00:00:22	NORIKO'S DINNER TABLE
00:00:40	December 2001
00:00:53	I tore off a thread that was
00:01:01	I had run away from home.
00:01:07	I arrived at Tokyo Station.
00:01:25	Female, age 17.
00:01:36	Just a kid. That was me.
00:01:53	I carried my big bag pretending
00:02:05	Walked to Ginza.
00:02:11	It was right before Christmas.
00:02:17	Bright with neon lights.
00:02:29	Everyone was better dressed than me,
00:02:46	NORIKO
00:02:49	I had a father, a mother,
00:03:11	I'm done.
00:03:16	Eat, Noriko.
00:03:19	When she has a problem,
00:03:23	I was 17.
00:03:26	Always fighting with
00:03:31	He wanted me to go to a local university,
00:03:35	I knew it would be boring.
00:03:38	I wouldn't find a boyfriend
00:03:46	He peeled a tangerine
00:03:54	Boys in Tokyo are worthless...and...
00:04:00	He hesitated to say.
00:04:04	But I knew. My cousins.
00:04:07	Sato and Kei got pregnant
00:04:12	Taeko? Hello.
00:04:16	Sato and Kei just came by.
00:04:22	Dad thought,
00:04:28	Boys are trouble...
00:04:32	I watched the neatly
00:04:34	...slowly return
00:04:40	Tangerine, tangerine...
00:04:43	Orange-colored tangerine.
00:04:47	I had a friend named Tangerine
00:04:53	I thought people called her that
00:05:01	I had thought that...
00:05:05	One day, when I was with Yuka,
00:05:11	Norippe?
00:05:15	It's me. Tangerine.
00:05:19	I didn't recognize her at first.
00:05:26	What's up, Norippe?
00:05:27	No one called me that anymore.
00:05:33	Do you know which school
00:05:35	Her uniform?
00:05:37	You have no idea, right?
00:05:43	It wasn't her school uniform.
00:05:47	She said that after junior high...
00:05:49	...she began working at an "image club"
00:05:53	I'm handing out packets
00:05:55	"All-Girl Fantasy School"
00:05:56	I've heard of this place.
00:06:02	That's the school I go to now.
00:06:06	That was the day I found out why she was
00:06:10	Okay, class. Who do you admire?
00:06:14	Mom and Dad.
00:06:16	In 2nd grade, the teacher asked,
00:06:23	Tangerine.
00:06:25	That's how I got my nickname.
00:06:30	No.
00:06:31	I don't know why I said that.
00:06:37	She laughed loudly.
00:06:41	Gotta go to work.
00:06:44	Nice seeing you.
00:06:46	Bye.
00:06:50	I still love tangerines.
00:06:55	She waved goodbye and left.
00:07:01	On our way home,
00:07:07	I was shocked that
00:07:13	I admire Tangerine.
00:07:18	So am I.
00:07:22	You don't understand.
00:07:25	What?
00:07:27	Life as a woman.
00:07:34	All I did was skip class and read
00:07:42	Tangerine was so inspiring to me.
00:07:47	Idiot.
00:07:48	Yuka called me an idiot.
00:07:51	She's a whore.
00:07:53	You don't even like being a woman.
00:08:00	All I'm saying is,
00:08:05	Are you saying that 'cause Dad is
00:08:14	Gotta go. Bye.
00:08:19	Adults...
00:08:23	My father was an adult...
00:08:31	He was a reporter for a local
00:08:38	It didn't matter if there was a war
00:08:43	Come here!
00:08:45	Yeah, I'm coming.
00:08:47	- It was a deer?
00:08:49	they only reported local news...
00:08:52	Ah, but today is a wonderful day.
00:08:55	"Deer Rampage Continues"
00:09:00	Trivial, local news.
00:09:03	"Shoppers Galore"
00:09:12	Great. Look this way. Okay, cheese.
00:09:16	"Cactus Park Breaks
00:09:18	Just peaceful stuff.
00:09:19	I love this town... and
00:09:22	I had no interest in his work.
00:09:25	I love this town... and
00:09:27	But I ended up writing
00:09:34	Published once a month.
00:09:45	I was editor-in-chief.
00:09:50	Let's ask for more computer time.
00:09:53	Pleased to meet you.
00:09:58	I thought Dad's paper was
00:10:04	So, by writing pieces
00:10:08	I felt I was rebelling
00:10:14	For example, advocating unlimited
00:10:27	I think we should be able to
00:10:39	'Cause if we could,
00:10:45	...information.
00:10:48	I think we deserve that.
00:10:53	Yeah, but...
00:10:54	The rules must be changed.
00:11:00	We only had one PC at home.
00:11:06	I'm still using it.
00:11:13	Cactus Park was fun, huh?
00:11:18	Noriko angry because she can't use
00:11:24	One more picture.
00:11:28	Let's take a picture together here.
00:11:31	Excuse me, would you mind?
00:11:34	Thank you.
00:11:39	Let's go over there.
00:11:43	I was a teenage girl stuck in the boondocks.
00:11:48	I wanted to talk to girls
00:11:53	so I wanted to go
00:11:57	Gotta get out of here.
00:12:01	Go somewhere different.
00:12:05	What?
00:12:08	I'm definitely going.
00:12:15	Am I crazy?
00:12:16	Whatever.
00:12:18	I wanted to go
00:12:23	but I didn't know where.
00:12:27	Stubborn, ditsy, rebellious, reckless.
00:12:36	After a while, the teacher decided
00:12:42	What's the verdict?
00:12:45	Good news, we can grant your request.
00:12:47	Really?
00:12:57	I had a favorite website.
00:13:01	A strange name...
00:13:05	There, 16- and 17-year-old girls talked
00:13:11	I quickly became a regular member.
00:13:18	The name of French perfume.
00:13:20	When I became Mitsuko,
00:13:26	And I made some friends.
00:13:30	Hello, Cripple #5.
00:13:35	"To Mitsuko: Hello. "
00:13:40	Hello, Long Neck.
00:13:48	Hello, Midnight.
00:13:54	Hello, Broken Dam.
00:13:59	"To Mitsuko: Hello. "
00:14:07	And Ueno Station 54...
00:14:11	Hello, Ueno Station 54.
00:14:17	"To Mitsuko: Hello. "
00:14:20	Whenever Ueno Station 54 showed up,
00:14:27	It was like we were all standing on a
00:14:34	And the conversation would begin.
00:14:41	I'm walking...
00:14:48	I'm on top of it.
00:14:51	I was happy and surprised that
00:15:00	They were girls in Tokyo.
00:15:01	They were girls in Tokyo.
00:15:09	(Everything OK?)
