**[00:13] Nao**
Needle ice!
**[00:15] Hime**
That explains why we're cold.
**[00:23] Hime**
*It's December in the city of Tajimi.*
**[00:26] Hime**
*The weather's quite wintry now.*
**[00:29] Hime**
*We're surrounded by mountains,*
**[00:30] Hime**
* which means that the summers get hot*
* and the winters are piercingly cold.*
**[00:39] Hime**
* That's why we use hot water*
* for the pottery wheel.*
**[00:44] Hime**
* It balances out with the*
* coolness of the clay,*
**[00:46] Hime**
*creating a uniquely comfortable feeling.*
**[01:08] Nao**
A never-ending loop of coning up and down.
**[01:12] Mik**
I was wondering about that, too.
**[01:13] Mik**
Like, how long are you going to do that?!
**[01:16] Hime**
I totally lost track of time.
**[01:17] Tou**
That happens sometimes.
**[01:20] Mik**
Looks like the "Runruu" isn't coming.
**[01:26] Hime**
Runruu...
**[01:31] Hime**
It's from Ximena-san.
**[01:33] Mik**
What does it say?
**[01:34] ---**
Let's see...
**[01:36] Hime**
Oh, nice!
**[01:38] Mik**
But what does it say?
**[01:39] Hime**
She said, "I finally finished my piece.
You should come and see!"
***SIGN*** Found It!
**[03:19] Hime**
* And that's how all of us ended up*
* at Ximena-san's studio on Tuesday,*
**[03:24] Hime**
*when the Kokeigama dojo is closed.*
**[03:27] Mena**
Thanks for coming!
**[03:29] Mena**
Come on in.
**[03:31] Hime**
So your piece is under this?
**[03:34] Mena**
¡Sí!
**[03:35] Mena**
Here I go!
**[03:37] Mena**
¡Uno, dos, tres!
**[03:41] All**
Wow!
**[03:44] Hime**
These are amazing!
They're so colorful and powerful!
**[03:48] Mik**
These will make mealtime fun!
**[03:50] Hime**
Can we pick them up?
**[03:52] Mena**
Go ahead.
**[03:55] Hime**
It feels so nice in my hands.
**[03:58] Nao**
So many suns everywhere.
**[04:00] Mena**
I wanted to express how
anything put into these dishes
**[04:04] Mena**
is a blessing from the sun.
**[04:06] Tou**
You used the sun as your motif!
**[04:09] Mena**
That's right!
**[04:10] Mena**
I love the sun and I love heat.
**[04:13] Mena**
It's the fuente, the source of vitality.
**[04:17] Hime**
What's that small set over there?
**[04:19] Mik**
Right? That is so cute.
**[04:22] Mena**
This is for making offerings.
**[04:26] Mena**
When I came to Japan, I learned about
the nice custom of putting food out
**[04:31] Mena**
for deceased family members.
**[04:33] Mena**
But it seemed so sad to just have
one bowl on the family altar,
**[04:36] Mena**
with no side dishes at all.
**[04:38] Mena**
I thought it would be more fun if they had
all the same plates as everyone else.
**[04:40] Hime**
I see.
**[04:42] Mika**
So that's why you have the
same set, just smaller.
**[04:46] Mika**
That's so nice!
**[04:50] Hime**
It is.
**[04:53] Hime**
It's really nice!
**[04:58] Hime**
Every time I take an offering
to our family altar,
**[05:04] Hime**
I also feel that my mother
might be kind of lonely.
**[05:07] Mena**
Right, right?
**[05:08] Mena**
I made these thinking that
I wanted to eat together
**[05:11] Mena**
with my beloved abuelita, my grandmother.
**[05:15] Tou**
Just looking at these
miniature dishes is fun,
**[05:18] Tou**
and I think it's a wonderful concept.
**[05:22] Hime**
You're going to sell these in
the showroom next door, right?
**[05:26] Mena**
Oh, no way.
**[05:28] Mena**
They said it will be at least another
two or three years before I can do that.
**[05:32] Hime**
Oh I see... That's too bad.
