Face this way, please.

Splash, splash, splash…

What is this?

-It's easy in the tub.
-I'm just gonna watch.

The cockroach exercise.

Today, Love Village
kicks it off with exercises led by Sen-ne.

Healthy.

In fact, Sen-ne exercises
every day in the bathtub,

maintaining an impressive physique
for a 57-year-old.

It's true. She's beautiful.

Especially her neckline.

She's great.

I can lose a pound in one session
by doing this.

-A whole pound?
-What?

-Amazing.
-"Hawaii."

-So great!
-Wow! Amazing!

LOVE FIGHTER

In Love Village,
all the romances are one-sided.

Yeah, definitely.

Ayakan has feelings
for Captain, who is targeting Nino.

However, it's revealed
that Nino has feelings for Makio.

But Makio, in turn, has developed
stronger feelings for Tamifull.

Look, it's an "M."

And also, the Fifties'
love triangle takes a new turn!

-Okay, then.
-So now, in the girls' room…

-Should we hide our underwear over here?
-That'll be better probably.

Tanasan is here.

Tanasan will know
where to look if we don't.

Tanasan works today
with the Fifties and Nino.

Cute overalls, Tanasan.

I know, how about everyone…
um, shares their best qualities?

-People say I'm fun to be around.
-Oh, that's true.

-That's nice.
-Yes.

Guys say, "I can't date
regular girls anymore."

Wow.

-It means you're exciting.
-I am exciting. Yeah.

I wouldn't call it
my best quality,

but I can drink a lot.

-That's great.
-That's a good quality, too.

That can be a big deal.

This room began
as a renovation of an old pig pen

and now, it's almost finished.

-It's the last piece.
-I'm placing it now.

-It's finished.
-It's done.

-I got it.
-It's done!

-Yes.
-Thank you!

The girls' room is finished!

You worked really hard
to fix up the girls' room, huh?

-The once shabby, old pig pen…
-It really was.

-Totally.
-I think it's amazing.

…has been transformed
into a white-themed girls' room,

now offering a cool vibe
in the heat of Okinawa.

Oh, wow!

The once muddy room…

has been reborn
as a relaxing, resort-style space,

adorned with Ryukyu limestone.

-The walls are great.
-The plaster walls look cool.

It's so fancy.

-You wanna talk for a bit?
-Okay. Let's do that.

Should we have water
or something stronger?

A watered down drink.

After finishing their task,
Pachi Yumi invites Tanasan to chat.

Her ponytail.

-That was exhausting.
-You're exhausted?

Work like that
doesn't agree with you, huh?

Yes. You noticed that. I'm impressed.

The way you worked was a sign.

-Do you have a hobby?
-Oh, my hobby…

My hobby is…
I guess, it's American football.

Oh?

Tanasan was the captain
at Kobe University.

A renowned university
for American football.

After graduating, he joined
the ITOCHU Corporation, like Manhattan.

We have
a lot of former ITOCHU employees.

Even after
going out on his own,

he continued coaching American football.

That's really cool.

-Do you still play?
-Well, at the moment,

I'm coaching
at my son's former high school.

-Right now?
-Yeah.

-How do you stop them? Your hands?
-Oh…

With your hands and head.

-Like this? Oh…
-Yeah, yeah, yeah.

Like this… And then you shove.

Like sumo wrestling.

And you push.

So your main hobby
is coaching American football.

Yes. That's right.

-My hobby is, well, you already know.
-Yes.

-Well… It's taboo to say it.
-Taboo.

This is more natural.

Is this an arranged marriage meeting?

She's enjoying herself.

Yeah.

And, um…

By the way, have you always
laughed like that?

I think so.

Annoying?

-Hold on. Why do you ask?
-Right.

What I mean is, no matter where I am,

I can always tell where you are
when you laugh.

-Thank you so much.
-Yes. And thank you, too.

They grew a little closer.

Good question.

