wouldn't escape

I signed it because I wanted to get out early.

I also have a wife and children. That was all a lie

Let´s pretend the prosecutor really said that

Though, I don´t believe it. Well, that aside...

According to Michiko´s medical certificate

Her chest and abdomen were bruised for over a week

When you have sex with a woman?

Do you take away their resistance by hurting them?

No, not at all

I don't remember hitting Yahagi's belly

Maybe she hit herself in the car, avoiding the headlights

Even if you say so...

Is not weird having sex with a woman who has hurted her knees?

Can you say that she agreed?

I didn't see she was hurted

But she was hurt for over a week, because of you

That woman used her waist while doing it

Then...

Do you remember The name of you Saburo Takagi?

Yes

You were lecturer, in your art class during your college days, right?

Yes

So if there was something you wanted to ask you went to Takagi´s room, right?

So that day... You two went together to having a drink

Yeah

So that night...

You had a sexual relationship with Mr. Takagi?

Didn´t Mr.Takagi had a wife and a son? Answer, please

You had sex that evening?

Why are you doing this?

Please answer the question

What´s wrong?

Mr. Takagi was my first love

That's not what I asked

I want to know if that night, you had sexual relations with Takagi

You can say it, if you like

What happened next? You got pregnant?

I got pregnant

What happened next?

I had an abortion

So you were in love for the first time, and got pregnant

But you had an abortion

By the way, were you a virgin when you started with Mr. Takagi?

I wasn´t

Before falling in love for the first time, you already had sexual experience?

With Mr. Takagi and Mr. Ueda

You had a sexual relationship

Also with Taniguchi, who´s here

To whom you also, met for the first time

Isn't there a possibility that there was an agreement?

Judge!

What are you saying?

It´s completely different

You are so wrong!

You are wrong!!!

Mr. Takagi!

What?!

I wanna die like this!

I can´t hear you!

I just want to die!

Okay, let's die!

Painful?

I thought I'd kill you

Why not?

Kill me!

Mr. Takagi, are you here?

Yes!

A call for you!

I have to go back

Work?

No

What happened?

Your wife?

Yes

I shouldn´t ask

She stabbed her neck with some scissors

Wait!

Sorry for this messed up birthday

Is okay not to be happy

Can you see in that desk? There´s a present

Did you buy it? In a time like this?

I´m not sure whether you like it the colour

Thank you, it's a nice color

Really? Will you wear it?

Of course

Suits fine

Yes

I was silent about Mr. Takagi, I didn't mean it to hide

I know

But you care about it

I don´t care at all

I'm not interested in your old lover

I also lived many things in the past

I see

Don't stick to it forever

Then why?

Why aren´t you a bit kinder?

Sitting there, just observing me

Why do you think so?

It´s the same as usual

Then come here

I was surprised, suddenly wanting a long vacation

Is it wrong?

No, it´s not

I just knew about your trial

From somebody who told me

Noone else knows, and I didn´t say to anyone

It doesn't matter if everyone knows it

I think it's hard

Why don´t you think it over?

We are a team, but you´re gone now

That could be a big problem for me But is not the case

Because I manage to cover my work

I think it's better I don't have a closed basket

But it bothers everyone

What are you talking about?

I'll cover my work somehow

If you break the relationship with your colleagues, you´ll feel alone

You would be falling into a dangerous defeatism, understand?

Yes

Ok, so the long vacation request is cancelled

I wish I could contacted you the day before... But I had to take a rest

Work continues

Thank you

Didn't you understand? I fell in love with you

Here

Thank you

Here, for you. Happy birthday

Was yesterday, right?

Thank you, I completely forgot

You´re welcome

Kazu-chan Yes?

Are you free tonight?

Yes.

Let's go drink

Yes!

As soon as a woman gives birth all animal act the same

Humans are similar

This man...

Is obsessed with his job

He can't help it

And he finds a beautiful woman like you

The are so many like this

Can I smoke a little bit?

Oh, yes

But is it wrong?

He can´t be alone! You see?

She´s already a woman

and there´s nothing younger than a mature man

Invited by a mature middle-aged man

Doesn´t sound bad, isn´t it?