00:15:15	But you haven't even met
00:15:20	As I was about to tell him
00:15:26	...to meet my friends...
00:15:33	The power went out.
00:15:36	Our house was very old.
00:15:45	No big deal.
00:15:50	Looks like the breaker has switched off.
00:15:51	Yuka came out of her room.
00:15:55	Turn the power back on, Dad.
00:16:11	Taeko, is everything all right?
00:16:14	The breaker isn't fixing it.
00:16:16	Dec. 10, 2001.
00:16:22	A cold winter night.
00:16:30	In the dark, I packed my bags.
00:16:33	Tokyo, Tokyo, Tokyo...
00:16:36	I had no idea what was in Tokyo,
00:16:43	I had to find out.
00:16:47	The important things in my room...
00:16:54	I looked for all the things
00:16:56	What did I really need?
00:16:59	What is it?
00:17:01	I was born to breathe.
00:17:06	I inhaled oxygen and exhaled
00:17:14	I wanted to go somewhere different,
00:17:21	Female, 17, ditsy, stubborn, rebellious.
00:17:35	I just realized that I was a virgin.
00:17:40	Everything made me
00:17:41	Just everything. But I
00:17:44	I was worried about everything and nothing.
00:17:48	Men, life, love, growing up...
00:17:55	Life was weird.
00:17:57	I wanted to tackle something.
00:18:06	I wanted to live, challenge, wish,
00:18:14	...see, stare, understand, hear,
00:18:24	...and be there.
00:18:26	I wanted to stand on with my own heart.
00:18:35	I had to talk to Ueno Station 54.
00:18:41	I knew she'd be there.
00:18:52	www. haikyo. com
00:19:02	To the message board.
00:19:10	"Ueno Station 54?
00:19:16	"I finally ran away from home
00:19:21	"I'm at an internet cafe now.
00:19:29	"Can we meet in person tomorrow?
00:19:36	"Maybe I'll be free forever. "
00:19:42	"I've been pretending to be busy until now.
00:19:51	"Suddenly without restraint,
00:19:58	"Like I'm walking around naked.
00:20:06	"Today, I realized I'm still a virgin. "
00:20:11	"Maybe that's because
00:20:30	I sound like any other girl.
00:20:38	Did I disappoint her?
00:20:43	We met online this past summer.
00:20:50	Ueno Station 54 had been a moderator
00:20:58	- "To Mitsuko: How are you?"
00:21:04	She replied to all the messages
00:21:10	Hello, I'm Mitsuko.
00:21:16	"Be strong, Mitsuko. "
00:21:20	"You can do it, Mitsuko!"
00:21:22	I became Mitsuko and tried so hard
00:21:30	I wondered. Could Noriko meet
00:21:39	I realized that I wasn't Mitsuko.
00:21:46	I was afraid that Ueno Station 54
00:21:53	I received her reply.
00:22:04	She wrote
00:22:12	I went to Ueno right away.
00:22:24	SHIMABARA
00:22:49	MITSUKO
00:23:00	I set my alarm for 9 AM.
00:23:08	I needed 2 hours to get ready.
00:23:14	Be ready emotionally, breakfast,
00:23:24	I faded into darkness.
00:23:29	I was ripe for growth.
00:23:42	I didn't dream. But when I got up,
00:23:49	Being active, I was happy.
00:24:00	I was Mitsuko.
00:24:10	Once again, I tore off a thread
00:24:17	I had left home...
00:24:37	I didn't know what
00:24:51	Where is #54?
00:24:53	I don't know.
00:24:56	What's #54?
00:24:58	No idea. Sorry.
00:25:01	Almost 11 AM.
00:25:06	I should have left my luggage

00:25:42	It's close.
00:25:52	54.
00:26:04	Ueno Station 54?
00:26:09	Mitsuko?
00:26:14	6 months later,
00:26:19	That happened.
00:26:37	54 high school girls threw
00:26:46	They hide their inner selves.
00:26:50	"7:29 PM, Track 8"
00:26:51	According to the police press
00:26:55	Here is an eyewitness testimony.
00:27:07	What a tragic occurrence.
00:27:09	According to the police press conference:...
00:27:13	The 54 girls were not all from the same

00:27:24	I t was horrible. The platform
00:27:37	I wanted to be silly.
00:27:45	Like all the girls my age,
00:27:54	I hated crying.
00:28:00	YUKA
00:28:04	Yuka, stop.
00:28:07	Thought I'd jump?
00:28:10	Just kidding.
00:28:11	Ever considered suicide?
00:28:13	No.
00:28:14	Maybe my sister killed herself.
00:28:18	Being silly.
00:28:19	You know the recent
00:28:23	At Shinjuku?
00:28:25	I hear most victims
00:28:30	They're still trying to

00:28:37	Hand in hand...One, two, three!
00:28:41	You sound amused.
00:28:45	But I couldn't help it.
00:28:47	They jumped so happily, right?
00:28:51	No, she just ran away.
00:28:56	You think so?
00:28:58	Yeah.
00:29:02	Maybe.
00:29:03	What, you want her dead?
00:29:06	I understand, Sis.

00:29:28	How?
00:29:32	It's a secret.
00:29:34	A secret?
00:29:36	And I know what it is.
00:29:39	Hey, common. Tell me, Yuka.
00:29:43	Wait, Yuka. Tell me!
00:29:53	Stop! Check this out.

00:30:02	Stop.
00:30:04	Fine.
00:30:05	What's this?
00:30:08	The night before the mass suicide,
00:30:18	It's a signal.
00:30:20	A signal? For suicide?
00:30:23	Yeah.
00:30:26	Or maybe a threat.
00:30:27	What's this?
00:30:31	Am I connected to myself, Sis?
00:30:32	"Are you connected to yourself?"
00:30:37	Ueno Station 54?
00:30:40	Mitsuko?
00:30:48	Hi, I'm Kumiko.

00:31:27	"That day, I was suffering from PMS,

00:32:10	"Her grandma came out and
00:32:15	"The grandma and Kumiko's parents

00:32:34	I wondered what Yuka would think
00:32:39	I kind of thought she had been

00:32:52	See ya.
00:32:53	Wait. Hey, wait up!
00:32:57	I wondered what she'd think

00:38:51	I kept hearing my sister's voice,
00:39:00	My sister's voice...
00:39:12	Taeko. Taeko...
00:39:17	Dad was shocked that
00:39:29	Where are you?
00:39:31	It was a month after I ran away...
00:39:36	...that Dad finally started
00:39:45	"Daddy"
00:39:53	He quit his job right after I left.
00:39:57	Listen...
