Himeno!
**[02:14] him**
Coming!
**[02:19] him**
I'm off now.
**[02:23] him**
But I'm so nervous!
**[02:28] him**
I'll come right home after school.
**[02:30] him**
I want to help with the
café as much as possible.
**[02:33] tok**
The clubs will be advertising, right?
**[02:35] sac**
It's not going to be that
busy on the first day.
**[02:39] sac**
There's no need to hurry. You should
make some friends instead.
**[02:43] him**
They don't have a home economics
club, so I'll just come home.
**[02:46] him**
Should I put the sign out?
**[02:47] tok**
Yeah, thanks.

**[03:36] nao**

**[03:37] mik**
Too bad!
**[03:39] mik**
Bye!
**[03:43] mam**
Next, Kukuri-san.
**[03:45] mik**
Yes!
**[03:47] mik**
My name is Kukuri Mika, I came
from To-to Middle school!
***SIGN*** Kukuri Mika
**[03:50] him**
*It's that girl.*
**[03:52] miK**
I have one younger brother and
two older sisters, Ikka and Nika,
**[03:55] miK**
but my name is not Threeka, but Mika!
**[03:57] miK**
In middle school I was in the fine arts club,
**[03:58] miK**
but I decided to join the
pottery club in high school,
**[04:00] miK**
so I'm really looking for
people who'll come with me,
**[04:02] miK**
so please come talk to me!
**[04:03] him**
*Yeah, she's quite intense all right.*
***SIGN*** Naruse Naoko
**[04:08] nao**
I came from Ta Middle School
and my name's Naruse Naoko...
**[04:13] nao**
I kind of just live life.
**[04:18] nao**
That's all.
***SIGN*** Toyokawa Himeno
**[04:22] him**
My name is Toyokawa Himeno.
**[04:24] him**
My dad's company went bankrupt!
**[04:26] miK**
Whaaa?!
**[04:29] miK**
Oh, sorry.
**[04:30] him**
It's all right.
**[04:32] him**
Anyway, since we had nowhere to go,
**[04:34] him**
we left Tokyo to move
to my mother's hometown!
**[04:37] mam**
I heard that your father
quit being a salaryman
**[04:40] mam**
and opened his own business.
**[04:42] him**
Nice assist, Sensei!
**[04:46] him**
Actually, my dad is running a
café on Honmachi Oribe Street!
**[04:50] him**
The name is Café Tokishirou!
**[04:53] him**
There are over 400 mugs like
these in various colors,
**[04:57] him**
so you can pick whichever one you like!
**[05:00] mik**
*No way. That's...*
**[05:03] mik**
*There's no doubt. Every one of them!*
**[05:06] mik**
*That color usage... all of them are unique!*
**[05:08] mik**
*Since she has all of those...*
**[05:10] mik**
*it must mean she's a...*
**[05:13] mik**
Kindred spirit!
**[05:15] mik**
I'm in love! Be with me!
**[05:17] him**
*Be whaaaa?!*
***SIGN*** Game winning hit with bases loaded
That's the god of baseball...
***SIGN*** Mei Sports
Ichikawa
Huge Shock!
**[05:21] tok**
No customers, huh?
**[05:26] sac**
Regulars don't cheat so easily.
**[05:29] sac**
I'm sure we'll see some tourists
around lunch time.
***SIGN*** Tokishirou
**[05:37] tok**
Let's take it slow then.
**[05:46] nao**
Oh, so this is what you
meant by "be with me"?
**[05:49] mik**
Yes! This is the club room
for the pottery club!
**[05:52] him**
How is it this fancy?!
**[05:53] mik**
The inside is impressive, too!
**[05:55] him**
It's not your first time here?
**[05:57] mik**
I've actually been here
many times since last year!
**[06:00] mik**
The reason is that Touko-senpai is here!
**[06:03] him**
Touko-senpai?
**[06:05] mik**
Touko-senpai, we're here!
**[06:08] him**
Excuse me.
**[06:11] mik**
I brought an amazing girl!
**[06:14] mik**
She has a ton of super rare mugs!
**[06:16] mik**
Apparently, her dad's company
went under so he started a café!
**[06:23] him**
*This smell...*
**[06:24] mik**
I bet she is a Tokigawa Himena fan!
**[06:30] tou**
Mika-chan, I always tell you.
**[06:33] tou**
Please be quiet when I'm throwing
or you'll break my concentration.
**[06:37] mik**
But...
**[06:39] him**
Um, what is this smell?
**[06:46] him**
It brings back memories for some reason.
**[06:50] tou**
You know the smell of clay?
**[06:52] him**
No... At least, I don't
think I should know it.
**[06:55] mik**
See, I knew you were interested.
**[06:57] mik**
Show Touko-senpai those mugs, too!
**[07:00] tou**
Mugs?
**[07:03] tou**
There's no doubt.
**[07:07] tou**
They're all by Tokigawa Himena.
**[07:09] tou**
How did you get these?
**[07:11] him**
Huh? Oh, that's my mother.
**[07:15] mik**
But you're a Toyokawa, not a Tokigawa!
***SIGN*** Muscle
**[07:19] him**
T-Tokigawa is my mother's maiden name.
**[07:23] mik**
Amazing, I want to meet her!
**[07:26] mik**
Um, um...
**[07:28] mik**
This!
***SIGN*** Tokigawa Himena
***SIGN*** The world reflected in a cup
**[07:29] mik**
In our world, she's super famous.
I mean, she's Tokigawa Himena!
**[07:32] mik**
Every girl in pottery looks up to her!
**[07:35] him**
Really?!
**[07:36] miK**
What is she doing now? How come
she stopped making things?
**[07:39] miK**
Can I come to your house?
**[07:40] him**
Sure, but my mother's not there.
**[07:42] mik**
Oh, why not?!
**[07:44] him**
She died when I was four.
**[07:52] him**
Oh, you don't have to worry about it.
**[07:58] him**
I barely remember her.
**[08:05] tok**
Is it raining?
**[08:07] sac**
A real spring rain.
**[08:11] sac**
She used to say that she liked the
smell of the clay this time of year.
**[08:18] tok**
She certainly did.
**[08:21] tou**
This is your mother's work.
**[08:23] him**
We have a very similar one at home.
**[08:26] tou**
Apparently that was her seat.
***SIGN*** Want to try?
**[08:48] him**
I want to try.
**[08:55] tou**
What should we make?
**[08:57] him**
Something easy like a bowl?
**[09:00] tou**
Got it.
**[09:01] tou**
Start by wetting your hands.
**[09:06] tou**
Support the clay with both of
your hands, like you're wrapping it.
**[09:09] him**
Okay.
**[09:14] him**
It's cold.
**[09:16] him**
But I like the slippery feel.
**[09:20] tou**
Now we'll push down with our thumbs.
**[09:25] tou**
Like this.
**[09:27] him**
It's harder than I thought.
**[09:30] tou**
Next, let's widen it to the size we want.
**[09:33] tou**
Let's put a touch of strength
into our middle fingers
**[09:37] tou**
and pull it up.
**[09:41] tou**
I think that will do.
**[09:43] tou**
Now try to push it out with your right hand.
**[09:47] him**
I'm nervous.
**[09:50] tou**
Yes, that's it!
**[09:51] tou**
Now gently let go.
**[10:00] tou**
Nice.
**[10:01] tou**
That was quite good for your first attempt.
**[10:02] him**
Really?
**[10:05] him**
I'll fix the part that's a bit crooked.
**[10:08] tou**
I wouldn't do that.
**[10:16] mik**
It was looking so good.
**[10:18] nao**
Too bad.
**[10:19] mik**
I guess talent isn't genetic.
**[10:24] tou**
That's fine.
**[10:26] tou**
It wouldn't be any fun if you could
do it perfectly from the start.
**[10:30] mik**
Will you come again?! You should come!
**[10:32] mik**
Please come!
***SIGN*** Tokishiro
**[10:36] him**
But the café...
**[10:42] nao**
Hey! You should join the pottery club.
**[10:46] nao**
You seemed to enjoy yourself.
**[11:02] tok**
How was school?
**[11:04] him**
It was fun. I advertised our café, too!
**[11:07] tok**
Great!
**[11:08] him**
And I made a weird friend.
**[11:10] sac**
What do you mean by weird?
**[11:14] him**
How did the café do?
**[11:16] tok**
So so, I guess.
**[11:22] him**
Anyway...
**[11:24] him**
Would it be okay if I joined a club?
**[11:28] him**
Of course. I'll help out with
the café as much as I can.
**[11:31] tok**
Oh, you found something good?
**[11:33] tok**
Of course it's fine.
**[11:34] tok**
You have to do things you like.
**[11:36] him**
Yay!
**[11:37] him**
Then I'll join tomorrow on a trial basis!
**[11:39] sac**
What club is it?
**[11:41] him**
The pottery club!
**[11:42] him**
I guess Mom was amazing!
**[11:44] him**
They taught me quite a lot already!
**[11:57] him**
Dad?
**[12:13] him**
What's wrong?
**[12:15] tok**
Nothing, I'll be right there.
**[12:22] tok**
I always thought this day might come.
**[12:28] tok**
Even if she gets completely absorbed into it,
**[12:31] tok**
I'll make sure to watch over
her properly this time.
**[12:33] tok**
I won't let her get sick.
**[12:39] him**
I don't like that Dad's not happy for me...
**[12:44] tok**
Sorry for the wait.
**[12:50] tok**
Sakura tea is for celebrating departure,
**[12:54] tok**
with a wish that something
new may blossom.
**[12:56] him**
You mean...
**[13:01] him**
It smells nice.
**[13:04] him**
It's good!
**[13:05] tok**
Yeah?

You can line up as many as you want.

My dad's been on TV.

**[03:53] Minami**
Yeah.
**[03:54] Minami**
- He's a chef?
-Yes, he's a chef
**[03:56] Minami**
and he was worried about my cooking
**[03:59] Minami**
so he came on as a guest.
**[04:02] Yu**
That's hilarious.
**[04:03] Minami**
Just search for "Tanaka Minami's dad."

**[04:12] Yu**
We actually went around
to about eight locations.
**[04:16] Yu**
He came to each show.
**[04:17] Yūki**
That's amazing.
**[04:18] Rina**
What a nice dad!
**[04:19] Yu**
He came to every single show.
**[04:21] Minami**
That's so nice!
**[04:23] Yu**
Yeah, even all the way up in Hokkaido.
**[04:25] Yu**
He's so full of love.
**[04:27] Yu**
So I do love that about him.
**[04:30] Minami/Yūki**
- What about yours?
- Well, my dad...
**[04:32] Yūki**
So take my face...
**[04:35] Yūki**
Make it a little rounder, add
a mustache, and you get my dad.
**[04:38] Minami/Yūki**

- Like exactly!
**[04:40] Minami**
Ah, so you look like your dad.

Yeah, I look like my dad.
He's, uh, very dapper.

**[04:49] Rina**
Well? Um...
**[04:52] Rina**
How do I even put this...
**[04:55] Rina**
Wow, that's really rude. I'm sorry.
**[04:58] Rina/Minami**
- That was rude...
- He's probably watching!
**[05:01] Rina**
I had an intense rebellious phase.
**[05:04] Yu**
- That's so cute!
- So in high school
**[05:07] Rina**
I didn't talk to him as much at one point.
**[05:10] Rina**
So, like...
**[05:12] Rina**
Despite all that,
**[05:13] Rina**
he still raised his selfish little girl
**[05:16] Rina**
so I respect him so much.
**[05:19] Rina/Yu**
- That's amazing.
- Yeah, raising another human being is just...
**[05:23] Rina/Yu**
But...
**[05:25] Rina**

Wait, is this shopping time now?
**[06:03] Minami**
They're the same design,
but still, slightly different.
**[06:08] Minami**
Like right around the mouth.
**[06:11] Minami**
And here...
**[06:16] Minami**
Oh, what should I do?

That's 530,000 yen!
**[06:38] Rina**
Wow, that's amazing.
**[06:39] Yu**
I won't be able to buy that.
**[06:45] Narratrice**
*All the girls bought some pottery.*
**[06:48] Narratrice**
* This is the first thing to*
* do when you come to Tajimi.*
**[06:53] Narratrice**

**[07:14] Yūki**
Yeah, it is.
**[07:18] Rina/Minami**
- Ah...
- Hello?
**[07:21] Rina**
We lost you for a second.
**[07:23] Minami**
It's so good.
**[07:26] Yūki**
I so wanted to drink this!
**[07:30] Rina**
It's so good!
**[07:33] Yu**
Delicious.
**[07:34] Minami/Yūki**
- It's so rich.
- Hey, it's a little sweet.
**[07:37] Minami**
It is.
**[07:38] Rina**
I tasted the sweetness, too.
**[07:40] Yu**
That was delicious.
**[07:43] Yu**
I feel alive again.
**[07:45] Minami**
Like every part of my body.
**[07:48] Minami**
Now to enjoy some Japanese sweets.
**[07:49] Yu**
Yeah.

**[07:52] Yu**
They go so well together.
**[07:54] Rina**
What is it...
**[07:55] Rina**
What is it...
**[07:58] Yu**
- I don't know.
-It's kurikinton!
**[08:00] Minami**
Yeah, it is!
**[08:02] Rina**
- It's totally kurikinton!
- Gifu is known for it.
**[08:04] Yu/Minami**

- Oh, really?
**[08:07] Rina**
Kurikinton!
**[08:09] Yu**
Of course, it's delicious!
**[08:11] Rina**
You're a chestnut voice actress.
**[08:14] Yu**
Yeah, I love chestnuts. Though,
I haven't mentioned that recently.
**[08:19] Minami**
This little hidden room
**[08:23] Yu**
is like a secret base.
**[08:25] Minami**
Drinking tea and enjoying sweets here
**[08:29] Minami**
makes me feel more refined.
**[08:31] Yu**
Refined ladies.
**[08:33] Minami**
You think so?
**[08:34] Rina**

*I wonder what they'll all make.*

**[00:03] him**
* It's been two weeks*
* since I started school.*
**[00:05] him**
*I've gotten used to life here in Tajima.*
**[00:09] him**
*But...*
**[00:17] (Flashback) tou**
Now you're officially
part of the pottery club.
**[00:19] (Flashback) tou**
I can't wait to see what you'll
make for the fall contest.
**[00:24] him**
*It felt so nice when I joined, but...*
**[00:28] (Flashback) tou**
Oh, that?
**[00:30] (Flashback) tou**
That was a plate I entered last year.
**[00:34] him**
The pressure's on already...
**[00:39] him**
*I wonder if I can really do this.*
**[00:42] nao**
Hime-chan!
**[00:43] Him**
Nao-chan!
**[00:45] nao**
Where's Kurikuri-chan?
**[00:46] him**
She's out buying some
equipment with Touko-senpai.
**[00:49] nao**
I see.
**[00:52] nao**
Common.
**[00:53] Him**
Huh?
**[00:54] nao**
You're common.
**[00:55] Him**
That's a sudden diss.
**[00:57] nao**
You've got round eyes and
features like a tanuki.
**[01:00] Him**
I don't follow.
**[01:02] nao**
And I love tanuki!
**[01:06] nao**
I'm going to the Rescue Club
today, so see ya!
**[01:10] Him**
Rescue... Club?
***SIGN*** The Pottery Club is Paradise
**[02:49] Him**
I wanted some advice from Nao-chan.
**[02:55] (Flashback) Mik**
Just make whatever you like!
**[03:00] Him**
What do I like though?
**[03:05] Him**
I don't know enough to say...
**[03:08] Him**
Pottery...
**[03:16] Him**
This place is such a mess!
***SIGN*** Tokishirou
**[03:19] sac**
I wonder if she can keep up with the club.
**[03:22] tok**
Huh?
**[03:23] sac**
The kids here start shaping
dirt in kindergarten.
**[03:28] tok**
I did, now that you mention it...
**[03:30] sac**
I hope she's not feeling
completely out of place.
**[03:33] tok**
I'm sure she'll manage somehow.
**[03:35] tok**
She has a surprisingly bold side to her.
**[03:38] tok**
I'm more worried about her being too clumsy.
**[03:42] Wom**
That's true.
**[03:54] Mik**
Morning!
**[03:57] Mik**
Wh-What's wrong?
**[04:00] Him**
I'm so sorry!
**[04:01] Him**
I tried to clean up, and
I ended up breaking this cup!
**[04:08] Tom**
Don't worry. That's how it's supposed to be.
**[04:14] Tom**
This part is called koudai, the foot, and
that little missing part is on purpose.
**[04:20] Him**
So I didn't break it?
**[04:22] Him**
I'm so glad.
**[04:23] Tom**
Hagi ware cups often have those.
**[04:26] Mik**
Right, right!
**[04:27] Mik**
They're called kiri-koudai,
right, Touko-senpai?
**[04:30] tou**
That's right!
**[04:33] tou**
The foot can be quite different, too.
**[04:36] tou**
Like on this Bizen piece.
**[04:38] tou**
Or this Karatsu piece. See?
**[04:42] Him**
Mino ware sure has a lot of variety, huh?
**[04:47] Him**
What, what?
**[04:48] Him**
Why are you looking at me like that?
**[04:49] tou**
What I just showed you
weren't Mino ware pieces,
**[04:53] tou**
they are examples of pottery
from all over the country.
**[05:00] Mik**
I got it!
**[05:04] Mik**
Japan, cha cha cha!
**[05:06] Mik**
Japan, cha cha cha!
**[05:08] Mik**
Japan, cha cha cha!
**[05:08] nao**
I know this cheer from ballet.
**[05:10] Him**
Oh, you scared me.
**[05:12] nao**
But it apparently originated from soccer.
**[05:14] Him**
What happened to the Rescue Club?
**[05:16] nao**
I'm just helping out by being registered.
**[05:18] nao**
My main occupation is
Toyokawa Hime researcher.
**[05:21] Him**
What now?
**[05:22] Mik**
I'm done!
**[05:24] nao**
What do we need a map of Japan for?
**[05:26] Mik**
We'll take all the different
kinds of pottery in this room
**[05:29] Mik**
and place them on the
place where they're from!
**[05:33] tou**
Let's start with Mino ware.
**[05:35] tou**
It originates from the Tounou region.
**[05:38] Him**
So small! So cute!
**[05:40] Mik**
It's a miniature.
**[05:41] Mik**
We got a bunch of them. I'll bring them over!
**[05:43] tou**
Tounou has Japan's biggest
pottery production base.
**[05:47] tou**
They make roughly half of
all the pottery in Japan.
**[05:50] Hin**
What? Half?
**[05:52] Hin**
I didn't know this region was so amazing!
**[05:56] Mik**
In four-four time, we're
going to start in the north!
**[05:59] Mik**
Are you okay?
**[06:01] tou**
What?
**[06:02] nao**
Let's just do it.
**[06:07] Mik**
Ceramics map!
**[06:09] Mik**
Tochigi prefecture's Mashiko ware.
**[06:11] Mik**
Ishigawa prefecture's Kutani ware.
**[06:13] Mik**
Fukui prefecture has?
**[06:14] Mik**
Echizen ware.
**[06:15] Mik**
Aichi prefecture has two:
Tokoname ware and Seto ware.
**[06:18] Mik**
Shiga prefecture has Shigaraki ware.
Kyoto prefecture has Kyou ware.
**[06:20] Mik**
Hyougo's tradition...
**[06:21] tou**
T-Tamba ware.
**[06:22] Mik**
Okayama prefecture's Bizen ware.
**[06:25] nao**
Yamaguchi prefecture has Hagi ware.
**[06:27] nao**
Saga has Karatsu.
**[06:28] nao**
Arita has Imari!
**[06:29] Mik**
And the final blow is
Kagoshima's Satsuma ware.
**[06:31] both**
Yay!
**[06:33] Him**
Wow!
**[06:34] tou**
You sure know a lot about this.
**[06:36] nao**
Oh, just some stuff I picked up
in a trivia book.
**[06:40] nao**
Now I feel kind of awkward.
**[06:45] Him**
Wow, pottery is made in so many places!
**[06:48] Him**
I wonder if all of these regions
have their own pottery clubs.
**[06:51] Mik**
They might.
**[06:54] nao**
Oh, and we can't forget this pompoko.
**[06:57] nao**
There.
**[06:58] Him**
Why a tanuki?
**[07:01] Him**
You're giving me that look again!
**[07:03] nao**
You know, they have them
in front of udon shops.
***SIGN*** Udon
***SIGN*** Open for business
**[07:05] Him**
Those are ceramic too?
**[07:07] Him**
So pottery isn't just cups and plates.
**[07:10] nao**
Everybody knows that.
**[07:11] nao**
And then there's this, too.
**[07:15] Him**
Toilets, too? Really?
**[07:16] nao**
How do you not know that?
**[07:17] nao**
You're hopeless.
**[07:19] tou**
There, there.
**[07:21] Mik**
Then for the purpose of further study...
**[07:26] Mik**
We should go to the Fuji ice cream shop.
**[07:30] Mik**
Let us learn... Let us learn...
**[07:34] Mik**
About Tajimi's pottery...
**[07:40] Mik**
What, what? A UFO?
**[07:42] nao**
I get excited every time
I see this utility pole.
**[07:50] Him**
You really are something else, Nao-chan.
**[07:53] nao**
Those little white things
are ceramic, too.
**[07:56] Mik**
Oh, wow!
**[07:58] tou**
Those are insulators.
**[07:59] tou**
Ceramics don't conduct electricity,
**[08:01] tou**
so they're perfect for insulating
the utility pole from the wires.
**[08:08] tou**
These mosaic tiles are also ceramic.
**[08:10] Him**
I didn't know!
**[08:12] Mik**
This is a collaboration piece we
all made together in grade school.
**[08:16] Him**
That's a thing, too?
**[08:18] nao**
In kindergarden, I drew a
picture for the Memorial Tiles.
**[08:21] nao**
They're at the station's south entrance.
**[08:23] him**
I don't remember seeing those.
**[08:25] tou**
They're part of the pavement,
so they're hard to notice.
***SIGN*** Nagase
**[08:30] Him**
There are ceramics all over the place, huh?
**[08:33] Mik**
Tajimi isn't called a
pottery town for nothing!
**[08:37] Mik**
There's amazing stuff this way, too!
**[08:39] Mik**
Come on, hurry up!
**[08:42] Him**
Okay!
**[08:44] him**
Okay...
**[08:50] Mik**
Mino ware of a kappa couple!
**[08:53] Him**
Why.. Why kappa, though?
**[08:55] Mik**
Supposedly, some important person
over in the shopping district
**[08:58] Mik**
had a dream where a kappa told them:
"You gotta make a kappa square!"
**[09:02] Him**
It's impressive that they actually
made them based on that.
**[09:06] tou**
The color is really nice though, huh?
**[09:08] tou**
It really has that special
Mino ware feel to it.
**[09:11] Him**
It must have been really hard
to fire such big pieces.
**[09:14] tou**
They were actually fired as separate
pieces and then assembled here.
**[09:19] Him**
You can put the pieces
together like that as well?!
**[09:22] Him**
* So it's not just cups and*
* plates you can make,*
**[09:23] mik**
Did you know your grades go up
if you touch this Kappa's head?
**[09:26] Him**
*but something dynamic or free...*
**[09:27] mik**
Hime-chan, you should touch it, too!
**[09:28] tou**
Mika-chan, you shouldn't climb that.
**[09:29] Him**
*Pottery is so...*
**[09:34] Mik**
She fell in!
**[09:37] Mik**
I'm going home.
**[09:38] Mik**
You guys go to the Fuji ice cream store.
**[09:42] tou**
I'll walk you home.
**[09:44] tou**
Naruse-san, please take Toyokawa-san there.
**[09:47] Him**
We can just go next time.
**[09:49] tou**
You should go since it's your first time.
**[09:53] Mik**
You should.
**[09:55] Mik**
I'm so cold. I want to take this off.
**[09:58] tou**
You can't.
**[09:59] tou**
Bye, and sorry about that.
**[10:01] Him**
No problem!
**[10:02] Him**
See you tomorrow, Kukuri-chan.
**[10:04] Mik**
I'm skipping tomorrow.
**[10:06] tou**
No, you're not.
***SIGN*** Fuji Ice Cream
***SIGN*** Jiman'yaki
**[10:08] Sto**
And here are the jiman'yaki.
**[10:10] Sto**
One bean paste and one chocolate.
**[10:11] Sto**
Thank you!
**[10:17] Him**
I'm really surprised the top
recommendation is not ice cream.
**[10:20] nao**
The kyohou grape ice cream
has my approval, too.
**[10:22] nao**
Let's have that next time.
**[10:32] nao**
It's the six o'clock music.
**[10:34] Hime**
Today turned out to be pretty good.
**[10:37] nao**
Googoogood googoogood googoogood good!
**[10:41] nao**
How auspicious.
**[10:43] Hime**
You're being weird again.
**[10:45] Hime**
But you know, Touko-senpai and
Kukuri-chan are kind of odd.
**[10:49] nao**
I get what you mean.
**[10:50] nao**
Senpai is tired of Kurikuri-chan's
antics, but still nice.
**[10:54] Him**
Is that what childhood friends are like?
**[10:58] nao**
We have that too, you know.
**[11:00] Him**
Huh?
**[11:01] nao**
We're kind of like old-time friends.
**[11:04] Him**
Kind of?
**[11:05] nao**
And you're common.
**[11:07] Him**
Back to that, huh?
**[11:11] Him**
I'm back!
**[11:13] tok**
Welcome home.
**[11:14] koi**
Welcome home, Toyokawa-san.
**[11:16] Him**
Koizumi-sensei?
**[11:19] Him**
Did I do something wrong?
**[11:21] Koi**
Not at all. I'm just here as a customer.
**[11:23] Koi**
I love coffee.
**[11:25] Him**
Oh, good.
**[11:28] Him**
So how's my father's coffee?
**[11:30] Koi**
The bitterness and acidity is really perfect.
**[11:32] Koi**
Just the way I like it.
**[11:34] Koi**
I was going to buy a coffee pass,
**[11:36] Koi**
but he said you don't have those.
**[11:38] Him**
A coffee pass?
**[11:40] Koi**
Most coffee shops in the
Tokai region have them.
**[11:43] Koi**
You pre-pay for the drinks all at once.
**[11:45] Koi**
Then, you leave the pass
at the cafe and can drink
**[11:47] Koi**
coffee without needing
to have any money on you.
**[11:50] Wom**
We didn't think of that.
**[11:52] Wom**
We should just throw that together
on the computer real quick.
**[11:54] Him**
Yeah!
**[11:56] Koi**
So how's the pottery club?
**[11:57] Koi**
I'm actually the advisor.
**[11:59] Him**
Oh, I didn't know that!
**[12:01] Koi**
But since I don't know much about it,
I'm always relying on Aoki-san.
**[12:06] Him**
I've been feeling like...
**[12:08] Him**
I have to make something
proper and spectacular.
**[12:12] Him**
I was kind of nervous about it,
**[12:15] Him**
but I'm fine now!
**[12:17] Him**
I found out today that there are
actually all kinds of ceramics!
**[12:21] Koi**
That's right!
**[12:22] Koi**
There are even kappa and tanukis.
**[12:25] Him**
Right!
**[12:27] Him**
Speaking of, Nao-chan told me today
that I remind her of a tanuki.
**[12:31] Dad**
A tanuki, huh?
**[12:33] Him**
You're laughing, too?
**[12:36] Dad**
Sounds good, though. The tanuki of Tajimi.
**[12:39] Him**
Now I get it! I'm the tanuki of Tajimi,
**[12:42] Him**
and tanuki are commonly seen here!
**[12:43] Dad**
Huh?
**[12:45] Him**
Mystery solved!
***SIGN*** This is sudden, but I got it!
***SIGN*** This is sudden, but I got it! Because I'm the tanuki of Tajimi!
***SIGN*** This is sudden, but I got it! Because I'm the tanuki of Tajimi! So that's why I'm 'common'.
***SIGN*** Sherlock Holmes.
***SIGN*** Huh?
***SIGN*** This is sudden, but I got it! Because I'm the tanuki of Tajimi! So that's why I'm 'common'. Huh?
***SIGN*** Sherlock Holmes I meant, you got it.
**[13:02] Him**
Wait...
**[13:04] Him**
What do you mean now?!
***SIGN*** Mini Mini Pottery Club
**[14:25] MIk**
That Kurikuri gal sure is noisy.
***SIGN*** God
***SIGN*** Mad Demon
**[14:27] MIk**
Really noisy.
**[14:29] MIk**
But even a saint has limited patience.
**[14:32] MIk**
Be careful!
**[14:33] MIk**
Next time, "We're

