Professor Yoshiyama.

Yes?

I've just completed the research data of organic composition and interior body movements.

Ah! Thanks!

And also, don't forget the medical case investigative commission starting at 2PM.

Okay...

It's alright to enthusiastically work on personal research,

but if you still get late, I will also be in trouble.

Got it.

Ah! Excuse me!

Found another one! Shouwa 47 coin!

Professor Yoshiyama, why are you collecting such old 100 yen coins?

I also don't know why!

I'm there! I'm there! I'm there! I'm there!

Huh? No way! Eh?!

It's not here!

There it is!

Excuse me! Sorry! Passing through!

A miracle happened!

Congratulations!

Yay!

Yay!

Here you go.

Okay.

Anyway, congratulations on passing.

Thank you!

Seems like we've always been celebrating here.

Yeah.

Ah, come to think of it,

I got reminded again that these boats are pretty small.

I wonder when the next time we'll ride these would be.

I wonder.

Here we go...

Say...

Hm?

What's Dad like?

What's this all of a sudden?

Well... just thinking...

It's just that I don't even remember him in the slightest.

Okay...

I just wondered what kind of person he is.

He's a strange man.

Even if he came back to Japan, he will still shoot movies as always.

I heard he's on a mountain right now.

Eh? So that means, you still get in touch with him?

Yeah. I got emails from him sometimes.

Why didn't you say anything about it?

Because you didn't ask.

H-Hey...

Hey duckies!

Get it!

[Go shoot like the flow of water With your body imitating a flower in bloom] [Misono Private Senior High Archery Club]

March 2, Tuesday Today is the third-year students' last shooting day Thanks to all the third-year members

As expected.

Even though your standing form is quite good.

Shut up!

I know that you're about to graduate,

so come home from time to time.

I really thank you for coming over.

Thank you also for coming for us.

Well, I don't think it's bad to be surrounded by young people sometimes.

You know the song, Motomiya-kun?

Of course I know! Yoshida Takurou is my god!

He's a strange high school kid!

What's this song?

"Because It's Spring"

- Ah! You really know the song! - Ain't it a good song?

Ain't it?

Ah! My throat hurts.

I sang too much of Takurou's.

So in the end, we depended on you again.

She even said that "It's a relief that Gorou-chan is just nearby".

Mom's right.

Yoshiyama-kun said that?

Yep, Yoshima-kun said that.

Ah...

Is she busy as always?

Yeah... she's a real workaholic.

Well, as long as she doesn't destroy her body. Yeah.

Thank you very much for today.

No prob.

See you again, Uncle Gorou.

Bye.

See you.

Ah!

Gorou-chan!

Sorry to call you during your work.

What was it that you wanted to deliver?

Yeah. This.

It's your photograph.

My photograph?

It's from our neighbor, Fukamachi-san.

You remember the people living in the rare western-style house?

It's from the old lady from there.

They found it when they were cleaning their attic.

Even Fukamachi-san doesn't know why you are there in the picture.

She said that it's a memento so I was asked to deliver it to you.

This boy next to you,

was he in our middle school?

That's the lavender from Fukamachi-san's greenhouse.

I heard that you really liked them.

On Saturday...

at the laboratory...

Yoshiyama-kun.

Yoshiyama-kun?

Yoshiyama-kun.

I... should go...!

Ah. Sorry to call you during your work.

Sorry!

Yoshiyama-kun...

Fukamachi-kun...

I don't need this.

English.

Don't need this.

History...

Hm?

Coming, coming, coming.

Hello. Yoshiyama residence.

Yes.

Um, excuse me. I'm Yoshiyama.

Are you the daughter?

Yes.

There really are not many external wounds,

but the bruise and some light lacerations can be seen.

It might take up to 2 weeks until she fully recovers.

But because of the impact to the head, she hasn't regained consciousness.

We can only wait until she wakes up.

As much as possible, please let her hear your voice.

I'll be coming back later.

Mom...

Mom...!

Please wake up!

Here you go.

You haven't had any sleep, right?

Why don't you lie down for a bit?

