* At New Year's, the whole family*
* comes to Grandpa's house.*
**[00:06] Ine; narration**
* Since there's too much for*
* the two of us to do alone,*
**[00:09] Ine; narration**
*our oldest son and his wife come to help.*
**[00:13] Kaede**
D-Dear, please don't push yourself too hard!
**[00:17] Kaede**
You're not as young as you used to be!
**[00:19] Yoshiaki**
What are you talking about?
**[00:21] Yoshiaki**
I'm still fighting fit!
**[00:23] Yoshiaki**
I'm not an old geezer yet!
**[00:30] Kaede**
Darling?
**[00:32] Shouzou**
Give it up, Yoshiaki.
**[00:35] Shouzou**
You're going to be one of us very soon.
**[00:39] Yoshiaki**
I refuse! I can do this much!
**[00:42] Shouzou**
You just don't want to look bad
in front of your wife, right?
**[00:47] Yoshiaki**
Gulp!
**[00:48] Shouzou**
Don't worry! I'm not that much of a monster.
**[00:52] Shouzou**
Everyone's bodies grow rickety eventually.
Come on, hand me that mallet.
**[00:57] Yoshiaki; internal**
* Every time my body grows weaker,*
* I understand even better...*
**[01:03] Yoshiaki; internal**
*just how amazing my elderly parents are.*
**[01:06] Shouzou**
Grandma, can you lend a hand, please?
**[01:10] Ine**
Of course.
**[01:12] Shouzou**
Hup!

Hup!
**[01:19] Shouzou**
Don't I, though? Kaede-san!
**[01:22] Shouzou**
I'm much more impressive than Yoshiaki!
**[01:25] Yoshiaki; internal**
*This is why I didn't want to change places!*
**[01:30] Shouzou; internal**
* I'm not soft enough to*
* just hand my son a win.*

Did you make this, Grandpa?
**[01:45] Shouzou**
That's right!

***SIGN*** The next
day
**[01:55] Ine**
On TV, people are always doing
things for their grandchildren,
**[01:59] Ine**
like setting up model trains
or building obstacle courses.
**[02:02] Ine**
That's what Grandpa is doing now.
***SIGN*** Sapped

All the grandkids come home for
New Year's, and if it's for them,

surpassing human limits is nothing.

**[02:14] Mino**
It's Haramaki Bear! It's adorable!
**[02:17] Mino**
Grandpa, you're too awesome!
**[02:19] Shouzou**
What? This is nothing.
**[02:21] Shouzou**
Next is...
**[02:23] Shouzou**
Mino, which character
does Kousuke like again?
**[02:27] Mino**
Um, I'm pretty sure it's the
one from that card game...
***SIGN*** Dark Phoenix Dragon
**[02:32] Mino**
Dark Phoenix Dragon.
**[02:37] Kousuke**
Look! Look! It's snow! Snow!
**[02:40] Kazuko**
Yes, it is.
**[02:41] Shunsuke**
That's all you've been saying
since we got to Aomori.
**[02:46] Akemi**
Hey, what is that?
***SIGN*** A tree in

