Original subtitles

What are you doing?

Just pretending to be a fish.

Every morning having nothing but herring...

Oni-chan!

Don't keep repeating the same thing.

"We've got debts to pay." We've got debts to pay.

You keep repeating the same thing yourself.

If you keep doing that no one will want you.

What? Idiot.

Jun, the exam you're taking today will determine which college you get into?

Do your best.

I don't think you'll have any problems though.

Jun-nichan! You'd better get going!

Don't forget anything!

Don't forget!

Your obento!

Obento! Obento!

Jun-nichan obento!

Be careful! Especially of cars!

Well, I guess I better get ready.

Where are you going?

Just going out for a bit.

A bit where?

Ah, well... diving.

Alone?

What?

Sounds rather fishy to me.

That's it?

MorningWait long?

First, the basic rules will be explained to you

and then after that there'll be a lesson in the pool.

What's wrong?

Not feeling well?

Just feeling nervous I guess.

You've never swum before have you?

But not to worry, I know that diving school pretty well.

Alright, HI teach you something special. Put your hand out.

Spread your hand out. Now follow me.

First, write the word "hito". Write it and then drink it.

But you're spilling it a little bit...

Then... it's great.

Not like that... Ah, it's great.

Ah, it's great.

Still worried? Ah, still worried.

I've got a charm. You don't have to worry.

Here, charm for protection while traveling

Have you thought about it? The baby...

Yes, I said leave it to me. I'll get the money somehow.

Money?

It takes about 100,000 yen for the abortion.

It's better to get it done as soon as possible.

If Natsuo-san finds out, we'll be done for.

There's no chance of having the baby guess.

We're still high school students.

That's true.

It'll be fine, I'll figure something out.

Here we go!

Here we go...

Now explain to you about ear pressure.

When you take an elevator in a tall building, do you feel your ears pop?

The same thing happens underwater.

Ah, you're conducting a class? I didn't know, sorry.

I'm really sorry.

Sorry, this doesn't really fit right.

Sorry for interrupting your class.

Those of you who are ready may enter the pool.

As explained earlier, try breathing through the regulator.

Let's go in too. Put on your mask.

What's wrong?

What?

I don't think I can after all.

What are you afraid of? Let's go.

Come on in, you can touch the floor.

It's ok, you can touch the floor.

... can't... I can't.

Here.

I guess it was too much for you

Haven't ever swum before, I guess it's scary.

It's ok, nothing to worry about.

Thanks.

was too pushy. I won't force you again.

I'm sorry. Let's go change.

You're wrong

Hm?

It's not your fault. I...

I...

Please don't cry.

My father said never to make a girl cry.

But... uhm... ...

Bye.

Thanks.

Bye. See you again.

I'm home.

Welcome back. Where did you go?

I met some of my friends from Tandai.

You should be relaxing at home on Sundays.

Must be tired from work.

I'm fine. The checkup results were fine too.

Who were they?

Your friends from Tandai.

I don't think you know them. Let me do it.

It's ok, go sit down.

But... It's ok, go sit down.

But... It's ok.

It's ok.

From tomorrow, I'll be coming back late for a while

so I would like to have dinner with you today.

Another case?

Yes, it's a difficult case.

Get me a hot pad! Quick! It's hot!

Don't! Wait!

It's hot! It's hot!

You're right.

Oni-chan.

Thank you.

Not done yet?

No, need to get these three done by tomorrow.

I see

So where do you go today?

Didn't I tell you already? I went diving.

That's strange, usually there's the smell of the sea.

Hm? What smell of the sea?

The smell of the saltwater and the sun mixed together.

Whenever you go diving there's always that smell. I love that.

Your sense of smell is good.

By today I don't smell it.

It's time you went to bed.

Yes, yes.

Oni-chan.

What is it?

I...

Nothing, don't work too hard. Goodnight.

Good night.

Hey look at this!

Don't you think it's nice?

Ah?

What's with those fingernails?

Get them off... Also...

Lately there's been a bunch of robberies by a gang of bikers

targeting old ladies around banks.

Please be on a lookout everyone. Understand?

Yes.

Matsumura-sama.

Yes.

Here's your cash withdrawal, your bank book, and seal.

Although they say using the ATM is more convenient, I still don't know how to use it.

You're welcome here at the counter any time.

Thank you.

It was expensive to do too.

Hiroto, go.

That old lady?

What are you afraid of? You need money don't you?

That's true but...

