[01:48] Kiyo
    Great! Snow's shoveled.
[01:55] Kiyo
    So cold!
[01:58] Kiyo
    Brr, I’m really back in Aomori.
[02:02] Grandma
    Kiyo?
[02:04] Grandma
    Let's pack the lacquer box.
[02:10] Kiyo
    New Year's food!
[02:12] Grandma
    I wanted to celebrate
    when you came home.
[02:16] Kiyo
    I can reach, Grandma.
[02:20] Kiyo
    Can I put the black soy beans in here?
[02:23] Grandma
    The sweet egg omelet would be better.
[02:27] Kiyo
    Okay.
[02:28] Kiyo
    Can I offer it on Mom's altar?
[02:32] Kiyo
    She loved them.
[02:34] Grandma
    I already did.
[02:36] Kiyo
    Kinton, too?
[02:37] Grandma
    Of course.
[02:41] Grandma
    Hey, no picking!
[02:44] Grandma
    Sumire and Kenta will be here soon.
[02:47] Kiyo
    Okay.
[02:51] Grandma
    Why don't you go greet Sumire?
[02:55] Kiyo
    Okay.
[03:03] Kenta
    Hey!
[03:05] Kiyo
    Hey!
[03:08] Kenta
    I didn't want to come empty-handed.
[03:10] Kiyo
    Oh, the famous roast chicken!
[03:14] Kiyo
    Looks delicious!
[03:16] Kenta
    I thought you might want some,
    since you spent Christmas away.
[03:21] Kiyo
    I do, thanks!
[03:26] Sumire
    I brought something, too.
[03:30] Kiyo
    Sumire!
[03:31] Sumire
    Happy new year!
[03:34] Kiyo
    Happy new year!
[03:35] Sumire
    Here.
[03:37] Kiyo
    Yes, our favorite cake!
[03:40] Sumire
    Kenta, you're the same.
[03:43] Kenta
    How?
[03:45] Sumire
    Your height.
[03:46] Kenta
    So what...
[03:48] Kiyo
    It feels like my body's still swaying
    from the long train ride yesterday.
[03:53] Sumire
    Are you okay?
[03:58] Kiyo
    Grandma, chicken and cake!
[04:01] Sumire
    Happy new year.
[04:04] Grandma
    It's so good to see you both.
[04:08] Grandma
    Ozoni soup is almost ready.
[04:10] Kiyo
    I'll fill the oju.
[04:13] Grandma
    Oh, that's done.
[04:15] Grandma
    Can you grind the walnuts?
[04:18] Kiyo/ Sumire & Kenta
    Yes!
[04:36] Sumire
    Hm? Was I doing this last year, too?
[04:40] Kenta
    Yeah, our last winter of middle school.
[04:44] Sumire
    Middle school?
[04:46] Sumire
    We left for Kyoto
    less than a year ago!?
[04:50] Kenta
    Don't tell me you thought it was longer!
[04:54] Grandma
    You must be busy in Kyoto, Sumire.
[04:58] Kiyo
    Yeah! Sumire's a star over there, too!
[05:02] Kiyo
    Sensei praises her dancing,
    and she debuted first in Kagai!
[05:08] Kiyo
    She's really impressive!
[05:11] Grandma
    Oh, that's amazing.
[05:14] Kiyo
    Isn't it?
[05:16] Kenta
    Yeah.
[05:17] Kiyo
    Sumire's really amazing!
[05:20] Kenta
    We get it, amazing.
[05:22] Sumire
    Kiyo...
[05:23] Grandma
    Mm hm.
SIGN    Kiyo's Family's Ozoni Soup

    Mellow flavor.)
[05:28] Kiyo
    Wishing everyone a happy new year!
[05:31] Sumire
    Happy new year!
[05:33] Kenta
    Happy new year!
[05:34] Grandma
    Now, let's eat.
[05:37] Grandma
    Sumire, how's Kiyo in Kyoto?
[05:42] Kenta
    You're cooking, right?
[05:45] Kiyo
    Yeah.
[05:47] Sumire
    Kiyo is...
[05:50] Sumire
    She’s still Kiyo in Kyoto.
[05:52] Grandma
    Huh?

