The morning
after Gitarin leaves the village…

-Okay if your hands get dirty?
-Yeah, totally okay.

Love Fighter Makio invites Nino
to paint the girls' room with him.

Makio is concerned about Nino,

who's distressed
when Gitarin goes overboard.

After the Gitarin thing…

Well, I should have talked
to you about that.

The big sisters in the house
gave me big hugs.

-Yeah, so I'm okay now.
-I'm glad to hear that.

-Yer very good at this.
-"Yer"?

Yer very good.

-Impressive.
-You're complimenting everything.

You're painting so carefully.

The wall must be happy
with how nice you're making it.

-This is a work of art.
-True, it's our work of art.

These two-and-a-half panels
are Nino and Makio's creation.

True, Nino and…
Nino-Maki.

-Ain't it cool?
-"Ain't it cool?"

FROM NINO'S DIARY

Makio must be the kind of person
who can say kind things to others.

I was glad he talked to me.

SATO THE GOAT

All the romances
in Love Village on one side,

Ayakan, the secretary,

has feelings for Captain,
the former rescue pilot.

Captain has feelings for Nino,
the model and web editor.

And Makio, who works
in construction and renovation,

has feelings for Tamifull,
the manga artist.

Meanwhile, the Fifties are involved
in some intriguing developments

with Tanasan,
the CEO of a specialized trading company.

Gitarin's in black and white.

-Cooling off.
-That means black and white.

No smartphones
are allowed in Love Village.

However, the residents
get 30 minutes each morning

to connect with work and family.

Oh, that's nice.

Bougainvillea.

Well then…

Today, Captain,
who is targeting Nino, says…

I'm putting it in the fridge.

He's targeting her.

Can you tell me
about the times you were most popular?

Not sure I ever was.

But I bet you were often popular.

I was popular?

Well, I wouldn't say that,
but I was the most popular

when I was a pilot
in the self-defense force.

-Of course.
-Really? Wow.

It's pretty cool.

They say it's great
that you can learn survival skills

in the self-defense force.

But to survive the world today,

you need skills
for navigating modern society,

-which basically means…
-Right.

-…money making skills.
-I see.

Yeah, so now, people who make money
tend to be popular. Naturally.

I see.

In fact, 19 years ago,

Captain leaves the self-defense force
and jumps into the business world.

He manages a company
that sells cosmetics for men

and another that operates
mobile supermarkets.

Additionally, he's a manager
at a publicly traded company.

He's a dedicated workaholic
before coming to Love Village.

I see.

I can't figure out at all
how she feels about me.

Right.

But I want to let her know
that I'm attracted to her.

So, I wanna keep approaching her.

He's an earnest guy.

Captain comes up with an idea.

Operation Hibiscus. Yes.

-What's that?
-Is it okay?

Captain invites Nino to chat.

So I have a favor to ask you.

The hibiscus…

It's about watering the hibiscus plants…

-I'd appreciate it…
-Yes.

…if you could help me
water them twice a day

in the morning and the evening,
so I don't forget.

Together.

I usually wake up at 8:00 in the morning,
and it's a part of my daily routine

to water them while having coffee or tea.

But you can do it whenever works for you.

-How about it?
-Okay.

THE NEXT MORNING

Captain and Nino agree
to water the plants in the morning.

Wow.

Captain's waiting
in the dirt floor room at 7:30.

-So early.
-Oh, he's making tea.

Wow, like a date.

TEA FOR NINO

THE SCHEDULED TIME

TANASAN

Who is it?

-Ah, it's Tanasan.
-It's Tanasan.

-Tea, tea.
-"Tea time."

-However…
-Oh, my.

Maybe Nino doesn't get up early.

FROM CAPTAIN'S DIARY

She didn't show up.

What?

I'm really hurt.

What? He's that hurt?

Meanwhile, Nino…

You'd assume she overslept, right?

NINO, 42 - PACHI YUMI, 51

A man and a woman…

She probably just forgot.

Made love.

Yoi Yoi

Then you do this and step back.

Oh, good.

Teaching from the bed.

THE NEXT MORNING

Nice work, Pachi Yumi.

Captain can't give up
and waits for Nino the next morning.

What?
Wait, he didn't ask her about it?

THE SCHEDULED TIME

Oh, he didn't mention it to her?

STANDING OUTSIDE TO MAKE A STATEMENT

He should
just mention it to her jokingly.

He makes the fifth cup of tea
and keeps waiting.

Then…

Good morning.