Hurry and hop on. That's true but...

Matsumura-sama.

You forgot your seal.

Ah! Sorry for the trouble.

Thank you very much.

Get ready.

can't.

What? I can't hear you!

I can't do it!

Idiot!

Matsumura-san!

Are you alright?

It hurts... hurts...

Have you heard about the robberies committed by high school students?

Just this morning.

These...

are some of the high school kids that hang out frequently at a game center nearby.

Anyone look like the criminals?

They had helmets on and it happened so quickly.

I thought so.

Thanks to Katase-kun, the attempted robbery failed.

However, how should we go about dealing with this case?

We're going to have more patrols around the vicinity

in the hopes that we'll get the criminals as soon as possible.

Please do your best.

There's news from the hospital.

How is she?

Just a slight sprain.

I see.

Also, the kids from the game center

have been taken to the police station for questioning.

Alright. Let's go back.

Sorry to have bothered you when you're so busy.

It's alright.

Sorry to disturb you.

But having seen you working now, I don't feel so worried.

Thank you.

See you again.

Shinoda Cycle.

Oh, the police?

You frequent that game center very often don't you?

Excuse me, but I'm a customer there.

What's with that attitude!

It's alright.

just want to know where you were at the time of the attempted robbery.

What were you doing at about 2 PM today?

At the game center. That's why I was brought in here.

I see. So you were there?

Yeah..

That's strange.

According to the game center employees, they said you disappeared for a while.

Is that so.

Don't act dumb!

I didn't do it!

Oi.

Oi!

Getting you to come here, sorry.

Do you understand? I'm the only one running the shop!

If I'm not there work can't get done!

But I didn't want to get my parents to come down here.

Did you do it?

Well?

You think I did it?

You're wrong! I didn't do it!

I told you long ago, that if you hung around with those guys,

nothing good will come out of it.

In any case, I'll give you a ride home. Get in.

After that, make sure you talk to your parents about it.

You told my parents?

But of course!

The ones who worry the most about you in this world are your parents.

Go back and have a good talk with them.

You don't realize the value of parents, do you?

You're supposed to be taking the college entrance exam next year. Are you even studying?

But then again, I don't have much hope in you.

And you, what are you doing?

Sorry

It's got nothing to do with Mom.

If you get caught by the police, you can deal with it yourself.

It's your life.

However, if my company finds out about this, how do you think it will affect my position?

Don't create trouble for me.

So that's the way it is. You're more worried about your position

in the company than me.

Don't be cocky!

You can't even get into a decent high school.

Sent you to a cram school, got you good tutors,

and yet you end up being a dropout.

Having a son like you, it's pathetic.

I don't like being your son either.

What?

If I had known I'd have you for a father, I wouldn't have come into this world!

Unfortunately, kids don't get a chance to choose their parents!

Hiroto!

Let him go!

Hiroto!

Hi. Sorry I scared you.

What's wrong?

Nothing.

I'll come down.

No, it's ok. If Natsuo finds out, I'll get into trouble.

Did something happen?

Nothing. I just wanted to see you that's all.

Really?

Yes.

What are you doing?

Oni-chan.

Get inside!

Hiroto! Did you talk it over with your parents?

Well...

They just got mad at me so I...

So you just flew out of the house.

I don't want to see them again. All they think about is keeping up appearances.

They won't even listen to my side of the story.

Even if they asked, I don't even feel like answering.

So they're in the wrong.

Stop being a brat!

But... Stop being a brat!

But...

Who do you think sends you

to school and feeds you?

I thought you were at least a better person than that.

Don't ever come back here again!

I'm coming in!

Chika, have you been seeing Hiroto?

When did it start?

We started seeing each other when I entered high school.

That Hiroto...

Oni-chan, Hiroto is not as bad as you think.

He cuts school and doesn't like to study,

but when he discovers something that he wants to do, I'm sure he'll do his best.

He can't!

Especially the way he is right now.

He's just running away from his parents, running away from school.

On top of that, he's hanging around with bad company.

Why do you think he got me to get him from the police station today?

The group he's with are involved with purse snatching.

Although the attempt failed today, they targeted an old lady.

Hiroto wouldn't do something like that.

You don't know that!

Oni-chan!

Whatever it is, he's connected to those petty thieves.

Do you think I'd let my precious sister go around with someone like that?

I've told him never to come back here again.

So don't ever see him again.

Understand Chika?

Chika.

Hiroto!

