MILLION DOLLAR MAN

What?

Finger. Finger.

What do you want?

"Kazuo Okura"

What the hell?!

Why'd you add me?

Delete me, you die.

Ignore my messages, you die.

"This is Akira"

What's up?

She used my finger.

S-So m-much for f-fingerprint s-security.

I'm not laughing.

Enjoying yourself?

Kind of.

Tokyo Tower looks best from a distance.

E-Ever been to the top?

Madoka wants to go there.

She prefers it to the Skytree.

She's got taste.

Really?

Let's drink. G-Gotta celebrate.

T-Two of a kind.

Th-These shoes, a-and us.

Nicely put.

Drink up! Drink up!

Welcome, Kazuo.

Tsukumo?!

"When I woke up, my 300 million yen was gone.”

"Tsukumo Koga"

"So was my best friend."

"I'm trying to find Tsukumo"

Kazuo,

right?

"This is Akira"?

Just Akira.

For you.

Thanks.

I really don't know though.

I only went yesterday 'cause of Yumi.

Oh.

Could you introduce me to Yumi?

I doubt she'll know.

She got sick and didn't come.

She was invited by somebody too.

So you partied at the home
of a complete stranger?

You only go to parties of people you know?

That's normal.

Bullshit.

You don't go to people's parties.

That's obvious.

So Tsukumo's...

...the founder of BuyCome?

The auction app.

Yeah, that's him. So you do know him.

Not directly.

Do I know someone from BuyCome?

This guy.

Ex-CTO, Momose.

"Million Dollar Man 100"

I know him.

Go for it! Go! Go! Go! Go!

What the hell was that!?

Momose?

I can't deal with this!

Momose, are you okay?

Akira? Long time no see.

Like hell I'm okay! I got carried away.

100 million. 100 million.

100 million?

You lost that?!

I won that. Now what?

I wasted my luck. Now I'm gonna have
an accident on the way home.

Kidding.

Dammit, don't scare me like that!

Nobody hates winning 100 million!

Hey mister. Champagne and your best sushi.

I'll take that.

Your jacket, sir?

I'm fine.

Momose, this guy's Kazuo.

He's looking for Tsukumo.

Kazuo, this is Momose.

I'm sure you know he's the super engineer
that made BuyCome.

Now he runs three companies.

Geez, quit bragging about me already.

About BuyCome...

You put it together yourself, didn't you?

I read it in Newspics.

Oh, that? Screw 'em.

That photo of me after no sleep.
Face all puffy.

Made me look ugly.

Kazuo, is it?

You know Tsukumo?

Friends since college.

College?

Then call him. Why ask me?

Got a problem?

Won't tell me?

You just turn up and
expect me to tell you? Hell no.

You crazy, boy.

I'm sorry.

I'll tell you.

"Two weeks earlier”

You'll get into trouble.

Sorry.

Haven't you slept?

You look pale. You eating properly?

I'll be okay.

"Beef bowl (regular)”

"My library wages

"and my night bakery pay
add up to 370,000 a month.

"After living expenses for my wife,
daughter, and me, I have 150,000

"to repay my debt.

"With interest, it'll take me over
30 years to pay it all off.”

Sorry! Been waiting long?

Well?

You've improved.

The recital's soon.

Oh. Already?

Where to today?

Um...

The station building?

It's free.

No money talk around Madoka.

She's worried.

I know.

Also...

Smile.

Okay, over to you.

Oh...

Typical, Dad.

Can I ask you something?

Yeah, sure.

When will we all live together?

We can when you pay off your debt, right?

What does Mom say?

I don't really know.

"3rd Prize"

You want a bike?

No, it's okay.

Please, take mine.

No, we couldn't.

I'd only win tissues.

I never win anything.

Go on.

Thank you!

Thank you.

You try it.

Congratulations!

I thought I had a chance...

It's better than tissues.

It could be a winning ticket.

"Rainbow Jumbo Lottery"”

Huh?! Wow! You're a 100 million yen man too.

