[01:42] Hiromu
    Masaki.
[01:44] Masaki
    Hiro-san, I'm such a failure.
[01:48] Hiromu
    What do you mean?
[01:50] Masaki
    I ran away again.
[01:53] Masaki
    Like I always do.
[01:55] Hiromu
    Masaki.
[01:58] Masaki
    Hiro-sa—
[02:00] Hiromu
    You did nothing wrong.
[02:03] Hiromu
    There's nothing more important
    than you keeping yourself safe.
[02:15] Masaki
    I wish... I could say the same thing.
[02:20] Masaki
    But I'm terrified out of my mind.
[02:24] Masaki
    And I hate that about me.
[02:28] Masaki
    I'm afraid of rejection.
[02:30] Masaki
    Rejection of myself... but more so,
    of everything I care about.
[02:36] Masaki
    I think, "If only I weren't the type I am..."
[02:39] Masaki
    But I'm also so sick of thinking that.
[02:43] Masaki
    That's why I ran away from here long ago.
[02:46] Masaki
    Still, I thought that being with you
    must have made me stronger.
[02:53] Masaki
    Why do I have to be so weak?
[02:59] Masaki
    I'm the only one failing to grow.
[03:03] Hiromu
    That's normal.
[03:07] Hiromu
    Everyone's afraid of being rejected
    by people they care about,
[03:10] Hiromu
    and of the things they
    care about being rejected.
[03:14] Hiromu
    I've felt that way, too.
[03:16] Hiromu
    But...
[03:18] Hiromu
    You're the one who told me it would be okay.
[03:21] Masaki
    It's not the same. You're not like me at all.
[03:26] Masaki
    I keep falling into the same patterns.
[03:29] Masaki
    I can't count how many times
    you've helped me through them.
[03:33] Masaki
    I feel absolutely pathetic.
[03:35] Masaki
    I have so much love in my life...
[03:39] Masaki
    I have you, Hikari and Hinata...
    but this never changes.
[03:45] Masaki
    After so many years, I'm still stumbling
    over the same things again and again.
[03:54] Hiromu
    You're being silly.
[04:00] Hiromu
    I know about all that already.
[04:03] Hiromu
    That's why I'm here with you.
[04:08] Hiromu
    That's why I chose to be with you, Masaki.
[04:11] Hiromu
    Every time you stumble, I'll take your hand,
    and recount it all with you...
[04:20] Hiromu
    How Hikari smiles when he's with you.
[04:24] Hiromu
    The look on Hinata's face
    as she sleeps in your arms.
[04:28] Hiromu
    And look on your face as you gaze at them.
[04:34] Hiromu
    I'll recount it all, until you
    remember and smile.
[04:38] Hiromu
    That's what building a life together is about.
[04:45] Hiromu
    I remember your face when you gaze at me.
[04:53] Hiromu
    He's such a warm person.
[04:59] Hiromu
    You cry way more when you're happy
    than when you're sad.
[05:05] Masaki
    The warmest I've ever known.
[05:07] Hiromu
    You don't have to force yourself to forget.
[05:10] Hiromu
    You don't have to throw it away.
[05:11] Hiromu
    I love the person you are now.
[05:16] Hiromu
    And the person you were for
    twenty years before I met you...
[05:19] Hiromu
    I love him, too.
[05:30] Masaki
    I'm so proud to be your mate.
[05:37] Masaki
    From the bottom of my heart.
[05:53] Yuki
    You think Masaki-san's okay?
[05:55] Matsuo
    He'll be fine. Hiromu said
    he'd handle it, remember?
[05:59] Yuki
    Yeah.
[06:00] Yuki
    I feel so helpless again.
[06:04] Yuki
    I got mad and barked at him,
[06:06] Yuki
    but that cousin of his just shot me down.
[06:09] Matsuo
    This's happened before, right?
[06:13] Yuki
    With Hiromu-san's dad?
[06:16] Matsuo
    You talked about how much
    you loved that family.
[06:20] Matsuo
    Knowing you feel that way is doing
    more than enough to help them.
[06:24] Matsuo
    You showed real guts today, too.
[06:27] Yuki
    I guess.