**[03:05] Ine**
Nee-san, thank you for coming!
**[03:09] Kaoru**
Sorry we're late.
**[03:11] Ine**
Not at all! Thank you for coming!
**[03:14] Yoshiaki**
Takahiro, you're here.
Give me a hand, will you?
**[03:16] Kousuke**
Onee-chan!
***SIGN*** Ogura Hyakunin Isshu
**[03:18] Kousuke**
Let's play!
**[03:22] Shiori**
"And so, my sleeves are
dampened nightly with dew."
**[03:25] Kousuke**
Got it!
**[03:26] Mino**
Wow, Kousuke! You're fast!
**[03:30] Kousuke**
I practiced with Mom!
**[03:33] Shiori**
Grandma Tsuru, are you cold?
**[03:36] Shiori; internal**
* Grandma Tsuru has been like this as long*
* as I can remember, so I'm used to it.*
**[03:42] Shiori; internal**
* But, as usual, I have no*
* idea what she's thinking.*
**[03:45] (Flashback) Tsuru's mom**
Tsuru, you're so smart!
**[03:48] (Flashback) Tsuru's mom**
I'm so proud of you, my daughter.
**[03:56] Shiori**
Grandma Tsuru?
**[03:57] Mino**
Grandma Tsuru, are you going to play?
**[04:00] Kousuke**
Yay! Let's play together! Let's play!
**[04:02] Mino**
Then I'll switch with you.
**[04:13] Shiori; internal**
*I guess I'll try reading one.*
**[04:16] Shiori**
"I shall soon be gone and
leave this world behind."
**[04:20] Shiori**
"Would that I had a memory to take
with me of meeting you one last time."
***SIGN*** ...meeting you one last time.
**[04:44] Tsuru**
Mother, tell me I did well.
**[04:48] Kousuke**
It's true! Grandma Tsuru moved super fast!
**[04:53] Ine**
There you go again. What a silly joke.
***SIGN*** New Year's food is eaten

* When everyone has finished*
* eating their New Year's food,*
**[05:05] Shouzou; narration**
* the grandchildren's attitudes*
* begin to change.*
**[05:12] Kousuke**
Hey, Gramps, let me massage
your shoulders for you!
**[05:15] Shouzou**
Thank you, Kousuke.
**[05:17] Shinji**
What's this? Kousuke,
that's extra nice of you.
**[05:20] Shinji**
You never do that for your dad, you know?
**[05:25] Shunsuke**
Hey, Kousuke! Rub my shoulders, too!
**[05:28] Kousuke**
I don't want to do yours, Shunsuke-niichan.
**[05:31] Mino**
Hey, Kousuke, will you do mine, too?
**[05:34] Kousuke**
Mino-oneechan will be last, okay?
**[05:36] Kousuke**
I'm doing Granny's shoulders now.
**[05:38] Ine**
What a wonderful great-grandchild.
**[05:46] Shiori; internal**
*Could it be that Kousuke's actually...*
**[05:49] Shouzou**
Shiori.
***SIGN*** New Year's gift
**[05:53] Shouzou**
Use this to buy yourself something you want.
**[05:56] Kousuke**
Glint!
**[05:58] Shiori**
Th-Thanks.
**[05:59] Kousuke**
Grandpa, where's mine?
**[06:00] Shouzou**
Oh, for you, Kousuke...
**[06:03] Shouzou**
I have five hundred yen
and a gift card for books.
**[06:08] Kousuke**
Shock.
**[06:14] Shinji**
What's wrong with Kousuke?
**[06:16] Shouzou**
No idea. He must have gotten sleepy.

* The ladies hold their own*

***SIGN*** Shiori's Mom
Kaoru
**[06:40] Kaoru**
Lately, I've been speaking very
sternly to Shiori about her studies.
**[06:46] Kaoru**
It's put distance between me and my
daughter, and I'm not sure what to do.
**[06:49] Akemi**
It's difficult when your children
face their entrance exams.
**[06:52] Ine**
That's when we should watch
over them with kindness.
**[06:57] Ine**
When Takahiro was facing his entrance
exams, I was on edge all the time, too.
**[07:04] Ine**
Kaoru-san, you want to help your daughter
even if it means she hates you.
**[07:09] Ine**
Those feelings...
**[07:11] Ine**
I'm certain that they've reached Shiori.
**[07:15] Kaoru**
Mother...
**[07:23] Kaede**
Mother, may I ask something, too?
**[07:27] Kaede**
In my work as a nurse,
**[07:29] Kaede**
I have a patient who tends to
have a rather commanding tone.
**[07:32] Kaede**
He'll say things like, "Bring that to
me," in a very high-handed manner.
**[07:35] Kaede**
Mother, what would you do if it were you?
**[07:39] Ine**
All you can do is nod your
head when it's appropriate.
**[07:42] Ine**
A hospital is a place meant for
healing people of their illnesses.
**[07:45] Ine**
It isn't a place where one
should expect to be served.
**[07:48] Ine**
Kaede-san, just be open and confident.
**[07:53] Kaede**
Mother!
**[07:56] Ine**
You're all working so hard.
**[07:58] Ine**
It's very impressive.
**[08:08] Ine**
They say that mothers are strong, but even
for mothers, the painful things are painful.
**[08:14] Ine**
It's all right to cry sometimes.
**[08:21] Shouzou**
Grandma? Sorry, but where's
the bottle opener?
**[08:31] Shouzou**
What's all this?!
**[08:33] Mino**
I've never seen Mom like this before.
**[08:38] Shiori**
I guess I'll work harder, too.
***SIGN*** Holy Mother

