[02:29] classmate 1
Mittsu, do you have work again today?
[02:31] Mitsuru
Hm? Yes.
[02:32] classmate 2
You make your own lunches and you
help out at home. You're amazing!
[02:37] Mitsuru
No, this is just what I always do.
[02:41] classmate 1
Oh, right! Look!
[02:43] classmate 1
He's from the place you work at, right?
[02:46] Mitsuru
Y-Yes.
[02:47] Mitsuru
I heard he played in a band in Tokyo.
[02:51] classmates 1; 2
Wow! Really?
[02:56] Fuki
Thank you!
[02:58] Itsuka
Thank you!
[03:00] Nagomu
Make sure they appreciate
you when they eat you!
[03:03] Itsuka
Isn't it about time to get used
to saying goodbye to the sweets?
[03:07] Fuki
That's right.
[03:08] Fuki
What will you do once you get to the point
where you can make sweets yourself?
[03:14] Mitsuru
Nagomu-san, please use this.
[03:17] Nagomu
Mitsuru-chan...
[03:19] Mitsuru
It's still brand new.
[03:21] Nagomu
Thank you.
[03:23] Nagomu
I'll wash it and return it.
[03:27] Mitsuru
I'm so sorry! They're my little brother's!
[03:29] Mitsuru
The pattern's similar,
so I grabbed them by mistake!
[03:32] Nagomu
Well... I'm glad they were brand new.
[03:34] Itsuka
What's wrong?
[03:36] Mitsuru
He's worn them more than a few times.
[03:39] Itsuka
Let's not say anything.

being stared at like that.

[04:47] Otsurusan
I thought I'd buy my grandchildren

I see. Please, come this way. We have
an open table toward the back.
[04:59] Nagomu

I've got four younger siblings,
so I'm used to it.

Mitsuru-chan...
[06:07] Fuki
Here. The anniversary of your grandmother's
death is coming up, isn't it?
[06:12] Fuki
She loved higashi sweets made from

[06:15] Mitsuru
Thank you so much!

Your grandmother was so very good to us.
[06:21] Fuki
And now we've even got you
helping us, Mitsuru-chan.
[06:23] Fuki
Thank you.
[06:25] Mitsuru
No, it's nothing.
[06:26] Mitsuru
I love working here.
[06:29] Fuki
And people really like the
souvenirs you make for us!
[06:33] Fuki
We sold several more today.
[06:36] Mitsuru
That makes me so happy!
[06:37] Mitsuru
I'll make some more and bring them.
[06:39] Mitsuru
I'm using my favorite one here.
[06:42] Nagomu
I like that.
[06:44] Nagomu
I wish I had one. A chestnut manju.
[06:47] Mitsuru
Oh, speaking of which...
[06:50] Mitsuru
This is you, isn't it, Nagomu-san?
[06:52] Nagomu
Th-This is...
[06:54] Nagomu
This is definitely from that time we
were selling in front of the station!
[06:57] Nagomu
When did they take that?
[06:59] Itsuka
You're the one who went to get
your picture taken, aren't you?
[07:02] Itsuka
Wh-What is it?
[07:04] Nagomu
Nothing!
[07:06] Nagomu
It's nothing. Nothing at all...
[07:13] Nagomu
Mitsuru-chan is in her second
year of high school, right?
[07:16] Nagomu
Isn't it hard for her to
work part-time every day?
[07:19] Fuki
She said she wants to take care
of her university tuition herself.
[07:22] Fuki
She really is so responsible.
[07:24] Fuki
And she must be such a help to her parents.
[07:27] Fuki
She even helps Itsuka with
her studies sometimes.
[07:31] Fuki
Such a good young lady.
[07:34] Itsuka
Yes.
[07:35] Nagomu
I can help with studying, too!

I'm home!

Hey, Big Sis, welcome home!

'Come home!

Welcome home.
[08:01] Mitsuru
Here.
[08:02] Mitsuru's mom
You went grocery shopping for me?
[08:04] Mitsuru
Milk and yogurt were on sale.
[08:14] Mitsuru
Grandpa, Grandma, these are
from your beloved Ryokushou.
[08:19] Mitsuru
They look like wisteria blossoms.
They're so pretty!
[08:28] grandmother
Higashi sweets made of wasanbon, you see...
[08:31] (Flashback) grandmother
They just crumble and melt away
in your mouth, don't they?
[08:36] (Flashback) grandmother
That's what I like about them.
[08:39] (Flashback) grandmother
And they aren't too sweet.
I could eat so many of them.
[08:45] (Flashback) grandmother
You see? Even as I said it,
it's already disappeared.
[08:50] (Flashback) Mitsuru; child
If I work at Ryokushou, couldn't you
eat as much as you wanted?