Yeah... I'm fine... - And for our next segment: That day, that time -

- And for our next segment: That day, that time -

- It's the Time Travel News corner. -

If by the time she wakes up and you are not well

Yoshiyama-kun will be worried.

-Time Travel-

-This happened 36 years ago on March 3, 1974.-

-Let's travel through time.-

-A bus going to Noshiro Akita prefecture got in an accident late at night.-

-Passengers going home and many ski passengers who rode the bus-

-on the night of March 2nd, they departed Shinjuku.-

-It was the 4th bus going north.-

-The ride before Fukushima, the road plans seemed fine-

You know I... -The ride before Fukushima, the road plans seemed fine-

-The ride before Fukushima, the road plans seemed fine-

36 years ago on this day, -The ride before Fukushima, the road plans seemed fine-

-The ride before Fukushima, the road plans seemed fine-

-But on the dawn of the 3rd,-

-a squall made the bus slip.-

-a squall made the bus slip.- I was planning on riding this bus.

I was planning on riding this bus.

-It crossed over the guard rails and fell off the cliff.-

-Including the crew and the passengers, a total of 38 valuable lives were taken away.-

I was on my way to go skiing.

I was clumsy.

So I forgot the bus ticket at home.

Even though it was an important time, but to be honest

my friend also lost her life in this accident.

But I think is fate that I lived...

Yoshiyama-kun is also one of those lucky people.

I'm sure she will wake up.

It's going to be alright.

Thank you...

Sorry, but umm...

Who might you be?

I am Mizorogi Ryouta.

And this is my place.

You don't remember yesterday?

Yesterday?

Fukamachi Kazuo?

Huh?

Guess not...

Is this the West Setagaya Middle School science laboratory?

Shoutoku College.

Geez! Why?!

Ah!

Aaah!

The hospital was closed

and I couldn't just leave you there.

So that's why I took you home.

U-umm...

What's the year, date and day of the week today?

It's February 17th, 1974, Sunday.

Eh?

Ah!

'74... February...

Ah! Wait!

Wait! Eh!?

W-wait!

'74, February...

February of '74...

Year 1972...

Ah!

I leapt to two years after the time I had to go to!

Ah!

Your bag!

Hey!

Where is the West Setagaya Middle School?

West Setagaya Middle School is in the other side of the station!

Ah! Ah!

Hey! Hey!

Huh? Huh? Wait...

I'm not familiar with the roads!

Come with me!

Eh?

West Setagaya Middle School

Ah! Wait! Excuse me!

Um, I'm looking for someone.

I'm looking for this young man.

Huh? Isn't that Yoshiyama-sempai beside him?

She already graduated last year.

Ah, that's right, that's right. But you see...

I'm looking for the young man.

I don't think I've seen him before.

Hey, hey!

Stop dawdling here and go home already.

Yes sir...

Sorry.

Here you go, freshly made!

Thanks.

So it's really...

February of '74...

So, what's your name?

Yoshiyama Akari.

Where do you live?

After you eat that, you should go home, 'kay?

Your parents at home might be worried about you.

You do have a home, right?

Umm...

I...

I came from the year 2010.

Eh?

I came from the future

to meet that person.

Did you get hit in the head badly?

Geez! It's the truth!

I practically fell from out of nowhere, right?

Right?

I do realize that...

Then how about I show you some proof?

Look at these.

Ah!

My wallet!

That's a 500 yen coin. There's also...

Ah!

Hirasei 19th?

This is the technology of 2010!

Is it a small size radio?

A cellphone/keitai.

Handheld/keitai?

Umm... It's...

It's main function is... umm... a phone...

Ah...

Ah right, there is no signal yet.

It can't reach anything.

And then, it does other things.

It can take pictures. Ain't it cool?

This is...

A complex model communication apparatus!

Eh?

It's the same prop that we're using in the 8mm sci-fi movie that I'm filming.

With this one device, you can contact anyone, anywhere.

It can even send documents.

The future I wrote is here.

Ah... wait...

Was it good enough?

Ah... so you see!

Do you believe me now?

You're an sci-fi otaku/geek right?

Otaku/Home?

Otaku/Geek.

Hey, come on Ryouta!