You should've said so.

Cashed it in?

Yes, right away.

"Kazuo Okura, small fry"

People gave you advice?

The kind that sounds like a threat.

"Kazuo Okura, millionaire”

That ends our explanation. Is everything clear?

Yes, I think.

Winners often rush into large purchases,

but that's most dangerous.

Please react calmly,
and discuss it with your family.

"Your New Life Book"

Buying things you don't need

and living more extravagantly

all of a sudden is extremely dangerous, so...

"Beef bowl (regular)”

Your order, sir.

Thank you.

"Right now,

"you're probably surprised and
overjoyed by your windfall.

"As it's likely a first for you,

"Rinka Aoki Ballet Studio Recital”

"you might also be feeling a little worried.

"Lotteries destroy families”

"Such post-excitement uncertainty

"Lottery winner found dead”

"is the key to restoring normality.”

"Don't buy into it!"

"Masako"

Tsukumo...

"Maybe Tsukumo can tell me where...

“...this money will lead.

"To happiness? Or perhaps..."

Kazuo?

Tsukumo...right?

Long time.

B-Been well?

Yeah. It's been 10 years.

11 years and three months.

Come in.

Shoes can stay on.

This is amazing.

I-It's for business meetings
and entertaining clients.

To cut costs, I'm I-living here too.

I see...

30 million, right?

Oh, my debt?

If that's all, I would've lent it to you.

So, w-where is it? Your 3-300 million.

My bank account.

Savings interest: 0.01%. Fixed deposit: 0.025%.

I'd avoid banks.

But, I was told to avoid carrying cash.

Take it out. 300 mil.

Look at it. Touch it.

Then make up your mind.

$-So?

So what?

Heavy?

Lethally heavy.

Height: 76mm. Width: 160mm. Weight: 1 gram.

Times 30,000 is 30 kilograms.

A 1 yen coin is 1 gram too.

100 yen is 4.8 grams. 500 yen is 7 grams.

1 yen and 10,000 yen
weighing the same is ironic, no?

You're amazing.

Nobody understands money.

Nobody t-tries to.

It manipulates and controls them.

I'm glad I came to you.

I'm lucky to have you.

It's my brother's debt.

I became his guarantor
without thinking. I regret it.

It'll be okay now.

I can be with my family.

Y-You pay off the debt, th-then what?

Once the debt's gone,

they'll come back to me.

My problem is all this money left over.

I need to know how to use it best.

No more money mistakes.

You're...a successful businessman.

You're worth 10 billion, right?

That's what I read online.

To be honest, I don't know
the b-best way to use money.

All I can do is help you to
u-understand money better.

So first, you need to...

...use it.

Your money.

"What the hell?"

You're no millionaire.

Geez, I wasted my time.

12,500 yen down the toilet.

1 get 150,000 an hour for corporate consulting.

I only talked for 5 minutes.

"Kazuo"

So I'm down 12,500. Waste waste waste!

"Small fry"

Rewind that back.
Waste waste waste! Triple waste!

You gonna bet?

Yeah!

You're wasting your time.

I'll give you a million each.

Alright.

Here.

Bet for them.

Make your pick.

Your choice, sir?

No thanks. I don't know horses.

Don't give me that horse crap.
Shut up and pick a number.

You know a little.

The rules, at least.

Listen up. Horse racing ain't gambling.

It's results, form, jockeys, and distance.

And...Move your ass.

The horse's condition.

Look. Check this out.

I analyze all that.

It's a data analysis-driven sport.

Enter-fricking-tainment.

For the next race,
11 and 5 are a lock for 1st and 2nd.

But what about 3rd?

Which horse is gonna take it?

Pick one.

Picking a number's easy.

Okay, 7. My daughter was born in July.

A birthday bet! They come through a lot!

Damn, dude!

I heard Tsukumo was in trouble.

His new venture wasn't going well.
They rarely do.

Why?

BuyCome had something special.

Me. Me me me, dammit.

