So please,

reject me.

I can't get married... to you.

Do you like her?

Actually I don't know if I like her or not,

but I really enjoy her company.

I'm sorry, it's against the rules
to ask something like that.

It's okay... I'll reject you.

Huh?

Actually, as I've told you,

I've only ever been rejected,

I've never rejected anyone myself.

In the future too, I think it's unlikely

that I'll have to reject someone myself.

And anyway, there is something
I really have to do right now

It's much more serious than love or marriage.

So I'll do it without hesitation.

It's a painful thing to have to marry
someone you don't have feelings for.

Not just for women but for the men too.
It's painful for everyone.

Is it really okay?

If the only thing I can do for you right now,

is grant your request, then I will.

Thank you.

No, I should be thanking you.

In the short time we've spent together,

I'm so grateful for your friendship.

If I'm able to meet a beautiful person
like you, then the law isn't all bad.

That's what I thought the moment I met you.

You were only happy because I was beautiful?

No, that wasn't the only thing I felt.

You were unexpectedly
natural, interesting and honest,

that's what I thought.

-Is that supposed to be a compliment?
-I guess.

Then I'll take it as one.

Who wrote this report?

For the time being, his name is concealed,

but he is a trustworthy person.

I see.
There are several issues listed.

First and foremost is to revise the rules of the law

to be more favourable for LGBT people?

Yes.

The problem is more serious
than you could imagine.

To set up an anonymous hotline for LGBT people

would require an increase in tax spending.

Do you want to say that spending
money on LGBT people is a waste,

like with unpopular people?

I didn't say that.

Even if I did want to use people's
hard earned taxes to help a minority,

I wouldn't necessarily be able to get
the support of the majority to do it.

You're a journalist,

you should realise that people's opinions
are not so easy to manipulate.

So the problem can be solved with a majority vote,

and then the minority can be omitted.

That's democracy, so why reject the idea?

You are rejecting Nana Fuyumura?

Please could you tell us the reason?

Well...

Did she not match your desired condition?

With my desired condition she...

No, please put it down as a personality mismatch.

Thank you very much.

I submitted the report to Minister Onodera.

I see, so your mother went back home to Hyogo.

Yes, finally.

Actually, she said she wanted to stay longer.

Your mother was nice and friendly.

So I wonder if I'm okay?

Huh?

It didn't feel bad but I just
had a hunch something wasn't right.

Well... don't worry, she said
you're a good person.

I'm so glad.

Next time, I'll have to
introduce you to my parents.

Yeah.

I won't be able to this week as I have
a business trip to finalise a new project,

so let's talk next week.

I'll call you when I'm settled in.

Okay.

I hope your work goes well, good night.

I can't trust that man, it's mother's intuition.

I'm telling you, it will be bad, stop!

I can't rely on that... mother's intuition.

Huh, you negotiated directly with Minister Onodera?

Yes. For an issue as serious as this,
it's best to go direct to the person in question.

That's amazing.

You must have really strong
connections to do that.

Talking of powerful connections,
I guess it is... I'm her daughter.

-Huh... her daughter?
-Yes.

I won't announce it officially,
but my full name is Hikari Onodera.

But I've been living apart from her
ever since I graduated from university.

Even though we both live in Tokyo,
we only see each other once a year.

That's the extent of our relationship.

Oh really?

But more importantly, your report.

Ah, yes.

Hey guys!

This is my friend Kitakaze kun.

And this is...

I'm Hirose, the representative of ASBE.
Pleased to meet you.

This report doesn't just address LGBT people,

but also how the lottery affects people with illnesses.

We considered the issue of illnesses,

we were careful on the official documents
not to discriminate based on medical history.

But, on the contrary,

that in itself has caused troublesome consequences.

Evidently, this is an appeal to create improvements to the law.

It's important to treat LGBT and
other sexual minorities with sensitivity,

get the thick-headed heads of
government to lay the groundwork.

But we should deal with the issue of
illness and medical history urgently.

A resistance organisation?

Yes, we decided that we should create one.

Though we're not an extremist group.

And so the leader of this ASBE group is Hirose san?

Well, I'm not actually directly involved,

but Tacchan encouraged me to become the leader.

It's impossible for me to be the leader.

But the subject of our activity is
not limited to our own interests.

We also want to consider issues of illness,

nationality, or any other discrimination
people have experienced because of this law.

I don't have the capacity to be a leader.

-But you have the capacity Hirose san?
-Yes.

I fact, thanks to Hirose san, people
have already begun to review the law.

Among them, are members
who like me, are not LGBT.

We will use the internet to
spread the information further

among friends and associates.

Naturally, I'll also use the internet
to spread the message.

Oh yeah...

Ichiro Yamaguchi... who is he?

He's Minister Onodera's PR officer.

He deals with all media correspondence.

