SIGN    Ishigama Pizza moon
SIGN    A place where you can enjoy real pizza made in a stone oven, and other Italian dishes
[01:15] nar
    Ovens and kilns are not just

[01:19] nar
    How will this meticulously
    baked pizza taste?
[01:25] wak
    There it is!
[01:26] guy
    Thank you for waiting.
[01:26] hon

    Is it?
[01:48] tan
    Super crispy!
[01:50] hon
    I'll try it now.
[01:52] tan
    But the cheese is stretchy.
[01:54] tan
    So good!
[01:57] wak
    It's really crispy.
[01:59] ser
    Crispy!
[02:00] ser
    So good. Their dough is so good.
[02:06] wak
    I could eat so many of these.
[02:08] wak
    There are so many times when
    I can't finish a pizza by myself.
[02:11] tan
    But I could totally finish
    one of these alone, too.
[02:17] ser
    I got some sauce there.
[02:20] ser
    It's still there, isn't it?
[02:21] wak
    Yup.
[02:22] ser
    I'll get that off.
[02:24] tan

[02:30] ser

[02:33] wak
    How does it smell?
[02:35] tan
    I want to live like this forever.
[02:39] ser
    That's quite a life style.
[02:41] hon
    It would smell too good.
[02:48] wak
    You look so happy.
[02:51] hon
    This is really good!
[02:53] wak
    They really nailed the baking on this.
[02:54] tan
    Genius, the person who
    invented this is a genius.
[02:57] wak
    It's also not like every place
    has a dessert pizza.
[03:02] wak
    This might be my first time.
[03:04] ser
    Me, too.
[03:06] tan
    After season one was done,
    my parents both came to Tajimi.
[03:11] tan
    And they actually visited many of
    the places featured in season one.
[03:16] wak
    That's cute.
[03:17] ser
    Cute, the both of them.
[03:18] tan
    So I really want them to come here.
[03:21] tan
    They do love food, especially Italian food.
[03:24] tan
    There are a lot of places that
    I really want them to check out.
SIGN    Tajimi City Ceramic Research Center Ishoken
SIGN    Making our very own glazes!
[03:29] nar
    Now that we're full, it's time
    to get into the world of glazes!
SIGN    Glaze mixing class room
[03:35] nar
    This is the glaze mixing class room.
[03:39] nar
    With so many powders, it looks
    like some sort of laboratory.
[03:43] nar
    But all of these are used for glazes!
[03:47] kik
    So do any of you knows what exactly glaze is?
SIGN    Ishoken
    Kikumoto Mei
[03:51] all
    Well, it's kind of used for... coloring?
[03:54] kik
    Yes, that's right.
SIGN    Ceramic Glaze
SIGN    Glassy layer that coats the surface of the
    pottery piece. Made by mixing clay and ash.
[03:56] nar
    Glaze is the glassy layer that
    coats the pottery piece.
[04:01] nar
    By mixing various clays and ashes,
    all sorts of colors can be produced.
SIGN    The same glaze can produce different colors based on
    the firing temperature or the piece's clay composition
[04:09] nar
    What's more, the same glaze can produce
    different expressions based on the piece's clay,
[04:12] nar
    or the firing temperature.
[04:15] nar
    Part of the beauty is that you
    don't quite know what you will get!
[04:18] nar
    On top of that, it even has practical uses.
[04:22] kik
    The glaze won't let water in, and it
    protects the piece from damage.
SIGN    Effects of the glaze
    Makes pieces impermeable to water
    and more damage resistant
[04:26] kik
    Those are some of the main uses.
[04:28] ser
    Is that something we can
    learn in such a short time?
[04:31] kik
    You will.
[04:32] all
    Really?
[04:33] all
    Yay!
[04:34] all
    Thank you so much!
[04:38] nar
    Well then, let's first
    learn how to mix glazes!
[04:45] kik
    First, put the powder into the
    mortar like I showed you.
[04:49] kik
    Then crush the big clumps.
[04:51] wak
    It's pretty crunchy.
SIGN    Grind down the glaze powder
[04:52] hon
    It's hard!
[04:53] ser
    This feels good!
[04:54] kik
    They do break apart in a satisfying way.
[04:58] tan
    Is it okay to knock around?
[04:59] kik
    It's fine.
[05:02] hon
    This reminds me of grinding sesame seeds.
[05:05] ser
    So fun.
[05:06] wak
    This step's really fun.
[05:08] nar
    Once the powder is finely ground,
[05:10] nar
    use pigments to get closer to
    the color you want and mix!