I was the super engineer
who turned his delusions into reality.

BuyCome was like a lucky punch.

You can't always land 'em.

Sorry kid, but your 300 mil ain't coming back.

No way...

Hey, your race!

Let's go!

Come on, get up!

Number 4!

- Don't sprint yet!
- No! Go!

Number 7! Jackpot!

At odds of 100 to 1, you won 100 million.

100 million! 100! 100!

Huh?! Kazuo, oh my god!

Oh my god!

He won 100 million! 100 million!
This lucky dude!

Way to go, Kazuo.

I just shat a house.

Don't laugh.

"Kazuo Okura, millionaire”

Picked your next one?

Well?

Do I...have to?

Huh? You wanna run off with my money?

No, that's not what I meant.

I was just lucky...

Here's a hot tip.

The last race is easy money.

How come?

My horse.

The fastest on this course,
against a bunch of nags.

You need 200 million.

3 to 1 odds. An instant 300 million.

Okay, let me keep 30 million...

No frickin' way! You'll jinx yourself.

The goddess of luck hates pussies.
She told me yesterday.

But if I...

No buts, stupid!

Yeesh...Listen up!

No wonder your wife and
your daughter ain't around.

Still...

Still my ass! You gotta take a chance!

Life's all about taking risks, and timing!

That time is now, stupid!

Now, dude!

Now.

You feel me?

Bring it, number 7!

Scream your lungs out.

Your gusto is like nitro for horses.

Go on.

Go for it}

Number 7!

Attaboy!

Number 7!

Go!

Push up! Push up! Don't get pushed!

No, wait! Oh...

Well, you can't always get it right...

...in racing and life.

Just kidding.

You dumb-ass.

Think about it. Who'd lend you a million?

None of your bets were real.

Not one.

Got it?

So you didn't win 100 million, or lose it.

Plain and simple.

I told my guy not to bet for you.

Hey. Wait.

So, you were just messing around with us?

Come on, it's the same, Kazuo.

The same as your lottery win.

You only won and lost 300 million in your head.

Not my 300 million. I had it!

"My"? Yeah right.

You're all mad about losing it,

but you lucked into it.

Losing it was a good thing.

I need money to repay my debt
and live with my family!

What's money?

What's money?!

You just won and lost money in your head.

That's what money is.

A thing that doesn't exist
but still fools and rules you.

If you think money...

...will get your family back,

you're deluding yourself.

Well, I guess I did fool you too.

Okay. Come on.

Let's be Facebook friends.

Then you can look up all kinds of people.

Look for Tsukumo.

Okay?

I heard he's in trouble.

Momose.

He started a new company after selling BuyCome,

but it's going badly.

That's the rumor.

I hadn't seen him for a long time.

But...he seemed to be doing pretty well.

Were you friends?

With Tsukumo?

Yeah.

We were best friends...

...think.

What do you think rakugo is?

"14 years earlier"

What is it?

Alive performance.

A story told with voice changes.

Sometimes you go slow...
and sometimes you go fast.

You fluctuate. Fluctuate.

I want to try it too.

We're short on members,
so freshmen can perform too.

I want to!

Not you...

Let's go for it, Kazuo.

S-Sure...

"S-Sure"?!

Hey, you okay? You've been quiet for an hour.

1-I'm f-f-fine.

I c-couldn't eat b-because
of m-my p-part-time j-job...

Rakugo's about speaking clearly, you know?

Are you drunk?

There there.

I'm drunk too!

Me too!

You okay? Take a bathroom break.

There?!

His bag! His bag!

You owe me for dry-cleaning.

This way? This way?

Get up!

"How wretched I am,
drowning in drink every night."

You sure are.

"I yearned for money, and stumbled across some.

"Was I dreaming?

"I was dreaming!

"Indeed! I was dreaming!"

Keep it down!

"Oh yes, 'twas indubitably a dream.

YA weird "un. My hand stretched out
and thumped you.

"Ah, now I get it. Even so,

"I'm doomed, I tell you.