***SIGN*** BOOM
**[08:52] Shiori**
I think this every year, but isn't that
an insane number of New Year's cards?
**[08:56] Shouzou**
Yes, you're right. There's
about 400 of them.
**[09:00] Ine**
We aren't able to get
in touch with each other
**[09:03] Ine**
instantly like you and
the others can, Shiori.
**[09:06] Ine**
This is our version of social media.
**[09:09] Shouzou**
And, rather than New Year's cards,
these are more like proof of life now.
**[09:15] Ine**
This is a lot less than we used to get.
***SIGN*** Ahahaha
**[09:20] Shiori**
Why are you treating it like a death game?
**[09:23] Shouzou**
First, we divide up mine and Grandma's.
**[09:26] Ine**
This one's from Matsunosuke-san.
This one's from Kaccha.
**[09:29] Shiori**
Say, Grandpa, what's this?
**[09:32] Shiori**
"Shouzou Love. From the Shouzou Fan Club."
***SIGN*** Shouzou LOVE
From the Shouzou Fan Club
Shouzou,
please teach us how to
play gateball next year, too!
**[09:36] Shiori**
"Shouzou, please teach us how to
play gateball next year, too!"
**[09:39] Shouzou**
It's from the old biddies in
the neighborhood association.
**[09:42] Shiori**
It's a fan letter?
***SIGN*** I can't die before I see
a great-grandkid of mine.
Heisuke
Happy New Year
**[09:45] Shiori**
Whoa! This one's crazy, too!
**[09:47] Shiori**
"I can't die before I see a
great-grandkid of mine. Heisuke."
***SIGN*** Heisuke (Shouta's grandpa)
**[09:51] Ine**
That's so like Heisuke-san.
**[09:53] Shiori**
Terrifying.
**[09:54] Shiori**
Grandpa, do you all write
everything by hand?
**[09:57] Shouzou**
The addresses, yes, but we asked
Yoshiaki to print the fronts for us.
**[10:02] Ine**
We had too much going on
this year to do otherwise.
**[10:05] Ine**
We weren't sure what to write,
**[10:08] Ine**
so we decided to just send that.
***SIGN*** We turned young again!
Looking forward to the
coming year with you!
**[10:11] Shiori**
"We turned young again! Looking forward
to the coming year with you!"
**[10:16] Ine**
Grandpa, the phone won't stop ringing!
**[10:20] Shiori**
Well, of course it won't.
**[10:25] Mino**
Bye!
**[10:26] Shiori**
Later!
**[10:28] Akemi**
Kousuke, we're going home, too.
**[10:31] Kousuke**
No! I don't wanna go home!
**[10:34] Kousuke**
I want to play with Gramps and Granny!
**[10:37] Akemi**
We'll come back for summer
vacation, okay? Come on.
**[10:41] Kousuke**
No! No! I want to stay now!
**[10:46] Kazuko**
Look at your dad!
**[10:49] Kazuko**
He looks just like Gramps, doesn't he?
**[10:51] Kazuko**
Make do with your dad for now.
**[10:54] Kousuke**
Not the same! I want Gramps!
**[10:58] Akmi**
Well, this is a problem. What do we do?
**[11:01] Ine**
Kousuke, take this with you.
**[11:05] Ine**
Through Mister Bear, we'll be able
to see you, Kousuke.
**[11:10] Ine**
We won't be able to reply, but
we'll be able to hear you, okay?
**[11:14] Shouzou**
That's right!
**[11:15] Shouzou**
We're always with you, Kousuke.
So, don't cry. Okay?
**[11:21] Kousuke**
Okay.
**[11:25] Kousuke**
I won't cry, so make sure
