01x09 - Grandpa and Grandma and a Summer Festival

[bunniefuu]

So this is the popular movie

among Mino's generation, Dasako?

Horror movies these days

have really good techniques.

But ghosts coming out of the TV

sure are a bit overstretched, eh?

Grandma?

Namu Amida Butsu

Bussetsu maka han'nya haramita shingyo,

kanjizai bosatsu gyoujin han'nya hara

Kuusoku zeshiki juso

gyoshiki yakubu nyoze

Grandma

Are ya scared?

No way!

Good night, Grandpa.

Namu Amida Butsu

My left arm feels a bit numb

I wonder why

Yer imaginin' things.

A STORY ABOUT A GRANDPA AND GRANDMA

WHO RETURNED BACK TO THEIR YOUTH

GRANDPA AND GRANDMA AND SUMMER FESTIVAL

GRANDPA AND GRANDMA AND SUMMER FESTIVAL

Oh? What are you doing?

Mino! Ya know Mr. Takahashi

from the other day?

We got apple seeds from him.

Oh, the one who turned young again?

It's kinda too late to grow

an apple tree now, though.

Maintainin' one is already troublesome

Still, we can't just throw away a gift.

What do you want to become

after you graduate high school?

Hey, Grandpa.

Could you give me some too?

Huh?

You want the seeds?

Yeah! It's my birthday next week, right?

I thought I'd love

to plant one to commemorate.

Ya wanna plant one?

An apple tree can survive

as long as a human!

It'll be hard to maintain it!

I know that much!

Sure, it's a pain to look after it,

but to have a tree

that grows together with me

It just feels awesome.

I've started thinking about

my future these days

I actually thought maybe

farming wouldn't be so bad.

That''s why I want to start

learning it as a skill now.

Mino

I still haven't said

I'd continue your farm, though.

It's just

The person I admire is chasing

after his dream so seriously

So I thought I'd be lame

if I wasn't as well.

ACHOO

TOMORROW? SURE, I'M FREE

Tomorrow? Sure, I'm free

TOMORROW? SURE, I'M FREE

Thanks, Shota.

You really helped me out.

It's nothing.

I guess this tree will still live

even if we grow old, right?

Maybe

By then, all the kids will be gone,

and so will the primary schools

around here

Maybe even all

the people here as well

That'd be lonely

Speaking of which,

Grandpa and Grandma

They also planted an apple tree

to commemorate their wedding.

So this means

Saito.

I still don't know about the future,

but when we grow up,

can I come here again?

Well, I bet you'll be married and have

already moved out of here by then

I'm waiting

Huh?

I'll be waiting!

Hey, Grandpa.

Can we have red rice for dinner?

Let's have some herring roe

and konbu rolls as well!

WAS THAT A CONFESSION?!

WAS THAT A CONFESSION?!

Was that a confession?!

WAS THAT A CONFESSION?!

A FEW YEARS AGO

Say, Grandpa

Could you ask if we can have another

festival-eve vigil like in the past?

That's nice.

The god here would be happy too.

I hope we can have

a fun festival like in the past.

Yeah.

I'll go ask the town

council president next time.

Sometimes, the god wants

to come down here,

and enjoy a pint with us.

COTTON CANDY - sh**ting RANGE

You had a yukata like this, Grandma?

This is really cute!

Akemi used to wear that.

What about you?

Nah, I'll go with my usual clothes.

What? But you'll look good in this

I'm happy she's going so far for me

POU

But this doesn't sit right with me

Hey, Mom.

Do you have any spare yukata?

Grandma, you're so cute!

Err, today sure is hot, Grandpa.

Come here!

Wait up!

Come on!

Sorry, Prez.

I should be

Come on, have another sip!

To Grandpa, social interactions are important.

I'm sure

he must be drinking late tonight.

I'll just suck it up for him.

My happiness can wait.

I'd be fine with such a way of living

or at least I should've

been convinced to.

Unbecoming to one's age,

my chest feels so stiff about this.

I'm not young anymore

I shouldn't let it be seen on my face.

Grandma!

Grandpa!

It's still 8 PM, and Shozo's already off.

I wish I could hear more of

his stories about turning young again.

Take a hint, you two.

Booze, tears, men, and women.

Which one would you pick?

Booze!

No wonder the young'uns are leavin'.

Grandpa, want the strawberry candy?

No, no! Not really!

I'm happy with us

just walkin' like this.

Is that so?

One cannot afford to be extravagant

Any desire is an evil one

Our old men had been drilling

that to us during the Showa period

Grandma, want to eat a candy?

Nah, I already had a cotton candy,

so I'll pass.

Ya love strawberries, don'tcha?

I don't hate it.

You eat candies sometimes too, right?

I eat salt candy to prevent heat stroke.

We already ate salty fried noodles,

so how about something sweet this time?

Well, I suppose I could.

Besides

For one strawberry

to be made into a candy,

500 yen is a bit too much.

I can make that one.

We don't have to buy it here.

But

If you really insist I eat this

Sure, sure.

Grandpa, you like takoyaki, eh?

SPECIAL

SPECIAL

If they still have some, I'll eat it all.

Whaddaya mean with that?

BELLYBELT BEA

Too close.

