[00:00] ---
A college in Tokyo?
[00:03] ---
That's fine and all,
but why do you want to go there?
[00:07] ---
A production company?
[00:09] ---
Is that really
the kind of work you want to do?
[00:14] ---
Find your dream, Akira.
Biggest one you can.
[00:19] ---
A man without a dream
is nothing more than a jellyfish.
[00:23] ---
Like you know anything.
[00:26] ---
You're just...
[00:29] ---
a country farmer.

[00:47] ---
From the outset, it’s a ban-banging upset!
[00:50] ---
Metamorphose into a classic life
[00:52] ---
Once upon a time
Long, long ago
[00:55] ---
Humankind merely
ate, slept, danced, and laughed
[00:58] ---
Endless suffering and social pressures
pushing people to their limits
[01:01] ---
Are portrayed as part of the norm
on the morning news
[01:03] ---
Wake up again to a coerced routine
[01:05] ---
Hamburgers for breakfast, break up
the status quo with the paranormal
[01:08] ---
Am I a fool for longing for these things?
[01:10] ---
Song of the Dead!!
[01:12] ---
I wanna!!
Dancing, dancing
[01:14] ---
Rolling, rolling
Only one, my life
[01:18] ---
Sooner or later, life will come to an end
[01:21] ---
Want more than a sense of futility,
don’t you?
[01:24] ---
Dancing, dancing
Morning, morning
[01:27] ---
Go back to the basics
and start something new
[01:32] ---
Do what you wanna do
[01:35] ---
Every night, every time
[01:38] ---
Let’s live until we’ve had our fill of fun

[02:02] ---
Oh man!
[02:03] ---
We're almost at Akira's hometown!
[02:05] ---
I sure hope your parents are all right.
[02:08] ---
They'll be fine!
[02:09] ---
My parents wouldn't go down that easily!
[02:12] ---
As your best friend,
I have to introduce myself to them!
[02:15] ---
I'll entertain them with a one-liner!
[02:17] ---
UNPARALLELED
-I'll draw 'em in by getting naked.
[02:21] ---
It's been three years
since you visited your parents, right?
[02:24] ---
You're not nervous, are you?
[02:26] ---
N-No! Not at all!
[02:30] ---
Well, honestly,
it's gonna be kind of awkward.
[02:35] ---
Now that I've quit my job, I don't know
what I'm gonna say when I see him.
[02:38] ---
Akira!
[02:46] ---
What's going on?
[02:49] ---
I'll go check it out!
[02:58] ---
Zombies.
[02:59] ---
Your village is past this tunnel, right?
[03:02] ---
You don't think...
[03:03] ---
The villagers have...
[03:06] ---
No. I don't recognize anyone in there.
[03:18] ---
Anyway, since we can't
get through the tunnel,
[03:20] ---
there's only one other way to continue.
[03:23] ---
We'll cut through the forest,
and go over the mountain.
[03:38] ---
Don't worry.
[03:41] ---
The entrance and exit of the tunnel
were sealed.
[03:45] ---
They probably managed to seal away
the zombies that came from the cities.
[03:49] ---
I'm sure the villagers are safe.
[03:54] ---
A scream?!
[03:55] ---
Where is it coming from?
[03:59] ---
O-Out of the way!
[04:01] ---
A zombie boar?
[04:02] ---
Please get down!
[04:04] ---
Oshite mairu!
[04:14] ---
Are you all right?
[04:18] ---
Man, you really did me a solid back there!
[04:21] ---
My name is Masaru Kumano!
Nice to meet you!
[04:27] ---
Mr. Kumano, what are you doing
so deep in the forest?
[04:30] ---
What am I doing? The cities are overrun
with monsters, aren't they?
[04:34] ---
I was looking for a safe place
and ended up settling here!
[04:38] ---
That monster boar was unexpected, though!
[04:41] ---
Home is where you make it!
I understand!
[04:44] ---
But you can't live
in the middle of the forest!
[04:49] ---
Wh-Whoa!
[04:52] ---
This is...
[04:53] ---
Could it be?
[04:55] ---
It's a treehouse, of course!
[04:57] ---
Despite how things seem,
I'm a master carpenter!
