[01:31] Buchio
    I've never gone this way before!
[01:34] Wagen
    Really? How about the ocean?
[01:36] Buchio
    I have seen that a few times.
[01:39] Buchio
    It still surprises me
    every time. It's so big.
[01:43] Wagen
    Beautiful, too.
[01:45] Wagen
    Oh...
[01:46] Wagen
    There's an umibozu.
[01:49] Buchio
    Wow!
[01:57] Buchio
    Thank you for inviting me out on this drive.
[02:00] Wagen
    Don't mention it.
[02:01] Wagen
    We'll say it was to commemorate
    both of us getting our licenses.
[02:06] Wagen
    By the way...
[02:08] Wagen
    You and I... are friends now, right?
[02:11] Buchio
    Huh?
[02:12] Buchio
    Yes. We're friends.
[02:15] Wagen
    So now that we're friends,
    why don't we speak more casually?
[02:19] Buchio
    Huh?!
[02:21] Buchio
    But I even speak like this to my family.
[02:24] Buchio
    I don't know if I can change it...
[02:27] Buchio
    But it's not that I want
    to keep you at a distance!
[02:31] Wagen
    So it's just a habit, huh?
[02:33] Wagen
    In that case, I'll just tone down
    the formality myself.
[02:37] Buchio
    Let's do that, please?
[02:39] Wagen
    So, anything else you want to eat?
[02:42] Buchio
    Well, let's see...
[02:44] Buchio
    Oh, I've never had gohei
    mochi before. I'll have that.
[02:48] Wagen
    I think I'll get ramen.
[02:50] Wagen
    I love tonkotsu!
[02:59] Buchio
    I've never walked on a sandy beach before!
[03:02] Wagen
    You're not cold?
[03:03] Buchio
    I'm just fine!
[03:05] Buchio
    Oh, that umibozu is so far away now.
[03:10] Wagen
    They say when a deitarabocchi that's spent
    the summer traveling all around Japan
[03:13] Wagen
    returns to the sea,
    it's then called an umibozu.
[03:18] Buchio
    The weather forecaster
    on TV said the same thing.
[03:22] Wagen
    When you see one like this,
[03:24] Wagen
    do you ever wonder,
    "Can that really be a product of the weather?"
[03:31] Buchio
    To me, it looks like it's playing.
[03:35] Wagen
    Me, too.
[03:41] Wagen
    It makes me start to think about
    where the soul really dwells.
[03:48] Buchio
    I agree.
[03:53] Wagen
    First time at a foot bath, too?
[03:54] Buchio
    Yes!
[03:56] Wagen
    This is actually Kazuhiko's favorite spot.
[03:59] Wagen
    He used to visit all the time.
[04:00] Buchio
    Oh, really?
[04:03] Wagen
    Before I was reborn,
[04:05] Wagen
    he always came here
    with his wife, Namiko-san.
[04:09] Wagen
    I'd watch from the parking
    lot as they used the foot bath.
[04:15] Wagen
    They always looked so happy.
[04:18] Wagen
    But...
[04:20] Wagen
    Since he lost Namiko-san,
    Kazuhiko-san has... changed somehow.
[04:27] Wagen
    I understand all too well
    how hard it is for him.
[04:31] Wagen
    So I'm sure it just can't be helped, but...
[04:35] Wagen
    It feels like he isn't really
     living in the present.
[04:39] Wagen
    He only thinks about what's ahead.
[04:43] Wagen
    Like, he worries about what'll
    happen to me after he dies.
[04:48] Wagen
    I realize we have
    different lifespans, but...
[04:54] Wagen
    Sorry! It probably sounds
    like I'm complaining...
[04:58] Buchio
    No, it's all right.
[05:02] Buchio
    Dying before me...
[05:06] Buchio
    I wonder if my family has the same thoughts.
SIGN    Fried Skewers
[05:14] Benmaru
    Hey, you're here.
[05:15] Yuri
    Yo.
[05:16] Yasu
    Heya!
[05:17] Buchio
    Good evening.
[05:18] Taira
    Hey, Yurippe, you're already here?
[05:21] Yuri
    Had a real hankering for
    fried skewers, I guess.
[05:24] Benmaru
    What drink do you want, Buchio-san?
[05:27] Buchio
    I'll start with beer.