-Oops, this is bad.
-Who is it?

-Hi.
-Pachi Yumi shows up.

-Pachi Yumi.
-Pachi Yumi.

Is Nino awake?

-She's awake.
-She is?

-Yeah.
-Um, watering the hibiscus plants.

Just hold on.

Oh, she's going to get Nino.

"Just hold on."

The way she said it.

Ten minutes later…

Good morning.

Sorry.
I forgot about it for a moment.

Oh, is that so?

Wait, for a moment?

And so,
they finally go to water the plants.

Then Captain notices something.

Those are toilet sandals.

Is it bad?
I just fixed my bangs.

And I didn't change.

No, no, it's fine.

I wonder what it means

-that she forgot.
-Today, there's one.

One flower blossoming today.

FROM CAPTAIN'S DIARY

At 8:00 in the morning,
she wasn't wearing any makeup,

but that was fine too.

She's got nerve. I like that about her.

Oh, he found that charming.

I felt joy, watering planes

and making small talk
with a woman that I liked.

-I've never felt this way before.
-Oh, he's in love!

It might be great for Captain,
but what about Nino?

It's a bud.
Like a budding romance, a symbol, right?

THE NEXT DAY

Well, since the weather is nice,
let's split into two groups and…

-Let's go.
-Yes.

The residents decide
to split into two groups.

One for renovating and one for cooking.

Then, Pachi Yumi, Nikorun's mom…

-Yes. Tanasan.
-Yes.

How unusual.

…approaches Tanasan,
the CEO of a trading company,

-whom she's interested in.
-Is this outfit okay?

-No.
-Right.

-Your clothes will get dirty. Hold on.
-Right.

She's being a bit harsh again.
She probably had something ready for him.

-Is that so?
-That's what it is.

Try wearing these ladies-size overalls.

-These?
-Yeah, try them on.

For some reason,
after seeing this,

Sen-ne goes to the girls' room.

-Why?
-Hold on a bit.

He suddenly
gives off different vibes.

It's all right. Thank you.

Pachi Yumi
lends her overalls to Tanasan

since he doesn't have any work clothes.

Kind of suits him.

Then, Sen-ne shows up
with her best hairstyle

to make an impression.

-Right. Thank you.
-Yeah, this part is a little…

AGE 57, PIGTAILS

-Oh, you look too cute.
-Sen-ne!

That's what you do
when you're in love.

I thought, "Why don't I try
wearing pigtails?"

You look like a little girl…

And he's become a little boy again!

A woman in her 50s
who's become a little girl again

and a man in his 50s
who's become a little boy.

Thank you.

I wonder what Pachi Yumi thinks.

Pigtailed Sen-ne
invites Tanasan to cook with her.

And she asks him this question.

So, what's your age range
for a relationship?

FIVE YEARS HIS SENIOR

My ex-wife and I were a year apart,
and I've dated women who were older.

-Oh, it's the "Golden Sandals," huh?
-Yeah.

-I see.
-Yeah.

Women can feel a bit uncomfortable
if they're older, though.

Wow.

Sen-ne,
who quotes that proverb…

I learned something new.

…spends her youth
during the height of the Bubble Era.

So cute.

She really went all out.

She works as a receptionist
at a major company…

I see.

And is still beautiful,
even in her fifties.

-This is four years ago?
-Four years ago?

At 52, she wins the 50s Grand Prix

for the Asian Golden Star Women
Excellence Award,

representing Japan.

-So amazing!
-Wow!

She is truly
a miracle 57-year-old.

She's wearing pigtails
in this photo, too.

I've never cooked
with a guy's help before.

I think this is the first time
since coming here.

Oh, really?

Then someone stops by,
curious to see how these two are doing.

-Tana-kun!
-Yes?

-She called him Tana-kun.
-You're working hard.

-I am.
-He is.

He's amazing.

Tanasan can do anything.

-Yes.
-He's great at dicing onion, too.

Oh, wow.

Oh.

What's next?

-Making the beds?
-Yes.

You can stay here, Tana-kun.

-You can continue cooking.
-Yes.

Touching a woman's bed
makes my heart flutter a bit.

Pervert!

-You sick pervert!
-Yes.

Nino and I might just be
in the way if we stay here.

No, you're not in the way.

Let's go over there,
do some exploration.

-Exploration! We'll go.
-Down there.

-Take care.
-Thanks.

-Pachi Yumi steps aside.
-And after Pachi Yumi leaves…

Okay, I want you
to try some of this.