[05:00] ---
No house?
No problem, I can just build one!
[05:05] ---
23. BUILD A TREEHOUSE
-Uh, based on how things have been going...
[05:07] ---
Japanisch Tischler!
[05:09] ---
This is an oak tree!
[05:12] ---
Oaks have large, thick branches
so they make perfect host trees.
[05:17] ---
Southern trees rot too easily!
[05:19] ---
But you can find
some northern trees in this area!
[05:22] ---
This is an amazing and rare forest
[05:24] ---
that's quite unusual
from a global perspective!
[05:26] ---
Mr. Kumano,
[05:27] ---
there's no telling when another zombie
boar will attack before it's completed.
[05:30] ---
This is a race against time.
[05:32] ---
It'd be better if you had help, right?
[05:34] ---
W-Well, sure...
[05:36] ---
Aren't we racing against time
to see if your parents are safe?
[05:39] ---
I can't believe
you'd ignore someone in danger!
[05:42] ---
Have some heart, Shizuka!
[05:45] ---
Your own secret base where you can stretch
your wings and leave the world down below!
[05:49] ---
A building at one with nature,
[05:51] ---
where you can embrace
the mighty power of the trees!
[05:53] ---
Where sky's the limit for design!
[05:55] ---
A treasure trove of imagination
and playfulness!
[05:57] ---
A dreamhouse suspended in mid-air!
[05:59] ---
A treehouse!
[06:01] ---
Can we?! We only live once.
Can we build a treehouse with our hands?
[06:07] ---
I think that's a great idea.
[06:09] ---
I don't understand what's going on,
but I'll be counting on you!
[06:16] ---
PITY REVEAL ENTRUST
-Affection. Sympathy. Affection. Sympathy.
[06:21] ---
Honestly, why are men always so...
[06:22] ---
I did it!
[06:25] ---
A hose?
[06:26] ---
It's difficult to judge how level
things are between trees by eyeballing it.
[06:30] ---
You can measure it by checking the water
level of a hose filled with water!
[06:33] ---
Whoa!
[06:34] ---
Amazing!
[06:35] ---
I see. You're right!
[06:37] ---
Eyeballing it, I thought it was level,
but I was completely off!
[06:41] ---
If you place your nails and bolts
in the right locations,
[06:44] ---
you won't damage the tree!
[06:45] ---
-Whoa! I see!
-Whoa! I see!
[06:48] ---
It's best to leave a five cm gap
between boards,
[06:50] ---
so fallen leaves won't get stuck in them!
[06:52] ---
-I see!
-I see!
[06:54] ---
Treehouses are built differently
from tree to tree.
[06:58] ---
The tree itself
will tell you how to build,
[07:01] ---
and what kind of house it'll be.
[07:03] ---
If you're not sure of something,
ask the forest.
[07:06] ---
The forest?
[07:08] ---
That's right!
[07:09] ---
The foundation of a treehouse
is the tree itself.
[07:12] ---
If the host tree dies,
the house is done for.
[07:16] ---
When you think of a tree, think about
the other trees and the earth around it.
[07:21] ---
By doing that, you'll become mindful
of the entire forest.
[07:26] ---
And that's how you'll hear
the voice of the forest.
[07:38] ---
I feel like I just learned something
really profound.
[07:43] ---
When you think of a tree, think about
the other trees and the earth around it.
[07:47] ---
By doing that, you'll become mindful
of the entire forest.
[07:52] ---
And that's how you'll hear
the voice of the forest, huh?
[07:58] ---
Does that mean...
[08:00] ---
If you think of yourself
[08:02] ---
and others around you...
[08:05] ---
you'll become mindful of the whole world?
[08:09] ---
So, when the day comes when I can hear
the voice of the world one day...
[08:14] ---
What would I write in my bucket list then?
[08:20] ---
You know, you've got
quite a knack for this!
[08:23] ---
What? Really?
Thank you very much!
[08:26] ---
I've always dreamed of having
a treehouse since I was little.
[08:31] ---
That's great to hear!
[08:32] ---
Come to think of it,
[08:34] ---
my son used to pester me to build
a treehouse for him when he was a kid!
[08:38] ---
I see!
[08:39] ---
Where is your son right now?