"Should we die?

"Yes, we should die."

You don't stutter doing rakugo.

"Work shall heal you.

"Leave the family to me, and go to work."

"So be it."

"Kazuo Okirakutei"

And lo, the grim reaper appeared.

All thin and haggard...

"It's fading, it's fading. Oh, it's fading.

It'll fade! It's fading!"

"Too much detail.

"Do me a favor and shut up.”

"Happy Birthday!"

"Thank you so much!”

"Kanda University Rakugo Club"

"Tsukumo Kogatei"”

I warmed them up, headliner.

Th-Thanks. It r-really helps.

Now for a tale called "Shibahama".

In old Edo, there was a fishmonger
named Katsugoro.

"Fishmonger Katsugoro finds a fortune.

"He's so happy, he drinks and
sings his heart out.

"Upon awaking the next morning,

"he discovers that the money is gone.

"His wife says he must've dreamed it,
which inspires him.

"Three years later, he has his own store,

"which he's made a roaring success.

"Then his wife reveals to him

"that she had hidden his windfall from him.

"Grateful for her quick-wittedness,

"he stops her pouring sake.

"I * don't want this to be a dream too.

This is our biggest crowd in a while.

It went viral on SNS.

Tsukumo's 99% without Kazuo,
but they're 100% together.

Yeah, I'm just 1%.

No, I meant...

You complete each other.

He was great, right?

Great.

"Indeed! I was dreaming!

Oh yes! 'Twas indubitably a dream.”

You know,

he was a real friend to you, Tsukumo was.

I mean, when you won the lottery,

you went to him, despite years apart.

That's a real friend.

Or rather, a best friend.

I guess so.

Oh, this is me. Driver, here's fine.

Yes ma'am.

Oh, thanks.

Without you, I would've been totally lost.

Thanks.

Good luck.

Um, I'll get out here too.

You will?

Okay, that comes to...

With expressway charges, that's 12,340 yen.

"Kiyoto Senju”

In this ultra-low interest era,
how can we approach money?

It's vital to clarify your stance and
convey your mindset.

With collateral,
you can get financing anywhere.

Always rent. Never own.

Owning depreciating things is a massive risk.

As time goes, that risk grows.

You need to invest most in yourself.

Maximize your own value,
and things come to you.

Sorry I can only talk on the go!

No, I'm sorry.

Sadly, I'm out of touch with Tsukumo.

Totally? Since he sold BuyCome?

He wouldn't want to see
anyone involved with it.

That sale scarred him for life.

"So, the valuation?"

Cipher Bank want a complete share buyout...

"Two years earlier”

...for 20 billion.

Sweet.

It's a deal, Tsukumo.

Not for me. I won't sell.

Huh?! Get real.
This is a once-in-a-lifetime deal, now.

Now's too early for a valuation.

Most importantly,

if we sell, they won't keep us around.

How so?

They don't care about BuyCome.

They'll use it as a sales portal.

That's buyer's privilege.

Taking back your word?

To get bigger and go public. You said that.

That was to motivate staff.

We're not monetizing.

We'd never get listed.

We just need ideas.

We know! Is he nuts?

We're not like you.

How'd we get this far?
How'd we create this value?

It's obvious. By overworking our staff.

Not through innovation.

BuyCome has u-unrealized potential.

N-Now it's just a trading site,

b-but users set their own prices.

Th-They create their o-own value.

That's p-p-priceless...

Don't stutter now.

I won't debate you. Come on, Tsukumo.

Please. For all of us. Sell the company!

Well, he reluctantly sold up in the end.

And made us millionaires.

Come to think of it, Tsukumo had issues.

Issues?

I dragged him out to Nishi-Azabu a lot, but...

He's a complicated guy.

You know "Dragon Ball"?

Of course.

You know scouters?
Devices that measure an enemy's power.

Oh, like Frieza's being 530,000...

Yeah. All Nishi-Azabu women have scouters.

Every night, they measure men
by their "powers”.