00:40:02	I quit.
00:40:04	For a few weeks, he had searched

00:41:59	What's wrong?
00:42:03	Nothing.
00:42:05	He thought it would be like saying
00:42:11	Like saying aliens had
00:42:21	There was no way
00:42:30	He became more and more convinced
00:42:42	He was afraid. It would be wading into

00:43:56	After 3 months of investigation,
00:44:05	"1. The Suicide Club exists. "
00:44:11	"2. Members meet on Haikyo.com"
00:44:17	"3. The dots onHaikyo.com
00:44:22	"The white ones are men.
00:44:44	What was I writing?
00:44:57	Where's Tangerine?
00:45:00	I don't know.
00:45:06	On to the last scene.
00:45:12	What has the power to get the magma flowing?
00:45:15	Tetsuzo tried to speculate...
00:45:21	But he told himself to
00:45:27	He wrote so hard that he could see
00:45:35	Wait...
00:45:48	What if I tore this page from
00:45:57	Who would shade my blank pages
00:46:04	I managed to reach my sister's heart.
00:46:18	Nobody would care about my imprint.
00:46:30	A beautiful day in Toyokawa...
00:46:35	That was the last time
00:46:40	And the last time
00:46:48	KUMIKO
00:46:54	What's wrong?
00:46:57	Nothing.
00:47:00	PMS?
00:47:03	Kumiko...Ueno Station?
00:47:06	Call me Ueno Station if you want.
00:47:09	Real name?
00:47:22	Here.
00:47:26	Hello.
00:47:30	Grandma, it's been so long.
00:47:34	The first day, we went to
00:47:40	I'm almost done with elementary school.
00:47:43	Good for you.
00:47:51	I wasn't related to them at all,
00:47:59	...and it was cozy.
00:48:06	They were the epitome of happiness.
00:48:16	I had lived as a member of the
00:48:24	But we had been cold and distant.
00:48:31	The bonds holding Kumiko's family together
00:48:35	Each relationship an artery of happiness
00:48:39	Kumiko's happy family.
00:48:43	I wanted so badly to be
00:48:53	We'll visit again.
00:48:55	We waved and said goodbye to Grandma...
00:49:01	...and then left for another
00:49:30	Come on, Mitsuko.
00:50:02	The other grandmother also
00:50:10	How are you?
00:50:14	They greeted each other.
00:50:17	This time I wasn't so nervous
00:50:21	The conversation went on exactly
00:50:24	This is my classmate Mitsuko.
00:50:30	Thanks.
00:50:38	The most ideal brother
00:50:45	Kumiko helped her mom in the kitchen.
00:50:50	The perfect mother and daughter.
00:50:54	Hey, Shingo! Come on! Dad!
00:50:59	Kumiko's dad gave Grandma
00:51:04	Could there be a more family-like family
00:51:10	Make yourself at home, Mitsuko.
00:51:15	She called me Mitsuko.
00:51:19	I, as Mitsuko, became
00:51:26	"The most important thing
00:51:36	"I'm connected to myself, Yuka"
00:51:41	"You understand, Yuka?"
00:51:45	The members of Kumiko's family
00:52:20	Wait 5 minutes, then come inside.
00:52:25	Okay...
00:52:57	Grandpa.
00:53:00	You're late, Mitsuko.
00:53:03	Where were you?
00:53:06	Mitsuko.
00:53:07	Come see your grandfather.
00:53:12	Mitsuko is here.
00:53:16	Mitsuko...
00:53:20	Come closer...
00:53:26	Grandpa!
00:53:32	Grandpa.
00:54:36	The new girl is good.
00:54:40	He likes you.
00:54:43	Good job.
00:55:01	You even change your toothbrush
00:55:09	Pick yours.
00:55:17	I'll take this one.
00:55:33	A great story opens your eyes.
00:55:43	There was a baby born in a locker.
00:55:48	Born in a locker?
00:55:51	Years later, the mother found out
00:55:59	...see her.
00:56:00	No way.
00:56:02	They met.
00:56:03	Really?
00:56:05	Yeah, but the woman was a bad actress.
00:56:23	Once upon a time, there was a family.
00:56:34	They were seemingly happy.
00:56:41	However...
00:56:56	The mother was smart and polite.
00:57:02	The father was hard-working.
00:57:07	But he didn't try to understand
00:57:19	That's why they ran away.
00:57:21	The first time in Tokyo's Suginami Ward.
00:57:25	Stray cats roamed the back alleys
00:57:33	Stray cats form families instantly.
00:57:39	No need to feel sorry for them.
00:57:52	We have to relate to each other
00:58:01	We own Tokyo, OK?
00:58:04	We do?
00:58:09	Cool.
00:58:16	While I was chewing gum,
00:58:21	"Yes, we own Tokyo. "
00:58:50	A middle-aged man came out.
00:59:00	What are you wearing?
00:59:10	Get in.
00:59:22	We went inside.
00:59:30	At that point, I had no idea
00:59:37	But I knew Kumiko would tell me.
00:59:42	This way.
00:59:47	I walked down the hall.
00:59:51	I saw many mortuary tablets
00:59:58	Photographs.
01:00:20	We went into the living room
01:00:25	Sit!
01:00:48	He lit a cigarette.
01:00:56	I looked at Kumiko.
01:01:02	She closed her eyes.
01:01:13	Don't cry, stupid.
01:01:15	But...
01:01:17	I'm not a kid anymore.
01:01:40	Dad.
01:01:45	My turn.
01:01:48	Dad looked at me with teary eyes.
01:01:55	I was his daughter.
01:02:03	Suddenly, I had a vision
01:02:08	Headline "Dad is Lonely"
01:02:12	No, not true.
01:02:16	That wasn't my dad.
01:02:33	He looked depressed.
01:02:40	Ever since you girls disappeared,
01:02:54	...thinking about you nonstop.
01:03:03	I didn't forget for a moment.
01:03:09	We shouldn't have come back.
01:03:16	Wait.
01:03:17	We ran down the hall,
01:03:25	I heard Dad sobbing behind me.
01:03:30	I couldn't stop.
01:03:34	You crying?
01:03:36	Let's go back, OK?
01:03:39	Slurring my words, I tried to
01:03:49	Let's go back.
01:03:53	Yes, let's go back.
01:04:29	Let's do everything over.
01:04:31	Can you hear me, Yuka?
01:04:37	I cried with my face buried
01:04:43	I had never done anything like that.
01:04:48	I was moved.
01:04:51	Kumiko snuggled up to us and sobbed.
01:04:57	We reconciled.
01:05:02	Eat all you want.
01:05:07	Sorry it's not much.