-Oh, thank you.
-Here.

Oh, my.

Do you want a bite?

Here.

-Oh, my!
-Check it out.

FROM SEN-NE'S DIARY

I cooked with Tanasan today.

I'm a bit older than the women
he's dated in the past.

He didn't mention
he's okay with dating me,

but I wonder how he feels about my age…

Should be fine.

On the other hand,
Pachi Yumi writes…

FROM PACHI YUMI'S DIARY

My overalls
looked good on Tana-kun.

My daughter told me to stop bossing
people around because guys don't like it.

-That's good advice.
-Nice.

-That's good, Nikorun.
-That's good advice.

ATSUSHI TAMURA

That was something
I wanted to tell her too.

BECKY

-Her daughter knows her well.
-She does. I'm impressed.

Nikorun should give her more advice.

-True.
-Like, "How do you talk to others, Mom?"

But, she did great, especially when
she handed the overalls to Tanasan.

TANASAN, 52, CEO

Yeah, she's being more proactive.

I think her voice got
a little higher, too.

True, a little.

But so far, um, Sen-ne's been…

SEN-NE, 57, DIETARY ADVISOR

She made a move by wearing pigtails.

When Pachi Yumi makes a move,
so does Sen-ne.

I love how her tactics have
a Showa-era vibe, like the pigtails.

Yeah, true.

Sen-ne and Pachi Yumi
are completely different characters.

Honestly, which style
do you prefer, Atsushi?

Um, both make me uncomfortable.

-I mean… Personal preference.
-Personal preference. Let him cook.

What do you think of Captain's
"Operation Hibiscus?"

Sorry, it's too much trouble.

CAPTAIN, 48, FORMER PILOT
NINO, 42, MODEL

-He wants to team up with her twice a day…
-True.

…for a task that can be done alone.

That's a lot of extra effort.

Of course, I'd probably be thrilled
if someone I like suggested it.

Exactly. If he'd made that deal
with Ayakan,

I bet she'd start waiting
for him at midnight.

AYAKAN, 35, SECRETARY

That's so early. Way too early.

Unfortunately,
it's a rainy day.

Then…

You'll get wet.

Oh.

-Thank you.
-No problem.

Makio,
who works in construction

and has feelings for Tamifull,
holds an umbrella for her.

It's my first time sharing an umbrella.

-Your first time? Seriously?
-Isn't it?

-With you.
-Oh, with me.

-Yes.
-Yeah. True.

Makio comes to the village
calling himself Love Fighter

Either way,

-I've come here to ring the bell.
-That's cool.

Tamifull adores Sato,

so building Sato's shed with Makio
brings them closer together.

-It's so nice!
-They have good vibes.

With each passing day,

I definitely notice
my feelings growing stronger.

Oh, wow!

"Love Fighter has come to this village…

in search of true love."

Maybe keep that to yourself.

Makio wants to tell Tamifull
the meaning behind his name Love Fighter,

which he hasn't shared
with anyone else yet.

There's a meaning?

-Hey, there.
-Oh, hey.

-Are you good?
-Yeah.

First…

Well, I want to tell you why I call
myself "Love Fighter"

and why I came here.

Well, it comes from my past
experiences with love,

Mmm-hmm.

They're a big part of the reason.

I joined a host club.

I worked there around three or four years.

And I worked at a pretty famous place
in Kabukicho.

-It's a pretty well-known club.
-Oh.

My job…

was to flatter the customers.

I mean flatter, to flatter them.

I skipped a lot of sleep
so I could work hard.

I talked my head off to entertain them
and make them like me.

At the time, I was earning
four or five million yen a month.

-Wow.
-Oh, wow!

And I met a woman I wanted to be with,
even if it meant leaving all that behind.

When I thought about it,

what I could do
to prove my feelings to her,

I decided that for me, true love
would mean cutting ties with the world

where I was involved
with a bunch of girls.

So I quit my job as a host
and confessed my feelings to her.

But in the end, she turned me down.

Of course, it makes sense
now that I think about it.

I just quit my job.

So, I got a lot of genuine affection…

that took the form of money.

And I've been sharing small gestures
of love with everyone.

He's talking a lot.

So, after spending
a really long time alone…

and reflecting
on what it means to be human…

Yeah, she's like, "What's your point?"

So?

Like, there were definitely times
when I didn't care anymore.

So? So why?

Love Fighter.

That's why I call myself
"Love Fighter Makio."

I don't get it at all.

And I came to this village.