Let me stay at your place.

"Ryouta"? No way.

Ah! I can clean, do the laundry,

and I can even cook, so please!

I won't be a bother at all, so please! Let me stay!

Eh?

Umm... please wait!

And also, no matter what

I must give a message to Fukamachi Kazuo.

And I should get back to Mom's side as soon as possible.

After I meet him...

After I tell him the message...

My mom...

She might somehow open her eyes again.

That's why... I beg of you.

Please help me to find him.

Sorry, but I can't.

Go upstairs.

What are you doing?

See, it's as I thought.

What are you two doing?

What are you saying?

Hi.

Hello.

She's pretty.

So Ryouta, that's your type, eh?

Naaah.

Ah, no... I'm his cousin, Akari.

Ah... right.

She's my cousin, Akari.

She came from our hometown because she has exams here.

Then it's my lucky day! Do you currently have a boyfriend?

He's Kadoi. I'm Natsuko.

We're both actors in Ryouta's movie.

We live next door, so just ask if you need anything.

Ah!

Come see this, if you can.

Okay.

Later then.

Natsuko...

Natsuko...

Ah! Could it be...!

Eh?!

There she is!

Ichise Natsuko.

"She's the forever defiant, curse-like talent

number 1 in company connections for 5 years"

Ichise Natsuko.

That!

Say Yuuko-chan

from time to time, you can tell kids

that they have been "spoiled".

So she's in high school now.

Ah!

I should have asked for the name of her school.

Say, what did I become?

Would you know if there's a distinguished film director named Mizorogi Ryouta?

Film director...

Not really. I don't really watch movies so I don't know.

- I see. - Yeah.

Yu-ru-ka-ji...

Up next- Yu-ru-ka-ji...

Up next-

Minami Kousetsu and Kaguyahime's "Kandagawa"

Minami Kousetsu and Kaguyahime's "Kandagawa" What's your home address?

Dunno.

~With the red muffler~

What's that?

Eh? "Kandagawa"

~The bathhouse at the alley~

~Together...~

I want to take a bath.

I don't have a bathing room.

Eh?

You don't?!

Then let's go to the public bathhouse in the alley.

You can't. That won't open until the day after tomorrow.

Eh?

~Before my heart gets cold~

Wait... so you can't take a bath everyday?

They can't open everyday since it's winter.

Oh, so it's the problem of the season?

Sharing is enough.

But..

Eh? The corridor?

~You said that~

Whatever... ~That young time~

~That young time~

Why don't you get under the heater?

You might catch a cold.

Okay.

Sorry.

West Setagaya Establishment West Setagaya Middle School

It looks okay.

3C... 3C...

B... C... There, there, there.

Yoshiyama Kazuko.

There she is.

That's your mother?

Yes.

Now, where is Fukamachi Kazuo?

Fukamachi Kazuo...

Huh? He's not here.

Lemme take a look.

Looks like he's not here.

Hm?

But look.

Both of them are in 3rd year Section C.

Look at the class pins.

That's weird.

It doesn't look like a ghost photograph.

It's not.

Ah!

That's right.

Let's ask Mom directly.

Yoshiyama... Yoshiyama...

There.

Excuse us!

Excuse us!

Excuse us!

Huh?

Uncle Gorou?

Huh? Uncle?

Ah, I see! You're Yoshiyama-kun's cousin.

Aah... yeah...

Then... are you her big brother?

Eh? Yeah, kinda...

You don't look alike!

But it surprised me when you suddenly called me uncle.

Ah... sorry about that...

Umm... Kazuko-chan really talked about you a lot so I just blurted it out like that.

Eh? Yoshiyama-kun talks about me?

Umm... yeah...

I was actually going to meet her

but nobody seems to be at home.

Yoshiyama-kun transferred to Yokohama though.

Eh?

Yup.

Since when?

Around the time when she entered high school.

Even though she's your cousin, you didn't know?

No, you see, I haven't heard from her lately.

I see.

Kinda.

Ah.

Right.

Gorou-kun.

Hm?

Do you know this young man?

I haven't seen him before. But I had the same uniform.

I see.