***SIGN*** Next Time

**[01:06] nar**
*First, our teacher tells us what to do.*
**[01:09] Teach**
There is a basic posture.
**[01:11] Teach**
You put your elbows firmly on
your knees and lock your arms
***SIGN*** How to Make a Mug
Put your elbows on top of your knees
to make sure your hands don't shake
**[01:14] Teach**
so your hands don't shake.
This is quite important.
**[01:17] Teach**
You hold it from the top, lightly,
wrap your hands around it.
***SIGN*** How to Make a Mug
Wrapping the clay with both hands,
use your thumbs to make a hole
**[01:22] Teach**
Then you start by putting
just one of your thumbs in.
**[01:27] Teach**
Next, you put both thumbs
into the hole you made.
***SIGN*** How to Make a Mug
Insert both thumbs to spread out the clay
**[01:30] Teach**
Moving out from the center, you go out to the
edges and make the hole bigger and bigger.
**[01:33] wom**
Wow, look!
**[01:35] Wom**
That's amazing!
**[01:37] teach**
And make it wider.
**[01:39] Teach**
Using three fingers on each hand,
hold it from both sides of the wall,
***SIGN*** How to Make a Mug
Using three fingers, press together
and then stretch and make it taller
**[01:44] Teach**
then slowly move upwards.
**[01:46] wom**
WOW!!
**[01:47] wom**
That's like magic.
**[01:48] wom**
Yes, magic!
**[01:49] wom**
That's amazing!
**[01:50] wom**
Incredible.
**[01:52] wom**
The cup is already done!
**[01:53] wom**
Right?
**[01:55] nar**
* Now that we learned from our teacher,*
* it's finally time for us to try!*
***SIGN*** Starting the Hands-On Pottery Experience
**[02:00] Teach**
We'll start right away.
**[02:02] Teach**
First wet your hands.
***SIGN*** Make a hole by inserting your thumbs
**[02:04] Teach**
Hold it at the top, like you're
wrapping your hands around it.
**[02:08] Teach**
While you have it wrapped, insert
one of your thumbs in the middle.
**[02:13] Yellow**
I'm going in!
**[02:14] Teach**
Up until the first joint, just go for it.
**[02:19] wom**
I put it in.
**[02:19] Teach**
You did it!
**[02:21] wom**
It's kind of soft!
**[02:23] Red**
This feels kind of new.
**[02:24] wom**
Yeah, this is new!
**[02:26] Purp**
This feels good!
**[02:28] tea**
Did you get your hole made?
**[02:29] wom**
This softness...
**[02:31] Blue**
Hehe, this is fun.
**[02:33] Teach**
I think everybody's got their hole made.
**[02:36] Teach**
All right, and now we're going to put
in both thumbs and start to stretch it.
***SIGN*** Insert both thumbs to spread out the clay
**[02:39] wom**
Here I go.
**[02:40] wom**
Oh wow!
**[02:42] Teach**
Stretch it until it reaches
your desired cup size.
**[02:45] wom**
It'll be a mug right, how big should that be?
**[02:48] wom**
I don't know, mine feels
pretty hard. I think I can't.
**[02:51] wom**
You need more force than I thought.
**[02:52] Other**
You do.
**[02:53] tea**
From the center out.
**[02:55] Blue**
Oh, no.
**[02:57] tea**
It'll be fine.
**[02:59] blue**
It doesn't want to be
the shape I want at all.
**[03:01] blue**
This is super hard.
**[03:03] wom**
Yours is doing something crazy.
**[03:05] wom**
It's so dynamic.
**[03:07] wom**
Crazy, what's happening?
**[03:09] blue**
Really, what is this?
**[03:12] Pink**
Widen it and...
**[03:14] Pink**
Wait I made it too wide,
that's not a mug anymore.
**[03:16] Pink**
Is this a plate?
**[03:18] wom**
Hold on.
**[03:20] Purp**
I don't know if this is right or wrong.
**[03:23] Yell**
Uh oh, it looks like I started
to do it my own way.
**[03:26] Yell**
This is like, my own way.
**[03:28] Green**
Isn't that too wide? Too wide!
**[03:30] wom**
Oh, crap!
**[03:32] nar**
* For this step, adjusting the*
* amount of force in your fingers*
**[03:36] nar**
* is actually quite delicate*
* and is harder than it looks!*
**[03:41] Teach**
It's widened out nicely.
**[03:41] Green**
That's nice.
**[03:44] Teach**
Let's move on to the walls.
**[03:47] Teach**
Your left hand is on the outside,
the right hand in inside.
***SIGN*** Using three fingers, press
together and then stretch
**[03:52] Teach**
Use three fingers on each side of the wall.
**[03:54] Teach**
Like that. Then you go straight up.
**[03:59] Red**
*It's starting to look like a mug.*
**[04:05] Yell**
This is fun!
**[04:07] Yell**
It's fun!
**[04:10] wom**
I could get into this...
**[04:12] nar**
*But, then!*
**[04:14] Yell**
Now I've done it!
**[04:16] wom**
Now I've done it.
**[04:22] pink**
You see that a lot.
**[04:28] Green**
I don't think this can be fixed.
**[04:29] Teach**
You need to start over.
**[04:32] wom**
The lesson is, I must not get too cocky.
**[04:37] wom**
The moment I thought I knew
what I was doing, it broke.
**[04:41] nar**
*Meanwhile, I, Serizawa, was...*
**[04:45] Pink**
This is cute. It looks like an apple.
**[04:47] ser**
This looks like an apple. Maybe
I should make it into an apple.
**[04:51] ser**
Should I make it into an apple?
**[04:56] ser**
It's so cute. I really like this little guy.
**[05:03] pink**
Wait, this looks like it
would be a pain to wash.
**[05:07] ser**
Umm...
**[05:07] wom**
Yours looks so artsy!
**[05:10] Yell**
Pudding! It looks like a pudding cup!
**[05:14] ser**
It's an apple.
**[05:18] wom**
This is hard!
**[05:20] Pink**
Physical, mental...
Something's being used here.
**[05:25] wom**
Making it even is hard.
**[05:30] wom**
It's kind of crooked.
**[05:34] wom**
Come on. You got this.
**[05:39] txt**
Ten Minutes Later
**[05:44] wom**
I got it into a cute shape.
**[05:48] wom**
Yay! I'm happy with this.
**[05:50] wom**
I made a mug.
**[05:53] ser**
OK, I think I'm done with mine.
**[05:58] wom**
We're all done.
**[05:59] wom**
They're all very different!
***SIGN*** Decide on the handle design and on the color of the fired piece

*The last step is deciding on the handle design*
**[06:08] nar**
* and color you want for the*

**[06:12] wom**
We all made different shapes.
**[06:14] wom**
Our individual personalities shine through.
**[06:16] ser**
Yeah.
**[06:18] wom**
What do you think you'd like to use this for?
**[06:20] hon**
I really like soup so I made it bigger.
***SIGN*** Honizumi Rina's piece
**[06:22] wom**
Oh right, soup!
**[06:23] wom**
Yeah.
**[06:24] hon**
I thought putting soup in here would be nice.
**[06:26] wom**
That makes sense.
**[06:28] hon**
What about you, Minami?
**[06:29] tan**
Well, I'm a bit of a black tea fan.
***SIGN*** Tanaka Minami's piece
**[06:32] wom**
Nice.
**[06:33] tan**
So I'm thinking I'll be
using this for black tea.
**[06:34] wom**
Yeah, it kind of has that wider mouth?
**[06:35] tan**
Exactly.
**[06:37] wom**
Wakai is only thinking about coffee.
***SIGN*** Wakai Yuki's piece
**[06:39] wom**
But it looks the part!
**[06:41] wom**
It's really classy.
**[06:43] wak**
A coffee cup.
**[06:43] wak**
But yours is so unique.
**[06:45] ser**
It's an apple.
**[06:46] wak**
She was saying apple, apple the whole time.
***SIGN*** Serizawa Yu's piece
**[06:48] wak**
I was wondering what she meant!
**[06:50] ser**
I made an apple.
**[06:52] wom**
Ah, I see.
**[06:53] hon**
Another one of my dreams just came true.
**[06:55] tan**
Right?
**[06:56] wak**
All of us having fun together was great.
**[06:59] wak**
Like you can imagine Himeno
and the girls doing this
**[07:02] wak**
when they're in their club, right?
**[07:04] ser**
It was a little too fun though,
so I hope I wasn't too
**[07:06] ser**
engrossed to get this point across.
**[07:07] wom**
Right?
**[07:08] wak**
I could get into this.
**[07:12] tan**
I totally lost track of time.
**[07:13] Green**
If you lose control, it's over.
**[07:14] tan**
Right, right.
**[07:15] tan**
One wobble and it's bad.
**[07:17] wak**
Like when I'd done it.
**[07:18] wak**
I just started thinking that
I was getting the hang of it.
**[07:22] wak**
So then I tried to do it my
way and... just messed it up.
**[07:26] wak**
It just shows how important these
delicate feelings are for this.
**[07:35] white**
One Month Later
**[07:36] Nar**
*One month later, our mugs have been fired!*
**[07:40] wom**
I was waiting for this day for so long!

We've got talent
**[08:00] pink**
Yeah, we have talent.
**[08:03] wom**
This is crazy.
**[08:04] ser**
They're pretty individual, too.
**[08:06] wom**
Like, we could sell these?
**[08:08] wom**
We could!
**[08:08] ser**
Are we allowed to sell these?!
**[08:09] wom**
No, we're not doing that!
**[08:11] wom**
Yu-chan's looks like an apple!
***SIGN*** Serizawa Yu's piece

I'm so happy I can't stop grinning!
***SIGN*** Wakai Yuki's piece

**[00:02] Him**
* May with its cool early summer*
* breeze is already halfway over...*
**[00:07] Him**
* Ever since I officially*
* joined the pottery club,*
**[00:10] Him**
*I've been playing with the clay nonstop.*
**[00:14] Him**
*This is called clay kneading.*
**[00:17] Him**
* It's a technique to even out*
* the clay's hardness.*
**[00:21] Him**
* Stronger people can simply use*
* their hands, but we use our feet.*
**[00:27] Both**
That's so cold!
**[00:31] Him**
* Then I tried making all*
* kinds of pottery with it.*
**[00:35] Him**
*This is a technique called hand-building.*
**[00:37] Him**
* You can use it like children's clay*
* to make all kinds of shapes.*
**[00:40] Him**
*It reminds me of grade school.*
**[00:43] Him**
* Kukuri-chan seems to prefer*
* this method over the wheel.*
***SIGN*** Order: Sea Anemone
**[00:49] him**
*She's making a mysterious... something.*
**[00:53] him**
*This method is called slab-building.*
**[00:55] him**
*Uniform-sized clay pieces are called slabs.*
**[01:00] him**
* Using the slab thickness*
* guides on either side,*
**[01:02] him**
*you can make slabs of the same thickness.*
**[01:06] him**
*By pushing the slabs into forms,*
**[01:09] him**
*you can make any number of identical plates.*
**[01:12] him**
*I was pretty impressed!*
**[01:14] him**
*But with its high difficulty,*
**[01:17] him**
* I think it pays off the most to*
* work on the pottery wheel...*
**[01:20] him**
* This step is calling coning*
* the clay up and down.*
**[01:24] him**
* While you're doing it, you can*
* kind of quiet your thoughts*
**[01:27] him**
* and you start to almost feel*
* affectionate towards the clay.*
**[01:31] him**
* Once you've done all this properly,*
* you're finally ready to begin.*
***SIGN*** Because We're Childhood Friends... Right?
**[03:09] tou**
Oh, right. Toyokawa-san?
**[03:11] Him**
Yes?
**[03:12] tou**
Maybe we should start firing
your pieces in the kiln.
**[03:16] tou**
You've gotten the hang of it, right?
**[03:18] Him**
Yes!
**[03:19] Mik**
Really?
**[03:25] tou**
Have you decided what you're making?
**[03:26] Him**
Yeah. I thought I'd make a teacup.
**[03:29] Him**
There's this teacup I've been using ever
since grade school and I do like it,
**[03:35] Him**
but lately I've been thinking it would
be nice if it was just a little bigger.
**[03:38] tou**
You're starting out with
something that hard, huh?
**[03:40] Him**
Huh? Are teacups hard?
**[03:43] tou**
I'm talking more about the size.
**[03:45] tou**
The clay shrinks once you fire it,
**[03:47] tou**
so you have to take that into consideration.
**[03:49] Him**
How much does it shrink?
**[03:51] tou**
Well...
**[03:53] Him**
Yes?
**[03:55] tou**
...you'll have to fire it to find out.
**[03:57] Him**
Really?!
**[04:00] tou**
They say it's around 15% or so,
**[04:03] tou**
but it can vary depending on
the clay, its consistency,
**[04:06] tou**
and how long you fire it.
**[04:08] Him**
I see. That is hard.
**[04:12] tou**
Why don't you try a few different sizes?
**[04:14] tou**
One of them is bound to
come out the right size.
**[04:17] Him**
Sure...
**[04:19] tou**
Don't worry too much
about the small details.
**[04:21] tou**
Just try it.
**[04:24] Him**
Okay!
**[04:25] Mik**
That's right!
**[04:26] Mik**
Don't sweat the small details.
**[04:30] nao**
Small break, small break.

Mika-chan, how long are you
going to keep playing around?
**[04:36] Mik**
I'm not playing around.
**[04:39] Mik**
I'm kind of drawing a blank
**[04:41] Mik**
so I'm waiting for the Pottery God
to give me some inspiration!
**[04:43] tou**
You've been saying that for three days.
**[04:46] tou**
I wonder when God is planning this visit.
**[04:48] Mik**
You'll have to ask him.
**[04:53] tou**
Stay calm, stay calm.
**[05:02] nao**
Advance, Gifu Castle Robot!
**[05:06] nao**
Rise, Gifu Castle Robot!
**[05:10] Him**
Why'd you pick that, Nao-chan?
**[05:13] nao**
Because I've got Gifu Love!
**[05:14] Him**
Gifu Love?
**[05:15] nao**
Replacing Inabayama Castle
on Mount Kinka,
**[05:19] nao**
Gifu Castle is relevant to the
birth of the name "Gifu."
**[05:21] nao**
It's also Obu Nobutada's
death date soon.
**[05:23] Him**
Oda Nobutada?
**[05:28] Him**
I guess this would be a good size.
**[05:31] Him**
Or maybe more like this?
**[05:33] Him**
But if I fire it...
**[05:38] Him**
Maybe I should just make a plate for curry...
**[05:41] Him**
Or a tumbler for lassi
when I'm eating curry.
**[05:47] Him**
Why is everything about curry?
**[05:54] Him**
So this is why!
**[05:56] Dad**
What's up?
**[05:57] Him**
How come you're making curry?
**[05:59] Dad**
The customers were saying
that toast, rice pilaf,
**[06:02] Dad**
and yakisoba aren't enough.
**[06:04] Him**
Well, don't make it right
before I'm going to bed!
**[06:05] Him**
I'll want to have some!
**[06:07] Dad**
Sorry. I was thinking if I should
somehow make it more Tajimi-esque.
**[06:12] Dad**
Which do you like best?
***SIGN*** Eel Gohei mochi Kappa Hottest place in Arakawa Toyozou curry curry curry Japan curry curry

She's right.
**[06:57] HIm**
Touko-senpai, you're really amazing.
**[07:00] HIm**
It's like you've already mastered the way.
**[07:03] tou**
I'm not amazing at all.
**[07:06] tou**
It's just that this is
the only thing I can do.
**[07:08] Him**
The only thing, huh?

No! Help!

Please, Naruse-san!

No way, that sounds so embarrassing!

If you aren't going to take
this seriously, get out!
**[07:47] Mik**
So that's... what you think about me.
**[07:53] Mik**
I'm not fooling around at all!
**[07:55] Mik**
You're such a jerk!
**[08:06] tou**
I'm sorry for raising my voice like that.
**[08:10] Him**
You're not going to go after her?
**[08:13] tou**
Don't worry. She'll be back soon.
***SIGN*** Closed
**[08:21] Old**
How many variations is that now?
**[08:25] Man**
Eight. But I hope to
narrow it down to three.
**[08:29] Old**
You're really going after this.
**[08:32] Man**
Maybe I'm overthinking it.
**[08:34] Old**
I think it's fine.
**[08:48] Him**
Should we have a tea break?
**[08:52] tou**
That sounds good.
**[08:57] Him**
Is any cup okay for you?
**[08:59] tou**
Yes.
**[09:00] Him**
Great, I had picked one out.
**[09:05] Him**
This one is for you, senpai.
**[09:09] Him**
It's not the right season,
but I thought it was cute.
**[09:12] nao**
Kyooot! I didn't know
we had a cup like that.
**[09:14] tou**
There's something charming about this Santa.
**[09:17] nao**
Like he's saying, I'm outta here.
**[09:19] Him**
What is that supposed to mean?
**[09:21] tou**
There's even a present inside.
**[09:24] nao**
Huh?
**[09:25] nao**
You're right! Tea with a sock in it!
**[09:28] tou**
Don't say it that way.
**[09:31] tou**
It's made so that you only see the present
once you finish your coffee or milk tea.
**[09:36] Him**
That's fun! See, that's why I picked it,
**[09:40] Him**
even though the shape is a little awkward.
**[09:45] tou**
It is fun, huh....
**[09:50] tou**
Mika-chan made that last year.
**[09:53] tou**
She was hanging out in
here over summer break.
**[09:58] tou**
I really like her pieces.
**[10:07] tou**
She's always so loud and such a handful,
**[10:10] tou**
but once she's working with
the clay, she's truly alive.
**[10:17] tou**
My grandfather was a potter and
he started teaching me early on,
**[10:22] tou**
and he praised me a lot when
I made something properly.
**[10:25] tou**
I kept going because I enjoyed that feeling.
**[10:29] tou**
At some point, I realized that I had become
used to always making things properly.
**[10:37] tou**
To be honest, I wish I could make
things more freely like her.
**[10:49] tou**
Mika-chan said that she wants to make
pieces that will make people smile.
**[10:59] tou**
Excuse me...
**[11:00] Him**
Senpai?
**[11:05] tou**
Mika-chan?
**[11:10] MIk**
What took you so long?
**[11:17] MIk**
I already finished it. The new design.
**[11:25] tou**
That's cute!
**[11:27] Mik**
I'm sorry.
**[11:30] tou**
I'm the one who should say sorry.
**[11:34] tou**
There are snacks inside.
**[11:36] Mik**
I'll have some!
**[11:40] Him**
My dad just texted me.
**[11:42] Him**
"I finished the new curry recipes."
**[11:46] Him**
"How about inviting your
school friends to be the taste testers?"
**[11:51] Him**
...is the message.
**[11:54] Dad**
Hatchou-miso curry. Eel curry.
Tajimi yakisoba curry.
**[11:58] Dad**
I came up with each of these myself
and I'm quite confident about them.
**[12:01] Dad**
Go ahead and eat!
**[12:03] Girls**
Thank you!
**[12:05] Dad**
How is it?
**[12:07] Him**
It's good.
**[12:09] Dad**
Really?
**[12:10] Mik**
This is mega delicious!
**[12:12] Dad**
I see, good!
**[12:13] tou**
I mean it, this is really tasty.
**[12:15] Dad**
Thank you, thank you!
**[12:17] nao**
But...
**[12:20] nao**
You know that all of these already exist, right?
**[12:23] Dad**
Huh?
**[12:23] nao**
See?
**[12:25] dad**
Oh, my!
**[12:28] dad**
Well, if nothing else, my curry
put a smile on all of your faces!
**[12:34] mik**
You're so positive.
**[12:36] Dad**
This is but my first step on the long
journey to create my own original curry dish!
**[12:42] Him**
*Smiles, huh?*
**[12:46] Mik**
Do this like this here... That's great!
**[12:49] Mik**
Touko-senpai, look! Look!
**[12:51] tou**
Yeah, that's cute!
**[12:53] tou**
But, be a bit quieter while you make it.
**[12:56] Mik**
Got it! But...