01:05:09	Next time I'll get more food.
01:05:17	It'll be fun.
01:05:21	Your dad just won big on...
01:05:25	...bicycle races.
01:05:28	Awesome, Dad.
01:05:30	Great.
01:05:32	Horse racing, pachinko...
01:05:40	It's like a miracle.
01:05:43	You're so lucky.
01:05:47	So, with that money...
01:05:53	I want us to start over.
01:06:02	I won't cause you any trouble.
01:06:13	Your mother is
01:06:22	Just got kind of emotional, huh?
01:06:25	Let's eat.
01:06:31	This is a little too sweet.
01:06:48	Time's up.
01:06:51	Well...can we finish dinner?
01:06:54	Time's up.
01:06:57	You're right.
01:07:01	Time just flew by.
01:07:09	A little bit longer, Dad.
01:07:16	Really?
01:07:20	Yeah, you just got back, so...
01:07:28	Don't leave again.
01:07:30	Dad.
01:07:32	Don't go. Please stay.
01:07:35	Don't get carried away, asshole.
01:07:39	Rules are rules, you fuck.
01:07:49	Let's get out of here.
01:07:56	Get up.
01:07:59	Get the fuck up.
01:08:03	Wanna stay here forever?
01:08:22	"Yuka? By now, you know what we do?"
01:08:29	"It's called 'family rental.' You know it?"
01:08:34	That...that was fun. Very fun.
01:08:36	"Kumiko, born in a coin locker,"
01:08:38	"has her 25th birthday is coming up,
01:08:43	"...which family to celebrate with. "
01:08:50	1 year later
01:08:52	In Tokyo, I was waiting for her.
01:08:57	Kumiko, a. k. a. Ueno Station 54.
01:09:09	Excuse me.
01:09:12	I'd like to talk to you about something.
01:09:16	An ordinary girl.
01:09:18	If you have any questions about
01:09:24	What?
01:09:25	I can't explain anything
01:09:37	You can't run away from me.
01:09:40	"Your support. Personnel placement.
01:09:43	I'll get you.
01:09:57	"...24 Dead..."
01:09:58	"...Mass Suicide..."
01:10:12	They're late.
01:10:17	Are they here?
01:10:21	Who?
01:10:32	That guy?
01:10:37	Him?
01:10:43	No.
01:10:49	Be cool, be cool, be cool...
01:11:04	They're not here yet.
01:11:15	Mr. Shimabara?
01:11:18	Yes.
01:11:19	What do you wanna know?
01:11:21	What?
01:11:23	I wanna know the truth.
01:11:35	Be cool, be cool...
01:11:45	Are you connected to you, Tetsuzo?
01:11:49	What?
01:11:51	Are you connected to yourself?
01:11:58	Yes. That's why I'm here.
01:12:02	I know all about you.
01:12:07	Good for you.
01:12:13	Is this Suicide Club's headquarters?
01:12:16	Suicide Club? No such thing.
01:12:23	There are theories of
01:12:25	of cult groups
01:12:27	...and the apocalypse,
01:12:31	Suicide Club this, Suicide Club that.
01:12:35	It's even in the media.
01:12:40	Don't pretend like you don't know.
01:12:43	But it seems like they've forgotten
01:12:51	54 people died there.
01:13:00	People forget everything.
01:13:04	There is no Suicide Club. It's all a
01:13:06	Be cool, be cool...
01:13:13	Even strongly put...
01:13:16	- Be strong. - ...it's more of a
01:13:24	A circle?
01:13:26	Anyway, imagine that the Sun Goddess
01:13:36	The collapse of civilization began
01:14:08	Ueno Station, locker #54.
01:14:13	She runs a family-rental business
01:14:16	She runs a family-rental
01:14:18	"Three-Day-Old Coin
01:14:20	When requested, they go spend time
01:14:26	...and pretend
01:14:32	Sometimes for 10 years or 2O years.
01:14:38	What is he saying?
01:14:43	She has many companies, including
01:14:48	Do you understand?
01:14:53	What about the Suicide Club?
01:14:54	What about it?
01:14:58	It's the result of
01:15:05	What Kumiko wanted was...
01:15:09	...to live a normal life
01:15:16	So she acted like a normal girl
01:15:22	But that wasn't enough.
01:15:29	She wanted to turn
01:15:34	There's nothing more to tell you.
01:15:39	What?
01:15:40	I told you everything.
01:15:44	Now, everyone else is starting to realize
01:15:52	Don't you know?
01:15:56	Be cool, be cool...
01:16:06	You tried so hard to figure us out.
01:16:14	I know all about you.
01:16:20	You used to be a reporter.
01:16:27	I want my daughters back.
01:16:29	"Missing"
01:16:31	I want my daughters back.
01:16:32	"Searching for Lost Puppies"
01:16:38	It's time for you to wake up to your role.
01:16:44	Who are you?
01:16:46	You said you were connected
01:16:51	You're not believable
01:16:58	The world is full of lies that people
01:17:03	They fail as husbands, wives,
01:17:10	So, the only way to figure out
01:17:14	...is to lie openly
01:17:20	Feel the desert.
01:17:26	Survive the desert.
01:17:45	That night, I had a strange dream.
01:17:49	The desert.
01:17:56	I was in their hideout.
01:18:00	Was this really their hideout?
01:18:04	I sensed Noriko and Yuka were here.
01:18:08	I knew they were alive.
01:18:14	I felt their presence profoundly.
01:18:20	Noriko...her voice...
01:18:23	Yuka...5 years old...running into
01:18:31	They were alive.
01:18:33	Why did Noriko run away from home
01:18:40	Tetsuzo, what's your connection
01:18:47	To yourself?
01:18:54	Yuka.
01:19:07	Noriko.
01:19:21	I heard that guy's voice.
01:19:32	I had to go on and find them.
01:19:39	I woke up.
01:19:43	TETSUZO
01:20:33	Hello?
01:20:35	Tetsu? It's me.
01:20:38	I'm almost there.
01:20:43	What story are you working on?
01:20:47	I'll tell you later.
01:20:50	OK. I'll see you shortly.
01:21:02	What would I say to Yuka?
01:21:06	What was she thinking
01:21:08	Even if I was there,
01:21:18	She disappeared the next day...
01:21:21	It wasn't just some kind of
01:21:24	She was clearly expressing anger at me.
01:21:29	Immediately quitting my
01:21:31	...the day after Yuka ran away...
01:21:34	I didn't do that.
01:21:39	I went to work like nothing happened,
01:21:47	Is it OK like this?
01:21:52	That's fine.
01:21:53	Now, about the new
01:21:58	The following day, our top story was
01:22:06	It was 2 months later
01:22:13	Because my wife killed herself.
