1
00:00:02,068 --> 00:00:05,003
I don't want to go to Osaka.

2
00:00:07,106 --> 00:00:09,574
But we have to go, don't we?

3
00:00:12,144 --> 00:00:13,612
What should we do?

4
00:00:15,281 --> 00:00:19,251
But there's nothing we
can do, is there?

5
00:00:21,053 --> 00:00:22,254
Sis.

6
00:00:40,306 --> 00:00:43,842
This was the first time Asa
saw her older sister cry.

7
00:00:46,245 --> 00:00:49,047
KYOTO 1861 (FIRST YEAR OF BUNKYU)

8
00:00:56,656 --> 00:00:58,256
I cried too much.

9
00:00:58,257 --> 00:01:00,458
My eyes won't open.

10
00:01:05,965 --> 00:01:07,232
Sis?

11
00:01:10,403 --> 00:01:11,503
Sis!

12
00:01:12,605 --> 00:01:14,539
Are you okay, Sis?

13
00:01:15,908 --> 00:01:17,275
Good morning, Asa.

14
00:01:18,444 --> 00:01:20,378
You were crying so
hard yesterday.

15
00:01:21,781 --> 00:01:23,181
Are you okay now?

16
00:01:25,718 --> 00:01:27,185
What are you talking about?

17
00:01:28,020 --> 00:01:29,254
Good morning, Asa.

18
00:01:36,429 --> 00:01:38,029
Haru, get ready.

19
00:01:36,429 --> 00:01:38,029
Hatsu... Shall I take that?

20
00:01:38,030 --> 00:01:39,431
Thank you.

21
00:01:42,401 --> 00:01:43,668
Looks delicious.

22
00:01:46,207 --> 00:01:51,141

36
00:03:21,333 --> 00:03:22,500
Mom...

37
00:03:24,670 --> 00:03:26,471
What's wrong, Asa?

38
00:03:26,472 --> 00:03:28,873
You look so serious.

39
00:03:31,477 --> 00:03:34,079
Mom... Can you do
something so Sis

40
00:03:34,080 --> 00:03:37,749
and I won't have to got
married and o to Osaka?

41
00:03:40,019 --> 00:03:42,754
I know it's important for
the sake of our family.

42
00:03:42,755 --> 00:03:44,255
But...

43
00:03:45,791 --> 00:03:49,694
Why? Did you hate
Osaka that much?

44
00:03:49,729 --> 00:03:51,362
No... That's not it.

45
00:03:52,164 --> 00:03:55,400
After seeing it, Osaka's full
of activity, so I really liked it.

46
00:03:55,401 --> 00:03:58,803
You did? Then why?

47
00:04:00,840 --> 00:04:02,073
I...

48
00:04:04,944 --> 00:04:07,278
...want to choose my own
path in life myself.

49
00:04:09,548 --> 00:04:11,015
So does Hatsu.

50
00:04:11,784 --> 00:04:15,186
She's afraid of going to
Osaka for the sake of the family.

51
00:04:15,187 --> 00:04:21,359
You saw how hard Sis was
crying last night, didn't you, Mom?

52
00:04:22,461 --> 00:04:27,665
But Hatsu told me
it was nothing.

53
00:04:27,666 --> 00:04:29,634
She's just trying
to bear with it.

54
00:04:30,536 --> 00:04:32,070
Unlike me, she's kindhearted...

55
00:04:33,305 --> 00:04:37,142
She's just been holding
it all in all this time.

56
00:04:38,944 --> 00:04:46,151
I don't think Shinjiro wants
a tomboy like me for a wife.

57
00:04:47,386 --> 00:04:49,020
No one's happy about it.

58
00:04:51,123 --> 00:04:53,091
What should I do?

59
00:04:55,461 --> 00:04:56,628
Asa!

60
00:04:57,596 --> 00:04:59,397
That's right...

61
00:05:01,767 --> 00:05:03,835
I want to learn, after all.

62
00:05:04,570 --> 00:05:06,738
Learn?

63
00:05:06,739 --> 00:05:10,975
Instead of getting married,
I want to learn like Kyutaro.

64
00:05:10,976 --> 00:05:12,977
Then I'll be able to
find my own path...

65
00:05:12,978 --> 00:05:14,679
Asa!

66
00:05:16,415 --> 00:05:20,318
Don't ever say that in
front of your father.

67
00:05:23,422 --> 00:05:26,524
Women don't need to learn...

