[00:08] Gran
    Hime-chan?
[00:09] Him
    Yes?
[00:11] Gran
    I bought some dorayaki from Umezono.
    Let's have them with some with tea—
[00:15] Gran
    What are you up to?
[00:18] Him
    I was cleaning up and I found
    these old New Years' cards.
[00:21] Him
    It just reminded me of the past.
[00:23] Gran
    You don't say.
[00:27] Gran
    Oh, I'm surprised this
    one ever made it here.
SIGN    Hime-chan
[00:33] Him
    Right?
[00:35] Him
    It's from Nao-chan.
[00:37] ---
    Oh, my...
[00:38] Him
    And she didn't even write
    "Happy New Year" on the card.
[00:41] Gran
    Huh? What is this?
SIGN    Thank you for yesterday. -Naruse Family, Naoko
[00:43] Gran
    It says, "Thank you for yesterday."
[00:46] Him
    What is this?
[00:48] Him
    I can't remember.
[00:50] Him
    I guess I'll ask her about it
     tomorrow, in school.
[00:53] Gran
    Who could that be?
[00:55] Him
    I'll get it.
[00:57] Him
    Coming!
[00:59] Him
    Huh?
[01:04] Him
    Nao-chan? What's going on?
[01:06] Nao
    Humble apologies for this
    sudden intrusion,
[01:09] Nao
    but could I please spend the night?
[01:12] Nao
    I got into a fight with my mother,
[01:14] Nao
    so I stormed out and left a note
    saying I'd stay at Hime-chan's...
[01:18] Him
    Why don't you come in first?
[01:20] Him
    You came at the right time.
SIGN    My Paradise
[02:56] Nao
    Oh, the New Year's card
    I gave you in second grade?
[02:59] Nao
    You were back home during that time,
[03:01] Nao
    so I came over and put it
    in the mailbox myself.
[03:03] Him
    So what does this "Thank
    you for yesterday'"mean?
[03:06] Nao
    Oh, that.
[03:09] Nao
    Thank you so much for that!
[03:11] Him
    So you remember?
[03:13] Nao
    I'll remember it until the day I die.
[03:15] Him
    What is it? What did I do for you?
[03:19] Nao
    Well, that...
[03:20] Him
    Uh-huh?
[03:21] Nao
    ...is a secret.
[03:23] Him
    Stop teasing me!
[03:25] Nao
    But explaining it would be so embarrassing.
[03:28] Him
    Come on. Don't say that. Please?
[03:30] Him
    I'm letting you stay the night.
[03:34] Nao
    Fine, then. Find me a Chinese bell flower
[03:36] Nao
    around Kokei Park, and I'll tell you.
[03:39] Him
    Really?
[03:41] Nao
    You can sometimes find them
    growing along this street.
[03:44] Him
    A Chinese bell flower, huh? Got it!
[03:48] Him
    It's chilly.
[03:50] Him
    I'm not finding any, Nao-chan!
[03:53] Him
    I don't think there will be any.
[03:55] Nao
    Good! It's better for me
    if you don't find one.
[03:58] Him
    I'll find one!
[03:59] Him
    Now I'm committed!
[04:01] Him
    So these flowers are purple or
    white star-shaped flowers, right?
[04:06] Nao
    That's it.
[04:07] Him
    Bell flower... Bell flower...
[04:10] Him
    Now that I think about it,
[04:12] Him
    those flowers are only around until
    September. I'll never find one!
[04:15] Nao
    Don't worry! You can still find one.
[04:18] Nao
    In fact, you already passed
    a spot that has them.
[04:21] Him
    Really?
SIGN    Gohei Mochi
[04:23] Nao
    There are more further up, too,
[04:25] Nao
    but based on how you're currently doing,
     you won't find those, either.
[04:28] Him
    Oh, where are they?
[04:33] Him
    Huh?
[04:34] Him
    Wait, are you talking about these?
[04:36] Nao
    Aw shucks, you found it.
[04:39] Him
    Come on! You didn't mean the real thing.
[04:42] Nao
    You figured it out, bravo!
[04:44] Nao
    Then I guess I have no choice.