**[04:29] wak**
I love anything spicy.
**[04:31] ser**
We're total opposites.
**[04:32] ser**
I like it sweet.
**[04:34] ser**
Something like the Petite
Prince curry for children.
**[04:36] wom**
But that's quite good!
**[04:38] wom**
I like it, too.
**[04:39] All**
What about green curry?
**[04:40] wom**
I really love green curry!
**[04:42] wom**
Oh, yeah. That's good.
**[04:43] hon**
The coconut is green, right?
**[04:44] wom**
Right, so I think I'm really
into curry with coconut in it.
**[04:47] all**
Yeah, it's really good.
**[04:48] all**
I see.
**[04:50] wom**
I like when there's tomatoes in it.
**[04:52] wom**
I'll add canned tomatoes in there.
**[04:55] wom**
I could eat that, too.
**[04:56] wom**
I like tomatoes.
**[04:57] ser**
You seem like someone who cooks.
**[04:59] wom**
I only cook when I'm in
the right mood for it.
**[05:02] wom**
I try to dirty as few dishes as possible,
**[05:05] wom**
to try to, you know, boost the volume of it.
**[05:10] wom**
Something simple.
**[05:11] wom**
Right. Things like stews and stuff.
**[05:14] wom**
I'm never really super motivated to cook.
**[05:17] wom**
When you live alone,
**[05:19] wom**
you can't really make one portion
from the ingredients you buy, right?
**[05:21] hon**
You can't.
**[05:22] wom**
There's always leftovers.
**[05:24] tan**
I make huge amounts.
**[05:26] all**
Yeah, me too!
**[05:26] all**
Me, too.
**[05:27] all**
I get that!
**[05:28] ser**
I just can't eat that much!
**[05:31] wom**
If you use a whole carrot,
or you use an entire onion...
**[05:36] wom**
Like if you're making omurice...
Say you're making one cup of omurice.
**[05:42] wom**
You mean an omurice with one cup of rice?
**[05:43] wom**
Right. But I thought that's normal.
**[05:46] wom**
And then−
**[05:47] wom**
Wait, wait. That'll end up
being like, this big.
**[05:50] wom**
Exactly.
**[05:50] wom**
One cup's a lot.
**[05:51] wom**
So then my omurice ends up
being my meals for two days.
**[05:56] wom**
That's breakfast, lunch, dinner.
**[05:57] wom**
Exactly, omurice for breakfast,
lunch, dinner, for two days.
**[06:01] wom**
That's crazy.
**[06:02] wom**
So you get six meals out of one cup of rice.
**[06:03] ser**
That's amazing.
**[06:06] wom**
Serizawa-san is a bit of
an amazing cook, though!
**[06:09] ser**
Who, me?!
**[06:10] wom**
She's really good.
**[06:12] wom**
Yu-chan would be.
**[06:12] ser**
I don't know if I'm that good,
but I can fillet fish.
**[06:15] All**
That's amazing!
**[06:16] ser**
Yes, I can fillet fish.
**[06:16] wom**
If you can say "I can fillet
fish", that's top tier.
**[06:20] ser**
I cut it into sashimi or use
the head for braised fish.
**[06:24] All**
That sounds so good!
**[06:24] All**
I want some!
**[06:25] wom**
You make braised fish head?
**[06:29] ser**
That's right.
**[06:29] ser**
I just take the head, chop it right in half.
**[06:30] wom**
So will you be going more in that direction?
**[06:33] wom**
Why are you laughing?
**[06:34] wom**
You know how to cook!
**[06:35] wom**
A voice actress, but also a fish expert.
**[06:39] man**
Here you go!

It's super delicious!

The moment you put it in your mouth... 〜Sweet!

This is some serious curry.
**[07:55] wom**
This was fun, huh?
**[07:56] wom**
We made stuff and ate delicious food.
**[08:00] wom**
We experienced so many different
things by coming to Tajimi.
**[08:05] wom**
We made things, then we got to
come to such a nice restaurant
**[08:10] wom**
to have curry.
**[08:12] wom**
Yeah!
**[08:13] wom**
This is the ultimate girls' trip.

Yeah, I want everybody to see them with us!

Everyone is so kind, I want

That teacher before,
she was so cute, like,

"I'm so nervous..."
**[08:28] wom**
She was so cute!
**[08:29] wom**
She was so nice.
**[08:31] ser**
Right?
**[08:32] ser**
I want everyone to meet her.

**[00:03] Hime**
*The rainy season has come to Tajimi as well.*
**[00:05] Hime**
*Day after day, it's wet and gloomy.*
**[00:10] Hime**
*I've finished multiple pieces, though.*
**[00:13] Hime**
*I'm starting to get excited.*
**[00:15] Hime**
* Or I was, until a small,*
* huge incident occurred.*
**[00:33] tok**
My... bowl...
**[00:36] Hime**
I-I'm so sorry!
**[00:41] tok**
Careful... Did you cut your leg?
**[00:45] Hime**
I'm fine.
**[00:46] tok**
I'm going to bring the vacuum cleaner.
**[00:48] tok**
Don't move.
**[00:50] tok**
Anything with a form is doomed to break.
**[00:53] tok**
All living things must die.
**[00:55] tok**
And all who meet, must part.
**[02:36] Hime**
So, that's why I'd like
to make a bowl for my father.
***SIGN*** The Taste of Ochazuke
**[02:43] Nao**
One you made yourself?
**[02:46] Tou**
Why not?
**[02:47] Tou**
This is the pottery club, after all.
**[02:49] Mik**
That's a great idea!
**[02:50] Mik**
The bar's pretty high, though.
**[02:52] Nao**
Wouldn't it be faster to just buy one?
**[02:54] Hime**
Of course, but this was his favorite bowl!
**[02:58] Hime**
He's been using it for so long!
**[03:00] Mik**
So long, you say?
**[03:01] Him**
Yeah.
**[03:02] Him**
Since I was in middle school.
**[03:06] Him**
Wait.
**[03:07] Him**
Maybe even before.
**[03:10] Him**
He's had it ever since I can remember.
**[03:13] Nao**
That's quite the attachment!
**[03:15] Hime**
That's why I was hoping that I could
make him one that looks exactly the same.
**[03:18] Tou**
What kind of bowl was it?
**[03:20] Hime**
A bowl for ochazuke.
**[03:22] Mik**
Why not just look at the broken pieces?
**[03:25] sac**
The broken bowl?
**[03:27] sac**
Yeah, those shards are dangerous,
so I threw them away.
**[03:30] sac**
Luckily, today was the collection day
for broken glass and ceramics.
**[03:32] sac**
They only take those
once every three months.
**[03:35] Hime**
Today, of all days...
**[03:40] Hime**
Was it something like this?
**[03:43] Mik**
It really leans to the left, huh.
**[03:46] Nao**
No, that's just the drawing...
**[03:48] Hime**
I must have seen that thing every day...
**[03:50] Tou**
Want to look for a similar one?
**[04:08] Hime**
The color was close to this,
**[04:11] Hime**
and the shape reminds me of this one.
**[04:14] Tou**
So your father prefers
a more subdued design.
**[04:17] Hime**
True.
**[04:21] Hime**
*I'll try making it while picturing it...*
**[04:28] (Flashback) tok**
Hmm,
**[04:30] (Flashback) tok**
some ochazuke with the
leftover sesame mackerel.
**[04:33] (Flashback) tok**
This is going to be good!
**[04:35] (Flashback) tok**
Ouch, that's hot!
**[04:41] Hime**
The results of my research.
**[04:43] Hime**
I believe it was about as
thick and deep as this!
**[04:47] Hime**
He does like to put a lot of tea in.
**[04:49] Tou**
Wouldn't a bowl that thick
and deep get quite heavy
**[04:52] Tou**
once filled with ochazuke?
**[04:54] Hime**
Maybe I had the wrong idea...
**[04:56] Mik**
If you think it'll get heavy,
why not add a handle?
**[04:59] Mik**
And then he could use a wooden
spoon when he's eating?
**[05:01] nao**
This has nothing to do with
the broken bowl anymore.
**[05:05] Tou**
Maybe so.
**[05:06] Tou**
Even if it's not exactly
like the other bowl,
**[05:09] Tou**
I think you should just make
a bowl that you think
**[05:12] Tou**
would be perfect for your father.
**[05:14] Hime**
Oh...
**[05:16] Hime**
You're right.
**[05:27] mik**
What? It's six already?
**[05:29] nao**
It's so hard to gauge the time
during the rainy season.
**[05:31] Tou**
Okay, then we're done for today.
**[05:34] All**
Okay!
**[05:58] Mik**
I brought you some provisions.
**[06:00] Him**
Wait, what?
**[06:01] Him**
Senpai, you're here, too?
**[06:03] Mik**
Since you told me that you'd be here
this morning working on the design,
**[06:07] Mik**
I brought her along.
**[06:09] Tou**
And? Did you get a good design done?
**[06:11] Him**
I'm not there yet, but I'm trying!
**[06:14] Tou**
Actually, I wanted to give you this.
**[06:16] Him**
Huh?
**[06:19] Tou**
They're pickled plums.
**[06:21] Tou**
I thought maybe your father might
want to have them with his ochazuke.
**[06:24] Him**
Oh, wow! Thank you!
**[06:27] Mik**
And then, and then!
**[06:28] Mik**
Until your bowl is done,
maybe this could be a stand-in!
**[06:32] Mik**
Ta da!
**[06:34] Him**
Wow, it's lovely!
**[06:35] Mik**
It's nice, huh? Senpai made it last year.
**[06:39] Him**
Last year? That's amazing.
**[06:41] Tou**
Mika-chan suddenly came to my
house and picked that out.
**[06:44] Tou**
I hope we're not imposing...
**[06:46] Him**
I'm super grateful!
**[06:48] Him**
Thank you for letting me use it!
**[06:51] tok**
It's from Aoki-san?
**[06:53] Him**
Yeah! She said we can borrow it until
you find something you really like.
**[06:57] sac**
Well that's quite a lovely piece.
**[07:00] sac**
You should try holding it, Toki-kun.
**[07:02] tok**
Hmm?
**[07:05] tok**
Oh, this is...
**[07:07] tok**
Yeah, it feels good!
**[07:11] Hime**
That looks delicious!
**[07:13] tok**
The simplicity of the bowl really
makes the pickled plums shine.
**[07:16] tok**
Thank you for this food.
**[07:29] tok**
What is this?
**[07:34] Him**
All in one go?
**[07:36] sac**
Just don't burn yourself, Toki-kun.
**[07:39] tok**
Thank you for the food!
**[07:49] Hime**
I was thinking of going
for something like this.
**[07:52] Hime**
My dad's favorite is salmon
ochazuke, so I was thinking of
**[07:54] Hime**
making something that
compliments the salmon.
**[07:57] Hime**
He always overstuffs the bowl,
**[07:58] Hime**
so I'd say that the ingredients
can only come up to about here.
**[08:01] Mik**
Ooh! Hime-chan, you're just
overflowing with love for your father!
**[08:05] Tou**
I think it's really wonderful.
**[08:07] Tou**
That's an invaluable source
of energy when making things.
**[08:10] Hime**
Okay.
**[08:11] Nao**
You're really going to smash this!
**[08:38] Hime**
Tomorrow I can finally paint them.
**[08:41] Hime**
I hope the bisque firing turned out well.
**[08:47] tok**
You know, I'm starting to feel sad
about having to return this bowl.
**[08:50] sac**
Is it really that good for ochazuke?
**[08:53] tok**
It's a lot like my old one when I hold it.
**[08:57] tok**
Like how gentle it feels in your hand.
**[08:59] sac**
Is it now?
**[09:00] tok**
It's quite impressive that she made
this in her first year of high school.
**[09:04] sac**
Isn't that around when the
other one was made, too?
**[09:08] tok**
Yes, it was also Himena's
first year of high school.
**[09:13] tok**
At first, she'd always give
me these weird pieces.
**[09:17] tok**
Almost like a prank.
**[09:18] tok**
So once I told her to give me
something I could actually use.
**[09:22] tok**
Then she made me that.
**[09:26] sac**
It lasted long then, 30 years.
**[09:31] tok**
The bottom had chipped quite some time ago,
**[09:33] tok**
and there were some cracks as well,
**[09:35] tok**
so it was really inevitable.
**[09:40] Him**
*The bar's way up there now...*
**[09:49] Him**
But I have to do it!
**[09:53] Him**
*It's been two weeks since then.*
**[09:55] Him**
*I focused on nothing but that one bowl.*
**[10:00] Him**
*Being this excited about it being finished,*
**[10:03] Him**
*but also equally being afraid of it...*
**[10:06] Him**
* It might even surpass when*
* I was trying to get into high school.*
**[10:16] Mika**
Okay, I'm opening it.
**[10:18] Mika**
And, go!
**[10:22] Hime**
It's done!
**[10:23] Tou**
I hope your dad will like it.
**[10:26] hime**
Me, too!
**[10:27] Mik**
You'll have to tell us how he reacts.
**[10:29] Hime**
I will!
**[10:31] Hime**
How about some ochazuke?
**[10:32] Hime**
We've got some salmon.
**[10:33] tok**
Yeah, that sounds great!
**[10:35] tok**
I'll have some.
**[10:45] tok**
Huh?
**[10:51] tok**
Did you... make this bowl?
**[10:54] Hime**
Y-Yes, but it's pretty awkward...
**[10:57] tok**
I see. You made this for me.
**[11:09] tok**
Thanks for the food.
**[11:17] tok**
This is great!
**[11:19] tok**
The size is just right.
**[11:20] Hime**
Are you sure it's okay?
**[11:22] tok**
And the whale on it is cute.
**[11:24] Hime**
That's a salmon...
**[11:27] tok**
Oh. Right, a salmon.
**[11:30] tok**
Thank you.
**[11:32] tok**
Nothing could make me happier
than a present like this.
**[11:35] Hime**
I'm glad!
**[11:36] Hime**
Please clean up when you're done.
**[11:38] Hime**

**[00:59] wom**
Thanks for having us!
**[01:02] blue**
What were you like back in high school?
**[01:04] ser**
I was kind of a bad student...
**[01:06] Blue**
Really?
**[01:08] Blue**
What do you mean "bad"?
**[01:09] pink**
During the summer, I'd wear sunglasses.
**[01:12] wom**
No way, seriously?!
**[01:14] wom**
In high school?!
**[01:15] pink**
Yes. And I'd wear really long pants.
**[01:17] wom**
Under your skirt?
**[01:17] pink**
Get out my parasol, and then ride my bike.
**[01:21] wom**
Wow!
**[01:21] pink**
I was a cringy girl.
**[01:24] ser**
What about you guys? What were you like?
**[01:26] blue**
I feel like you probably followed the rules.
**[01:28] pink**
My school's rules were quite relaxed, though.
**[01:31] wom**
Oh, really? Cool!
**[01:33] pink**
Like you could dye your
hair and wear earrings.
**[01:35] wom**
What?!
**[01:36] wom**
That really is lax!
**[01:37] wom**
I'm jealous.
**[01:38] pink**
Yeah, I dyed my hair.
**[01:40] wom**
You did?!
**[01:41] tan**
Everybody around me did too, so...
**[01:43] hon**
Oh, so you'd stand out if you didn't!
**[01:44] wom**
I see.
**[01:45] wom**
I didn't expect that.
**[01:46] tan**
That's how it was for me.
**[01:47] tan**
So then after I had become
a voice actress and met
**[01:51] tan**
the other girls from
"Wake Up, Girls!"
**[01:55] pink**
told me I looked like a gyaru,
and I was taken aback.
**[01:58] wak**
That happened to me, too!
**[01:59] tan**
Really?!
**[02:01] wak**
Yeah, I was called a gyaru, too.
**[02:03] wom**
Isn't that it over there?

I thought I'd join this club.

So was there something
that drew you to this?

That attracted you to this idea?
**[03:12] Green**
I was thinking that once
I got good, I could make things
**[03:15] Green**
exactly the way that I wanted to.
**[03:17] all**
Right, I get that!
**[03:19] tan**
You're using the hand-building
method. What are you making?
**[03:22] Girl**
Well, it's a bit crooked
right now, but it's lips.
**[03:27] Green**
Lips?!
**[03:29] wom**
Really?!
**[03:29] yello**
It's like, they've evolved
way past mugs and plates!
**[03:33] ser**
That's amazing!
**[03:35] purp**
...so whose lips are those?
**[03:37] green**
They're pretty thin, so they're
a Japanese person's lips.
**[03:40] All**
A Japanese person's!
**[03:41] girl**
I have more lips over there.
**[03:43] wom**
You have more than just those lips!
**[03:45] girl**
This will be the third set.
**[03:48] wak**
You're a lip specialist.
**[03:49] wom**
Amazing!
**[03:50] hon**
So you like lips? Like their shape?
**[03:52] green**
I do.
**[03:55] tan**
The level of creativity is just crazy.
**[03:57] all**
Yeah.
**[03:58] wom**
It's amazing.
**[03:59] yellow**
So you really can make anything
you like with pottery.
**[04:01] wom**
There's so much freedom.
**[04:02] wak**
This desire to see all
of the different things
**[04:05] wak**
you've all made is welling up in me.
**[04:06] wom**
Me, too!
**[04:07] wak**
Is there anything we could look at?
**[04:08] girl**
Yes, over there.
**[04:09] wak**
Really? Oh wow, thank you!
**[04:11] girl**
There's some stuff in progress there, too.
**[04:12] wak**
Thank you so much.
**[04:14] all**
Wait, wait, what is this?
**[04:15] all**
No really, this is awesome.
**[04:16] all**
This is amazing!
**[04:18] all**
Can you believe this?

Who made this?
**[04:30] girl**
That's mine.
**[04:30] all**
Amazing!
**[04:32] all**
So you don't just do lips, huh?
**[04:33] all**
I really... I really like
the shape of the base, too.
**[04:39] all**
Incredible.
**[04:40] all**
This is art.
**[04:41] all**
Yeah, you must have an artistic brain.
**[04:44] Blue**
So how long did this take?
**[04:47] Green**
Three, four months.
**[04:49] All**
You can make this in just
three, four months?
**[04:51] wak**
Did you paint it as well?
**[04:53] all**
That's really unbelievable.
**[04:55] all**
And this next to it?
***SIGN*** Take a peek inside

Can I ask what the theme is?
**[05:15] Girls**
We tried to make something
like a children's toy box.
**[05:17] All**
This is really neat!
**[05:19] All**
This is so dreamy.
**[05:20] All**
Wow!
**[05:22] Girl**
We submitted this piece to last year's
nationwide cultural festival.
**[05:28] All**
Wow!
**[05:30] All**
That's amazing.
**[05:31] All**
All the way to the national
level, that's so impressive.
**[05:33] pink**
So you went to the nationals
as first year students?
**[05:36] wom**
That's true skill.
**[05:37] wom**
So you went there when you
were complete newcomers?
**[05:39] wom**
Wasn't that basically right
after you started then?
**[05:41] wom**
Wait, that's crazy!
**[05:43] wom**
That's really impressive.
**[05:44] wom**
It is.
**[05:45] pink**
It's really impressive, isn't it?
**[05:47] yellow**
I'm begging you to stay
in the pottery field.
**[05:50] All**
No, this is really amazing!
**[05:51] nak**
Tajimi has such a bright future.
**[05:53] all**

Oh wow that's amazing!
**[06:07] wom**
This is possible, too?!
**[06:08] wom**
So how do you even make this?
**[06:11] Green**
You put some glass in and
you fire it like that.
**[06:13] wom**
Oh it's glass!
**[06:15] wom**
Cool!
**[06:16] yellow**
There really are no limits to pottery, huh?

Wow, this is so amazing!
**[06:52] All**
There's so much here.
**[06:55] pink**
Huh? The 8th century?!
**[06:58] hon**
Isn't that crazy?
**[06:59] tan**
The 8th century?
**[07:01] wom**
Wow, you're right.
***SIGN*** Flatware from the 8th century
**[07:06] Yel**
It's amazing is that it actually survived.
**[07:09] ser**
It was really sturdy, huh?
**[07:13] wom**
It's so shocking, huh?
**[07:16] wom**
Like, this period really existed, you know?
**[07:19] wom**
Mino ware has the biggest share of
everyday ceramics in use in Japan.
**[07:24] wak**
Mino's so strong.
**[07:27] wak**
Good job, Tajimi.
**[07:29] hon**
It makes me happy.
**[07:29] wak**
Go Tajimi.
**[07:31] wak**
This makes me happy.
**[07:32] Pink**
But back then, they had less
colors and simpler styles.
**[07:35] wom**
Yeah, they were far more plain.
**[07:37] wom**
That's true.
**[07:40] wom**
Look at all this!
**[07:40] wom**
Really.
**[07:41] wom**
It's so awesome!
**[07:43] yellow**
The bowls are fundamentally
the same as we use today.
**[07:46] wom**
Yeah, the shape hasn't changed much.
**[07:47] wom**
The plates, too.
**[07:48] wom**
Yeah, we still have the same things.
**[07:51] wak**
What you notice changing through
the years is the color.
**[07:53] hon**
Yeah, the coloring.
**[07:55] wom**
That's true.
**[07:55] wak**
Bit by bit, more colors get added.
**[07:57] green**
It says "Living National Treasure."
**[07:59] wom**
Living National Treasure, what does that mean?
**[08:02] wom**
That must be some really—
**[08:03] pink**
I means they're a person, but
also a national treasure.
**[08:03] wom**
amazing person?
**[08:06] wom**
A human national treasure.
**[08:07] pink**
The greatest a human can be.
**[08:09] Pink**
Mino ware is amazing.
**[08:10] wom**
It really is.
**[08:11] wom**
What's going on here?
**[08:12] wom**
Yeah I wonder.
**[08:13] wom**
This looks like handwriting to me,
**[08:15] wom**
you know, this pattern.
**[08:16] wom**
I think they put this pattern on by hand.
***SIGN*** Katou Hajime "Yuuri-kinsai" food container

Oh yeah.
**[08:21] wom**
This zigzag?
**[08:22] wom**
It's so pretty.
**[08:24] hon**
This is all so amazing.
**[08:27] wom**
Seeing how the historical trends changed...
**[08:30] wom**
just by spinning around in here,
**[08:33] wom**
that was really impressive.
**[08:35] all**
Yeah.
**[08:35] wom**
It was like we traveled through time.
**[08:39] Nar**
* From high school students to*

**[08:41] Nar**

**[00:16] Nao**
Target acquired.
**[00:17] Nao**
Initiating pursuit!
**[00:18] Mik**
Initiating!
**[00:19] Him**
Uh, initiating!
**[00:25] Him**
* It's a rare sunny Saturday*
* during the rainy season.*
**[00:27] Him**
* Practice exams are over, so I thought*
* we were getting together to have fun,*
**[00:32] Him**
* but for some reason,*
* we're being detectives now.*
***SIGN*** The Teacher's Secret
**[02:14] Him**
*The person we're tailing is Koizumi-sensei.*
**[02:17] Him**
*This all started when...*
**[02:19] (Flashback) Him**
Kukuri-chan!
**[02:21] (Flashback) Mik**
Sorry! Were you waiting long?
**[02:24] (Flashback) Him**
Not at all.
**[02:26] (Flashback) Koi**
Are you serious?
**[02:28] (Flashback) Koi**
Come on, I was really
looking forward to this!
**[02:32] (Flashback) Koi**
Why not?
**[02:33] (Flashback) Nao**
It's our teacher.
**[02:34] (Flashback) Him**
She seems different than normal.
**[02:36] (Flashback) Mik**
She must be talking to her boyfriend.
**[02:38] (Flashback) Nao**
It's possible!
**[02:39] (Flashback) Him**
Nao-chan, didn't you say you overheard
her on the phone a while ago,
**[02:42] (Flashback) Him**
saying something like, "I hope
it'll be a wonderful evening!"
**[02:46] (Flashback) Nao**
Yeah, it was after school.
**[02:48] (Flashback) Nao**
She looked like she was in another world.
**[02:52] (Flashback) Koi**
Yeah, I guess this might be the end.
**[02:55] (Flashback) Koi**
It's fine. I'll just go alone.
**[03:02] Hime**
*And that's where we are now.*
**[03:04] Mik**
That was really unexpected, though.
**[03:06] Mik**
When you said we should follow her.
**[03:09] Hime**
Yeah, huh?
**[03:10] nao**
When we were deciding where to go,
**[03:12] nao**
I almost suggested the club room.
**[03:15] Mik**
That would be silly!
**[03:17] Nao**
But with how Hime-chan has been
these days, it kind of makes sense.
**[03:19] Mik**
I know what you mean!
**[03:20] Mik**
Now that you say it, I totally see it.
**[03:22] Him**
I've been like what, exactly?
**[03:24] Mik**
I mean, you've been so depressed ever since
that thing with the ochazuke bowl happened.
**[03:29] Nao**
That! That's exactly what
I was saying earlier!
**[03:31] Mik**
Really?
**[03:32] Him**
Okay, enough of that!
**[03:34] Mik**
Hey, look! Look!
**[03:38] Mik**
That's where the giant of light sleeps!
**[03:42] Him**
The giant of light?
**[03:43] Nao**
If there's ever an emergency, I'm certain
he'll rise and save the day for sure!
**[03:50] Nao**
Just kidding.
**[03:51] Hime**
You're so crazy.
***SIGN*** Next stop: Hime
**[03:57] Ann**
*The next stop is Hime.*
**[04:00] Ann**
*Passengers alighting at Hime,*
**[04:02] Ann**
* should move to the first door*
* at the front of the train.*
**[04:04] MIk**
The next stop is Hime.
**[04:06] Nao**
Hime...
**[04:07] Him**
What's up with you two?
**[04:09] Him**
Why do you have to use the first door
for getting off at the next stop?
**[04:12] nao**
Because it's an unmanned station.
**[04:14] nao**
There's only a simple automatic ticket gate,
**[04:16] nao**
so you have to give your ticket
to the driver in the train.
**[04:19] nao**
One of the pleasures
of conductorless trains.
**[04:20] hime**
I've never seen anything like this before.
**[04:22] nao**
There's quite a few, like the
Nagarawara Railway and the Ohmi Railway.
**[04:26] him**
Huh.
**[04:32] Nao**
Target is moving!
**[04:33] Him**
We're getting off, Kukuri-chan!
**[04:34] Mik**
Wait, wait! My shoe slipped off!
**[04:37] Him**
This station is so small and cute!
**[04:42] Mik**
Look, look!
**[04:54] Nao**
Kurikuri-chan, you're so loud.
**[04:56] Mik**
Sorry.
**[04:57] Him**
But I got this for 100 yen,
so you're forgiven.
**[05:07] Mik**
Look at this huge crossroad!
***SIGN*** Shinmei Shrine
***SIGN*** Carbonated Drink