A ministry of health, labour and welfare career man.

I think he'll be useful if something happens.

Is that okay?

We will announce new revisions

to the Lottery Matchmaking Marriage Bill.

If a person is currently suffering from an illness or disease,

their participation in the lottery
will be immediately suspended.

The information and medical history
will be considered highly confidential.

Submission of a medical certificate will be obligatory.

After examination of the certificate,
the person will be excluded.

Yes!

-We did it Tacchan!
-Well, at least, we've taken the first step.

Great! Now, don't lose focus!
The important thing is what happens next.

Everyone! Let's continue our strategy meeting.

We want to promote the distribution of
flyers and the dissemination of info on SNS.

-Also, please take care of the collection of signatures.
-Okay.

We'd like to hear from you too.

We've decided to launch a new SNS account,

It's called...

Lottery Matchmaking Marriage Bill suggestion box.

Yes! Basically, is it a place to
give opinion and suggestion?

Yes. We will gather opinions from far and wide,

while reporting details and status
updates for our activities there.

The administrator name is mine; ASBE Tacchan.

Anyone is free to post their opinions there without reserve.

Look at Tacchan's hand.

It's dirty, yet he doesn't seem to care.

Yeah.

It's a fake medical certificate we had made for you.

Symptoms of back pain and anemia caused by the disease.
A long absence from work is recommended to improve the condition

It was lucky your father has a doctor as a friend.

Send it in straight away,

apply for a lottery suspension.

Thanks but...

do I have to stay home and rest from now on?

There's no other way.

It's not like you have an important role at work anyway.

Yes, but...

You're saying I have to refrain
from going out, and I can't travel either?

That's perfectly reasonable.
Just stay home and do what you're told.

Hey... do you really want to be with me?

It's not just that you've reached your limit

and you don't want to join the terror eradication corps?

No.

Yoshimi, I have... something important to tell you.

Something important?

The reason I have been turned
down in each previous match.

This is why.

Who is she?

My daughter.

What? You have a child?

I'm sorry I didn't say anything.

You're kidding right?

I'm not kidding.

Are you divorced?

No, you can't be, divorcees
are exempt from the law.

I never married, even up till now, not at all.

Then the child?

But people who have a child
are also exempt from the lottery.

My daughter wasn't entered
onto my family register.

An illegitimate child?

I'd prefer you not to use those words.

I never meant to hide it.

What are you talking about?
You did hide it from me!

I tried many times, but just couldn't say it.

Well that sounds like hiding it to me.

Yoshimi, I want you to calm down and listen.

Until I met you, I told every match

right from the start.

They didn't think twice about
rejecting me when they found out.

An 8 year old daughter?

Yes, she's living abroad right now.

I'm really sorry, it won't be possible.

But if you have a child, then you're
not eligible to take part in the lottery?

Well, because it's not officially
acknowledged, I'm considered to be single.

You're a charming man, but I'm
afraid I can't go out with you.

I'll reject you.

But... when I met you, I couldn't say it.

I didn't want to be rejected on the spot.

Every time I saw you,
I fell more in love with you.

I realised that I seriously wanted to marry you.

Even though I knew I knew in
my head that I needed to tell you,

the words just wouldn't come out of my mouth.

It's Hikari
Thanks for dealing with
the sickness exclusion so quickly.
Can we meet again?
This time I want to talk to
my mother not the minister.

Thanks for dealing with
the sickness exclusion so quickly.
Can we meet again?
This time I want to talk to my mother not the minister.

Welcome.

Thanks for waiting.

As for the report,

what are the prospects for LGBT people?

Nothing as of yet.

You know Hikari, how about we
talk as mother and child today?

Okay, well...

There is someone I want to marry.

What kind of person is it?

Huh? Who?

It's my girlfriend.

She's the one I want to marry.

What are you saying?

I...

am a lesbian.

What kind of person is the girl's mother?

I was dating a woman in Thailand

where I was positioned with
my first job in a trading company.

Is she raising the child in Thailand?

She no longer has a mother... she died.

What?

I had planned to marry her,

but I was only going to be there for 2 years
before returning head office in tokyo.

I spoke to my parents about it
but they strongly opposed.

I had intended to persuade them, but...

it fell apart after I made a mistake
which caused a huge loss for the company.

It became difficult for me there
and I was under pressure to quit.

So you just left her?

I was serious about her,

but I'd just lost my job and
with it, my self-confidence.

I told her that she couldn't marry me
and she should give up.

but I didn't know that she
was pregnant at the time.

I found out 3 months later.

She informed me of the pregnancy by letter,

I can't bear it any more.

I don't want to hear anymore.

Leave.

I said leave!

Is this a joke Hikari? You're a lesbian?

I met her when I interviewed her. She's a primary
school teacher. She's a really lovely person.