Morning

I spent the night on a bench in the park. That was the worse.

Natsuo found out about us.

Eh?

Ah!

What did Natsuo-san say?

Just like expected.

You had nothing to do with the trouble yesterday did you?

Hiroto?

I did it. I needed to get the money for the abortion somehow.

Why? Why did you do that?

But I couldn't do it!

When I saw the lady's face I couldn't put my hand out.

It's fine, you don't have to believe me.

I believe you Hiroto!

You're not someone who bullies the weak.

I remember in grade school when Jun-nichan got bullied by the older kids because of his hearing problem.

You used to protect him.

You'd say "If you're going to bully him, you'll have to beat me up first!"

That was my line.

They were taller and bigger, but you would still challenge them.

Yeah, I was always good at fighting.

But you always lost.

Totally uncool huh?

You were cool.

I thought you were really cool.

I was only in third grade but

I wanted to be your bride.

That's because I know your good side too.

Except that you're kind of incompetent at the moment.

You'd better get to class.

I'm cutting classI want to be with you today.

Welcome.

Sorry I'm late.

just got here too.

That's your uniform at the bank?

Yes.

Does it look weird?

What a pity.

If that skirt was 15 cm shorter, you'd get a lot more male customers.

Seiji-san!

It suits you. How about lunch?

Excuse me, two set lunches please.

I wanted to talk to you about this, your heart transplant.

You've thought about it haven't you?

Yes, well...

It's about time you register yourself as a recipient.

But I'm fine right now.

Right now you are

But your heart is slowly becoming enlarged like a balloon.

You won't know when it's going to burst.

My dad approves of this operation too.

I'll read the material first.

Lunch set.

Let's eat.

Itadakimasu.

Do you know what my dad's intentions were asking me to come back?

Arranged marriage.

Arranged marriage?

Yeah. On top of that, she's from a hospital, a doctor herself. No way it's going to work.

You don't like it if the other part's a doctor?

I prefer uniforms other than the white coat

Like stewardesses, policewomen, or high school girls.

High school girls?

Ah, that's a uniform too.

Eh? Ah.

What are you doing this Sunday? If you're free would you like to go out?

Sorry, but I've got something on this Sunday.

see. I just got rejected.

Sorry, leaving you behind.

It's fine with me.

You understand right? If that bum Hiroto comes by, don't let him into the house.

Aniki...

You're also her brother, keep an eye on her.

It's troublesome at a hospital but at this place it'll be ok.

get the money in a couple of days.

You don't have to hurry.

But the earlier the better. There'll be problems once it becomes noticeable.

But that quick...

I said leave it to me. You don't have to worry about a thing.

I'll call you back.

That was Hiroto wasn't it.

Nojust a friend from school

ok, you don't have to lie to me.

Jun-nichan

It's not that Aniki hates Hiroto.

If Hiroto takes things a little more seriously, Aniki would be more understanding too.

I don't think oni-chan will ever forgive Hiroto.

There's really no diving atmosphere in a pool.

The scenery's just walls.

Sorry, keeping me company.

Don't worry about it

So you'll just watch today too? There's no need to rush things

Look over there. When you get used to it, you fall backwards into the water.

It's easier to dive that way.

Flunked, flunked. Did you see that?

I'm always sitting here whenever it's time for lessons in the pool.

I want to swim just like everyone else.

I'm also troublesome to you, aren't I?

I guess I...

Don't say you're going to give up.

You wanted to try didn't you?

Also, you said you wanted to see it.

Snow falling in the ocean?

Let's go see it together someday.

It'd be better in the summer. In winter, snow's normal.

That's why I'd like to go see what can't be seen, summer snow.

It'll be overwhelming.

Let's get going as well.

What's wrong?

I want to try.

Oi!

Oii!

Why did you do that?

Were you surprised?

You scared me!

The water's not that cold.

You're wearing this aren't you? Wearing this, are you alright?

Yes.

Are you alright?

Don't be so reckless!

Jumping into the pool without knowing how to swim.

Don't ever do that again, Yuki.

Can... I call you that?

Why do you dive?

I wanted to do something with Jun.

With your brother?

It's quiet in the sea.

I wanted to know what it was like to be in a world without sound.

see.

It's a really, kind world.

But, why did you suddenly just jump in like that?

You were terrified before that.

I wanted to see it too.

Together with you. That summer snow.

What should one say at a time like this?

Perhaps...

There's no need to say anything.