Ah. Can I ask for Kazuko-chan's school and address?

Ah, yeah.

I don't know her exact address though.

My delivery ends at night so can you call me then?

Okay.

894-4141.

"Breathe, get drinks and drunk - Asakura Liquor Shop"

Later.

Later.

"Breathe, get drinks and drunk"?

Right.

We suddenly have free time.

Ah. Then, can you go with me for a bit?

Movie Research Society

Is this fine?

Ah! Ah! Damn!

Ah! Ah! Just what is this?

Umm... it's 2011's future city's flying car.

Start!

Bang!

Oh!

Title: "Planet of Light"

The Earth's rotation deviated and the gravity became faulty.

There were large scale changes in the Earth's crust.

Hiro's painting is a hanging hundred swallows and a cherry blossom tree in a wall.

When the cherry blossoms fully bloom, help will surely come.

They waited for help believing in that.

And then...

Bath time. Bath time. Bath time.

Oh~

Well, I'm going here.

Ah, I'm going here then.

It has the 70's painting so I am looking forward to it.

Ah~

Feel so good~

It's heaven!

It feels so good~

Hm?

- Bye. - Thank you for your patronage.

Ah~ Yes. Yes.

Ah~ There there.

Ah~ Feel so good!

Ah!

Thanks for waiting.

It really felt good.

Took you long enough.

It feels like even my heart got warm.

So cold...

Ah! Right.

What do you think of this?

So twee!

Natsuko-san lent this to me. Doesn't it suit me?

Twee...

Twee.

What's that word?

Eh?

What's that word?

Twee.

Ah! A real Kandagawa!

So there really is such a thing.

Huh? Ryouta?

Hm?

What?

So cold.

What is it?

You were captivated by me, weren't you?

No way in hell.

It's going to be a cold walk home.

Oh?

With this much people, we won't be able to spot her.

But there's no mistaking that she's here.

I'll just have to search harder.

Is that your mom?

Yeah.

Um... excuse me.

I apologize for suddenly calling you.

Um... I...

I'm actually searching for a young man.

His name is Fukamachi Kazuo.

Fukamachi Kazuo?

I think he was a classmate of yours.

Ah... from 3rd year, class C.

Is this me?

You know the young man beside you, right?

I don't know him.

I'm sorry.

Ah... No way...

I don't even remember when this picture was even taken.

Eh?

But...

But look, you were photographed together.

You have the same class pin.

Ah...

I'm sorry.

I'll just come back tomorrow.

If you remember something please tell me.

Thank you.

Even the person who asked for the favor doesn't know. We should just give up.

So it really is a ghost photograph.

There's no way it is.

She even went as far as to make an elixir to meet him.

Yeah. I guess so.

Say.

On our way home, let's pick something up along the way.

'kay?

Okay.

Gotetsu?

It's Ryouta.

Gotetsu.

Whoa! Whoa! Aah!

Whoa!

Whoa!

Eh?!

Eeh?!

Oh. So you're here.

Hey, Ryouta.

Hey, are all houses like this?

What the. Is she your girl?

Um... nope...

She's my cousin.

Akari.

Hi.

Akari's a good name.

I could make a good film if it's Akari.

But... please put some clothes on.

Eh?

Gotetsu is my cameraman.

Gotetsu.

In order to buy videography equipment he plays mahjong

and he's the Gotetsu that had been playing for 5 consecutive days without sleeping.

Nice to meet ya.

Ah, this is a good screenplay.

Isn't it?

Yeah.

In these parts we use cables.

Here, here.

Bang!

Running and rolling like this and then bang!

Run from here.

Bang! Ouch!

Ah! That hurt! Aah!

Are you alright?

I just really don't know!

You should do better here!

Is this screenplay made for girls?!

My dick won't get hard with this, you know!

Try giving me a boner!

Get hard! Get hard! Get hard!

That still won't give me a boner!

Give me a boner, son of a bitch!

Minami Saori!

Ah! Minami!

Aaa!

Saori-chan!

Whoa! Ah! My camera!

Camera!

Hey! A rag!

It got wet! It got wet! Wet!

Camera!

We need a rag!