    I have to tell you the truth.
[04:47] Him
    Yay!
[04:48] Nao
    Incidentally, they have these
    in colored versions too.
[04:51] Nao
    And a bunch of different ones, too
SIGN    Fire Hydrant
SIGN    Water Supply Air Valve
[04:53] Nao
    You should try to find
    them if you're bored.
[04:55] Him
    Okay.
[05:06] Nao
    Since I was in kindergarten, a lot
    of people said I was a weird kid.
[05:12] Him
    Oh, I see.
[05:13] Nao
    My dad was always buying
    Showa mangas and animes,
[05:16] Nao
    CDs, LDs, VHDs, DVDs, and Blu-Rays.
[05:21] Him
    I didn't get a lot of that, but okay.
[05:23] Nao
    Then he was always buying these soft vinyl
    monster toys of all shapes and sizes.
[05:26] Nao
    My mom finally stopped him
    when he tried to buy a
[05:29] Nao
    one-meter-long space ship.
[05:33] Nao
    Since I was also into that
    stuff in kindergarten,
[05:37] Nao
    I didn't really have anything
    to talk about with the other kids.
[05:41] Him
    I can see that.
[05:42] Nao
    And there I was, a second-grader
    all alone on New Years Eve,
[05:46] Nao
    when you came and talked to me.
[05:49] Him
    Is that what happened?
[05:50] Nao
    It is!
[05:53] Nao
    And you've been my angel ever since.
[05:56] Him
    Huh? So, what did I say?
[06:08] Him
    The wind is really cold!
[06:11] Nao
    You didn't say anything
    particularly unusual.
[06:14] Nao
    You looked at the pottery piece I made
    during the hands-on pottery class
[06:16] Nao
    in the fall of second grade and you said,
[06:18] Nao
    "Wow, what is this? This is really cool!"
[06:20] Him
    Oh!
[06:21] Nao
    Do you remember?
[06:23] Him
    Wait, was it that cup with the
    spiral cut out on the side?
[06:27] Nao
    That's it!
[06:29] Nao
    I'm so happy you remembered!
[06:34] Nao
    I was about to throw it out
    since we were cleaning the house.
[06:38] Him
    But why?
[06:41] Nao
    First, I wanted to make
    a coffee cup for my mom.
[06:44] Nao
    She really likes coffee.
[06:49] (Flashback) Girl
    I'm going to make a kitty!
[06:51] (Flashback) girl
    What about you?
[06:53] (Flashback) Girl2
    I was thinking I'd make a...
[06:55] Nao
    I'd made it too big, and I was
    wondering what to do with it.
[07:02] Nao
    Then I remember this yarn bowl I'd seen in
    one of my mother's handicraft magazines.
[07:07] Him
    What's a yarn bowl?
[07:10] Nao
    A container where you can put a
    yarn ball in and feed the yarn
[07:14] Nao
    through the cutout so the
    ball doesn't roll all over.
[07:18] Him
    So that's what that was!
[07:22] Nao
    Once it was fired though, everybody
    started saying stuff...
[07:24] (Flashback) Boy
    You can't drink from that!
[07:26] (Flashback) Girl
    That's no good.
[07:28] (Flashback) Kid
    Why'd you make it like that?
[07:30] (Flashback) Kid
    That's so useless.
[07:34] Nao
    I should've just told them that
    it was a bowl for holding yarn,
[07:39] Nao
    but I didn't really have the courage.
[07:40] Nao
    And hearing all that made
    me think it was useless, too.
[07:46] Nao
    I took it home,
     but I didn't show it to anyone...
[07:50] Nao
    Then on our house-cleaning day I snuck out,
[07:54] Nao
    trying to secretly hide it in the trash...
[08:08] (Flashback) Him
    What's that?
[08:12] (Flashback) Him
    That's so cool!
[08:13] (Flashback) Nao
    Hime-chan...
[08:14] (Flashback) Him
    And that color is really cute.
[08:16] (Flashback) Him
    This curly part here reminds
    me of a cat's tail.
[08:21] (Flashback) Him
    Did you make this?