[08:56] (Flashback) grandmother
Oh, what a sneaky way of thinking.
Who do you take after?
[09:00] (Flashback) grandmother
Don't you worry about that.
[09:02] grandmother
You should go do what you love to do.
[09:07] Mitsuru
What I love to do...
[09:14] little brother 2
Big Brother hit me!
[09:17] little brother 1
I knocked into you a little is all.
[09:21] Mitsuru
Weren't you all just laughing
and playing together?
[09:24] little brother 2
But he...
[09:25] little brother 1
Shut up!
[09:26] Mitsuru
Oh, dear. I can't give nice
things to children who fight.
[09:31] little brother 1
Huh? What is it?
[09:32] little brother 2
What is it?
[09:34] Mitsuru
Grandpa and Grandma are
done with these, so...
[09:38] little brother 2
These are those sugar candies!
[09:40] little brother 1
I love these!
[09:42] Mitsuru
We haven't had dinner yet,
so just one each, okay?
[09:48] little brother 3
It melted!
[09:49] little brother 1
It's so good!
[09:50] little brother 2
It's so sweet!
[09:51] little brothers
One more! One more!
[09:52] Mitsuru
No.
[09:54] Mitsuru
I said just one, didn't I?
[09:56] Mitsuru
You can have more tomorrow.
[09:57] little brothers
Aw...
[09:59] little brother 1
In that case, sing us something
when we go to sleep!
[10:01] little brother 1
I like your singing voice, Big Sis!
[10:05] Mitsuru
All right.
[10:10] Neon
Will I be able to say it right?
[10:14] Neon
Will I be able to tell you?
[10:19] Neon
Honest words would be the best, but...
[10:33] Mitsuru's mom
Welcome home.
[10:34] Mitsuru's dad
Thanks.
[10:36] Mitsuru's dad
Are all the kids asleep?
[10:39] Mitsuru's mom
Mitsuru's put them to bed for me.
[10:41] Mitsuru's dad
I see.
[10:43] Mitsuru's mom
I rely on her for everything.
She's so responsible.
[10:47] Mitsuru's dad
Yes, she is.
[10:49] Mitsuru's dad
She'll keep going like this, find a good job...
[10:52] Mitsuru's dad
Eventually find a good partner...
[10:54] Mitsuru's dad
And make herself a happy family.
That's what I hope, anyway.
[11:05] Mitsuru
After Grandpa and Grandma died...
[11:09] Mitsuru
I wanted to help my parents,
who were both working,
[11:12] Mitsuru
so I helped around the house...
[11:14] Mitsuru
looked after my little brothers...
[11:16] Mitsuru
and tried not to ask for anything
for myself or to cause any trouble.
[11:22] Mitsuru
I know.
[11:25] Mitsuru
Just a little more... I want to
do what I love just a little more.
[11:36] Neon
Will I be able to say it right?
[11:38] Nagomu
Wow. She gets some good sound out of that.
[11:40] Neon
Will I be able to tell you?
[11:41] Nagomu
She seems like she's still in high school.
[11:43] Itsuka
Um, the bath is free if...
[11:44] Neon
Honest words would be the best, but...
[11:47] Itsuka
What are you doing?
[11:50] Itsuka
The bath is free if you want it.
[11:52] Neon
If I wrote it in the sky
[11:52] Nagomu
What? Thank you!
[11:55] Itsuka
I was told to tell you, so I did.
[11:56] Neon
would you smile?
[11:58] Itsuka
Guitar?
[12:00] Nagomu
Oh, this? It's a video of an
amateur giving a performance.
[12:01] Neon
Even though there's nothing good about me
[12:05] Nagomu
It's a good song. And it seems
like she's got quite a few fans.
[12:08] Neon
The stray cat I saw earlier
[12:12] Nagomu
What's wrong?
[12:12] Neon
I think it was crying at the bus stop
[12:14] Itsuka
I was just thinking it's been
a while since I heard a guitar.
[12:17] Nagomu
I played it just the other day
when we were selling manju.
[12:21] Itsuka
That's different.
[12:22] Nagomu
It didn't work for you, huh?
[12:22] Neon
That's the feeling I got
[12:25] Itsuku
Huh? This is Mitsuru-chan.
[12:25] Neon
But it isn't enough yet...
[12:28] Nagomu
What?
[12:29] Neon
to make me bloom in many layers
[12:29] Itsuka
This.
[12:30] Itsuka
It's Mitsuru-chan's phone strap.
[12:33] Neon
So I'll just sing
[12:36] Itsuka
Look! In the comments.
[12:36] Neon
The chord doesn't matter
SIGN I bought a strap like that one at Ryokushou