Is this gonna be alright?!

Ah! Dammit!

Ryouta! Ryouta.

Come on, give it to me!

Give it! I said give it!

Don't touch it! Come on! Dammit!

Why the hell!

It got wet! It got wet!

I'm sorry! Sorry! Sorry!

Did you remember something?

I'm sorry if I can't be of help.

But... do I have anything to do with this?

With that young man in the picture...

Umm...

Kinda...

You're quite related to it...

Ah. Why did you transfer to a high school in Yokohama?

There is an opening at my father's work.

I want to get into a pharmacy school.

Then be accepted in a good private company.

Thank you for waiting.

Ah. When did you start to plan that?

During the spring of when I became a 3rd year.

It felt like it was a mission for me to study well and get into pharmacy school.

So it was at that time...

Ah.

Another thing...

There's something else I want to ask.

Umm...

This.

I found this at the house of someone I know.

Ah...

This is the picture Hasegawa-san took.

A friend who's a tutor knows him.

Do you know him?

Hasegawa?

Yes. Hasegawa Masamichi-san.

Ah. By chance, do you know him as Gotetsu-san?

Everyone calls him that.

Birth ~ Yoshiyama Akari

Hasegawa Masamichi

What are you doing here?

Ah.

What is your home like?

Hm? My home?

Yeah.

I have my parents and a sister. We're a family of four.

My old man runs a printing shop.

I see.

Then, has he said that you should succeed the shop?

Yeah.

Well...

The truth is he really wants me to succeed the shop.

I see.

Then he's supporting you.

He's a good father.

Yeah.

What about your home?

Mine?

Yeah.

As for me...

What's wrong?

Hm?

Ah, nothing.

Well, you see.

I don't have any memories of my father.

When I was small,

it was just my Mom and I from the start.

Besides...

Mom has always been by my side.

And it was just natural that I had no father.

Even though there were times that I felt sad about it.

I wonder how it would be like if I had a Dad.

I imagined it a lot.

Really thought about it.

Ah...

Sorry about that...

I just blurted out dull stuff like that.

Ah...

Can I have this?

Sure.

40,000.

So it's 1200 yen.

Things I can do.

Say.

Hm?

This can catch attention, right?

It will even be left for the future.

Eh?

You see, what if...

That Fukamachi guy is also someone from the future.

What if he doesn't really exist in this era.

Aaah. I see!

But, nah. That's just impossible.

Like you have the right to say that.

[Yomiuri Newspaper Company]

[Yomiuri Newspaper Company] Can't you please do something with 40,000 yen?

Can't you please do something with 40,000 yen?

As I already told you,

A first grade 20 character print costs 50,000.

I don't have a say on that.

Please do something!

We really need it.

If you don't, there will be a big problem in her future!

Eh?

Ah... that's right!

My future.

My future?

There's no mistake there, right?

We beg of you!

We beg you!

I understand. Let's do it with only 40,000.

This is a special case for now.

- Thank you very much! - Thank you very much!

It's okay. It's okay. Right?

This looks good.

Here you go.

Eh?

Okay.

Okay. Go and mix it.

Eh?

I'll eat this, then.

Go ahead.

Yummy.

Ramen! Ramen!

Next is the ramen.

Tomi! Tomi! Are you alright?

I'm really, really scared here!

I'm leaving you the complex model communication apparatus! Okay?

You two, imagine that you're in zero gravity.

Right! Floating! Like floating!

Yeah! That's right!

This... how do I describe it... umm...

I think it would be better if you slow down while moving. Like your right foot...

Then, how many will do?

Slowly, slowly. There!

How many rolls?

It's five.

Five.

That's it. That's it. Not going up like that, going up.

Move further.

That's right. Good!

Then let's go!

Take one!

Ready!

Start!

Boom!

Ryouta! Ryouta.

Oh. Thanks.

Whoopsie.

Hey, here, give me that.

Okay. Got it.

Thanks.

You aren't really cousins, are you?

How can you tell?

Just by looking.

You know I...

After the filming of this movie, I'll be going to America with a scholarship.

To train as a cameraman.