Melon
**[05:22] Him**
Knock it off, Kukuri-chan.
**[05:37] Mik**
I'm really enjoying the nature here!
**[05:39] Him**
Yeah, it feels good.
**[05:41] Nao**
We're like, hiking detectives.
**[05:43] Him**
What now?
***SIGN*** Miyama
Forest
***SIGN*** Miyama Forest
**[05:54] Him**
What is this place?
**[05:56] Him**
It says Shinzan Forest.
**[05:57] Nao**
I think it's Miyama Forest...
**[06:00] Mik**
Let's go! It looks cool and refreshing!
**[06:11] Him**
I would've never expected this wide open
space in the middle of the forest.
**[06:15] Him**
It's our teacher!
**[06:16] Mik**
Maybe this is where she was supposed
to meet her boyfriend for a date.
**[06:20] Nao**
That's a...
**[06:21] Hime**
Wow, you're prepared.
**[06:23] Nao**
Target appears to be consuming a rice ball.
**[06:26] Mik**
I want one too!
**[06:28] Him**
We should have bought something
along the way, too.
**[06:38] Him**
I wonder how far she plans on going.
**[06:40] Nao**
No clue, but those are mountains ahead.
**[06:43] Mik**
We made it this far, let's
keep up the spirit. March on!
**[06:47] Nao**
Your spirit looks dead.
**[06:51] Mik**
Naruse-san, wait up.
**[06:53] Mik**
My feet hurt!
**[06:54] Nao**
You got this!
**[06:56] Nao**
We'll lose sight of her!
**[06:57] Him**
Come on, Kukuri-chan! Give me your hand!
**[07:14] Nao**
It looks like this is the only road.
**[07:16] Nao**
Want to take a break?
**[07:17] Him**
That sounds good.
**[07:20] MIk**
That looks like the top!
**[07:22] MIk**
We're almost there!
**[07:24] Him**
Wait, Kukuri-chan!
***SIGN*** Prevent fires
**[07:29] Mik**
The road just keeps on going.
***SIGN*** Stay Safe
Drive Slowly
**[07:33] Mik**
Running was a bad idea.
**[07:39] Nao**
My juice is lukewarm.
**[07:41] Mik**
The next vending machine I see,
I'm definitely buying some.
**[07:45] Nao**
I can't believe we crossed a mountain...
**[07:47] Mik**
And not a vending machine in sight.
**[07:50] Him**
Our teacher has too much energy.
**[07:56] Nao**
Huh? She's gone!
**[08:02] Hime**
A shrine?
**[08:05] Hime**
You think she went up there to pray?
**[08:09] Nao**
I don't have the willpower to go up.
**[08:11] MIk**
Same here.
**[08:15] mik**
You know, I just thought of this, but...
**[08:19] mik**
We still have to walk back, right?
**[08:25] Nao**
Old Sri Lanka.
**[08:27] Him**
What now?
**[08:28] Nao**
We gotta Ceylon.
**[08:30] mik**
Please, no!
**[08:34] Him**
Sorry. This is my fault for running away.
**[08:38] Him**
Nao-chan, when you were about to
suggest going to the club room,
**[08:41] Him**
I panicked and blurted out that
we should follow our teacher.
**[08:47] Him**
You two said that I was totally
devoted to our club...
**[08:53] Him**
But no matter how much I tried,
things weren't working how I wanted.
**[08:59] Him**
Between Touko-senpai who seemingly
easily manages to do difficult things
**[09:03] Him**
and Kukuri-chan, you who
seems to have so much fun,
**[09:06] Him**
I just got more flustered.
**[09:09] Him**
Right when I was starting to
dread the club activities...
**[09:13] (Flashback) Tou**
Next week, I have my school trip,
**[09:15] (Flashback) Tou**
and you first-years will
have your first mock exams.
**[09:18] (Flashback) Tou**
So let's take a break from club activities
until those are over.
**[09:23] (Flashback) Mik**
Oh, man! That's so sad! Right, Hime-chan?
**[09:26] (Flashback) Him**
Y-Yeah, you're right.
***SIGN*** Tokishirou
**[09:29] Him**
That's what I said, but...
**[09:31] (Flashback) Him**
I'm home!
**[09:32] (Flashback) Him**
Dad, starting tomorrow, I can help you here!
**[09:34] (Flashback) Dad**
Really? That's great news.
**[09:36] (Flashback) Old**
How come you're suddenly all smiles?
**[09:39] (Flashback) Him**
Nothing's going on.
**[09:42] (Flashback) Him**
Now I can focus on studying for a while!
**[09:48] Him**
It's not like I really wanted to study.
**[09:51] Him**
But for some reason, I felt
so relieved and happy.
**[09:54] Him**
And I started pottery because I liked it.
**[09:58] Him**
I kind of ran away today, too.
**[10:01] Mik**
So that's what's going on.
**[10:03] Him**
Yeah.
**[10:04] Nao**
Hime-chan...
**[10:07] Both**
You're way too serious!
**[10:10] Mik**
Gosh, you're so cute, Hime-chan!
**[10:14] nao**
Yes, so pure.
**[10:15] Him**
Um, what?
**[10:17] Nao**
That happens all the time.
**[10:19] Nao**
Don't worry about it.
**[10:20] Mik**
There, there!
**[10:22] Him**
You think so?
**[10:23] Koi**
Of course.
**[10:25] Nao**
S-Sensei?
**[10:27] Koi**
Getting into such an intense
conversation here means
**[10:30] Koi**
you're failures as detectives
who are tailing someone.
**[10:34] Koi**
Wait, you heard that phone conversation?
**[10:36] Koi**
That's awkward.
**[10:38] Him**
We're sorry!
**[10:39] Him**
We shouldn't have eavesdropped on your
private call with your boyfriend.
**[10:42] Koi**
Huh?
**[10:43] Mik**
Isn't it nice, though?
**[10:45] Mik**
Now you're not on a sad, lonely trip
by yourself after you broke up.
**[10:48] Koi**
Hold on. What are you cooking up in there?
**[10:52] Nao**
But on the phone, you said
"this might be the end."
**[11:00] Koi**
You're so silly!
**[11:02] Koi**
You'll see what I meant soon enough.
**[11:06] koi**
The person who ditched
me was a girl friend.
**[11:08] koi**
Someone I went to school
with back in junior high.
**[11:10] Mik**
This town is so cute!
**[11:12] Koi**
Kukuri-san, are you even listening?
**[11:14] Mik**
Yes ma'am.
**[11:16] Koi**
"This might be the end" was about
the season's almost being over.
**[11:20] Koi**
That's why I came alone.
**[11:37] Him**
Fireflies!
**[11:38] Nao**
That's right! The fireflies of Kitaogi!
**[11:41] Mik**
I've heard of them, but this is
my first time seeing them!
**[11:57] Him**
Wow!
**[11:58] Him**
This is so amazing!
**[11:59] Him**
I've never seen anything like it!
**[12:02] Koi**
You're so lucky.
**[12:04] Koi**
It's muggy, but there's no wind,
**[12:06] Koi**
meaning the conditions are perfect.
**[12:09] Him**
Wait, there's a different color...
**[12:12] Koi**
The green ones are Genji fireflies.
**[12:14] Koi**
The yellow ones are Heike fireflies.
**[12:16] Koi**
They live in different environments,
**[12:19] Koi**
so it's rare to see the
two species together.
**[12:21] Koi**
But if you're lucky, you can
see them together here.
**[12:24] Him**
We must be super lucky then.
**[12:28] Koi**
That's right.
**[12:29] Koi**
If you're always walking
without seeing what's ahead,
**[12:32] Koi**
it makes sense that you feel
like giving up sometimes.
**[12:35] Koi**
But if you get up and keep walking,
**[12:37] Koi**
you might get to see something
like this at the end.
**[12:47] Koi**
That's why you should just walk
and rest however you like.
**[12:57] Him**
* It feels like the rainy season*
* in my heart is over.*
**[13:02] Him**
* I'm sure I will never*
* forget what I saw today.*

**[03:52] wom**
Yeah, that's it.
**[03:53] wom**
Reminds me of when I was little.
**[03:53] wom**
Yeah it feels like something
I saw when I was little.

Do you have any plans for tomorrow?
**[05:30] Him**
Not particularly...
**[05:32] Koi**
I was wondering if you could
help me organize some materials.
**[05:35] Him**
Materials?
**[05:36] Koi**
The museum for local works behind our school
**[05:38] Koi**
is planning to add a youth pottery section.
**[05:42] Koi**
They were asking if a pottery club student
could help them prepare.
**[05:45] Him**
I'm free tomorrow.
**[05:47] Koi**
Then it's settled.
Tomorrow, ten in the morning.
**[05:50] Koi**
Meet me in front of the pottery room.
**[05:51] Him**
Okay!
**[05:52] Koi**
That was close! I almost forgot.
***SIGN*** Café Tokishirou

**[06:10] Koi**
I'm sorry to ask you on your day off.
**[06:12] Him**
It's not a problem.
**[06:13] Him**
So it's behind the pottery room?
**[06:16] Koi**
There's a shortcut.
**[06:19] HIm**
I didn't know about this back entrance.
**[06:21] Koi**
It's a relic from before the war,
when our school was a pottery school.
**[06:25] Him**
Really?
**[06:26] Him**
I never knew this was
behind the pottery club room.
**[06:29] Koi**
It's part of the school, so it's normal to
not notice it, even if it's in plain sight.
**[06:33] Koi**
The climbing kiln
behind the pottery club room
**[06:37] Koi**
belonged to the potter
who used to live here.
**[06:39] Koi**
It's registered as one of the
city's cultural treasures.
**[06:42] Koi**
That's also why the club
can't be shut down easily.
**[06:45] Him**
So that's the trick.
**[06:47] Koi**
The students who want to
make a career out of pottery
**[06:49] Koi**
end up going to the technical high school.
**[06:52] Koi**
Students like Aoki-san are quite rare.
**[06:57] Koi**
Let's see...
**[06:59] Koi**
I'm going to meet some
people from the town hall,
**[07:01] Koi**
and then I'll head over to the museum.
**[07:02] Koi**
You head that way and go
around the other way.
**[07:06] Koi**
The scenery is really lovely.
**[07:08] Him**

This is so amazing!
**[07:32] Him**
You can see all of Tajimi!
**[07:37] Him**
This is what Sensei must have meant
when she said the scenery is lovely.
**[07:45] Him**
What... was that sound?
**[07:48] Him**
Is it coming from over there?
**[07:52] Him**
Another kappa?
**[08:00] Him**
Over there, too!
**[08:06] Him**

It looks like it could suck you in.

**[09:11] Koi**
Toyokawa-san!
**[09:14] Koi**
Over here!
**[09:18] Him**
So this is the museum for local works.
**[09:22] Iso**
Nice to meet you. I'm from the
Tajimi City Hall. My name is Isomura.
**[09:26] Him**
I'm Toyokawa Himeno!
**[09:28] Iso**
This building has a long history,
**[09:30] Iso**
so the town has been discussing for a
long time how to use the space,
**[09:33] Iso**
but no plans have really solidified.
**[09:35] Iso**
Any time there was a proposal
at a city council meeting,
**[09:37] Iso**
it would just lose momentum,
again and again.
**[09:41] Iso**
But last year, we finally decided
to make this a youth pottery museum.
**[09:46] Iso**
Oh, right.
**[09:48] Iso**
Did you see that monument?
**[09:51] Him**
I did!
**[09:52] Him**
It was really spectacular.
**[09:54] Him**
That color really pulls you in...
**[09:56] Iso**
The person who made it
actually died quite young.
**[10:00] Iso**
This year marks the tenth year
since that happened.
**[10:03] Iso**
Her name was Tokigawa Himena-san.
**[10:06] Him**
Wait, my mom made that?
**[10:10] Iso**
Huh?
**[10:11] Koi**
I'm sorry, Senpai. This is actually
Tokigawa Himena-san's daughter.
**[10:15] Iso**
Wow, really? That's incredible!
**[10:18] Iso**
And you're actually making pottery as well!
**[10:21] Him**
I... I just started!
I can't do anything yet!
**[10:25] Iso**
I'm so excited now!
**[10:27] Iso**
Your mother's monument back
there was instrumental
**[10:29] Iso**
to the decision to preserve
and reuse this building.
**[10:32] Him**
It was?
***SIGN*** Pottery Club Journal
**[10:38] Koi**
Even stuff like this was archived, huh?
**[10:40] Iso**
We were just looking for pottery by this town's
young people that left a mark on history.
**[10:49] Him**
It's all recorded...
**[10:53] Him**
Wow, this is the same form as the monument.
**[10:57] Koi**
You found it?
**[10:58] Koi**
Take a look at the next page, too.
**[11:04] Him**
Are these production notes?
***SIGN*** Why I want to make this
***SIGN*** Because I discovered that place!
Because I skipped class to go explore!
When I went to explore, I was like, "what is this place?!"
It seemed to me like the Garden of Sky and Wind,
and it made me want to make something there that will soothe everyone!
**[11:07] Him**
"Why I want to make this"?
**[11:12] Koi**
That's your mother's handwriting.
**[11:15] Him**
"Why I want to make this."
**[11:17] Him**
"Because I discovered that place!"
**[11:20] Him**
"Because I skipped class to go explore!"
**[11:25] Koi**
She really was a free spirit.
**[11:27] Him**
"When I went to explore,
I was like, 'what is this place?!'"
**[11:30] Him**
"It seemed to me like
the Garden of Sky and Wind,"
**[11:32] Him**
"and it made me want to make something
there that will soothe everyone!"
**[11:36] Iso**
Even then, that's not something a
high schooler would normally make.
**[11:40] Iso**
Not to mention, on land that
indisputably belongs the city.
**[11:45] Him**
Mom...
**[11:47] Iso**
Her vitality was incredible.
**[11:49] Iso**
In the end, she even convinced
the city council as well.
**[11:54] Iso**
She gives a more serious
answer in this article.
***SIGN*** A high schooler's
magnum opus!
**[11:57] Iso**
When asked about her motivation
for the piece, she said:
**[12:01] Iso**
"I got the urge to show everyone the
color and the voice of the wind."
**[12:26] Him**
I wonder how she managed
to create that color.
**[12:31] Dad**
Oh, so you saw it?
**[12:34] Him**
Yeah! It was so light and beautiful,
**[12:37] Him**
and depending on the light,
it would shift in so many ways!
**[12:41] Him**
It made me want to look at it forever!
**[12:44] Dad**
Yeah.... I felt the same.
**[12:49] Him**
Mom, I felt the wind's color and voice.
**[12:54] Him**
You're really amazing, Mom.
**[12:58] Him**
I decided that I'm going
to stop worrying so much
**[13:03] Him**
and just look for the thing
I want to make with pottery.
**[13:07] Him**
Thank you, Mom!

I highly recommend the baumkuchen!
**[00:14] Hen**
It's really soft! Everybody raves about it!
**[00:18] Ele**
It's one tasty trunk!
**[00:20] MIk**
Everyone, time to go into the kiln!
**[00:22] All**
Yay!
**[00:25] Mik**
Come back safe, okay?
**[00:27] Mik**
Of course! I can't wait to go into the kiln!
**[00:30] Him**
What are you mumbling about over here?
**[00:32] Mik**
Nothing! I'm just trying to inject some soul
into my pieces by giving them a back story!
**[00:36] Him**
Is that so?
**[00:38] Nao**
Playing house.
**[00:39] Mik**
Excuse you, Naruse-san!
**[00:41] Mik**
I heard loud and clear that
you said "playing house"!
**[00:43] Mik**
What's with the attitude?!
**[00:45] Mik**
That's blatantly mean!
**[00:48] Tou**
Please be quiet.
**[00:50] Tou**
You're causing my fingertips to waver.
**[00:53] Mik**
Okay.
**[00:56] Him**
*She's not kidding around...*
***SIGN*** Himeno's Piece
**[02:50] him**
* Touko-senpai and Kukuri-chan are both making*
* steady progress on their contest entries.*
**[03:02] him**
*I need to decide what I'm going to make.*
**[03:11] him**
That spire that my mother made...
**[03:19] him**
* That didn't mean I actually wanted*
* to make something like this...*
**[03:26] Mik**
Oh wow, you're really making progress!
**[03:28] Mik**
Is this a cute little conger eel?
**[03:29] Him**
Huh?
**[03:31] Him**
Oh, thanks...
**[03:32] Mik**
No problem.
**[03:35] Him**
You're always coming up with so
many ideas from cute to bizarre.
**[03:39] Mik**
Bizarre?
**[03:40] Him**
So what's your secret?
**[03:43] Mik**
There's no secret, really.
**[03:45] Mik**
I only draw stuff I like,
and the same goes for molding clay.
**[03:48] Mik**
I only make my favorite things!
**[03:52] Mik**
You should try drawing the things you love
**[03:54] Mik**
or the things that make you excited!
**[03:56] Mik**
It might inspire you.
**[03:58] Him**
Things I love, huh?
**[04:02] Him**
Maybe something like this?
**[04:04] Him**
This is good.
**[04:06] Mik**
Show me, show me!
**[04:10] Mik**
Um...
**[04:13] Mik**
I get it! You like to clean!
**[04:15] Mik**
That's a cleaning brush!
**[04:17] Him**
It's a cream puff...
**[04:21] Him**
You guys....
**[04:24] Nao**
A sea urchin!
**[04:25] Him**
The sun!
**[04:26] Mik**
A UFO and a rocket!
**[04:28] Him**
A red bell pepper with a shishito pepper!
**[04:30] Nao**
A cat's paw!
**[04:31] Him**
A rug beater!
**[04:34] Mik**
Uhm... uh... a hippo?
**[04:36] Him**
It's a sewing machine!
**[04:39] Him**
Why are you laughing?!
**[04:41] Mik**
Because! This is the hardest test ever.
**[04:44] Tou**
Hey! It's very rude to
laugh at someone's work!
**[04:52] Tou**
I can see how family oriented you are.
**[04:55] Him**
Huh?
**[04:56] Him**
Yeah, I guess so.
**[04:59] Tou**
That's the feeling I get
when I look at these.
**[05:02] Tou**
The context theme is "Ideas for including
Mino Ware in Your Daily Life."
**[05:06] Tou**
Something that would be
wonderful if it existed.
**[05:10] Tou**
I'm sure that you will be
able to find that something.
**[05:13] Him**
I-I'll do my best!
**[05:16] Tou**
Oh, but this is such a great kappa drawing!
**[05:22] Him**
That's my dad...
**[05:25] Him**
It's my dad.
**[05:27] Tou**
Well, your color work
is very vivid and nice.
**[05:30] Him**
Thank you very much.
**[05:40] Him**
Something wonderful for every day, huh...
**[05:45] (Flashback) Dad**
It would be nice to have some more
variety in our smaller plates.
**[05:51] (Flashback) Old**
That's true.
**[05:56] Him**
Hey, Kukuri-chan! I was wondering
if you could show me something...
**[06:03] Mik**
That's right. When you're
making a small plate,
**[06:05] Mik**
the beginning is just like
making a cup or bowl.
**[06:08] Him**
So I just spread and flatten it, right?
**[06:11] Mik**
Then you use this rib to smooth it out.
**[06:15] Him**
I'm so nervous...
**[06:19] Mik**
Wow! I can't believe it, Hime-chan!
**[06:21] Mik**
Good, you're doing good!
That looks super good!
**[06:24] Him**
Really?
**[06:25] Nao**
Splendid. Spot on.
**[06:29] Him**
And then I just use this piece of
leather to finalize the edge, right?
**[06:33] ---**
Here I go...
**[06:37] Nao**
Hime-chan!
**[06:38] Him**
I-I'll try it again! If I try
it again, surely it'll...
**[06:43] Him**
They're all flat.
**[06:46] Him**
Not even one lucky one...
**[06:48] Nao**
I'll buy you an ice cream on the way home.
**[06:55] nao**
This year's limited edition is tasty again.
**[07:03] Him**
I'm home...
**[07:18] Him**
I'm home!
**[07:20] Dad**
Welcome back.
**[07:21] Him**
I made it pretty strong.
I'll just leave it here.
**[07:23] Dad**
Thank you.
**[07:40] Him**
So...
**[07:41] Dad**
I guess I'll put these in the back...
**[07:53] ---**
Ah! That's hot!
**[07:55] Dad**
Oh, what is it? What's wrong?
**[07:58] Him**
The cushion...
**[07:59] Dad**
I bet it's burning hot, huh?
It's been drying it in the sun all day.
**[08:10] Dad**
The prompt for the contest, huh...
**[08:13] Him**
Everyone's so amazing.
**[08:15] Him**
Kukuri-chan and Touko-senpai
are both getting so much done.
**[08:27] Him**
If only I could make something like Mom did...
**[08:31] Him**
It's not going so well
at the pottery wheel...
**[08:34] Him**
But I can't even think of what
I could do with hand building.
**[08:41] Him**
What the?!
**[08:42] Dad**
Look at it!
**[08:43] Dad**
So what do you think about this?
**[08:45] Him**
What is that supposed to be?
**[08:46] Dad**
I left this here back when we moved to Tokyo.
**[08:49] Dad**
This really takes me back.
**[08:51] Dad**
Your mom made this for me, back when
I was on the high school baseball team.
**[08:56] Dad**
It's a ceramic bat!
**[08:58] Him**
A ceramic... bat?
**[09:00] Dad**
That's just how she was, if she
thought of it, she made it.
**[09:06] Dad**
Even in second year I was still
only a substitute player,
**[09:09] Dad**
and I thought of quitting, but
couldn't quite make up my mind.
**[09:16] Dad**
And that's when your mom came around,
right when I was in the dumps.
**[09:21] Dad**
She told me that she liked seeing me
swing the bat around day in and day out
**[09:24] Dad**
with such devotion and passion
even if I wasn't good.
**[09:30] Him**
What's this, what's this?
**[09:32] Him**
You were so lovey-dovey!
**[09:34] Dad**
Right?
**[09:37] Dad**
But this is a ceramic bat.
**[09:40] Him**
That's heavy!
**[09:41] Dad**
You're guaranteed to hurt
your hips if you swing this.
**[09:44] Him**
So it's no good.
**[09:45] Dad**
Not to mention, even if you could swing it,
**[09:47] Dad**
it would break on contact with the ball.
**[09:51] Dad**
But then she got this sparkle in her eye...
**[09:54] Dad**
As if she was saying, "With this
you can become a regular player, right?"
**[09:59] Dad**
The whole thing was pretty ridiculous.
**[10:01] Dad**
But it certainly cheered me up.
**[10:06] Dad**
After that, I went on to
work behind the scenes.
**[10:10] Dad**
I figured, that wasn't a
bad way to shine.
**[10:13] Him**
I see.
**[10:16] Dad**
You should hit it with your
own brand of passion, too.
**[10:19] Dad**
You don't know what, but
you want to create something!
**[10:22] Dad**
If you keep that idea with you,
**[10:24] Dad**
I'm sure something good will come of it.
**[10:26] Him**
I'm struggling because I haven't
been able to make that work!
**[10:32] Him**
But... you're right.
**[10:36] Him**
Thank you for listening to me, Dad.
**[10:44] Him**
They hardened in their deflated state.
**[10:47] Mik**
Don't worry about that! Just try again.
**[10:51] Him**
I guess.
**[10:54] Him**
Touko-senpai!
**[10:55] Tou**
Delivery. Let's take a step back.
**[11:17] Him**
Hey, hey, Kukuri-chan! Check this out!
**[11:19] MIk**
Huh?
**[11:21] Him**
I made them into coasters!
**[11:23] Mik**
Oh that's cute! Ceramic coasters!
**[11:27] ---**
Hey, what!
**[11:29] Him**
Lulu.
**[11:30] Mik**
You even put my tanuki on there!
**[11:33] Him**
I got carried away.
**[11:34] Him**
But Kukuri-chan, this feels
so nice and coolulu.
**[11:38] Mik**
Why are you talking like that?
**[11:40] Him**
This feels so nice and coolulu.
**[11:48] Him**
I got it.
**[11:50] Him**
I got it!
***SIGN*** Feels so nice and cool
**[11:53] Him**
This is what I'm going to make!
**[11:56] Mik**
What is "this"?
**[11:59] Tou**
Toyokawa-san, what exactly... is that?
***SIGN*** Feels so nice and cool
**[12:03] Him**
Thank you for asking!
**[12:06] Him**
This is a ceramic cushion
for people to sit on!
**[12:09] Mik**
A ceramic cushion? That sounds hard, though.
**[12:12] Him**
Still, I bet sitting on one must feel good!
**[12:15] Tou**
Actually, in the Tang and
Song dynasties in China,
**[12:18] Tou**
they did make ceramic pillows,
so I think that might work.
**[12:23] Him**
Right? If it goes well, I think
it might be really good!
**[12:27] Him**
Even if it's a bit absurd.
**[12:29] Mik**
Absurd is good! I want to see your absurd!
**[12:32] Him**
I think I'm getting excited now!
**[12:35] Mik**
I've been waiting for that.
**[12:38] Him**
Kukuri-chan, that tickles!
**[12:40] Tou**
I'm glad you finally found
what you want to make.
**[12:43] Tou**
If you want make it so people
can actually sit on it,
**[12:45] Tou**
you'll have to put a lot
of thought into it though.
**[12:48] Him**
Aye, aye! please teach me everything!
**[12:50] Tou**
All right!
**[12:56] Nao**
They're having fun.
**[13:06] Nao**
She put caterpillar treads on her dad?!
**[14:25] Mad**
It's really summer now!

