[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!