[05:30] Taira
    Jiro said he had stuff to do.
[05:32] Benmaru
    What stuff?
[05:33] Taira
    A meeting of the Tengu Association.
[05:36] Benmaru
    I see.
[05:38] Taira
    He was pretty bummed.
    The skewers here are amazing.
[05:41] Buchio
    I've never had fried skewers before.
[05:44] Yuri
    We ordered the classics to start with.
[05:46] Yasu
    Just remember, no double
    dipping in the sauce.
[05:51] Buchio
    It's delicious!
[05:53] Buchio
    But... what is it?
[05:56] Taira
    That one's gingko nuts.
[05:57] Buchio
    Wow.
[05:58] Yasu
    The king trumpet mushroom's good, too!
[06:00] Buchio
    Oh, this one?
[06:01] Yasu
    Yep, that's it!
[06:05] Yuri
    Well?
[06:08] Yuri
    I heard something was bothering you.
[06:11] Buchio
    Huh?
[06:12] Benmaru
    You've looked down every
    time we've seen you lately.
[06:16] Benmaru
    We were kinda worried.
[06:18] Benmaru
    Maybe that was insensitive.
[06:21] Buchio
    I'm sorry.
[06:22] Yuri
    You're kind of an open book, y'know.
[06:25] Yuri
    Something wrong?
[06:30] Buchio
    Actually...
[06:34] Taira
    Ah, I get it.
[06:37] Taira
    Different lifespans, huh?
[06:40] Benmaru
    That is a pretty sensitive subject.
[06:42] Buchio
    I guess it is, isn't it?
[06:45] Taira
    It's one thing it if's two humans or
    two long-lived types discussing it, but...
[06:51] Buchio
    When I turned from a cat into a nekomata...
[06:55] Buchio
    In my head, at least, I knew I'd turned
    into a yokai that will outlive humans.
[07:01] Buchio
    I knew it, but...
[07:03] Buchio
    When I think about my
    family dying before me,
[07:07] Buchio
    I suddenly feel so scared.
[07:10] Buchio
    And I can't talk to them about it...
[07:13] Buchio
    Do all of you...
[07:15] Yuri
    It's not like that for me.
[07:17] Yuri
    Bakegitsune don't live long lives.
[07:20] Yuri
    Apparently our ancestors way back used to,
[07:23] Yuri
    but now, we live about
    as long as most humans.
[07:25] Yasu
    There are a lot of yokai
    like that, actually.
[07:28] Yasu
    Like us okuri-itachi, too.
[07:32] Benmaru
    I've experienced the fear you're feeling,
[07:37] Benmaru
    so I understand.
[07:39] Benmaru
    When you think about
    the differences in our lifespans,
[07:41] Benmaru
    it makes everyone view how they interact
    with humans and yokai differently.
[07:47] Benmaru
    Some avoid relationships altogether
[07:50] Benmaru
    to avoid that fear, or because they
    think it's better for both sides.
[07:55] Benmaru
    I think what will resolve
    the concerns you have
[07:59] Benmaru
    depends on what it is you,
    yourself, want to do.
[08:04] Taira
    But you know...
[08:05] Taira
    Regardless of the
    lifespans we start out with,
[08:08] Taira
    there's no way to really know
    when anyone will die.
[08:12] Taira
    So maybe there's no need to
    think too much about it right now...
[08:15] Taira
    at least, that's what I think.
[08:18] Taira
    Sorry.
[08:20] Yasu
    It's a tough one...
[08:23] Yasu
    Wanna order some skewers?
[08:25] Buchio
    Okay.
[08:27] Buchio
    What it is I want to do, huh?
[08:30] Buchio
    I wonder what Wagen-san thinks...
[08:35] Kazuhiko
    Morning, Chiaki.
[08:37] Wagen
    Morning.
[08:38] Kazuhiko
    Wait, what's today again?
[08:41] Wagen
    It's Saturday.
[08:43] Kazuhiko
    Oh, shoot. I skipped breakfast duty.
[08:47] Wagen
    It's fine. You can just do it tomorrow.
[08:49] Kazuhiko
    Sorry about that.
[08:54] Kazuhiko
    Good morning, Nami-chan.
[08:58] Wagen
    Kazuhiko-san and Namiko-san
[09:01] Wagen
    started out as childhood friends.