[06:30] Yuki
    Hey, Matsu-san.
[06:32] Yuki
    Caring about someone for real
    is actually kind of hard, isn't it?
[06:40] Matsuo
    If everyone were honest like you,
    the world would be a more peaceful place.
[06:44] Matsuo
    You little cutie pie!
[06:47] Yuki
    Sheesh...
[06:48] Yuki
    This is why people call you an old man.
[06:52] Matsuo
    I take it back.
[06:53] Matsuo
    There's such a thing as too honest!
[07:09] Masaki
    Morning!
[07:11] Masaki
    You two are up early.
[07:26] Masaki
    Sorry to make you wait.
[07:29] Kazuhiko
    Nah, sorry to call you out so early.
[07:32] Masaki
    It's okay.
[07:37] Masaki
    He insisted on coming along.
[07:39] Masaki
    I think he'll be good, though.
[07:42] Kazuhiko
    That's fine.
[07:43] Kazuhiko
    Hey, your eyes are kind of puffy.
[07:46] Kazuhiko
    Were you crying?
[07:49] Masaki
    You're in street clothes today.
[07:51] Masaki
    Day off from the inn?
[07:52] Kazuhiko
    Yeah, I've got a few days off.
[07:57] Kazuhiko
    I wanted to talk with you before I left.
[08:01] Kazuhiko
    The way your husband
    told me off stuck in my craw.
[08:06] Masaki
    I expressed myself badly last night
    and hurt you. I'm sorry.
[08:11] Masaki
    I knew I was being unfair about the letter.
[08:16] Masaki
    It just got under my skin
    to give it to you now.
[08:20] Masaki
    I was surprised.
[08:23] Masaki
    I figured you'd been all alone,
    like you were back then.
[08:29] Masaki
    So I'd say you could stay here,
[08:32] Masaki
    and you'd stay, and then...
[08:35] Masaki
    And then...
[08:39] Masaki
    H-Hikari!
[08:41] Hikari
    Ma-cha is Hi-kun and Hina-chan and Papa's!
[08:45] Hikari
    Can't have him!
[08:46] Hikari
    Can't have him ever!
[08:48] Kazuhiko
    I... I wasn't trying to take him.
[08:50] Hikari
    Were too!
[08:51] Hikari
    Tried to take him... can't have him!
[08:57] Masaki
    What's wrong, Hikari? Don't cry, now.
[09:02] Masaki
    I'm not going anywhere.
    I'll be with you forever, Hikari.
[09:12] Masaki
    Sorry, Kazu-kun.
[09:14] Masaki
    I think he's picking up on
    my nervous energy.
[09:17] Masaki
    He doesn't mean—
[09:17] Kazuhiko
    No, he's not wrong.
[09:20] Kazuhiko
    That's probably why he's been
    hostile to me from the start.
[09:25] Kazuhiko
    Right, kiddo?
[09:27] Kazuhiko
    What do you like best about Masaki?
[09:31] Hikari
    Um... um...
[09:35] Hikari
    Ma-cha's keeyoo!
[09:37] Hikari
    Keeyoo and smiley every day!
[09:41] Kazuhiko
    Really?
[09:43] Kazuhiko
    He's smiling every day, is he?
[09:46] Kazuhiko
    It was your husband's idea
    to bring the kid along, right?
[09:50] Masaki
    No, he actually tried to stop me.
[09:53] Kazuhiko
    So they're just similar, huh?
[09:56] Kazuhiko
    Feels like him yelling at me all over again.
[09:59] Kazuhiko
    I really didn't put much stock
    in that old verbal agreement.
[10:05] Masaki
    Right.
[10:06] Kazuhiko
    But something was going on...
    imprinting, pity, I don't really know...
[10:14] Kazuhiko
    And for a long, long time, I felt like it
    really was up to me to look after you.
[10:23] Kazuhiko
    You're happy now, right?
[10:30] Masaki
    Yes, very!
[10:34] Kazuhiko
    I see...
[10:36] (Flashback) Masaki
    Kazu-kun.
[10:39] (Flashback) Masaki
    Want to read with me?
[10:42] Kazuhiko
    He's always had that
    gentle smile, hasn't he?
