Eh? Who is?

39
00:01:17,820 --> 00:01:19,290
Dead.

40
00:01:20,130 --> 00:01:23,450
Like I said, who is it? Who is it that's died?

41
00:01:26,450 --> 00:01:29,390
This person who had died...

42
00:01:30,250 --> 00:01:33,880
...I found out who it was one week later.

43
00:01:33,880 --> 00:01:35,800
That's what happened to me.

44
00:01:35,800 --> 00:01:38,740
I was harshly told that at first as well.

45
00:01:38,740 --> 00:01:40,140
Really?

46
00:01:39,330 --> 00:01:40,140
Yeah.

47
00:01:40,140 --> 00:01:42,740
"Shinsaibashi is the Bridge of Worries."

48
00:01:40,140 --> 00:01:44,020
Shinsaibashi = "Shinsai Bridge"; Shinpaibashi = "Bridge of Worries"

49
00:01:42,740 --> 00:01:48,850
"This is a harsh town and while I don't know what you hicks from Kishiwada are like..."

50
00:01:48,850 --> 00:01:51,700
"...but you'd better give it your best effort!" they told me.

51
00:01:51,700 --> 00:01:54,900
Well... That'd piss me off!

52
00:01:52,370 --> 00:01:54,900
Right?

53
00:01:54,900 --> 00:01:57,820
I can't forget that man's face even now.

54
00:01:58,610 --> 00:02:03,050
Well, even so, as parents we should be telling them what's best.

55
00:02:03,050 --> 00:02:05,230
Kitamura-san told me this.

56
00:02:05,230 --> 00:02:06,720
That's it, that's it!

57
00:02:06,720 --> 00:02:08,730
He should become a Mom!

58
00:02:07,670 --> 00:02:08,730
Right!

61

So long! See you again!

62
00:02:14,320 --> 00:02:16,790
Yūko-chan, want to go get something to eat?

63
00:02:16,790 --> 00:02:18,860
Let's go!

64
00:02:19,250 --> 00:02:21,180
Um... Union President.

65
00:02:20,330 --> 00:02:21,180
Huh?

66
00:02:21,870 --> 00:02:23,620
Has someone died?

67
00:02:24,350 --> 00:02:25,470
Eh?

68
00:02:25,840 --> 00:02:27,900
Who is it that's passed away?

69
00:02:28,240 --> 00:02:29,210
Oh?

70
00:02:29,820 --> 00:02:31,540
Have you heard something?

71
00:02:31,540 --> 00:02:35,540
Yeah. Well, Kitamura seemed to be...

72
00:02:35,860 --> 00:02:38,430
...on his way back from a funeral the other day...

73
00:02:38,430 --> 00:02:41,530
...and, while stinking drunk, he said, "They're dead."

74
00:02:41,530 --> 00:02:44,780
And then, without saying who it was that had died, he left.

75
00:02:44,880 --> 00:02:46,950
What was he doing...

76
00:02:46,950 --> 00:02:49,340
It was a really troubling talk.

77
00:02:49,670 --> 00:02:54,050
Ah, I really am sorry about that!

78
00:02:53,250 --> 00:02:54,050
Eh?

79
00:02:54,050 --> 00:02:56,440
Well, no, uh...

80
00:02:56,580 --> 00:03:02,040
Even though I had already told him it was my duty, Kitamura insisted and said...

81
00:03:02,040 --> 00:03:07,090
..."I have to tell her about it from my own mouth alone."

82
00:03:07,090 --> 00:03:09,500
That fool, geez!

83
00:03:09,890 --> 00:03:13,240
Now you don't know anything!

84
00:03:15,180 --> 00:03:16,640
Who was it?

85
00:03:18,220 --> 00:03:19,380
Yeah...

86
00:03:19,980 --> 00:03:22,010
It was...

87
00:03:22,680 --> 00:03:24,800
...Suo's wife.

88
00:03:29,380 --> 00:03:30,690
I see.

89
00:03:38,840 --> 00:03:41,320
Since he...