[12:54] Fuki
What is all this? We've had several
calls like that since this morning.
[12:56] Heigo
Just take the phone off the hook for a while!
[12:58] Fuki
We can't do that. What will
we do if a customer calls?
[13:03] Fuki
There's another one.
[13:06] Fuki
Welcome!
[13:07] Otsurusan
Welcome!
[13:08] Otsurusan
Oh, Mitsuru-chan. You're early today.
Is something wrong?
[13:12] Fuki
That's what I said! There is
no one named Neon here!
SIGN Neon-chan, I tried calling!
The person answering calls at Ryokushou is scary lol

Let's talk about the music
[13:28] Mitsuru
What do I do?
[13:29] Mitsuru
How'd this happen?
[13:31] Mitsuru
I was so careful!
[13:34] Mitsuru
If Mom and the others find out...
[13:37] Mitsuru
They'll be so disappointed in me.
[13:42] Itsuka
Mitsuru-chan!
[13:44] Mitsuru
Itsuka-chan...
[13:48] Nagomu
So it really was you, Mitsuru-chan?
[13:52] Mitsuru
Yes.
[13:54] Nagomu
You've been playing music, then?
When did you start?
[13:58] Mitsuru
In middle school.
[14:00] Mitsuru
A friend started playing guitar,
and she let me play, too.
[14:09] Mitsuru
I just plucked the strings a little...
[14:11] Mitsuru
And I felt like my heart began to unfurl.
[14:17] Mitsuru
I always hold myself back, but...
[14:19] Mitsuru
I felt like, through music, I'd be
able to express all kinds of emotions.
[14:24] Mitsuru
My friend stopped playing.
[14:28] Mitsuru
But a year ago, I bought myself
a guitar with the money I'd earned.
[14:32] Mitsuru
I wrote some music.
[14:34] Mitsuru
And once I did, I wanted someone to hear it.
[14:40] Mitsuru
I recorded myself in secret
at a karaoke place...
[14:44] Mitsuru
Uploaded it to the internet...
[14:47] Mitsuru
And when I got likes and comments,
it started being fun.
[14:50] Nagomu
Oh, yeah. I get it. I do.
[14:54] Mitsuru
But...
[14:55] Mitsuru
It's all over.
[14:58] Mitsuru
I'll quit working here.
[15:00] Itsuka
What?
[15:01] Mitsuru
I'll quit music, too.
[15:03] Mitsuru
I'm causing problems for the shop.
[15:06] Mitsuru
I'll take down all my songs and
make it like they never existed.
[15:10] Itsuka
You shouldn't do that!
[15:11] Itsuka
You shouldn't give up!
[15:14] Itsuka
You looked like you were having so much fun!
[15:19] Nagomu
Quitting your job at our shop...
Quitting uploading...
[15:23] Nagomu
I can understand that.
[15:25] Nagomu
It's scary to have people you don't
know messing with you, after all.
[15:30] Nagomu
But...
[15:31] Nagomu
Why would you quit music?
[15:35] Mitsuru
I haven't said anything to my parents.
[15:38] Nagomu
You can't tell them?
[15:39] Mitsuru
They trust me because they think
I'm diligent and responsible.
[15:44] Mitsuru
I just can't open up and confide in them!
[15:46] Mitsuru
Mom and Dad are so busy. I just...
[15:51] Mitsuru
Th-This is no time for me
to be doing whatever I want.
[15:55] Mitsuru
I just feel like this
might be the right time.
[15:58] Nagomu
This isn't what you call the "right time."
[16:04] Nagomu
The real "right time"...
[16:07] Nagomu
is when you've played in a band for
ten years and never been very popular!
[16:10] Nagomu
Your band mates leave you,
and you realize you're all alone.
[16:13] Nagomu
And just when a big hole's
been poked in your heart...
[16:16] Nagomu
You decide to go back to your
parents' place! That's the "right time"!
[16:20] Itsuka
What an uncool example.
[16:22] Nagomu
What?
[16:25] Nagomu
If you've already decided to give up, why not
use that courage for something else?
[16:35] Nagomu
Okay.
[16:36] Nagomu
Why don't we head out for a while?
[16:46] Nagomu
I beg of you! Please allow Mitsuru-chan
to do what she wants to do!
[16:49] Mitsuru
N-N-N-Nagomu-san!
[16:52] Mitsuru's mom
Wait a moment, please.
[16:55] Mitsuru's mom
This conversation is all too sudden.
[16:58] Nagomu
I am ashamed to ask this of you, but...
[17:01] Nagomu
When I said I had something
I wanted to do and left home,
[17:04] Nagomu
my parents didn't say anything.
They just let me go.
[17:06] Nagomu
They let me do as I liked, and I'm
truly grateful to them for that.
[17:11] Nagomu
In the end, I did give up that dream,
[17:15] Nagomu
but I have no regrets
about the decision I made.
[17:19] Nagomu
So, won't you give that to Mitsuru-chan, too?
[17:24] Nagomu
Mitsuru-chan's music...
[17:26] Nagomu
I really like it!
[17:33] Itsuka
Mitsuru-chan...
[17:35] Itsuka
You can do this! Say it
like you do in your music!
[17:39] Itsuka
Tell her your feelings!
[17:43] Mitsuru
Yes.
[17:46] Mitsuru
Thank you, Itsuka-chan, Nagomu-san.
[18:04] Itsuka
Still...
[18:06] Itsuka
To think you'd go barging
into someone else's house.
[18:09] Nagomu
Huh? Was that bad?
[18:13] Itsuka
But, well... It might have been
good for Mitsuru-chan's sake.
[18:20] Nagomu
I hope it all turns out okay.