You probably don't notice his troubles but I'll leave those to you.

If you were asked not to go, what will you do?

Hm?

If she...

...asked you not to go, what will you do?

There's no way she'll ask that.

But what if she asked you.

She'll probably say that I should go.

She's strong if you look at her.

Rather than saying "Don't go"

she'll say "Go" while giving me a pat on the back.

Gotetsu! Come here a sec!

Hm?

About the first cut,

the camera didn't zoom in.

I'm thinking this shot with the camera would be better.

Hm? Where?

Like I said, in the first cut.

First cut.

It's coming from the top.

It's coming from the top. I have no choice but to link the direct transmission data.

I have no choice but to link the direct transmission data.

Is that true, Hiro!?

Even if I'm waiting for death,

I don't want to regret anything!

Ah!

Are we going to die?!

No way!

Aaah!

Cut! Cut! Cut!

Ah, wait! Hey!

Haru...

Farewell...

Cut!

Okay!

Okay!

Sempai!

We can completely end the shoot now right?

We're done!

Good job, everyone!

Good job! Thank goodness!

Good job! Good job!

Good job! Thank you! Thank you!

Thank you!

Don't you dare cry.

I'm not crying!

Kazuko-san.

What if...

Gotetsu-san says that he's going far away?

Another strange question.

Is that about him going to America?

Ah...

No, besides that.

I want him to do his best.

I want to support him in what he likes to do.

That's because I want to give him even a bit of courage.

So you love him.

Yup.

The part where Haru says "Ah!" was really good.

That was good.

What will you do next?

I'm going to go and return the equipment.

Can I go with you?

I'm fine with it, but it's just an equipment shop.

Then, I'll go with you.

Okay.

Men in the '70s are troublesome.

So tomorrow is the publication of the notice on the newspaper.

Yup.

I hope he finds out.

Yeah.

Everyone is is probably waiting far away.

That's right.

This song...

Takurou?

So this song came from this era.

Hey.

Hm?

Why?

Why did you help me?

Why ask all of a sudden?

No reason.

Well...

If a pretty girl like me asked for a favor

it's natural not to refuse, huh?

In the future, you will become a big shot director.

Marry a beautiful lady.

Then have adorable kids. That's what I think.

But you know...

The you in that time,

I'll just be...

...someone in your past, huh?

I just think...

Even though if I came from the future....

That sounded a bit strange, huh?

I'm going out for a bit.

Ryouta?

Gotetsu!

Sorry coming out of the blue.

So? What's up?

Can you lend me your camera?

I want to change just the last scene.

What is it?

I want to shoot just this last scene in my own way, no matter what.

I'll really appreciate it.

I beg you.

Got it.

I'll lend you one.

Thank you.

No prob.

There it is!

Fukamachi Kazuo. Come to the middle school's laboratory on March 2, Saturday.

Eh?

I'll be the one in it?

Ready...

Start!

I wonder if the cherry blossoms here are still blooming 36 years later.

Yup.

They're still blooming.

Only this part didn't change.

When your era comes...

Yeah.

It would be nice to stand here and watch the cherry blossoms bloom here like we are now.

That's right.

Though at that time, would it still be alright even if I'm a 56 year old geezer?

Receiving!

Receiving?

Ah...

I'm saying that I'm accepting what we just discussed.

Receiving... Accepting...

Receiving.

Receiving.

Received.

Ken. I want you to check on this.

What's this?

Yes. Ah...

Ah...

Ah please hold on.

Ryouta!

Phone.

It's your mother.

Hello?

Ah. Welcome back.

Hey, did you get the film?

When will it be done?

Huh?

Ah, I just can't wait to see it.

I was wondering when it would be complete.

Ryouta?

My old man collapsed.

It was a stroke.

It was because of overwork.

The truth is, he was against me going to Tokyo.

After the effects of the oil crisis

it all went downhill for the factory

and it became impossible to overturn the situation.

I already knew that but I still didn't go home.

I set aside the struggles of my dad

just because it felt natural for me to leave home.

It's not your fault that your father collapsed.

Because... he supported you, right?

Even so... I...

...kept on filming movies without a care.