90
00:03:42,340 --> 00:03:45,610
...finished paying off the loan to me the year before last...

91
00:03:45,610 --> 00:03:48,200
...I haven't heard anything about them.

92
00:03:50,420 --> 00:03:51,860
Is that right...

93
00:03:53,450 --> 00:03:56,150
I didn't know about that.

94
00:04:01,420 --> 00:04:03,170
Ah, even so...

95
00:04:03,600 --> 00:04:08,170
...I wonder why Kitamura couldn't have told me that?

96
00:04:09,110 --> 00:04:10,390
Eh?

97
00:04:12,600 --> 00:04:14,360
You don't know?

98
00:04:14,780 --> 00:04:16,020
Huh?

99
00:04:38,670 --> 00:04:41,450
I would recall that time over and over again.

100
00:04:46,760 --> 00:04:49,090
Longer than the time we had been together...

101
00:04:49,390 --> 00:04:53,510
...the times I would remember had become far longer.

102
00:04:53,960 --> 00:04:56,110
Strange partner...

103
00:05:40,940 --> 00:05:43,240
I'm opening it.

104
00:05:41,960 --> 00:05:43,240
Yes.

105
00:05:45,650 --> 00:05:47,100
Ah!

106
00:05:47,770 --> 00:05:49,160
Say...

107
00:05:48,460 --> 00:05:49,160
Huh?

108
00:05:49,160 --> 00:05:52,300
Is this really good?

109
00:05:51,220 --> 00:05:52,300
Umm!

110
00:05:52,740 --> 00:05:55,620
Because of this design here...

111
00:05:55,620 --> 00:05:58,500
...you look really good in it.

112
00:05:58,500 --> 00:05:59,770
It's not weird?

113
00:05:59,770 --> 00:06:02,980
Not at all. You look cool!

114
00:06:03,890 --> 00:06:07,110
Well, maybe I should take this.

115
00:06:07,110 --> 00:06:09,640
Really? Thank you!

116
00:06:10,360 --> 00:06:11,480
Even so...

117
00:06:11,480 --> 00:06:14,600
...this would look really good on you, too!

118
00:06:14,610 --> 00:06:19,950
Even so, I guess it'll still be long ways yet before you can turn over the signboard to Sato-chan.

119
00:06:21,430 --> 00:06:24,940
Well, the customers love her personality...

120
00:06:24,940 --> 00:06:29,970
...and both Nao-chan and Yū-chan say she has a good sense for fashion.

121
00:06:30,060 --> 00:06:34,890
Yet even so, it's essential that a Manager be a different type of vessel.

122
00:06:35,380 --> 00:06:36,700
I suppose.

123
00:06:36,700 --> 00:06:42,230
Well, my choice would be for the steadiest of the three, Yū-chan.

124
00:06:42,330 --> 00:06:45,830
And then falling below her, Sensei and then Nao-chan.

125
00:06:45,830 --> 00:06:50,790
And then, falling way below them in last place, Sato-chan.

126
00:06:51,480 --> 00:06:52,900
Hmm...

127
00:06:55,780 --> 00:06:57,090
Could she marry a guy into the family?

128
00:06:57,090 --> 00:06:58,170
Eh.

129
00:06:58,680 --> 00:07:00,660
I was just thinking that myself.

130
00:07:00,660 --> 00:07:01,810
Right?

131
00:07:01,810 --> 00:07:06,520
A smart son-in-law with a clerical or management side who could...

132
00:07:06,520 --> 00:07:07,970
...take care of all the confusing things for her.

133
00:07:07,970 --> 00:07:09,530
That would be good.

134
00:07:09,530 --> 00:07:11,860
And be a handsome man!

135
00:07:11,860 --> 00:07:14,300
Ah... That would be nice, huh!

136
00:07:15,310 --> 00:07:20,750
Well, it would be very exceptional if such son-in-law just happened to come along though.

137
00:07:21,660 --> 00:07:23,670
Even so...

138
00:07:24,410 --> 00:07:27,530
...hasn't that girl been bringing boys around from time to time?