Tsukumo witnessed a war
he couldn't win, and became...

...traumatized by money and women.

Can we pick this up later?

Sure.

Millionaire!

To those of you led here by that sweet word,

welcome to Millionaire New World!

"Kiyoto Senju”

In the words of Benjamin Franklin,

"For the best return on your money,

"pour your purse into your head."

Investment in your intellect always

yields the greatest interest.

I want to transform you, deep down.

Let's transform! Together!

If you had unlimited money, what would you do?

What would you acquire?

It could be anything. Anything at all.

Use your imagination to the fullest,

and write it all down in one minute.

Money prefers specific aspirations.

Let your imagination run wild.

Write all you can,

and be specific.

Okay!

You there, sir. Have you written yours?

Show us your dreams.

Now...

Repay my debts, and live with my family.

How much do you owe?

70 million.

I thought I'd be successful!

It's my business partner's fault...

Your family?

My wife, and my daughter.

It's been two years!

They'll come true. Your dreams will come true.

I've got nowhere else to go! Only New World...

Your dreams will come true!

You can have this.

What's it worth?

10,000 yen.

But you got it for free.

I'll ask you again. What is it worth?

You're a slave to the idea of money.

To artificially created sums.

Isn't that right? That bill you got for free...

...is worth zero yen.

So...tear it up.

Tear it? 10,000 yen?

Yes. Rip it up into tiny shreds of confetti.

After all, it's...

...worth zero yen.

Tear it up!

Tear it up!

Tear it up!

I can't, it's too stiff!

I can't!

Tear it up! Tear it up!

Tear it up! Tear it up!

Tear it up! You want to be
a lowly pauper all your life?

Tear it up! Tear it up!

I tore it.

I tore it up!

Well done!

Wasn't that easy? Money's no big deal.

It's just a man-made illusion.

Don't let it enslave you.

Pay your debt? Live with your family?

Why not envision loftier dreams?

In order to do that, first of all,

you must free yourself from money.

It's only paper!

It's only paper!

It's only paper! It's only paper!

It's only paper!

It's only paper! Everyone, stand up!

It's only paper!

That's the spirit.

Now you're freed from money,
your dreams will come true.

And it's me saying that,
so it's got to be true.

So, what's your dream?

Success in business!

It'll come true.

What's your dream?

To live in Hawaii!

It'll come true!

Yes, you.

To put on a successful play!

It'll come true!

I want to be able to use money wisely.

Rather than letting it use me.

It'll...come...true!

Those debt-laden suckers are too damn broke!

A waste of seats and oxygen!

"Live with my family"?
They left out of pity for you!

Be grateful, you loser!

"I want to use money"?

That sounded great. You've got savvy.

By all means, consider signing up.

About Tsukumo...

Oh, right. Try this woman.

Her surname's...Yasuda now. Towako Yasuda.

Ex-BuyCome. Effectively Tsukumo's secretary.

I'll call her first.

She might know his whereabouts.

Thank you.

Have a good read of our pamphlet.

Doesn't scamming people like this bother you?

Huh? "Scamming"?

You're just getting rich off them.

This is...trash!

They dropped it, and we picked it up.

It's 10,000 yen to some, and trash to others.

They drop loads of trash,
and go home satisfied.

They'll have sweet dreams tonight.

"Your dream...will come true too!"

Do you get it? It reassures them.

Coming from a success like me.

What price would you put on reassurance?

- Reassurance?
- Yes.

They don't know, so I put a price on it.

Put a price on your family.

I couldn't...

Oh please. You told me.

You want 300 million to get them back.

Their valuation?

100 million?

150 million?

How much can you buy them for?

Some things can't be bought.

You must have family...

Five kids that I recognize.
Mothers all healthy.

I pay plenty each month,
so they live better than your daughter.

Isn't this amazing?

Paper that buys anything.

It's godlike even.

Ironic, isn't it? Pieces of godliness.

Paper is God.

All humans join a religion that worships this.

As soon as they're born.