-Meanwhile, Sen-ne is troubled.
-What?

Were her feelings
for Tanasan romantic?

Oh, I see.

To help figure out if she's got
a hot spark of interest for Tanasan,

she came up with a game.

A game?

Hear me out! I want someone to kabedon me.

Please, kabedon me.

PLEASE KABEDON ME BY SEN-NE

That's an old one, lady.

First up,
with his experience as a host, is Makio.

What if I fall in love with him?

I bet he's good at it.

-Are you ready?
-Yes.

That would work with anyone.

-My heart's racing.
-That's menopause, honey.

-Nice.
-It's just a hot flash.

Makio has mentioned
that he used to be a host.

I could imagine what it might be like.

-She's feeling it.
-Yeah.

It was really fun.

Next up is Captain's kabedon.

He's ready. He looks so cool!

It's starting, here we go.

-He's setting the mood.
-They both are.

-Oh, cute.
-Cute.

-She's like a teenager.
-That's what he does.

Oh, her chin.

She's so girly.

She made a girly sound.

I was so surprised.

It's called the chin lift.
I wasn't expecting that.

So I was honestly surprised.

That's Captain for you.

Now it's time for Tanasan,
her main target.

-Let's go.
-His outfit isn't helping!

PACHI YUMI'S OVERALLS

Pachi Yumi.

Pachi Yumi!

-Tana-kun.
-No, you're not Pachi Yumi.

How was it?

Like, they're both laughing.

-How was Tanasan?
-How was it?

Hmm…

Not what she expected.

Did he make my heart race?

I wouldn't say that.

She shouldn't judge
based on that.

I want to enjoy romance, too,
because I'm actually a romantic at heart.

I get that, but…

For some reason,
Sen-ne's heart didn't race for Tanasan.

He did go third.

But in the not-too-distant future,

her heart will race for someone else.

-What?!
-What?

-Sen-ne will?
-Really?

THE NEXT DAY

They're getting crispy…

Dinner is takoyaki
and leftover Hamburg sticks. Then…

How many do you want?

-I'm good. Thanks.
-You're done?

Nino is cooking takoyaki
for Makio. However…

-Makio gives one to you, Tamifull.
-Oh!

-Have one of mine.
-That's sweet.

She won't like this.

He's not being mean, though.

-Oh, no.
-Oh, no.

-My heart's going to race.
-That's painful.

-Will you half your hamburger with me?
-Oh, sure.

He's so bold.

In front of everybody, too.

I'll have a little.

Whoa.

-Nino's pretty sensitive, so…
-Yeah.

I mean, that was too much.
That was way too much too much.

"Too much."

It's clear that Makio has stopped
spreading affection around to everyone.

Oh, I see.

Yeah.

After dinner…

That's painful.

Isn't this place awesome?

For some reason,
Makio asks Nino to chat.

His reason is…

I noticed lately that,
more and more you've looked sad.

Mm-mmm…

I wondered if something was bothering you.

-I'm impressed.
-He doesn't know…

-I see you.
-You do?

It's a nice thing to hear.

He shows his concern for Nino,
who seems down.

But Love Fighter's kindness
later leads to a tricky development.

What?

I thought I'd never pair up again.

-You totally would. Yeah.
-Really?

It's like, whenever we talk,

you have this carefree
and optomistic personality.

"Optimistic."

It's not optomistic.

"Optimistic." Right, right.

-It's a great trait to have, right?
-Yeah.

-Yeah. It's the best one on the market.
-Yeah, sure. Thank you.

I just think you're a wonderful woman.

Oh, thank you.

Give yourself the green light
to be more aggressive.

Instead of just waiting,

I think you should start making moves.

That's great advice.

Be more confident.

It's great, but he might
be encouraging her in the wrong way.

Never give up.

Huh?

What's she thinking?

We talked privately and now
I'm confused all over again.

Oh…

Some of the things he said…
He was like, "Try harder."