you watch me, okay?
**[11:30] Shouzou**
Yes, of course we will!
**[11:33] Shouzou**
We'll always be right by your side.
**[11:43] Shouzou**
That's a promise.
**[11:47] Ine**
They've all gone.
**[11:52] Ine**
Now we're back to our usual, quiet lives.
**[11:58] Ine**
Dear, dear. You're the
one who said not to cry.
**[12:06] Ine**
You don't have any
room to talk, do you?
**[12:14] Ine**
Good morning, Grandpa.
**[12:17] Shouzou**
Good morning, Grandma.
**[12:22] Ine**
Today's the day Mino and Shouta-kun are
coming to the apple orchard, isn't it?
**[12:26] Shouzou**
Oh, that's right.
**[12:28] Shouzou**
I have to hurry up and eat
so I can get things ready.
**[12:34] Mino**
Grandpa! Grandma! Morning!
**[12:40] Shouzou**
Morning, Mino, Shouta-kun.
**[12:43] Shouta**
Good morning!
**[12:45] Shouta**
Thank you for teaching me today.
**[12:59] Shouzou**
You young people sure do
improve quickly, don't you?
**[13:03] Shouzou**
The way you prune branches
is really shaping up.
**[13:06] Shouta**
No, sir. Compared to you,
I still have a long way to go.
**[13:11] Shouta**
Just pruning one tree is hard work for me,
**[13:14] Shouta**
but you've done every tree in
this orchard, haven't you?
**[13:18] Shouzou**
Well, yes, I have.
**[13:21] Shouzou**
It's only a few hundred trees. No big deal.
**[13:25] Shouzou**
So, Shouta-kun, how have things
been with Mino lately?
**[13:30] Shouta**
What?!
**[13:31] Shouta**
They've, um...
**[13:33] Shouta**
They've been going... well.
**[13:36] Shouzou**
Every time I see your grandpa, he pesters me,
asking, "When's the wedding?"
**[13:41] Shouta**
It's way too soon for that!
**[13:43] Mino**
Honestly. Grandpa's playing
with Shouta-kun again.
**[13:47] Ine**
Well, he's basically like
our grandson at this point.
**[13:51] Ine**
Allow him a little leeway, won't you?
**[13:53] Ine**
More importantly, Mino,
are you sure about this?
**[13:55] Ine**
Coming to help us on your day off?
**[13:58] Mino**
It's totally fine!
**[14:00] Mino**
I really like working in the orchard.
**[14:05] Mino**
Besides, I committed to looking
after the apple tree we planted.
**[14:11] Ine**
The truth is, you just want to
spend time with Shouta-kun.
**[14:14] Mino**
N-No, it's not like that!
**[14:18] Shouta**
Mino!
**[14:20] Shouta**
Mino! Can you help pick up
branches for a minute?
**[14:23] Mino**
Shouta-kun!
**[14:25] Mino**
I told you not to call me by my first name
in front of Grandpa and Grandma yet!
**[14:30] Mino**
Honestly!
**[14:33] Shouzou**
Well, then, I'll leave the
branches over there to you two.
**[14:36] Shouta**
Y-Yes, sir! Will do.
**[14:43] Shouta**
Is something wrong?
**[14:45] Shouzou**
No, it's nothing.
**[14:49] Shouzou**
Shouta-kun, I'll leave the rest to you.
**[14:56] Shouta**
Yes, sir.
**[15:01] Ine**
Well, if you need anything,
just call for us.
**[15:03] Mino**
Okay!
**[15:16] Mino**
Next...
**[15:18] Shouta**
Yes?
**[15:19] Mino**
Want to try working over there?
**[15:21] Shouta**
Sure.
**[15:22] Mino**
Okay!
**[15:33] Shouzou**
Say, Grandma?