[10:45] Hikari
    Ka-kun.
[10:47] Kazuhiko
    Ka-kun? Me?
[10:49] Hikari
    Bye-bye to Ka-kun?
[10:51] Masaki
    He's got the day off, so it's bye-bye, yes.
[10:55] Hikari
    Ka-kun, seeyoo 'gen.
[11:01] Kazuhiko
    See you again, huh?
[11:04] Kazuhiko
    Hard to stay too serious around you.
[11:12] Yuki
    They're back!
[11:19] Masaki
    Hiro-san. I'm home.
[11:23] Hiromu
    Welcome home.
[11:30] Masaki
    Hi-kun, you really want to carry all that?
[11:33] Masaki
    Make sure to watch your step.
[11:35] Hikari
    'Kay!
[11:38] Yuki
    It really is a beautiful place.
[11:41] Masaki
    Right?
[11:43] Matsuo
    Boy, I'm glad it all worked out.
[11:48] Masaki
    S-Sorry for all the trouble.
[11:50] Yuki
    He got some parting shots in, right?
[11:53] Matsuo
    "Your husband looks like
    an angry thug," maybe?
[11:56] Matsuo
    Brilliant!
[11:59] Hiromu
    It makes no sense.
    I listened quietly and everything.
[12:02] Hiromu
    That brat.
[12:03] Matsuo
    It's your face. Your annoyance
    always shines through.
[12:07] Hiromu
    Lay off.
[12:11] (Flashback) Kazuhiko
    Oh, and I was telling the truth when I said
    you didn't need that letter anymore.
[12:19] Masaki
    Oh, here we are.
[12:21] Masaki's Mom
    "I'll express my feelings here."
[12:25] Masaki
    We put the flowers here.
[12:28] Masaki's Mom
    "I don't know how many times
    I wished I could have been like him.
[12:33] Masaki's Mom
    If I'd understood him better, known him better,
    perhaps things could have been different."
[12:39] Yuki
    What do I do? I don't know the customs...
[12:42] Matsuo
    Just follow your heart.
[12:44] Yuki
    Bow and clap twice?
[12:46] Matsuo
    We're not at a shrine.
[12:48] Hiromu
    By the way, you two make
    any progress last night?
[12:52] Yuki
    Progress?
[12:53] Matsuo
    You shut the hell up!
[12:56] Masaki's Mom
    "I've forced so many things on him,
    believing it was for the best."
[13:00] Hikari
    Gwave?
[13:02] Masaki
    Yes, where your other grandma
    and her family are sleeping.
SIGN    Ogiwara Family
[13:06] Masaki's Mom
    "But now that Masaki's gone,
    I wish for only one thing."
[13:11] Hikari
    Gamma...
[13:12] Hikari
    She cold without a blankie?
[13:16] Yuki
    That's our Hikarin.
[13:17] Matsuo
    He always sees the bigger picture.
[13:21] Masaki's Mom
    "I hope he meets someone
    he can find comfort in.
[13:27] Masaki's Mom
    What a wonderful thing it is to
    have someone like that in your life...
[13:30] Masaki's Mom
    Just as when Masaki was with us,
[13:35] Masaki's Mom
    I pray that he ends up with someone
    by his side who will love him.
[13:41] Masaki's Mom
    I'm sure we caused him pain at times,
[13:44] Masaki's Mom
    but we truly did love him.
[13:48] Masaki's Mom
    I want him to live, as his name suggests,
    in an unpretentious, straightforward manner.
SIGN    Ogiwara Family
[13:53] Masaki's Mom
    Please, look after him."
[13:57] Hiromu
    Leave it all to me.
[13:59] Hiromu
    I will protect him.
[14:07] Hikari
    Ma-cha.
[14:09] Masaki
    Yes?
[14:11] Hikari
    Well... Hi-kun...
[14:15] Hikari
    Gonna marry you, Ma-cha!
[14:18] Yuki
    Sorry, Masaki-san.
[14:20] Yuki
    I was showing him the picture book
    I got at my cousin's wedding...
[14:24] Masaki
    So that's it.
[14:26] Hikari
    Ma-cha's gonna marry Hi-kun!
[14:30] Masaki
    I'd love that!