01:22:20	Can I take a picture?
01:22:24	I thought Yuka would be shocked.
01:22:26	I was an even worse father
01:22:31	I chose my career over my family.
01:22:34	Would you like to
01:22:35	I chose my career
01:22:37	I took pride in my work because
01:22:56	In Toyokawa, The blue sky, the ocean,
01:23:06	It was the perfect town.
01:23:10	I wrote pastoral fluff pieces for the paper,
01:23:21	We all lived in this perfect town.
01:23:27	My daughters were residents of Toyokawa.
01:23:36	Point at that thing.
01:23:39	Look at Daddy.
01:23:41	Let's take a picture.
01:23:43	Picture time.
01:23:45	Come on, Noriko.
01:23:48	Right there.
01:23:51	Point at that thing.
01:23:54	Ready?
01:24:01	Impressive.
01:24:08	Come take a look at this.
01:24:12	Noriko, Yuka, come on.
01:24:17	Look.
01:24:20	A happy family.
01:24:24	When my wife did a painting
01:24:29	I failed to notice
01:24:35	Yuka wrote "All he understood was that
01:24:45	When I read that, I cried.
01:25:19	Fuck this.
01:25:21	A bunch of crap.
01:25:31	I had all these notes
01:25:48	Fuck all this.
01:25:53	A month later...
01:25:58	My wife died.
01:26:02	She was tired.
01:26:04	Taeko.
01:26:12	I read the notes repeatedly.
01:26:17	Even though Yuka saw right through me...
01:26:22	Yuka could simulate me,
01:26:24	but I couldn't simulate my
01:26:30	...or my wife's.
01:26:41	Right here.
01:26:50	Here.
01:27:01	I'm so sorry.
01:27:04	It's all my fault.
01:27:08	Had I been a good mother,
01:27:11	What?
01:27:15	It's not your fault.
01:27:40	Taeko.
01:27:49	What are you still doing up?
01:28:01	Taeko?
01:28:04	Hey, Taeko?
01:28:15	Hey...
01:28:37	While I had my eyes averted from
01:28:44	...my two daughters disappeared
01:28:53	Taeko!
01:29:09	Calm down.
01:29:28	It's all right.
01:29:35	No red balloons.
01:29:39	I would've done
01:29:41	...if they'd promised
01:29:49	Tetsu.
01:29:57	How you been?
01:29:58	Hey. This way.
01:30:00	What's the hurry?
01:30:03	Sit.
01:30:08	You know the Suicide Club?
01:30:12	I started talking right away.
01:30:15	A summary of my life in 30 sec.
01:30:20	This is my daughter.
01:30:22	I then explained why I was in Tokyo.
01:30:25	I then handed him my notes,
01:30:31	...to finish what I had started,
01:30:39	I don't understand.
01:30:45	Things have changed.
01:30:49	After today,
01:30:54	You're the only one I can trust
01:31:00	What exactly do you want me to do?
01:31:04	If you disappear, then what?
01:31:07	Suppose this Suicide Club exists.
01:31:14	You'll know what to do.
01:31:20	I'm gonna go now.
01:31:24	She'll be here in a minute.
01:31:32	This is the scenario
01:31:37	They'll play your daughters.
01:31:44	Kumiko will play your wife, Taeko.
01:31:49	Noriko and Yuka will be called...
01:31:52	...Mitsuko and Yoko, respectively.
01:31:59	Anyway, I have to go.
01:32:47	Yeah?
01:33:00	You called us?
01:33:02	Yes.
01:33:04	We appreciate your business.
01:33:08	Come on in.
01:33:10	Thanks.
01:33:15	Please sit.
01:33:17	So, let's talk.
01:33:21	You want to be the father, correct?
01:33:24	Yes.
01:33:26	You want a wife and two daughters?
01:33:30	Yes.
01:33:33	Look through this photo album
01:33:49	I like this girl.
01:33:56	The older sister will be Mitsuko.
01:34:08	And my wife...
01:34:26	Hey, Sis.
01:34:30	Sis?
01:34:35	Mitsuko doesn't need to act right now.
01:34:41	No acting when you have no role.
01:34:44	I was embarrassed. I knew she
01:34:51	I needed more practice.
01:34:56	You need more practice.
01:35:01	You're Yoko.
01:35:05	Not Yuka, not Noriko.
01:35:09	Forget that.
01:35:29	Memorize this address.
01:35:34	Stores, banks, cigarette machines...
01:35:43	He wants to act like he's been
01:35:47	So we have to act like
01:35:56	He wants us to be
01:36:02	I'm his wife.
01:36:07	This time you're sisters.
01:36:22	This guy is your father.
01:36:25	They stared at the photograph,
01:36:30	They imagined being his daughters.
01:36:34	...doing that made the father's face
01:36:38	I look at the customer's face.
01:36:43	But to make sure it wasn't
01:36:51	That guy I met - Tetsuzo.
01:36:58	I knew for sure he was behind this.
01:37:04	Tetsuzo Shimabara.
01:37:14	Mitsuko.
01:37:17	Yes?
01:37:20	Do you still have the coat you were
01:37:28	Yeah.
01:37:31	You have it now?
01:37:37	Yeah.
01:37:40	Can I see it?
01:37:48	Sure.
01:37:56	I remember this.
01:38:00	Can you put it on?
01:38:04	Okay.
01:38:16	Can you imitate Noriko with this?
01:38:32	I want you to wear it today, Mitsuko.
01:38:40	Former sisters...
01:38:43	He's not a regular client.
01:38:48	Be careful.
01:38:51	They weren't ready for this.
01:38:56	Often times, people came to us
01:39:05	Business card.
01:39:06	5 years ago, I met someone who
01:39:11	She begged for a chance to fix
01:39:18	Sayuri Yoshida?
01:39:24	What's that?
01:39:29	You read my letter?
01:39:32	Yeah.
01:39:37	I read it, Mom.
01:39:40	I called her Mom.
01:39:42	Thank you.
01:39:45	Mom.
01:39:49	Once again.
01:39:51	Slowly.
01:39:53	Mom.
01:39:55	Mitsuko.
01:39:57	I don't know that name.
01:40:01	You know how much I missed you?
01:40:04	I'm sorry, Mitsuko.
01:40:06	Who's Mitsuko?
01:40:09	I always think about you.
01:40:14	Thank you, Mitsuko.
01:40:20	Where's Dad?
01:40:25	We're back together now.
01:40:36	And? You suck at acting.
01:40:40	What do you mean?
01:40:41	You want me to play the mother's role?
01:40:47	Now you listen to me.