Yes, but... you want to marry another woman?

We've been living together for 3 years.

So I want to register for a partnership certificate with her.

What we really want

is not just a rule revision,

We want you to revoke that
idiotic law completely.

But that's...

I just heard from my daughter
that she's not normal...

Not normal?! You mean to say I'm a freak!

I mean it's unexpected...

I get it. You're the daughter of a politician,

she's pushing you to do this.

Or at the very least, it all makes for a good story.

Is she just trying to use you?

She's not like that, I was the one who fell for her.

I don't want to know!

It's your own daughter mum... no,

the cabinet minister's daughter is
homosexual, it's an embarrassment.

I don't regret telling you today.

But,

it was a mistake to think that
you might understand.

It's so sudden of you to want to learn

how to make miso soup.

I wonder if this is just the beginning.

It's because I have a lot of free time now.

I didn't know our family's miso
soup had dried sardines.

We've used dried sardines for generations.

I taught your mother this
recipe when she was a newlywed,

My mother?

The remodelling... I've decided to delay it a little.

Huh?

I realised that we didn't need
to do it in such a hurry.

Thank you.

What? You're also homosexual?

I see.

You inspired me to take a step forward.

I confided in my mother...

she hasn't accepted it though.

I wasn't exactly confident she'd understand, but...

in some corner of my mind, I hoped she would.

It was a shock for her.

That's exactly what I'm afraid of,
why I can't confide.

Parents of homosexual children in all
likelihood will blame themselves.

That's a kind way to think of it.
I've just suddenly thrust this in her face,

and given her a huge shock.

The unexpected seriousness of it,

might cause her to blame herself.

It must be my fault that she only loves women.

There was something wrong
with the way I raised her.

I think that way of thinking in itself is a mistake.

-Huh?
-Ah, well... never mind.

Minister, here's the schedule for this afternoon.

See, what did I tell you?

An illegitimate child,

he completely tricked you.

-Yeah.
-What an outrageous lie!

If he really loved you,

he would have told you from the start.

If you're going to manage in a relationship, you
shouldn't put off conversations like that for so long.

You know, nobody's good enough for you anyway.

The naïvety of a country girl
against a couple of city playboys.

Well, you pulled the short
straw, but at least it's over.

Mum, I'm sorry but
I'm busy, I have to go.

Hey, Tacchan, look at this!

Okay.

I am thoroughly dissatisfied with this law.

I am thoroughly dissatisfied with this law.

This law bears no consideration for people like me who have gender dysphoria

People with gender dysphoria.

I Have been diagnosed with infertility, It's such a delicate problem.

I am also in favour of lottery bill revision. Copy and paste the link!

I'm also writing a blog about this law, I'll share it with you.

-Hey hey, do you know this?
-What is it? I don't know.

-What is this site?
-Should I write too?

We should be criticical.

-There are many people in the resistance.
-Resist, absolutely resist.

Tsukada san, have you heard?
Recently, this site's gone viral.

Lottery Matchmaking Marriage Bill suggestion box

If you're affected or not or not, you can complain,
suggest improvements, and exchange ideas.

-Maybe I'll write something too.
-It's good isn't it.

I'm back.
Wow, so tiring!

Collecting signatures was tough.

But we managed to get a lot. Thanks.

Mako chan, what's that?

This is really popular right now.

Nana chan, how are you feeling?

Me and Mitsuko san miss you.

I was so worried to think that your condition got worse

because of the matchmaking lottery.
Punch, punch punch, heart!

This is a place for people who have
been victimised by the lottery marriage act

to freely express their views.

Nana san, you too are a victim of this law.

I wash my hands hundreds of times a day.
I have to use my own chopsticks and straw when I'm out and I can't touch anyone.

Apparently it's a cleanliness compulsion that was
triggered by events in middle school.

Anyway, there is something
I really have to do right now

It's much more serious than love or marriage.

Could it be...

It's been a while,

It's been a while, It's just Nana.
Are you ASBE's Tacchan?

I'm home.

Yoshimi Suzukake sama,

I'm truly sorry.

I am sorry for the profound hurt
that I've caused you

by not telling you about my daughter.

When I received the letter from
Thailand informing me of the pregnancy,

I had just been dismissed from
my job and had lost my way

so I wasn't in a position to
rush immediately to Bangkok.

As a result of that, she became angry with me.

6 months later, I received a letter to
tell me the child had been born.

'I don't consider you to be the father anymore',

'I want you to forget about us', she wrote.

By this point, I had found a new job,

I sent a monthly allowance of 100, 000 yen,

which I still send to this day.

Yet, she still would not permit me to see my daughter.

When I received news of the mother's death from illness,

I immediately rushed to Bangkok
to take custody of my daughter.

But was violently rejected by her grandmother.

