[00:00] CLERK
    Welcome.
[00:03] CLERK
    You didn't need your
    rice balls warmed up, did you?
[00:06] KOUYA
    Oh, um, no. Thanks again.
[00:13] KOUYA
    Haruka-kun?
[00:16] HARUKA
    It's been a while.
[00:24] KOUYA
    Haruka-kun... How did you find me?
[00:29] HARUKA
    I found a business card at your place.
[00:31] KOUYA
    A business card?
[00:33] KOUYA
    Wait, how'd you get into my apartment?
[00:35] HARUKA
    The door was unlocked.
[00:37] KOUYA
    What? Seriously?
[00:38] HARUKA
    In any case, the address on
    Kikuchi-san's business card led me here.
[00:44] HARUKA
    But since it was getting dark,
    I planned to visit tomorrow.
[00:48] HARUKA
    And while looking for a place to stay,
     I saw you entering the supermarket.
[00:54] HARUKA
    I didn't think we'd meet like this,
     so I was pretty surprised.
[01:00] KOUYA
    Yup. I was surprised, too.
[01:03] HARUKA
    Kota and his dad are worried since
    you haven't responded to their messages.
[01:08] KOUYA
    A-Ah, yeah. I'm sorry.
[01:11] KOUYA
    I just wanted to cool off a bit alone.
[01:14] HARUKA
    Oh, I wasn't criticizing you or anything.
[01:18] HARUKA
    Sorry.
[01:19] KOUYA
    You have nothing to apologize for...
[01:22] KOUYA
    Sorry.
[01:26] HARUKA
    And you?
[01:29] HARUKA
    Why'd you come here?
[01:33] KOUYA
    There's... something I have to do.
[01:37] HARUKA
    How long will it take?
[01:39] KOUYA
    Huh?
[01:40] HARUKA
    This thing you have to do.
    Is it gonna be a while still?
[01:44] KOUYA
    Well, uh, even I don't know
     how long it'll take.
[01:50] KOUYA
    I'm not sure what the schedule looks like.
[01:54] HARUKA
    I see.
[01:56] KOUYA
    Yeah, sorry. I know you came all the
    way out here, but you should go home.
[02:03] HARUKA
    Okay, got it.
[02:05] HARUKA
    I'll stay with you.
[02:06] KOUYA
    What?
[02:07] HARUKA
    I'll stay with you until you finish

[02:24] KOUYA
    Don't be like that.
[02:26] KOUYA
    We'll probably be waiting all day today, too.
[02:29] HARUKA
    Waiting?
[02:31] KOUYA
    Since you're here, I want you

[04:40] HARUKA
    Yeah, I guess.
[04:41] KOUYA
    You are who you are because
    you're always thinking about driving.
[04:50] HARUKA
    Are you saying you don't think about it?
[04:56] KOUYA
    About what?
[04:57] HARUKA
    Taking pictures.
[05:01] KOUYA
    What?
[05:03] HARUKA
    I realized I might not actually know
     anything about you after all.
[05:11] KOUYA
    What are you saying?
[05:13] HARUKA
    I think I let myself get carried away.
[05:18] HARUKA
    You couldn't take pictures of people,
    but after taking that picture of me,
[05:22] HARUKA
    you could photograph people again.
[05:27] HARUKA
    So I thought you'd be okay
    if you just had me, but then...
[05:35] HARUKA
    you up and left.
[05:37] KOUYA
    That's because...
[05:39] HARUKA
    So I decided I would ask you.
[05:45] HARUKA
    Are you really okay right now?
[05:49] HARUKA
    Do you think about taking pictures?

    Can you still take pictures of people?