Third from the front.

"You said on the phone..."

On the phone?

That you had 300 million,
so your debt'll be gone.

You sounded really drunk. Somewhere noisy.

Did you dream it?

It wasn't a dream.

I really won 300 million. In the lottery.

You're joking.

I don't have it with me now, but I will soon.

When I do,

you two can come back.

Let's live together again.

Remember?

When Madoka said she wanted to do ballet.

I wasn't sure she'd stick with it.

But now...

...she's in her third year.

You're still...

...angry I told you no more ballet?

It was fair. We were short on money.

Don't worry about money now.

Let's live together once I pay my debt.
That's all I want.

It's about time you signed
those papers I gave you.

Divorce papers.

Why? Once I have money, we'll be fine.

Madoka's growing up. It's time we did it.

Madoka needs me. You need me!

All we lacked was money, but not anymore!

The burden was too heavy for you.

What was?

300 million?

Too heavy.

Enough to change you.

I'm sorry.

Hey...

"You know, don't you?"

That I made a billion from the BuyCome sale.

do.

A young female billionaire.

And yet you find me
living frugally in public housing.

Surprised?

No, not really...

"It's not fair."

That's what everyone said
after I got the money.

"It's not fair"?

“I'm jealous.” "I envy you."
"I wish I could be you."

That's what I thought
people would say, I admit.

But they didn't. Just,
"It's not fair.” That's all.

Really...

I'd rather not reminisce
about that time in my life.

Were you and Tsukumo...romantically involved?

What do you think?

According to Senju, Tsukumo had issues.

With women.

What else? Did Senju say anything?

Nishi-Azabu women are scary.

That's rich.

Men are scary.

Men who realize they can buy anything.

They try to buy you.

Like chattel in a market.

Hey there.

Where do you live?

Sangenjaya.

Pick any place.

I'll pay for it.

Your rent, movers, everything.

- Okay...
- Okay?

And in return?

In return? In return, you give me your time.

Where does your money go?

Clothes, beauty treatments...

I'll pay for all of it next time.

Like modeling?

I'll pay for the hotel, air tickets, the lot.

And an apartment, to get to know you.

For real?

Really.

Move in above me.

I'll arrange it all.

"It's just like negotiating
a pro baseball contract.

" 'You want how much? Then I'll pay it." "

"I'll pay for this too."

They up their bid till you say okay.

Girls visualize what they're offered.

A definite, pragmatic vision.

It's like magic.

You visualize, visualize, visualize...

...till you're falling.

At the height of BuyCome's success,

this caused a huge controversy.

We scrambled to smother it,

deleting, deleting, and deleting.

Then I realized.

People have a price.

No matter how much I spoke up,

girls kept being bought and sold.

In the thousands.

A while after leaving BuyCome,

I joined a matchmaking agency.

I met a guy, and I knew instantly
he was the one.

"So, this is my soul mate.”

My husband's not interested in money at all.

Clothes, food, a place to live...
He's not fussy.

That's his lifestyle.

Nothing beats it.

People let money sway them,
and decide everything for them.

But he kissed that world goodbye. So I decided.

Marrying him meant...

...never having to care...

...about money again.

What'll you do?

About what?

The 300 million.
What'll you do if you get it back?

Use it.

On what?

I don't know.

I'm trying to figure that out.

How should I best use that money?

That's wonderful...

...Kazuo.

You deserve to see this. As a special treat.

I'm not down-and-out at all.

We're surrounded...

...my husband and I.

Everybody likes to save.

Save, save, save.

They look at their balance and grin,

and die without using it.

That's how money works.

As long as you've got it...

Do you regret selling the company?

You...

...and Momose, and Senju,

and Tsukumo too.

If we sell, our achievements and ourselves

will be worth nothing.

But 20 billion's in reach.

What is that money?

What's the point of it?

"You might not have got the money,

"but what you chased with BuyCome..."

Your dreams...

Money couldn't buy them, could it?

You're probably right.

Tsukumo told me a lot...