[09:11] (Flashback) Kazuhiko
    You have really pretty eyes, Nami-chan.
[09:16] (Flashback) Kazuhiko
    I heard they call that color "emerald."
[09:20] (Flashback) Namiko
    Thanks...
[09:24] (Flashback) Namiko
    They told me it's genetic.
[09:27] (Flashback) Namiko
    See that plant in the garden?
[09:30] (Flashback) Namiko
    They said my great-great-great-grandpa
    was a basho-no-sei.
[09:36] (Flashback) Kazuhiko
    Basho...
SIGN    fs20\bord2\i1\3c&HF2F3F5&\c&H657385&}Musa basjoo*
    Basho (Japanese Banana Plant)
    Basho is a relative of bananas!
[09:44] (Flashback) Kazuhiko
    So it's the personification of a banana?
[09:49] Wagen
    When they were both thirteen years old,
[09:51] Wagen
    Namiko-san's parents divorced,
[09:54] Wagen
    and she moved away to live with her mother.
SIGN    Blue
    Mountains
[09:59] Wagen
    They didn't meet again
    until they were both nineteen.
[10:07] (Flashback) Yokai
    I guess we just weren't a match.
[10:10] (Flashback) Kazuhiko
    I guess not.
[10:13] (Flashback) Namiko
    Are the people behind me... breaking up?
[10:27] (Flashback) Kazuhiko
    Nami-chan?!
[10:28] (Flashback) Namiko
    Kazu-kun! It's been so long!
[10:31] (Flashback) Namiko
    Did you just... get dumped?
[10:33] (Flashback) Kazuhiko
    Yeah...
[10:36] Wagen
    As the two of them talked for a while,
[10:39] Wagen
    they realized they shared
    the same values and sensibilities.
[10:43] Wagen
    Over time, they became best friends.
[10:48] Wagen
    Then, a year after their reunion...
[10:52] Wagen
    That was when we met.
[10:58] Wagen
    That first drive the three
    of us took together...
[11:01] Wagen
    I'll never forget how
    beautiful the ocean looked.
[11:07] (Flashback) Namiko
    I haven't seen the ocean in so long!
[11:09] (Flashback) Kazuhiko
    It's really pretty.
[11:12] (Flashback) Namiko
    Remember what I told you before?
[11:14] (Flashback) Namiko
    I want to live my own way as much as I can.
[11:18] (Flashback) Namiko
    I want to die alongside nature,
    without fighting it.
[11:23] (Flashback) Namiko
    I don't particularly want to
    get married or have children,
[11:27] (Flashback) Namiko
    but I do want to be... with you, I guess.
[11:33] (Flashback) Kazuhiko
    I want to be with you, too.
    In fact, I'd love to call you my wife.
[11:39] (Flashback) Kazuhiko
    Or maybe I should say "with you forever"?
[11:44] (Flashback) Namiko
    Don't call me your wife!
[11:46] (Flashback) Kazuhiko
    Ow, ow! That hurts!
[11:51] Wagen
    I was so happy that I got to be
    with the two of them, too.
[11:58] Wagen
    When they were both sixty...
[12:01] (Flashback) Kazuhiko
    Morning, Nami-chan.
[12:05] (Flashback) Namiko
    Kazu-kun... What is happening to me?
[12:13] (Flashback) Doctor
    Most of her organs, including her skin,
    are ceasing to function.
[12:18] (Flashback) Doctor
    Apparently it's because she descends
    from a basho-no-sei,
[12:21] (Flashback) Doctor
    so I think it's fair
    to call this a genetic illness.
[12:24] (Flashback) Doctor
    When the original basho plant withers,
[12:27] (Flashback) Doctor
    so does the spirit.
[12:29] (Flashback) Doctor
    Its original, ancient
    characteristics have manifested.
[12:34] (Flashback) Doctor
    The only treatment I can offer
[12:36] (Flashback) Doctor
    is medication to slow
    the progression of symptoms.
[12:45] (Flashback) Kazuhiko
    I went to visit your old family home,
[12:48] (Flashback) Kazuhiko
    and the basho was...
[12:51] (Flashback) Namiko
    I see.
[12:53] (Flashback) Namiko
    You can tell what I'm thinking, can't you?
[13:00] (Flashback) Kazuhiko
    Yeah.