He was telling me to go for it.

I mean, maybe I should try harder.

I see.

Nino was on the fence
about pursuing Makio.

I'd like to do a project with Makio.

For so long, they were working
on Sato's shed.

-I mean, Makio and Tamifull.
-They did.

I just think that working one on one

speeds up the process
of getting to know somebody.

If you had the chance,
would you approach him?

I think so.
I'm not sure, but I'll try.

Go for it, girl.

THE NEXT DAY

Will Nino find a way to work
one on one with Makio?

-I'm excited to work.
-Oh, yeah?

-I'm already dressed.
-Oh, nice.

Yeah. See?

Oh, yeah. Nice.

Casually, she hints
that she wants to work with him.

It's green, mist green.

But she didn't say "together."

Well, somebody's
very excited to work today.

-I am.
-Excited to work in the field?

Yeah. I'd like to work in the field.

So Nino's in the field with the men

and one of us works in the field

and one inside.

-Who's with Nino?
-I'll do either.

-Let's rock, paper, scissors.
-I can go to the field.

And, of course.

-I'm excited.
-You're not.

-If you were, you wouldn't be in shorts.
-Mosquitos will eat your legs.

Okay, then.

-Okay, let's bang it out then.
-Let's do this.

You can ask someone
to work with you, right?

You can,
but she's not brave enough yet.

The next day…

Okay. Three tasks today.

-First, putting down the floor.
-Right.

The second
is re-papering the doors.

And finally, taking the lamps
and transforming them

to create a resort style vibe
for Love Village.

The task will be to set up these lamps.

-Okay.
-I'll set the lamps with Nino.

Oh, man.
Oh jeez, she didn't hide anything there.

She's like, "Didn't want that."

Like, "Not you."

Okay, let's go.

-Oh, boy.
-I see.

Nino was once again
invited by Captain.

This time to set up the lamps.

She really needs to be more vocal.

Her crush, Makio,
ends up working with Tamifull yet again.

Ugh! Should've just
chosen Makio to work with me.

-Hmm…
-Yeah.

I mean, I feel like such an idiot.

Don't call yourself that.

In the moment,
I really wanted him to choose me.

-I get it.
-I see.

She wanted to wait for it.

The lamps they created together
brightened up the old house,

giving it a wonderfully warm glow.

This is sad.

She wanted Makio to be excited.

I think women just tend to wait
for the guy to make a move.

It's true.

I wonder what Makio
was really trying to say to Nino.

-He doesn't know she likes him, right?
-I think so.

-It's like a comedy skit.
-Misunderstandings?

-Many misunderstandings.
-Exactly.

What's your take
on Tanasan and Pachi Yumi?

Pachi Yumi was having a great time.

I've never seen her laugh that much.

Did you notice her hair
was different every day?

Oh, didn't notice.

She's done a ponytail,
a bun and worn it loose.

Oh, yeah! You're right.

-I guess she's in love.
-She totally is.

-With Tanasan.
-Yeah.

If she is,

she needs to relax
and not be so formal with him.

I think she's embarrassed and hiding it.

Because she's speaking formally,
Tanasan's got his knees together.

-He's all stiff.
-Yeah.

My take on her is that

partly because her daughter
is a celebrity,

she's constantly aware she's being filmed

and feels really embarrassed
about everyone knowing how she feels.

Yeah.

She can't help wanting to hide it.

She does look
at the camera sometimes.

Exactly.

Yeah, she does.

You're right. Let's use this one.

Today, they have run out
of instant coffee,

a precious commodity
in their 500-yen-a-day life.

All right.

So…

He's with Ayakan.
They're adding water.

All right.

Hot!

-Wow.
-Hot, hot.

You do the same with shampoo.

I can't believe we're doing this.

Captain, you're cute.

Oh, boy. She's in love.

It's time for Ayakan to enjoy
the last of the coffee with Captain.