What the fuck was I doing?

Hey...

Even if it's not right away...

Even if time passes!

You can still complete this, right?!

Like a person from the future can understand it.

Ah! Ah! Hot!

Hot! Hot! Hot!

Ouch!

Ah!

Eh?!

So you were the one that called me?

Could it be...

You are Fukamachi Kazuo-san?

Who are you?

A...

I'm Akari.

Yoshiyama Akari.

I'm Yoshiyama Kazuko's daughter.

Yoshiyama Kazuko?

Who made the time traveling elixir?

My mother.

Yoshiyama-kun made it?

Yes.

So that she could meet you.

But...

She got into an accident.

She's now in a hospital.

That's why...

I took her place and came here for her.

What's her condition?

I see...

That truth is...

I should have leapt to April 1972.

I made a mistake.

But...

Why?

Now...

You are not a high school student.

I...

...came from the year 2698.

2698?

We received news that someone has leapt through time and is searching for Fukamachi Kazuo,

with an elixir that should have not been developed yet before 2010.

In order to confirm that, I followed the traces of your time leap and came here.

News?

Newspaper.

It showed the name of missing person.

My real name is... Ken Sogoru.

Ken Sogoru.

But...

Until the year 2698...

So it did reach you.

Sogoru.

Amazing.

Ah.

That's right.

So even if her memories were erased...

She still searched for me?

She said "The promise hasn't been erased."

Please tell me.

What was the promise between you and my mother?

I was in the middle of an experiment with the time leaping elixir when I came to this place.

The truth is, I forgot to bring an extra elixir to go back.

Until I finished making that elixir

I existed in this era and lived as Fukamachi Kazuo.

During that time... I met her.

She accidentally inhaled the elixir's scent.

Since then, she gained a small amount of the ability to leap through time.

That scent...

...is this lavender.

And during that time, she fell in love with me...

But I had to return to the future no matter what.

And I had no choice but to erase her memories of my existence.

Because that is the rule.

Someday...

...will you see me again?

Yes.

Not as Fukamachi Kazuo but as a completely different person.

I will definitely meet the future you.

Even if my memories are erased...

My heart will always remember this promise.

You have finished the mission.

With this, you have no choice but to go home.

My mission now is to erase your memories of this and the memories of the people you met here.

Please wait.

There is just one person I want to meet.

After I meet him, I will return to the future.

I understand.

I will wait until the evening.

I'll be waiting at the university laboratory where we first met. - Akari

I finally delivered my Mom's message.

It would have been better if I met him too.

I'm sure you would be surprised.

It's completely not like you imagined.

I will be taking the night bus tonight.

After I arrive tomorrow morning, I'll call you.

Tomorrow.

Ah...

Tomorrow's my birthday.

I forgot.

Just what is that?

Right?

This.

I want you to hold on to this.

What's this?

The movie's film.

There's no sound yet though.

I'll be going back quickly so...

I will make sure to complete this movie.

When I come back...

Let's watch the movie together.

It's my birthday gift to you.

By the time you come back...

...I won't be here anymore.

Thank you.

Don't lose the film.

Excuse me.

Sorry about that.

Akari-san?

Ah...

Gorou... Gorou-chan.

Yeah.

What's with the luggage?

Ah. I'm going on a ski trip.

I forgot my bus ticket at home.

There's only 20 minutes left before the bus leaves.

Hey, wait, wait.

From where?

Eh? Shinjuku.

Eh? Where is your house again?

Futagotamagawa.

Wait...

It's obvious that you won't make it.

Ah dammit! I was really looking forward to it!

Well, where were you planning on going?

Akita's Noshiro skiing place.

Akita.

Akita.

I will be taking the night bus tonight.

A bus going to Noshiro Akita prefecture had an accident late at night.

It was the 4th bus going north.

On the dawn of March 3rd, it fell off a cliff.

Including the crew and the passengers, a total of 38 valuable lives were taken away.

You know I...

I was planning on riding that bus.

Tomorrow morning

after I arrive, I'll call you.

I'll be going back quickly.

Akari-san.

What's wrong?

Ryouta...

Wait! Akari-san?!