[13:04] (Flashback) Namiko
    All I want is to live as I am
    and die as I am.
[13:09] (Flashback) Namiko
    Withering away is the right thing for me,
[13:11] (Flashback) Namiko
    not extending my life with medication.
[13:14] (Flashback) Namiko
    I never produced a single seed...
[13:18] (Flashback) Namiko
    But I'd like you to stay
    with me until I return to the earth.
[13:23] (Flashback) Kazuhiko
    I know.
[13:26] (Flashback) Namiko
    And after that, you can call me your wife.
[13:31] (Flashback) Kazuhiko
    Okay...
[13:35] Wagen
    I didn't see Namiko-san
    in her final moments.
[13:42] Wagen
    But...
[13:43] Wagen
    Kazuhiko-san told me that she
    looked happy when she passed.
[13:50] Wagen
    I just hope I can share
    Kazuhiko-san's sadness from now on,
[13:55] Wagen
    little by little.
[14:02] Jiro
    Oh, Mu-chan.
[14:04] Jiro
    Hello.
[14:06] Mutsumi
    Hi.
[14:07] Mutsumi
    I came with my uncle today.
[14:09] Mutsumi
    You're gonna get some fish from him.
[14:11] Jiro
    Oh, really?
[14:13] Mutsumi
    Is that for the barrier?
[14:16] Jiro
    Yeah. Preparation for it, I guess.
[14:19] Jiro
    Sort of a dry run.
[14:22] Jiro
    I want to make the next barrier
    thicker, so I'm testing this out.
[14:28] Mutsumi
    Hmm...
[14:35] Mutsumi
    Because it was thin enough
    that I could break it?
[14:39] Jiro
    It's not your fault, Mu-chan.
[14:47] Jiro
    Mu-chan, are you angry?
[14:51] Mutsumi
    Not! At! All!
[14:56] Mutsumi
    Hey, Jiro.
[15:00] Mutsumi
    Remember when you said,
    "I'll remember all of it"?
[15:04] Mutsumi
    Do you remember all that's
    happened already, too?
[15:08] Jiro
    You mean what I said at the great cedar?
[15:10] Mutsumi
    Yeah.
[15:12] Jiro
    Well, yeah. I do.
[15:14] Mutsumi
    Like your memories?
[15:16] Jiro
    Yeah, that's it.
[15:17] Jiro
    Like all the people in town,
    and stuff from pretty long ago.
[15:22] Mutsumi
    How about when my grandma was a little girl?
[15:24] Jiro
    I do remember that.
SIGN    Jiro falling into a pitfall
[15:26] Jiro
    Kozue-san was quite the little prankster.
SIGN    With cow dung in it
[15:30] Mutsumi
    Really?! That's surprising!
[15:32] Jiro
    Her mother often scolded her for it...
[15:37] Mutsumi
    My grandma's mother would be...
    my great-grandma, right?
[15:42] Mutsumi
    Hey, Jiro...
[15:44] Jiro
    Sorry. I need to go look
    around in storage for some wire.
[15:49] Jiro
    It's cold out, so you can stay in the house.
[16:03] (Flashback) VillagerA
    I found him! Over here!
[16:05] (Flashback) VillagerB
    You alive?!
[16:06] (Flashback) VillagerC
    Hey!
[16:07] (Flashback) VillagerA
    Jiro-san!
[16:08] (Flashback) VillagerB
    It's not bad, is it?
[16:10] (Flashback) Haru
    Jiro..
[16:13] (Flashback) Haru
    Are you okay?
[16:17] (Flashback) Jiro
    Haru-chan...
[16:25] (Flashback) Haru
    Jiro! Look at this!
[16:29] (Flashback) Haru
    I picked raspberries.
[16:32] (Flashback) Haru
    Eat them with me!
[16:55] Jiro
    Darn it.
SIGN    Betobeto Kobayashi
SIGN    Heya!
SIGN    Are you free this evening?
SIGN    Want to go out for drinks
    like we used to?
[17:04] Jiro
    Well?
[17:05] Benmaru
    Hmm?
[17:06] Jiro
    Was there something you
    wanted to talk about?
[17:09] Benmaru
    Nah, I just wanted to drink
    with you again. It's been a long time.
[17:13] Jiro
    Okay, then.
[17:15] Benmaru
    You know, the last time our group went
    out drinking, Buchio-san was there.