...about you.

You were both in a rakugo club.

It was rare for him.

You're the only friend he ever told me about.

Really...

When he was talking about you, Tsukumo...

...looked genuinely happy.

And somehow lonely too.

That trip to Morocco. You went together?

He said he came up with the idea
for BuyCome in Morocco.

He must've loved it.

So many people...

I-I imagined so, b-but not this many.

I'm sure it's this way...

- We came from here.
- Yeah,

so this should be the way.

.

.

I like. No money.

.

.

.

.

.

I like, no money. Don't worry, my friend.

.

.

.

.

This way, my friend.

Don't worry, my friend.

It'll be okay.

Don't worry, don't worry.

.

There it is.

We made it.

.

.

.

.

.

.

No, we've got to be f-firm at times like these.

.

"We don't pay money," huh?!

How does that help me?!

I just wasted 15 minutes!

You Japanese got time to waste!

Go eat rats and roaches back home!

.

I'm exhausted.

We've come a long way.

Tsukumo.

There's no telling what'll happen from here on.

Let's hide it to be safe.

Good idea.

Let's go in.

"Huh? What's come over me?"

Tsukumo. Come on.

Everyone! This man destroyed
my store! Everyone!

Everyone! He fell here deliberately!

Tsukumo!

I'm sorry...

I'm sorry.

The doctor said it's travel fatigue.
R-Rest tomorrow.

- No, I'm...
- Sit down.

- I'm okay.
- I'll make tea.

Thanks.

What about the plates I broke?

Don't worry.

You paid?

How much?

Oh, forget it.

No, I can't just forget it.

I'll pay you back. How much was it?

346,000 yen.

You...paid that?

He really saw us coming, didn't he?

But that's...

You shouldn't have just paid what he asked for.

I mean, how could you?

To get you to hospital quickly,
I couldn't waste time haggling.

W-When I said I'd pay,
they s-softened up right away.

Don't worry. I'll get it back in Tokyo,
from insurance.

Get well soon, and let's enjoy our trip.

Thanks.

Without you, I might've died.

Want to listen?

To this.

You brought Shibahama to Morocco?

For real?

Wow.

It fits here too.

It sure does.

You're crazy.

"I've decided.”

"What?"

To quit college and start a business.

Why?

Sorry. I-1-1 can't wait any longer.

You can't wait?

What about Rakugo Club?

What about our graduation show?

Anyway, starting a business isn't that easy.

You need money too.

M-M-Money's not a problem.

I've been trading stocks.

I've saved 100 million.

100 million?!

I used money from my p-part-time job
and invested slowly.

Making 100 million was I-lucky though.

I've thought about it
for a I-long, I-long time.

What should I do w-with this money?
W-What should I do with this fortune?

But, now I know for sure
w-what I want to do with it.

H-Helping people to
exchange money and things online.

I'll create a service like that.

This trip has i-inspired me.

You're amazing, Tsukumo.

I feel like an idiot.

Discount air tickets...

Looking only for cheap hotels...

No taxis, just buses...

Cheap noodles for college lunches...

And bean sprouts...

W-Would you have come?

If I'd offered to p-pay for this whole trip,

w-would you have come?

Well, yeah...

In certain cases,

a 500-yen plate can cost 10 times that.

Prices change for reasons
as vague as necessity.

That's obvious, but it wasn't to me.

Monetary value i-is subjective.

So, instead of letting others decide the price,

you decide.

Anyone can be a trader.

You take what you value,
and decide your own price.

They pay what it's worth. Revolutionary.

After all,

nothing has an absolute worth.

Holy shit.

You can speak properly.

You can speak your own mind, and so fluently.

Holy shit.

You're rich, and you speak properly.

I'm...who I always was.

I want to understand money.

But...

...I won't change. Ever.

I'll never...change.

Now for a tale called "Shibahama".

In old Edo was a man named Katsugoro.

This fella was a heck of a fishmonger,

but drinking was his downfall.