My daughter is currently being
raised by her grandmother.

She sends me a single photograph every year.

This year, my daughter turned 8 years old.

After that, I had intended
to never get married.

But then I met you and my
resolution was toppled.

Just like she did, you show your true character.

You don't decorate yourself or
pretend to be something you're not.

However, your similarity to her is not
the only reason I fell in love with you.

My upbringing was blessed
with wealth and abundance,

but I received no affection from my mother.

That's why I was so drawn to you,

your warm gentle character and
strong sense of motherhood.

The feelings I have of wanting
to marry you are real.

I have not lied about
the way I feel about you.

I will notify the executives that I will reject you.

Ranbo Ginbayashi.

What an outrageous lie!

If he really loved you,

he would have told you from the start.

There is a large interest emerging
in a new social media site right now.

It's called the Lottery Matchmaking
Marriage Bill suggestion box.

The heart of this new site, which is stirring up interest

is the dissemination of opinions on the law.

Certainly.

I will set up a meeting

specifically to introduce him to the cabinet minister.

Marriage meeting? Unfortunately
I've been turned down many times.

-Really?
-It's fine though.

-It's turned out for the best.
-A good thing?

I've already stopped taking my medication,
and I'm not washing my hands.

-Does that mean you're better now?
-Yeah, maybe.

I think it's because I'm working so
hard on this problem right now.

Thanks for sending me that tie.

It's possible that it brought me good luck.

Really? I was relieved to hear
your voice after so long.

-Take care of your health okay?
-Yeah, thanks... bye.

Your daughter has asked me to introduce you
to this gentleman, ASBE's Miyasaka san.

Pleased to meet you, I'm an acquaintance
of Hikari, Tatsuhiko Miyasaka san.

And this is...

I'm Hirose, a representative of ASBE.

Thank you very much for taking
the time to see us today.

Are you the ones who wrote this report?

Yes.

We,

We hope to achieve various things through revisions
to the Lottery Matchmaking Marriage Bill.

At the heart of that is the social media site

created by Miyasaka kun.

Do you know it's being widely
acknowledged by the mass media?

Of course I know.
Are you the administrators?

Yes. It's been very helpful
because there were many things

that we hadn't realised.

As part of our request for a review of the law,

we have collected many signatures.

Hikari Onodera

Actually, I am not here on behalf of the group.
I have a personal request.

Would you be able to repair
your relationship with Hikari san?

Did you say a suggestion box?

I will try to refer to the opinions posted there.

Could you please collate them
monthly and send them to us.

However, I am not committing
to a review of the law.

It just means that I won't disregard it.

-Okay, we will send them to you.
-Thank you so much.

Eh... wait...

Your time is up.

Mako chan, Mitsuko san.

Nana san!

-It's been so long.
-Are you coming back yet?

No, I just came to arrange
the extension of my absence.

-Here's a little something.
-Thank you so much.

So what's going on? Still in bad health?

-Yes.
-So what are you doing everyday?

Are you not leaving the house at all?

I'm doing things like cooking,
cleaning and laundry.

Excuse me.

Huh?

Ranbo

Nana, it's been so long.

Yeah, hello.

I was so surprised to hear from you.

I realised that there was
something I should really tell you.

Sorry.

You are a father?!

I can't believe it.

I felt...

at the very least I should tell you the truth.

I'm sorry I said nothing for so long.

Keeping it secret was the right thing to do.

If I'd have found out that the
guy I was dating had a kid,

I think I'd have flown into a rage.

So it would make everyone angry after all.

Did someone else get angry about it?

To tell the truth, I met someone that
I really wanted to marry.

And that's what happened?

-Yeah.
-But,

If you seriously like her,
then you shouldn't give up.

Persevere with all your heart.

But we're facing an iron wall,

the Lottery Matchmaking Marriage Bill.

In a normal relationship, it may be possible to recover,

but she has to go on to the next lottery.

What about you Nana? How are you doing?

I reached my limit, but I'm currently on a suspension

thanks to a fake illness certificate.
Am I terrible?

No, it's understandable.

It's not easy to meet people

who feel right in a lottery.

But you drew the lucky ticket didn't you?

That's exactly why you shouldn't give up on her.

What?

-Nana, you've changed.
-Huh?

You've become so nice.

What, me? Nicer than I was before?

-Let me think...
-You mean you've forgotten?

It feels like we had a good
response at the radio station.

And the director's reaction wasn't bad too.

It doesn't matter what the program is,
any promotion will be good.

Tacchan?

She's the only marriage match I rejected.

The beautiful one?

I guess that's her new match.

He's handsome and she's beautiful,
what a suitable match.

Who is he?

My last marriage match.

He said that it would be
fine to reject me himself.

Oh, he sounds like a good person.
There are many malicious people out there.

Yeah.