68
00:05:29,829 --> 00:05:33,131
Women are shallow thinkers,
and they only end up

69
00:05:33,132 --> 00:05:35,366
making mistakes when
they try to think.

70
00:05:35,367 --> 00:05:39,037
A woman doesn't have to
worry about doing business

71
00:05:39,038 --> 00:05:44,475
or about the world...
It's best to just get married.

72
00:05:52,318 --> 00:05:53,785
It's the same for everyone.

73
00:05:55,554 --> 00:05:58,723
Even for me.. That's how
I came to marry your

74
00:05:58,724 --> 00:06:03,628
father and Hatsu was born,
then you were born, so

75
00:06:03,629 --> 00:06:09,334
I think I did something important
for the sake of the family.

76
00:06:11,737 --> 00:06:15,807
So stop worrying about
things unnecessarily.

77
00:06:20,379 --> 00:06:25,650
I'll talk to Hatsu again.

78
00:06:31,724 --> 00:06:38,463
Her mother, Rie realized that Asa
didn't agree with what she had told her.

79
00:06:43,869 --> 00:06:46,037
Hey! Hey!

80
00:06:47,206 --> 00:06:50,441
Isn't anyone home today?

81
00:06:50,442 --> 00:06:52,543
I couldn't find her anywhere.

82
00:06:53,779 --> 00:06:55,480
That can't be! Did you
really look for her?

83
00:06:55,481 --> 00:06:58,082
I tried all the places where
Miss Asa would go...

84
00:06:58,083 --> 00:06:59,384
Never mind!

85
00:06:59,385 --> 00:07:01,953
I'm sorry! Miss Asa said her
stomach hurt, so I thought

86
00:07:01,954 --> 00:07:03,588
she was sleeping
all this time.

87
00:07:05,024 --> 00:07:08,259
She used the ninja art of
substituting her body.

88
00:07:10,596 --> 00:07:11,696
Asa...

89
00:07:11,697 --> 00:07:13,631
I have to give her credit.

90
00:07:16,135 --> 00:07:19,003
What am I going to do?
It's my fault.

91
00:07:19,805 --> 00:07:22,807
I didn't explain it
to Asa very well.

92
00:07:22,808 --> 00:07:24,842
Mistress.

93
00:07:28,013 --> 00:07:30,014
I just saw Asa...

94
00:07:31,083 --> 00:07:32,083
Father!

95
00:07:32,084 --> 00:07:33,685
I saw her.

96
00:07:51,570 --> 00:07:52,837
You fool!

97
00:07:54,406 --> 00:07:55,573
What are you thinking?

98
00:07:56,709 --> 00:07:59,777
The daughter of the Imai family
taking lessons at the temple school!

99
00:07:59,812 --> 00:08:02,046
Haven't you brought enough
shame to our family as it is?

100
00:08:04,083 --> 00:08:05,516
You won't get any
meals today.

101
00:08:05,517 --> 00:08:06,951
Reflect on what you did!

102
00:08:09,321 --> 00:08:10,221
Why?

103
00:08:16,061 --> 00:08:18,096
Why is learning so shameful?

104
00:08:18,130 --> 00:08:19,897
Stop it, Asa.

105
00:08:19,898 --> 00:08:24,268
Kyutaro and all the other boys
here at the Imai family are learning.

106
00:08:24,269 --> 00:08:28,072
Learning isn't anything
to be ashamed of.

107
00:08:28,073 --> 00:08:31,409
Just because I'm a girl!

108
00:08:31,410 --> 00:08:33,378
Why am I forbidden to learn?

109
00:08:34,513 --> 00:08:38,783
There are a lot of things that boys
do that are better off being done by girls.

110
00:08:41,820 --> 00:08:43,621
It's the same thing
with marriage.

111
00:08:44,423 --> 00:08:46,991
Instead of having our parents
decide who they want

112
00:08:46,992 --> 00:08:50,028
to give us to, maybe we...

113
00:08:55,334 --> 00:09:00,671
Girls want to think for themselves
and decide what path we want to take.

114
00:09:02,841 --> 00:09:09,347
I just want Sis and
me to be happy.

115
00:09:12,584 --> 00:09:13,751
Asa!

116
00:09:15,220 --> 00:09:16,954
You're...!

117
00:09:30,035 --> 00:09:31,102
Hello...

118
00:09:31,870 --> 00:09:33,371
Shinjiro from Kano-ya...

119
00:09:34,306 --> 00:09:39,075
Asa came to visit me, but I had
something I had to do, so I left...

120
00:09:39,306 --> 00:09:41,075
I just wanted to see her.

