Will you look at that? The color is perfect too.

It matches your complexion.

I can't wait till you try it on.

It's the color of cherry blossoms, like the kimono my mother used to wear.

It suits you very well. Don't you think so, Young Master?

Uh-huh.

But sir?

I can't possibly take all of these nice pieces of kimono.

It's to say thanks for the hair string. Just accept them.

Okay.

It was Mr. Kudo himself who chose this pattern for you.

I'm happy for you, Ms. Miyo.

Yes.

Thank you very much.

MY HAPPY MARRIAGE

EPISODE 5 RIPPLES

I never thought she would win the heart of Kudo.

That's quite a feat.

Mr. Tatsuishi, is that some kind of joke?

It's no joke. It's the truth about your older sister.

Don't you want to know how Miyo is doing now?

That man...

It's the man I saw that time.

As you can see...

Miyo is getting along well with Kiyoka Kudo.

This man is Kiyoka Kudo?

I still can't believe his bride will be that girl, Miyo.

Honestly, it's causing a problem with our plan.

- We wanted her to be Kazushi's wife. - I won't forgive her!

Shinichi didn't want you, his beloved daughter,

to marry into a family with a bad reputation like the Kudo family, I'm sure.

I'm going to go ask Father.

You're concerned too, aren't you?

Y-Yes.

Leave it to me. My father can't say no to me.

What a foolish girl.

Thanks to her, I don't need to do anything.

My husband-to-be arranged for me to have a meeting with Hana.

To show my gratitude,

I decided to have a dinner party

and invite Mr. Godo as well.

Boy, am I excited to see Ms. Miyo again!

You'd better behave yourself.

Aren't you on night patrol from tomorrow?

Wow, Ms. Miyo's cooking...

I wonder what we're having?

Don't say her name like that!

Why? Are you jealous?

Of course not.

I just had a momentary urge for violence.

Which is basically jealousy.

Did you say something?

Uh, no, nothing.

Ready.

Hurry up and get out!

Hey, you don't have to be so rough!

I'll tell Ms. Miyo on you!

Ow...

It's all right if you disappear now.

Give me a break...

Welcome home, sir.

Whoa, Ms. Miyo!

Mr. Godo, welcome to our home too.

Wow.

You look especially beautiful today.

Sir, I...

You're so... beautiful.

You look good in that kimono.

Maybe I should go home after all.

Oh, pardon me, Mr. Godo.

Please come in.

Big Sister, happier than me?

I will never...

ever allow it.

Thank you for the meal!

It's delicious!

It's really good!

Please help yourself.

To think of being able to eat Ms. Miyo's delicious cooking every day!

I'm jealous of you, Commander.

Oh, I want to try this too.

So good!

Mr. Godo, shall I pour you some?

Oh, thank you very much.

Mr. Godo, thank you for helping me meet with Hana the other day.

Um, all I did was drive her here and back.

But you did use your precious time for somebody like me.

I truly appreciate your kindness.

Ms. Miyo! I'm happy because nobody has ever said anything like this to me before!

Why don't you leave the fiendish commander and marry me?

Godo! What the hell?!

I'm just kidding.

Um, Mr. Godo.

I appreciate your offer,

but I prefer my husband-to-be.

I'm so sorry.

I didn't think you'd take it seriously...

I guess the fiendish commander is a human after all.

Did you say something?

Uh, no, nothing.

Good grief. He definitely had too much to drink.

And he's aware that it's going to get busy.

Was this dinner a problem for you?

No, no. It's not that.

Well, it was surprising when you said you wanted to invite Godo for dinner.

Were you able to accomplish what you wanted?

Yes.

Thanks to you, I was able to show my gratitude to Mr. Godo.

Thank you very much.

Why?

It doesn't matter.

Forget about Miyo.

But I'm the one more worthy to marry into the Kudo family.

You just can't.

Why?

Why won't you listen to what I have to say?

Kaya. If you have too much free time,

be good and go do some training to become a good wife.

Father!

You're different from her. You must always be superior to her.

Koji?

Huh?

Why are you here this late at night?

Listen, Koji.

Wouldn't you rather get engaged to Big Sister?

- Stay away. - Help me.

- Help... - Help me...

- Stay away... - Help...

Help...

Think about what you did. Don't show your face until you're sorry.

Miyo.

Remnants of supernatural ability...?

But there's no sign of the barrier being broken.

What does it mean?

I'm so...

sorry.

Miyo, wake up!

Are you all right?

Huh? Sir?

You were groaning in your sleep.

Were you having a bad dream or something?

A dream...

You don't have to force yourself to remember.

If anything unusual occurs, don't hesitate to tell me.

Okay.

Remember.

No matter what happens,

I will always be there for you.