How do you hit on somebody?

I don't think that I would.

What?

It's about distance.

I think it's about closing the distance.

Like, going out
to eat together more frequently

Mmm…

And then, she'd start to get it.

Do you have a favorite way
to get somebody to fall for you?

Huh? You mean for me?

Yeah. Fall for you. If you were a host
and I were your customer

and you wanted me to order a bottle,
what would you say?

-What a metaphor.
-What a way to put it.

You need to know that I'm starting
to have feelings for you, Ayakan.

-So I want you to stay longer.
-That's a funny illustration.

I'd say that.

She looks happy.

-I'll order a bottle.
-So easy.

-That was too easy.
-Oh, boy.

-They had a good laugh at least.
-She's got a great smile.

Oh, the rain,

In Love Village,
after the rain,

a single snail appears.

Although it appears slow,

the snail is desperately moving forward
at its own pace.

Yes, just like that man.

The innocent,
52-year-old Gitarin returns to the village

after taking time to cool off.

-Two guitars?
-Another guitar!

-Makio.
-Hey, man.

Well, this is a surprise.

-Welcome back.
-I'm back.

-How was it?
-What's that pouch thingy?

I'm back.

Huh? Welcome back.

First, I wanna apologize
in front of everyone…

Oh.

-…before doing anything.
-Of course you can.

-Were you able to reflect?
-Yes, I was.

-You won't disrespect.
-I won't, I won't. Yeah.

-Are you sure you will be respectful?
-I'll be respectful. I will.

Always read the room
and know when you should hold back.

-I will. Yeah, I will.
-Promise?

-Always here for you.
-Thank you.

Sweet Makio.

Everyone
starts gathering in the yard.

Wow!

EXTREMELY NERVOUS

Makio should be there
to support him.

Hi, guys.

Um… I wrote an apology.

-He's a good guy.
-Nino…

-Huh? Hold on now.
-First, I'm really sorry.

I made you feel uncomfortable.

I tried to show you
how determined I was through my actions.

I'm really sorry.

And to everyone,

it's fine if you don't like me.

That's fine, that's okay.

You can't go through life without venting.

-So please let it out.
-He's trying not to laugh.

I'll absorb it all. I promise.

I'll try again to win the love
of these potential wives.

I'll never give up.

As many times as it takes.

The man I want to be is someone
who, even through sickness,

even if his wife says,
"I hate you, go away," he won't do it.

He'll never leave
and always stay by her side fully devoted.

-I need you. I need you.
-"I need you"?

I want… Only I need you.

I'll dedicate my all to you.

Give me another chance, please.

The guitar's trying to escape!
Did someone press pause?

Ayakan takes a moment
to speak her mind.

I'm not sure if I can see you in that way.

That's so harsh.

But please don't do anything
we might not like anymore.

-Yes. I promise.
-Good.

I can tell that you're making
an effort to change.

I think I might be able
to enjoy working with you again.

So I hope you keep that in mind.

-Yes. I promise.
-Raise your head now.

He finally put the guitars down.

Do you really get
why everyone is saying this to you?

Mmm…

I think it's love.

Well, it might be love,

but to be honest,
you're the one who created the situation.

Yes. Right.

I bet Makio
is being harsh on purpose.

Well, um… Well…

I wrote a song
but it might be the right time.

-Yeah, we don't want a song.
-It's not. It's not.

-Don't want a song.
-We weren't waiting for a song.

It's part of who you are.

I like that about you
but think about the others.

All right. I accept that.

Does he get it?

He expresses himself
by singing and playing.

-Yes, he does.
-How about we wrap this up?

I think so.

They've forgiven him.

And so,
Gitarin makes his return to the village.

-Welcome back.
-How many pouch bags did he bring?

-Women's pouches.
-He sits outside and sings.

I want to be the one
To make you feel glad you were born

-Oh…
-Oh…

I need to be the one to let you know…

-I'm glad he didn't sing earlier.
-I know.