You've got good skills.

I want that bear

since it looks like Grandpa

Sorry, Miss.

With that g*n's power,

you can't take down all the prizes

on the upper shelf.

I adjusted the prizes based on their weight

from years of experience.

If you don't sh**t it

multiple times at once, you can't.

Grandma, I'll go back you up,

so feel free to sh**t anytime.

G-Got it.

This guy's bad news!

He's for real!

All two shots landed at once?!

I matched her timing

and pulled the trigger

at the same time.

Wait!!

Yer so amazin', Grandpa.

That's the veteran

of the former hunting club for ya.

Grandma, wanna sit down and take a break?

Yeah, let's do that.

Hey, look! What is that?

So cute!

Just like a baby!

- Give me that!

- Bellybelt bear.

- Give me that!

- Bellybelt bear.

- No!

- Popular among high school girls.

- No!

- Popular among high school girls.

- Give me that!

- Popular among high school girls.

- No!

- No!

- Give me that!

Either one of the two people

who love each other will die first.

One will surely pass away,

leaving the other behind.

The one left behind

While being crushed by loneliness,

they live their remaining lives.

It is unavoidable

for those with partners.

We are informing your remaining life span.

The amount of days you have:

XXX days left.

Ya okay, Grandma?

JOSHOKU SHRINE

Ya okay, Grandma?

JOSHOKU SHRINE

JOSHOKU SHRINE

Ya okay, Grandma?

What's wrong? Ya look pale.

I'm fine.

It's nothing.

I didn't think my amount of sand

was the same as Grandpa's,

but alas, reality is so cruel

Grandma.

Did you hear a voice in your dream?

I knew it. Actually

I also heard that voice.

I'll be fine for this year, apparently.

If you don't want to say it,

you don't have to.

How much time

do you have left?

Grandpa, listen to me carefully.

The amount of time I have left

is seven days, apparently.

I see

Is that so

I can tell.

The feeling of death lurking every day.

From about a month ago

I could already feel it.

I knew it would come someday.

I was already sick anyway,

so my being here is already a miracle.

I thought I'd prepared for this

But any miracle will end eventually.

Even so, I

It's only a matter of time

I wish for a miracle to God.

That shrine is shining?

Huh? You must be seeing things.

Is this a dream?

But I'm still young,

and Grandma's here

What's happenin'?

Hello.

I am the local deity of this shrine.

Allow me to help you

with your wish.

The local deity?

Why would a god

go all the way to help us?

I want to thank you

for keeping this place clean.

Without you two,

I would've been gone now.

I don't really get it,

but can you extend Grandma's life span?!

It's not impossible.

However, I am but a deity

of a small countryside.

I can't form life out of nothing.

So, in order to give her more time,

I need to take someone else's.

If you're okay with it,

I'll help you out.

I'll keep it a secret from her.

Please!

Give it to her!

Give half of my sand to her!

Huh? Grandpa,

since when did I fall asleep?!

Morning, Grandma.

How long was I out?

Well, about 15 minutes.

I saw a weird dream earlier

A weird dream?

About the hourglass.

Sand kept comin' from somewhere

Fillin' my hourglass

I didn't hear the warning voice anymore.

So, ya can't tell how much time

you have again, eh?

Yeah.

But that's for the better, I guess.

I'll just not tell ya

how much time I have left again.

Sorry for makin' ya worry.

Yeah.

That's for the better.

If she finds out what I did

I bet she won't forgive me.

But I can't, Grandma.

I can't send you off

or have you send me off.

When the time comes,

we'll be going together.

So, until then

Let's enjoy the scenery of this world

together with our eyes.

Long time ago, around this shrine,

a loving couple lived here.

One time, famine and pestilence

caused by dry weather struck this place,

and one by one, the villagers died.

The couple offered the sacred tree water,

which was more precious than life.

However, their wish didn't come true,

and they were out cold.

A few days after, the sacred

tree produced golden fruits,

and after eating them,

they got cured,

and their hunger quenched.

Then, the power of prayers of the couple

are still flowing even now in this land.

Actually, there was famine in Tenmei era,

and descriptions about

people turning young again.

So, the stone monument behind you

- I'm going home.

- Huh?! Wait!

But we just came here!

Shiori, let's go to

the festival-eve vigil together.

I thought I'd bite, but here I am,

listening to his history yapping.

Shiori, wait!

I must be strange

I want to be like them.

I envy them.

I started thinking

like that deep inside.

Shiori!

I'll give you chocolate bananas,

so cheer up.

Huh? You hate sweet things?

I'll have it.

THERE'S SOMETHING WRONG WITH ME

THERE'S SOMETHING WRONG WITH ME

There's something wrong with me

ONE WEEK AFTER THE FESTIVAL

Grandpa, I'm still alive

You are.

Grandpa!

HUG

Grandpa!

I was scared!

Calm down, Grandma!

I thought I'd accepted my own death.

But then I imagined if I died,

and you were left alone

Then it felt like my chest

was split in two!

What was that warning in the end, huh?

You must've just seen a nightmare, Grandma.

It's not like us to change how we live

by knowing how much time we have.

Just be like usual.

That's for the best.

Even if tomorrow's our last day,

we'll live life the way we always do.