[08:46] ---
Mr. Kumano?
[08:49] ---
My son was bitten by my wife
right before my eyes.
[08:54] ---
So, I had to deal with 'em...
with my own hands.
[08:57] ---
I thought I could take my time
[08:59] ---
and build a tree house with my son
when he was bigger and I had retired.
[09:05] ---
People say, when you're ready to repay
your parent, it's already too late.
[09:10] ---
Turns out,
it works the other way 'round too.
[09:16] ---
Whoops!
[09:22] ---
You have my support.
[09:24] ---
Let's finish this together!
[09:28] ---
Thank you.
[09:30] ---
All right! Just a little more
until it's complete!
[09:34] ---
Let's give it our all!
[09:41] ---
The treehouse is complete!
[09:46] ---
This is the best house ever! Yay!
[09:50] ---
This canned food is very delicious!
[09:52] ---
It was the right call
to grab these from the store!
SIGN 23. BUILD A TREEHOUSE
[09:58] ---
Mr. Kumano,
it's been great working with you.
[10:01] ---
I'll be in this forest.
[10:04] ---
If there's trouble, give me a holler,
and I'll give you a hand.
[10:07] ---
Okay!
[10:08] ---
How unusual.
[10:09] ---
I thought you would say,
"I got to spend the night in a treehouse."
[10:13] ---
Yeah, well...
[10:17] ---
I kinda got a strong urge
to see my mom and dad.
[10:31] ---
That was close!
[10:32] ---
Aren't there any other routes
we can take, Akira?!
[10:35] ---
This place used to be called
the "Hungry Gorge."
[10:38] ---
because of how many people died here.
[10:40] ---
Until they opened the tunnel, this was
the route to and from the village!
[10:46] ---
Also they say my village started out
as a penal colony long ago.
[10:49] ---
Enclosed by steep mountains and valleys...
It's like a remote island on land!
[10:54] ---
Hey!
[10:55] ---
We somehow managed to cross it.
[10:57] ---
Y-You sure grew up in a pretty wild place.
[11:01] ---
Would you believe
I was a wild child myself?!
[11:03] ---
Yeah, I believe it.
[11:05] ---
But thanks to all this...
[11:07] ---
It's very likely that everyone
in the village is still safe!
[11:13] ---
We're here.
[11:15] ---
That's my home,
where I was born and raised!
[11:23] ---
Have I given anything back to my parents
since becoming an adult?
[11:28] ---
Their birthdays and my first paycheck...
[11:31] ---
I had plenty of opportunities,
[11:34] ---
but I never really thought about it
until now.
[11:38] ---
Dad... Mom...
[11:42] ---
I'll be home soon!
[11:51] ---
N-No way...
[11:55] ---
Where's everyone from the village?!
[11:57] ---
Dad. Mom!
[12:00] ---
Akira!
[12:03] ---
This can't be happening.
[12:04] ---
This can't be happening, right?!
[12:06] ---
Please! I'm begging you!
Please be safe!
[12:10] ---
Dad! Mom!
[12:13] ---
Hey, yo! Yo, ho!
[12:16] ---
Drink! Dance!
[12:18] ---
And a'yo ho ho!
[12:25] ---
Hey, yo ho! What's this?
[12:27] ---
A-Aren't you Akira, Tendo's kid?
[12:31] ---
Teruo! Akiko! Akira has come back!
[12:34] ---
What?
[12:35] ---
Akira? Akira, is that you?
[12:43] ---
Dad...
[12:52] ---
Dad! Thanks for working hard everyday
non-stop to put me through college!
[12:59] ---
Mom! Thanks for packing me lunch everyday
and washing my rugby club uniforms!
[13:06] ---
I wouldn't be alive today
if it weren't for the both of you!
[13:10] ---
I've just given you nothing
but troubles and worries.
[13:14] ---
Also!
[13:16] ---
I've never done anything for you!
[13:18] ---
I used work as an excuse to not visit you
for the past three years.
[13:23] ---
I'm sorry! I'm really sor—
[13:30] ---
That hurts! What was that for?
[13:33] ---
Ya came back here
just to spill that nonsense?
[13:38] ---
The world's a mess.