"There's no need to say anything."

I'm back! "There's no need to say anything."

I'm home.

Welcome back

Where's Chika?

She's not feeling well.

Oh.

And that Hiroto didn't come by?

Aniki, leave them alone. If it's fine with Chika then it's ok.

It's for Chika's sake.

You're always like this. You're always forcing your own opinions on others.

Trust Chika a little.

I do. But the problem is that bum Hiroto.

I think you like Hiroto.

You say a lot of things, but I don't think you hate him.

Right now, I'm not going to let him have his way.

He'll run away from Chika too.

His parents, his future, he's not even considering any of it.

Do you think I'd entrust Chika to someone like that?

Sorry, I'm late.

Hiroto, you'll stay with me until the operation's over, won't you?

I'm scared.

couldn't get the money.

Ahh!

In this world there are people wallowing in money.

But there are none around me.

How am I going to get money. No way.

I guess the only way is...

Don't worry. get the money somehow. It'll be ok, don't worry.

Chika?

Oi!

What are you doing!

Forget it! Oi!

Chika!

If I do this, the baby will die! It's cold! The baby will die!

You don't have to worry about anything.

Come back!

If I don't do this,

you'll come up with some bad idea to get the money!

I won't!

I won't let you do that!

I don't want to force you into doing bad things for my sake!

That's why.. that's why I can only do this!

Chika.

Chika!

Chika!

I can't be counted onI can only cause you pain.

But I'm glad that I love you.

It's like Natsuo-san said, we shouldn't have seen each other.

Don't say that.

I'm sorry Chika.

love you... love you.

Chika.

Hiroto, the baby just moved.

Eh?

Really?

I felt it.

It's alive, our baby.

It's living right here right now.

I want to have the baby. I want to have your baby.

Hiroto!

Yuki-chan!

Thanks for coming

This way.

Their parents come visit but

due to work or having to look after younger children,

these kids are left alone after dinner.

You were the same too.

Well...

I was wondering if you could come once a week, just to see the kids.

Only if you can though.

Can I do it, I wonder.

Of course you can, you're their senpai.

They'll understand your feelings of wanting

them to get better faster, to live.

The white cat became sort of like an aunt.

The little cat purred

thinking that he wanted to live together with the black cat forever.

One day....

Welcome, be with you in a minute.

Okay...

What's wrong? What happened?

Oni-chan. I need to talk to you.

Something important.

What is it that's so important?

Umm...

Umm...

What is it? Just say it!

Oni-chan, don't get mad, please listen.

What is it?

I'm... pregnant.

I want to have the baby. Hiroto's baby.

Bastard!

Stop it Oni-chan! Stop it! Bastard!

Stop it Oni-chan! Stop it!

What have you done to my sister!

Please let us get married!

Marry?

I'll quit school and start working! I'll find a job and start working!

I'll make Chika and the baby happy!

Please let us get married! Please!

You can't even take care of yourself.

What marriage? What happiness?

Stop fooling around!

Stop it!

Don't blame Hiroto! I was the one who said I wanted to have the baby!

I know. The both of us are still high school students.

Having this baby would cause a lot of trouble for both you and Hiroto's parents.

It'll be tough.

That's why we had no intention of having the baby.

But... If that's the case...

The baby's already living inside of me.

Hiroto's and my baby.

Hiroto's promised me that we'll bring this baby up together.

Hiroto and I will do our best together, even with the baby.

You can't, you're only 17.

I can try!

Having a baby at that age, what will Dad think about it?

Don't you think it's shameful!

There's nothing to be ashamed of!

I love Hiroto!

I'm serious about this!

Are you really serious?

I'm serious!

No matter how much you're against this, my feelings will not change.

marry Hiroto and have this baby.

It's got nothing to do with you!

Calm down Aniki! Calm down!

Do you think I can be calm!

Hey, don't you go losing heart, baby

There's nothing to worry about

Just keep going, as strong as always. Get it on

Yesterday, I was a mess

And you were just striking out

But we had searched for that huge, Oh! Summer time

Yo! Let's taste the summer, beneath the sun...

Smile! More, more!

Yo! Yesterday's mistakes and tomorrows blunders

Scrounge and fuss over them

Yo! Let's be reborn beneath the sun

Let summer come! Moremore!

Yo! Let's take our messed up problems

And kiss them bye-bye to th the blue sky

It's alright, the world's

still spinning. Oh my shine

Because you'll give me tomorrow