**[05:35] Mena**
But I'll try my best to get there faster.
**[05:38] Mena**
Keep an eye on me!
**[05:42] Hime**
But these are so cute...
**[06:05] Nao**
Hime-chan, do you still have some time?
**[06:08] Hime**
Huh?
***SIGN*** Café Tokishirou
**[06:11] Toki**
I've been wondering about something.
**[06:15] Toki**
How is she doing? Is she
able to spread her wings?
**[06:18] Teach**
She seems to be doing fine.
**[06:20] Teach**
It seems that lately she's only
coning her clay up and down
**[06:23] Teach**
and can't seem to really move forward.
**[06:24] Grand**
Oh, my.
**[06:27] Toki**
I wonder if I turned her into someone
who can't really let out her true self...
**[06:33] Grand**
What?
**[06:34] Kusa**
What's that supposed to mean?
**[06:37] Toki**
I asked a lot of her at a time
when she wanted to play the most,
**[06:41] Toki**
and now holding back has
become normal for her...
**[06:49] (Flashback) Toki**
Limited-time-only sale...
**[06:50] (Flashback) Toki**
Limited-time-only sale...
**[06:52] (Flashback) Toki**
Himeno?
**[06:53] (Flashback) Hime**
Hey, dad!
**[06:56] (Flashback) Toki**
Did you...
**[06:58] (Flashback) Hime**
I did!
**[07:00] (Flashback) Hime**
The last half-off chicken is mine!
**[07:02] (Flashback) Toki**
Nice!
**[07:05] Toki**
Even back in middle school.
**[07:07] Toki**
You would think she'd want
to be out with friends,
**[07:09] Toki**
but instead, she was always
helping out around the house.
**[07:11] Toki**
I think that's also why she
joined the home economics club.
**[07:16] Grand**
You think so?
**[07:19] Toki**
I'm glad she's turned out
so considerate, but...
**[07:23] Toki**
I think that might be the reason that she
can't make a piece to put on that shelf.
**[07:28] Grand**
You're overthinking it!
**[07:29] Grand**
That girl is so strong.
**[07:32] Kusa**
Hey, you should be having this conversation
at a parent-teacher conference.
**[07:36] Toki**
You are completely right! I am sorry.
**[07:39] Toki**
What would you like to drink next?
**[07:42] Teach**
I'll take a highball, on the strong side.
**[07:46] Hime**
Wow, it's so bright!
**[07:54] Hime**
The lights are so pretty!
**[07:56] Nao**
And even prettier during
cherry blossom season!
**[07:59] Hime**
Really? Then I'm looking forward
to next year's spring.
**[08:06] Nao**
So here I go.
**[08:09] Nao**
This might sound impertinent, but
I think you should make a mug next.
**[08:15] Hime**
Huh?
**[08:17] Nao**
I don't think you've realized it,
**[08:20] Nao**
but the only thing you
haven't made yet is a mug.
**[08:25] Hime**
* Somewhere in my heart, I had thought*
* that if I made the same item as my mom,*
**[08:30] Hime**
*I could never compete with her...*
**[08:32] Hime**
* Even though there's no reason*
* to think of it like that.*
**[08:36] Nao**
I was always thinking that those were
something really special to you.
**[08:41] HIme**
Yeah.
**[08:42] Nao**
But I think you could make one now.
**[08:45] Nao**
One made by Hime-chan, according to
Hime-chan, a Hime-chan colored mu-choo!
**[08:51] Hime**
Oh geez, Nao-chan, you're too cute!
**[08:57] Hime**
But you're right.
**[09:02] Hime**
I feel like I could make one now.
**[09:05] Hime**
Thank you, Nao-chan.
**[09:06] Nao**
I didn't do anything.
**[09:23] Hime**
I'm home—
**[09:24] Teach**
Welcome back.
**[09:26] Kusa**
Heya.
**[09:27] Hime**
Oh, hello!
**[09:29] Kusa**
It's been a while.
**[09:30] Hime**
Grandma, I'll change and
then I can take your place.
**[09:33] Grand**
Really? Well, thank you.