Once he got started,
he didn't work for 20 days,

to his wife's chagrin.

"Hey, hubby."

"What, darn it?"

"Don't be like that. Get up already.”

"Lemme take just a few more days off."

"Wifey! Open up! Wifey!"

"Alright, alright.”

"Oh! Goodness me!"

"Something's off-kilter.
My head ain't screwed on right.”

"I'm glad...you turned it into a dream."”

"So hubby, you won't leave me?"

"I sure won't."

"You can...stop pouring.”

"But why?"

"No more dreams.”

"BuyCome"

What are you ignoring me for?

This.

I've never used it. I'm learning it.

To buy things? You've got no money.

Actually, I can pay it off now. My debt.

Huh? Really?

I won the lottery.

Bull left the money with a friend,
and lost it.

My friend too.

Oh...

You're too nice, Dad.

I can't believe he'd ever deceive me like that.

"Masako Okura"

Hello.

Here you go.

"Did you bring it?"

"Kazuo Okura" "Masako Okura"

Masako, won't you reconsider?

I did win the lottery.
I'll have the money back soon.

Then we can be a family again.

I'll repay my debt.

Let's buy a house.

I know it's been hard for you.
You can have anything.

You could have a car,
and even go on a vacation.

And eat whatever you want.

Use the money...

You think that'll make us happy?

You really have changed.

Day and night, all you thought
about was repaying your debt.

Money took a hold of you,

and robbed you of the will to live.

No matter how big the debt was,
I thought I'd cope with it.

As long as I could...

...see Madoka's recital with you once a year.

"She should quit ballet."

I want her to keep going.

She seems to enjoy it.

But it's 12,000 a month,
and 150,000 for the recital.

That's too much.

She'll keep going.

Going to ballet.

Bull can't...

She found something she wants to do...

Don't tell me that again!

"Every time Madoka gazed at the ballet school,

"I asked if she wanted to try it,

"and one day, she finally said yes."

"You keep telling me that!

"But you know..."

can't afford it."

Ever read this book?

Poetry?

I've never really read poetry.

Try these two.

These are zellige, Moroccan mosaic tiles...

Tsukumo?

Not one gram less.

It's exactly what you brought me.

Why'd you do it?

This money...

How does it -look to you now?

Honestly, it looks totally different.

When I brought it to you,

I thought it'd change everything.

I thought it'd solve everything.

But I didn't know anything.

I couldn't regain what I wanted most.

Even with 300 million.

What about you?

You understand money now?

I spoke to your BuyCome partners.

You went through a lot.

Those people changed completely.

Money changes people.

It consumes everything,

and changes people.

You're right.

It sure does.

I know that well now.

But I believed in you.

You stole my money and ran off with it?

I couldn't believe that.

There had to be a reason.

Shibahama, huh?

You did it to stop me from going crazy.

From doing something stupid.

The more money I got...

The more my company grew...

...the more I distrusted my partners.

I even ended up losing my company.

The more I understood
about money's true nature,

the more I...lost what I valued most.

But...

You just said what I wanted to hear most.

I disappeared with your money,

which meant so much to you,

but still,

you believed in me.

I think...

...I was using you to get
a better understanding of money.

I understood 99% of it, but...

...I needed that 1%. That 1%...

...is what you just taught me now.

Money doesn't change.

Its weight differs depending on who's using it.

It's people that change money.

Thank you, Kazuo.

We haven't changed at all.

We still...

...complete each other.

Tsukumo?

Tsukumo!

No more dreams.

"I'm...who I always was."

I want to understand money.

But...

...I won't change. Ever.

I'll never...change.

"Tsukumo, you're amazing."

"You kept searching for an answer..."

Bye!

Take care!

Mom! Come and see!

Quickly!

What is it?

A bike! A bike! It's so cool!

Right?

That's enough. You'll be late.

- But the color's so...
- After school.

Okay. Bye!

Take care.

"This is the first thing I bought.”

'I don't know if she'll like it,
but I'm leaving it."