    Dish of the Day
[06:13] Sumire
    Today’s dish is Kiyo's family's ozoni.
[06:17] Sumire
    A simple soup with chicken,
    vegetables and mochi sticky rice...
[06:22] Sumire
    in clear broth with soy sauce.
[06:25] Kenta
    But then you add the walnut sauce.
[06:28] Kiyo
    It's sweet, savory and perfect
    with softened mochi.
[06:33] Sumire
    It seems they don’t put walnut sauce
    on ozoni in Kyoto.
[06:38] Sumire
    So surprising.
[06:40] Kiyo
    Not even on mochi cakes.
[06:42] Kenta
    Really?
[06:44] Kenta
    I assumed they ate it there, too.
[06:48] Kiyo
    It's sold at supermarkets in Aomori
    and made at home often, too.
[06:54] Sumire
    When we're together grinding walnuts
    during mochi season...
[06:58] Sumire
    it really feels like New Year's to me.
[07:03] Kiyo
    To make walnut sauce.
[07:05] Kiyo
    Place walnuts in a mortar
    and grind until oil forms.
[07:10] Kiyo
    When the walnuts get sticky,
    add sugar.
[07:14] Kiyo
    Continue mixing
    while slowly adding warm water.
[07:18] Kenta
    Use water to adjust the consistency.
[07:21] Kiyo
    Add sugar and soy sauce
    to flavor as needed.
[07:26] Sumire
    A stronger flavor tastes better
    with mochi.
[07:32] Kiyo
    Serve when done!
[07:34] Kiyo
    Enjoy creamy walnut sauce
    on mochi and ozoni soup.
[07:39] Sumire
    The sweet and savory flavor
    goes so well with grilled mochi.
[07:44] Kenta
    I could eat mochi endlessly
    with walnut sauce.
[07:50] Sumire
    "There is a phrase from Iwate..."
[07:53] Sumire
    "that describes tasty foods
    as having a walnut flavor."
[07:57] Sumire
    "Because walnuts are believed to be
    so tasty."
[08:01] Kenta
    I agree, they're so good.
[08:05] Kenta
    We use ground walnuts
    on many foods at home, too.
[08:09] Kiyo
    You can toss with spinach, greens
    or string beans for a dish.
[08:14] Sumire
    Nagano is known for walnuts.
[08:17] Sumire
    It says, “It's even a dipping sauce
    for soba noodles there.”
[08:22] Sumire
    Walnuts match well with many foods.
[08:25] Kenta
    I like it best with mochi.
[08:29] Kiyo/ Sumire & Kenta
    Ah, thinking of walnut sauce
    made me hungry.
[08:34] Grandma
    Can you bring over the ground walnuts
    for ozoni?
[08:38] Kiyo/ Sumire & Kenta
    Yes!

    Chapter 20 New Year's Shrine Visit
[08:53] Sumire
    Kiyo, your dad couldn't come home
    because of work?
[08:58] Kiyo
    Yeah, where are your parents?
[09:01] Sumire
    They took the car and went shopping.
[09:04] Sumire
    And Kenta?
[09:05] Kenta
    My relatives came over.
[09:08] Kenta
    It's probably a drinking party by now.
[09:11] Sumire
    Kenta, what's that!?
[09:16] Kenta
    This.
SIGN    Popular Snack Kids Buy (Aomori people’s soul food. Sandwich with plenty of margarine and sugar.)
[09:27] Kenta
    I bought it earlier.
[09:30] Sumire
    Why didn't you share it at Kiyo's?
[09:34] Kenta
    Because it's mine.
[09:35] Sumire
    Give me some!
[09:37] Kenta
    You just had a feast and cake!
[09:39] Sumire
    This is different!
[09:58] Kiyo

[10:00] Kenta
    You say so every year.

    Please let me do my best as a maiko.
[10:41] Kiyo
    Please let everyone stay healthy.
[10:45] Kenta
    Please let me make the starting lineup.

    Those three are so earnest.
[10:54] Shrine Worshipper B
    Let's go drink amazake.
[10:56] Shrine Worshipper C
    That's what I'm here for.
[11:04] Kiyo
    A fortune slip, please.
[11:06] Shrine Attendant
    Go ahead.
[11:15] Kiyo
    Look, I bought one, too!
[11:19] Kenta
    You took so long.
[11:21] Sumire
    I'm cold.
[11:25] Sumire
    Let's open them together.
[11:29] Kenta
    Got it.
[11:29] Kiyo
    Mm.
[11:32] Kiyo/ Sumire & Kenta
    Ready?
[11:39] Kenta
    Aah! I got Great Luck!
[11:43] Sumire
    Me, too! Great Luck!
[11:45] Kenta
    It's my first ever!
[11:48] Sumire
    Me, too!
    We're supposed to keep them!
[11:52] Kenta
    At home.
[11:54] Sumire
    Yeah.
[12:01] Kiyo
    Mine says Bad Luck.
[12:04] Sumire
    Leave it here for blessings.
[12:08] Kiyo
    Mm.
[12:09] Kenta
    I think tying it up high is better.
[12:18] Sumire
    Let's go home, okay?
[12:22] Kiyo
    Mm.
[12:31] Sumire
    Sorry, I forgot something!
[12:35] Kenta
    I need the bathroom!
[12:49] Sumire
    What are you doing?
[12:51] Kenta
    And yourself?
[13:01] Kenta
    Please counteract her fortune
    with ours.
[13:06] Sumire
    Please.

    Sorry!