01:40:52	If you want, I can play your mother,
01:41:04	A locker is my mother.
01:41:08	I told her a locker was my mother.
01:41:13	The woman cried and screamed,
01:41:22	You' re so cruel!
01:41:23	- I' m cruel?
01:41:26	Even if she was my real mother,
01:41:31	Express more suffering.
01:41:32	Express more suffering.
01:41:34	Just an amateur actress.
01:41:38	She couldn't play it well.
01:41:40	So easy. Crying is the easiest
01:41:42	I thought about showing her
01:41:53	I want to start over.
01:41:57	Would Tetsuzo say that too?
01:41:59	Practice with us.
01:42:03	I'll do anything.
01:42:13	She says she'll practice
01:42:18	Sayuri.
01:42:20	I'll do anything.
01:42:30	Take her.
01:42:42	Wait.
01:42:43	Bring along your man.
01:42:50	He's here now.
01:42:55	Where?
01:43:03	Mitsuko.
01:43:06	Take him too.
01:43:09	Their daughter was
01:43:25	Mitsuko...
01:43:34	A few years later,
01:43:49	If you do a good job tonight,
01:43:58	OK.
01:44:00	Mitsuko?
01:44:03	OK.
01:44:07	But remember, you're not real sisters.
01:44:13	The guy will play your father.
01:44:17	Don't let him confuse you.
01:44:22	OK?
01:44:34	"8:29 PM"
01:44:35	I had all the lights on.
01:44:40	I heard a car stop outside.
01:44:45	It was a gamble.
01:44:49	They're here.
01:44:54	What did I want?
01:44:57	To regain my pride and dignity?
01:45:01	No, I just wanted to show them
01:45:09	This was a party.
01:45:11	A surprise party.
01:45:16	I grasped my wife's knife
01:45:21	I suddenly regretted my whole life.
01:45:23	For some reason as I felt that regret,
01:45:30	How was Hokkaido?
01:45:45	We're home.
01:45:48	I had looked for a house
01:45:57	This one's very similar.
01:46:03	You're right.
01:46:04	- Can we go look at it now?
01:46:08	Thanks.
01:46:09	Here.
01:46:10	Great.
01:46:12	I think it meets your criteria.
01:46:17	Can we go inside?
01:46:19	Sure.
01:46:21	Be careful.
01:46:26	I transported everything.
01:46:29	Furniture, Noriko's stuff, Yuka's stuff...
01:46:39	Everything.
01:47:02	We're home.
01:47:05	I'm exhausted.
01:47:07	Welcome home.
01:47:09	Hi, Dad.
01:47:11	I'm so tired.
01:47:17	I missed you.
01:47:25	Noriko and Yuka carried
01:47:38	It was the first time in 2 years
01:47:44	My heart was beating.
01:48:29	Mitsuko, Yoko...
01:48:32	Something wrong?
01:48:45	"How was Hokkaido?"
01:48:51	I humored him.
01:48:53	Mitsuko, smiling,
01:49:00	I missed you.
01:49:02	I missed you too.
01:49:06	It wasn't the same without you.
01:49:10	Corny acting. Was this what their
01:49:18	But I was lonely and desperate too.
01:49:25	I've prepared sukiyaki for you.
01:49:29	Wonderful.
01:49:32	Oh, no.
01:49:33	What?
01:49:35	Taeko, come here.
01:49:38	What?
01:49:40	Problem?
01:49:47	What's the matter?
01:49:50	I forgot to buy meat.
01:49:57	What was I thinking?
01:49:59	You're just tired.
01:50:03	I'll go buy it.
01:50:06	But you just got back.
01:50:08	It's OK. I'll be right back.
01:50:11	Get me 3 packs of Cherry Cigarettes, too.
01:50:16	OK.
01:50:16	I needed to buy time.
01:50:20	Cherry Cigarettes were hard to find.
01:50:26	Kumiko was gone.
01:50:29	I heard the door shut.
01:50:34	Vegetables, shirataki noodles...
01:50:41	Ikeda went back to the room.
01:50:51	Put your bags in your room.
01:51:32	Sis?
01:51:35	Yeah?
01:51:40	Been a long day, huh?
01:51:45	Yeah.
01:51:51	Just like old times, isn't it?
01:51:55	Come downstairs.
01:51:57	Hurry.
01:51:59	OK.
01:52:19	I didn't have much time.
01:52:24	I had to act efficiently.
01:52:27	My daughters were smiling.
01:52:30	They looked so lovely.
01:52:38	I had made up my past
01:52:41	...in the back of a cold
01:52:46	But in reality
01:52:49	Soft and fragile,
01:52:55	An outline...
01:53:02	I wanted to make him a solid father.
01:53:08	It wasn't long ago that
01:53:12	Phone for you.
01:53:15	How may I help you?
01:53:19	What?
01:53:20	He wants to kill me.
01:53:21	You're gonna die?
01:53:23	Maybe. Could you leave?
01:53:26	Cheerfully, Broken Dam delivered
01:53:30	Cheerfully, Broken Dam delivered
01:53:33	I took psychology.
01:53:35	In class, a bully and
01:53:40	...and the bully felt the victim's
01:53:45	He what?
01:53:47	He wept.
01:53:48	- Sorry I'm late.
01:53:52	The bully learned his lesson
01:54:01	So, someone has to play
01:54:10	Everyone wants to be champagne,
01:54:20	But the world needs glasses and vases.
01:54:26	Like a master/servant relationship.
01:54:32	- What's capitalism?
01:54:35	Lovers, spouses, family members...
01:54:40	We all need to reverse roles and...
01:54:44	...figure out what each of us
01:54:52	Survival of the fittest?
01:54:57	So cute.
01:54:59	We need rabbits.
01:55:03	Rabbits and lions can't switch places,
01:55:10	Some will kill.
01:55:16	That's the circle of life,
01:55:21	Just like the numbers after
01:55:26	real circles can never be perfect.
01:55:30	But if you draw a circle with
01:55:37	...a thick outline will
01:55:44	I'll give you a sense
01:55:48	You can be a lion.
01:55:54	I don't need thick outlines.
01:55:58	My metal box is starting to rot.
01:56:01	I'm gonna go to a higher level.
01:56:06	A rabbit, a suicide, a killer, evil,
01:56:13	I'll be whatever no one else wants to be.
01:56:17	I'm sick of shameless outlines of
01:56:22	They don't wanna be rabbits.
01:56:26	There's no such jungle.
01:56:29	While our club expanded...
01:56:33	Broken Dam, Cripple #5,
01:56:40	Some killed themselves.
01:56:45	Broken Dam went
01:56:47	...who hated his Wife in
01:56:52	Red carpet in the hall.