139
00:07:28,090 --> 00:07:29,370
Itadakimasu!

140
00:07:30,730 --> 00:07:32,480
Kyaa!

141
00:07:32,980 --> 00:07:36,030
Ala, my!

142
00:07:36,390 --> 00:07:37,770
What was that?

143
00:07:37,770 --> 00:07:40,230
That was, probably...

144
00:07:40,230 --> 00:07:43,170
...Sato-chan's boyfriend at the time.

145
00:07:43,390 --> 00:07:45,510
You did great at tennis, didn't you?!

146
00:07:45,510 --> 00:07:49,180
Then there were her usual classmates.

147
00:07:53,000 --> 00:07:56,290
Then there was that one time with that boy who only came to eat a meal.

148
00:07:57,090 --> 00:07:58,490
Really?

149
00:08:00,830 --> 00:08:03,300
That girl is stupid.

150
00:08:03,300 --> 00:08:05,660
She's not going out with any of them.

151
00:08:05,660 --> 00:08:08,740
It might be hopeless to tell her, "keep a good eye out for someone to go out with," huh?

152
00:08:08,740 --> 00:08:10,030
Like that one just before!

153
00:08:10,030 --> 00:08:12,770
I was told, "Let's make a bet on..."

154
00:08:12,770 --> 00:08:16,770
"...the Father watching his daughter's wedding."

155
00:08:16,770 --> 00:08:18,380
Who won?

156
00:08:18,760 --> 00:08:21,910
"The joke is that neither of us wins!"

157
00:08:23,400 --> 00:08:25,350
What about that boy?

158
00:08:27,370 --> 00:08:30,750
Well, whatever. He's amusing.

159
00:08:41,800 --> 00:08:44,440
Ah... even so...

160
00:08:46,000 --> 00:08:49,750
What should I do about my retirement?

161
00:08:49,540 --> 00:08:52,210
Ohara Dressmaking Store

162
00:08:52,550 --> 00:08:54,870
Satoko being ready for that...

163
00:08:55,250 --> 00:08:57,850
...was still a long ways off.

164
00:09:03,520 --> 00:09:05,600
Ala? Welcome!

165
00:09:05,600 --> 00:09:07,050
Welcome back.

166
00:09:07,310 --> 00:09:08,930
You've come.

167
00:09:08,070 --> 00:09:08,930
Yeah.

168
00:09:11,540 --> 00:09:12,780
What's going on?

169
00:09:17,300 --> 00:09:19,370
Look, Ito-chan.

170
00:09:19,890 --> 00:09:21,170
Yeah.

171
00:09:22,820 --> 00:09:26,710
Recently, Mother...

172
00:09:26,710 --> 00:09:30,120
...has gotten skinnier suddenly.

173
00:09:30,120 --> 00:09:31,260
Yeah.

174
00:09:32,040 --> 00:09:35,880
I took her once to the hospital for an exam...

175
00:09:35,880 --> 00:09:39,210
...and it went fine but
I had to take her in again the other day.

176
00:09:39,540 --> 00:09:40,860
Mmm.

177
00:09:41,830 --> 00:09:43,490
And then...

178
00:09:44,260 --> 00:09:45,710
...they told me...

179
00:09:46,260 --> 00:09:48,900
...she only has six months left.

180
00:09:50,250 --> 00:09:51,340
Eh?

181
00:09:52,310 --> 00:09:55,150
At most six months.

182
00:10:03,880 --> 00:10:05,380
I see.

183
00:10:30,580 --> 00:10:33,520
Take this nanjin, too.

184
00:10:33,890 --> 00:10:36,000
It's been boiled until it's soft.

185
00:10:36,000 --> 00:10:38,510
The hospital that Oba-chan had been hospitalized at...

186
00:10:38,510 --> 00:10:41,380
...was ten minutes away by bicycle.

187
00:10:42,000 --> 00:10:43,270
I'm off!

188
00:10:43,270 --> 00:10:46,910
Once every two days,
I would pack side-dishes and a dinner...

189
00:10:47,280 --> 00:10:50,670
...and go make a sympathy visit to her.