[06:15] KOUYA
    Okay. I'll try waiting a little longer.
[06:19] KOUYA
    No, I expected the family to say that. Yeah.
[06:26] KOUYA
    Thanks. I appreciate it. Bye.
[06:29] HARUKA
    Was it about what you have to do?
[06:31] KOUYA
    Oh, um, yeah. That was Kikuchi-kun.
    I met him a long time ago.
[06:37] HARUKA
    Is it gonna be a while still?
[06:39] KOUYA
    Yeah.
[06:42] HARUKA
    In that case...
[06:44] HARUKA
    Wanna go drive go-karts?
[06:48] KOUYA
    Quit it, Haruka-kun.
[06:50] KOUYA
    Stop trying to goad me.
    You can just go on ahead.
[06:54] KOUYA
    Dangerous driving! Yellow flag!
[06:56] HARUKA
    Sorry, but there aren't any officials here.
[07:03] HARUKA
    Hey, wanna race?
[07:05] KOUYA
    Against you?
[07:07] HARUKA
    We'll bet on it. Loser has to
    do one thing for the winner.
[07:12] KOUYA
    That's not something a racer should say.
[07:16] KOUYA
    I'm bound to lose, anyway.
[07:19] HARUKA
    You don't know that.
[07:21] KOUYA
    Oh, I do.
[07:23] HARUKA
    I'll give you a three-lap handicap.
[07:25] KOUYA
    What? Really?
[07:29] KOUYA
    I can totally beat you
    with a three-lap head start.
[07:39] KOUYA
    I lost.
[07:41] HARUKA
    Okay. Now you have to do whatever I say.
[07:45] KOUYA
    Fine, fine. Bring it on.
[07:51] HARUKA
    Take a picture of me.
[07:54] HARUKA
    You can take pictures of people now, right?
[08:00] HARUKA
    I see. Fine.
[08:03] HARUKA
    Then I'll choose something else.
[08:05] KOUYA
    What?
[08:08] HARUKA
    Tell me the real reason you stopped
    being able to take pictures of people.
[08:14] HARUKA
    It wasn't because of the criticism.
[08:18] HARUKA
    Am I right?
[08:24] HARUKA
    When I found the business card at your place,
    I flicked through your photos, too.
[08:30] HARUKA
    Your portfolios.
    The folders organized by date.
[08:37] HARUKA
    After the day of the earthquake...
[08:40] HARUKA
    After that photo of the girl,
    the pictures of people stopped.
[08:46] HARUKA
    But you didn't publish that
    photo or get criticized for it
[08:50] HARUKA
    until two months after the earthquake.
[08:53] HARUKA
    So the criticism wasn't the real reason
    you couldn't photograph people anymore.
[09:02] HARUKA
    What really happened?
[09:05] HARUKA
    Tell me.
[09:07] HARUKA
    I don't want to hurt you
    by thinking I know you anymore.
[09:26] HARUKA
    Tell me.
[09:28] HARUKA
    Why couldn't you take
    pictures of people anymore?

[09:45] SIGN
    This episode contains depictions of an earthquake disaster. Viewer discretion is advised.
[09:47] SAEKO
    And go to parties, too, huh?
[09:49] KOUYA
    I wasn't in a position to say no.
[09:52] SAEKO
    Well, it's been a while
    since you were in Tohoku.
[09:56] SAEKO
    How's Kikuchi-kun?
[09:57] KOUYA
    He's great.
[10:00] KOUYA
    He's become totally dependable now as
    part of the local young adults' association.
[10:04] KOUYA
    Sae-chan, thanks for all your support.
    Sorry for making so much work for you.
[10:10] SAEKO
    Bring me back something good.
[10:12] KOUYA
    You can count on it.
[10:30] SHOUZOU
    How you doing, cameraman?
[10:34] KOUYA
    Shouzou-san.
[10:37] KOUYA
    Like I told you before,
    I'm a photographer, not a cameraman.
[10:43] KOUYA
    I take photographs, not videos.
[10:48] KOUYA
    Not that it matters either way.
[10:51] SHOUZOU
    So, how are things?
[10:53] KOUYA
    Fine, thankfully.
    I'm allowed to go where I want.
[10:57] KOUYA
    I heard from Kikuchi-kun that
    you put in a good word for me.
[11:04] KOUYA
    This is a nice town.
[11:06] SHOUZOU
    Oh, yeah?
[11:07] KOUYA
    Yeah. Everyone's so lively.
[11:11] SHOUZOU
    Used to be.
[11:13] KOUYA
    What?
[11:14] SHOUZOU
    All the youngsters are moving
     to Sendai and Tokyo.
[11:19] SHOUZOU
    With only the elderly left behind,
    the city starts to get old, too.
[11:23] SHOUZOU
    It's the fate of all rural towns.
[11:27] SHOUZOU
    It'll happen here eventually, too.
[11:33] KOUYA
    Would you like to see the photos I took?
[11:35] SHOUZOU
    Huh?
[11:36] KOUYA
    Press this button,
    and it'll display the next photo.
[11:41] SHOUZOU
    Huh.
[11:42] KOUYA
    Not bad, right?
[11:44] SHOUZOU
    Singing your own praises?
[11:46] KOUYA
    I had good subjects.
[11:49] SHOUZOU
    Satoshi is always complaining
    that everything's too much work.
[11:56] SHOUZOU
    I'm surprised Aki-chan
    doesn't get discouraged.
[11:59] SHOUZOU
    She's still our idol.
[12:03] SHOUZOU
    Makoto's real motivated,
    considering how young he is.
[12:06] SHOUZOU
    He worked the hardest
    to prepare for the party.
[12:12] SHOUZOU
    Nice photos.
[12:15] KOUYA
    Thank you.
[12:21] SHOUZOU
    Momo, get over here.
[12:23] SHOUZOU
    Have him take your picture.
[12:32] SHOUZOU
    No, with this.
[12:36] SHOUZOU
    Get a nice picture with
    me and my granddaughter.
[12:44] SHOUZOU
    No, not like that.
[12:48] SHOUZOU
    Get in the picture, photographer.
[12:57] KOUYA
    Okay.
[13:26] KIKUCHI
    No!
[13:27] KOUYA
    But there are people down there!
[13:29] KIKUCHI
    If you go down there now,
    you'll be in danger, too!
[13:50] KOUYA
    No...
[13:57] KOUYA
    Run.
[14:00] KOUYA
    Run.
[14:02] KOUYA
    Run!
[14:44] KOUYA
    After that, I couldn't take
    pictures of people anymore.
[14:54] KOUYA
    A total of 340 people dead,
    and 5,592 homes destroyed.
[15:00] KOUYA
    The events of that one hour changed
    the fate of this city and its people.
[15:09] KOUYA
    Ten years later, 79 people are still missing.
[15:17] KOUYA
    That disaster still hasn't ended.
[15:22] KOUYA
    Those eyes...
[15:25] KOUYA
    That child's eyes begging for help
     are seared into my memory.
[15:35] KOUYA
    Every time I look through
    the viewfinder, I see them.
[15:42] KOUYA
    They keep asking me...
[15:46] KOUYA
    "Why didn't you save me?"
[16:00] KOUYA
    Transportation services were shut down,
     and I couldn't get back to Tokyo,
[16:04] KOUYA
    so I stayed to help rebuild the town.
[16:09] KOUYA
    In spare moments, I took
    photos of the disaster area.
[16:14] KOUYA
    Strangely, I can take
    pictures of landscapes.
[16:18] KOUYA
    I can take pictures of large crowds, too.
[16:22] KOUYA
    But when I try to take pictures of
    individual people, my finger shakes.
[16:32] KOUYA
    Then I returned to Tokyo and
    published all the photos I'd taken.