Tokigawa is prospering thanks to eel,
but then that person came along!
**[14:31] Mad**

Next time, we've got
"Kukuri of the Strange River".

We've changed outfits!
**[00:50] wom**
So cute.
**[00:51] wom**
These are so cute!
**[00:52] hon**
Should we be saying that ourselves?
**[00:54] tan**
Our own styles.
**[00:55] wom**
All these colors.
**[00:56] wom**
Yeah! We're so colorful!
**[00:58] wom**
I like that we have different colors.
**[00:59] wom**
Yeah huh?
**[01:00] wak**
We've done some pottery already
so now we're psyched up.
**[01:04] wom**
This time it's more serious than before.
**[01:06] wom**
True.
**[01:07] wom**
That's why we're psyched.
**[01:09] ser**
Work clothes also get you in that mode, huh?
**[01:11] wom**
Yeah, true.
**[01:13] wak**
We did come here to try pottery again.
**[01:17] tan**
Let's go in, then.
**[01:17] wom**
Let's go!
**[01:17] hon**
I'm going to try hard.
**[01:22] nar**
* We're at the Voice Workshop again where*
* we made cups on the pottery wheel.*
***SIGN*** Azuchi Momoyama Tojinosato Voice Workshop
***SIGN*** Hand-building
***SIGN*** You make things by shaping the clay on the table. There are
no restrictions on the shape, so you can make whatever you like.
**[01:26] nar**
* Today we're going to use a technique*
* called hand-building to make plates!*
**[01:31] tea**
I'll start off by showing you how it's done.
**[01:35] wom**
Wow!
**[01:37] wom**
That's... cute!
**[01:38] wom**
It takes me back to when I was little.
**[01:39] wom**
Yeah.
***SIGN*** Voice Workshop
***SIGN*** Yamaura Toshimi-san
***SIGN*** Pound the clay to spread it out
**[01:41] nar**
*After you give the clay a generous pounding,*
***SIGN*** Use a rolling pin to stretch it further
**[01:45] nar**
* you use a rolling pin to further*
* stretch it out to an even height.*
**[01:48] nar**
*Then you cut out any shape you like.*
***SIGN*** Cut out the shape you like
**[01:49] tea**
So you just cut away the
part you don't need.
**[01:52] all**
Ah-ha.
***SIGN*** Stretch out some clay into a coil shape
Score the clay acting as the base
**[01:54] nar**
* After you stretch out some*
* clay into a coil shape,*
**[01:57] nar**
*you score the clay that will be the base.*
**[01:57] tea**
I'm just making these marks.
**[02:00] wak**
That's like apple pie.
**[02:00] ser**
Like pie dough.
**[02:01] wak**
Yeah!
**[02:02] wom**
Just like pie dough!
**[02:04] ser**
It's looking like a pie.
**[02:05] wom**
Right.
**[02:05] tea**
By scoring the clay, the pieces
will stick together securely.
**[02:11] ser**
This reminds me of making tarts.
**[02:13] waK**
Yeah, Minami, you are
probably good at that.
**[02:14] tan**
Really?
**[02:15] wak**
You look like you're good at making sweets.
**[02:17] tea**
When you're connecting the pieces,
you use this mud, or slip.
***SIGN*** Apply slip on the scored areas as an adhesive
**[02:21] tea**
I'm applying it on the rim.
**[02:21] wom**
Slip...
**[02:26] wak**
That's like making potstickers.
**[02:29] wom**
Food again!
**[02:30] wak**
Why do we always think of food?!
**[02:32] wom**
Seriously!
**[02:32] wom**
Are we that hungry? Or what?
**[02:35] wom**
Wow!
***SIGN*** Add height by stacking up coils of clay
**[02:36] nar**
* Repeat the process of adding*
* clay to the foundation*
**[02:40] nar**
*until you reach your desired height.*
**[02:45] wak**
Am I the only one who
thinks that looks tasty?
**[02:48] wom**
Like a tart?
**[02:49] wak**
It looks so good.
**[02:52] hon**
It makes you want to put fruit on.
***SIGN*** Begin plate making
**[02:55] nar**
*We will be making plates for eating curry.*
**[02:59] nar**
* We actually made plans to*
* all make curry together!*
**[03:02] wom**
It's a good stress relief.
***SIGN*** Pound the clay to spread it out
**[03:05] wom**
This hurts!
**[03:07] wom**
This is hard!
**[03:09] wom**
This much?
**[03:11] Wom**
Ouch!
**[03:12] hon**
It's fun!
**[03:14] tan**
Yeah, it's fun.
**[03:16] wak**
Yes, but it hurts.
**[03:18] wom**
You kinda get attached to this clay huh?
**[03:20] ser**
I'm not good at physical labor.
***SIGN*** Use a rolling pin to stretch it further
**[03:24] nar**
* Next, we use a rolling pin*
* to really stretch it out.*
**[03:29] wom**
In the beginning you need quite a lot of—
**[03:30] wom**
Oh, it's stretching!
**[03:31] wom**
—power.
**[03:34] ser**
Yuki, you're short even when you stand up.
**[03:36] waK**
This is standing, this is sitting.
**[03:37] wom**
There!
**[03:38] wom**
I think this is pretty good if I flip it.
**[03:40] wom**
But it's 7 mm, right?
**[03:41] tea**
First you go side to side.
**[03:42] wom**
Then up and down, right?
**[03:45] wom**
This is so fun!
**[03:46] hon**
It feels really nice when it stretches out.
**[03:47] wak**
This is getting the tension
out of my arms, so nice.
**[03:50] tan**
This like an arm massage, and it feels good.
**[03:56] wom**
This feels good!
**[03:59] nar**
* Next, we have to decide the*
* shape of the plates.*
***SIGN*** Cut out the shape you want for your plate
**[04:03] nar**
*This was the toughest part!*
**[04:06] wom**
This is crucial.
**[04:07] wom**
Wait, really?
**[04:08] tan**
Yeah, it really is.
**[04:09] wak**
What should I do... maybe a heart?
**[04:11] all**
Cute!
**[04:14] ser**
Too cute!
**[04:16] ser**
Really, a heart?
**[04:18] ser**
Then maybe I'll go for a star!
**[04:19] all**
A star?! A star!
**[04:20] hon**
That would be so much work!
**[04:22] hon**
What should I do?
**[04:23] hon**
Maybe I'll just do an ellipse, like this.
**[04:29] tan**
That's a really nice ellipse already!
**[04:32] wak**
Like, that's good enough.
**[04:33] wom**
Yeah, just fire it like that.
**[04:37] wom**
I see.
**[04:38] ser**
A cute cat.
**[04:40] wak**
That's super cute.
**[04:41] wak**
Like a kid's plate.
**[04:43] ser**
Mom, I want curry!
**[04:44] ser**
That has to go on a kid plate.
**[04:47] wak**
And you need a flag in the rice.
**[04:48] wak**
We've all got our own thing going, huh?
**[04:50] tan**
I'm doing a diamond shape.
**[04:52] wak**
Diamond.
**[04:52] hon**
Diamond shape, that's fancy!
**[04:54] wom**
That's really pretty!
**[04:55] wom**
There aren't that many
plates with that shape.
***SIGN*** Stack up coils of clay
**[04:59] nar**
*The next step is to stack up coils of clay!*
**[05:03] tea**
Do it in a rolling motion.
**[05:04] ser**
Rolling motion.
**[05:06] ser**
This is fun!
**[05:07] tan**
This is like making candy.
**[05:09] wom**
Oh, yeah!
**[05:10] wom**
Like Kintaro candy.
**[05:11] wom**
Kintaro candy!
**[05:12] wom**
Kintaro candy.
**[05:13] ser**
This feels so good!
**[05:15] ser**
It's really nice!
**[05:17] ser**
You should hurry up so you
can get to touching this.
**[05:18] wom**
You're one step ahead of us.
**[05:20] ser**
This feels so good!
**[05:22] hon**
It's a bit of a battle against time.
**[05:23] wom**
Oh right.
**[05:24] tan**
Yeah since I'm taking my time,
it's starting to dry out!
**[05:27] hon**
It's starting to get dry.
**[05:28] tan**
Crap.
**[05:29] hon**
Oh, crap!
**[05:35] wom**
We're all so serious.
**[05:38] wak**
I'll put this inside.
**[05:40] wom**
You're right it doesn't go
so well when it's hard.
**[05:48] wom**
Oh, no. We shouldn't have been chatting so much!
**[05:51] tan**
The panic is setting in!
**[05:53] wak**
What are you doing? The camera?
**[05:55] ser**
The camera was there, so I had to.
**[05:57] ser**
Can't forget to be appealing for the camera.
**[05:59] wak**
That's very important.
**[06:01] tan**
This is fun.
**[06:03] hon**
I don't know how to put it, but
because you're touching it a lot,
**[06:07] tan**
Yeah.
**[06:07] hon**
it just feels so...
**[06:08] wak**
It literally feels handmade.
**[06:10] hon**
Right, so different from the pottery wheel.
**[06:12] ser**
That's true.
**[06:13] ser**
I feel like I did a lot with clay
during free experimentation time.
**[06:16] hon**
Oh, yeah. Free experimentation.
**[06:16] wom**
Right, those free hours!
**[06:18] hon**
That brings back memories,
free experimentation.
**[06:18] ser**
What was that stuff that hardened?
**[06:21] ser**
Oh, papier mâché!
**[06:21] wom**
We used that!
**[06:23] tan**
Papier mâché!
**[06:25] wak**
Papier mâché!
**[06:25] wak**
Papier mâché!
**[06:26] tan**
We painted those, too.
**[06:28] hon**
Yeah, we colored them and dried them.
**[06:29] tan**
You could do a lot with that.
**[06:30] hon**
Exactly.
**[06:32] wak**
Free experimentation, huh?
**[06:33] wak**
Is that the same as treasure making?
**[06:35] wom**
Treasure making?
**[06:37] ser**
What is treasure making?!
**[06:38] wak**
For people in Gifu, it's treasure making.
**[06:40] wom**
Whoa, what?
**[06:40] wom**
Wait, what is that?
**[06:42] wak**
You're talking about making treasures
during summer break, right?
**[06:43] ser**
What?! We didn't do that!
**[06:47] hon**
Wait, I never heard of that.
**[06:49] ser**
Did you make treasures every year?
**[06:50] wak**
Yeah.
**[06:52] tan**
Hello, that's so wonderful?
**[06:54] tan**
It was.
**[06:54] tan**
Treasure making during summer break.
**[06:58] ser**
If I had a daughter,
I'd want her to go there.
**[07:01] ser**
That's way too precious.
**[07:02] wom**
Yeah, it is!
**[07:04] nar**
* In the end, we use small pieces*
* of clay or stamps to decorate!*
***SIGN*** Finish it off with decorations
**[07:08] ser**
My idea is to add the
whiskers inside the plate.
**[07:12] wom**
There.
**[07:12] wom**
You're already there? You're so fast.
**[07:16] wom**
Wow, cute! Really cute!
**[07:17] wom**
Cute!
**[07:19] hon**
I hope this turns out.
**[07:21] hon**
This is hard.
**[07:23] ser**
That's really cute.
**[07:25] wom**
Looking good.
**[07:26] wom**
Really lovely.
**[07:26] ser**
You can really feel the love of the maker.
**[07:30] wom**
Yeah you can feel that.
**[07:31] wak**
It'll make you feel good about
having finished your plate.
**[07:35] wom**
Oh, that's a good point.
**[07:35] hon**
This is amazing.
**[07:36] all**
Our personalities are really showing here.
**[07:40] ser**
What are your thoughts?
**[07:43] wak**
Since I only had the pottery
wheel image in my head,
**[07:47] wak**
when I heard pottery, you know?
This kind of plate—
**[07:50] wak**
or that plates are made
this way— was interesting.
**[07:53] tan**
It was just like how it was
to play with clay as a kid.
**[07:58] wom**
Brought back memories huh?
**[07:58] tan**
Yeah exactly.
**[08:00] wom**
Totally.
**[08:02] hon**
There must be still a ton of techniques
we haven't even seen yet.
**[08:06] hon**
Yeah, there is still so
much we don't know yet!
**[08:07] wom**
That makes sense.
**[08:09] hon**
I think the more I learn,
the more I'd want to learn,
**[08:13] hon**
the more I'd want to try.
**[08:14] tan**
I want to grow... through pottery.
**[08:16] wak**
Yes! I want to grow too!
**[08:17] wak**
I want to get better at this too!
**[08:20] wak**
I'll need to try hard to be the
best pottery voice actress.
**[08:24] hon**
Oh, nice!
**[08:24] tan**
That sounds cool!
**[08:26] ser**
I've never heard of that combo.
**[08:27] hon**
You'd be the person in the
industry for collabs.
**[08:30] wak**
Let's go for that, pottery voice actresses.
**[08:32] wak**
That's what I want to be.
**[08:34] nar**
* Our first attempt at hand-building*
* right in Tajimi!*
**[08:38] nar**
*But it's not over yet!*
***SIGN*** Serizawa Yū's work

**[08:47] nar**
* Next time we change into yukatas*

**[08:49] ser**
Cute!
**[08:52] nar**
*We're going to fully enjoy Tajimi's summer!*
**[08:54] hon**
It's getting bigger.
**[08:56] tan**
It's sparkling!
**[08:57] wak**
Oh yeah, it's sparkling.
**[08:58] wak**
Wow!

**[00:09] Mik**
Good morning!
**[00:11] Dad**
Hello!
**[00:12] Sach**
You're alone?
**[00:14] Mik**
Yeah. Hime-chan ran into me at Manapa,
**[00:16] Mik**
but since it was completely
full, I let her have my spot.
***SIGN*** Manapa is what locals call the Manabi Park.
The Tajimi Public Library is there and
high school students also go there often.
**[00:25] Dad**
I'm sorry about that.
**[00:26] Mik**
It's fine! It's always so nice
and cool and empty in here!
**[00:32] Mik**
I mean, it's so cool and quiet in here!
**[00:35] Mik**
I mean, it's calming!
**[00:37] Mik**
...I'm sorry.
***SIGN*** Kukuri of the Strange River
**[02:11] Per**
Here's some cold water.
**[02:12] Mik**
Thanks!
**[02:17] Mik**
Oh, that's so refreshing!
**[02:20] Mik**
I'll take a cola float please.
**[02:22] Sach**
Are you hungry? I could get you
some yakisoba, on the house.
**[02:26] Dad**
You can also taste-test
the new curry I'm making.
**[02:29] Mik**
Thank you, but I'm fine.
**[02:31] Sach**
You sure?
**[02:33] Sach**
Then one cola float, please!
**[02:35] Dad**
Coming up!
**[02:37] Sach**
Look at you, borrowing such a hard book.
**[02:41] Sach**
Are you using it to try to
get ideas for the contest?
**[02:44] Mik**
Y-Yes!
**[02:46] Mik**
* I can't tell her that I just*
* went there to cool off*
**[02:49] Mik**
* and borrowed a random book that*
* stood out because I got embarrassed.*
**[02:52] Mik**
Is it all right if I read here?
**[02:55] Sach**
Of course! Read away!
**[02:57] Mik**
Thank you!
**[03:04] Mik**
There's so many words in here...
**[03:07] Dad**
Thank you for waiting.
**[03:11] Dad**
Hmm, where can I even put this?
**[03:13] Sach**
Just here.
**[03:16] Dad**
I'll just leave it over here.
**[03:17] Mik**
Okay.
**[03:21] Sach**
You know, the Toki river was
completely white when I was a child.
**[03:26] Dad**
Ah, yes.
**[03:27] Dad**
I think it was already pretty
clean when I was a kid.
**[03:27] Mik**
* What? They're going to*
* stay here and reminisce?*
**[03:31] Sach**
Could be. After the eighties,
everybody worked really hard.
**[03:31] Mik**
*But I want to drink my cola float.*
**[03:37] Dad**
Now you can even catch eel
again, like in the old times.
**[03:40] Sach**
Eels, huh? Speaking of eels, Kawase-san
with the eel business has a daughter,
**[03:47] Sach**
her nickname is Kappa.
**[03:49] Sach**
She got me on TV twice.
**[03:54] Dad**
Which shows?
**[03:55] Sach**
*The Bowl Concert* and then, *The Tenpari Quiz*.
**[03:58] Dad**
Oh, those shows were big with kids around
here at the end of the Showa era, right?
**[04:03] Dad**
And you were in both of them?!
**[04:04] Mik**
I can't anymore!
**[04:08] Him**
Please keep your voice down in the store.
**[04:12] Mik**
Huh?
**[04:13] Mik**
When did you get here?
**[04:14] Him**
What do you mean? We came
together, from Manapa.
**[04:18] Mik**
Huh?
**[04:19] Him**
Let's go back to the club room.
Touko-senpai is waiting.
**[04:24] Mik**
Touko-senpai?
**[04:25] Him**
See, our escort's here as well.
**[04:33] Mik**
Naruse-san, what the heck are you doing?
**[04:35] Mik**
That costume in the middle
of a Tajimi summer?!
**[04:38] Nao**
Shake my hand at the Kokeiyosui Square...
**[04:43] Him**
Nao-chan!
**[04:46] Nao**
I took it off and I'm still so hot.
**[04:50] Him**
Putting it on was the first mistake.
**[04:52] Mik**
It's so hot though.
**[04:55] Mik**
I'd really like to do something
that would cool us off.
**[04:59] Him**
Something that cools us off?
**[05:01] Nao**
So like...
**[05:11] Mik**
Wait, wait!
**[05:15] Mik**
Whoa whoa whoa Touko-senpai, why
are you eating shaved ice?!
**[05:20] Mik**
And in a bathing suit? In a place like this?
**[05:22] Tou**
Mika-chan, did you forget what day it is?
**[05:25] Tou**
It's the one day of the year when there
are a ton of eel in the Toki river.
**[05:30] Him**
Wait, there's a day like that?
Tajimi is really amazing!
**[05:33] Mik**
That's a thing?
**[05:35] Nao**
Of course.
**[05:36] Tou**
Go peek in the river. It's amazing.
**[05:47] Him**
Oh, neat!
**[05:49] Nao**
This is exciting!
**[05:54] Him**
Let's go!
**[05:55] Nao**
Right.
**[05:57] Mik**
What? Why are you wearing those underneath?
**[05:59] Tou**
Every Tajimi citizen knows to do that.
**[06:03] Tou**
See... you came prepared too.
**[06:09] MIk**
Oh, you're right.
**[06:11] Tou**
You look cute, Mika-chan.
**[06:14] Mik**
Senpai...
**[06:16] Him**
Hey!
**[06:18] Him**
Let's catch tons of eel and stuff ourselves
with as many fancy eel bowls as we can!
**[06:22] Mik**
Hold on, we're coming!
**[06:29] Him**
The cold water feels so good!
**[06:32] Tou**
An eel just touched my foot!
**[06:33] Nao**
The mucin is nice and slimy!
**[06:36] Mik**
Let's have an eel catching contest!
**[06:38] Mik**
The person in last place gets a punishment!
**[06:40] Him**
Huh?
**[06:41] Mik**
And go!
**[06:42] Him**
Hey, no fair!
**[06:45] Mik**
Come here!
**[06:48] Mik**
Gotcha!
**[06:50] Mik**
I think I'm first!
**[06:56] Nao**
Yes, you were fast, but you're
still only the second-best in Tajimi.
**[07:01] Mik**
What?!
**[07:02] Mik**
Then, who's the best?!
**[07:10] Him**
Wow Nao-chan!
**[07:12] Mik**
I'm not going to lose!
**[07:14] Him**
What?
**[07:17] Mik**
Kappa-san?
**[07:22] All**
That's so cute!
**[07:24] Him**
I've never seen one before.
**[07:26] Mik**
Where did you come from, Kappa-san?
**[07:30] Mik**
From the river, huh?
**[07:32] Nao**
That makes sense.
**[07:34] Mik**
What? You want me to follow you?
**[07:37] Mik**
Wait, we're coming!
**[07:50] Mik**
I had no idea the Toki river
was this wide and this deep.
**[07:53] Him**
It really is!
**[07:54] Him**
But wait... how come we can talk underwater?
**[07:58] Tou**
Let's just go with it.
**[08:00] Him**
Where's Kappa-chan?
**[08:02] Mik**
Over there?
**[08:06] All**
Is that Ryūgū-jō?!
**[08:09] All**
This is incredible!
**[08:11] Nao**
With those solemn expressions it's like
**[08:13] Nao**
an even grander version of
Taiyū-in's Koukamon in Nikko!
**[08:16] Nao**
No doubt about it, this is Ryūgū-jō!
**[08:19] Mik**
It's the Kappa-san.
**[08:22] Mik**
Wait!
**[08:38] Mik**
What... is this place?
**[08:40] Nao**
Ka pa pa.. run pa pa...
**[08:46] Mik**
That's so bright!
**[08:47] Tou**
Do they want us to go in?
**[08:49] Nao**
You know, you've got to go into a
tiger's den if you want to get a tiger cub.
**[08:52] Him**
Does that apply here?
**[08:58] Tou**
Is that...
**[08:59] Nao**
Look, they have a dais.
**[09:01] Nao**
A raised point on which the high
ranking persons would sit.
**[09:03] Mik**
That just looks like a stage.
**[09:06] Him**
A high ranking person in
Ryūgū-jō would be...
**[09:08] Mik**
Otohime-sama?
**[09:18] Him**
Who is that? I feel like
I've seen her before.
**[09:22] Mik**
That uniform looks nostalgic...
**[09:25] Nao**
That might be Taijmi High School's old uniform.
**[09:28] Nao**
Back when it was still a girls' school.
**[09:30] Tou**
Why do you know all this stuff?
**[09:32] Tok**
What are you talking about?
**[09:35] Tok**
It's me, it's me! Tokikawa Sachie!
**[09:39] Him**
Grandma?
**[09:41] Tok**
You got it!
**[09:42] Tok**
Surprised you, huh?
**[09:44] Tok**
I'm nothing to sneeze at when I'm
young and in a sailor outfit, huh?
**[09:47] Him**
Well, I mean even as my grandma
you were nothing to sneeze at...
**[09:54] Tok**
I'm going to sing for you now, so listen up!
**[09:56] Tok**
A real Tajimi song,
"The Chinese bell flower is blooming!"
**[09:59] Him**
Something's starting.
***SIGN*** Bowl Concert
**[10:02] Mik**
What's that?
**[10:03] Mik**
Is that a bowl sign?
**[10:05] Nao**
That's the score display for the
old hit show "Bowl Concert"!
**[10:10] Nao**
That one's for the full 30 points.
**[10:13] Song**
*It's blooming, it's blooming.*
***SIGN*** This song "The Chinese bell flower is blooming" is used for the regular broadcast of the Tajimi emergency radio system.
**[10:16] Song**
*The Chinese bell flower is blooming.*
**[10:19] Song**
*Moving into fall, all of them are blooming.*
**[10:24] Song**
*All over on the Kokei mountain path.*
**[10:27] Song**
*To the right and to the left.*
**[10:31] Song**
*I counted them, one by one!*
**[10:51] Mik**
Wait, I've seen this before!
**[10:54] Nao**
It's that local quiz show that was really
popular back in the day: Tenpari Quiz!
**[10:58] Nao**
You use these hats to indicate if you
think the question is right or wrong.
**[11:04] Sach**
Bring it on, Tenpari Quiz!
**[11:07] Sach**
Alright Dr. Genius, please
give us the next question!
**[11:11] Doc**
Question.
**[11:12] Doc**
There are more and more
pottery girls in Tajimi.
**[11:14] Doc**
Kukuri Mika-chan is the
cutest among them all.
**[11:20] Doc**
Beep boop.
**[11:23] Mik**
What is this? Can I say 'yes'?
**[11:25] Him**
What do you think, senpai?
**[11:26] Tou**
Isn't it fine?
**[11:29] Sach**
Now please put on your hats!
**[11:31] All**
Yes!
**[11:33] Sach**
Unanimously 'yes'!
**[11:35] Sach**
The prize for answering this correctly is a
one hundred year supply of super fluffy bread!
**[11:39] Mik**
Awesome!
**[11:41] Sach**
All right then, Dr. Genius.
What's the correct answer?
**[11:44] Dr.**
The correct answer is...
**[11:45] Sach**
The answer is?!
**[11:50] Dr.**
No!
**[11:51] Sach**
No!
**[11:52] Sach**
The answer is no!
**[11:54] Mik**
But why? Why?!
**[11:57] Dr.**
Too bad. Mika-chan is cute indeed,
but all pottery girls are cute.
**[12:03] Dr.**
Picking the cutest is impossible.
**[12:07] Mik**
That's not funny!
**[12:13] Mik**
What is this? Why?
**[12:14] Tou**
Because you were yelling!
**[12:16] Mik**
That's not possible!
**[12:18] Nao**
It has to be though, because it's happening!
**[12:20] Him**
Anyway, we need to get out of here.
**[12:27] Him**
Kukuri-chan.
**[12:28] Mik**
Huh? Wait, what happened
to the Tenpari Quiz?
**[12:31] Him**
We were just talking with my grandma
about shows from the past.
**[12:36] Him**
I think you were dreaming about it.
**[12:38] Mik**
I wanted my one hundred
year supply of bread!
**[12:40] Him**
What kind of dream is that?
**[12:50] Koi**
Hey-ho!
**[12:53] Koi**
I brought some warabi mochi.
**[13:02] Koi**
It's so peaceful here.
**[13:05] Tou**
It really is.
**[14:25] Mad**
Okay, so the bob-haired girl finally
figured out what she wants to do,

The store is so nice, too.