**[15:36] Shouzou**
Shall we walk a while?
**[15:52] Ine**
Mount Iwaki looks beautiful
today, doesn't it?
**[15:55] Shouzou**
Not compared to you, Grandma.
**[15:57] Ine**
Now, Grandpa, don't say things like that!
**[16:03] Shouzou**
Shall we take a rest here?
**[16:05] Ine**
Yes, let's.
**[16:20] Ine**
The weather today is so nice
that it's making me sleepy.
**[16:25] Shouzou**
Yeah. My thoughts are just drifting away.
**[16:33] Shouzou**
Grandma, did you hear about Shiori?
**[16:37] Ine**
Yes, I did.
**[16:42] Shouzou**
That's our granddaughter for you.
She's really impressive.
**[16:46] Ine**
She said she's applying to
the medical department.
**[16:49] Ine**
And thanks to the power of Takahashi-kun's
home tutoring, her grades are soaring.
**[16:55] Shouzou**
Apparently, every time the Takahashis go to
Takahiro's clinic, they talk about Shiori.
**[17:02] Shouzou**
He said that doesn't really
count as medical care.
**[17:07] Ine**
We should secretly give them
some apples as thanks.
**[17:11] Shouzou**
Grandma, you really do like leaving things
at the door without a word, don't you?
**[17:17] Ine**
Akemi's sons have all gone off on their own,
**[17:20] Ine**
so she's got a little more
freedom than she used to.
**[17:25] Shouzou**
And Yoshiaki seems to have
found a new place to work.
**[17:30] Shouzou**
I do wonder how this one will work out.
**[17:37] Shouzou**
There's no way of telling
what'll happen tomorrow.
**[17:41] Ine**
That's true.
**[17:43] Ine**
I can't even imagine what will
happen with the children next.
**[17:50] Shouzou**
But those kids...
**[17:53] Ine**
will be just fine.
**[18:02] Shouzou**
Next week... there's the gateball tournament.
**[18:06] Ine**
We practiced a lot with
Matsunosuke and the others...
**[18:12] Ine**
so I'm sure we'll beat Minamimachi.
**[18:18] Shouzou**
For summer vacation, Akemi
and the others will come...
**[18:22] Ine**
Kousuke and the others will have grown.
We'll all set off fireworks together.
**[18:33] Shouzou**
Grandma, if you could have one wish...
**[18:38] Shouzou**
what would you wish for?
**[18:45] Ine**
A wish?
**[18:51] Ine**
My wish...
**[18:57] Ine**
has already come true.
**[19:00] Shouzou**
I see. So has mine.
**[19:09] Shouzou**
Grandma, what do you want to do tomorrow?
**[19:13] Ine**
Let's see...
**[19:15] Ine**
Tomorrow, Grandpa, you and I will...
**[20:29] Mino**
Grandpa! Grandma! Let's have lunch!
**[20:34] Mino**
If you sleep there,
you'll both catch colds!

**[22:39] Shouta**
Hey, Grandma!
**[22:42] Shouta**
Grandma!
**[22:44] Shouta**
Grandma!
**[22:48] Shouta**
Grandma!
**[22:50] Mino**
What is it, Grandpa?
**[22:52] Shouta**
Just come over here for me, won't you?
**[22:55] Mino**
Incredible! What is that?
**[23:01] Shouta**
This is the tree we planted when
we were students, isn't it?
**[23:15] Shouta**
What do we do? Should we
put it on the kamidana?
**[23:18] Mino**
Well, it seems a waste to
just set it aside like that.
**[23:33] Shouta; Mino**
Let's try eating it.