Then someone arrives.

-Gitarin…
-Thanks, Ayakan.

Worrying about him,
Ayakan comes over to say hi.

Oh. Here we go again.

I think you should lay low for a while.

For like, three days.
You shouldn't say anything.

-Should I sing quietly?
-You shouldn't. Hmm?

He shouldn't.

-You really shouldn't.
-The timing isn't right.

Don't laugh so much.

Let's be quiet. Quiet. Let's be quiet.

-Wonderful. I think it's great.
-That's great advice.

Then Gitarin says…

I wanna hear your story.

So right now…

are you waiting for an opportunity?
For a chance?

Yeah.

I hope you get a chance.

I want to know whether he wants kids.

-I see.
-Oh…

If you had a girl, what would the name be?

I want to use
the kanji character for "praise."

Huh? Oh.

-The Sino-Japanese reading…
-How do you read this in Sino-Japanese?

Ho? Hoko?

No. Just "Ho" sounds cute too.

Ho! Isn't that cute?

Ho, come here.

-They get along, don't they?
-You can call her a Ho, or Ho-chan.

-Ho-chan.
-Ho, Ho-chan.

It's unique.

Ho.

A single character name?

For the first time
in a long time, Gitarin has a good laugh.

-I'm glad.
-That's good.

-The man is back.
-Interesting that he's back.

Gitarin's back.

-It doesn't feel like he's changed at all.
-No, no.

The fact that he didn't sing
shows he's changing quite a bit.

The old Gitarin
would have insisted to play.

-Yeah.
-He would have forced it.

-Okay, he's changed.
-Yeah.

I'm glad, then. It's for the best.

If you are going to apologize,

-you should do it in your native language.
-Yes, you should.

Nobody seemed to understand him, either.

It seemed like it.

-They didn't get it and neither did we.
-I was lost.

But why were we so excited
when he returned?

-True. Yeah. I was like…
-"Oh, Gitarin's here!"

I was happy to see him.

-Deep down, a part of us missed him.
-Right.

But the others seem
to be allergic to his guitar.

Like, "No more."

If you take away his guitar,
then Gitarin will just be Rin.

-I mean, his name is "Gitarin."
-That's right. That's true.

-We can't do that.
-I guess we can't. Sorry.

-Gitarin's his name.
-That's true.

-It's his identity.
-Yeah.

-A heart shape.
-A heart.

Today, Makio and Tamifull
are chatting at the old house.

Oh, these two.

Should we talk about you and me?

Sure.

I need to have
a more serious conversation with Tamifull.

Like income and money.

It's important to discuss
if marriage is on the line.

-What? Is he making his move?
-He's made up his mind.

So Love Fighter decides
to share everything with Tamifull.

Including his flaws.

I'm scared.

-What's it like to imagine it?
-Imagine?

Like my future? Oh, if I get married?

Yes. If you and me got together,
what'd that be like?

Have you thought about it?

I have. Yeah.
We'd be in a long-distance relationship.

LIVES IN SENDAI - LIVES IN TOKYO

Talking face to face
makes a big difference, doesn't it?

Face…

FaceTime could work, maybe…

If we were to video chat or something.

The neighbor downstairs in my apartment
loves to complain and would throw a fit.

-They can hear you from downstairs?
-Can't even video call?

I live in a wooden building.

Move to a concrete one then.

-This is pretty detailed.
-More about your family first, yeah?

So when I was a teenager,
I was very rebellious.

When I turned 16, 17…

Around 17, I left for Tokyo.

Mm-hmm…

Seventeen?

-Did you finish high school?
-No.

Huh?

Did that turn her off? What now?

As far as my work goes,
does it bother you at all?

Is there a risk you might end up
with no yearly income?

Yeah. If my health goes south, I'm done.

She's like…

If my husband
didn't have any income,

I'd have to support both of us.