Yeah.

There's something there.

I think there's something there.

It says sweetfish.

Some similarities exist, yes.

sacred or something?

The entire area here is
just kappa everything.

Yeah, a space for kappa.

Could it be that the kappa live here?

*It's now September.*
**[00:10] him**
*The cushion...*
**[00:13] him**
*This could work.*
**[00:14] Mik**
Hime-chan!
**[00:16] Him**
*If someone were to sit on it, then...*
**[00:20] Him**
*That could really work!*
**[00:21] Mik**
Hime-chan!
**[00:22] Mik**
We're supposed to be making meat patties!
**[00:24] Him**
Oh, right! I got sidetracked.
**[00:27] Him**
* Ever since I decided to try making*
* a ceramic cushion for the contest,*
**[00:32] Him**
*that's all I could think about.*
**[00:35] Him**
Kukuri-chan, isn't that too much cheese?
**[00:37] Mik**
It's fine. If you love something,
you should put a lot of it in!
**[00:40] Him**
I guess you have a point.
**[00:42] Him**
It said online that square plates
tend to chip easily in the corners.
**[00:48] Mik**
Hime-chan!
**[00:49] Mik**
Meat! Patties!
**[00:50] Him**
Meat patties!
***SIGN*** Try your dish
**[00:58] Both**
Let's eat!
**[01:02] Mik**
Huh?
**[01:04] Mik**
It's empty inside?
**[01:06] Mik**
How did that happen?
**[01:09] Him**
It looks like the cheese got too melty
and was absorbed by the meat.
**[01:13] Mik**
Oh, no...
***SIGN*** Pound, Stretch, Subtract, and Add
**[02:46] Him**
Here I go!
**[02:48] Him**
I'm making that cushion!
**[02:50] Tou**
How are you going to make it?
**[02:52] Him**
I'll start by kneading it hard
and try to make its shape.
**[02:56] Him**
I've already tried a simulation of it.
**[02:59] Mik**
Probably meat patties.
**[03:04] Both**
*That's... quite the lump of clay.*
**[03:07] Him**
* Make a depression... so the*
* butt has a place to rest.*
**[03:12] Him**
I did it! I did it!
**[03:14] Him**
I went all out so the butt feels at home!
**[03:17] Both**
*That's fine, but...*
**[03:20] Tou**
It looks fragile.
**[03:21] Mik**
It looks heavy.
**[03:24] Tou**
A piece that thick will be
fragile for several reasons.
**[03:30] Tou**
But of course, if it's not thick enough,
**[03:31] Tou**
you'd worry that it would break the
moment someone sits on it.
**[03:35] Him**
Yeah...
**[03:36] Mik**
Don't worry! We'll try different
thicknesses and shapes.
**[03:40] Mik**
Let's just see what we can do!
**[03:42] Him**
All right! I got it, I got it!
**[04:03] Mik**
Did you finish all the
ones you could think of?
**[04:06] Him**
I did. Now I just have
to wait until they dry
**[04:08] Him**
and check their thickness and hardness.
**[04:12] Tou**
Why don't you take a breather, then?
**[04:14] Tou**
You've been wrestling with
clay for a whole week.
**[04:17] Him**
You're right. My arms feel puffy.
**[04:21] Nao**
Not as puffy as this!
**[04:23] Him**
Nao-chan!
**[04:24] Nao**
I was just having a little snack.
***SIGN*** Coiled Danish

She continues wrestling with the clay!
**[04:39] Him**
That's right!
***SIGN*** Café Tokishirou
**[04:40] him**
Oww!
**[04:47] him**
My arms hurt! They're so sore!
**[04:50] Sach**
Hime-chan?
**[04:52] Him**
Yeah...
**[04:53] Sach**
Lunch is ready.
**[04:55] Him**
I'm coming!
**[04:56] Him**
Ouch, ouch, ouch, ouch.
**[04:59] Him**
Great, somen noodles!
**[05:02] Dad**
Let's eat, then.
**[05:03] Him**
Let's eat!
**[05:13] Sach**
What are you doing?
**[05:15] Sach**
Is there a bug in there or something?
**[05:17] Him**
No, I was just thinking that this would
be good if I turned it over.
**[05:21] Sach**
Huh? What are you talking about?
**[05:24] Him**
I'm sorry.
**[05:27] Mik**
Oh, interesting...
**[05:34] Him**
It's done!
**[05:35] Mik**
That looks pretty light!
**[05:38] Nao**
Let me sit on it once it's dry.
**[05:39] Him**
Sure.
**[05:40] Nao**
What a thrill!
***SIGN*** Café Tokishirou
**[05:47] Koi**
It's taking so long...
**[05:49] Dad**
Oh, you mean Himeno's piece?
**[05:51] Dad**
Yeah, even when she gets home, she's very...
**[05:55] Koi**
No, not her.
**[05:56] Koi**
I'm talking about your new curry.
**[05:59] Dad**
Oh...
**[06:00] Koi**
I'm not worried about your daughter.
**[06:04] Koi**
Even if she's taking the long way,
I'm sure she'll have her eureka moment.
**[06:08] Dad**
I guess I'll have to keep up, then.
**[06:11] Koi**
What could it be?
**[06:13] Koi**
Something on the level of Tajimi's summer,
which is hot enough to roast you.
**[06:19] Dad**
Hot enough to roast you...
**[06:21] Dad**
Roast...
**[06:22] Mik**
The bisque firing is done!
**[06:26] voi**
Hmm, I see.
**[06:28] voi**
Uh hum.
**[06:31] voi**
Yeah...
**[06:31] voi**
Hmm, that's a nice one.
**[06:35] voi**
Nice.
**[06:38] Mik**
And so, I humbly request a test sitting!
**[06:41] Nao**
I shall do my best.
**[06:46] Nao**
Here I go.
**[07:04] Him**
That makes sense.
**[07:06] Mik**
Yeah.
**[07:07] Him**
In some ways, it was
exactly what I expected.
**[07:10] Him**
Next, Kukuri-chan, would you do the honors?
**[07:12] Mik**
I will!
**[07:13] Him**
Please start from this end.
**[07:15] Mik**
Here I go.
**[07:19] Mik**
Oh, this one is better.
Just perfect for my butt.
**[07:22] Mik**
Are they for putting on chairs?
**[07:23] Him**
Yep, or on tatami mats.
**[07:27] Mik**
Ow, ow, ow. It might be a
little too bumpy to sit on.
**[07:31] Him**
I see. I guess a more
level surface is better.
**[07:37] Him**
How can I make it comfortable
besides an indentation for the butt...
**[07:45] Him**
I mean, sometimes you sit on hard stuff,
and it doesn't seem to be such a big deal.
**[07:53] Him**
Wait a minute, what if I
put a cute cover over it?
**[07:59] Him**
That way, it wouldn't damage
the floor or the tatami mats.
**[08:02] Nao**
Then you just have a heavy cushion
with a hard mystery core.
**[08:06] Him**
Oh.
**[08:08] Him**
That's true.
**[08:09] Mik**
Okay, what if you made it donut-shaped
and then put a cushion in the hole?
**[08:13] Him**
You could just have the cushion, then.
**[08:16] Mik**
I guess...
**[08:17] Tou**
You don't have to force yourself
to make something to sit on.
**[08:20] Tou**
Instead, think about the
true nature of cushions
**[08:23] Tou**
and about how you can express
that through ceramics.
**[08:28] Tou**
What if you positioned
your work in that area?
**[08:31] Mik**
That sounds artsy! That's so cool!
**[08:33] Mik**
You can always count on Touko-senpai!
**[08:35] Him**
That kind of sounds like an installation...
**[08:45] Him**
I think I still want
something to sit on.
**[08:48] Him**
I want to try making a cushion
you can use at home.
**[08:51] Tou**
I see.
**[08:53] Tou**
Well, you still have over a
month until the deadline.
**[08:56] Tou**
And two weeks until the glaze firing
deadline, so let's keep trying.
**[09:00] Him**
Yeah!
**[09:01] Him**
* Here I was, still thinking*
* that I could manage.*
***SIGN*** Café Tokishirou
**[09:07] Him**
Two weeks have already passed!
**[09:09] Him**
And I haven't come up with a single thing!
**[09:11] Him**
What am I gonna do?
**[09:13] Nao**
Don't worry.
**[09:15] Nao**
I'm sure you'll come up with something.
**[09:17] Him**
Easy for you to say.
**[09:19] Nao**
Things like this always work out when
some unexpected catalyst
**[09:22] Nao**
suddenly makes everything click into place.
**[09:25] Him**
Will it really work out that way?
**[09:27] Nao**
My experience tells me that
80% of the time, it won't.
**[09:32] Him**
Nao-chan!
**[09:33] Nao**
There, there. What will be will be, so
let's just try to keep our chins up!
**[09:43] Nao**
What are you doing, Kurikuri-chan?
**[09:45] Mik**
I got mud in my hair, so I washed it.
**[09:47] Tou**
It always happens. Her meltdown
just ended a few moments ago.
**[09:51] Mik**
Don't say that!
**[09:55] Mik**
Ugh, braids are such a pain.
**[09:59] Him**
I'm good at that, so I'll do them for you.
**[10:01] Mik**
Are you sure?
**[10:01] Him**
Sure! At least it'll get
my mind off of things.
**[10:07] Him**
I used to do this all the time for
my friends back in grade school.
**[10:10] Mik**
You're good at this!
**[10:20] Mik**
Wh-What's wrong, Hime-chan?
**[10:23] Mik**
Is there still something in my hair?
**[10:26] Him**
Your hair.
**[10:28] Him**
It's so soft, but when it's
like this, it's hard.
**[10:33] Him**
Maybe that would work. A braid.
**[10:36] Mik**
Huh?
**[10:37] Him**
My piece for the contest.
**[10:39] Him**
I'm thinking about making
it out of braided coils.
**[10:44] Him**
That's it! I'll make one of the strands
of the braid out of paper or cloth!
**[10:49] Nao**
But won't that disappear when you fire it?
**[10:52] Him**
Yeah! Just like the cheese from
Kukuri-chan's meat patty!
**[10:56] Him**
When it's done firing, there will be
a strand-worth of empty space, right?
**[11:01] Him**
Then, if I thread a soft rope through there,
**[11:03] Him**
I can gently envelop the
coolness of the ceramic!
**[11:09] Him**
I feel like everything just
clicked into place!
**[11:19] Nao**
This one? Or this one?
**[11:20] Him**
This one!
**[11:22] Tou**
Especially where clay
and clay come together,
**[11:25] Tou**
you need to use a lot of slip
and connect them neatly.
**[11:28] Him**
Yes!
**[11:30] Tou**
Maybe you should wait until the
clay is dry to pull out the rope.
**[11:34] Him**
Alright, I'll do that!
**[11:38] Him**
*I feel like this could work.*
**[11:39] Him**
*This... could work!*
**[11:43] Him**
It's done!
**[11:48] Him**
What do you think?
**[11:49] Tou**
It looks good. I think it
could dry in two weeks.
**[11:54] Mik**
You did it. It'll be done
in time for the contest!
**[11:57] Nao**
Good job!
**[11:59] Him**
Not so hard!
***SIGN*** Two weeks later
**[12:06] Tou**
Yup, it's completely dry!
**[12:09] Him**
All right. Then I'll cut the string.
**[12:12] Him**
Carefully so I don't damage it...
**[12:17] Mik**
Wow, you really did make
an airy clay cushion!
**[12:22] Him**
All right, then I'll test
it with this soft rope.
**[12:31] Him**
*This might really be it.*
**[12:34] Him**
*It's cool, but yet still soft...*
**[12:39] Him**
*I feel like this could work.*
**[12:43] Him**
*And really...*
**[12:45] Him**
* I'm so excited right now,*
* my heart's pounding!*
**[12:48] Him**
*This is so much fun!*
**[12:51] Him**
It's done!
**[12:54] Mik**
It'll be cute once you color it.
**[12:56] Nao**
Jubilation!
**[13:00] Him**

**[01:45] tan**
Really? Wow!
**[01:47] wak**
So do a lot of students come
here on their way home?
**[01:50] Old**
Of the students, we had a
lot coming from Kita High,
**[01:52] txt**
Kisouma
Murase Sumiko-san
**[01:53] Old**
but now a lot of the graduates come.
**[01:55] Old**
They're all married now and
they bring their children.
**[01:55] hon**
That's beautiful!
**[01:59] ser**
That's so nice.
**[02:00] Old**
They all come to report.
**[02:02] wom**
You're Tajimi's mom!
**[02:03] wom**
Yeah!
**[02:03] wom**
Exactly. So they all come back.
**[02:06] tan**
It's nice when a place is
around for so long like this.
**[02:09] tan**
People keep coming back.
**[02:10] Old**
We've been here for fifty years.
**[02:12] wom**
Fifty years?!
**[02:13] wom**
That's wonderful.
**[02:14] wak**
I hope this place will be here forever.
**[02:16] tan**
Yes, I hope so too.
**[02:16] Old**
I see, I'll need do my best then.
**[02:20] nar**
* As we had this encounter,*
* I also remembered something.*
**[02:25] wak**
So my grandma... when i★Ris
had a live show in Gifu.
**[02:29] wak**
And my grandma couldn't come
see us if it wasn't in Gifu,
**[02:33] wak**
so she came that time, but since it was
dangerous to be around too many people,
**[02:38] wak**
she came to watch
the rehearsal instead.
**[02:40] tan**
That's so nice!
**[02:41] ser**
So you rehearsed for your grandma!
**[02:43] wak**
Right, so I was singing for my grandma.
**[02:46] wom**
I'm crying!
**[02:47] wak**
Right, I was like this.
**[02:49] ser**
Then you throw in,
"this is for you, Grandma!"
**[02:52] hon**
I'm really about to cry!
**[02:55] tan**
Me too!
**[02:57] wom**
That's so great! Really!
**[03:00] wak**
I was literally bawling.
**[03:01] ser**
It was a really big hall,
but she was in the back,
**[03:03] ser**
so she was far away in her
wheelchair, waving like this.
**[03:08] ser**
Grandma, you're so tiny!
**[03:10] wak**
Yeah, that's right.
**[03:10] ser**
She was so cute.
**[03:12] wak**
Yeah, then we all took a picture together.
**[03:14] wak**
This memory is really bringing back the tears.
**[03:16] hon**
That's honestly so nice.
**[03:18] hon**
It's so nice if you can
come home for a live show.
**[03:21] tan**
Yeah.
**[03:22] wak**
I was just happy she could
see me doing my best.
**[03:24] wom**
Your grandma must have been so happy.
**[03:26] tan**
You should be proud of that.
**[03:28] wak**
The same goes for all of you too.

***SIGN*** Shina Soba 880 Yen

**[03:59] nar**
* We're going to try the udon and ramen*
* you can only get here at Shinanoya!*
**[04:07] tan**
So good!
**[04:17] wom**
These noodles are chewy.
**[04:19] wom**
It's like a new type of ramen.
**[04:20] wom**
Right?
**[04:22] wom**
I've never eaten a ramen like this before.
**[04:25] ser**
It's nice to meet you, you're delicious!
**[04:26] wak**
The noodles are firmer and
have a different texture,
**[04:28] wak**
so it's completely different
from regular ramen.
**[04:31] hon**
The udon too...
**[04:33] hon**
The noodles are almost fluffy,
but still have a good bite.
**[04:37] wom**
This is a first!
**[04:39] ser**
I see why people come here.
You can only get this here.
**[04:44] wak**
It's not something you can get elsewhere.
**[04:45] tan**
The broth is a little too good.
I'm just drinking it up.
**[04:50] wom**
Right?
**[04:51] ser**
Amazing.
**[04:53] ser**
This is too good.
**[04:55] wom**
I've never had anything this good.
**[05:00] ser**
This is too tasty!
**[05:02] wom**
Honestly, amazingly delicious!
**[05:03] man**
You're too kind.
**[05:03] wom**
It's so good.
**[05:06] ser**
You don't really see thin
ramen like this up in Tokyo.
**[05:13] Old**
Yes, we've had many guests from
all over the country come
**[05:14] txt**
Shinanoya
Taki Masanobu-san
**[05:15] Old**
and say that they've never eaten
anything quite like this Shina soba.
**[05:19] Old**
I guess people say that
about the udon as well,
**[05:21] Old**
but this ramen has a bigger impact.
**[05:22] wom**
Ah yes, makes sense.
**[05:24] tan**
So how long does it take to make this, from
kneading the dough to making these noodles?
**[05:29] Old**
Well, the kneading, that process
takes about two hours.
**[05:35] wak**
The whole time like.
**[05:35] old**
The same motion the whole time.
**[05:37] wak**
That's crazy!
**[05:37] old**
After that there are obviously
a bunch of other steps,
**[05:40] old**
like stretching and cutting.
**[05:41] old**
The last step is you boil
the noodles in the pot.
**[05:44] old**
That boiling step takes about an hour.
**[05:47] wom**
What?! An hour?
**[05:48] Old**
Yes, the udon.
**[05:50] wom**
I never imagined that.
**[05:52] Old**
When you cook them for over an hour,
**[05:53] Old**
they get soft down to
their very core or melt.
**[05:56] hon**
Right.
**[05:57] wom**
The body...
**[05:58] wak**
They do have body still.
**[05:59] wom**
Right.
**[05:59] Old**
Right, to get this texture,
I need to cook them for that hour.
**[06:00] wom**
It's so mysterious.
**[06:02] wom**
Amazing.
**[06:04] old**
In Tajimi, there are a lot of
potters making mugs and bowls.
**[06:12] old**
And just like people say that you
can see the maker's personality and
**[06:16] old**
way of life in their creations,
and I may be over the top here,
**[06:19] old**
but these udon and Shina soba
noodles are my creations.
**[06:24] wom**
There is no doubt about that!
**[06:26] old**
This is my way of life
or who I am as a human.
**[06:27] hon**
Makes sense.
**[06:35] old**
That's what I think about when I make these.
**[06:36] wom**
Those words really sink in deep.
**[06:38] wom**
I'm getting emotional.
**[06:42] wom**
I hope you will keep doing
this for a long, long time!
**[06:44] Old**
Thank you.
**[06:45] wom**
Please do!
**[06:47] tan**
This was wonderful.
**[06:48] wom**
Yeah.
**[06:49] wom**
This was so valuable.
**[06:51] wom**
Thank you so much.
**[06:52] Old**
No, thank you.
**[06:53] wom**
You're so cool.
**[06:54] wom**
Thank you so much!
**[06:55] wom**
We got so much energy from this.
**[06:58] Old**
That's good to hear.

I was absorbed in thinking

**[00:53] (Flashback) nao**
I thought you already had something in mind.

**[02:52] Nao**
So cool!
**[02:54] him**
The glaze can change the appearance so much.
**[02:58] him**
Not just the color, but the texture, too.
**[03:01] him**
And the depth...
**[03:04] him**
Blah...
**[03:06] nao**
What's wrong? You've been

Blah...

**[03:17] him**
That's affecting me too, but...
**[03:21] him**
I just don't know what color will fit best.
**[03:27] nao**
Why not just go with what you feel is right?
**[03:29] him**
But then I feel like everything seems good.
**[03:34] him**
I tried asking Touko-senpai about it...
**[03:39] (Flashback) tou**
Well, I'm always in a
conversation with the clay,
**[03:44] (Flashback) tou**
so I let the clay make that decision...
**[03:47] nao**
That's too fanciful an answer.
**[03:50] him**
Right? So then I asked Kukuri-chan.
**[03:53] (Flashback) mik**
Hm, it's the same as drawing
or picking clothes.
**[03:58] (Flashback) him**
Meaning?
**[03:59] (Flashback) mik**
Just, runruu.
**[04:02] (Flashback) him**
What's runruu?
**[04:04] (Flashback) mik**
Oh,sorry. That's hard to understand, huh?
**[04:06] (Flashback) mik**
Runruu is... runruu?
**[04:10] (Flashback) him**
That didn't explain anything!
**[04:12] (Flashback) mik**
Hime-chan is mad at me!
**[04:14] nao**
I think that was justified.
**[04:17] him**
In the end, I understood
that the input of geniuses
**[04:19] him**
and doofuses is not very helpful.

I guess all I did was listen to her story.
***SIGN*** Closed today
**[04:44] tok**
Okay.
**[04:45] ---**
Good morning.
**[04:46] ---**
Oh, good morning.
**[04:48] nao**
Is Hime-chan almost ready?
**[04:50] tok**
I think you might want to
go ahead on your own today.
**[04:54] tok**
She seems to be avoiding reality.
**[04:56] nao**
Avoiding reality?
**[04:58] tok**
Up until middle school,
we took turns making food.
**[05:07] tok**
After starting high school, she only
does this when she's stuck on something.
**[05:10] tok**
Like when an exam is coming up.
**[05:14] nao**
I should show her that!
**[05:17] nao**
That's a great idea!
**[05:20] nao**
Gwood dway.
**[05:26] nao**
Where is Hime-chan?
**[05:27] mik**
Naruse-san...
**[05:29] mik**
Hime-chan said she won't be coming
here until she has picked her colors!
**[05:33] tou**
Apparently all the glaze samples here
are making it even harder to decide.
**[05:38] nao**
Isn't she over-thinking it?
**[05:41] tou**
You could say that's a very
Toyokawa-san thing to do.
**[05:44] nao**
It's clear now. That's the only way.
**[06:07] nao**
I finally found you.
**[06:08] him**
Nao-chan!
**[06:10] nao**
You're stuck.
**[06:13] nao**
When I skipped self-study hour
to go on a walk the other day,
**[06:16] nao**
I found a cool spot.
**[06:18] him**
You just casually admit a crime...
**[06:19] nao**
Let's go!
**[06:21] him**
Nao-chan!
**[06:29] him**
Oh, it was this spot!
**[06:31] nao**
Wait, you know it?
**[06:33] him**
Yeah, this is actually my mom's work.
**[06:38] nao**
Wow, my surprise just doubled!
**[06:51] him**
But when I see this, I want
to make it this color.
**[06:55] nao**
What's wrong with that?
**[06:57] him**
My mom was so amazing,
**[07:00] him**
and right now I can't even
dream of being on her level.
**[07:02] him**
It would just be imitating her.
**[07:05] nao**
Imitating her is fine.
**[07:09] nao**
Everybody starts with imitation.
**[07:11] nao**
There are alternate theories,
**[07:13] nao**
but some say that the Japanese word
for "learn" comes from "imitate."
**[07:17] nao**
What's your honest opinion about that color?
**[07:25] him**
It looks like it would be cool.
It makes me want to put my cheek to it.
**[07:30] nao**
Exactly!
**[07:34] nao**
That feels good.
**[07:41] him**
Yeah, that feels nice.
**[07:44] nao**
You know what your dad said?
**[07:46] nao**
When you're trying to make someone happy,
**[07:48] nao**
it's the best if you're having fun yourself.
**[07:51] him**
My dad said that?
**[07:53] nao**
Yup.
**[07:54] (Flashback) tok**
When I open the lid,
it's all colorful and fun
**[07:57] (Flashback) tok**
It feels like Himeno had fun
when she was making it.
**[08:03] him**
Now that you mention it...
**[08:09] (Flashback) him**
Nice and colorful.
**[08:11] (Flashback) him**
Oh, the meatball will be a secret,
**[08:14] (Flashback) him**
so I'll hide it under the scrambled egg.
**[08:18] (Flashback) him**
I wonder if dad will be surprised.
**[08:21] (Flashback) sac**
It looks like you're having fun, Hime-chan.
**[08:23] (Flashback) him**
Oh, really?
**[08:28] him**
Is that runruu?
**[08:35] nao**
Hime-chan?
**[08:36] him**
This is the super giga MAX runruu!
**[08:41] him**
Thanks, Nao-chan!
I've settled on a color now!
**[08:43] nao**
Oh, that took a sudden turn!
**[08:45] him**
I don't know what was wrong with me!
**[08:47] him**
I had already picked this color ages ago!
**[08:53] tou**
You've decided?
**[08:55] him**
Yes! I want to try this!
**[08:57] tou**
This is called crystalline
glaze and honestly,
**[09:00] tou**
it's extremely challenging.
**[09:03] tou**
Do you still want to do it?
**[09:05] him**
Yes!
**[09:06] nao**
Now it's time to learn!
**[09:09] tou**
Should we start with why glaze is even used?
**[09:13] him**
It's to work around the porous
and brittle nature of bisque, right?
**[09:18] tou**
Yes. To do that, you mix things
that will turn into glass
**[09:23] tou**
and things that will bond with the surface,
**[09:25] tou**
and by adding various metal oxides,
**[09:28] tou**
you can get a desired color.
**[09:29] tou**
Crystalline glazes are glazes where you
can clearly see the crystals inside it.
**[09:36] tou**
To do this you lower the temperature
of the kiln 100 to 150 degrees Celsius
**[09:40] tou**
from its maximum temperature and give
the crystals 2-3 hours to grow.
**[09:44] him**
The crystals grow?
**[09:46] tou**
That's right.
**[09:48] tou**
But if the maximum temperature is
too low, the crystals won't grow very large,
**[09:52] tou**
and if it's too high or you wait too long,
**[09:54] tou**
the crystals might disappear completely.
**[09:57] tou**
The crystal growth will be stunted
if the layer of glaze is too thin, as well.
**[10:00] him**
Wow, that sounds really challenging.
**[10:04] nao**
To start, an experiment using
a plate made from the same clay
**[10:07] nao**
that the cushion was made from is conducted.
**[10:09] nao**
After a day, the results of
the firing are observed.