Actually, I didn't really get it.

I'm not surprised.

I actually didn't really get it.

But, he was talking so earnestly
that I couldn't say that to him.

He wanted everyone…

I guess he wanted
to express his love for everyone.

She forgot what he said.

I think that's what he meant.
Or at least that's how I understood it.

She came up
with her own interpretation.

Did I get it right?

Anything goes.

The next day…

It remains a mystery.

Makio's on cooking duty.

Makio gets to cook.

-We need an assistant.
-My turn.

Right.

From one of the ladies.

Do you want them to volunteer?

-I'll choose Tamifull.
-Okay.

-Okay.
-Yeah.

Slick moves.

Makio selects Tamifull
without thinking twice.

We cook it three hours
over low heat…

Oh, for three hours?

-You're amazing, Makio.
-Right.

Where did you learn to cook?

I had a part time job
at a Japanese bar.

-Oh, really?
-So, I cooked a little there.

Got it.

-He's had all sorts of experience.
-Oh, he's good.

-Please teach me.
-Okay.

Like this.

To avoid cutting your hand.

-There he goes.
-Is this okay?

Yeah. Good, good.

Hold it down here.

Good, good. Go slow. Yeah.
And press down a little.

I'm sure she knows that.

And you chop.

-Good, good, good.
-She's not Ayakan.

You're good.

-And if it gets hard to chop…
-I'm not good, though.

Hold it down firmly.
It's wobbling.

Good.

Good.

That's it.

-You're good at compliments.
-You're good. That's it.

The whole world will find out
I'm bad at cooking.

I should have worked part time
at a Japanese bar.

No, no.

The black one.

-I haven't seen it.
-Me either.

-I saw it while doing the dishes.
-For real?

Scoop it up and…

squeeze it
and you can remove the dirt like this.

-Huh? Really?
-Huh?

Good, good, like that.

-Go slow…
-Then, Nino…

Is she interested?

She didn't wanna hear them.

Doing things like this is fun.

I can guess what cooking
together will be like.

-True.
-You can imagine it.

-Dinnertime.
-Looks delicious.

-Thanks for assisting me.
-I should thank you.

-Let's dig in.
-Let's dig in.

-It's good, it's good.
-Is it good? Oh, I'm glad.

It's so delicious that I'm tearing up.

-It's seriously good. Amazing.
-Yeah, it's delicious.

-Yay!
-Yum.

-Impressive.
-One is, um…

The residents are thrilled
with Makio and Tamifull's cooking.

It's delicious.

However…

-Yum yum.
-Impressive.

-Cucumbers are chopped so nicely too.
-Nino's mood.

Amazing.

-He showed me.
-We did it together.

What's up here?

We got a "delicious"! Thank you!

Five stars!

Thank you!

Why does it feel like
she's in a different world?

Nino isn't smiling.

Yeah, the rest of them
are living it up.

Noticing that Nino seems down
for some reason, the staff asks her why.

Are you okay?
Are you feeling down?

Oh, am I feeling down?

Well, it seemed like
the two were already a couple.

-See?
-What?

I've been interested in Makio
from the start.

So…

He's the one I'm interested in.

The cooking so close together
and pairing up all the time,

and I'm thinking,
"You two are too close, too close."

What?

Yes. Even this morning…

If I went out in the morning,

he'd see me watering
the flowers with Captain,

and I'd feel pretty awkward afterward.

So, it was on purpose?

Nino doesn't want Makio to see
her watering the plants with Captain.

That's your reason?

-Seriously?
-There it is.

So she didn't join Captain because
she wasn't interested in him.

Nino, 42 - Makio, 39 - Captain, 49

So, she totally stood him up, didn't she?

She did.

I mean, she could see him.

Like, "Ugh, he's hanging around out there,
waiting to water the plants with me."

Then Pachi Yumi told her that
Captain was waiting

to water the plants with her.

And Nino was like,

"Ugh, I don't wanna be seen."

She joined him reluctantly.

Is this the first ever love pentagon?

But one-- no, if only someone
could connect all the arrows in the end.

Right. So true.

Right now,
the arrows are tangled.

Let's try and make sense of this.

Let's see…

If Tamifull had feelings for Tanasan,

and Tanasan had feelings for Ayakan, then…

-It would be a love hexagon!
-Yeah, yeah it would be.

But Nino and Makio joined the village
around the same time,

and right after Makio told her

-he has a strong libido.
-He did.

I was sure she was totally
put off by that,

but it turns out she was interested in him
from the start?