Off to school?
[18:38] Mitsuru
Yes.
[18:39] Nagomu
That's a pleasant smile. Were you able
to talk with your father after that, too?
[18:45] Mitsuru
I came to give a report about that.
[18:49] Mitsuru
After that, that night...
[18:52] Mitsuru
When I told them I want to keep playing music,
[18:55] Mitsuru
and I want to work in a field
that involves music...
[18:58] (Flashback) Mitsuru's mom
Honestly! Why didn't you
say something sooner?
[19:01] (Flashback) Mitsuru's dad
It makes us feel lonely!
[19:02] Mitsuru
...is what they said as they scolded me.
[19:04] Mitsuru
After that, my whole family started
a watch party of my videos...
[19:05] little brother 1
What's with the mask?
[19:07] little brother 2
Did you make it?
[19:09] Mitsuru
I experienced an impressive amount
of pleasurable embarrassment.
[19:12] Nagomu
Man, that's rough.
[19:14] Mitsuru
But everyone said they liked my songs!
[19:18] Nagomu
That's really great.
[19:20] Mitsuru
Yes!
[19:22] Nagomu
I've been checking online, but...
[19:25] Nagomu
It looks like everyone's gotten bored
with hunting down your real identity.
SIGN Neon - I tried making a new song
[19:30] Nagomu
Instead of that...
[19:31] Nagomu
They say that my mom is funny on the phone.

And... I like your music, too, Nagomu-san.
[20:09] Nagomu
Thank you! Makes me feel sort of embarrassed.
[20:12] Mitsuru
And here...
[20:14] Mitsuru
While I was at it, I made a
chestnut manju phone strap, so...
[20:17] Nagomu
I can have it? Thank you!
[20:20] Nagomu
Oh, right. Wait just a sec.
[20:32] Nagomu
Here you go.
[20:33] Nagomu
As a thank you.
[20:36] Nagomu
They're broken, so we can't sell them.
[20:40] Mitsuru
Thank you so much!
[20:43] Mitsuru
Itsuka-chan! Morning!
[20:45] Itsuka
Good morning.
[20:47] Mitsuru
Let's go part of the way together!
[20:50] Itsuka
Okay!
[20:52] Itsuka
I'm going now!
[20:54] Nagomu
Be careful!
[21:05] Itsuka
You seem happy.
[21:09] Mitsuru
Oh, right.
[21:11] Mitsuru
Shall we eat these together?
[21:14] Itsuka
Wasanbon higashi sweets?
[21:16] Mitsuru
Yes.
[21:20] Mitsuru
Nagomu-san is a good person, isn't he?
[21:23] Mitsuru
He's warm-hearted and treats everyone kindly.
[21:27] Itsuka
He does... does he?
[21:32] grandma
It crumbles and melts in your mouth, right?
[21:37] Mitsuru
I really feel like I'll be able to
write the best song I've ever written.

[21:48] Itsuka
Mitsuru-chan...
[21:49] Mitsuru
Hm?
[21:51] Itsuka
You should probably think
it over a little more.
[21:53] Mitsuru
Huh? Think about what?
[21:56] Itsuka
Well... How can I put it...
[23:36] Heigo
What is this tiny, strange little doll?
[23:40] Nagomu
Huh? It's really cool, isn't it?
[23:42] Nagomu
Let's make it the Ryokushou mascot!
[23:45] Heigo
Never!

Itsuka-chan's father is missing, isn't he?