* monument did not appear,"*
**[10:18] nao**
* "the first attempt at the*
* color was a success."*
**[10:22] nao**

* wrote down all the data"*
**[10:25] nao**
* "on the firing time and the composition*
* of the individual glaze components."*
**[10:29] nao**
* "She then made small adjustments*
* and went for round two."*
**[10:34] nao**
* "This time, the flower patterns*
* appeared, but the color was iffy."*
**[10:39] nao**
* "Success doesn't come easily, but*
* it seems Hime-chan is having fun."*
**[10:44] nao**
*"Good, good."*
**[10:49] nao**
*I wonder how tomorrow will go.*
**[10:58] tou**
Looks good!
**[10:59] mik**
Nice!
**[10:59] nao**
Yes.
**[11:01] him**
It's just like I imagined!
**[11:03] him**
Yay!
**[11:36] nao**
*"It's finally been put in the kiln."*
**[11:39] nao**
*Now there's no going back!*
**[11:40] nao**
* "The only thing she can do is*
* wait for the firing to be done!"*
**[11:44] nao**
*Gods, Buddha, Himena-sama...*
**[11:49] nao**
*Please let it go well!*
**[12:02] tou**
I'll open it.
**[12:04] him**
Yes.
**[12:16] him**
This!
**[12:17] him**
Yes!
**[12:19] mik**
You did it, Hime-chan!
**[12:20] mik**
The flower pattern came out!
**[12:23] tou**
The color's not quite what
you had planned, but...
**[12:26] him**
That's still fine! This might be
better than what I had planned!
**[12:29] tou**
Exactly, I like this color as well!
**[12:32] him**
Thank you so much, Touko-senpai!
**[12:35] him**
Now I just need to put the soft rope in!
**[12:43] him**
Yay! It's done!
**[12:47] nao**
* As I was able to capture a lot of*
* greats shots of Hime-chan's face,*
**[12:50] nao**
*I'm also satisfied!*
**[12:52] nao**
* I didn't say it, but I also thought*
* the color turned out really well.*
**[12:56] nao**
* Now the next thing coming*
* up is the actual contest!*
**[13:00] nao**
*Could it be, maybe, potentially...*
**[13:03] nao**
* that she gets some sort*
* of prize or something?*

Can we start painting?
**[01:38] wom**
Shall we?!
**[01:38] hon**
Let's do it!
**[01:39] ser**
We have to pick our colors first.
**[01:40] ser**
There's some samples, but...
**[01:42] wom**
Yeah, they're labeled here, too.
**[01:44] wom**
What should I do?
**[01:44] wom**
It's so hard to choose.
**[01:46] wak**
So this sample is showing us
how vibrant a color can be, right?
**[01:51] yam**
Yes, that's right.
**[01:52] wak**
I see.
**[01:53] ser**
What should I pick?
**[01:57] hon**
I can't decide!
**[02:00] wak**
The color from the tube
looks completely different.
**[02:04] wom**
Yeah, true.
**[02:06] wak**
It makes me really nervous.
**[02:07] wak**
I'm afraid it won't turn into
this color, but it will, right?
**[02:10] yam**
Yes, it will.
**[02:12] wom**
The doubt!
**[02:13] yam**
When you first put the colors on,
they might look quite matte or pale,
***SIGN*** About Painting
The color will get more vibrant after firing,
so keep it on the lighter side.
**[02:17] yam**
but they get more intense once you fire them.
**[02:18] wom**
Ah, keep it lighter.
**[02:19] ser**
So you have to keep in mind
that the colors will deepen.
**[02:25] wak**
I'm just going to charge ahead.
**[02:26] wak**
I'm starting to paint!
**[02:28] wom**
By the way, the firing of these
won't finish today, right?
**[02:31] wom**
That'll be next time, right?
**[02:32] wom**
Aw!
**[02:35] wom**
Ack, what should I do?
**[02:38] wom**
You guys are already forging ahead.
**[02:40] ser**
Do you all already have an idea in mind?
**[02:41] all**
More or less.
**[02:44] hon**
I just made a snap decision.
**[02:46] hon**
You guys have a plan?
**[02:47] tan**
I was thinking, I'd make something
that Himeno-chan would.
**[02:51] hon**
Something Himeno-chan-esque?
**[02:52] tan**
Himeno-chan-esque.
**[02:53] hon**
That sounds good.
**[02:53] tan**
She has pink hair and pink is
the color I associate with her.
**[02:59] tan**
So I thought cherry blossoms or something.
**[03:03] wak**
Hearts... but this is already a heart
so I don't have to draw any more.
**[03:07] wom**
The impact's there.
**[03:09] ser**
I'm kind of surprised you're using
that color though, for a heart.
**[03:12] wak**
I thought I'd use two colors.
**[03:15] wak**
I figured it would be boring
to just have a red heart.
**[03:18] ser**
I see.
**[03:19] hon**
My theme is making a plate
that makes you happy.
**[03:25] hon**
So I'm thinking of making mine colorful.
**[03:29] tan**
Wait, I think this is pretty cute.
**[03:31] wom**
That's good!
**[03:32] tan**
Smile, smile.
**[03:33] wom**
Wow, that's really good!
**[03:34] wom**
Nice!
**[03:35] wom**
That's, that's really good!
**[03:37] tan**
I'm drawing cherry blossoms.
**[03:38] wom**
That's amazing Tanaka-san!
**[03:39] wom**
That's so good.
**[03:42] hon**
I'm really struggling with the
bumps I made with my own hands.
**[03:45] tan**
I know what you mean.
**[03:48] hon**
When I was using my fingers to make
the plate, I didn't notice them.
**[03:53] yam**
When you fire them, they
become more pronounced.
**[03:55] hon**
It's kind of interesting to feel them now.
**[04:04] tan**
Himeno had such a hard time
choosing her colors.
**[04:07] wom**
Oh, yeah!
**[04:08] wom**
She really did!
**[04:09] tan**
And it'll change again, once it's fired.
**[04:11] hon**
Yeah.
**[04:13] wak**
You have to be ready.
**[04:14] wak**
This is an artistic challenge.
**[04:17] nar**
*I really struggled to take my first step.*
**[04:23] wom**
You can't make a mistake.
**[04:26] wom**
Wow, if you rub the pencil marks
with your finger, they go away.
**[04:28] wom**
Oh, really?
**[04:30] wom**
Oh, you're right. It went away.
**[04:31] wak**
To think this was made from clay.
**[04:38] ser**
There's no white, right?
**[04:40] wom**
Right.
**[04:44] yam**
If you don't paint it, it'll be white.
**[04:45] ser**
Right, if you don't paint it, it's white!
**[04:46] ser**
So leave it blank.
**[04:49] wom**
It's hard to do that.
**[04:51] ser**
Can I do this? I just gotta do it!
**[04:57] wom**
Just a bit more.
**[05:00] ser**
Oh, this color is really
pale. It's really pale.
**[05:02] ser**
You need a sizable amount of
paint to get a decent color.
**[05:06] nar**
*Everyone's concentrating so hard.*
**[05:06] ser**
See?
**[05:10] ser**
So what color do you think I should do next?
**[05:13] ser**
Yellow, pink, purple, blue, green.
**[05:19] ser**
What color do you think I should do next?
**[05:22] ser**
Dark green?
**[05:23] wak**
The color of you.
**[05:24] tan**
You're letting us vote?
**[05:26] Girl**
The color of you? Does that mean me?
**[05:30] Girl**
The color of me. I wonder what that color is.
**[05:34] nar**
* With that kind of talk,*
* a whole hour went by in a flash*
**[05:37] nar**
*and the plates were painted!*
**[05:40] nar**
*So how did we all do!?*
**[05:42] hon**
So I just made a snap decision
and just put colors down
**[05:47] hon**
and ended up with something that
might be at a king's banquet.
**[05:50] wom**
Ah I see it!
**[05:50] wom**
Totally.
**[05:51] wom**
That's amazing!
**[05:52] hon**
I think the plate turned
out good, but the back.
**[05:55] hon**
The back's reserved.
***SIGN*** Yakumo
**[05:58] Girl**
You would!
**[05:59] Girl**
That's the most Hon-chan
thing you could have done!
**[06:01] hon**
Yup.
**[06:01] wak**
And your handwriting is pretty!
**[06:02] hon**
Really?
**[06:03] tan**
That's just too cool.
**[06:05] hon**
I wanted to have some contrast.
**[06:08] hon**
A plate with a contrast.
**[06:09] wom**
Yeah, the back's reserved,
the front's lively.
**[06:11] wom**
That's cute.
**[06:11] hon**
So that's it.
**[06:12] Girl2**
Since Himeno-chan's color really is pink,
**[06:18] Girl2**
and when I think pink,
I think cherry blossoms.
**[06:20] Girl2**
So I tried to paint some cherry blossoms.
**[06:22] wom**
It looks really good! It's not just pink!
**[06:25] hon**
The gradation is amazing!
**[06:25] tan**
The purple happened to be a perfect fit.
**[06:28] tan**
So I went with pink and light purple.
**[06:30] wom**
Cute!
**[06:31] tan**
In the middle I tried some gradation,
**[06:34] tan**
but I am a bit worried about
how that will turn out.
**[06:38] wom**
Right.
**[06:39] wom**
So cute.
**[06:39] tan**
Here on the back I wrote the
name of our show and my mark.
**[06:46] ser**
Almost like an avatar.
**[06:47] wom**
An avatar! Yeah, it really is like an avatar.
**[06:50] hon**
Our hands are our avatars!
**[06:52] wak**
So I did a heart.
**[06:54] wom**
That's so cute!
**[06:54] wom**
Cute!
**[06:54] wak**
I thought I'd just do something simple.
***SIGN*** Thank you for the meal

**[07:08] wom**
That's super cute!
**[07:10] tan**

**[07:27] tan**

**[07:30] ser**
Nothing, nothing.
**[07:31] wom**
What are you adding at this point?
**[07:31] wom**
You added something!
**[07:33] wom**
You added something!
**[07:34] ser**
For the front of my plate,
**[07:36] wom**
That's adorable!
**[07:36] ser**
I wanted to make it colorful,
**[07:39] wom**
So cute!
**[07:39] ser**
so I used a bunch of colors.
**[07:41] ser**
Since the shape's already quite unique,
**[07:43] ser**
I wanted something that makes an impact.
**[07:45] ser**
And then, since it's a cat,
I put a fish on the back.
**[07:49] hon**
Oh yeah!
**[07:50] wom**
Fish!
**[07:52] ser**
And I wrote "Yakumo" on here, too.
**[07:53] wak**
I'll do that too!
**[07:55] ser**
I wrote "Yakumo" on here, too!
**[07:57] tan**
Once you start painting, you can't go back.
**[08:00] hon**
Yeah, no going back.
**[08:02] tan**
There are areas where you won't know what
it looks like until you start painting.
**[08:07] tan**
It really makes you concentrate.
**[08:09] ser**
Yeah. Me, too.
**[08:09] tan**
I was so focused.
**[08:10] wak**
We all were.
**[08:12] hon**
But we were all interacting
while we were working,
**[08:14] hon**
so it was really like we were there.
**[08:17] tan**
This is that time, huh?
**[08:19] wak**
I forgot to talk.
**[08:21] hon**
It went by in a flash though, an entire hour.
**[08:23] wom**
It did.
**[08:25] wom**
It went by so fast.
**[08:26] wak**
You can really get lost in it.
**[08:27] tan**
You get sucked in.
**[08:29] tan**
I feel like there's no limit
to how long you can do this.
**[08:31] wom**
Yeah. You keep thinking, wait,
I can make this a little better.
**[08:33] wak**
There's no end.
**[08:34] wom**
There's no end.
**[08:35] tan**
Keep going until you're really satisfied.
**[08:39] nar**
* We were so focused on painting our*
* plates that we forgot we were on TV.*
**[08:43] nar**
* I can't wait to see what*

**[08:45] wom**
So should we start?
***SIGN*** Next time:

Let's go.

**[00:25] (Flashback) Dad**
You finished your entry
for the contest, right?
**[00:27] (Flashback) Dad**
I can't wait to see it.
**[00:30] Hime**
*But that won't be for a while.*
***SIGN*** I Want to Win a Prize Now
**[02:06] Hime**
It's done!
**[02:09] Hime**
I was wondering how this would all turn out,
**[02:11] Hime**
but now that it's done, I feel so relieved!
**[02:14] Nao**
What do you mean, "done"?
**[02:16] Hime**
Huh?
**[02:17] Nao**
You're not done until the results
of the contest are announced.
**[02:21] Hime**
Oh, yeah. The entries are judged, huh?
**[02:23] Nao**
*How could you forget?*
**[02:24] Hime**
But this is the first time I'm entering.
**[02:26] Hime**
There's no way I'm going to win anything.
**[02:28] Nao**
Hey, you should be at
least a little excited.
**[02:31] Nao**
Otherwise, why did you even make it?
**[02:35] Hime**
Why did I...
**[02:41] Hime**
I told you that delicious smells
after nine are terrorism, right?!
**[02:47] Dad**
I don't remember you saying
anything that extreme.
**[02:49] Hime**
So what kind of curry is it this time?
**[02:51] Hime**
It smells so good, it must be really tasty.
**[02:55] Dad**
Come see for yourself.
**[02:58] Dad**
It's a baked curry!
**[03:02] Hime**
I... I won't eat any of
that! It's past nine!
**[03:09] Hime**
You monster.
**[03:12] Dad**
But it was good, huh?
**[03:14] Hime**
Yeah. But you know that wouldn't
be a truly new item, right?
**[03:18] Hime**
A lot of places have a baked curry.
**[03:21] Dad**
Yeah...
**[03:23] Dad**
I wanted to make something related
to Tajimi's hot weather and ceramics.
**[03:27] Dad**
But I want to add one
more Tajimi-esque touch.
**[03:31] Hime**
Something Tajimi-esque, huh?
**[03:35] Hime**
*Hey...*
**[03:37] Hime**
*That's the bowl I made.*
**[03:40] Hime**
What's that doing here?
**[03:43] Dad**
Oh, I thought I'd try a curry-chazuke.
**[03:49] Dad**
I've grown quite fond of this bowl.
**[03:53] Hime**
Oh? I'm glad.
**[03:58] Hime**
* I knew it. He wasn't so*
* happy with it at first.*
**[04:04] Nao**
* Hey, you should be at*
* least a little excited.*
**[04:07] Nao**
*Otherwise, why did you even make it?*
**[04:14] Hime**
*I get it now.*
**[04:18] Hime**
* Somewhere in my heart, I wanted*
* redemption for that other time.*
**[04:27] Hime**
Redemption...
**[04:38] HIme**
Tajimi summers really are hot.
**[04:42] HIme**
Wait, does Gifu prefecture
have a coastline?
**[04:46] Kuj**
Of course not!
**[04:49] Hime**
That's what I thought, Whale-kun!
**[04:52] Kuj**
I'm a salmon! Isn't that obvious?!
**[04:59] Hime**
But what are you blowing out of your head?
**[05:03] Kuj**
Hey, I don't like it either,
**[05:05] Kuj**
but it's your fault for
drawing me like a whale.
**[05:09] Hime**
Oh, right.
**[05:11] Kuj**
Don't you need to go over there?
**[05:20] Hime**
Over there?
**[05:30] Hime**
I knew it. It's the door to
our house's living room.
**[05:38] Hime**
It's grandma.
**[05:41] Hime**
Wait, why is that already here?
**[05:45] Dad**
You must be tired after work.
**[05:47] gran**
Tired? Oh, no. I'm about to play a new game.
**[05:51] Dad**
This...
**[05:54] Dad**
...must be one of Himeno's pranks.
**[05:56] Dad**
Jeez.
**[05:58] Gran**
Huh. That cushion looks awfully hard.
**[06:01] Gran**
This won't do at all.
**[06:03] Hime**
No!
**[06:13] HIm**
Why did I have to dream that?!
**[06:18] [Messenger] txt**
I sense food terrorism
So I'll go complain
**[06:18] [Messenger] txt**
Whoa
**[06:19] [Messenger] txt**
I sense food terrorism

I suddenly got anxious about how
the ceramic cushion will do

We finally made it to
Ceramics Park MINO!
**[06:57] Mik**
Contest day is here at last
and it sure would be nice
**[06:59] Mik**
if all three of us won some sort of award.
**[07:02] Mik**
Right, Touko-senpai?
**[07:04] Tou**
It's not like I made it for an award.
**[07:07] Mik**
What about you, Hime-chan?
**[07:08] Hime**
Huh?
**[07:09] Hime**
Well, if possible, I'd like to get one.
**[07:12] Mik**
Right? Right!
**[07:13] Hime**
I mean, if I got an award, then...
**[07:16] Mik**
Then what? What?
**[07:20] Hime**
It's a secret.
**[07:21] Mik**
Heeeey!
**[07:35] Him**
Wow, there's so many!
**[07:37] Him**
So everyone here submitted something?
**[07:41] Tou**
The event only opens to the public tomorrow.
**[07:43] Mik**
First things first! We need to go
see that our own entries are here!
**[07:48] Tou**
Why wouldn't they be?
**[07:50] Hime**
Right?
**[07:52] Mik**
I found them!
***SIGN*** Oribe Academy

**[07:59] Mik**
Your entry really has a commanding
presence, Touko-senpai!
**[08:04] Hime**
Just by virtue of being next to yours,
mine looks fancy, too.
**[08:09] Mik**
Huh?
***SIGN*** Center of the dining table
**[08:10] Mik**
There's something stuck over your title.
**[08:14] Tou**
Red markers are added to pieces that really
stood out during the submission appraisals.
**[08:18] Mik**
Oh, wow! You are so amazing!
**[08:21] Mik**
Oh, but look, mine has one, too!
***SIGN*** Oribe Academy High School

***SIGN*** Everybody gather 'round
**[08:26] Tou**
You are way too loud.
***SIGN*** It's a cushion
**[08:34] Hime**
I guess it's not surprising
that I didn't get one.
**[08:37] Tou**
But the judges can also give awards
during the final appraisal
**[08:41] Tou**
after they see the real thing.
**[08:44] Tou**
I'm sorry, but let's take
this somewhere else.
**[08:47] Mik**
Senpai?
**[08:55] Mik**
Hey, isn't that your grandfather?
**[08:59] Tou**
Really? That important-looking person
in the traditional clothing?
**[09:02] Mik**
And I wanted to hit him with a "hiya!"
**[09:05] Tou**
Which is exactly why I wanted to leave.
**[09:07] Tou**
We're contestants, so we can't be
casually talking to the judges.
**[09:11] Tou**
I haven't spoken about
my piece at home, either.
**[09:15] Hime**
It's pretty strict, huh?
**[09:18] koik**
Now this is really something.
**[09:21] koik**
Aoki-sensei. It's your
granddaughter's entry.
**[09:26] kus**
I expected as much.
**[09:29] kus**
This year's entry is yet another cut above.
**[09:31] koik**
I know you haven't been
teaching her directly,
**[09:34] koik**
but you can tell it runs in the family.
**[09:39] kus**
And this here...
**[09:41] koik**
Now this...
**[09:43] Guy**
It's quite different.
**[09:45] Wom**
A cushion! Could you sit on this?
**[09:49] Wom**
That's funny.
**[09:50] Mik**
Hime-chan, one of them is
staring at your piece!
**[09:54] Hime**
Yeah...
**[09:55] Tou**
Kusano-sensei.
**[09:57] Tou**
He was the advisor of the
ceramics club up until last year.
**[10:00] Mik**
I never met him though, even though
I came to the club room quite a few times.
**[10:03] Tou**
He's gotten recognition from
international potters,
**[10:05] Tou**
so now he's involved in the
government's cultural affairs.
**[10:09] Him**
Wow, that's very impressive.
**[10:11] Mik**
It's so cool that someone like him
is staring at your piece!
**[10:15] Him**
Y-You think so? I feel like
he might be thinking it's a joke.
**[10:19] Mik**
He's studying it with a smile!
**[10:23] Him**
I hope that's what he's doing.
**[10:28] Mik**
That's so innovative!
**[10:30] Mik**
So cute!
**[10:35] Mik**
This is amazing!
**[10:37] Mik**
Look, look! This is too much fun!
**[10:40] Tou**
Everything is so creative,
I'm kind of jealous.
**[10:44] Dad**
*You got the award of excellence?!*
**[10:46] Dad**
That's amazing, Himeno!
**[10:50] Dad**
May I sit on it?
**[10:51] Hime**
Go ahead.
**[10:54] Dad**
Then here I go.
**[10:59] Dad**
Wow, this is unbelievable!
**[11:02] Dad**
It's cool and yet it's soft!
**[11:05] Dad**
It's spectacular, Himeno. It's marvelous!
**[11:10] Hime**
*These daydreams are horrible.*
**[11:13] Mik**
Hey, Hime-chan. Look, look!
**[11:17] Hime**
What is this? It's really weird!
**[11:20] Mik**
It's called "Daycare Moms' Chat."
**[11:23] Tou**
It's a caricature of the darker
sides of kindergartners' mothers.
**[11:28] Mik**
Oh, there's an interpretation
that's difficult to follow!
**[11:31] Tou**
Not only does it carry a lot of impact,
**[11:33] Tou**
this piece is technically
impressive as well.
**[11:35] Tou**
They do an excellent job using
different types of glazes.
**[11:39] Mik**
Yeah! They've got a marker, too.
**[11:42] Him**
* Their piece not only tells a story,*
* but it's technically impressive, too.*
**[11:47] MIk**
Huh? What's this?
**[11:48] MIk**
This piece is called "Take a peek inside."
**[11:53] MIk**
Well, looks like we have no choice!
**[11:56] MIk**
Wow, it's like a treasure chest in there!
**[11:59] Him**
Let me see.
**[12:02] Him**
You're right! That's so fun!
**[12:04] Both**
Thank you!
**[12:06] Him**
Huh? You... You made this piece?
**[12:11] Girl**
That's right!
**[12:12] Girl**
It's a joint entry.
**[12:13] Mik**
Wow, that sounds like so much fun!
**[12:16] Girl**
We divided up the work.
I made the outside...
**[12:19] Girl2**
...and I worked on the details inside.
**[12:22] Tou**
That's a great idea!
I would never have thought of it.
**[12:27] Him**
*Everyone did such a great job.*
**[12:31] Him**
* Their pieces are not just fun,*
* but also totally solidly executed.*
**[12:38] Him**
* Suddenly, mine just*
* seems so underwhelming.*
**[12:44] Him**
* I don't know if I can get*
* my redemption with this...*
**[12:47] Mik**
Senpai, over there!
It's your grandpa again!
***SIGN*** 41st Mino Ware Contest Judges' Deliberation Room

Looks like the final
deliberation is happening.