Think a little before you act.
[13:42] ---
Nonsense?
[13:44] ---
Y'all Akira's friends?
[13:46] ---
You must've had a tough time
crossing that dangerous path.
[13:49] ---
We've got plenty of empty rooms,
so get some rest for now.
[13:52] ---
Oh, thank you!
[13:54] ---
Thank you very much!
[13:57] ---
I leave the rest to you, dear.
[13:59] ---
I'm off to the fields.
[14:03] ---
Your dad's not the man I'd pictured.
[14:06] ---
-All right, we should get to work too!
-All right!
[14:11] ---
We have wild plants we forage in the
mountains and vegetables from our fields.
[14:15] ---
We're a small village with nothing fancy,
but please make yourself at home.
[14:19] ---
Thank you very much, ma'am!
[14:21] ---
Thanks for the food!
[14:24] ---
Whoa! This is so good!
[14:26] ---
So this is tempura!
[14:30] ---
Have you been locked down here
sustaining yourselves
[14:33] ---
all this time in the village?
[14:34] ---
Yes, we're a remote village
[14:37] ---
that's pretty much sealed off
every winter anyway with all the snow.
[14:41] ---
We've always survived the winter
by farming and hunting.
[14:46] ---
So, this spot of trouble
isn't trouble at all.
[14:48] ---
I see.
[14:50] ---
If I may ask...
[14:52] ---
The zombies in the tunnel...
[14:54] ---
A lot of people from the city
tried to take shelter here
[14:57] ---
when they heard rumors
that this village was safe.
[15:00] ---
But some of them were infected and spread
the infection to those around them.
[15:08] ---
We had no choice but to seal the tunnel.
[15:11] ---
Stopped the infection in its tracks.
[15:14] ---
I'm really glad
you and the others are safe!
[15:18] ---
Anyway, a number of people from the city
managed to survive.
[15:23] ---
This village has been losing residents
for a while,
[15:26] ---
so there are many empty houses.
[15:27] ---
We let them use those and live with us.
[15:32] ---
Wunderbar!
[15:33] ---
Akira!
[15:34] ---
We should add historic home renovations
on your list!
[15:37] ---
Whoa! That's a good one!
[15:40] ---
Hold on now!
[15:41] ---
There was a reason why I came back
to my parents' place!
[15:44] ---
I haven't repaid Mom and Dad!
[15:47] ---
I have to be a good son!
[15:49] ---
31. GO HOME AND SPEND TIME WITH MY PARENTS
-I have to be a good son!
[15:52] ---
This is truly a glimpse of old Japan.
[15:55] ---
I wasn't even born here, but I feel like
I've returned to my hometown.
[16:00] ---
What’s this feeling of nostalgia?
[16:01] ---
-Right?
-Right?
[16:03] ---
Oh! You don't need to do that!
[16:05] ---
I'll wash the dishes for you!
You can just sit back!
[16:08] ---
Really?
[16:10] ---
Anyway, look, I got you a souvenir!
It's Biyoko Tweats, a Tokyo specialty!
[16:14] ---
Oh, thank you.
[16:16] ---
Oh! Are you tired?
Want me to massage your shoulders?
[16:18] ---
I'm all right.
[16:19] ---
Then how about
I take you on a trip somewhere!
[16:22] ---
How about a hot spring?
[16:22] ---
I found a really amazing spring
in the mountains recently.
[16:26] ---
Akira.
[16:27] ---
Thanks for worrying about me,
[16:30] ---
but aren't you exhausted
from your long journey?
[16:33] ---
I can do the dishes myself,
so get some rest.
[16:39] ---
Hey, Akira.
[16:42] ---
Could use your help if you're free.
[16:54] ---
H-How have you been lately?
[16:57] ---
Have your backaches gone away?
[16:58] ---
Nah. It's the same as always.
[17:02] ---
Dad, you've really been doing this
by yourself?
[17:05] ---
Working the fields sure is hard work!
[17:06] ---
Nah, it's not that bad.
[17:10] ---
But now that I'm here,
I can help you with anything!
[17:12] ---
You can count on me for--
[17:14] ---
Everyone in the village must work together
to do their part.
[17:18] ---
Everyone knows that.