121
00:09:41,180 --> 00:09:43,214
You came all the way from
Osaka just for that?

122
00:09:43,215 --> 00:09:46,484
Asa's over there...

123
00:09:56,295 --> 00:09:58,229
Is this Asa's room?

124
00:09:59,264 --> 00:10:00,131
Shinjiro...

125
00:10:00,165 --> 00:10:02,166
Don't be ridiculous!
That's a closet.

126
00:10:02,968 --> 00:10:05,169
I don't want to get married.

127
00:10:11,243 --> 00:10:15,313
Even if you make me cool off here,
I won't do what I don't want to.

128
00:10:15,314 --> 00:10:16,614
I'm not going to Osaka.

129
00:10:23,021 --> 00:10:24,489
I'm so sorry!

130
00:10:25,390 --> 00:10:27,792
She really hates me,
doesn't she?

131
00:10:39,571 --> 00:10:46,077
I'm surprised you stood up to Dad,
and told him all that I surprised myself.

132
00:10:46,078 --> 00:10:48,012
Don't talk with your mouth full...

133
00:10:51,116 --> 00:10:52,383
Thank you.

134
00:10:53,785 --> 00:11:00,424
But Dad's always
thinking of us.

135
00:11:03,362 --> 00:11:06,464
On the night when we
came back from Osaka...

136
00:11:06,465 --> 00:11:13,271
Sanouji-ya's young master's
jiggling his knees was really terrible...

137
00:11:15,307 --> 00:11:17,408
A rich man constantly
jiggling his knees

138
00:11:17,409 --> 00:11:19,377
and he doesn't smile at all...

139
00:11:19,378 --> 00:11:21,078
His mother is too forward.

140
00:11:22,614 --> 00:11:27,151
And Kano-ya's son doesn't do any work,
and goes off to play the shamisen.

141
00:11:29,154 --> 00:11:31,355
I thought he went to
Osaka to work, but

142
00:11:31,356 --> 00:11:34,892
he was only worried about the
families we were going to marry into.

143
00:11:34,893 --> 00:11:36,394
Mom was laughing.

144
00:11:38,030 --> 00:11:40,431
Dad really notices little
things, doesn't he?

145
00:11:41,266 --> 00:11:45,636
That's why I'm going to take
the path that Dad chose for me.

146
00:11:47,506 --> 00:11:49,574
You are? But I...

147
00:12:05,090 --> 00:12:06,591
He heard everything.

148
00:12:12,297 --> 00:12:13,631
Sis!

149
00:12:32,184 --> 00:12:33,351
Hello.

150
00:12:35,454 --> 00:12:38,222
I'm sorry if I overstepped
my bounds...

151
00:12:39,157 --> 00:12:43,694
But I really don't know if I should
get married the way I am now.

152
00:12:44,596 --> 00:12:46,797
I see... I guess you're right.

153
00:12:49,101 --> 00:12:52,770
You can't decide something so
important while you're still a child...

154
00:12:54,773 --> 00:13:00,344
Don't worry... If you decide you don't
want to get married, you don't have to.

155
00:13:03,181 --> 00:13:04,782
You do as you please.

156
00:13:06,385 --> 00:13:07,518
But...

157
00:13:07,519 --> 00:13:09,520
Think about it carefully...

158
00:13:10,555 --> 00:13:13,190
When you choose a path
that you've thought

159
00:13:13,191 --> 00:13:16,460
about carefully, a new
morning is sure to come.

160
00:13:18,297 --> 00:13:19,630
A new morning?

161
00:13:19,631 --> 00:13:23,634
That's right. Believe in
that path and take it.

162
00:13:27,272 --> 00:13:28,372
Also...

163
00:13:32,044 --> 00:13:33,010
Here...

164
00:13:34,579 --> 00:13:37,548
It's the click-click thing.

165
00:13:43,588 --> 00:13:45,923
That's right. Try shaking it.

166
00:13:47,592 --> 00:13:48,492
Is it okay?

167
00:13:52,397 --> 00:13:53,497
What a nice sound.

168
00:13:55,701 --> 00:13:57,234
You look good, too.

169
00:14:02,107 --> 00:14:06,043
Take your time and think
about it until you're all grown up.

170
00:14:06,044 --> 00:14:09,747
Just keep thinking about
it, and if you decide you

171
00:14:09,748 --> 00:14:14,985
want to be my wife, then
let's get along together.

172
00:14:46,017 --> 00:14:52,423
From this time, Asa felt something
start to change in her heart.