*Suddenly, I don't care what I get.*
**[13:00] Hime**
* Even if it's just an award*
* for making someone chuckle,*
**[13:03] Hime**
* I want to get something and then*

**[03:16] hon**
Maybe the broccoli?
**[03:18] wak**
Yeah, the broccoli.
**[03:18] hon**
Let's defeat that first.
**[03:21] nar**
*While we had picked our ingredients,*
**[03:24] nar**
* we only started to think about*
* what kind of curry we wanted to make*
**[03:27] nar**
*while cutting the vegetables.*
**[03:29] wak**
I live alone, so I don't
really cook that much.
**[03:32] hon**
This is hard, but you want
to try cutting the stem?
**[03:34] wak**
The stem? You're using that?
**[03:36] hon**
The stem is really good.
**[03:37] hon**
You cut off some of the
skin when you use it.
**[03:42] hon**
That looks good.
**[03:46] wak**
How should we use this though? As a topping?
**[03:51] hon**
Good question.
**[03:52] hon**
There is a lot of it, so...
**[03:53] hon**
I'll start cutting the carrots.
**[03:55] tan**
...sometimes...
**[03:56] wak**
We'll use this later as a topping,
**[04:00] wak**
so we cook it just a tiny bit at the end.
**[04:03] hon**
You want to cook those?
**[04:04] wak**
Yeah. Cook them.
**[04:05] wak**
Or use it raw?
**[04:07] hon**
What should we do?
**[04:08] wak**
Yeah, what should we do?
**[04:10] hon**
What about the carrots?
**[04:11] hon**
Do you want to grill them
and add them on the end?
**[04:12] wak**
Let's use some for grilling
and some in the curry.

* We're making it up as we go along,*
* but how are our neighbors doing?*
**[04:24] ser**
We have to start with the vegetables, huh.
**[04:26] tan**
I think I've got to move away from
here, Yū-chan. I don't belong here.
**[04:29] ser**
You really think so?
**[04:31] tan**
You know, I'll go get the pot.
**[04:35] ser**
I'll peel the vegetables
we're going to put in.
**[04:40] tan**
Then I'll do the big one here.
**[04:45] tan**
I guess we'll cut this potato into rings?
**[04:47] tan**
Then I'll do a potato.
**[04:49] ser**
Oh, thanks!
**[04:51] tan**
I'll peel this.
**[04:54] tan**
Huh? Come on.
**[04:56] ser**
So about the meat...
**[04:58] ser**
When do we put that it?
**[05:00] tan**
Not quite sure about the timing on the meat.
**[05:05] tan**
Are you okay? I don't want you to—
**[05:10] tan**
I'm so sorry!
**[05:11] tan**
Sorry, I'll go wash that!
**[05:14] ser**
That's not a problem at all!
**[05:15] ser**
It's fine.
**[05:17] ser**
So cute, Minami dropped the potato.
**[05:21] tan**
Like Sura-tan?
**[05:22] ser**
Sura-tan!
**[05:24] wak**
Oh, like that?
**[05:25] hon**
You just do the surface
like this, and then this.
**[05:28] ser**
We're making everything round here.
**[05:31] tan**
I like that. Round is cute!
**[05:34] ser**
Just go round, huh?
**[05:36] wom**
I think it's the same.
**[05:38] tan**
Round, whatever the cost!
**[05:43] tan**
Round?
**[05:45] ser**
I don't think you can chop
that into circles...
**[05:46] ser**
How about half it, and half it again?
**[05:49] tan**
I'll cut it in half first.
**[05:51] ser**
I guess we'll go that way.
**[05:54] ser**
Yeah, and then...
**[05:56] tan**
I don't know what to do next!
**[06:00] ser**
No, you're fine Minami, you do it!
**[06:01] ser**
Do it the way you like!
**[06:03] tan**
What should I do...
**[06:04] wak**
Our curry's looking really good.
**[06:06] hon**
Why don't I put in some tomatoes?
**[06:07] wak**
Yes, please do.
**[06:08] hon**
Putting in the tomatoes.
**[06:10] wak**
That's...
**[06:10] hon**
We'll let these cook together now.
**[06:12] hon**
And now the broccoli.
**[06:13] wak**
That looks good!
**[06:14] hon**
Which of these should we put in?
**[06:16] wak**
You want me to pick?
**[06:17] hon**
Yeah.
**[06:18] wak**
Then this guy.
**[06:19] hon**
Okay. Have a nice trip!
**[06:21] ser**
Put it on medium heat.

This guy's big, but he'll go too.

We're done! Yay!
**[06:35] wak**
I think we should've discussed what kind of
curry we were going for before we started.
**[06:40] hon**
Probably!
**[06:41] wak**
We made too many snap decisions.
**[06:42] hon**
It was a lot of fun, though.
**[06:43] wak**
I think we had two completely
different ideas.
**[06:46] hon**
True.
**[06:47] hon**
Sorry about that!
**[06:47] wak**
We should have talked over about our visions.
**[06:47] hon**
We should have talked more.
**[06:50] hon**
I'm sorry.

It does look good, though.

Nice!
**[07:07] tan**
Yeah!
**[07:10] tan**
The water is in.
**[07:12] ser**
Now the roux is in!
**[07:15] tan**
Let's try it.
**[07:19] wom**
The broccoli...
**[07:22] ser**
So how is it?
**[07:25] tan**
Oh, it's good! It's not too spicy!
**[07:28] ser**
It is? Does it need more roux?
**[07:30] tan**
Should we add more?
**[07:31] ser**
Is it enough?
**[07:32] tan**
We could put some more in, but
I'm already happy with it.
**[07:34] tan**
Just a little... I'm going
to try a little more.
**[07:45] ser**
Minami is examining the taste a little more.
**[07:50] tan**
Yeah, this is enough.
**[07:52] ser**
It's enough.
**[07:52] tan**
It's enough.
**[07:53] ser**
It's enough.
**[07:58] tan**
I'm going to do a taste
test of the curry, again.
**[08:02] tan**
This is a taste test.
**[08:15] ser**
And? How is it?
**[08:18] tan**
It's so good!
**[08:19] ser**
You're adorable.
**[08:21] ser**
You know, maybe we should go for some eggs.

Sounds good!
**[08:27] ser**
Genius! Soft-boiled eggs!
**[08:31] tan**
Tada!
**[08:33] ser**
And with that.
**[08:34] tan**
With that.

Then let's begin
the final deliberation.
**[00:14] oos**
Today, I will be overseeing the process.
**[00:17] oos**
My name is Oosawa and I'm with
Tajimi City's planning committee.
**[00:20] oos**
I look forward to working with you.
**[00:29] (Flashback) Him**
Fifteen good pieces will get
special awards from the judges.
**[00:34] (Flashback) Him**
Then, there will be two prizes awarded
each for artistic excellence,
**[00:36] (Flashback) Him**
technical excellence, and
conceptual excellence.
**[00:38] (Flashback) Mik**
Three awards given to overall best works,
and then one best in show award!
**[00:43] (Flashback) Tou**
Sometimes the best in show award is
chosen from the 15 special awards.
**[00:50] Hime**
That's only 25 people all together.
**[00:53] Mik**
Hime-chan!
**[00:55] Mik**
What are you doing? I'm starving!
**[00:59] Hime**
Sorry! I'm coming now!

**[01:09] Tou**
You're really well-prepared,
bringing this picnic blanket.
**[01:13] Mik**
Right? We've been given this opportunity,
we just have to have a 'lil picnic!
**[01:16] Mik**
The sky is blue! It's great to be alive!
**[01:19] Hime**
*Rolled omelet.*
**[01:21] Hime**
* If one of these has rolled omelet*
* in it, I'm going to win a prize!*
**[01:26] Hime**
*Rolled omelet, rolled omelet!*
**[01:31] Hime**
*They don't have any!*
**[01:32] Hime**
*I'm done for! The rolled omelet hates me!*
**[01:35] mam**
Hey, everyone!
**[01:37] mam**
Are you done eating?
**[01:39] Him**
No, we just started eating. Good timing!
**[01:43] mam**
Ta-da! I got an rolled omelet sandwich
from that shop that always has a huge line!
**[01:48] Tou**
Did you go all the way there to get one?
**[01:51] Mik**
So *that's* what took you this long.
**[01:53] mam**
Of course not.
**[01:53] Hime**
*I should have bet on her!*
**[01:55] mam**
I had to go to Onada for
some school business,
**[01:56] Him**
* No, no. These prayers are*
* just superstition anyway!*
**[01:57] mam**
so I picked it up on the way home.

Huh?
**[02:04] Him**
Oh... um...
**[02:07] Him**
Let's eat...
**[02:10] oos**
Number 127 is called
"Everybody gather 'round."
**[02:17] Man**
That's quite skillful for a high schooler.
**[02:21] Wom**
I like the fun world view it conveys.
**[02:23] Man**
Very cute.
**[02:26] Man2**
"You've got to love
childishness," literally.
**[02:29] Man2**
I like that while it seems playful,
**[02:30] Man2**
no corners were cut with the small details.
**[02:34] oos**
Number 128 is called
"Center of the dining table."
**[02:39] koi**
Very good! This is truly good.
**[02:43] Man3**
The brushwork is very delicate,
**[02:45] Man3**
and you can already sense a
high level of proficiency.
**[02:48] Man**
The materials and the glaze
are also selected perfectly.

Number 129.
**[03:10] oos**
It's "It's a cushion."
**[03:13] Man**
This one is funny.
**[03:15] koi**
Ah, yes. This is one of those
things we'd never think of.
**[03:21] Wom**
Yes, and even if we did,
we wouldn't actually make it.
**[03:25] Wom2**
If you really want to make something
to sit on with ceramics,
**[03:28] Wom2**
you wouldn't do it like this.
**[03:30] Man**
This one didn't have a marker.
**[03:33] oos**
Yes, this year a few items without
markers made it to the final round.
**[03:39] Man**
But the artist really challenged themself
with the crystalline glaze.
**[03:42] Man**
I also like the weaving trick.
**[03:45] oos**
Anyone else? If not...
**[03:47] kus**
This color.
**[03:49] oos**
Is there something more?
**[03:51] kus**
No, nothing.
**[03:53] Sac**
What is it, Kusano-kun?
**[03:55] kus**
Just something personal.
**[03:58] Sac**
If there is something on your mind,
you should say it now.
**[04:01] Sac**
Especially if it has something
to do with the appraisal.
**[04:04] kus**
I'm sorry.
**[04:06] kus**
It's been a while since a piece
has made me feel this way.
**[04:10] kus**
When I first saw it...
**[04:12] kus**
I felt...
**[04:25] oos**
And now, we will begin the awards ceremony
**[04:29] oos**
for the 41st Mino Ware Contest.
**[04:32] oos**
We'll begin with the honorable
mentions in the student category.
**[04:38] Hime**
* Our names weren't amongst the fifteen*

* this would be when it does.*

She still hasn't told me or her

Isn't that right?

Hey, that's not fair!

There, there.

Can you really sit on that?

Yes! I tried it, and then
we all tested it out.

Now I kind of want to try sitting on it.

That they really wanted to sit on it.
**[11:16] Hime**
Right this way.
**[11:20] Hime**
Huh?
**[11:31] Dad**
I'm sorry! I'm so, so sorry!
**[11:40] Dad**
But as soon as I saw it,
**[11:43] Dad**
I had this overwhelming urge to sit on it.

Before I knew it, I was already sitting.

I did it.
**[12:47] Him**
I did it.
**[12:54] Him**
Mom...
**[12:57] Him**
I did it.
**[13:24] Hime**
*Even though it took a while,*
**[13:25] Hime**
* I feel like my real pottery*
* journey has finally begun.*
**[13:30] Hime**
* I wonder what kind of pieces*
* I will create in this town.*
**[13:41] Hime**
* Will there be new encounters*
* and discoveries?*
**[13:48] Hime**
* I feel like there will be all*
* sorts of things waiting for me.*
**[13:57] kus**
So she's your daughter, huh?
**[14:11] Him**
*Oh, right.*
**[14:14] Him**
* When we started serving the baked curry*
* on the plates that Mom left behind,*
**[14:18] Him**
*it stirred up quite the buzz.*
**[14:25] Him**
* Next time I fire something,*
* maybe I'll make a mug, too!*

**[01:04] all**
Yay!
**[01:06] hon**
I'm so excited.
**[01:08] wak**
Yeah, me too!
**[01:09] hon**
My heart's pounding.
**[01:09] wak**
Where should I start?
**[01:11] ser**
Time to eat!
**[01:13] wom**
It's so nice to eat from your own plate!
**[01:17] ser**
This tastes cute!
**[01:18] tan**
It tastes cute?
**[01:20] ser**
Yes, a cute taste.
**[01:26] ser**
So yummy!
**[01:33] hom**
It's so good!
**[01:35] wak**
The broccoli is so fluffy!
**[01:36] hon**
So good!
**[01:39] ser**
So delicious!
**[01:40] ser**
Isn't this so good?
**[01:42] ser**
Isn't it though?
**[01:44] wak**
This is amazing. It was just the roux.
**[01:47] hon**
We didn't use any salt.
**[01:48] wak**
Yeah, no salt.
**[01:49] wom**
If the ingredients are good,
it's like you don't need any.
**[01:53] hon**
There's so much umami.
**[01:55] wom**
Yeah, it's good.
**[01:57] ser**
What about dessert?
**[01:57] tan**
This is a side dish to go along. Side dish!
***SIGN*** Vegetable cheese stir fry we
made along with the curry
***SIGN*** Vegetable cheese stir-fry
**[02:04] ser**
Amazing!
**[02:05] ser**
This was so random but it's good.
**[02:07] tan**
Yay!
**[02:08] ser**
This basil cheese?
***SIGN*** This was only seasoned with basil cheese made in Tajimi
**[02:10] ser**
We should all buy some as gifts.
**[02:14] tan**
This is good!
**[02:15] ser**
Isn't it super tasty?
**[02:16] ser**
We only put that in there, but
the flavors are all there.
***SIGN*** Curry vegetable stir fry
**[02:19] wom**
This is good!
**[02:21] wom**
Yum!
***SIGN*** Curry vegetable stir fry
**[02:22] hon**
This is tasty!
**[02:23] wak**
We only used curry powder for this.
**[02:25] ser**
So good!
**[02:25] wak**
Damn good!
**[02:27] tan**
Oh yeah, let's use our mugs.
**[02:31] wom**
I love this pairing.
**[02:34] ser**
So nice and warm.
**[02:35] wom**
Everything, including the
drinks, is from Tajimi.
**[02:37] ser**
This is incredible. Gifu All-Stars.
**[02:40] wom**
Yeah!
**[02:41] wom**
That's true.
**[02:41] wom**
Good point.
**[02:42] wak**
I'm so happy.
**[02:44] tan**
These plates. I still can't
believe we made them ourselves.
**[02:48] tan**
Honestly speaking, you know?
Because they're so nice?
**[02:50] wom**
Yeah.
**[02:51] wom**
I know!
**[02:52] tan**
I'm happy that we could
make something like this.
**[02:54] ser**
So now...
**[02:56] wak**
This is so good!
**[02:57] ser**
...can we maybe try some of your curry?
**[02:59] wak**
Oh good point.
**[03:00] hon**
Should we swap?
**[03:03] ser**
This is a curry for grown ups.
**[03:06] tan**
Yeah, it's not fooling around.
**[03:07] wak**
This meat is so tender!
**[03:09] wak**
This is good!
**[03:10] ser**
Isn't the beef delicious?
**[03:11] hon**
Dangerously so!
**[03:12] hon**
The beef is dangerous.
**[03:15] hon**
Wait, this was a cook-off right?
**[03:17] ser**
Who is going to be the judge?
**[03:20] tan**
Well.
**[03:21] ser**
How do we settle this?
**[03:22] wak**
There is no way to pick a winner.
**[03:25] hon**
You're right.
**[03:27] wak**
Both get the gold medal.
***SIGN*** Curry cook-off Both get the gold medal
**[03:29] wak**
That's it.
**[03:30] tan**
This is good!
**[03:33] ser**
But this is the last episode, right?
**[03:35] wom**
Yeah.
**[03:36] hon**
It went by so fast.
**[03:36] wom**
Oh, right.
**[03:37] wak**
Really fast.
**[03:38] all**
Yeah.
**[03:39] hon**
What left the biggest impression on you?
**[03:41] ser**
Oh, hard to say what was the biggest...
**[03:43] ser**
But the feeling when the mugs
came out was pretty amazing.
**[03:47] wom**
For me, too!
***SIGN*** Tajimi Memories Making our first mugs
**[03:48] ser**
I was really impressed; I got
a glimpse of my own potential.
**[03:51] wom**
Yeah.
**[03:52] ser**
No, I mean this seems so
complicated, you know?
**[03:55] ser**
And then I managed to make
something this cute.
**[03:58] wak**
For me it was my failures
at the pottery wheel.
**[04:01] wak**
That was the moment when
I realized to what degree
**[04:04] wak**
Touko-senpai and the others
are zen when they do that.
**[04:06] wom**
Yeah, that's true.
**[04:08] wom**
It goes so quick.
**[04:08] wak**
When your heart wavers, the clay follows.
**[04:10] wak**
Right.
**[04:12] tan**
For me it was seeing Himeno's house.
**[04:15] tan**
Or the distance to Nao-chan's beauty salon.
***SIGN*** Tajimi Memories Visiting the house Himeno's is based on
**[04:18] wak**
Yeah, that was spot on!
**[04:20] tan**
Yeah, at the beginning of episode 1!
**[04:21] tan**
That was amazing, that it
was exactly like that.
**[04:25] tan**
That's what I thought.
**[04:26] wak**
You know when we interviewed
the high school girls?
**[04:28] wom**
Ah yeah, Yakumo in real life!
**[04:31] wak**
You could see that infinite energy
high schoolers have, you know?
***SIGN*** Tajimi Memories Infiltrating the club room of Yakumo in real life
**[04:36] wak**
I really felt that.
**[04:37] tan**
Since Touko-san makes really amazing things,
**[04:40] tan**
you think that can't be real,
but then it actually is!
**[04:43] tan**
The Yakumo in real life
kids were so amazing!
**[04:46] hon**
I know!
**[04:48] tan**
Also everybody in Tajimi is so nice.
**[04:51] ser**
We really got to experience
Tajimi's warmth. You know?
**[04:56] wom**
Yeah!
**[04:57] wom**
I want to see the gohei mochi grandma again.
**[04:59] wom**
Grandma!
**[05:00] wom**
I feel you!
**[05:00] wom**
She was so cute.
**[05:02] hon**
The scenery too, since I'm from Fukushima,
**[05:05] hon**
and Fukushima is located in a basin, too.
**[05:07] wak**
Oh yeah, there's a resemblance.
**[05:09] hon**
Exactly, so part of me was
overlaying that, too.
**[05:14] hon**
So this might be my second home town.
**[05:16] all**
Wow!
**[05:16] hon**
Maybe that sounds presumptuous, but...
**[05:20] wak**
I already knew Tajimi, since I'm from Gifu.
**[05:24] wak**
But the only image I had was
that Tajimi's a hot place.
**[05:28] wak**
When I actually came here though,
all the people were so warm,
**[05:32] wak**
and I discovered so many great
things besides it being hot here.
**[05:36] wak**
So I think that's mine.
**[05:38] wom**
Yeah.
**[05:39] ser**
You know it's often hard
to actually experience
**[05:43] ser**
the things our characters
do, in real life, but...
**[05:45] wom**
Totally.
**[05:47] ser**
But this time, we came to
Tajimi and the fact that
**[05:50] ser**
I was able to experience the
same things Mika did was
**[05:52] ser**
actually amazing.
**[05:54] tan**
We got to experience all
these things in reality,
**[05:58] tan**
tasty, amazing, wonderful things, and
then we went in for the recording,
**[06:02] tan**
so I think that shines through in the show.
**[06:06] tan**
I think that's all thanks to Tajimi.
**[06:09] tan**
Tajimi is the bomb.
**[06:11] ser**
The bomb!
**[06:12] tan**
Great town!
***SIGN*** (Cue card)
***SIGN*** (Cue card) You have forgotten something.
***SIGN*** (Cue card) You have forgotten something. Do you know what it is?
**[06:17] tan**
Oh, wait!
**[06:19] wak**
I know! I got it!
**[06:21] tan**
We made one more thing in the beginning!
**[06:24] hon**
That's right!
**[06:25] tan**
The tiles!
**[06:26] hon**
Yeah!
**[06:26] tan**
The accessories with tiles.
**[06:29] tan**
We made those.
**[06:30] tan**
Wait, we get them now?!
**[06:31] hon**
This is amazing!
**[06:34] hon**
Wait, that's like getting a ring.
**[06:36] tan**
Is someone going to kneel?
***SIGN*** Tajimi Memories Making accessories with tiles
**[06:38] tan**
These are the ones we made.
**[06:42] wom**
Yeah I remember that.
**[06:44] wom**
Should we each look at ours first?
**[06:46] tan**
Yeah, let's do that.
**[06:47] all**
And three!
**[06:49] tan**
Wow!
**[06:51] ser**
So cute!
**[06:54] hon**
That's super cute!
**[06:55] wak**
Cute!
**[06:55] tan**
Oh, wow!
**[06:57] tan**
Look at it!
**[06:58] ser**
These are great.
**[07:00] tan**
Are we all ready to show the group now?
**[07:02] ser**
Tada!
***SIGN*** Serizawa Yū's
**[07:03] wom**
So cute!
**[07:04] ser**
Baby blue and pink!
**[07:07] hon**
They suit you.
**[07:07] ser**
So cute, the colors are perfect, too!
**[07:11] ser**
I'm very satisfied.
**[07:12] wom**
Cute!
***SIGN*** Tanaka Minami's
**[07:13] wak**
You were working on it so delicately.
**[07:15] tan**
Yeah I was trying to make really fine lines.
**[07:18] tan**
The yellow and baby blue
turned out really nicely.
**[07:21] tan**
I'm totally happy.
**[07:22] tan**
I'll wear them.
**[07:23] wak**
Here are mine.
***SIGN*** Wakai Yūki's
**[07:24] wak**
I used orange and green.
**[07:27] wak**
I love these colors, so
I made earrings with them.
**[07:30] wak**
So cute.
**[07:31] wom**
Cute!
**[07:32] wak**
Those colors are so fancy.
***SIGN*** Honizumi Rina's
**[07:34] hon**
Green, red, and I think the rim is purple.
**[07:37] wom**
Those are very you, Hon-chan.
**[07:38] hon**
Yeah, they came... out really nicely.
**[07:41] tan**
Adorable.
**[07:42] hon**
All the things we made are in front of us.
**[07:44] wak**
Oh yeah!
**[07:45] ser**
True!
**[07:46] tan**
So much has happened, and
last time we made plates,
**[07:52] tan**
but don't you feel like doing pottery again?
**[07:54] all**
I do!
**[07:54] all**
Yeah!
**[07:55] all**
Totally!
**[07:56] hon**
If I had to say, then there's
some things I could improve.
**[07:58] ser**
Exactly.
**[07:58] hon**
I really really like this one,
but there's this feeling of
**[08:01] hon**
if I could do this or that
a little differently...
**[08:03] hon**
That's why I want to give it another try.
**[08:05] wak**
What are we making next?
**[08:07] tan**
We made mugs, curry plates...
**[08:10] sre**
Remember when Touko-san was
trying to make that huge plate?
**[08:13] wom**
That was impressive!
**[08:14] wom**
The centrifugal force will
make it harder and harder.
**[08:17] hon**
That's really amazing.
**[08:18] tan**
She was hyper-focused
when she was making it.
**[08:20] wak**
Mika makes these little, animal
like things, you know?
**[08:24] wak**
When you hear that that's okay, that really
opens up all sorts of possibilities.
**[08:27] wom**
Right!
**[08:28] wak**
It doesn't have to be just
plates and the like.
**[08:30] tan**
That's true.
**[08:31] ser**
There's still a lot out there.
**[08:32] tan**
There is.
**[08:33] tan**
There really is.
**[08:35] wom**
I want to go back...
**[08:37] nar**
* Thanks to Tajimi, our hearts are*
* full of wonderful memories.*
**[08:42] nar**
*The four of us gained a new hometown!*
**[08:46] tan**
Then let's work hard so that we
can go back to Tajimi again!
**[08:50] alL**
Yeah!
**[08:51] tan**
Thank you for the food!
**[08:53] tan**
Thank you for the food!
**[08:55] tan**
Bye-bye!