Advising passengers of the bus headed for the foot of the mountain to Numazu

the riding place has now been changed to the west entrance inside the rotary.

The special bus has arrived at bus stop number 26.

Excuse me.

Ah!

Excuse me. Where is the bus going to Akita?

The bus going to Akita is over there.

Wait! Your ticket!

I'll go down right away!

Ryouta?

Ryouta.

Ryouta.

Ryouta?

Ma'am, we'll get delayed.

Where is the bus going to Akita?

Well, only this.

The one going to Noshiro is there.

Noshiro

Noshiro

Noshiro

Ryouta!

Ryouta!

Ryouta!

Ryouta!

Ryouta! Ryouta!

Let me go! Let me go!

People from the future cannot change the past.

Then...

I won't be returning to the future!

I will stay here!

Ryouta!

Ryouta!

Ryouta!!

Ryouta!

Ryouta!

Wait!

Ryouta!

Wait!

Ryouta!

Let me go!

No matter how unfortunate the accident was, we cannot change history.

Let me go! Stop the time!

Ryouta!

Ryouta!

I'm sorry...

Ryouta, I'm sorry...

I will now erase your memory.

Today, 36 years ago on March 3, 1974,

Let's travel through time.

A bus going to Noshiro Akita prefecture had an accident late at night.

Passengers going home and many ski passengers who rode the bus...

So you received my message.

Yes.

And you've come here as Fukamachi Kazuo.

Thank you.

She is really like you.

Again, someday...

...in the future.

Mom!

Mom?

Mom!

Mom!

My mother woke up!

Mom, you know me?

Akari.

Akari...

To be sure, we will do an MRI scan.

But with her current condition, everything seems fine.

Thank you very much.

Akari.

Hm?

Somehow...

I smell a nostalgic scent.

Nostalgic scent?

Yeah.

Hm?

This?

That's a lavender.

Who placed it here, I wonder?

But...

It's a good scent.

Here.

Hm?

Hm?

Yes, Yoshiyama residence.

This is Hasegawa.

Are you Akari?

Yes.

How's your Mom?

She has regained consciousness so she's fine now.

Oh. I see.

U-umm...

Hm?

I want to ask you something.

Doing good?

So you're going to watch an 8mm film.

Yeah.

I see.

Who's the director?

What's the title?

"Planet of Light"

What is it?

Well, there is that title...

Something we filmed a long time ago with an old friend has the same title as that.

Ah...

Then, I'm going to borrow this film projector.

Okay. Can you carry it?

Yeah. I'm good.

Ah, okay.

A friend with a car is coming here.

Ah, I see.

See you then.

See you.

Thank you.

Motomiya... are you sure you know how to use that?

Leave it to me!

Okay. Okay. Okay.

I'm turning it off.

Okay. Here we go.

Okay.

Planet of Light

What is this?

Please don't let the last cherry blossom be just a painting.

Director Mizorogi Ryouta

What the hell was that? I don't understand a thing!

Whoopsie.

Akari? Why are you crying?

I wonder...

I don't know...

This.

It was kept inside.

So that we can watch the cherry blossoms bloom in the future.

[Notes] Shouwa is the period of Japanese history corresponding to the reign of the Shouwa Emperor, Hirohito, from December 25, 1926 to January 7, 1989. Shouwa 47 is 1972.

[Notes] Heisei is the the current era name in Japan. It started on January 8, 1989, the first day after the death of the reigning Emperor, Hirohito and where his son, Akihito, succeeded to the throne. Ryouta mistakenly read Heisei to Hirasei because of first kanji of Heisei can also be read like that.

[Notes] Unlike in English calender where there are names in the months, Japanese calendar don't have names in the months but rather have numbers. That's why Akari easily got mixed up the year and month when she time leaped.

[Notes] There are some colloquial terms used in the movie that during 1974, the terms used by Akari are not familiar to Ryouta. Keitai/Cellphone literally means handheld in the 70s; Otaku/Geek wasn't a common word and easily mistaken as home or house; Also the Gekikawa/Excessively cute/Twee dress that Akari was showing off; And the expression ukeru/received.