[08:23] (Flashback) Nao
    Yeah.
[08:24] (Flashback) Him
    Wow, you're really good!
[08:27] (Flashback) Nao
    I don't know...
[08:28] (Flashback) Him
    You really are!
[08:32] Nao
    You were the only one who didn't reject
    what I made, and even praised it.
[08:37] Him
    I see.
[08:39] Nao
    That's right.
[08:46] Him
    That's so pretty!
[08:48] Nao
    It is.
[08:50] Nao
    Hime-chan, you know?
[08:52] Him
    Huh?
[08:54] Nao
    You're like Mino ware.
[08:56] Him
    Sorry, but I don't really get that analogy.
[08:59] Nao
    There's this open-mindedness to Mino ware
[09:03] Nao
    that accepts you,
     no matter who you are.
[09:07] Him
    Really?
[09:09] Nao
    Really.
[09:10] Him
    I see.
[09:11] Nao
    Exactly.
[09:16] Nao
    It's a slumber party!
[09:18] Him
    Should I turn off the light?
[09:19] Nao
    It's up to you.
[09:23] Him
    So let's hear it.
[09:25] Him
    Let's hear your romantic secrets.
[09:27] Nao
    There are none of those.
[09:29] Nao
    Why, do you have some?
[09:30] Him
    Not right now.
[09:32] Nao
    I figured.
[09:34] Him
    Hey, what is that supposed to mean?
[09:37] Him
    Looks like you get the tickle punishment!
[09:41] Nao
    I give up! I give up! I give up!
[09:49] Nao
    Was it in kindergarten that we first met?
[09:53] Him
    It must have been one of the times when
    I came back here for Obon or New Years.
[09:58] Nao
    I mean, we knew each other by sight
    since we lived next to each other,
[10:01] Nao
    but since I was so shy, I was
    probably hard to approach.
[10:06] Him
    I might have thought that
    you had an odd feel.
[10:09] Nao
    But you still came and talked to me.
[10:12] Him
    I think that's because you were some
    kind of wonderland or paradise.
[10:18] Nao
    Huh? I've never heard that before.
[10:21] Him
    That must have been back in first grade.
[10:26] (Flashback) Him
    I'm going to go buy juice, grandma!
[10:30] (Flashback) Gran
    Watch out for traffic!
[10:32] (Flashback) Him
    I will! Be back soon!
[10:38] Him
    I was home for Obon,
[10:40] Him
    and you came out dressed like an explorer.
[10:43] Him
    I was wondering what that was about.
[10:45] Nao
    That might have happened...
[10:47] Nao
    My somewhat cringey past...
[10:50] Him
    But I was interested, so I followed you.
[10:54] Him
    Quietly.
[10:55] Nao
    Really?
[11:20] Him
    And then, you into the yard
    of an abandoned house.
[11:24] Nao
    The kind of thing good boys and girls
    aren't supposed to do.
[11:28] Him
    You attached ears and eyebrows
    to a broken down car.
[11:37] Him
    You turned it into a cream-colored koala.
[11:40] Nao
    I don't remember that at all.
[11:43] Nao
    Probably because I was always
    doing stuff like that.
[11:52] Him
    Whatever comes out of you is always
    something I completely lack.
[11:57] Him
    I like that feeling.
[12:00] Nao
    That's... good.
[12:03] Nao
    Well, you're the only person with
    whom I can really let my guard down.
[12:06] Him
    Really?
[12:08] Nao
    Well, you're the only one
    who is honestly surprised
[12:12] Nao
    or bewildered when I do my weird stuff.
[12:17] Him
    So...
[12:18] Nao
    Yeah?
[12:19] Him
    That yarn bowl?
[12:21] Him
    Did you end up giving it to your mother?
[12:24] Nao
    Yes.
[12:25] Him
    And was she happy?
[12:27] Nao
    I don't remember...
[12:29] Nao
    But she does still use it now and then.
[12:32] Him
    Really?
[12:35] Him
    Then I'm glad.
[12:37] Nao
    Huh?
[12:38] Him
    That I was able to meet you, and be honest.
[12:46] Nao
    I see... You're right.