01:56:54	I'll turn it on.
01:56:56	You know what song he requested?
01:57:01	- Some SMAP song?
01:57:03	What?
01:57:04	Hint? Think, a geyser of blood.
01:57:08	What?
01:57:10	Blood won't be noticeable here.
01:57:14	- I got it. "Wine-Red Heart"?
01:57:18	Just turn on the radio in 3O sec.
01:57:21	OK.
01:57:26	Why weren't you with me that day?
01:57:29	I'm sorry, sweetheart.
01:57:30	- "Bright Red Sun"?
01:57:37	Forgive me.
01:57:39	Why did you go see him?
01:57:44	I'm sorry I betrayed your trust.
01:57:46	I'm sorry I betrayed your trust.
01:57:47	...beautiful song, isn't it?
01:57:50	This next song is a request from
01:57:55	It's called "Blossom of a Red Rose. "
01:57:59	"Blossom of a Red Rose. "
01:58:02	It's your favorite.
01:58:04	- It's your favorite. Let's sing.
01:58:06	# "A rose has bloomed, a rose
01:58:09	...a rose has bloomed...
01:58:12	...a rose has bloomed...
01:58:13	"In my lonely garden a rose has bloomed"
01:58:19	...in my lonely garden...
01:58:26	...one tiny rose...
01:58:35	...in my lonely garden...
01:58:45	...rose... little rose...
01:58:54	...bloom just...
01:58:57	"A rose has bloomed, a rose has bloomed,
01:59:04	"My lonely garden
01:59:17	Here. Thank you.
01:59:23	Thanks.
01:59:28	A look of satisfaction on his big fat
01:59:31	"The rose lost its petals so suddenly"
01:59:33	A look of satisfaction on his big
01:59:37	Broken Dam said over and over.
01:59:42	"My garden is lonely as it was before"
01:59:43	"You deserve this,
01:59:46	"My garden's rose has
01:59:49	The man stabbed her repeatedly.
01:59:52	"My garden's rose has lost its petal but"
01:59:53	Broken Dam played her role
01:59:58	"A rose has bloomed in my lonely heart"
02:00:03	Did she really die?
02:00:06	Yeah.
02:00:07	Alright!
02:00:09	You're next.
02:00:10	"Oh rose, rose, rose of my heart"
02:00:12	I'll do my best.
02:00:14	"Forever blooming there"
02:01:05	Cripple #5, Long Neck, and Midnight...
02:01:06	"Forever blooming there"
02:01:11	...jumped off the platform.
02:01:14	I made Mitsuko witness it.
02:01:19	I wanted her to undertake a task
02:01:25	She was still seeking happiness.
02:01:32	But I knew she'd transcend it.
02:02:09	After I finished shopping,
02:02:22	THE KNIFE IN MY P0CKET
02:02:35	What?
02:02:39	Are you 0K, Dad?
02:02:49	Something wrong, Dad?
02:02:52	They kept saying "Dad."
02:02:54	Was that how they pleased
02:02:59	There's someone I want you to meet.
02:03:07	Who?
02:03:08	This is fun.
02:03:15	Come on out, Tetsu.
02:03:23	Tetsu.
02:03:26	Now.
02:03:59	Hello.
02:04:07	He has wanted to see you.
02:04:14	Sit down.
02:04:20	We're not gonna wait for the meat.
02:04:25	Come on.
02:04:27	Introduce yourself.
02:04:30	You want me to introduce you?
02:04:38	Do something.
02:04:40	You're their father.
02:04:54	What are you doing?
02:04:59	What's this guy's problem?
02:05:04	Hey, stranger.
02:05:10	Stranger?
02:05:12	This is Yoko. You don't know?
02:05:20	By the way, stranger...
02:05:23	I'll tell you my name.
02:05:30	Can you remember that?
02:05:34	I'm Mitsuko.
02:05:47	I want to start over.
02:05:50	Noriko.
02:05:52	Yuka.
02:05:55	I'm your dad. Your father.
02:06:01	I'm out of here.
02:06:05	Noriko, Yuka.
02:06:20	Time's up.
02:06:22	Let's go.
02:06:24	It hasn't been an hour yet.
02:06:26	Who are you?
02:06:29	I thought you were my father.
02:06:35	Take this guy and leave.
02:06:37	Now, Yuka, call him "Dad. "
02:06:49	I'm back.
02:06:56	Hey, I'm back.
02:07:03	What?
02:07:04	Stop.
02:07:05	You're hurting me.
02:07:36	Stay out of this.
02:07:47	What is this, sweetheart?
02:07:52	Stop this stupid act.
02:07:57	What?
02:08:00	Stop this stupid act.
02:08:05	I'm the customer here.
02:08:10	Customer?
02:08:14	Sometimes, I would forget
02:08:18	Sweetheart?
02:08:20	No, I'm Ikeda.
02:08:35	You come with me.
02:08:39	Get up.
02:09:14	Stranger...
02:09:21	Get out of here.
02:09:43	Noriko...
02:09:47	Noriko...
02:09:49	I'm Mitsuko.
02:09:53	I'm Mitsuko.
02:10:12	Noriko.
02:10:14	I'm Mitsuko.
02:11:04	I felt like I was back in 2002,
02:11:13	I tore off a thread that was
02:11:19	54 girls lined up on the platform
02:11:24	Open a window. I needed some air.
02:11:31	I walked past the stranger
02:11:37	I opened the window.
02:11:43	It was snowing.
02:11:45	Saliva started to flow in my mouth.
02:11:53	It might have been drool. Cold drool.
02:11:57	I couldn't breathe,
02:12:02	Drool dripped on the floor.
02:12:06	The table, reflected in the window,
02:12:22	Guys from our circle were beating up the
02:12:57	I crouched down and
02:13:07	I was drooling,
02:13:16	Soon, everything turned white.
02:13:22	It felt like there was sand everywhere.
02:13:30	But I wasn't in the desert. I was in some
02:13:40	And I was talking to Tangerine.
02:13:44	Tangerine, Tangerine... Round,
02:13:48	...was standing in the snow.
02:13:51	What's up, Norippe?
02:13:57	Boys are trouble...
02:14:01	I remembered that we used to
02:14:10	Recognize my uniform, Norippe?
02:14:14	That's the school I go to now.
02:14:18	It was a snowy night,
02:14:23	I still love tangerines.
02:14:30	Tangerines.
02:14:37	Yuka was crying.
02:15:22	Mitsuko. Yoko.
02:15:27	Mom.
02:15:28	I got some meat.
02:15:32	What happened?
02:15:37	Let's eat.