SIGN    To add color, add pigments and mix it some more
[05:15] tan
    Pink, I want pink.
[05:16] hon
    Yeah.
[05:17] tan
    Oh, so cute!
[05:18] kik
    Nice colors.
[05:21] nar
    Once the pigment is mixed in, we add water.
SIGN    Carefully add water, mix well, and it's ready
[05:25] nar
    If you add too much water, you won't
    get the intended color, so be careful.
[05:31] wak
    I cook by instinct.
[05:33] kik
    Okay!
[05:34] wak
    So I'll try to do that here, too.
[05:36] ser
    It got so sticky.
[05:40] wak
    Maybe that was too much?
[05:43] wak
    It's so watery... Oh, no.
[05:46] kik
    That looks good. I think you got it.
[05:48] wak
    Wait, in one go?
[05:48] kik
    Nice.
[05:50] wak
    I did it in one try. Yay.
[05:53] ser
    Is this right?
[05:54] kik
    Yes. Yes, that's good.
[05:56] nar
    How will the colors turn out?
[05:59] nar
    We put a so-called "test piece" in to try.
[06:05] tan
    Wow, that's so cute!
[06:06] hon
    But I am not quite seeing the color yet.
[06:11] kik
    You can also paint over
    it later, so it's fine.
[06:13] ser
    It'll be fine?
[06:14] ser
    I put a lot on.
[06:15] kik
    You really did.
[06:17] nar
    I wonder how the colors will
    look once they're fired.
[06:22] ser
    They've already finished firing?
[06:25] tan
    I'm so nervous.
[06:26] kik
    Pardon me.
[06:27] tan
    Wow!
[06:29] hon
    They looks amazing!
[06:29] tan
    They're super cute!
SIGN    Serizawa Yuu's glaze Wakai Yuuki's glaze
SIGN    Tanaka Minami's glaze Honizumi Rina's glaze
[06:31] hon
    The colors are great.
[06:33] hon
    So pretty!
[06:35] nar
    All of them came out so shiny!
[06:38] nar
    Who would have thought that this
    would turn out to be so vibrant!
[06:43] nar
    Glazes are really wondrous.
[06:45] wak
    They look so different after they're fired.
[06:48] tan
    Yeah, huh?
[06:48] Ser
    That's quite a difference.
[06:52] Ser
    This feels so nice.
[06:56] wak
    I thought it would be lighter.
[06:59] tan
    Now that we've seen these...
[07:02] tan
    Are you guys inspired to color your pieces?
[07:06] wak
    Hon-chan, what do you plan on doing?
[07:07] tan
    There's an infinite number of ways.
[07:09] hon
    Well, I do have three pieces.
[07:11] tan
    Oh, right. You made three things.
[07:14] hon
    So is it really hard to use multiple colors?
[07:17] kik
    Applying glazes with different
    colors is pretty difficult.
[07:23] ser
    But it is possible?
[07:24] tan
    So when that piece is fired, will the
    colors sort of blend where they meet?
[07:29] kik
    That's right. You will
    get a gradation there.
[07:31] all
    That sounds amazing!
[07:33] wak
    That would suit your pieces.
[07:35] hon
    You mean the gradation?
[07:37] hon
    That actually sounds good.
[07:38] wak
    Now I kind of want to try the thing
    where you need more technique...
[07:42] ser
    Even though you suffered so much last time?
[07:44] ser
    You remember how you suffered when
    you tried to do it yourself?
SIGN    Serizawa Yuu's piece Wakai Yuuki's piece
SIGN    Tanaka Minami's piece Honizumi Rina's piece
[07:48] nar
    What colors should we use for our pieces?
[07:52] nar
    We all try to picture what we want
    while picking our glazes.
[07:55] tan
    Tough, tough, tough.
[07:58] guy
    We have other powdered ones
    here that you can use as well.
[08:04] wak
    We can use the powdered ones as well?
[08:05] wak
    These are not dissolved in water yet.
[08:08] hon
    Oh, that's what we did earlier.
[08:10] guy
    So you can add water when
    you want to use it.
[08:18] tan
    It's so hard to choose.
[08:21] guy
    And there are more up here as well.
[08:26] tan
    I can't choose!
[08:27] ser
    What should I do...
[08:29] tan
    I'll use this!
[08:31] tan
    I've picked mine!
[08:33] wak
    This is cute, so textured.
[08:34] wak
    I like this texture.
[08:36] wak
    I've picked mine!
[08:39] nar
    It's finally time to meet
    our bisque-fired pieces!
SIGN    Next episode
    How did the bisque firing go?
[08:50] hon
    Wait, that's so cute!
[08:51] hon
    Incredible!
[08:52] nar
    And then, it's time to
    battle with the glaze!
[08:54] tan
    This is hard.
[08:57] hon
    So heavy! What is this?