Yeah, ever since that conversation.

So that means she was thinking,
"Okay, I got it!"

She was like, "I'm okay with that."

-"I can handle it."
-She can handle it.

It means she was thinking,
"I can go all night if he wants to."

Every morning,

Tamifull prepares food
for her beloved Sato.

That's sweet.

That's sweet.

But today
is about to be unforgettable.

-What?
-What? All of a sudden?

Tamifull is about to feed Sato…

9:00 A.M.

What?

-What's wrong? Is she sick?
-She clearly seems unwell.

What?

The staff calls one vet
after another, but to no avail,

and it'll take time
to transport Sato to one as well.

She's not foaming at the mouth,
but her mouth is open.

Sato keeps getting
weaker and weaker.

The staff finally gets through
to a vet who can respond.

We have a towel over her
and she's lying on her side.

They asked for instructions
over the phone.

Is her nose white?

The bottom is black
and the top is a little white.

Is it becoming white?

Um, could you try
touching her tongue?

It's warm.

-It's not cold.
-Not cold.

Let's try giving her
something with calories.

-We have cotton pads?
-Yes.

Around her mouth.
A little at a time.

Not too much, just a little.

-She can't drink.
-She's cold.

-Cold.
-I don't think she'll make it.

The towel is cold too.

Tamifull, could you try touching
her eyeball for a moment?

I don't think
her heart is beating anymore.

Her heart might not be beating?

I think she's…

Yes.

Sato passes away
at 9:30 in the morning.

-No, really?
-What?

The residents struggle

-to process their emotions.
-Sorry.

Yeah.

Same with the staff.

We know how much you all cherished
Sato, and will cherish her memories…

So we'd like to join you
in saying goodbye to her.

I hope that's all right.

True.

What happened to Sato?

SHUNICHI KUDO
OKINAWA VETERINARY ASSOCIATION

If a goat catches a cold
or gets diarrhea

within the first week
to 10 days of being born,

it can really weaken their growth.

Also, the weather in Okinawa this year
has been hot and then cold,

and the cold can affect their health, too.

-This gradual decline is called cachexia.
-Yes.

And it can shorten their lifespan.

And there's nothing you can do about it.

-It's what happens to animals.
-Sorry.

It is decided that Sato
would be laid to rest where she was born.

I want to thank you all
for cherishing her.

I'm sorry.

She had a happy life because of all
the affection she received. Yeah…

Thank you so much.

Thank you so much.

I'm sorry, Sato.

Goodbye.

Be with your friends.

-It's all right.
-Thank you so much.

Please take care of her.

-I'll be going then.
-Yes.

SATO
REST IN PEACE, SATO

I see.

Today, after Sato departs…

All I could say was sorry.

Seeing how distraught
Tamifull is, Makio goes over to her.

-Tamifull?
-Hmm?

-Are you okay?
-Thanks.

Shall we sit down?

Maybe I should go home.
I was talking about heading home.

Would anyone like
some tea right now?

He keeps rubbing
Tamifull's back.

-Nino, tea.
-Oh, thanks.

Oh, she can't bear to watch.

AFTERNOON

Oh, Makio. Sorry.

There's nothing to apologize for.

It's okay.

EVENING

I feel much better.

Thanks to you.

Because you stayed by my side
the entire time.

Let all your tears out.

You don't have to hold back.

She seemed to be in pain.

I can't forget her face.

I remember her happy face too, though.

When you let slip
your true feelings

about wanting to go home…

It honestly scared me.

I imagine it's really hard
and painful right now.

But don't say things like
wanting to go home.

It's painful.

It's sad.

But…

from a different perspective…

I think…

it was a big gift from Sato.

For instance,
the importance of life

and discoveries
that help you grow a lot as a person.

I imagine…
I think it was a gift like that.

Why did you…

why did you say, "I think"
after saying "I imagine?"

It just came out naturally.

-Sorry for asking a weird question.
-It's totally fine.

That was kind of nice.

She was able to laugh a little,
even in her grief.

FROM TAMIFULL'S DIARY

For the first time,
Makio was there for me when it was tough.

-Who would have expected something so sad?
-It hurts.

Tamifull especially doted on her.

And Tamifull, more than anyone else,
has been taking life very seriously,

-including her own.
-True, yeah.

But now Sato will probably
always be watching over Love Village.

-True.
-Is that how this episode ends?

That's a first.

-Ending an episode with something so sad.
-True.

How in the world do we wrap up?

No clue.