Understood, sir.

Wouldn't you rather get engaged to Big Sister?

Mr. Tatsuishi said he'll cooperate.

You'll cooperate too, of course, right?

What are Kaya and my father thinking?

There, done.

He's going to be so happy.

The Young Master tends not to bother with meals when he's busy.

He's probably famished by now.

I hope he doesn't mind me going to his workplace.

It'll be all right.

As soon as you're ready, we should bring these to him together.

Yes.

Ms. Miyo?

Yes.

Why don't you bring this drawstring pouch today?

The Young Master chose this pattern so it would match that kimono.

It's pretty.

I think you should use it.

The Young Master would love to see it.

I will use it. Thank you.

Okay then, shall we go?

I think we should hurry a bit,

so as not to be late for lunchtime.

Y-Yes.

Father. Do you have a minute?

Yes, what is it?

Oh, Koji.

Kaya.

Why are you here?

Why?

I'm here to trade fiancés with Big Sister.

Will you stop kidding around?

Kidding? I'm not kidding.

I know you like Big Sister better than me.

Your father didn't give permission, right?

There's no way it would happen without his consent.

But what if Big Sister herself agrees to it?

What are you up to?

Well, you'll see. Just trust me.

All you have to do is watch.

Miyo. Yurie.

What are both of you doing here?

Good day, sir.

Sorry to bother you at work.

Well, I was worried you hadn't eaten properly.

So I brought you lunch.

Oh, right.

That's helpful.

It must have been tough walking here under the blazing sun.

Do you want to take a rest inside?

No thank you.

I appreciate it, but I don't want to be in your way, so I'll go home.

Okay.

We'll be going, then.

Miyo, do you have the amulet with you?

Yes, I have it in here.

Good.

I just wanted to make sure.

Commander Kudo!

I'll be right there!

I would have liked to drive you home, but I don't have time at the moment.

It's okay.

I'm sorry to have bothered you when you're busy.

No worries. Take care going home, you two.

The Young Master was being shy, wasn't he?

Ms. Miyo? What's the matter?

Well, I... um...

I seemed to have left the amulet at home.

Oh dear!

It must be because I rushed you.

No, I was not mindful enough.

I promised him I would always bring it with me.

Ms. Miyo, we must go straight home, without delay.

Yes.

I can't believe I messed up.

That was a precious amulet that he gave me.

I was so excited about my new pouch that I forgot about the amulet.

Ms. Yurie!

Ms. Miyo!

Ms. Yurie!

Ms. Miyo!

Ms. Miyo!

Kaya, Father, what are you trying to do to Miyo?

We're going to make Big Sister turn down the marriage offer from Mr. Kudo.

Right, Mr. Tatsuishi?

You know we can't just stand by in this situation.

Anyway, I'll be waiting for you at the Saimori house.

It's the only way to get that girl. I have no choice.

After all this time? Why?

This is a matter between families.

Miyo being isolated in her family was beneficial to us, the Tatsuishi family.

What the hell...?

You wouldn't understand.

I would do anything for the continuance of our family.

It's my duty as the head of the Tatsuishi family.

Unforgivable...

So all this time...

you looked the other way on Miyo being treated awfully

for your own advantage?

I won't forgive you!

Oh? Do you intend to fight me using supernatural ability?

I don't want to hear anything from you anymore.

It's futile. Stop it now.

I won't let you have your way with Miyo's life anymore!

Wha...?

Impressive. I didn't know you had this much power.

Huh? Why won't it...?

Move!

You idiot.

There's no way a barely trained novice like you can withstand my power.

If you think you can defy me, stay there on the floor and sleep it off.

Damn...

Why?

Let's go.

Yes, sir.

Koji.

If you want something, you have to select the means to get it.

You're perpetually second-rate because you never have any strategy.

I am an idiot.

Are you going to face down like that

and wait for time to pass again?

Big Brother...

Damn it.

I couldn't do anything again. I can't even win against Father.

I'm still so immature.

Then, are you going to give up?

Of course, it's easier not to get involved in complicated matters.

But why did you stand up to him in the first place?

Go wash your face.

Someone is waiting for you, right?

Miyo.

I'm not going to give up.

I've got to save Miyo...

I'm sorry, Young Master.

Miyo was kidnapped?!

I was supposed to keep an eye on her.

I'm so sorry!

What about the amulet?

She must have had it with her.

Actually...

She realized she hadn't brought it with her after we left you.

Ms. Miyo...

I know who did it, in all likelihood.

I know where Miyo must be...

Hey! There's no trespassing here!

Let me go! I've come to meet Mr. Kudo!

Commander!

Mr. Kudo!

I know I'm out of line to ask you something like this.

But, please.

I can't save Miyo alone...