So in other words..

What about going to bed with me tonight?

Wait a little

Isn't there a better way to persuade?

So in other words... When a man and a woman...

Excuse me, just excuse me

What?

Are you going home already?

Bastard!

What are you doing?

What are you doing?

Stop it!

Come on, come on, what's wrong with you?

Here...

Let's dance

It's been a long time, Mr. Yahagi

This young lady has become beautiful

You´re the one who's pretty

Hey, hey, what's going on?

You don´t understand? This a woman´s fight

Take your time Thanks

Is it painful? Huh?

Poor girl, being hurt by evil men

Was it wrong to call at the company?

I'm excited

That Kurose lawyer...

I hate him

I know that guy...

what's happened

I understand your fellings

Is ironically that was that guy

that's why…

It´s a bad deal

How... how did he find out?

He knew even the case of my wife

How is she?

She can´t speak

Sorry

When will the trial end?

I don't know

He will do whatever he can

You started

That big guy made me start

Wasn´t me, "bitch"

If you win the trial...

What´s your gain?

Eh?

Eh?

I´m tired of listening that question

From people or from yourself?

Do you still ride a motorcycle?

Of course

Back then, you really wanted to die?

That was long ago

No, no

You got to answer

Of course that I didn´t feel like dying

I'm worried by mom

Don´t worry

She wants to see your face because you haven´t returned for awhile

That's fine

When is the final statement from the prosecutor?

The 7th

I´ll be back the sixth

Tomorrow at eight O´clock in the morning

Yes

I have to go early to sleep tonight

Don´t you stay with me tonight?

I´m going home

Why?

Why?

I don´t like this

Stop it, stop it

stop!

Stop!

Why!

I do not understand

How a man can go through rape?

I didn't stand up

If you stop the resistance as you did now

Would be another story

So... So what?

You´re right, A woman is forced when doesn´t enjoy

I don't know, a man who goes through rape until the end

That´s something different

You didn't trust me at all

I trust you!

Why are you that annoying today?

Did you sleep with Takagi?

With Mr. Takagi?

Didn´t you meet your old lover Takagi?

I did.

I called you, but you weren´t there

He stayed with me until morning

So you slept with that guy again

I didn´t

Don´t lie

I´m not lying

Isn't that more unnatural? Why didn't you sleep?

You meet again for the first time in a long time

And you want me to believe that he stayed

with you until the morning not doing nothing?

I just wanted to sleep

But I didn´t

Did you want to sleep?

Sleep with that old man again?

Is he the same with that Taniguchi?

On New Year...

I liked your smile while I was skiing

I liked you

But it's all over

"If a woman seriously resists, rape is impossible"

"Women also have the desire for rape"

The defendant, taking advantage of this social stigma

Doesn´t show any signs of remorse

Furthermore, the victim of this crime suffered

Physically and mentally damage hard to heal...

Considering various other circumstances...

Prosecutors, after applying the equivalent law

We asked for the Defendant, to be sentenced to five years of prison

I would like to hear the defense counsel's argument

Then...

I will submit a summary of the argument, but I will submit it later.

Eh ~ The defense counsel is...

Acquittal

It's a peculiar case.

At first glance

There is a fact, but it seems that it corresponds to rape

The victim, in this sexual intercourse, should be consider an agreement

While showing specific facts, or less Publicly, I will show you the reasons

Mr. Kurose

I made you study a lot

Ah, Yahagi

I'm sorry

Please... excuse me for what my son did to you

Don´t worry

It´s okay

I didn't make it in time

You're busy

I'm glad you didn't bother to come

How many years did the prosecutor seek?

5 years

5 years They came out short

To pay for what he did to a woman, is not a long time?

Don't you think so? Mr. Ueda

Hey, hey

I have to go to work. What about you, Mr.Ueda?

Do you have time to drink tea?

I got a lot of work

I see

How are you?

Hey you

I'm sorry for the other day

I didn't mean to say that

It´s okay

Having an incident like this, was really unfortunate, don´t you think?

I think so

Everything was working fine between us until all this happened
