Original subtitles

"Next is a story about awards given to military dogs."

Among those army dogs,

There are many which were raised in your own homes.

Among those dogs raised in homes...

Teru had been energetically assisting soldiers on the front.

Teru?

Teru! It's Teru! Teru's in the news!

Determined to cheer Misato up,

Hanako had made the name of the army dog

To be Teru in the script of the news.

That's the end of Children's Newspaper.

This is JOAK Broadcasting Tokyo.

That wasn't what was written in the script, was it?

Uh... Teru? And Terugo?

Even if there's a problem,

I do not want to be involved in any way.

Well, until then. Farewell.

Miss Muraoka. I have to speak with you.

Yes...

"From here,"

"Your story begins,"

"The road goes on and on."

"If the rainbow-coloured rain pours down,"

"The sky will come alive."

"Behind your radiant smile,"

"There's a sorrowful sound."

"Next to each other with the present,"

"Like this is sweet."

"If we clasped hands, it would be warm,"

"If you hate it, we'll go our own ways."

"One by one, you'll become your own,"

"The road goes on."

You said things that weren't in the script just then, didn't you?

The dog's name, Terugo.

Yes, I'm very sorry.

Until now,

Even if you changed the expressions for the children to better understand,

You haven't changed the reading like you did today.

Why did you add Terugo?

There was no way she could tell him,

It was all to cheer up her daughter.

I'm truly very sorry.

Even if it's news for children, you can't bend the truth.

It is a broadcast.

As well, the government's control has become all the more tighter.

You understand that too, right?

If you change the script after approval by the Ministry...

What?

..Chief Urushibara.

How many times have we said that

You must not change the approved script?!

If it's discovered that we altered the script as we wish,

My neck will be...

Every member of the broadcast would have their neck on the line!

What of the director?

He was in the middle of a meeting, so I don't think he heard.

I see...

I'll inform him.

Miss Muraoka,

It seems you don't understand the situation of our radio station!

Do you?

We have to cooperate with the government's policies!

You're probably not interested in that kind of world at all though.

No, that's not true.

A woman's mind

Is all about the family and children.

They live without taking notice of anything else!

You might say that,

But the family isn't just the concern of women,

Certainly it's for all society.

Then I want you to consider our station's position as well.

For the sake of the children who look forward to your stories,

Please continue on with the program.

I'm truly very sorry. I'll be more careful from now.

Really, why a woman...

I'm home.

Welcome home, Mum! Teru's well!

Teru's doing great!

He went to the war and is helping the soldiers,

So his name became Terugo!

It's a more important name than Teru!

Today, your brother told Misato...

He did what?

He said Teru's not coming back,

And Misato was crying.

..And then?

But, when she heard the broadcast, she felt completely better.

She thinks Terugo is Teru.

Even if it's news for children, you can't bend the truth.

It is a broadcast.

She was in such high spirits tonight, saying 'Teru, Teru!'

That she slept quickly.

Hanako.

Truthfully...

The army dogs mentioned in today's broadcast...

There weren't any names given to them.

I added Terugo on my own.

I did something inexcusable to the children listening.

I'm sure if you hadn't said Terugo,

The children of other families, with dogs which were taken away,

Would've been overjoyed.

"Our dog is being recognised on the front too."

Yeah...

But, when Misato imagines Teru,

She truly has a wonderful smile.

It makes her eyes sparkle.

Hanako, you gave Misato a lovely gift today.

I wonder if I did...

I think so.

..Whatever happens to the world,

I just want to protect these children's dreams.

Yeah.

In every age, children have beautiful dreams.

Hanako swore in her heart that wouldn't be taken away.

Yes, this is Seirinsha.

It's Udagawa Mitsuo.

Miss Udagawa! How do you do.

I have something to tell you.

Please come to Kayo's shop at three.

Heh... Today at three?

Don't forget.

Excuse me.

How do you do? Oh, Daigo.

Did an invitation from Miss Udagawa

Reach you as well?

Yeah, just then.

Oh, radio lady! How do you do!

How do you do!

Hey, Daigo.

We've seen aircraft here before, haven't we?

Yeah.

Hana.

With the progress being made on these new aircraft,

Will they usher in a time of peace?

Or will they lead the world further into war and misery?

How will humankind use these airplanes?

For peace, or for destruction?

I've been thinking about Principal Blackburn's words lately.

"Peace, or war?"

"That is the issue which looms over us,"

"And we must think about it carefully."

Sis, here.

How do you do, Hana? You too, Daigo.

Ren, you're here too?

Yes, I received an invitation over telegram.

I wonder if she's getting married?

My, a wedding notice? That would be special!

Although, Miss Udagawa is wearing simple clothes today.

If you would then.

On this occasion,

Miss Hasebe Nagisa was picked to recommend various individuals.

I will be going to the Chinese mainland as part of the Pen Corps.

'Pen Corps?'

Miss Udagawa will go to the front as a war correspondent.

I decided as soon as I was offered.

Witnessing everything as part of the Japanese army

In a once in a lifetime opportunity!

Please cover and write all about

Those soldiers risking their lives and fighting for us!

Yes!

Miss Udagawa Mitsuo, banzai!

Banzai!

The great changes of the period had begun.

Until then, farewell.

What will happen to today's Children's Newspaper?

..In the West Pacific Ocean, engaged American and British forces.

Stop!

How do you do?

What are you doing?!

I won't lie down against the waves of the times.

We'll be friends forever.