[14:33] Hiromu
    So the day's come at last.
[14:36] Masaki
    Hiro-san?
[14:38] Hiromu
    Listen up, Hi.
[14:39] Hiromu
    Ma's married to Papa, so he can't marry you!
[14:44] Hiromu
    Too bad, eh?
[14:47] Hikari
    No! Hi-kun wanna marry Ma-cha and Papa, too!
[14:52] Hiromu
    His reaction was so predictable, I'm crying!
[14:55] Masaki
    Hiro-san...
[14:57] Yuki
    Why not be this one, Hikarin? The minister.
[15:00] Hikari
    Mi...
[15:02] Yuki
    The person who presides over
    Hiromu-san and Masaki-san's wedding.
[15:05] Yuki
    They're very important.
[15:07] Yuki
    Sort of.
[15:08] Hiromu/Masaki
    Sort of...
[15:11] Hikari
    Hi-kun will do dat!
[15:13] Hiromu/Masaki/Yuki
    He's okay with it?
[15:20] Yuki
    Um...
[15:21] Yuki
    Say something like, "Do you swear
    to love each other without fail?"
[15:27] Hikari
    You swear?
[15:32] Masaki/Hiromu
    I do.
[15:34] Masaki
    Of course, you and Hinata, too!
[15:45] Masaki
    All right, everyone.
[15:47] Masaki
    Our members are assembled once more.
[15:50] Masaki
    It's time to discuss strategy.
[15:51] Matsuo
    For what now?
[15:53] Yuki
    Feels like deja vu.
[15:55] Matsuo
    So where's Masaki off to today?
[15:57] Hiromu
    Took Hinata to the hospital.
    He'll be back soon.
[16:01] Yuki
    Hikarin doesn't cry as much when
    Masaki-san leaves anymore, huh?
[16:04] Yuki
    He's really grown up.
[16:05] Hiromu
    Depends on the timing a bit, too.
[16:08] Matsuo
    So what's your aim today?
[16:12] Hiromu
    Well...
[16:13] Hikari
    Machu! Yu-ku! Look!
[16:17] Hikari
    Hi-kun got dis!
SIGN    Hee hee hee
[16:19] All
    So cute!
[16:21] All
    Deja vu!
[16:23] Hiromu
    That coin purse Dad sent him
    arrived this morning.
[16:26] Hiromu
    He seems to have taken quite a shine to it.
[16:29] Hiromu
    And now...
[16:30] Yuki/Matsuo
    And now...?
[16:32] Hiromu
    He's insisting on running
    an errand by himself.
[16:35] Yuki/Matsuo
    Ah...
[16:37] Matsuo
    He still seems a little young
    for that, though.
[16:39] Hiromu
    Yeah. But...
[16:42] Hiromu
    I just can't resist those eyes!
[16:45] Matsuo
    You have got no willpower when
    it comes to your family, man.
[16:49] Yuki
    That's why you told us
    to bring disguise stuff?
[16:52] Matsuo
    You actually brought something?
SIGN    Convenience Store
SIGN    Supermarket
[16:54] Yuki
    But you need to cross a pretty big street
[16:57] Yuki
    to get to the convenience store
    and the supermarket, right?
[17:00] Hiromu
    Yep, and he's definitely too young for that.
[17:03] Hiromu
    So I had an idea.

    Operation: Hikari's Errand, Debut Arc!
[17:12] Hiromu
    All right, Hikari.
[17:14] Hiromu
    I'm putting the letter we wrote
    to Grandpa right here.
[17:18] Hiromu
    Walk slowly. No running!
[17:20] Hiromu
    If you run, the letter will fly out!
[17:24] Hiromu
    You know the way, right?
    Because you always go with Ma.
[17:27] Hiromu
    Put it in the mouth of the red robot
    on the way to the park.
[17:30] Hikari
    Got it!
[17:32] Hiromu
    And that will send it to Grandpa.
[17:35] Hiromu
    Give it your best, okay?
[17:36] Hiromu
    If you can't reach the robot's mouth,
[17:39] Hiromu
    just ask a nice man
    with a mustache and glasses!
[17:42] Hikari
    'Kay!