[17:20] ---
Th-That's true.
[17:28] ---
I'm having trouble
making Mom and Dad happy.
[17:36] ---
This is so difficult!
[17:40] ---
How do you...
[17:43] ---
repay your parents?
[17:52] ---
Don't expect I've got much time left...
[17:54] ---
Dad!
[17:55] ---
The green beans were ready to harvest.
[17:57] ---
This should be enough for dinner...
[18:00] ---
Uh, Dad?
[18:03] ---
-Is something--
-Nah. It's nothing.
[18:29] ---
Oh...
[18:30] ---
Those guys came from the city.
[18:33] ---
That guy...
I've seen him before.
[18:42] ---
A-Are we really doing this?
[18:45] ---
Of course we are.
[18:53] ---
JOB SEARCH
-Just 23,000 Yen
for contract work? And no bonus?
[18:56] ---
Just 23,000 Yen
for contract work? And no bonus?
[19:02] ---
Do they think I'm stupid?
[19:05] ---
I guess working really is for losers.
[19:09] ---
Damn it!
[19:11] ---
I should've had that old lady get me more.
[19:15] ---
What a pain!
[19:18] ---
When and why did I start falling behind
those around me?
[19:24] ---
A life of being unwanted
by society and by others.
[19:32] ---
I wish I could go back to summer break
[19:35] ---
in grade school when I didn't
have to think about anything
[19:38] ---
and I could go to the pool with my friends
every day and do whatever I wanted.
[19:48] ---
Help me!
[19:51] ---
Stop it!
[20:00] ---
Wh-What the hell is that?
[20:16] ---
Yes!
[20:18] ---
I'm free!
[20:20] ---
I was unwanted by those guys and society!
[20:24] ---
And they've all...
They've all been destroyed!
[20:27] ---
From now on, it's summer break every day!
[21:17] ---
Going to the public pool by yourself
during summer break is pretty lame.
[21:24] ---
Hey, you three.
[21:27] ---
Do ya wanna have some fun together?
SIGN TRY OUT ANY AND EVERY...
[21:35] ---
Fire a real gun...
[21:38] ---
Blow something up with dynamite.
[21:40] ---
Burn down the company that insulted me.
[21:43] ---
I wanna force my tongue
down a girl's throat!
[21:47] ---
Slap my bitch of a wife!
[21:52] ---
We've all been rejected by society.
[21:58] ---
It's our turn to have fun
and do whatever we want.
[22:01] ---
Our last summer break!
[22:06] ---
We're all just waiting to become zombies.
[22:12] ---
But while we're waiting...
SIGN 100 THINGS WE WANT TO DO BEFORE BECOMING ZOMBIES -might as well do what we want.
[22:19] ---
100 THINGS WE WANT TO DO
BEFORE BECOMING ZOMBIES
-It’d be a shame if we didn't.
[22:21] ---
Being bored
[22:23] ---
With nothing but efficient days
[22:25] ---
Sure that's fine
[22:28] ---
But it's kind of a waste, right?
[22:30] ---
When I think today could be my last
[22:33] ---
Steve would start to make a bitter smile;
Let's start something

Life & Death
[22:39] ---
How many times has it been already?
And yet...
[22:42] ---
I can't stop; like a junkie
[22:46] ---
One more time, c'mon, one more time
[22:49] ---
Let's go all the way
to the end of the world, yeah
[22:54] ---
C'mon, I want to find happiness
[22:57] ---
You can leave the key behind
[22:59] ---
If I can live and laugh,
that's good enough
[23:02] ---
C'mon, even a place that has nothing
[23:05] ---
Has to have something
[23:07] ---
How about it? All right!
[23:09] ---
Let's get excited about today!
[23:10] ---
C'mon, here in this hell, the earth
[23:13] ---
I want to keep laughing with you
[23:16] ---
Living on a whim
[23:19] ---
C'mon, everything is coming undone
[23:21] ---
So c'mon, let's start anew
[23:25] ---
All right! Let's enjoy today
[23:28] ---
We can take detours
[23:30] ---
If you feel like singing, that's fine
[23:32] ---
Until the day everything ends
[23:46] ---
Next time: Hometown of the Dead I.