190
00:10:59,650 --> 00:11:00,870
Good evening!

191
00:11:00,870 --> 00:11:04,210
Ala, Ito-chan! You've come again.

192
00:11:04,210 --> 00:11:09,540
That's right! These days, coming out here has been my only recreation.

193
00:11:10,100 --> 00:11:12,030
Ah? Has something happened again?

194
00:11:12,030 --> 00:11:14,860
That's right. Oba-chan, just listen!

195
00:11:14,860 --> 00:11:18,980
The other day, I was talking with those fool wholesaler men.

196
00:11:17,930 --> 00:11:18,980
What happened?

197
00:11:18,980 --> 00:11:21,310
Those guys are really...

198
00:11:21,310 --> 00:11:22,510
Ala?

199
00:11:22,800 --> 00:11:24,270
These are pretty, huh?!

200
00:11:24,270 --> 00:11:28,400
Those were given to me by Yū-chan and Nao-chan.

201
00:11:28,400 --> 00:11:30,130
Ehh...!

202
00:11:30,130 --> 00:11:34,120
Even so, when they make you a sympathy visit, they should have gotten you smaller ones.

203
00:11:34,120 --> 00:11:38,680
These are too big.

204
00:11:35,240 --> 00:11:38,680
That's not true. I'd be happy with whatever they got me.

205
00:11:39,980 --> 00:11:44,050
Whether it's flowers or clothes,
those girls think the gaudier the better.

206
00:11:44,050 --> 00:11:48,490
Oba-chan, eat this.
Mom said she cooked this until it was soft.

207
00:11:48,720 --> 00:11:54,760
I felt I wanted to make Oba-chan's remaining days as bright as I possibly could.

208
00:11:55,430 --> 00:11:57,090
Eat well. Chew it well.

209
00:11:57,360 --> 00:12:01,330
Yeah, that's good! That's good!

210
00:12:03,780 --> 00:12:05,230
Delicious, isn't it?

211
00:12:05,230 --> 00:12:08,510
Whaa... Delicious!

212
00:12:07,290 --> 00:12:08,510
It's soft.

213
00:12:08,510 --> 00:12:10,590
It's soft? Don't let it get caught in your throat.

214
00:12:10,590 --> 00:12:12,870
Eat slowly.

215
00:12:12,870 --> 00:12:14,620
I wanted her...

216
00:12:14,620 --> 00:12:17,220
...to be calm and happy.

217
00:12:19,850 --> 00:12:21,410
That's how it seemed.

218
00:12:23,550 --> 00:12:26,560
Oba-chan. What is it?

219
00:12:32,450 --> 00:12:34,250
I...

220
00:12:35,050 --> 00:12:38,050
...was watching TV in the lounge yesterday.

221
00:12:38,270 --> 00:12:39,340
Yeah.

222
00:12:42,230 --> 00:12:45,330
It was about the war.

223
00:12:46,720 --> 00:12:48,090
Yeah.

224
00:12:52,030 --> 00:12:54,430
They were talking about what...

225
00:12:55,380 --> 00:12:57,450
...the Japanese Army...

226
00:12:57,720 --> 00:13:04,050
...had done during the war.

227
00:13:08,720 --> 00:13:10,450
Ito-chan...

228
00:13:11,170 --> 00:13:13,320
...I think...

229
00:13:14,490 --> 00:13:16,340
...Kansuke...

230
00:13:16,610 --> 00:13:21,560
...had a very terrible time of it.

231
00:13:23,670 --> 00:13:26,180
He was damaged by it...

232
00:13:26,810 --> 00:13:29,830
And then became like that.

233
00:13:34,160 --> 00:13:35,360
But...

234
00:13:36,310 --> 00:13:38,240
...it was different.

235
00:13:41,910 --> 00:13:43,840
He...

236
00:13:44,930 --> 00:13:47,000
...did it.

237
00:13:52,150 --> 00:13:54,200
He...

238
00:13:56,070 --> 00:13:57,910
...did it.

239
00:14:51,140 --> 00:14:54,610