[16:44] KOUYA
    And, well, people had a lot to say about it.
[16:47] HARUKA
    But that wasn't your fault at all.
[16:52] KOUYA
    "Saigon Execution."
[16:56] KOUYA
    It's a photo that was taken in
     Saigon during the war there.
[16:59] KOUYA
    It captured the moment a police officer
    shot a prisoner dead in the street.
[17:06] KOUYA
    It was taken by Eddie Adams.
[17:09] KOUYA
    The photo inspired anti-war
    movements around the world,
[17:15] KOUYA
    and won the Pulitzer that year.
[17:19] KOUYA
    But Adams rejected the award.
[17:23] KOUYA
    He said later...
[17:28] KOUYA
    that he regretted publishing that photo.
[17:33] HARUKA
    Why?
[17:37] KOUYA
    Let's get some sleep.
[17:39] KOUYA
    It's already pretty late.
[18:01] KOUYA
    Good morning.
[18:03] KOUYA
    Shall we go?
[18:07] HARUKA
    A hospital? Is someone unwell?
[18:10] KOUYA
    Shouzou-san. He doesn't have long left.
[18:15] KOUYA
    Sometime after the earthquake, he fell ill.
[18:19] KOUYA
    He was in and out of the hospital.
[18:23] KOUYA
    I visited him each time,
    but his family put a stop to it,
[18:28] KOUYA
    and they haven't let me see him in a while...
[18:31] KOUYA
    because of that photo.
[18:35] HARUKA
    Is that why you came here?
     That's what you have to do?
[18:40] KOUYA
    Yeah.
[18:41] HARUKA
    I didn't get to ask yesterday,
    but why'd you decide to publish that photo?
[18:49] KOUYA
    Because I thought I should.
[18:54] KOUYA
    It's what Shouzou-san wanted, too.
[18:57] KOUYA
    He wanted future generations
    to know about this tragedy.
[19:01] HARUKA
    I see.
[19:03] KOUYA
    Or maybe that makes
    it sound nicer than it is.
[19:06] KOUYA
    I mean, it's true, but still.
[19:10] KOUYA
    The truth is, I guess I wanted to be saved.
[19:16] KOUYA
    I thought it might remove my curse.
[19:21] KOUYA
    But I think it just made it worse.
[19:24] HARUKA
    Do you regret it?
[19:27] KOUYA
    Returning to what I said yesterday,
    why did Eddie Adams regret taking that photo?
[19:34] KOUYA
    There's more to that prisoner who was shot
     despite putting up no resistance.
[19:39] KOUYA
    He'd killed a bunch of
    police officers and soldiers.
[19:45] KOUYA
    Of course, that doesn't make it okay
    to execute someone without a trial.
[19:49] KOUYA
    But knowing that changes
    your impression of the photo.
[19:55] KOUYA
    That's how photographs work.
    They only capture that one moment.
[20:01] KOUYA
    They don't tell the viewer what happened
     before or after I pressed the shutter.
[20:08] KOUYA
    From the moment I picked up a camera,
    I've always told myself that.
[20:14] KOUYA
    But...
[20:15] KOUYA
    Even if I only captured part of the truth,
[20:20] KOUYA
    that photo is a record of that girl's life.
[20:25] KOUYA
    My circumstances are irrelevant.
[20:32] KOUYA
    I'm glad it happened this way.
[20:46] KOUYA

[20:56] HARUKA
    He didn't abandon her!
[21:01] HARUKA
    Kouya hasn't abandoned her.
[21:03] HARUKA
    He hasn't cast aside anyone's life.

    Fine, thankfully.

    dragged into all of this.

    Not at all. I chose to publish that photo.

    You don't need to worry about it.
[21:50] SHOUZOU
    You still at it?
[21:54] KOUYA
    I'm managing.