    Dish of the Day
[13:47] Kiyo
    Let's talk local breads.
[13:52] Kenta
    The sugar crunches through margarine
    in this sandwich.
[13:58] Kiyo
    It was popular to buy
    on the way home from school.
[14:02] Sumire
    So many kinds at the store.
[14:06] Sumire
    I had trouble choosing one.
[14:09] Kenta
    But then I'd end up with the usual.
[14:15] Kiyo
    New flavors are fun,
    but the usual is the best.
[14:20] Sumire
    If you're not from Aomori, it's odd
    to call untoasted bread "toast".
[14:26] Kenta
    Not to me because
    I've known it as "toast" all my life.
[14:31] Sumire
    It's been around for 50 years!
[14:35] Sumire
    Oh, I'm starting to crave some now.
[14:39] Kiyo
    An unforgettable taste
    since our childhood.
[14:44] Kiyo
    I just want it sometimes.
[14:47] Kenta
    That bread is famous in Aomori.
[14:50] Kenta
    Any other local specialty breads?
[14:53] Sumire
    Of course, I'll look some up.
[14:57] Sumire
    "First, Hokkaido's fluffy vitamin bread."
[15:03] Sumire
    "Niigata's buttercream bun."
[15:07] Sumire
    "Cream sandwich on milk bread
    from Nagano."
[15:13] Sumire
    "Tochigi's bread commemorates
    a hot spring flowing."
[15:18] Sumire
    "Shiga's has pickles in mayonnaise."
[15:22] Sumire
    "Rose-shaped bread from Shimane."
[15:25] Sumire
    "Kochi's looks like a sun hat."
[15:28] Sumire
    "Fukuoka's is named after New York."
[15:32] Sumire
    "Okinawa's bread has zebra stripes."
[15:36] Sumire
    "Toyama's jade-colored bread and
    Shizuoka's giraffe's neck..."
[15:40] Sumire
    "Fukushima's... Kyoto's..."
[15:44] Kenta
    Who knew there are specialty breads
    all over the country.
[15:49] Kiyo
    A new one could be created
    somewhere in Japan right now!

[16:10] Maiko A
    How nice!
[16:14] Narr
    Most maiko are not from Kyoto.
[16:18] Narr
    They leave home after middle school and come to Kyoto alone.
[16:21] Narr

    Excuse me?

    Who suggested eating by Kamo River?
[18:36] Sumire
    I'm sorry, it was me, Momohana.
[18:40] Sumire
    I could see the people on the riverbank
    from the bridge.
[18:44] Sumire
    Looked so fun.
[18:46] Sumire
    But I couldn't come with my hair up,
    and never with all the Sisters.
[18:53] Tsurukoma
    I understand.

[19:31] Maiko

    Dish of the Day
[20:44] Sumire
    The Sisters and I had hamburgers
    by Kamo River today.
[20:48] Kiyo
    It was so good!
[20:50] Sumire
    Ordinary hamburgers, but tastier
    because we ate them all together.
[20:56] Sumire
    How interesting.
[20:57] Tsurukoma
    Cup noodles, potato chips...
[21:00] Tsurukoma
    Why are we drawn to junk food?
[21:03] Sumire
    Tsurukoma Sister, you're so serious.
[21:07] Tsurukoma
    I've been pondering why
    fast food burgers drive us crazy.
[21:14] Kiyo
    Grand questions.
[21:15] Sumire
    Perhaps you didn't want fast food?
[21:21] Sumire
    Maybe something special
    on your day off?
[21:24] Tsurukoma
    No, no, not at all.
[21:27] Tsurukoma
    I was excited even before I ordered.
[21:30] Sumire
    Were the hamburgers there not tasty?
[21:34] Tsurukoma
    No, they were delicious!
[21:37] Tsurukoma
    Doubly so because we ate them together.
[21:41] Sumire
    Then, what didn't you like?
[21:44] Tsurukoma
    It's not about what I don’t like,
    but my inner struggle.
[21:49] Tsurukoma
    I must exercise self-control
    with a burger, not just enjoy it.
[21:54] Sumire
    Self-control?
[21:56] Tsurukoma
    I cannot relax and get swept up
    in the moment.
[22:00] Tsurukoma
    Or else I will get carried away.
[22:03] Sumire
    Carried away?
[22:06] Tsurukoma
    Listen carefully.
[22:07] Tsurukoma
    A fast food burger is... is...
[22:12] Tsurukoma
    high in calories!
[22:14] Sumire
    I see.
[22:16] Sumire
    Many tasty foods do have high calories.
[22:19] Tsurukoma
    I know I shouldn't eat them,
    but I can't help wanting to!
[22:26] Tsurukoma
    And I would never give up the chance
    to eat with everyone!
[22:30] Tsurukoma
    I wanted to join the hamburger fun, too!
[22:34] Sumire
    We enjoyed eating our burgers
    with you, too.
[22:38] Sumire
    It was uplifting.
[22:40] Kiyo
    Eating together is the best.
[22:44] Tsurukoma
    I'm happy I could eat hamburgers
    with everyone today.
[22:49] Tsurukoma
    Burgers aren't wrong.
[22:51] Tsurukoma
    I'm switching my focus to work hard
    and shed those extra calories!
[22:58] Sumire
    We're counting on you this year too,
    Tsurukoma Sister.
[23:04] Tsurukoma
    You bet, let's get pumped with burgers!