[17:20] Benmaru
    He had some worries.
[17:21] Jiro
    Worries?
[17:23] Benmaru
    That tough subject all
    of us face sooner or later.
[17:27] Jiro
    I see.
[17:29] Benmaru
    I'd like to cheer him up,
[17:32] Benmaru
    but that alone won't really help him.
[17:38] Jiro
    Yeah. He must be really scared right now.
[17:55] Benmaru
    I told you there was nothing
    I wanted to talk about,
[17:58] Benmaru
    but I guess I might want to talk
    about you and your future.
[18:02] Jiro
    My future?
[18:04] Benmaru
    I mean, you hardly ever talk
    about yourself, let alone the future.
[18:11] Benmaru
    You must be carrying countless
    thoughts and feelings deep inside.
[18:17] Benmaru
    I'm worried you might sink
    into the depths of loneliness.
[18:29] Benmaru
    So I think it'd be nice if, someday,
[18:33] Benmaru
    we can talk about the future
    with cheerful hearts.
[18:38] Benmaru
    Am I overstepping?
[18:40] Jiro
    Not at all.
[18:42] Jiro
    It reminds me that I'm not alone.
[18:45] Jiro
    Sorry.
[18:49] Benmaru
    I'd rather you didn't apologize.
[18:58] Mutsumi
    Chiyo-chan!
[18:59] Hayachiyo
    Oh, Mu-chan.
[19:05] Mutsumi
    Hey, Chiyo-chan...
[19:06] Hayachiyo
    Yes?
[19:08] Mutsumi
    Do you have... anyone you love?
[19:11] Hayachiyo
    Oh? What brought this on?
[19:16] Mutsumi
    I dunno, I just... felt
    like talking about romance.
[19:20] Hayachiyo
    I see.
[19:22] Hayachiyo
    And who is the one you love?
[19:24] Mutsumi
    Jiro.
[19:25] Mutsumi
    It's Jiro, but... right now...
[19:30] Mutsumi
    I love him, but... it's not like... hrrngh.
[19:34] Mutsumi
    Now it's more like... hrg.
[19:38] Mutsumi
    When I watch Jiro, my chest sort of...
[19:42] Mutsumi
    tenses up, like it does when I feel sad.
[19:46] Mutsumi
    I love him, and I want to protect him,
[19:50] Mutsumi
    but I...
[20:01] Hayachiyo
    Mu-chan, you and Jiro-sama
    are very important to me.
[20:08] Hayachiyo
    I simply want the two of you
    to be in good health.
[20:11] Hayachiyo
    So if you are ever troubled,
    please call upon me.
[20:16] Hayachiyo
    It will be all right.
[20:21] Mutsumi
    Hearing you tell me it'll
    be okay is a huge relief!
[20:25] Hayachiyo
    Well, I'm glad to hear that.
[20:28] Mutsumi
    Anyway! Tell me who you love!
[20:36] Hayachiyo
    That is a secret.
[20:37] Mutsumi
    Aw!
[20:40] Sanae
    Mutsumi, hurry up and take your bath.
[20:43] Mutsumi
    Okay.
[20:52] Kozue
    Here, Mu-chan. I washed your pajamas.
[20:56] Mutsumi
    Grandma, tell me something.
[20:59] Mutsumi
    Is my great-grandma in these pictures?
[21:02] Kozue
    No, she isn't in any of these. Why?
[21:06] Mutsumi
    Jiro was talking about her.
[21:08] Kozue
    Was he, now?
[21:10] Mutsumi
    He said she scolded you a lot because
    you were always playing pranks.
[21:18] Kozue
    Well, you see...
[21:20] Kozue
    Your great-grandma didn't
    like cameras very much,
[21:23] Kozue
    so there aren't many pictures of her.
[21:27] Kozue
    But look here.
[21:29] Kozue
    This is the only one.
[21:33] Kozue
    This lady is your great-grandma.
[21:36] Mutsumi
    She's so young. There's
    nothing "grandma" about her.
[21:39] Kozue
    That's true.
[21:41] Kozue
    You know, it was Jiro who took that photo.
[21:45] Mutsumi
    Really?
[21:46] Kozue
    Yes.
[21:47] Kozue
    She was saying he made
    her model for the camera.
[22:07] Jiro
    I'm sorry.