So thinking about that…

That's… Uh…

-It's true.
-I can't say that I'm okay with that.

At all, really.

Huh?

Well, to be honest,

I have a lot…

of concerns.

His job seems temporary.

And in the worst-case scenario,
he might lose his job.

Only a junior high education

and long distance…

-Oh…
-Sure.

Tamifull lacks the words
to explain her feelings at the moment.

This is
what's special about Love Village.

Exactly.

You talk
about the practical stuff.

Alone in the kitchen,
Tamifull prepares a meal.

Hmm…

-She's really thinking about it.
-She is.

What's
the ideal yearly income, then?

-I see.
-Yearly income.

Is she talking
to the camera guy?

I discussed that type of stuff
with Makio today.

-Took him by surprise.
-His job is temporary.

He's like, "Don't talk to me."

Are you all freelancers? Freelancers?

-I'm a freelancer.
-You are. Is your income unpredictable?

Well…

He's like, "Well…"

Since that day, Makio now
writes something in his notebook each day.

Mmm?

Huh? He's focused.

That never crosses…

-Is he singing?
-He is.

-A duo perhaps?
-Huh?

Kind of like Yuzu?

Lonely…

-You're kidding.
-Oh.

As "Love Fighter",
Makio has come seeking true love.

Looks like the wife now.

And he fell in love
with Tamifull.

And he shared the personal meaning
behind "Love Fighter."

-This didn't work.
-It didn't get through.

What I could do
to prove my feelings to her.

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

where I was involved
with a bunch of girls.

But he was rejected, right?

Tamifull came to the village
after beating stage four breast cancer.

She faced death and then beat cancer.
She defied death.

Because she has
such a positive way of looking at life,

it allows me to be myself.

Then came
the sudden death of our little Sato.

This was painful.

Throughout Tamifull's grief,
Makio stayed by her side.

And now, his love for her is certain.

But are her feelings
as strong as his?

Determined,
Makio calls on Gitarin.

See?

-They're a duo!
-A duo!

You know, seeing you enjoy yourself…

-Well…
-It really…

-It's so infectious and funny.
-Thanks.

Right.

Try not to cause awkwardness.

Take care of yourself.

Listen to your heart,
so you don't have any regrets.

-That's my hope for you.
-Makio is really sweet.

I dropped some egg.

Sorry about that. My bad.

-A bird will eat it.
-A bird?

As if a miracle like that
would happen.

-And…
-All right.

What?

-What?!
-Wait.

Makio heads to…

Right now?

…the Love Bell.

When you find someone you love,

you ring the Love Bell
and confess your feelings.

He's taking things too fast. What?

-For real?
-Makio!

What?!

-Oh, he went for it.
-He could sense it.

-Gitarin could sense it.
-From Makio's message earlier.

-He rang the bell.
-How will Nino feel?

Oh!

Oh no. This is tough.

Oh, yeah.

Oh, gosh.

Right when she was going for it.

He was a step ahead
on a different path.

Nino's trying to smile.

Tamifull.

Yes.

Oh, she knows.

Can I have a moment, please?

Okay.

-Oh…
-Oh!

-What?
-Good luck.

Go for it, brother!

I love Nino's bravery.

She must have mixed feelings.

Oh!

-Now?
-Oh, my gosh.

Seriously?

I can't believe he rang that soon.

I don't know.

There's a weird vibe.

-Yeah, in the village.
-In the village and him, too.

What is happening?

-Do you feel like something is off?
-We were caught off guard.

Only one was saying, "Go for it!"

Rin.

It's not Rin. It's Gitarin.

-Oh, Gitarin.
-Don't take the guitar!

I'm curious what Makio was writing
in his notebook while he was humming.

-I got a bad feeling about this.
-Yes.

What will Tamifull do?

-Will she say yes?
-Will she?

Or reject him and stay in the village?

What's the point of staying
if she doesn't like the other guys?

This is so hard.