**[09:38] Hime**
Wow, it's really a party in here.
**[09:40] Teach**
I mean, this is my third one!
**[09:43] Toki**
We were talking about that time when
your mother made that monument.
**[09:47] Hime**
Really?
**[09:49] Kusa**
The first time you saw that monument,
you wrote a poem about it.
**[09:53] Hime**
A poem?
**[09:54] Teach**
What are you talking about?
**[09:56] Toki**
Oh, yeah! I remember that!
You were in the literature club.
**[10:00] Hime**
Oh, you were in the literature club!
**[10:02] Teach**
No, we're done!
**[10:03] Teach**
This topic is done!
**[10:05] Hime**
So what kind of poem was it?
**[10:06] Teach**
I said, it's over!
**[10:08] Toki**
Why, though?
**[10:09] Toki**
I liked it.
**[10:11] Toki**
"Wings born in the wind,"
**[10:13] Toki**
"I have become an angel."
**[10:16] Teach**
Senpai, stop right there, or I'll
never set foot in this store again.
**[10:20] Toki**
I'm sorry, I'm sorry!
**[10:21] Hime**
Is this the "cringey past"
you mentioned before?
**[10:32] Teach**
I don't really know...
**[10:35] Teach**
Looking back now, it seems like
I was just hyped up late at night
**[10:39] Teach**
and completely made light of literature...
**[10:45] Teach**
It's embarrassing because all I did was
naïvely write down my unfiltered emotions.
**[10:49] Kusa**
That happens a lot with teenagers.
**[10:52] Kusa**
But it's impressive that you got over
that and became a Japanese teacher.
**[10:57] Teach**
This!
**[10:58] Teach**
You never know which way
someone's going to go.
**[11:01] Teach**
I never even thought about becoming a
teacher until the second year of high school.
**[11:05] Hime**
So how did that even happen?
**[11:08] Teach**
Well, one of my friends who was working
on the school's literature anthology
**[11:11] Teach**
included one of my pieces without asking.
**[11:15] Teach**
I didn't feel confident
about that poem at all.
**[11:18] Teach**
It was just something where
I put my feelings down on the page
**[11:21] Teach**
without any decoration.
**[11:24] Teach**
But despite of that, it became
something special inside me.
**[11:31] Teach**
Our Japanese teacher read it and
she gave me some earnest praise.
**[11:36] Teach**
She said the way I considered my
subject was so gentle and good.
**[11:44] Teach**
That gave me some confidence and it inspired
me to not just write from the gut,
**[11:49] Teach**
but to actually study writing.
**[11:52] Teach**
That was what led me to become a teacher.
**[11:55] Teach**
My goal now is to try to
be like that teacher;
**[11:58] Teach**
I hope to find a small seed of greatness
and help my students foster that.
**[12:05] Kusa**
You should be grateful to that friend who exposed
**[12:07] Kusa**
your embarrassing poem to everybody.
**[12:09] Teach**
You had to put it that way!
**[12:11] Kusa**
But it's true, though.
**[12:13] Kusa**
Showing someone your stuff is important.
**[12:17] Kusa**
That will broaden your horizon.
**[12:20] Teach**
That's true.
**[12:21] Kusa**
Another oolong tea, please.
**[12:23] Toki**
Coming right up.
**[12:25] Hime**
That's it.
**[12:27] Hime**
That's exactly it.
**[12:29] Hime**
I'm starting to see it!
**[12:37] Hime**
I got it!
**[12:39] Hime**
I got it!
**[12:42] Hime**
I'm going now!
**[12:45] Hime**
Nao-chan!
**[12:46] Hime**
Nao-chan!
**[12:47] Nao**
Hime-chan?
**[12:48] Nao**
What's up?
**[12:48] Hime**
Morning! Let's run, Nao-chan!
**[12:51] Nao**
But why?
**[12:52] Hime**
Just because!
**[13:00] Hime**
* Suddenly a lot of things have*
* started moving inside me.*
**[13:05] Hime**
*Here I go!*
**[13:06] Hime**
*I'm going to make that mug!*

The bob-haired girl is being weird.