02:15:41	Can you go get the portable stove
02:15:47	So cold today.
02:15:49	I know.
02:15:51	Can you close the window?
02:15:56	Also, can you go get the pan?
02:16:01	My hands are numb.
02:16:07	What?
02:16:08	It doesn't work, Mom.
02:16:13	Where are extra gas cartridges?
02:16:18	He'll find them.
02:16:21	- Don't put it on the stove.
02:16:24	It's out of gas.
02:16:25	I'll put it here for now.
02:16:30	- I'm so hungry.
02:16:33	Do we have extra cartridges?
02:16:56	Sweetheart, you wanted us
02:17:04	Didn't you?
02:17:12	Please.
02:17:19	Kill me.
02:17:23	Who's this man?
02:17:26	He's your father, silly.
02:17:29	Noriko, your father's looking for
02:17:34	Noriko?
02:17:36	Kill me now.
02:17:41	Just kill me.
02:17:47	No, I'm not Noriko.
02:17:58	Don't make a face, Noriko.
02:18:03	No.
02:18:06	You're a girl.
02:18:07	I'm not Noriko.
02:18:12	Girls shouldn't do that.
02:18:15	No.
02:18:16	Dear, don't you agree?
02:18:18	Mom, I'm Mitsuko.
02:18:23	We wanna avoid pain.
02:18:27	We just wanna avoid pain, right?
02:18:35	You, me...
02:18:39	We just wanna avoid pain, right?
02:18:44	We all just wanna avoid pain.
02:19:04	It's time to go, but...
02:19:14	Are we going?
02:19:19	Or staying?
02:19:25	What do you wanna do, sir?
02:19:39	I'm so tired.
02:19:42	Right, sir?
02:19:50	Sir?
02:20:01	Do you want more time?
02:20:17	I think...
02:20:23	Can I say what I think?
02:20:32	Is it OK, Mitsuko?
02:20:48	You all look like lions to me.
02:20:58	You all look like lions.
02:21:20	Let's be rabbits again.
02:21:30	Let's be rabbits again, OK?
02:21:45	I want to extend this session.
02:22:02	Let's extend it.
02:22:22	Mm, this is good.
02:22:34	Ow, hot!
02:22:37	Home-cooked meals are the best.
02:22:40	You have to eat vegetables too.
02:22:44	Get me some meat, Mom.
02:22:49	- Get it yourself.
02:22:53	I gave you vegetables, too.
02:22:56	- Want some meat, Dad?
02:23:02	It's delicious.
02:23:07	Tea?
02:23:09	Refill, please.
02:23:12	- Here. Yuka, you want tea?
02:23:14	Honey, excuse me. Oh, watch out!
02:23:17	There is no Suicide Club.
02:23:23	Warms you up, huh?
02:23:25	I know.
02:23:29	You can eat more, right?
02:23:31	My face is burning.
02:23:34	The world is the Suicide Club, with far
02:23:42	Being close to death gives living value.
02:23:46	Only a small fraction of our
02:23:52	Not all members commit suicide?
02:23:55	It was a stupid question.
02:23:59	Only the members whose roles
02:24:06	If you saw a lion eat a zebra,
02:24:13	Lions eat zebras.
02:24:19	The circle of life.
02:24:35	- Are you eating vegetables?
02:24:39	But there's still a lot.
02:24:42	'Cause you're only eating meat Sis.
02:24:47	Sorry.
02:24:51	I want...
02:24:56	I want to start over.
02:25:09	What are you talking about?
02:25:11	Listen to me.
02:25:15	Taeko.
02:25:23	I want to redo everything. Starting now.
02:25:50	But...
02:25:54	Don't you know...
02:25:56	We're all sick and tired of
02:26:03	Dad...
02:26:07	You've always been so selfish.
02:26:11	Noriko.
02:26:13	She had never said anything
02:26:19	If she had, I probably would've hit her.
02:26:24	I'm so sorry.
02:26:27	I was wrong.
02:26:38	So let's...
02:26:44	...make a fresh start.
02:26:53	Let's die once...
02:26:58	...and come back to life.
02:27:19	I'm done.
02:27:24	It was delicious.
02:27:26	- I'm full.
02:27:28	We finished it all.
02:27:31	3 hours had passed.
02:27:33	The extension on my time was about over.
02:27:39	I was happy.
02:27:46	I wanted to shout, "Happy!"
02:27:51	My dad...my sister...
02:27:56	...and Kumiko as my mother.
02:28:07	Happy!
02:28:11	I reminisced about...
02:28:15	...the stuffed animal attached to
02:28:22	...memories...in rapid succession...
02:28:31	After dinner, my sister and l
02:28:39	Sis.
02:28:40	Do you remember,
02:28:42	...when he was discovered
02:28:45	We talked about our past...
02:28:52	Yeah, I remember.
02:28:59	I couldn't tell if this woman
02:29:04	but she was laughing
02:29:11	You must be tired.
02:29:13	You must be too.
02:29:17	Mom, Dad.
02:29:21	I wanted the power to go out
02:29:28	But the whole house remained
02:29:37	I'm a little dizzy from the heat.
02:29:42	Gotta get up early tomorrow, right?
02:29:45	- Gotta get some sleep.
02:29:50	G'night.
02:29:51	Good night.
02:30:02	I wanted to thank my father
02:30:12	That night, I thought I could
02:30:19	She had always said...
02:30:24	"Gotta go somewhere different.
02:30:30	I had laughed at her.
02:30:34	But I finally understood her.
02:30:46	I watched her sleep
02:30:53	She was moaning in her sleep.
02:30:59	Sounded familiar.
02:31:03	I wanted to tell her,
02:31:09	I'm sorry, Sis.
02:31:29	Then I quietly got out of bed.
02:31:35	Tiptoed down the hall.
02:31:40	Something I wanted to see.
02:31:49	Grinding his teeth...
02:31:55	Thank you, Dad.
02:32:39	While I was putting on my shoes,
02:32:45	I held it in.
02:33:06	I opened the door and went outside.
02:33:14	6 AM. It was still dark.
02:33:19	I took a deep breath.
02:34:16	I started to walk down the street
02:34:22	I wanted to go somewhere
02:34:30	I sneezed.
02:34:36	I'm walking for the first time.
02:34:44	I was through with Yoko.
02:34:50	Just some nameless girl.
02:35:51	Your heart is a small glass.
02:35:59	...tears will spill out.
02:36:04	Goodbye, Yuka.
02:36:09	Goodbye, my adolescence.
02:36:13	Goodbye, Haikyo. com.
02:36:17	Goodbye, Mitsuko.
02:36:24	I am Noriko.