[17:43] Matsuo
    The "disguise" came in handy after all, huh?
[17:46] Hiromu
    Great. Get to it!
[17:50] Hikari
    Okay!
[17:52] Hikari
    Bye-bye!
[17:54] Hiromu/Matsuo
    Have a good trip!
[17:58] Hikari
    Bye-bye!
[18:05] Hikari
    Bye-bye!
[18:06] Matsuo
    He's going nowhere.
[18:09] Matsuo
    Still, a letter was a great idea.
[18:12] Matsuo
    It's a pretty straightforward trip.
[18:15] Hiromu
    And just about the right distance.
[18:17] Hiromu
    Still, we should follow him.
    I really do worry...
[18:19] Hikari
    Papa!
[18:23] Hiromu/Matsuo
    He's back already!
[18:26] Tomoko
    Hello there, Fujiyoshi-san!
[18:28] Hiromu
    Yuki-kun's mother. Hello.
[18:31] Tomoko
    Matsuo-kun? Staying the night again?
[18:35] Tomoko
    I have all these delicious amanatsu oranges.
[18:37] Tomoko
    I walked out to come share them,
    and found Hikari-chan right there!
[18:41] Tomoko
    I was so surprised to see him all alone!
[18:44] Tomoko
    Is Masaki-kun out at the moment?
[18:46] Hiromu
    Well, yes...
[18:48] Hikari
    Um... Hi-kun's...
[18:51] Hikari
    Hi-kun's...
[18:52] Hikari
    Hi-kun's got an ewwand!
[18:56] Hiromu
    He's trying to run an errand.
[19:02] Hikari
    Scary doggie! Scary!
[19:04] Matsuo
    He's back.
[19:07] Hikari
    Papa! Fowwer!
[19:09] Matsuo
    Back again?
[19:12] Yuki
    He didn't show up at the mailbox,
    so I came back.
[19:15] Yuki
    Is he okay?
[19:16] Matsuo
    Still wearing that?
[19:19] Hikari
    Yu-ku's got a moospash!
[19:22] Hiromu
    And you're already busted!
[19:24] Hiromu
    Still, Hikari...
[19:26] Hiromu
    He's made no progress.
SIGN    Break Time
[19:29] Hiromu
    How about we eat a snack?
[19:31] Hikari
    Nope!
[19:34] Hikari
    Hi-kun's good to go!
[19:36] Hikari
    Hi-kun's going!
[19:44] Yuki
    Rain?
[19:45] Matsuo
    Looks pretty bad!
[19:46] Hiromu
    Hikari! Get in, quick!
[19:52] Hiromu
    What a surprise, huh?
[19:54] Hiromu
    It was so sunny before.
[19:57] Yuki
    Forecast called for clear skies all day.
[20:00] Matsuo
    That's the rainy season for you.
[20:03] Hiromu
    Let's run the errand tomorrow, Hi.
[20:06] Hikari
    Letter got all wet...
[20:17] Hiromu
    Still good to go, Hikari?
[20:20] Hiromu
    I've got another favor to ask you.
[20:23] Hiromu
    It's a very, very important errand.
[20:26] Hiromu
    Can you handle it?
[20:35] Hikari
    Go unner da roof.
[20:37] Hikari
    Stay unner da roof.
[20:39] Hikari
    Promise!
[20:47] Masaki
    Thank you!

[21:01] Masaki
    You brought an umbrella?
[21:03] Masaki
    The rain came down so
    suddenly, I was shocked!
[21:06] Masaki
    Papa was right.
[21:08] Masaki
    You really did run an errand
    all by yourself!
[21:10] Masaki
    You weren't scared?
[21:12] Hikari
    Nope!
[21:12] Masaki
    You're my hero, Hikari!
[21:16] Masaki
    Thank you!
[21:20] Yuki
    Hikarin looks so happy!
[21:21] Matsuo
    It wasn't quite how we expected,
    but I'd call it a success.
[21:26] Hiromu
    Huge success!
[21:28] Hiromu
    The recording, too!
[21:32] Hiromu
    I guess that frog purse will have to
    wait a little longer to shine.

    That second part was so mean!
[22:03] Koji
    But...
